Volume II: Stormfall 213 Tower of the Guardians

Lothar was also injured yesterday, and the injury was not light. This wound from a fire is even more serious than a sword cut.

"I'm going to go back and see." I said to him.

"I'll go too." Khadgar said as he got up from the ground and glanced at me, "That's not how the Guardian shouldn't have ended. ”

Lothar looked at me and nodded, but didn't say anything. At this point a young man stood up, "I'll go too." ”

I turned my head to look at him, "yes, okay. "But as soon as I nodded, I saw his feet." What about your boots? "I looked at the young man.

"Uh...... Sorry, sir...... I accidentally squeezed it out last night. He lowered his head, his face flushed.

I laughed, and it was funny how ashamed he looked.

Reggie and Luke were willing to go with me, so we took six of them, including the young man who insisted on going back to find his boots, and went into the tower again.

Even though it was daylight outside, the gloomy sky didn't provide much more light into the building, and it was certainly much stronger than last night.

Last night's shaking had made the place a mess, and the dust in the air hadn't yet completely fallen. We started the search from the first floor with the torch in hand, and although we didn't expect to meet living people and creatures, we were sure to turn around and feel sure.

There are some side rooms on the left side of the hall on the first floor, and there is a long corridor behind the side rooms, and at the end of the corridor is the stable, and next to the stables there are several houses where there are forges......

I thought I could find some weapons or something like that in this place, but after turning around, I found nothing but horseshoes, and of course, there were several dried horses in the stables. Khadgar said we had escaped from here just now.

I knew this place up the stairs to the second floor, and that's where Khadgar teleported us, the kitchen.

The cook's body was still curled up there. He was a balding fat man, big man. Khadgar said that he was a man of few words, but he was kind and made soups that were especially delicious. However, now he has become a corpse.

Exactly why he was killed, and how he died, may only be known to Medivan himself. I saw the lad looking down, but by the time we left, he was still wearing a boot on one foot.

"Throw that boot away, too." I pointed to his feet, "It's more comfortable to be barefoot than you are now." I said.

He looked at me embarrassedly, so he took off his boots. "It's weird, I think I'm supposed to be squeezed out here." He muttered quietly.

This kitchen is large, and there are many abandoned stoves on the inside, and this large kitchen is more than enough space for fifty people to work together. Barbecue grills covered with dust, all kinds of dishes, cooking utensils, cutlery, candlesticks, piles are piled up.

And when we walked along the food passage into the banquet hall, I got a sense of what it once was. This banquet hall has more than 20 long tables and more than enough for more than 200 people.

And the momentum of the tall chair behind the main table at the front of the ballroom tells me how glorious the person who sits on it once was.

Khadgar told me that Moros had told him about what had happened in Karazhan, that he had been singing almost every night, that he had never worried about food or money, that someone would always come and give them enough.

However, one night a few years ago, a strong earthquake struck the castle after the banquet. Medivan was not at the scene at the time, and I don't know the specific situation, but many people died, those dignitaries, those old ladies and gentlemen, it should be said that almost all of them died, and Medivin was also injured.

Moros did not tell how he died, only that after that incident, Karazhan had not been visited.

I asked Khadgar when this happened, and Khadgar said that it must have been four years ago, before he came to Karazhan, and that he had only been here shortly after this happened.

I asked Khadgar who had sent him, and Khadgar said it was a high-ranking member of Dalaran. And when I continued to ask about something, he changed the subject. Carry the cook's body to the exit.

I wanted to go to the right, but Khadgar waved my hand to stop going, it was where Medivan kept his dogs and pets, and Medivan didn't like to leave the tower, so he built a playground for pets to play with. But he only came once.

I really wanted to find room by room except for the guest room, and although I also wondered if the people who would clean up the aftermath when I died would try to find something or dig up some secrets like I do now, I don't seem to have anything to hide or see.

He has such a large collection of books that I feel that maybe all the books in the human world can be found here, and although I also like books, they don't appeal to me at this time, and of course I don't expect to find any gold or silver jewelry, which I don't need right now.

I asked Khadgar if he had seen a place where Medivan had a weapons collection, but Khadgar said that Medivan was a magician. Thinking of this, I suddenly asked, "What about Medivan's cane?" ”

"I don't know." Khadgar was unimpressed.

I didn't say anything when he said that, and of course I wasn't going to tell him much until I saw it.

It was a bit of a struggle to get out of here last night, but I really didn't find it boring to scavenge here. But Khadgar soon grew impatient, and he just wanted to find his teacher's body and bury him.

I suspect he might know something and don't want to tell me or let me find out, and that's what I thought, though the idea was a bit petty.

When I saw the barefoot lad coming out of a room with a pair of leather boots on his feet, I smiled and asked him, "Your boots have come here." ”

He scratched his head embarrassedly, "This is ...... in the guest room. Mine hasn't been found yet. ”

"If it's right, throw away that boot in your hand, the pair on your feet looks expensive." I smacked my tongue.

He looked and threw his boots against the wall, Khadgar frowned but didn't say anything. I asked Khadgar to take someone to collect Medivan's body first, and he gave me a displeased look and led them away.

