Vol 2 Chapter 1635 3. If you encounter a trap, you must jump into it. This is the right trap.

   Chapter 1635 3. If you encounter a trap, you have to jump into it. This is the least respect for the trap!

There are not many demon camps near the Krokun mountain wall, so the scattered demon hunters quickly completed the work of clearing the vicinity. When they returned one by one, they still had a fighting spirit on their bodies. These focused on hunting demons. The madmen are full of energy, just like the demons who have been hacked to death by them have added some strange BUFF to them.

   But Illidan remained calm.

   This demon hunter is also a man of style. He doesn’t seem to join the battle today. Maybe he hasn’t found an elite demon worthy of being solved by himself?

   Anyway, when Black and the hapless Paladins returned to Kroku’s camp with a few wounded, everyone else was waiting here.

   Looking up into the sky from this rift at the bottom of the Krokuun mountain wall, you can still vaguely see the faint trail left by the Exodar as it flew through the fel atmosphere.

   It was fine-tuning its bearing in preparation for the upcoming mass airborne at night.

   “Then, let’s summarize the news.”

   After the pirates returned, Illidan Stormrage, sitting cross-legged by a purple campfire, holding a whetstone to sharpen his cool Azzinoth Warblade, raised his head and said to the others:

   “According to the Illidari’s reconnaissance near the Petrified Forest, we can confirm that the demons around here have been mobilized near the Nathrax fortress.

The fortress is the absolute center of the Burning Legion’s rule in the Krokuun Mountains. It is the command headquarters and has three large strongholds, located in the Anniheran Pool, the Wall of Despair and the Cape of Destiny. The stronghold guards the road to the Nathrax fortress, with demonic warships cruising in the sky.

   Compared with the results of my last reconnaissance here, the demons have obviously shrunk the defense line, which gave us the opportunity to move freely around the petrified forest, but also greatly increased the danger of us breaking through the demon defense line. ”

  Others nodded and praised Illidari’s professionalism in demon detection in their hearts or words. In just an hour, these blind men with great mobility completed their investigation tasks brilliantly.

   It is really reassuring to have such a teammate.

   But everyone else found it. After Illidan finished speaking, Black nodded towards Maris, and the former human ranger general leaned on a precision long-barreled shotgun and said to the others:

   “We found a bombing crater deep in the petrified forest, and according to Black’s judgment, we can be sure that before we got there, the demons were fighting a faction called the ‘Legion of the Light’.

   I asked some Kroku at the camp just now, and the Broken confirmed our thoughts, but they have no connection with the Legion of the Light, so can’t provide more information.

   But what is certain is that there are other rebels besides us and Kroku in this felheart land of the stars, and they can go toe-to-toe with the demons in some cases.

   Preliminary judgment that this Holy Light Legion should have a certain strength, maybe we can find a way to contact them. ”

   “We are the same here.”

   The unlucky paladins said:

  ”Also based on Black’s guess, the great knight Alexandros Mograine, who was previously captured by the demons by evil methods, was imprisoned near the petrified forest.

   However, the information about him is vague, and we cannot determine his current condition. According to Chief Kroku, Mograine is likely to be imprisoned in the Anehran molten pool to the north. ”

   “That sounds like a trap?”

   The Orc Assassin Garona, leaning on the stone pillar, played with the Kingslayer dagger in her hand, and said:

   “We got these conditions as soon as we landed. It’s a little unbelievable that it went smoothly. I feel like the demons deliberately set up a circle, waiting for you rescuers to jump in.”

   “Be confident, my friend.”

  The pirate sitting on the stone pillar was holding a burning pipe, he crossed his legs and said in a gentle tone:

“It doesn’t sound like a trap, it’s a trap! The demons are fishing, and Mograine is the bait. But what I’m curious to know now is whether this plan was the work of the eredar demons, or the Nathrez. Are they hosting?”

   “Is there any difference between the two?”

  Illidan was stunned for a moment, and then asked a meaningful question.

  Black shrugged and said in a riddle:

   “It doesn’t sound like the difference, but it’s actually a big difference, at least for me. Speaking of which, did the Assassin Squad find nothing?”

  The pirate looked at Garona and said:

   “I handed over my dark temple to your commander in chief. I’ll be very disappointed if I don’t find anything.”

   “We didn’t cruise around the Petrified Forest. We landed very close to Kroku Camp, so we turned around.”

