After a night's rest, I left a part of the army here, and the rest to support the Fireplace. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info but before I left, I was still here, and let the defenders here simply build a tombstone for Kel'thugad to commemorate this guy's last humanity, or when the time comes, if there is a time, I can still have a confidant to accompany me... Well, it can be regarded as leaving a back road for yourself ....

Without that sad outcome, his rotting would be no real difference to me than throwing it into a fire.

I didn't think much of it, but motioned for most of the army to follow me to Fort Hearth's support for Ronin, and with our forces and Stratholme's army, we should be able to deal with the undead troops.

I thought so, but later found out that this was not the case, along the way I found that many villages have become ruins, and some of the undead army creatures led by necromancers on the way are also in the same direction as us, which shows a problem, they are also concentrating their firepower to attack the Fireplace Fort, I don't know why they fancy this city so much, but I am sure that my support this time is very necessary, Ronin did not get out of the body is to show the fierceness of the battlefield ahead.

I thought so, and everyone else knew the same way, so I didn't need to say anything more, and I consciously accelerated the speed of travel. At the same time, I thought of the question of whether to let Uther's main force help us, but at this thought, I still rejected the idea.

Yes, I thought that Stratholme should have a numerical superiority army, and it shouldn't be a problem to deal with the number of undead now, and Ronin is no more, as for others, it is difficult for others to quickly inform Uther of the news here, and even if they see him, maybe he is still on the border of Gilneth and will not be able to rush here.

So we continued on our journey, day and night, until we arrived at this place two days later. But to my surprise, the army of the undead actually surrounded this place.

"How is it possible, how can we have so few people. "Wen Leisa, who had excellent vision at a distance, immediately made an understanding of the battle situation, yes, even my eyesight can see the difference between the number of friends and foes more clearly, because not a single living person can see it...

Are we underestimating the undead, and all those Stratholm reinforcements have been sacrificed?, I wondered, but I hadn't started thinking about it yet. Because she was worried about her boyfriend's safety, Wen Leisa, who was impatient, had already rushed over.

"Damn, let's go. ”

I gave orders to the troops, and they, though exhausted, did not hesitate to give my orders and went in that direction to support. Perhaps the enemy didn't think that we would be killed on their backs, so while they were unprepared, we were able to meet the humans defending the city smoothly, and seeing that it was us, it was difficult for Luo Ning, who had collapsed, to smile fully, and to my surprise, after we looked at each other that we were still alive, we asked each other the same question at the same time.

"Where's the reinforcements in Strathom?"

"What, didn't they come? Didn't I tell you to go to their city lord and tell them to pay attention to the food coming here, and let their reinforcements come to support?"

"Rivendell promised me to send troops immediately, so I'll be back first, but it's been a long time since I saw their reinforcements. ”

"Damn, Stratholme is so close to here, he can't...."I lashed out at the lord, but quickly thought of another question, "Why didn't you tell me that reinforcements weren't coming?" ”

"They seem to have set up an enchantment nearby, I can't get out at all, and telepathy doesn't seem to work. ”

"It seems that he is still very targeted at you, so let's just wait here for reinforcements first, and I believe he will arrive soon. "I comforted everyone, and looking at the enemy surrounding here, I thought we could still hold out for a long time, but Ronin stopped talking to me. "Any questions?"

"Your Highness, I don't think Rivendell feels to me like it used to be. ”

"What do you mean. ”

"You know, we teleported you to Stratholme a long time ago, and I saw you when you were promoted to Silver Hand..."

"Yes, I know, we did meet that lord, what's wrong. ”

I asked, confused, and soon got an answer that shocked me.

"In the past, he was able to reveal some aura of holy light, but this time I didn't feel that way, he even transmitted to me a dark power similar to that of a necromancer, and it was the kind that was disguised, I seem to think that he exudes a powerful ..... this time."

"! The demon has taken control of Lord Stratholme. "Before he could finish speaking, I remembered the information that Kel'thugad had given me on his deathbed, yes, he told me to go to Stratholme to find his master, meaning that he was in the city and had become Rivendell, or had controlled him, either of which was the Dreadlord's specialty.

I now think that at that time, almost all of Stratholme ate the grain from here, it turned out to be premeditated, otherwise how could I meet him in the city at that time... As I thought about that image, I hated myself for ignoring Melganil in the first place.

"Arthas, what now?" I said that shocked everyone, but no one seemed to doubt what I said right now. So they waited for my orders again, and I could only think of one way to do it.

"We have to get the message to Uther, and since magic doesn't work, we can only break through. "I looked at Luo Ning, but in his current state, it was hard for me to imagine that even without magic restrictions, this mage would still have the physical strength to use teleportation. I shook my head and could only look at Gianna.

"Let's get a few people to cover your way out. ”

I said this, and she looked reluctant, but she only called out my name, and I rejected her.

"Alsace..."

