Menethil's Power

Chapter 418 The first step in building a fortress

On a mountain peak at the border of Terokkar Forest, Isaacs watched the scene in Shadowmoon Valley. Unlike the still green Terokkar Forest behind him, Shadowmoon Valley showed a lifeless state, and the sky There are scattered green rays of light in the center, and flowing fel magma is everywhere on the ground, and as far as the eye can see, a volcano is constantly spewing out flames and lava.

If there really is hell in this world, then it's nothing more than that.

But these scenes are still secondary. In Isaacs' vision, red is the most important hue, a long-lasting crimson like a tide.

Evil orcs, a large number of evil orcs, mixed with many demons.

A sigh sounded in Isaacs' ear, and Khadgar also stared at the almost endless camp, "They came for us. Our battle in Terokkar Forest obviously disturbed these beasts."

"The devil's commander is not an idiot," Danas said from the side, "Before they were unable to break through our defenses, but after knowing that we took the initiative to attack, they naturally tried to kill our main force, and then they were able to take advantage of the trend to attack Shattrath. .”

The leader of the Sons of Lothar has experienced many battles, and his vision is naturally not bad.

The wind blows, rustling the pine leaves above.

Isaacs didn't look like he was facing a big enemy, he turned his head to look at Khadgar, "Are these orcs remnants of the tribe after the Second War?"

"Yes." The mage nodded, "Most of them are the remnants of clans such as Broken Hand, Blood Ring, Laughing Skull, and Bone Eater. They were defeated by our expeditionary army and turned to the devil. The second pollution. So there is no need to distinguish them by clan, they are a group of indiscriminate bloodthirsty beasts."

"I see," Isaacs nodded. "It's not a bad thing for them to gather here. We always need to face these orcs. What we should consider now is how to defeat them at the least cost."

"We are at a disadvantage in terms of numbers." Adein said, this warrior of the holy light has put on a set of imposing holy light armor, which shows that he has more than one outfit. Generally, due to his ability, a paladin will He is more heroic and handsome than other plate armor professions, and Adeyin has brought this "professional characteristic" to the extreme.He participated in the battle as the military commander of Aldo. Although it is a priest organization, it has a lot of guard troops. The high-ranking priestess Isana sent many sharpshooters and thunder elephant cavalry to supplement The lack of configuration of expeditionary forces.

Although Adeyin had been deeply hurt by Elidie once before as a paladin, he did not change his heart of courtship. The virtues of firmness and loyalty made him not give up so easily. Knowing that Elidi joined Isaacs in the battle, the Warrior of the Holy Light volunteered to serve as the military leader of these Aldo supporters.

Seeing this slightly exaggerated paladin again, Elidie was undoubtedly rather depressed. The young priest has excellent looks and talent, so naturally she has sent a considerable number of suitors, many of whom are the ones who claim to be the "Guide of the Holy Light" "It was love at first sight for Elidie.But there is no good way to deal with Adein Elide. Firstly, the other party's status is not low, and secondly, he didn't do anything out of line—he just expressed his admiration, and as long as he saw the young priest, It will show that kind of affectionate eyes, and show your meticulous care.

As small as the daily diet, as big as the practice and even the future life plan, Yi Lidi has a meticulous "parent" in an instant, and the girl priest is about to explode. After a meal, under the extremely annoying situation, Elidie directly chose a shield, and the most suitable candidate was naturally Isaacs.

Isaacs didn't know what happened at first, but one day Elidie suddenly ran over to Adein and hugged his arm very affectionately in front of him, and then said something incomprehensible. The Holy Light Warrior's attitude towards him brought some hostility.It wasn't hard to figure out the joints, but Isaacs didn't bother to explain.

Apparently, Adein, who was a bit of a nerd, regarded Isaacs as a rival in love, and tried his best to prove that he was better than this human being. Of course, he was still self-aware, and he was not stupid enough to challenge Isaacs face to face, although he did not I don't know the opponent's strength, but I heard that this human being killed a bishop face to face with a sword before reaching Shattrath, and the bishop is at least the same level as him.

