Grand Arcanist of Azeroth

Chapter 71 Bloodbath on the Upper Level of Grim Batol
The warship headed south along the east coast of the mainland, maintaining the highest speed throughout the journey, without worrying about whether it would collide with the ship.

This is because there is no civilization that can trade on the east coast of the entire continent, and naturally no merchant ships will go here.

The warship, which was advancing at high speed, sailed at sea for two days, and came to a strait that traversed the east and west.

This strait separates the subcontinent of Lordaeron from the main continent.

The plateau where Grim Batol is located is just south of this strait.

Captain Hank continued to go south, sailing along the east coast of the plateau, and finally arrived at the mouth of a big river.

He turned into the big river without hesitation, and went deep into the interior of the plateau from east to west.

Captain Hank had explored the plateau many times before the orcs invaded.

He knew all about the coast and the great rivers.

It's just that the Wildhammer dwarves were too low-key back then, and the main city didn't have a very eye-catching landmark building.

Captain Hank never found Grim Batol's location.

Until the Griffin Knight inspected his abandoned main city and found that it had been illegally embezzled by orcs.

This well-hidden dungeon was finally no longer hidden by the Wildhammer dwarves, and soon appeared on Captain Hank's map.

The location of Grim Batol is not actually on the plateau, but at the junction of the plateau and the wetland.

Therefore, no matter in the wetland or on the plateau, it is difficult to find its specific location.

Knowing the exact location of Grim Batol, it will be easier now.

The warship traveled upstream along the great river and came to the place where the plateau was closest to the wetland, and then everyone went on foot to Grim Batol.

Grim Batol is very large, divided into upper and lower layers, and the lower layer is directly connected to the underground magma.

So this dungeon is much bigger than Ironforge.

It was the mountain range that the Wildhammer dwarves had chosen to make the dungeon so large, and there was already a huge gap inside.

They simply repaired the gaps inside the mountains, dug cave houses on the cave walls, and turned it into a huge and magnificent main city.

However, this gift from nature was destroyed by the invading Dark Iron Dwarves.

Queen Modgood of the Dark Iron Clan is a powerful dark wizard.

Before her death, she cast a vile curse of shadows, successfully polluting the city.

The forces of shadow permeate the city, darkening the already dimly lit interior.

A subtle atmosphere of fear enveloped the city, keeping the residents awake at night.

Even the crops planted on the surface withered overnight.

In the end, most of the Wildhammer dwarves chose to go north to the mainland of Lordaeron to find a new home.

Some stubborn Wildhammer dwarves also chose to stay away from this cursed city and settle in the depths of the plateau.

When Herald brought the thieves to the vicinity of Grim Batol, the sky was already dark.

Everyone rested in a hidden corner, and set off again when night fell.

High elves, like night elves, have night vision.

However, this racial talent has degraded a lot, and it doesn't seem very clear.

But Herald came prepared this time.

Everyone put on engineering glasses one after another, and adjusted the mode to night vision mode.

A dwarf who is good at non-combat inventions, the engineering glasses developed are very useful.

The low-light imaging effect of the night vision mode is very good!

With the weakened version of the night vision talent of the high elves, the night can no longer trouble everyone.

At the gate of Grim Batol, there is a group of Dragonmaw orcs standing guard.

The thieves sneaked past silently and strangled their necks with wire ropes.

Their strike angles were very tricky, no matter how the Dragonmaw orcs struggled, it would be useless.

In the end, these unlucky Dragonmaw orcs died struggling in deep fear.

Out of the professional habits of thieves, they also arranged the corpses in a decent manner, which looked like they were lazily sleeping from a distance.

Seeing these unnecessary movements of the thieves, Herald shook his head speechlessly.

He called the people together and pointed out where they were wrong.

"We're not here for a covert operation this time. Your goal is simple, quietly kill all the orcs you can fight."

The thieves looked left and right, and suddenly understood.

We have so many people, we can assassinate each area one by one and it will be over.

They were divided into dozens of assassination teams, and they cooperated closely along the way to wipe the necks of the Dragonmaw orcs scattered throughout the area.

The upper level of the dungeon is composed of huge caves.

An assassination group composed of a hundred thieves can quickly eliminate all Dragonmaw orcs in the cave.

Since there are torches in the dungeon for lighting, the light is not particularly dim, and it is too easy for the thieves to pick the lock!
Pry open the door to enter the room, and quickly approach the target to perform the assassination.

The Dragontooth dagger that was pre-drawn in advance cut into the neck of the Dragonmaw orc like cutting tofu.

These dragon riders who could control the red dragon to dominate the sky died silently in their sleep.

As they die, the great cave grows quieter.

Although the deathly silence was abrupt, the Dragonmaw orcs in the adjacent caverns were hard to spot.

Everyone is sleeping at night, who cares about the movement outside?

With the death of a large number of Dragonmaw orcs, the smell of blood in the cave has become more and more intense.

However, the Wildhammer dwarves' cities are quite closed.

The smell of blood will only gather in the current cave and will not spread to other caves.

This is to consider the defensive factors when building, and the connecting passages between the caves are not large.

Built like this, it can be guaranteed that it will not be broken through by the enemy.

So as long as the action is agile enough, the smell of blood is not a problem.

Herald and Aurelia walked slowly along the street, nearby were blurred figures entering and exiting the gate of the building, orderly removing the Dragonmaw orcs living inside.

Occasionally, Dragonmaw orcs would come out to check on the situation.

Before it could see what was happening outside, Alleria quickly pulled the bowstring and put on the arrow.

The arrow that was blessed with the power of the wind element penetrated into its chest silently, and the power of the wind element wantonly destroyed it in the body, instantly taking its life away.

The role of high-end magic bows can never be replaced by hot weapons!

Every time he saw Aurelia's bow and arrows, Herald felt pleasing to the eye with her perfect figure combining beauty and valor.

Of course, the premise is that Alleria doesn't keep getting rough on him.

A ranger who can draw a heavy bow of [-] kilograms is too easy to lift people up!

Herald couldn't understand at all, why these rangers looked so slender, but their strength was so abnormal!

Just as he was thinking about this problem, a Dragonmaw orc opened the window to call for help. The male thief who caught up with him strangled it with his arms, and then wrung it tightly so that it could not make a sound.

The male thief strangled the strong orc with his bare hands, no matter how hard it struggled, it was useless, and he didn't let go until he was strangled to death.

Although the physique of the Dragonmaw orc is indeed relatively weak.

But that is compared to the orcs of other clans.

Killing a cow with one punch is the most basic strength index of an orc.

He could strangle orcs to death with his bare hands, and Herald felt that this guy was suitable for the warrior profession.

But bitter fighters have no future.

Wearing the thickest armor and being beaten the most viciously, the end is really miserable!

Thieves still have a better future in their current profession if they practice hard.

Under the suppression of these powerful thieves, there was no one alive in the upper area soon.

Next is the more troublesome lower area.

The lower area is very empty, and the red dragon is also cultivated there.

Although the thieves are very powerful, the assassination work may not be carried out smoothly.
