Volume 5 The Return of the King 135 After the Wolf Plague
"Have you investigated?"
"Who's being investigated?"
"When did she die?"
"Shortly after I was bitten." His brow furrowed.
"You mean someone did it on purpose?"
"Or else?"
"Have you examined her body?"
"Check? Hum! He snorted angrily, "No! ”
Why don't you check this silly beep question I wouldn't ask, "What about your child?" ”
"The child is still young." "Then he contracted the disease and died," he said. ”
"They don't convert children?"
"The child is too young to be transformed." He said. "And the transformation doesn't seem to be ripe, I remember telling you that, didn't I? Even adults have a certain chance of failing. ”
I nodded, "Then you do...... Miserable enough. ”
He shook his head gently, "I...... Wanted to get out of here. ”
"Where are you going?"
"Go...... A place where no one has found me, at least a place where there are no werewolves. ”
"There are no good places in the north for you to go." I say.
"What do you mean?"
"All the places in Lordaeron in the North are not suitable for you to live in right now, even if you are now in the form of a werewolf." I said, "The undead scourge in the north is raging, the undead scourge that fought with you back then, and now they are back, even the forsaken...... Even those who you used as food have suffered because of the return of the undead Scourge. ”
"So Lordaeron is not suitable for you to survive, and the territory of the elves doesn't even think about it, it's a question of whether you can make it there alive." I looked into his slightly surprised eyes and said, "If you leave here and go to the east......," I shook my head, "I advise you not to go either, it's also a war zone now, and the humans, the undead, the mad humans, the forsaken are all fighting over that land, the same as Lordaeron." ”
"What...... Meaning? He didn't understand.
"There are some people in the human race who have become less normal because of the plague, and if you are captured by them, it will not end up better than if you are captured by your companions." I say.
"Who are they?"
"Scarlet Crusaders." I say. He shook his head, apparently unaware of this.
"Stormgard doesn't have to go either, there...... It's not peaceful now, and it may be even less peaceful in the future. "I said." So I suggest you go to the south. ”
"Where are you going?" He asked.
"What do you want to do?" I glanced at him.
"I'm just asking."
"I can give you a few options. One is to go to Minahill Port, which is...... A human harbor near the Dwarven Territory, formerly part of the Kingdom of Lordaeron, is now a free port, or you can go to ...... Further south. ”
"I don't know what that place is."
"Take a boat, depart from Nanhai Town, Nanhai Town you know."
He grimaced, then he nodded deeply, "Thank you, I see." ”
Looking at him like that, I said, "Then you can come with me!" I'm going there anyway. ”
This guy named James is actually quite a good guy, and during the time I was with him, I felt that he was more realistic, although his legs and feet were really bad, but he didn't have the slightest ...... because of this Slackness or dependence. He's always positive in everything, and he's willing to take on more things, and although he can't do a lot of things, I can tell he's trying not to trouble me.
Of course, the reason he is doing this now may be that only I can take him to a safe place, and now that only I can get him food, he may really have a hard time surviving without me. Maybe these thoughts are my villain's heart, but it can't be said that there is no such situation in it at all! But I prefer to believe that he is a real person.
Along the way, he told me more about Arugao, saying that Arugao created more werewolves, and in the process he also took in a lot of exiled magicians who escaped from Dalaran, some of them were his friends, some were friends of his friends, but most of them were magician apprentices, and he had never met a higher level magician than him anyway.
He tried to convince the apprentices of himself, and then he made a series of personality cults in an attempt to get them to agree with obedience. It's not easy to say this kind of thing, but he not only did it, but he did it, although it was temporary.
The magician apprentices who were transformed into werewolves possessed far more magical abilities than ordinary werewolves, and some of them were as fearful as the original peasants, but the power and speed that came with it caused some of them to fall before Arugao first. These apprentices of the magicians who had benefited from Dalaran became the sons of Arugao who were even more powerful than the peasants. Then the group of guys who became Arugao's right-hand men began to help Arugao convert more people and control more werewolves.
People's desires are endless, and people are different from each other, and their ideas are very different. There are some people who become Arugao's minions and then obey Arugao, but there are some who disobey him, and at some point they will defect or leave without saying goodbye.
