Chapter 600: The Strong Have the Right Not to Make a Choice (10,000 Words Chapter: Subscription)
There was no doubt that the brief battle between Zuosi and the Lich attracted countless eyes from within the camp.
Those who do not know their true identity are especially aware of what the title "God's Chosen One" means for the first time.
In just a few days, a young man who was dying, hiding in a village barn, was guided by the gods to gain the power to confront the lich, a terrifying undead with intelligence, and even to the point that the other party did not dare to approach the camp.
Whether it was the rain of holy light arrows in the sky with the first blow, or the super flame explosion technique with amazing destructive power, it was not at all like a novice beginner, but like those famous archmages of Dalaran.
Since many people had seen Gianna cast spells on the way to Stratholme, they were not ignorant of this.
They knew very well that even the chief archmage of the Magic Kingdom, a young female mage whom Anthony Das described as a genius, would not be able to grasp more than two completely different magical energies like this, and shape them into various forms according to their own will.
Therefore, in the eyes of outsiders, this sudden power comes from the gift of God, and its principle should be the same as those priests who obtain magic and knowledge out of thin air.
If you are chosen, you can also become equally powerful in a very short time.
As a result, they all became extremely fanatical, eager to attract the attention of the gods through brave battles and devout beliefs, even in the face of a vast number of undead.
The already precarious defensive line was also rock-solid under the effect of high morale, and in some places there was a partial reversal.
The militia and the fleeing residents of Stratholme worked together to find everything they could use nearby to build fortifications.
Even stout wooden stakes were used as beams above the narrow entryway, and a sturdy rope was tied to the end of the heavy stones, which were pulled to the high point using the pendulum principle.
When a large number of undead rush in, they suddenly let go of the rope they were dragging and let them smash down with a thunderous force.
Under the effect of gravitational acceleration, it can often crush massive ghouls, zombies, and skeletons to pieces in one fell swoop.
Drop a few along the way and inflict unimaginable damage on your enemies.
In addition, digging up a high slope and lighting a haystack above it can also have a very good effect.
Unlike frontal field battles, which can only be fought hard and played with some tactical coordination, relying on towns and camps for defense often does not require too much combat experience and discipline.
As long as you use your brains, you can always come up with some means that will cause headaches for the attacker.
Even civilians who can overcome their initial fears can use the terrain to kill enemies several times as many as themselves.
Not to mention that the opponent is a low-level undead, a fool who has no IQ and only knows how to obey orders and rush forward without brains.
After withstanding the most violent and also dangerous onslaught of the first round, the militia and the residents of Stratholme, who had been a little flustered before, suddenly realized that the army of the undead was really nothing.
After suppressing the most threatening magical plague, the so-called undead are nothing more than beasts that have no fear and are not afraid of death.
Cutting off their hands and feet will cripple them and make them lose their mobility and attack.
So the militiamen, who were accustomed to poking their spears in the chest, turned to poke their heads or knees.
The former can be a one-hit kill to a certain extent, while the latter can make the undead move extremely slowly and non-threatening.
Wait until the opponent climbs close before having a companion with a hammer or axe break it up.
Due to the very high walls of the camp ordered by Arthas, and the very narrow passage connecting the camps inside, which could only accommodate three or four people side by side, the undead could not use their numerical superiority at all.
In addition, at this time, the Cursed Sect has just risen, and the main army of the Lich King is in the distant continent of Northrend, and the Eastern Kingdom does not have flying units such as gargoyles, banshees, and frost dragons at all, so there is no good way to face a solid defensive offensive.
Not to mention the flying units, even the number of Abomination and Meat Grinder is very scarce, and it has not been able to form a natural disaster enough to sweep everything.
That's why their strategy is to infect densely populated towns with the plague, rather than attacking them head-on.
Seeing that the cannon fodder under his command was constantly consumed but could not achieve any results, the lich finally became a little impatient, and kept trying to mobilize ghouls to climb the wall to lure Zuo Si to attack, while he hid behind and waited for the opportunity to launch a sneak attack, so as to consume the mana of this dangerous enemy.
