Chapter 697: The Battle of Heavenly Damnation—Dark Storm
Finally, the Red Dragons, armed with the flames of life energy, purified the withering potion of the Forsaken, along with all the warriors within.
When Crassus, who had once again transformed into an elf form, stood in front of him, Xie Feng stared at him viciously, eager to stab him directly!
The whole battle didn't see the shadow of the red dragons from beginning to end, not even a fireball at Kel'thugad! But in the end, he waited until everyone was served by the forsaken before he ran out to clean up the mess.
The master, who had always been respected by Dalaran and even the entire mortal world, felt very unhappy in the face of Xie Feng's bad attitude, frowned, and asked very dissatisfiedly, "Alex, you don't want to explain the matter of the Forsaken?" ”
Beside him, Berval and Leorik, and Gianna, who had come with him, stared at him with the same ugly faces. If it weren't for the fact that the blood elves were also affected, and finally rescued the two heroes, perhaps they would have directly drawn their weapons and turned their faces at this time.
"Explain?" Xie Feng was angry and pointed directly at his nose: "What did you do during the whole battle?" Looking for me to explain? ”
After speaking, he turned his head and glared at Gianna angrily: "The reinforcements from Dalaran you said are the last to let the red dragon end?" ”
He's really on the verge of going berserk this time! After so much time in Azeroth, he didn't count his teammates in the first big battle, and he accidentally wiped out all his teammates! I can't help but let him not get angry.
Forget about the rest of the troops! The Seventh Legion is the main force of the Northern Expedition, and it is a mixed army, and nearly thirty percent of the High Elves are the elite who have experienced countless bloody battles. He was still thinking about when he would be able to get out of the hands of the Alliance, and it was better now.
He didn't have a good impression of the red dragon, and Crassus's questioning made him even more angry!
Gianna was silent in the face of questioning, and she could feel that Xie Feng was really angry. And the Red Dragons do have some of them
It was the first time that Crassus had been insulted like this, and his heart was also full of anger, the staff slammed on the ground, and the snow around him was swept away and melted in an instant, and the archmage said in a cold voice: "You dare to say that you don't know anything about the actions of the Forsaken? ”
Pointing to the plague throwing cart that was burning on the southern platform, he sneered, "Why can you recognize it as the Great Apothecary Putres in the first place?" Why is the big action covering the entire Dragonbone Wilderness, the Forsaken being excluded?! ”
After all, he is the first wise man of the Red Dragon Clan, and he said the key in one sentence, attracting the suspicious eyes of the three Terran heroes.
Xie Feng's expression froze, then he glanced at the four of them, and said sarcastically with a smile: "No matter how much I know, can there be more bronze dragons?" Why don't you question them?! Even if I wanted to send the Forsaken into battle, would you agree?! ”
In a word, let the three Terran heroes be silent. Even if it's Thrall and Medivan, can there be a bronze dragon to know, right?
After being silent for a long time, Duke Boval looked at Xie Feng and said solemnly: "Alex, I believe this is not your instructions. ”
"Hehe, what a rare tolerance." Xie Feng laughed at himself and shook his head to stare at the sea of fire below that had not yet been extinguished.
"I trust the Blood Elves and will not do anything to you, but the Forsaken must pay for what they have done!" Bolval was a little annoyed, but he still held back his anger and gritted his teeth, "The cooperation between the alliance and the tribe is over!" ”
Xie Feng narrowed his eyes, his tone was as flat as possible, and asked rhetorically, "What do you think, or Varian?" Or even the entire Union ?! ”
"You can understand it the way you want!" Bolval did not say anything, and seemed absolutely resolute: "The Alliance has lost the necessary trust in you!" My soldiers fought valiantly but died at the hands of their allies, and I must give them an account! ”
After a pause, he continued, "You'd better be able to convince Prince Kael'thas and the Great Chief if you don't want to start a big war. ”
"The Great War?" Xie Feng's eyebrows jumped, and he turned his head to stare at Gianna: "Madam, you also think the same way?!" ”
The archmage's cold gaze did not flinch and looked at him, gritted his teeth and said coldly: "The Seventh Legion, it's my subordinates!" ”
Such resolute words made Xie Feng stunned for a long time. He never thought that Kefna, who had devoted her life to the peace of the Alliance and the Horde, would say such a thing! Laughed and said: "I never thought that one day you would be swayed by emotions and it is very rare~"
After speaking, he didn't even look at Crassus, who was pale, and turned into Acanagos, and left directly.
