Battle of Northrend (3)

They flew away, and we were still going to go back on horseback. Yes, compared to their specialized dragon mounts, we were not so lucky because we brought a lot of cavalry over here, so we could only go back wherever we should come.

In fact, in such a vast place, it is definitely a place worth camping, especially now it is late at night. Now you may be able to return to the camp in the early morning, so there may be more reason for everyone to stay here tonight for the night. And the dwarf in front of us prepared a pretty good place for us.

A good place... I thought so. Maybe there is no threat from the undead, or the relationship between me and Sylvanas is not as good as that, I will definitely come up with this idea, but now I may not even be joking like this. After all, the snow reflects the moonlight and allows us to see the way back clearly, let alone the rangers who often walk at night. So in silence, everyone turned to the direction from the south.

The extremely deserted road back naturally made me feel so long. Especially watching Sylvanas and her rangers gallop in such a cold world made me want to care in my heart, but what can I do? I think she would never get on my horse no matter what.

In the early morning, we finally returned to the base. Except for some soldiers who were watching on the simple post, almost everyone returned to the boat to rest. After eating some food, they all returned to the room on the boat. Yes, it was getting late. But just as I was about to take off my clothes and go to bed, a familiar strange light appeared in front of me, and I knew very well what kind of magic this was.

I thought it would be Jaina because they used almost the same technique. But when I lit the oil lamp and observed it carefully, I found that the person was Crassus, and I couldn't hide my disappointment.

"Althuss, you seem to be looking forward to her more." Master Red Dragon smiled slightly when he saw me. What was very puzzled for me was that he didn't know when this crawler face began to fall in love with jokes.

"Speak up if you have anything, I still have to sleep, Master."

"I thought you couldn't sleep." He said so, and took out a map with a fluorescent light that showed magic like a gem.

"Well, you won, Crasus." I stared at the thing and guessed, "I think this is Caregus's masterpiece."

"Your judgment is correct..." Crasus nodded and continued his narrative. "The enemy is not very powerful, and they also have some very difficult problems."

"A tough question, are there other expeditionary forces?"

"No, it's some native spider-men who have been fighting with them, and the main force of the undead is working to destroy those cunning creatures."

"You mean, we can fight the undead with them."

"I wouldn't recommend you to do this even if you didn't call half of Uther's elite troops."

“Why?”

"It's simple, because they are not trustworthy."

Faced with my questions, Crasus answered my question very simply, and it was obvious that there was a hidden truth.

"It seems you've communicated with them."

"Yes, we have had some wars. And our dragon clan has also made some sacrifices."

"That's it..." I thought that it might be that quicksand battle, but since he didn't want to talk to me about this, there was no need for me to understand that thing that had nothing to do with this action at this time. So I continued to listen carefully to his continued.

"We shouldn't need to go with the biological alliances that don't trust outsiders now to defeat the undead scattered everywhere. If we unite them, and when we win, he might even bite us..."

Crassus still promotes the theory of not joining the insect man, but I seem to be concerned about only one issue.

"You mean the undead are very scattered now? How is that possible? Don't they know we're going to attack them?"

"It should be known, but if the insects don't care, they will be difficult to deal with, so we should break through their bases one by one."

"Good idea, and then wipe them out as much as possible before their main force assembles."

"Well, I've handed over the things to you. I think you should know how to deal with them. You can take a look first." He seemed to have accomplished his purpose, so he left the map and closed the door and left. Yes, this place is not very far from his room, so there is no need for teleportation...

At this moment, I couldn't wait to open the map. I knew that everything magic always had its special features, and this was no exception. For example, when I touched that position, they were displayed intuitively like puppet models. In this regard, I finally realized what Caregus had been doing during this period, and perhaps he was hoping that someone could help them destroy those creatures to create.

Maybe, we are here anyway. I thought about this, so I observed the map in detail and checked the location marked as the enemy's position. What surprised me was that it could roughly estimate the enemy's composition, deployment and military equipment. I was not excited to see this. Yes, this was enough to allow me to clearly understand the enemy's strength and how to fight them.

So soon I designed a very simple idea, which was to crush them all the way to Melganier's base, and it didn't seem that there was any need for strategic deployment.

I thought so, and at this time, I also thought about what they could win. There seemed to be only one thing, that is, to lure me out of the sadness of frost. Thinking of this, I was curious and immediately went to find its location, remembering that it should be in a corner of the enemy's main base.

‘That’s right, it should be near the main base of Melganier.’ I quickly caught the dead end on this magical map.

So I clicked on that position as before, but this time, unlike other places, nothing was shown here. When I tried to click, I realized that a new force was preventing me from checking there. At first I thought it was the power of the blue dragon that restricted me from observing this place, but when I clicked on their blue dragon nest, I could still show the structure there, so it was absolutely unreasonable for him to hide that place.

Maybe, it's still early, I think the best way is to take a good day off and discuss the tactical arrangements with you...

The next day, the noisy sound of the construction pier awakened me, and such a sound meant that I was already late, so I immediately put on my clothes and rushed into the conference hall with the map.

