Chapter 322 The Shadow of the Leaf

The five members of the Bishops' Council may also have conflicts with each other because of their different positions.

For example, the two archbishops, Nellie, who acts steadily, and Hataru, who always has wild ideas, often quarreled because of their different personalities.

This kind of conflict was just out of official business, and Nellie never thought of killing Hataru who disagreed with her.

But because the two often had daily verbal conflicts, when the news of Hataru's assassination was released, many draenei regarded Nellie as their primary suspect.

This is exactly what Socrethar wants to achieve.

The Council of Bishops could not unify their opinions due to mutual suspicion, and Nellie led the rangers out to fight in anger, fighting on the front line against the orc tribe.

When Scar Ranger Hogan led the way, he briefly explained Nellie's actions after she parted ways with the other archbishops.

The speed at which the orcs captured the city far exceeded the draenei's expectations.

When Nellie received news that Shattrath City and Auchindoun were under siege one after another, and tried to lead the rangers outside to rush to support, she was too late every time, and could only watch the city being bombarded by a large number of Hellfires.

was breached.

When the Frostwolf clan attacked Telmo, Nellie, who was prepared in advance, finally caught up, but she was unfortunately targeted by Tarongor who was hiding behind the scenes to monitor Durotan.

Taron Gor is one of Gul'dan's most valued disciples and a very important figure in the Shadow Council. Like his mentor Gul'dan, he is an extreme egoist.

After Orgrim came to power, he slaughtered all the members of the Shadow Council except Gul'dan without hesitation, including Tarongor.

After Gul'dan woke up from a coma, he collected the souls of these Shadow Council members and used the corpses of human knights to resurrect them, turning them into early death knights.

Taron Gor is Talon Bloodfiend who is currently assisting Ner'zhul in opening the interstellar portal.

Tarongor, like Gul'dan, dehumanized his entire clan and took their life force into his own hands.

After the Horde conquered Auchindoun, Taron'gor absorbed all the draenei souls lingering in this sacred tomb, greatly increasing his strength.

Although Nellie tried her best to kill Tarongor, she was unable to do so in the end and was hit by Tarongor's chaos arrow.

She endured the pain and fled the battlefield. After returning to the camp, she fell into a coma, wandering on the edge of life and death.

Just as Maladar predicted, the refugee camp established by the rangers is near Telmo.

Although Nellie failed to save Telmo's fate, she took the Atama Crystal Leafy Shadow before Telmo fell, preventing it from falling into the hands of the tribe.

Each of the seven Atama crystals has a special function. The main ability of Leaf Shadow is to create a large-scale illusion, which can hide the entire city from foreign enemies.

If it weren't for Durotan, who led the way and repaid kindness with revenge, the Horde army would not have been able to find the specific location of Telmo.

With the help of scholars (mages) among the refugees, Hogan and others relied on the ability of the Shadow of Fanye to hide the refugee camp so that no outsider could find them.

Under the leadership of the anxious Hogan, Sharlayan, Valeera and Stellagosa could easily keep up with his pace, but Turani, who was in poor health, began to pant not long after walking.

Sharlayan glanced at Stellagosa, and she immediately slowed down knowingly, and unexpectedly picked up Princess Turani, who couldn't keep up with the rhythm.

"ah!"

Turani was startled by Stellagosa's movements and subconsciously wanted to struggle.

"Don't move. Don't blame me if you accidentally fall."

"Well..."

Turani also knew that if she continued to act strong, she would only be held back, so she reluctantly acquiesced to Stellagosa's princess embrace.

When they arrived at a forest southwest of the ruins of Telmo, Hogan and other rangers who had been leading the way suddenly disappeared without a trace.

Sarlayan, who followed closely behind, was surprised but did not stop and continued to move forward.

After passing through a water curtain-like barrier, the scenery in front of everyone has changed greatly.

Looking from the outside, you can only see a lush forest.

In fact, there is something else going on in this area. A large number of Draenei-style tents are scattered in the forest. Rangers armed with bows and arrows are energetic guards at the edge of the barrier, scanning Sarlayan and other outsiders with sharp eyes.

Hogan, who entered first, had already informed his companions that the rangers did not raise their bows and arrows to aim at them.