  Garona played the kingslayer in her hand like a butterfly wearing a flower, she said:

   “The bad news is that we found a hidden demonic teleportation beacon not far from the camp, and those demon choppers didn’t know what to do, and quietly approached Kroku’s base camp.

   It looks like he is planning to make a surprise attack.

  The good news is that we took down that beacon before it was activated.

  Before you came, we also killed a Valkyrie Doom, um, a very large elite female demon commander with wings.

  Her head was placed in their ‘treasure house’ as a trophy by the Krokus. Speaking of which, Black and his wife should like these Krokus very much, and you will definitely become friends.

   They also have a savage habit of collecting enemy heads for loot. ”

   “Cool, that’s really nice, I feel the kindness of Argus for me.”

  The pirate whistled, expressing his appreciation for the actions of the assassins, and then all eyes turned to the last squad of death knights.

   Lord Ravencrest, who personally brought several death knights into Krokuun, sat stably on a frozen stone, and he felt the gazes of others, especially Black.

  The pirate’s eyes carried a strong inquiry.

   Lord Ravencrest knew what they wanted to ask, so he opened his mouth and said:

   “The Helm of Dominance is indeed here.

   When I fell into the petrified forest, I felt the call of death at the will level. That power is very similar to the Frostmourne held by His Majesty Lothar, and it can even be said that the two originate from the same source.

   Of course, the call from the Helm of Domination is not as domineering and sharp as Frostmourne, it is more like a call to the dead, soft but unstoppable.

  My subordinates and I were determined to fight against it, which is why we didn’t carry out a reconnaissance mission.

   We can’t get close to it.

   I doubt that there may be no undead that can refuse its gentle but real call.

It’s a terrible thing to leave it in the hands of the demons, if they use the power of the Helm of Domination well, our raid on Argus will never be successful, and we may even have Krokuun in the face of the sea of ​​undead. Can’t get out.

  The Helm of Domination must be taken back from the devil before the massive raid! ”

   “Can you sense its location?”

   asked Illidan.

   “Yes, very clear, just north!”

   Lord Ravencrest got up and pointed to the volcanic lava pool in the north that was constantly erupting with green magma. He glanced at the paladins and said:

  ”I don’t know if it’s a coincidence, but it’s probably in the same position as Lord Mograine, I mean, you may have to prepare for the worst.

   Alexandros Mograine has become the bearer of the Helm of Dominion.”

   “Impossible! Absolutely impossible!”

  Uther said in a deep voice:

   “Mograine’s will is as fiery as a thousand suns. He is a man blessed by the Holy Light, and he will never surrender to such evil.”

   “And if Mograine has failed, then we’re dealing with a whole army of undead.”

   Old Fording, who was chewing jerky, also leaned on his sword and said:

   “It turns out that we haven’t found any undead in the Krokuun area, which also supports Uther’s view, and the Mograine brothers are still insisting.

   Or maybe the demons are going to set the Helm of Dominion a trap for us that we have to get into. In this sinister time, we are counted.

   I think we need better wisdom to deal with the devil’s tricks. ”

  Old Fording finished speaking, and the next moment, everyone’s eyes turned to Black, who was sitting on the stone pillar, breathing clouds, and even the blind Illidari “looked” at him.

   This made the pirate blink in surprise, and he asked back:

   “Hey, don’t you think that I can use my dark wisdom to conjure an invincible army for you in a place where there are many demons, with others taking the lead?

  Although I am very grateful for your attention to me, I really cannot do what you desire.

   I came here alone, with only one mad enlightener and three trash warlocks who know nothing but flattery, and I didn’t bring my fleet with me.

   Unless you are willing to support me in holding a Void Sacrifice here.

  Let me do the math, throw all the local Kroku Crusher and the elite strikers we prepared into the sea of ​​​​light, and probably borrow a faceless army from the stingy Void Lord? ”

   “Don’t make such a bad joke!”

  Illidan said:

   “We all know your character, pirate. You never do anything you are not sure about. Since you came to Argus, it proves that you have a plan.

  Although I don’t know what method you will use to get back the Helm of Dominance, I know you must have a complete plan. It’s about time, don’t hide it, let’s talk.

  You are the commander! ”

   “Ah, so I’m the commander, I thought I was your servant.”

