Chapter 124: Logging

The mild sun showed half of his face in the mountains, and the cool fresh air made people feel comfortable, and early in the morning, Unas led the guards to the training ground for a run, and the young men shouted in high spirits, disturbing the dreams of others without hesitation.

At the beginning of the new day, after the morning exercise, Unas asked Raphael to continue the exercise with his personal guards, and he himself went to the gate of the stronghold to personally escort the logging team out, and he promised the workers that he would let them work safely and return home safely, and this first day of course showed that he valued them.

The druids had already marked several areas on the map where they could be felled, and Unas and a group of soldiers led the logging team to a nearby location, only to find that even when it came to which tree, the oak leaf had sent the night moon to make a familiar crescent mark on the bark.

Seeing that the druids had put so much thought into this, Unas immediately strictly banned indiscriminate logging, after all, Master Oak Leaf was the last person to offend at the moment.

Dead wood is sawn up and loaded onto carts to be pulled back to the base by obedient orc laborers, where they are twisted into sawdust to be used as a base for growing wood mushrooms.

Unas was bored and acted as an overseer, responsible for escorting the loaded cart back to the camp, and while he was resting, he called over to an orc who seemed to be a little clever and asked, "What is your name, which clan are you from, Warsong or Frostwolf?" ”

Warsong and Frostwolf are two of the most famous clans among the Orcs, and the Alliance fought against them in the first two battlegrounds of the game, Warsong Canyon and Alterac Valley.

The scrawny orc laborer shrunk in horror, lowered his head and did not dare to look into Unas's eyes, and said in an awkward lingua franca: "Carlos, Ishi, Ishiguro." ”

It should be the Blackstone Clan, Unas pointed to a few orcs around him and asked, "What about the others, all like you?" ”

"Yes, we are all slaves of Lord Naintus."

Naintus must have been one of the seventeen orc warriors who did not want to be coolies, and Unas provoked, "I heard that the food you have worked so hard to get is given to him, which seems unfair, but he sits in a cage all day doing nothing. ”

"It's not like Lord Naintus hasn't done anything, and without his protection, our food would have been stolen by the orcs of other clans."

I see, the orcs are not monolithic, and Unus had thought about executing all the useless orc warriors before, but now it seems that this simple and crude method will probably lead the laborers who have lost their counterweights into killing each other.

Unas wanted to say to him, "You take refuge in me, and I will protect you," but on second thought, why did these orcs believe in a human who enslaved them? Without further along, he got up and waved his whip, urging them to hurry up and get on their way.

The zigzag slope in front of the stronghold was a difficult task, and the orcs tried their best, and the fully loaded cart only moved forward at turtle speed, and Unas had to give them the blessing of newfound strength, and the cart was pushed up to the high ground with a bang.

As soon as he reached the gate, a soldier rushed towards Unas, "Lord Garrison, there is a wandering female priest who came to the stronghold this morning and wants to see you. ”

Natasha has finally appeared! Unas hurriedly tossed the orc escort to the captain of the guard at the gate, telling the herald to lead the way, now was the time to use the Shadow Priest.

A fair-robed fair-woman priest was waiting at the entrance of the barracks, two strands of brown hair hanging down from her neck, and a wide hood and mask covering most of her face, revealing only the dark pupils.

Unas hurriedly led her into the tent, and after retiring the guards, asked, "Natasha?" ”

"It's me." Through the mask, the voice of the priestess was still crisp.

"Great, you're here at the right time, I have two things I have to ask you."

Natasha nodded, and Unas continued, "First, there is a kid named Evan in my personal guard who is not very tight-mouthed, and I want you to turn him into a tight-lipped person. ”

Unas explained to her Evan about Helia's betrayal, and the priestess's voice became a little cold: "Leave this traitor to me, and I will make him a happy idiot." ”

"You don't need to be so ruthless, just erase some of his memories, and this matter can be put aside for a while," Unas didn't want to make things too desperate, "The second thing is the priority, I want you to control the spirit of a necromancer, and even break a lich's memory protection for him, can you do this?" ”

"It's difficult," Natasha frowned, "take me to meet the necromancer." ”

"That's exactly what I mean."

Unas ordered someone to prepare a horse for Natasha, and the two quickly rushed to the cave where the necromancer was, fortunately, Hex didn't go out to hang around, Unas ordered him to take the overlord spider out to guard, and the troll was a little strange to see a strange female priest, but he didn't dare to ask more, and obediently rolled out of the cave.

Natasha didn't talk nonsense, she picked up the necromancer's head and put it next to his forehead, and the black light began to dance outside the priestess, quickly turning her into a pure black shadow.

It was transformed into a shadow form, and dense spells began to echo through the cave, perhaps with a hypnotic effect, and Unas listened to it drowsily.

I don't know how long later, suddenly there was a flash of black light, Natasha snorted, threw her head on the ground with all her might, and then staggered a few steps on her forehead, staggering.

Unas immediately came to his senses when he saw this, and hurriedly stepped forward to support the little waist of the female pastor, "Are you okay?" ”

Natasha sat down cross-legged, closed her eyes and meditated for a moment before exhaling, "I failed. ”

Unas picked up the head, only to see the necromancer's eyes closed, his face flabby, and he seemed to be in a coma, "What kind of failure method, failed to control him or failed to break his memory?" ”

"Failed together, his spirit is very tenacious, my 'mind control' can only control him for a short time, I want to use this time to break the memory seal with him, but the spell that the lich cast is so powerful that it backs up and injures us all."

"I see, you get some rest first." Unas was extremely disappointed, and at the same time had a trace of fear of the lich behind the necromancer, and he seemed to provoke an enemy who should not be provoked, should he destroy the corpse and burn the overlord spider and the necromancer together? He immediately dismissed this idea, no matter how to escape, offending the lich was a sure thing, it was better to think about how to deal with it head-on.

"Sorry to disappoint you, I can try again when I recover." Natasha actually apologized, maybe because of a nervous breakdown?

"Then please."

Unas raised his hand to brush her with a few holy light spells, but Natasha hurriedly stopped her, "I'm in a shadow state, and the holy light spell is useless to me." ”

He patted his head and smiled bitterly, "It's always okay for the king's blessing, right?" ”

"Please." Natasha closed her eyes again and went into a meditative state again.
