As one of the most vegetated areas in the Outlands (second only to Nagrand), the Teroka Forest is a beautiful place with stunning scenery and birdlife. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ｂｉｑUｇE。 ｉｎｆｏ

If it weren't for the bone wilderness right next to Oakington, perhaps it would be as beautiful as Nagrand.

That earth-shattering explosion killed too many living beings, turning less than half of the Tyrok Forest into a scorched earth, full of bones and resentful spirits.

The area of the Bone Wilderness is larger than the area of the five Stormwind Cities combined.

The living beings who died here are not dozens or hundreds, nor tens of thousands.

If you count those beings who don't have much wisdom, there are probably millions, tens of millions.

Even if you count the sapient beings, including the draenei, orcs, ravens, Alliance expeditionary force, and some other low-sapient races, there must be at least 100,000 dead creatures.

There are bones everywhere, and there are resentful spirits everywhere.

The aura of death here is even worse than that of the Plaguelands.

Sean walked on the Bone Wilderness, feeling the strong smell of death around him, thinking that this place was simply a paradise for the undead. If Arthas, the Lich King, wakes up early and arrives here, then with the bones and spirits of the Bone Wilds alone, he can assemble an invincible army of the undead, and even use it as a base to conquer the entire Outlands.

After all, the current king of the outer lands, "Illidan", was still his defeated subordinate at the beginning. At that time, he was not the Lich King, but a death knight. Now he is several times stronger than before.

As one of the very few demigods in mortal form, Arthas, the Lich King, is an extremely powerful being even among all the demigods. At least the ogre demigod Grull and the like are definitely no match for him.

What the Lich King can do, Kel'thugad can do as well, though not necessarily as well as he does.

This legendary lich, long before he was a lich, had already established the Cursed Sect on the orders of the then lich king "Naozu". With the appearance of the undead natural disaster, he made an indelible contribution.

Without Kel'thugad, the appearance of the undead would have been at least three or five years later.

Sean gave Kel'thugad a task.

He tasked Kel'thugad to rebuild the Cult of the Damned, traveling the Bone Wastes to awaken the powerful enough dead to form a new legion of the Awoken, just like Sylvanas once did.

And this legion of the dead will be as powerful as the Forsaken, if not more powerful.

Maybe it can't be done in a day or two, but it doesn't matter, Sean can wait. He hoped that during the Northern Expedition to Northrend, this legion of the dead would come in handy.

Of course, before that, Kel'thugad had to go with Sean to the hall of Setek to meet the god of crows who had escaped into the shadows.

Beneath the crumbling walls of Oakington, Sean meets an old man.

It's not a particularly kind old friend.,It's just that there have been two sides.。

It was an ethereal spirit who had been outside the Mana Mausoleum, giving quests to adventurers, and had followed Prince Halamad of the Node back to the base camp of Voidstorm to prepare for the theft of the key to the Karazan door.

And now, he has good news.

"Your Excellency Master Sean, Lord Haramad has asked me to tell you that he has assembled an elite team of Ethereals, led by him himself, and is preparing to enter the Forbidden Prison in the Stormkeep to find the first key fragment. If it goes well, the news will reach your ears within three days. ”

Sean was a little surprised.

It's only been a week, and Haramad is really productive.

After all, this is not a walk-and-go trip, and it is also necessary to do detailed intelligence work, investigate the details of the three places, and make comprehensive arrangements. Any risky act, Haramed would not do.

After all, the Ethereal Spirits have now lost their ability to reproduce, and if they die, there will be one less.

Now that Harammet has decided to enter the Forbidden Prison, he is fully prepared.

From the Void Storm here, even if it is a full griffon flight, it will take two or three days.

The Ethereals are proficient in the art of dimensional teleportation, and they may be faster, but after all, not all places have portals. From Storm Fortress to Oakington, they need at least a day.

Maybe now Haramad has entered the Forbidden Prison and has obtained the key.

A faint smile appeared on Sean's face.

He looked at the ethereal spirit in front of him, took out a small bag of gold coins from the warehouse, handed it to the other party, and then said softly: "Excuse me, Your Excellency the Ethereal Spirit, this is a reward for you." If you get any new news, please send it to the Saytec Hall. I've probably been there these days. ”

After saying goodbye to the Ethereal, Sean made his way through half of Oakington to the Hall of Setek.

Before the explosion occurred in Oakington, there were many ravenmen living in the area and dying in the explosion.

With the explosion, the original Setek Hall was occupied by a group of Raven people with ulterior motives, led by the Talon King "Aegis".

Aegis is powerful.

He is a charismatic spiritual leader who leads a group of ambitious Raven exiles who leave the Raven city of Sketis and enter Oakington in search of a "God of Signs".

He saw the deity in his sleep and comprehended the revelation hidden deep in the broken temple of Oakington. The dream vision drove Aegis into madness, and he now claims to be the reincarnation of Terok, a divine hero of Raven mythology.

He fell for it hook line and sinker.

He didn't know that Tyrok hadn't really died, but had been corrupted by Setai's curse, and was now hiding in the shadows, like the god of crows, waiting for the right time to return.

The "god of foreshadowing" he dreamed of was not actually Rukma, the god of the sun, or Ansu, the god of crows, but another deity: Setai, the god of wind snakes.

This is the Setek Hall, which is the territory of Sete.

When he first killed Setai, in order to prevent Setai's curse from taking effect, the god of crows once swallowed Setai whole, thinking that this would completely solve the problem of the curse, but the curse still took effect, and even scared away the sun god Rukma, which shows how terrible Setai's curse is.

Setai's curse has been tormenting the Raven God, trying to drive him insane.

In order to avoid the curse, the god of crows voluntarily escaped into the shadows in order to delay or suspend the deepening of the curse. (To be continued.) )
