Have you ever had the experience of fighting side by side with your former life-and-death enemies?
Rick hadn't before.
But now he has it.
Rick is a Wodun snake man. He is a snake man in the traditional sense. He believes in Los Acetaris and follows Warwick.
Guardian Warwick was one of the three guardians of the Holy Land. The other two were Kotech and Sulsis.
They are the heroes, legends, and guardians of the snake people.
Standing next to Rick is a snake-man faithless man. Rick knows his name clearly. His name is Tyke.
How could he forget Tek?
Three years ago, it was this Tek who led a large group of unbelievers to invade his village and killed many of Warwick's followers.
Rick's sister also died in the disaster.
Rick wanted to kill Tyke, skin him, and throw him in the desert to be dried into a snake by the scorching sun.
The hatred between ordinary snakes and unbelievers has been accumulated over many years, and it has become a hatred on the level of life-and-death enemies.
The snakemen are an ancient race, even as old as the first generation of trolls. They are one of the intelligent life forms originally born in Azeroth.
Trolls and snakemen lived in peace more than a hundred thousand years ago. Setalis was the loa who ruled the fertile region of Zandalar.
During the invasion of the Old Gods, this area fell during the war between the trolls and the aqir.
Mythrax the Deconstructor, a fearsome Enlaki general, was sent to occupy the area.
Cetalis intervenes and fights him.
Setaris defeated it and buried it under Attu'aman, but she also sacrificed herself.
This battle also turned this area into a desert, so the trolls migrated to more habitable places. The snake people continued to multiply in the desert, living in the most sacred place in the land.
After witnessing this destructive power, the serpent-men realized that no one could be allowed to awaken Mishrax again.
Later, a hero emerged from the snake people, his name was Sulsis, and he believed that the tomb must also be sealed.
Sulsis was unable to complete this arduous task alone, so Kotek and Warwick extended a helping hand. In this way, the Guardian of the Snakemen was established.
Together they built a barrier to seal the remains of Mythrax within the Great Pyramid.
To ensure that the tomb would never be reopened, each guardian forged a key and imbued it with their own power.
As the days passed, Kothek became greedy for power. He intended to break the seal of Attu'aman and use the power of Misrakis to conquer Zandalari.
He formed an army that did his bidding, and anyone who dared to resist was slaughtered.
Sursis bore the brunt.
Before dying, Sulsis left a message for another guardian, Warwick, warning him of Kothek's betrayal.
Then the snake people split into civil strife. The traditional snake people followed Warwick and formed an army of disbelievers formed by Kotech, starting a long-lasting civil war.
Rick is an orthodox snake-man who follows Warwick, while Tek is an unbeliever who follows Kotek.
Rick has always wanted to kill this unbeliever, to avenge the many ordinary snakemen who died tragically at his hands, and to avenge his own sister.
However, Rick can't do this now. Even if this life-and-death enemy is facing away from him, he can kill him with just a stab of his spear.
He won't do that.
Because he is now fighting against the life-and-death enemy of the snake man with his own life-and-death enemy!
a month ago.
While ordinary snakemen were fighting against the increasingly rampant unbelievers, a green, extremely strong monster invaded the area.
They don't care whether the snake people are unbelievers or ordinary snake people, they just kill them indiscriminately.
The unbelievers and ordinary snakemen suffered heavy losses. The green-skinned monsters pushed them all the way. The snakemen who were already in internal strife were unable to resist such enemies.
At this time, the snake people's hero Warwick Guardian stood up. He called on the snake people to unite, otherwise the inheritance of Setalis will be broken today.
The unbelievers no longer believe in Setaris, and they are not interested in part of Warwick's appeal at all.
However, Warwick revealed the fact that if the snake people do not unite, they will really be exterminated by this green-skinned monster.
After all, whether they are unbelievers or traditional snake people, they are all snake people and descendants of Setaris.
After trying to communicate with the enemy to no avail, the Emperor of the Faithless, once one of the Guardians, now claims to be the former Guardian of Emperor Kotech.
He accepted Warwick's proposal, and the Faithless and ordinary snakemen united to fight against these enemies who invaded the Volton region.
Half a month ago.
The great Warwick died in order to break up the rear. He was chopped into pieces by two of the most powerful warriors among the green-skinned monsters.
Ordinary snake people have lost their support, and Setalis' faith and inheritance are about to be cut off.
Even without these green-skinned orcs, ordinary snake people still feel that the unbelievers will not make it easy for them.
However, at this time, the Emperor of the Unbelievers, Kotech the Great, repented due to the death of Warwick, his former friend and later enemy.
