Chapter 215: Night Town and the Night's Watch

The two of them spent the morning in the quiet northern part of the Valley of Thorns, waiting for the morning sun to rise, gesturing to some of the makeshift camps from last night, and turning the valley into the twilight forest.

Compared to the Valley of Thorns, Xie Feng really doesn't know much about the situation in the Twilight Forest, after all, this is the territory of the Alliance, except for the time when he passed by Stone, Karazan and other places, there is almost no deep impression on the others, but he still knows some famous areas here. For example, the Emerald Dream entrance in the Dawn Forest and the Green Dragons guarding it, Nighttown and its Night's Watch troops, the graveyards on Raven Ridge, and the Split Fist Ogre of Vorgur. However, these are only the names of them, and he has hardly been to any other place except for the unexpected places in Night Town. His biggest impression here is the battle of wits and courage between V University and the third brother and the alliance, and the rest is just some hearsay.

Geographically speaking, to the north of the Twilight Forest is the Elwyn Forest, where Stormwind City is located, to the west is the Western Wilderness, to the east is the Upwind Trail where Karazan is located, to the northeast there is a path leading to Red Ridge Mountain, and to the south is the Valley of Thorns where Xie Feng and the others came.

As the name suggests, the weather here is affected by unknown magic, and every day it is foggy and eerie. Although the primeval rainforest of the Valley of Thorns was dense and covered the sky, there was still bright sunlight shining through the branches of the trees, but the sky of the twilight forest was all shrouded in a magical fog, and the sun was not shining for half a day, and it was all gray and white when you were in it, as if night was approaching.

Leaving the irritating Thorn Valley dense forest, the two of them no longer rode on each other, and began to bully Xie Feng's military horse again. When he passed through here before, maybe Xie Feng's level was too high, but he didn't feel that it was too dangerous, and he followed the road in a grand manner, without taking this nominal alliance territory into account at all.

Perhaps affected by the oppressive environment around them, the two of them didn't talk much since they entered the twilight forest, quietly snuggling together and letting the military horses move forward along the road at turtle speed. From time to time, one or two huge spiders flashed in the abandoned farmland and orchards on the roadside, and there was not even a ghost shadow in the surrounding wilderness, only the strange chirping of the night owl and one or two mournful wolf howls from time to time, and the crisp hooves of the horses when they ran complemented each other, rendering the atmosphere more gloomy and desolate.

The scene flashing in front of him made Xie Feng sigh involuntarily, surviving in such a harsh environment, not to mention all kinds of enemies, but the depressing atmosphere is enough to drive people crazy, I really can't imagine how much nostalgia the people of Night Town have for their hometown to stay here without hesitation, instead of going to a relatively more comfortable flash into the town to live. Perhaps it was these simple, tenacious people who had propped up Stormwind's decaying regime

As he thought about it, the horses had reached the first fork in the twilight forest, the road to the west to the Raven Ridge Graveyard and the Wild West, and the east to Nighttown and the Windward Trail. In this weird environment, Xie Feng didn't have much interest in playing, just tightened the reins and let the military horse turn to the left, when a ray of light suddenly appeared on the road ahead, and then a loud shout came into his ears: "Elf, stop your steps!" ”

Xie Feng was stunned for a moment, hurriedly reined in his military horse, and carefully looked at the sound in front of him, a one-eyed human warrior with an eye patch, holding a blue long sword in one hand and a flickering lantern in the other, was vigilantly walking here. Looking at his outfit, Xie Feng immediately understood that the person in front of him should be a night watchman in Night Town.

If you want to reach the swamp of sorrows, Nighttown is the only way to go. In the past, they would ride their horses directly across or bypass the town, but now Xie Feng didn't think that he could do this, the night watchman troops could protect the safety of the townspeople in this harsh environment, and their strength would definitely not be bad, and there were outposts here, how could they not set up more sentry posts around the town?

Nighttown is blocked at the entrance to the Upwind Trail, and it's a complete joke to get around! Compared to such a sneaky smuggling, it was more practical to get the permission of the Night's Watch to come around the town, after all, the Alliance had agreed that the Tribe's supply line to Stoned would pass through here, and it should be no problem to pretend to be a messenger as Xie Feng, and their commander would not embarrass himself

Ready to plan, Xie Feng very obediently reined in the war horse and stopped there, and responded loudly: "Brave night watch warrior, we just want to reach Stoneard through here, and we don't have any ill will towards Night Town, I hope there will be no misunderstanding between us~"

At this time, he couldn't help but be a little glad that the adventurers had mastered the lingua franca for free, otherwise how could he let him have a good negotiation with a human? According to the reaction that should have been done under the language barrier before、I have already taken the Sindore Giant Sword and slashed it over。

