Jaina's hair was wet with sweat, and she was too tired to continue wielding the sword. Seeing brave soldiers rushing over to protect her, she just silently restored her magic power, and her eyes were filled with tears.
tears.
On the battlefield, the sound of fighting has weakened a lot, and it is obvious that more and more human soldiers have been overwhelmed by the swarming undead army.
The magic power was not enough for a basic teleportation. Sweat ran down Jaina's forehead, stinging her eyes and making her eyes uncomfortable. As the most magically gifted young mage among the younger generation of the Magic City of Dalaran, Jaina's accomplishments in space teleportation
extraordinary.
But she was too tired from the continuous high-intensity fighting, and her body's natural mana recovery speed seemed to have slowed down a lot. This was a situation that Jaina had never encountered in her life.
"Boom~", suddenly a loud noise came from the rear, followed by explosions one after another, which seemed to be the explosions of grenades and small artillery!
"What's going on?" Reggie Donghan stopped in shock and looked toward the dark night sky behind him. Naturally, the undead don't need lighting. They will smell the flesh and blood of all living things and use this as their direction.
go ahead.
In fact, after initially teleporting to the back of the Whispering Canyon and breaking into Mount Hyjal, Reki Winterhan's soldiers were not many. There were only about a few dozen necromancers and wizards, and hundreds of ghouls and abominations.
They continued to attack the night elf villages that had not yet been completely evacuated, obtaining new blood food, creating new ghouls and abominations, so the team continued to grow, and then used the killed night elf civilians and patrol soldiers along the way.
The corpses were summoned, summoning more undead armies.
By the time they advanced to the vicinity of Malorne Sanctuary, Reggie Winterhan had already snowballed into a team of more than 15,000 various soldiers. If you include the skeletons and teleportation summoned during the battle,
The total strength of the crypt demons who came here is close to 20,000.
With a quarter of its strength, the human army resisted his undead army for more than two days, and their performance was quite amazing.
As a former student of the Lich King Ner'zhul, Reki Winterhan, an orc warlock, was very talented in the military field. In fact, almost all the lichs in the undead disaster created by the Burning Legion were resourceful.
Reggie Donghan faced the Theramore human army and adopted a simple "adding fuel and jealousy" tactic. He first used the army of ghouls and abominations, combined with the summoned skeletons of the necromancers, to attack continuously, achieving the goal of
Understand the effect and purpose of "tiring the enemy".
Then, by summoning the crypt demons to attack behind the human defense lines, they broke through the human position in one fell swoop and forced the human army into a desperate situation.
He had this capital to spend, so he was not afraid at all. However, the tenacity of the human army was more or less beyond his expectation. All the five hundred crypt demons that were summoned were thrown into the battlefield, and they finally tore apart
A breakthrough was made.
Therefore, Reggie Donghan left behind only a small number of ghouls to guard the summoning circle maintained by the necromancers. Moreover, he had previously concluded that, at least in the rear, there was no army capable of supporting humans.
of the army.
Some of the ghouls and abominations immediately retreated back under the command of the necromancer, preparing to see what happened.
Then Reggie Donghan heard a sound that seemed louder than the explosion just now. The explosions of muskets, small artillery, grenades, and explosive barrels were mixed together, and he also felt the energy of natural spells and holy light spells.
.
"I hate the Holy Light!" Reggie Donghan muttered. As an undead creature, what he fears most is the Holy Light. Therefore, the few paladins and priests in Theramore's human army
, is the main target that Reggie Donghan ordered to kill from the very beginning.
As a lich, Reggie Donghan has a phylactery, so he is not afraid of any death, but he has tasted the holy light of a human paladin before, and he doesn't want to experience that taste again.
So he looked at the one or two hundred humans who were surrounded and still resisting tenaciously, hesitated for a moment, and decided to deal with the trouble from the rear first.
After all, Reggie Donghan acted privately this time. If he was blocked by night elves or other races, he would not have the support from the Burning Legion.
In order to quickly capture the Malorne Sanctuary, Reggie Donghan has built four large teleportation circles behind the position. In addition to teleporting the undead army that has been summoned from the Dark Whisper Canyon, there are also two
This large teleportation circle was specially teleported from the northern part of the Kingdom of Lordaeron to the crypt demon army.
However, now, he saw that the green evil light emitted by the four large teleportation arrays was being extinguished one by one. Obviously, these arrays were the first targets of sneak attacks by this unknown army.
"A group of despicable and shameful cowards who only know how to sneak attacks!" Reggie Donghan was furious and cursed in an unpleasant and harsh voice. Then he suddenly stretched out his hands with only knuckles left and grabbed the food that was passing by at both ends.
