Chapter 175: Walking the streets of Stratholme

On the previous journey, Song Zheng had used stealth techniques with Catherine many times, and had avoided many dangers.

This also made Song Zheng somewhat confident in the stealth technique he had just learned.

However, for the sake of safety, the two did not rush into Stratholme, but waited for night to fall completely, and then used the stealth technique and cautiously approached Stratholme's gate.

Since the city fell to the plague and did not experience any fighting, almost everything was undamaged, even the beautiful carvings on the bridge were preserved.

Song Zheng carefully passed the huge stone bridge, and the gate of Stratholme was already in front of him.

In the history of Warcraft, it is here that Arthas should have made the decision to slaughter the city, and separated from Uther and Gianna, and since then embarked on a dark path of depravity.

Compared to other places, the narrow gates are probably the most dangerous places and the easiest places to be discovered.

But now it seems to be so calm that you don't even see any undead guarding it.

Although he didn't know why the undead natural disaster was so relaxed, Song Zheng was still glad about it in his heart.

"I actually came in like this......" After successfully passing through the deep city gate, Song Zheng couldn't help but sigh secretly.

Everything in the city seemed to remain as it was, there were even various horse-drawn carriages parked along the roadside, some shops were still open, some goods were stacked by the doors, presumably trading was going on at the time, and then the plague broke out and the whole city fell overnight.

The streets of Stratholme didn't go far, and quite a few undead began to appear in front of them.

These undead have no weapons or equipment on them, and they are still wearing the clothes in front of them, but their bodies have rotted a lot, and bones are exposed in many places, which is particularly hideous and terrifying.

However, when he saw that these undead had been wandering around those houses, Song Zheng's nose felt a little sour...... These undead are all citizens of the city, and even if they have become undead, they still instinctively linger in their former residences.

Although there are a lot of these undead, their combat effectiveness is quite low, and it is difficult to detect Song Zheng and Catherine, who are quietly passing by by using stealth techniques.

This also made Song Zheng breathe a long sigh of relief, if this was the case in Stratholme City, then there was a good chance to pass directly through the border gate to the north.

At this moment, a sharp and miserable scream suddenly sounded in the dark night sky, startling both Song Zheng and Catherine.

The sound must have come from inside the city, and it sounded like a living person!

"There are still living people in this city?!" Song Zheng was extremely shocked by this.

Before that, he had already thought that there were no survivors within a thousand miles of Stratholme.

"Shall we go and see ......," Catherine asked in a low voice.

"This ...... All right. Song Zheng couldn't bear to refuse.

The two began to sneak cautiously in the direction from which the voice came, and soon a strange and familiar large structure appeared in front of them...... It's a psychic tower!

"There is also a psychic tower in the city?" Catherine was surprised.

Song Zheng was not surprised by this, after all, in the game of Warcraft, there are several psychic towers in this Stratholme City, and there are powerful bosses defending them.

However, the psychic towers in front of them were different from the ones they had seen in the wilderness outside the city before...... This pagoda is even taller, with a height of at least more than fifty meters, which is extraordinarily grand.

"This psychic tower hasn't been built yet!" Song Zheng soon discovered that the top of this psychic tower did not have the huge crystal, and there was no dark aura, and it did not look like it was finished.

"That sound seems to have come from inside, I'll go in and take a look." Catherine whispered.

"That's too dangerous, let's go in together."

"No...... I'll go in alone, and if you're in danger, you'll get out of here at once. Catherine said very firmly.

"Listen to me this time, I have the invisibility ring given by Gianna, and it won't be too dangerous." Song Zheng insisted that he didn't want to hide behind a twelve or thirteen-year-old girl all the time.

"Okay, then I'll go ahead." Catherine hesitated for a moment, finally nodded, and then began to walk cautiously towards the majestic psychic tower.

The effect of her stealth technique is very good, if it is a little farther away, even Song Zheng will be difficult to detect his traces.

But Catherine soon ran into a bit of trouble...... There were very high stairs in front of the psychic tower, each step was more than a meter high, which was a big problem for her petite body, especially when she was in a stealth state, and it was not easy to jump.

"I'll help you up." Song Zheng leaned over, and then held her waist and lifted her up.

In the darkness, Catherine's face immediately turned red, and her originally soft body became much stiffer.

Feeling the elastic feel coming from the girl's body, Song Zheng also felt a little moved in his heart, but because he was worried that there were powerful undead guards in this spiritual tower, he didn't dare to make other moves.

It took the two of them a long time to climb the high stairs, and when they stood in front of the door of the psychic tower, a chill immediately came from inside the psychic tower.

At the same time, Song Zheng also saw the situation in the psychic tower clearly with his powerful eyesight.

There are indeed a lot of undead in the tower, and there is even a banshee floating in the air, and there is indeed a survivor, but the survivor is not a human, but a female high elf!

"These undead have captured an elf, could it be that the undead scourge has invaded Quel'Thalas?" Song Zheng was suddenly shocked in his heart.

In the history of Warcraft, the Undead Scourge only went to attack Quel'Thalas after taking possession of Lordaeron, and the purpose was to capture the Sunwell in order to resurrect Kel'thugad, otherwise it is likely that the Undead Scourge would have spared Silvermoon City.

However, the course of history in this world has changed too much, and perhaps the actions of the undead have also found changes, and even started to act against the High Elves early.

Song Zheng was thinking about whether to try to rescue the captured female High Elf, but as the High Elf let out another painful scream under the torture of the undead, Catherine next to her couldn't help but rush out, obviously because of the elf blood on her body, she still had special feelings for the High Elf.

When she pulled out the dual swords behind her back, the stealth effect on her body had completely disappeared, and all the undead in the psychic tower had already looked at her.
