"Oops! Good ice! ”

Maria let out a crisp whimper and hugged her head with both hands to prevent Marlon from continuing to rub it.

Seeing the little girl looking at him angrily, Malone smiled awkwardly at Vera, then nodded again and walked to the side of the subordinates who were on guard.

Maria is lovely, and Marlon has a lot to accomplish for cute children like her who won't grow up in the shadow of an orc invasion.

"Mary, why don't you say goodbye to Sir Lothar? Didn't your mother teach you to be a polite girl? ”

Vera gratefully glanced at Malone's back, then crouched down and patted her daughter's young face dotingly.

"But this uncle...... Mary didn't like him! ”

Maria hugged her head and said with a sullen expression.

"Why? That's Sir Lothar! ”

Vera asked, looking at her daughter in surprise.

Although he was only a civilian, Vera also knew that this young Malone? Sir Lothar gave a lot to the refugees, and when Marlon was wounded, Vera, like the others, prayed to the Light that he would recover as soon as possible.

Despite knowing that the child was unscrupulous, Vera did not want her daughter to have the slightest bad impression of Sir Lothar, and in her heart, especially after a brief close encounter, Vera thought that this Sir Lothar was a true knight, a noble man.

"This uncle is using very cold water to get Maria's head! And Mom, his body stinks! ”

Maria threw herself into Vera's arms. said with an aggrieved face.

"Stinky?"

Vera subconsciously touched her daughter's blonde hair, and then smiled helplessly, "Maria, when will you grow up?" Mom really wants to see that day sooner!

If Malone knew that the little girl with pink carvings was judging herself. He must have been embarrassed - Mary was telling the truth, of course, but there was no way around it.

The refugee contingent had been on the move, and the harsh conditions did not allow Malone to practice any personal hygiene; What's more, the only days of his stay in the camp were when he had not come into the world and young Sir Lothar was still unconscious.

In addition, I had just fought with the jackals, and the blood stains on my body had not had time to be cleaned, and these blood stains gradually became sticky and solidified. In some hot weather, it quickly emits an unpleasant smell.

However, Malone himself didn't seem to realize this, and he quickly walked to Paul and the others. Began to inquire about the condition on this side of the riverbank.

In fact, without asking Paul and the others, Malone knew that their road ahead was not smooth.

Look out into the twilight forest, even though it's daylight. But the towering canopy of trees blocked the sun. The weedy path leading into the depths of the woods was like a journey of no return to the bloody maws of a giant beast.

A terrible beast roar came faintly from the depths of the twilight forest, and Marlon's face became serious - the Elwin River was probably the only source of water nearby, and the speed of crossing the river must be accelerated, otherwise, I don't know when, wild beasts will come here to drink, and it will inevitably hurt these defenseless refugees.

"Paul. You take everyone to watch out, and I'll go to the other side. Hurry up and cross the river. ”

Malone said to Paul.

"Yes, Chief Lothar!"

Paul gave Lothar a military salute and said confidently.

"Well done."

Malone patted Paul on the shoulder, then picked up his boots and walked towards the gently flowing river.

"Daddy Elro!"

This time there was no need to take care of Vera's speed, and the physically strong Marlon quickly waded through the water, and found their leader Aero in the chaotic ranks of refugees? Eberlock.

"Sir Lothar? Can I help you? ”

Error? Eberlock seemed to be arguing with his daughter about something, and when he heard Marlon's voice, he quickly turned around and asked.

"I'm worried about accidents, so I want everyone to go faster...... Although it is unlikely that there will be any orcs in the twilight forest now, there will certainly be no shortage of beasts and the like. ”

Malone replied.

"I see...... Do you hear that, Althea, hurry up! ”

Listen to Malone, Airro? Eberlock's face also became serious, and he agreed to Marlon's request while scolding his daughter harshly.

"I don't! I'm going to ...... with Marlon Come with you, Father! ”

Althea pouted and said dissatisfied.

"You girl...... Well, whatever you want! ”

Error? Eberlock didn't have much energy to care about his daughter now, he nodded to Marlon, and ran quickly to the front of the refugee line.

"Marlon, what did you do just now?"

As soon as her father left on the front foot, Althea jumped up to Marlon's side on the back foot, blinking her dark eyes and asking.

"I've just sent a couple of people over to see if Paul has found anything they have found. Althea, you should listen to your father, go over early, now, the woman and the child are almost gone, right? ”

Malone looked at the refugee team, although there were more people left than on the other side, most of them were men, and the speed of the march should not be too slow, he also breathed a sigh of relief, and then persuaded Althea.

"I'm not ...... By the way, Marlon, did you think there would be survivors like us in Nightlight? ”

Althea's expression was a little evasive, and she changed the subject in a panic.

"Night Town...... I don't think so. By the time we got there, it was estimated ......."

Marlon shook his head, his expression a little gloomy.

Orcs had come to the world of Azeroth from the Dark Gate of the Cursed Lands - though the land was not named that way - and the Upwind Trail through Karazhan in Nighttown, in the Twilight Forest, was the only way for the orcs to march to Stormwind.

Marlon didn't think the townsfolk there would be able to leave in time for the orcs to arrive1, nor did he think they had the ability to survive, as sad as it sounded, but that's where war comes in.

"Oh......"

Althea was also saddened, and she bowed her head silently, as if in silence for her compatriots who had been killed.

"Let's go, if we go faster, maybe we will have time to ...... for them Let them be buried in the ground. ”

Ma Long originally wanted to say "collect the corpse", but he felt that it was a bit impolite, so he changed it to another euphemistic word.

"Hmmm! Let's go! ”

Althea nodded, followed Marlon and walked to the end of the line waiting to cross the river. (To be continued.) )
