Azeroth Shadow Trail

Chapter 1634 2. This sounds like a standard trap

"Didn't it mean that there are very few demons in the petrified forest? Why are we besieged by them when we fall?"

Old Fording chopped down the demon hound that was rushing towards him with a single sword, and in the bright storm formed by the holy blade that bloomed the holy light and called the protective body, he crushed the two succubi who were sneaking around and trying to seduce him to death.

Amidst the sharp and miserable howls of the demons, the great knight raised his sword and rushed to Kurtaz, the dwarf paladin lord who was knocked down by the fel lord, and grabbed his injured leg. Drag it back to the temporary stronghold.

The fierce battle made Fording's adrenaline soar. He looked back at the panting Draenei garrison officers behind him, and complained:

"Is our luck really that bad?"

"There are few demons in the petrified forest, but it doesn't mean there are no demons here. According to Hatton, there are still a few small demon strongholds here."

Difficult to summon the elemental power beside Fording, Akama, the leader of the Broken who treated the wounded dwarf paladin, explained, then shook his head and said:

"But you're right, we were really unlucky, they looked like they were shifting positions, and we ended up jumping on their faces.

What a hassle to have no element reminders. "

"Stop chatting!"

Uther, who was holding the silver hand warhammer to resist the demon in front of the position, didn't even have time to wipe the blood from his face, and shouted to the crowd behind him:

"The demons are calling for reinforcements, and I saw that the portal has opened! Whoever destroys them, we have few people, and we can only temporarily retreat if we can't."

"Can't go back."

Akama grabbed his golden scythe and yelled:

"Hatton has already received our news, he must be bringing people over here, if we withdraw, it will be equivalent to selling Hatton.

No one knows better than I the extreme nature of our broken ones. Once we do this, the whole Krokul clan will not help us anymore.

We must persevere, what about the other advance teams? Is there any near us? Can I ask for support? "

"The evil energy blocked the magic communication."

Khadgar, who threw three big fireballs with a wave and created a shock of ice, took the time to reply:

"I have to spend some time getting used to the frequency of Argus' magic web, I can't contact them now, I can only hope that the battle on our side will attract their attention.

I can risk teleportation."

Khadgar hesitantly felt the desolate and chaotic magical atmosphere around him, he whispered:

"But I can't accurately lock the landing point in the weird magic power of Argus. I'm afraid that we will be sent to the magma by accident. Given the current situation of magma pools all over the world of Argus, this is a high probability event."

"Then fight!"

Supporting his body with Gorehowl, the extremely thin but red-eyed orc chief Grom Hellscream shook his body and stood up, dragging Gorehowl towards the fierce position in front of him.

He spat at his feet and said:

"Kill them all! Problem solved, get out of the way! Paladin, you stand in my way to slay demons."

"You sick bastard, don't join in the fun."

Uther scolded:

"Look at you, Greenskin, a gust of wind could knock you down! I'm afraid you'll be hacked to death by a demon's axe, and I'll have to explain why you died to Chief Gaiaan and Trash Red."

"boom"

As soon as the paladin's scolding fell, Grom locked on a fel lord showing off his power in front of the front line.

The orc chief, who was staggering as he walked, launched a charge with a deep roar, knocking away several demons blocking the way like a burst of blood, and waved the blood roar with one hand in front of his target.

The terrifying anger exploded like a bomb, and then suddenly gathered, like an assassin flashing a dagger in the dark.

The enemy is at this moment.

Grom, who was coughing violently, knelt on the ground and clutched his chest in pain. The huge and ferocious fel lord's body in front of him was like an orange cut by a sharp knife, bursting with stinky blood at the same time as his head flew up. Spilled everywhere.

Good guy!

Elimination Blade, one-hit instant kill.

This terrifying scene made all the surrounding demons take a step back. Grom, who was supposed to be hacked to death because of his weakness, survived.

The morale of the paladins was also greatly boosted by this, and under the leadership of Uther and Old Fording, they made a pretty beautiful counter-charge, driving the demons off the hilly position they were defending.

Because the demon commander was killed by Grom with an axe, the small number of second-rate demons began to collapse, and the portal that the demon wizard was opening was also destroyed by Old Fording and Akama.

This unlucky battle situation seems to be starting to develop in a good direction.

But just as the paladins were rushing down the hillside, preparing to completely crush the demons in one go, a scene that made them desperate was staged behind the retreat of the demons below.

