Warcraft novel series

In the dark night, a bonfire dyed the sky red. Sitting in front of the bonfire was an old man. He was wearing a thick armor, which looked so heavy. A strange sword was inserted beside him. It was a strange object with grooves engraved on the sword and a skull symbol suspended on it, but it exuded a silver-white light. Sitting opposite the old man was a young man with short blond hair. He was wearing a simple leather vest, linen shorts, and a pair of small leather boots. He looked neat and tidy, especially his dark blue eyes with a hint of sadness.

The two sat quietly for a long time before the boy stood up and said,"Help me, come to me in the Dark Cathedral. The last kindness of the Lich King Arthas will be lost there, and he will guide me on the right path like before." Complete your final redemption as a Paladin, Mario Fordring.

The light flowed, and Old Fording sat up suddenly from the bed as if he had been fished out of the water, his whole body covered with sweat."It's that dream again," Old Fording covered his head and began to question the authenticity of such a dream. Ever since he entered Icecrown Glacier, the last territory of the Lich King, that strange dream has always surrounded him every night.

That was the memory of Arthas, a former human prince who, because of his arrogance for power, killed his father and friends and became a servant of the Lich King, the master of the Undead Scourge. He has little impression of the former prince Old Fording. If he has any impression, it is all indignation at his cruel undead and poisoning the living beings.

But now the prince came to him to plead for salvation. Old Fording suspected that there was an ulterior conspiracy behind this dream, but it was out of a paladin who held the most sincere faith in the Holy Light. He still decided to go to the Dark Church to have a look.

With this kind of attention in mind, he put on his armor and pushed open the door. The gloomy and biting north wind penetrated his thick armor and brought a slight chill to himself. Even as brave as Old Fording, he had to sigh. The ravages of time and the passing years have made this old body succumb to time.

"Lord Fording, you want to go there."A young man stopped abruptly, Old Fording. When he turned around, a young man with wheat-like golden hair and blue eyes walked up to him."Jock, I just want to go out for a walk. Bingguang Glacier is here. The penetrating north wind made my old bones stiff."

Old Fording recognized him, the leader of the newly promoted Silver Northern Expedition. In this army that intended to attack the Lich King, this young man reminded Old Fording of his dead son Tyran Fording. He deliberately Unintentionally, he always takes great care of this young man. For anything as dangerous as going to the dark church, he absolutely does not want Mike to participate.

Mike took off his cotton cloak and wrapped it around Old Fording,"The weather here is cold. , please pay more attention to your health. After all, you are our commander-in-chief. If you fall ill, it will affect the morale of the entire Northern Expeditionary Army."At this moment, Old Fording saw the full of care in Mike's eyes, and couldn't help but feel warm in his heart."Thank you, young people, the future will be yours. I will retire after this battle, and everything will depend on you."

"I hope it will be done soon. My parents died at the hands of the Undead Scourge. It is my honor to fight alongside you to avenge them."Mike's voice gave Old Fording some comfort. There are many people in the Silver Crusade who hate the Undead Scourge. This is why they can fight bravely regardless of danger. At this time, a Silver Crusade sentry He ran over, gave Old Fording and Mike a military salute and reported,"The Lich King's underground army's raid has begun again. Please make strategic arrangements."Old Fording showed a helpless smile. There have been countless such raids. It seems that the territory of the Lich King is indeed the place with the most dense natural disasters of the undead. All non-undead creatures will be subjected to endless suffering. Chase and fight until you are eliminated

"Leave it to me this time."That was Mike's clear and hearty voice. Old Fording knew that this young man wanted to share the heavy responsibilities on his shoulders. This was just an opportunity for the young man to exercise."Go, my child, may the Holy Light always protect you.."Old Fording watched Mike go away with approving eyes. He was indeed too tired. This fatigue did not come from the body, but from the spirit.

The dreams that kept harassing him every night kept invading him. , which made him exhausted. Old Fording's body trembled violently, and he half-knelt on the ground, covering his head, looking in pain. At this time, a voice penetrated his mind and said sadly,"Quickly , there is no time, please save me, for the sake of the Holy Light, come to the Dark Cathedral!"

Such a violent mental shock made Old Fording's spiritual world almost collapse. He couldn't bear the stinging feeling. He returned to the room and simply packed his luggage. With the Ashbringer, Old Fording decided to set off alone.. This was a reckless and somewhat irresponsible decision, allowing the Silver Crusade to act alone in Icecrown Glacier. That was not a responsible commander, but he had to do it, but reason told him that there was another way. Execute.

