Chapter 3 I Obey No Blood

The greater of the twin moons of Azeroth, she rose first tonight, and now she hung in the night sky, illuminating the stars with her silvery moonlight. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. biqUgE怂 info North County Abbey is serene and tranquil.

"Who!" the patrolling soldiers found something that shattered the silence.

"It's me, Corthorne!" replied Cothorne, panting, and after more than three hours of hurried walking with the priests, he finally rushed back to the monastery, and the two priests had collapsed to the ground from exhaustion. 4 wounded soldiers, 2 weak priests, it was a miracle that they could come back so quickly!

The patrol leader held a torch and lit up Corthorne's face, "Sergeant Corthorne, it's really you! What's the matter, didn't you go to Stormwind to change your guard? You're injured?"

"We've been attacked by orc forces, and I need to see Captain Paynes immediately!"

"Orcs, this can't be, how can they come here!"

"I don't have time, find someone to take care of the wounded soldiers, and inform the Brotherhood of Light by the way! Claire and Lysa felt like their lungs were going to explode, they had never run like this before. They couldn't do anything but gasp for breath. The baby in Lysa's hand was almost uncontrollable.

"You take them to the convent, and I'll take Sergeant Corthorn to the barracks!" the patrol leader knew it wasn't. Although he didn't believe that the orcs could get deep into here, something terrible must have happened, and the battle marks on Corthorne's armor couldn't be faked.

Claire and Lysa don't even know how they got back to the convent, and when they come to their senses, they have been carried to the church hall, and the patrol soldiers wake up the priest who is live broadcasting.

"Claire, Lysa. Oh, Holy Light, what's going on!" The priest on duty couldn't believe his eyes. "Didn't you go to the North County Farm to replace the deceased missionaries?"

Claire gasped for a moment before replying, "Rysa and I encountered orcs on the Northshire Farm, thanks to the Stormwind Replacement Force led by Lieutenant Cole. Otherwise, we may have returned to the embrace of the Light. Wake up all the priests and nuns, and inform Your Excellency the Bishop that we are in big trouble! Please, we don't have much time to waste! By the way, call for someone to take care of the four soldiers, who have been treated, and whose wounds have broken on the way back. And the baby, who inhaled some smoke and was frozen. ā€

"Claire, what the hell is going on! Are you kidding, how could the orcs get deep into here, they should be in the Swamp of Sorrow!"

"Ryan, this is a matter of life and death for everyone in Northshire, I'm not kidding! Lieutenant Cole's company on the front line is delaying the time of the orc army, and at least 500 orcs have entered the valley of Northshire. ā€œ

"500? Are those beasts, the Holy Light above, and the army on the front line already annihilated?!!!~Hahn!~Wake everyone up, quick!I'm going to inform Your Excellency. Take care of yourselves!" Before Claire could respond, he had already rushed upstairs. The hallway was filled with his shouting.

"Pastor Claire, they, I mean the beasts. Did you really get here?" The patrol soldiers who followed were still a little incredulous, although those orcs were strong in combat. But their numbers should not be large, and the massively assembled Stormwind soldiers are not incapable of fighting them. After all, humans are better at group combat. They didn't hear anything beforehand!

"Soldier, I'm not in the mood to make such a joke. Your Lieutenant Cole is delaying the orcs on the farm, we need to gather all our forces and get ready, so go back to the barracks. You are needed there, and I will take care of those four wounded soldiers!"

The soldier nodded, turned away without saying anything, perhaps they needed a little time to digest the news. The orcs have invaded the human kingdom, but at least they were far away from here, and now they are finally going to face these beasts!

Claire finally regained some strength, and he took the baby from Lysa's hand and handed it to the later priests, instructing them to take care of the four wounded soldiers. He needs to explain the situation to the protagonist himself.

"Don't be stunned, go and take care of the wounded soldiers, and Lysa and that baby!" is Bishop Kale. A thin old man. The wide priest's robe was a bit comical over the thin body, and the obviously messy dress showed that the bishop was not as calm as he appeared to be, but the bishop's arrival restored order to the priests. "Claire, what the hell is going on? Ryan is a little incoherent, I need you to explain it to me personally!"

"Yes, Your Excellency Bishop, Ryza and I have been sent to Northcounty Farm to take over the missionary mission, and we are accompanied by Company Cole, who went to Stormwind City to change guards at the same time. Attacked by orcs when they broke up outside the North County farm, they were about 30-40 people, and the entire farm was destroyed, only one baby survived. Claire was silent for a moment, then continued with the bishop's encouraging gaze, "We found more orcs as we prepared to return, and according to the soldiers, they had a minimum size of 500 people. Except for the four wounded soldiers and Sergeant Corthorne, Lieutenant Cole is leading the rest of the soldiers to delay the orcs!" Claire recounted as briefly as possible, and he only wanted His Excellency Bishop and Captain Paynes in the barracks to respond as quickly as possible. The Abbey must not become the next North-County Farm, that scene is unimaginable!

"Claire, I see, do you need to rest?" the bishop had some difficulty with the news, but he understood that these people would not joke about it. He had to make a decision now! At the speed of the orcs, even with the delay of Cole's company, they would be here in 1 day at most.

"No, Your Excellency, I can do it, I want to do something!" Claire didn't want to experience that feeling of powerlessness anymore!

"You're the only priest here who has ever fought the beasts with the army, and I'm sure you're indispensable. ā€œ

"I can, Bishop Cathon!" Claire couldn't watch anything happen, he had to do what he could.

"Well, Claire, I need to be prepared for the battle that is coming, and all the priests who have mastered the Light will follow you, and you will lead them. ā€

Just then, the sheriff, Captain Paynes, entered the abbey.

"Your Excellency, I think!" the captain looked around. He continued, "You should already know the situation, we don't have time to be too polite! I need all the priests who have the Light to provide healing support to the army and militia!"

Captain Paynes had the typical military vigor, or rather, recklessness. He is very strong, and his left leg looks slightly uncomfortable. With the face of a typical resolute Stormwind soldier, it can be seen that he is a veteran of war.