Under Uther's wide-eyed gaze, two huge fel energy portals opened without warning, and as the fel energy vortex swirled, a large number of vicious demon guards rushed through the portals howling. out.

There are also two tall angry guards carrying a quite punk-shaped sedan chair-like sliding pole made of waste magic steel, on which sits a black shadow.

Even if he couldn't see his face, he could feel an evil cold wind blowing around when he appeared.

The beating holy light is urging Uther to retreat immediately!

It was a formidable foe that he could not handle with the hammer of the Silver Hand, and perhaps the super-powerful demon commander of the Burning Legion sitting in Krokuun.

To have two angry guards who are usually low-level demon commanders so obediently carry the sedan chair for it, this guy's evil aura is simply bursting.

"Retreat! Retreat!"

Uther immediately gave the order.

The paladins also knew that the problem was serious, so they turned around and charged in the opposite direction, and the lower-level demons who had collapsed because the commander was beheaded and killed saw the reinforcements coming, and immediately replenished their morale, and began to howl and chase those paladins back.

They hit so fast that Uther had to stay to buy time for the others.

There are still a few wounded in the camp.

"Holy Light! Let justice bloom in this dark place!"

Uther was not afraid of these low-level demons in front of him. He stopped at the spot and held the holy hammer of the holy light. In a low voice, he attracted the golden holy light to add to his body like a bright flame burning.

Uther, who has activated the Wrath of Vengeance, is like an angel of the Holy Light descending on the land of demons. After the Light Forging Ceremony, he has a closer connection with the Holy Light and makes himself more powerful in the form of infused Holy Light.

The swing of the light-forged wings gave Uther a super power that could be mobilized. He roared and shot out some holy anger. The scorching holy light rushed out from all around the big knight, hitting the demon's chaotic mind and forcing them to stun. , and then a storm of light turned into a holy rune blade revolving around the body, engulfing the surrounding unconscious demons like a storm of blades.

This set of combos is extremely skillful, and he has blocked the counter-charge of the lower-level demons alone. To be honest, with the combat power after Uther's light casting, these demons really can't do anything in a desperate battle. What to do with him.

But soon, Uther found that his "explosive big move" was useless.

Because there are no enemies at all!

In the next second, he saw the "evil man" who was carried out of the portal by the demon standing on his extremely evil magic steel sliding pole, waving towards him friendly, still whistling.

It seems to be praising Uther's mighty fighting posture.

And the person who can do this kind of thing on this dangerous battlefield will know who it is with his heels.

"Boring bastard!"

While Uther relaxed in his heart, he angrily smashed the warhammer in his hand on a fel kid in front of him who had no time to escape, smashing the poor low-level demon into pieces in the holy light.

And Braike, who was sitting on a sliding pole and carried by two angry guards, raised his left hand and waved forward. The demon guards around him who were captured by the void with brutal minds screamed and aimed their weapons at their fellow citizens. them.

The pirates also specifically strengthened the desire to fight and destroy in the hearts of these lower-level demons, allowing them to enter the most violent fighting mode the moment they punched themselves hard.

The small group of demons who were attacked from the back and back did not expect the enemy to be in the rear at all. Being stabbed so hard in the back quickly plunged them into chaos, and they were scattered in the second charge of the paladins.

Soon, more than 300 demons were killed at the edge of this petrified forest.

Although there were injuries on his own side, such a quick and easy extermination of a group of demons also made the morale of the paladins who had just landed feel bursting.

They see it as a gift of the Light.

"Are you upset if you don't do anything for a day?"

When Bo Laike was carried leisurely across the battlefield by two demons to the side of the unlucky paladins, Old Fording couldn't help complaining:

"When we saw the portal open just now, we were all ready to die here, bastard! Do you think this is interesting?"

"Well, it's really interesting to watch the scene of a group of loyal paladins determined to fight to the death. The heroic scene of those guys just now made me feel moved from the bottom of my heart."

The pirate grinned, oblivious to the glaring glares of the paladins.

Because he knew that the news he brought would definitely make those guys who gave him the middle finger happy.

Leaning on his demon sedan chair welded with all kinds of magic steel scraps and flames, he whistled to the paladins in front of him and said:

"Come, come, put away your angry expressions and scolding, I have great news to tell you, your good luck has come.

Just now I found traces of what appears to be Alexandros Mograine, the unlucky fellow who must have been imprisoned near the Petrified Forest.

But that place was destroyed.

I now suspect that there is a high probability that he has gone to a 'good place' to enjoy life. "

"what?"

