27. Strangle the Light!

"There, there's a summoning circle set up by demon believers in that attic, and look at your city, it's literally turned into a meeting place for rats."

In the city hall of Shatar City, in front of the demon hunter Illidan, there is a topographic map of Shatar City, around which several city garrisons stand, and every time Illidan issues an order, one of the garrisons turns and leaves, and takes the soldiers who have been prepared for a long time, and goes to the indicated location to hunt down the demons or demon believers hidden there.

In order to better hunt down demons, demon hunters will choose to sacrifice their eyes in exchange for ghost vision that can detect the demon's breath, although they will be divided into the "blind" column in terms of appearance, but in fact, through the magic pattern secret method engraved on the body, the demon hunters can still perceive the surrounding objects, but anyone who has seen the scene of the demon hunter chasing the demon will not think that this group of hunters who have lost their eyes have become blind.

They move incredibly swiftly and are even more agile than those who have eyes!

As for the Demon Hunter recruits, it takes them a long time to train to master the method of hunting demons with ghost vision, but for a Grand Master of Demon Hunters like Illidan, the demons hidden in the city of Shatar are as conspicuous as torches in the night, and he can smell the hiding places of those demons from the wind blowing around him without turning on the ghost vision.

Yesterday afternoon, the Grand Garrison of Vihari issued an order to the city defense army, asking the garrison officers in charge of the city's defense to cooperate with Master Illidan to capture the demons hidden in the city, this order once made the garrison guarding the city feel dissatisfied, these believers of the Holy Light believe that everyone who lives in the city is a believer of the Holy Light, and under the light of the Holy Light, it is impossible for the demons to infiltrate the city.

But the result was a big blow to these confident garrison officers.

Over the course of one night, under the command of Illidan, heavily armed garrisons raided several buildings in the city, capturing at least 70 hidden demons and hundreds of cultists who secretly worshiped demons, and seized a large number of dangerous goods, including some explosives, several demon conscription circles that had been set up for most of them, and many materials with an evil atmosphere.

This shows that a city illuminated by the Holy Light is not as safe as it seems.

It also shows that paladins are not professional in the hunt for demons

These warriors wielding holy light may never be afraid or retreat on the battlefield against demons, but they can fight demons with real swords and guns, and once the paladins are allowed to catch those hidden hidden under the world, their efficiency will be much worse.

After all, among the six basic powers of the stars, it is not the Holy Light that is absolutely opposed to the evil energy, but the arcane power, in other words, it is much more efficient for a mage to track the whereabouts of the demon in the crowd than the paladin, but although most demons are afraid of the positive power contained in the Holy Light, for those demons who are good at concealment, it is not enough to bear the light of a small amount of Holy Light for them to show their prototypes.

"Perhaps I should send a squad of demon hunters to your city, Draenei, you are clearly being "looked the other way" by the demons! ”

Illidan sensed the evil energy activity in the city, he casually spoke to the gloomy Draenei people around him, while spreading his perception to the farther parts of the city, I don't know if it was an illusion, since stepping into the city, Illidan has been some instinctive vigilance in his heart, it seems that something bad is about to happen, and with the opening of the dawn the next day, this ominous premonition is getting stronger and stronger.

And just as he extended his perception to the wasteland far beyond the city, a faint surge of evil energy immediately made Illidan frown.

"No, there's no problem with that feeling!"

The Grand Master of the Demon Hunter brushed aside the garrison beside him and rushed out of the town hall, ignoring the surprise of the pedestrians around him, he spread his demon wings and glided to the roof of the town hall, he turned on the ghost vision, and "looked" in the direction of the surging evil energy, while all the senses around him became dim, at the end of his ghost vision, a suppressed dark red light filled his vision like a burst of flames.

"The Legion's Gate is in this place!"

Illidan drew his Aeginos blade with his backhand, and in a flash of astonishment, his wings flapped into the sky and charged towards the soon-to-open Legion Gate in the distant wasteland.

His hunch was correct!

The demons of the Burning Legion are about to launch a surprise attack on Shatar!

Right now!

———————————————————————————

The Draenei army went out at night to smash down the doors of the inhabitants and capture some of the people they knew well, which naturally caused fear among the civilians, especially in peacetime, and such strange actions would make the civilians fear for their safety.

Therefore, in the early morning of the next day, outside the Shatar City Hall, there were many Draenei who did not know the truth, and demanded an explanation from the city hall for the arrest last night.

This incident directly alarmed the prophet Viren, who had just finished meditating.

Although the Vihari garrison had reported to the Prophet about the upcoming clean-up of the city, at that time, Viren, who was busy with other things, thought that it was only a small-scale clean-up operation, and he didn't pay much attention to it, and now that hundreds of people were captured overnight for worshipping demons, the nature of the matter was a little more sensitive.

"Vihari's style is a little too reckless, straightforward, full of military style, very similar to how she drove away the outcasts in Taymor."

The Prophet, who was hurrying to the town hall in a carriage, fiddled with the rosary in his hand and said to Marlad, the Grand Garrison Officer, who was sitting opposite him:

"It's a quick fix, but it's easy to cause people to worry, as it is now."

"But Prophet, I don't think Lord Vihari has done anything wrong, for those cultists, this iron-fisted style of the Vihari garrison is more appropriate!"

Marrad, the Grand Garrison, said solemnly:

"You haven't seen the conclusive evidence seized by the city guards, if it weren't for Master Illidan being a guest in the city, if it wasn't for him uncovering the disguise of the city, I can't believe that there are so many demon believers in our brick-by-brick city, there is too much darkness hidden under our order, it's time for a clean-up activity."

