Volume III Kuroshio 103 No rest
The Griffin Knights of the Hammer Dwarves had already set off, and Lothar personally led the team to the town of Nanhai to welcome the arrival of the Aerospace Force. In order to give the dwarves a greater sense of accomplishment and honor, Lothar brought back all the people of the Stormwind Kingdom who had gone out to take refuge.
And the aborigines who went out to take refuge also returned to this completely destroyed town one after another after the orcs withdrew.
I asked Lothar why he did this, and he said that soon the dwarves would be keeping Kul Tiras' warship safe, and it was time to tell them something to look out for.
Self-assembly invites disaster, and excessive self-assembly invites death. Lothar said this was our only chance. If the battle goes well, everyone is happy, and if the dwarves can't defeat the orc dragoons, then it's hard to say whether we will win or lose this war.
I said how do you know.
He told me that the Battle of Lordaeron was so important, and that the dragons were not there, which meant that something must have gone wrong within the orcs. If the battle of crossing the sea goes well, we still have a glimmer of hope to win, but we can't say for sure, it is only a matter of time before the dragoons participate in the battle, and the sooner we meet, the sooner we will make a decision.
I asked him how sure he was of the battle to cross the sea, and he said it would depend on his luck.
In fact, he did not have enough confidence in the participation of the dwarves, but it is no wonder that he thought that there would be a mighty griffin army, but there were only about twenty people.
I was a little puzzled when I saw the twenty or so griffons passing overhead, and I really thought that this war was a show.
But the townsfolk on the ground cheered enthusiastically, they had never seen such a species before, it was so big that it could fly, and it was the first time in their lives that they had seen a dwarf, a dwarf riding and riding such a strange creature.
The group showed enough warmth and friendliness when they learned that they had come to protect them, but the dwarves had landed in a strange land, and they were proud to have received such a warm welcome, but they were a little surprised to see the burned village.
Lothar just said that this was the case everywhere the orcs had stepped on.
The reception in the evening was not very rich, but it was not easy to do it in such an environment and conditions.
The evening feast began with a joyful and warm atmosphere of welcome, and everyone sang and danced to welcome the arrival of the Aerospace Force Griffin Knights. This meal of praise and flattery, dwarves also like to be touted, and no one does not like to be praised and sought after.
Catalyzed by alcohol, Lothar introduced the dwarves to the orcs, not only for their brutality but also for their fighting power, so he asked them to help.
The knight at the head was the one who had the hammer in his hand that night, and his name was Furstad. Tonight he is the protagonist.
Vorstad said that we don't know each other, but their strength is still reassuring Lothar, and it is not uncommon for them to see orcs fierce or not.
Lothar tried again to say that the orcs also had great air power, but Furstad was confident that the dwarves were not afraid of them, whatever they were.
Lothar said that some time ago they shot a dragon north of the town, and that the orc's mount was a dragon, and that they shot the dragon and the dragon's body was still there.
Hearing this, Furstad snorted coldly, and said that the dwarves had no fear.
This makes me feel a little hairy when I say this.
I don't know if it's because no one is arrogant in his eyes, and he doesn't know how many pounds and taels he has, or if he really doesn't have any concept of dragons.
I said, those dragons breathe fire. But Furstad drank the beer from his glass and said that if the dragon could squirt him, he would consider being afraid.
Lothar's wish had been fulfilled, and the dwarves were fearless, at least the leader was fearless, and the battle was perhaps somewhat promising.
Ben was going to use the tragedy in the second half of the night to further deepen the atmosphere in front of him, but the dwarves drank too fast and too hard, and they didn't know how good Hillsbrad's beer really was, and soon they got drunk.
I'm firmly against drunk driving, and if there is a real war tomorrow, I hope these guys can drive soberly.
We were woken up early the next morning, and it turned out that Gilneth's fleet had arrived.
When we heard the news, we were surprised that Gilneth had sent ships so quickly, ha! This level of positivity is a bit hard for me to accept.
There were six boats, two of which I felt so familiar!
And when I saw the people coming down from the boat, I really couldn't believe my eyes, I thought I was wrong, I thought I was dreaming.
And the people who came down also saw me.
Tut......
It was only joy, surprise, and disbelief. I never thought it would be them! It's them! Brother who once fought with me, who shed blood!
Ralph, Lawrence, and ...... Green.
Lawrence is fat, Ralph is thin, and Green's belly is big!
