Chapter 296: The tentacles of the natural calamity

The Kingdom of Lordaeron is located in the Eastern Kingdom of Azeroth, a subcontinent to the north. Thousands of years ago, Lordaeron's ancestors went through a long and brutal war to defeat the trolls and occupy this fertile land. After thousands of years of evolution, it finally became the Kingdom of Lordaeron today.

Terenas Minahir II was the king of modern-day Lordaeron. According to the standards of ancient kings, this monarch can be called a benevolent monarch. It may also be the reason why Lordaeron is the origin of the Light. The entire kingdom of Lordaeron can be regarded as the most benevolent of the Seven Kingdoms.

Terenus received the emissary from Stormtown. Listened carefully to everything about the orcs. Terenus sympathizes with what happened to the Stormwind Kingdom. But the rest of the nobles and even the ministers of the whole of Dan Loren were not impressed. They have no intention of aiding the Stormwind Kingdom. Unable to force his orders around all the ministers, Terenus had to sponsor a batch of grain in his private name.

And in some shady corners of the capital of Dan Loren, even in the sewers. Some of the lower classes of the masses are doing some secret gatherings. A mysterious man in a black hooded robe is giving a speech on a high platform.

"Look at the nobles with fat brains. What they have done for the country can enjoy the privilege of rest. No, they didn't do anything. They are just a bunch of moths enjoying the glory of their ancestors. They, like us, are just ordinary people. Why can't we get the ones they enjoy. Why can't wealth be shared equally by all? Because they don't allow it, they control the army, they control the wealth, and even the food we depend on for survival. So we can never get that, unless, we choose to rebel. ”

"We don't have anything, what do we have to resist?"

"Yes, you will have strength, more power than those knights. There will be weapons, there will be food. As long as you believe in my lord, the great Lich King. ”

"Is there strength in believing in him? A young teenager asked. How to do it. ”

"It's easy, follow me."

“.........”

The boy involuntarily followed the other party and recited an obscure incantation. He only felt something strange from the void infused into his body. An unprecedented power appeared in the body. He only felt a suffocation in his heart, as if it was about to explode. subconsciously grabbed a homeless man beside him and directly threw the other party more than ten meters away.

With a bang, the homeless man was thrown against the wall. Unnatural twisting of the neck. He went limp on the spot, and his breathing began to become weak. This move frightened the crowd into a commotion, and they almost went their separate ways. But the hooded man didn't seem to care.

I saw him separate the crowd and slowly walked to the seriously injured homeless man. A strange incantation was recited. The originally dying homeless man actually opened his eyes. And quickly stood up.

"I'm alive." The homeless man looked at his hands in disbelief.

"The Great Lich King will not allow his followers to kill each other. Child, control your power. ”

The teenager, who was originally a little panicked, witnessed everything in front of him, but not only did he not feel afraid. Instead, a frenzy began to appear in his eyes. Not only him, but also the homeless man who came back from the dead, as well as the dozen or so lower-class people around him who witnessed all this, began to breathe rapidly.

“*、。‘ \/=7......’”

In the sewers, I remembered that strange spell again. This time, though, everyone was involved.

......

After a long time, the crowd dispersed. They will infiltrate the various lower classes and begin to propagate their faith. The boy who had been given the first power also left the sewers. He's going to bring all of his companions here, join the Cult of the Damned, and gain as much power as he does. In that case, there will be no one to bully them.

It was already afternoon. The sun is already a little westerly. But the sun was still a little harsh. The boy raised his hand to cover his face, and the sunlight was not strong, but it made him a little uncomfortable.

Not far away, a roadside vendor witnessed the departure of the group. The vendor took out a specially domesticated raven from under his stall. This is an underground intelligence organization, a tool used specifically to transmit information. He wrote down everything that had just happened on a slip of paper and placed it in a bamboo tube on the raven's body. The raven flew into the air and headed straight south.

At the same time, several ravens flew in other parts of the city. They also flew in the direction of the Stormwind Kingdom.

The underground world in Stormwind is undergoing a revolution at this time.

Joshua, sounds like a kind name. But everyone in the underworld knows that the name once represented a high-ranking thief. There is a certain fame in the entire Stormwind Kingdom, and even in the Eastern Kingdom. But a few years ago, this guy suddenly retired.

Of course, his retirement is not to be done without doing it. It's just that he no longer goes to the front line, but begins to train new people and form a stronghold for intelligence trading in the underworld. Earn a profit by selling all kinds of messages. For a few years, many people have forgotten that he used to be a ruthless character who killed people without blinking.

Joshua was remembered about half a year ago. His team seems to have taken on a strange task. They spread threatening rhetoric about orcs outside the city. It has caused a large number of lower-class people to panic. That's not the point. The point is that it wasn't long before the threat came. According to people familiar with the matter, in the forest north of the city, the elite of the empire was exhausted, and there were dwarves to help. But it doesn't seem to have been too good, and the threat of orcs remains.

That's when the whole underworld began to pay attention to Joshua. This guy apparently has some unknown channels of information. Many people began to try to reach out to Joshua and wanted to share his channels. Or simply threaten him and take possession of his channels. But Joshua's reaction was beyond anyone's imagination.

At first, Joshua didn't respond in the slightest. Whether it was cooperation or coercion, he didn't make the slightest move. Until one day, Joshua seemed to be ordered by a certain commander to start a sudden counterattack. A counterattack in the absolute sense, he killed all the coercs and subdued all the collaborators. Almost overnight, the entire underground intelligence market was unified.

According to survivors, Joshua was armed with two short black knives, and his whole body was like a ghost, able to move freely through the shadows. Also able to manipulate the fears of others. All of his opponents were easily slit throats by him. All collaborators, surrender to him. Now Joshua is a ghost assassin from the underworld.
