Chapter 13: Rivendell
Quelsara and his men made their way to the Cowlin junction, where they could see severed arms and stumps everywhere, and occasionally one or two lone or just floating ghouls.
These are all materials for military training, so Quelsala asked Eldara and Selin to deal with these ghouls, and by the way, let them familiarize themselves with the knight's skills.
Ordinary human soldiers of the sixth order become ghouls after death, and their strength will be greatly reduced, so natural disasters have always won by numbers, and as for those who are alone, except for the lich and the death knight, the rest are vegetables.
In this way, Quelsala's squad went all the way, all the way to clear, and at the bureau Kaurin junction there were still five kilometers away, and Quelsala ordered the troops to stop advancing.
Quelsara had been observing the number of lone ghouls she saw on the road, from one, to two, all the way to the number of squadrons. In view of this, Quelsara asked Hawksbill for advice, "Old Huo, do you feel that something is wrong?" ”
"What is Your Highness talking about?"
"As far as I know, a small force of natural disasters besieging a village, if not led by a lich or a death knight, will dissipate for a while as the force is consumed. It took us about half a day to get from your hut here, but there were still ghouls along the way. So, I concluded that there must be a Lich or Death Knight in remote command. Quelsala spoke her mind.
"Your Highness has a point!" Hawksbill said.
"I said Lao Huo, can you also give some advice, you can't just say what I say!" Quelsala said helplessly.
"But, Your Highness, what you say does have a point!" Hawksbill thought for a moment and said slowly, but an intriguing smile leaked from the corners of his mouth.
Quelsala had no choice but to order Karel and Larenis to explore the way.
"Eldara, Selin, come on!" After sending out the scouts, Quelsara shouted to the two Blood Knights in the group.
Eldara? The Morning Stalker is a beautiful female elf, with short blond hair in a shawl, delicate face, pale blue eyes, and snowy peaks that stand out against the background of the magic plate armor, which are extremely attractive to the opposite sex, especially the animal of Quelsala.
Selin? Fireheart, an extremely aggressive man. Except for his prince, he is not pleasing to anyone, and he is especially unkind to his enemies. During the Sunwell Protection War, he was responsible for leading the clansmen to retreat, resisting the attack of a team's natural disasters by one person, and even slashing a seventh-order lich. He had followed Kael'thas in his attack on Northrend, and he had also traveled to the Outlands to slaughter the Bluehoof's army. Quelsara needs a high-level warrior to infuse the Holy Light with a full-time Blood Knight, and Selin is the first in the Kael'thas army to sign up.
The two of them came to Quelsala and listened to him. Quelsala stared at Eldara all the time, and Eldara snorted coldly.
"Two, how did you feel about the battle just now? If you have any questions about the Blood Knight profession, you can ask me, although I am still only a second-order Blood Knight, but my theory is still very good. As Quelsara spoke, his eyes never took off Selin, and he didn't look at the Kael'thas loyalist without a single expression.
"Your Highness, I have read the Blood Knight Battle Manual you left for the countess, and I haven't found anything wrong so far." Eldara said proudly, not glancing at Quelsala. It's not that she thinks Quel's gaze is frivolous, it's that she feels that there is a magic in this man's eyes, and she can't help but look at it a second time just by looking at it, so he chooses not to look at it.
"Selin, what about you? If you have any doubts, you may have to deal with the Lich or the Death Knight later. "Quelsala asked Selin? Fireheart.
"Your Highness, I don't have a problem either."
Receiving the answers of the two, Quelsara muttered in her heart: In the end, he is a man of the year among the elves, this understanding is not bad, he is the eighth order just infusion, amazing!

Karel and Larenis stalked in the direction of Quelsala, and as they approached the Cowlin junction, they found a large number of skeletons and ghouls besieging the human defenders at the Cowling junction.
"Sure enough, as His Highness said, this natural disaster is attacking in an orderly manner, and someone must be commanding. Larenis, we continue our expedition westward, as the prince has said. Karel said to La Renis.
The two continued to sneak west, encountering many teams of ghouls along the way. Circumventing Lake Blackwood, in the mountains on the western shore of Lake Blackwood, Karel and Larenis saw a skeleton floating in the air, dressed in robes, and beside the skeleton stood a huge ghoul.
