Chapter Eighteen - The Battle(1/2)
…………
In the camp, Nathanos looked up and checked the weather. He had been here for several months, but unfortunately, there had not been a drop of rain here. The corrosion from Draenor had an extraordinary impact on this place.
He had come to accept Khadgar's words that this land was cursed!
"The Alliance plans to attack!" Alleria came over and shared the contents of the meeting with him.
Nathanos withdrew his gaze. He had already expected Turalyon to do this, so he didn't think it was too strange. The defenses of Watchfort have been reinforced recently, and more and more supplies are being shipped.
"when?"
"Dawn the day after tomorrow."
"The day after tomorrow!" Nathanos was quite surprised and then smiled: "Turalyon is really impatient. This free day may not be enough for a soldier to think about how to write a suicide note to his family."
"He was worried that the tribe's plan would threaten this place and even other worlds, so he decided to act as soon as possible, and others agreed." Alleria looked worriedly at the Alliance soldiers who were practicing not far away. These preparations
People who go to another world may die. Alleria even thought that she might be one of them, but the human in front of her changed her.
"But this is indeed a bit urgent. How could Turalyon recruit enough volunteers in such a short period of time?"
"This is exactly what I told you a long time ago." Alleria arranged the hair that was blowing on her face. "I originally planned to return to Quel'Thalas after capturing the Dark Portal, but
Turalyon hopes that we will be stationed outside the Dark Portal at that time to provide continuous supplies and support to the expeditionary force, so..."
"You agreed?"
The female elf nodded, her eyes also asking Nathanos for his opinion. The other party quickly responded to her, and her hand was held.
"Then let's stay together."
…………
"They're coming!"
The deep voice of the trainer Rexxar was as calm as ever. Grom looked in the direction he pointed and nodded.
"I can't wait any longer!" Hellscream grabbed the Blood Roar in his hand, his eyes filled with anticipation of killing. The Warsong Clan and some orcs stayed behind. Today, the Alliance will face off against these terrible enemies.
Grom saw many Alliance soldiers crossing the land of death and rushing towards the valley. His glowing red eyes narrowed. The Alliance was almost in full force.
Next to Rexxa, the howling wolf Halasa was also howling excitedly. Rexxa smiled back at his partner.
"Come, warriors of the Warsong Clan." Grom raised his weapon and roared loudly. "The time has come to welcome the glory." He heard the shouts of the orcs, and eagerly waited for the Alliance to rush forward and die!
Turalyon pulled the reins. Their soldiers had cleared the surrounding hills. If the orcs were really retreating, there were not many of them left in Azeroth. The road to the Dark Portal
It's not easy. They need to fight their way out and clear out the evil green-skinned orcs and the tall and pale creatures who are on the same front with them.
Two warriors caught Turalyon's attention. He wasn't even entirely sure if one of them was an orc. He looked similar, but his skin was tawny rather than green, and he was taller than the other orcs.
Much taller. At the same time, his physique looked different from the others. A wolf stood beside him. Turalyon thought that it should be as intimidating as its owner. He was indeed a very powerful person.
A warrior, but he is not a leader.
Another orc, he is taller than most orcs, with black hair tied in a topknot, a black chin and glowing red eyes. He wears heavy bracers on his hands, decorated with
There was some kind of strange symbol on it. He looked at the large number of alliance troops, but he was not moved by them.
The eyes of the two people met. Turalyon saw that the orc raised an astonishingly large battle ax in salute to him. His eyes were very bright, and it was obvious that he was looking forward to this battle.
"Alliance! Up!" Turalyon shouted. Each soldier shouted his own slogan and charged down from all directions. The war drums beat.
Their plan was simple: run straight to the Dark Portal and kill as many orcs as possible in the process. Turalyon entered the battle bravely, swinging his hammer left and right, knocking down every yelling and charging beast.
Orcs came up to block his way.
The first two cavalrymen who rushed towards the Dark Portal were hit by two battle axes flying out of the battlefield, and their necks were not protected by armor, and they fell directly from their horses. Rexxar used his strong arms to push away an alliance.
The soldier easily retrieved his weapon from the corpse. When he looked up, a human was already standing in front of him. Lexa looked at him carefully. From the outside, this human was not strong, but he
There was no fear in his eyes at all. He was holding a serrated long sword with the blood of an orc still on it, and a gorgeous blue long bow behind his back. This human was not a commander, but he was one.
A powerful warrior, just like himself, but one thing will not change, he is the enemy!
Rexxar jumped over the corpse lying on the ground with his back foot and rushed forward. Nathanos also noticed that this guy was special. He looked like an orc but was not. The opponent's two hands grasped the weapon tightly and jumped up.
Kong, raised the ax in his right hand, ready to knock someone's head off.
Nathanos did not raise the night blade to defend himself. On the one hand, he did not know how powerful the opponent was. On the other hand, if he chose to block, he would not be able to dodge when the opponent's ax in his other hand attacked. Nathanos
Si jumped back to avoid this attack. What he never expected was that Rexxar actually regained his strength when he landed, swung his battle ax with lightning speed, and aimed at Nathanos's
left arm.
"Damn it!" The humans took the blow with great difficulty, shouting in their hearts that it was a dangerous situation. They stood at a stalemate.
