Lordaeron, the Eastern Plague Lands.

The sunset in the west sprinkled the last rays of light, and the hazy sky squeezed the airspace of the sunset.

When the last rays of light disappeared, a few thunderclaps streaked across the sky, and a light rain began to fall.

A simple memorial service is being held at the Chapel of the Wish of Light.

The leader of the Knights of the Silver Hand, Lightbringer Uther, solemnly covered the paladins who had died in battle with a white veil.

The atmosphere of mourning was filled with a muffled eulogy: "May the Light always protect you!" May the wind guide you on your way to Heaven! ”

"Life itself is meaningless, only death can make you understand the true meaning of human nature!"

"Have a nice trip!"

"You're not dead!"

"You're just leaving!"

……

Saidan Dasohan, the commander-in-chief of the Knights of the Silver Hand, a disciple of Alonthos Fao, the Archbishop of the Church of the Light, and one of the five pinnacle paladins of the first generation of the Silver Hand.

Saidan walked slowly to Uther's side and exclaimed, "They are all heroes, venerable warriors. It is better to bury them in the basement of the Chapel of Light's Wish as soon as possible, in case the Lich King finds out where these bodies are. ”

Utherson's cold gaze looked in the direction of Northrend, and said in a low voice: "Renault has returned from investigating the Northrend continent?" ”

Renaud Mograini, son of Grand Lord Alexandros Mograini, is one of the Four Knights of the Sanctuary in the second generation of the Knights of the Silver Hand.

Saidan said in a deep voice: "The Lich King Neozu lurks in the Glacier Crown of Northrend, and has exterminated the underground humanoid spider kingdom of Northrend, and the former Spider King Anubrak was resurrected by Neozu to become the Crypt Lord......"

"As the letter from the Prince of Arthas says, the Lich King Neozu is nothing more than the vanguard of the Burning Legion's invasion of Azeroth, clearing the way for the Burning Legion's arrival, just as the two orc invasion wars did."

Saidan paused, frowned, and wondered, "I just don't know where Prince Arthas got the news?" ”

Uther's mind crossed over Arthas's order to purify Stratholme, and he muttered, "Arthas, what secret are you hiding?" ”

At this time, Darien Mograini hurriedly walked in and said anxiously: "The Dark Lord Tikdios led the Scourge Legion and blocked the Cowlin intersection; In addition, Cryptlord Anubarak is leading a Scourge legion that is attacking the Crown Tower with the intention of invading Talon County. ”

Darien Mograini, the youngest son of Grand Lord Alexandros Mograini, is one of the Four Knights of the Sanctuary in the second generation of the Knights of the Silver Hand.

Uther frowned, looked at the body of the paladin who died in battle, turned his head to Sedan, and ordered: "The burial of the paladin will be left to you." ”

Saidan nodded, silently directing the knights to transport the remains to the catacombs of the Chapel of the Light's Wish.

Uther turned to Darien and said, "Follow me to the combat command room." ”

……

Chapel of the Light's Wish, the Battle Command Room of the Knights of the Silver Hand.

In the dimly lit command room, Uther lit the candles on the conference table, flickering candles, and colorful figures. A rudimentary command room, a rectangular conference table, and a large topographical map of the Lordaeron continent on the white wall facing the door.

Uther narrowed her eyes slightly, intently surveying the Lordaeron Scourge Legion's reach.

From the northernmost city of Stratholme, passing through the Sick Wood Forest, the North Guard Tower, and the Tower of the East Wall all fell.

The Korin junction on the northeastern continent of Lordaeron is the main road to the city of Stratholme in the north, the Chapel of the Wish of Light, and the royal capital of Lordaeron in the west.

The Scourge Legion is stationed at the Cowling Crossing, which is equivalent to cutting off the connection between the Knights of the Silver Hand and the royal capital of Lordaeron, and from then on, the Knights of the Silver Hand will be a lone army, without supplies and backups, and will be trapped and killed in the Chapel of the Wish of Light.

The most worrying thing is that after the Cryptlord Anubrak's raid on the Crown Watchtower and Talon County, he can not only attack Andohar and intimidate the royal capital of Lordaeron, but also corrupt the people along the way, strengthen the Scourge Legion, and maybe even exterminate the Knights of the Silver Hand.

