25. Stellar positioning
Demons wreak havoc across Azeroth, bringing a terrifying wave of destruction to the Legion's Gates that have opened in the Lordaeron, Arathi Highlands, and Hinterland.
Those tall, strange-looking, tyrannical demons roared and fell to the earth, and then, under the inner tumbling desire for destruction, instinctively attacked all the creatures around them, they roared, they screamed, they longed for blood, they longed for their twin blades to be stained with death, these demons with a chaotic nature did not know how to appreciate, kill, spread fear, is the only reason for their existence, and the only pleasure in their dull life!
The defenders of the Arathi Heights no longer had time to pay attention to the movements of the undead in the wetlands, and the Legion Gate opened in the sky of the plateau was impressively existing in the grassland sky not far from Fort Riptide, so those demons who landed rushed towards Fort Riptide with a large number of humans under the command of Commander Eredar of the Sky Battleship after a short period of confusion.
Almost immediately, the huge city that held the entrance to the northern frontier was plunged into the hardest of battles.
"Demons!"
King of Riptide Castle, Garin. His Majesty Thorbaine was wearing armor and standing on the second floor of the walls of Rapids, his hands clutching the masonry in front of him, and the bruises on his wrists were bulging, and the young king looked at the outer city besieged by demons in front of him, his eyes full of astonishment and a deep worry.
It's not the same as an attack of the undead...
In Garin's vision, the dark green sky in front of him was filled with an ominous aura, and dark green pillars of burning light and rain of flames roared across the solid outer walls, and the scorching evil energy easily cut through the solid walls, like a hot dinner knife cutting through butter.
The hideous and ugly demon guards ran in the flames of evil energy, they easily jumped up the city wall with great strength, wielding evil halberds in the never-ending hustle and bustle, in front of these demons, the frightened guards raised their shields with difficulty, but the counterattack of these warriors who were not tall enough to the chest of the demon guards seemed meaningless.
The moment the sharp halberd slashed, the soldiers in front of them were cut into three pieces with their shields, and the smell of blood also stimulated these evil beasts, making them even more furious, and in less than 10 minutes, the fortified outer city completely fell under the attack of dense berserk demons.
"Shoot! Shoot, knock them down! ”
His Majesty's chief guard waved his arms, and behind him, the sharpshooters of Fort Riptide raised their longbows and rifles in their hands, and at the moment when the screaming demon bats flapped their wings and swept across the sky, the sharpshooters pulled their bowstrings and triggers, and in the roar of the demon bats, a dozen winged demons tumbled and smashed on the flat ground not far from the king.
The devil bats are dead, but the knight behind them is not dead... Between the rolling of the hideous corpses of the demon bats, the demon knights covered in corrosive demon blood grabbed their weapons and climbed up, these demon bat knights were taller than those demon guards who attacked on the ground, and the armor on their bodies was thicker and more hideous, and under the dark green full-coverage helmet covered with spikes, the eyes that gleamed with viciousness quickly found a new target.
"Protect the King!"
The knights of Riptide Castle roared and rushed towards King Garin's position, and started a death match with those brutal demon knights with a fearless momentum, and the protected Garin subconsciously turned his head and glanced at the second fortress that was about to fall in the demon siege, and those demons sent some "big men".
The Siege Destroyers, who were astonishingly tall, bloated, with arms as thick as battering rams, and huge weapons in both hands, wielded their weapons with only a few bombardments, their amazing brute force was enough to destroy the walls that the Kingdom of Stormgard had spent so much money to build, and behind them, the grumpy demon guards were anxiously waiting for the moment when the walls would be destroyed.
They want more blood!
"Fort Riptide... The city of ancestors..."
His Majesty Garin had never been more pessimistic than he was now, but when he raised his head and looked at the dark green pillars of light that were sending more demons from the distant sky, the mood in his heart became even lower.
In the foreseeable future, Fort Riptide, the city that has guarded human civilization for thousands of years, perhaps... Perhaps it will usher in its own end today.
"Wow"
The king drew his sword from the sheath of the Stormgard family crest, and he reached out and flicked the crown above his head, and then threw the scabbard on the ground at his feet, where hundreds of thousands of soldiers were still fighting, and as a king, he was not willing to give up.