"Lich?! And high-level necromancers! Karel, our quick report to His Royal Highness, the Scourge of the Lich is not to be underestimated. "It may have been when the Scourge invaded Quel'Thalas, and the terrifying attack frightened the elves, so Larenis said nervously.
"Larenis!" Karel grabbed Larenis by the collar and said in a low voice, "Listen, Larenis, you must go back and report to the prince right away, I'm here to watch." Remember you can! ”
Larenis was grabbed by Karel by the collar, relaxed, nodded, and turned to sneak in the direction they had come from.

In the barracks of the Elven Ranger Squad, Quelsala was still teasing Eldara with a match, and he had no other meaning, just to let this proud beauty take a look at him, but his plan seemed to have failed. Eldara stood there with her head bowed, counting the ants on the ground.
Hawksbill received a report from Larenis at the door, and when he learned the news, he hurried to Quel's tent, opened the curtain without any estimate, and hurriedly said, "Quill, there is important information!" Larenis returned to report that there were lichs in the rear directing the battle. ”
"Lich!?" Quel'sala's eyes widened in shock, and Eldara looked up in surprise.
"What else but the Lich?"
"According to Larenis's information, there is also a high-level necromancer."
"It seems that Stratholme's scourge has been dispatched, and the high-level necromancer should be the former chief archmage of Rivendell, Malecchi. As for the lich, presumably Les from the Psychic Academy? Frost Whisper. Quelsala said analytically.
"Malaki!" Eldara stood behind Quelsala and clenched her fists and gritted her teeth.
"Al, what's wrong?" Quelsala asked, looking back at Eldara.
"Your Highness, Eldara asks for battle, and I will kill Maleki with my own hands!" Eldara knelt in front of Quelsala and begged for her life.
"No, Al, I can't let you go!"
"However, he killed my only brother, and I will kill him with my own hands to avenge it!"
"Al, I know! It's not just you who have hatred, it's hatred for all of us in Quel'Salas. But today's situation is more complicated, not only Maleki, but also a lich, and maybe Rivendell is also behind it. Quelsara rejected Al's request, "So, El, let's deploy a tactic, and I promise to hand over Malki to you." ”
Quelsala visibly underestimated Eldara's hatred, and Eldara only heard Quel's rejection of his request, and she didn't listen to a word of what Quelsala said later.
Just looked at Quelsala with red eyes, at this moment, under the control of hatred, I no longer realized how charming the man in front of me was, but felt that this was a coward, a coward!
"Al?" Quelsala sensed that Eldara was wrong, and stopped talking and looked at Eldara and asked.
"Humph!" Eldara snorted coldly and turned to leave the tent.
"Hold the grass! What do you mean? Quelsala was confused by Eldara's reaction, but after a while, Quelsala suddenly became alert, "Damn! Selin, go and show me Eldara at once, and desperately want to show her to me! ”
Moments later, the soldiers reported that the Magister Teresta had bound Eldara in an arcane cage. Quelsala breathed a sigh of relief and muttered, "This little girlie is really untrained!" ”
"Your Highness, what is the little girl's skin?" Hawksbill, who had been standing in the tent, asked.
"Lao Huo, what you care about now is how we attack, not other irrelevant things!" Quelsala said dissatisfied.
"Attack? What's so hard about this, isn't it just a lich and a necromancer! I'll do it alone, you only need to be responsible for the rest of the natural disasters, and I'll leave the heads of these two leaders to me!" "Plus, you and your personal bodyguard Serin are tasked with keeping an eye out for the Rivendell bastard who might come back to help." Oh, and if he does come, you'll have to wait until I come before you kill him, and I'll kill this ungrateful bastard with my own hands! ”
Quelsala was deployed as Hawksbill had proposed.

Karel Shadow was hidden, prone in a low-lying grass, infested with plague-infected creatures, and the disgusting flesh worms crawling over him. Karel held on motionless.
"Malki, relax! With me here, I promise that this time it will be foolproof. When you take the chapel, remember to give me a skeleton, I've been looking forward to the Death Knight for a long time. The lich floating there with ease said to Malekhi, who was a little nervous beside him.
