1. Oppressive strategy
The strange things that happened that night, and the existence of the strange little ghost Yuna, Tyrion didn't reveal to anyone.
Instinct, instinct told him that Yuna's appearance was not accidental, that this strange little ghost must be a very important part, and as for where she came from and what she represented, Tyrion could not yet know, but he was sure that after he knew these secrets, a grand blueprint about him would be revealed before his eyes.
And for 10 days after that, Yuna never showed up again... This made Tyrion wonder if he was in a dream.
This question was finally answered when Annara, the soul healer, visited Stormwind.
"Yo, Tyrion, you look good."
The timid soul healer subconsciously shrank her head when she saw Tyrion, but she was unwilling to expose her timidity in front of Agatha, so she pulled herself together and beckoned to Tyrion.
"I've purified the body of the thousand-faced Uzur you killed... The evil monster devoured more than a thousand poor souls, and yesterday I sent them all into a cycle of life and death, but there were a lot of Draenei among those thousand people, so I estimate that in the next few years, the Draenei of the Borean tundra will expect an unexpected wave of baby booms. ”
Anala said to her good friend what she has done during this period of time, maintaining the circulation of the soul, which is the duty of the soul healer, and after hearing Anala's narration, Tyrion seemed to suddenly remember something, he looked at the timid soul healer, with a gentle smile in his eyes, he asked:
"Tell me about that Uzur, I'm very interested in that kind of demon, have the souls bound in its body been captured by you after they are released?"
"Don't use the word 'capture', I don't like it. ”
The soul healer wrinkled his nose, and then picked up a piece of necromantic fried fish fillet prepared for Tyrion by Tyrion's chef Lal, after tasting it, a trace of surprise flashed in Annala's eyes, Vargri and the undead have a commonality, they also lost their sense of taste and senses, and this kind of necromantic food allowed her to regain the sweetness that she had lost for a long time, which made the soul healer speed up the speed of eating, and she said inarticulate while eating:
"I only appeased those poor souls, but not all, during the battle, some souls were used by Uzul to repair their injuries, and some were thrown into the realm of death after Uzur's death, Agasa should know this... Although ordinary souls should not go directly to the realm of death, there are always some unlucky people who will be captured by the realm of death. ”
Vargyagasa, who was sitting on the side, looking at a book of human theater, joined the discussion, and looking into Tyrion's curious eyes, she explained:
"Most of the souls that are directly captured by the Dead Realm will fall into the hands of the Dementors, you've seen those disgusting monsters, right? Those things are evil, they torture lonely souls, causing them to have negative emotions to feed the Dementors, and once the souls are too tired to have negative emotions, they are abandoned by the Dementors... Then he was slowly assimilated into the nourishment of that world by the realm of death. ”
Agassa's explanation made Tyrion's heart twitch at this moment.
He was now sure that the little ghost Yuna was one of the souls who was devoured by Uzur and then captured by the Dead Realm, but Yuna must have experienced some strange things after entering the Dead Realm, so that this little guy not only escaped the capture of the Dementors, but also freely entered and exited the Dead Realm... And come and thank him in person.
But how could a child, a child less than ten years old, escape the capture of those Dementors? Maybe the reason Yuna hasn't been showing up lately is because she's fallen into the hands of the Dementors... And the existence of this child is extremely important to him.
"Damn it!"
In the surging emotions in Tyrion's heart, he suddenly clenched his fists, and the cold breath climbed up his chair and table at this moment, but soon stopped spreading, this sudden emotional outburst made both Vargri and the soul healer flutter, the King of the Dark Blade realized that he was out of shape, he picked up a cigarette roll, lit it, and after silently smoking the cigarette roll, a touch of frost burst out from Tyrion's hand, extinguishing the flame of the cigarette butt.
He raised his head and looked at the Soul Healer and Vargri in front of him, and he whispered solemnly:
"I need you to do me a favor... Help me find a little ghost trapped in the realm of death, I know it's hard, I know it's almost impossible to do, but it's important to me... I'll give you a good pay! ”
—————————————————————
The story of Tyrion finding his new friend is destined to last for a long time, the Dead Realm is too mysterious, everything in that place is an unsolved mystery to the living beings, and while Tyrion is busy repairing the damage caused by the Dead Realm, the situation in the rest of the present world has not been stable for a while.
In the distant continent of Kalimdor, the situation has become quite complicated with the increasing number of demons entering Azeroth through the Legion's Gate, but in general, the current situation is manageable for the Night Elves who saw the sky collapse 10,000 years ago.
However, in the Eastern Continent, a series of recent disasters have completely changed the situation of the Human Empire, and although the demons that landed here were completely killed by the rays of the Eye of Sargeras, the hidden dangers brought by the Legion Demons are far from being eliminated.
The Legion Gate that opened in the hollow on Arathi was destroyed by the Darkblade Undead with the self-explosion of the Elemental Lord, but the Legion Gate of the Lordaeron and Hinterland battlefields still existed, and the Darkblade did not take the initiative to help the humans destroy the Legion Gate, they even began to take advantage of the fire to rob, and at the same time that the internal order of the human race was messed up by the sudden appearance of demons, the army of the Darkblade also brazenly crossed the Riptide Fort defense line and truly entered the hinterland of the empire.
"Three more small portals have appeared over the Dalaran Strait, Tours, you take a team of knights to take a look, and if the situation is bad, call for reinforcements!"
Glokush stands in the ruins of the hilly Dunhold Castle, which his Frostfire Ridge legion has used as a temporary stronghold, and behind the Death Lord is a chair adorned with the head of the Doomsday Lord.