"For Stormgard! For the Empire! ”
Garin let out his own battle cry, and the young king slammed into the battlefield before him as the knights followed, and above him, the whistling demon bats kept throwing down more demon knights, and the inner city was no longer safe when it was about to fall.
"Get them out!"
Garin held his sword in both hands, slashing wildly, stabbing the tall demon knight in front of him through his back with a sword in his heart, the corrosive blood flowing down his long sword, making one hole after another in the ground.
The knights around Garin protected the fighting king, but the young king looked around and saw only the ugly devils slaughtering his soldiers and people.
"Holy Light... Save them! ”
Garin gritted his teeth and slashed the demon in front of him while praying in his heart, only in a truly desperate situation will you understand why people pray, but at this moment, Garin's prayer seems to be heard and answered.
But... It's not the Light.
"Boom"
Just as the Demon Knights were ready to rush forward to deal with the tricky Canned Knights in front of them, a black shadow descended from the sky and smashed between the Demon and King Garin like a meteor in a sculpture-like posture.
The black shadow was tall and muscular, not at all human, wearing heavy armor embellished with skeletons and black thorns, a horned helmet on his head, and a huge black battle axe embellished with necromancy runes and precision mechanical gears on his back, and on each of his hands, a black greatsword.
The blade was very unique, one side of the blade, the other side was a hideous saw chain, between the tall black knight's hands waved, the brutal weapon was activated, the saw chain on the other side of the blade began to turn wildly in the roar of gears and machinery, he tilted his head, his legs squatted slightly, and the next moment, under Garin's gaze, the brutal black knight smashed into the group of demon knights in front of him like a tiger rushing into a flock.
In the terrifying sound of the sawblade tearing flesh and bones, in the low battle cry and disdainful laughter of the black knight, the demon knight, who had just come to the world like the god of death, was like the most vulnerable child, easily slashed, chased, and finally completely shredded.
"It's so weak!"
The black knight stepped on the corpse of the last demon knight, and he glanced back at Garin and the knights who were frozen in place, the black knight's hideous helmet, and those green eyes gleamed with impatience.
"Young king, let your soldiers get out of the way, and don't go to the fearless death... This battlefield, I and my knights, have taken over! ”
"You... Who are you! ”
Garin asked aloud, and the black knight threw his beating chainsaw sword into the ground in front of Garin, and he carried another chainsaw sword stained with demonic blood, and between his shoulders, he said his name.
"Glokush. Black Hand, Commander of the Frost Fire Ridge Legion, don't waste my time, get out! ”
"You guys! Why are you helping us? ”
Garin gritted his teeth and grabbed the heavy black saw chain sword in front of him, and he looked at the back of Glokush leaving:
"We are enemies! Isn't it? ”
"Enemies? Don't think too highly of yourself, young king. ”
Without looking back, Glokush walked towards the brutal battlefield below, his hoarse voice echoing across the blood-stained battlefield:
"If you want to be our enemy, you are still a little unqualified."
"However, if you want to kill demons, I'm welcome as well, provided that you stay out of the way, and... Don't hold back! ”
This domineering words made Garin can't help but grit his teeth, but when he looked back, he saw the black military array that appeared on the grassland in the distance, they were like a tide, surging towards the pillar of light descended by the demons.
In the distance, artillery fire far beyond this era roared, as if to tear away the despair that enveloped the land.

"It's a good thing that so many guns were bought in advance! What the hell, these demons, what the hell! ”
On the Highland Front in Hinterland, Kudland. The Hammer looked at the dense undead below, as well as the demons mixed in the undead, Rao is this Hammer dwarf is a real battle hero, and he can't help but feel worried at this moment.
He didn't dare to imagine what kind of terrible outcome the entire Hinterland would have encountered if he hadn't bought enough arms in advance to arm the entire defense line and the entire Eagle's Nest Mountain, and in the face of the double assault of the undead and demons.
Now, wearing a steel helmet from the Black Cord Military and Future Technology Laboratory, Kudran is in the dwarven fortress, using a telescope to observe the battlefield beneath the heights.
With ample firepower reserves, the battlefield of Hinterland is not as chaotic as Arahi, the dwarves and elves almost took out the strength to eat, constantly smashing the whistling cannonballs into the battlefield in front of them, in the case of the sky is full of demon bats and dreadful demons, the griffin knights of the brute hammer can not rise into the air normally, can only rely on this saturated firepower strike, while bombing the entire underground plain of Hinterland, the undead and demons on the ground are also buried in the explosion of flames.
