In fact, before coming to meet Sal, Kael'thas had planned to deal with Kel'thugad's affairs first.

However, Medivan warned him not to act rashly.

"If you don't want to get into a fight with Dalaran, it's best not to do it lightly."

Medivan said:

"Don't underestimate Dalaran's mage."

He made the fatal mistake of Kael'thas by underestimating Dalaran.

After arriving in Dalaran, Kael'thas was a little disappointed in the magical kingdom, as it was far from being as powerful as he had expected.

The orc's attack brought this thought to a climax, not wrong but also incorrect, and Dalaran had a lot to hide.

Of course, there was another reason why Kael'thas chose to give up: Medivin promised that he would find a way to deal with Kel'thugad while he accompanied Thrall.

So after taking Sal out on a trip, Kael'thas also secretly paid attention to this aspect of the matter.

On their way back this time, Kael'thas left the group as they passed the largest farm in the Hillsbrad Hills, known as the 'Hillsbrad Farm'.

The reason for his departure was simple, just a whim to see the farm.

Of course, it's not because of the view of the farm, but because of its history -- the history of the future.

Hillsbrad Farm used to have a group of people who loved the land very much, these people were familiar to many veteran players who fought in this area, but they were transformed into monsters by the Forsaken later in history.

After the Lich King was eliminated, the Undead Queen launched a downward war from Lordaeron, and the Hills of Brad fell to the Forsaken (Undead).

One of them carried the Queen of the Dead to conduct a plague experiment, and the humans of Hillsbride Farm were treated horribly.

"Hello, Master Mage, do you need any help?"

When Kael'thas entered the farm, he was greeted by a blacksmith.

A young blacksmith, but he still recognizes his identity from his face.

Verintan, a poor blacksmith who, after the destruction of Lordaeron, still believes that the weapons he has built will help reclaim his homeland.

"I'm looking for a weapon."

Kael'thas greeted the blacksmith with a smile before being welcomed into his blacksmith shop to look for him.

There is no doubt that nothing has been gained.

"I can ask the mayor for you."

The arrival of a noble mage on this farm was a big deal, and Vilintan offered to show his favor when he saw that Kael'thas had no harvest.

He took Kael'thas to find Mayor Bonneside, a guy who would be transformed into a lich.

The mayor of the town was obviously more discerning than Verintan, and he quickly guessed from his dress and posture that Kael'thas was not simple.

In fact, they just happened to have a matter that they wanted to ask the professional to investigate, and they were both very enthusiastic to help Kael'thas for this reason.

Their help failed to find the weapon Kael'thas he wanted.

But perhaps the bigger reason he came here was to warn these people about their possible tragic fate.

Before Kael'thas could speak, Bonnside and Velintan made a surprise request.

"Master Mage, can you help us with one thing?"

Their expressions were a little nervous, which aroused Kael'thas's interest:

"What's the matter?"

Bonnesside then told him what had happened:

"Something is wrong with the restless yelling and throbbing of the animals on our farm lately for a long time."

"Of course, we're not bothering you for the sake of these animals."

In order not to annoy Kael'thas with it, the two of them quickly revealed the real reason:

"Actually, it was the same a few years ago, when there were dead orc monsters roaming the forest."

Later in the Orc Wars, there was a group of Death Knights roaming the Hillsbrad Hills, but they were all dealt with after that.

"It's been a long time since we've had this happen, so"

"Now that we're in this situation, we're a little worried about the monsters around again."

For humans, the air-conditioned Death Knight can indeed be considered a monster.

This caused Kael'thas to be on high alert, the Death Knights are very powerful creatures, and because they are not afraid of pain and death, these knights are more powerful than other professions of their rank.

None of the Death Knights in the Orc War are particularly strong, but except for those who returned to Draenor, all the Death Knights in this world should be eliminated.

[Is there still a residue?] 】

If so, Kael'thas couldn't let this monster go.

But in the ensuing Q&A, Bonnside said that no one had ever seen a Death Knight or heard of a casualty report in the past few years, which made Kael'thas a little puzzled.

"Do you have any clue?"

Kael'thas felt that he should put together the information first.

