Chapter 419: Bloody Battle in the Valley of the Hearth (Part I)

Uther nodded, but sighed: "I don't have this right, but the place we pass by still needs to be cleaned up." Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info I'll report back to King Terenus for the rest. However, the current situation is still under control, as long as we catch up with the plague grain and grass, we can control their spread. ”

However, Uther's words were not believed by the cute girl team, and Ye Qianbi said to Uther: "I'm afraid we don't have time anymore, I killed a member of the Cursed Sect a few days ago, and I got a message before he died." That is, this grain and grass will eventually be transported to Stasom, and if the population of that city is infected, it will be a real disaster. ”

"Kid, you're right. So we had to hurry up and head to the Valley of the Hearths right away. Uther nodded, and several rangers turned on the power of the beast. They allow themselves to be guarded by beasts for a short period of time, increasing the movement speed of their entire army. Although it was physically demanding, it was worth it in Uther's eyes. Of course, as they approached the Valley of the Hearth, the enemies became even more frantic.

Uther has a lot of troops, so even if there are undead in the way, it is basically a matter of minutes under the slaughter of so many troops. However, the morale of the army is very low, because there are many soldiers in places like Andorhar and Hearthvale, and some of them have seen their relatives turn into ghouls in the spirits of the dead, or have found their relatives' clothes and jewelry on the skeletons. Uther's psychology is also getting heavier and heavier, and he even grabbed two of them to do research himself.

However, when Uther used the Holy Light to study the death of the tenth undead, he still sighed heavily: "Our current magic doesn't seem to be able to dispel the curse on them, and when our priest uses dispersal on those dead skeletons, he can actually shatter some of the undead who turned into skeletons to pieces. I reckon they might have been summoned from the graveyard, otherwise they wouldn't have been harmed by the priest's dispersal. However, this power seems to be irreversible, and the Light is powerful for them. Of course, this is also good news, at least there are many ways to deal with them. However, their numbers are indeed terrifying, and there are almost more than 5,000 undead creatures that died in our hands along the way. There are even some more powerful ones, a bit like Death Knights..."Uther suddenly fell into deep thought, when he fought the orcs back then, Gul'dan made a Death Knight that made them suffer a lot.

"Yes, sir. The stronger you are when you are alive, the stronger you are when you are transformed. Especially after the death of the paladin, the transformed Death Knight is even more powerful than the original. It was a premeditated invasion, just like the orcs back then. Lord Uther, the morale of the soldiers is getting lower and lower now, and we must find a way. Hu Li said behind Uther, but Hu Li sighed a little in her heart, she and Shen Huili were really late. If he had come a month earlier, he would have knocked out the signs of the Cursed Sect long ago. Of course, now it can only follow the original plot. After all, the biggest slaughter race is about to begin.

The Valley of the Hearth is now besieged by nearly 10,000 undead, and Alsace, Gianna, and all the armies in the Valley of the Hearth, together with barely a thousand. They had been guarding the gates of the Valley of the Hearth for a few days now, and now they were full of corpses. They choked on the stench of rotting corpses at the door, and each had a thick layer of linen tied to their faces. "Damn! We've been here for four days now, and the undead aren't in a hurry to attack, obviously trying to hold us back. Their grain and grass are now in Stratholme, what to do! The loss of our troops was too great, and when the infected human became an undead at the beginning, the local combat power was weakened a lot. Now they simply have no way to break through the encirclement of the undead, let alone intercept the grain convoy. Arthas muttered to himself, but could not do anything about what was in front of him.

Moreover, there were suddenly a lot more lichs in the army of the undead, and it turned out that the Hercula that Ye Clini met in Darsong had reappeared, and the strength was much stronger than the last time. Countless previously buried corpses have been resurrected by the Lich, who have formed a sea of nearly a thousand skeletons, desperately besieging the city in the last few hours. Although the Valley of the Hearth has a fully fortified fortress, the undead below are almost filling the walls. Arthas used up almost all of the fortress's defenses, but was almost lost a few times due to its small numbers. Arthas hadn't rested for a day, because if it hadn't been for his persistence with the power of the Light, the fortress would have been overwhelmed by the undead.

"Hold on! Uther is coming to our rescue! Hold this fortress in the name of the Light and protect our people! Arthas waved his hand to knock the undead who had climbed onto the walls away, but the long battle made Arthas begin to breathe. He wiped the sweat from his face, then took the well water from one of his servants and drank it bitterly.

Gavin Rader, who was on the other side of the wall, looked at Arthas and nodded silently, believing that this was a true knight. However, he is also very worried about the current situation: "Looking at the situation, Fireplace Valley is estimated to be unbearable. We will find the few remaining paladins on our side and escort the children of Arthas and Fortin, and the rest can only be saved as much as possible. What the hell are ghouls and lichs crazy about, if it weren't for the fact that Hearthvale is surrounded by mountains on three sides, and there is only one wall to defend, I'm afraid it would have been broken by now. Gavin Rad was thinking silently, but it was clear that the situation was very unoptimistic.

"Oh no! The walls are falling! "A soldier rolled down a section of the wall. In the distance there were four or five grotesque catapults, which dropped not only stones, but dead corpses. The corpses were all cursed and infected, and if they were dumped in the city, there was a high chance that they would infect some civilians passing by, and cause the innocent to die quickly. There are many mountains near the Hearthland Valley, so there are naturally a lot of stones. Under the control of the lich, the catapults struck a blow at a weak section of the wall, which actually collapsed.

Arthas immediately ran over, and by this time there were already stitchers rushing in as a vanguard, and the countless ghouls behind had already begun to advance into the city. "Brothers! Form a battle formation! At Arthas's shouting, more than fifty soldiers ran, merging their shields to form a wall of shields and pushing the ghouls desperately towards the gap. And stabbing in the gaps of the shield, the tacit understanding of the human soldier is the best of all races. (To be continued.) )
