Chapter 16: The Dragon's Soul
"Katrana?" Luo Lin's eyes stared at the goblin in front of him, and the coldness in his eyes was even more terrifying than when the orcs raided them just now. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The goblins bowed their heads silently, feeling that this force might not be their helper. Perhaps, they are in an even more dangerous predicament.
"The orcs who raided you only captured Katrana? So how did you come out alive? Crassus's red eyes cast a shimmer of magic, and the runes of spells that emerged from their sockets pierced the eyes of the old goblin like sharp knives. Slowly, the old goblin raised his forehead, and he looked at the mage in red spell robes with fear at first, but then quieted down.
The surrounding goblins didn't know what was going on, and they curled up and hid behind them in a dilapidated carriage scorched by flames.
The art of snooping straight to the heart, whatever happened in the old goblin's mind can be seen in the bottom of his heart. After a brief period of time, Crassus withdrew the sparkle of the spell that had floated in front of the old goblin's eyes.
The old goblin got rid of Crassus's divine thoughts, he looked at the mage in front of him blankly, and said tremblingly, "Archmages, I know that you are the army of the Alliance. Therefore, I sincerely beseech you to save this beautiful noble lady. If something really happens to her, the commercial trade of our entire Treasure Bay will be completely cut off from Stormwind. And we, too, will be guillotined by the Prince. ”
"He's right, Rollin." Crassus frowned, he believed the old goblin's words.
It is impossible to deceive the magician with the spirit snooping spell. Rollin's stern eyes slowed slightly, and he walked to the side of the carriage, placing his left hand on the wheel.
With a slight swipe, Rollin's eyes narrowed into a slit, and his deep voice sounded in his throat: "Where did these dragons leave?" ”
The old goblin shook his head, twisting his diminutive body, his green, wrinkled hands pointing in the direction of the canyon.
"The dragon flew to the east, yes, to the east. As we fled, I saw them fly into the canyon. The old goblin remembered the attack that had taken place not long ago, and he looked at Rollin in horror.
Luo Ning, who was standing on the side, also heard the words of the old goblin, he took out the scroll of the map from the package, pulled it with both hands, and opened the map.
Thorbain pointed in the direction of the old goblin, and he said, "Grimbaatar, the lair of the Dragonthroat Clan. ”
"Go and wait on the other side of the Sadover Bridge, and we'll try to rescue that Stormwind nobleman. However, you do your best to protect yourselves, we don't have extra soldiers to protect you. ”
"Thank you, Archmage, we'll be waiting on the other side of the bridge." The old goblin's sad face softened a little, and he felt that there was finally hope now.
With the chirping of Scarly's mighty griffon, Thorbain's army slowly walked into the canyon.
This canyon is very deep, and it is necessary to bypass this place to reach the headquarters of the Dragonmaw Clan, the former fortress of the Hammer Dwarves, Grimbaatar.
On the high mountains on both sides of the canyon, vegetation is sparse. It stands to reason that in this rainy and mild place, there should not have been such a desolate mountain range.
In the empty and spacious canyon, there is no sound of any animals. The birds, beasts and insects seem to be hiding today, and there is a dead silence here.
Feeling a vague sense of unease, the two archmages and even the soldiers all asked about a hint of danger
However, the danger did not come, and the soldiers crossed the canyon. It was safe to cross the canyon.
By evening, the troops were stationed at the bottom of the high mountain.
Although behind the current line of sight, Luo Lin could not see where the Dragonthroat Clan was stationed. But within the scope of Rollin's divine sense, he felt that there were quite a few creatures, entrenched behind several peaks. Moreover, among these creatures are giant dragons.
In the middle of the night, Crassus stood with Rollin on a low hill, with the soldiers' tents behind them. On the first night, the Grand Magus acts as a night watchman to give the soldiers a good night's sleep.
"There's no way the orcs didn't know we're here." Crassus said, looking out at the towering mountains in the distance.
Rollin agreed with Crassus's words, and he nodded: "The words of those goblins today made me think deeply. Why did these orcs go to catch Katrana? There must be something strange in this. ”
"I'm skeptical, too, but in the consciousness of a goblin, I saw the scene of Katrana being captured. The nobleman was horrified, she didn't look like she had been premeditated. Eyes don't deceive. What's more, I can see more than humans. Crassus was convinced of his point of view.
The sound of steady breathing ran under the tip of Rollin's nose. The more he thought about it, the more confused he became, and even the more he subconsciously put Katrana on the side of the orcs.
"I'm not sure, but I know at least that the orcs didn't have any reason to take Catlana. ”
"No, you have to think about it simply, maybe the orcs don't know that Katrana is a nobleman, maybe even if they do, they probably have a crush on this nobleman's identity. After all, the orcs snatching the goblin's supplies is the primary problem. In Grimbato, the orcs here prefer goods on the trade routes. Crassus explained to Rollin.
Such an explanation is so common sense, Rollin frowned slightly. After thinking for a moment, he leaned on his back against the boulder behind him: "I got the original question back, what you just asked was also what I was worried about." The orcs have been hiding in this mountain range, and I can't guess what the orcs are trying to do. ”
Smiling lightly, Crassus said, "Perhaps without Nesario's help, these orcs are afraid of our power. At the end of the Second World War, the orcs here have been hiding here. They did not dare to make any moves to attract the alliance. ”
"Attack tomorrow morning, I guess, you won't want to wait too long." Rollin's eyes were full of meaning, and he glanced at Crassus.
With a long sigh, Crassus clenched his fists and said, "Give me that chieftain, and I will know his life with my own hands!" ”
"Of course, it's your right."