But this is not the way to go, Kudran is a veteran who has experienced several wars, he knows very well that once the air supremacy is occupied by the enemy, in the past, in the battles in which the Hammer participated, it was the Hammer Knights who occupied the air supremacy, but now, the demon bats and fear demons all over the sky made the Hammer Knights completely lose the battlefield in the sky.
In the rear of the battle line, the anti-aircraft fire of Eagle's Nest Mountain has been almost destroyed by those whistling demon bat knights, once Eagle's Nest Mountain is occupied by demons, the entire Hinterland battlefield will be under attack, Vorstad is struggling to support in Eagle's Nest Mountain, but it is impossible for Kudran to ask the knights to take to the air to fight in such a situation that is almost dead.
This made Kudran angry, but also an indescribable frustration rose in his heart.
"Look at the sky! Chief Kudran, look at the sky! ”
The sudden sound of a dwarven musketeer made the son of the Hammer look up, and he saw the scene of the demon bats and dreaddemons in the sky fleeing in panic, which gave the dwarf a glimmer of hope, and he rotated the magnification of the telescope, and soon discovered the reason for the evacuation of the demon air force.
Dragon!
The green dragons hidden in the Seradan Valley, those green dragons who didn't care about mortal warfare at all, actually took the initiative to rush out of their homes this time and began to fight those demons to the death in the sky.
"They're here to fight demons! Golden opportunity! ”
Kudran threw down his binoculars, grabbed his storm hammer, and rushed out of the fortress:
"Let the knights take off! Cooperate with those dragons to clear the sky! Then go to support Eagle's Nest Mountain... Wait, just bolt, just bolt! Did Hesso also send us four super bombs? ”
After receiving an affirmative answer, Kudran's small eyes narrowed, and he looked at the several demon warships suspended in the sky above him, and after a moment, the dwarf shouted:
"Drag that bomb out! Strapped to the griffin, we... Let's blow up the flying ships! ”

"Didi, Didi"
The calm and dim sea water can block the transmission of most sounds, and the demons who like fire and hate cold will not haunt the bottom of the sea, and under the sea outside the northern frontier, the huge black battleship "Sea King" is like a ghost floating in the water, under the manipulation of Dai Lin, this battleship is moving quickly underwater in a swift and silent, but extremely brutal attitude.
In the dimly lit cabin, the Great Lich sat at a special table, and in his hand, the fragments of the scattered and extinguished Evil Rune Stone placed in a special magic circle suddenly shone red, indicating that the target of the evil rune stone had entered the range of the Great Lich's magic exploration circle.
"It's coming! The speed of the leap is fast! ”
The Great Lich waved his hand, and a magical map of the stars appeared in front of him and the others behind him, and between the crudely marked stars, a red point of light could be seen in a flickering way, in the curtain of stars, rapidly approaching the planet in the center of the map.
"The target will pass through the last portal in about 30 seconds!"
The Great Lich turned back to the King of the Blades behind him and said:
"The time has come!"
"Dai Lin, rise quickly! Prepare for the final ring of "Disaster Day"..."
Tyrion waved his hand, and the next moment, the Sea Throne hidden under the sea quickly rose under the effect of a strange force, and Tyrion walked quickly to the deck of the Sea Kingship, he stretched out his hand and opened the ammunition compartment of the black heavy cannon that occupied most of the deck, and then with the help of the Great Lich, he put the magic gem that shone with an obscure dark green light and was engraved with endless runes on the surface into the ammunition compartment.
"The Eye of Sargeras..."
The Great Lich looked at the black cannon that was activated in front of him with some regret, and he whispered:
"This magic gem that the Dark Titan carries with him, if I leave it to study, maybe we can get a glimpse of the mystery of the Titan's energy..."
"But I think it's worth it to kill a big demon."
Tyrion patted the cold and heavy "Backfire" heavy cannon beside him, and he looked at the Great Lich, and a flash of pleasure flashed in his eyes:
"It's finally time for this day, I've been preparing for this funeral for too long..."
"Don't you feel pleasure? Khadgar? We ants are about to kill a giant with our own hands... Doesn't this make people feel so excited that it's easy to suppress themselves? ”
"In the new era, a word that always hangs on my lips... Finally, it's no longer an empty word..."
