Chapter 337 Subtle changes

"Damn it!"

Sylvanas Windrunner put down the bow in her hand and cursed quietly in her heart.

Those brown-skinned orcs are surprisingly nimble in their movements in the forest. Their agility is completely opposite to their bulky and strong bodies. Especially the opponent's use of the environment is simply amazing. They are obviously the first

This is the first time I have come to Silver Moon Forest, but the ones who are comfortable swimming in the forest seem to be the aboriginal people who have lived here for thousands of years.

Often, as soon as you aim at the opponent, the opponent's body disappears from sight. The trees and environment in the forest become the best cover and shelter for the opponent.

Even if she knew the forest well, even if her bow and arrow had enough penetrating power, just relying on memory and feel to determine the location and shoot would often not be as effective as it should be.

So far, they have not been able to keep the few orcs in front of them. If she hadn't had decent tracking skills and familiarity with this area, she would have lost them long ago just based on how slippery the orcs were.

.

Even now, she is following the other party with difficulty, and will not leave until the other party completely gets rid of their tracking.

"Have the reinforcements not arrived yet?" Alleria Windrunner, one of the three sisters, asked. Their tall elves moved quickly in the forest, only pausing occasionally to observe the surrounding environment.

Identify the traces of orc activity and follow them from a distance.

Those orcs were even cunning enough to make some fake traces to induce them to pursue the wrong direction. But this kind of behavior could not be hidden from the three Windrunner sisters. They could always quickly detect something was wrong, and then go back to the same place, and start again.

Distinguish the direction and track again. After a few times, this method of inducing the wrong direction has completely failed.

Of course, this thought only flashed in Uther's mind for a moment, and was suppressed by the sense of vigilance he had constantly brainwashed. He still believed that this was a deliberate strategy by the other party to make him careless and relax.

"I'm afraid we can only get some accurate information from the mouths of those intruders." Grand Magister Luo Bihua said softly: "The energy concentration of the Sun Well is still declining, and the rate of decline is more obvious than the previous two days.

If this rate of decline is maintained, then soon the sunwell energy covering the entire Quel'Thalas barrier will continue to shrink."

"They are following them again. Can't you give me some time to deal with them?" Ner'zhul noticed the elves from the elements and followed them. He frowned slightly and informed Gromar next to him.

After Hell's Roar, Grommash touched the Gorehowl ax on his back and couldn't help but said.

"They are very cunning. We cannot lock their position through elements and magic, and they are immune to the mysterious power." This is the first time that the elf mage has encountered this kind of magic failure. Now he can even communicate with the Windrunner sisters

All difficult.

There is no doubt that what caused all this was the strange totem pillar in front of him. And the angel-like sculpture also made Uther curious.

The only thing Uther can do is to use this environment to absorb and master more power of Holy Light as soon as possible to increase his own strength. If any changes or opportunities do arise, he will have the strength to grasp them.

If the elves were not that powerful and there were not so many mages, then of course he would not mind Grommash going on a killing spree, but it was obvious that the other party was not easy to mess with. They were fighting each other on their territory. No matter how you looked at it,

None of them would be a good outcome. If it wasn't inevitable, Ner'zhul wouldn't want to start a battle here that would involve losing troops and losing generals.

The energy of the Sunwell is spread throughout Quel'Thalas, which is covered by the barrier. If it shrinks, it will undoubtedly be equivalent to a reduction in the coverage area. If there is no improvement, in the worst case, the Sunwell may end up with only

Next to it, the energy of the Sun Well can be vaguely absorbed. As for the fact that the energy of the Sun Well is completely sealed, Anastarian does not want to think about it.

Ner'zhul even used the knowledge he had learned from the high priest to mess up the elements in the areas passing by, thus preventing the following pursuers from using the elements to track them if there were elves who could communicate with the elements.

At first, Uther was worried about being humiliated by the defeated, but from being captured to now, no one even came to pay attention to him. Even the interrogations that he thought were inevitable, such as various questions about Lordaeron and Stratholme.

Information, food, troops, personnel, war reserves and other important information are all missing.

…

Although the elves are reclusive and unwilling to get involved in any wars and disturbances in the human world, it concerns the Sunwell. No matter how you look at it, they seem to be unable to stay alone in Quel'Thalas as before.

.

You must know that the Sunwell is the most important source of power for the elves in Quel'Thalas. The elves need the energy of the Sunwell to restrain their addiction to magic. Once something happens to the Sunwell, it will be like the Well of Eternity thousands of years ago.

The explosion made the elves of Quel'Thalas even more desperate and uneasy.

He has been tied here for more than two days, and except for Durotan who came to look at him and brought him some food, no one has come here to pay attention to him.

…

There are so many orcs that it is impossible to defeat them!

"How on earth did they go all the way to the Sunwell without disturbing the enchantment?" Sylvanas, one of the three sisters, expressed her confusion. The entire Quel'Thalas is shrouded by an elven enchantment, and they do not welcome outsiders.

Normally, anyone who enters without permission will be expelled and attacked by the elves. But this group of strange intruders, if there hadn't been something strange in the Sunwell and were discovered by the elf mages, those orcs who drove in might have

No one will notice you until you leave.

Anastarian opened a letter printed with the royal seal of Lordaeron and written by Terenas himself. The letter revealed the changes in the Dragon Tower and the invasion of the orcs. He hoped that the elves could send a support army.

, and attack the intruders from front to back with them, drive them away, and block the portal of the stable large-scale legion being built in the Dragon Tower area.

