Chapter 43: Through the Gate of Darkness I

In the new week, ask for wave recommendation tickets and subscriptions, and everyone will keep it in their hands. There is one more chapter today.

"This is the third batch of supplies, General Tulayan." The captain of the Soldier Guard, who was transporting supplies from Stormwind, jumped out of the wagon and reported to Tulayan.

Tulayan nodded, patted the sack of food on the carriage and said, "Go get some water." ”

Seeing the commander-in-chief's solemn face, the soldier shrugged his shoulders and didn't say much.

Yesterday's meeting made Tulayan's heart very irritable. The commanders, the soldiers, and the mages had their own opinions, and they quarreled for hours in the meeting, and finally broke up.

As the current commander-in-chief of the coalition army, a true commander-in-chief, Tulayan felt the pressure like never before. He suddenly missed the time when he had fought with Sir Lothar in the north and south, when he was just a paladin, a soldier. Now it was different, and Tulayan began to understand what kind of responsibilities Sir Lothar was carrying.

"Tulayan, what are you doing standing here?" The Magister stood behind Tulayan and handed him a glass of water.

"Thank you. Lorraine, why didn't you go to the meeting yesterday? Tulayan asked.

Luo Lin smiled and said: "Yesterday I was enchanting the shield of the soldiers of the First Advance Army, I think that at this stage, passing through the Dark Gate is already a matter of saber rattling, and there are still some details to be discussed, which is not necessary." ”

As he spoke, Rollin slowly raised his hand and transformed the arcane energy in his hand into a purple magic shield, attached to the shield of the warrior who walked past him.

No wonder Khadgar didn't speak much yesterday either, it seems that the two Magus were thinking about similar things.

"What positions have our soldiers captured in the space of a week?" Rollin asked.

Turayan pointed to the Cursed Lands in the distance at the Watchtower, his index finger pointing from the mountains on the left to the Canyon Fortress on the right. He was still satisfied and said, "It's about the same as you said before, the resistance of the orcs is getting weaker and weaker. Compared to the previous month, the current orcs are much less effective than before. ”

"So our battle tomorrow will be smoother, don't be bored now, the soldiers are still waiting for you in front." Rollin said, looking at the Union camp in front of Fort Watch.

Straightening up his armor, Tulayan placed the Holy Light Warhammer behind him, and followed a group of soldiers down the aisle towards the Alliance camp below the Watch Fortress.

"He looked tired." Aurelia walked behind Rollin and took his hand tightly.

Staring at Aurelia, Rollin rubbed her shoulders and said, "The people here are tired. Both physically and mentally. ”

"I'm going through the dark door tomorrow, and to be honest, I'm a little scared." Aurelia shook her head, her eyes full of concern.

"We'll be back, I assure you." Rollin's hand kneading Aurelia's shoulder, turning into a caressing, he took the Ranger General in his arms.

Although there were still sporadic soldiers around who did not make it to the camp in front of the Watch Fortress, Aurelia did not shy away from Rollin. She graciously accepted Rollin's embrace.

"I believe in you, Rollin." Aurelia said with a determined look at Rollin.

Feeling the power from these bright eyes, Rollin frowned slightly, then he stretched his shoulders and said, "Let's go, we are the same as the soldiers, no one can be absent." ”

Walking down the Watch Fortress with Aurelia, they stood behind the Alliance soldiers, waiting for the ceremony to begin.

It was too official, and Rollin didn't listen. Lorraine, who was uplifting and encouraging the soldiers' morale, didn't care. As a soldier who walked through the Dark Gate with the warriors, Rollin carefully observed the faces of each soldier.

Exactly like himself, none of the soldiers dreamed of this battle. There was even a confusion in their eyes. No one knows what lies behind the Dark Gate. They are now only saddled with the responsibility of guarding the world of Azeroth. Sounds hollow responsibility.

"Soldier, cheer up, even if you don't want to hear it." Rollin reminded the soldier standing in front of him.

