Warcraft novel series

Nathanos looked back and saw Krumsh, who was asking his men to fight against a door leading to the inner court. Only when there were no Forgotten people around did he say,"You should avoid saying these words in the future. I am an example. If you If you don’t want to be captured and used as a prison, just be honest. The Dark Queen’s spies are everywhere." Seeing Nathanos’ kind reminder, Xavier nodded and said gratefully,"Okay, let’s take a step forward. Just take a look, there is no use thinking too much now."

At this moment, a crashing sound sounded, and the door that had been bothering Krumsh was shattered with one blow, and what appeared in front of everyone was the gradually narrowing spiral staircase. , such a small space is obviously not suitable for large troops to move forward, so Krumsh decided to leave most of the guards behind and respond in the open square. He completed the expedition with a few guards, Xavier and Nathanos..

The wails of souls are constantly coming from the narrow and dark passages, and along with the stench of corpses, this is the real hell."Orc, this is your first time to join the Forsaken's personal battle. I hope you can show combat prowess consistent with your status." Nathanos' gloomy voice obviously seriously irritated the orc's honor, even if That was an old orc."Betting on my orc honor, I can tell you that all orcs are born warriors, and I will prove it to you with actions!" Nathanos smiled contemptuously,"I look forward to it." As for the orcs, Nassar North has always looked down upon him. This may be related to his participation in the Dark Tide War against the orcs. Facing the former invaders, no one would forget the past and showed no care. Xavier also had an indelible memory in his heart. But he was a little less violent than Nathanos. He just heard him say,"There is no point in arguing now. If you have this strength, it is better to fight well and take actions to prove your loyalty to the Queen of Darkness." The two just The two people, who were about to quarrel, looked back at Xavier who was walking behind, as if they had never known Xavier before.

Xavier's heart felt a little heavy today. He didn't know why in this dark castle, Xavier always felt frightened. As if something bad was going to happen. But he didn't have the mind to care about this, because he received two intensely concerned looks at the same time, which made him raise his head and explain quickly,"I'm just talking casually, don't take it too seriously, just treat it as a way to adjust the atmosphere for the upcoming tense battle." Let's do it." An orc and a forgotten person said"Oh," at the same time. The two looked at each other and immediately turned back without looking at each other. They looked very funny, which made the cold atmosphere suddenly tense. Resolved a bit.

The ascending stairs suddenly became open after several turns. The same cold space had a few more bright colors. It was an open room with a white tablecloth filled with all kinds of sumptuous food. Of course, that was compared to Rich food for the undead, dried apples, rotten meat, and various porcelain utensils were neatly placed on the table. Of course, special candles that emitted green flames were also indispensable, but this place looked like a restaurant. Less angry. There was a translucent male ghost sitting at the end of the dining table, quietly looking at the three Xaviers who came to the room, as if they were the only visitors in the room.

At this moment, a fog rose, and an equally translucent man appeared in front of the man who looked like a nobleman with a group of translucent werewolves."Baron Silvaline gives you a choice, join or die." The translucent man lifted the cloak on his head. He was a middle-aged man with gray hair, but his face was very familiar to Xavier and the other three. So familiar."Arugao!" The traitor of Dalaran, for the sake of strength, you turned the entire people of Burning Wood Village into werewolves loyal to you. Now I will kill you to avenge those who died!" Baron Silvaline stood up with an angry roar. He pulled out the sword in his hand and rushed towards Arugao.

But this was a one-sided battle after all. Arugao just raised his hand slightly, and a magic ball condensed with rich dark power knocked Baron Silvaline away. The thick body drew a beautiful arc high and hit the wall before falling down. Obviously the God of Death has taken away his soul, but this does not affect his body to continue to live. Arugao raised his arm, and a black magic fell on the body of Baron Silvaline. In a moment, the man stood up again."You should thank me. I gave you a second life, of course as my servant."

Arugao let out a sinister laugh. It was obvious that he was extremely satisfied with his work, but his laughter immediately Suddenly, he found that the body of Baron Silvaline, who had stood up again as his servant, suddenly began to collapse and disintegrate. Finally, the power of the Holy Light made Silvaline refuse to be transformed into an undead from the depths of his soul, and his broken and cracked body turned into an undead spirit. A wisp of dust under the holy light dissipated into the infinite. But the faint gray soul left behind was still glaring at Arugao,"Arugao, I will keep watching you until the moment you die!" The voice that penetrated into the soul made Arugao frown, but He quickly came up with a way, and saw a purple-black hexagram magic circle appearing at the feet of Baron Silvaline as he silently recited a spell. In an instant, black chains bound Silvaline inside, and Arugao was proud of it. Said,"Let this chain of soul accompany you until the end of your life. This chain of darkness will strip away the power of your soul little by little until you completely disappear from this world, hahaha!" Aru laughed triumphantly. Gao disappeared into the dust, leaving only Silvaline's constant curses.

The fog dissipated in a moment, and everything returned to normal, except that this gorgeously decorated restaurant no longer existed. The floor was broken, there were traces of fighting everywhere, and the rusty swords were covered with dust. The only thing that was the same was The translucent Baron Silvaline, but he was bound by black chains. You lowered your head, and there was no expression in your dim eyes.

"I want to cleanse his soul. Xavier made a low voice. Nathanos and Krumsh, who also saw the illusion just now, did not stop Xavier. As priests, their vocation to purify souls should not be blocked. Seeing Xavier coming to Silvaline and raising his hands, holy light poured out from Xavier's hands. Slowly, the white light fell on Silvaline, and also illuminated this dark room. When the gentle When the holy light came into contact with Silvaline's body, the tortured baron let out a sigh of relief,"Thank you, a man who doesn't know your race. Although you have a dead body, I am sure you are not an undead." natural disaster."The baron, who had closed his eyes tightly, opened his eyes and looked at Xavier for the first time, and it was also the last time he looked at the man who saved his soul.

