Warcraft novel series

As the celebrating Forsaken guards retreated, only a few generals could remain with Sylvanas. Seeing the alliance's defeated and decadent look, Sylvanas couldn't help but smile triumphantly. But the laughter suddenly stopped. The astonished Sylvanas looked at the snow-white blade coming out of her heart. She was so shocked that she could hardly believe it was true. He did not look back, because the man who dared to assassinate him had already turned in front of him. The old gray gentleman's robe still has the same humble and ghostly smile as before, but his eyes are full of the victor's playfulness.

"Arugao! How dare you assassinate the Queen!"Krumsh let out a wild roar unique to the orcs, while Xavier and Nathanos expressed it more directly with actions. Two long swords, red and white, were staggered to strangle the traitor in front of them. But they Obviously disappointed, a golden protective shield wrapped Arugao's body in it. With the sound of two metal collisions, Arugao's useless Xavier and Nathanos said,"The master's protection is not there." People can break, my mission has been completed, if you still miss me, you can come to Shadowfang Castle to find me, the gate of the dead will always welcome you."As Arugal laughed wildly, his whole person gradually became transparent, and finally disappeared completely.

Everything happened so suddenly that Xavier and Nathanos had no way of stopping the instigator from leaving, but they obviously didn't. It’s too late to worry about these illusory things, because Sylvanas’ life is nearing the end at this moment, and the helpless orc warlord Krumsh shouted,"Quick, someone come and save him!"Krumsh, who was already infinitely panicked, was obviously in disarray, but I'm afraid even he didn't believe that anyone could revive a person who died for the second time.

At this moment, Xavier and Nathanos were also squatting. Beside the fallen Sylvanas, their hearts tightened as they watched Sylvanas gradually lose her life breath. When Xavier forcefully pulled out the weapon that had penetrated Sylvanas's body, When holding the dagger, the lavender liquid dripped down the sharp dagger to the ground, a faint white smoke rose, and the originally tender green lawn immediately turned into black. At this moment, Xavier's heart suddenly became cold. That was poison enough to kill the Forgotten. He had seen this poison in Faranir's laboratory. He once swore that he never wanted to see this poison spread in the world, but today it was used on On the Queen of the Forgotten.

Seeing Xavier helplessly shake his head, Nathanos immediately knew the seriousness of the situation. His first consideration was to immediately block the news of the Queen's death. God knows those alliances knew that the Dark Queen was dead. , will they come back immediately? Even if they directly besiege the Undercity, Nathanos will not be surprised. There is no possibility of giving up such an excellent opportunity.

But before Nathanos can take action, a A disembodied voice broke the brief silence,"Let us resurrect him again."With the appearance of this voice, a light blue halo shone in the air, and the three people raised their heads and looked into the sky. Only two hazy figures, one black and one white, appeared in the sky above Sylvanas."The Val'kyr twins. Xavier muttered in a low voice. He was more familiar with this name than anyone else, but what he was most concerned about at the moment was how the Val'kyr brought back by Sylvanas from Northrend could resurrect him. I saw this Two illusory figures fell next to Sylvanas, emitting a faint white halo, and in an instant a white and black current was injected into Sylvanas' body."Exchanging one life for another is great. Creator, let us be your attendants forever. Death is only the beginning of a short period, and darkness is destined to be replaced by dawn."The black Val'kyr began to chant a spell, while the white Val'kyr whispered softly,"Goodbye, Your Majesty the Queen, I hope you can cherish the second life that we sacrificed all our strength for you."Gradually the two Val'kyr became insubstantial, and the strong illusory power caused Sylvanas' already weak breath of life to return to his body at a faster pace.

Looking at all this, Xavier understood , this is a kind of forbidden magic that sacrifices one's own life in exchange for the lives of others, but he doesn't know why he feels pity for the Val'kyr. Is it worth sacrificing his life for the Dark Queen who follows him for a short time? But Xavier doesn't know Yes, once a creature like Val'kyr signs a contract with his master, he will follow his master at all costs. If the master dies, they will do whatever it takes to save the master's life. Death is part of the contract for them.. In their view, death is letting them return to nothingness, waiting for the new king to call again.

The light finally gradually dimmed, but at the same time, along with the complete disappearance of the Val'kyr twins, Sylvanas returned The breath of life rose proudly, and Sylvanas, who was lying on the lawn, seemed to be asleep, snoring sweetly. Everything happened so suddenly, and before everyone could react, Sylvanas had already slowed down. Slowly opened his eyes and struggled to sit up. Looking at the shining light in his eyes, the three of them could conclude that Sylvanas had fully recovered at this moment, without any trace of weakness. They couldn't help but sigh at Val'kyr How powerful is the resurrection spell obtained by sacrificing oneself?

"What kind of power is this, what a powerful power I will pursue! Hahaha!"Looking at her rejuvenated body, Sylvanas let out a mocking and arrogant laugh. Such a sound made both Xavier and Nathanos feel very uncomfortable, because they seemed to feel something from this sound. A hint of danger. This is the uncertainty about the path Queen Sylvanas has chosen, a dangerous path. Sylvanas is destined to embark on a path similar to that of the Lich King. At this moment, Xavier and Nathano Sidu had the same feeling.

