Chapter 357: The Heart of Glory
In the next few free days, Kael'thas wasted no time and began to investigate the undead and cults.
There is no indication of their existence.
The results of the undead investigation are credible, and it is difficult for such monsters to remain hidden once they appear. But the results of the cult's investigation cannot be fully believed - no dark sect can easily be perceived by anyone.
In order to get a better grasp of the real situation, Kael'thas began to run around Stratholme with Gianna and Sylvanas.
He asked Gianna to help him in the name of "investigating the anomalous sect", and the mage girl accepted with bright eyes, and ran to the crowd market all day to explore the east and west.
Naturally, the result was nothing.
The Cult of the Damned God really didn't seem to have been born, a result that surprised and worried Kael'thas at the same time.
Needless to say, the reason for the surprise is because of the inevitable surname of the undead invasion
Without the Cult of the Damned, how would the trajectory of Medivan's mouth appear? How can the undead invade Quel'Thalas?
Kael'thas felt that Quel'Thalas's defense was already very high now, and without Lordaeron's countless human base that had become undead, he didn't believe that the undead could break Quel'Thalas.
Could it be that the undead invasion that Medivin said was just soy sauce? Actually, there isn't much of a threat?
Or is something fermenting where he can't see it?
Undead
Aside from Lordaeron, where is there so much life that can make the undead scourge invincible?
Kael'thas couldn't think of an answer.
But he felt there was still time to prepare.
In the original history, the orc war transitioned to the invasion of the undead, and it took more than ten or twenty years, and the cursed sect alone developed for more than ten years, and if you look at it by this standard, he still has time to prepare.
[At least the past three years should be fine.] 】
At this time, Kael'thas thought.
He thought he could still study for a while as instructed by Medivan, and spend two years reaching the Holy Level before thinking of more countermeasures.
After all, less than 4 years have passed since the Orc War, and the Cursed Sect has not yet been born and there is no news of the undead, so it is impossible for the course of history to be so fast.
The calm world has reduced his tension a lot, substituting the span of the original history, and this idea is destined for him to pay a price.
On the fifth day, the time for the orc Itrieg to be executed arrived.
At noon, Kael'thas and the two women stood below, watching the orcs being escorted up step by step.
The old orc, whose skin was whiter than the rest of his companions, was covered in bloody scars, and his eyes were dull and weak, and it was evident that he had been greatly humiliated and tortured before.
"How could they do that!"
Gianna said angrily, but didn't dare to raise her voice too loudly.
“”
Kael'thas was also a little unbearable.
He had known that Itreg would be subjected to near-fatal abuse, but he had never thought to save him.
However, just as the orcs were pressed to the ground for execution, a roar rang out from the crowd.
"You can't do that!"
- It's Tirio.
He took his sword by surprise, instantly broke through the defenses of the outer soldiers, and then rushed straight towards the orcs.
But the rest of the soldiers, who reacted quickly, quickly stopped the former paladin.
"It's Tirio Ferdin!"
"He's out of the Light, stop him!"
Tyrio, who no longer had the power of the Light, was clearly no match for these outnumbered soldiers, and after a chaotic battle, they subdued Tirio.
But after subduing, the soldiers did not know what to do.
There were no big names to watch the orcs this time, so they didn't know what to do with Tirio's problem.
"Go and help"
Kael'thas winked at Gianna.
"Hey, give him to me."
Gianna's eyes lit up, and she understood what he meant, and immediately opened her mouth to attract the attention of the soldiers.
The soldiers spotted her, and some clever people reminded their companions of her identity, and soon Tirio was pulled to the three of Kael'thas.
"See you again."
Kael'thas greeted with a smile.
"His Highness Kael'thas "
Tirio looked at him, his somewhat lost eyes slowly lit up.
"Please"
The former paladin was about to open his mouth to plead, when Kael'thas made a booing gesture.
"Don't worry, there's going to be a chance soon."
He said that, then quietly pointed behind him.
Tirio looked over for some reason.
Suddenly, there was a "boom", and an explosion sounded not far behind several people, and then some panicked shouts were heard.
"Ahhh
"The orcs are coming to attack the city!"
Those panicked fluctuations immediately spread here, and the humans around several people immediately began to disperse in a panic.
Kael'thas heard a familiar wolf howl.
【Sal】
He made sure of his identity, and then stared at the soldiers who began to agitate.
"Tirio."
Kael'thas lowered his voice and said to Tirio:
"The orcs are coming over in a minute, and you're going to have to get that friend out of the chaos."
Tirio nodded immediately.
