In the southern part of the Barrens, there is a mountain with a height of more than 2,000 meters, because the entire peak is covered with a black thorn, this place is also called the Black Thorn Mountain, the druids believe that this black thorn is the most common thorny thorn wood in the Barren Lands after being affected by a large number of magical elements, and there is no special danger. Despite this, the Black Thorn Mountains are a place that creatures living in the barren land are reluctant to approach, and even the gnolls who care the least about their living conditions will not make their home here.

At this time, Black Thorn Mountain ushered in a group of uninvited guests. Skeletons and ghouls used their bone knives and minions to cut off the dense black thorns, the hard thorns could not keep the unintelligent undead back, and whenever an area was cleared, the zombies waiting nearby would guard a few dark mages, infusing the land with the breath of death, killing the roots that remained in the soil.

It didn't take long for a preliminarily leveled clearing to be cleared out by these tireless undead, and the black thorns, which gave the druids a headache, were unable to make any counterattack in the face of such unreasonable attacks, so they had to silently endure the damage of these invaders.

An undead in a full suit of armor walked over, glanced around, nodded with satisfaction, and the two necromancers behind him immediately commanded the skeletons and zombies to start arranging, this place will be their camp for a period of time in the future, in order not to attract the attention of those centaurs, the necessary camouflage and traps are still indispensable.

From the sky there was a sound of flapping wings, and a gargoyle landed in front of the undead commander, and from the gargoyle's back jumped a necromancer, which is the standard configuration used by the undead to scout, the gargoyle can provide excellent low-altitude flight ability, and the necromancer has enough brains, and can also use various necromancy to better gather information.

"Lord Thassarian, the orcs have indeed disappeared, and there is not a single orc patrol to be seen from here to the Sweetwater Oasis." The necromancer said to the undead commander named Thassarian.

This is the sixth patrol he has sent, and for Thassarian, who is an undead knight, caution is one of the few virtues he has left after being resurrected as an undead, except for knowing that his name is Thassarian, he has completely lost his memory of the past after being resurrected by the high master not long ago, but some habits engraved in his bones are still silently affecting him.

Thassarian nodded: "It seems that those orcs are in serious trouble and have to transfer all the troops used for patrolling back." Great, it allows us to better fulfill the owner's plan! ”

"So, is there a need to change the previous arrangement? As you can see, these damn plants are hard to get rid of, and we had to put in a lot of dark mages. "What's more, this place is too far away from our preset battlefield, and once you start attacking those centaurs, it will take a lot of manpower to transport supplies. ”

"No, the plan remains the same, this is the key to getting in and out of the barren land, and setting up a camp here will allow us to firmly grasp this retreat in our hands! As for what you're worried about, we can set up another supply warehouse in the Velociraptor Plains, and the transformation circle can be set up there. ”

It is clear that Thassarian, despite the loss of memories of the past, still retains decent military capabilities. As he said, the Black Thorn Mountains were a very important military point due to their location at the southern end of the Barren Lands, from here you could go deep into the Barren Lands to the north, communicate with the Thousand Needles Stone Forest to the south, Razor Canyon and Red Cloud Terrace to the west, Mogaore where the Minotaurs were located through the canyon, and the complex dust swamp to the east, which was an excellent hiding place for Thassarian.

It's not that the minotaurs and orcs can't see this, but they don't spend too much energy here, the orcs don't want to waste supplies in this kind of place, the Thousand Needle Stone Forest and the Dust Swamp are not a suitable direction for the orcs to expand, the environment here is not suitable for the life of the orcs, and the minotaurs are troubled by the threat of centaurs, these strong bulls are more willing to build the Red Cloud Plateau into a solid fortress than to occupy the Black Thorn Mountain.

Under the hard work of a large number of skeletons and zombies, this clearing soon became a simple camp, and the black thorns cut down were used as a wall by these undead, and the hard and sharp thorns became the best defense, and several rudimentary tents were erected to protect the necromancers from the rain, and the natural power in the raindrops would increase the consumption of the wizards.

Thassarian left two necromancers to guard the camp, along with a few dark mages and a group of skeletal archers, more than enough to deal with the beasts and gnolls that occasionally roamed the area. Thassarian himself led his army of the undead along the foothills of the Black Thorn Mountains towards the Velociraptor Plains, where he had set out to be the battlefield.

At the same time, a large number of ghouls and gargoyles were sent out by Thassarian to search the barren lands for the traces of the centaurs, collecting as many corpses as possible to convert the necromancers into more undead creatures.

The Great Chief of the Orcs may have anticipated the chaos in the Barrens, but he could never have imagined that chaos would come so quickly, and it wasn't the centaurs who caused it, but a group of undead from nowhere!

After two days of Orgrimmar's repairs, Yu Bin once again took Alan and them out of the increasingly tense city to continue their leveling journey.

In order to meet Canos's need for ore, Yu Bin heard from the goblin channel to purchase a batch of ore, and relied on these ores to exchange some equipment from Canos, some of which were used to arm Lei Guang and Keldilla, and the rest were sold to goblins, which could make up for Yu Bin's cost of purchasing ore.

The strong flesh of the orcs allowed these green-skinned beasts to wear heavier equipment, so it was almost impossible to find any shop that sold cloth armor equipment in Orgrimmar, and in desperation, Raylight and Keldila had to wear a few rudimentary leather armors and hold short knives to get back on the road, which caused the two French pros to complain for a long time.

But for Yu Bin, this is the normal equipment choice of a French professional player, only those mages who hide in the tower to study magic knowledge will be keen on those thin cloths, these academic mages have to use light equipment such as cloth armor because they put too much energy on magic research, in the words of players, that is, mages with full intelligence do not have enough strength to wear leather armor.

