The raging flames covered the sky and illuminated the entire Stormwind City.
call!
A lizard warrior with flames all over his body was running around in an alley. He had dropped his weapon and was running forward with all four limbs together, as if there was an invisible god of death chasing him behind him. His eyes were filled with tears.
It's an expression of fear.
At this time, the lizard warrior felt like he was a poor animal being chased by a predator in the forest. He could only keep running away in pursuit of the slightest possibility of survival.
"Da da da--"
The sound of heavy horse hooves sounded from behind it, and the lizard man suddenly became even more panicked, running forward with all his strength, and letting out an ear-piercing scream at the top of his lungs.
I saw a tall horse covered in heavy armor squeezing in from the other end of the alley, blowing out wisps of white air from its nose, approaching the lizard warrior very quickly, and then I saw a cold light flashing, sitting astride it
The majestic figures on those large horses directly nailed the fleeing lizard warriors to the ground with one shot.
The thick gun body passed through the body, and the lizard man screamed in pain, swinging his hands and feet, as if he was still trying to struggle, but he saw the black-armored guard slowly turning his horse's head and walking in front of it.
"Guga——"
"Dirty reptile!"
The black-armored guard pulled the reins, and the big horse neighed, stood up, and then trampled the lizard man's head to pieces with a hoof.
After killing the lizard man neatly and neatly, the black-armored guards did not even look at the corpse lying on the ground. After pulling out their spears, they continued to patrol around. Following Joel's order, all those who invaded Stormwind City
All lizardmen will be killed without mercy.
Hundreds of lizardmen were lucky enough to escape from the siege of the fire and desperately fled out of the city. The black-armored guards led a small team to chase them, but they had no choice but to give up because the fire was too strong and watched the lizards from a distance.
The man dragged his injured body farther and farther away. At this moment, the ten magic field plasticists who had been hiding far away in the army suddenly seemed to feel something strange and raised their heads slightly.
Between their eyebrows, there was a small six-pointed star magic circle tattooed on them. They looked at each other, nodded to each other, and then mobilized their magic power, and the black robes all over their bodies moved automatically without wind.
The magic array between the eyebrows of these magicians was frantically mobilizing magic power and flickering slightly. A large amount of magic power was poured into this magic array, and the magic array they had previously deployed outside the city also began to flash simultaneously.
"Magic runaway!"
Several magic formation shapers clenched their fists towards the outside of the city. Then they saw that the magic formation they had set up outside the city suddenly erupted into a colorful flame, and the ground rumbled and trembled, just in time to kill those who were dying.
The running lizard man was wrapped in it.
In an instant, the elements on the magic formation began to expand crazily, and the elements of each system gathered together, forming a series of low-level magic attacks in an instant.
The water blades whirled and cut into the bodies of these lizard men; the ground thorns were sharp and elusive, penetrating their bodies; the wind arrows whizzed and penetrated their vital points in a flash; the flames exploded and swallowed up the lizard men in an instant.
.
At this moment, all the elements gathered in the magic formation burst out at the same time, forming a large number of magic attacks in an instant, killing all the lizardmen who entered it.
The black-armored guards who originally watched these lizardmen escape did not expect to see such a terrifying scene, and couldn't help but be stunned. They looked at each other, and the meaning in their eyes was more obvious.
Even they couldn't survive such a sudden and intensive magic attack.
Those magic position plasticizers, as long as they choose a suitable geographical location, the power they can burst out is comparable to a brigade of mages!
Fortunately, these formidable magicians are his comrades-in-arms. No matter what kind of army they are, they will not want to fight such strange enemies.
The power of the magic rampage was extremely terrifying, but its duration was very short. It was only effective for about 10 seconds, but it was enough to turn the land into a hell. After the magic circle on the ground flashed rapidly for a few times, it finally dimmed completely.
Go down, these magic circles have been destroyed.
As for those lizardmen who escaped from the city, they naturally died without any body parts in the face of such a violent magic bombardment.
After ensuring that no lizardmen escaped from Stormwind City, the black-armored guards rode down the streets to search for surviving lizardmen. Even the corpses would be stabbed in case any lizardmen pretended to be dead and escaped.
, and only after checking and confirming that it is safe, they will dismount, take off their armor and start putting out the fire.
No one expected that Old Joel would dare to actually set fire to the city. This man really didn't care what anyone around him thought about him. Just to destroy the lizardmen, he dared to burn down five points of Stormwind City with a fire.
an area.
