398. Undead natural disaster

Not all of the undead are in the army of the undead, and Olena knows that. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

Of course, he doesn't know the specifics of the army of the undead, he just knows human nature very well, and there are always those who are depressed and think that they are jealous of the elite will not hesitate to betray their own race, betray their own country, and throw themselves into the hostile camp.

This situation is all too common, especially for humans, who are already a fox-like race in the eyes of the High Elves, and it is not too easy to produce one or two traitors. So even if the person who comes is human, he will not believe it 100%, he still needs to judge, and needs more information to measure whether he should really believe the other party.

The messenger was soon brought in, dressed in armor that was clearly the standard of the army, and followed the soldier to Olena. He walked over, and he bowed down without saying a word.

"Honorable High Elf General, this is a letter from His Royal Highness the Prince of our country, please take a look."

The messenger had no extra nonsense, and after saluting, he took out a roll of parchment from his bosom and handed it to Olena.

Before Olena could take over, a High Elf priest standing behind Olena stepped forward and reached out to unleash a simple holy light spell on the parchment. The light fell, and nothing unusual appeared, proving that there was no magic or toxin on this secret letter, and then he nodded lightly to Olena.

Olena remained still, and a soldier standing on the other side of him stepped forward, took the parchment, opened it with his own hands, and made sure that there was nothing wrong with it, before handing it to Olena.

The envoy saw all these movements, but he did not make any movements, nor did he speak, and stood there quietly as if none of this had happened.

His Royal Highness had already instructed him before he came, no matter what he saw, no matter what happened, he should not see it. Don't speak, don't say anything, just watch quietly.

He did so, and the fact that he was sent to deliver the letter shows that he was capable of it.

Of course, he knew very well that the High Elves on the other side could not be too careful. After all, everyone saw what the Kingdom of Gilneth had done in the past, but now that the army of the undead is pressing, the Kingdom of Gilness, which has been isolated from the world for many years, suddenly sent reinforcements, so whoever will be cautious.

Olena, holding the parchment roll in his hand, quickly glanced up and down a few times, and after making sure that it was completely fine, he let out a long sigh.

He was now able to determine that the letter was fine, and the contents were fine. Although Gilneth has been closed off from the country for a long time, and although the High Elves and the Kingdom of Gilneth have not had any contact, the High Elves still have some understanding of the situation on the mainland.

They are very aware of the previous invasion of Gilneth by the undead scourge, although they don't know why the undead retreated, but they must have caused a lot of damage to the kingdom of Gilneth. Now that the undead have set their sights on the High Elves again, the High Elves are of course confident that they will not be defeated, but in the eyes of those who have experienced the invasion of the undead, the High Elves may not be able to withstand it.

If the High Elves are also defeated, then the power of the Undead Scourge will no longer be able to be suppressed, and it is understandable that the Kingdom of Gilneth has come to contact the High Elves out of self-preservation. They can't say anything like "cold lips and cold teeth", but they still understand the truth that "the enemy of the enemy is a friend".

Originally, the High Elves were not prepared for someone to come to support, but now that there are reinforcements, no matter how many, it is always good. No one would be stupid enough to hope that their own people and relatives would shed blood and sacrifice, although it is not nice to say this, but this is the case, compared to the blood of their own people, in exchange for everyone who wants to shed blood is someone else, human nature, understandable.

……

On the other side of the Blood Elves, the undead legion was ready to go.

In fact, they don't need any preparation, the undead army is too strong, and because of the particularity of its soldiers, what logistics, supplies, there is no need for the commander to worry about it at all, morale or something is nonsense, as long as there is a demand, the undead army can enter the battle state at any time.

Members of the Scourge are easy to recognize, smell, and identify, and don't have to make a lot of effort to join. Whether you love the Scourge or become an undead or are cursed by the Lich King, you are already a member of the Scourge from this moment on. No one has to do a lot here, whether it's an undead creature or a creature that has joined the undead scourge, and the status of the scourge depends on the different abilities of each person: if it's a guy who has no strength but no brains, then go and chop wood with the ghoul; If you are an intellectual type, you can either go to the psychic academy to be a teacher for those students of the cursed sect, or control a large wave of skeleton zombies and other younger brothers to charge into battle.

