Chapter 100: Travels to the Kingdom of Azeroth

Needless to say, Stormwind is a human city.

It is also the most prosperous human city that Carlin has seen in all these years...... Dalaran is different, it's a different style.

Probably because of the proximity to the sea, the climate here is very warm, and most of the popular clothing is made of thin cloth in different colors...... Humans usually wear long-sleeved tunics, loose pants, and leather boots, which sometimes appear ridiculously large.

Carlin also took off his tight robes and put on a "ridiculous" costume in the style of Stormwind...... With his hood on, he now looks no different from a human citizen!

Dressed in his usual attire, he strolled through the streets of Stormwind, surveying the city:

The vine-covered tower sits on the west side of Stormwind in the Mage Quarter...... It is also considered to be the best human magic organization other than Dalaran, formed by the mages who fled from Riptide Castle to Stormwind in the first place.

Stormwind Fortress, a massive fortress perched atop a cliff in the northern part of the city, guards Stormwind and provides shelter for the king and other nobles. The fortress was designed with the idea that if the city could not withstand the attack of the enemy army, it would be possible to escape safely from the fortress by using several secret passages hidden deep at the bottom.

The Cathedral of the Holy Light is perhaps the only building that can rival the Stormwind Fortress, a majestic white structure topped by a tower in the shape of a spiral...... This is the stronghold of the followers of the Light, where many priests and healers study and worship, including the Archbishop of the Light, Alonsos Fao!

……

Carlin rented a carriage and he still had a lot to go.

Guards patrolling the streets of Stormwind can be seen everywhere, and the city's atmosphere of war seems to be stronger than that of the northern countries...... It seems that the impact of the orc invasion, King Ryan-Ureon did not turn a blind eye!

However, it is still some time before the city falls...... In the history of the previous life, King Ryan was assassinated by Garona in the fourth year of the Dark Gate, and at the same time, the entire kingdom of Azeroth fell! There are still four years to go.

A group of galloping cavalry suddenly stepped past the carriage and splashed dust!

Carlin couldn't help but frown.

The impact of these dozen or so cavalry is very powerful.

"That's Prince Varian!" The coachman exclaimed, "He is only ten years old, and he is already very much in the style of His Majesty Lane in the past!" ”

"Varian-Ureon?" Carlin stuck out his head and looked into the distance, at the very front of a dozen cavalrymen, the already small back.

"He's going to be a great king in the future!" Carlin sighed.

"Of course!"

……

The carriage soon entered the Elwyn Forest......

It is dotted with farms, lumber yards and mines, and is rich in resources...... It is also the main source of tax revenue for the Kingdom of Azeroth.

Of course, apart from the lumberyards and villages, and near the mines, most of Alwyn is forested. The fearsome wolves still inhabit the nearby forests, and the southern forests are said to be infested with kobolds and gnolls...... A giant gnoll named "Valla" is their leader!

At the same time, the Elwyn Forest is full of lakes and rivers, the land is fertile because of them, and the fish people come here from the sea.

"It's best not to wander around the Elwyn Forest at night, or you might run into danger!" This is the advice given by the coachman.

Although he didn't think the kobolds, gnolls, or fishmen were a threat to him, Carlin gladly accepted his advice.

"There's Shining Gold Town ahead, we can rest there for the night!" The coachman continued.

That night in Shining Gold?

Something strange suddenly occurred to Carlin.

"Let's go to the Lion King's Pride Inn, where we can have a big glass of freshly brewed Lion King......"

"Whatever, I don't drink!" Carlin said calmly.

The carriage stopped at the side of the road, and a stonemason crouched on the wall next to the inn...... Even though it was getting late, he was still working hard.

"Edwin, are you still busy?" The coachman seemed to know him and asked casually.

"Yes, otherwise how can I go back to feed my wife and daughter!" The stonemason, Edwin, replied with a big grin.

Carlin didn't pay attention to the conversation, but booked his room and went in to rest...... As he got closer to Karazan, he began to feel a little nervous at the same time.

……

Early the next morning, the carriage set off again, heading east, and it took several days to drive past the East Valley Lumberyard......

Then the driver turned around and headed south...... Night Town, is their next destination.

Farms and forests are still in plain sight, and like many small towns, Nightshade is channelling resources to Stormwind and Lordaeron to the north...... A very bustling town, only slightly dim in light compared to the previous Elwyn Forest.

Compared to the chaotic and sad twilight forest of later generations, the impression is too far away!

However, with the subsequent invasion of orcs and natural disasters in the future, this land, which is quite far away from the Storm Fortress, will also gradually fall......

Carlin spent the night resting in Nighttown.

However, the driver was no longer willing to continue east.

"The upwind trail is terrifying, it's a cursed land, and legend has it that ghosts or demons haunt it...... Master Mage, even if you give me a gold coin, I don't want to go there......"

The driver insisted on this, and in desperation, Carlin had no choice but to walk along the road, but fortunately it was not too far away.

The ground is overgrown with thick weeds, and apparently this road is rarely trodden...... Out of caution, Carlin also grabbed the staff in his hand.

Suddenly, he stopped!

"What sound?"

A few bits of emerald green light appeared ahead...... Carlin hurriedly raised his staff and released a "flash spell"!

And with a flash of light, the owner of the emerald green light disappeared again into the darkness.

What kind of insect does it seem?

And it's a very large one.

However, no matter what kind of insect you are, you are afraid of flames...... Carlin simply used the fireball technique to light the torch, and sure enough, those voices in the darkness began to disappear little by little!

At the same time, the upwind trail is just around the corner.
