After all, the plan to raid the Molten Core was carried out in secret. There was no way Sharlayan would stand at the door of the fire elemental's lair and deliver a long speech.
After briefly boosting morale, Sarlayan led by example and was the first to walk into the cave and officially arrived at the Molten Core.
When we arrived at the door of the Molten Core, the surrounding temperature was already not low, but it was not unbearable for the human body.
After crossing the border of the Black Iron Kingdom, an even more scorching heat wave spurted out from inside the cave. All the soldiers involved in the operation opened the lid and drank the fire resistance potion under the order of the officer.
The potion took effect quickly, and the soldiers felt that their originally high body surface temperatures had dropped significantly in just one minute.
Even if the body surface temperature can be made more comfortable, the environment in the molten core deep into the earth's core is still very harsh.
The rocks you walked on were scorched black by the lava, and you could feel the scorching heat when you stepped on them.
When walking through the underground cave, you can even see the churning magma in the lava river next to you up close.
Because Dagran Thaurissan strictly blocked all news about this operation, when the coalition forces invaded the Molten Core, the wandering fire element creations did not react for a while.
"Mage team, attack!"
Under Sarlayan's command, the mages who were already ready to cast spells raised their staffs high, and a series of pure arcane spells swept towards the small group of fire elements in front.
Due to calculated calculations but not care, the fire elemental who suddenly encountered the invasion of foreign enemies was unprepared and was hit squarely by the attacks of the masters.
According to common sense, water and ice spells are very effective in extinguishing fires.
However, due to environmental restrictions, the atmosphere of the Molten Core is filled with fire elements, making it almost impossible to extract water elements from the surrounding environment.
Stellagosa has tried it herself. Even with her high-level legendary strength, she cannot instantly summon the water element in the Molten Core. It takes a long time to accumulate power, let alone those mages who are generally only at the elite level.
.
Using fire spells to attack the fire element will definitely have no effect. In desperation, mages can only choose the most neutral arcane spells to hurt the enemy.
The first round of spell washing easily eliminated the 20 or so fire elementals that first discovered the intruders, but the resulting movement also awakened the confused fire elementals around them.
"Enemy attack! There are intruders!"
After receiving the reminder from their companions, fire elements of different sizes swarmed out of the molten cave directly opposite the entrance to the Molten Core, like wasps that had their honeycomb stabbed.
There are many kinds of fire element creations in the Molten Core. In addition to the most primitive and classic element aggregation, there are also various enemies such as fire monsters, lava dogs, lava giants, and lava rushers that attack the coalition forces.
Soldiers are expensive and fast, and it is obviously not a wise move to engage in a war of attrition with the enemy in the Molten Core, the home of the fire element.
Fortunately, some time ago, the scouts of the Dark Iron Dwarves took great risks to sneak into the Molten Core and simply drew a topographic map of the Molten Core.
Of course, the Molten Core in the real world cannot be like in the game, where all the fire element lords are stupidly guarding a certain fixed place.
Granaros has indeed demarcated their own defense zones for the fire element lords, but this does not mean that they will always squat in the same place. Wandering around within their own defense zone is the normal behavior of the fire element lords.
There are two fire elemental lords closest to the entrance in the defense area, both from the fire demon clan, namely Lucifron and Jihenas.
According to the map information provided by the Black Iron Scout, Lucifron guards the cave leading to the Lava Dog Lord Magamanda, which is a dead end.
When Sharlayan ventures out to explore the maze, he likes to take a dead end first and then go back and explore other forked paths.
Before officially starting the action, Sarlayan had planned in advance the order in which he would attack each fire element lord.
The first target will undoubtedly be Lucifron. Afterwards, the coalition forces will go deep into the lava cave and kill the giant lava dog Magamanda, and then turn around to deal with Kehena, who may have heard the news and rushed over.
S.
With the outline of the plan as a guide, the coalition forces did not lose their way in the Molten Core, which extended in all directions. Under Sarlayan's order, they unified towards Lucifron's defense area to break out.
Sarlayan took the lead and launched a heroic leap into the fire elemental group. He spun on the spot and wielded Valajar's two swords. He slashed many enemies with a fierce whirlwind strike and cleared a vacuum zone in a small area.