"Is this all you have, human?"
"It seems you haven't won yet!" Nathanos mocked unceremoniously. Rexxar showed a weird smile, "Indeed, but I am not alone!"
"What!" Nathanos was startled. He turned his head and found a wolf rushing towards him on the right! In desperation, Nathanos broke away from Rexxa forcefully, kicked him in the abdomen, and the two of them pulled him away.
He kept his distance, and Halasa the Howling Wolf jumped into the air, almost injuring Nathanos, but only grazed his clothes, leaving three claw marks.
"Nathanos!" Alleria noticed in the crowd that he was dueling with a tall guy, and immediately ran to her side, killing all the guys in the way.
"Can you 'play' with wolves, my lady?" He glanced at Alleria with a smile. The female elf understood what he meant and stared at the howling wolf beside Lexa.
"This is not fun, but I won't lose to a beast!"
Halasa seemed to understand Alleria's words, he made a grinding sound in his mouth and glared at her fiercely.
Two versus two, a competition of strength!
Turalyon rode his horse across the battlefield, hammering and stabbing. He used all the fighting skills he had learned. At the same time, he chanted prayers, healed with holy light, and blessed his body.
Warrior. Until he looked again at the orc leader he noticed earlier. The orc seemed to be dancing a dance of death in the Alliance army, with the sound of the tomahawk in his hand chopping and the screams of the soldiers falling.
The sounds reflect each other.
"That's a troublesome guy," he said to himself.
Nathanos also noticed Grom during the fight with Rexxar, but he discovered something that Turayan did not notice - the orc stopped and began to give orders to the surrounding orcs, seeming to make
He made a decision. He turned around and shouted something to a cloaked figure standing by the portal. The man nodded. The orc leader yelled something else. All the beasts in the valley
People responded to his call and began to gradually retreat away from the Alliance army and towards the Dark Portal.
Although Nathanos knew that he couldn't be distracted when facing Rexxar, the strange feeling made him have to stay vigilant at all times. He noticed that the cloaked figure was approaching the right side of the Dark Door, and pulled the button next to the doorpost.
What was it? Nathanos immediately recognized the thing. It was metal, and it was still reflecting light in the sun. The way the man played with the thing made Nathanos feel nervous. That action was very familiar to him, because
Some time ago, he had been learning mechanics from the great craftsman Gelbin Mekkatorque in Stormwind City! He still remembered the conversation with the dwarf king:
'How safe is the subway you designed?'
'Uh... Okay, well, this! You know, this is cutting-edge technology, so we can't fully guarantee its security. But I bet you that we will improve it. Its security will eventually be as safe as ours.
Comparable to the safest inventions.'
And the orcs in front of them suddenly began to try their best to pass through the Dark Portal.
"I'll do it!" Nathanos shouted out immediately after the words suddenly flashed into his mind for some unknown reason.
"Alleria! Go and inform everyone else immediately!"
"What?" Alleria dodged one of Halasa's attacks. The wolf was almost tireless.
After Nathanos once again parried Rexxar's attack, he shouted to Alleria: "The Horde is going to blow up the portal!"
The female elf was shocked. Although she didn't know how Nathanos judged the news, she was willing to believe him. Thasdora shot a sharp arrow again, but Halasa dodged it, but Alleria was just trying to divert it.
He focused his attention and immediately turned his head and rushed towards where Turalyon was.
"It's the goblins, right?" Nathanos cursed. He understood that the dwarfs had always been on the side of the Alliance, unlike the goblins who had appeared recently. As long as there was money to be made, the goblins would make the ones they made.
Little things are sold to both camps.
"I don't know what you are talking about!" Rexxar was also shocked by what Nathanos shouted just now. At the same time, he was also thinking in his heart, if it is true what this human said, then what will happen to the orcs here who are fighting desperately?
Do it. He must ask Hellscream! Rexxar whistled, and Halasa the Howling Wolf immediately pounced on Nathanos, forcing the opponent to retreat.
When Nathanos came back to his senses, Rexxar had already run into the crowd and was unable to aim. "Damn it!" He shook the sword in his hand hard and immediately ran towards the Dark Portal! He nocked his bow and arrow
On Longoru, a fatal arrow was fired at the cloaked enemy. The man screamed in pain, dropped the device in his hand, and stretched his hands towards his neck.
Nathanos ran over and grabbed the strange instrument. It was about the size of a small shield, was obviously some kind of machinery, and was making a strange ticking sound. He analyzed the object as quickly as possible, but its
The structure was too unfamiliar to Nathanos. At the same time, Mekkatorque's voice came out to disturb him:
"The structures on these drawings are so messy. Why doesn't anyone realize the mouse..."
Nathanos slapped himself anxiously, his forehead soaked with dusty sweat. He couldn't make this thing stop. No matter what it was used for, it looked like it was going to start working soon.
Already.
"Nathanos!"
He heard someone calling his name, it was Khadgar. Fortunately, Alleria was also next to the Archmage. He waved his hand here, and at the same time, he held a huge ball of arcane energy in his other hand!
Nathanos understood immediately.
"I hope your aiming ability is not bad!" Nathanos threw the instrument into the air with force! Khadgar released the energy ball, taking the thing to a higher place and cutting through the sky. It looked like
