Stratholme, once the most prosperous city in the north, is now in ruins, ruined and desolate. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 infoIn the rubble, dry bones can be seen from time to time, and no one is buried.

A thousand kilometers south from here, all of them were plague-ridden dead places, and there were few people.

However, this cold wasteland is not completely deserted, and in addition to the scattered Silver Hand Knights in the Eastern Plaguelands, there are two militarized human organizations - the Wish of Light and the Scarlet Crusade. They are mainly priests and paladins, and they rely on the Holy Light to survive in this lifeless place, and occasionally organize patrols to patrol the entire territory to detect the movements of the undead natural disasters.

On this day, in the northernmost part of the Eastern Kingdom, it was rare to see the sun, and the golden sunlight sprinkled on the ruins of Stratholme, glowing with a cold pale gold, bringing a little warmth. A man-powered helicopter flew in from the south, scared away a flock of seagulls, and landed towards the shoreline.

"This should be the last good weather of the year, and then winter in Northrend is coming." Brian put his hand on the pergola, squinted his eyes at the blue and white mottled sea of ice, and said with emotion: "20 years ago, it was also this weather, and I said goodbye to my brother here. ”

It was the sisters Brian and Ming Xuan Shuling who came.

As for Brian's brother, he had already talked all the way, and the two sisters were tired of hearing it.

The Copperbeard family has three brothers, the eldest Magni is the current king of Ironforge Castle, the third is the great explorer Brian, and the second is Muradin, who was considered the best warrior of the three brothers, and even earned the name of the king of the hills.

At the beginning of the Scourge of the Dead, in order to find out the source of this evil, Muradin, who was still traveling in Lordaeron at the time, organized an expedition under the commission of King Terenus to cross the sea into Northrend to investigate, and there was no news of it.

"Isn't he already dead, according to legend?" Mingxuan asked weakly.

"How so?" Brian's face was full of disdain, "Muradin was the greatest hill fighter of his time, his body was harder than granite, I don't believe he would die." ”

"Harder than granite?!" Shu Ling's eyes widened in amazement, her expression was exaggerated, and then she seemed to think of something, and quickly whispered in Mingxuan's ear.

Mingxuan raised her head when she listened, and asked with a smile on her face, "Then is your head so hard?" ”

Brian scratched his head in embarrassment when he heard this, and snorted, "I'm the least successful, actually...... I'm not a warrior......"

"Oh." The two sisters nodded at the same time, their faces relieved.

As he spoke, the helicopter landed, and Brian and Gorilla Glebe jumped down, excitedly looking at the vast ice ocean in the north, and shouting.

Unlike the blue sea in the south, the water here is a deep black and blue, and the surface of the sea is dotted with patches of ice floes, and many sea animals inhabit it. Today is a rare good weather, almost no wind, and seabirds and sea animals are busy hunting, storing as much fat as possible for the winter.

"It's so beautiful here! Who would have thought that this bitter cold place is also full of life, this is the creation of nature! Brian sighed loudly, and Griff whistled and slapped his chest.

"Aren't you excited, two little guys?" Brian was a little strange, why did the two little guys be silent?

"Ahh It's magnificent! Mingxuan really shouted, and her tone was like singing......

The two sisters also jumped out and ran on tiptoe to Brian and Glebe, each carrying a ...... Stick......

"I know who can not be amazed by the wonders of nature!" Brian sighed at the sea of ice, he heard footsteps, but he couldn't see the two golden sticks.

"Yes, yes!" Mingxuan responded casually, walked behind Brian, and gave Shuling a look.

The next moment, the two little guys jumped up at the same time with their sticks held high, and slammed them on the heads.

Bang!

Brian and Glebe were hit at the same time, their eyes darkened, and they began to shake.

"What ...... you guys are" Brian didn't react yet, turning his head to look at Mingxuan, who was pale, puzzled.

Bang!

Another stick knocked on the door of the head, and Brian went limp, collapsed on the ground and fainted.

"Run!" Mingxuan screamed, and the two villains hurriedly turned around, jumped into the helicopter, and stomped on it with their lives.

Not to mention, the strength of the two of them is really not small, the rotor immediately rotated at high speed, and the helicopter slowly rose into the air, flying towards the vast sea of ice, and from time to time there was only a small black dot left.

Brian groaned #, woke up slowly, shook his head and got up dazedly, and his thoughts gradually became clearer. When he realized what was happening, he immediately went crazy, ran to the sea, jumped to his feet and roared: "Come back to me!" What the hell are you two little devils doing?! ”

On the helicopter, Shu Ling muttered dissatisfiedly: "He said we are little devils." ”

"Isn't it?" Mingxuan said lightly, the two villains glanced at each other, and laughed out loud.

At this moment, a large number of birds suddenly appeared in the north, and the two sisters hurriedly retracted their eyes and looked ahead, only to see a large cloud of white clouds tumbling violently, and then the clouds parted, and a huge castle flew out of the clouds. This side is 500 meters long, shaped like an inverted pyramid, and the whole body exudes a soaring dead air, and all seabirds that can't escape are smoked by the dead air, and immediately turn into dry corpses and fall.

Shuling was dumbfounded, Mingxuan pushed her hard, and screamed loudly: "Don't be stunned, you're about to bump into it!" ”

The two sisters hurriedly stepped on the pedals desperately, broke the handle to one side, and the helicopter whizzed and drew a large arc, and brushed next to the castle. When you pass by by by mistake, you can feel the shock, it is really like Mount Tai pressing the top! Countless pairs of red eyes lit up on the castle wall, and a heart-rending scream shook people's hearts!

Ahem, ahem!

The two sisters were choked by the thick death breath and coughed, and looked back at the castle flying south, and their hearts palpitated, what the hell is this?

No matter what it was, it was definitely not a good thing, they were frightened, and they didn't dare to keep up to see the excitement, so they hurriedly continued to fly north.

On the seashore of Stratholme, Brian cursed and scolded, falling into a state of stupor, "This is ......"

Glebe, who had been lying on the ground and not moving, suddenly jumped up, held his head and ran, it turned out that it was pretended......

How could Brian care about this at this time? As soon as Glebe let go, he threw off his two short legs and hurriedly followed, and together they rushed towards the southern wolf.

Behind them, the castle "buzzed" against the shoreline, and the sea below the castle suddenly boiled, and countless undead zombies poured out of the bottom of the sea, crawling on all fours, densely packed like a tide crashing on the shore, and the continuous roar was deafening.

These are the troops of the Scourge!

Brian was stunned by the sound and yelled at Glebe, "What are we going to do?!" ”

Glebe was even more panicked than he was, screaming and crying.

These things are crawling fast, and the number of them is even more innumerable, overwhelming, and it is a matter of time before they are caught up. Not to mention, being bitten to death by them will also turn into an undead ghoul like them, which is absolutely unacceptable!

The tide of ghouls behind him was getting closer and closer, Brian could already smell the pungent blood, despair pressed against him like a boulder, and as he ran, he gritted his teeth and pulled a Mithril dagger from his arms.

At this point, Brian would rather kill himself than become a natural disaster that destroys human nature.

Just as Brian was about to plunge the tip of his dagger at his heart, suddenly, a majestic trumpet sound came from the south, accompanied by the rumbling of the earth!

Looking up, I saw a series of silver-armored cavalry appearing on the horizon, all dressed in white light. When a red flag was waved in the wind, the standard-bearer was blowing with a silver horn, the sound shook the sky, and the whole cavalry was murderous, facing the army of ghouls! (To be continued.) )
