The reconstruction work of Stormwind City has been carried out for more than three years, and two-thirds of it has been completed. On the ruins of the original city, the craftsmen of the Brotherhood of Stonemasons with superb craftsmanship rebuilt a pure white city, and at the request of the king
Next, a second guard wall was built outside the original city.
This has also greatly increased the construction period and difficulty. However, under the leadership of the excellent architect Mr. Alex and the chief foreman Mr. Van Cleef, the plan to rebuild Stormwind City is being completed bit by bit.
At this time, a group of fully armed paladins and cavalry rode on war horses and rushed out of Stormwind City along the wide avenue. This made the workers who were building the city guard wall a little confused.
"These knights are so mighty!"
The architect Alex, who was wearing a white shirt and black trousers, wearing glasses and holding a blueprint in his hand, looked curiously at the knights leaving the city. He said to the foreman who was measuring the blueprints next to him:
"Van Cleef, what do you think they did?"
"How do I know? I'm not one of those noble lords."
Van Cleef, the foreman of the Brotherhood of Stonemasons, smiled. He rolled up the completed drawings and turned to look at the large city wall that was taking shape. A trace of satisfaction and joy flashed in his eyes. Rebuilding Stormwind City was a challenge for any craftsman.
It was an unforgettable experience for everyone, but in Van Cleef's eyes, there was a trace of anxiety that could not be concealed.
The payment to workers and craftsmen has been delayed for a month. Although he still has confidence in the country ruled by the Wrynn family, Van Cleef, who was once a veteran and scout, knows that those nobles will be really stingy.
How crazy is it.
"I hope I'm just imagining things."
Van Cleef shook his head, shook his worries out of his mind, and began to conceive of the sculptures within the guard wall. It is said that King Varian wants to build several sculptures to commemorate the heroes who died in the war, so it must be done.
The exquisiteness and grandeur of it make people feel solemn, so you have to think about it carefully.
And just when Van Cleef was thinking about how to carve the sculpture, a burst of exclamation sounded from the scaffolding outside the tall city wall. The foreman hurriedly raised his head and followed the eyes of the exclaimed workers.
In the bright sky of the forest, a large group of rare ravens took off from the direction of the twilight forest and slid towards the southern sky.
Those ravens are very big. There are no such huge ravens in the local area. Among the people, superstitious people always regard crows flying in the sky as an ominous sign. But now there are more than 20 crows.
When they saw the queue, it was like poking a hornet's nest. The workers even stopped working and gathered together to whisper.
"Everyone go back to work!"
Van Cleef hurried out of the work shed and shouted to the ugly-looking workers:
"It's just a group of big crows. There is no need to be nervous. Listen to me and work hard. Brothers, for the money we can earn and the glory of the Masons Brotherhood... go to work quickly. I beg you.
.”
The great foreman's reputation in the Masons' Brotherhood was very high. Seeing Van Cleef's anxious look, the workers stopped discussing the ominous situation and returned to their jobs.
Van Cleef, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the sweat from his forehead. The next moment, he suddenly turned his head and looked at the city gate avenue behind him. He felt that there seemed to be a figure looking at him there.
But there is nothing there!
Van Cleef shook his head after watching it several times. As a veteran scout and assassin who had participated in the Battle of the Burning Plains, he knew very well that even the best assassin in the human kingdom could no longer hide himself completely in broad daylight.
, not to mention those bulky orc assassins.
"It seems that I have been too tired recently. After work, I must go to the Pride of the Lion to have a few drinks."
The big foreman rubbed his forehead and returned to the work shed, but what he didn't know was that not far from where he was standing just now, Maiev Shadowsong was standing there with a dozen watchers spread out, and
The warden also looked at Van Cleef, who was back to work, with a critical look.
"This is a very talented human being... He can actually slightly sense the Watcher in the shadow. Unfortunately, he is not an elf, and he is also a dirty male."
Maiev commented in a low voice, then turned her head. Under the emerald green owl helmet, she looked at the watcher behind her with stern eyes:
"Mylene Bladewing! You were almost discovered by a human. Do you want to become a shame to the Watchers?"
The scolded Watcher lowered his head and did not dare to answer. The lady's severity was famous throughout the Watcher organization, but fortunately, the Watchers sneaked into Stormwind City for more important things, so the next moment, Ma
Wei let Mai Lin go, and she said to the other watchers:
"Our pursuit on the Treasure Coast did not end in vain. The place where the breath of the fallen compatriots last disappeared is around this human city... Go, sisters, spread out and find her!"
Maiev clenched the Thorn Blade Wheel in her hand and said in a deep voice:
"This time, we must bring our sisters back!"
"Shua"
An inaudible sound of breaking through the air sounded on the avenue at the gate of Stormwind City. A dozen watchers spread out and headed towards every corner of the city. These assassins who dedicated everything to the moon god Elune owned
The supreme blessing of darkness, compared with the rough stealth and stealth skills of their human counterparts, even Stormwind City's most powerful master assassin, Mathias Shore, is just a beginner in front of the Watcher.
boy.
Let's put it this way, if Maiev came to Stormwind City this time to save King Varian Wrynn's life, then the young king probably wouldn't survive tonight.
Just as the Watchers began their actions, the druids who had passed through the Emerald Dream's portal and crossed the distant Endless Sea also flew into the sky above the gloomy Swamp of Sorrows.
The crows dispersed, looking for some kind of sign in this damp swamp. Don’t underestimate this swamp. A few years ago, even the Cursed Land was part of this swamp, but after the tribe opened the Dark Portal
, evil energy soaked into the underground of this land, causing the area of the swamp to shrink rapidly, until today, only such a small area remains.