After all, he can "eat" the undead creatures he controls through death contracts and dark rituals to restore his vitality and mana, so he is not afraid to fight a protracted war of attrition.
As long as we can win the victory in the end and wipe out all the priests who have the ability to purify the plague, then it will be worth it to exhaust all the army that has been accumulated with great difficulty.
What's more, the Lich is looking forward to capturing this young man alive with powerful spell-casting abilities, then sacrificing it to the Great Lich King, and then respawning as a Scourge in his death form.
In fact, the Scourge has always done a pretty good job of attracting talent.
The corners of Dalaran alone were dug up.
Kel'thugad is just one of the most famous, along with quite a few others drawn to death knowledge and psychic spells.
At this stage, all lichs are basically transformed from mages from Dalaran, which can be seen in their signature tactics and spell-casting habits.
"Give up, young man, even if you defeat me, I will not win this war.
Because death is the ultimate destination of all life.
No matter how much you struggle and procrastinate, it only delays it for a while.
One day you will bow down to death and succumb to this great power.
Not to mention that I am only the vanguard of the Scourge Legion, another minion of little great will.
If you are willing to surrender, then you will surely gain more forbidden knowledge and power, and finally overcome death and obtain eternal life. ”
The Lich unleashes a biting frost spell while trying to use words to tempt Zuo Si, distract him from his thinking, and cast spells.
But alas, it was all in vain.
Maybe others don't know who is behind the Cursed Sect and the Scourge, but Zuo Si is obviously clear.
And for the original Lich King Naozu, his evaluation has always been "pure waste", and he has never been on the stage.
Whether it was being toyed with by Kil'Gardan at the beginning, allowing the orcs to destroy and slaughter the Draenei living in Draenor, and finally falling into the control of the Burning Legion;
Or the shrunken-headed turtle after the rise of Gul'dan and the Shadow Council to save his life, watching the orcs drink the blood of demons and turn into a group of brutal and bloodthirsty monsters;
Or the frenzied opening of the portal caused the land of his homeland to be torn apart, and he fell into the hands of Kil'Gardan, the commander of the Burning Legion, and his soul was tortured in words beyond words, and then transformed by evil magic, into the Lich King, the tool of the Legion's invasion of Azeroth;
In the end, when he even merged with Arthas, he was defeated by the latter and completely reduced to a pathetic clown.
It can be said that the second half of Naozu's life was from one failure to another.
He is greedy and cowardly, even a little vile and shameless, but he is timid and can't abandon all humanity and fall into darkness completely.
Perhaps the only highlight was the successful backstabbing of the Burning Legion out of Kil'Gardan's control during the Third Great War, but that was about it.
Therefore, Zuo Si has always had only contempt, contempt and disdain for Nao Zu.
If it was an invitation from the Burning Legion, he might have thought about it a little.
At least the evil energy technology of the human army is really powerful, from ultra-long-range communication at the transverse level to a portal network all over various planets, as well as a huge formation of starships, it can be said that it has almost everything.
Mechanical Gundams like the Magic Mecha and constructs like Hellfire are not advanced technologies in the eyes of the Legion.
Do you think people play magic?
But in fact, people's scientific and technological level has reached a very high level, and it is completely possible to fight an interstellar war in space.
But the Lich King and the Scourge ......
I'm sorry, a third-rate force that doesn't even understand the Northrend continent, and the leader is even weaker, so let's stay where it is cool.
Whenever there is the slightest hesitation, Zuo Si feels that it will damage his identity.
So he rolled his eyes and shot a holy light spell from his backhand to pierce the lich's chest, emitting a dazzling golden light near the wound and burning the surrounding bones continuously.
"Ah!!!h
The pain caused by the burning of the soul immediately caused the latter to let out a miserable scream, and hurriedly retreated again and again, his eyes full of vigilance and jealousy.
As a sacred energy that restrains death, Holy Light can not only be used to heal injuries, but can also inflict massive damage on undead creatures.
Arthas often smashed the Holy Light directly on the head of a ghoul, burning it into a black sheet of carbide.
