Shadow Trails in Azeroth

"Wow, look at this hellish place! The trees here have been drained of every last drop of water by the evil energy, turning them into a forest as bad as a stone.

I'm starting to regret coming to this place. "

Later that night, large shadows appeared in the sky above the walls of Crocoon.

The members of the anti-magic alliance's advance force, who had been cast with slow-fall spells by the casters, jumped from the sky, including old Brian Bronzebeard, who was holding his monkey pet.

This bastard was wearing his own adventure hat, a large backpack on his back, and a double-barreled shotgun. He was talking about how scary and dangerous this place was, but the excitement shining in his eyes was barely concealed.

The thought "I want to dig this place out" is almost engraved on my forehead.

Beside him is the traveler Zhou Zhuo.

This guy didn't use the slow-fall technique. Instead, he was carried down from a high altitude by his dear friend Master Xianglong. Compared with the old Brian of "Evil Chaos" who was ready to do something special, Zhou Zhuo performed very professionally.

He grabbed the Lorewalker's scroll and the strange writing brush in the air, and began to describe and record his first impression of the world of Argus.

It has to be said that the opportunity to witness a doomsday world with one's own eyes was so rare and rare that Lao Zhou felt a surge of excitement belonging to an explorer and traveler.

Also doing the same thing is His Highness Little Star.

She fell in human form in the air, and also got herself an explorer outfit. She held a dwarf camera in her hand and took pictures.

This is Azeroth's first-hand information on the research and understanding of the world of Argus! That is quite precious.

Before her departure, Dean Lanyue specifically told Little Xingxing to be responsible for compiling the "Geography of Azeroth - Argus Investigation Report" and record the completion of this report into Little Xingxing's total score for future graduation.

This is a major event in the academic circle. For this reason, Dean Lanyue specifically resisted his good student Black and wanted to help his junior schoolmate Xiao Xingxing complete this matter.

Black wanted to say that he had no time for this, but in the end he did not choose to offend Dean Lanyue. Anyway, he just took care of the stupid little Xingxing. This job should not be difficult, right?

The airborne drop of more than 2,000 people at one time was extremely large. Although the Croku Cavalry had set up gathering points in various places in the Petrified Forest early, when they arrived in the early morning of that day, there were still dozens of unlucky ghosts missing.

It is initially suspected that they may have fallen into a dangerous area outside the petrified forest because they were not adapted to Argus's magic system.

This forced Maraad to organize a "retrieval team" to go to increasingly dangerous areas to retrieve the confused guys before they were surrounded by demons and killed them.

But before the retrieval team could set off, a triangular teleportation beacon fell from the sky and landed in the valley in front of Croku's camp.

In the shining of holy light, the indifferent Archbishop Mograine walked out of the teleportation beacon with his adjutant Captain Faria and a team of light-forged warriors.

Also coming with them were the dozens of missing unfortunates.

Obviously, they were discovered by the high-speed cruising Zenidar in the Lost Land before they encountered danger.

"Ah, it was too dangerous just now."

The evil eye of the orc wearing a warlock's robe pretended to wipe the non-existent sweat on his forehead and boasted to the demon hunter who came to greet them:

"We mistakenly entered a demonic position. The straight-line distance from the nearest patrolling magic bat is less than 300 meters. If our friends from the Holy Light hadn't arrived in time, we would have died in that ghost place."

"You still have the nerve to say it!"

Following Evil Eye, the dwarf hero General Kurdran looked unhappy and his teeth were itching with hatred. He cursed:

"If you hadn't been playing around with dangerous warlock magic in the air, how could we have landed in such an outrageous area? I should have killed you with a hammer in the air just now, you shameless green-skinned bastard."

"This place is full of horrific imbalances and is a truly dark place. You two, we must put aside our past grudges here and work together."

A deep voice sounded behind the orc warlock and dwarf air cavalry. Head Zhu Talan, who was wearing a Shado Para wind cloak, stretched out his hand to separate the two guys who were about to fight.

He said very seriously and with some warning:

"It would be foolish to choose infighting at this moment."

Warlock Xieyan knew Zhu Taran. He knew that this was a very powerful monk and he would definitely be beaten if he dared to talk too much, so he was very obedient and did not choose to refute.

He just threw a provocative look at the aggrieved dwarf, adjusted his clothes, and quickly ran to Black's side to flatter him.

But Evil Eye came a little late due to an accident and failed to catch the first wave of fresh flattery.

