Chapter 276: Angry Undead

Stratholme is a new city in Lordaeron, and most of the people who lived here were pioneers with a pioneering spirit.

In addition, the city is located in the northern frontier of Lordaeron, adjacent to Quel'Thalas, and the inhabitants of the city can be described as mixed, and the security is not very good, which also makes the city an important stronghold for warlocks.

"Is there anything of value in the Warlock's secret base?" Song Zheng asked with some curiosity.

"It's not worth much, most of the warlocks are poor, but it is said that there are a few demons imprisoned there, the kind that have never signed a contract, and they quietly came to Azeroth through the spatial rift, and I don't know how they were caught before." Catherine whispered, she had been following Phyllis Fao before, and she knew a lot about warlocks.

"There's a demon imprisoned inside Stratholme?" Song Zheng couldn't help but be a little speechless when he heard this.

Such a demon may be of great research value to a warlock, but it is useless to others, and he himself does not like demons very much.

"Agatha, they've been researching how to better control demons, rather than being constrained by demonic soul contracts." Catherine continued.

"Did they come up with anything?" As he spoke, Song Zheng had already ridden out of the city gate of Stratholme.

Behind him was a burning city, flames and smoke rising into the sky, easily visible from miles away.

"I don't know the results of their research, and although I've learned a few things about warlocks, I'm not very interested in the warlock profession." Catherine shook her head gently, but the full head of hair rubbed against Song Zheng's cheeks, which made him feel a little distracted.

"It seems that the ideals of the warlocks are quite ambitious, since Agatha and the others want to find those imprisoned demons, it is up to them to go, I just hope that they can get out of the city after the main force of the undead scourge returns." Song Zheng sighed slightly, needless to say, the undead troops who returned to Stratholme for rescue were also in a state of extreme anger, and it was estimated that there was nothing they couldn't do.

"They have a demon portal, so it's okay to leave, but where do we go next?" Catherine asked in a low voice.

Originally, Song Zheng wanted to lead the warlocks to destroy the logistics supply from Stratholm to Andorhar, but now because of a coincidence, Stratholm was broken together, and it can be said that the original plan has already been overfulfilled.

"The next step is to go back to Andorhar, where there are still millions of undead besieging the city, and they will be very happy if we tell Brigitte the good news of the defeat of Stratholme." Song Zheng said with a smile.

The trip to the east here was full of dangers, but the gains were also huge, especially since he gained a lot of experience points, which was what he needed most at the moment.

Now there are tens of millions of experience left, but Song Zheng is not ready to use it immediately, but hopes to try to obtain the profession of paladin or mage first, after all, the two professions of paladin and mage should be the most practical in actual combat.

Of course, another reason is that he has not yet been able to obtain a way to restore mana, which will cause many of his skills that require mana to be unusable, even if he obtains new skills.

However, as long as he can block the attack of the undead scourge, there will be enough time for him to slowly study the magic and knights' combat skills, and he will not have to worry about the undead scourge and the invasion of the Burning Legion.

It's just that when he thinks of Arthas, Song Zheng is faintly worried in his heart, not knowing where the fate of that Prince Lordaeron will go in the future.

"Will Arthas become the Emperor who will lead the army and people of Lordaeron against the invasion of the undead and revive the kingdom of Lordaeron......

After burning Stratholme, Song Zheng was extremely relaxed, thinking about it all the way, and even began to think about how to explain his relationship with Catherine to Bridget.

However, with the fall and burning of Stratholme, the undead Scourge seems to have been completely enraged, even if Song Zheng and they have withdrawn from Stratholme, the gargoyles above their heads are still following closely, but those gargoyles are flying very high, and have no intention of attacking, they should be ready to show the way for the troops in the rear.

Song Zheng is not worried that the undead scourge will catch up immediately, the reason is that although the undead calamity is strong, it has a big weakness, that is, the speed of movement is too slow, whether it is a skeleton soldier as cannon fodder or as an elite abomination, although its speed has no problem catching up with ordinary people, it is far from being able to outrun the cavalry.

He and the other warlocks are now riding summoned warhorses, and priests like Afra who can't summon warhorses are looking for someone to ride in pairs, and the speed is still not slow, if it weren't for waiting for Agatha and other warlocks who stayed behind, they could still run faster, and the only ones who could catch up with them in the army of the undead were those gargoyles.

However, although the gargoyle has a good speed, its attack power is very limited, and its defense is very low, as long as it flies a little low, it will be immediately shot down by the magic of the warlocks.

A day later, Agatha led a team of nearly three hundred warlocks to catch up with Song Zheng and them, judging from her smile, it should have been a good harvest, but she didn't see any demons in the crowd, and she didn't know what the specific situation was.

"My lord, you seem to have really those necromancers this time, and when we left, we heard them shouting to hunt down King Lordaeron." Agatha laughed.

"Oh, and those necromancers have returned to Stratholme? Didn't they have the High Elves behind them? Song Zheng couldn't help but laugh dumbly when he heard this, the strength of that group of arrogant necromancers must be good, but that kind of person is okay to hide in the mage tower and study magic, if you let them control the army, there will definitely be problems.

Perhaps this is also the reason why Neozu still managed to turn Arthas into his own death knight even after he had a loyal Kel'thugad...... The Lich King Neozu didn't trust the mages' ability to command battle.

"We didn't see the elven troops, in fact, as soon as those necromancers returned to Stratholme, they immediately used all kinds of magic to attack, almost overturning the entire city, I estimate that the strength of several of them is close to the legendary level, in the face of such an enemy, we can only send demons to intercept it, and then quickly use the demon portal to leave, but they seem to already know your name, Lord Baron......"
