Chapter Twenty-Five: The Eve of the Storm
【Broadcast】Pay attention to "Reading at the starting point", get the first-hand news of 515 red envelopes, and students who have not grabbed red envelopes after the Chinese New Year can show their skills this time.
The city defense cannon of Ratchet City was launched.
Each of these cannons powered by compressed arcane energy is no less powerful than a third-order arcane mage, with 8 salvos firing at an astonishing power.
Fortunately, attacking both of them at the same time, the power was greatly dispersed, and Wentini turned around and drew a circle with her staff, and as soon as she wrenched from the spiral lightning, the four arcane rays that attacked her were annihilated.
Looking at Cheng Xiaotian again, seeing that he couldn't dodge, he pinched the magic trick with a finger, and the golden crow and the Xuanniao that stopped on his shoulders flapped their wings and collided. In mid-air, the two birds spun rapidly together, forming a red and white spiral in the blink of an eye, trapping the arcane rays that shot in.
With a "bang", the spiral exploded, the arcane light became thinner several times, Cheng Xiaotian's right hand flipped over, and the Falling Star Sword pulled a sword flower, splitting the white light that came from it. Then he folded and flew towards the sea, where the pestle was not a target.
As soon as he landed on the surface of the sea, there was a noisy vibration under his feet, Cheng Xiaotian looked down, and saw that countless dolphins were densely packed under the sea surface and swam towards the dock in groups, and there was a water spirit lying on the back of each dolphin.
In the sky, Wentini was completely rampant, and she couldn't imagine that these goblins would dare to do it.
"Attack! Kill all who dare to resist! Rumbling thunder and roaring echoed through the heavens, and Wentini gave the order for a general attack.
As soon as she gave the order, a drainage wall suddenly rose on the side of the pier trestle, and countless dolphins jumped out of the water, and the water spirits lying on the back of the dolphins flew down in rows, pouring into the lanes of Ratchet City.
In an instant, the ratchet city boiled a pot, and the cries, screams, and shouts of killing rang out, and the residents of the city ran out of the city in terror with their children and daughters in thin tows.
At the city gate, Gazruvi looked at the incoming tide of refugees, his face was gloomy and terrifying, and the refugees were shocked. He was no longer able to organize effective resistance. However, even if he could gather men, it would be useless, the enemy was ten times stronger than the local city defenses, and any act of fighting was tantamount to death.
"Let's go to Orgrimmar." With a wave of his hand, Ghazruwe flipped into a steam tricycle. "Tututu" sailed to the north, and dozens of his guards hurriedly mounted their mounts to follow.
"Get out of here or you'll be killed!" In the city, the water elves shouted loudly and drove away the inhabitants from alley to alley. Regardless of race. They did not move fast, but those who delayed and refused to leave were caught and killed mercilessly, and everywhere they passed, corpses were scattered in the streets.
Such a brutal act, Cheng Xiaotian frowned when he saw it, but he couldn't, this is war, there is no warmth to talk about.
"What? Dismissive? Cold words came from the side, and Wendini slowly landed on the surface.
Cheng Xiaotian glanced at her gloomily. Without saying a word, he flew into the sky, this is someone else's war, and he is powerless to care.
"Wait!" Wentini snapped and chased after him, "You can't leave yet, someone wants to see you." ”
"I'm leaving, you can't stop me." Cheng Xiaotian didn't look back at all, his figure flashed in the air three times in a row, the distance was stretched to a few hundred meters, and he spouted a flying sword and accelerated away.
Single-wheel flight speed. Even if Wentini uses two pairs of wings, he is not as fast as Cheng Xiaotian of Edgeworth.
"Ho! Sure enough, there are some skills. Wentini's words came from behind him, Cheng Xiaotian swept away, and Wentini had stopped chasing. Swooped into Ratchet City.
Sighing secretly, Cheng Xiaotian was indescribably depressed, looked at it in the air, flew towards the northwest, and disappeared in a blink of an eye.
Ratchet City has completely fallen.
