Azeroth Trail of Light

Chapter 131 34. The Battle of Mount Hyjal——The Curtain Opens

"A large group of undead is found approaching in the northeast! The number is estimated to be around 30,000!"

"There is a demon riot in the southeast! It is approaching quickly!"

"Sky! There are hellfires in the sky! Be careful to dodge! Mage troops, blast me away those hellfires!"

Errigor was standing on the high platform in the center of the camp, sweating profusely. Under the command of him and several commanders, he was in a hurry. The paladins and soldiers with weapons in hand shuttled back and forth quickly in the camp. Just like the priests who have always been regarded as treasures, they also put on armor for the first time, stood outside the line of defense with the soldiers, and nervously treated the wounded soldiers.

Supreme Commander Dick held Gorecry in his hand, and was at the front of the camp, defending the outermost line of defense with Dalyan and Herod's team. On the dark ground in front of them, low-level demons and low-level undead surged like a tide. Coming up, Dick's double-blessed arms became sore. His current movements were weird and stiff, but they were the most effective way of killing.

Because of his physical strength, even with the support of bloody oak's vitality, he couldn't sustain such a high-intensity battle.

In fact, Dick and these paladins who took turns to rest had already persisted in front of the battle line for a full hour!

The general attack from the demon side caught people off guard. Just an hour after Dick reached an agreement with the warlocks, Dick, who was talking with Liadrin, felt his left hand start to feel hot. After giving the order, a dark green hellfire hit the top of Liadrin's house.

If it wasn't for Jaina's reaction speed to teleport the two of them out of the room at the same time, Dick and Liadrin would have been injured in the first wave of demon air strikes!

But even so, everyone still made a fuss, but the luckiest thing is that the demons launched a three-dimensional attack on the first human line of defense and at the same time as the orc line of defense halfway up the mountain, so they were shared among the first line of defense The pressure is reduced by half.

After Dick and the watchmen who reacted first solved the dozens of hellfires that fell in the line of defense, Eligor blew the dragon horn of the highest alert, and at the farthest point of everyone's sight, the overwhelming black The point has appeared!

The demons have gone mad!

These guys, together with their undead army, were led to rush to the first line of defense. With Dick's good eyesight, he even saw the demon guards running at the forefront of the real demon tide. After falling, he would be ruthlessly crushed in the legion behind him.

Although they are only the lowest level of demons and undead, just like when Dick faced the endless sea of ​​undead in the Eastern Continent, after the number of these ghosts reaches a limit, it is simply impossible for manpower to contend!

And the night elves, who have always seen the dragon and never see the end, did not lose their chains this time. Just before the sea of ​​demons poured into the first line of defense, several green tree portals opened in the center of the camp, and a total of 7 legions, A total of 3,000 Sentinels and Druids joined the first line of defense.

In this way, the 5,000 people in the joint defense line of the First Expeditionary Army barely made up 40,000 people. On the preset battlefield between the two mountains at the entrance of Mount Hyjal, the most elite paladins and The sentry sharpshooters, like a black reef, firmly blocked the front of the devil sea.

Behind the line of defense mixed with trees and stones, every inch became a battleground. The nimble ghouls tried to climb the wall, and were poured down by the holy water that had been prepared long ago. The paladins didn't even have time to retreat. , is about to draw out the long sword, facing the gliding approach, avoiding the fish that slipped through the sky blocked by the sentinels with arrows.

The gargoyle and mephit army, before the Hippogryph and the few dwarf air knights took off, just a wave of impact caused the death of hundreds of soldiers, and the corpses of those knights were as cruel as hell. The battlefield shocked everyone!

Especially those elves who have lived in Mount Hyjal all year round. In the peaceful years of thousands of years, have they ever experienced such a scene?

On the other hand, the First Expeditionary Army has basically fought against millions of undead in the Eastern Continent. The situation in front of them is nothing more than replacing the undead with demons. The visual impact alone can no longer make them feel scared.

The demons all over the mountains and plains are enough to scare any unsteady warrior to the ground. If it weren't for the preset battlefield of the first line of defense, which can only allow hundreds of demons to pass through at a time, just a wave of shock from this sea of ​​demons would be enough to flatten the first line of defense up!