Walking into the dilapidated conference room with only a few old wooden tables, several silver Northern Expeditionary Army generals stood up and saluted Old Fording. Old Fording waved to them and told them to sit down. Then he asked," Is there any progress regarding the investigation of the Dark Church?"Ever since Old Fording began to dream about that wonder, he secretly ordered his men to thoroughly investigate the news about the Dark Church. Sure enough, he was not disappointed. He only saw a general reporting,"I have found out. It is located on the west side of Icecrown Fortress. Recently, priests from the Cursed Cult wearing cloaks have often appeared in the Dark Church, and some rituals have to be performed. Especially in the past two days, various magical instruments have been transported to the Dark Church. It seems that the ritual will begin in the next few days."

"Very good." Old Fording nodded, and then briefly told several generals about his dream. He said firmly,"If Arthas has not been completely swallowed by darkness, this will be the end of the world. The best opportunity to save his soul is also a good opportunity to completely destroy the undead natural disaster. I hope that a small number of people will sneak into the church and disrupt the ceremony."Old Fording's words were simple and clear. Although some of the Silver Northern Expedition generals questioned Old Fording's approach, they finally agreed to the plan. However, in the selection of candidates, Old Fording encountered some resistance to participate in person. Among them,

Mike said Clearly opposed, the reason is that the Silver Northern Expedition must be led by Old Fording, and the Silver Northern Expedition, which has an unstable foundation, will continue to face raids by undead natural disasters. Without Old Fording, the garrison will have no backbone and unstable morale. But Old Fording Fording was determined to participate in this operation. He patted Mike who raised objections and said,"Mike, you should be very clear about the purpose of this operation. War is not the only way to solve the problem."There was a trace of loneliness on Old Fording's face. That fierce voice was affecting his judgment all the time. He was also constantly suspecting that this matter might be a conspiracy. But he had no way to deceive his heart. He still had to make his own decision. Go and take a look.

After a brief silence, Old Fording regained his passionate momentum. He said loudly,"Each of you is a warrior under the Holy Light. The Holy Light saves everyone who deserves redemption. Artha Sri Lanka is no exception. I don't deny that there are some personal emotions involved, but I want to use these hands to witness the final fate of the Lich King, and also witness the final battle against the Scourge of the Undead."Speaking of this, Old Fording's eyes became a little moist, and some emotions were beyond Old Fording's control.

Everyone present fell into silence for a moment, and finally Mike broke the deadlock. Just listen to him say,"I respect your persistence, but no matter what, I want to guard you. Please let me go with you. In addition, let someone notify the Death Knights of Thassarian. If there is any accident outside, we must also ensure that Your safety."Old Fording was unable to refute Mike's proposal, so he could only agree."After Mike and I leave, Michelle, you will stay here as the top general of the Silver Northern Expedition. Carter, Schier, and Liott, you will assist us. He did a good job of defense and made sure not to take any rash actions."

When all the arrangements were made, Old Fording breathed a sigh of relief, but he still felt vaguely uneasy about Mike's participation. But at this moment, he had no reason to refuse, and could only hope that he would be himself. Thinking too much.

The bright morning was the time when Old Fording decided to set off. No one knew that the Supreme Commander of the Silver Northern Expedition and his cronies had left. Only Carter, who was given the important task by Old Fording,People stared into the distance with strange emotions in their eyes. They clearly remembered Old Fording's instructions. If I can't come back today, please lead me to complete the task of capturing Icecrown Fortress. At this moment, they could only pray silently that this warrior under the Holy Light could return safely.

When traveling through this base camp of the undead, one must be extremely careful, as any scent of the living will ignite the bloodthirsty passion of these brainless monsters. Old Fording and Mike used dark brown linen cloaks to cover their dazzling armor, and they chose the most remote and dangerous path to move forward. It was a not too steep mountain road that no one knew about on the side of the Dark Cathedral.

It was never a happy thing to have your palms in contact with those hard and cold stones, but when Mike's big hands wrapped in cloth stretched out to him, Old Fording still felt a touch of warmth. At the same time, he had to admit that he was really old. Looking at those clear and bright eyes, the uneasiness in Old Fording's heart increased even more.

Passing through the narrow mountain stream, the two people slipped to the side of the dark cathedral. As the name suggests, it is a majestic temple shrouded in darkness. The temple, which is made of unique dark ice rocks, inherently exudes a unique smell of death, which is the favorite smell of the undead. But those brainless creatures are not qualified to enter here. In the blue-grey corridor are the Cult of the Curse believers wearing dark purple cloaks. Even if their leader Kel'Thuzad has been defeated, it will not affect their order.
