Chapter Twenty-Four: The First Battle of the Swamp

"How many portals are there in this world?" Illidan asked, pulling out Gul'dan's skull.

Guldan's voice sounded in his head: "My master, Naozu, is an expert in the use of portals, and he opened many portals in Draenor, and because of the energy of these portals, the planet was torn apart, causing the plates to fall apart. There are still four portals in operation, and it is through these portals that the demons have come to this world. ”

Therefore, the first step was to fight Marcellidon and cut off his reinforcements. You should have a way to destroy the portal. ”

"Of course, I'm the most powerful warlock ever. ”

"Then help us destroy the portal. ”

"What's in it for me?"

"Defeat Mathridon and gain his power and I will be able to resurrect you. ”

"Well, talk about it. ”

Illidan said to the people, "There are currently four portals, and if we want to fight for a place here, we will inevitably clash with the lord of this place, Maseridon, and to fight him we must cut off the source of their army - the portal, and there is one in the swamp where we are at present. ”

"We blood elves have also fought with demons, compared to the armies of Akmund and Tikdios, the demons in this place give me the feeling that they are scattered and undisciplined, from this point of view, their leader is a mediocre person, so we are not afraid to challenge them, this battle in the swamp should be to find out the strength of the other party. Kael'thas said.

"What Kyle said is exactly what I wanted, on the one hand, to cut off their backup, and on the other hand, to see their combat effectiveness. Illidan said.

"Don't forget me, I'm going to do my best. Fasqi said.

"Ma'am, your most important task at the moment is to safeguard our gains, protect the base, and make the lake work to back us up. Illidan said.

"However, this is a swamp battle, and Naga has an advantage in moving freely in the water. Fasqi said.

"Well, let the Naintus fight with me, and you lead the rest of the army to protect the base. Illidan said.

"That's fine, Naintus, and protect Lord Illidan. Fasqi said.

"I obey my orders and am happy to fight with Lord Illidan. Naintus said, looking at Illidan with gratitude on his face.

As for Naintus, he was just an ordinary Elven civilian guard before he became Nagar, which meant that he had to work hard to get ahead, but in the end, his bravery and perseverance were appreciated by Fasqi, and he was promoted to his current status as a High Overseer after fighting the Sea Giant. However, although he has become Fasqi's right and left hand, Fasqi seems to trust the Lord of the Deep Water, Karasares, who is from a noble family and has never taken Naintus seriously, and the two have been fighting openly and secretly. It wasn't until he saw Illidan fighting that Naintus was drawn to it and decided to support Illidan instead. After Fasqi left, he was happy to think that he had become the number one under Illidan, and he didn't expect what would happen next, but now he was happy to be able to lead Naga to follow Illidan on his own again.

"Kyle, how do you think we're going to fight the first battle?" said Illidan.

Kael'thas knew that he had just joined, so Illidan asked to see what he was capable of, but for him who had already been in battle, commanding battles was what he was good at, and he replied: "My lord, I think that although the demons are undisciplined and their combat effectiveness is not comparable to that of Akmund's army, we must not underestimate the enemy, because after all, we are not equal to them, and it is our duty to achieve the greatest success with the least sacrifice." Therefore, in this battle, we should gather the main force, first fight an ambush, frustrate the opponent's spirit, and then accumulate advantages to take the portal in one fell swoop. ”

Illidan looked at Kael'thas with no fear on his face, this young prince had vicissitudes and strength in his eyes that were not commensurate with his age, he had experienced the disaster of destroying his country and the extinction of his species, he had to suffer the pain of being betrayed by his allies, and for the revival of his race, he had to send people under the fence again, and had to take on the responsibility of racial revival. Countless wars have made him sophisticated and wise.

"Yes, at this point we have to save our strength and win at the minimum cost. He said.

After the army had made some way along the wetlands filled with giant mushrooms and ponds, Illidan saw the terrain and said, "Overseer Naintus!"

"My subordinates are here, what do you command? Naintus replied.

"You lead the Nagar army to lurk in the water, and when the demon passes by, pull it into the water and destroy it. ”

"Yes!" Naintus led his team to disperse into the water.

"Kyle!" he turned to the Blood Elf.

"My lord, my subordinates are here. Kael'thas said.

"You lead a force of five hundred men to the portal to fight the demons. ”

"Five hundred? ”

"Yes, only defeat and no victory, and then retreat here. ”

Kael'thas suddenly understood Illidan's strategy, and his doubts just now were swept away, "Take orders." ”

The demons that emerge from the portal are strong, but lack a leader, so they are all stragglers, unless they are eventually assembled by Mathridon. Therefore, when they saw the small number of Blood Elf troops approaching, they pounced on their prey like hungry beasts.

Kael'thas saw that his goal had been accomplished, and hurriedly retreated.

Demons with horns on their heads and sulfur all over their bodies, and their mouths of blood poured down in a chaotic manner, dense like a flood that wanted to swallow it all.

Kael'thas's army has vanguarded into a giant swarm of mushrooms, and the demons are in pursuit.

At this moment, the sound of demons falling into the water and roaring was heard, and the demons disappeared from the water, and then the corpses floated out of the water. Naintus is on the move.

Just as the demon began to wonder, suddenly there was a shout of killing overhead, and arrows rained down from the sky, and the demon squeezed between the giant mushrooms became chaotic, and a large number of corpses appeared where the arrows fell.

Illidan's forces were ambushed on top of the giant mushroom, giving them the upper hand.

The mages in the demon army began to fight back, and a series of fireballs flew up to the top of the mushroom one after another, and some of the blood elf archers were blown down.

"Magic troops!" Illidan shouted.

Behind the demon, there was another shout of killing, and a group of warriors wearing armor and holding huge shields jumped from the mushrooms behind the demon troops, and the demons who had just cast the spell were instantly killed. This is the blood elves after countless wars composed of elite law-breaking troops, they are not only charging warriors, but also powerful mages, are the nemesis of mages, so they are called lawbreakers.

Not long after the law-breaking troops entered the battlefield, the blood elf mage troops behind them also appeared, and the powerful formation with the law-breaking troops acting as meat shields and mage troops acting as firepower output began to tear apart the demon troops.

Kael'thas is such an amazing guy and has developed such a strong team that I can't lose to him either. Illidan thought that the time had come for a general attack, and he gave the signal for a general attack.

The Demon Hunter leapt down, his body ablaze with flames, and he slashed left and right between the demons, like chopping vegetables. The demon had no way to advance or retreat, and was killed to the point where the ghost cried wolf.

Kael'thas also came back at this time, casting the spell of the Flame Storm, and a pillar of fire four or five meters thick swirled and swam in the dense area of the demons, leaving only char everywhere he went.

Naga in the water was unwilling to be lonely and freed up the water for a general attack, Naintus held a huge spear and pierced the heart of one of the Doomsday Guards, and then rushed to the next one, and he became excited at the sight of the demon's blood splattering, like a raging beast tearing at the prey around him.

The battle did not last long, and the scattered demons were no match for the well-organized coalition forces, and Illidan led this team to destroy all the demons that came out of the portal, and started the first battle to challenge Matheridon.