Several other rangers handed over the deer they had captured earlier to their companions by the fire, and Hogan strode straight towards the largest tent in the center of the camp.

Compared to Oakington, this refugee camp is much smaller.

Perhaps it's because those who go hunting are professional rangers, and their hunting efficiency is higher than that of Auchenai. The refugees in the camp seem to be in good condition, not as sallow and skinny as the refugees from Auchindoun.

Like Hogan and others, most of the refugees in the camp wear animal skins due to inadequate conditions.

When Sarlayan and others arrived, these refugees were busy performing their duties.

Sarlayan, Turani and the others did not have time to pay attention to the status of the refugees. At Hogan's urging, they went directly into the big tent to check on Archbishop Nellie's situation.

"The smell is..."

As soon as they entered the tent, Sarlayan and the others frowned. The tent was filled with a faint stench of evil energy, which came from the female Draenei lying on the floor.

Several Draenei priests half-knelt in front of Nellie's hospital bed and released holy light spells. Due to lack of strength, they were unable to get rid of the powerful evil energy entangled in Nellie's body, and could only barely keep her injuries from worsening.

"I'm sorry."

Hogan walked to the bed and lifted Nellie's quilt, and an even stronger stench of evil energy hit his face.

Nellie's left abdomen was filled with flesh and blood, and the dark green evil energy was still attached to her wound, and did not continue to expand under the suppression of the holy light.

Turani jumped out of Stellagosa's hand and squatted beside the bed with a serious face to check Nellie's injury.

"It's not good."

Turani frowned and said: "Although the Holy Light has suppressed the further deterioration of the injury, this is only treating the symptoms and not the root cause."

"If the evil energy is not removed for a day, Archbishop Nellie will not be able to wake up for a day."

"Her body will one day be unable to survive just by relying on nutrient infusion spells."

"If the time is delayed for too long, even if you wake up in the future, you will suffer irreversible damage."

Hogan has heard similar conclusions more than once, but this is obviously not what he wants to hear.

"Tulani, are you and Archbishop Maladar sure of curing her?"

Turani noticed the hope in Hogan's eyes, hesitated for a while, and finally decided to tell the truth.

"Unfortunately, what Auchenai priests are best at is not holy light and healing, but the opposite power of shadow."

"If Archbishop Akama is still there, he might be able to recruit professional combat priests from under his command, but now..."

The light of hope in Hogan's eyes gradually faded, and the visible disappointment made Turani very intolerable. But the truth was so cruel, and she could not deceive Hogan with good words without conscience.

"that……"

Sarlayan suddenly raised his hand to break the silence: "Can I come and take a look?"

"you?"

Turani still remembered Sarlayan's inappropriate joke before, and snorted in displeasure.

"Do you know how to heal with holy light? Don't show off. Archbishop Nellie's situation is very dangerous and there is no room for mistakes."

Sarlayan spread his hands indifferently: "My healing spells are not the same system as the Holy Light. Have you ever heard of the power of nature?"

There are no druids among the draenei tribe, and there is no custom of utilizing the power of nature.

But they have traveled to many planets in the universe, met many strange ethnic groups, and have also come into contact with races that can use the power of nature to heal.

Turani was stunned for a moment, and then looked at Sarlayan with a careful look.

"Are you sure?"

Sarlayan shook his head: "I haven't checked it myself, how can I jump to conclusions now?"

"Get out of your way first."

Sarlayan squeezed Turani away and squatted in front of Nellie's bed. His right hand, glowing with soft emerald green light, touched her wound.

Although the power of nature and evil energy both appear green, the two energies give people completely different feelings.

Evil energy represents chaos, and will make races that value order instinctively loathe it.

The power of nature in Sarlayan's hands made people feel the vitality. Hogan, who was already despairing, rekindled the fire of hope in his heart. He stared at Sarlayan nervously, afraid of hearing from him.

I heard words like "I'm sorry" and "I tried my best".

"Um……"

Sarlayan frowned slightly and said, "The evil power in Archbishop Nellie's body is indeed very powerful, but it is not invulnerable."

"Stella, I need your help. Use arcane power that is opposite to the nature of evil energy to suppress its activity, and I will expel it from the body."