The news brought by Bu Laike made Uther, who was resting on the charred corpse of a demon, suddenly raised his head, and the great knight asked anxiously:

"Are you sure? Mograine is really alive?"

"I can't give you a 100% answer, even if I am a prophet."

The pirate snorted and said:

"But he is definitely not dead. At least my 'special channel' didn't tell me the news. Maybe you can check with the local Kroku?"

"They're coming!"

Just at this moment, Akama, who was holding a strange elemental stone on the other side of the battlefield, turned around and shouted. When everyone stood up, they saw a rift extending from the petrified forest to nowhere. Chief ha Dun was coming himself with a troop of Kroku cavalry.

They obviously discovered the battle here, so these Kroku came here in full armor, and their tarbuk sheep even wore some armor forged from scraps of magic steel.

It looks very imposing.

"Brother Akama, it seems that you have won a great victory! Argus' will is indeed protecting you."

Chief Hatton, who was carrying the staff, saw that everyone was safe and sound, and saw the corpses of demons all over the ground. This made the highly vigilant Chief Kroku see the strength of these brave men again.

The cavalry under its command were also whispering among each other, obviously shocked by the bravery of these aliens.

No wonder they dared to leave their hometown and come to the hell of Argus.

"We have found your other four advance teams, and except for the brave demon hunters under Lord Illidan's command, they have all entered our rift valley.

Come with me, you look like you need a break. "

Chief Hatton stepped forward, and took a cautious look at Bu Laike, who was surrounded by demons and covered with flowing shadows. He didn't look like a good person at first glance. He said a few words to everyone in Eredan.

But this will be caused by the news brought by Bu Laike, Uther and Old Fording whispered a few words, and the Lightbringer stepped forward and asked Hatton:

"Honorable Chief Kroku, we are not tired, and rather than resting, we want to know if you have heard about one of our brothers in the local area recently?

His name is Alexandros Mograine, and he is a warrior of the Light.

He was kidnapped into this world by despicable demons before, and one of the important purposes of our trip is to find him. I heard that he was imprisoned near this petrified forest? "

"Well, I've heard of the name. The demons once built a fortress near here to corrupt him."

Chief Hatton nodded. Seeing that Brother Akama did not conceal the news, he pointed to a demon stronghold outside the forest with undulating fel rock walls and flowing magma pools, and said:

"Those shiny Legion of Holy Light also fought fiercely with local demons for him, and a hill in the forest was flattened by the energy bombardment of those Holy Light lunatics.

But I'm not sure if your brother Mograine is alive or dead now, some of our scouts have heard some gossip from demon scum.

A rescue attempt by the Legion of the Light is said to have failed.

They lost their troops, and the captives, together with the paladin, were transferred to the fortress beyond the Annihilan Molten Pool, where they were guarded by a group of evil Nathrezim. "

The chief of Kroku glanced at the paladin in front of him, and said indifferently:

"We, Kroku, have different ideas from the Legion of Light, and we are not interested in sacrificing for their just war, so that's all we know about the specific situation.

You can die if you want, but you must not interfere with the plans of Lord Illidan and Kroku. "

"Brother Hatton, don't be so indifferent."

Akama smoothed things over and said:

"They are all true warriors. They came here to save our hometown. Let's talk about what we have to say when we go back to a safe place. Everyone, I don't want to fight the demons here again."

The paladins nodded, and they followed Chief Hatton to Kroku's camp, but Uther and old Fordring were at the end of the team, and they approached Bo Laike, who was being carried forward by those frustrated demons.

Old Fording whispered:

"Bo Laike, you just said that you thought Mograine was out of danger and gone to a good place, but Krokul here said that the mysterious Legion of Light failed to rescue him.

We obviously trust you more than these kroku.

You are the commander, what do you say we should do next? "

"Let me correct your statement, Fording, I just said that Mograine went to a good place, and I didn't say that he was out of danger."

The pirate yawned and said in a drawn out voice:

"And I have no evidence to support my point.

Maybe we can take the risk to go to the places where the demons gather together. Of course, there is a high probability that there is a trap, and I smell danger.

Some very nefarious 'friends' who are very opinionated about me are waiting for us to jump in.

But the most important thing now is that we have to determine another issue, which is the location of the Helm of Domination, so let's meet up with the Death Knights before taking the risk.

If the Helm of Dominion is really there, we'll have to go there no matter what happens to Mograine. "
