Because they had business to attend to, the father and son Coven and Anduin Lothar did not chat for too long. After getting to know each other and chatting for a while, Karen was driven back to the team by Anduin Lothar.
Next, the team of hundreds of people hurried on in silence. Even if they took a shortcut, it still took them nearly an hour and a half before they approached the area calculated by Ke Wen.
The atmosphere became solemn and everyone cheered up.
Not long after continuing to move forward, the team finally discovered something.
In a small open space, several wheelbarrows used for transporting goods fell to the side of the road. The salutes on the vehicles were scattered, and a body was pressed under the car body.
"It seems we are a step too late..."
Anduin Lothar looked at the scene in front of him and said in a deep voice, then he lifted his legs and dismounted, walked to the corpse and knelt down to check.
After just one glance, Anduin Lothar frowned and said, "Just like the corpse in the military camp, the skin is liquefied underneath."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand again, dipped it in a pool of blood on the ground, brought it to his nose and smelled it.
"Stink!" Anduin Lothar stood up and said to everyone who dismounted: "So is this caused by 'evil energy'?"
Without waiting for Cowen to respond, Medivh stepped forward first.
He let go again very casually, leaving the staff to Khadgar who hurried forward to help.
Then, Medivh stared at the big tree in front of him that seemed to have been corroded by green sulfuric acid, and walked up with a solemn expression.
Khadgar quickly followed up with the 'chicken leg stick'.
Just when Medivh looked up at the big tree and kept mumbling, 'This is impossible,' Cowen glanced slightly at the tree crown beside the road.
Then he softly called to Anduin Lothar, who was observing the corpse: "Anduin."
"What?" Anduin Lothar turned around and stood up.
"The sounds of birds and insects are too quiet." Ke Wen reminded in a low voice: "So, there is an ambush around here."
Anduin Lothar was stunned.
He didn't understand why the sound of "flying birds and insects" was quieter, which meant there was an ambush. After all, the form of war in this world was still too backward.
But Anduin Lothar trusted Covin. Since Cowen said there was an ambush, he must take it seriously.
Therefore, without hesitation, he immediately shouted an order: "Everyone! Circular shield formation! Be alert for sneak attack!"
The soldiers obeyed the order. Hundreds of soldiers rubbed their armor together, making chaotic sounds, and quickly gathered around Anduin Lothar.
However, the soldiers' actions stimulated the ambushers.
When the shield formation had just been half formed, a huge black shadow suddenly flew out from the bushes beside the road.
clang--
The black shadow collided with a soldier's metal breastplate.
With the sparks splashing, the powerful potential energy of the black shadow immediately knocked out a huge dent in the soldier's plate armor and knocked the soldier away.
The black shadow fell to the ground, and everyone realized that it turned out to be a very huge one-handed hammer.
"Lok'tar ogar!"
"Lok'tar ogar—"
…
The next moment, before everyone could recover, many shouts suddenly sounded from the woods on both sides of the road.
Huge figures suddenly emerged from the woods on both sides, or jumped from the canopy of trees on both sides of the road.
In an instant, the enemy suddenly broke into the ranks of the soldiers.
The sneak attack was too sudden.
Although the soldiers had been warned a long time ago, after seeing the orc's huge physique with their own eyes, they still couldn't help being stunned for a moment.
But at this moment, about twenty soldiers were attacked by the orcs and killed with one blow, or their breastplates were smashed, or their necks were broken.
Anduin Lothar was the first to come to his senses.
He stared at those strong figures over two meters tall with tearful eyes.
Seeing those green-skinned and brown-skinned giants constantly killing soldiers, he immediately shouted angrily: "Cooperate to defend the enemy! Two people are responsible for defense! One person is responsible for attack!"
Anduin Lothar's voice attracted the orcs' attention.
The two orcs knocked away the soldiers who had not had time to enter the shield formation, and then rushed towards the shield formation with roars.
Anduin Lothar stared at the two orcs fiercely. When the other party finally approached, he immediately roared: "Defense!"
Boom! Boom!
Two huge metal hammers suddenly landed on the shield of the shield formation.
Screams of pain rang out, and the two soldiers raised their shields to meet the attacking soldiers, and their arms were suddenly broken.
Anduin Lothar discovered this and instantly estimated the power of the orcs in his mind.
But before he had time to think about it, he immediately shouted again: "Stab!"
Clang, Clang, Clang——
A series of sword blades thrust out from the gaps in the shield array, instantly piercing the bodies of the two orcs.
"Roar!"
"Roar!"
Screams and roars of pain rang out, and the two orcs immediately retreated away from the shield formation. Although their bodies were scarred and bloody, they did not fall to the ground due to injuries, but showed an even more ferocious fighting spirit.