Many people have gathered around the pirate. In addition to Uncle Sachiel, who has a sad face and his head is still burning, there are also his disciples, the new star of the Watch, Valeela Sangunar, and the senior canon. Prison Officer Mylene Bladewing.

Of course, there are also several Void Watch captains hiding in the shadows.

The Uncrowned One also sent very good assassins to help out, but as soon as they landed, Black assigned them to Garona, who was currently on a hunting mission.

The orc female assassin is the nominal master of the Uncrowned Ones and has extremely rich experience in fighting behind enemy lines. It is natural for her to command the assassins.

The one with the highest status among the pirates is General Shandris Feathermoon, who came to fight on behalf of the Silver Wing Sentinels. Because the Sisters of Elune would later participate in the raid on Argus, Shandris also represented Tyran. From virtue.

It is worth mentioning that when he was preparing to set off in Draenor, Black discovered Princess Talanji of the Zandalari Golden Dynasty who should not have appeared in the crowd.

Princess Talanji is indeed a young person with some ideas.

Blackburn thought that she would go back after staying in Draenor or on the Exodar for a while, but he didn't expect that she would actually dare to enter Argus with her own bodyguard.

You must know that the Loa she believes in is difficult to protect her in this remote place.

It seems that the King of Gold, Rastakhan, has really decided to pass the throne to his daughter, otherwise he would not risk his daughter to come to this fatal place to be "gilded".

"Due to the destruction of the Annihran molten pool, the Burning Legion's defense line in the edge land of Krokuun has appeared terrible loopholes. They are deploying their troops, but there is no way to reach the demonic center of local rule. The road to Thrax Fortress has been opened.

That's our chance. "

Blake was explaining the current local situation to the people next to him. He spoke very concisely, but combined with the map obtained from Kroku Breaker, the strategy suddenly became clear.

Everyone around him was listening carefully, including Lord Rommath, the Phoenix Archmage of Quel'Thalas who had strong opinions on pirates, and Halduron Brightwing, the Light Ranger.

"Everyone, I hope you understand that Krokuun is the Burning Legion's borderland on Argus, but that doesn't mean that the demons here are easy to deal with.

According to the information currently received from assassins and rangers, at least one high-ranking demon commander is sitting in Nasrax Fortress, and there is a permanent portal directly connected to the Antolan Wasteland.

As long as we launch an attack there, it means that we have to fight the main demonic force of Argus. "

Blake moved his finger on the map and said to the people around him:

“So, the raid on Nasrax Fortress will directly start the decisive battle between the Anti-Magic Alliance and the Burning Legion, and we need to execute it at the end of the first phase.

That is to say, we will fight this battle when our main force reaches Argus.

It takes time to deploy the demon army's defenses, and we also need time. Before that day comes, I need you to work together to take down the remaining two strongholds of Krokuun.

But this time we can't be opportunistic, we have to be steady and steady.

Luckily, I found friends for you who are familiar with the Argus War format, and lo and behold, here they are. "

The pirate looked back at the War Archbishop who came over with his adjutant.

Mograine nodded to him indifferently, and the appearance of this guy instantly excited Bolvar Fordragon, the regent of Stormwind Kingdom who was very low-key in the crowd.

Bolvar and Mograine had a very good personal relationship because they were both great nobles and had beaten greenskins together in Northern Xinjiang. He lived in the Mograine family monastery when he was in Northern Xinjiang.

But just when he wanted to walk out of the crowd and say hello to Mograine, he was stopped by Fording beside him.

Old Fording shook his head at him.

This made Bolvar's expression become confused.

"Following the instructions of the Mother of Holy Light, everyone, the Holy Light Legion will dedicate a special force to support your battle. This force will be commanded by me and my adjutant, Ms. Faria."

Mograine said to the surrounding commanders very restrainedly:

"However, I have some small suggestions for the strategy of Lord Black, the commander of the anti-demon coalition."

"Wait, I'm no longer the commander. Just a few seconds ago, I resigned."

The pirate was too lazy to deal with the guys from the Legion of Light. He took out a pocket watch and pretended to look at it, shook his head and said:

"The real commander of the anti-magic coalition, Lord Jarod Shadowsong, is still making final preparations on the Exodar. He may arrive here in half an hour, so you need to talk to him about strategic matters.

Next, I have to go through the demonic camp and go to the Mac'Aree area. There are very important things that must be obtained there. "

"I will tell you, Commander, but I must also tell you the secret of this land."

