Chapter 173: The Plague Lands

After separating from Gianna, Song Zheng had to start being cautious.

He can now be said to be deep behind enemy lines, and if he is not careful, he may fall into death, and in this real world where he cannot be resurrected, he can only be an undead.

However, to his great surprise, he didn't see many undead all the way north, and it seems that the Church of the Damned has concentrated most of the undead forces near Talon County.

Once away from the battlefield in Talon County, a large blank area appeared, and Song Zheng could even take Catherine to gallop on the avenue.

It wasn't until two days later, thousands of miles away from Dalong County, that some sporadic undead began to be seen in the wilderness, and it was obvious that the siege of Dalong County was still a bit difficult for the undead natural disaster, so all the undead troops around had to be mobilized.

However, although he did not encounter any enemies, the surrounding environment was very bad, all the trees along the way had long since withered, there was not even a single grass on the ground, except for the plague, there was no green life along the way.

Song Zheng originally thought that he might meet some survivors on the way north, but now he has completely abandoned this idea...... In this plagued land where even plants can't survive, no one can survive at all.

Catherine, who had been following Song Zheng's side, also had a solemn face in the face of these scenes, and even showed a trace of fear.

"Will the whole of Lordaeron end up like this......" Catherine, who rarely took the initiative to speak, suddenly asked in a low voice to Song Zheng, it seemed that she didn't think that Lordaeron would be able to defeat the Undead Scourge either.

Song Zheng hurriedly smiled and comforted: "No, although the power of the undead scourge is terrifying, it may not be able to completely occupy Lordaeron, the orcs were so fierce at the beginning that they were not defeated by humans, not to mention that we have already gone to Quel'Thalas to find reinforcements now, those elves in Silvermoon City should have the strength to fight against the undead catastrophe, what do you know about Silvermoon City?" ”

"I only went to Silvermoon City once when I was very young, and I had the impression that the city was very beautiful, but it was not very good." Catherine lowered her head as she spoke, not wanting to say anything more.

Song Zheng remembered that she had said that she had been discriminated against by those arrogant High Elves because she had both human and elf blood, and even though she didn't continue to ask about Silvermoon City.

However, in his heart, he also began to worry about whether he could convince those arrogant elves to send troops to help Lordaeron.

As they continued to travel northward, the number of undead began to increase, and the horse that Song Zheng was riding had become weak due to lack of food and could no longer ride, so he and Catherine had to abandon their horses and carry their heavy luggage on their backs.

"This feels like walking in the desert, but fortunately, the strength has increased a lot after the level is higher, otherwise it would be really difficult to carry so much food and water forward......

Since they didn't encounter the undead of the brigade, Song Zheng and Catherine didn't need to use stealth to dodge, and occasionally encountered some sporadic undead, so they killed them directly, and they could get a little experience.

What made Song Zheng a little depressed was that he agreed to go to Quel'Thalas, which caused him to lose the opportunity to mix experience in the city defense battle, you must know that after he experienced the second city defense battle, his experience was only more than 10,000 before he could upgrade again, and now he has killed a lot of undead along the way, but unfortunately he still can't get enough experience.

After a few days, he and Catherine's luggage had become much lighter...... That also means that food and water are running out.

"I don't know if this food will make it to Quel'Thalas, and we'll have to get a magic ring with storage space anyway...... However, the requirements of that magic ring for the user's magic power are too painful. Song Zheng complained in a low voice, this way of carrying luggage with him is too primitive, and it is completely unworthy of his identity as a local tyrant.

"Some of the magic items that can be stored don't need mana." Catherine next to her spoke.

"Do you have storage power-ups that you don't need mana to use? But I asked Gianna, and she said that her teacher's storage magic items also need magic to open. Song Zheng's eyes suddenly widened.

"There are a lot of magic items in Silvermoon City that you can use without mana, but they are very expensive." Catherine said.

"Silvermoon City has magic items for sale? Yes, those elves must have stronger magic than humans, and it makes sense that the magic items made are better than humans. Song Zheng's heart immediately became excited, as a local tyrant, there is nothing more exciting than shopping.

The magic items he had purchased in Dalaran had been almost consumed by him, and now he was going to Silvermoon City to sweep the goods.

But Catherine's next words immediately left him speechless.

"Silvermoon City doesn't seem to accept human gold coins, they use some magic gems to trade."

"Don't use gold? Don't those elves be so bad......"

"It seems that you can also trade some other rare things, didn't the previous General Harrison ask you to go to that Miss Elena first, maybe you can ask her to borrow some magic gems." Catherine suggested.

"That's right, don't lose that dagger, and Sylvanas seems to have said that she would welcome me to Silvermoon City, and I can borrow some money from her when the time comes."

After another two days, the heavy luggage has become light and fluttery, and it can even be carried in your hands at will, and the surrounding environment has become worse.

There used to be some dead trees, but now there are no dead trees, and in the wilderness you can only see some strange mushrooms, gray-black in appearance, two or three meters high, and surrounded by a green mist, which looks like it can emit a plague.

In addition to this, animals began to appear in the wilderness...... That's giant plague bats and plague dogs!

"I don't know how effective these plague bats and plague dogs are?" Song Zheng didn't dare to alarm those plague dogs covered in flaming red, and he could only try his best to avoid those plague bats hovering in the air, so as not to attract the attention of the undead.

But despite his caution, he quickly ran into trouble...... He and Catherine are blocked in their way by a strange building, a psychic tower!
