Chapter 735: Sweet Bait

Although Azeroth is barely at peace today, the dangers buried under the table have long been piled up.

The Shadow Realm, the Burning Legion, and the Old Gods are all eyeing this world, and the three old 6s seem to have some secret connections with each other, and Sarean can't figure out who is really cooperating with whom, and who is playing the infernal affairs of deceit.

Or...... None of the three parties fully trusted either side and maintained a certain degree of cooperation while being wary of each other?

"Hiss~"

The thought of this gave Salian a headache.

Azeroth is like a warehouse full of barrels of explosives, and the surface is still calm, if someone throws a little spark into the warehouse......

Explosives buried in the shadows will be completely ignited.

Pinching the bridge of his nose for a while, Sarean forced himself to stop thinking and concentrate on dealing with the looming crisis first.

"I don't know if Valera and Stella Goussa are going well......"

……

After splitting up with Saljan and Onexia, Stellagossa reverted to dragon form, carrying Valera and Vincina with the others.

Vesina and Polva had never experienced a dragon flight, and when Stellagossa first took off, they both screamed in panic.

Leaving the ground is very uncomfortable for the Nirub people, who have been dealing with the land all their lives.

Time was urgent, and Valeera couldn't take care of that much.

Under the guidance of Visina, who was gradually calming down, Stellagossa flew at full speed in the vast underground kingdom, and it only took ten minutes to arrive at the agreed rendezvous point with Quel'Salas' reinforcements.

By the time Stellagossa landed at her destination, the patrolling Nirub vigilantes had already begun a standoff with the High Elf reinforcements.

Due to Kael'thas's orders, the command of the front line was handed over to Marquis Sarena Deepshadow, and Bode Lin Yu did not intend to follow the front line to make fun of himself.

And he also has a reasonable reason, Shinsugi Dara still has to be guarded by someone after all, so as not to find that the defense of the Crystal Song Forest is empty, and the Dhakarai trolls and the Iron Legion take advantage of the weakness.

The defenders of the Crystal Song Forest are made up of three different units, the Ranger Force, the Morning Front Legion, and the Magister Force.

The Ranger Force is led by Valilla and Little Star's old friend, Winlesa Windranger.

The commander of the Morning Striker was one of Liadrin's lieutenants, nicknamed Lord Saladre the Pure.

The Magister army is led by an archmage named Selevol.

Valera and Stellagossa were not acquainted with Celewall, and their past dealings with Saladre were only on business.

As soon as they landed, Valera and the others first found their most familiar old friend, Winlesa, and asked her to restrain her subordinates as the agent of the Marquis of Deepshadow, so as not to clash with the Nirubs.

Polva also revealed his nobility, informing the security forces in the name of King Anubaraq that these outsiders were reinforcements with the king's permission.

The two sides persuaded each other, and finally eased the tense atmosphere at the scene.

Knowing that Sarian had temporarily decided to go deep behind enemy lines to investigate information, Winlessa was not surprised at the same time.

Salian is a very active person, and when he thinks of something, he will put it into practice as soon as possible.

"It seems that His Excellency the Marquis has not changed his style of acting because of the promotion of the title."

Faced with Wen Lesa's quip, Valera rolled her eyes angrily: "Do you think he is such an easy person to change his nature?" ”

Wen Lesa spread her hands with a smile: "Just kidding." ”

"Let's get down to business."

Wen Lesa's expression became serious: "Lord Bode Linyu didn't tell us the details, but just asked us to rush to the tunnel under the guidance of Fadore as soon as possible to meet with the Marquis of Deep Shadow and wait for his dispatch. ”

"So, what the hell is going on?"

Valera sighed softly, "It's a long story, I'll explain it to you in detail later." ”

Looking up at Archmage of Celevor and Sarad the Pure, who had been silent, Valilla greeted them politely with a formulaic smile on her face.

"Two, please make your subordinates ready for battle, the situation is urgent, we will rush to the front line immediately to participate in the battle."

Without saying a word, Saladre nodded in agreement, and turned back to issue a new order to the Morning Striker.

Celeval looked at the Elven-speaking Vesina with interest, apparently interested in the life forms of the Nirubs, and the Arcanist's old habit of asking questions had flared up.

