In the North Valley, the broken corpses of the undead of the natural disaster are scattered everywhere, and the bright red blood and broken arrows that many of the undead do not have during this period do not have, telling the tragedy of the battle just now.

Bands of Silver Warriors, escorting a handful of paladins and clerics, hurried across the battlefield, occasionally carrying some of the seriously wounded away or treating them on the spot.

On a hill about a kilometer away from the main battlefield, the generals led by Erigor Silver Dawn silently looked at the two groups of blood elves in the tense confrontation in front of them

"Thrace! Even if Alex is here, he doesn't dare to do this to me~! Eldara shouted with a grim face as she was guarded by a group of blood knights.

"I'm sorry, Ms. Morning Walker~" Thrace's face did not change at all, and he respectfully made a noble salute and replied indifferently: "These soldiers are the ones that the general handed over to me, not you!" The threat of the Scourge is imminent, and I hope you will be able to issue your so-called orders after the battle has passed. Now get out of the way! ”

"Alex is so stubborn! The Trolls of Zuaman threaten the Wraith Lands and the Eternal Song Forest, and we must not be part of the fight in the Plaguelands! Eldara's face darkened, and she looked a little annoyed: "I'll give the order to Hawksbill to withdraw his troops from there and return to Taquelin!" ”

Thrace did not back down, pursed his lips slightly, and said disdainfully: "Do you think the Ranger Lord will listen to your orders?" ”

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and the blood knight behind him, who had just retreated from the battlefield and was full of evil spirits, took three steps forward in unison, staring at Eldara and the others with expressionless faces

Standing next to him, Iceleuston changed color, and without hesitation, he drew his sword and blocked it in front of Eldara, staring at the blood knights who were surrounding him with a cold expression.

Most of these people in front of him are the old-school elites who have followed Xie Feng since the beginning of his army, and they can be said to be the strongest combat fighting existence in the Chenfeng Legion of rookies everywhere! Coupled with the ranger troops around him, no matter how strong these guards brought by Eldara are, they will definitely have no chance of winning! The only way was to think of this, he couldn't help but squint his eyes, looked at Thrace, who was sitting under the fire phoenix handsome, with a grim expression, and tightened the rune sword in his hand.

Sensing the change in his eyes, Erigor frowned slightly, and then quietly moved two steps, slowly approaching Thrace, so that when he moved, he could stop Iselius' strong attack as soon as possible. A commander with a bold personality who wields most of the power of Silver Dawn can't be a political idiot!

Eldara is obviously a conservative in Silvermoon City, and she has no intention of participating in the struggle in the Plaguelands at all, if she is allowed to take advantage of Xie Feng's absence and bring these blood elves back to Taquelin, even if Xie Feng's attitude is tough in the future, it is impossible to get a single soldier from Silvermoon City, which is obviously a big blow to Silver Dawn in an alliance position.

In the face of the current situation, there is no need to think about it at all, only to keep Thrace and hold on until Xie Feng returns to regain power!

Although Eldara is still not well-known, she is also a ninth-order powerhouse after all, how could Erigor's small actions hide from her eyes? Looking at Iserius, who was protecting him in front of him, and Thrace, who was not far away, with a calm face, as if he was really going to fight him to the end, he suddenly felt that his stomach began to cramp.

Aren't these two putting on this appearance just to stall for time? However, she still appreciates Thrace's adaptability. After all, these soldiers in front of him are Xie Feng's cronies, aren't they? If it is so easy to take away the command by yourself, a fool can see that there is a problem in it! But now that he is making such a fuss, Erigor has really become a fool

I tried my best to suppress the urge to laugh, but my face still couldn't stop flushing and distorting slightly. But these were expressions of annoyance and anger in the eyes of others, and she took out a roll of military orders, pointed at those blood knights, and shouted: "All the troops listen to the order! In the name of Marshal of the Morning Striker, I order that we immediately assemble and withdraw from the Plaguelands! ”

After Liadrin, Eldara can be said to be the number two person in the Morning Striker Legion, as she herself said, to some extent, even Xie Feng has to listen to her orders! In her mind, although Thrace relied on Xie Feng's residual power to hold on, after all, the prestige was insufficient, wasn't it? As long as they show their identity in the Morning Striker Legion, these people should take advantage of the situation, right?

But the result is a cold field! Whether it was a general or a soldier, a ranger or a blood horseman, he didn't take Eldara's orders to heart at all, and directly ignored her words.

Looking at the unresponsive soldiers around him, Eldara who was holding the military order was embarrassed for a while, now he didn't need to pretend, and his face was really green

"Remember who you are! You are blood elves, soldiers of the Morning Striker! Not Alex's private soldiers! The marshal shouted angrily.

Thrace was silent, still expressionless, staring at Eldara and the others. But there was a cold sweat behind him, and this time it was a big fuss!

