Chapter 222: To Each His Own Calculation (End)
Chapter 222: Each Has a Calculation (End)
A "wolf bèi escaped".
A "relentless pursuit".
Lao Tang and the "Queen Xià" have already crossed most of the battlefield after a long chase battle. Not far ahead, the cavalry troops from Silvermoon City were already close in front of them, and now they were charging into the sea of the dead under the leadership of the two guards of the old Tang, Black Horn and Cape, and advancing step by step towards the defense line of the Well of the Sun.
Looking back and staring deeply at the "Queen's Majesty", to the others on the battlefield, Old Tang looked like he was provoking the Dark Ranger, trying to lure Sylvanas into the pursuit and into danger. But in fact, Lao Tang had secretly made several cryptic gestures to Her Majesty the Queen, telling her to seize the opportunity to leave......
Old Tang's painstaking queen will naturally not be unaware, but she will naturally have to do a full set of acts, and if she doesn't "work hard" at the end, how can Sylvanas * Windrunner prove to the Lich King who invaded her mind that she has done her best to succeed?
Once again, a few silver arrows were drawn from the quiver, and the right hand of Her Majesty the Queen almost drew an afterimage, and the silver-white sharp arrows with a poignant sonic boom connected in the air, and in the blink of an eye, they burst towards the galloping old Tang and the brute.
In the face of the long-range attack of the "unwilling to fail" dark ranger, Old Tang very simply took out the collection of the elf prince from the magic backpack on his waist, and now it is Old Tang's collectible shield - the phase barrier in his hand. After pouring anger into it, Old Tang directly activated the energy barrier of this magic shield to parry the instantaneous arrows, and once again defused the powerful blow of the "Queen Xià" with no technical content.
Speaking of which, although the pursuit along the way is just a scene, but later the drama of "Queen Xià", which pursues prey, seems to have become more and more handy. It is even said that in the second half of the period, the former Ranger Lord Sylvanas was already in danger of crossing the boundary, and the offensive was not ordinary sharp and difficult.
Fortunately, the "Queen Majesty" can still be divided into the heavy.
Except for archery skills such as continuous arrows and multiple shots, the Dark Ranger's amazing archery skills have not been used much, and none of the various special arrows specially configured for the Ranger Lord in the "Queen Xià" quiver have been released. Otherwise, it is really impossible to say whether Old Tang can hold it in Sylvanas's hands.
Now this chase drama with good "sound, light and shadow", but in essence there is not much success, is finally coming to an end. Old Tang had already rushed into the array of knight troops, and Her Majesty the Queen also "wisely" withdrew, retreating from the reinforcements, drawing an end to her pursuit and interception.
"It's up to you, Good......" Looking at the torrent of steel sweeping in the direction of the Sunwell's defense, Her Majesty thought quietly in her heart, "I hope your efforts will be in time before that butcher's plan succeeds...... Battered and surrounded by the elven prince and a kind of clone, Arthas thrust Frost Sorrow deep into the ground with both hands, and finally threw out his hidden move.
With the cry of the Death Knight, Frost Grief suddenly erupted into a powerful shadow force deep into the ground, and a strange mental fluctuation spread to the entire battlefield almost instantly. The High Elf warriors who stubbornly resisted at the defense line were torn apart by this strange force, while the walking dead of the undead suddenly became extremely excited as if they had eaten the Ten Great Tonic Pills, and the intensity of their attacks suddenly intensified, and the outlaw offensive against the defense line of the Well of the Sun was also forced to a new level.
And what made the elf prince even more jealous, and what he was deeply guarded for was the abnormal violent tremor of the ground under his feet!
Just when the elven prince was alarmed and felt bad, a large number of crypt demons had already broken through the ground. Looking at that stance, it seems that Arthas has put all the big spiders lurking underground at the beginning of the battle, waiting to launch a surprise attack like this that can turn the tide of the battle like this now!
Dozens of ...... Hundreds... Thousands of ......
These hideous, ugly-looking spiders erupt like an endless tidal wave. The defense line that the High Elf Warrior Gate had just secured was instantly shattered by the surprise attack of the Crypt Demon Army, and it was no longer the same as before.
