My Frostmourne can't be so cute

No one can tell the origin of human warlocks clearly; in other words, at the moment of stepping into the arcane realm, every wizard, whether it is a human or a high elf, a dwarf or a dwarf, can become a warlock.That's right, human warlocks are differentiated from the group of mages.

Kel'Thuzad, the right-hand man of Ner'zhul and Arthas in the original time stream, was a wizard who tended to become a warlock.Compared to the high elves that can be satisfied by using arcane energy, humans have never been satisfied with the exploration of this field.

However, arcane magic is not omnipotent. At the same time, the use of arcane magic will cause rifts in the void. Those mages who are weak in their bodies but possess powerful arcane energy are the delicious delicacy of the demons lurking in the void.Many wizards paid the price of being attacked and killed by demons in order to use arcane magic.

However, in this bloody communication channel with demons, humans do not always play the role of being harvested; sometimes, the space rifts created by wizards through the use of arcane magic are not enough, and those demons cannot easily pass through. Therefore, they can only use sweet words and ethereal promises to seduce the mages of Azeroth and further expand the rift, so that these guys can travel through the void to come here and enjoy the souls of these mages.

Although somewhat reluctant, Alsace still had to admit that compared to the honest and kind tauren, the upright and stubborn dwarves, humans are indeed slightly cunning; at the same time, humans are very good at the past or successful or In the experience of failure, a creature that draws material that is beneficial to him.

Chapter 209 The Dwarf City of Grim Batol

After so many wizards were harvested by the sharp blades that suddenly protruded from the void, the latecomers already knew how to guard against these evil guys.Fewer and fewer wizards are tempted/confused by demons in the void, and take the initiative to expand the gap in space.A mage like Kel'Thuzad with strong obsession and enough courage even dared to bargain with the evil spirits in the void in exchange for the knowledge and power he needed.

According to Arthas’s knowledge of Kel’Thuzad, the reason why this mage took the path of studying necromantic spells and achieved something without the help of the Lich King Ner'zhul was because he learned from the demon in the void , Used a bad check to cover part of the use of necromantic spells.

If inferred from time, Kel'Thuzad should have passed through the demon in the void by now.But Arthas didn't worry too much about it. As long as there was no call and enchantment from the Lich King Ner'zhul, Kel'Thuzad shouldn't have followed the original path of time.

Moreover, quite a few of the mages in Dalaran were performing the same actions as Kel'Thuzad; as far as Arthas knew, there were even a part of the mages that focused on the magic of "summoning creatures from the void".In fact, everything summoned from the void can be attributed to the category of "demons", but not all demons are eager for blood and destruction like the legend.

Of course, dealing with the devil was originally an act of walking on the edge of the abyss. There has never been a mage who can always have the upper hand in communicating with the devil; once the mage is swallowed by the greed and obsession in his heart, the demons will gain fresh souls. The opportunity came.

At the moment when the orcs belong to the Burning Legion, although the number of orcs’ warlocks is small, communication with demons is much more convenient than with humans, and the cost is much smaller. Therefore, in terms of strength, orcs The warlock is far more than human.However, Arthas's attention only flashed over the orc warlock, and his gaze turned to behind the orc warlock.

Following the orc warlock closely were a few strong orc warriors; and what really surprised Arthas were the two huge and robust creatures at the end of the orc team.The crocodile-shaped head on the neck, the protruding spikes on the back, the long striped tail, sharp teeth and claws almost made Arthas think that these two monsters were dragons.

However, unlike dragons, these two monsters, like humans and orcs, walk upright; they also hold a huge blade-shaped weapon on their right hand, which looks...looks like a humanoid. Dragon.The height of nearly four meters, the strong knotted muscles on his arms, and the thick scaly armor--Alsace felt that the ground fighting power of this monster was definitely more than that of a young dragon.

"What is this?" Vereesa asked in a low voice.Mograine couldn't answer, but stared nervously at the orcs that passed by them.Although the invisibility technique released by the fiancee of His Royal Highness Prince Arthas was effective, Mograine felt a huge threat from the two monsters.

