At the same time as Medivan visits Kane, the Scourge invasion has begun.

As in the original history, when Antonidas heard about the plague in the kingdom of Lordaeron, he found it a little hard to believe.

The humans of Azeroth have passed the backward period of living in mud huts and living in the same room with pigs and sheep, and their dwellings have the characteristics of the European and American villages in the late 19th century.

Still take the house as an example, the stone foundation, wooden walls, large wooden beams and columns, tile roofs, basically like this, a little better, there is a wooden floor, and a two-story building is available.

After the emergence of cement, cement floors quickly entered thousands of households.

Some large towns, newly built houses, have begun to use concrete frames, plus prefabricated floor slabs. This is not only sturdy, but also avoids problems such as moving upstairs in the past, dust falling downstairs or squeaking.

The living environment of the whole people is improving, and the sanitary situation is obviously better, why is there a plague?

Especially on the King's Road, this is not a deserted village, but a popular frontline, with the convenience of the King's Road, they are always the latest to see new things, and always play the first to follow the trend.

So when Gianna suspected that the plague's claims might not be true, Antonidas let him go.

Gianna doesn't need to summon the water element to fight against the cute ogre who was killed halfway this time, and now in the Northland, let alone an ogre, he can't even find a kobold.

Either he was overturned by the paladins who traveled to the Knights of the Holy Sword in the early years, or he was captured by the knights of the Silver Hand Knights to exchange for money.

Today, most of these villains of all races who have done business without capital have been trafficked to Kalimdor by Kane, the largest human trafficker today, to sell coolies in the second phase of the Orgrimmar project of the new tribe.

Gianna successfully rendezvoused with Arthas, and after that, the team headed towards the incident point, the secluded farm east of Andhar.

Lonely Farm is a natural village formed by freelance farmers. To the east is the Tarong Lake, which has a beautiful environment. But now, it's dead.

Gianna sensed the remnants of magical power, and Arthas, as a paladin, felt a gloomy power that was extremely opposed to the power of the Light.

"It's the power of darkness!"

"And evil. Gianna said as she pointed to the doorway of a house by the side of the road, where there was dried blood and a poisonous green glow that glowed like hoarfrost in the moonlight.

"Take precautions, evil things can appear at any time!" Arthas said to open the king's blessing, and everyone around him benefited.

In addition, as a paladin of the Silver Hand, and a hero-level character, he has an aura and focuses on the aura. Increases the protection of people in the same faction in the area.

Gianna also has a brilliant aura that can speed up mana regeneration, and for spellcasters, this aura has a high use value.

The entourage was alerted by Ethan to be ready for war at any time.

After that, they cautiously conducted a thorough search of the Silent Farm, but found neither living nor monsters.

Where have all the people gone?

Seeing that it was getting late, Alsace decided to visit Glenn Farm in the northeast. It's closer to the King's Road, and if there are no special conditions, it's there to rest in the evening.

It's really nothing, not only is there no situation, but there is no one yet.

I can't see anyone alive, I can't see a corpse when I die, what the hell is this? And it's certainly not a relocation, the belongings of life are all in the room!

Gianna said: "The situation is much more serious than expected, the two villages are not small, and the total number of people is not a thousand, and these people will be very conspicuous wherever they go." ”

Arthas nodded: "Let's go to Andorhar, and tomorrow morning, ask the griffin knight to detect it from the sky." ”

Gianna answered: "I have to notify other areas to be on guard overnight, this thing is too strange." ”

Arthas wanted to say that it was a big fuss, you must know that the security in the Northland is surprisingly good now, there are no robbers in sight, and there are no monsters in sight.

Speaking of this, we have to mention Garin Tolbairn of the Kingdom of Falken, who can be said to have contributed greatly.

The prince was probably addicted to running a concentration camp, and spent a lot of money to buy all kinds of intelligent creatures, and I heard that they were all sent to the mines to work as coolies.

When I think of Garin, I naturally think of what he has done in Lordaeron.

Arthas felt that he was too immature compared to Kane and lacked a proven track record to prove himself.

"This time, maybe it's an opportunity. ”

Thinking of this, he did not rush to dismiss Gianna's proposal, and said, "Let's go to Andorhar first, where a squadron of Silver Hand Knights is stationed, and I hope that their wisdom and strength can help."

Gianna nodded, feeling that Arthas was much calmer than before.

She likes the sunshine and enthusiasm of Alsace, but as a prince, he was a little impetuous in the past, and this time I saw him, and I felt that he had improved a lot. This satisfied her, and she felt that Arthas would become a worthy king if she continued to develop like this.

The group rode on horseback, and by the time they arrived in Andohar, it was already the top of the moon.

Azeroth has two moons, the older one is called White Lady (human), Elune (Night Elf), Musha (troll, minotaur), and the smaller one is called Blue Child. Now it's Elune, and the brightness is still very good.

To Arthas's relief, the defenders of Andorjar were vigilant enough that they were far away when someone shouted and a bright light shone through.

The spotlight, which is an invention of Kane, is the principle of reflecting the light, even ordinary torches can be used as a light source, but through the spotlight can shine far away, which is deeply loved by the general public.

In addition, the Night Watch system of the Silver Hand was also learned from the Templar Order, and I heard that it was also invented by Prince Garin. And at a time like this, when encountering a competent guard force, Arthas and his party feel good.

