Azeroth Trail of Light

Chapter 180 11. Dawn of Stormwind City (2)

It takes about 30 minutes to ride a horse from Gold Town to Stormwind City. Because it is close to the capital, the roads here are very well repaired and very flat. The roads in the quiet Elwynn Forest are paved with paved roads at this time of year. The dovetail flowers that are blooming and withering, when the clatter of horseshoes crossed the forest path, the beautiful flowers were lifted from the ground, and behind the horseshoes, a whistling wind fluttered to both sides.

Windsor was riding on a horse, his body was beating with the beating of the horse. The old marshal who had been a soldier for a long time had superb riding skills. He galloped all the way towards the white city in the distance. Behind him, Du Han and others Some veterans who heard the news followed behind the marshal, and when they barely reached Stormwind City, there were already more than a dozen soldiers in armor behind Windsor.

Most of them are the same age as Duhan, but there are also a few gray-haired old men. These are veterans who retired after the Orc War. Before Stormwind City became chaotic, these veterans would be given preferential treatment. Most of them are scattered in the towns around the royal capital as magistrates.

Stormwind City is very close to North County. That beautiful town has one of the three holy places of the Holy Light Church in the Eastern Continent, North County Abbey. There is also an army of 500 people stationed there. Windsor could have gone there to seek help. , but after getting that letter, the old marshal gave up the idea.

It's just a guess, but what if that horrible guess comes true?

North County Abbey, which is a direct institution of the Cathedral of Light, if the nightmare really comes true, going there is equivalent to throwing yourself into a trap.

Windsor was unwilling to take this risk, and he didn't come to attack Stormwind City. If he brought too many people, some unexpected problems would appear instead.

These questions and conjectures weighed heavily on Windsor's shoulders, making the old man a little out of breath.

Ten minutes later, at the gate of Stormwind City, Windsor reined in his horse, turned off his horse, and looked at the majestic white stone city wall and the solid iron-wood city gate in front of him. Subconsciously touched the waist pocket, and then strode forward.

The soldiers behind him also got off their horses one after another, and led by several real white-haired veterans, they stood guard beside Wen De Sole.

"Stop!"

The guards guarding the gate of Stormwind City saw a dozen or so soldiers galloping from afar, but because Windsor was wearing the armor of a private instead of the conspicuous golden marshal's armor, so until the marshal walked In front of those guards, those guards who were leaning on spears decorated with the blue lion ribbon of Stormwind, discovered the old marshal who had returned suddenly.

"Salute to you! Marshal Windsor!"

"Snapped!"

The four guards put their heels together in unison, put their palms on their chests, and stood up straight! There was unconcealable respect in their eyes. The old marshal in front of him was a great figure who single-handedly created the revival of Stormwind City, a true legend!

However, their responsibilities prevented them from letting Windsor pass so easily, so the captain of the guard asked cautiously,

"Master Marshal, you should be supervising the battle in the Burning Plains now, why did you suddenly return to Stormwind City? Did you receive an order from the royal family?"

"NO, I have not!"

The face of the captain of the guard changed. The general who commanded the army returned to the capital privately without being recruited. This is not allowed by the law of Stormwind City, but looking at the kind old marshal in front of him, he swallowed hard,

"I'm sorry, Marshal, I can't let you pass!"

"Boss! Boss! Boss!"

As soon as the words fell, the veteran behind Windsor drew out a sharp long sword. This seemed to be a signal. More than a dozen veterans drew out their weapons in unison, and the veteran who drew out the weapon first strode forward. before, angrily said,

"Corporal Henry! I order you to get out of the way. You are standing in front of a hero who really cares about this country. You are preventing a great cause, stupid!"

Windsor shook his head with a smile. He reached out and pressed the weapon raised by the veteran, then turned his head and looked behind him, looking at the murderous followers,

"Today, it will all end. Brothers, don't be afraid, we will win!"

Under the stop of the marshal, the veterans put their weapons back into their scabbards indignantly, but the tense atmosphere still existed. Windsor turned his head and looked at Corporal Henry who was anxiously holding the hilt of his sword.