The baton in Uther's hand was drawn from the Kaorin junction to the north, pointing to the Tower of the Eastern Wall, and said in a deep voice: "There is no news from Tyran Ferdin, who guards the Tower of the Eastern Wall. ”

Tyran Fordin, son of Tirio Fording, is one of the four knights of the Sanctuary in the second generation of the Knights of the Silver Hand

Tirio Fortin, a disciple of Archbishop Alonthos Fao of the Church of the Light, is one of the five pinnacle paladins of the first generation of the Silver Hand.

Darian shook his head and said in a deep voice, "Captain Tyran's whereabouts are unknown, and his life and death are unknown. ”

Uther frowned and said, "With the cultivation of Tailan's holy realm, it will not be wiped out without even sending a single message. ”

Uther turned to Darien and said in a deep voice, "How is the Crown Tower doing?" ”

Darian said in a deep voice: "The caveman demon under the Crypt Lord Anubaraq has the 'Drill into the Ground' skill, and Gavinrad Doom is busy running for his life, so I'm afraid he won't last long. ”

Gavinrad Doom, a disciple of Alonthos Fao, Archbishop of the Church of Light, and one of the five pinnacle paladins of the first generation of the Silver Hand.

Uther waved his hand and muttered, "I understand Gavinrad's strength, and it will take at least three days for Crypt Lord Anubarak to conquer the Crown Tower. ”

Darion worried, "Then should we break through now, or send out the Griffin Knights to rescue the Crown Tower." ”

Uther turned and stared at the large map, his gaze from the Crown Tower, along the Mares Farm, the Sodoril River, etc., to Andorhar, and whispered, "How many people along the way have not been evacuated?" ”

Darian said in a deep voice: "The tower of the eastern wall was lost suddenly, and it will take at least three days for the people who have evacuated west along the way to Taloon County to evacuate to Andorhar. ”

Uther paused, his deep eyes staring at Darion, "Darion, you lead a team of griffon knights to the Crown Tower to support Gavinrad. In addition, send a messenger to Andohar to ask for help from the main army of Lordaeron, led by Generalissimo Garisos. ”

"No." Darien turned and strode away.

……

"Darien." A shout interrupted Darian's steps.

When Darien heard the reputation, it was Renault, "Big brother, is there something wrong?" ”

Renaud walked slowly beside Darion, waved his hand, and said to Darion's guards, "You go down first." ”

The surrounding paladins paused and looked at Darien.

Darien nodded, motioning for him to leave a hundred paces.

Darien stared at Renault and wondered, "What's wrong?" ”

Renault whispered in his ear, "I think Commander Saidan Dathohan has been taken over by the Dreadlord Banazal. ”

Darion was stunned when he heard this, and exclaimed: "Saidan Dasohan's predecessor, but he is a disciple of Alonthos Fao, the Archbishop of the Holy Light Church, one of the five peak paladins of the first generation of the Silver Hand, and the commander of the Silver Hand Knights. How could it be possible to be occupied by the Dreadlord Banazal. ”

"Shh Renaud was silent, "Darien, be quiet, I'm not sure, but from Saidan's predecessor, I feel a trace of darkness, which is very similar to the Dreadlord Banazar I met." ”

Darien frowned and said, "Did you report this matter to Uther?" ”

Renault shook his head, "I'm not sure either, so I want you to go with me to make sure." ”

Darien nodded, "Okay, where is Commander Saidan now?" ”

Renaud said in a low voice, "Senior Saidan has placed the remains of a paladin in the underground graveyard of the Chapel of the Wish of Light. ”

Darien frowned and said worriedly, "If your guess is true, then the remains of the paladin are in danger. ”

"Let's go, we'll go check it out now."

……

The Catacombs of the Light's Wish.

Renaud and Darian walked slowly into the underground cemetery, the lights flickering, and they saw a column of death knights standing in the graveyard.

Saidan Dasohan smiled at the two of them and said lightly, "Renault, good job. ”

"Huh." A sharp blade pierced through Darian's chest.

