The wolf-like demon forces met them just west of the city of Sulamah. Ever since Crassus's strategy succeeded, the elven army had been advancing, but at this point, they stopped in the face of the demonic defenses, and the two sides entered a stalemate phase: I can't attack it, and you can't fight it.

The warriors of the Burning Legion are ruthless in their battles, but there is one advantage of the Night Elves: they are much more familiar with the land than demons. The area around Sulama City is full of rolling mountains, several rivers, and a large forest that used to cover it, but now it is either burned by fire or torn by sharp claws.

The stumps of many dead trees and destroyed buildings dot the ground, which can be used not only as road signs, but also as shelter.

At this moment, both sides are using various methods to try to break through the situation of the war, so various countermeasures are also essential

To this end, Ravencrest sent a number of reconnaissance teams to investigate the distribution of the Demon Front. Brooks, Ronin, and Shadowsong and his team are one of them.

Ronin and Broxs were self-defeating, confident that they knew the Burning Legion's approach better than anyone else. However, Rafincrest also asked them to make sure that they would come back at the allotted time and not be late, just like the rest of the scouting team. Otherwise, once he hears the reconnaissance reports of the others and sees the opportunity to immediately attack a certain side of the enemy formation, he cannot guarantee their safety.

Night fell, but the team didn't slow down. The darkness has no negative effect on the team members, but rather benefits their reconnaissance operations. A thick layer of green mist enveloped everything around them, and it was wet and emitted a foul smell, as if wherever the Burning Legion went, fog would rise. And there is danger hidden in this thick fog, as it allows demons to sneak up only a few yards away without being detected.

The twelve members of the squad were slowly navigating a barren landscape. The trees around them were withered and blackened, casting ghostly shadows in the fog. They squinted hard, but they couldn't see through the fog.

Their goal was Sulama City, the closest Night Elf city to Asarin, and Raffencrest believed that the demonic situation here had to be reported first

Despite the fog, they may still be lucky. Just a short distance from the city of Sulama, the reconnaissance team passed through a former residential area. From time to time, the remains of some treehouses can be seen piled up diagonally, and the entire structure seems to have been uprooted and then chopped to pieces. The members of the team are well aware that the people who live here have probably suffered the same fate.

At least the people of this squad are still alive now

Garrod. Shadow Song was the leader of the team, and the former captain of the Guardian of Sulama City was very familiar with the environment, but even so, the destruction caused by the demons made it difficult for him to distinguish between them

Unrecognizable cities and streets, and the corpses strewn across the streets, piles of demonic corpses scattered on the ground, the Burning Legion had no habit of collecting the corpses of their own fallen soldiers, and to be exact, these corpses were the best food when the Hellbeasts were hungry

Of course, there are also the corpses of other creatures. The neighborhood was littered with the remains of the Night Elves - some soldiers who had retreated with them, others unlucky civilians who had moved more slowly. No one survived the whole body: arms, legs, and even heads were cut off. Some appear to have been dismembered after death.

"It's too barbaric" Garrod's anguish overflowed, the Shadow Song family had lived in Sulama City for generations, and the pain of seeing their hometown destroyed was indescribable

As they advanced, the outline of the city of Sulama began to appear in their field of vision, the crumbling walls towering eeriely in the thick fog, and the Burning Legion did not have time to completely destroy them, but it only seemed even more terrifying

"O moon goddess...... one of the soldiers whispered. They walked slowly into the city walls, where there were no enemies, no demons, and there was silence

The silence is terrifying

They entered the city through the collapsed gates. A deathly silence surrounded them, and in such a secluded place, even the sound of breathing became a cacophony of noise.

After walking a few steps, Luo Ning noticed that something was wrong: "Don't go too far when you go to scouting." There's a magic in the mist. I don't think we have to go through all the places, Captain of the Guard. ”

Garrod nodded in agreement, and as they went deeper, finally, they saw the corpses, all kinds of strange wounds on the corpses, but what was surprising was that it had been almost half a month since the fall of Sulama City, but these corpses showed no signs of decay, and there were not even scavengers to eat these corpses

Unlike in the suburbs, the destruction in the city was very severe, and the ruins of the city obscured the roads that had once been, and although he was reluctant, in order to speed up the time, Garrod ordered a separate search

"Search the ruins and meet us as soon as possible." He ordered six of them. The two teams galloped away, and he shouted behind him: "There must be three people together!" ”

Watching the six Nightblade Leopard Cavalry disappear from view, Blox, as if he had discovered something, raised his head and sniffed the air, the further he walked inside, the more he could ask about a rancid smell

There's a fork in the road ahead where we can play with them" Garrod rode through the ruins on a Nightblade leopard, who had to climb up and down through the rubble, and in front of him there were three large tree houses that had been overturned to the ground, apparently collapsing in the middle of the road.

But these big leopards are much better than horses, and the ruins only make their walking a little troublesome, but they do not hinder them in the slightest

On the ruins they found the corpse of a hellbeast, which had been hit with a spear by an elven warrior and then crushed by a collapsed house

Finally, the six of them came to the flat ground. Garrod pointed ahead and said, "I remember that there is a large road not far beyond the field of vision, and we should be able to meet the other six people there, Master Ronin. ”

"That's great," Ronin wanted to use his divination gem to probe, but the mist here made the treasure lose its effect

But by the time they got to the fork in the road, there were already people waiting for them

"Don't come to harm, Luo Ning" was dressed in black armor, so that Luo Ning could only see the outline of the person, but the way he spoke and the tone of his voice made Luo Ning understand who it was

"Autumn dust?! How did you end up here?! You're not" Luo Ning was about to say something, but was interrupted by Qiu Chen's wave

"My business has been completed, don't worry, even if Deathwing is here now, I don't have to worry too much" The power of the four spirits has been seen by Qiu Chen, and his sincerity is not weak, "You'll know when we go back, but--why are you here?" ”

Of course, he knew why Ronin was here, but he still had to ask, otherwise, the prophet of Azeroth could count it with one hand

Ronin told Qiu Chen about their coming to investigate, and before he could finish speaking, on the left side of Brooks, three soldiers rode over on the Nightblade Leopard

"Aha!" Garrod looked relieved, "A team is back!" ”

Three knights ran from the orc's left. They were very happy to see their companions again, and even the panther under the crotch was very agile and excited.

"What did you find?" Shadow Song asked the newcomer.

"Nothing, chief." The highest-ranking soldier replied, "Just more ruins, more corpses." There were our people and demons among the corpses, and the number was about the same. ”

After listening to the report, Garrod sighed, then looked in the opposite direction and said, "The others should be there at any time." ”

However, after a long time, the three soldiers still did not appear. They became nervous, and this gloomy mood also affected several of the panthers, who hissed incessantly and slapped the ground with the soles of their feet. The clock ticked by.

"Don't wait, let's go find them" The death war horse under Qiuchen's crotch stepped on his hooves, he originally wanted to go directly to kill the Dreaddemon King, but the ruins here made him decisively lost, and he was not very familiar with Sulama City, let alone after it became a ruin

Ronin wanted to say something against it, his idea was to wait - and then retreat, but as soon as he tried to speak, he closed it, and no one else noticed his movements, only Block on the side looked at him strangely

Because Qiuchen said something to him just now