Originally, seeing Xie Feng's cooperative action, the night watchman relaxed his vigilance slightly, but then after hearing his words, his heart was raised, and he stood still with his horizontal sword, looking at Xie Feng and the others vigilantly: "Stoner? Are you a tribe? Blood elves? ”

The High Elves were divided internally, half of which became the revival home of the Blood Elves, while the other half was attached to the Alliance to prepare for a comeback, which not only greatly damaged the vitality of the kingdom, but also caused great headaches for the adventurers on both sides. When you see an elf in the wild, your first reaction is to see if their eyes are sapphire blue or emerald green, and most of the time, this reaction is long enough for him to lose the chance to take the lead, so he often guards against it first, keeps his guard, and is invincible.

The night watchman Dounts fell into this embarrassing situation at this time, he saw the two elves riding together and was about to move in the direction of Night Town, and immediately came out to shout to stop, the two elves stopped their mounts in time, and the female elf in front of him also had blue eyes unique to the High Elf clan, which made him breathe a little relieved. But the male elf who spoke from behind the female elf had emerald green eyes, and their mount was also a standard Quel'Salas-style warhorse.

High Elves and Blood Elves riding together? What the hell is to be done? Dounts was torn

Xie Feng saw that he heard that he was a blood elf and began to be on guard, thinking that it was caused by the hostility of the tribe, and hurriedly explained: "I am indeed a blood elf, but this does not mean that I will be hostile to Night Town, doesn't the alliance have an agreement that the tribe can reach Stoneard through Night Town?" Could it be that the valiant Night's Watch forces would be concerned about the threat that just two Blood Elves could pose to Nighttown? ”

In the face of Xie Feng's agitation, the night watchman Douci was still unmoved, and looked at the two of them with a calm face: "There is indeed this agreement, but it is limited to the tribe's transport team and regular personnel, not casual adventurers!" In addition, I can't help but question the courage of our night watchmen, and the cautious attitude is only to better protect the townspeople! ”

Xie Feng's answer to the night watchman secretly praised in his heart, and he knew that the whole leopard was at a glance, and he could guess how the entire night watch army existed just by the heart of the warrior in front of him! Put away his arrogant face and smiled: "We are not ordinary adventurers, this time we went to Stoneard to meet my mentor to report information about the situation of the demons in the Cursed Lands, and we are completely within the scope of the agreement, you can't stop it!" ”

"Really?" When the night watchman Douci heard Xie Feng say that he wanted to convey information about the demon, his face suddenly became solemn, but he still did not let down his vigilance: "Who is that mentor of yours?" How do I determine your identity? ”

"Varok Sarufar! However, humans are more accustomed to calling him a butcher or an executioner. As he spoke, he pulled out the Sindolei Greatsword that was stretched out on his back, held the hilt of the sword with one hand and slammed it to the ground, raising his whole body and staring at the night watchman with a dead momentum: "I think this sword can prove my identity!" ”

Xie Feng, who is also a fifth-order professional, aroused the vigilance of Douz the moment he raised his momentum, and when he saw the two-handed giant sword he took out, his pupils shrank imperceptibly, and then he breathed a sigh of relief and said: "This can indeed prove your identity, but whether you can pass through Night Town I don't count, this needs to be approved by our commander, Ms. Eberlock!" ”

"The news has just reached the town, and I think someone will come to greet us soon, and I hope you will cooperate as you do now." Daows looked at Xie Feng and the others lightly, retreated to the middle of the trees on the side, and rested quietly.

Xie Feng was stunned, he understood the meticulous thinking of this warrior, and sent the news back before jumping out to stop it, so that even if he was an enemy and he was killed, he could be prepared and not be caught off guard, and just two blood elves could be vigilant to such a point, with such a group of dedicated scouts and warriors, it was no wonder that Night Town could maintain until now surrounded by a group of enemies.

Shrugged helplessly, gently put down the somewhat reluctant pout, then put the military horse away, walked to the side of the tree stump and sliced it flat with a greatsword, and sat there waiting for the Night's Watch to come. The night watchman ignored the movements of the two and still sat quietly on the side, but the casual gaze still let Xie Feng know that he didn't want to be so indifferent as he appeared.

After waiting for about a quarter of an hour, before the night watchman troops of Night Town could rush over, there was a chaotic sound of footsteps and a burst of noise from the fork in the road on the right, and a large group of huge shadows gradually appeared in the mist in the distance, from far to near, attracting Xie Feng and Tyri's attention, and the night watchman Douts involuntarily stood up, picked up his weapon and walked to the side of the road, fully guarded