Arthas's arrangement was too unexpected, and the surprise attack of thousands of crypt demons instantly caused heavy losses to the High Elves stationed in the defense line of the Well of the Sun.
The High Elf warriors who were defending on the front line were almost stunned by this sudden blow, and for a while they did not form an effective resistance at all. Even the rangers and magisters who were firmly protected in the middle of the military formation, many of them were suddenly pierced through the chest by the crypt demons that burst out of the ground directly from under their feet, and pierced their chests with their spear-like insect feet.
The only ones who really reacted in time were the Arcane Guards who only had more than a hundred units left. Only these mechanical guards, who have already been entered into combat orders, will not fluctuate due to these unexpected changes, affecting their combat effectiveness...... It's a pity that the counterattack of more than a hundred arcane guards is a drop in the bucket in the flood of thousands of crypt demons.
In the first wave of blows alone, nearly a thousand of the elite soldiers of the High Elves were killed...... Such heavy casualties made the elven prince Kael'thas * the Sunchaser feel that his heart was dripping blood!
Like the Minotaurs, the High Elves are not a populous race. Even in terms of total population, Queldore is slightly less than Shuharu, who has been at war all year round. The total population is only nearly a million, and the strength of the entire Quel'Salas Kingdom is only more than 80,000 people... This is still the number before the invasion of the Scourge Legion......
But now, just a sneak attack planned by Arthas directly caused the elite legions of the two kingdoms of Sunfury and Flame Blade to lose nearly a thousand people, and it is no wonder that such a heavy loss will make Kael'thas be burned red with anger and hatred!
"Arthas, give me death!" With a roar, nine figures, including the elven prince's body, had already pounced on the Death Knight at the same time, and the eyes of each figure flashed with almost crazy hatred and anger.
Nine blades of cold light and glittering with magical light pierced straight into Arthas, who was mortally wounded and pale.
Seeing the blade reaching his body, the corners of Arthas's mouth were full of mocking smiles. Four deep holes suddenly appeared beside the Death Knight. The huge bodies of the four Crypt Demons with ninth-order strength broke through the ground and firmly guarded Arthas in the middle. In the next second, the four crypt demons had already rushed forward to intercept Kael'thas Deadly Kill, using their thick, sturdy, spiky chitin carapace to resist the edge of the magic blade......
"Puff puff!"
A series of sharp blades pierced into **, but the face of Kael'thas* Sunchaser was iron-blue.
The Leap Cutter is razor-sharp, but it's just a magic dagger after all. Always the Leap Cutter was able to effortlessly pierce through the thick chitin carapace of the Crypt Demons and plunge deep into the ** of these large spiders, but the damage inflicted by the dagger was insignificant to these undead Nibru worms. Not to mention that compared to the two perverted war hammers of Old Tang, even the battle axe that the elf prince gave to Old Tang is far from it......
After all, a blade like a dagger is too lethal and destructive against large creatures compared to heavy weapons like a tomahawk.
Glaring fiercely at the Death Knight who was guarded between the four big spiders, the elf prince gritted his teeth and pushed back with the other eight mirror images to pull away the distance, ready to use powerful spells to directly bombard these annoying big bugs. But before he could finish channeling the spell, dozens of strange-looking undead creatures had already rushed out of the four deep holes!
It has explosive muscular limbs, a hideous rotting dragon head, a dense and compact gray-black tough scale armor, and a clearly well-made bladed weapon...... If you ignore the rotten marks in the eyes and the disgusting stench emitted by these monsters, these guys who suddenly killed are a bunch of elite dragonmen!
Kael'thas felt a slight pang in his heart, and instantly thought of the origin of these undead dragonmen—the dragonman troops who suddenly appeared in Sunny Wind Village now, intending to attack his friend Good, but ended up fighting with the Scourge......
Cautiously glanced at these undead dragons, but the elven prince's heart sank to the bottom. Although the strength of these dozens of undead dragons is not high, each of them has a strength not lower than that of the eighth order. If it were in normal times, dozens of Rank 8 enemies would not be taken into account by the Kael'thas * Sunchaser at all.
