Chapter 3: The Battle of Stratholme (3)
"Is this the East Wall Gate?" Darien looked at the gate in front of him, which was closed by iron bars, and jumped off his warhorse. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Yes, High Lord!" Saranor jumped off his horse with Darien and came to Darian's side. "This is the back door of Stratholme, and from here, we can go directly to the Plaza of the Elders, as long as we walk through the alley, it is the Square of the Slaughter."
"Very well, Saranore!" Darien's eyes narrowed, and he snatched the blade from his back with his backhand. "Now, let's go and surprise our 'old friend'!" The purple sword light flashed, and Darien swung his two-handed sword, directly cutting off the iron railing in front of him.
"Leave two-thirds of the men to continue the attack on Stratholme, and you will lead the team to continue the attack with Saranore, and Lord Soval, Hugh Belmont, and the Banshee Syox will take your men in with me to say hello to 'old friends'!"
"Yes, High Lord!" X4

Stratholme was once an important city in Lordaeron, and during the days of the Alatho Empire, the city was tasked with defending against troll attacks. Over time, when trolls ceased to be a threat to humans, the city went from being a fortress to a frontier trade place between elves and humans.
After a long period of expansion, Stratholm is undoubtedly the largest trading city in Lordaeron, and now Stratholm has long been buried in history like the kingdom of Lordaeron that was destroyed by the fall of the prince, but there are some things that history cannot bury.
It's like this tunnel.
"Who would have thought that in the middle of nowhere, there is a secret passage that can directly enter Stratholme!" Belmont sighed as she looked at the walls covered in dry moss and the dark, damp tiles. Although he could remember that Stratholme could indeed be accessed from here, in the real world, it was a long way from Stratholme's gates, and it could be said that it was in the middle of nowhere.
"During the time of the Kingdom of Alaso, this was an escape route!" Lord Soval, who was walking aside, said as he walked, "Later, after the expansion of the city, this place was abandoned, but I didn't expect it to be usable?" ”
"It's not just an escape route," Siox, who walked behind Belmont, took over.
"It's also a common passage for smugglers to enter Stratholme!"
"Xiox, how do you know?" Belmont asked curiously.
"Hey, my dear brother........" Siox narrowed her eyes and said sarcastically, "I used to be a frontier ranger, and sometimes I used to do shady things to earn some living expenses......... Otherwise, how can the Ranger's salary be enough to spend in Silvermoon City? ”
"Well, this is a blatant violation of discipline, right?" Belmont, who had been in the Ranger for a while, looked at Xiox speechlessly.
"Ha, who cares! If it weren't for the fact that the Silvermoon Council always used the excuse that there was no war ahead, we wouldn't have to hang out with human smugglers, would we? Siox scoffed.
"Those fools who fight for power all day long, always thinking about how to attack the prestige of the royal family, wasn't Prince Kael'thas forced Dalaran by those guys in the first place? Unexpectedly, when it came to life and death in the end, it was those fools who had traitors inside and ruined everything! ”
"Huh? You elves can also engage in smuggling? Lord Soval looked back in surprise.
"What do you think? Lord? Let's put it bluntly, we elves are just as good as you humans! ”
"That's it!" The Great Lord, who was at the front, interrupted everyone's conversation, "That's all for gossip, after this tunnel goes out, don't pay attention to the garbage that stands in the way." There are also three psychic towers in the city that maintain the city's magical defenses, and when the time comes, you will lead your team to destroy the Asali Crystal there. ”
Darien: "Baroness Annastari, you'll leave it to Sheox, who is also a banshee, to settle the matter." ”
Xiox: "As you wish!" ”
Darien: "Nerbuenkan is in your hands, Lord Soval!" ”
Lord Soval: Yes, Your Excellency! ”
Darien: "Finally, the psychic Maleki, handed over to you Belmont. ”
Belmont: "Understood! ”
"And in the end, Oryx Rivendell is my prey!"

Touch!!!!!
Stratholme, an iron door leading to the sewers in the Plaza des Elders suddenly exploded, and the undead who were roaming the street stopped and set their eyes on the broken iron door.
I saw that in the darkness, a group of knights in black armor came out of it.
Enemy!
In an instant, all the undead roaming the streets knew the identity of the comer, let out a roar, and pounced on the black-armored knights who were rushing out.
The knight who walked in the front drew the big sword behind his back, and slashed out a dark green sword light, directly cutting the several undead who came over in half. The other knights who followed him also drew their weapons and slew at the undead who approached.
The undead wandering in the square were no match for these knights at all, and in a short period of time, all the undead who dared to lean over and attack were all turned into stumps and severed arms on the ground.
"Go as planned!" After Darien shook off the blood stains on his sword, he gave the order to the Knights of the Black Blade.
"Yes, High Lord!" X3
"Melia," Belmont said to the Night Elves who had been following him, "lead the party, come with me!" ”
"Yes, sir!"
"Let's go!" Shiox said to the Blackblade Knight, who was subordinate to her.
"Alright, boys, revenge begins!" Lord Soval commanded to his subordinates, "But we must first get rid of some disgusting bugs!" ”
The Knights were divided into four teams, and the three teams moved in different directions to the street, and Darien stood still and watched the other three teams disappear around the corner of the street, turning to the remaining Knights of the Blade.
"Alright, knights, let's go settle accounts with Rivendell!"
"Our revenge begins with Stratholme!"
"We oppress all things!"
....................................................................
Maleki is the leader of Stratholme's psychics, a group of shadow mages under his wing, but they are vulnerable to the Death Knights who open their anti-magic shields.
The shadow arrows that flew over were all offset by the green anti-magic shield, and the curse spell against the living creatures was completely ineffective for the death knights, and these tragic mages were directly forced by the death knights to resist the shadow arrow spells, and rushed directly to the side, raising their swords and cutting off the heads of all these mages who had already become undead!
"Traitor, you're not going to end well, the Lich King will definitely ........," a necromancer with a broken arm yelled angrily at the Blackblade Knights.
But Belmont swung his sword without hesitation, slicing his body in two pieces, and then stomped his head into the ground with a single kick.
"Rory, huh!" Belmont looked at the dead mage with disdain, and taunted, "Lich King, hehe, your master has long since gone back to Northrend!" ”
After dealing with the pair of necromancers, Belmont led his undead knights to kill all the undead they saw along the way to a psychic tower. And here, a group of necromancers, and hundreds of ghouls, and more than a dozen abominations are in front of the Blackblade Knight.
A pale, gray-robed mage with a skull staff in his hand was standing on the steps of the Psychic Tower.
Pale Malecchi!
