"Your Majesty the Duke, ahead is Brackenwall Village, which is under the jurisdiction of the ogres. Should we go around it?" The adjutant put away his portable map and loudly asked Bolvar for instructions.
"No need, just run over," Bolvar waved his hand nonchalantly, "They are just a group of savage species, and it will be a disaster if they are left alone."
"As ordered," the adjutant raised his voice, "the front team speeds up, there is no need to stop! Everyone raises their spears and crushes them!"
"Hoo ha!" The cavalrymen drew out their spears and started to rush towards the Fern Wall Village like a torrent.
"Hey!" However, when the cavalry from the front team rushed into the village, they all tightened their reins.
"Holy light! What happened?" The storm soldiers looked at the ogre corpses lying on the ground in shock. Some of them had even begun to be highly decomposed. Countless crows flew up the tree to fight for the rotten meat.
They looked coldly at the uninvited guests who broke into their feast.
"Sir, it seems that someone saved these guys before us." Bolvar jumped off the horse and walked to a corpse and squatted down. "It is very rotten. Judging from the current weather, it should be more than a week."
The adjutant did not hesitate to open the injured abdominal cavity of the corpse and carefully studied the jagged wounds on it. "It should have been caused by a heavy weapon like an axe, and it can cut such a huge wound out of a rough-skinned ogre."
Wound, there should be no other races on the continent except orcs and tauren."
"What about the dragonmen?" Bolvar clapped his hands and stood up. "As far as I know, the warriors among them also like to use heavy chopping weapons. If you open the eyes of the more complete corpses and take a look, I believe you will find bigger ones.
"
"Eye?" The adjutant found a relatively complete corpse in confusion and brushed away a few wriggling maggots from the eye sockets. "Oh, my God! Their eyeballs are completely black, with only a trace of white.
There are no traces of it!”
"Obviously, someone used magic to suck their souls," Bolvar got on his horse and said with a frown, "It seems that things have become complicated. You should immediately send someone to report this situation to His Majesty the King and ask him to speed up.
come over"
"Yes, my lord," the adjutant bowed in response, "then shall we wait here for the arrival of His Majesty's Guards?"
"No, keep going. I want to see what gift the female dragon has prepared for me!" Bolvar said expressionlessly.
——At the same time, two recruits riding a horse were complaining to each other on the edge of the Dragon Swamp.
"It's all your fault, Kevin! You said you were looking for Mr. Regan, but you ended up here. What should we do now? We are completely lost now!" Sam shouted with a choked voice that was still changing his voice,
A sixteen-year-old boy can't help the dual torment of hunger and fear
"Okay, Sam," Kevin interrupted his complaint impatiently, "I'm not freezing and starving in this damn place with you. You can save some calories by shouting less, this damn place.
It can freeze people to death!"
Sam complained relentlessly: "You said you were going to find Lord Regan, but then you wanted to sneak into Duke Bolvar's team. You know how to hide in the back during a war, but now you are rushing to find other people's forward troops.
, I really don’t know what you think?”
"What can I think? What can I think?!" Kevin suddenly jumped off the horse and shouted at Sam, "My lame brother can inherit his father's inheritance! Even my brother who is less than two years old can get his uncle
title! Why should I have nothing! Is it because I was born a bastard! Is it because my mother is a despicable maid!"
Sam looked at his companion who was breathing heavily with some fear, and after a long time he said in a loud voice: "I know you want to do a career, but is there anything in the world that can be opportunistic? Even if you are a good cook,
You can become a royal chef, but you always dream about rising to the top in one step. How can there be such a good thing in the world?"
"You know nothing!" Kevin kicked away a cooing toad in anger, "Look at the newly appointed Baron, we didn't care about him when he was on the ship, and he didn't care about it when he got to Theramore.
Let me ask you, what kind of bullshit is this, sir, when no one has been seen for a long time even though we have to assemble to leave? If you work for such a person, you will not get ahead even after a hundred years!"
"But Duke Bolvar may not appreciate you," Sam didn't know how to comfort him, "We should still work honestly. No one can hide our true abilities."
"Humph, I finally see that all loyalty and justice are illusory. Only strong strength is the foundation for a life!" Kevin said excitedly, his cheeks turned red with anger, "Look at the person who is spurned by everyone.
Everyone is scolding the Lich King, but who is not afraid of it? It doesn’t matter whether he is righteous or evil, as long as he is respected by others, this life is worth it! I don’t even care about your reputation during your lifetime, and I also care about your reputation after death!"
Sam was about to retort when suddenly a sinister voice sounded from behind the two of them: "Interesting little guy, it's not in vain that I followed you for so long."