Everyone is here at this moment, and in addition to my usual friends and some General Lordaeron, there are also dwarves such as Muladin. Yes, he seems to have a full meal and does not intend to go home, but helps us eliminate the undead creatures that threaten the entire Great 6. However, as my former master, it seems that he is most qualified to blame my lateness.

"You're late, Alsace." The dwarf blamed me seriously, and he didn't say anything to thank me for working hard last night to save them.

"I'm sorry, why don't you think about smashing the door like that before."

I refuted the dwarf to adjust the atmosphere, but he had a better way than me in this regard.

"Hmph, if you still think you are a kid, I will still slap you in public."

"Then thank you for your kindness." Seeing that almost everyone burst into laughter, I felt it was time to stop. "Okay, let's get back to the topic, Master Crasus gave me this..." I opened the map while talking and discussed the route of the march together, which was not considered a discussion. The map intuitively told everyone the distribution of enemies, and there seemed to be nothing to add to the crushing momentum, and the meeting ended.

Because we marked their general number on the map provided by Blue Dragon in advance, we knew that the number of enemies in the nearest places here was not very large and very scattered. So I also left a considerable number of Lordaeron troops to build this place under the pretext of guarding the ships. Yes, I think that after the stronghold here is resting and recuperating, more places should be built, such as the position that is about to attack.

I thought so, and I led most of the people to the destination.

After a whole day of travel, I finally arrived at the enemy base marked by the map. Looking around, there were still some human towns remaining, but now they have been occupied by the undead natural disasters and built into a simple earth castle. I quickly realized that this was not to defend us, but to those insects who were good at digging holes as Crassus said. Because such a simple thing could not stop ground creatures like us...

On the other hand, the defenders here also realized the threat when they appeared, so they did not know that the timid enemy would naturally send their own suicide squads, that is, the infected local humans charged forward.

Looking at the zombie creatures that still leave a trace of humanity, I believe that even those who have never come into contact with the undead creatures should be able to tell that they were once the same creatures as themselves. They had to sigh for this.

For my previous troops, because they had already had combat experience, their hideous and distorted faces were nothing to us, but for most of the Uther's troops, it was another manifestation. They showed no fear, and some even showed timidity... This is the biggest taboo in the matchup. For this, I have to be glad that I was facing only a small wave of enemies, because it was definitely a good trial for them.

"Charge!" I shouted and naturally rushed to the front with the previous troops. At this moment, the enemy had already hit the ice and fire spells of our mages. It was just that there was no sense of fear that they could persist and not retreat. But what could this happen? After all, they were just villagers before, but they were really not very good at fighting. In this regard, the rangers who should have output from a distance might realize that the enemy was even worthy of letting them use bows and arrows, so they rushed up to fight with them in close combat. Only after seeing the necromancer would they shoot their deadly bows and arrows.

Perhaps because of the fact that the enemy's strength was a bit fierce outside, most of the new soldiers had regained the courage they should have. Yes, the only spell that the enemy threatened us was easily interfered with or even resolved by Crassus, Ronin and others. There was no threat at all, and it was even easier than to wipe out the robbers.

Perhaps these soldiers who were still hesitating, saw that my previous troops easily won, quickly joined them and plucked up the courage to rush up, and crushed the enemy like the soldiers at the beginning, and then collapsed the enemy's castle.

And when I saw this behind me, I felt proud, as if everything was as relaxed as I expected.

But at this moment, something unexpected happened to me. Some creatures that surprised me appeared in the enemy. The griffin dwarf who first outputted comfortably in the air was suddenly pulled by a net. I seemed to think of something about this, and on the ground I saw their figures, that is, the huge creatures that suddenly surged out of the ground... The crypt demon.

"Damn it, I should have thought of it. The mage hit a single body to attack those creatures." I cursed angrily, and I personally rode the war horse and rushed up. Yes, their size was even larger than a knight, and their huge body did not affect their physical flexibility. Although we worked together, we could easily suppress these not many guys.

But the most troublesome thing is that they can still get into the ground and appear from another place after a period of time. When they appear, they will always overturn several knights and infantry.

"Be careful of your underground." I reminded everyone, but this order is nonsense. Everyone knows what to pay attention to, but who can know when they are appearing. I watched everything helplessly, and it was precisely because of their appearance that the battle situation gradually became passive.

Although the other undead troops were wiped out, the crypt demons rarely died. What made me feel even more helpless is that many of them are good at similar undead spells, and many fallen people have joined the ranks of enemies.

Perhaps the Uther soldiers realized the terribleness of the enemy at this time, but I don’t want to teach these soldiers in this way. But what can we do? We can only activate and kill sporadic enemies when they appear, and pay tens of times of sacrifice and the price of being sacrificed and being turned into undead after being sacrificed.

It lasted for two or three rounds, and just when I thought this war would make a huge sacrifice, Crasus walked in and said a few words to the earth, and then the ground shook strongly. Unlike ordinary earthquakes, we could hardly feel the shock, and the underground demons had no sign of escape, and even if they tried to turn into the underground again, they would be futile.

"Kill them!" I did not thank the Red Dragon Mage in advance for this, but released my anger to them like everyone else. Yes, I sacrificed these compatriots and turned them into enemies after death. I don't think anyone doesn't want to kill these despicable guys.

In anger, we wiped out the enemy as much as possible. This battle ended with it.