For mage players who need to often adventure and fight in the wild, cloth armor is not only insufficient in defense, but also easy to damage, and even has many problems in cold protection and waterproofing, perhaps high-quality cloth armor equipment can make up for these problems, but the difficulty of obtaining is not something that players can afford, so mage players in the previous life finally gave up cloth armor equipment in the dilemma of pretending to be forced and life safety, and turned to leather armor, and even some lighter chain mail.

Yu Bin did not say these experiences explicitly, but chose to let Lei Guang and Keldila experience it themselves, and many things will only be truly remembered in their hearts after they have experienced them.

Along the edge of the Raging Flame Mountains, through the Grodom Farm, Yu Bin's chosen route this time was to rub the merchant coast all the way to the Velociraptor Plains, and also pass through Ratchet City on the way, where Yu Bin could replenish some low-level potions (Orgrimmar had stopped selling potions and various raw materials due to preparations for war, so Yu Bin had to go to Ratchet City to buy them).

The reason why the Velociraptor Plains was chosen as the destination for this outing to level up was for two reasons, one was to go to Ratchet City to replenish supplies, and the other was because the Slaughterer Basil, who lost this king of velociraptors, the velociraptors who were not social creatures would soon lose their biggest threat, compared to centaurs, naturally these brainless beasts were more suitable for Bin and their leveling.

Of course, they can also go to the Kodo Beast Grassland in the north to hunt Kodo Beasts, but in this way, the direction is just the opposite of Ratchet City, and it takes more time to go back and forth, in addition, the larger Kodo Beasts are used to living in groups for safety, even without the existence of the Kodo Beast Lord Scam, Yu Bin is not willing to try to provoke those huge beasts.

The purchase in Ratchet City is very smooth, the goblins have the greatest patience and the best service for any customer who is willing to pay gold coins, these green-skinned dwarfs live in the world for the purpose of escaping the last gold coin from your pocket, I really don't know how they developed to this extent, the god of trade and wealth is said to be a goblin, Yu Bin thinks that this may not be groundless.

Starting from Ratchet City and ending in the Dust Swamp, it is the coastline known as the Caravan Coast, which is the hiding place and unloading port of many pirates and smugglers, and also a dock for all kinds of stowaways.

"There's something wrong with the atmosphere." Yu Bin rode the Demon Bone Dragon Horse, covering the sun above his head with his hands, and looked at the coastline in the distance.

"It's not quiet!" Lei Guang lazily lying on the back of the horse, although the sun bath is not fatal to the undead, but it is by no means a comfortable experience, especially when wearing a leather armor, Lei Guang felt that he was going to suffer from heat stroke many times, but this is actually just an illusion, the undead have no body temperature at all.

"It's because it's quiet!" Yu Bin said, "This is the coast of the merchant traveler, not to mention those smugglers and stowaways, just those thieves and bandits who want to rob these fat sheep can make you kill softly, and now, not only can you not see those smugglers, even those jackals that can be seen everywhere are gone, have we encountered a roadblock robbery along the way?" ”

Hearing Yu Bin's words, Lei Guang finally stopped pretending to be dead, and sat up straight, holding the reins in one hand and the short knife inserted in his belt in the other.

"I think your question will be answered soon!" Ailan pointed to the distance and said, as a thief, he was farther away than Yu Bin in terms of observation distance.

As if to confirm Ailan's words, several figures that jumped out from behind a small dirt bag in the distance made Yu Bin a little stunned.

"That's? Ghoul? ”

"There are in the sky, too!" Keldila shouted, "It's a gargoyle!" ”

The sudden appearance of ghouls and gargoyles confused Yu Bin: "When did the undead appear in the barren land?" ”

Generally speaking, the vast majority of naturally born undead are skeletons, zombies or ghosts, and occasionally a few ghouls or ghouls will appear, but gargoyles can never be born naturally, this kind of undead creature is strictly a construct, and it needs to be infused by a necromancer to activate it.

The reason that has made this "thriving" caravan coast so inaccessible is obviously in these undead creatures that suddenly appeared.

"What should I do?" Lei Guang asked blankly, they came to level up, and when they set off, they considered the possibility of encountering centaurs, the possibility of encountering minotaurs, and even the possibility of encountering pirates who rarely came ashore, but they just didn't consider the possibility of encountering the undead, God knows what the origin of these undead is, and they took the liberty of attacking, in case they hit the wrong person, they didn't have the ability to switch to the camp of the guard.

Yu Bin drew his long sword and jumped off the horse: "What else can I do?" You can't just sit back and die! ”

"At least these guys don't look like they're here to talk to us!" Seeing those ghouls rushing towards them with their teeth and claws, the gargoyle in the sky also began to slowly lower in height, Ailan also left the horse, and put away the mount easily, riding on the horse is simply making himself the target of the gargoyle, the closer to the ground, the less space the gargoyle has to maneuver, as an undead, Alan has long understood the characteristics of most undead creatures.

"At least there is good news!" Yu Bin slashed a ghoul that pounced on him with a sword, and the sharp long sword easily cut through the ghoul's body, cutting off half of the small body of this undead creature, "These guys are not powerful, so it is basically impossible to be a member of the undead regular army, you can rest assured and boldly kill!" ”

"And what about the bad news?"

"The bad news is, we're probably going to have to jump into the ocean!" Yu Bin looked at the sky, and three more gargoyles appeared in his field of vision, which was beyond the limit of what they could bear.
