Chapter 261: Slaughterhouse
The undead in the city were clustered almost everywhere in the east and west, and Song Zheng quickly gave up the idea of counting the total number of undead in the city after estimating the number for a while...... There are so many undead!
In addition to the usual skeletons and ghouls, there are also quite a few ghosts and banshees in the city.
Song Zheng didn't dare to get too close to those ghosts, lest those things have the ability to see through stealth, and those banshees who wandered around the building had good strength.
Most of these banshees were mages in their lifetimes, and some were even priests, and they also maintained a certain level of consciousness and combat effectiveness after death, but they were completely controlled by the Lich King.
Song Zheng no longer had a second teleportation scroll, so he naturally didn't want to reveal his identity, and he had been instinctively avoiding those enemies who could pose a threat to him.
However, perhaps because the dock was bombarded by a meteor, many powerful undead creatures hurried over, especially those necromancers were almost attracted by the magic emitted by the meteor, and rushed to check the situation, and those gargoyles had already flown towards the dock to find unknown enemies.
A large number of undead troops were then assembled and headed in the direction of the docks.
Because of the mobilization of these undead troops, Song Zheng's activities in the city have also become much easier, and he has soon crossed several streets.
"There seem to be two more psychic towers in the city, and there are more gargoyles......" Song Zheng sighed secretly in his heart.
However, he did not enter the psychic tower, he was already familiar with the psychic tower, and knew that its function was not only for defense, but also for collecting those dark powers in order to supply them to other undead, and in the psychic tower, there were probably a large number of undead to guard, and he naturally did not need to provoke him at present.
Song Zheng began to approach one of the tallest buildings in the city very carefully...... That's the slaughterhouse used to produce abomination, and it's the most important place inside Stratholme.
Along the way, you can see a large number of corpses being transported in meat grinders, some of which are human corpses and some of which are animal corpses.
Song Zheng quietly followed behind a meat grinder, trying to enter the slaughterhouse, but as soon as he entered the door, he almost fainted from the stench of blood.
He managed to overcome the stench in the air, but he had to carefully avoid the rotting corpses on the ground.
A little further inside, you can already see the brutal scene ahead.
The whole slaughterhouse is like a hell on earth, the corpses will be disassembled, and then the undead acolytes will be re-stitched together according to the needs of the shape, and finally form a corpse monster several meters high, and then some necromancers will use necromancy to make the abominations have a certain consciousness, and even equip them with some weapons and armor.
"I really should use the magic scroll that 'summons meteors' to bang here......" Song Zheng sighed secretly in his heart, this kind of hellish place should not have appeared in the world in the first place, but he only had one magic scroll in his hand, and even Antonidas only had that one in his hand.
It is already very difficult to make magic into magic scrolls, and the more advanced the magic, the more difficult it is to use magic scrolls to seal, not to mention the difficulty of making legendary magic scrolls, and with Antonidas's status, wealth and strength, it is only to make such a 'summoning meteor'.
After retreating from the slaughterhouse, Song Zheng began to go to the direction of the city gate again, and firmly memorized the various defensive measures and troop arrangements of the undead along the way, especially the situation near the city gate.
Eventually, he left Stratholme with a troop of troops, and looked back with emotion.
"I don't know who the undead leader is stationed in this city now? It can't be a Death Knight......"
In the history of Warcraft, Arthas should be the first death knight under the Lich King Neozu, and with Arthas's crusades, the Knights of the Black Wind were gradually formed.
Now Arthas continues to be his prince, but I wonder if the Lich King Neozu has found someone else to take Arthas's place.
The dock wasn't that far from Stratholme, and Song Zheng quickly followed the undead team back to the dock.
When I was still relatively far away, I could already feel the scorching waves coming from ahead...... The fire caused by the meteor bombardment had long since been extinguished, but the surrounding temperature was still very high, and it was impossible for ordinary people to get too close to the dock at this time.
However, even if he couldn't get too close, Song Zheng could still see his results through the smoke and dust around him - the entire dock city had been completely destroyed, there was no trace of any buildings in front of him, and even a meteorite crater with an astonishing area appeared on the ground.
"That magic effect is really amazing, if there are a few more meteors, even a giant city like Dalaran can be destroyed......" Song Zheng thought to himself, but his heart was excited.
Even the ground has become like this, and the fate of those meat grinders is naturally needless to say, and even the abomination and elite ghouls who haven't had time to leave the dock before should have been completely destroyed.
As for the tens of thousands of undead troops originally stationed around this dock city, they were also reduced to dust by the huge bombardment.
Song Zheng began to circle into the distance to find Catherine's figure.
When he finally came to the hill where he had broken up with Catherine, he found that it had not been affected too much due to the terrain, which made him feel a lot more relaxed, and he had been worried about Catherine's safety before.
But when he searched the hills, he found no sign of Catherine.
"Where did this girl go? I told her to wait for me here before......" Song Zheng began to worry again in his heart.
Previously, due to the suddenness of the incident, the sudden appearance of those meat grinders caused him to return to this hill to inform Catherine and directly used the 'summoning meteor', Catherine, who did not know the specific situation, might think that he was in danger and went to save him, and may even think that he is still on the dock!
Thinking of this, Song Zheng had to turn back again, and at the same time began to eat non-stop in order to replenish his physical strength to maintain the continuation of the stealth technique.
When he got closer to the dock again, he finally found that there were traces of battle on the periphery, and there were many corpses of ghouls.
Judging by the deep sword marks on the corpses, it did seem to be caused by Catherine's attack.
However, there was no Catherine here, only more and more undead.
"Was she discovered by the undead and caught?" Song Zheng had a bad premonition in his heart.
