8. Loa's support

"General! The gangsters of the slums took advantage of the darkness and fled along the ogre's ridge. ”

In the early morning of the third day of the siege of the Lizardmen, Miss Yura, the Void Ray Scout Knight of the Shattered Sun Sky Guard, was at the sentry post on the outer wall of the city, reporting to General Tirasalan about the events of the previous night, and from where the two of them were standing, there was still panic in the vast slums of Shattrath City and the smoke and dust after the flames had been extinguished.

Obviously, the troublesome gangsters caused some small "accidents" before they left.

Miss Sky Knight flicked her tail as she wiped her cool-looking, powerful windshield specially made from the shops of the Black Iron District in Azeroth, as she said to her chief:

"Those villains must have bought off the ogre tribe outside of Shattrath City in advance, I saw with my own eyes that those ogres repelled several waves of lizardmen's siege just to meet them, and their actions were very decisive, they must have planned in advance, and under the pursuit of the lizardmen, they climbed over the ridge of Tik's Crow's Nest and fled all the way to the Hellfire Peninsula."

"I reckon they're probably fleeing to Azeroth, cowards!"

Miss Jura was displeased with her purple goggles on her eyes, which made her look very cool, and after listening to her report, General Draenei, who was eating breakfast with a piece of bread, nodded, and did not say anything.

It didn't seem to surprise him, but this attitude displeased Miss Jura, and the captain of the Sky Knight asked in a low voice:

"General, I don't understand, why should we let those hopeless gangsters escape? We could have subdued them and sent them to the walls to do hard labor, and when you look up, there are lizardmen, disgusting cold-blooded creeps that just want to rush into the city and eat us all... At this moment, we need their strength! ”

"Let them go up the walls?"

General Tirasalan finished his bread and patted the bread crumbs on his hands, he picked up his helmet and looked at his most capable subordinate, and he chuckled:

"Aren't you afraid that they will escape and affect our defense guards? Yura, I know you hate those gangsters, but at this moment, they don't need to exist in this city! Especially against an opponent like the Lizardmen, they will only hold us back, and as for why I let them escape from Shatrath, it has to do with the Sky Guard's next mission. ”

General Draenei glanced beyond the walls of the Nateroka forest with a dizzying array of lizardmen, and he turned back to Colonel Jura and said:

"The most hopeless scum of the slums either ran away or died in last night's fire, that's good, the rest are lives worth saving, listen to me, Yura, I've made an escape plan with High Priest Isana, and the priests and shamans of Aldor will organize the civilians of the slums that have gone up to the city as quickly as possible, and they will enter the Naglan steppe through the passage of Aldo."

"I've contacted the Kureni cavalry of Tara, who will meet you in the Nagrand steppes, and the Sky Guards will be responsible for guarding this large team... As fast as you can, send these life-deserving lives to the Francois Peninsula, where our compatriots are trying to restart the Stormkeep's Leap Engine, the last hope for the civilians of Shattrath City to escape the Lizardman disaster..."

"That's too far! Checkmate! ”

Colonel Jura, who was also a soldier who had experienced war, was well aware of the risks involved in such a long-distance escort and the retreat pursued by the lizardmen, and she flicked her tail and retorted:

"The mountain road from Nagrand to Gorlund is not easy to walk, and there is a need to cross the strait to get from Gorlund to the Francois peninsula... There are also lizardmen over there besieging the docks and cities, and it will be difficult to break through the defenses of those beasts with only the Sky Guard and the Kureni cavalry, and most importantly, the general! We're closer to the Dark Portal, and if we're going to retreat, why not consider the Dark Portal and opt for the tougher, less successful Void Jump? ”

"It's simple, Jura."

Tirasalan patiently asked:

"Ask the exiles in the slums if they would bow to the Grimblade and plead with the necromancy to let them through the Dark Door? You've been living in this city for a long time, Jura, and although these exiles have bad habits of one kind or another, most of them have a bitter hatred for Darkblade, not to mention, they have to live in Azeroth, and the people in that world don't have a good impression of Darkblade. ”

"Once these poor people are involved with the Darkblade, their lives in the new world will be as difficult as their lives, and our compatriots have managed to carve out a new home of their own in Azeroth, and they are integrating into that new world, and at this juncture, the news of the connection between the Draenei and the Darkblade will inevitably make the situation of our compatriots more delicate."