"Yes, Your Excellency." After the soldier was reminded by Rollin, he straightened up a little nervously.

Very green voice, which caught Rollin's attention.

"Soldier, how old are you?" Rollin asked.

"Seventeen years old, it's old enough to join the army." The soldier said intermittently.

Nodding, Rollin said, "I'm sorry soldier, you should have stayed in your hometown." ”

"No, Your Excellency, this is the path I have chosen." The soldier hurriedly explained.

His right fist struck the soldier's breastplate, and the corners of Rollin's mouth rose and said, "No matter who chooses, you are excellent." You, like all the commanders of the soldiers present, are heroes. ”

The soldier looked up at Tulayan, who was standing on the high platform in front of the soldier's guideline, and he hurriedly waved his hand and said, "No, I'm not a hero. General Tulayan is the hero, he will lead us to victory. ”

"I hope." Rollin ended the conversation with a smile.

After listening to the conversation between the soldier and Rollin, Aurelia whispered to Rollin, "The soldier doesn't seem to understand what you mean. ”

"You'll understand."

The ritual of crossing the Dark Gate ends with the voice of Azeroth. Rollin and Aurelia return to the Watchgate. It was already dark, and they needed to make some final preparations.

Golden bows, magic arrows, and essentials to carry around. Aurelia packed them neatly in a magic package.

Rollin didn't pay much attention to it, he just put a piece of clothing in his magic package and finished his preparations.

During the night, Aurelia and Rollin get a common break.

This week, a rare moment of leisure. Aurelia pulled three necklaces out of her small pocket. Each of these three necklaces is embellished with a beautiful gemstone. Aurelia placed the three necklaces in front of Rollin's eyes.

"Pretty." Aurelia said with a soft smile.

Stroking the gems on the necklace, Rollin learned that these gems were not expensive among the luxuries circulating in Silvermoon City. But seeing the smile and yearning on Aurelia's face, Rollin deeply felt the meaning of these three necklaces.

"It's beautiful, just as beautiful as you." Rollin said with praise for Aurelia.

Pursing her lips, Aurelia smiled well.

"Even though I know you're trying to coax me, I'm still happy."

"Don't think about it, I'm sincere."

Basking in Rollin's sweet words, Aurelia picked up a necklace embellished with red gems and said, "Actually, since the day I came to the Watch Keep, I knew that I would fight the orcs again. So, I wanted to find an opportunity to give these necklaces to my sisters, you know why, right? ”

Of course, Rollin nodded.

Smiling, Aurelia enjoyed the tacit understanding between her and Rollin.

Lorraine knew what Aurelia was thinking, and she felt that she could no longer protect the necklaces. She was going to give them to her two younger sisters.

Lorraine could see the elven text inscribed on the necklace: "Sylvanas, love you forever; Winlesa, love you forever; Aurelia, love you forever.

"Take good care of them, you need to keep them. I don't know what these necklaces ultimately mean, but I hope you can give them to Sylvanas and Little Sister in person. Rollin said.

Aurelia, who was sitting opposite Rollin, listened to Rollin's warm words, she thought for a moment, and finally mustered up her courage. She took the necklace adorned with red gems, walked over to Rollin, and said, "Come, I'll bring it to you." ”

"We don't need a token of love between us, Aurelia." Rollin said stupidly.

With a smirk, Aurelia stroked Rollin's cheek and brought him this beautiful and delicate necklace. After putting it on, Aurelia kissed it affectionately and said, "This is the necklace that my parents left for our three sisters, and they told me to put the necklace on him as long as I could find a spirit to whom I could trust him for the rest of my life." Looks like I've let my parents down, though. ”

Disappointed? Rollin looked at Aurelia in distress. He also thought he was doing something wrong.

Aurelia looked at Rollin's nervous face, she satisfied her thoughts, and then explained, "Fool, you're human, aren't you?" ”

Dare to tease me? Rollin waved his hand, and the night invaded through the crack in the window.

The lights went out, and the warm night passed quietly in the murmur.

Dark Portal.