But the druids are still very careful, because this swamp hides secrets that mortals don't know... There is a sealed evil place here, and dragons are guarding it, and there are many of them.
, In fact, if the orcs had been wilder when they invaded and had touched the evil seal, maybe the orc war would not have broken out at all, and those reckless orcs might have been killed by the giant dragons hidden in this swamp.
Easily shredded.
But fate has no if...
"So, where are you?"
Archdruid Malfurion spread his wings and flew in the gray sky. He had stayed too long in the perfect environment of the Emerald Dream and Mount Hyjal. He was very unaccustomed to the air of the Eastern Continent, especially this kind of breathtaking atmosphere.
Disgusted by the humidity, the power of life is twisted into another shape here. It seems to be very prosperous, but in fact it has gone on the wrong path.
"Ga"
A fragile neigh made the Arch Druid suddenly stop flapping his wings. He turned around in the air and rushed towards the location where the neigh came from. If he heard correctly, it was a Druid being killed.
The scream of defeat.
But this time the people who followed him were all extremely powerful warriors among the druids. They had all experienced the ancient war ten thousand years ago. In this place, who could defeat a powerful druid so easily?
What about Rui?
Could it be...the demigod hiding here?
Malfurion quickly crossed the tangled vines in the swamp. When the druid approached, these natural plants would actively make way for him. It was an absolutely magical scene, but for the druid, this was
It's just an insignificant manifestation of the power of nature.
Soon, the archdruid felt the lingering shadows at the foot of the mountain ahead. It was a naturally formed cave, but it was invisible and obscured by the power of shadow.
Malfurion stood at the entrance of the cave and gave a silent call. Soon, several druids landed beside him.
"Be careful, brothers, maybe that demigod is right in front of you, and it looks like its power is different from the wild demigods we have seen."
The archdruid reminded with a solemn expression:
"Not even Goldrinn, the most violent wolf god, has such a dark side."
"Buzz"
He stretched out his hand, and the light green power of nature wrapped around his fingers, tearing open the curtain of darkness in front of him. The druids stepped into the cave and soon smelled the smell of blood. This made Malfury
Ao's expression changed, and he quickened his pace. After bypassing a mountain wall, he saw the huge creature lying in difficulty deep in the cave.
It looked like a crow, but its body was more than 7 meters long. Its whole body was covered with dark blue dim feathers, and there were exquisite pendants hanging between its neck. The most dazzling thing was the wide and beautiful tail feathers, which were simply
Like a piece of art.
And next to the huge, obviously severely injured crow, their missing partner, the best scout, and one of the best raptor druids, Hisari. The black crow was squatting next to the huge crow, she
The green life force lingered in his hands, and he was treating the crow's injuries.
When the druids broke into the crypt, the calm crow suddenly raised its head, a hint of vigilance flashed in its dangerous eyes, and the power of the roaring wind imprisoned the druids in an instant.
He stood on the spot, and the sharp wind blade accompanied by black feathers slashed towards the druids.
"Intruder! Die!"
"No! Mighty Ansu, they are not enemies!"
The moment the Winged Wind Blade appeared, the druid girl with war tattoos on her face screamed quickly. This sound caused the strong wind caused by Ansu to quickly disappear, and the big druid was already ready.
Attacking, the raptor druid Black Crow quickly stood up and said to his companions:
"Don't be nervous, brothers, Anzu is very weak now. It helped humans in the previous war between humans and the undead, but the price is that it is now on the verge of death."
Seeing that his companions were not harmed, a trace of relief flashed in Malfurion's eyes, but the next moment, he set his sights on the really weak crow demigod.
With a deep understanding of power, he could easily see that the crow in front of him was a genuine demigod, but it was already very old, so its power had declined severely.
Ansu's black eyes stared at Malfurion warily. The latter stretched out his hands to show that he had no ill intentions. He stepped forward and squatted on the ground. As his hands danced, a ball of spells lingered with the power of life.
It landed on Anzu's body, causing the vigilant crow god to let out a comfortable groan.
"Quack!"
The hideous wounds on Ansu's body recovered bit by bit under the joint treatment of the druids. After more than ten minutes, it stood up with difficulty. It looked at the druid in front of it with a scrutinizing gaze.
Aye, its hoarse voice also rings in the hearts of the druids.
"A group of elves who use strange transformation techniques to fight with the power of life... I have never seen such existence in Draenor. Who are you? Why are you coming to me? Elves!"
"We are here to help you."
Malfurion said, causing Anzu to laugh. The demigod made no secret of its vigilance and screamed:
"Quack! I ended up in this situation. Even my own family members were killed, I lost my home, and I fled to another world in embarrassment. It's because two years ago, an elf from Azeroth told me
I...he is here to help me! Gua!"
"I won't be stupid enough to be fooled twice! For the sake of you treating my injuries, get out!"
Ansu flapped his wings, and the howling wind was mixed with black feathers, driving the druids out of their cave without any explanation. However, at the moment when the power of shadow re-closed, a delicate crow statue was blown away by the wind.
It fell into the hands of the raptor druid girl who was the first to contact Ansu and expressed her selfless kindness.
"I don't owe you any more favors! Kind-hearted little girl, there is my power in the sculpture. Draw on it. You should have a pair of more powerful wings because you are kind."
"As for you! The elves who came with a certain purpose...don't bother me anymore."
"Let me enter the kingdom of death quietly and alone."