Emperor Kotech reaffirmed his faith in Setaris and vowed to lead the remaining snakemen to drive the enemy out of Wo'dun.
From now on, snake people are snake people, and there will be no unbelievers anymore.
Wharton is the Wharton of Setaris, the Wharton of the Serpents. Not the trolls, let alone these green-skinned monsters.
Under the strong pressure of the enemy, under the leadership of Emperor Kotek who returned from his own way.
The Faithless and ordinary Snakemen, who had fought to the death with each other's relatives' blood on each other's hands, had no choice but to unite under the command of Emperor Kotech to jointly resist these green-skinned monsters.
However, the fact is that even if the snake people unite, they are still no match for these green-skinned monsters!
The monsters bring their wargs, the fearsome wolf cavalry. In the flat desert, they come and go like the wind!
If they want to attack the snake people at night, they attack at night. If they want to attack during the day, they attack during the day. If the snake people want to fight back, they can't catch up with them.
The territory of the snake people in the Wharton area was gradually eroded by these green-skinned monsters, and the snake people fell one after another.
Just like today, the orcs attacked a snakeman village in the desert. Rick and Tyke, who were once life-and-death enemies, were ordered to bring people to defend. In the chaos of the battle, the snakemen were no match for these green-skinned monsters.
The soldiers fell one after another.
There were only a dozen snake soldiers left, led by Rick and Tyke, making the final resistance.
"Ha~ Rick, I originally wanted to kill you and hang you on the rocks in the desert to dry. I didn't expect that I would die with you at the hands of these monsters today! What a pity!" The powerful snake warrior
, the former elite of the Faithless, said with a sneer when he and Rick resisted the enemy back to back.
"Humph! Death will not be the end. After death, we will all go to the kingdom of Setaris. At that time, the great Him will judge you and you unbelievers!" Rick responded coldly, grinding his two venomous fangs.
Tektronix.
However, the movements of his hands did not stop for a moment. While speaking, he used his spear to knock away a flying arrow that was aimed at Tyke.
"We are going to die. Whether we go to report to the troll Bwonsamdi or to report to Setaris, it's the same." Tyke blocked the battle ax from the green-skinned monster, and the huge force shook his arm.
numb.
"Hoarse~"
The snake man opened his mouth, and his two fangs shot out venom, spraying it on the green-skinned monster.
The monster screamed, and smoke billowed out from the place where the poison was spilled.
Rick looked at the battlefield. Most of the snakemen in the villages and towns had retreated.
But most of the snake warriors brought by him and Tyke were also dead.
"For Setalis!" he shouted, rushing towards a green-skinned monster who was about to attack the sneak attack on Tek.
The enemy who tried to sneak attack was killed by him.
Tektronix is safe for now.
Poof!
A sharp arrow penetrated his chest and broke his heart.
"Ah~ Setalis. I'm going to your country." Rick fell.
"Rick!" The former unbeliever rushed towards the green-skinned monster Wolf Cavalry who killed Rick with flying arrows like a wild python.
Halfway through, he was cut into two pieces by a huge axe. The remaining energy of the charge carried his lower body for more than ten meters, and his upper body fell on the same spot.
Tyke watched his lower body fall, his eyes slowly closed, and he felt that his life force was leaving quickly.
"Whatever. I have to go to Setalis's country to report..."
The unbeliever who had killed countless ordinary snake-men finally closed his eyes.
Snapped!
A soft sound.
His head was crushed.
But Tyke didn't feel anything anymore.
He is already dead.
The orc who can easily chop down the elite snake-man elites with one knife is a very young-looking orc with a slender figure, and he is carrying a huge axe.
The other orc warriors looked at the orc warrior who looked not very strong and was very young in awe.
"Even snakes with teeth will die under the claws of hungry wolves." The young orc boy looked at the corpses of the snake people with disdain and said.
"The desert will be taken by us." The young orc looked in the direction of Nazmir. "Ner'zhul will know my abilities."
The orc warriors were obedient.
No one dared to answer the voice of this young evil wolf.
The young orc is a young legend in the clan. Before he came to this world, he even killed a terrifying Gronn by himself on the grasslands of Nagrand.
As his name means "Heart of a Giant", he is a giant killer.
"The son of the powerful Gormash, the chieftain said that after destroying this reptile supply point, we should return to the main army..." An orc officer boldly came over and said.
"Call my name!" the lanky young orc roared.
The orc officer who spoke was startled.
He whispered: "The powerful giant killer, the great hungry wolf, Lord Grommash. We should..."
"You, go back and tell Gormash that his son will continue to win for him. Now, I will lead you to the throne of these reptiles!" The young orc mounted his giant wolf mount coldly and arrogantly.