Mograine said seriously:

"This is a situation that must be known to all commanders. It is valuable information collected by the Holy Light Legion after many years of fighting on Argus."

"Is that so?"

Blake glanced at Illidan, who said nothing. The pirate nodded, placed the map in front of Mograine, and made a "please" gesture.

The War Archbishop did not hide anything. He marked a red dot on Croku's map, in a mountainous area on the inner edge of the Nasrax Fortress.

He unfolded the map in his hand so that the commanders of all races in front of him could see it clearly.

He pointed to the mark and said:

"Here! Hidden here is something very important to the Argus World War. It can even be said that this thing is directly related to the success or failure of this war.

Everyone, the fact that you are here means that you all understand the tactics of demons. The demons’ ‘immortal’ nature must be a headache for all of us.

After they are killed in the material world, they will return to the twisted void and resurrect. Unless they are killed in the twisted void separated from the material world, the hidden danger of a demon can be completely eliminated.

But the Burning Legion has a powerful fleet force, which makes them almost impossible to be killed by external forces in the Twisting Nether. "

"Speak to the important point! Mograine."

Grom Hellscream, who was sitting on the edge of the crowd, leaning on his battle ax and feeling the weak care of his son, said with disgust:

"You may live for tens of thousands of years, but I don't have much time left, so don't talk nonsense, okay?"

"What I'm going to say next is the point."

Mograine glanced at the grumpy old orc, who was not disturbed and continued:

"The demons in the world of Argus have a very peculiar characteristic. If you kill a demon anywhere in this world, they will be reborn elsewhere very quickly.

This is also the reason why Argus can become the most important base camp of the Burning Legion among the stars. There is some kind of power in this world that protects the demons so that they do not have to return to the distant twisted void to resurrect.

In other words, if we can't lift the limit of infinite resurrection of demons before the general attack begins, then it will be useless no matter how many of you come!

The Holy Light Legion discovered this strange phenomenon very early.

Thanks to Lord Illidan's transfer of Argus from its original system to this place, we took the opportunity to conduct an armed reconnaissance on Nasrax Fortress not long ago.

This is the result of our investigation. "

The War Archbishop increased his voice, pointed at the marks on the map and said to the others:

"Here! This is the Fel Heart of Argus! The true location of the Fel Heart. The demons spent a lot of energy building permanent fortifications like Nasrax Fortress in the barren Crokuun just to cover it up. exist.

All the demons in this world maintain a strange relationship with the heart of the world that is overflowing with evil energy. The power of the polluted world also bursts out from here, giving the demons the ability to continuously resurrect.

If I have to make a metaphor, this is equivalent to the Well of Eternity in Azeroth! The filthy power of the Heart of the World continuously overflows from it, and is frantically grabbed by the demons to strengthen itself.

So, no matter how many sacrifices we make, we must destroy this place before the war begins!

Your carefully prepared coalition forces can only land after the Fel Heart is destroyed, otherwise they will only provide more food for the demons. "

"Ah, I remembered."

Black was also rubbing his chin at this moment, narrowing his eyes and thinking of the last revenge execution in the world of Draenor with the help of the World Ring, which almost killed Kil'jaeden.

The Deceiver gained immortality through his connection with the Fel Heart of Argus.

"This is what I have to say, brave warriors."

The Archbishop of War nodded and said:

"The Holy Light Legion also hopes to gain a valuable victory in Argus. We will fully support your war to destroy the Fel Heart. To this end, we have brought several powerful light-forged mechas.

But with the number of demons in Nasrax Fortress, these mechas cannot win.

Therefore, we must unite! "

"Well said! The news you brought is indeed important. It shows me the sincerity of the Holy Light Legion, and I also feel that we must unite."

Blake nodded and spoke a rare human word.

But then the stinky pirate changed the subject, glanced at Old Fording and Uther in the crowd, and then turned back to Mograine and said:

"But I feel that it is overkill for the War Archbishop to stay in Krokuun to supervise the battle, so I take the liberty to invite you to accompany me to Mac'Aree to carry out a very important secret mission.

Believe me, this mission is absolutely as important as destroying the Fel Heart of Argus.

Come with me, Your Excellency.

I introduce you to Commander Jarod Shadowsong and discuss the details of this journey. By the way, your lieutenants and your guards will also accompany you.

This trip is yours. "