Fortunately, Hilo had thought of the possibility of fire when it was building the city. The distance between the houses was not too close. At the same time, each area was built according to the plan, with a spacious mirage avenue in between, so the fire was less likely to occur.
Being able to burn for so long without losing control.
But even so, everyone's eyes on Joel became complicated at this moment. This man dared to step forward at the most critical moment, stop an enemy several times his own, and persisted until the last second. At the same time,
He can also order the burning of cities and homes that everyone has worked hard to build without hesitation, and is ruthless.
No one can understand what old Joel is thinking.
The lizardmen who invaded the city were burned to death and ran away. Naturally, everyone could not stand by and watch their homes being completely burned. They immediately put down their weapons and rolled up their sleeves to start putting out the fire. Only then did they realize that Old Joel actually
The sand and water wheels were prepared before the operation, and they came in handy at this time.
Everyone worked hard to put out the raging fire. As for the war, the outcome was decided the moment the fire started.
In this battle to defend Stormwind City, Joel destroyed nearly 6,000 lizardmen with one-fifth of Stormwind City destroyed and nearly 300 soldier names.
----------------------------------------
As the killed lizardmen abandoned their armor and fled back to the cave in panic, the dark barrier finally faded ahead of time. When the bright moonlight shone on Stormwind City again, everyone felt a real sense of victory.
of pride.
Faced with the siege of nearly ten thousand lizardmen, they fought hard from the afternoon until late at night, and finally won the final victory.
However, after everyone put out the fire and saw the dilapidated ruins with their own eyes, no one could cheer out.
Collapsed walls, houses burned to ashes, and a burning smell pervaded the air. Almost everywhere in sight was covered with a thick layer of black ash. No one would have imagined that the originally beautiful
Stormwind City has ended up in such a miserable state.
When Shiloh saw Stormwind City bursting into flames, his chest felt cramped, and he almost spat out a mouthful of blood - he never expected that after reminding Joel again, this old guy would actually have such a big body.
How brave, really dare to set the city on fire.
For a moment, he was so anxious that he gave up the great opportunity to hunt down the lizardmen and ordered the entire army to return to Stormwind City immediately.
When he returned to Stormwind City, the fire was still burning. As a last resort, Xiang Shiloh could only lead his troops in a circle and entered the city from the other side. When he rushed to the scene of the fire, he discovered that all the Stormwinds were still moving.
The city's soldiers have been involved in fire-fighting and disaster relief operations.
Shiloh no longer cares about pursuing responsibility. The most important thing is to put out the fire in time and restore the damage.
It wasn't until midnight, when the moon was high in the sky, that the raging fire was barely put out.
With a frosty face, Shiloh directly found Connor and Luo Nuo and ordered them to arrange manpower to reorganize the defense line and monitor the possibility of the fire rekindling. After all these arrangements were made, he angrily
Found Joel.
At this time, Joel had just withdrawn from the front line of fire-fighting and disaster relief. His armor was still steaming, and his face was covered with black ash. It was almost impossible to tell that he was a general. Instead, he looked like he had just come out of a mine.
The slaves who came out were extremely embarrassed.
Joel seemed to have expected that Hilo would come to him. The moment he saw Hilo, he was extremely indifferent. He took off his helmet and armor, put them neatly aside, and walked to Hilo alone in thin clothes.
before.
"Your Highness Shiloh, I will come here to take charge of my crime."
Joel knelt down on one knee and lowered his head, but his tone was as calm as ever, as if he didn't take the fire just now as a big deal at all.
Shiloh's cheeks turned red with anger. He pulled out the sharp sword hanging from his waist, put it directly on Joel's neck, and said angrily: "Senior, do you know how big a crime you have committed!"
"The general issued a military order and promised to wipe out all the lizardmen in one fell swoop. At this time, the battle has ended, and nearly a thousand lizardmen still fled underground. Therefore, the general has come to accept the crime and ask His Highness for punishment."
Shiloh was so angry at Joel's words that he laughed instead. He narrowed his eyes and said angrily: "Joel! Do you think I am really reluctant to kill you? You clearly know why I am angry, and now you are using word games to deceive me.
Do you think I'm still the fair-weather prince before?"
Joel raised his head, looked at Shiloh calmly with his eyes, and said: "The general issued a military order in front of the army. Since it has not been completed, he should naturally be punished according to the military order. Please punish him according to the law."
