Chapter 7: Rebuilding the Alliance (Part II)
Standing on the wall of Greymane, standing in the wind, blowing in the breeze, Rex was expressionless, but his heart was not as calm as he looked.
Lordaeron's army of undead disasters has been gathering for a while, and on the surface, Arthas has the meaning of leaving the land of Lordaeron, but Arthas has been slow to move in the main city of Lordaeron, which makes Rex have a faint anxiety in his heart, and as time passes, the time that Rex can wait gradually decreases.
The one-month deadline is still more than ten days away, and it has already come.
In the past few days, Rex has been looking for a reason, how to continue to delay time, and finally it all turned into a sigh, Rex gave up, and Arthas dragged on, he is definitely not an opponent.
The army of the undead in Arthas, they don't need any food, they don't have the burden of supplies, the undead can do it, but humans can't.
These hundreds of thousands of troops, entrenched in the wall of Greymane, are too burdensome, and if they continue to hold on, Gilneth will be able to be dragged down.
In the last few days, Arthas still won't leave, Rex is going to change his plan, go to Northrend once, yes, you heard it right, it's to go to Northrend, Kael'thas has already sent news, the design drawings of the artifact, after meeting Magni, have confirmed the feasibility of the artifact design drawings, but just the artifact created in this way, if you want to step into the strongest artifact sequence, you are still one step away.
The one who has the most say in crafting artifacts is Magni, who is in the world of Azeroth. The only one of a great master of blacksmithing. Unique storage zài. He said no, that certainly won't work.
Magni, the dwarven king, asked him to build the strongest artifact, and it would definitely not work without paying the price, Kael'thas gave Rex a letter that was not very detailed, and roughly said the content, Magni had a condition. That is, Rex needs to go to Northrend once, and the specific content is not said, just let Rex come to Ironforge Fort.
After estimating the time, the time it took to get from the Wall of Greymane to Ironforge was enough time to walk back and forth and get things done, which was riding a flying mount, and the griffin was very fast. Like going to Dalaran, at the speed of a griffon. In a few hours, if you travel by land, it will take you a month to come back at the earliest, and if you walk, the time will be doubled.
However, this time, Rex went to Ironforge without riding a griffin, and it took a week for Rex to use the return scroll.
The portal was disturbed and now it can't be used, but the return scroll can still be used, this time Kael'thas spent so long, just to save time for Rex, Kael'thas has already marked the return scroll in the Iron Forge Castle, the letter was received by Rex yesterday, and he did not immediately go to the Iron Forge Castle, Rex is now in command of an army of more than 100,000 people, and the burden is on his body, if it is not arranged, the sudden disappearance of a day is a big deal.
Today the matter has been taken care of, glancing at Osborne beside him, Rex opened his mouth to speak; "On the day I left, no one was allowed to enter or leave the barracks,"
"Yes!" Osborne nodded and said in a deep voice.
Rex is more at ease with Osborne's affairs, and among the generals of the Knights of the Round Table, Rex is the most reassuring of Osborne.
Take out a return scroll and look at the marker on it, Rex took the mark down and marked it on the Wall of Greyman, this must be done, otherwise use the return scroll to Ironforge Castle, there is no mark here in the Wall of Greymane, and Rex will have to fly back on his mount, which is a stupid thing.
Put away this scroll to return to the city, take out another one, Rex directly shredded, the scroll to return to the city turned into a point of light, shrouded Rex, and finally spread to Rex's body, all parts of the body, are exuding a hazy light, the last virtual portal appeared, wrapped in Rex's point of light, with Rex's body rushed, disappeared in the virtual portal.
This qiē action, it seems to be very slow, but in fact it is extremely fast, all the visions are completed within 2 seconds, looking at this scene, Osborne's eyes are calm, there is no fluctuation, the city scroll Osborne has also used, it will not cause any waves, turned around and glanced at the empty wall of Greymane, Osborne strode towards the barracks, within one day, forbidding anyone to enter for the first time, this thing, Osborne will personally go to the town, strictly complete.
The last moment was still the summer heat, and at this moment, the snow all around, the cold wind, constantly blowing, so that the hair of Rex who had just appeared was rising, and his whole body was shaking, Rex's strength was good, but he couldn't prevent this natural force.
