Chapter 147: Ash Valley
While coming to their conclusions, both Sal and Gianna told their respective advisors, "If you're Michaela, where would you go next?" ”
Both Itreig and Archmage Twash came to the same conclusion:
"If I'm Michaela, then after I'm done dealing with the Northern Castle, I'll go north to Jingfang City and take the merchant ship there to the Treasure Bay at the southern tip of the Eastern Continent, and then find a way to enter the territory of the Human Alliance."
Yes, if Michaela wants to sow discord between the Alliance and the Horde, the simplest and most direct means is to rush into the territory of the Alliance as a member of the tribe and kill them, and at that time, no one can stop the war!
In terms of strength, Michaela can do it, and what is even more scary is that Michaela's style of acting is very murderous and does not leave a living mouth!
Think about it, if the Coalition towns of Twilight Forest, Wild West, Elwyn Forest, or Red Ridge Mountain were slaughtered, the Alliance's anger would never have subsided, and the rest would be to fuck him.
No, it can't be like this!
The hard-won peace of Azeroth must not be in vain!
At this moment, both Thrall and Gianna commanded to Itreig and Archmage Tvosh, respectively:
"I'm afraid it's too late to go to Jingya City to chase Michaela now, he must have boarded the merchant ship heading to Treasure Bay, so immediately contact the people in Treasure Bay and ask them to stop Michaela!"
At the end, Sal did not forget to add: "Wait, Itreig, just in case, prepare to mobilize an army of 10,000." ”
"Mobilize the army?"
Itreg asked, "Why?" Suddenly mobilizing the army without a valid reason will make others think that we want to go to war. ”
"I know, so I'm only going to mobilize 10,000 troops."
Thrall rolled his eyes before replying, "Orgrimmar's anniversary is coming, and this time I plan to hold a military parade, and I will use the huge military parade as a reason. ”
"Yes!"
Itrieg immediately took the order and left.
So what is our protagonist doing?
Of course he slept in an inn at a crossroads!
What alliance tribe, at least Michaela thinks it has nothing to do with her, as long as she quickly completes the task of paying off the debt of the damn evil god, then she can do whatever she wants.
In this way, there was no word all night, at least Michaela slept soundly, and the next morning, after washing, Michaela took Maleia all the way north, along the road to the Gray Valley.
Isn't it boring and boring to walk and walk all the way like this?
Don't worry, the fun is here!
Just as Michaela and her party reached the north of the crossroads, and the gate to the Ashen Valley was already visible, Marlenia noticed that there seemed to be a tribal barracks on the west side of the road, where war songs shook the sky and there seemed to be a pre-war speech.
"What is that place?" Marlenia couldn't help but ask.
"That location is ......"
Michaela is also reminiscing about the history of the game and wants to find out. As a result, it was Torina who reminded:
"Michaela, I've checked the game map, and that location should be the entrance to Warsong Canyon."
"Oh, yes!"
Michaela patted her head and remembered, and immediately said to Maleia: "It should be the entrance to the Warsong Canyon, and the army to drill should be the Warsong Clan of the tribe." ”
Malenia asked curiously, "Warsong Clan?" Sounds like they're pretty good at fighting. ”
"Of course you can."
Michaela smiled and said, "The Warsong Clan has produced heroes like Gromash Hellroar (Old Roar). ”
Malenia then asked, "So Warsong Canyon is the territory of the Warsong Clan?" ”
"Hmmm......"
Michaela shook her head and said, "Unfortunately, this is not the case, Warsong Canyon is a battlefield, the Warsong Clan is the Horde's participating troops, and the Alliance's participating troops are the Silver Wing Sentinels from the Night Elves. ”
Maleia let out an "oh" and then said, "Aren't they boring to be fighting every day?" ”
Bored......
Michaela didn't know how to answer.
According to the official version of the World of Warcraft game, the Warsong Clan has always occupied the Ash Valley to cut down important tree resources, but the Night Elves, who have been living in symbiosis with the forest, sent the Silver Wing Sentinels to fight them in order to recapture the Ash Valley and prevent the tribe from continuing to cut down the forest, with the purpose of expelling them.
But in fact, according to the game map, it will be found that the actual location of the so-called Warsong Canyon is in the southern part of the Ashenvale, and half of the southern part is still within the range of the rated land, which belongs to the junction of the two maps.
So the question arises, if the Silverwing Sentinels want to banish the Warsong Clan from Ashenvale, then why don't they just march east and take down the Broken Wood Outpost and Warsong Lumber Yard in Ashenvale, where the tribe is located?
Is it boring to spend your troops in the fruitless Battle Song Canyon every day?
"Look, it's time for me to be too Shi Ji (self-styled) again!"
Lo and behold, Tolina is popping up again!
"The so-called Warsong Canyon is actually a place for the game of interests between the tribe and the Night Elves, after all, it is impossible to reach any results based on the negotiation on the lips alone, and the real conclusion must be drawn by relying on the victory or defeat on the battlefield!"