The first members of the Scourge Undead were humans who died in the plague of the undead, where people got sick and died, and then got back on their feet as zombies. This city-destroying technique proved to be less effective than the Lich King had hoped for, as he began ordering his wizards to desecrate the cemetery in order to create more members faster.

There are only two things that can separate the Scourge minions from the will of the Lich King - a halt of the Lich King's power in any way, or a good old-fashioned axe.

The Scourge Legion has nearly 200,000 troops on the Eastern Continent, most of whom are skeleton soldiers. The origin of the skeleton is very simple, for those creatures that were directly killed by the plague and killed by the Scourge legion, use necromancy to directly enslave their bones and bones, the formation of these things needs to rely on a necromancer to operate, the stronger the necromancer, the longer the skeleton can maintain mobility. Although the so-called necromancy is just a simple drive bone battle, but sometimes some "material" souls do not leave the world for some reason, then even the soul will be enslaved together, such skeletons are much stronger than ordinary natural skeletons, but the general skeleton army is soulless, and when the person who casts the spell behind is defeated, they become ordinary bones.

In addition to skeletons, the second most numerous are zombies, and the origin of zombies is similar to skeletons, so I won't go into detail here.

The above two undead creatures can only be regarded as cannon fodder, although there are many of them, but the individual strength is relatively poor, and they can be easily eliminated. It is obviously not obvious to expect to use these things to storm the city, so the truly powerful backbone of the Undead Scourge is mainly composed of several different troops.

Gargoyles, Cults of the Damned, Abomination, Lich, Banshee...... And so on the intermediate undead make up this terrifying force.

Gargoyles are the product of taking beasts, corrupting them and strengthening them with spells. Like humans, the choice of beasts is harsh, first of all, the beast must have a bloodthirsty and cruel nature, and at the same time, it must be strong enough to withstand the harsh environment and the corrosive effects of the plague. As a result, the vampire bats of the Plaguelands caught the eye of the Scourge alchemists: they were fast, aggressive and aggressive, and adaptable, making them ideal experiments. The Scourge captures a large number of vampire bats and makes pacts with them, and some of them are eventually transformed into gargoyles, the scourge of the sky. There are also a small number of gargoyles that are constructs, created by mages and lichs of the Cursed Sect, and these gargoyles are more powerful, but they are scarce in production and rarely seen on the battlefield.

Most of the cursed sects are insane or socially hateful humans, such as lovelorns, unrelated and unjustified, those who failed the college entrance examination, beggars, etc., and of course, there are also people who are born to worship Naozu and love natural disasters, such as Kel'thugad and so on. Dressed in black and disguised in their faces, they are mainly responsible for secretly recruiting members in human cities, as well as planting plagues in food and granaries. These people are not strong, but they are living creatures, and when dealing with the human kingdom, these guys can easily blend into the cities that the undead want to capture, and they can always cause a lot of trouble for the defending side.

Abomination, also known as a stitching monster, is made by sewing together pieces of flesh from east to west, and abomination without mind and soul is usually thrown at the enemy's densest places as a "flesh bomb" for meat grinders, relying on weight and deterrence to strike at enemy troops; Sapient Abominations are often used as secret weapons, and some of the stronger Abominations have been transformed into half-machine, half-living mutations, into the terrifying "Machine Abominations". The war machines carried by the "Machine Abomination" include cartridges capable of spewing corrosive liquids and plague broth and high-pressure gas canisters filled with poison gas. The Scourge Alchemist also filled these tonnage monsters with hundreds or thousands of plague-infected maggots. In the heat of battle, Abomination can spew deadly larvae at enemy troops, and even when Abomination is about to be killed, they can still activate their self-detonation devices to get these creepy reptiles into every corner. In short, Abomination is definitely the most feared of the undead army.