Just as the lich was about to devour the undead creatures around him again to recover, a shout of killing suddenly came from the direction of the Stratholme gate in the distance.
Followed by a group of heavily armed Lordaeron Kingdom soldiers rushed out from within, slamming straight behind the army of the undead at lightning speed.
It was none other than Prince Arthas, who was shining with golden light all over his body.
Obviously, after learning that the camp outside the city was besieged by an army of the undead, he immediately led his team back to kill him.
And counting the time, this army has been fighting for hours, both mentally and physically, and must rest and replenish food and water.
"Damn it!"
Seeing this, the lich immediately realized that he had lost his chance, and turned around to retreat with the remaining undead.
"Your blatant retreat is too disrespectful to me, isn't it?"
Zuo Si immediately abandoned the camp that was already safe and chased after him directly.
Although I haven't been able to master the teleportation magic of this world for the time being, it doesn't mean that there is no way to do the right teleportation magic.
"Stop him!"
The lich quickly gave orders to the two giant stitched abominations beside him.
He could clearly sense the magnitude of the crisis he was currently facing, so he channeled the arcane energy to teleport away without even thinking about it.
The Abomination, who received the order, immediately stepped forward and charged like two heavy trucks.
Many of the retreating ghouls, zombies, and skeletons were crushed by their massive paws, making creepy sounds.
"Forget the stitch abomination! Interrupt the Lich's cast focus first! Don't let him run away! ”
Arthas single-handedly fought his way through the countless undead, shouting at the top of his voice.
From the murderous aura in his eyes and the armor that was almost red with blood, it was not difficult to see that he had killed a large number of the inhabitants of Stratholme, and now wanted to kill this lich to vent his irrepressible anger and hatred.
"You can't run away."
Zuo Si raised his hands and began to chant a mantra that no one could understand.
In the blink of an eye, all the divine energy that caused the death to be fearful condensed in the palm of his hand, and bloomed with a white light ten thousand times more dazzling than the sun.
Just as the lich was about to complete the teleportation, his entire body was instantly hit by a white pillar of light falling from the sky.
Next Second......
Rumble!!!!!!!
I saw that the lich's body quickly crumbled in the middle of this white pillar of light, turning into dust and drifting away in the wind.
When the pillar of light disappeared, not even a single residue remained.
Arthas and the soldiers behind him were completely stunned when they saw this.
The prince himself, in particular, had fought with such undead creatures before, and understood how terrible and difficult the lich could be.
He obviously had the upper hand several times and was almost able to slash it, but the other party still escaped.
But now, a young man from a village who was powerless just a few days ago can gain such amazing power under the guidance of God, it must be false to say that he is not envious.
Arthas even had the idea of abandoning the Light and the Paladin's profession in favor of the God of Contract.
He was willing to pay whatever it took to get enough power to kill Marganis, let alone just faith.
Obviously, Zuo Si used the [Immortal Return] in the Six Rings Divine Technique.
The effect of this spell is that each priest level can destroy undead creatures with a total level of LV1 to LV4, and even a LV11 priest who has just obtained the six-ring magic can kill the undead of LV11 to LV44 with [Return to the Dead].
It can even reach a terrifying value of LV20 to LV80.
In other words, as long as there are no protections, magic resistances, and exemptions, even a legendary lich will be killed by a single shot, and there is no chance of being spared at all.
It is with this spell that high-ranking priests are called necromancers.
The container controlled by Zuo Si can cast the Nine Rings Divine Technique, so the lowest priest level is LV17, and even if you take the middle value, it has LV34.
Kel'thugad may not be able to reach this level after transforming into a Great Lich, and ordinary Lichs who don't even deserve their names are basically killed when they are killed.
Of course, since the lich of this world also has something similar to the life box, as long as the life box is not destroyed, it will not be long before it will be resurrected again.
With the death of the supreme commander of the Undead Legion, the remaining undead who had no ability to think quickly fell into chaos and collapsed.
The two super-giant stitched abominations that rushed up were also eliminated one by one with the help of Arthas.