After half a day of cleaning and clearing, the troops finally evacuated the area around the Twilight Fortress and set off for home.
Passing through the Dragonbone Wilderness and near the Grizzly Hills Boundary River, the Bear Monsters cross the bridge and return home, while the Blood Elves step aboard the warship.
Inside the Bloodoath command room. Prince Kael'thas, Passaren, Romans, Tallonix and Xie Feng had a heated discussion~
The Gate of Damnation incident was staged ahead of schedule, which caught Xie Feng off guard, and it also disrupted Silvermoon City's plan!
The calculator Passarein fiddled with the 'abacus' casually and pinched his eyebrows vigorously: "Alex, you said you could stop it!" ”
The sudden change made the prince's first think tank a big headache, and many arrangements were not in place, and those that had already been arranged still needed to be changed. It takes a lot of energy! Passaren didn't just complain in anguish.
Xie Feng was speechless about this. Can you blame Putress for not being at the gate of damnation, but in the twilight of winter? Or did you say that your prophetic prophecy was wrong? He smiled bitterly: "I'm sorry, it was my negligence!" I didn't expect them to choose this time. ”
"It has to be so, Alex." Prince Kael'thas patiently explained, "It's not your fault. It's very rare that you can find something strange about the Forsaken! It's just that all of us don't pay enough attention. ”
Tallonix patted Xie Feng on the shoulder to comfort: "Don't dwell on the mistakes that have happened, what we have to do is to make amends!" ”
Roman nodded in agreement, then frowned: "The alliance will not rest on its laurels, we must"
"Neither will the tribe!" Prince Kael'thas interrupted, "Neither Sal nor Varian will let go of this rare opportunity. ”
Xie Feng and Passaren glanced at each other and nodded slightly.
Since the events of the Tripartite Pact before the Storm Fortress, the Blood Elves, who have grown in strength, have become inseparable from the Horde. If you lose Undercity, both Alterac and Hammer Town will become enclaves! It was difficult for the tribe to penetrate the northern continent and lose a large part of the territory.
And if the alliance controls the Undercity, it will gradually encroach on the old territory of the Lordaeron Kingdom with its former influence, and even if it is reluctant, Riptide Castle, Eagle's Nest Mountain, Kurtilas, and even Gilneth will not dare to make any small moves.
Whoever benefits or loses the Undercity will be left alone. The tribe is better, at least the blood elves have not quit yet, and with Thrall's personality and style, they will not force Silvermoon City to the point of turning against each other. It's not impossible for the blood elves to join the alliance again! If it's an alliance, the blood elves may not even be able to get out of the ghost land!
Being able to say the words of beware of the tribe has proved that the prince's political sense is definitely not low. That's what satisfies the two.
"Your Highness, in what name are we interfering in the Undercity? Assault? But Tallonix was a little helpless: "Now everyone thinks that General Sylvanas betrayed the coalition forces, and if we forcibly intervene, it may backfire!" ”
Romans nodded, pointing to the location of the Eastern Plaguelands on the map, and added, "The Blightburner Legion has mostly been drawn into the Avengers. But he himself was still holding near the Crown Tower, and Haduron only infiltrated a small number of troops. ”
At this time, even Xie Feng felt a little tricky, and covered his head: "So, even if we want to attack, we don't have the strength?" ”
The four of them nodded at the same time, and then Passaren shook his head again and added, "It's not impossible, we use a small number of elite troops to enter the Undercity through the sewers and carry out a decapitation operation!" ”
"The decapitation operation is also a method" Xie Feng remembered that Varian and the others were killed through the sewers.
"Wait," he suddenly felt that something was wrong, "the Undercity has already started a rebellion?" Where is General Sylvanas? ”
He remembered that after the rebellion, Queen Xi escaped to Orgrimmar to ask Thrall for help, and then the Horde attacked the Undercity.