As for the Lich and Banshee, both of them were basically mages during their lifetimes. The biggest difference between the two is that the former has a physical carrier such as bones, while the banshee is a pure spirit body. The process of creating a lich is complicated, and the soul itself must also possess strong magical powers, as well as a strong source of foreign magic and high-quality bones and ashes that can be used. Therefore, lichs are not for everyone, they are usually powerful mages in their lifetimes, such as Kel'thugad. Some of Dalaran's best human mages will also give up their appearance in order to gain an immortal body and infinite power, and voluntarily become a lich in a skirt.

Banshees are spirits controlled by natural disasters, some of which are voluntary. Banshees are usually wizards in their lifetimes, which also provides the basis for their necromancy, and it has to be admitted that banshees still retain some of the characteristics of their spells, such as the slow of the attack class is replaced by a more vicious curse, and the stealth of the defense class is transformed into an anti-magic shell, as if when humans become immortal, they have more terrifying and effective spells. Of course, it cannot be ruled out that non-legal creatures can transform into banshees, but these banshees are significantly less destructive than the former, and they act more as sentry and scouts.

These are the backbone of the army of the undead, and there are quite a few of them, and their strength is not weak, enough to affect most of the situation on the battlefield.

And what can really play a decisive role has to be those small number of high-level troops.

Death Knights, Frost Dragons, Caveman Demons...... Even among the undead legions, it is a powerful combat force rarely seen, and it is the real sharp knife of the undead legion. They are rarely seen in ordinary battles, but when the defenses of a certain place are extremely stubborn, they will go out to completely destroy the opponent's defenses and break the enemy's will.

Let's start with the Death Knight, the Death Knight is a class, not just Arthas. It can only be said that Arthas is one of the most famous death knights. In fact, the Death Knights had already appeared in the Second Orc War, initially as part of Gul'dan's ace army, and after the orc expeditionary force was defeated, they fled back to Draenor and were defeated by the orc shaman Naozu. Death Knights are mostly orc warlocks who are proficient in dark magic, riding nightmare warhorses, demonic mounts enslaved and summoned by themselves. The eyes and iron hooves of these warhorses burned with the flames of vengeance, exuding a fascinating aura of fear.

Therefore, the Death Knights created by Naozu are actually derived from the Nightmare Knights of the Orc Shadowmoon Clan, and there are still many similarities between them to this day, such as the eyes and limbs of their warhorses spewing flames of hatred; The riders all have the characteristics of a warlock and so on.

The Death Knights are the true commanders of the Scourge, and they have more military and political power than the Lich, who manages trivial matters such as the spread of plagues and reconnaissance. At the same time, they are also the soul pillars that support the entire Scourge Legion, and of course, they have always been the core, both in life and after death.

The cave-dwelling demons, originally belonging to the humanoid spider race Ezdr-Nirab, are insects as old as trolls, and they are also enemies of all other races, especially Night Elves and Trolls, and even nearly wiped out the Scourge that had just established itself in Northrend. Once they were killed and became a member of the Scourge, they became the enemies of almost all the rooms. They are able to burrow into the ground and appear in the rear of the enemy. The carapace is so hard that it's almost invulnerable, and its magical defenses are very strong. And most importantly, they are extremely large, and when they charge, they are almost all heavy tanks.

Imagine that once the battle starts, these guys run directly behind the enemy from the ground, and then charge against the attack, with the endless army of the undead, and the death knights who are equally good at attacking, under the combination of inside and outside, almost no legion in the field dares to say that they can defeat the undead army, not even the demons.

Coupled with the frost dragon overhead, the two-line attack of land and air, destroying the city, is simply effortless, coupled with the special *** of the undead, even if there is no betrayal of Darkan, it is even more difficult for the High Elves to defeat the undead army, the appearance of Darkan is just to make this defeat more rapid, so that the pace of the undead invasion is smoother, in essence, with him or not, the High Elves are unlikely to be able to block the invasion of the undead.
