"Darian, the question now is how much do you know about the underground passages of the Nibur Zerg? If they can't get through that passage in a short time, the Legion will be in a very dangerous situation. This danger is not only physical, but also mental. Human beings cannot stay in a closed and oppressive environment for too long, otherwise, various psychological and spiritual diseases will appear. After all, not everyone has such a good mental quality. Secondly, we don't know how many Neburu are still in this tunnel, in case we go into the wormhole and the other side closes the gate and besieges us, then the alliance will be over. ”

Standing in Ares' position, Jean said with his hands clenched into fists.

"War always requires adventure! Indeed, it is very risky to go through the dark passages of the Nebrus. But it's actually safer than the world on the ground. It's been a while since you've landed in Northrend, and you should know that the most dangerous thing on this continent is not the Scourge soldiers and all kinds of beasts, but the extreme climate here. Bitter cold and blizzards will consume you. You haven't really climbed the snowy mountains that cross the Icecap, and you haven't reached the real Icecap, and I can tell you pretty straight that the climate there is not as easy to deal with as you think, the temperature will drop below freezing, and you will shiver in the cold winds of the Arctic. Your bones will tremble, and your spit will freeze instantly. This is the land of the North. However, the Scourge does not have this concern, and the undead are not afraid of the cold, you must be aware of this. ”

Darien said grimly, his ghostly pupils glowing with a soft blue light. A pair of large hands covered in iron armor were as cold as ice. He spread his palms and brushed over the map, his fingers landing on a point on the map that was at the northwest end of the Keel Wilderness, a seemingly inconspicuous place.

"This is the entrance to the Nibru Underground Palace."

Darien said.

For a long time, everyone in the conference room was silent. Obviously, there is some truth in the words of the Death Knight. Wisdom and magic aside, humans are a fragile race, they have a short lifespan, they cannot withstand the cold and heat, and they are subject to disease. In the harsh natural environment, they are so weak that they are not even as good as insects.

"If you want me to say, don't fight. We went west, from Dongyong Lake. I have accurate information that the Horde intends to march from there to Icecrown Fortress, and it is said that there are many treasures buried beneath the Lake of Winter. There was a large number of fine weapons and armor inside, as well as a large number of precious stones and gold and silver. We can't let the tribe discover them in advance! ”

The silence was broken by Ironforge's Musketeer Guard, Captain Arrin. The dwarves' usual enthusiasm and regard for wealth as fate are vividly demonstrated in him. Brian nodded slightly in approval. However, the Hammerlord Furstad showed a look of disdain, in his opinion, his fellow dwarves still did not get rid of their greedy nature. The world beneath the surface of Azeroth hides countless treasures and opportunities, but also countless terrible dangers. The Copperbeard tribe still doesn't seem to have learned those historical lessons.

"But if that's the case, it's very likely that we'll meet the tribe at Dongyong Lake."

Sitting in his place, Ronin expressed his concerns.

"What are you worried about? Are you afraid of encountering the tribe? ”

"No, I didn't mean that, I'm just saying that the enemy is now, and we must work together to deal with the Lich King, deal with the Scourge Legion, and avoid all other conflicts that may arise."

Luo Ning replied calmly.

"Let me tell you, if the tribe finds those treasures ahead of time, then, for us, it will be the biggest loss!"

Yarlin roared.

His eyes seemed to be full of gold and currency. It is true that money is a prerequisite for the start of war, but in the case of dwarves, this is not necessarily the case. They tend to lose themselves easily in the face of a large amount of wealth.

"What about your opinion? Varian. ”

Finally, the dwarf remembered the King of Stormwind, and indeed, of all those present today, only two were the key. One is the Lordaeron forces led by Ares. One is the Stormwind forces led by Varian. These two forces are the mainstay of today's alliance. Stormwind has a large population base and strong strength, while Lordaeron has many free people, and it is a free and open country, where ninety percent of Azeroth's paladins and priests are gathered. It could almost be said to be the City of Light. And the Knights of the Silver Hand under the leadership of Ares can be said to be a trump card in the alliance. The opinions of these two people are related to the overall situation.

Only this time, the route of the Crystal Song Forest in Ares's mouth had been rejected at the beginning of the meeting. A crystalline forest? An unfrozen river? The foliage reflects the moonlight, illuminating the woodland like a crystal palace? When others heard it, they thought it was a fantasy, not to mention that it didn't appear on the map at all. So, the focus was on Varian.

"We're heading west, into Donghug Lake."

Varian said grimly.

……

Winter hugging lake, tribal camp.

"Hurry up, you shit! If you can't build this storehouse before dark, I'll cut off your heads!" ”

The snow stained the earth silvery white, and the tranquil waters of the lake reflected the harsh sunlight in winter, and on the shore, large red tents stood in the snow, which looked so dazzling. In stark contrast to the icy climate of Northrend, tens of thousands of orcs are sweating and working here at this moment.

As the commander of the Horde Expeditionary Force, Garrosh. Hellroar was now wielding a long whip, standing beside a group of laborers, whipping harshly. In the ice and snow, the labor made the orc laborers forget the cold. In the large battalions of the tribe, these unskilled laborers were like slaves, working endlessly all day long, and the slightest neglect would invite flesh and skin suffering. They went into battle barearmed, with only the lower half of their bodies wrapped around improvised rags. Doing the dirtiest and most tiring work, all over my body, either blood or sweat.

However, the Hellroar contrast as the leader of the expeditionary force shows no mercy. He even thought the labor was too slow to dig out more of what he wanted. Yes, they must dig up all the treasure and keep it for themselves before the Alliance finds out about it. Since coming to Dongyong Lake, the tribe has dug up a lot of treasures here. They defeated the undead guards and plundered all the equipment in the vault. But this equipment is not enough to arm all the orcs. They need more, and with every point they dig, they expect more. This feeling is like bloodthirsty, which immerses the orcs and cannot extricate themselves.

Looking at the orcs who had almost fallen into madness, Woking, the leader of the Darkspear Trolls, was worried. He even began to suspect that there was some kind of dark energy hidden beneath this land, which could make people lose themselves. But he didn't dare to talk nonsense until there was evidence. Before the arrival of the Great Chief Thrall himself, the expeditionary force was almost entirely hell roaring alone.