From the beginning of the rebellion to Queen Xi's escape from the Dark City, she came back with her troops to kill her, but she crossed the endless sea. Even if a large number of airship airlift troops are mobilized, it will take at least half a month! And Varian's arrival from Stormwind is also a long way off.
Prince Kael'thas wondered: "It's not that you said that Putress and Varemasa are wrong!" ”
Speaking of which, the prince also realized that something was wrong! The five of them looked at each other.
The calculator excitedly said, "According to the information provided by Sinjid, Putress and Varimassas will launch a rebellion at the same time. Glancing at Xie Feng, he continued, "If Putress' attack on the Twilight Fortress was improvised, then the Undercity"
"Even if you use the fastest magic to teleport, Varimatas knows about the Battle of Twilight Fortress for the first time, the rebellion will still take a certain amount of time to prepare!" Romans clenched his fists and waved fiercely: "We still have a chance!" ”
Tallonix immediately got up: "General Sylvanas must be alerted as soon as possible!" Otherwise"
"No!" The prince waved his hand suddenly, his eyes lowered, and stared at the map in front of him. In a calm tone, he commanded, "Let Haduron deliver a message to the Undercity, saying that I want to make an urgent appointment with the Queen of Darkness!" As for the location"
Xie Feng winked at the stunned chief technician and said with a smile, "How is Maris Farm?" ”
He now really has a feeling of admiration for the prince, and he can get to the point accurately every time.
The key to the battle for the Undercity lies in Sylvanas, the Banshee King himself! Whoever controls the Banshee King, or who she asks for help, will have the initiative in the battle of the Undercity! And the Blightcaster is not only a disciple and henchman of Sylvanas, but his troops are also the largest and strongest local garrison of the Forsaken outside of the Undercity Garrison and the Polluter Legion!
Tallonix took the order to retreat, and solved a matter on his mind, Xie Feng and Passaren breathed a sigh of relief.
Not long after, Romans was also dispatched to Sword Bay to take the lead in building a large long-range magic teleportation array leading to Silvermoon City.
He also talked about some details about the Battle of the Undercity and added omissions. The calculator said worriedly, "Your Royal Highness. If the Scourge takes advantage of our lack of time to attack the Gate of Damnation."
Prince Kael'thas didn't answer, but looked at Xie Feng with a smile: "Alex, what is your opinion?" ”
"There won't be a problem anytime soon!" Xie Feng replied firmly, but then he thought of the twilight tragedy that had just happened. With some embarrassment on his face, he added: "Or will I go to the town now?" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the prince waved his hand and categorically refused: "No, you are best suited to negotiate with General Sylvanas, and you must return to Silvermoon City." The Gate of Damnation is given to Liadline for the time being, and if necessary, the camp can be abandoned and retreated to Agmar's Hammer Camp. ”
The prince was also a little helpless. He found that among all the blood elves, the one that Sylvanas recognized and favored the most was not Hadurun, Lothema and other old subordinates, nor his prince, but the morning blade general.
Xie Feng was naturally willing to do so. However, he was still a little worried: "Liadrin's lack of experience, how about letting Passaren stay?" ”
The prince then shifted his gaze, and the calculator shrugged his shoulders: "As you wish!" ”
The fleet sailed down the river and returned to Sword Bay in the afternoon. Return to Silvermoon City through the teleportation array set up by Romans, the Prince, and Xie Feng.
Appearing in the familiar royal court, although he didn't leave for long, Xie Feng still felt a little cordial.
Lotherma was still buried behind the copy, pulling her hair hard, perhaps for a long time. Although the daily work is still busy, there is less pressure to carry the future of the entire race on your shoulders. The frowning brow disappeared.
Maybe you're already having fun? The other nobles and court mages of the Silver Moon Council did not have the haze, confusion, and pretended arrogance of the past, and their faces were full of energy and reserve, and their bodies were full of energy.
Escorted by two teams of lawbreakers, the patrolling Arcane Guards no longer chanted the same poems in praise of the Prince. It was replaced with the daily greetings of the blood elves, which seemed warm and cordial.
Walking on the road, the people will bow from the bottom of their hearts and show their respect, not only to the prince. The bulletin board also posted a reward order for Alex, a continent-level wanted criminal, and Xie Feng inadvertently skimmed it and couldn't help laughing.
