Chapter 28: Waiting (Page 1/1)

"The Scourge has conquered the Western Tower!"

"The Scourge has conquered the Southern Tower!"

"The army of the undead has captured Stratholme ......"

"The Fall of Talon......"

In the past few days, there has been a steady stream of war reports about the Eastern Plague Land. For a time, the size of the Scourge Legion was exaggerated to hundreds of thousands, or even millions. The entire Eastern Plague Land, almost everywhere, is the shadow of the army of the undead. Thousands of warriors from the Brotherhood of Light and the Knights of the Silver Hand have made their way to the front lines, stationing across the Sodoril River to stop the Scourge from infiltrating further.

Panic is spreading across Lordaeron, and even the civilians of Hearthvale are beginning to worry if their fortress will one day be breached by the Scourge Legion.

The situation is becoming more and more tense, and reinforcements from various countries are on the way...... Even the Blood Elves of Quel'Salas were dispatched, and the Blood Elves, led by Winlessa the Windranger, pinned down some of the undead forces in the north, however, their messages rarely reached Lordaeron. Ares guessed that there must have been an air force unit intercepting the undead of the Scourge on the way. This also intensified Ares's speculation as to why the information of the Eastern Plaguelands was accurately transmitted to the royal city of Lordaeron every time, while the transmission of information about the elves was full of resistance.

While she was thinking about it, Liadline came up with her own plan.

"I will lead the Blood Knights across the Ridge of Remorse, join up with the dwarven forces of Eagle's Nest Mountain in the Poison Mist Canyon, and then raid the Scourge in the Eastern Plaguelands. High Lord, you can have the Paladins stationed at the Chapel of Light's Wish cooperate with me to flank the Scourge undead in that area. ”

She swore by it.

The melodious voice of the Blood Knight Commander quickly reached the ears of every Lordaeron officer. Looking at Liadrin's graceful figure and seductive twin peaks, the leader of the Lordaeron militia couldn't help but be a little distracted.

But Liadline didn't look at him squarely, and she threw herself into the Scourge War. Her lover Lotherma is dead, and for the rest of her life, the only motivation to survive is to destroy the demons, destroy the Scourge Legion, and avenge Lotherma.

Ares had warned the beautiful knight not to let anger consume his inner sanity, otherwise the frenzy would turn the paladin into a beast. But Liadline didn't seem to listen. Ares noticed that her arms were shaking unconsciously as she spoke, and her emotions were extremely unstable.

"I don't agree with you."

Ares said.

"Why?!"

Liadline immediately cast a disgruntled gaze. She and Ares looked at each other, but their eyes were full of resentment.

"Your strength, the strength of the Blood Knights, is not enough to deal with the Scourge Legion. Putting aside the number of the Scourge Legion, judging from the information available so far, the Lich King must have visited Lordaeron in person. Even if the Scourge Legion were all still, the Lich King himself would be enough to destroy you, your Blood Knights. ”

Ares said coldly.

"You are despising my knights. Defy the Knights of the Silver Moon! ”

Liadline shouted. Her chest fell together with anger, and the head of the militia group drooled. But Liadline ignored him. Her full attention was now on the war.

Liadline stared at Ares as if it was about to burn.

"Not contempt, but analysis of facts. The Lich King has a power that you and me, and none of you here, can handle. Don't underestimate the power of the Fatherkiller. It was Arthas under the Domination of the Darkest Personality. The darkest and coldest force in the world. ”

Ares whispered.

"So what do you say you're going to do? Just send a squad of paladins to the Sodoril River to stop the Scourge from crossing the river? ”

Liadline asked angrily.

"This is a preliminary action. Follow-up has already begun. ”

"What's next?"

Liadline asked.

"The fleet of Theramore has departed, and the reinforcements of Stormwind and Ironforge have left the city, and they will meet at the Sador Bridge and then head north together. The Hammer Dwarves of Eagle's Nest Mountain are also well prepared. You can go to war at any time. Also, there's news that you don't know, the Night Elf army is here. They may be a little late, later than the fleet in Theramore. But this is a formidable force. Once all the forces are together, we can launch a deadly counterattack against the Lich King. ”

Sitting in the middle of the crowd, Ares explained passionately.

"It's just waiting, but you know, we're reinforcing and the Scourge is also reinforcing it, so how do you know the Lich King won't be calling in more troops?"

Liadline asked rhetorically.

"He would, but he doesn't have that many ships, he's slower than us. Once our army outweighs the Scourge Legion, this is an opportunity! ”

Ares replied confidently.

"Opportunity? What chances? ”

Luo Ning asked with a frown.

"A chance to besiege the Lich King in Lordaeron."

Ares smiled confidently.

The crowd seemed to have come to their senses.

"What do you mean?"

"Quite simply, we've assembled the most powerful navy in all of Azeroth, and once the combined forces of Gianna and the Night Elves defeat the Scourge Legion's maritime forces, the Lich King will be trapped here once and for all. It is impossible to completely wipe out the Scourge Legion, and only by killing the Lich King can this catastrophe pass. Without the sea forces, Arthas would not have been able to return to Northrend, to the Frozen Throne. We're going to beat him on our home turf! ”

Ares raised his left hand and said with a fighting spirit.

It can be seen that the officers present have shown approving and even excited expressions. But Jean immediately offered his own opinion -

"Don't forget, they have floating fortresses."

"You mean Naxxramas?"

"Yes, shouldn't this giant air fortress be considered? Originally, the fortress carried tens of thousands of Scourge soldiers and nearly wiped out the Crusaders. ”

Jean reminded.

"Indeed, this fortress is a nuisance. However, the Scourge also has only one Naxxramas. As long as we keep it under control......"

"Or just take it again!"

Drumm proposed. It was their glorious history, when Ares and Drum, along with Darien, broke into Naxxramas and killed the death knight Alexander Rhodes. Mograine, and reclaiming the fallen Ashesbringer, a history that remains the pride of Drum.

"Then I'll wait for your plan to succeed, Ares......"

Unable to compete with Ares, Liadline looked resentful. Her long sword longs to be stained with the blood of the enemy, but, for the sake of the big picture, in order to concentrate all her strength, she has to wait......
