Volume 5 The Return of the King 118 Ten Days of Lordaeron
Both minotaurs walked out of the portal with a hint of panic on their faces, and I understand that.
"Welcome to our kingdom." I say.
A bull, a cow, a black cow, a white cow, the two cows are quite compatible.
The place where we appeared was not underground but aboveground, in the circle left behind by the Lordaeron City Wizards' Guild. They looked back at the portal, and there was no sign of it except for the chaotic blue.
They looked around for a moment, and the black bull named Golm said, "This is your kingdom?" ”
I nodded, "I'll show you the city that was destroyed by the Scourge of the Dead. Standing by the window of the Mage's Tower, I pointed outside, "Look, this is it." ”
The two cows stood by the window and looked out, their expressions showing their state of mind without reservation.
"This was originally the largest city in the kingdom of men." I said, "There used to be a million people here. ”
"But...... In the face of the Scourge, there is no power to parry at all. I added.
"Take us down." Golm said.
This depression is even worse in the streets, where houses have collapsed, ruins and ruins are everywhere, there are hardly any decent houses to be seen, and the streets that have long been overgrown with weeds are hard to imagine that this is once the greatest city of mankind.
At this time, a group of people came out of the ruins next to them, and the two cows instantly faced the enemy. I stepped forward and waved, "I'm Bill, the Queen's warrior, I'm back with my allies, hurry up and report it, and ...... Let Varimatas dodge it. ”
The man leading the group looked at me, then turned to the person next to him and said a word, and the soldier turned and ran. And the rest became the ones who showed us the way.
"Don't worry, they're all the Queen's guards." I told them not to worry.
After a great round around the city, I guessed that the queen was ready, so I led them to the queen's place, and the herald who came said not to go underground for the time being, but to meet them at the old palace.
After arriving at the old palace, guards had been arranged on both sides of the road, and although the arrangement was hasty, it was good. At least their costumes are not torn.
Entering the main hall, Queen Sylvanas sat in the seat where Terenus had sat before his death. I bowed to the Queen, who nodded, and I turned to the two Minotaurs and said, "This is our Queen, Sylvanas Windranger. ”
After the two of them saluted the queen, I said, "These two are my allies I brought back from the Western world, this black one is called Golm Terror Totem, a member of the Minotaur Terror Totem Clan. This white one's name is Mora Rune Totem, and she is a member of the Rune Totem Clan. The two of them came on behalf of the two clans...... Look at the situation on our side. ”
Sylvanas's face sank as she looked at the two of them and said, "This is the ally you found?" ”
"For the time being, yes." I said, "If we can successfully engage with them, it will be more likely to expand our allies in the future." ”
The queen looked at me, "They look strong. ”
"Yes, they are taller and stronger than orcs, but they are also more ...... Kind. I said.
"You tell them...... I welcome them. ”
After some politeness, I explained their intentions, and Sylvanas told them about our situation. I knew I was ready to take them to the front, so I decided to take them around and to the front line after getting the queen's approval.
The first place to take them was Brill, a larger place outside of Lordaeron's Dungeon, where they might be more receptive to the world of the Forsaken than ...... to the underground.
When we arrived in Brill, everything was still in order, and everyone did whatever they had to do, so I took them on a tour of Brill's spinning and winemaking workshops, and took them to the fields. The two minotaurs were shocked by our behavior, and as they left Brill, Jasmine told me that she had thought that the Forsaken would be like a scarecrow in the field, without eating anything, without doing anything, and that it didn't matter if they were sloppy. But after visiting here, her impression of us has changed a lot.
Seeing this, I struck while the iron was hot and said: "No one likes it, and no one wants their face to become a dead man's face, and their body is routing and rotting, although most of the forsaken are dead, and they have no heartbeat of the living, but their souls, the most basic souls of human beings, are still there." ”
"There's no one who doesn't want to be good, there's no one who doesn't love beauty, and they can indeed sink into real zombie carrion, but that's not what the Forsaken really want, and it's not what Queen Sylvanas wants." I said, "We are dignified too." ”
After saying that, Golm asked a question, he wanted to see how our people came back to life.
I looked him in the eye and agreed without hesitation, and I said that I would allow them to see how the dead were raised. However, when we arrived at Rose Castle in Bedgrettshire, which was once the largest source of soldiers, we were told that there were no corpses to be resurrected, which meant that there were no more soldiers to replenish.
Although the expressions on the faces of the two minotaurs were not very convinced, what I could do was to take them to visit the magic circle and the scene of the resurrection ceremony, and because they really couldn't find the corpses, they would stop there, but when they saw that there were almost skeletons in our soldiers, and there were no organs in the abdominal cavity, only skeletons left, and they chose to believe that I could indeed resurrect the dead.
Leaving Rose Castle, now known as Death Knell, I wanted to take them to the front, but I pinched the time and realized that it might not be enough, so I chose to take them to see the Scarlet Crusaders.
Although they won't see the real Scourge of the Undead, the Scarlet Crusaders won't disappoint them either.
There are several farms to the west of Deathknell, which are now completely occupied by the Scarlet Crusaders, and the Forsaken have all been driven out.
I also mobilized a team of 100 people in Deathstroke to protect them for safety, and it was very strange when they saw these people behind them, and I said that what I was going to see next was dangerous!
Sure enough, at Soridan Farm, northwest of Deathknell, we saw an organized group of Scarlet Crusaders, and they had made their home there, with estates, farms, farmhouses, and mills.
When I saw them, I said to them, "That's what we should be like when we were alive." ”
The two of them looked a little solemn, and they asked if they could get closer, and I immediately objected and got closer...... It's a bit dangerous!
They said the men did not appear to be aggressive. I shook my head, if they saw us, they would not hesitate to raise their swords, and would absolutely chase after us until they killed us all. If you don't have to, you'd better go and ask the resurrected guys around us than risk it yourself.
The two fellows listened to each other, so we turned around and went back, and when we got to Brill I said you should go and investigate, and ask you what you want to ask, what you are wondering about.
These two were not stupid, after all, they didn't understand our words, so they just smiled and asked us to take them to meet the soldiers of the Scourge of the Dead. After listening to Brill's scout report, we chose to go to the territory of the Agamander family in the north, and the scout said that it was now a complete ghost place. And I told them to get ready for battle, for it was more dangerous than the Scarlet Crusaders.
The territory of Agamandel is not far from us, and from here we have plenty of time to return if nothing else. After wrapping up the situation with the two minotaurs, the two guys were attracted by my introduction.
Hum! I don't guarantee they're intact!