"Who!" Kevin turned around and pulled out his sword, but what he saw scared him so much that he almost peed his pants.
A skeleton wrapped in a gorgeous robe was watching him closely. Seeing Kevin's quick reaction, the skeleton actually grinned and made an expression that should be "laughing"!
"Good reflexes, and the courage to subvert secular morality," the skeleton slowly raised the staff in his hand, "Little guy, don't you need strength? Don't you want to gain awe? Then come with me, I
I can give it to you”
Kevin looked at his body slowly rising in disbelief. He shouted loudly as if he remembered something: "And my friend! Take him with you too!"
"No..." Little Sam shivered and pulled out the dagger, "You... you let him down, evil witch... lich!"
"Oh? What a smart kid, he actually knows the title of the Lich King's creation." The skeleton raised his right hand, and Sam, who was yelling, also rose into the air. "Although you are not suitable to join us, you can barely do it."
You can become a test subject for those scientists, I hope you won’t be transformed into abhorrent by them, hahaha”
The Lich laughed, opened a portal, and walked in with two prey.
Kevin bravely opened his eyes a crack, and saw countless blue halos wrapping their bodies. After a moment, they came to another space as if the scene had been changed.
"Sure enough, dogs can't change their habit of eating shit," a deep voice sounded like thunder over Kevin and Sam's heads, "As a lich, you actually suck human souls for food like those low-level undead, you Lich King
The lieutenant is really getting better and better, Kel'Thuzad."
"Oh, holy light," Sam slowly looked up along the neat and shiny scales. When his head and neck were raised at ninety degrees, he saw a huge dragon head with sulfur spraying from its nostrils.
"It's actually...a dragon!"
Onyxia raised her eyelids, ignoring the exclamations of these ants, and stretched out her huge dragon head in front of the Lich: "Answer me, Lich, since your master sent you to assist me, but you didn't
By catching two ants back, are you despising the dignity of the black dragon?"
"You misunderstood, dear Ms. Black Dragon," the chief lich of Northrend replied politely. It could be seen that he should have been a well-educated mage during his lifetime. "These two humans are the ones I plan to bring back to Northrend."
Gifts from De, one of which I plan to let him accept the baptism of darkness and join the Curse Sect, and the other one I plan to give to Professor Putricide. I heard that he has been short of some 'viable' test subjects recently."
"That's enough, Kel'Thuzad! Remember the mission that Arthas sent you here, and don't let these boring things interfere with the progress of the plan," the Black Dragon Queen roared impatiently.
"Of course, dear lady," the Lich Lord replied respectfully, "In fact, you don't have to worry at all. Most of your dragon wizards have successfully learned the simple summoning of the dead. I believe that in the near future, you will get one.
An invincible team of dragon necromancers"
"Hmph, it's better to say it than to sing it." Onyxia blew out a small ball of fire from her nose, "We all know each other's intentions. Your master just wants to use me to consume those mortals. If it weren't for me,
If you want those damn humans to go to hell, how can the noble black dragon form an alliance with you filthy species!"
Kel'Thuzad was not angry when he heard this, but quietly stepped aside, a strange smile appeared on the ferocious skull face.
"Cowardly reptile," Onyxia muttered and lay down, sweeping the two trembling humans aside, closing her eyes again and preparing to take a nap.
But the black dragon's rest did not last long. A dragon guard stumbled in, interrupting Onyxia's nap time: "Your Majesty, a large number of human troops have appeared outside the swamp, Lord Nenirissa.
They have been killed by them, and these humans are marching towards their lair!"
"What?" The Black Dragon Queen raised her dragon's head angrily, "Nenirissa is a loser! How can you not stop a mere mortal? Wake up all the children and come out with me to crush those ungrateful bugs!"
"Dear lady, why don't you do it yourself?" Kel'Thuzad's eyes flashed, and he stood up, "I am willing to share your worries and go meet those ungrateful mortals."
Onyxia looked at the Lich suspiciously: "When did you become so kind? I don't remember the undead being so kind-hearted in helping others."
"I'm making you laugh. Although my strength is insignificant compared to yours, it is enough to deal with those fragile humans. Moreover, before I come, His Majesty Arthas is ordered to help you deal with these mortals at all costs," Kel'Thuzad said respectfully.
"Okay," Heilong agreed with some hesitation, "I hope you are more useful than my incompetent subordinates."
Kel'Thuzad smiled slightly and led Kevin and Sam out of the black dragon's lair: "I will bring you a few ice knights for lunch, dear lady."
