Act IV: The Aura of Evil
Locke rode the Animan to find a suitable high ground in the Arathi Heights, not far from Hammer Town, he didn't dare to go, a group of orcs and an orc are two concepts, once they anger Hammer Town, it is estimated that even the deadwood trolls will be wiped out.
Just as Locke was pondering, the dirt in front of him began to roll slightly, and Shashuo jumped briskly on the dirt, this unusual scene couldn't help but make Locke's heart vigilant.
The Arathi Heights are not safe, not only are there a large number of carnivorous beasts, orcs, wandering ogres, but also the four elemental creatures, I don't know why, in this land, elemental creatures are extremely active.
The next moment, a stone element came out of the soil, he was only about one meter tall, and his whole body was assembled with mud and stones, and around the stone element, there were strong winds carrying a large number of mud blocks, which was a sign of the gradual formation of the stone element.
"A stone element that is about to form, it's really lucky." Locke took the silver greatsword off his back and made an offensive move.
The stone elemental did not attack, it frantically absorbed and quickly rushed towards the stone, hoping to further improve its strength.
Locke didn't have the habit of giving the stone elemental to continue to increase his strength, and he clearly knew that if the elemental creature was given enough time, he would definitely die in the end.
The power of the bronze short spear was exerted to the extreme in all this, and Locke grasped the gap where the stone elemental was unable to move when absorbing power, and threw the short spear on his body in one go. The short spears made a "click, click" sound as they were inserted into the stone elemental's body.
The firelight kept rubbing against the skin of the stone elemental, and the stone elemental roared, it knew that if it continued like this, it would not have to absorb all its strength, and it would be killed by this human, so it took the lead in attacking and rushed towards Locke.
In fact, Locke no longer had a short spear, and since this stone elemental was in such a hurry to rush over, he didn't mind letting this stone element die.
The hand-to-hand combat between Locke and the stone elemental ended in just two minutes, and the stone elemental itself was already damaged, and with Locke's years of experience in fighting elemental creatures, it directly caused this elemental creature to fall apart in front of Locke.
"You gained 100 experience"
Looking at the stones all over the ground, Locke looked regretful: "It's a pity, there's really nothing out"
Elemental creatures actually have a drop that Locke likes very much, that is, elemental crystals, which can be used for forging, enchanting, repairing, and are good raw materials.
At this moment, the Animan behind him let out a vigilant roar, which made him turn his head to look, only to see three forest trolls riding velociraptors running over from the grassland.
"(Trolls) What are you doing here?" Locke asked curiously.
The three forest trolls looked at each other, then said in unison, "We want to follow you and earn glory." ”
Locke was slightly stunned, he didn't expect that he would be able to earn an entourage. You know, it's very difficult to get your own retinue among the forest trolls, even if it's the chief's son, before hunting, he only has two retinues.
"Of course, I need your potency, and you'll soon find out that with me, you'll get a lot of things you couldn't have thought of before."
Locke slowly looked into the heart of the Arathi Basin, and after gaining three retinues, a bold plan suddenly appeared in his mind.
"Assign all the experience points to the Death Knight."
"The Death Knight level is increased to level 2, your strength is increased by 2, your spirit is increased by 1, you have learned the evil aura, summon bones."
[Evil Aura]: When this aura is activated, the aura radius of 20x20 will be performed around you, and your allied units will gain 20% movement speed and 10% lifesteal
[Summons Bones]: You can summon a skeleton from a body to fight for you for 60 seconds
Locke took a deep breath, these skills were really rubbish, but for now, this was the only spell he had. You must know that when the Cursed God Cult had not yet spread, necromancy was simply an unknown spell system.
"There's still a chance, I remember that now, the plague from the north has not yet broken out, and the main kingdoms of mankind are still the six kingdoms of Lordaeron."
"Just kill Alsace before he goes to Northrend, and it won't cause a scourge of that size."
Locke said silently, then piloted the velociraptor to the heart of the Arathi Basin, where he could find some worthy targets.
After Locke turned on the evil aura, it caused a burst of exclamations from the forest trolls behind him, who all believed that Locke was a human protected by his ancestors, and it was possible to lead the trolls to a brilliant place and a glory of coexistence with humans.
You must know that thousands of years after the establishment of the human kingdom, except for a few die-hards, basically no trolls dare to launch a large-scale attack on humans, and if there is a chance to live in peace with humans, most of the trolls will cherish it very much.
The hinterland of the Arathi Basin is very quiet, and there was an empire born here thousands of years ago, which was founded by the nomadic peoples of the steppe, although that empire has now disappeared, but the remnants of human beings still inevitably recall the glory of the empire.
In the grassland, a pair of human soldiers escorted a High Elf girl, and in front of the convoy was an elven male in violet robes, holding a spell book in his right hand and a staff in his left. On the cloth of the purple robe, an eye was imprinted, and his head was held high, and his body was full of arcane radiance.
Locke knew the mark, which was the coat of arms of the Violet Eye, the mage of the realm of the mages of Dalaran, who guarded the secrets of the ancients. The soldiers next to him were dressed in Lordaeron's clothes, and their full body armor was also covered with heavy armor and walked slowly.
Lordaeron and Dalaran, what are these two countries going to do? This question suddenly appeared in Locke's mind.
The imprisoned girl was also a high elf, dressed in a silk robe, and the shackles in her hands flashed with azure magic runes, which she knew at a glance that it was not an ordinary product.
"Leader, let's give up on this goal, they seem too strong, and there are mages in them." A forest troll whispered.
Mage, in the memory of the forest troll, is really a very powerful creature, in the early days when the High Elves just came to this continent, the mage used magic, directly causing the troll to suffer heavy losses. In the history of the chanting of forest trolls, the mage has become the nemesis of the trolls.
Locke made a booing gesture, he was not afraid of mages, he had already decided that after this rebirth, he would not be afraid of anything in this world, not even the Demon King Sargeras standing in front of him, he would not be able to make him take a step back.
"(Troll) Listen, you three, there is a great honor before you now, and that is the elven mage, think about it, if we catch an elven mage, the whole tribe will see us as heroes."
"If you three do what I command, I promise you that you will be able to capture the elven mage alive. Everything is under my control. Locke said this as he looked down.
"Not convincing." A forest troll muttered to himself, "But I believe him, he has been blessed by the gods." ”
Liliana walked slowly through the hinterland of the Arathi Basin, the runes on her arms glowing with a dazzling blue light, imprisoning the use of magic within her.