"Son, haven't you seen the chaos in Stormwind City? There is a conspiracy behind all of this, and I am here for it!"

The old marshal took a step forward and pressed his chest against the spears raised by the soldiers.

"Children, are you going to stop me?"

The private soldiers looked at me and I looked at you, and then took a step back in unison. Corporal Henry's face was pale. He knew that today's Stormwind City is destined to be in chaos.

But now he has to make a choice!

Henry looked at the marshal in front of him, then at the veteran looking at him angrily, thinking about the chaotic scenes he saw when he was on duty in Storm City recently, finally gritted his teeth and raised his left hand.

"Put down your weapons! Soldiers, escort Marshal Windsor into Stormwind City!"

As soon as this order was issued, the five soldiers in his team immediately turned their guns and made way for a path. When Windsor led the soldiers into the city gate, Henry held on to the hilt of his sword , led the soldiers to follow behind these veterans.

"Son, you don't have to do this!"

Du Han turned his head and said to Henry, "Go back to your post, let us veterans handle these matters."

Henry took a deep breath,

"No, sir, I'm walking with heroes!"

The veteran who was the first to draw his weapon just now was a few steps behind, stood beside Henry, and patted Henry on the shoulder with admiring eyes.

"Hmph, kid, don't embarrass me!"

"This is my glory! Father."

Windsor strode behind the gate of Stormwind City. On the 300-meter-long white stone bridge, on both sides of the bridge, four statues stood on the pier in unison. It was the time when he led the army into the darkness. The door closed from the other side, the heroes who gave everything for this world.

That was Windsor's former comrade-in-arms, Danath Trollbane, pure blood of Stromgarde, fearless general and bravest warrior, Declan-Wildhammer, hero of the Wildhammer dwarves, dare and giant The great commander of Long Zhengfeng.

Alleria-Windrunner, the ranger captain of the Quel'Thalas Expeditionary Force, a beautiful and fearless archer, Khadgar, Medivh's apprentice, Wen Desuoer fought with him in Karazhana Fighting side by side, that is the most intelligent human mage.

There is also the statue at the end of the white bridge, Turalyon, the first five knights of the first generation of the Silver Hand Knights, the adjutant of Marshal Lothar, the immediate boss of Windsor, and the first to lead the army The general who broke through the portal of darkness, the proof of human courage.

Windsor walked in the center of these five sculptures, he could feel that his former partners were watching him, as if they were still standing behind him, fighting side by side with him at any time, behind him , Marshal Lothar Fangfo was watching him with a smile on his face, as well as the former king Ryan, as well as the soldiers and generals who died in battle.

The heroic spirits watched him from the sky, and at this moment, Windsor took on the legacy of those heroic spirits.

Infinite power surged in his heart. Behind him, the soldiers no longer blocked the team led by veterans. On the contrary, under the call of Corporal Henry, those soldiers joined the heroic parade one after another.

When Windsor walked in front of the statue of Turalyon, a rush of blood flowed in his body, and the old soldier mobilized all his strength and shouted towards Stormwind City,

"Just as it was destined a long time ago in Karazhan! Monster, here I come! Come with a just verdict!"

Driven by the strength of the high-ranking fighters, the sound surged back and forth in Stormwind City. Countless people looked up at the sky, and they recognized whose voice it was!

Windsor, he's back!

That stubborn old man is really back!

In Stormwind Fortress, the Council Hall, Count Katerina's complexion changed drastically with black hair and black pupils. This woman has the most perfect figure and the most delicate face. Beside him, the regent King Bolvar's expression is also a little weird.

"Guards, grab him! Get that vile criminal and his accomplices!"

Gritting her teeth, Katerina shouted to the royal guard beside her. The royal guard turned around and led the other guards towards the exit of Stormwind Fortress. It stands to reason that their transfer needs the consent of the Duke of Bolvar, but right now However, these guards ignored Bovar's opinion at all, and strode out of the council hall at the request of Count Katerina.

As soon as Duke Bolvar was about to speak, Katerina turned her face away and hugged his arm pitifully, "Dear Bolvar, do you have the heart to watch that old lunatic come and take me away? You know, I Everything I do is for this country!"