Since Bonnesside says it has been going on for a long time, they shouldn't have done nothing.

Just as Kael'thas had guessed, Bonnesside called an insider.

"My name is Calaba, Master Mage."

The person who came was a handsome peasant woman with a hoe.

Calabar Kael'thas also remembers the name.

Her fate was even more tragic than that of the first two, and the Forsaken completely shredded her and the other two farmers alive, stitching the bodies of the three people together and turning them into a disgusting stitch monster with several faces.

The strange look of the stitching makes people sick to their stomachs just thinking about it.

[Damn]

Kael'thas drove the image away from his mind, then asked Kabbalah:

"What do you know?"

Kabbalah began to slowly talk about the general situation.

In her description, the changes in the farm's livestock are linked to some mysterious mages.

In the forest not far from the farm, some mages quietly built houses and didn't know what they were studying, but the changes in livestock appeared under the command of these mages.

"You haven't been looking into that place?"

Kael'thas asked.

He regretted it: it was obvious that this group of ordinary humans could not do the investigation.

"We've investigated, but we can't get in."

Bonnside replied, looking a little nervous, as if he had something to hide.

"What's wrong?"

Kael'thas sensed that something was wrong with him.

"Master Mage"

Bonnesside once again looked at Kael'thas seriously, and then said:

"Actually, we've asked some warriors or thieves to investigate before, but"

"None of them came back."

Kael'thas knew what the mayor was worried about.

"I'm strong, you don't have to worry."

He comforted Bonnesside.

Although the strength of the legend cannot do many things at the top of the race, it is still very strong in the whole world.

"It's not just that"

Although Bonnesside wanted Kael'thas to solve the problem, he also didn't want to waste his life, and he himself felt a little conflicted.

"The status of those mages seems to be very noble."

Bonnside decided to tell the truth:

"After we had people investigate, a mage came to warn us within a few days"

"They seem to be Dalaran's big men."

In an instant, Kael'thas's eyes widened.

"The Big Man of Dalaran"

A wave of joy welled up from the bottom of his heart, and he seemed to have found some key point.

To prove his point, it looks like he's going to have to go over and look into it anyway.

"I'll try to help you with that."

Kael'thas replied to Bonnside.

This answer was a satisfactory answer for both of them, and Bonnesside was naturally grateful.

Before leaving, Kael'thas still couldn't find any suitable words to change the fate of these people.

"If the undead hit here one day, you might as well run!"

In the end, he could only leave with such words.

How things will develop after that, he will not bother to care.

Kael'thas returned to the squad, and they continued eastward.

"I think I'm going to leave first."

Upon reaching the Kabbalah directions not far away, Kael'thas made a difference.

"Why?"

"What are you going to do?"

The faces of the remaining three changed slightly, trying to stop him.

"I have something I want to investigate, and you guys have helped."

Kael'thas replied while reassuring them for a year:

"And it won't be long before I leave."

Whatever the outcome, Kael'thas will do his best to get it back.

"How long?"

Sal frowned and said:

"Why don't we wait for you to do it together?"

He still wasn't very confident about Karina's safety.

"No, don't waste your time."

Kael'thas outright rejected Kael'thas offer:

"You go straight east, and I'll follow."

"If it's fast, you can keep up in a day, and if it's slow, it won't take two weeks."

Kael'thas took out a magic scroll from his body and handed it to Thrall, and said to him:

"Don't drop this with you, and I'll know where you are."

The scroll had Kael'thas's magical markings on it, allowing him to feel the exact direction at all times, something he had just learned in Dalaran recently.

Sal took it carefully.

"I can go with you."

But Karina spoke up suddenly, and her words made Teresa look relieved.

[Karina really did it to him]

"You can't go."

However, Kael'thas disagreed with Karina's actions:

"I'm not around, and if you're in danger, both Thrall and Teresa need your protection."

Thrall is still weak, and Kael'thas doesn't have the confidence for him to take care of Teresa.

He tried to dissuade Karina, and eventually obtained her consent.

"Be careful all the way."

At the trio's instruction, Kael'thas walked towards the dark forest.
