Chapter 183 Miss Valeera wants me to confess first?
The fertility rate of centaurs is not low. They have thrived in the desolate land for many years. They have already formed a huge ethnic group. Logically speaking, they will not be completely destroyed because of the failure of a mere battle.
However, the battle in the Stone Belt wiped out most of the Centaur elite. Even if there were no other accidents later, the Centaur would not be able to recover for at least several decades.
The centaurs who fled in panic all tucked their tails between their legs, the arrogant overlord of the Desolate Land fell from the altar, and the defense in front of Marathon's gate was as relaxed as ever.
After defeating their old enemy the centaur, the tauren finally vented the anger they had been holding back for countless years.
As the barrage said, the vitality of the Desolate Land has long been sucked dry by the Earth Princess Theradras.
Even without the accelerated destruction of the centaurs, the last green space of Karnum Grassland would not last long, and it was inevitable for the tauren to migrate as a family.
After leading the tribe back to the Karnum Grassland, under the introduction of Sarlayan and Valeela, the tired Kane and Hamuul officially met with the nature guardians headed by Lunala.
As soon as the battle ended, Lunara used her ability to directly connect with the Emerald Dream to inform the druids in the dream about the battle situation in Desolation, and asked them to pass the news to Malfuri in Mount Hyjal.
profound.
The night elves' expeditionary vanguard had already set off from Mount Hyjal, and when the battle in Desolace ended, they had just entered Ashenvale.
The news from the front came at just the right time, and the expedition team adjusted their marching route in time and headed towards Astrana, the important town in Ashenvale.
The advance team led by Sentinel General Shandris Feathermoon began a rapid march. Lunala speculated that it would take at least a week for them to cross the Stonetalon Mountains and enter the Desolation Land.
On the other hand, the sentry troops stationed in Elrethalas received orders to start heading north. They should rush into the Desolate Land before Shandis leads the army.
"Mr. Deep Shadow, thank you for your help. The tauren will fulfill the agreement we made before."
Returning to Karnum Grassland and setting up the tent again, Kane and Hamuul solemnly thanked Sarlayan.
Before starting to formulate the plan, Sharlayan expressed his intention to the tauren and reached a verbal agreement with the unanimous consent of both parties.
The Ahn'Qiraj expeditionary force, headed by the high elves and night elves, will provide help to the tauren, completely eliminate the threat of the centaurs, and escort the non-combatants of the tauren all the way to the Mulgore grasslands.
In return, the Tauren will send their elite troops to join the expeditionary force and participate in the upcoming second Battle of Quicksand.
In fact, Kane did not take this agreement seriously at first. He only agreed to this verbal deal out of trust in Hamuul.
Now that Sarlayan's side has completed its due obligations, Kane happily patted his chest and promised to fulfill his promise.
When the sentinels of Feralas arrive in the Desolate Land, they will first cooperate with the tauren to wipe out the remaining centaurs.
Afterwards, Shandris will send some sentries to escort the tauren migration group, accompanied by Magatha, who is still having trouble, and lead the tribe to the Mogore grassland to build a new home.
Kane and Hamuul led the elite tauren troops to directly follow the coalition advance team and rushed to Cenarion Fortress to make final preparations for the Battle of Quicksand.
Sarlayan, who was responsible for building bridges, has completed his mission.
Tomorrow he will separate from the large army, enter Marathon with Lunala and others, and liberate Zaltar's soul that is bound by Theradras.
After a day of fierce fighting, even the iron man Sarlayan felt tired, let alone the tauren after the excitement. The snoring on the Karnum grassland at night was loud.
In the early morning of the next day, Sarlayan, who had amazing resilience, got up early and happened to see the sunrise in the Desolate Land.
Before Valeera woke up, Sharlayan sorted out the results of yesterday's battle.
After leapfrogging and killing Shaka Khan, coupled with the experience gained on the front line of the battlefield, Sarlayan's warrior level jumped from over half of level 35 to level 37.
This is the first time that Sarlayan has gained experience on a frontal battlefield, and the unusually rich rewards have given him more expectations for the upcoming Battle of Quicksand.
The ranger level has never been changed and is still level 5. The druid level is 16 and has not been upgraded recently.
Although in theory anyone can take the route of dominating all professions, human energy is limited after all, and Sarlayan does not plan to dabble too much in other professions before the warrior reaches full level.
A warrior as the main job and a Druid as a deputy job are completely enough.
"Ha~"
When Sarlayan sorted out her thoughts, Valeera yawned and walked out of her tent, stretching her graceful body in a daze.