As the sun set in the evening, the battle finally ended with a victory on the human side.
The entire land outside Stratholme was littered with mutilated corpses, and the stench of embalming fluid and rotten flesh.
In order to prevent the plague contained in the corpses of the undead from contaminating the land and water sources, soldiers, militiamen, and the residents of Stratholm who had been treated resisted their nausea and collected the corpses and piled them together for incineration.
The sky-high flames can be seen clearly from several kilometers away.
Such a tragic scene made everyone lose their appetite for meat, and they just drank some cereal porridge and nibbled on two pieces of bread to restore their physical energy.
"What a bad day, isn't it?"
Looking at the eyes of the inhabitants of Stratholme, either fearful or hateful, Arthas couldn't help but let out a bitter self-deprecation.
He knew very well that what he had done today would never be understood, but he did not regret it.
Because if this is not done, there will not be a single living person in the whole of Stratholme, and even the surrounding area will be affected by this.
"yes, it was a bad day. Let's have some tea and relax. ”
Zuo Si casually handed over the cup that Gianna had used before.
The prince obviously didn't notice this detail, or he hadn't been in the mood to pay attention to what Gianna had been doing lately, so he subconsciously took it and took a big sip, savoring the bitterness with a hint of sweetness with his taste buds, and it took a long minute before he let out a long breath.
"Whoa, thanks, I'm feeling better now. To be honest, I'm glad to have you allies by my side, otherwise I don't know if I will be able to hold on to it tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. ”
"Even without us, you'll keep going. For you are Arthas, the man destined to become the king of Lordaeron. Zuo Si replied quietly.
"A man destined to become the King of Lordaeron?
You're a comforter.
I don't know how my father will react after doing this.
He may be angry and strip me of my inheritance and exile me to appease the anger and fear of the people. ”
Alsace's tone was filled with pessimism and despair.
Even Gianna, who was closest to him, and Uther, who had been the most admired, could not understand him, and he did not think that the stubborn royal father would understand that this bloody massacre was actually saving the kingdom.
"You are too pessimistic, dear Prince. Trust me, no matter what happens, you are destined to become the king of Lordaeron. ”
Zuo Si made a meaningful prediction.
After all, killing all the living and transforming them into undead is also a way to rule.
Although the regime established by Arthas, the Death Knight, was later overthrown by Sylvanas and the Dreadlords, he was also the King of Lordaeron for a while.
"Is this a prophecy from the gods?"
The prince's eyes widened sharply, as if sensing something.
Zuo Si nodded slightly: "Yes, you can understand that this is a prophecy from God." But the process and the result may be a little different from what you imagined. ”
"It doesn't matter!
My succession to Lordaeron's throne means that the Cult of the Damned and the Scourge will eventually be defeated.
Peace and tranquility will also be restored to the Kingdom.
Thank you, my friend, for the tremendous help you and your God have given me.
I will keep this kindness in my heart and fulfill my promise the moment I become king. ”
As he said this, Alsace's mood became noticeably higher, and a fire called hope ignited in his heart.
In this regard, Zuo Si just smiled politely and said nothing.
The two of them sat around the campfire, taking small bites of freshly baked soft bread and chatting about the situation in the city of Stratholme.
With news that the prince is slaughtering civilians spreading through the streets, and many people dying from the plague and quickly transformed into undead to attack the living, the city is now in complete chaos and chaos.
Some gathered as families to seal the doors and windows of a sturdy building to ward off threats from the streets outside;
Others gave up on themselves and began to rob, rape, and kill, wanting to indulge themselves before they died.
On top of that, the Dreadlord Marganis has taken it upon himself to transform the inhabitants into one of the undead, occasionally sending ghouls, mages of the Cursed Sect, and Stitch Abomination to launch surprise attacks.
Today alone, more than 150 soldiers have died under such an elusive attack.
Obviously, in addition to the reasons that have been stated that Stantholm must be purified, Alsace has another reason that has not been spoken.
That is, it is much easier to kill the sick and weak living who are infected with the plague than it is to kill the undead who do not know what fear is.