Originally, it was just a play and symbolic resistance to delay time by the way, but I didn't expect these soldiers who didn't know the situation to take it seriously, relying on their own 'support' of Xie Feng's cronies, and completely ignoring Eldara and the so-called Chenfeng military orders. If this is spread out, Xie Feng's reputation of supporting soldiers and self-respect will definitely not be able to run

was trying his best to find a solution to this stalemate, when a blood knight captain next to him suddenly stood up, glanced at himself, walked to the front of the formation and replied coldly: "We are blood knights!" ”

Thrace almost fainted after hearing this.

Saying this is tantamount to tearing up Eldara's face directly. The Blood Knights are all members of the Chenfeng Legion, isn't your answer to make it clear that you only recognize Xie Feng?

Led by Liadline and Eldara, most of the Morning Striker generals have been converted from priests, and even the original thirteen Blood Knights only have strength and status, but no corresponding rights. Only Xie Feng climbed up step by step from the bottom, and with the blood knight recruits of the same background, he worked hard and sat in his current position, so it was naturally easier to get the support of these low-level soldiers, so that now his reputation among the blood knights could even be compared to Liadrin.

Many people already know this problem, and it is not a secret. But if you know it, you know, but if you say it and find it out directly, it will be a big problem

The blood knights are like this, and the rangers from the huts, needless to say, didn't take Eldara seriously from beginning to end, and just hung it there.

As soon as the captain of the Blood Knight spoke, the audience suddenly fell into a dead silence.

The soldiers were not convinced, Eldara was blushing and there was nothing he could do, and Thrace was even more difficult to ride, in this completely dominant situation, he had no choice but to pray in his heart that the general would be able to open the net when he returned, and not tear himself to pieces and feed the ghouls

At this time, Thrace was even a little expecting Iselius to be able to take action to restrain himself. But this messenger of war also had his own confusion and distress. He had been away from the Blood Elves for too long, and when he returned, he was anxious to kiss his old lover Eldara, and the others were not used to his identity as an undead, so he still had little understanding of the situation in Silvermoon City. At this time, it was found that there was a big discrepancy between the situation and the plan, the specific situation was not clear, and Eregor was waiting for him, how could he dare to act rashly?

Several principals have their own helplessness and no way, and the Silver Dawn will not be able to interfere, so they can only stare at the side and do nothing, and the scene is so deadlocked.

After a while, it was unknown that it was the first messengers sent by Hawksbill to show up and bring the news that the Scourge army was about to arrive at the Northland Outstand.

At this time, Thrace couldn't hold back any longer, and directly waved his sword and ordered, letting the blood knights watch Eldara and the others, and the rangers gathered the adventurers to assemble and standby, and returned to help and withdraw the army.

At this moment, the messenger of the Chapel of the Light's Wish also appeared in front of Erigor and handed over a military order.

The silver commander just glanced at it casually, didn't pass it to everyone, waved his hand and burned it directly, and then ordered: "All the troops are assembled, and immediately gallop to the aid of the Northland Guard Tower!" ”

At the same time, in the Northland Guard Tower, Hawksbill and Valen were still standing on the top floor, staring at the shadowy Scourge Legion in the distance and the blood elves who were constantly busy and calling below.

"How many are these?" Valen glanced playfully at the ranger who disappeared at the top of the stairs and said casually.

Hawksbill was similarly amused: "More than a dozen, right?" I don't remember that the little one in Thrace might have counted? ”

After a pause, he frowned and asked, "By the way, how are the soldiers preparing?" Isn't there any news yet from the army in the North Valley? ”

Hearing this, Valen couldn't help but change color slightly, and hesitated: "Could it be the Alliance?"

"No!" Hawksbill said categorically: "Their purpose is for us to fight the Scourge to lose both, not to annihilate the whole army!" If the army of the North Valley does not show up on time, we will never be trapped as long as we are not in the water, but they will try to keep us in touch with Thrace, and will not sit idly by and watch us retreat! ”

"So what do we do now?" Valen shrugged his shoulders a little helplessly: "Not only Thrace, but even Eldara has no news from there, why evacuate?" ”

Hawksbill paused slightly, breathed a sigh of relief, and said with a smile: "Just retreat!" Have we received an order to retreat, or are we up to us? ”

Valen's eyes lit up and he smiled, "Yes, we received orders to retreat from the three paths, and they were all issued by the Silver Moon Council!" ”

Hawksbill raised the Phoenix Sunfury, squinted his eyes, easily shot down the gargoyles hovering overhead, and said, "It's almost time!" Send a message to Thrace and Eldara, let's withdraw" After saying that, he put away his bow and arrows and walked steadily down the watchtower.

Moments later, hundreds of Blood Knights rushed out of the watchtower, defeated the few scourges that roamed around, and then led the large army to the east

―――――― Scarlet Cathedral, the sudden appearance of the soul of old Mograine and the death of Renault shook everyone on the spot.

Tyran, Demytia, White Mayne and the others all looked at Renault in disbelief, who was lying in a pool of blood and gradually losing his breath of life

"Father! Why? How did you become like this" Darien was the first to react, looking at the soul of old Mograini in despair, and muttered in a low voice.

