Chapter 46 - The Last Call
…………
Outside the Tower of Windrunner, countless figures were hidden in the surrounding trees. Zujin observed the movements of the guards below. The scout he sent to investigate happened to come back.
"How is it?" Zujin asked with a whistle.
The troll scout reported in front of the leader's ear.
"What?" Zujin looked at the scout in disbelief. "No one from the Windrunner family is staying here?"
The scout nodded. He could see the change in the leader's expression. "Sylvanas Windrunner and Vereesa Windrunner went to Silvermoon City. Lyras Windrunner is not here. We are still looking for traces of him."
."
"We must find that brat!" Zujin clenched his fists. He vowed this time to seize the opportunity to make the Windrunner family pay the price. Moreover, he already knew that he had no way out. He just received a report from the rear that the Destruction
The hammer burned the forest, which made him very angry. After settling the matter here, Zulkin decided to go to Orgrim himself to argue.
"Are we still attacking?"
"Of course." Zujin replied. Not only him, but his warriors also longed for revenge, and the weapons in their hands longed for the blood of elves. Now that the opportunity was right in front of him, he was not allowed to back down.
"action!"
Deep in the forest on the other side
Alleria jumped over the bushes in front of her. She did not go to the Tower of Windrunner in the original direction, but went directly to Silvermoon City. She also saw the fire in the sky. At that time, she was very angry and turned pale.
She even wanted to go back and attack the Horde, but she was outnumbered and she believed in Turalyon.
She would stop them. All she could do was go to Silvermoon City to bring in reinforcements. She also made a difficult choice. Between her family and the kingdom, Alleria chose the latter. She knew that the trolls would go to the Tower of Windrunner.
, and there was no defense there. Alleria prayed that her siblings were not in their home at this moment.
"Hurry up!" She patted her leg anxiously. "The sun well is up there, please help me arrive in time." Alleria held the sword in her hand and ran through the forest, the leaves and branches flapping.
Her figure looked a little blurry.
She now regrets it. If she had not decided to leave Silvermoon City, would all of this have happened? Anastarian Sunstrider and those members of the Council are obviously wiser than her and can naturally help better.
The arrangement of these young races. This idea flashed through and was rejected by Alleria. Anastarian believed that the Horde would never become a threat to them, so he believed that the Alliance had nothing worth paying attention to. No matter what happened in the outside world
, Quel'Thalas must be safe, he was obviously wrong.
Thinking of this, her pace quickened, she jumped over a low bush and came to a very small clearing, and then she found that she was being aimed at the throat by a sharp hunting arrow.
The bow lifter was dressed similarly to Alleria, or they looked very similar. The long hair was exposed from under the hood of the cloak, and it was an ivory white color that Alleria was very familiar with and could never mistake.
.
"Vereesa?"
The elf lowered the bow in her hand, her wide blue eyes filled with surprise and relief. "Alleria?" The other party threw the bow aside and threw herself into her arms. "You're back!"
"Of course." Alleria naturally stroked her head gently. "Are you okay?" She paused and asked again. "Where is Sylvanas? Are your family members safe?"
"They are all fine." Vereesa replied, picking up her weapon. "The second sister is patrolling near the river bank. My parents are also safe. They are now in Silvermoon City. Only Lilas..." She paused,
This frightened Alleria.
"What happened to Lilas?"
Vereesa shook her head: "He disappeared. He had a quarrel with his parents a few days ago. He didn't want to become a mage. He just wanted to live his own life leisurely, so he ran away from home!"
"What!" Alleria was shocked, "Doesn't he know that Quel'Thalas is under attack now? It's very dangerous outside."
"My parents also rushed to Silvermoon City to discuss with the elders after seeing the fire." Vereesa continued, looking at her sister who had reunited after a long absence: "Alleria, where have you been? What else happened?
There's fire everywhere! There are some rangers, and they haven't come back to report the situation."
After hearing the news, Alleria felt very bad. If the rangers started to disappear, it meant that the trolls had penetrated into the forest. "It's hard to explain in words." She replied, and glanced around, and immediately raised her hand.
She raised her sword and turned her back to her sister. "Now, be quiet."
"Quiet? Why..." Vereesa's words were interrupted by a tall man jumping down from the tree. It rushed over, holding a short-handled battle ax in its hand, but Alleria had already
She noticed him, so she was now ready to attack. She raised her sword to block the sneak attack, quickly retreated, avoiding the curved dagger in the opponent's other hand, then waved the sword in her hand and chopped
Hitting the opponent's head. The troll's body fell forward.
"Quick!" Alleria warned, pulling Vereesa who had not yet reacted and ran towards the river bank. "Get out of here!"
Vereesa was shocked by the sudden bloodshed. She was very young, the youngest of the three sisters, and had not experienced a real battle.
They walked quickly through the woods, and Alleria heard the laughter coming from above her. Troll! There were more than one. These guys had arrived not far outside Silvermoon City and were chasing after them. Oh
Lelia couldn't get rid of the screaming sound that followed her.