General Delaney put his helmet on his head, reached out and grabbed the heavy halberd, and said to Colonel Jura, who was behind him:

"Of course, I will not force them to have to take this difficult road, before leaving, for those who are willing to evacuate through the dark gate, open the east gate of the city and let them leave, the army stationed by the lizardmen over there is only symbolic, as long as they dare to take up arms and rush in waves, it is not a big problem to break through the defense line of the lizardmen."

"What about you? Checkmate! ”

The colonel of the Sky Guard heard a hint of ominousness in General Tirasalam's words, and she asked in a low voice:

"What about you and the entire Broken Sun? Which way will you go? ”

The question silenced General Tirasalan for a moment, he shook his head and whispered:

"We're not going anywhere, Yura, we're here... But if we're lucky, maybe we'll be able to meet in Azeroth in the future, anyway... Go ahead and do your mission! ”

Colonel Jura looked at the back of the general leaving, and then looked back at the city of Shattrath in the early morning sun, and the brave colonel had a hunch in her heart that this would probably be the last time she would look down on the city...

"Kugad! Your failure has greatly disappointed Venerable Toad Shranny..."

Under Shattrath City, in the lizardmen's makeshift fortress made of trees and masonry, the lizardman leader in charge of the strategy of cleaning Shattrath City, the white lizardman warrior Kugad who wears a crown of white bones, carries the lizardman battle flag, and holds a crystal war knife, powerful and savage, loyal and ruthless, and one of the priests under the command of the demon toad, is sitting on a seat decorated with white bones, and in front of him, the white lizardman warrior Kugad, who was defeated by General Tirasaran, is half-kneeling.

It's being reprimanded, it's experiencing its own humiliation, and for a warrior, defeat is always the greatest and most unbearable humiliation.

General Dakoro held the broad and beautiful crystal war knife in both hands, and it stared at the most powerful subordinate in front of him with its cold gaze, and said in a cold voice like a snake:

"You should have been put to death for delaying the execution of the big plan! But the benevolent Toad has given you another chance, and after the hourglass has flipped five times, a new assault on the city will begin, and you, as the vanguard, will once again lead the army to attack the city..."

"Kugaad, you were born to be one of the few god-given warriors among the lizardmen, you were born with a sacred mission to advance the Great Plan, this is your last battle to wash away your shame, if you still fail..."

"I'm not going to fail again!"

The lizardman warrior, half-kneeling on the ground, shouted:

"I will return to them the shame that the Delaney gave me tenfold! I will set the city on fire with my own hands as redemption for my sins of delaying the execution of my grand plan! I won't let the toad down again! ”

"Good!"

The anger that glittered Kugaard's eyes pleased General Dakoro, and the lizardman priest stood up, the temple guards on either side of him clinging to him, and Dakoro waved his paw at Kugaard, and he whispered:

"Come with me, Kugad, the Venerable Demon Toad has invited the Holy Spirit of the Lizardmen to bring us new weapons of war... The city in front of us is completely different from the small cities we cleaned before, its walls are thick, its defensive firepower is strong, maybe the last defeat is not all your fault, we lack experience in taking such a majestic city. ”

"But it doesn't matter... With the blessing of your Holy Spirit's new weapons, we will not fail again! ”

The lizardman warriors followed the general in silence, they left the forest under the city of Shattrath, all the way to the depths of the forest, after ten minutes of trekking, the lizardman warrior Kugad suddenly heard a terrifying low roar from the jungle, which made it subconsciously grab the weapon from behind and block the front of the general.

"Don't be afraid, Kugaad, this is our weapon!"