At first, Arugao didn't seem to care much about this situation, but gradually when the number of people who left him began to increase, he finally lost his kindness, and he began to crusade and hunt down the defecting werewolves. And since those guys who set up their own doors can choose to defect, they will definitely not be arrested, so there is an extremely serious split within the werewolf.
It is said that the house leak happened to rain overnight, and after the gradual influx of crazy werewolves, King Greymane found that the territory outside his Great Wall seemed to be lost forever, so Arugao was naturally extremely severely criticized by the upper nobles, and all kinds of pressure and accusations followed, and Arugao, who was supposed to behave in front of the king and then wanted to soar on his own, suddenly changed from a heroic model and patriot to a chaotic maker and conspirator.
The hat can be buttoned casually, but in the end, even if he is wronged, the person who wronged him can say in a chic manner that as a loyal minister, he has the right and duty to doubt it, and their doubts are also for the country and the people, not because of themselves or anything else.
A large number of refugees began to pour towards the Great Wall, and what really caused the king to completely lose patience with Arugao was that the envoy sent by the king was never heard from, and no one knew where he went.
Later, it was speculated that the messenger died on the way and was eaten by werewolves. The king ordered Arugao to give him an explanation, but by this time Arugao could no longer control the werewolves, and the werewolves began to attack the farms and towns and the people outside more and more brazenly. This led to more people falling into panic, and because some people could become werewolves or humans, the king ordered the Great Wall to be closed completely and indefinitely, and even more denied access to anyone outside the Wall.
The king also discovered the problem of people who had been terrified by the plague because they could not get shelter, so he sent soldiers to intercept those who had fled, captured them all, and then set up more refugee camps under the Great Wall to accommodate these fleeers, so that they could establish villages here to cultivate farmland.
And the blamed Arugao was also very angry, he directly vented his anger on some innocent people, and his most secret blood-toothed werewolf cruelly chose to slaughter the village and slaughter the city, but those guys later began to disobey Arugao's words more and more, and even launched a bloody attack in the castle of Sivalen.
Lord Sivalen was wounded in the riot and died shortly after, leaving the castle with only ghosts but werewolves. It was then that the castle became truly haunted, and even during the day it was easy to see wandering weeping and mourning ghosts.
Later, Arugao seems to have risen several levels in his werewolf research, and he can not only transform werewolves, but also conjure many werewolves out of thin air.
At first, he used the iron ropes and iron shackles used to tie slaves, but as more and more werewolves he summoned out of thin air, his shackles could no longer lock those werewolves, and those werewolves could easily tear off those ordinary chains, even if those chains were so thick that ordinary people could never open them.
It is said that he used an enchanted shackle, which was created with the help of a werewolf named Wolgan, who was also a blood-toothed werewolf. When he was able to master the werewolves, Arugao became even more insane, and he often told us to get revenge! Be sure to get revenge!
Later, a group of werewolves called the Moonfury Werewolves appeared among the werewolves gathered outside, and it is said that most of these werewolves were turned into magician apprentices of Dalaran, so most of these werewolves can do magic, and the relationship between this group and Arugao has always been complicated.
He said that werewolves are divided into types, and the hair on their bodies determines what kind of species they belong to and what kind of race they belong to.
The black werewolf is the weakest of all werewolves, that is, the werewolf with black hair is the weakest, and then the white, the more white on the body, the stronger and more ruthless, especially the werewolf with red eyes and white is the most ruthless of all werewolves, that is, the blood-toothed werewolf.
Later, the king thought that the people in the Great Wall could be saved from this disaster by closing the door, but it is said that unfortunately a group of people who worshipped werewolves and the power of werewolves appeared in the city, and then gradually developed into an organization called "Wolf Worship".
Later, it was said that the king had begun to hunt for werewolves, whether it was inside the city or outside the city, and James didn't know much about the situation in the city, but outside the city said that it was to hunt for werewolves, but the human soldiers did not dare to approach the territory of the werewolves at all, which also led to more and more werewolves gathering south, where there was more food, especially people.
And James didn't know why werewolves couldn't turn into undead, he was originally just a farmer, and I'm sure he didn't know.