I wandered slowly in the silent corridor, hoping for something new to discover every time I opened the door, but as I walked, I suddenly remembered the demon dog I had met in the tower, and when I touched my waist and found that the axe was not on my body, I felt a cold sweat.

When I caught up with the people of Khadgar, Khadgar asked curiously, did I find anything? I naturally told him that I didn't find anything and didn't want to look for it, and that I was just a little worried about their safety, but of course they didn't believe it.

When we saw the scratched doors, I was sure that not only were they not fake, but that they could scratch the doors in such a number as you can imagine. Pushing the door in, the corpses on the ground were still there, and Khadgar crouched beside the monsters and studied them for a while. I told them to cut off its head or claws and bring it back to Stormwind, presumably for a good price.

When several soldiers heard this, they quickly drew their axes from their waists and got busy.

Khadgar stood there and glanced at me, helplessly watching the soldiers reap the spoils. After cutting off a pile of heads and claws, I pointed to them and said, "I may have to carry the corpses later, it is inconvenient for you to hang so many things on you, and it is not too late to carry them when you come back." The soldiers were convinced.

Stepping on the teleportation rune drawn on the ground again, he walked into Medivan's room. This room is in shambles. The water in the pool was no longer glowing green, but glowing faintly white. Medivan's charred body was still lying there.

But when I suddenly remembered Garona, I quickly looked around, but the more I looked for it, the more uneasy I became, and I opened all the fallen bookshelves and found no body of Garona.

"Reggie!" I shouted.

Reggie answered.

"Where's the orc?" I yelled at him.

He said he didn't see it. I asked the others and they didn't see it. My heart suddenly became nervous.

"Hurry up and find her! Khadgar! ”

Now I just hope she's not buried under the book or whatever, I just want her to be dead, dead! Even if her body is found in the pool!

"Reggie! In the pool! You go and fish for a pool! I shouted at him as I kicked away the piles of books on the floor.

Khadgar ...... "When I looked up at the two guys crouching in the pool, I saw that they were in a daze.

The two of them half-crouched and put their hands into the pool without moving, just staring at the glimmering water.

"Hey!" I yelled at both of them, no response!

"Go! Drag them out! I shouted.

Several knights rushed into the pool to drag them out, but as soon as they tumbled into the pool, the men did not move.

Seeing this scene, I was shocked in my heart, what kind of magic is this? Or was it a scourge left behind by Medivan during his lifetime?

The two knights who didn't turn into it were stunned, although Luke was not very smart, but he didn't understand this scene, he rushed to the edge of the pool and smashed a knight directly with his spear.

The knocked knight plunged headlong into the water, but quickly, and in less than ten seconds he jerked his head up from the water.

"Come out quickly!" I shouted at him. Luke reached for him, and the guy struggled to crawl out of the pool. Luke grabbed his hand, and it can be said that the guy was directly dragged by Luke and flew up.

In fact, the pool is not very big, about four meters in diameter. Luke smashed them into the pool one by one with his spear.

When I dragged them out one by one, I noticed that their faces were not very good-looking. It's not that it's uncomfortable after choking on water, but it's a bit of a distraction.

"Reggie?" I tilted my head and stared at him, a little straight in my eyes, and exclaimed.

"Huh?" He froze for two seconds, came back to his senses, and raised his eyelids to look at me.

"What's wrong with you?" I asked.

"I didn't ...... Not much ......," he shook his head. "Not really."

I looked at these people suspiciously, and they all seemed to have lost their souls. "Khadgar, Garona is gone." I say. "We need to get back quickly."

As I looked at Khadgar's face so closely, I realized that his face was much better looking than it had been this morning, or at least not so wrinkled.

Khadgar blinked, "Yes...... Well...... Garona ...... That's right......" He seemed to be thinking, but there was a clear confusion in his thinking. "What did you say?" He looked up at me.

"I said Garona was gone! She's gone! Last night I remember I strangled her! I grabbed the collar of the mage's clothes.

"Hey!" I yelled at Reggie, who was startled like a child in a daze, and he looked at me a little blankly.

Enraged, I threw Khadgar to the ground, reached out and grabbed Reggie's clothes, and rounded "Smack!" With a big mouth, he spun around and arched to the ground.

"Ahh Reggie yelled, and he got up from the ground, turned to look at me, and shouted, "What are you doing! ”

"What the fuck are you doing! What are you in a daze! I yelled at him and turned to Khadgar on the ground, and he seemed to come to his senses.

"You two...... What's going on with six! I pointed at Khadgar and yelled. Wake them up! I turned my head and shouted to the few people who hadn't entered the pool.

Looking at the few people who were all fanned awake, I asked, "What happened to you just now?"

The knights didn't speak, and I looked at Khadgar, "What are you stunned about?" ”

"It's a hallucination......" Khadgar glanced at the person next to him. It was probably the remnants of magic left by Medivan that caused us to hallucinate. ”

"It's a hallucination...... One knight said, "It's like...... I had a dream. ”

"I had a nightmare...... Damn it! Another said.

"Me too." A nod.

"I saw me standing in a place full of bones...... Snowy ...... Deserted place...... It's cold in there......" said the guy with new boots. "It's horrible out there...... It's ...... flying in the sky," he looked at me, "Is that the legendary dragon......"