The prince, the spellbreaker, and the surrounding blood elves let out a good-natured laugh when they heard this.
This is the Silvermoon City I want! Feel that thriving vigor and a sense of pride.
Xie Feng couldn't help but clench his left hand behind his back.
Before the group passed through the Shepherd's Gate and were about to ride the dragon eagle, Kael'thas looked back and smiled, "Why don't you go back to the manor?" ”
Thinking of the manor, Jovia's warm and powerful eyes came to mind. Xie Feng was slightly distracted, and then refused with a smile: "No! When the Northern Expedition is over, there is time to reunite. Let's get down to business. ”
The prince did not persuade and turned over and jumped onto the dragon eagle, and the lawbreakers followed closely and flew south.
Xie Feng picked one at random to follow, slightly behind the prince, overlooking the scene of the Yongge Forest.
The scars of death still exist, but after so much time of cleaning, there are not many undead left, and the trolls of Torvassa have long been beaten out. In the distance, thousands of sails are gathered in Yangfan Harbor, and the large army that is about to participate in the Northern Expedition is making its final rest.
Sunny Wind Village and the Far Wanderer's Camp are no longer empty houses, and with the return of the Outlander Elite, the Blood Elves have enough troops to fill most of the barracks, especially after Lothama and Haduron expanded to the limit before the Battle of Sunwells!
Soon, the Eternal Song Forest is left behind, and the Ghost Land with its unique dim hues comes into view.
This place that once closed him to a dead end, and it is also the place where he really made his way and started his rise. It is also the region where he harvested his first love. I've been here many times since then, but it's never been as easy as it is now.
Whether the Northern Expedition succeeds or fails, the blood elves have already risen! There is no need to be as cautious as at the beginning, and there is no urgency.
"Haduron is stationed in Taquilin." The prince casually glanced to the east: "With the main force of the Far Traveler." ”
Hearing this, Xie Feng was a little curious about the prince's tone and asked, "The trolls are a little restless?" ”
"It's not just trolls!" Saying this, Kael'thas even felt a little helpless: "And those 'cute' locusts." ”
I don't know what came to mind, so I couldn't help but laugh and said, "They have caused a lot of trouble for Hadurun. Haha~"
Adventurer? Although it can't make any big waves, it is definitely a headache for everyone, and if you leave it alone, it will be a 'Alex' or 'Rommel', but it is too difficult to clean up, and the gains outweigh the losses.
Xie Feng can imagine what Hadurun, a traditional ranger general, will be annoyed by them~
Just before sunset, the team landed at the Taquilin flight point.
When I came to the central tower, I saw Hadurun walking in from the outside, carrying Solidar.
Seeing Kael'thas in person, General Ranger hurriedly turned over and saluted: "Good day, Your Highness." ”
Kael'thas nodded and stepped into the tower first, asking as he went, "Did General Sylvanas respond?" ”
"She's agreed." Hadurun waved his hand to Xie Feng and replied, "But we still need to agree on a specific time." ”
As he spoke, he had already entered the conference room, and the three of them sat down, and Kael'thas said casually, "It seems that it hasn't started yet." ”
"It could be tonight, too." Xie Feng nodded and proposed, "How about the time set for tomorrow morning?" In addition, pass on the events of Northrend Winter's Fortress, and I believe that General Sylvanas will leave immediately! ”
Kael'thas nodded and asked, "How's the preparation?" How many troops can be mobilized in the Undercity? ”
As early as after Xie Feng told the higher-ups about the rebellion in the Dark City, Silver Moon City had already begun to make arrangements.
Haduron's expression was solemn: "There are three hundred people stationed in the Undercity, in the name of the envoy guards. In addition, there are a hundred 'caravan guards' in Deathtown, 500 people stationed in the Valley of the Hearth, and 700 people stationed in the Scarlet Church in the name of escorting supplies. In addition, there may be about 2,500 infiltrated in the afternoon as adventurers and mercenaries, all of which are Sun Fury troops and a small number of lawbreakers. ”
Shaking his head helplessly, he said, "This is already the limit!" General Sylvanas is not a fool. (To be continued......)