"Attack!"
Anduin Lothar took the opportunity to look into the chaotic battlefield. Seeing that the soldiers who had not had time to come over were already at a complete disadvantage, he quickly shouted and issued an order.
Amidst the sound of metal colliding, the soldiers who formed the shield formation immediately withdrew their shields and dispersed. Then, groups of three or four people shouted to cheer themselves up and rushed towards the orcs.
Anduin Lothar also rushed out, and he was the fastest.
He rushed past an injured orc, thrust out his sword, and plunged the sword into the orc's chest.
Anduin Lothar did not stop to see the result of the battle, but followed the momentum of the charge and drew his sword and continued to charge forward.
He looked very anxious, because among the soldiers who had not arrived in time to form a shield formation, Karen was one of them.
At this time, an orc casually waved his fist and hit Karen's shield, causing him to stagger back.
Taking advantage of the victory, the orc pursued him, leaping forward and covering a distance of more than two meters, grabbing Karen's head with his hand and knocking him to the ground.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Then, the orc raised the metal hammer in his other hand with a grin and was about to drop it.
"stop!"
Anduin Lothar roared with bulging veins, because he was too far away from Karen, and there were several orcs in between, so he had no time to go to support him.
At this moment, a beam of light suddenly passed by Anduin Lothar and instantly penetrated the back of the orc's head.
The orc suddenly lost his life, and his heavy body hit Karen's body with a 'bang'.
Anduin Lothar was surprised. He quickly turned his head and glanced behind him, and saw Corwin raising his hand and pointing.
The grateful eyes flashed away, and Anduin Lothar turned around again and quickly rushed to an orc in front of him.
He bent down and slid to avoid the opponent's weapon sweep, and then Anduin Lothar quickly slashed the orc's back with his long sword.
The huge wound made the orc roar in pain.
When Anduin Lothar saw that the opponent had not lost resistance, he immediately changed his attack method, quickly added a blow, and stabbed the sword directly into the opponent's back.
This time, the orc finally screamed and threw himself to the ground.
Buzz——
At this moment, a beam of light suddenly shot into the sky, soared more than twenty meters high, and quickly turned into a semicircular barrier, covering the entire battlefield upside down.
Rich holy light filled the entire barrier.
The soldier who had fallen to the ground and groaned quickly lost his pain and stood up slowly with a shocked look on his face.
The soldier who could barely resist the attack and was played with by the orcs like a toy suddenly felt a force coming out of thin air within his body.
Facing the attack of the orcs again, they would no longer be easily knocked away, but could barely withstand one or two attacks.
Anduin Lothar once again penetrated the chest of an orc with his sword.
He raised his foot and kicked away the orc who was grabbing his wrist, then turned to look at Kewen and shouted happily: "Well done Kewen!!!"
At this moment, Anduin Lothar suddenly felt a tightness on the back of his neck, and then his body suddenly stood up, causing him to fly backwards in a daze.
Taking advantage of the gap of flying upside down, he finally discovered the reason, but it was a strong brown-skinned orc who threw him away.
Bang!
After flipping around for two weeks, Anduin Lothar finally hit the ground after flying nearly ten meters.
He shook his dizzy head, and then glanced at the strong orc who was striding towards him with two beast spines on his back.
His pupils shrank, and Anduin Lothar quickly looked around for the missing weapon, but he found that the weapon had fallen too far, and it was too late for him to get up and pick it up.
At this moment, he suddenly noticed something next to him.
That was a hand cannon given to him by the king of the other side when he went to Ironforge this time.
Seeing this, Anduin Lothar quickly reached out, picked up the hand cannon, and pointed it at the orcs who had already approached.
The orc obviously didn't know what a hand cannon was, and he dared to block the muzzle of the gun with his palm.
boom!
Amidst the explosion, the projectiles shot out from the barrel of the hand cannon, directly shattering most of the orc's palm.
…
In the distance, Kewen was always paying attention to the entire battlefield.
In the previous time travels, although he had witnessed too much plot inertia, he had also witnessed many plot changes.
So he has long been prepared for the 'butterfly effect'.
Because of this, he successfully rescued Karen just now, unlike in the original plot, where Anduin Lothar arrived in time to save his son.
At this time, Kewen maintained the Holy Light Barrier while paying close attention to Anduin Lothar's situation.
Seeing that the plot of the other party was back on track, he withdrew some of his attention and diverted some attention to the orcs.
"Arcane Missile!"
Bang!
A burst of magic suddenly flew out from behind, knocking away an orc who was charging towards Kewen.
"Sir, be careful!" Khadgar's voice sounded: "The enemy has made you the primary target! Arcane Shield!"
As he spoke, Khadgar quickly raised his hand and added a magic shield around himself and Medivh...