"There are too many evil orcs, and there is no advantage in confronting us head-on." Draenei Paladin first said a situation that everyone can see, "There are only a few people between Terokkar Forest and Shadowmoon Valley. The narrow hillsides are connected, if we lure the evil orcs to take the initiative to attack, we can use this terrain advantage to cause a lot of damage to them."

Without Isaacs responding, Danas shook his head, "We are the attacking side, unless we bluff, it is almost impossible to lure the opponent into this unfavorable terrain, and to face the orcs with a bluff...then It's very likely to turn into a real rout."

"For these mindless orcs, it's easy to provoke their anger." Of course Adein refused to accept it, but just as he was about to refute Danas' point of view, Isaacs said lightly, "The terrain here It's not particularly good, we're on the defensive there."

Following his gaze, Danas and Adein looked at a highland not far away. It was indeed a land that was easy to defend and difficult to attack. After occupying it, it would definitely bring huge benefits. Right behind the camp.

"Did the Holy Light only teach you how to speak big, human?" Adeyin subconsciously denied, "Do you know how to teleport spells in groups or have a large number of flying mounts, allowing us to reach that high ground directly?" He sneered asked.

"Let's just kill them, and I'll take the lead in the charge." Isaacs said lightly, completely ignoring Adein's cynicism. "Danas, you go and gather a group of the best soldiers. The number should not be too many, five or six hundred will do."

"You just made a decision so hastily?? Shouldn't you..." Adeyin showed an incredible expression.

Isaacs still ignored him. "Eliday!" he called.

The young priest immediately came over with light steps, "What's the matter, Brother Isaacs?" Her appearance interrupted what Adeyin was about to say.

"Go and notify the priests to assemble," Isaacs ordered.

"You want to lead a group of priests to charge?? You must be crazy!" Adeyin asked immediately, his eyes widened.In any war, the priests must be placed behind the array for protection, and Isaacs seems to be leading them to commit suicide collectively.

"If we don't send the priests there, what's the point of us occupying that highland?" Isaacs asked rhetorically.

"Some people are not capable enough themselves, and they are good at picking pricks." Elidie chimed in, and the young priest made a face at Adein. This little hoof was completely on Isaacs' side, "You can't protect those Priest, but that doesn't mean Brother Isaacs can't do it."

Adeyin was a little speechless, he couldn't catch his breath, and almost suffered internal injuries.

On the contrary, Danas had no objection to Isaacs' decision. After all, he already had a general impression of the young man's specific combat power. "Do you need to notify Kurdran for air support?" he asked.

After more than ten years of fighting, the number of Griffin Riders is not much. Some Wildhammer dwarves had to tame the void ray, a unique flying creature in Outland, as mounts because of the death of Griffin. It is elite.

"No, I don't need those precious air knights for the time being," Isaacs refused, "I'll leave it to you to command here, just block the approaching evil orcs, save your strength, and don't try to give me any support."

"clear."

"Isaacs!" Adeyin shouted suddenly, and the human prince who was acting as the commander-in-chief turned his gaze to him again, "Are you really confident that you can protect those priests?" Adeyin asked loudly.

Isaacs could feel the solemnity in the draenei's tone. After all, he was the commander of the Aldo side, and he must be responsible for those draenei priests. "Of course I am sure, you can rest assured." The human prince said.

"I hope so." Adeyin walked directly in front of Isaacs with a gloomy face, "I will also participate in this operation."

"Please." Isaacs shrugged.

"Me too!" Elidie also volunteered.

"What are you making fun of?" Isaacs suddenly wanted to rub Elidie's head, "This is a charge against tens of thousands of orcs before, aren't you afraid?"

"I believe Brother Isaacs, you will definitely protect me!" Elidie stopped her waist, showing her absolute trust in Isaacs, and the little tail behind her shook slightly.

