Chapter 152: Finding a Way

After the fall of Stormstorm, Ser Lothar regrouped the remnants of Azeroth's forces and led a massive migration of refugees across the ocean to Lordaeron in the north. The leaders of the Seven Kingdoms of Humanity reached a consensus that if they did not stop the orc tribes, they would eventually conquer all of humanity, so the seven nations united to form the Lordaeron Alliance. For the first time in 3,000 years, the countries divided by Araço are united under the same banner. Designated as the Supreme Commander of the Human Alliance, Sir Lothar prepares his troops to face the invading orc tribes.

With the help of lieutenants Lightbringer Uther, Admirals Dalin, Prodmore, and Tulayan, Lothar succeeded in making the various non-human races of Lordaeron aware of the rapidly approaching threat. The Human Alliance succeeded in gaining support from the stubborn dwarves in Ironforge and a small group of High Elves in Quel'Thalas. The elves, led by the Anastria, the Sunstriders, have little interest in the impending war, yet they still come to the aid of Lord Lothar in order to fulfill their obligations under the contract, as Lothar is the last of Arathi's bloodline, descended from the humans who helped the High Elves centuries ago.

The orc tribe, led by Orgrim, the Hammer of Destruction, brought ogres from their hometown of Draeno and recruited the Amani Forest trolls who had been robbed of their homes into their troops. They waged campaigns on an unprecedented scale, engulfing the dwarven-ruled continent of Kazmodan and the southern region of Lordaeron, and effortlessly crushed all opposition forces.

The Second Orc War stretched from sporadic clashes at sea to massive aerial dogfights. For unknown reasons, the orc tribe dug up a powerful artifact known as the Demon Souls and used it to enslave the Red Dragon Queen, Alexstasa. The orc tribe threatens to destroy her precious dragon egg. Forcing Alexstrasa to send her adult children into battle. The noble red dragons had to fight for the orc tribe.

The war spanned all of Kazmodan, Lordaeron, and Azeroth. In the campaign on the Northern Front. The orc tribe burned the surrounding area of the distant elven kingdom of Quel'Thalas to ashes. This led the elves to fully assist the Human Alliance in its efforts. The larger towns of Lordaeron were razed to the ground, and despite a lack of reinforcements and an overwhelming superiority of the orcs, Lothar and his allies managed to hold back the enemy's advance.

However, in the final days of the Second Orc War, when the victory of the Orc Horde over the Human Alliance was within reach, a terrible split broke out between two of Azeroth's most powerful orcs. When Orgrim destroys the Hammer of Miè to attack Lordaeron's capital, it will be an attack that could crush the last remnants of the Human Alliance. In making their final preparations, Gul'dan and his followers left their posts and sailed. The Orc Horde lost nearly half of its garrison due to Gul'dan's betrayal, and the enraged Hammer of Destruction had to retreat, thus missing the best chance to defeat the Human Alliance.

Desperate for power, Gul'dan is obsessed with gaining the Godhead, and he desperately sends out a search party to find the tomb of Malganis, buried at the bottom of the sea, where he believes the secret of ultimate power is hidden. Gul'dan had sold all of his orc compatriots to the Burning Legion as slaves, and he had not thought about doing his duty to destroy the Hammer of Miè. With the support of the Plunder Clan and the Twilight Hammer Clan, Gul'dan managed to locate the tomb of Malganis at the bottom of the sea. But when he opens the doors of this ancient dungeon, Gul'dan discovers that all that awaits him is a myriad of mad demons.

In order to punish the orcs who defected, the hammer of destruction ordered his troops to hunt down Gul'dan and bring back the mutinous orcs. Gul'dan paid the price for his recklessness. He was torn to shreds by the mad demons he unleashed. After the death of their leader, the rebellious clans were soon routed by the enraged legions of the Hammer of Destruction. Although the mutiny was suppressed. But the orc tribes were no longer able to make up for the losses caused by the civil strife. Gul'dan's betrayal brought not only hope to the Alliance, but also time to regroup and the opportunity to launch a counterattack.

Seeing a split within the orc tribe, Sir Lothar wasted no time in gathering his last forces and forcing the orcs back into the ruined hinterland of Azeroth. There, the Human Alliance surrounded the Orc stronghold in the Blackstone Tower. Despite Lothar's tragic death at the bottom of the tower, his lieutenant Turayan reunited his brothers of the Human Alliance at the last moment, driving the orc horde into the depths of the swamp of sorrow. Tulayan's forces succeeded in destroying the Dark Gate, the mysterious passage that connected the orc's homeland of Draenor to the world of Azeroth. The orc tribe, cut off from supplies and backups, finally collapsed in front of the Alliance's forces.

The torn orc clan was quickly driven into a heavily guarded captive camp. While it looks like the orcs have been completely defeated, there are still doubts about how long this peace will last. At this time, Khadgar, who was already a famous ** master, persuaded the upper echelons of the Alliance to establish a Watch Fort to monitor the ruins of the Dark Gate and ensure that the orcs would not launch new invasions from Draenor.

As Sindagosa stacked piles of materials in front of Marlos, Lin Yue saw the light of greed in his eyes. But for the sake of the drawings, in order to save his companions, Lin Yue did not speak. Marlos instructed his subordinates to collect the materials, and then placed the drawings on the table in front of Lin Yue.

"This is the blueprint of Silvermoon City, and we left two secret passages when we built Silvermoon City. Marlos said that although the dwarves are stubborn and very picky, their reputation has always been the best in the whole continent, and as long as they have promised something, they will definitely do it.

Lin Yue put away the drawings in front of him, and did not rush to open them, but asked, "Your Excellency Marlos, I have another question I want to ask you." ”

"Although, my friend. Marlos accepted Lin Yue's materials, and his title immediately changed.

"I have two heavy weapons, but I can only use one at a time. Is there any way to increase my arm strength so that I can use two weapons to fight at the same time?" Lin Yue felt that it was really the biggest regret that Frost Sorrow and Shadow Sorrow could not be used at the same time, but it was a pity that his strength was simply not enough to pick up two Legendary-level weapons at the same time.

"The more powerful the weapon, the more demanding it is for the user, and in all cases one person can only use one heavy weapon. Malos said.

"You said that in most cases, is there still a way?" Lin Yue asked.

"Actually, it's not a solution, we dwarves have no one to do. Legend has it that there is indeed a race that can do it. Marlos shook his head, then said in a reverent tone. (To be continued......)