One thing to say, Tolina's conclusion is not unreasonable.
For the big powers, it is a full-scale war to end up in person, but to play the game of interests through a controllable small-scale war is the least costly feasible plan, and if you care about the international politics of the earth, you will definitely be no stranger to such means, and many major powers are using them.
Thinking of this, Michaela couldn't help but praise Tolina: "You kid is so good, you can think of so many things!" ”
Tolina was not modest, puffed up her flat chest, and said confidently: "Hehe, Michaela, you know how good I am!" ”
"Okay, okay, you're the best, haha."
While talking and laughing, Michaela and his party came to the north gate of the barren land, and after completing the simple formalities, Michaela and the others left the barren land and officially set foot on the land of the gray valley.
As soon as she arrived in Ashenvale, Maleia immediately sensed something different.
If the barren land is the dry and waterless loess earth, then the gray valley is a lush rainforest area everywhere, with all kinds of vines and flowers and trees looking up. The plants in Azeroth are different from Earth, and Michaela doesn't know how these trees grew so tall.
In short, even the air smells of plants in the gray valley, which is much better than the barren land.
"I love it here."
Marlenia's spirits were also lifted, and she took the initiative to slow down the reins of the frostwolf mount, wanting to enjoy the beautiful scenery along the way, Michaela naturally slowed down the speed of the chocobo mount, and slowly moved behind her sister.
"Brother, can we come to Ash Valley more in the future?"
It was impossible for Michaela to refuse, "No problem, just find a place to stay here." ”
"Thorn-la"
But at this moment, a strange movement suddenly came from the forest on the right.
"Be careful."
Michaela immediately put away her mount, and the palm of her right hand was already on fire, and Maleia also put away her mount, and while her legs landed on the ground, her right steel prosthesis stretched forward, and the long sword popped out under the flip of the mechanism and held it in her hand.
The biggest difference between the Ashen Valley and the Barren Land is not actually the climate, but its belonging, the Ashen Valley is not a tribal territory, but a territory that is being contested, and this place may encounter an alliance!
Of course, Michaela can speak the language of the Alliance, but the Alliance Dog may not be willing to talk to your tribe pig, and it is possible to meet and fight, so it is never wrong to be prepared.
However, when the commotion came out of the woods, both Michaela and Malenia breathed a sigh of relief.
Torina even said, "What, it's just a bear." ”
Yes, it's just a bear, and the gray valley is rich in grizzly bears, so it's not strange to see them in the forest, but this bear seems to be hungry.
"Roar!"
The grizzly bear roared and pounced on the "food" in front of it, but the moment it opened its mouth, a long sword plunged straight into its mouth!
"Poof......
"Oh!"
The battle was over, and because of the proximity, Michaela was splashed in the face with bear blood, and Malenia was even worse, her entire dress was stained red......
"Malenia."
Michaela wiped her face and said to her sister, "Maybe you can try to knock it unconscious first." ”
Malenia, who put away her sword, also found a problem, she was splattered with blood, how could she travel with blood?
"I'm sorry, brother." Knowing that her actions were too reckless, Malenia immediately apologized.
"It's okay."
"It's common for us to kill a few beasts when we're out and about, and the key is not to splash our blood on ourselves," Michaela said. ”
"Well, brother, I see." Maleia nodded obediently.
Michaela then said, "And we are not without a remedy. ”
As she spoke, Michaela pointed in the direction of the other side of the road, and Maleia saw that there was a lake!
"It's Falling Star Lake!" Torina said.
The lake of the Falling Star Lake is crystal clear, like the stars falling, and it is indeed a good place, so the Michaela brothers and sisters jumped directly into the lake to bathe?
Come on, Michaela and Malenia won't do that kind of immoral thing to pollute the river!
They took off their dirty clothes, put on spare clothes, and washed their blood from a wooden basin (which Orgrimmar had bought) with water.
It's called civilization, you know!
What?
A glamorous scene?
This must be there, after all, if you want to change your clothes, you have to take them off first, and the wild is not a bathhouse, so there is nothing to cover you from.
But Malenia didn't care......
Ahem!
Straight to the point.
Michaela and his party were about to get back on the road when Tolina in his head suddenly shouted:
"Michaela, be careful!"
Michaela immediately became alert, her eyes scanned the surroundings like a torch, and she quickly saw a familiar figure in sight.
"Tessa!"
Yes, the female orc Tessa appeared in front of them for the third time, and she had experienced it before, whether it was Michaela or Malenia, they all had extremely huge doubts about the arrival of this person, and their originally relaxed expressions immediately became nervous.
"Michaela, Malenia, we're meeting again."
Tessa put on the tone of an old friend, looked at the two in front of her and said, "Am I not the right time to appear?" ”
Michaela didn't want to talk to her too much, this woman was definitely eccentric, so he spoke:
"Tessa, we're on our way, I'm afraid we won't have time to ......"
"No, no, no, no!"
Tessa waved her hand, cracked her mouth into a weird smile, and said, "You're going to help me, right?" ”