"I don't know." Arthas asked himself if he knew something about dragons and orcs, but he had never seen such a monster.The team of orcs hurried away. Arthas took his gaze back from the two monsters, greeted Frostmourne, Vereesa and Mograine, before the door was closed, and quickly sneaked into the orcs. In the cottage.

In the orc's cottage, just like an ordinary orc camp, there is no tent. Because it is approaching dusk, a large number of orc warriors are gathering around the big pot of soup, waiting to distribute dinner.A wide passage was left in the middle of the cottage, which stretched upward along the direction of the mountain range, and the end of the road was hidden at the end of the mountain corner.

Needless to think, this road is naturally the only way to Grim Batol’s gate.Because the orcs were having a dinner together, Arthas and his group walked on this road without encountering any obstacles.However, although he successfully infiltrated the orc cottage and was moving towards his destination, Alsace's face was full of clouds.

What those two monsters are, Arthas does not know; but there is no doubt that this monster should have been born in this orc base called Grim Batol, and the obvious appearance characteristics make Arthas understood that the birth of this monster was inseparable from the red dragon here.

Although it is not that the larger the warrior the stronger, but like the two monsters just now, Arthas felt that even a top warrior like Muradin would find it difficult to defeat this kind of thing in a one-on-one battle; and " There are only two fighters at the level of "King of the Hill" in the entire Ironforge dwarven kingdom.

Can't delay any longer-Arthas raised his head and looked at Grim Batol's door ahead.After bypassing the corner of the mountain, a gate cut directly on the mountain appeared in front of Alsace.Unexpectedly, Grim Batol’s door was not closed, but left open. There seemed to be no light inside. There was only a dark silence, like the blood mouth of a giant beast, waiting to swallow the prey sent to the door. .

However, Arthas did not hesitate at all, took a few steps quickly and stepped into this completely strange city of dwarves-at least, before the orcs get more combat support from the red dragon, completely unravel the fog. Right!Frostmourne naturally doesn't know what fear is, she will follow where the owner is.

Vereesa hesitated for a moment, but Arthas had already entered the door. Although he had a very ominous premonition, Vereesa had only to tidy up his waist, and he held the quiver without many arrows. His longbow seemed to be drawing strength from the weapons that had been with him, bravely following behind Arthas and stepping into Grim Batol.

Unlike the imaginary Longtan Tiger Den, after entering Grim Batol, although it is a long dark corridor, the surroundings have been quiet and there seems to be no danger.Quietly listening to the breathing of her "team" members, Vereesa slowly let go of her nervousness.

However, this peace did not last long. Soon, at the end of the tunnel, a little fire came.Alsace's group speeded up their pace and passed through the corridor, and a magnificent complex of buildings unfolded in front of everyone.If we say which race in Azeroth has the most advanced technology, the three small races of dwarf, dwarf, and goblin will definitely argue; but when it comes to the level of architecture, no race dares to compare with dwarves.

Chapter 210 The Caveman Who Stole Eggs

If there are architects of humans or other races who think that his skills are comparable to dwarves, then it must be because he has not been to Ironforge, or the Grim Batol that Alsace they are seeing now .Aside from other factors, it is not something that human craftsmanship can do just to carve out a city no smaller than the King City of Lordaeron on the entire mountain.

Moreover, the dwarves are more than just rough buildings made of stone.The front of Alsace is a wide bluestone street; unlike the streets of humans, on this street, the dwarves have also carefully carved out delicate patterns.On the opposite side of the street is a residential building that has obviously been abandoned for a long time.

At the end of the street extension, there is a vast square. In the other three directions of the square, there is a corridor leading to other areas of the city.Unlike the dark passages where Alsaces were located, there were raging torches burning everywhere in Grim Batol's city-although the city was very silent, it was not dark.

So far, Alsace has not seen a living creature; perhaps because of the mountains, there are almost no mosquitoes in this city."It's so pretty!" Vereesa sighed softly, clutching her pink lips.Although I heard Sister Alleria and Sister Sylvanas mentioned that Silvermoon City is also a very magnificent building, Vereesa has not had a chance to visit there yet!

Although Dalaran is also a magnificent city, Vereesa did not stay there for a long time and was "seconded" by the Master Khadgar from Prince Kael'thas.Compared with the houses that Vereesa usually lives in and made from golden maple trees, the houses built by these dwarves are not only tall, but also straight and wide. It seems that the dwarves have not considered it. Given their short height, even ten Individuals can hardly reach the ceiling of the houses they built.

