After a week, Aurelia and Rollin led the elven team to Lake Valrowingian in Hinterland. The tribal warriors were repairing here, and as a scout team, Rollin followed them closely.
Tirio stepped from the back of the line to the front, holding a copy of Lothar's latest directives.
"You've seen it." Rollin took the letter and asked.
Tirio shook his head and said, "It's not too late to see. ”
Rollin opened the letter and carefully read Sir Lothar's latest battle order.
"The Alliance's forces will withdraw from Hinterland this evening, and Sir Lothar wants to withdraw to Lordaeron and redeploy his defenses." Rollin returned the letter to Tirio.
Tyrio packed the letter into his package and said, "In Hinterland, it is impossible for us to resist the march of the orc tribes, who are marching faster than our soldiers. I think Sir Lothar was forced to do so. ”
Rollin said, "It's the best option, but Sir Lothar will be in trouble for us to do so!" ”
Puzzled, Tirio asked, "What's the trouble?" ”
Rollin glanced at the sad Aurelia and said, "After the orc tribe enters the northern land of Lordaeron, there will be two targets in front of them. One is the Elven Kingdom and the other is Lordaeron. ”
After listening to Rollin's words, Tirio felt a little guilty, and he said, "I'm sorry, our soldiers can't help you in the first place. The orcs have at least a month to cross Hinterland, but it will be a month before our soldiers reach Lordamere. ”
"No way, this is war." Rollin finished speaking, and walked in front of Aurelia.
The ranger and mage walked out of the group, and they came to the shores of Lake Valowen.
"You heard it all." Rollin asked.
"The league gave up on Hinterland, and they also gave up on the defense of Lordaeron Northland. These humans are unreliable. Aurelia exasperated.
Lorin took Aurelia's hand and said, "Sir Lothar will come to our aid." But now we need to get through Hinterland faster and back to Quel'Thalas, the Elven Kingdom needs us. ”
"I understand, let's go now." Aurelia clenched her fists and said.
The Coalition forces retreated, Tirio retreated from Lake Valowin, and they needed to keep up with the retreating Coalition forces. However, the elven battle team remained here, and they used the forest as a cover to advance towards the northernmost part of Hinterland.
The rangers were faster than the orcs, and by late evening the elven party had crossed Lake Valowyn, and they had overtaken the orc tribe of Orgrim.
At night, the fireflies of the tribe shone behind them, and the elves remained vigilant and began to take a short break.
The night scene in Hinterland was quieter than the Hillbride Hills, and if it weren't for the noisy orcs, Rollin felt like he could sleep peacefully on the grass.
Aurelia sat next to Rollin, looking at the twin moons in the night sky. Rollin lay on his back on the grass and dozed off.
With his left ear on the ground, Rollin had less than ten minutes of sleep when he was awakened by the sound of flat horses' hooves.
He immediately stood up, unleashing the divinity of a magician to detect danger.
Sure enough, less than two thousand meters away from him, a cavalry contingent was approaching them.
Luo Lin thought that they had exceeded the tribe enough distance, but this cavalry team still did not give them a chance to rest.
"Prepare for battle." Aurelia listened to Rollin's account, and all the elven rangers and warriors retreated to the unique deciduous forest of Hinterland, where they hid.
The knights were running fast, and by the light of the moon, Rollin unleashed his Eagle Eye and quickly discovered the path of the creatures.
"It's the Death Knight." Rollin said.
She had already fought these knights a few times, but Aurelia was still a little nervous, and she said, "They found us?" ”
Rollin dispelled Aurelia's concerns: "No, they may have marched as a scout. But it's worth noting the Death Knight in the lead, he looks special! ”
Aurelia also saw the lead Death Knight, and she said, "It's just that the outfit is different, and in my opinion, he's no different from other Death Knights." ”
Rollin's divine ability felt the dark power contained in his body, and the breath of the dead was mixed with shadows, and the power of this Death Knight was stronger than the twenty Death Knight behind him combined.
Under the night sky, black ghostly apparitions were running at a rapid pace, and they received orders from Gul'dan that their true masters needed them.
After the leader of Talon Bloodfiend reported to Orgrim, Orgrim told them to get out of the tribe as soon as possible. There was no fight now, and Orgrim didn't want to see these dead bodies with the smell of decay all over their bodies.
With a gesture, Talon Bloodseeker told the other Death Knights to move on. And he stopped on the plain, and he seemed to have found something.
Although the body of the Death Knight is that of a human knight, hidden in this dead body is a warlock of the Shadow Council. He was a confidant of Gul'dan.
Possessing the dark powers of both Shadow and Necromancy, the Talon Blood Demon sensed other forces that flickered around him. These seemingly orderly and pure magical energies attracted him. He discovers a magician and a team of creatures that are different from humans.
"He found us." Luo Lin reflected for the first time.
Aurelia took off her golden longbow and said, "Kill him!" ”
"No, ordinary bows and arrows can't hurt him, his body has long been decayed, the flesh and blood of the death knight is just a flexible cover for him, if you want to kill him, you can only rely on powerful spells to tear his soul apart. Tyr and I will deal with him. Rollin said.
"You have to do it yourself, I still have these magic arrows, I can help you." Aurelia said.
"yes, find your chance and shoot him through his head with these magic arrows!" Rollin squeezed Aurelia's hand and stepped out of the deciduous forest, "Tyr, old ways! ”
The Death Knight, with the reins in his hand, slowly approached the two magicians.
"Unfortunately, I found you." Talon Bloodfiend said.
Luo Lin sneered: "The first Death Knight that was created looks much stronger than those Death Knight who landed in Nanhai Town. ”
Talon Bloodfiend waved his lava-burning greatsword and said in a deep voice to the mage in front of him, "Thank you for the compliment, but it doesn't trade your life!" ”