But these miscellaneous fish, which the elven prince could easily deal with in a moment in the past, are now suddenly appearing enough to turn the tide of the battle between the two princes.
After all, Death Knight Arthas is an opponent that no one can afford to underestimate! Even if Kael'thas had already dealt a heavy blow to him, even this one-on-one elf prince would not dare to boast of killing the death knight 100% of the way. What's more, now that the Death Knight has so many powerful helpers by his side, it seems that trying to kill Arthas has become an impossible task......
And that's not all.
With the help of these dozens of eighth-order undead dragons and four ninth-order crypt lords, the shape between the two princes has been reversed, and now it is dangerous to become Prince Kael'thas himself!
The elven prince's face became more gloomy and angry, and the death knight let out a hearty laugh when he saw his opponent deflated:
"Kaizi, this is my newly recruited army of the dead, I think as a personal guard, they are much better than those ghouls before me! How's that, do you like it? As he spoke, Arthas carefully observed a corner of the battlefield without being noticed, and after a moment, he continued to tease the elven prince with a satisfied smile: "Don't worry, Kaizi! What you have with them is time to 'get close and close'! I think you're going to have a great time! ”
……
The entire Sunwell defense line is now in chaos, and fierce battles can be seen everywhere, and the High Elf warriors in the fierce battle have no time to care about the corner that the Death Knight has just focused on - the entrance to the Temple of the Sunwell - and that important place has now changed!
No one noticed that in the area full of High Elf wounded, a small team of undead, only a few hundred people, also broke through the ground and launched a surprise attack along with a large number of walking corpses of the Scourge Legion.
More than two hundred undead drakes, more than one hundred agile elite ghouls, and dozens of elite crypt demons...... and a dozen or so banshees with only soul bodies...... This is the composition of this small, inconspicuous force. And the undead commander of this elite detachment, who is afraid that there is another goal, is the sinner of Quel'Thalas, the traitor of the High Elves - Darkan!
……
As he spoke, the Death Knight's face had gradually become stricter, and he responded to the elven prince whose eyes were filled with anger without showing weakness, and Arthas, who sneered, slowly pulled the frost sorrow out of the earth under his feet, clasped it in his hand, and said word by word:
"As I said, Kaizi, the show has just begun...... Grand Overseer! ”
"Boss...... When Old Tang caught up with the cavalry troops, he quickly rushed to the forefront of the team, and a group of Minotaur warriors also greeted Old Tang one after another, and continued to kill and attack the walking corpses that were all over the mountains in front of him.
Having just taken back the command of the cavalry unit from the hands of the two guards of Black Horn and Cape, Old Tang suddenly felt a wave of eerie and evil energy fluctuations coming from the defense line of the Sun Well Defense Line. Old Tang, who had fought with Arthas in person, instantly sensed that this was the power of Frost's sorrow!
Old Don's heart sank suddenly, what kind of plane is Alsace? Amplification?
Old Tang, who was worried about the battle situation of the defense line and the safety of the elven prince, almost couldn't help but leave his large army behind once again and rush into the key area alone. But before Old Tang could make a decision, the brute horn that felt the ground tremble in the distance had already let out a warning roar, reminding its owner to be careful with his feet. And with the roar of the brute horns, a terrifying and murderous howl suddenly came from the clouds in the sky, which was particularly penetrating with the gloomy sky......
Old Tang narrowed his eyes slightly and looked up, only to see a huge shadow suddenly swooping down from the clouds. And when Old Tang recognized the huge body burning with a rich soul fire, his pupils suddenly dilated for a moment because of shock!
It's a frost dragon!
"How could there be such a thing in a natural disaster at this time?" Old Tang couldn't help but muttered in his heart, in his memory, the Scourge Legion had a ferocious weapon like the Frost Dragon to help him until Alsace returned north to Northrend, and this unexpected product that appeared in front of Old Tang's eyes now really made Old Tang confused about its origin.