"Of course I also want to deal with them, but Grommash, our mission has been completed, there is no need to fight them here. Although we have brought elites, this is not our territory."

Aozu whispered.

"Maybe we should send someone to Lordaeron. I believe they should have more information about the invaders at this moment." Grand Mage Luo Bihua said.

Uther, who had already prepared not to reveal this information even if he died, became a little confused as time passed.

But if there is any movement, it will quickly alert the nearby orcs. By then, he will not be able to run away at all. The fighting power and elite level of those orcs are enough to make him completely give up the idea of ​​resisting to the end after he is discovered.

After some experiments, he was surprised to find that in this cage, the power of Holy Light in his body actually increased by at least nearly half. It seemed that only the Power of Holy Light existed here, and other elements and mysterious powers were all suppressed.

The Holy Light has been suppressed at a low ebb, or pushed out. But the priests who practice the Holy Light are at home here like a fish in water.

He had felt the power of the totem. It seemed that a steady stream of power similar to faith was collected into the totem, and then transformed into the pure power of holy light through the transformation of the totem, and then maintained the cage.

exist.

If Stratholme Cathedral had such a treasure, the number of believers and priests who could perceive the Holy Light and master its power might increase at least several times.

Has he been forgotten?

Or does it mean that the other party doesn't know who he is at all? Or does it mean that he never thought that he could ask for this information from his mouth?

Hearing this, Anastarian pondered for a moment and nodded slowly. This is not a war between humans, but concerns the elves. They can indeed send people out to investigate.

Looking at the form and appearance of the invaders described by Terenas in the letter, Anastarian couldn't help but think of the tan-skinned invaders who caused the accident in the Sunwell. Comparing the two

This also made Anastarian understand the origin of the intruder, and he was no longer confused.

Can't beat it.

Sure enough, after hearing Ner'zhul's reminder, Grommash's high-spirited fighting spirit was quickly suppressed. The team once again changed direction under Ner'zhul's guidance and ran towards the outer exit of Silvermoon Forest.

And go.

But two days later, the other party's hot pursuit still made Ner'zhul angry.

Suddenly, the elves looked towards the sky. A griffon was hovering in the sky. The sharp-eyed elves even spotted the people on the griffin.

"What happened to the Sunwell?" Anastarian Sunstrider, the elven monarch of Quel'Thalas, asked again. He has asked this question no less than ten times in the past two days.

But there is still no accurate answer.

Of course, this is just the worst idea. Things may not necessarily develop in the worst direction. But no matter what, Anastarian must ensure that the sunwell returns to normal, and if possible, the one who was thrown in

Take things out.

The reason why they were able to avoid the elven pursuers so smoothly and smoothly was because of his ability to forcibly communicate with the elements here. He could obtain the opponent's movements and distance from the elements and nature. This

This allows them to timely change their route based on intelligence information and stagger away from their pursuers.

Anastarian Sunstrider's face became even more ugly after hearing this. He understood the not-so-subtle meaning of the Grand Magister's words. It was precisely because he understood that his face became so ugly.

, only then will there be more anger in the chest.

"Have the Windrunner Rangers not been able to catch up with the invaders yet?" After Anastarian put away the letter, he looked at the elf mage responsible for delivering the message.

"Maybe they think we can deal with these invaders." Another elf added.

When no one is around, he will occasionally look around, especially the totem pillar that seems to be the core hub of the cage, which is his top priority.

"I'm sorry, but in order not to fall for another trick of attacking the West, those gentlemen are most concerned about the Sunwell right now. Unless they confirm that there is no problem with the Sunwell, they won't be able to take care of it in the short term." One of the team members

The elf spoke out.

However, Ner'zhul also knew very well that the current Grommash would not necessarily listen to him, so he had to carry Held out. He whispered: "Think about the high priest, she is still waiting

Let’s go back and report the news.”

Uther, who was shackled all over, was tied to a tall totem pole. Above the totem pole was a man wearing a gold and white robe with six golden wings on his back, like an angel.

The body is compassionate, but the face cannot be seen clearly.

The orcs obviously discovered this later on, so they simply gave up this method and put all their energy and time into retreat.

"After you catch up with them, you will know everything." Alleria ordered: "Follow them!"

After a lot of tossing, the gryphon landed in the strong wind. The messenger from Lordaeron handed the letter in his hand into the hands of the elves.

What's more, the totem itself is also protected by the holy light. If you want to destroy it, the simplest, most straightforward, and most effective way is to destroy it by pure brute force. The energy will be absorbed and transformed by it.

Uther tried to find a way to escape, but the shackles on his body were a pair of magic shackles. Under the restrictions of the shackles, it was impossible for him to leave the area ten meters away from the center totem radius. Once beyond, the air would be filled with

A thick wall of holy light with thick patterns will appear. This is true in all directions, only Uther in the sky has not tried it yet.

…

If he could destroy this totem, it would be equivalent to destroying the core of the cage, making it lose its energy hub. Then the walls of holy light on all sides would disappear due to the destruction of the totem. He would also be able to gain initial freedom.

The only thing that was certain was that those damn intruders threw something into the Sunwell, and it was this unknown thing that caused the Sunwell to undergo changes.

But what he didn't discover was that as he absorbed more power of the Holy Light into his body, he had a vague connection with the sculpture on the totem. The Holy Light he believed in was in his heart and

My mind was slowly transformed into the sculpture shown on the totem.

An invisible conceptual energy is given a form.

During the entire process, Uther did not notice anything unusual. He did not even realize that the Holy Light he believed in and understood had transformed into the six-winged figure on the totem of faith just like believers believe in God.
