A golden dragon eagle descended from the sky and descended into a corral near the palace of Lordaeron.

The rider on the back of the dragon eagle jumped off his mount......

An elven mage, dressed in pale blue robes, with a short sword pinned to his waist, and a staff with a slightly thick top behind him.

The elven mage shouted to the keeper of the furnish:

"I'm the lieutenant of Karin Sunrage and Lord Anduin Lothar, may I ask where Lord Lothar is now?"

"It's Lord Carlin!" The steward of the beast pen said respectfully, "Please come with me, Lord Lothar is in a battle meeting!" ”

"Combat meeting?" Carlin couldn't help but frown.

It stands to reason that the war with the orcs has not officially broken out, so there should be no battle meeting, unless ......

"What's going on?" Carlin asked hurriedly.

"A sad news." The corral keeper bowed his head: "The army of the tribe has advanced to Kazmodan, and the dwarves have been defeated...... Their king, Madolan-Copperbeard, also died at the hands of the Horde! With the exception of Ironforge, the whole of Kazmodan has fallen! ”

……

When Carlin saw Lothar again ten minutes later......

This old warrior, dressed in a gorgeous military uniform, with a high hat on his head, does not leave a trace to cover his "Mediterranean...... His face looked a little tired.

"Coming back so soon, Carlin!" After seeing Kalin, Lothar was visibly happy: "I thought you were going to stay in Dalaran for a few more days!" ”

"Yes...... Carlin nodded, and hurriedly asked, "My lord, what's going on over there at Ironforge?" ”

"Hey!" Lothar sighed......

As early as a month ago, the vanguard of the Horde had entered Kazmodan, the land that belonged to the dwarves...... Although there was some conflict with the dwarves there, there was no official war, and the tribe only occupied a few mines and did not continue in the direction of Ironforge......

According to Lothar's original plan, he planned to send an army to Kazmodan to unite with the dwarves and form a two-sided attack on the tribe.

But no one expected that the tribe would suddenly attack, and then within less than a week of the battle, the dwarven defense line would collapse on all fronts...... Even the king of Ironforge, Madolan Copperbeard, was killed at the hands of Kilrog, the chief of the Bloodring Clan.

Led by Madolan Copperbeard's son, Magni Copperbeard, the remaining Copperbeard Clan dwarves retreated to Ironforge, the kind of city built in the mountains...... With the strong defenses of Ironforge, the Horde could not be attacked for the time being; However, from Blackstone Mountain to Lokmodan to Grimbaatar, almost all the dwarven towns along the way were occupied by the tribes......

At the same time, Ironforge soon sent a messenger to the Alliance, whom Carlin also met.

A very tired dwarf, dressed in thick plate armor and holding two great axes in his hands......

"Praise the Titans, I'm finally here!" The dwarf cried out: "I am the son of Madolam: Muradin Copperbeard, I have brought my brother's letter!" ”

Magni Copperbeard has succeeded King of Ironforge......

In his letter, the new king of Ironforge said that he wanted Ironforge to join the alliance and drive those orc monsters out of their homeland!

"Welcome to the Alliance, warriors of Kazmodan!" Lothar accepted the letter and asked, "But there is one thing I don't quite understand...... It's not humiliating, but I wonder why the tribe is moving so fast? ”

Lothar tried her best to make her tone as tactful as possible.

Muradin sighed and continued: "This is not something worth mentioning...... In the first confrontation with the tribes, we did not have the upper hand, and although their warriors were strong, we dwarves were not easy to mess with...... But a week ago, a horde of eccentric black knights suddenly appeared in the Horde's ranks! ”

"Eccentric Black Knight?" Carlin frowned, "Is it the undead?" ”

"I don't know." Muradin sighed: "It should be, they all exude a strong gloomy aura on their bodies...... The knights rushed into our positions and unleashed strange howls and powerful spells. Our warriors were caught off guard, and many brave compatriots trembled with fear on the battlefield, lost their combat effectiveness for no apparent reason, and then suddenly fell to the ground, and naturally died at the hands of the tribe...... My father also died because of this! ”

"Death Knight?" Carlin whispered.

"What's that!" Lothar's gaze turned to Carlin.

"According to Muradin's description, these should be the death knights summoned by the tribe using psychic magic!" Carlin explained, and he told Lothar everything he knew about the Horde's method of summoning the Death Knight in his previous life.

"I've seen such descriptions in the books of the Karazhan Library, so that's why I have this speculation!" Finally, Carlin made a point of adding.

"That's not going to be easy!" Lothar's expression became serious: "This kind of death power will greatly affect the morale of our soldiers, which is very deadly on the battlefield...... Looks like it's a new toy from the tribal warlocks, I haven't seen this monster in Stormwind before! ”

"Maybe the power of the Light...... They can be restrained! Carlin reminded.

"The power of the Holy Light ......" Lothar thought for a moment and shook her head, "But we can't let the priests go to the front line of the battlefield in large numbers, this is to send them to slaughter the warriors of the tribe......"

"No, maybe we can!" A gentle and majestic voice suddenly came from outside the door.

An elderly man walked in, Archbishop Alonsos Fao, who had returned to Lordaeron after a trip to Stratholme.

Fao was followed by four men:

One was Tulayan, who winked at Kalin;

There is also a Lothar who has the impression that he is one of the most trusted knight captains of King Terenus-Minethir, Uther.

There are two more, which are a little stranger.

"I was devastated when I heard that the Northshire Abbey had been destroyed and that all the priests had died at the hands of the Horde......" said the archbishop slowly, "so I kept thinking about how to keep these pious children alive when the war spread to Lordaeron!" ”

"It's clear that even the most powerful warriors, even like you (referring to Lothar), the orcs of the tribe are a great threat...... Our priests can't even protect themselves, let alone ordinary people who believe in the Light! ”

A smile suddenly appeared on the corner of the archbishop's mouth: "Then, I suddenly had an idea. ”