"Grom, haven't you seen Neozu's face clearly? He didn't want to help us at all, it's been almost two months, and on the other side of the Dark Gate, we haven't gotten any help from any clan! Lexa struck the boulder on the periphery of the Dark Gate with the end of his tomahawk, venting his frustration.

Grom couldn't guess the thoughts of the current rulers of the Orc Clan, who had promised him to pass through the Dark Portal and conquer this new world once more. But the truth is, as Lexa said, they haven't made any progress.

"What about the Warlock? Where is the sorcerer who walked with us through the dark gates, let him come out to me. Grom shouted to the soldiers around him.

The burly orc tapped the chest of the other orc, signaling him to head to the camp in the south.

Soon after, behind the burly tall orc warrior, an orc warlock in shabby robes appeared.

Seeing Grom again, the warlock was a little nervous, and he didn't dare to look directly into Grom's gaze.

"The Shadowmoon Clan?" Lexa said, looking at the sign on the orc warlock's clothes.

Grom clutched the blood roar, walked up to the warlock and said, "In the Shadowmoon Clan, you are one of the few supporters of Naozu, now tell me what Naozu wants to do." I can feel it now, he has no intention of attacking Azeroth, he just wants to use me, the Warsong Clan. ”

Looking around at the orc soldiers around him, the Warlock took a few steps back and said, "No, it's not, Chief Grom. Neozu is preparing, and he is waiting for Tyrone Bloodfiend and his Death Knight to search for artifacts beyond this world. He needs the help of artifacts to stabilize the flow of energy from these rifts and then open the Dark Portal. ”

Another force came to Azeroth. Grom and Lexar glanced at each other, and the two tribal warriors understood a key message at the same time!

The orcs of the entire Warsong Clan and the two of them are nothing more than pawns to attract firepower. Simply to attract the attention of humans.

No wonder, the Dark Gate did not send soldiers and supplies.

A dull growl came out of Lexa's throat, and then, Resak laughed and said, "Tribe! The tribe is still ruined at the hands of you warlocks. Neozu, Gul'dan, since these warlocks appeared in Draenor, our tribe hasn't had any good times! ”

Compared to Lexa's irritability, Grom's anger was already burning. Grom thinks of himself more than Lexa.

Ever since he was in Draenor, he and his Warsong clan had been using it as a weapon for Naozu, removing the other voices of the tribe and obtaining the green energy-stained head for him.

"Neozu lied to us, Warlock. I'll let you go back to Draeno now, find Naozu, and make it all clear! Grom grabbed the orc warlock by the shoulder and lifted him into the air.

The warlock looked panicked under such brute force. He didn't know what the crazy chief Grom was going to do.

"No, Chief. This is not what you think? The orc warlock explained.

Grom didn't give the orc warlock a chance to explain, and he threw the orc straight into the dark portal.

It is impossible to freely pass through the Dark Gate without sufficient energy to activate. Now, there are only two creatures that can open the Dark Portal and master the flow of energy here. One is Naozu, who holds Guldan's head. The other is the human Magister Rollin, who wields powerful arcane powers.

Grom was devastated after throwing the orc warlock into the black shadows of the Dark Portal, and he walked over to Lexa's seat and sat down.

"Now, we're really going to be alone."

Lexa didn't panic in the slightest, he said calmly: "No, we still have soldiers. You can also fight. ”

"Another failure, I just want to go and break Naozu into ten thousand pieces now, and eradicate all the warlocks of Draenor!" Grom said angrily.

Lexa said helplessly: "It was we who betrayed ourselves, and we can't blame others." If some orcs had been willing to believe Durotan, things wouldn't have turned out like this. ”

"You mean, it's getting late now?" Grom asked reluctantly.

"We don't have any choice, the scouts have already given us a message that tomorrow humanity will attack the Dark Portal. They're going to take back this place, take back the leadership here. Lexa said.

The blood roar slammed into the ground, and Grom said angrily, "Then let them come!" (To be continued.) )