"Your Royal Highness!" Rex's figure appeared, and the dwarves not far away immediately came, and one of the dwarves handed over the padded jacket that had been prepared in his hand to Rex, and said in greeting.
Put on the cotton jacket, this unknown bearskin cotton jacket, very hot, after being put on, the biting cold wind, immediately did not affect Rex, moved, Rex only then had time to carefully a large number of dwarves in front of him, the dwarves who appeared in front of Rex, there are ten people, the height can be known from the name, there is no need to tell, the figure is not high, but the arms are strong and powerful, a battle axe pinned to the waist, it can be seen that it is strong.
"Take me to His Majesty Kael'thas xià," Rex motioned for the dwarf to lead the way.
As the main city of the dwarves, Iron Fort is the same as Dalaran in the magic enchantment, but it is naturally limited to teleporting such magic, and the portal cannot be built in Iron Fort without permission, but this point is not a threat to the city scroll, Dalaran can easily cross, and there is no problem with Iron Forge, but Kael'thas and Rex are not here to find fault with Iron Forge, so they naturally won't do things that make people hate, and the location marked by the city scroll, Kael'thas avoided marking the outside of Ironforge and suing Magni.
That's where the dwarven warriors are stationed.
It's very calm along the way, Rex's eyes keep looking around, the scenery of ice and snow is very beautiful, but if it's only in winter, it's just that, if it's like this all year round, the environment is too bad, take a look at the fierce dwarf warriors, the poor mountains and bad waters out of the people is really a famous saying for the ages, the dwarf warriors in the world of Azeroth, can be described as prestigious, fierce records, so that the dwarf warriors are among the strongest soldiers in the world.
The world has seen the bravery of the dwarven warriors, but not the harsh living environment of the dwarves.
Heaven is fair, and the warriors of Gilneth are not up to the standard of dwarven warriors, unless the environment of Gilneth is also bad.
Dwarves love wine, this is not unreasonable, in the icy and snowy environment, dwarves are not afraid of cold, but drink some high degrees of salvation, the hot feeling generated at that moment can make people warm, this is what dwarves need.
The higher the alcohol content, the more popular it is among the dwarves, and this is the reason.
With the dwarves leading the way, Rex made his way unimpeded and soon entered the Ironforge Fortress, a dungeon that was impenetrable during the Second World War, and although many of the dwarven fortresses fell in the Second War, the impregnable Ironforge Fortress, which sits on the top of the snow-capped Danmoro Mountain, has never been breached by the orcs.
The heat was billowing, the temperature in the ironforge was not low, and soon after entering, the bearskin padded jacket on Rex became a drag.
The dwarves who greeted him waved his hand, Rex did not have any strangeness in the Iron Forge, which was full of dwarves, and was regarded as a rare animal to watch, this scene would happen in Silvermoon City, definitely not in Ironforge Castle, dwarves as the most loyal allies of mankind, for countless years, there was no betrayal on both sides, dwarves are much better than the two-faced high elves, Lordaeron has changed dramatically, even if it has nothing to do with the dwarves, the dwarves have taken the initiative to send out an army, of course, this is in the original history, Now that the undead natural disaster has occurred, the pace is several times faster than in the original history, and the dwarves have not reacted at all.
There are also humans in Ironforge, but only a few, dwarves are extremely friendly to humans, which is also related to the dwarven environment, in this snowy environment, dwarves have poor food, so they have to rely on humans, such as Lordaeron and the dwarves' biggest deal, is food and other materials, and in exchange for weapons made by dwarves.
The most common trade except for food is wine, and the dwarf can drink it, but he can't brew it at all, and the level of brewing is far inferior to that of humans.
Humans and dwarves have their own needs, the achievement of the friendship between the two, the two are destined to not conflict, the harsh environment where the dwarves are located, for human beings, there is no need to occupy at all, human beings are not a race that can suffer, the iron forger is fought here, there is no dwarf ability, the weapons created, the quality is insufficient, why do this, as long as you pay some food and other costs, you can get it, this is why not do it, no one is a fool, and the teachers move everyone to do this.
Rex came not only for the artifact, but also to win the support of the dwarves, Rex wanted Gilneth to replace Lordaeron and maintain a deal with the dwarves, which Rex would not let Stormwind City take advantage of and win the dwarves' chances. (To be continued......)
