Chapter 70: Winresa Windranger
Winresa and Amira are back!
When Xu Mo was training a new batch of selected elven advance team members, he saw a smiling dwarf girl outside the training ground.
"Amira!" Xu Mo walked out of the training ground in surprise, "You...... It seems to have lost weight! ”
"Like me, you're going to spend more than a dozen hours a day on the back of a griffon. You have to fight continuously, and you don't even have time to eat, and you'll lose weight too! Amira pursed her lips, Gu Ying touched her cheek with self-pity and said, "Don't talk about this, you go and see Wen Lesa, she is injured!" ”
"Oh?" Xu Mo was startled and hurriedly followed Amira.
The two entered a military tent at the back of the chapel, and Xu Mo was taken aback when he saw Wen Leisha, "How did she become like this?" ”
The current appearance of the Elven Ranger would be surprised if any of his previous companions saw it. I saw Wen Lisha lying unconscious on a marching bed, and the originally snow-white and bright elf chief found it in the gray and dark, sticking to his forehead like hay. His cheeks and cheeks were extremely thin, his eyes were sunken, his limbs and body were covered in bones, and his whole body was transformed into a skeleton.
"She......" Amira turned her head in discomfort, choked and speechless.
After the explanations of several dwarven warriors next to him, Xu Mo knew about Wen Leisha's experience during this time. Her second sister, Sylvanas, died, and the original home was in ruins, and the elven ranger, who was not in a deep life, could not stand the blow and had mental problems.
The rescue operation in the elven village is very compact and the combat intensity is very high. With the support of hatred, Wen Leisha was extremely excited, and her physical exertion was huge, but she lost her appetite, couldn't eat and drink, and gradually became disfigured. It was at this time that she met Sylvanas, who she thought was dead.
The second of the three Windranger sisters, after the epic hero's eldest sister Aurelia, Sylvanas, the most powerful ranger general in Quel'Salas, has become an undead creature - the Undead Banshee. Unable to accept this harsh reality, Winetha was shot in the shoulder by Sylvanas with an arrow in the wood, knocking her off the griffin's back.
This arrow was like the last straw that broke the camel's back, completely crushing the spirit of the elven ranger. Wen Leisha gave up on herself and used her fighting spirit to drive away the plague virus carried by the arrow wound, causing her to fall into a coma for a long time. Amira and the other dwarven knights had no choice but to take her back and send her to the Chapel of Light's Wish.
After listening to the whole story, Xu Mo took a few steps forward with a calm face, gently lifted the sackcloth on Wen Leisha's body, and suddenly the arrow wound on the elf ranger's shoulder came into his eyes. I saw that there was a purple-black arrow hole with pus and blood flowing on Wen Leisha's shoulder, and the arrow inside had been eliminated by Amira and the others. In this purple-black arrow hole, there are strange green filaments, like spider webs clinging to the blood meridians on the shoulder.
These green filaments seem to have a life force of their own, and they gently erect from time to time on the blood meridians. With each of its erections, Wen Leisa's pale face twitched slightly, and fine sweat stains slowly oozed from her forehead.
"This is the plague virus?" Xu Mo frowned slightly and turned his head to look at Amira.
"Well, the chaplain of the chapel could have used the Holy Light to drive away the virus, but there will always be a subtle residue in the body. If Wen Leisha can't wake up on her own and expel it with her fighting spirit, the injury will only get worse and worse, and it will be ...... Cole, what are you doing? Amira was only halfway through speaking, when she was surprised to see a cloud of black flame rising in Xu Mo's hand.
Xu Mo expressionlessly pressed the palm wrapped in Hei Yan on the elf's shoulder, closed his eyes and carefully controlled the Titan Black Yan. Black Flame licked ~ Wen Leisha's flesh like a greedy baby, and at the same time quickly evaporated and disintegrated the plague virus. The air inside the tent was suddenly filled with a faint smell of meat.
"Ahh The unconscious elf felt great pain, and his bony body jumped up from the bed, let out a slight mutter, and slowly opened his eyes, staring blankly at everything in front of him.
"Winnessa, you're awake!" Amira cried out in surprise, and jumped to the bed, holding the elf.
Winnesa turned her head awkwardly, her unfocused gaze swept over the faces of everyone in the room, as if she had failed to recognize her many companions.
Wen Leisha's haggard demeanor made the hard-hearted Xu Mo feel sour, and then the stalker straightened his face, "Smack!" With a thud, a slap slapped the elf's face.
"Don't forget that you're the sister of the epic hero Aurelia, that your people are still alive and well, and that Sylvanas's soul is still controlled and enslaved by the Lich King! If you really don't want to live anymore, I can send you to Aurelia right now. When you meet that epic hero, you can snuggle up in her arms like a baby and weep bitterly and tell her that you don't deserve to be her sister. ”
Hearing the names of Aurelia and Sylvanas, Winresa's face moved slightly. Xu Mo's words pierced into the elf's heart like a sharp cone, and her pupils slowly focused on Xu Mo's face, revealing a poignant smile.
"Cole! Woo woo woo~~~" Wen Leisha threw herself into Xu Mo's arms and hugged him tightly, and a dull cry came into everyone's ears intermittently.
