Chapter 1115: Garrod's Suspicion
Mathridon is a brave warrior of the Annichland clan, known as the Abyssal Lords, and is only inferior to the race leader Manolos in terms of combat effectiveness.
In the original history, Mathriton was the king of the Outlands before Yin Lidan, and his lair was the long-abandoned Deleni Temple, Carabo.
Under the reign of Maseriton, the Temple of Karabo was renamed the Dark Temple, and it was inhabited by a large number of demons from the Twisted Void.
According to Kudran Brute, who had only recently returned to Azeroth, he had always suspected that the Dark Temple was home to a high-ranking demon of transcendent status.
Unfortunately, due to the lack of troops of the expeditionary force stationed in the Hammer Fortress, the defense was more than enough but not enough to attack, and Kudran's men were never able to go deep into the Dark Temple to gather more detailed information.
Sarren's question caused a big discussion in the barrage.
Some believe that Mathridon had already followed Kazak to the Outlands, but they had a different division of labor.
The proof is the orcs who still occupy the Hellfire Fortress.
In the eyes of most Azeroth, any orc who has been stained with demonic blood can be called an orc.
But in fact, this perception is not accurate.
Unlike the green-skinned orcs who still have a lot of self-sanity, these evil brain-burned creatures have even more eerie dark red skin, which is the after-effect of drinking demonic blood many times.
According to Danas Thorbain, the red-skinned orcs entrenched in the Hellfire Fortress are primarily made up of the Shattered Hand Clan.
The Broken Hand Clan and the Warsong Clan are among the most warlike of the orc tribes.
The Warsong Clan advocates using their strength on the battlefield to achieve the glory they want.
The Shattered Hand Clan, a patchwork of mutilated orcs, is more brutal than the Warsong Clan, and their leader, Kargas Bladefist, is ridiculed as a butcher without honor, even among his own kind.
The birth of the evil orcs came from drinking the demon's blood many times, so the question is, who did the demonic blood that the Broken Hand Clan later drank come from?
Some barrages believe that the source of these orcs is Mathridon.
But there are also those who believe that Maseriton did not arrive in time for the original history, otherwise he would not have sat idly by and watched Kazak defeat the Dark Gate.
Both sides have their own set of theories, and they both sound quite reasonable, and neither of them has been able to convince anyone in a short time.
In the original history, Yin Lidan was able to defeat the mighty Mathridon with the help of Kael'thas, Vasqi, and Akama, who each led their own troops and horses, and thus ascended to the throne of the King of the Outlands.
In this timeline where Sarren is located, Sarjan plans to contact Queen Azhara first, and inform her of the latest research results of Druyin, led by Vandal Deerhelm.
By the way, he entrusted Eshara to send Vasqi to lead a part of the elite Naga to follow Yin Lidan to the Outlands to help.
As for Akama, it's even better to say.
Until Akama's knot is untied, he should not be able to return to the Deleni tribe with confidence.
In this case, it is just right for him to follow Yin Lidan as Sarean's eyeliner.
Even if Yin Lidan could guess who was behind Akama, with his character, he probably wouldn't care, as long as Akama and his Grey Tongue Death Oath could reflect their worth.
However, the blood elves of the original history were destined to be unable to follow Yin Lidan to Draenor, and instead of the Scourge Legion after the change of day.
Even if the Maghan orcs and the Alliance forces left behind in Draenor were removed, Yin Lidan's forces under his command when attacking the Dark Temple would not be weaker than in the original history, and might even be stronger.
If Mathridon was crouching in the Dark Temple, with the power that Yin Lidan could grasp at that time, it should not be a problem to take down this powerful Abyss Lord.
Provided, of course, that Sarren's plan goes as smoothly as expected.
……
As Saljan and Valera hurried over the Ashen Valley toward Durotar, the battle on the front lines between the Ashen Valley and the Barren Lands finally changed.
After all, Vandal is not Yin Lidan, who has an amazing fighting talent, and the Demon Hunter can suppress the Doomsday Lord Kazloga, but Vandar looks a little embarrassed when resisting Kazloga's attacks.
There is indeed a gap in combat effectiveness between Vandal and Yin Lidan, but strictly speaking, it is not too big.
