Chapter Twenty-Four: This Continuing ......... (3rd Update)

"A little over a week ago, we were still working on the frozen soil on the farm. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Although the conditions are very difficult, as the people of the tribe, we can all endure the difficult conditions. ”

"After a few months of reclamation, we have cultivated a fertile land on the farm, where we are raising domestic pigs. Because the farm is located some distance from Warsong Keep, a small squad of scouts is stationed here to keep the farm safe. ”

"In the beginning, there were mammoths who came here to try to raid the farms, but we were quickly repulsed, and after that, no unfriendly natives of the land came to attack us. Because of this, we let our guard down. ”

"A little over a week ago, during my routine search, I noticed that something was wrong with a domestic pig. At first, the caretaker who took care of the animals told me that it was just that the pigs were not adapted to the environment. I didn't pay attention at the time, but when I found out that the number of pigs was lower than expected, I learned from the caretaker that the mortality rate of pigs in the recent period was much higher than in the previous months. ”

"At that time, I didn't think about natural disasters, but the next time, I noticed that some of my acquaintances were in bad health for some reason. Some even fell ill in bed, and at this time I felt that something was wrong. When I went to visit a compatriot who had fallen ill, I realized that something was very wrong with my compatriot. ”

"He was coughing incessantly, and his eyes were bloodshot." As she said this, Belmont shuddered at the sight of the orc named Top, and a look of fear appeared on his face, "The herbs stored in the farm have no effect at all, and I can only comfort my compatriot as he is suffering from his illness. However, just as I got up to leave......"

"My compatriot suddenly burst out and grabbed me by the neck. At that time, his gaze was like that of a bloodthirsty beast. Toph said as he subconsciously touched his neck with his hand. Ever since I put down my tomahawk and picked up my farming tools, I have once again faced death. It's just that this time it was brought by one of my compatriots. ”

"I wanted to reach out and push this compatriot away, but I found that my compatriot was somehow so strong that I couldn't get rid of him. Later, it was a scout who had passed by the tent who heard the sound and rushed in, knocking my mad compatriot unconscious, and only then did he save me, who was almost dying. ”

"After that, I felt completely wrong. Because my fellow human beings look too much like the time when they were tortured by demonic blood. However, the curse of demonic blood has long been lifted......"

Then I tied up this compatriot of mine with the help of the scouts. Then I hurriedly went to the other sick people to confirm that all the sick people. Both orcs and minotaurs were coughing, their faces were blue, and their eyes were bloodshot. Moreover, some people who take care of the sick have told me that almost all the sick people have the same impulse to violence, but there have been no attacks so far, and this is the first case of me being the one. ”

"At that time, I thought we had been poisoned, and then I sent someone to check the water stored on the farm. But there was nothing suspicious there, and it wasn't until I saw a shipment of grain that was supposed to be delivered to Warsong Fortress that I suddenly reacted. ”

"I stopped the team that was going to deliver supplies to Warsong Fortress, and ripped the sealed food straight from the Kodomon. The box was opened and the rice and dried meat were dumped on the ground. The food that looked like it was the same as usual, and to me, it looked like a terrible demon. ”

"Then I ordered all the food that had been planned to be delivered to Warsong Fortress to be stopped, and then lit the torches and burned the food that had been dumped on the ground. The food, which seemed to be the same, suddenly changed after it was burned. The grain that was burned produced a foul smell, and the dried meat was directly rotten under the flames. ”

"At this point, I understood that things had ......," Toph bowed his head and continued, "and when I rushed to the granary and began to inspect the food placed in the granary, I found that almost all of the food was contaminated. And those who fall ill are not sick, but infected...... Plague of Nature......"

At this moment, it seemed that the revelation of the conspiracy was revealed. The lackeys of the natural disaster attacked the farm directly. Without our knowledge, a large number of Cursed Cultists have been lurking in the farm since now, and those infected have directly turned into undead monsters and slaughtered everywhere on the farm. Even, nearly half of the soldiers stationed there have turned against each other......"

Top, the orc covered his face and choked up, "I...... We can't fight back...... Even the leader of the scout team guarding the farm was turned into minced meat by a ruthless necromancer using evil sorcery...... All I can do is while the remaining scouts are still resisting...... Let all those who are still healthy retreat...... In my haste to escape, I had the few scouts risk their lives to go to all the granaries and burn them all, and then I fled the farm with everyone full......"

"In the process of escaping, the lackeys of the natural disaster chased after them...... Our fleeing ranks were scattered, and many of them either died at the hands of the scourge or went missing. At last...... We...... The deserters found the cave abandoned by the mammoths, where they escaped the scourge. ”

"But we have nothing left for the haste to flee...... We can only survive by picking up moss and grassroots, and we don't want to abandon the seriously injured people, and we don't dare to flee back to the fortress at the risk of being discovered by natural disasters......"

Looking at the depressed, tired and painful orc in front of him, Belmont could only say to him, "Condolences!" ”

In fact, the current Belmont doesn't know what words to use to enlighten the orc in front of him, and the sudden disaster seems to have crushed the still strong orc. On his face, there was no tenacity and courage that an orc should have, only fear and pain remained......

"You go get some rest first, soldier." "We've brought clean food and water, and when the blizzard is over, I'll arrange for some of you to be sent back to the fort," Belmont said. ”

"Thank you......"

"You're welcome!" Nodding, Belmont stood up and walked past the resting team to find the leader of the Shadow Agent, Barsus.

"Captain...... It doesn't seem to be going well with your face......" The Forsaken saw the elf walking up to him, and asked directly, "Is there anything I can do?" ”

"It's bad...... The farm is over! "All the food is gone, and a whole bunch of people are dead." As for these survivors, they also almost lost their ability to fight. When the blizzard is over, you and some of your men escort the survivors back......"

"I'll take them back myself, and the rest of the Shadow Agents will stay behind to continue assisting you!" "It seems that after the myth of the Lich King's invincibility shattered, all of us underestimated the Scourge Legion......"

"Yes! The guys were playing Stratholme's game again, but luckily the orc named Toph found out early and was decisive enough, otherwise ......" Shaking his head, Belmont continued, "By the way, when you go back, tell Razger directly and let them check the fortress......"

"What's wrong?"

"The farm was destroyed because at some point there was a group of cursed cultists who unleashed the plague and destroyed the farm. I'm afraid that both the Alliance and the Horde will have Cultists of the Cursed God mixed in, and if they are not found, it will be fatal to the expeditionary force. ”

“...... I know! ”
