Volume 5: King of the Mountain Chapter 257: The country is really going to be destroyed
Murphy was not at all surprised by the deceitful nature of the royal nobles in Alterac . What surprised him was the fighting power of the Frostwolf orcs.
Aidan (Prince of Alterac): "Is Durotan so powerful? He doesn't have many achievements in history."
Victor explained: "Although Durotan is very powerful, he is actually a commander-type hero. He mainly commanded the Frostwolf Cavalry that day and did not personally participate in the battle. The one who actually killed our three brothers was Saurfang."
“High Overlord Saurfang?”
"No, it was King Saurfang's brother, Broxigar Saurfang. I don't know how he was sent by Orgrim to the Frostwolf Clan as a guest general. He attacked fiercely. At that time, the sixth and eighth brothers thought they could have a fight, so they attacked together, but they were chopped off their horses as soon as they met..."
Oh my god, it’s this guy!
Murphy knew something about this man, Broxigar Saurfang, the elder brother of King Saurfang and the most legendary orc hero of the Horde. He experienced three major wars in the history of the orcs. The Saurfang family has three heroes, each of them is a tough guy, but this elder brother should be considered the toughest one.
In fact, Broxigar has never appeared in the game, but he has a big role in the official novel War of the Ancients trilogy. His greatest achievement is that he injured Sargeras' thigh with an axe.
Speaking of which, this matter also involves time travel. After the establishment of the new tribe, the red dragon Krasus, the human mage Rhonin, and Broxigar Saurfang traveled together to the War of the Ancients ten thousand years ago, and happened to catch up with Sargeras' invasion of Azeroth.
In the last war, he killed countless demons in the Well of Eternity with the Oaken Axe given by Cenarius. Finally, he fought against Sargeras as a mortal. Although he was killed instantly, he left wounds on Sargeras' body. Considering his height, it is very likely that the axe hit Sargeras's foot.
Successfully delayed the Burning Legion's advance into Azeroth.
So some old players even thought that Broxigar Saurfang was the strongest orc in the history of the tribe.
Of course, this kind of thing is a matter of personal opinion.
Aidan (Prince of Alterac): "What rank of hero is Broxigar?"
"Epic Tier 2, Durotan is also epic Tier 2, and there's also Drek'Thar, epic Tier 1. These three guys are the most powerful, and the others are easy to deal with."
Murphy thought that was enough, this was the gap, even if King Aiden went to the battlefield, with his gold-level strength he would be defeated, and those nobles would be even more hopeless.
The appearance of Broxhija is by no means accidental. Murphy strongly suspects that this is an influence imposed by the system to ensure the development of the plot.
He now suddenly understood why the prince of Alterac was only worth 500,000. It was not only a matter of national strength. The biggest reason was that in history, Alterac was the first country to be destroyed in the Alliance camp, and it was destroyed quite thoroughly and never rose again.
Unlike other countries, which can still restore their country after all the turmoil.
The royal bloodline of Alterac has been cut off, and its territory has been directly annexed by Lordaeron, leaving nothing behind. According to the system's usual nature, the plot will be guided to develop along the original historical plot line.
Maybe this is the biggest reason why Prince of Alterac is cheap.
Thinking of this, a sense of crisis suddenly emerged.
It seems that he has to fight with the system this time, but he is not particularly worried. After all, the system will only guide and will not forcibly interfere with the plot. Didn't the Emperor Shenwu successfully ascend to the throne?
But it is definitely not possible to rely on myself alone, I still need the cooperation of these brothers to succeed.
Thinking of this, Murphy sighed, "Brothers, good brothers, I must say that this time we are probably facing the biggest crisis. If we can't make it through, once Alterac is destroyed, our title of prince will be gone."
The princes were somewhat unbelievable.
William (Prince of Alterac): "Not really. Didn't you say before that we had three wins and the Horde had three losses?"
Aidan (Prince of Alterac): "I was just fooling those NPCs. In fact, in my opinion, we are the ones who lost three times, and the Horde is the one who won three times.
You see, the Frostwolf Clan left their homes and came here to occupy the land and make a living. You can see this from the surrounding environment. There are enemy countries everywhere around them, and only Alterac Valley is the most suitable place for them to live. If they are defeated, they will have nowhere to escape. It can be said that they are fighting a desperate battle, and this is a victory.
On the other hand, the nobles of Alterac had their own plans, and they all wanted to preserve their strength. After all, if they were defeated, their country would not be destroyed. Even if their country was destroyed, they could flee back to their own castles to defend them. Even if their castles were gone, they could flee to foreign countries to become rich. So naturally, they would not fight so desperately. This was a defeat.
The orcs were united, the government orders were smooth, Durotan made the final decision, and there were no problems with command at all. This was the second victory.
On our side in Alterac, old useless Aiden lacks reputation, the nobles have their own ulterior motives, and to be honest, we princes are not very united . If a fight really comes, we will be a group of scattered sand again. This will be our second defeat.
But the most important thing is that in history, the Frostwolves successfully survived in Alterac Valley, but the Kingdom of Alterac was actually destroyed.
I don't know if you have noticed, but from my personal feeling, the system of this game seems to always guide the game plot in the direction of the original historical direction.
In other words, destiny is no longer in our hands.
If this feeling is true, then it means that the Frostwolf Clan's occupation of Alterac Valley is blessed by destiny. This is the third victory.
The fall of Alterac itself had no destiny and was destined to become a short-lived kingdom. This was its third defeat.
With these three wins and three losses, if we don’t work together, it will be hard for us to avoid failure.”
The princes were all stunned and looked solemn, thinking that this is completely different from what you said before, why are you allowed to say both good and bad things?
But you know what, after Murphy's analysis, the originally good situation seemed to have suddenly fallen into a desperate situation and was on the verge of national destruction.
Falling Leaves in the Wind (Prince of Alterac): "What Brother Aidan said makes sense, and there is more to it. According to the adventurer's report, the Frostwolf orcs may have formed an alliance with the ice elemental lord Lokholla. When the elemental lord helps us in the battle, our chances of winning will be reduced."
Ice Elemental Lord Lokhola? Murphy immediately remembered that among the three most difficult kingdom missions in Alterac, there was a mission to expel the Ice Elemental Lord. He didn't expect that no one had completed this mission after he had been away for so long.
What shamans are best at is communicating with all spirits, and elements are the most common among them. The Fire Lord of Blackrock Mountain has now formed an alliance with the tribal army in the south, and they didn't expect that the Frostwolf has also hooked up with one . This time they have found a strong ally.
This kind of lord-level elemental creature must not be too powerful on the battlefield.
The strength of ordinary soldiers is certainly important, but extraordinary creatures like this can undoubtedly change the balance of war.
Fortunately, I am about to perform the dragon feasting ceremony, and I am also a supernatural creature.
But I can’t say this out loud. Let’s complete the Dragon Feast Ceremony after the meeting, otherwise it will be really dangerous.
