Chapter 311: Night Town
Grey sky......
Grey air......
The sky above the entire night town seemed to be shrouded in dark clouds that would never dissipate, and torches and braziers had been lit before sunset, otherwise they would not be able to see clearly from twenty or thirty meters away.
What's even more interesting is that the air here seems to be filled with an ominous aura, and various energies, including arcane, are also a little abnormally active.
Varna Chenge was keenly aware of this, turned around and lowered her voice and asked, "Do you feel it?"
"Well, of course. Zhang Cheng nodded slightly, while setting his eyes on the upwind path that led to the Swamp of Sorrow.
If he remembered correctly, the culprit for such a strange situation in the Twilight Forest was neither the undead of Raven Ridge, nor the ogres or werewolves, but the home of the last guardian, Medivan, a tower called Karazhan.
It is said that a terrible curse fell after Lothar and Khadgar killed Medivan, who was controlled by the Dark Titans in Sargeras.
Since then, with Karazan as the center, it has begun to spread in all directions, and now the upwind trail has become eerie and desolate, full of rocks and strange trees, and the sound of ghosts crying can be heard from time to time.
In contrast, the Twilight Forest has been severely affected, but the land has not been completely corrupted, and some local flora and fauna can still survive.
"Well, do you want to investigate?" said Varna Morning Song with a tentative smile.
Zhang Cheng refused without thinking: "I'm sorry, I'm not interested." My mission is to clean up the undead entrenched in Raven Ridge, and the rest is none of my business. ”
Going upwind trail to investigate Karazhan?
Anyone who has no problem with their brain will not agree to such a death!
You must know that Medivan is the last guardian of the Tirisfa Council, and is also the most powerful spellcaster in Azeroth, and even has a power comparable to that of a demigod.
Not to mention the mess of monsters, such as ghosts, arcane golems, Void Dragons, Nightmares, Prince Makzar of the Burning Legion, and so on, none of which are easy to deal with.
Perhaps in the eyes of many players in the seventies, Karazan is just an entry-level team dungeon, and the difficulty is almost negligible, but in reality, in reality, there is no clear hierarchy at all, whether it is the Black Dragon Princess Onexia, or Illidan in the Dark Temple, there is not much difference in terms of danger alone.
Before gaining overwhelming power, Zhang Cheng will not touch the moldy heads of these bosses, to be exact, he doesn't even plan to get close.
"Are you sure? Maybe there are powerful magical items or even artifacts hidden behind these anomalies?" Varna Morning Song clearly didn't give up, and continued to tempt.
"Ma'am, if you are interested in this, please investigate it yourself, I have more important work, so I won't bother much. After that, Zhang Cheng didn't care about the expression on the other party's face, and strode up to meet a few strangers not far ahead.
After all, the movement of riding a griffin from the sky is not small, and the sentry sent the news to the lord as soon as he found out.
Don't think that griffons are a public vehicle that can be used casually for a few silver coins like in the game, on the contrary, without a bit of social status, ordinary people can't even touch a single hair.
In any case, the griffin is the backbone of the alliance's proud air force, and each one needs to go through strict screening and training from hatching to adulthood, and with the financial resources of the Storm Kingdom, it can barely feed three or four hundred, which shows its preciousness, and it all depends on the face of the Kenrito Council to be able to lease three this time, otherwise there is no griffin gate if you want to take it.
"Uncle, Father, Althea!" Zenobia apparently recognized each other, and rushed up to hug each other in surprise.
After a short reunion, she immediately calmed down her excitement and pulled one of the middle-aged men in a black dress to introduce, "Uncle, this is Your Excellency the mage I invited from Dalaran to solve the problem of the undead in Crow Ridge. Don't look at him young, but in fact he has the trust of Archmage Ansrem Ruinvivol. ”
"Hello, young mage, I'm Duke Elo Eberlock, and next to me are my brother Baron Carlton and daughter Althea, thank you very much for coming to help us solve the trouble of Raven Ridge. Elo Eberlock took the initiative to bend down and salute.
"You're welcome, Lord Duke, your niece has been paid enough. If nothing else, please arrange a guide for us as soon as possible, and I hope to get this done within three days. Zhang Cheng didn't talk nonsense, and made a straightforward request.
The twilight forest was covered with a gray mist, so flying over a griffin was an impossible task.
Because Crow Ridge is not like Night Town, it is lit with a lot of torches and braziers, which can be recognized from afar, and it will not take long to fly and you will get completely lost, and it is impossible to confirm the location from above, so you can only walk or ride a horse in the most traditional way.
Duke Elo Eberlock undoubtedly did not expect the young man standing in front of him to be so urgent, and he didn't even mean to say a few polite words, and immediately wanted to leave.
However, he looked up at the sky, and quickly replied with an embarrassed face: "I'm really sorry, Mr. Mage, although I admire your vigor and courage very much, but it will be dark in less than an hour, and I am afraid that no guide will be willing to follow you out of Night Town." ”
"What do you mean?" Zhang Cheng subconsciously frowned.
Once nightfall, all kinds of terrifying monsters will emerge in the twilight forest, giant spiders, wolves, ogres, and recently I heard that some bandits haunt abandoned farms in the west, and if you are unlucky, you will encounter some tigers and leopards from the Valley of Thorns, and as for the place near Raven Ridge, there are even more undead rampant, leaving the town is basically equivalent to suicide. I suggest you better rest for the night and wait until dawn tomorrow before you hit the road. Dressed in black scale armor, Althea gave an explanation.
"That's all?!" Zhang Cheng raised his head expressionlessly and looked at the other party, with a faint disdain in his tone.
Maybe for ordinary people, these beasts and monsters are indeed a bit dangerous, but in the eyes of elite mages, they are not even a fart.
On top of that, he didn't plan to waste too much time here, and then he had to go south to the Valley of Thorns.
Damn! What a nasty guy!
Althea cursed silently in her heart, turned around and exchanged colors with her father, and finally sighed helplessly: "Alas, well, since you insist, I will arrange ......"