It was his trophies, a few days ago, several Death Lords launched a great "hunt" in the area where the hills and Stratholm meet, and the four demon lords and tens of thousands of elite demons who rushed out of the portal above Lordaeron were killed on the spot in the encirclement of the four warbands before they could bring disaster to the humans, and each lord received a satisfactory spoil.
But they didn't do all this to protect the humans in Camp Coldwind, on the contrary, after the war against the demons ended, Glokush gave an order, and the nearly 20,000 human civilians trapped in the entire camp of Coldwind were wrapped in the Grimblade Undead and retreated back to the hills of Hillsbrad.
In addition to the population plundered by Glokush, in Gilneys proper, there were nearly 100,000 civilians looted by werewolves before the demon invasion, and behind the tall Wall of Graymane, Gilney had become a large prisoner of war camp.
The deadly ray that Tyrion fired that day almost grazed the border area between the Wall of Greymane and the King of Alterac, and after the destruction of the continental shelf, the two areas also experienced earthquakes of different scales, and the appearance of the Dalaran Strait completely blocked Lothar's strategic plan to deploy troops to defend the hilly area.
At this time, after the Darkblade Undead crossed the Riptide Fortress, the Dalaran Strait was used as the boundary, and the south of the strait had completely fallen under the control of the Darkblade Undead.
This is really not good news for the stormy human empire.
"Lord, our scouts have discovered the movements of the Alterac Lord, the Human Emperor is sending the commoners of the Lord's realm to Lordaeron, shall we take advantage of the chaos to attack them?"
Bell, a high-ranking knight who followed Glokush very early. The Death Plague offered Glokush a battle, and the muscle-filled high-ranking knight didn't seem to be waiting any longer, but the Death Lord thought for a moment and rejected the tempting tactical plan.
"No, the demons of Lordaeron have already shown signs of spreading to the hills, the gates of the small legions in the last 3 days have been opened on the edge of the hills, and the demons seem to be ready to break our wrists with us, defend against demons, and completely assimilate this land is our most important task, as for the war in the Lordaeron region, leave it to Sarufar to fight."
"By the way, is the demonic encirclement of the Arathi Heights over?"
Glokush asked, Bell. Dead Plague shook his head:
"The 2 warbands of Lord Danas are now stuck on the high ground, but judging from the battle reports, the demons in that area are very active, probably because of the proximity to Hinterland, every day on the northern border, our brothers will fight with the demons a few times, and it is said that the dwarves and emperor ** regiments of Hinterland have lost their central defense line, and they can only hold on to the Eagle's Nest Mountain... This is also a good opportunity, my lord, all you need is a vanguard army, and a surprise blow may be enough..."
"But Hinterland isn't my zone, Bell, and I can't force you into his zone without saying hello to Lord Roglio... Once Rogge's strategy is disrupted, the consequences are likely to affect the battle situation in the entire northern frontier, His Majesty's plan has reached the final step, and the human empire is only one step away from collapsing, and we can't take risks at this time. ”
Grokush looked at his reckless subordinate with a little headache, this guy was a reckless man from the beginning, and he has not been able to change this reckless character until now, but he is loyal to the cause of the dark blade, and Glokush can't bear to discourage his enthusiasm, and after thinking for a moment, he said:
"But if you really can't stay idle and want to find some opponents to fight... Then go and garrison the Dalaran Strait, or I'll transfer you to Lord Luminas's Gilneth Warband, she's short of mid-level commanders right now, and it's also a place where demonic invasions are frequent, so you can let it all go. ”
"Lord Luminas?"
Bell with a head full of muscles. When the plague heard the name, he shook his head vigorously:
"I'm not going! The woman was a madman... Who knows what she'll do, I'd better guard the Dalaran Strait. ”
"Then get out! Trouble guy. ”
Grokush cursed, and the orc death knight Bell scratched his head and gave the lord a silly smile, and a moment later, a group of Darkblade Knights, armed to the teeth, left the camp with a large number of necromantic infantry.
The Death Lord Glokush sat in his chair adorned with demonic heads, his head bowed, studying the map of the northern frontier in front of him.
On that map, several lines of defense against the Empire of Humanity were marked with red arrows, the attack routes of the Kingdom of Lordaeron, the Frostfire Ridge Warband of Grockush in the Hills of Hillsbrad, the artillery unit of Roglio at Hinterland, and the Berserker Warband of Sarufal, who had now entered the area where Tirisfa and Stratholm had been destroyed.
In less than 10 days, the Dark Blade encircled and suppressed the demons while encircling the entire territory of Lordaeron from three directions, and if you add the Crimson Sword fleet cruising beyond the sea surface of the northern frontier, it is to trap the kingdom of Lordaeron from four directions.
Lothar's military movements could not hide from these Death Lords, and the Human Emperor was indeed a hero, and under the pressure of the demonic invasion, he transferred the royal domain and most of the civilians of the hills to Lordaeron at a speed that was racing against time.
That is to say, except for the Riptide Fort of the Stormgard Kingdom, the southern front that the Kingdom of Gilneth is still gritting its teeth for, as well as the Brute Hammer Dwarves and some High Elves in the Hinterland battlefield, all the population of the northern frontier is gathered in the northernmost Lordaeron Kingdom at this time, which is nearly 6 million people, and if you add the exiled elves of Quel'Thalas, this number will reach a staggering 7.5 million!
This is already almost half of the population of the entire human civilization, and it is also the last supporter of the stormy human empire.
And now, like beasts in a trap, under the pressure of the patient hunters step by step, they walked into the battlefield that the Dark Blade had arranged for them, just as Glokush said, Tyrion's plan for the future of the Eastern Kingdom was truly only one last step away, and it could be completely completed.
And the end of the Holy Araso Empire, is it destruction, or survival?
Up to now... This result seems to be very pessimistic, but maybe there will be a miracle.