Andohar is very important, it is a food distribution station, where the food of the entire Tirisfa region will be gathered, and in the past, even the grain from the Talon region would be transported from the Icewind Dale to Stormgard, and then to Kurtilas, Danmoro, and even the Kingdom of Stormwind.

However, this year, with the port of Fao, the grain in the Talon area will probably not come, and the rest will still be concentrated here, because with the major construction of the first line of Icewind Valley, Stannbrad, and Talen Mir, the land route is much easier, and it is also safe, and the grain is transported to Nanhai Town to the sea, which is no more laborious than taking the port of Fao.

Alsace also heard that Kane was interested in repairing the midstream south of the Dano Dam so that it could carry large river vessels. In that case, a river dock could be built at the southern end of Icewind Dale, and ships could go down the river into the South China Sea, multiplying capacity.

It's cool to go downstream, but how do you solve the problem of returning home?

Steam-powered ironclads, Alsace also knows. It is said that he has a lot of strength, and there is a special measurement word, called 'horsepower', but he has not seen it with his own eyes, so he will not express his position.

Arthas and his party entered Andorhar and found that everything was fine.

Someone prepared a meal for them who were hungry, and they took the opportunity to take a hot bath, and today was tiring enough, and it was the end of August, and the weather was very hot, and at the end of the day, they were stinking.

Don't covet the refreshment of a cold shower, but take a hot bath to relieve the heat.

The bath shampoo is a must, it is clean and exceptionally refreshing, Alsace likes the scent of calming flowers, light and long-lasting, and refreshing.

Then he found out that these were also invented by Prince Garin, or rather, at least under Prince Garin's improvement and strong advocacy, they were widely used, such as showers.

There is a Falcon brand everywhere in life, and some people are used to saying that there is Garin everywhere in life.

There are many trees in the Dalong area, and the night breeze has a slight coolness, and the light breeze blows, which is very pleasant.

Just had dinner with Gianna on the terrace. The mood is good and the meals are delicious.

Arthas asked, "What do you think of Prince Torbain?"

"He's a weirdo. Gianna said and smiled: "He is very good with my stubborn father. ”

This amused Arthas as well.

Indeed, apart from his appearance and age, Garin did not look like a young man at all, and people talked about him almost as much as they talked about Antonidas, Uther, and the like, all of whom were the kind of swordsmen who became famous. Nothing is enough to surprise people.

Gianna asked Arthas, "What about you? What do you think of him?"

"A lot of times it doesn't feel like you're living in one world. That sense of distance was stronger than facing my father and Uther. But I must admit that he was an outstanding genius whose achievements have left his peers, even the older generation, far behind, including the pursuit of beautiful women, which I admire. ”

As a celebrity, Kane's most talked about gossip consciousness is the process of his acquaintance with Onexia. Various versions, some of which guess the truth.

"Just admiration, no envy. Gianna asked casually.

"I feel like I need to love my wife with all my heart and soul in order to live up to her love for me. "Alsace took his chances......

The sweet words were touching, and the two rolled the sheets on this night.

The next step is to stage the ruthlessness of the uprooting.

In the second half of the night, the two were awakened by the noise, followed by the guards hurriedly outside the door to report that the monster appeared inside.

Arthas has been studying in the more and more formal Knights of the Silver Hand in the past few years, and he has also gained a lot, and while getting dressed, he gave an order: "Guard the gate of Andorhar, and divide the granary to prevent anyone from setting fire." ”

"Yes. The guard asked, "Do you want to wake up Miss Proudmoore?"

"I'll go personally. Arthas opened his mouth and came, but Gianna was beside him.

The guards of Andohar are well-trained, but this time the opponents who attacked at night were outnumbered, and there was a heavy unit that was not present in the early part of the original historical line, the meat grinder.

The Meat Grinder is a bloody, terrifying, hideous, and profane device that collects corpses to use as materials for necromancers to summon bone warriors and bone mages, and can also be thrown like a stone cart, with corpse bombs, explosions, and highly corrosive properties, which are highly destructive to buildings.

It didn't take long for Andorhar's heavy wooden gates to be badly corroded and blown apart, and then the bone warriors and ghouls, under the cover of the abomination of the tank-like hunks, rushed up from the darkness, squeezed through the shattered gates, and stormed into Andorhar.

Before the human side was ready, they had to go up to face it.

Gianna summoned the water elemental and spawned fireballs to bombard the target. Arthas, carrying a hammer and commanding as he fought, reminded his warriors to use their tactics as much as possible, to keep an eye on their left and right, and not to be tricked into becoming encircled.

At the same time, he also continued to apply the blessing of the king, and the aura of concentration was also playing a role.

Shortly after the battle was in full swing, Kel'thugad appeared with a ram's bone helmet.

He used magic to transmit his voice: "Your Royal Highness, I didn't expect you to be here, I showed up a little late, and it was rude. I have come by the beautiful moonlight to gather the believers of my Lord. Why did Your Highness insist on stopping ......"

Kel'thugad pretended to be so forced, and Arthas was naturally very angry.

Later, in the middle of the battle, Kel'thugad deliberately revealed the existence of the Dreadlord Marganis when Arthas couldn't help but scold him.