Facing such a chaotic battlefield, Dick was only fortunate that the demons didn't seem to have enough mid-level and lower-level commanders. As a result, these guys just rushed into the battlefield with the most primitive pig rush, and then were killed by the coordinated paladins. Those demons with long-range attack capabilities, and those followers of spellcasters mixed among the demons, in this kind of chaos, there is no way to talk about collective cooperation.

Dick's heart was only put in his stomach when the devastating magic attack could not be assembled.

He swung his battle axe, injected holy energy into it, stepped forward, slashed, and three demon guards with green bodies were cut down. Dick didn't even need to make up the knife. The demons who stepped up from behind were enough to help him finish the rest something happened.

When he raised and lowered the knife too many times, Dick's attention was even pulled out of the life-and-death slashing in front of him. He continued to attack mechanically, and began to think about why the demons chose this place. Time to attack?

Could it be that Archimonde really chose a time at random?

No! It will not be like this!

The dark titan Sargeras' right-hand man, Archimonde the Defiler, is good at force, but he is definitely not a fool who can't use his brain. It must have its reason for choosing to attack at this time!

Moreover, the actions of these demons and undead always made Dick feel a little weird!

Although the Burning Legion has countless sources of soldiers, they will never squander these soldiers. Whether it is the Battle of the Ancients or the third invasion of demons in Dick's memory, all demons, except for the irrepressible destructive nature in their bones In addition, they all absolutely obey those demon commanders. When did this kind of chaotic pig sudden scene appear?

Dick still remembered that in the game, when he entered the timeline of the War of the Ancients from the Caverns of Time, those demon guards who were sent in a file, that young Illidan would also find it "very troublesome" A legion!

Is it really just a lack of commanders? Or…

Dick turned his head and turned his gaze to Mount Hyjal in the distance behind. In the deepest valley of the holy mountain, the giant tree reaching the sky towered under the sky like a pillar of the sky. Now there should be a demigod battle going on there. The resurrection ceremony, thinking of this, Dick's eyes suddenly changed!

He remembered one thing he had been ignoring before!

Even in the original history, at the end of the Battle of Mount Hyjal, the players assisted Jaina and Thrall to repel the attacks of four demons, and after killing the four leaders of the Burning Legion, they entered the final and deepest place. When the night elves were in the camp, they were shocked to find that the great demon Archimonde stood beside the World Tree in an incomprehensible way.

Before Dick crossed, there were still players struggling with this point. How did Archimonde break through the three lines of defense and enter the World Tree?

Was it really broken through by brute force?

No! Absolutely not!

Judging from the current scene, Archimonde...that great demon must have infiltrated the third line of defense in a way that ordinary people can't understand!

This explains why, in the game, the great demon will approach the World Tree earlier than the player!

But before Dick found Sentinel Commander Barnes, the sound of boulders breaking woke Dick from his contemplation. He looked back and saw that the stone wall on the left edge of the defense line had been gathered by more than a dozen heads. Let the hatred work together to defeat it! The dense ghouls and demon guards are making the breach even bigger.

The worst thing was that the place where the breach was made happened to be close to the priest's camp. Once the demons rushed into the priest's camp, the wounded and priests there would have no chance of surviving!

"Herod!"

Dick slashed out a brilliant blade of light with his axe, forcing the demon in front of him back, then turned around and shouted at Herold, the most powerful "warrior" of the First Expeditionary Army.

With his upper body naked, wielding a bloody tomahawk, the strong man who was slashing wildly and screaming strangely turned his head and wiped the green blood on his body, and responded loudly,

"Head, what's the matter?"

"Throw me over there!"

"What?"

"I said... go away, demon! I said, throw me over there! Only your arms can throw me that far!"

Dick quickly ran to Herold's position. Hercules glanced back at the battle situation on the left, shrunk his eyes, and dropped the ax in his hand without saying a word. Dalyan immediately stepped forward to take his place, holding The Blade of Wrath also howled wildly, each blow could make the air howl, it could be seen that Dalyan and his "grandfather" also enjoyed this battle very much.