Xavier also cast a sincere look at him. As a priest, he felt that he could He was proud to save the souls of the dead. Slowly, the soul of this heroic man dissipated in the blessing of the holy light and went to where he should go.

Looking at the scene that happened in front of him, Nathanos couldn't help but sigh,"Xavier, you are too kind. You are not as kind as a forgotten person. If you were a human, I might not have the heart to kill you."Krumsh also had countless emotions, but he didn't say them out because he saw a trace of loneliness flashing in Xavier's eyes."If I were still a human being, none of this would happen again. I would only be with my lover. Living in a small town in the countryside, enjoying our short life, we will not know you."Xavier looked at Nathanos and Krumsh, his eyes a little erratic, but he did not stop his expression, just listen to him continue to say,"I am a cursed person, destined to suffer all my life. But I chose a career that helps others solve their pain. If it hadn't been for that undead natural disaster, I might have continued to be ignorant. Xavier said in a tone of voice,"If one day we become enemies, please don't show mercy to me. Death is my best escape.""Although Nathanos didn't know what Xavier wanted to express, he vaguely guessed that this was a hint from Xavier about the future. He just heard him say loudly,"No matter what the future holds, you will be my friend. Even if one day you become my enemy, I will try my best to redeem your soul." in Nathanos’ voice.Full of sincerity and calmness, this makes Krumsh, as an orc, seem a little at a loss. As one of the few orcs among the Forgotten, he has never had any sense of existence, and has no deep relationship with Xavier, but he has already felt the deepest feelings for him in his heart. Xavier completely agreed."Let's go, a fierce battle is still waiting for us." The orc's unique rich and hoarse voice broke the brief silence, allowing the three of them to once again set foot on the road to the deeper levels of Shadowfang Castle.

The night was infinitely dark, but when dawn finally came, three generals were leading the way. The progress of the Forsaken Crusade was much faster. As they went deeper into Shadowfang Castle, the three people were more and more surprised. Duo, this is not a castle at all, it is already a laboratory of undead natural disasters, with all kinds of undead creatures. If the Lich King had not returned all the forces to Northrend, Xavier and others would even think that this It was the Lich King who opened a second battlefield in Silverpine Forest.

"What does this Arugal want to do, to become the second Lich King?"The more Krumsh looked, the more frightened he became. He even had the intention of reporting what he saw to Orgrimmar, but when the arrogant and domineering face of little Hellscream appeared in front of his eyes, he gave up. This idea came to mind. A ray of light appeared in front of the spiraling stairs, and the sunlight leading to the corridor between the two towers was particularly dazzling. Of course, the danger contained in it was also frightening. The overwhelming gargoyles swarmed in Then, the deafening sound of flapping wings made Xavier raise the Dawnbringer in his hand alertly."Block the door and don't let them rush in. The melee professions guard the rear and be careful of enemy encirclement. The archers are ready to shoot.""Krumsh's series of orders were quickly executed, and Nathanos expressed his intentions directly with actions. The bow and arrow turned into a purple-black light and shadow and shot out. There was a sound of metal rubbing against stones. After the sound, the exploding stones scattered in all directions. At this moment, other archers, led by Nathanos, also raised their bows and arrows, and the tide of arrows perfectly sniped the crazy influx of gargoyles. A few The gargoyles that have entered the inner court will not be in danger for the time being as long as Xavier and others can eliminate them.

"I finally withstood it," Krumsh let out a deep breath and looked at Nathanos, who was skillfully drawing a bow and firing arrows, and Xavier, who was wielding the Dawnbringer to continuously repel the gargoyle invasion, with a look in his eyes. This is a pertinent affirmation. In terms of control of the overall situation and personal combat effectiveness, these two people are definitely above Krumsh. Although the glory of the orcs cannot be desecrated, the real gap reminds Krumsh of his youth. At that time, that passionate young orc once wielded a battle ax and shuttled between countless enemies.

As one of the few old orcs who still survived after participating in the battle against the Burning Legion, he had too many and rich memories. In that blood and His biggest gain from surviving on the battlefield of fire was how to observe every subtle change on the battlefield. He found that the few gargoyles that leaked in obviously attacked Xavier much more often than the other Forgotten ones. This is definitely not a coincidence for these low-level intelligent gargoyles. Is there any conspiracy?

Krumsh approached Nathanos, who was concentrating on drawing his bow and shooting arrows, and patted him on the shoulder and said,"Pay attention." Xavier, these gargoyles seem to be coming for Xavier."Nathanos, who was fighting with all his heart, hated being interrupted at this time. He said in a low voice impatiently,"Xavier's fighting power is much stronger than you think. An existence that can defeat the Lich King seems to be Don't worry about an incompetent orc."The obvious provocation in Nathanos's voice made Krumsh frown, but he still stepped back. He didn't want to break the balance when everyone was fighting with all their heart. At this moment, he just wanted to It was because he thought too much.

But it turned out that Krumsh's worries were not unnecessary. After the number of gargoyles decreased significantly, a dark red gargoyle appeared in front of the Forgotten Crusade Army. After this kind of gargoyle is killed, its exploded body will release a red liquid. All creatures contaminated will slow down significantly. Only the one that attacks Xavier is a light green gargoyle. , the green liquid that exploded after being hit by Xavier greatly increased Xavier's movement speed, so that he could kill this monster more easily.