Darien looked back at Renault in disbelief, "Big brother. ”

Renault's expression was cold, and he said lightly: "Brother, don't worry, you will get eternal life immediately." ”

Renault twisted the blade in his hand with great force, and dark red blood sprayed out like a fountain. Darien's eyes gradually lost focus, and his hollow eyes stared at Darien, as if asking Darien silently.

"Huh." Renault drew his sword and thrust it into the ground, chanting the undead resurrection spell in his mouth, and a green glow appeared in his hands, surging towards Darian's body.

The wounds on Darien's body healed at a speed visible to the naked eye, and as Renault chanted the incantation, runes appeared around Darien's body, and his skin became more and more pale, without a trace of blood, and his brown-yellow hair gradually lost its color, turning into a silver white hair.

It didn't take long for Darien to open his eyes, get down on one knee, bow to Renault, and say, "Meet my lord." ”

The corners of Saidan's mouth curled slightly, he looked at Renault, and said lightly: "Naozu, it's time for us to visit our old friend Uther. ”

Naozu, who was in control of Renault's spirit, said to Banazal, who occupied Saidan Dasohan's body, "According to the plan, you are responsible for transferring some of the paladins out of the camp, and I will lead these three thousand death knights to snipe Uther. ”

Banazar smiled, "Don't worry, I have contacted my lord Tikdios to feign a night attack on Tyre tonight, and I will take the opportunity to ask Uther to allow me to lead a group of paladins to protect Tyre. ”

"Then, the main force of the Scourge will take a strategic approach and attack the Chapel of Light's Wish with all its might."

"Then, you lead the resurrection army to launch a surprise attack from the inside, and you should cooperate with the outside to snipe Uther."

Naozu nodded and went his separate ways.

……

Banazal, who occupied Saidan's body, looked at Uther and said anxiously: "Tyre City has come to report that the vanguard of the Scourge Legion has attacked Tyre City at night. ”

"I'm willing to lead some of the paladins to the rescue."

Uther didn't doubt his thoughts, and said in a deep voice, "Go ahead." ”

"No." Banazar strode back and sent a group of paladins to Tyre.

……

Under the night moon, the Scourge slammed into the Chapel of Light's Wish like a tidal wave.

Uther frowned, her sharp eyes stared at the Dreadlord in the sky, and said coldly, "Who are you?" ”

"Under the Dreadlord Tykootis, I've seen Uther, the Lightbringer."

"Uther, Lightbringer, abandon your weapons and surrender, you're at your wit's end."

Uther pulled out the giant hammer behind his back and said coldly: "Life itself is meaningless, only death can make people understand the true meaning of human nature!" ”

"Come, Tikootis will fight me to the death."

Tikootis smiled coldly, shook his head, and mocked, "It's really pathetic. ”

Uther narrowed his eyes slightly, his sharp eyes staring at Tikootis, "Kill." ”

"Holy Shield ......"

"Poof." A sword pierced Uther's chest, interrupting Uther from activating her invincibility skills.

Uther looked back at the visitor, "Renault, you ......"

"In the Lower Lich King Neozu has seen Uther the Lightbringer." Nao Zu said lightly.

"Immortal piety!"

A humanoid golden invincible soul escaped from Uther's body, and in the soul state, Uther continued to use his skills to fight, but only to 50% of the effect.

"Holy Storm!"

"Sanctions, sanctions!"

"The light shines!"

……

A few seconds later.

Naozu stared at Uther's body and said lightly, "Respectable warrior, I would rather blow up my soul than compromise. ”

Tikootis watched as the battle on the ground drew to a close, and pulled out an envelope from his bosom with two Achilles' weaknesses written on it:

"1. The soldiers at the bottom are all unintelligent creatures."

"2. There is a shortage of commander-in-chief talents."

Tikotis Sen stared at Naozu with a cold gaze, "The person who gave us this letter is the most terrifying person. ”

Nao Zu bowed his head and said, "No matter what the other party's purpose is, at least for now, we have occupied the northeast continent of Lordaeron. ”

"Next, as long as we transform a large number of Terran generals, and unify and standardize the Scourge Legion, we will definitely be able to defeat the royal capital of Lordaeron and Dalaran, obtain the Book of Medivan, and summon Akmund to descend on Azeroth."
