Volume 5 Return of the King 99 Demon Phantom
Two young girls looked at me, one with scrutiny in their eyes and the other with a hint of friendliness. I don't have to say anything, I know what they want to say by their expressions. And as soon as they opened their mouths, they also verified my judgment, and it was indeed Abydis's business. But they told me they wanted me to rot it in my stomach and not talk about it.
I nodded in agreement. But despite my assurances, the expressions on the faces of these two people could be seen to be uneasy. Although the expressions of these two young girls made me feel very uncomfortable, and I didn't look down on their immature behavior at all, but they became the chief prosecutor at a young age, and they had great power in their hands, so they would be immature if they were immature.
When I asked where Darion was, they immediately called Darion, the guy was wounded, and he had a shy look on his face when he saw the two girls, and when he saw that I was here, he just looked at me and lowered his eyelids.
It would be a shame to be able to bring him in this way, but to let us meet like this instead of letting me go to him shows the thoughtfulness of the girl named Whitemayne.
Really...... Enough eyes!
I was relieved to see that he was still alive and that the injury wasn't very serious, and I didn't talk to him after seeing him. And when Whitemane asked me in front of us why I cared so much about him, I said that it was only because my father was my best friend to me, and that I had an obligation to take care of him since his father was dead.
I didn't understand what Whitemayne's slightly contemptuous look meant, but she didn't seem to like the Darion man. I didn't expect this, but it had happened, and our relationship was already known to her.
Since the fall of the Hearthdale, the forces in the city have been scattered, and the situation is still very unoptimistic, the army led by Saidan Dasohan has now withdrawn to the valley but is not yet contactable, and the frightened refugees are now in urgent need of relocation. And the city is now a mess, and they have to rush back immediately to clean up the battlefield and rebuild the city defenses, and if the enemy invades again, they are ready to abandon this place and flee.
In order to stabilize the morale of the army, regroup the army, and stimulate the fighting spirit, Brigitte delivered a speech, in which she denounced the heinous evil deeds of the undead natural disasters, mourned the people and soldiers who died in battle, praised the excellent qualities of the crusaders who fought bravely to defend their homeland and people, and then announced the heroic sacrifice of the general to defend the people.
Ah! Really, sometimes actions do move people, but words seem to be stronger. Activists are great, but the role of orators is in some ways more important than those who can only act.
I'm really impressed with this girl.
This impassioned, this tear-jerking made the people below grief and indignation, who shouted Long live the Crusaders, and then roared with blood and blood. It was then that Miss Brigitte Abydis took over her father's scepter and became the new commander of the Scarlet Crusade.
Probably because of the dispersion of the forces, the undead scourge rushed into the valley and the overwhelming horror of the previous attack disappeared, and in front of the inspired Scarlet Crusaders, they were literally reduced to ashes and fertilizer to the earth.
After three consecutive victories, Brigitte asked her to return to the city, and she returned to the city with the refugees and the army. The Saidan Ministry, who had already been contacted, continued to sweep up the remnants of the undead in the valley. Make sure you don't miss one.
Although the refugees return to the city and are immersed in great grief, grief can easily be stirred into anger and strength. And Brigitte did this very well, maybe it was all because of the women, what she said made the women really cry. She does not rest at all, but works with her people and rebuilds their homes together. This makes her reputation very, very good!
And the propagandists under her command are really good at propagandizing, and the moisturizing and silent praise makes people know that the good of this new general is not very deliberate, and how Brigitte understands the soldiers, and how to care for the old and young, women and children.
I really have to applaud her. And the little tail behind her, Tyran Fordin, was as docile as that.
I almost laughed when Arellas Honoha appeared in front of me. I was glad he was alive, and he didn't show much joy on his face when he saw me with these guys, he just glanced at me.
The night he returned, I went to his house to find him, and he leaned back in his chair and tilted his head to look at me, "I thought you were dead." ”
"Don't say that all the time, brother." I say.
"Were you there when Abydis died?" He asked me.
"I'm here, and he's dead when I see him." I said, "But I took care of him when he turned into a zombie." ”
"Does Brigitte know about this?"