The soft sunlight in the early morning shone on Valeera's body, as if her surface was coated with a layer of gold powder.
"Um?"
The cool breeze in the early morning on the grassland made Valeera wake up quickly. Only then did she notice Sarlayan, who was sitting on the grass and looking back at her.
"You killed a centaur chief yesterday with the long-range support of a large number of centaurs. You were very tired on the battlefield, weren't you? Why did you get up so early?"
Sarlayan pulled his thoughts out of his distracted state and refocused his eyes.
"Don't you know my recovery ability? If I'm a little tired, I'll be fine if I rest for a night."
"Too."
Valeera curled her lips and walked to sit down next to Sarlayan.
"Mortals like me can't compare with people with dragon blood. My hands and feet are still a little sore now."
Valeera is a thief after all, and head-on combat is not her strong point.
During yesterday's battle in the rock belt, she had been operating with the ambush team, specifically attacking and killing the squishy spellcasters in the enemy's back row.
Although she is basically invisible on the battlefield, Valeela did a lot of work behind the scenes to reduce the interference from the soldiers when Sarlayan fought against Shaka Khan.
Sarlayan shook his head and laughed, placing his glowing green left hand on her shoulder.
"Don't move, I'll help you treat it."
Druid's healing spells are very gentle. Although the short-term healing effect is not as overbearing as the Holy Light spell, it does not cause any side effects on the body and is very suitable for relieving muscle soreness after strenuous exercise.
The warm natural energy swept through every inch of Valeela's muscles. While she felt deeply comfortable, Valeela also felt a little shy.
'Why do you feel like this guy is taking advantage of you?'
In fact, Sarlayan did not have this idea at first, but with the help of the barrage of LSPs, he also realized through the blush on Valeela's face that his behavior seemed inappropriate.
"Ahem~ don't think too much."
Sarlayan said seriously with a straight face: "The doctor is kind-hearted, I am just helping you recover, I have no other ideas."
Valeela rolled her eyes coquettishly: "You have no other ideas? Then why did you mention such a sentence specifically? It will make me feel that your intentions are not pure."
"Ah this..."
[Hahahahaha! Straight man, you are so talkative, how can you possibly outplay Valeela? 】
[This tongue-in-cheek thing you’re talking about...is it serious?]
Under the merciless ridicule of the barrage and the half-smiling expression of Valeera, Sarlayan's face was a little confused.
"Ahem~ That's almost it. Your body has recovered, right? We will set off for Marathon this afternoon."
"Hmph~"
Watching Sarlayan leave in embarrassment, Valeela raised a proud smile on her lips.
"You tough-talking guy, I don't believe you are really hard-hearted. Sooner or later, you will have to speak first."
…
The "intrigue" between Sharlayan and Valeela was kept secret from anyone.
That afternoon, Sarlayan and his party bid farewell to the tauren for the time being.
Since Lunara and other dryads and forest guardians could not fly, Sarlayan deliberately changed into a traveling form and carried Valeera to follow them on the ground.
Travel form is a special transformation form used by druids to travel. Usually, animals with strong running ability and excellent endurance are chosen as the model.
Since it was rarely used, Sarlayan did not pay much attention to the traveling form and followed the trend and turned into a large white deer. It is said that this is the form that the druids transformed based on the appearance of the demigod Malorne.
Malorne the White Deer, the father of the forest demigod Cenarius, has been known as the strongest wilderness demigod since the birth of civilization in Azeroth.
In the War of the Ancients, Malorne had a head-on battle with Archimonde, the second-in-command of the Burning Legion.
Although Malor was ultimately defeated and killed in order to protect his son Cenarius, the fact that he could fight Archimonde for a long time is enough to illustrate his great strength.
Archimonde the Defiler and Kil'jaeden the Deceiver were the right-hand men of the Dark Titan Sargeras. They followed him in battles in the north and south, destroying countless worlds in the universe. Few people can fight with them inextricably.
Except for Valeela who was sitting on Sarlayan's back, the group of people all had four legs and soon arrived at the entrance to Marathon - the Valley of Spears.
"This is really...the tree fell and the hozen dispersed."
Looking at the empty scene in front of the Valley of Spears, Sarlayan used a common saying from another world that Danmaku taught him.
"Hozen?"
Lunala turned back curiously: "Do you know the Hozen? That is a unique creature found only in Pandaria. I have never seen any Hozen since the Great Sundering."
"Uh~"
The corner of Sarlayan's mouth twitched: "It's not important. Since there are no centaurs blocking the road for the time being, let's seize the time and move on."