Shiloh was furious. The so-called military order was actually just a tool to make the soldiers of Stormwind City willingly obey the command of Joel, an airborne general. What really made Shiloh furious was that Joel was so bold as to actually set fire to Stormwind City.
In order to win, he can even burn down the city he protects with his own hands. Then in the future, in order to win, I don’t know what other extraordinary things this old guy can do.
Next time, betray your comrades or betray Hilo!
At this thought, Shiloh's murderous intention surged in his heart. He exerted slight force on his arm, and the sharp sword immediately left a shallow scar on Joel's neck.
Damn it, what kind of bullshit is there to use human courage? No matter how capable you are, can it be used as an excuse to set fires wantonly?
If this continues, how will Hilo command the military power of Stormwind City in the future, and how will he lead the citizens of Stormwind City to develop the Gulf Stream Island Chain and build a better homeland that he wants to imagine.
This old Joel must be punished!
With a thousand thoughts in his mind, Shiloh had a thought in his mind and was about to give the order to push Old Joel out and chop him, but he felt a gust of wind behind him, falling right next to him.
"Your Highness!"
The man who suddenly appeared looked a little pale, but his heroic spirit was still obvious. It was Connor who killed the armored Tyrannosaurus with his own strength.
"Shut up, Connor, I have to kill this old guy today!"
Hearing this, Connor immediately knelt down and said urgently: "Your Highness! Although Mr. Joel acts ruthlessly, he has absolutely no intention of murdering his compatriots. Talents are rare, and Your Highness cannot do anything unwise to destroy his own wings!"
"Shut up! Connor, you have been with me for a year, and you know that I hate people who stab my compatriots in the back, and now you are still interceding for him? It was only because I believed you that I handed over the command to this old guy.
, what’s the result! In the end, he used a fire to repay the entire Stormwind City!”
"Now you dare to ignore my warning and set fire to the city. Now spare his life. Who knows what he will dare to do in the future!"
Hearing this, Connor hesitated for a moment and finally said: "Your Highness, although I have not had much contact with Mr. Joel, I have heard from my grandfather since I was a child that Mr. Joel is a loyal Pontos soldier.
He will do things that betray the country."
"It is true that he acted poorly, but whether he was repelling the lizard men or directing the fire extinguishing, he took the lead. How could such a person betray his compatriots?"
"Your Highness, you have also seen with your own eyes Mr. Joel's behavior of fighting the lizard people to cut off the rear of the army. How could a person who ignores the lives of his compatriots do this?"
"Your Highness, please take back the military order and spare Mr. Joel for once."
Connor spoke resolutely. He knelt on the ground and looked directly into Shiloh's eyes without giving in. After Shiloh heard these words, he couldn't help but think of the previous retreat. Even though Joel was injured, he still resolutely blocked the way.
The scene of never taking a step back in front of a lizard man.
Even in the final breakout, he made sure that all his companions were on horseback before evacuating.
If Joel is really a villain who can attack behind his compatriots, then his behavior of cutting off the rear of the army is a bit too strange.
This old guy is full of contradictions, and they are such sharp contradictions that it is impossible to figure out what kind of person he is.
At this moment, Shiloh suddenly saw the black-armored guards surrounding him. After a long period of bloody battles and fire-fighting, some of them were already exhausted, but even so, they still stood up straight and walked to
Around Hilo.
Wow.
These black-armored guards knelt down one after another and said in unison: "Your Highness, please spare the captain!"
120 black-armored guards knelt on the ground, densely packed together, and the sound was soaring to the sky.
This time, Shiloh was completely in trouble. He glanced around at the black-armored guards, then rested his gaze on Connor's face, and finally looked at Joel.
Joel still looked like he had nothing to do with himself, so indifferent that he didn't care about his own life at all.
Shiloh stared at Joel's face, as if he wanted to directly examine his soul through his face and figure out what kind of person this contradictory old guy was. At this moment, something suddenly flashed in his mind.
With a flash of inspiration, a bold guess took shape instantly.
Could it be that this old guy issued a military order because he refused to serve under me, even at the risk of death?
At first, Shiloh was almost amused by his idea. No one would die because he disobeyed the leader. But the more he looked at Joel, the more he felt that his idea was most likely to be true.
This old guy is so crazy that he can hardly use common sense to examine him. Maybe he really wants to die to get rid of Herod's leadership.