Although Arthas was also amazed by the grandeur of the dwarf city, he still remembered his mission.The little prince turned to Frostmourne, who was looking left and right, and asked, "Xiaoshuang, can you feel that there is a red dragon in this city?"

Frostmourne retracted his curious gaze, took his master's hand, closed his eyes, and spread his huge soul power throughout the city.After a while, Frostmourne opened his eyes, shook his head and said, "No, Master. Most places are empty and there is nothing; there are some places where my power can't penetrate."

Frostmourne kept her mouth flat and was a little frustrated-she didn't complete the task assigned to her by her master. Xiaoshuang is really useless!But Arthas obviously thought of more places-since there is something blocking the temptation of Frostmourne's soul tentacles, doesn't it just mean that what Arthas and others need to find are in these places that they can't detect. ?

Thinking of this, Arthas gave Frostmourne an encouraging smile, squeezed her cold and soft little hand, and said, "Xiaoshuang, those areas that you can't detect, in which direction?" Frostmourne got the master. He said happily, "Well...From that square, go through the second tunnel, turn another street, and then go through another tunnel!"

Arthas was not a road idiot, but poor he could not see the places Frostmourne was talking about, so he was confused.Frostmourne saw the ignorant look on his master's face, and immediately volunteered to pull Arthas toward the square at the end of the street.

At this moment, the hustle and bustle of Grim Batol's streets was suddenly broken, and a scream of "wow wow wow" came from far away from the street.Arthas was taken aback, Mograine and Vereesa had already drew out their weapons and became alert.But Arthas was still calm-at least the spell of Frostmourne hadn't expired. Even if an accident happened, several people were still safe.

As the noise drew closer, Alsace finally saw the source of the sound against the backdrop of a large number of torches on both sides of the street.From the side of the square, in the "second corridor" that Frostmourne refers to, a group of short humanoid creatures ran out of the corridor, screaming and hurried across the square, along the street towards Alsace. Wait for someone to run over here.

These creatures that are shouting "wow wow wow" are very ugly; their face is an irregular ellipse, and the facial features distributed on it are like being smashed by a heavy hammer. It is completely dislocation. ; On the chin, there is still a long white beard, and in his hand is waving a long-handled wooden stick with a stone bound at the top. Around his waist is rags and animal skins that I don’t know where I picked up. It looks even bigger than those orcs. original.

As soon as Arthas thought of the human enemy orcs from this primitive creature, those green-skinned monsters had already appeared.A group of heavily armed orc warriors also screamed, following the little monsters and ran out of the tunnel, brandishing the heavy weapons in their hands, and chasing them.

"What are they talking about? Those orcs." Arthas asked Frostmourne.Although Frostmourne’s orc language was not good, she still tried to distinguish the vague orcs’ shouts, and then translated to her master: “They seem to be saying... thief……"

Stealing eggs?——Alsace was stunned for a moment, and then he found the key to the matter——Among those wildly running primitive weirdos, the slightly taller little monster at the head was holding a white giant egg in his hands. The legs under his feet ran wildly like a runner, and in a blink of an eye he was very close to Arthas and others.

What kind of drama is going on?——Alsace was puzzled.However, such a big egg...Thinking of the behemoths named "Dragons" living here, Arthas felt that he probably understood the truth.Although I don't know how these ugly little dwarves passed the double blockade of the orcs and the red dragon, this giant egg is undoubtedly the red dragon queen's egg that they stole from the heavy ground that the soul tentacles of Frostmourne could not penetrate.

"Wow!" As he ran, the primitive dwarf who was holding the dragon egg suddenly stopped, with a loud roar, from the houses on the side of the street, dozens of dwarf monsters in the same costume sprang out quickly. .These monsters waved their crude weapons fiercely and rushed towards the orcs who had not yet figured out the situation.

Although the orcs were fully armed, they wore heavy plate armor. After a long run, their physical strength had already declined severely; and these new little monsters had obviously been waiting for work for a long time.In this case, facing enemies with a gap of several times the number, the orc warriors were quickly slaughtered.