Darian's words finally made old Mograini, who was caught in the desire for revenge, sober up slightly, dodging his sad and confused eyes: "Don't look at me like that, child" After speaking, he turned into a cloud of green smoke and returned to the fallen ash messenger again~"This, how is this possible?? Tyran's face was full of disbelief, and he still hadn't digested the change in front of him.

With his intellect, he could naturally see what was going on, but he didn't want to believe, or rather accept the reality of his friend's betrayal.

Demithia was relatively calm and not so emotional, so he believed a little in the possibility of what Xie Feng said in the Valley of the Hearth, and at this time it was confirmed, but he was the first to accept it, and he glanced at Renault, who was lying in a pool of blood, and walked over to help Darion, who was kneeling on the ground.

"Why is this happening? Renault? Get up" White Mayne suddenly pounced on Renault and whispered, "Get up!" Tell me、That's not true! ”

Darien looked at Renault with the same wistful face, deceiving himself in the hope that he could get a 'no' from Renault's mouth.

"White I have finally waited for this day" Renault held the hand of the Grand Prosecutor and whispered, although his eyes were gradually dissipating, but not the ruthlessness and madness just now, but extremely gentle: "I am finally relieved from the eternal nightmare"

In the moment before death, Renault completely saw everything and closed his eyes peacefully, but also ruthlessly shattered the last bit of hope for Darien and White Mayne

"It's not true, it's an outright lie!" White-Mayne looked at his blood-stained hands, gradually got up, and the look on his face became more and more crazy, and finally picked up the staff, pointed at the crowd and shouted, "It's all you! It's all you goddamn traitors! Scarlet minions, kill them for me! ”

Perhaps because the Ash Messenger in Darien's hands had been released, or perhaps because of the usual power of Renault and Whitemayne, the Scarlet Crusaders and Priests in the church all took up their weapons with complicated expressions and walked over tremblingly, surrounding the crowd in the middle, but no one dared to do anything.

And White Mayne, after giving the order, did not pay attention to the crowd, turned his head to look at Renault with a gentle face, and slowly raised his hands

"You said, Renault! You will not abandon me, you said you would join me in witnessing the destruction of the Scourge"

With her whispering, a three-color gemstone necklace on her bare neck emitted a dazzling light, and then turned into a transparent shield, protecting her in the middle, and her hands began to slowly gather a majestic but gentle holy light energy, which was also mixed with a wave of soul fluctuations

This kind of action, this kind of demeanor Xie Feng has seen it more than once, and he knows very well what will happen next, and suddenly reflexively pulled out his weapon to stop it.

But before he could act, Demytia, who was supporting Darian, quietly stretched out the staff in his hand backwards, and pointed at Xie Feng without the slightest deviation. The warning is self-explanatory!

"Damn it, dogs and men" Xie Feng smiled helplessly and slowly put down the giant sword in his hand. In fact, he also knew in his heart that even if he made a move, the invincibility of the ninth-order Demitian, although he relied on the holy talisman on her neck, was not something that everyone present could break, let alone a seventh-order rookie?

He could only complain in his heart with grief and indignation: "White Mayne can even save those who die under the artifact" Thinking about Sir Serriek and Duchess Braux who he met when attacking Naxxramas, Xie Feng wanted to cry without tears: "Sooner or later, I will be killed by you endless dogs and men"

No one paid attention to Xie Feng's curse, and White Mayne finally completed his ritual in the expectant or hesitant gaze of everyone, and shouted the familiar words in a sonorous voice: "Resurrect, my warrior!" ”

As if rehearsed countless times, the fatal scar on Renault's chest slowly disappeared in the heavenly light, and the powerful power of Yi Kidney returned, and he once again held the power of his beloved war hammer Mograine, and replied in a firm voice: "Fight for you, my lady!" ”

Everyone looked dumbfounded, except for Xie Feng's bitter gourd face

"This must be a tragedy, I didn't expect that Whitemayne would be missed by thousands of calculations"

"Renault, you" Darien exclaimed happily, but he suddenly stopped, and looked at the majestic Renault with a complicated face, standing there at a loss.

Renault was stunned for a moment, looked at the situation in the field, and then glanced at the confused Darien and the tired White Mayne, and finally figured out the situation in the field.

Just when Xie Feng thought that he was going to give the order to attack everyone, he took two steps back with a dead face, threw down the war hammer and sat down on the chair of the Great Lord and held his head

"Is there a turnaround? Is this Renault repenting for what he did? Seeing him like this, Xie Feng's face changed, and a glimmer of hope began to rise in his heart to get out of the monastery alive.

The others were pale and didn't know what to say. After all, if Renault died, everyone would still have a little comfort, or a little respect for the dead, but now they have to face that cruel question, did old Mograini kill him?

The Scarlet Crusaders need an answer!

I don't know how long it was, but Renault let out a faint sigh and whispered to White Mayne: "Bring Uncle Fairbanks, he is innocent!" ”