"Yes."
"You'd better be careful with those guys." "Some of these guys are quite extreme," he said. ”
"What do you mean?"
"Do you know the magician named Duane?" "He has a lot of opinions about us people," he said. ”
"How?"
"Those who are not of my race will have different hearts." He said.
"What did he say?"
"Hmm." Huoye snorted, "And it's not unusual that these people have some ulterior secrets behind them. ”
"What else do you know?"
He shook his head, "If you want to deal with them, keep an eye on them, they hurt people quietly." ”
"So serious?"
"It's more serious than that." He said. "Rule this thing...... There are a lot of things that can't be put on the table. He said softly.
"So subtle?"
"I noticed something strange when I was cleaning the battlefield today." He looked at me and said.
"You're cleaning up the battlefield?"
"There are some places in the city that are polluted, and ordinary soldiers can't get close, so we can only come." "But in the process of cleaning, I found traces of magic," he said. ”
"Isn't that normal? Those lichs ......"
"Not a lich." He interrupted me, "I know the traces left by the spell unleashed by the lich. He leaned back in his chair and shook his head slightly, and said with a serious look: "I've seen those spells, they are evil spells!" ”
"Demons!" I blurted out.
"Shhhh He sat up straight from his chair, "Be quiet!" ”
"Are you sure?"
"Sure." He snorted and slumped back into his chair. "I'm so sure, I'll never forget this energy for the rest of my life."
"Where?"
"In some houses in the city." He said.
"Some? What do you call in some houses? How much? ”
"It's not a lot, but it's relatively concentrated, and the houses with traces of evil energy and magic are not far away." He said.
"So there are demons in the city." I say.
"So to speak."
"Unbelievable!" I shook my head, "This ...... Impossible! ”
"I thought I was wrong, but it was."
"Does Duane know?"
"Of course he needs to know." I said, "If you find out about this kind of thing, you must report it, because this kind of thing can't be covered, and if I hide it, it will be very troublesome for me." ”
I nodded in agreement.
"But Duane won't let anyone mention it." He tilted his head and looked at me. "It's a secret."
I was dumbfounded.
"In addition, there is another incident that confirms this view, that is, the corpses of two crusaders have shrunk undecently, that is, they have been sucked dry." He said.
"What does it mean to be sucked dry."
"Their flesh has shrunk completely, leaving only skin and bones, like roasted jerky, the kind of dried corpses." He sighed softly, "This is definitely not something that the lichs can do. ”
"How do you know?"
"This spell is necromancy, but ...... The traces of magic left on it are evil magic. He paused, "And can you imagine splitting the abomination in two?" ”
"I don't understand what it means."
"It's to cut the abomination in half from beginning to end." He spoke the serious words softly.
"I can't!" I lowered my voice in surprise.
"I saw it with my own eyes!" He said, "What a lot of power that must be!" It's a completely unimaginable force! No one, no undead can do it. ”
"The devil did it!"
"It must have been the devil's doing." "And there were bloody footprints in some places," he said. He pointed down with his eyes. It was not a human footprint, nor an abomination, but ...... Huge hoof prints. ”
He pouted, "I've never seen footprints like that. ”
"Hoof prints...... I've seen it. "I said." How big is a hoof print? ”
Huoye stretched out his hand and gestured, "It's so big." ”
"That's it." I said, "There's a demon called the Dreadlord who is very tall, and that's about that big in terms of proportions. ”
"It's really a demon......" he sighed. Could it be the devil helping us? ”
"Hah!" I laughed, "What do you think?" Demon ......" I shook my head, "Demons are very evil, when Arthas broke through Dalaran and summoned demons, he followed the demons to the Western Continent, I am still familiar with these things, please rest assured, these guys don't have a good eye." ”
"But these traces ......," he said, "why are they here?" ”
"I don't know."
"By the way......" he looked up, "do you remember what I told you...... Did Prince Kael'thas meet a key person? ”
"Yes, I was in a hurry at the time, and I forgot about it later." I say.
"The guy who came here is said to have huge wings and two huge horns on his head, and his feet are ...... Hoof! ”