"Honorable Lich! Thank you very much for your assistance, and I will definitely take credit for you in front of Lord Rivendell. Maleki said flatteringly.
"Rivendell? I don't need to ask for credit yet. The lich said contemptuously, "I'm Les? Frostwhisper only obeys the orders of the Dean and the Great Lich King. ”
"Yes, yes, yes! Please also ask Lord Frost to say a few kind words in front of the Dean about my promotion to a lich! Malecki continued.
"As long as my Death Knight is never a problem, your request is a trivial matter!" Lesshuang said confidently.
"Thank you, Lord Frost!" Malecchi said with great flattery, and almost knelt on the ground and kowtowed.
"Malecchi, don't rejoice too soon! Our enemies are coming! Lesfrost said, "This group of elves is really tenacious, they are still so energetic after all the countries have been destroyed. Hey, hey, wait and see the show! ”
"My minions do my bidding, and let those elves always be the best of the Lich!" Lesfrost summons the skeletons and ghouls of the book and tells them to attack the attacking elves.
Quelsala, riding on the horse of the Salas army, faced the attacking skeleton and shouted, "Teresta, Darth Visser, follow me to unleash the blizzard, contain the lich on the opposite side, and buy time for Lao Huo." ”
As soon as Quelsara finished speaking, the ice cubes that gathered fell from the sky like snowflakes, instantly freezing the attacking skeletons in place and turning them into ashes.
The rangers' bows and arrows are full of arrows, and each attack can crush a skeleton. Blood Knight Serin? Fireheart and Eldara are in no man's land, Sindore Greatsword takes away a large number of skeletons with every swing, and dozens of ghouls are purified with every flash of light.
"Yo, underestimate them. It seems that I'm giving you something real. Try the magic I've been working on lately, Withering Death! The lich Lesfrost shook her skeletal hands rapidly, words in her mouth.
Just as he was about to finish the last word of the incantation, a magic arrow landed in his hands with pinpoint accuracy, interrupting his spell casting.
"Who is it?" However, the answer to him was one magic arrow after another.
"Ranger Lord!" The lich shouted.
"With a bit of eyesight, you relied on the help of the Polluted Sunwell and the Darkan traitors to sneak up on us when our combat effectiveness was weakened. Today I'm going to let you try Sindore's awesomeness! Hawksbill, who was standing there, pointed his longbow at the lich, and then shouted to the low-lying place next to him: "Stinky boy, don't get up again, wait for it to affect you, be careful of your nickname!" ”
Hearing Hawksbill's shout, Karel jumped to his feet and quickly rushed into the battlefield.
As Hawksbill confronted the lich, Quelsala ordered, "Darth Visser, bind that necromancer in an arcane cage for me." ”
Malecchi felt a very powerful arcane force and wanted to attack him, and he could feel that this attack was too much for him to bear, so he could only dodge. However, he still underestimated his opponent, and his seventh-order strength was not enough to fight against the ninth-order archmage's arcane cage, so he was restrained in place by a huge violet-colored transparent light shield.
"Lich, meet your death!" Hawksbill pronounced the lich's end, condensing an arcane-enhancing arrow in his hand.
Les felt that he was going to return in vain today, and he didn't pay any attention to Hawksbill's threat, he only felt that his death knight was about to be far away!
An arcane arrow pierced Rice's skull, and the skeleton floating there was scattered to the ground in an instant.
"Lich? So vulnerable! Hawksbill said contemptuously, turning his head to look at the bound Malkee.
"Your Excellency, please leave this to me!" Eldara walked over with her sword in her hand and said eagerly. 、
"Beautiful Miss! Please! "Hawksbill is unusually polite to Eldara, and I guess it's all for Quel'sala's sake.

Eldara? The Morning Walker came to Maleci with his greatsword in his hand, and without saying a word, raised his sword and slashed.
"Ding!" Unexpectedly, the greatsword slashed at a green light mask.
"Malecchi, you've disappointed me so much!" An ethereal, indifferent voice rang out.
"Magic Shield! Death Knight! Rivendell! El get out of the way! Quelsala hurried over and hugged Eldara, forming a wall of ice behind her.
