Volume 3: Tides of Darkness Chapter 204: The men of the tribe must stand up!
Varian introduced them to everyone one by one. Murphy had never seen three of them, but the remaining two made Murphy speechless. They were actually acquaintances - oh my god, it turned out to be these two.
"This is the Dawnblade - the son of the Dawnblade, and this is the Dark Lord - the son of the Midnight Lord. Their fathers have died heroically in battle, but they have inherited their fathers' courage and glory, and now they are fighting for the Alliance again."
The Sword of Dawn and the Dark Night Magician excitedly greeted the heroes in the hall. When they saw Murphy, they immediately showed surprised expressions.
Dawn Sword (Dragonblood Knight): "Hey, it's you."
Dark Night Magician (Great Elementalist): "Damn, it's you!"
"Do you know my elder brother?" Varian asked in surprise.
"Your elder brother?" The Sword of Dawn and the God of Darkness both looked confused.
Aidan (Prince of Alterac): "Haha, of course I know you. We've been on the battlefield together and fought together in the past." Murphy said enthusiastically, putting his arms around their shoulders.
"You said so, right? Sword of Dawn, God of Dark Night?"
The two looked at each other and nodded helplessly: "Yes, yes, we have fought together before."
Oh, Varian suddenly became interested, "You have worked together before? I wonder what kind of enemy you faced."
"A damn black dragon." The Dark Night God said gritting his teeth.
"Yes, a black dragon. Prince Aidan is a rare warrior. That battle really opened my eyes." Sword of Dawn said to smooth things over.
Varian had no doubts. "Since we all know each other, it will be easier for us to cooperate. This time we are going to deal with a powerful orc chieftain, Grom Hellscream. It is said that he is one of the most powerful warriors in the tribe and the leader of the Warsong clan. If we can kill him, we will surely let the tribe realize that Stormwind Kingdom will never be defeated so easily."
When they heard that they were going to fight Hellscream, several player heroes invited by Varian immediately showed excitement.
This is definitely a good opportunity to gain plot points.
I have already done a lot of hard work in the Dark Portal campaign before. If I can see Hellscream in person this time, I might have a chance to advance directly to an epic hero, and maybe even get a legendary feat.
"Okay, time is running out, let's go."
At Varian's command, the army gathered around Braveshield Fort immediately set out and marched towards Dagger Ridge in a mighty manner.
In addition to this group of powerful heroes, there are several noble lords and more than a dozen militia captains in this army, who are responsible for leading the militia groups and noble private soldiers from various towns. Although the hero players are powerful, they are usually not good at leading troops in battle. Of course, the prince is better, after all, he has the ability to command. This is the advantage of having the identity of a prince. He can not only go into battle to kill the enemy, but also lead troops to fight.
However, it is still far behind that of a real lord leading troops.
the next day--
The Wild West Frontier...
"Ah, this must be the Western Wilderness, what a wonderful place it is. This place reminds me of Nagrand..."
Looking at the green wilderness in front of him, Grom Hellscream's voice revealed a rare trace of longing and peace. He thought of his hometown Nagrand, the green grassland, his mother and wife, and the son he left there.
No one knows what the land is like now, whether it has been corrupted by evil, and whether those families are safe.
This emotion gave him a rare sense of calmness, but it was soon overwhelmed by the murderousness and rage that emerged from the depths of his heart.
Grom Hellscream (Warsong Chieftain): "Hahaha, let's burn this land to the ground, kill all the humans here, crush all the enemies who dare to resist, let the reputation of the tribe spread throughout the world, and let my name Hellscream bring fear!"
Garthel Zog (Blackrock Warlord): "Grom, what are our plans next?"
The one who spoke was his deputy, an orc warlord from the Blackrock Clan. He was also a powerful warrior. The twelve thousand Dark Wolf Cavalry were under his command.
Grom Hellscream (Warsong Chieftain): "Of course we'll kill our way north, crushing any enemy that dares to stand in our way. Burn any farms we see, kill any humans we see. If we run into a main force of the enemy, hmm, we'll just crush them all together. Those humans are so cowardly, it won't take long to kill them all."
Gasser Zog (Blackrock Warlord): "But Hellscream, the Warchief asked us to fight as quickly as possible and avoid fighting the enemy's main force."
Before leading the troops to set off, Orgrim repeatedly reminded them that the goal of this battle was to destroy humanity's food production areas and eliminate the human population, and that action must be swift to avoid accidents.
After Gaselzog's reminder, Hellscream also remembered.
Grom was instinctively resistant to following orders; he just wanted to kill, kill, and kill, using the blood of his enemies to quench his inner desire.
At this moment someone suddenly interrupted.
Ba Dao Wu Qing (Ba Dao Chief): "Gaser, you know nothing. Hellscream is the boss of this army. Boss Hellscream, I will listen to you anyway. We will do whatever you say. The men of our tribe must stand up, don't you agree?"
Grom Hellscream was immediately delighted when he heard this. This newcomer was right. "You are right. The warriors of our tribe are fearless. How can those cowardly humans resist our army? There is no need to conceal or hide. I have decided to capture the nearby human cities first and kill them mercilessly. Then we will disperse and attack. Don't worry, it won't take much time."
After saying this, he waved his hand, and the army marched towards the heart of the western wilderness.
After walking for several hours and razing several villages and farms, the scouts ahead suddenly brought news - a large human army had appeared in the southwest, with a large number of human knights.
Gasser immediately suggested to ignore it since the enemy was no longer on their route, but Badao Wuqing immediately started to add fuel to the fire.
Ba Dao Wu Qing (Ba Dao Chief): "Damn, Gasser, you are too cowardly. When have the warriors of our tribe ever been afraid? Just do it, and you are talking to Brother Hellscream."
Grom Hellscream (Warsong Chieftain): "That's right. Eliminating these humans will also make our next move easier. Follow me!"
The army marched across the plains and wheat fields, heading towards the southwest. In the distance, a human cavalry had indeed gathered, with nearly 5,000 people, forming a neat team in the wilderness. In the front row of the team were a large number of Storm Knights, whose full metal armor gleamed in the sun, and were extremely dazzling at first glance.
Grom immediately became interested. These powerful Storm Knights had left a deep impression on him in the Second Battle of Black Gate. Unfortunately, the intrusion of the black dragons had prevented him from having a chance to kill them all. Now he finally had the chance.
These five thousand cavalrymen included three thousand Storm Knights under Varian, two thousand knights and squires from various nobles, and even the one hundred Borean Knights and Snow Mountain Rangers brought by Murphy and his men. Varian took the lead and rushed out of the ranks.
Varian (Prince of Stormwind): "Dirty orcs, why are you here? This is the territory of Stormwind Kingdom, get out immediately, otherwise you will die."
Grom Hellscream (Warsong Chieftain): "Weak human, our warchief has already anticipated your deployment. Wait a minute - are you Varian, the man who killed Blackhand? Hehehe, it seems that I am lucky today. Come on, kid, face Hellscream if you have the guts."
After saying this, he waved his hand and let out a bloody roar, and the wolf cavalry army immediately swarmed out.