The main reason for this was that Kazloga's originally injured wings were gradually beginning to recover, which significantly increased the pressure on Vandal as he resisted the enemy's attack.
Under Garrod's command, the defenders of the front line, who were gradually falling into disadvantage, barely held out for another week or so, but finally had to abandon the battlefield on the Ash Valley border and retreat to the next line of defense with their living forces.
Yin Lidan's escape was indeed somewhat unexpected by Garrod, but overall, the retreat was only about 3 days earlier than Garrod expected.
The two vanguard generals who led the main force of the Burning Legion to attack the defense line were both demigod-level demons, and it was not easy for Mavi and Vandal to hold on for so long with the help of the various objective conditions created by Garrod.
"Then is the hardest time......"
On the way down Ashdale Avenue to Felwood Forest, Garrod looked worriedly at the local battlefield near the wooded dwellings.
The demons of the Burning Legion have long since infiltrated the area under the control of all the Night Elves, and the northern part of Kalimdor is now full of beacons.
Once Garrod, who was stuck in the main force of the Burning Legion on the border of Ash Valley, retreated, the situation in the other branch battlefields would inevitably be affected, and the defeat was predictable.
Garrod had anticipated this, and he placed the second line of defense at the Woodthroat Fortress on the border of Felwood Forest, Moonlight Glades, and Winterspring Valley, intending to use the help of the Woodthroat Bears to continue to slow the Burning Legion's advance towards Mount Hyjal.
However, this second line of defense can only slow down the Demon Army's attack, and the Legion Air Force led by Kazloga should climb directly from Ashenvale to Mount Hyjal.
Fortunately, the Alliance's reinforcements had already set up defensive positions at the foot of Mount Hyjal, ready to face the onslaught of the Burning Legion at any time.
"What the hell are the Wilderness Demigods up to? Why are dragons so slow? ”
On the way to the Woodthroat Fortress, Garrod bowed his head in confusion and muttered, "Godlin and Tortora aside, why hasn't Senarius, the forest demigod who has the best relationship with the Night Elves, delayed his arrival?" ”
"Could it be that there are other reasons behind the development of the situation that I don't know about?"
"What the hell are you thinking about, Sarjan?"
……
Saljan, who was being talked about by Garrod, didn't have time to care about the situation on the frontal battlefield at this time, and with Garrod, a genius commander, the multiple lines of defense arranged by the Night Elves were not so easy to be quickly penetrated by the Burning Legion.
"Not there?!"
Upon landing at the new tribe's makeshift base in the valley north of Durotal, Sarjan was stunned to learn the bad news from Aurelia, who had arrived first.
After instructing Grom to lead the Warsong Clan to the Ashen Valley to log wood, Gu Yin'er, who had temporarily eliminated the hidden dangers within the tribe, led the chieftain's guard to Stonetalon Mountain alone, apparently to meet Medivan's invitation.
"Hiss~" Salian touched his chin with a toothache: "Why is it at this time...... It's a bit of a hassle now. ”
Salaan turned to look at Woking, who had just arrived from the Echo Islands to make peace with Aurelia, "Wojin, can the Darkspear Trolls be dispatched immediately?" ”
Wojin nodded without hesitation: "Yes, the base has been basically completed, and the soldiers can go out at any time." ”
"Good."
Salaan took out a badge of the Deep Shadow Family and handed it to Aurelia: "Sister Aurelia, I still have important things to do here, so please run again." ”
"Take this token to Thunder Bluff, the capital of the Minotaur in the Mogaolei Grassland, and entrust the Minotaur Chief Kane Bloodhoof to lead the army to make peace with us as quickly as possible."
Aurelia said, "No problem, but with the strength of the Darkspear Trolls' headquarters...... Are you sure you're in control of the situation? ”
Salian smiled bitterly and rubbed his eyebrows: "It's man-made, and you can only take one step at a time." ”
"I'll first go and meet with the advisors Yin Trig and the Sarufar brothers who have been left behind by Gu Yin Er to act as the acting Great Chief, and I hope to convince them to send troops to help."
"After all......"
Saljan looked deeply at the Warsong Lumber Yard to the northwest, "This is also the best time for orcs to get rid of the curse of demonic blood. ”