Ghoul, the palms of his hands bloomed with dark green light.
The two ghouls immediately screamed. You must know that these low-level ghouls deliberately eliminated their vocal cords after being transformed. After all, the Burning Legion has always regarded ghouls as low-level cannon fodder.
They need to be able to think and speak independently.
Reggie Donghan used simple and crude methods to transform the two ghouls into a "sacrifice shadow", without paying any attention to the painful wailing from the depths of the ghouls' souls: "Go and see what happened next.
What? What kind of enemies are coming!"
The "Shadow of Sacrifice" immediately flew to the northeast. Before Reggie Donghan could continue to move forward, an undead wizard ran over in a panic and reported: "Sir, the ghoul we sent back to support,
More than three hundred have been lost, but we still haven’t found out which race’s army it is. Their firepower is very strong, and we can’t break in too close!”
The ball of undead fire in the head of Reggie Winterskeleton shook, and an ice-like light shone from the eye sockets: "You are all a bunch of idiots! Keep sending more ghouls to rush over.
!”
As he spoke, he continued to float toward the northeast, "Whoosh~", there was constant firing from small artillery, and various projectiles were thrown towards him, knocking down several of the ghoul followers around him.
Reggie Donghan ignored these stray artillery shots and stopped. Under his feet was an intact teleportation circle. The various runes carved on the ground had been eradicated and destroyed.
After all, the twelve small teleportation runestones had been cleaned by the holy light and completely turned into waste.
This is the westernmost one among the four large teleportation circles. It is also the only one that has been recaptured by the undead army, but it is of no use anymore.
After being transformed into a lich, Reggie Donghan's height has reached 5 meters, which is high enough for him to look around without any obstacles.
The current battle is taking place near the second destroyed teleportation circle. It looks dark there, with only some scattered torches and burning fires, and barely any light. From the Lich's perspective,
He could only see some small black shadows appearing occasionally.
When Reggie Donghan "walked" near the battlefield of the firefight, he finally saw the situation clearly. Near the second teleportation circle, within a range of at least thirty meters, countless corpses of ghouls were piled up.
Obviously, they have never been able to break through this not-so-distant journey to death.
"I saw kobolds, gnolls, ogres, harpies, dwarves, and a group of bear-men!" shouted a skinny, wretched-looking necromancer. He was Reggie Winter.
The only one among Han's many necromancers summoned from the Azshara region.
Launch a feint attack from the Azshara region to attract the night elves and other possible racial armies, so as to open a summoning teleportation circle for the Legion's vanguard in other areas near Mount Hyjal. This combat plan was proposed by Reki Winterhan.
, and got the approval of Tichondrius, the commander of the Vanguard Legion.
This plan was indeed successful in a sense. Tichondrius had already summoned all the fallen princes of Arthas in Felwood, causing the night elves there to suffer.
And this is exactly the reason why Regi Winterhan dared to act privately. Before Archimonde was summoned to teleport to the continent of Kalimdor, he was the supreme commander of the Burning Legion east of Mount Hyjal.
After arriving at this fighting position, the undead launched another attack. This time Reggie Donghan finally saw clearly how the opposing army defended themselves.
They rely on a trench that is neither very deep nor very long, and use muskets and small artillery as their main means of attack. Once the sea of ghouls approaches, they will throw grenades and explosive barrels to intercept the undead attacking troops at all times.
Within a range of twenty to thirty meters.
The spells of the necromancers and the summoned skeleton mages were intercepted by the spellcasters hiding behind the trenches. The bombardment of various single-target spells was no less spectacular than the group-damaging spells.
.
There are also two strange spellcasters, tall and burly, hidden under gray cloaks. From time to time they throw out gray-white spells, swallowing up the spells of the necromancers.
The spells of these two casters made Reggie Donghan feel a little familiar, but he didn't know or confirm whether they were shadow spells.
And among this group of short figures, there was a short guy who would raise a long sword burning with red flames from time to time. The familiar light that made Reggie Donghan feel uncomfortable flashed through, which made the Lich
Even more unhappy.
"They are all a bunch of trash!" He yelled loudly. Because the casualties were too large, the following ghouls had no time to supplement them. He had to direct the remaining ghouls to retreat, the wizards and mages, and then cast "
Frost Armor" spell.
"Frost Armor" is similar to the "Frost Armor" of ordinary mages, but as a lich, Reggie Donghan's spell can not only enhance his physical defense, but also has attack lag and deceleration within a certain range.
It also has certain spell resistance.
He decided to personally lead the charge. He saw clearly that as long as he broke into the trenches and fought with this army that was good at long-range attacks, there would often be only one outcome: he would win the final victory!