And as Kael'thas said, the orcs were clearly here for Itreig, and went straight to the execution ground.
Many of the soldiers found out about it.
They began to panic.
"Kill this orc first."
One of them proposed, and immediately saw a soldier with a sword slashing at Itreig.
"Don't!!"
Tirio yelled and ran forward.
But his speed is obviously not comparable to other people's swords
"Sylvanas."
Kael'thas saw that something was wrong with the situation, and immediately called out to his companions.
Sylvanas instantly drew his bow and aimed at the soldier.
But before her sword could be fired, the ground trembled with a bang, and the soldier slashed in a hurry.
"It's orc magic!"
The trembling of the earth was not over, and the houses around were shaking.
Everyone was terrified, except for Tirio who ran straight to Itrigue's side, picked him up and ran away.
His movements were swift and agile, and he did not seem to be affected by the earthquake, and the other soldiers could not catch up at all.
[Wrong]
Kael'thas soon noticed that something was wrong, and that Tirio didn't 'see' be unaffected by the earthquake, but that it really wasn't.
While the whole execution ground was shaking, the place where Tirio walked was eerily calm.
It's like the whole earth is helping him
"Saar"
Shocked by this power, Kael'thas looked around and finally spotted the young leader of the orcs.
He was dressed in armor, armed with a pitch-black axe, and his eyes were fixed on Tirio.
The earthquake was caused by Thrall, and Thrall's steady feet were also helping him.
Kael'thas breathed a sigh of relief.
[At least Sal was still there watching the spell cast.] 】
He thought that if Sal could have taken complete control of the scene from a distance.
Well, it can only be said that the elementals have too much preference for Sal
Kael'thas vaguely remembers that elementals are not slaves to shamans, so they won't help shamans to the point of being so perverted. Although the Elementals are helping Thrall, the route under Tirio's feet is determined by Thrall himself.
Tirio escaped.
The earthquake stopped, and Thrall's eyes swept over, and then he met Kael'thas in the eye.
"Go follow them, I'm going to talk to you"
The orc leader had a look of surprise in his eyes, and the wind elemental brought his words to Kael'thas ears.
[Damn]
【True Perverted Abilities】
Kael'thas scolded secretly, worthy of being 'World Sa', which made him feel envious, jealous and hateful for the first time
He understood what Sal meant, and quietly left with Gianna and Sylvanas.
"Why did you ask me to give the order just now?"
On the way, Gianna asked Kael'thas.
She was referring to the reason Kael'thas had asked her to help free Tirio on the execution ground.
"Of course, because you're better suited to let Tirio go than I am"
Kael'thas explains:
"I'm a legendary mage, wouldn't it be too suspicious to let him go like this?"
"And you're so young and weak that you accidentally let Tirio go for a while, those people won't be very suspicious"
This is a blatant nonsense.
Kael'thas was standing beside Gianna, and no matter what he said, it wasn't really reasonable.
But fortunately, Sal's actions gave them plenty of reasons.
Gianna was tempted to refute Kael'thas, but she was drawn to the scene ahead.
"Holy Light?"
A white light rose from the forest in the distance, bright enough to be seen from outside.
Kael'thas immediately walked in with the two of them.
What caught the trio's eyes was, of course, the scene of Tirio using the Holy Light to save Itreguer.
"Isn't he deprived of the light?"
Gianna's eyes widened, and she looked at Tirio and the rapidly recovering Itreig without blinking:
"What's going on?"
Kael'thas chuckled softly: the story is exactly the same, Tirio reawakens the Light in order to heal the orcs.
"This is the true Light."
He always thought so.
"Yes, that's the real Light."
Another voice picked up Kael'thas's words.
The young orc leader stepped out from behind him, walking past Kael'thas with a steady stride before stopping beside Tirio and Itreig.
"Who are you?"
Itrieg's eyes regained their sparkle, and he looked at Sal and asked:
"What did you just cast? Are you a shaman? ”
This old orc left the tribe a long time ago, so he doesn't know what is happening in this world right now.
"Well, I'm a shaman."
Thrall crouched down and shook Itrieg's hand:
"But I'm also the new chief of the tribe, and I'm here to greet the people of glory."
The trees rustled, and then hundreds of strong orcs stepped out, standing side by side behind Thrall, looking at everyone else with wary eyes.
"New Chieftain"
Itreg froze, he looked at Thrall, then looked around at the orcs around him.
The smell of blood and the horror of walking out of the Dark Gate are no longer on these orcs
He had been living in seclusion from the orcs for more than ten years, but now that sick race had woken up?
Itreg began to cry: he, at last, can go back to his compatriots