Due to the very limited number of troops, if you do nothing and watch the situation deteriorate like Uther and Gianna, and then try to clean up when the inhabitants begin to transform on a large scale, the casualties and costs will be several times or even more than ten times or dozens of times the current one.
After a brief dinner, Arthas, exhausted from a long day of fighting, soon lay down in his tent, closed his eyes and snored.
He didn't even take off his armor, and at the same time clutched the hammer in his hand, apparently ready to wake up and go into battle at any moment.
As the prince's lieutenant and personal bodyguard, Captain Farrick sighed softly when he noticed this, picked up a slightly worn blanket and lightly covered it, and then walked outside to sit down by the campfire, and tried to say something several times, but when it came to the end, he held back.
After repeating it seven or eight times, he took a sip of wine and plucked up the courage to say, "I found some problems in today's battle. ”
"Oh? What is it? ”
Zuo Si asked casually.
"That terrible demon Marganis!
It seems to be deliberately provoking His Royal Highness the Prince to slaughter more of the inhabitants of Stratholme.
Every time this guy took advantage, he would stop and taunt unbridledly, causing the prince to completely lose his mind and slaughter madly in anger.
If it was once or twice, I might not have noticed it at all.
But the other party did it more than six times today. ”
Captain Farrick voiced his worries.
Because during the killing, the fierce and bloodthirsty expression on Arthas's face made him feel strange and frightened.
At the same time, the pleading of those sick civilians before death also made all the soldiers involved in this operation feel extremely painful.
Compared to physical pain, this kind of mental torture is the most deadly.
This is why after the undead catastrophe has ravaged the blood-colored crusade, an organization that is extreme and crazy in its bones.
To be exact, almost all the people who joined it after the war were not in their right minds.
Aside from taking revenge on the Scourge and the Lich King, they couldn't find a second reason or meaning to keep them alive.
Of course, Farick obviously doesn't need to worry about this.
Because with Arthas's "nostalgia", he will inevitably kill this loyal lieutenant after receiving the Frost Grief, and transform it into an undead spirit, who will always be by his side.
It's like he resurrected his former beloved horse Invincible as soon as he became a Death Knight.
Zuo Si looked at this young man with a slightly pitying personality as radical as Arthas, and whispered, "Your observation is very keen, at least much sharper than that of our Royal Highness the Prince. He didn't even see the slightest bit that it was a trap for himself. ”
"What? What do you mean...... Is Marganis deliberately provoking His Royal Highness the Prince so that he will slaughter his own people? So what is his purpose? Ruined the Prince's reputation? ”
Farek jerked to his feet and clenched his fists.
"No, he probably wanted to make the prince constantly cold and numb in the killing, and eventually become a completely different picture from the current one. Stratholme, on the other hand, was a game made by the enemy, and from the moment the prince made his difficult choice, he had already fallen into a trap. ”
Zuo Si didn't hide anything, and Dafang told the truth to the captain in front of him.
The reason why he dared to do this was because he knew that even if he knew the truth in advance, the other party would not be able to do anything.
Pharik couldn't convince Arthas to stop purifying Stratholme, and he couldn't stop the Dreadlord from provoking again and again, and even he himself would be unwittingly caught up in it.
There is no way, this is the sadness of the weak, who are being led by the nose from beginning to end, constantly being forced to make wrong choices.
To use a fitting analogy, Alsace's current predicament is like facing a robber who kidnaps his family and then asks him to kill one of his two children or both.
In this case, whichever outcome is chosen is destined to be a tragedy.
Because the weak cannot take down or even kill any child before the robber can harm him.
But if it is replaced by a strong person, he can not make any choice and rush directly to solve the robbers and save his family.
Therefore, the power of the strong is that they can always jump out of the rules of the game and have the right not to be forced to make any choices.
And Zuo Si obviously already has such power.
Any form of threat and intimidation will only be met with ten, a hundredfold retaliation from him.
Unfortunately, Arthas doesn't have such power, and even after becoming the Lich King, he is still just a pawn.