Dick rushed to Herold, and the tacit understanding of martial arts together often made the Hercules grab Dick's iron belt with both hands the moment Dick passed through him, and the muscles on his arms swelled, His eyes widened, and he roared,

"Ahhh! Give me...go over!"

"Whoosh!"

Herold's body turned twice on the spot. His own strength, coupled with the kinetic energy of Dick's body, made Dick fly obliquely like a boulder being thrown, smashing towards those who kept pouring out of the depression. group of demons.

The golden light exploded completely at this moment, and the wings like battle angels appeared behind Dick, completely turning into a golden tomahawk across the air. In short, like sparks hitting the earth, at the moment Dick touched the ground , Flying sand and rolling stones, it really looks like a stone hitting the ground!

The two closest abominations were knocked out when they touched the sacred barrier on Dick's body, and before they hit the ground, the huge and broken body was melted into ashes by the holy light!

The power of the dragon! The power of the lord! Bloody Oak! Holy Avenger!

All the buffs that can be activated are fully blessed on Dick at this moment, making his combat power soar to the limit at this moment.

"boom!"

At this moment, the entire camp lost its voice!

When Dick's winged body stood up from the impact-shaped depression, all the warriors, including those unsmiling elves, couldn't help cheering!

"Jianna! Seal this place for me!"

Dick rushed into the broken depression, and shouted without looking back, the eldest lady who was commanding the mage troops to sway destructive magic towards the demon group appeared beside Dick without hesitation, In such a highly oppressive situation, the eldest lady felt that her understanding of spells had raised another level in such a killing.

But now is not the time to think about that. While Dick was blocking those demons for her, the eldest lady summoned up all her mana and tapped the primordial stream in her hand on the ground. The flow was activated, and more than a dozen water elemental gemstones floating outside the young lady's body burst open. Under the command of the pale young lady, they turned into a roaring frost dragon and bumped into the broken depression.

After the first wave of white ice exploded, two-thirds of the left wing of the entire defense line was completely covered by blue ice, and the deadly ice crystals formed sharp ice knives on the surface, forming the outer shell of the hedgehog suit. Together with those demons who were frozen in the ice, as well as those opponents who dared to approach this depression, they pierced through together and rose into the air together.

Horrible and exquisite ice sculpture, green blood dyed it the color of death, can you imagine the scene of hundreds of demon corpses hanging on the surface of the ice pillar like a flagpole?

The moment Dick's bravery silenced the camp, a wave of outbursts by the unobtrusive young lady also plunged the entire camp into silence again.

"Can you hold on?"

Dick panted and looked back at the eldest lady. The latter seemed to be shocked by the shocking effect of her magic. It was not until the warm right hand of the paladin brushed her cheek that the eldest lady realized that she pursed her lips. Pursing his lips, under Dick's concerned gaze, he nodded firmly,

"Before my magic power runs out, they won't break through here!"

Just as Dick was about to speak, a green flame suddenly appeared below his field of view. The two of them looked back. In their field of vision, the world tree that lifted the sky...was ignited, and half of the sky in the distance seemed to be plunged into into the green fireworks.

It's just like the end of the world!

"Go to Lord Delia Sera! Also, bring me those four warlocks!"

In the next second, Dick casually grabbed a shocked paladin and shouted, and then a black figure suddenly appeared beside Dick. It was Sentinel Commander Barnes, the cold night elf assassin, where? There was still a trace of grace to speak of, he hurriedly grabbed Dick's arm and screamed,

"Quick... Hurry up and support the third line of defense, demon! The big demon tricked the defenders and appeared under the world tree!"

"boom!"

Gritting his teeth, Dick knocked down the sentinel commander with a fist, grabbed his collar with his rough hands, brought Barnes up in front of his eyes, and roared,

"Look at what you idiots have done! I'm in command here! If you want to save your tree, you'd better listen to me! Go, call me all the guys who can still move, all the guys above the lord rank come over!"

The paladin let go of the collar of the sentinel commander, blood stains had been bitten on his lips, but he didn't realize it. He looked at the front of the first line of defense, at the deepest part of the dark tide.

"It's the only chance of life there, ah, it's time to work hard again!"