I didn't know what to say when they walked up to me with a smile. Just happy, unspeakably happy.
They have all shed their blood for the Stormwind Kingdom, and they are all good.
Lawrence was a big joker, he laughed and said I had more scars on my face and asked if I was still single. Ha, that guy has never been in shape, and although he was hurt by me, I suddenly felt very happy. When I saw them, I felt that I had a place to belong, and I was not alone.
They opened a warehouse in Gilneth to pull goods and deliver goods to people, and they couldn't do big business, so they could only do some hard work. It is a little bit of goods to ensure the harvest in drought and flood, and it can't make a lot of money, but life is also nourishing.
Lawrence's home was originally in Lordaeron, but he brought his daughter and wife with him after Gilneth settled down.
He used to be a prodigal son, the kind of man who didn't touch a leaf among the flowers. But when I saw him again, I realized that he had grown up, no longer the playful child, no longer the amorous prodigal son.
I asked him why he came, and he said that when I went to Kul Tiras some time ago, I heard that the orcs were about to be defeated, and the Alliance army was gathering to start a major counteroffensive.
I said what does that have to do with you, you just take good care of your family at home.
Ralph said he wanted to see if I was still alive.
He made me laugh at what he said, but suddenly I wanted to cry again.
It turns out that there are still people in this world who remember me!
They were also very emotional, because we started from here back then. It used to be a bustling place, but now it's in ruins.
A day later, a ship came to report that the navy of Kurtilas had entered the waters of the South China Sea. We're ready to go.
Lothar didn't want me to board the boat, but the old man didn't worry about me, saying he was afraid that I would choke on the water. Hehe!
When I got on the boat again, I was in a trance, and suddenly many things from the past came back to me. Green was at the helm, Ralph was right next to me, and Lawrence was chirping...... And the kid who always doesn't like to talk......
His name is Gage.
Killed by an ogre with a fireball.
Yes...... I'm missing them a little.
The griffin knight flew into the sky, and all the crew members stared at the sky curiously at the sight. For the people of Gilney, these twenty or so griffon knights were enough to keep them happy, but the huge naval fleet of Kurtilas didn't know what to think when they saw these twenty or so griffon knights.
We caught up with the fleet of Kurtilas on the island of Zuldere, and the knights took off from our ships and flew towards the fleet. I would also like to warn Furstad not to worry, those people are stimulated! I'm afraid something will happen!
As a result, the guy flew away with a flap of his wings on the griffin.
But it turned out that I was overthinking. Furstad told me that they flew over the fleet in a formation in the sky, and they all shouted and began to cheer and applaud.
But when I inquired about it later, they said that when they heard someone shouting that cavalry was coming, their souls would fly with fear. They were just about to prepare their bows and arrows when they were told they weren't orcs. It wasn't until the dwarves drove their griffons overhead, circled a few times, and were recognized by everyone, that they put their hearts back.
I asked them if they were happy to see the griffin knights. Some people say it's fun, it's weird, it's fun. Some people say it's okay, but some people are not very happy, they feel that there are too few people.
The Gilneys had been following the Kul Tiras not far behind, and Ralph told me that they had volunteered to fight, but had to be commanded. I asked him who was commanding the battle this time, and he said it was Lord Darius Crowley.
After the island of Dazuldre, the fleet rested for the night. Departing early tomorrow morning, we will enter the waters of the Kingdom of Stormgard at noon.
I thought it would be a peaceful night, but while I was drinking and chatting on the deck, I noticed a griffon descending from the sky and landing directly on Lord Crowley's flagship. Immediately after that, the alarm bell sounded, and the horn of departure was sounded.
What happened in the middle of the night? We looked around in confusion, but lowered the sails in obedience. In the distance, the fleet of Kul Tiras moved, and it was estimated that it was a major discovery. Suddenly, a bad premonition enveloped me.
Gilneth's fleet moved slowly, and Lord Crowley's flagship kept a relatively low speed. I asked them if they had ever fought with him, and Ralph said they hadn't fought in years. I asked him if he could still do it? He said of course it was fine! How can you forget the old business of eating.
Our boat had been following us for about two hours, and suddenly I felt a slight flash in front of us!
I thought I was wrong, but when I looked closely, how could I be wrong about the light of the dark sea and the dark sky!
Suddenly there was another flash!
I thought to myself, all the ships are attacking, this is the navy that has encountered the orcs!
But is it a dragon that flashes in the sky?
