Chapter 158: The Legend of the Werewolf
"Was this the case before?"
Sakin asks the Forsaken Guide, but both soldiers shake their heads and say otherwise, much to Sagin's concern.
Instead of following the village, Lexa and Misha stood guard at the entrance to the village to guard against possible dangers in the fog.
"Lord Sakin, this village used to be infested with wild beasts, and there were always casualties among the villagers, but since the fog sealed off the outside, those beasts have never attacked this place again."
The Forsaken soldiers reported what they knew to Sakin, and they had taken the troll for the commander of the Undercity.
"In that case, it's likely that these fogs were artificially cast spells, and they also have some special abilities in them."
Sakin pondered, the village was completely silent, and he didn't feel the slightest anger, but he could really see people moving.
The Soldier Guide was also confused, they hadn't been here like that before, and it seemed to have changed since they sent the Sentinels to explore Shadowfang Castle.
"Maybe the source of everything is in that castle, let's go and see!"
Sakin looked at the tall castle looming uphill, and felt a little uncomfortable, so he decided to find out.
"Yes, Lord Sakin!"
The soldier guide followed Sakin out of the Burning Wood Village, while Lexa and Misha had their backs to the entrance of the village, watching the mist warily.
"Lexa, is there something wrong?"
Sakin knew that they must have sensed something, could there really be something very dangerous approaching in the mist?
"There are two, they're approaching quickly from two directions, but it's not clear what they are?"
Lexa's years of experience in the wilderness have trained his senses to be extremely rigorous, and even the slightest movement can be detected.
Misha consciously came to Sagin's side at this time, and it seemed that she still subconsciously wanted to protect her little troll companion.
However, at this time, Sakin was no longer the same tooth as before, he pulled out two javelins from behind his back, opened his stance and prepared for battle.
Sou!
Unexpectedly, Sakin actually took the lead, and a javelin broke out of the air and plunged directly into the fog.
Woohoo!
With a canine-like scream, the javelin seemed to hit its target, and after a few more wails, it fell silent.
"The other one ran away!"
After a while, Lexa lifted his defensive posture and announced that the other party had gone away and that there was no need to be on alert.
"Sakin, you're really good!"
The Beastmaster didn't expect Sakin's javelin to be so accurate, and it was a one-hit hit when he couldn't see the target at all.
The difficulty of this shot is not something that ordinary throwers can achieve, and the opponent's size, speed, and movement habits are not clear, and can only be predicted by hearing.
It seems that Queen Sylvanas really won't randomly find someone to teach her personally, and Sakin's long-range attack talent is really unique in ten thousand.
"Just lucky! But what was that, I felt like a humanoid creature, why did it make a sound like a dog? ”
Although Sakin killed his target, he had no idea what he was killing, and the shape and voice of the other party he sensed could not match the creature he knew.
"It's a werewolf! Yes, it must be a werewolf, the legend of a werewolf has always been circulating in the Silver Pine Forest! ”
The soldier guide suddenly remembered something and immediately reported it to Sakin.
The Silverpine Forest is close to the original kingdom of Lordaeron, and there is also a mage force independent of the kingdom, Dalaran.
But in fact, there is also a human kingdom here, the Kingdom of Gilneys, but now it has somehow completely disappeared from the world's sight.
The kingdom is best known for its legends about werewolves, and since then, Gilneth has been associated with the image of werewolves, and they are no longer inseparable.
"Aren't werewolves legendary creatures? Is it real? ”
Although Lexa knew the legend of the werewolf, he had never actually seen such a creature, and he always thought it was just a legend!
"Lord Lexa, this was originally the Kingdom of Gilneis, one of the seven kingdoms of mankind, but later disappeared with the legend of werewolves."
"That's right! Some say that the Gilneys were cursed and all turned into werewolves! ”
The Soldier Guide told Lexa and Sakin everything he knew, and he wanted to say more, but found that there really wasn't much information left in the Kingdom of Gilneis.
"Man turned into a werewolf? At the moment I know that only druids can turn into animals, and that there are no wolves among the spirits of nature close to me. ”
Lexa touched his chin and said, Sakin looked at the Beastmaster, and he didn't think it was surprising that a man turned into a wolf, after all, there are many precedents in the history of trolls that transform with the help of natural spirits.
It's just that Sakin's memories that rely on bloodline awakening and inheritance don't know how to share them with Lexa, after all, it's difficult to explain in words.
"Lexa, let's hurry up to Shadowfang Castle! I think it's all about there! ”
Sakin had a strong sense that Shadowfang Castle held some secret secrets, so he was eager to explore it.
Lexa nodded, and followed Sakin towards the castle on the hillside, with the two soldier guides dutifully leading the way.
"Lexa, there's something wrong up ahead!"
Sakin felt an unusual fluctuation of energy, just on the way to Shadowfang Castle, but the position of that energy changed so fast that he couldn't be sure what it was?
"Got it, Misha, be on guard!"
Lexa pressed her right hand to the giant axe at her waist, and Misha lowered her huge head, ready to respond to a sneak attack.
"Lord Sagin, we are almost there, and a little further up, and across the bridge is the gate of the castle...... Yes! ”
A soldier guide turned his head to introduce the route up the mountain to Sakin, and before he could finish speaking, a dark shadow suddenly appeared on the side of the road and directly arrested him.
By the time everyone saw the sneak attacker, the soldier guide was already in a different place.
"Bastard, who is it?"
Another Forsaken soldier drew his sword and searched for the culprit who had mutilated his comrade.
The black shadow jumped three times in a row, and finally stopped on a large rock on the hillside not far away, and looked coldly at Sakin and his party.
Sakin drew his javelin, but he didn't rush to attack, because he hadn't gotten used to the guy's movement speed just now, and he didn't have the confidence to hit with one hit.
Lexa also drew his giant axe, and looked at the sneak attack in amazement, a humanoid creature with a big wolf head standing in front of them, his eyes shining blood-red.
"There really is! Werewolf ......"