"Roar!"
The buff effect of Dragon's Roar can cover the entire battle group, and the soldiers blessed by the buff can feel that their attack power has been increased.
"Speed up the breakout! Don't be obsessed with fighting!"
While Sarlayan was slashing the fire elements blocking the road along the way, he took the time to look back and observe another cave entrance guarded by Gihenas.
Perhaps because of the difference in terrain, the defense area of Jihenas did not hear the fighting at the entrance, and no one has been sent out to check at this time.
However, the news that an invader has invaded the Molten Core for the first time will spread throughout the underground space sooner or later.
Sharlayan could not expect the enemy to react slowly, so he could only speed up his own attack as much as possible to avoid being beaten by Gyhenas and his men from behind when attacking Lucifron and Magamanda.
According to the original plan, Valeela should have sneaked into the defense area of Kehenas at this time to monitor his movements.
Once there is any trouble in Gichnas, Valeela will immediately use the soul link channel to inform the commander of the raid, Sarlayan, of the news.
Due to unexpected circumstances, Valeera was unable to come from Quel'Thalas, so this task could only be left to the scouts of the Dark Iron dwarves instead.
There is a saying, there is no instant message transmission with soul link, even if a large number of scout relays are deployed along the way, there will inevitably be a certain delay when the message reaches the ears of Sarlayan and others who are fighting in another molten cave.
.
On a rapidly changing battlefield, even a small time deviation may lead to serious consequences.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Sarlayan is a little uneasy about whether the Black Iron Scouts can perfectly replace Valeera's warning function, but there is no other way to think of now, he can only bite the bullet as soon as possible
Get rid of Lucifron and Magamanda, and extinguish the balrog runes guarded by these two fire elemental lords.
In order to ensure that the scouts relaying messages from behind could be responded to at any time, Sharlayan entrusted the Dark Iron Queen Moira to stay behind while he personally led the army as the vanguard.
As soon as he entered a small cave that was necessary to lead to the Lucifron Defense Zone, a dozen fist-sized fireballs hit Sarlayan, who was at the front to clear the way.
"What the hell! What the hell?"
Although he didn't understand where the attack came from, Sarlayan still reflexively raised his sword and lowered it. With his dancing hands, he waved Valagar's two swords to split the fireballs one by one.
The power of each fireball is not very strong, at most it can barely reach the elite level.
However, these unpredictable sneak attacks still pose a high threat to ordinary soldiers. Fortunately, Sarlayan was walking in front, otherwise this wave of fireball combos would inevitably cause certain battle damage.
At the same time that Sarlayan was attacked, the Ranger General following him quickly discovered the location of the enemy.
It turned out that there was a group of flame imps hiding in the shadows at the corner of the cave very cunningly. Sylvanas raised her bow and fired continuously without hesitation, and Lyras on the side also hurriedly followed suit.
By the time Sharlayan dispersed all the incoming fireballs, the kid who was laughing and attacking was already screaming and falling to the ground, with arrows of different colors stuck in their bodies.
Sylvanas doesn't like to be fancy, her arrow tail feathers are the most classic pure white, while Lyras chose the same emerald green as the Windrunner family emblem.
Through these tail feathers of different colors, you can tell at a glance who of the two has killed more enemies.
Sylvanas put down the golden bow of Quel'Thalas, glanced at the few green arrows that hit the imp, and looked back at Lylas, who looked embarrassed, expressionlessly.
"Uh~ It's not that I'm too weak, it's that you, second sister, are too strong."
"Hmph~ Don't think you can get away with being smooth-talking."
Sylvanas was not affected by Lylas's praise and warned him sternly: "The reaction speed is too slow and the shooting speed is too slow!"
"The enemy will not give you that much time to aim. Look at Sarlayan's reaction speed and subconscious movements. This shows that your practice is not strong enough. You must continue to increase the amount after you return, and you must develop muscle memory!"
Lyras's face visibly fell, and he opened his mouth to explain something, but considering Sylvanas's character, he could only swallow the sophistry.