"Don't hesitate, time is pressing!"

"No, I think I have another way, it will work. Gianna said, then took out the red bottle again, and after a few quick chantings, nodded. "I've told the Red Dragon that Crassus and his people will soon come to our aid. ”

"Very well, then we'll give them time, that's it. "Hearing this news, my heart was comforted, yes, if the red dragon came to help, those undead would only have to wait for death, and I looked at the granary behind me that was still quite sufficient food, the city wall that was quite perfect, the single siege equipment that the enemy was so clumsy that there was only a ladder, and the number of defenders was okay, and my heart instantly calmed down again, yes, everything seemed to be fine. Especially after resisting several waves of powerful enemy attacks with relative ease, I am completely sure that as long as nothing happens, we should be able to hold out for a long time....

But it still happened, the commander among them, that is, a lich with strong spells, was accidentally hit and killed by the power gathered by our mages, seeing that they were completely confused because of this, I mistakenly thought that we could destroy these in one fell swoop with our strength alone, yes, whether it was against the tribe or any creature, as long as the commander was killed, it was bound to be chaotic, so I thought of them again, yes, no one would think that there was anything wrong with me doing this.

But they are undead, and I ignore that they are creatures that can be controlled by a single consciousness. As we went out of the city to kill, I suddenly realized that the chaos just now was a complete illusion, and the purpose was to draw us out of the city. And that's not the only thing that scares me...

The few lichs in the lead chanted a spell, and Gianna, who had already eaten up the spell, immediately thought of something.

"That's the spell that Kel'thugad used to turn those Atrik defenders into undead. ”

"What?" I watched in amazement as she spoke, and immediately turned to the original defenders of the Hearth Valley. Yes, the scene I didn't want to see turned to my eyes, and the vast majority of the locals became undead. "Damn it, retreat and watch out for the people of Fireplace Valley. ”

I warned everyone that the guards and mages who were following me immediately realized something, but the soldiers of the other barracks who followed us did not......and then I saw what I didn't want to see, many of them dying at the hands of the 'villagers' without reacting.

The number of villagers who have transformed into undead alone has exceeded the number of living people. Looking at the vast number of undead inside and out, I seemed to recognize a feeling of despair that made me feel a sense of despair. Despite our best efforts to keep the sturdy gate closed, the undead inside have made it difficult for us. There was no time to pay attention to the soldiers who rushed to the walls, so the gates were quickly breached.

In the face of such a strong enemy, we instinctively gathered us together to fight and retreat inside, and there was nothing to stop their progress, even the rain of ice and fire created by the mages could only buy us time to gather together.

A burst of arcane missiles struck an undead beside me. I immediately recognized who would do it. Seeing that Luo Ning also escaped to my side unharmed and unpolluted, I still felt a little comfort in my heart, but his face was very bad, maybe the deceased had been his former relative or, or something, but I didn't think so, my adrenaline still made me roar at him.

"Where do you get the contaminated food? Isn't all the food here good?"

"Maybe a long time ago, some came from Stratholme. ”

“.....” At this point, I was angry and I didn't ask anything, yes, as Kel'thugad said, I underestimated Melganil... I no longer think about anything, but look at the form of war.

In this regard, I also deeply understand that another mage warned us, yes, the undead skeletons who charge forward are not vulnerable to us at all, but as long as they have residual parts, they can be resurrected by the necromancer behind them almost endlessly, although the combat effectiveness will be lower, but sooner or later I can be sacrificed, and once someone falls, it will not be long before they become new undead, and their combat power is almost no less than his life. I finally understand now what that old mad at Medivan meant when he said that the more we fight like this, the quicker we will entrust us to the demons, and yes, when we all become that kind of puppet, I think Lordaeron's demise will be soon.

I shook my head and stopped imagining that terrible reality, but tried to find a breakthrough as much as I could. But I see that everyone's physical exhaustion is no longer enough for us to engage with these tireless undead soldiers, and we can only rely on the spells of the mages to delay time. Soon, however, these spells began to fade away. And it was only then that I realized that mages were also flesh and blood, and soon they all collapsed one by one and even fell unconscious, and after the last mage was unable to use magic, there was no longer any magical support. We can only watch as these undead overwhelm us.

"Holy Light, what else can I do. ”

I don't know what else can stop them, now helpless I can only use all my strength to evoke my last faith, which is the Light, I don't know if I once truly believed in it, but I know that when I am religious, I may still be able to exchange something, such as the feeling of the power I received at the baptism in the Archbishop's Church, and restore the physical strength of the normal moment.

However, the goal is not me, but to restore the strength of my companions, and the price of twinning with them is my own complete overdraft, but before I really fell unconscious, I still showed relief, because I was not only because I saw that everyone was able to charge forward like the beginning, but also because I seemed to see hope, and I could already faintly see the shadows of red dragons in the sky not far away.
