"They can't break through the city gate, this city gate is protected by a magical energy field, without a key, no amount of undead can break through our city gate!"

Sylvanas said, shooting an arrow through a zombie that had climbed the wall, and the zombie first looked at his chest where he had been hit by the arrow, and then, expressionlessly, stretched out his rotting hand and pulled the arrow out entirely. The Ranger Captain was stunned by what she saw, she had imagined what the Scourges would look like, but she didn't expect these undead soldiers to be so numb, they were just a pile of rotting corpses, unconscious, they didn't know pain, they didn't know how to fear, they were much more terrible than the living.

While hesitating, Ares rushed over and smashed the zombie's head with a hammer, spilling brains and blood all over the ground.

"Like this, kill them."

Gasping for breath, Ares said aloud.

The sky was full of screaming gargoyles, and Sylvanas saw an elven ranger caught in the air by this bloodthirsty monster, and the ranger struggled to escape the monster's grasp, but no matter how much he struggled, it was to no avail.

The gargoyle's sharp claws hooked his shoulders and sank into his skin and flesh. Scarlet blood seeped from the Ranger's shoulders, and soon he was caught in the air by the giant gargoyle, the beast swirling in the air for a moment, and suddenly released its claws, and Sylvanas saw his comrade, the Ranger, fall vertically like a pebble in a huge canopy, and then, into an endless pile of zombies......

Another zombie climbed the wall, so close to the Ranger Captain that she didn't even have time to pull out her dagger and slash its head, when Ares' hammer fell again, and a bright light burst out, and the carrion burst into flames, howling and falling from above the gates.

Below, there is a dense army of zombies.

The gate shook suddenly, and Sylvanas looked down, where several giant undead spiders were slamming their hard heads against Quel'Thalas's Sunset Gate.

"Stop them!"

She shouted, arrows falling in all directions, but the hard carapace of the giant spiders held back the sharp arrows fired by the High Elf rangers.

"Damn it!"

Sylvanas could barely believe her eyes, her hands trembling, her palms oozing with sweat, and the fir bow making a slightly restless restless sound.

"Be mentally prepared, my dear, for the next battle to be a hundred times more terrible."

Ares ran from behind, knocking down a skeleton warrior with a single hammer, then smashing its skeleton with his shield. The blue soul fire suddenly drifted into the air.

At this moment, the city gate shook again, and the blue magic barrier seemed to be dissipating.

"It can't be!"

Sylvanas shouted, watching in horror as the gates below were knocked open by the Scourge spiders.

"This gate has been strengthened by the power of magic, and no one can break through it without a key!"

She continued.

"But if there are traitors, it's different."

Ares turned in response. At this time, Lotherma behind him remembered something like an electric shock.

"Darkan! Yes, I've seen him on forest trails! ”

"Silvermoon Mage, what are you doing running to the front line?"

Sylvanas said resentfully, pulling the bowstring and shooting at the skeletons below the tower.

"There is only one explanation, he has taken refuge in Arthas, to the forces of darkness!"

Ares replied calmly. In fact, they had warned the elves of this fact before the war, but they didn't listen to it. Lotherma turned her head in embarrassment and dealt with the undead gargoyle in the air. Just a few hours ago, he had sworn that the members of the Silvermoon Council were loyal to their kingdom......

There were more and more gargoyles in the sky, and they screamed, tearing at the elven archers above the walls. Under the city walls, those zombies and skeletons were already piled up more than a person high, and they were about to climb the city walls, and many elven archers did not even have the space to draw their bows, so they could only draw their short swords and daggers to fight in close quarters. What's more, the gate under his feet is about to be breached.

The air reverberated with ghostly spells, spells that broke Quel'Salas' magical barrier.

"Traitor!"

Sylvanas shouted angrily, however, she had no choice.

"We must retreat."

She shouted again.

The Silver Moon Rangers began to retreat along the steps behind the city walls, retreating in an orderly manner. Because before the battle, Ares and Sylvanas had already given a speech on tactics. Now, the situation is just going in the worst direction.

Elven archers began to retreat one after another.

Ares turned his head to see Arthas in the crowd sitting on his skeletal horse, watching the bloody siege with great interest. It seemed like a pleasure for him to watch these elves fight valiantly and then fall and die one by one, and he was happy to see his Scourge legion tear through the enemy's defenses like wild beasts. And he himself doesn't even need to lift a finger.

The elves retreated, and in front of them, there was a second line of defense that had been prepared long ago, located outside the city of Yangquan City, and heavily armed elven guards were standing behind rows of wooden stakes, waiting to meet their teammates.

Despite their reluctance to see it, Sylvanas and her team of rangers soon appeared on the horizon, covered in wounds and soft leather armor stained with the black blood and juice of the undead zombies. A disgusting rancid smell permeated the entire front-line positions.

"Oh my God, Sylvanas, what's going on up ahead? You guys stepped back so quickly? ”

Silvermoon Mage Natal asked anxiously.

"Our magical barrier has been broken, someone has betrayed us, we must have troops to reinforce Terras, Andalus and Ann Ovien, Arthas must have information about the Key of March, the next step, he will divide his troops into three ways to capture the three crystals, and the guard must be strengthened!"

Sylvanas panted and said that the Key of March she was talking about was actually a magic weapon that was divided into three crystals, each of which was hidden in different locations in Quel'Thalas, and magic flowed between the three crystals, forming an energy field between the crystals, protecting Quel'Thalas from foreign enemies. Now, all Arthas has to do is send an army to find and destroy the three crystals, and then the energy field that protects Quel'Thalas will be gone. At that time, the Scourge will be able to enter the forests of Quel'Thalas and Silvermoon City at the northern end.