There was a flash of struggle in the Duke's eyes, and finally his face became indifferent,

"Wendsor has gone crazy, send an order to the defense general to arrest him, and don't let him disturb the upcoming meeting!"

The attendant of the Duke of Bolvar took the order and left. In a corner that the Duke did not see, a smug smile flashed across Katerina's delicate face, and there was also a smug smile in her black eyes.

Stormwind City, hmph, this country will soon fall into the hands of the Prestor family!

Also at this moment, in the corner of the old town, in the headquarters of the Stormwind sergeant intelligence organization "SI:7", Mathias Sean, the commander of MI7 in black leather armor, solemnly He said to the dozen or so high-ranking assassins standing in front of him,

"Marshal Windsor has returned! Order in Storm City is about to be restored, and now I command!"

"Shua!"

The high-ranking assassins put their heels together, ready to accept orders.

Sean swept across the faces of these able-bodied officers with satisfaction,

"I order that all MI7 be dispatched to ensure the smooth flow of the road from the trade area to the Stormwind Fortress! Any attempt to stop Marshal Windsor will be regarded as treason! You can deal with it at will!"

"Brothers, we all know this city is sick, now is the time to heal it! Let's go!"

In the next moment, the figures of all the assassins merged into the shadows. SI:7, a behemoth in the darkness, began to operate again, but it was different from the previous assassinations in the darkness. This time, it will appear as a positive force. Believe me, There are absolutely not many such opportunities.

At the same time when that roar resounded through the sky, in a hidden corner of the garden area of ​​Stormwind City, a lonely child sitting on a bench reading a book suddenly raised his head and looked at the empty sky.

His mouth grew wide at this moment, and then he quickly threw away the book, and ran towards the trade area alone.

But just as the child was passing through an alley full of flowers, two guards with indifferent faces stood in front of him, and they mechanically said,

"Your Highness, you have to stay here, this is the order of Duke Bolvar and Ms. Katerina!"

"I don't want to stay here! I've been here for half a month!"

Anduin, the little prince, straightened his exquisite clothes and the blue ribbon on his clothes, and shouted passionately, "I want to see my father! You bad guys, get out of my way, I will use Stormwind City The identity of the crown prince orders you, get out of the way!"

The little prince's face was flushed with excitement, but unfortunately, this magnanimous shout had no effect. The two heavily armed guards still stood indifferently in front of the alley, without making any move. plan.

"Marshal Windsor is back! You scoundrels, I'm going to see him! Get out of the way!"

Anduin rushed up, trying to squeeze the two guards away, but he was only a child, and a fierce light flashed in the guard's eyes, and with a wave of his hand, Anduin was thrown away like a rag doll He went out and fell to the ground.

The little prince fell hard this time, and his eyes were filled with tears, but when he raised his head and looked at the guards who were approaching step by step, his expression suddenly froze.

"Little prince, I advise you to be quiet, otherwise, I don't mind."

"boom!"

Before the guard finished speaking, a tall black shadow slanting down from the sky hit the guard's body. The huge force directly knocked the guard away. Just as another guard drew his weapon, a sharp The golden light exploded on his body, and the indifferent guy let out a mournful wail, and then his head was cut off by the sweeping golden battle axe.

After completely losing his life, all the camouflage lost its effect. A tall, headless dragonman body fell to the ground, and the stench of blood stained the nearby ground.

"Hey, black dragon dragon man, dirty things!"

Dick retracted his battle axe, and moved his body that was a little chilled due to the super-speed galloping in the sky. He turned his head, and the star warhorse Xingzhao, this powerful partner, was also panting rapidly, riding a lion. It takes 4-5 hours to go to Eagle City, but he arrived abruptly in just over an hour.

Xing Zai neighed in a low voice, which was urging Dick to take it back into the rein. This beautiful creature was extremely tired and couldn't wait to take a good rest, but when Dick took out the magic rein, Xing Zai But it neighed again, and flapped its wings, scaring the child in front who dared to touch its front legs and sat down on the ground.

"Hey, little Anduin! Why are you here?"