Celevor is one of the elders of the Royal Arcane Society of Quel'Salas, and is nominally a subordinate of the archmage Romans, but the two are mostly equal friends and only obey Romans when they are on missions.

After Esshara was released, Romans was finally freed from his nominal title as Councillor Kenrito.

Celewall, who had previously replaced Romans at the headquarters of the Royal Arcane Society, was sent to Shri-Shan Dara to form the Royal Arcane Society branch and oversee all the mages in New Shō Dara City.

Salevor is about the same age as Romans, and neither is young.

can live to this age, his emotional intelligence will obviously not be low.

Noticing Valeera's gaze, Celevor smiled and nodded in return.

"Lady Sangunar, don't be afraid, please give orders, the Magister troops will obey your orders."

Valilla secretly breathed a sigh of relief, fortunately the old mage knows how to be a man, otherwise she would really not be able to shout at this old qualified archmage at will.

"Let's go first, I'll briefly explain the situation on the way."

……

"The Scourge of the Dead?"

On the way to the front of the war, the leaders of the three armies learned the story from Valera and Stellagosa.

Wen Lesa frowned and said, "Ever since I switched to New Shandara, the rangers have been secretly monitoring Icecrown's every move. ”

"It's no wonder we haven't been able to detect the Scourge movement, it turns out that the Lich King let them dig a hole into the ground."

Salevor touched the beard on his chin thoughtfully: "Not long ago, the Royal Arcane Society got a news that the former Kenrito Councillor Kel'thugad traveled thousands of miles to Northrend and accepted the Lich King's invitation to join the Scourge Legion, I wonder if this is true?" ”

Stellagossa did not shy away from saying, "It's true, but it's not our current task. ”

"Kel'thugad has just joined the Scourge Legion, and it's not his turn to plan this operation, it must have been planned by the Lich King a long time ago."

Celevor didn't ask any more questions, smiled and returned the topic to Vali LS Lord Radley is typical military temper, and he asked straight to the point: "So, the enemy is the undead?" Paladins with the power of the Holy Light should be able to play a significant role in the war, how many enemies are there? ”

Valira said with a solemn face: "At least 50,000, and there are many undead Nirubs who are good at fighting underground, so please be vigilant." ”

"50,000 ......"

Saradere frowned slightly: "Our reinforcements add up to only 10,000 people, according to what you said, during the battle, you have to pay attention to the corpses of the undead resurrected from the battlefield, it is not easy to fight." ”

Visina interjected in stumbling elven language, "There are more than 30,000 Eldrunirub troops on the front line, led by His Majesty Anubrak himself, and in terms of the total number of troops, we are not much worse than the undead Scourge. ”

The Scourge likes to use low-level zombies and skeletons to clear the way, using these cannon fodder to drain the enemy's stamina and ammo before committing to the real undead elite to clean up the pieces.

This war has lasted for more than half a month, and the cannon fodder troops prepared by the Scourge Legion have long been exhausted, and the remaining 50,000 troops are all the family funds accumulated by Nao Zu who have been dormant for a long time, mainly the undead Viku and the undead Nilubu who were transformed not long ago.

Long before meeting with Wen Lesa and the others, Valera had arranged for a part of Fadore to rush to the battlefield to reconnoiter the latest information.

Fadore, who can sneak through the ground, is like a fish in water in this underground world, and the reinforcements of the High Elves rushed all the way, and before they reached the battlefield, the Fadore scouts took the first step to bring back the latest situation on the front line.

After hearing the information conveyed by Fadore, Valeera looked clear: "Is it a stalemate...... That's to be expected. ”

The Fadore scout, who had rushed back from the dust, continued to report respectfully: "Although it is a stalemate, due to the disadvantage of troops, Eldrunirub's army has been suppressed by the undead natural disaster. ”

"It was only through King Anubarak's personal efforts on the front line that he managed to maintain the balance of power, but ......"

"There is also a difficult undead spider demon on the side of the Scourge to block Anubrak, it should be Anubrekan who was resurrected by the undead after being killed."

"Is stalemate a disadvantage......

Valera looked at the scout's topographical sketch and fell into deep thought.

"Look at this situation of the undead natural disaster...... We seem to have a chance to raid and break the game? ”

"Could this be a trap deliberately left by the Scourge Legion?"
