At half past one in the afternoon, Xiang Ningxuan finally saw a decent enemy.

A Death Knight leads an army of the undead in a large settlement.

According to previous information, this settlement has 18,000 to 20,000 people. Due to lack of preparation, the Undead Scourge has only a handful of corrupted high-ups in this settlement. The militia units guarding the settlement found that the situation was not right and hurriedly led the people to break through.

However, it was raided by an undead army on the way, and only about 5,000 escaped, and the remaining more than 10,000 people were killed and scattered in all directions, and I don't know how many people could escape.

Xiang Ningxuan, who had been depressed for a long time, didn't say a word, rolled up his sleeves and started drying. Chen Qing carried the energy shield and ate the attack of the Ghost Tower, and rushed forward with a group of half-orcs screaming.

The outpost of the Undead Scourge had less than three hundred low-level troops, and it was crushed by a wave, and the Tower of Spirits was also torn apart by orcs carrying sledgehammers.

Xiang Ningxuan was about to break through this settlement in one go, but his eyes suddenly stared, and then his eyes were about to split.

Not far ahead, under the shadow of a tall building, a dark-covered death knight led five abominations and hundreds of ghouls to stop at the entrance of a community. Moreover, each ghoul has a woman and child in his hands. And behind them, there are thousands of skeletons, an army of a handful of necromancers and meat grinders, and three towers of ghosts and two towers of arachnids.

"Human, I'm Death Knight Darkrell, how about we make a deal?" The leading Death Knight said as he lifted a child in one hand.

"I have nothing to talk about with your undead scourge. Get ready to attack! Xiang Ningxuan said loudly.

As soon as he finished speaking, Da Crell pierced the child's body with a sword without hesitation, and then grabbed another girl in her teens, and said with a cruel smile: "Aren't you pretending to fight for the people? Look at these women and children, aren't they the people of your mouth? If you attack, they will die instantly! ”

Everyone, including Xiang Ningxuan, couldn't help but grit their teeth, and Chen Qing even scolded loudly, almost starting to charge and rush forward. The half-orc warrior, the deputy head of the Zoe Regiment, Loken, also bared his teeth and grinned: "These disgusting skeletons have no honor at all. ”

"Are you still a knight? It will only hide behind the women and children! There's a kind of heads-up! Xiang Ningxuan said angrily.

"Hehe, I'm a Death Knight, and my honor and life have been given to the Lich King. As for the 'seed', we have eternal life and do not need to reproduce at all. Duckrell Road.

Watching these self-proclaimed righteous guys tangled and angry but helpless is Dacrell's greatest enjoyment. "Okay, can I hear about our deal now?"

For this kind of faceless and skinless guy, Xiang Ningxuan really can't help it. He forced himself to calm down, and quickly whispered to the staff officers around him: "Order the left and right flanks to march at full speed and outflank this settlement." The mid-lane troops are ready to attack in five minutes! ”

Then, he frowned and said to Duckrell, "Tell me, what deal do you want to make?" ”

"Hmph, it's very simple, I'll release one person in a minute. What do you think? "Duckrell wanted to laugh sincerely, but his laughter sounded like a sneer." As a sign of sincerity, I could have let her go first. As he spoke, he put down the girl in his hand.

The girl had already been frightened and suddenly free, but she looked at the hideous undead creatures around her, and did not dare to run away at all.

"Ahh Looks like you like me, why don't you stay with me? ”

When the girl heard this, how dare she continue to stay? Gather all your strength and turn and run towards the human army. It wasn't until Chen Qing stepped forward to pick her up that she couldn't help crying. Seeing the girl's successful escape, the other women and children immediately saw hope and cried loudly for help.

"Huh! Look! With so many lives in your hands, don't let them down! ”

Xiang Ningxuan didn't reply, and asked expressionlessly, "Great Lord, how did you deal with such a situation?" "He's the kind of person who gets angrier in his heart, the calmer he appears to be.

Behind him, the gray-haired old paladin held the ash messenger and looked at the women and children trembling under the ghoul minions, and said, "Don't you already have a decision in your heart?" Although this trick is simple, it is simply impossible to crack. In Azeroth, the Undead Scourge often uses this trick. Any idea why so many warriors who fought against the scourge of the undead fell? Because they watched innocent people being killed one by one, they could not bear the condemnation of themselves in their hearts. ”

Tirio Ferdin's voice said, slowly raising the Ash Messenger in his hand, and said calmly, "Young man, let me bear this sin!" ”

"Did we do something wrong? Why should we bear our sins! It's my responsibility, I can't shirk it, it's not my responsibility, and I don't want to dump the blame on me! Xiang Ningxuan snorted coldly, "This is obviously the sin of the undead natural disaster, even if we don't do it, can those people live?" What's more, the sins of the undead are not limited to these, haven't we already witnessed tens of thousands of people killed by them along the way? All I want now is to shred this scum into pieces! ”

After a short time, the staff officer came to report that he was ready to attack.

At this time, Darkrell had already released four people one after another, but there were more than three hundred people under the ghouls' minions, and by the time they finished one by one, it was dark.

Xiang Ningxuan held the Blade of Endless Darkness in his hand, and said to the officers beside him in a deep but firm tone: "Everyone, the Undead Scourge is our mortal enemy. There is no possibility of reconciliation between the two of us, nor do we have any common interests. They are willing to release one person every minute, so every minute they will surely get a greater gain than a human life! There is no room for negotiation with the undead scourge, the only thing we can do is to destroy them once and for all! There is no tactic in the next battle, just a wave of A passes! ”

His firmness infected all the officers present, and they put away their useless emotions such as anger, pity, and self-blame, gave a solemn salute, and then returned to their respective ranks.

Tirio Ferdin's eyes lit up as he looked at the young man, and if nothing else, his disposition alone was outstanding enough, and no one he had ever seen could compare to him. How did he know that Xiang Ningxuan was a person who had experienced two tests of demons, and his will would never be easily shaken.

Duckrell also saw that the situation on the other side was wrong, he rode his horse a few steps forward, put the rune sword on the neck of a person who just wanted to let go, and said loudly to Xiang Ningxuan: "Human, what are you doing? Don't want the lives of these people? ”

The answer he received was only four words: "Charge the whole army!" ”
