The land was vast, and in the face of the scattered crowd, Ares charged again.

The warhorse gasped, and the paladin summoned the light.

"Holy Light, save these innocent people!"

The next moment, the domineering golden light once again lifted the dense dark clouds and sprinkled on Ares, as if he himself was the representative of the Holy Light, the messenger of the Holy Light.

"Behold, it is a paladin!"

"We're saved!"

The crowd erupted in cheers, the only hope in the darkness. It is like an angel stretching out a glorious hand to rescue people from the brink of death.

"O Holy Light! Please give me the strength to have the courage to stand up to the darkness. ”

Ares shouted.

An incomparably bright light suddenly enveloped Ares, and the orcs, minotaurs, and trolls in front of him hurriedly stretched out their hands to cover their eyes. The light was so bright that they couldn't even open their eyes.

At the same time, seeing the arrival of the paladin, the bipedal wyvern in the air also stopped pursuing the Alliance soldiers, and that pure light hit straight ahead, seemingly piercing the clouds and penetrating the darkness.

A hymn of hope, the ground beneath Ares' feet began to burn, and that day, the scene of the Battle of the Alpine Fortress seemed to be repeated.

Many of the tribal warriors halted their pursuit, and Jean and the werewolf forces behind him formed a steel defense line to block the further pursuit of the other tribal soldiers.

The Holy Light Knights, many tribal warriors stopped in place, looking at the incomparably domineering light, in their hearts, there was even a shadow, that day, Ares rode alone, leading the desperate alliance to kill the tribal alliance. The scene of that day still seemed to linger in their minds.

"Look at what? Pursuit! ”

"If you want to go, I won't go."

Several orc warriors stood in place, watching as the golden light formed a barrier of divine light that covered the retreat of the Alliance soldiers. An orc veteran roared and asked the warriors around him to charge with him and continue to hunt down the Alliance deserters, but the GIs around him stood still and muttered that they would not attack again.

In desperation, the orc veterans could only stand in place and watch. His men were reluctant to attack, and he himself rushed forward to seek death. Behind Ares stood a row of werewolves......

……

At sunset, Ares walked to a small plateau, picked up Gianna, who was already tired and fell to the ground, and carried her to the horse.

……

Night, coalition makeshift camp.

"We escaped, am I still alive?"

Gianna woke up from her sleep, looked at the bleak scene around her, and asked sadly.

"Yes, of the 130,000 Alliance soldiers, only 30,000 came back alive."

Ares replied with a sigh.

"My father?"

"Don't worry, he's fine, just a little skin trauma."

"That earthquake, that terrible earthquake ruined everything......"

Gianna said, as if recalling what she had seen not long ago. It was an apocalyptic scene where the orc shaman summoned a terrifying elemental wrath. An earthquake was triggered, and countless Alliance soldiers were swallowed up by the angry earth in just a few minutes. No amount of powerful spells can achieve this, but with the power of the elements, shamans can. Of course, they generally don't do this lightly. Thrall wants to protect his own people, of course, on the side of the Alliance, no one will think so, they will only see the orc who summoned this earthquake as a murderer.

"Well, let the past pass, and you should rest well, my dear. In the future, there are still many things waiting for us to plan and prepare. ”

Looking at Gianna with a tired face, Ares whispered comfort. It was as if they had gone back to that year, when they met in Gilneth and in the Silver Pine Forest. At that time, Ares looked at her like this, gentle and caring. A warm and ambiguous atmosphere is created in the mist and rain. Although Ares's gaze was still a little obscene at that time, staring at some of the girl's bulges.

"Many things...... Indeed, there is much more...... Will the Horde fight back? ”

Gianna broke the ambiguous atmosphere at the moment, surrounded by guards, and it was not good to kiss or something at this time.

"Perhaps, I've got Jean ready with all the supplies and food to defend the city, and some artillery and ballistas have been reloaded onto the ship, and in the worst case we may have to retreat back to sea."

Ares said, with a sigh. The originally good situation was stirred up by Dai Lin and became extremely passive.

……

A few weeks later, Ares and Gianna returned to the Alpine Fortress, the Alliance's bridgehead in Karimdor that was now almost repaired. Drains, moats, stake traps, forts, turrets, main forts, sub-castles, outer walls, and inner walls. To facilitate the entry and exit of supplies, the soldiers of Kurtilas and Gilneth also dug a narrow canal that connected it to the open sea. In case the castle is besieged, the navy can continue to bring supplies and food into the city. Guarantee the food supply of the castle.

Inside the castle, there are also complete living and entertainment trade facilities, a small theater and a medium-sized market. Looking at the stone walls and towers around him, and the Union soldiers patrolling back and forth in neat and bright silver armor, Ares had the illusion of being back in time to the European Middle Ages.

Dalin's injuries also improved after returning to the fort, and in fact, that day, Ares deceived Gianna. In the siege of Orgrimmar, Dalein's injuries were severe, and both legs were almost crushed. The soldiers carried him off the battlefield, and it took nearly a week for the priests to treat him before his leg bones slowly healed. The pain during this period is self-evident.

Of course, Ares can heal him, it's just a matter of a mouthful of great holy light, but because he was unhappy with Dalin's crazy behavior, Ares didn't do that, but let the priest use the recovery technique to slowly heal him, which was a punishment for Dalin's reckless behavior. And after the battle of Orgrimmar, Kul Tiras's vitality can be described as devastated. Jean hurriedly ordered his men to return after the battle, and transferred the garrison corps that remained in Gilneth to this fortress on the other side of the ocean.

Perhaps the Horde had also suffered heavy losses in the Battle of Orgrimmar, or perhaps because the Alliance's castle had been built, and the siege would once again cause a large number of casualties, and the gains would outweigh the losses, Thrall did not send a large army to attack the Alpine Castle in the following months. It also gave the league a respite.

But peace talks are still impossible, as long as Dai Lin is in ......