"Bastard!"
Farrick slammed his fist into the ground to create a small dirt pit, and the expression on his face was even more terrifying.
Obviously, he knew that he could do nothing but watch the enemy's tricks succeed.
After all, Arthas's stubbornness was no worse than that of his father, King Terenus, but even better.
After the conversation was over, Zuo Si got up and went to treat the wounded soldiers, militiamen, and civilians, and by the way, to see how the patients infected with the plague were recovering.
If you find that someone can't stand it and starts to go into coma and shock, you have to carry it to the other side of the fence in the distance to prevent it from suddenly turning into an undead and jumping up and hurting someone after death.
After a busy day of treatment, more than 90% of the people have improved significantly.
But there are also hundreds of them who have not been able to hold on, and now they have turned into zombies, constantly roaring in the quarantine area and struggling to reach out their arms to catch people.
When the militia guarding the neighborhood found out, they immediately killed him and dragged the body outside to be burned.
When the sky was completely dark, Zuo Si said hello to Lenny and left the barracks alone and entered the city of Stratholme.
Even though it's midnight, visibility is very high.
Because the skyrocketing fire lit up the whole city.
Almost a quarter of the wooden houses were burning, and the fire was spreading in all directions with the night wind.
Despite a day of rescue and massacre, there were still a significant number of inhabitants in the city.
The crackling of the burning wood of the fire, the occasional hysterical laughter, the screams and cries of women when they were violated, and the painful wails of being trapped in a house and burned alive......
There is no doubt that Stratholme at this moment is a complete purgatory.
Law and order are long gone, and only a group of ordinary people have completely collapsed in the face of death and fear.
"Ahh
Zuo Si couldn't help but sigh.
Although the ability to empathize is weak, it is impossible to produce real empathy, and there is no reaction to sadness and tears, but the compassion that extends based on values is still somewhat partial.
If the main body or clone was here, he would definitely save the city and its inhabitants.
But the problem is that he has only come to a wisp of consciousness now, and the container is also temporarily selected to make do, and even Marganis, the weak chicken fear demon king, may not be able to fight, where is he qualified to save others.
So Zuo Si didn't pay attention to the crime that was happening, and he didn't try to save anyone, but walked straight to the temporary base that the undead had set up here.
His goal tonight is to test Marganis's strength, by the way, to confirm the upper limit of his body, and then make the next plan based on the feedback.
……
Meanwhile, far to the south, the magical kingdom of Dalaran.
Gianna is arguing fiercely with her mentor, Anthony Das, about the magical plague.
"How many times have I said that!
If the plague was indeed created by Kel'thugad with the help of psychic magic, then it would not have been possible to research an antidote in a short period of time.
Because in the field of psychic magic, there is no second person in the whole of Dalaran who has gone further and studied more deeply than him.
So let's give up the unrealistic idea, magic doesn't happen overnight.
You can't save the inhabitants of Stratholme, and neither can I. ”
The archmage held his forehead and reprimanded in a very stern tone.
But how do those pastors who believe in the God of Covenant do it?
They can use herbs and a kind of magic to transform water into holy water.
All plague-infected people who drank the holy water, as long as they were in good health and their illnesses were not particularly severe, were able to recover quickly.
Look, I've got the recipes for their potions and herbal drinks back. ”
As she spoke, Gianna took out the parchment she had given her before leaving and placed it on the table.
Anthony Das subconsciously took it and glanced at it twice, and immediately raised his eyebrows in surprise: "It's all new formula?!" There seems to be something about this pact god. ”
Gianna replied without thinking, "Of course! I've seen the priests work their own magic, each unheard of or unseen. So I think that as long as I ask them for help, I will definitely be able to quickly develop an antidote to the plague. ”
"Soth, the god of contracts......
It seems that we need to pay more attention to this sudden denomination.
Compared to the plague that is spreading in the kingdom of Lordaeron, this is an object that needs to be focused on.
Because he can empower believers, which is obviously not something that can be done casually.
And I didn't find the slightest mention of it in the library. ”
Anthony Das muttered to himself as he touched the thick white beard on his chin.