Isaacs shook his head and let her go.

After everyone else made arrangements, Khadgar, who had been silently watching, said, "This is really an interesting operation. Its boldness and decisiveness can be said to be beyond imagination, which arouses my interest." He said There was a smile in Wisdom's eyes, and he looked very relaxed, "You refused other support, but I think I should be able to provide some help when facing a large number of enemies."

"That couldn't be better." Isaacs readily accepted. Khadgar's strength cannot be underestimated. As a genius mage who is proficient in the three departments, although he is not close to his former mentor Medivh more than ten years later. mana, but it is not much lower than the level of the Kirin Tor Council of Six.

This is an era of talented people.

Isaacs' order was quickly executed. In less than half an hour, the elite team he requested had been assembled, with more than 500 elite veterans, guarding more than 200 Aldo priests, and the gloomy-faced Holy Light Warrior Ade Because, and Elidie eager to try.

"Everyone gather around and form a defensive circle." Adein said, trying to issue an order to the veterans of the Son of Lothar, "Protect the priests around you. Their safety is the key to whether you can survive."

The draenei paladin had certain racist thoughts, so his tone was naturally a little blunt. Although his order was correct, the veterans didn't follow through until Isaacs nodded in agreement.

Adrian's complexion became even worse.

Obviously, it's time to go out. With hundreds of people, a small half of them are priests with little melee ability to attack the evil orc position with a hundred times the number of people. Even the most experienced Son of Lothar veterans feel the huge pressure. The palms holding the sword hilt were soaked with sweat.As for the aldo priests, they also showed bewildered expressions. If it weren't for their devout belief in the Holy Light, their emotions might have collapsed now.

No matter how you look at it, it looks like death.

But Isaacs suddenly made a stop gesture to them, "You wait here first." He said, then turned around and walked towards the direction of Shadowmoon Valley alone, the hand of order deformed, forming the simplest long sword According to the style, an orange gemstone is inlaid on the hilt of the sword, and another red gemstone appears on the back of his hand.

A heart of anger, a shining moment.

The sacred force field spread, forming a thin layer of shield on the surrounding soldiers and priests. This is the protective halo from the red gemstone. Because it is the most applicable, it will be turned on by default when there are no special circumstances. This aura can be applied to any type of ally.

His behavior was once again beyond everyone's expectations, but before Elidie could speak to stop him, Isaacs had already walked out of the dense forest of Terokkar and appeared in front of tens of thousands of evil orcs. His lonely figure looked a little thin , without any armor protection, but his expression was so relaxed that he seemed to be participating in a swordsmanship competition.

For such a sudden appearance of a human being, the evil orcs naturally would not think about the truth of the other party. The nearest group of orcs immediately attacked Isaacs. The orc warriors waved crude weapons and rushed towards him. More than a dozen sharp arrows attacked him. Although the orc archer was not very accurate, the arrows he shot were very powerful.

Isaacs lightly waved the silver long sword in his hand, and shot down the arrows aimed at him casually but with great precision. At this time, the orc's battle ax was almost in sight, but Isaacs still didn't attack or block. He just stomped his feet lightly.

A series of red-golden cracks spread from the soles of his feet to the surroundings, and the ground seemed to be cracked, but in fact these cracks were only manifestations of materialized holy energy, exuding astonishingly high temperature and energy fluctuations, blazing holy energy Flames burst out from these lines, burning all combustibles. The wooden handles of weapons, coarse cloth or animal skin clothing, and the lives of evil orcs all turned into fly ash in less than a second, and the surrounding air instantly became ashes. It was extremely hot.

The fire of dedication, an ability that elite paladins can master, but cast by Isaacs seems to be able to burn everything.

The human prince had no expression on his face, and began to walk forward at a consistent pace. The sacred lines on the ground moved along with his progress, drawing more evil orcs into the deadly flames. The lines formed did not show signs of dissipating, and it was obvious that they could continue to burn for a long time.

This is a path of flames in the true sense.