The people in the military tent quietly retreated, knowing that the elves didn't need so many people around now.
"Whew!" The dwarf girl exhaled with relief, but when she looked at her side, she was startled, "Luo Ning, aren't you in Dalaran, when did you come back?" ”
"Just now!" The nerdy mage smiled bitterly.
Luo Ning had just flown from Dalaran to the Chapel of the Holy Light's Wish, and when he heard that Wen Leisha was in a hurry, he hurried over to take a look, but he didn't expect to see the elven ranger pounce into Xu Mo's arms at a glance. Although the mage understood that the elves just needed a thick shoulder to vent the pent-up pain in their hearts, for some reason, there was a bitterness and confusion in their hearts.
Wen Leisha cried bitterly for a long time, and finally got tired of crying, and curled up in Xu Mo's arms and fell asleep. The stalker looked at the elf in his arms, even in his sleep, his shoulders twitched from time to time, his eyebrows frowned, and he couldn't help but sigh secretly, and did not choose to leave immediately.
In her sleep, Wen Leisa seemed to feel like she was back in her childhood, on the garden lawn of Silvermoon City, the second sister Sylvanas laughed and spread her arms in front of her, luring her to stagger, while the eldest sister smiled in the distance, watching the two of them play.
However, soon a fire fell from the sky, and Silvermoon City slowly burned and collapsed in the sea of fire. The eldest sister, Aurelia, and the second sister, Sylvanas, smiled and pushed her away from the fire, waving goodbye to her from afar. No matter how hard Winnesa tried to run, she couldn't seem to get close to the fire or touch them, and could only watch feebly as her two sisters slowly turned to ashes in the fire and dissipated into the wind.
"Aurelia, Sylvanas!" Winnesa snapped her eyes open and exclaimed.
"Wen Leisha, Wen Leisha!" Xu Mo held the elf's shoulders and called softly.
Wen Leisha's eyes slowly regained clarity, and she noticed Xu Mo, who was still holding herself. Looking at the wet tears and snot on the stalker's chest, the elf ranger's pale face couldn't help but flush up, and he straightened up from Xu Mo's arms, lowered his head and whispered, "I'm sorry!" ”
"It's okay! The plague virus in the wound has been expelled by me, and the next thing is up to you! Xu Mo smiled and picked up the gruel on the wooden bench next to him, "In addition, eat these!" ”
"Hmm!" Wen Leisa answered softly, and reached out to take the bowl with one hand, but the other hand could not hold the spoon steadily because of the shoulder injury.
"Forget it, I'll feed you!" Xu Mo smiled bitterly, took the bowl and spoon, and fed it to the elf one bite at a time.
Now there were only the two of them in the tent, and the elf beauty had no way to oppose it, so she had to blush and let Xu Mo feed her. Suddenly, a strange feeling arose in the hearts of the two of them, and the tent was full of ambiguous atmosphere.
After feeding the gruel, Xu Mo was embarrassed to be cheeky, stayed in Wen Lesa's tent again, and left the tent as if he had fled, and went to find Amira to learn about the battle situation in Quel'Thalas.
Entering Amira's tent, Xu Mo found that there were already many people here, including the leader of the chapel, Baron Tyrosus, and the commanders of several dwarven griffin knights. To the surprise of the Stalker, Ronin actually returned to the Chapel of Light's Wish.
After a short cold talk, Luo Ning frustrated Xu Mo about Dalaran's condition, which made him fall into deep thought. However, compared to the battle report conveyed by Amira to everyone, the unfavorable news from Dalaran was a drizzle.
The reason why Amira returned to the chapel was not just to send Winlessa back, but because there was a major situation at the border of Quel'Salas. She returned this time, bringing back urgent calls for help from the Scarlet Crusaders and Captain Blanton.
It all started when General Abidis led the 3,000 Scarlet Crusaders of the Valley of the Hearth to the front line of Stratholme. After General Abydis arrived at the Stratholme line, he was faced with two choices.
One option is to clear out the remnants of Stratholme's undead and reclaim Stratholme once and for all. In fact, at that time, the Scourge Legion led by Arthas was still in Silvermoon City, Stratholme did not have a large number of Scourge undead, and even Baron Rivendell died in the battle with Xu Mo and others, and it was realistic to recover Stratholme.
The reconquest of Stratholme was not very important militarily, but it was significant to the Scarlet Crusaders. Because their most beloved leader was once the banner of the kingdom of Lordaeron against the Scourge Legion, and it was here that the High Lord of the Ashbringers, Mograini, died at the hands of traitors.
Another option was to follow Xu Mo's battle plan first, ignore Stratholme, and go around to its side to guard Stratholme's rear mountain road. Together with the Silver Northern Expeditionary Army, led by Captain Blanton of Zumashal, like the two horns of a bull, blockade the Quel'Salas Border Mountains, one left and one right. Intercept the Scourge in Quel'Thalas and block Arthas' passage back south to the Plaguelands.
Under the persuasion of Bridget and Tyran Fordin, General Abydis made the right choice, giving up the temptation to subdue Stratholme and stationing the 3,000 Scarlet Crusaders in the mountain passes behind Stratholme.
However, things soon changed after the arrival of the Scarlet Crusaders of the Hand of Tyr!