As the supreme leader of the Magic Kingdom, he has access to all the knowledge in the city at will, so he knows that there are many powerful beings in this world.
These include the demigods of the wilderness born of life and the forces of nature, powerful lords from the elemental plane, the god Loa worshipped by the trolls, the five guardian dragons, and the many guardians left behind by the Titans......
In short, only those beings that are beyond imagination can bestow mortals with knowledge and power.
And any such existence can cause devastating destruction and disaster at will.
The most detailed of these is none other than Ragnaros, the Fire Demon King who single-handedly altered the terrain and created the Blackstone Mountains, Scorching Canyons, and Burning Plains.
Since the dwarves are allies of humans, this history can be found in the library of Ironforge.
In addition, Dalaran was originally a researcher of various magical powers and supernatural life, and was inextricably linked to the Council of Tirisfa, so he was often extremely sensitive and vigilant in this regard.
"Do you think the coming of the God of Contracts is a threat?" Gianna asked in a tone of uncertainty.
Anthony Das hesitated for a moment, and quickly shook his head: "I don't know, I can't make a judgment for the time being."
Although your report mentions what the other party has done, it is still a short time and needs to be observed.
But on the bright side, if this is really a kind and benevolent god, then it is not a bad thing for humanity and the whole world.
At least we can get a powerful protector in exchange for giving our faith.
When the time comes, you won't have to be afraid to deal with threats like demons. ”
"What about the plague? Is it just watching it wreak havoc in the kingdom of Lordaeron? Watching countless innocent people die? ”
Gianna persistently continued to ask.
"I'll bring it up at tomorrow's regular meeting.
As for whether it can be passed, there is no guarantee.
You should know that the atmosphere in Dalaran is very tense these days.
As large numbers of orcs fled the camps and plundered towns and villages along the way, many began to attack the decision to contain these bloodthirsty monsters in the first place.
And your father, Dai Lin, is the most fierce of them, and plans to personally lead the fleet to capture and execute all the escaped orcs.
Many members of the alliance who have formed a blood feud with the orcs support him.
Dalaran is also divided into two factions and is currently quarrelling.
Until they get a result, they don't have the heart to bother with anything else.
And the plague in Lordaeron didn't even take King Terenus seriously, so how could the archmages of Dalaran take it seriously.
So I'd suggest you'd better not expect too much. ”
From Anthony Das's words, it is not difficult to hear how much damage the orcs led by Thrall have caused to the kingdom of Lordaeron and even the entire alliance.
After all, compared to the never-before-heard of Cult of the Damned and the Undead Scourge, the threat of orcs is real, and has been amply demonstrated in the previous two wars.
Even the most powerful warriors in humanity will fall short when faced with these fierce and bloodthirsty green-skinned monsters.
His incredible strength and terrifying talent for rage make him invincible in melee combat.
Combined with strong pain tolerance and resistance to blows, he is a natural fighter.
Therefore, whether it is to prevent the orcs from rising again, or to quell opposition within the Alliance, King Terenus must first transfer his forces to the southern sector to solve the troubles caused by the orc's escape.
This is also the reason why Alsace is obviously a prince but has very few troops.
It's not that Terenus doesn't want to give him more, it's that there's really none.
Thrall and the orcs were actually one of the major factors in the rapid spread of the plague in the north, which eventually led to the destruction of the kingdom of Lordaeron.
And the casualties and destruction caused by these guys are no worse than the undead.
Although Thrall has always advertised that he wants to cut with the dark history of the past and lead the orcs to regain their lost shamanic faith and glory.
Ken's problem is that orcs used to belong to a typical nomadic tribal structure.
Anyone who knows anything about nomadic tribes knows what this means.
So it is all too common to massacre civilians, loot property, rape women, and set fire to villages during fighting.
Anyway, as a big chief, it was impossible for him to keep an eye on other clans that were operating alone twenty-four hours a day.
Not to mention the bloodthirsty and belligerent guy like Grom Hellroar, and the Warsong clan under his command that is also not very good......