Finally Alleria saw the ribbon with twinkling stars under the moonlight. It was a river! She sped up and sprinted, and Vereesa also sped up to catch up. They ran out of the woods and came to the river.
open area.
"You can't succeed, pale man." A troll saw the river and roared behind the two female elves. "Catch them!"
A certain guy among them took the lead and swung out through the soft branches. He reached out and tried to grab the hair on the back of Alleria's head, but the female elf nimbly dodged it. When he was about to take action for the second time, he was stabbed by a sharp arrow.
Pierced his neck.
The same arrow struck the other trolls, killing them before they tried to escape back to the woods. Alleria turned to face the river, and with a brief glance she spotted a group of rangers on the other side. One of them
Wearing a light blue cloak and a
Others wore more gorgeous tunics. Her long golden hair was slightly lighter than Alleria's, and her jewel-like eyes had a similar appearance to Alleria. The other rangers were still standing next to this person, and she smiled.
He stood up and raised the bow in his hand to say hello.
"Welcome home, Alleria!" Sylvanas shouted. "You seem to have brought some trouble."
Alleria smiled and looked at his sister, who was still so energetic. "I didn't bring this." She replied. "I really hope to drive them out." She looked back at the dead people behind her.
The troll looked at Vereesa again, who was standing there with a pale face, turning her face away and trying not to notice the corpses. "I have to talk to the old guys in the council."
"They won't listen to you," Sylvanas warned. "They are focusing on this fire now."
Alleria glanced at the troll on the ground again. "If we tell them the cause of the fire, the result may be completely different."
"You are really mean, sister. I thought you came home because you miss your family."
"This is also the reason, Shiva." Alleria smiled, and then remembered something. "By the way, I met Nathanos in the forest. He also came here and saved my life.
"
Sylvanas was surprised after hearing this: "What? Where is he? Not with you."
Alleria shook her head, "The situation is urgent, and he should have something to do."
"Well, I'll go find him. Now follow me, I'd love to know how you plan to get our king to compromise."
In the Tower of Windrunner, the trolls suddenly launched an attack at the place where the elves were sleeping, catching the guards here by surprise. Zujin and his warriors went on a killing spree, and any captured elves could not escape death. The trolls did not like to be in the forest.
Fire was seen, but that would be different if the fire was placed on an elven building. Zuljin ordered the place to be burned.
"Still haven't found any members of the Windrunner family?" Zujin watched the trolls he was sent to search come back frustrated one after another. Their expressions said it all.
"Damn guy." Zujin yelled. In his heart, killing hundreds of elves was not as valuable as a Windrunner's head. "What's wrong?" When Zujin was angry, a troll ran towards him. He recognized
Beyond him were the scouts he placed at the rear.
"The tribe..." the scout gasped: "The tribe's troops are beginning to retreat!"
"What!" Zujin grabbed the scout's neck, "Say it again!"
"The tribe...is...retreating...backward!"
As soon as the words fell, there was a click, the scout's neck was strangled, and Zujin threw him into the burning house. The surrounding trolls were in mourning, and no one dared to go up and ask Zujin what to do next.
"Retreat!" the leader of the forest trolls shouted in an extremely angry and unwilling voice. "Retreat immediately, leave...!" His expression suddenly solidified, and his anger was completely taken over by surprise. For a moment, he could not hear the people around him.
He heard the sound and saw only the same kind of people with the same expression in front of him. An arrow accurately hit his chest from behind. He looked down at the arrow that pierced his body. He fell down in disbelief.
"There are enemies!"
"careful!"
"Protect Zujin."
The surrounding trolls panicked, and some of them calmed down and looked in the direction from which the arrows flew. The assassin hid on the branches and made a sneak attack, but the opponent had already left, and the branches hiding him were still shaking.
"There!"
"Hurry up and chase!"
The moment the bow and arrow left his hand, Nathanos turned around and embarked on the prepared escape path. When he arrived at the Tower of Windrunner, it was already too late, and the fire here illuminated the surrounding situation. He could see from
Zujin was found among the trolls. This one is the most unique and the highest.
Nathanos aimed at the big warrior wrapped in a strange purple scarf for five minutes, taking advantage of Zulkin's defenseless moment to give him a fatal blow. He was very sure that arrow was enough to kill the leader of the trolls.
world. Now it's time for him to escape from the trolls.
Zujin was lying on the ground limply. When his men turned him over, they found that his wounds were spreading into black lines on the surrounding skin.
"The wound is poisonous!" shouted the troll priest who came to Zujin and prepared to rescue him. At the same time, strange words like a spell came out of his mouth in the next second. Zujin gradually felt that his consciousness was getting weaker and weaker on the edge of the cliff of death.
It became more and more blurry. The priest next to him couldn't stop death from taking him away. He had no fear and sadness now, only anger and unwillingness. He hadn't completed his revenge yet, and he couldn't die yet! Zujin clenched his fist with his last strength,
His whole body tensed up, and he muttered a name. Only he could hear his voice.
Chapter completed!