Following the capture of Theramore, the Water Elves took Ratchet City. Once again, this shocked Azeroth. Ratchet City has 10,000 residents and a garrison of nearly 1,000 people, and the defense is not strict, but the water elves are attacking strongly, and a weaver is dispatched to lead the army, and the goblins are really powerless to resist.
It is adjacent to the orc empire Durontar to the north, and when the goblins occupy it, they will not only make friends with the orcs, but also pay tribute on time. And the water elves are now the number one enemy of the orcs, so don't think about it, and the fire line between the two sides will be directly connected, and there will be no buffer.
The news spread throughout Azeroth through various channels in just a few days, and various forces expressed concern about it, including Stormwind, accusing the Water Elves of being too aggressive and making enemies everywhere was extremely unwise. Of course, they are happy to fight with the orc empire, but forcibly occupying Ratchet City is equivalent to pushing the powerful goblin clan to the tribal side, which is very bad.
But the water elves did not make any statement about this, and only increased their troops to Ratchet City, and a big battle seemed inevitable, just after the two sides formed an alliance.
Cheng Xiaotian didn't know anything about this information, after he left Ratchet City, he flew northwest for a day, and a big river finally appeared in front of him.
The Barren Land is an unusually large area, not as large as the Arathi Highlands and Basins combined, but unlike the four seasons of the Arathi Land, it is located in the subtropics, with a hot, dry climate, little rain, and barren land. There is only one large river in the vast savannah, the Nushui River, which originates in Eshara in the north.
The river flowed down from the cold temperate zone until it passed west of Ratchet City, and finally entered the sea from Theramore, where it burst into the mud swamp. In addition, this river is also the boundary river of the Orc Empire, and the east of the river to the Endless Sea is the direct territory of the Orcs.
In fact, the entire barren land is under the control of the orcs, but due to the treaty signed with the various forces of Azeroth, even if they have actual control of this land, they cannot openly declare their sovereignty, otherwise, they will inevitably be attacked by the joint forces of the major forces.
The Xifeng Gang that Cheng Xiaotian is looking for is located on the side of the Nushui River, on the side of the barren land, and the specific location is not clear, so he can only look for it along the Nushui River to the north.
And just as Cheng Xiaotian began to look for the small village along the Nushui River, Norbulingka walked the north road and came to the Nushui River almost at the same time, where they would go their separate ways. The two minotaurs will turn southwest to the Minotaur kingdom of Mogore, while the rest of the tribal adventurers will cross the Wrath River to Orgrimmar, the capital of the Orcs.
As the sun sets, the gentle waters of the river are dyed gold, and a sheepskin raft leans against the shore, and the old orc who is ferrying the boat carries the oars and looks at the two humans with a wary expression. He really couldn't understand how the tribe could mix with humans, and seemed to have a lot of respect for these two humans.
"Sir, ma'am, please say hello to the lord on my behalf." The giant magician Russell reluctantly said, and the other five people also expressed the same demand, and the old man rolled his eyes when he saw it, what kind of system is this!
Norbulingka waved his hand and said gently: "We adventurers are all over the world, gathering and scattering are common things, I hope you will take away friendship, there is no need to leave sorrow, he can go to the Arathi Basin at any time when he has time." ”
The adventurers nodded their heads again and again when they heard this, and the orc old man on the side finally couldn't stand it anymore.
"Are you still leaving? I've heard that Kukaron has all been dispatched to patrol the border, and if they find out, none of us will want to live, and our families will be affected. The old man yelled as he knocked on the boat, and shook the oars in spite of that.
Hearing this, everyone was shocked and didn't dare to linger anymore.
Kukaron, the most elite unit of the Orc Empire, is composed of high-ranking warriors, and their combat effectiveness is not below the Falling Star Knights, especially their several leaders, which are far superior to the Falling Star Knights.
"It seems that a full-scale war between orcs and water elves will break out soon, and we must quickly inform the adults to leave." Seeing the adventurers go away, Norbulingka said worriedly.