"Prophet, I'm sure you also know that the threat of a traitor hidden within us is far more terrifying than the invasion of thousands of demons!"

"Marrad, I didn't say that Vihari did something wrong."

The Prophet waved his hand and said with a smile:

"I'm just saying that the kid should be a little softer, but as you said, maybe at this critical moment, it does take a heavy-handed action and what's going on outside? Why is it so noisy? ”

The prophet opened the window of the carriage in confusion, and looked out, just in time to see Illidan holding the blade flapping the demon's wings and rushing out of the city, although the demon hunters are committed to hunting demons, they also use evil energy to fight, and their combat form is too similar to real demons, for civilians, it is difficult for them to tell the difference between demon hunters and demons.

Illidan's battle posture in front of the crowd naturally frightened the Draenei gathered at the gate of the town hall into fleeing, thinking that the demons were coming to attack Shatar City.

Well, that's exactly what happened.

Outside the city of Shatar, the gate of the legion on the wasteland in the far distance slowly opened, even the ordinary garrison officer felt the warning from the holy light in his heart, and the prophet even walked quickly up the sentry tower of the city with a solemn face, and from a distance, he could clearly see the shocking storm of evil energy in the distant wilderness, along with the earth and the sky, and the gate of the legion slowly opening in the sky.

The dark green halo of the evil energy, like ink poured into a basin of water, was infecting the blue sky and white clouds little by little, like the eyes of the legions cracked in the sky.

"The demons are coming!"

The startled Prophet immediately waved his staff and shouted to the garrisons behind him:

"Let's get our servicemen moving! Evacuate the civilians to a shelter on Walrus Island! Volos and I will hold up the city's defensive barriers! Those demons, they're coming for us! ”

"Malad, let the Forbidden Ship take to the skies! In addition, open the portal to Kalimdor and the Eastern Continent, send an emissary, we need the support of our allies, and send a request for help to Ulduar! Honorable Guardians, you will not ignore the demon's attack! ”

The Prophet issued one order after another in an orderly manner, and the garrisons of the city defense army took orders one by one.

The Draenei people have been chased by demons in the stars for more than 20,000 years, and they are not panicked when they encounter a demon attack again, the soldiers pushed the heavy city defense weapons into the city walls according to the orders of the prophet, and the demons cannot attack the city by parachuting until the holy light barrier of the prophet and Naruvolos collapses, they only need to block the demons in the wilderness in front of the city before the reinforcements arrive.

"Our city will not fall! The Draenei will not run anymore! ”

The Prophet held the Staff of the Redeemer and looked at the demon fleet slowly rushing out of the Legion's Gate in the distance, and the demon armies that were pouring out of the rifts in the teleportation light, he had seen this formation countless times, but this time it seemed to be a little different.

The Prophet put his hand on his heart with a strange expression, his heart beat very violently before, as if something was about to happen.

——————————————————————

"Finally, that crumb!"

In the dead silence of the stars, Lord Talgas, the Legion Hunter, finally breathed a sigh of relief as he looked at the Legion's Gate slowly opening in the stars in front of the fleet.

"Fleet! Use the flagship Mallet of Evil Energy as the vanguard and break into formation! Follow me into Azeroth's revenge, begin! ”

With the haze of the Lord of Targas sounding in the communication channels of the Legion fleet, the thrusters of the warships of the entire fleet began to work wildly, and on the bridge of the flagship Evil Hammer, the Ereda General Lakish with a warhammer and shield was standing beside Targas, and he could see that his ship was approaching the open Legion Gate, and as long as he passed through this portal, he could enter Azeroth, and he could appear over the city of Viren.

The destruction and the terrible revenge can be cast on the heads of Viren and his cowardly people.

Lakish didn't feel the pleasure and expectation that he had imagined countless times at this moment, in fact, this Ereda General had a strange feeling in his heart that he had never felt before, and he was a little afraid!

He seemed to be afraid to meet with Viren, to meet his "father" whom he had never met

But fortunately, Lakish had the twisted visor that Targas gave him on his face, so his apprehension was not discovered by Talgas.

In order to hide his strange emotions, at the moment when the battleship began to enter the gates of the legion, Rakish suddenly asked:

"Lord Talgas, why are those Nasrezms so rampant? I've been fighting for the Legion in another sector, and I don't know much about this sector, but now it seems that the demons here don't simply obey the fraudsters? ”

"Don't worry about the crumbs, Rakish."

Lord Talgas was very unhappy and said:

"Since the return of Casanatyr, the docile Nasrezm has become unruly, and these cunning dogs think that we Eredas are not qualified to command them, especially the ambitious Casanatyr, the Dreadlord who is bent on extracting more power from the Dark Titan, and even on an equal footing with the fraudsters, but that is destined to be a fantasy!"

Targas, the Legion Hunter and confidant of the Fraudsters, grew fierce and muffled, and he let out a series of eerie laughs and said to Rakish beside him:

"The Nasrezms thought that they would be able to obtain glory and wealth from Lord Sargeras by finding the Pillar of Creation for the Dark Titan, hehe, they thought very well, but they also had to live to enjoy it When the Pillar of Creation is stripped off, that is, when these damn dogs are in pieces, the fraudsters are not people to be bullied, wait and see, Rakish, they will die a miserable death!"

"But now, this is not the time to think about this!"

Seeing the surging aura of evil energy at the Legion's Gate enveloping the entire fleet, Legion Hunter Talgas removed his hunting twin swords from his waist that were embellished with the skulls of countless creatures, licked his lips, and whispered:

"Now, we're going to settle accounts with Viren"

"Now, we're going to extinguish his hope, we're going to snuff out his light!"