The short night passed quickly, and in the early morning, the thick fog became the best barrier for the soldiers.
After a full night's rest, the paladins and warriors marched at a happier pace, and after three hours, the soldiers were in front of the ancient city.
A city hidden in the midst of towering mountains. Now, the soldier was standing in front of this towering gate.
There were no orcs or dragons, perhaps sensing the threat from these forces, and had taken refuge in the city in the mountains.
It would be unwise to rush into this high mountain. Even if Kudran, a former Brutehammer dwarf, stood here, it wasn't safe.
"I don't know that this city founded by our ancestors, the current Eagle Vulture Mountain, has completely erased the memory of this period of history." Kudran said as he stroked the boulder walls of the city, shaking his head.
Tolbain had always been aggressive, and by the time he stepped on the stone slabs of the city in the mountains, he had made it Stormgard's domain.
"These remnants of the orcs can't resist our attack, Archmage, I don't think we have to wait." Tol Bain said confidently.
The faces of the ten magicians who came from Dalaran were not very optimistic. They are not like soldiers, they always maintain a cautious attitude towards such a strange place. No one knows what's lurking in there, or what's going to happen in the next second.
"Attack, no matter what happens. We're here to rid the orcs and free the red dragons. Rollin ordered.
The corners of Tolbane's mouth went up, and he drew his sword and walked in front. There is only one passage through the gates of the city in this mountain range.
The warriors and paladins walked through the towering passages, and soon they saw the end.
Like the Dwarven Ironforge, another city, it is also a circular inner city.
However, unlike the scene outside the city of Grimbaatar, the roar of the dragon and the angry voice of the orc soldiers resounded in the eardrums of the Alliance soldiers after the soldiers entered the city completely.
The soldiers who came with Rollin were all soldiers who had been in battle for a long time and had made great achievements in the Second Orc War. These harsh-sounding lives did not change their serious expressions in any way.
Under Thorbain's leadership, the paladin's team crossed sides with the warriors. Then the warriors lifted their shields, which they dispersed over the rim passages of the ring.
The structure inside the city is so spacious that orc dragon knights can fly over the city.
Nearly fifty dragons flew over from the north together, and with the advantage of high altitude, the red dragon's flame breath was instantly engulfed, and the soldiers scattered on the edge of the passage.
However, the magicians of Dalaran would not let that happen, and when they came, they had done their homework on the dragons here. Frost-based spells are effective against the Red Guardian Dragon's flame spitting. Now it seems that the effect is outstanding on the ground on these melted ice slags.
The ranged group cast spells protected the soldiers, and of course, in order to escape the harassment of these dragon knights, the paladins and warriors rushed to the other side of the passage.
The dragon's pursuit is not so efficient. The powerful spells of Lorraine and Crassus effectively restricted their movement. The orcs who wielded the dragon sensed the pressure on the two magisters, and they calmly withdrew and flew into the interior of the city. One is still in the middle of a circular barrier.
"It seems that purging the orcs here is not as troublesome as we thought." Crassus said.
Releasing his divine thoughts, Luo Lin slowly opened his eyes and said, "A strong breath of life appeared in the east, at the end of all passages. ”
"I see, I'll leave the attack in this area to me. You and your soldiers purge the orcs here. Ronin and I handle my tasks. Crassus's eyes burned with anger.
Waving his hand, Rollin said, "Let's go and let Ronin stay and help Thorbaine." It's much safer to deal with these orcs than it is to deal with the Dragon's Soul. ”
That's right, too. Crassus smiled and said, "Thank you, Rollin. When this is over, I will thank you with the Queen. ”
With the aid of Mage Dalaran, Torbain and Kudran swept the city of orc soldiers. An orc clan that has suffered a lot of vitality can't put enough pressure on Torbane at all. This battle was much easier than it was in Draenor.
"You've always taken the dragon's soul? Magicians, this is not the place you should be. "The orc standing on a towering stone pillar, dressed in an ancient attire, held his staff and looked down at the Magus below.
At the side of the old shaman, there was also a black dragon, a huge black dragon.
"Necrus, don't talk nonsense with them. We're going to get our hands dirty. "The black dragon made a female voice, she was a female dragon.
It's hard to imagine how a shaman and a black dragon can compete with Crassus and Rollin.
In terms of hard power, the black dragon and the orc shaman are no match for the Magister at all. Still, Rollin remained vigilant. Because he felt that it was impossible for the villain to shout in front of him without intelligence.
Crassus didn't want to talk nonsense, he twisted his fingers and whispered a spell. As the arcane matrix in his palm switched energy into a spell blast, an arcane light rushed in front of the shaman.
The power of the spell is not bad, but the orc shaman, who will not blow the dust, dissolves the mage of Crassus.
A delicate disc made of metal dissolves the magic power of Crassus.
"Little Red Dragon, your dragon power. Useless in front of the dragon's soul. However, I will tell you in advance that before you came, I stunned your queen with this artifact. In order to hold an artifact against you, your queen has been tortured by ordinary dragons that are unbearable. "Necrus has been dealing with dragons for several years, and he knows exactly how dragons react to their powers.
"You're going to hell soon, orc!" A roar. Crassus did not have the slightest ability to hide himself. His body rose and burned in the red flames, and after a violent scorching, the dragon Kraostraz appeared beside Rollin.
The black dragon sneered, "Dragon? I know you, you are the Queen's consort. However, alas, you may also be controlled here today, and you do not have any power to save your master, your lover. ”
"Do it, I'll take the dragon's soul." Rollin's left hand appeared as the Elunis Scepter rose, the corners of his mouth raised, and the arcane energy quickly condensed. (To be continued.) )
