Chapter 196: The Fate of Talonshire

In the game of Warcraft, the combat effectiveness of the thieves is still good, and it is even called the benchmark of physical DPS.

However, in this real world, Song Zheng found that the profession of thieves was greatly limited, and it was even less effective in terms of combat effectiveness.

Not only can he not compare with the mages who can be called battlefield turrets, but even the warriors far surpass the thieves, at least Catherine now far surpasses him in attack and defense.

At this moment, Song Zheng regretted that he had put all his experience into the thief profession, and if he had turned to the shaman profession, maybe he would have become a god stick similar to Sal by now.

Of course, the thief profession is not useless, at least its survivability is good, Song Zheng himself has life-saving skills such as sprinting and dodging, and even has a shadow cloak that can be called a skill that can be called against the sky.

"Is it destined to take the cringe-cating route in the future? Or...... Looking for an MT with enough meat? Song Zheng thought secretly in his heart.

Although he was now guarded by Catherine, the half-elf girl was more of a berserk and had an advantage against skeletons and ghouls, but she would not have the strength to protect him if she encountered a powerful enemy.

"These big fat people are about the same strength as the war bears among the trolls, but I don't know how many they are." Sylvanas had shot more than a dozen Abominations in a row at the moment, and as a ranger general, she had naturally dealt with trolls before, so she habitually compared these undead troops to trolls.

"The number of this abomination...... I'm afraid it's going to be a lot. Song Zheng hesitated for a moment, and finally sighed and said.

Abomination is indeed not very strong, but its advantage is that it is just a created weapon of war, somewhat similar to the arcane constructs made by mages, but the cost is definitely much lower, and it is most suitable as a meat shield to absorb firepower on the battlefield.

As for the Undead Scourge, the most powerful troops should still be the Frost Dragons and Death Knights!

"Oh...... In that case, we don't need to dwell too much on it here, so let's go to the Talung County you mentioned first. Sylvanas said.

"Okay." Song Zheng agreed with this very much, and he just wanted to take the opportunity to complete the upgrade before.

It's just that although it has been successfully upgraded now, the skills obtained are a bit chicken.

After taking out some of the Abominations and Ghouls that had rushed to the front, the trio rode away on the Dragon Eagle again.

Although there were a lot of those undead, they were all ground troops, and they were not equipped with an air force, so it was difficult to chase after Song Zheng and the others, so they could only let out some hoarse roars towards the dragon eagle in the distance.

The dragon eagle flew quickly in the empty plague land, and only landed to rest when it was tired.

There is no safe food and water for the dragon eagle to feed in the plaguelands, but Sylvanas' ring storage space is large enough to store a lot of food and water.

However, when Song Zheng saw Sylvanas take out a large pile of roast chicken and roast duck and other food, he couldn't help but be a little speechless.

He had no idea that Sylvanas, who seemed to be so cold as a fairy, would like these greasy foods, and what was especially rare was that she had been able to maintain a slim figure all the time.

After two days of flying, the trio finally approached the location of Talonshire.

This also made Song Zheng secretly feel that the advantage of flying was too huge, when he and Catherine rode north, it took more than half a month to cross the plague land.

However, his emotion soon turned to shock...... The county of Talon, which appeared in his field of vision, was turned into ruins!

The city was scorched black by fire, and curling green smoke still rises from time to time.

There's not a single person in a big city!

"Dalong County has been lost!"

Looking at Dalong County, which had become a ruin, Song Zheng couldn't help but lose his mind.

Although he had thought many times that it would be difficult for Dalong County to hold out for such a long time, he still couldn't help but feel sad when he really saw this scene.

The dragon eagle hovered in the air for a while, and when it saw that there were no enemies, it slowly landed.

However, standing on this charred black earth, the three of them were extremely heavy.

"Even the dirt is full of blood, and there must have been a brutal battle here......" Sylvanas crouched down and picked up a handful of dirt and sniffed it softly, eventually letting out a sigh.

"Well, I personally participated in two siege battles here, and that was completely protecting the city with my flesh and blood." Song Zheng sighed, and at the same time was very worried in his heart.

At the beginning, he brought tens of thousands of adventurers in the name of the guild, but now that Dalong County has fallen, it is unknown whether they will finally succeed in breaking through, and the people who followed him, such as Carl and Lena Imbas, do not know whether they are safe now.

"There doesn't seem to be any corpses left here, maybe the human forces evacuated on their own initiative." Sylvanas said after looking around.

Song Zheng immediately shook his head painfully: "No, those undead will transform all the war dead into new undead, there will be no corpses in the place they control, and their troops will become larger and larger because of the war." ”

"The Undead Scourge will transform all the dead into new troops? That's terrifying! Sylvanas's face immediately changed when she heard this, as a Ranger General, she naturally knew that this meant that almost no one could fight a protracted battle against the Undead Scourge, and even if she was defeated once, she would probably be at a disadvantage forever.

"Yes, the main force of the Undead Scourge is the soldiers and civilians of Stratholme in the past, and now that Dalong County is lost, I am afraid that the Undead Scourge will have hundreds of thousands of new troops." Song Zheng sighed.

It seems that he has not been able to change the fate of Talonshire in the end...... After the city is broken, those civilians and soldiers can only end up becoming the new undead.

However, in addition to lamenting the fate of the refugees in Talon County, he was more worried about the losses of the Lordaeron Kingdom in this battle.

At the beginning, the Scourge of the Dead obviously deliberately surrounded Talon County, wanting to continuously consume Lordaeron's support forces, and through this kind of battle, he continued to expand his own forces.

Now that Taloon County has been breached, it is likely that the conspiracy of the undead scourge has succeeded!

"It can't be Arthas or Uther sending a lot of reinforcements." Song Zheng felt a little uneasy in his heart.

The troops in the hands of Arthas and Uther are the elite troops of the Kingdom of Lordaeron, and if they are lost, I am afraid that the consequences will be catastrophic.