Chapter 211 Dragon Egg Rescue Plan

This battle between the monster and the invader happened suddenly and ended quickly.Not far from Arthas and others, several little monsters pierced the sharp stones in their hands like daggers into the throat of the last orc warrior.

Blood splashed on the bluestone ground in the street, and even a few drops were stained on Vereesa's leather boots.Although a little sick, Vereesa made no sound.Arthas watched these little monsters who had suddenly changed from being chased to hunter, and remembered their approximate identity-caveman.

"Where there are dwarves, there must be such brutal monsters"-this is what Muradin and Arthas said when talking about the lives of dwarves in the original time flow.The favorite thing dwarves do, besides forging and ale, is to dig the mountains to find the treasures and secret monuments buried deep underground.

However, even in the dark underground, there are some creatures living; here, there are giant maggots without eyes, armadillos who like to sit up and sleep, beetles and strange fishes that can survive in the hot lava, of course there are also This kind of humanoid creature that the dwarves hated-caveman.

The exploration of the underground by humans is too simple, so the caveman has not appeared in the records of any anthropologist; if it hadn't been for Muradin, he would have been half a mentor and half a friend, Arthas would not have understood. This kind of creature that sneaks underground.

The dwarves don’t know where the cavemen came from, but in the process of digging the mountains, once they dig through the cave where the cavemen are, these brutal monsters will wield their primitive weapons. Called to rush out to tear the dwarf craftsmen and archaeologists at work to pieces.

Although the dwarves have a large enough advantage in strength and equipment, the cavemen have a huge number and fierce fighting spirit.In this way, the struggle between these two races has continued to this day since the day the dwarves began to dig underground.

"Any place where dwarves exist, there will be cavemen." Arthas repeated Muradin's words in a low voice, looking at the primitive monsters that were stripping the thick plate armor from the orcs, and felt that Muradin's words really made sense. ——Even in Grim Batol, a dwarf city that has been abandoned for many years, cavemen still exist, don’t they?

"Alsace, they...they..." Vereesa's voice trembled, and suddenly grabbed Arthas's shoulder.From the high elf ranger's delicate fingers, the immense force that did not match his appearance caused Arthas to frown slightly.But Alsace didn't say anything. Instead, he patted the back of Vereesa's hand lightly and said, "Vereesa...If you are uncomfortable, you can...turn your face away..."

Despite this, Alsace himself felt a little unwell now.I thought that the cavemen stripped off the orc’s plate armor because they wanted these metal armors to replace their crude animal skins and rags, but I didn’t expect... several cavemen were stripping away from Alsace’s group. Behind the plate armor of the nearest orc, unexpectedly... it rushed to the orc's body like this, grinning at the dislocation of the big mouth, and biting the orc's green body.

"Oh..." Within a day, Vereesa squatted on the ground for the second time, retching.Mograine's face was also a bit ugly-although it was not the first time I saw the scene of flying flesh and blood, he was already accustomed to killing and death, but it was the first time Mograine had seen such a barbaric scene of raw cannibalism. Arrived--Although the orcs who were being swallowed alive were humanity's greatest enemy orcs, Mograine still found this scene a bit difficult to see.

Frostmourne didn't care about it. The life-and-death struggle between mortals was originally a game of ant fights from the perspective of the little magic sword of the gods; for Arthas, although it was unacceptable from a conceptual point of view, it was already long Having adapted to the hatred and ghouls in the Scourge, he did not have such a serious reaction as Vereesa and Mograine.

What Arthas was even more interested in was why these little monsters would steal this dragon egg.At this moment, the leading caveman, after yelling for a few words, all his fellows who were busy gnawing on the corpse of the orc on the ground stopped their eating behavior and gathered around the caveman.

"Wow...wow!" The caveman leader raised the dragon egg in his hand, shouting something loudly."Wow, wow, wow!" the cavemen cheered.Alsace looked confused, until the cavemen climbed up the houses on both sides of the street like Arhats, broke a few torches, placed the burning cloth-wrapped sticks on the bluestone ground, and then placed the huge When the dragon egg of Wang was placed in the middle of the fire, he realized the real purpose of these cavemen-they stole the eggs of the Red Dragon Queen, actually for... a meal?