  The pirate stretched his voice and said something, he propped up his body and jumped off the stone pillar where he was, and said to everyone in front of him with his hips on his shoulders:

   “This is what you said by your own mouth. Next, this commander will issue an order. Those who don’t want to obey the command will rub the hearthstone now, or find a lava and jump down to kill themselves, so as to save me the trouble later.

  I order the Illidari to go immediately.

   Crossed the Demon Front to the north and approached the Anniheran molten pool, and waited for my news to launch an attack. Note that it was a feint attack. The louder the noise, the better.

  Assassins and hunters spill out now and start free hunting right away.

   I’ll give you three days. When the vanguard troop is assembled, you must bring back at least thirty soul stones of demon commanders. Don’t use low-level demons to make up the number. I found out that the problem is very serious.

  Finally, the Paladins, you must go with me to the molten pool of Aniheran, to confirm whether Mograine is still alive, and to wait for the opportunity to retake the Helm of Dominance.

   Don’t ask any more questions, I know what I’m saying now sounds like a death sentence to you.

   That’s right, we are going to die, and people set a trap for us. If we don’t jump in, we will be disrespectful to those third-rate conspirators. ”

  Black’s words blocked Uther and Fording’s questions in their throats. The two great knights looked at each other, and without saying anything, they started to pack their bags and prepare to go.

“What about us?”

   Lord Ravencrest asked, Black pointed to his feet and made a move to get up.

  The death lord nodded, he knew it was Black asking him and his death knights to start summoning the undead army.

  The Kroku Breakers have fought against demons in this barren mountain area for more than 20,000 years. The number of warriors buried here is an astronomical number. Even if only one tenth of it is evoked, it is a considerable cannon fodder force.

   As for the attitude of the Kroku Shattered to the resurrection of the dead

   Don’t worry, it’s already this time, any means that help to win can be used, and the mood of the living is something that you don’t need to care about in the face of victory.

   “Okay, let’s prepare ourselves. After three hours, we will go to the Anniheran molten pool.”

  Blake clapped his hands and said to everyone in front of him:

   “If we act fast enough, we can welcome our friends with a glorious victory when they come down.

   Ladies and gentlemen, Krokuun is a fringe place in the world of Argus, where the demons have not invested their real power.

  The defenders here are the third-rate troops of the Legion. If we can’t open up the situation here, we should go home as soon as possible and find a safe enough place in Azeroth to dig a hole and bury ourselves. ”

After   , the pirate ignored the others. He swaggered with his hands behind his back to look at Chief Hatton, who was meeting with them. The Broken Chief looked at Black with a questioning look.

   He had heard a series of stories about Black during his brief stay in Draenor, and he knew that he was a cunning and vicious fellow, but he was not sure whether Black’s legend would survive in Argus.

  The pirate easily sensed distrust in the eyes of the Broken, and he did not defend anything, but asked in skilled Eredar:

   “You have something in your hands that can communicate the will of the broken world, right?”

“Have.”

   Chief Hatton already knew that there was a prophet in front of him, so he did not hide it, nodded, and said:

   “We are ready to give you the ‘Holy Stone’ to aid you in your battles, but that thing is very obscure, and only the most talented shaman in Kroku can barely hear the oracle of the world from it.

   We can survive in this land of doom for more than 20,000 years, thanks to the protection of this earth oracle. ”

   “Take me to see it.”

   Pirate says:

   “Don’t worry, Chief Hatton, I won’t take it.

  I want to ask you, you have been hiding in the Krokuun area, didn’t that holy stone guide you to find a way to go to another broken continent Mac’Aree? ”

   “You mean Eredas?”

   Chief Hatton said in surprise:

   “That place was indeed called Mac’Aree before the destruction of the world, meaning the ruling crown of Argus, but it was completely cut off from Krokuun, and no one but the demons could go there.

  We now call it Eredas, to represent our nostalgia for the former capital and civilization.

   But you are right, the Holy Stone does guide us to live in Eredas, but unfortunately we are too weak to pass through the blockade of demons. ”

   “That’s a pity.”

  The pirate pouted and said:

   “Mac’Aree’s environment is much better than Krokuun. It’s as beautiful as heaven in this apocalyptic world. If you can go there, your broken civilization may have hope of rising.

   But do you really know who is talking to you through the holy stone? Will of the Earth? No, no, that existence is much more terrifying than the will of the earth. ”

  Black gave a mysterious smile.

   He said very cleverly:

   “You will be scared to death by that terrible truth.”