General Dakoro didn't care about the low roar coming from the forest pen in front of him, he led the guards and Kugad all the way forward, and soon entered the corral, in this hidden valley, Kugaard saw some strange beasts for the first time, they were powerful beasts he had never seen before, they were somewhat similar in appearance to the lizardmen, they were all dressed in heavy armor, and they were fed food by specialized herders, like war beasts about to set foot on the battlefield.

"This is the War Swift Dragon that hunts the blessings of the Holy Spirit Gondrak!"

General Dakoro pointed to the armored velociraptor running quickly in the valley in front of him, and introduced Kugad behind him:

"These wild hunters, who are somewhat similar to the lizardmen, are blessed by the divine power of Gondrake, they can carry the fast rush of our best warriors, and in the hunt, the keen perception and brave character of the dragons will also become our best helpers, of course, only the most powerful warriors can tame these violent dragons."

"Whew!"

A shrill chirp rang out from above the crowd, and Kugad looked up to see some pterodactyls that were larger than the pterodactyls ridden by the Lizardman Sky Knight, with sharper claws and more ferocious bodies, and they were also covered in wooden armor and carried some totems.

"It's the blessed beast of the tempest creature Parachus."

Dakoro flicked its claws in satisfaction, and said, "Those beasts are more powerful than our pterodactyls, they will be the lizardmen's new aerial combat beasts, tens of thousands of war pterosaurs are hatching in the Temple Islands where we were born, and soon, the lizardmen will have a full aerial legion, but this is not the most pleasing of all... Come with me, Kugaad! ”

The Lizardman General continued forward, deeper in the valley, and after rounding a ridge, the brave and powerful Lizardman warrior Kugad was stunned by the massive beast that appeared in front of him.

It was a triceratops, a beast that had never been seen in the world of Draenor, its thick hooves lying on the ground, its body was 5 meters high, and its body length was more than 10 meters, including the siege tail vertebrae wrapped in steel, and every step this beast took made the earth of the valley shake, and the three horned spines on its head decorated with steel and white bones were like spears rushing into the sky.

The head of this hideous war beast has a bone plate similar to a shield, and behind its wide back, it is decorated with a platform, on which is also placed a super-large war crossbow, and there are many seats, which should be reserved for the war beast knights, such a monster weighing more than 15 tons, enough to carry an elite raid team into the battlefield at one time, this is the real war beast.

And between actions, the tail vertebrae and the thorns at the tip of the head of this huge triceratops are also wrapped with blue lightning visible to the naked eye, which means that this terrifying war beast is likely to be able to use the elemental magic of thunder and lightning to attack.

Kugad couldn't help but think of the scene of this terrifying war beast stepping into the battlefield and smashing open the gates of Shattrath City with its tail vertebrae, what a violent and glorious battle posture it must be.

"It's called Helion, and it's a god-given weapon blessed by Tokaria the Holy Spirit of War and Aquin, the Holy Spirit of Thunder! It is a trampler, a destroyer, a flogging, and an executioner! ”

Although it was not the first time that the lizardman general Dakoro had seen the monster in front of him, he was still intoxicated by its terrifying power, and the lizardman priest said in a posture of reciting scriptures:

"Such a weapon of war is rare even for the noble demon toad, it represents endless power and the majesty of the Holy Spirit, it is the best war vehicle prepared by the ancient saints for the servants of the lizardmen to carry out the great plan, it is a legend in itself, and in our hometown, in the vast sea, in the temple islands, there are only a few such majestic war beasts..."

"Kugad! It's yours! Use it well, and don't let the toads and the Holy Spirit down..."

In the afternoon, with the roar of endless war drums, the lizardman warrior Kugad commanded the bravest and most fearless lizardmen soldiers, and rode the terrifying war beast Helion into the battlefield of Shattrath City.

This made the paladins of the shattered sun extremely stressed, but fortunately, most of the civilians in the city had been transferred out of the city, which made the warriors defending the city no longer have to worry about the future, and at the moment when the war drums of the lizardmen and the horns of the draenei tore apart the tranquility, the attack and defense of Shattrath City also entered the final stage.

But who will win and who will lose, it is still unknown... 2k reading web
