Chapter 36: The Scarlet Crusaders
In World of Warcraft, Fort Hearthplace and Keldaron are located in the Western Plaguelands, which is not very far away, but in the real continent of Azeroth, it is quite a long way to get from Keldaron to Fort Hearthh, especially if you need to walk.
The only one who accompanied Su Chen was Uther.
Although Alex Barov chose to defect to Lordaeron, he still couldn't change his opportunistic character, and he was unwilling and afraid to go out of Keldaron, and although Ilucia was willing to go with Su Chen, he was left by him to assist his parents in reorganizing Kerdaron's defense system, after all, the current Keldaron is his only base, and there is no room for error.
At the same time, there are many refugees and wounded people who have not had time to escape and are hiding in the nearby mountains and forests, and they need her help to take them in and rescue.
"It's going to take at least seven or eight days to walk from here to the fireplace." Uther explained that since becoming undead, he has been silent for most of the time, only saying a few words when necessary.
Su Chen knew this state of mind very well, after all, he was the leader of the paladins, and the undead were their natural enemies, but now he had become an undead himself, if it weren't for the idea of continuing to guard Lordaeron, maybe this lightbringer would be more willing to give up his current state of the undead and die directly.
"It's going to take so long......" Su Chen pulled the frost sadness on his back.
He got a nice sword case from Barov's house for Frostmourn, a light armor with decent defense, and a Mithril longsword enchanted by an alchemist, and by the way, hung up his beard to regain his princely appearance.
The only pity is that although the Barov family is rich and has a lot of horses in the manor, they have all been killed before Su Chen and them arrived, and they have all been used as materials for dissection experiments.
Walking is indeed a very painful thing, the two of them have been walking for almost two days, and they are walking in a small forest at the moment, which can't help but remind Su Chen of the hard days when he ran the map with his legs when he didn't have a mount in World of Warcraft.
"By the way, what about my invincible......" Su Chen suddenly remembered Alsace's rather domineering mount.
In the memory of Arthas that Su Chen obtained, he did have a deep impression of the war horse named 'Invincible', and it was obvious that Arthas really cared about the horse that had been dead for many years.
Otherwise, Arthas would not have made a special trip to resurrect the horse after becoming a Death Knight in the game.
However, to Su Chen's dismay, the horse was buried near Lordaren's palace, too far away from here, otherwise he might be able to resurrect it with the help of the power of Frost Sorrow.
The woods were breezy but mixed with disgusting bursts of green floats, plagues unleashed by the undead scourge.
The animals of the forest have already begun to get sick from the spread of these plagues, and some of the weaker animals have long since died, and this should soon become a plague land!
This also made Su Chen's mood a little heavier.
Even though his presence changed something, the fall of Lordaeron still happened.
"If history really can't be changed, then the next thing should be Silvermoon City and Dalaran, and ...... Akmund! Thinking of this, Su Chen couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
The power of the Scourge of the Dead alone is at best to ravage Lordaeron, but Akmund's power is enough to destroy the world.
The power he currently has is almost like an ant in front of Akmund.
"Let's hope those Night Elves are good enough......"
Su Chen sighed secretly, when should he take the time to go to the Kalimdor Continent.
A day later, the two finally walked out of the oppressive woods, under the bloody sunset, with endless wheat fields in front of them.
In the breeze, the ears of wheat rose and fell like waves, which was the original appearance of the plague land...... Lordaeron's most important grain producing area is even more important than the farmland of the Hillsbrad Hills.
It's a pity that it's hard to find harvesting figures in the wheat fields today, and there are only skeletons and zombies wandering in a daze!
"Alas...... It used to be a time of year full of busy people, but now it's ......," Uther sighed, but did not continue.
Because there seems to be a sound of battle in the wind!
The two of them immediately followed the sound and rushed over, and the battle that took place in the plague land was almost certainly related to the undead.
The two soon spot a horde of monstrous zombies and skeletons besieging a knight next to a farm hut.
"It's little Abydis, let's go save her." Uther recognized the knight's identity at a glance, and as he spoke, he had already rushed forward with a warhammer.
Su Chen was slightly stunned when he heard this: "Abidis ...... The great general of the Scarlet Crusaders? Is the Scarlet Crusade finally coming......"
As he followed Uther into the crowd of the undead, he immediately saw the young female knight with a sword and shield and a ponytail.
Seeing her bloodstained appearance, Su Chen's heart couldn't help but feel a burst of pity.
Although the Scarlet Crusaders were extreme, their starting point was still good, and they were bent on recovering Lordaeron, and they were definitely the main force against the undead in the early stage, but in the end they ended in the annihilation of the entire army.
Bridget Abydis, the leader of the Scarlet Crusade, was a wretched man, following her father on the front lines of the fight against the undead, and after his death, she continued to fight until she was deceived by the Dreadlord and died in Northrend, the legendary female general still thought she was guided by the Light......
But at the moment, she is still an ordinary member of the Silver Knights, and everything still has a chance to change!
Although there were a lot of undead around, their strength was not strong, and there was no threat in front of Uther at all, and they were quickly cleaned up.
"Are you...... Lord Uther? No, you have the breath of the undead in you! Brigitte Abydis was at first surprised at the sight of Uther, but then became suspicious, and finally took a few steps back in fear, clenching his sword and shield in a vigilant posture.
Uther's warhammer hung limply to the ground, and Su Chen could clearly feel his gloom.
"Bridget, remember me? We swore together to join the Silver Hand. Su Chen hurriedly stepped forward to explain, and at the same time, he didn't forget to let the power of holy light fill his long sword in order to show his identity as a paladin.
However, this time, Bridget Abydis showed extreme horror, retreated again and again, and even the weapon in his hand almost fell to the ground: "Are you ...... His Highness Arthas?! This...... How is this possible! ”
"It's me, am I so terrible......" Su Chen couldn't help but touch his cheek a little speechlessly, Arthas's appearance should be handsome and handsome.
"You...... Haven't you fallen into an undead demon, or you have destroyed Lordaeron! Bridget stared at Su Chen,
"This ...... I think you misunderstood, it was a demon who disguised himself as me and assassinated my father, you see that I am still a paladin, how can I be an undead demon. Su Chen smiled bitterly, it seems that there is still a long way to go to restore his reputation.