"Nima, it can't be Safilon coming, right? You won't be so cheating! ”
Even if he was as strong as Old Tang, he couldn't help but feel numb when he thought that the enemy might suddenly appear as a hero-level frost dragon as a helper. After all, this is a real sky overlord, although they are also hero-level powerhouses, Old Tang would rather face the three Anubaraks than run into Saffron......
Fortunately, it didn't take long for Old Tang to tell from the breath of the Frost Dragon, this Frost Dragon was just a ninth-order product, which made Old Tang feel a lot more at ease. After a while, Old Tang put aside the doubts in his heart and decided to let the team speed up to rush through the interception of the undead natural disaster. After all, no matter what, it's certain that something has happened in the Sunwell's defense......
The most important thing now is to hurry up and join Prince Kael'thas and the High Elf defenders......
"Full speed ahead! Rush! ”
Raising the war hammer, Old Tang roared angrily again and gave the battle order!
……
The terrain of Queldanus Island is relatively small compared to the open area in front of Silvermoon City.
Hundreds of thousands of troops from both the coalition forces and the natural disaster are crowded here, which makes the battlefield of the Well of the Sun seem congested. Although the number of natural calamity undead was not as large as the battle of Silvermoon City, the dense military formation was no match for the previous natural calamity's 400,000 army formation.
In addition, the people brought by Arthas to attack the Well of the Sun are the elite forces of the Scourge Legion, and their combat effectiveness is good, so even if there are heavy Kodo beast cavalry in the cavalry unit of the reinforcements of Silvermoon City, these "heavy tanks of Azeroth" crush the way, and it takes a lot of time and strength to rush here. After slaughtering an unknown number of natural calamity undead, even the powerful impact power of the Kodo beast cavalry was basically exhausted, and they could no longer be crushed all the way as before......
After losing the impact and running distance, the road of the cavalry troops was difficult, and each yard of advance took several times as much time and energy as before...... If this continues, by the time the reinforcements join up with the High Elf defenders of the Sunwell Line, I am afraid that the battle will already be coming to an end. And the High Elf warriors who were fiercely besieged on the defensive line are estimated to be few left......
Fortunately, Lao Tang once had the foresight to bury a dark chess move!
Looking at the dense army of carrion in front of him, Old Tang waved his hammer again and again, clearing a safe area in front of him in an instant, and then quickly flipped through a very goblin style and nondescript fireworks stick from the magic backpack on his waist......
In the next second, Old Tang had already bitten the seal letter with his teeth, and suddenly raised the fireworks stick above his head to the sky!
"Whoosh~~~Bang!"
A huge fiery red firework suddenly exploded in the sky, standing out in the gray canopy before dusk! What is even more eye-catching is the loud bang that has already been formed after the emission of so many fireworks!
After coming to Azeroth, especially in the past year, Don has dealt with explosives, and he has personally planned several big scenes, and he can be regarded as a veteran of playing artillery battles.
But even so, Old Don could swear and promise that the loud noise emitted by this "firework" was louder and more piercing than any bomb he had ever seen! Even a guy like Lao Tang, who is so strong that he is perverted, is so shocked by this loud noise that his ears are buzzing!
"Ahem, ahem!"
"Damn! I knew goblin stuff wasn't reliable! ”
It took a while for the old Tang to recover from the tinnitus that he first coughed violently and then cursed angrily. When the fireworks stick was launched, in addition to the loud bang, a large cloud of black smoke was emitted from the tail pipe, all of which were collected by Old Tang and the two guards beside him.
At this moment, the image of the old Tang is a little grizzled by the wolf. The already pitch-black face was now as black as the bottom of a pot, and the armor that had been splashed with the bloody blood of the undead before was attached to the thick smoke and dust, and two puffs of smoke erupted from the nasal cavity with the sound of curses......
But the worst image at the moment is definitely Cape Kara*.
This white-skinned minotaur handsome guy has turned into a dark-faced Bao Gong face like Old Tang and Heijiao at this moment...... Let's just say that he is a warrior of the Horror Totem Clan, and some people believe it......
However, the appearance of Lao Tang and the two guards was not in vain.
Soon after the fireworks burst into the sky, a thin, ugly little green-skinned figure appeared in Old Tang's sight...... Q