But they obviously knew that this was not the time to think about this. The two of them helped Sylvanas stand up. At this moment, the Queen of Darkness regained some consciousness, and he looked fiercely at Shadowfang in the distance. Castle, eyes almost bleeding."Arugao, I will use actions to let you know the consequences of betraying the Queen of Darkness."He signaled to Xavier and Nathanos not to support him, took two steps back, and said to the three of them in as majestic a manner as possible,"Now, in the name of the Queen of Darkness, I order you to attack Shadowfang Castle immediately. Slaughter all the creatures you see and leave no trace alive. I want Arugao to know the price to pay for daring to betray me!"

Sylvanas's voice was hard and cold. This was his usual style. The Dark Queen's punishment never allowed a moment's delay. For such an order, the three of them rarely maintained a consistent style."May the darkness always protect you."The efficiency Sylvanas wanted was quickly achieved. There was destined to be a war without a winner in the ancient Shadowfang Castle. The gray, old castle, exposed to the sea breeze, had a faint There was a fishy smell, and moss had grown on the originally clean walls because they had not been cleaned for too long. Shadowfang Castle, a castle belonging to Baron Sylvalline, was abandoned after it was occupied by Arugal. However, this struggle between command and rebellion The baron's good days have come to an end. Because of the assassination of Queen Sylvanas, he was fully punished by the Queen of Darkness. The crusade army composed of Xavier, Nathanos and Krumsh had already begun with a large group of troops. They gathered in front of this ancient castle.

The leaders were Krumsh and Nathanos. Xavier, who thought he was not good at commanding wars, retreated to the second line. But even so, watching these hundreds of people newly awakened The Forgotten, Xavier doesn’t think they really have the ability to fight. Look at those Forgotten who still have the smell of humanity. They hit them with almost broken long swords, covered with rust, and some even used them. Holding the pitchforks used for farm work, you can't even think about whether such an army has combat effectiveness.

But Sylvanas forcefully sent such an army to his capable generals. Is he right? Has the level of trust in our personal abilities reached this high level? Xavier thought to himself, but did not slow down. The somewhat desolate Shadowfang Castle is somewhat realistic except for the two dragon-shaped stone sculptures in front of the moat. It is dilapidated and desolate. The appearance was beyond Xavier's imagination. But that's not the point. It was surprisingly quiet here, with almost no breath of life. This was what surprised the three of Xavier.

But Crewe, who was familiar with the rules of the battlefield , Mush still decided to be cautious. He assigned most of his soldiers to guard the outside of Shadowfang Castle, and also sent some soldiers to go inside the castle to inquire about the situation. But time passed by, and the soldiers sent in to inquire were None of the personnel returned, which made Krumsh a little alert, and the old green face was a little tangled. Just when he was about to send a second wave of soldiers to inquire. Nathanos stopped him,"Don't It's a waste of time. Those miscellaneous troops will not have the slightest chance to escape when they encounter a truly powerful existence. Do you think the Queen of Darkness will let you waste her army resources endlessly like this?"Nathanos's expression was cold and calm, and he looked at Krumsh with deep indifference in his eyes.

Such a provocation seriously stimulated the glory of the orcs, even if it was an old orc loyal to the Dark Queen, who behaved angrily The blushing Krumush immediately retorted,"Battles are about killing people. If the Queen of Darkness doesn't want unnecessary sacrifices, she shouldn't send such a group of miscellaneous troops to the battlefield. As a ranger general, you shouldn't. Don't you know how much role such a force can play in this kind of critical battle?"Krumsh almost roared, but it still didn't make Nathanos change his mind at all. He pulled out the red sword on his back and walked straight to the suspension bridge leading to the interior of the castle. As he walked, he said,"Then I will use Actions prove to you that sometimes one person can change the pattern of the entire battle."

"This is reckless behavior on your part!"Looking at Nathanos, who was clearly going to go it alone, Krumsh's anger could no longer be suppressed. As a military governor who led troops all year round, he knew more about the war and the army than he knew about his family. At this moment, the war was still going on. Internal conflicts appeared before it even started. This war was considered a failure, or in other words, it was lost in terms of momentum. But before Krumsh could get angry again, Xavier stepped forward and tapped Krumush. The thick shoulder armor followed the same path as Nathanos,"Sometimes a small number of personnel responsible for investigation work is enough. Please hold the battle for us outside. I will send a signal to inform you if necessary."

"Xavier! How could you!"Krumsh was speechless for a moment. It was enough to see a tribal general so reckless, let alone a tribal hero. Although he knew that Xavier was single-handedly challenging the Lich King and also... There is a terrifying possibility of winning in battle, but he is Sylvanas's right-hand man after all. If something goes wrong with him, his position as Supervisor of the Forgotten Army will probably come to an end, although Sylvanas will not What to do with him, but being sent back to Orgrimmar is certain. He has a deep understanding of the fiery temper of little Hellscream, and he knows what consequences he will face if he really lets such a thing happen. But he has no other choice at the moment Choice, looking back at this bunch of soldiers and generals, the old orc shook his head helplessly. It is indeed impossible to achieve anything with such a team. The only thing he can do is to believe in Xavier and Nathano. Si Neng was able to succeed immediately.
