Chapter 338: Borrowing Identity for One Use (1/4)
The town of Nanhai has gone haywire.
First, the granary caught fire, and Renault, the commander who "coincidentally" happened to be nearby, immediately led the soldiers to put out the fire.
But the fire was too great, and soon several other important places, such as the supply store, the armory, and the Knights of the Silver Hand, were also on fire.
The Dwarven Musketeers and Hammer Griffin Knights soon came to their aid, and eventually Kenrito's mages had to come and cast spells, summoning streams of water to extinguish the fire.
Several commanders gathered together with gloomy faces.
The granary was very well guarded, but I didn't expect it to catch fire. It was soon discovered that several soldiers in charge of the security of the granary had been killed, and it was obvious that someone had taken the opportunity to cause chaos, and perhaps there were ghosts in the coalition army.
The Cult of the Curse died without stiffening, and then after Kel'thugad was resurrected, it was revived.
Now, after a few months of development, a large number of homeless refugees have been absorbed, tempted with immortality or even immortality, and even soldiers, merchants, nobles, and many have joined the cursed sect.
Although many members of the Cursed Sect have been identified in various countries, adding up to thousands, they are useless at all, there are too many of them.
There must also be members of the Cursed Sect in Nanhai Town, and there have been many small actions in the past few months, such as fires here and poisoning there, but the coalition forces are heavily defended, and the security of Nanhai Town is comparable to the capitals of various countries, so there have been no major problems.
Now it's such a big problem!
No one thought that this could not have happened, unless the Cursed Sect had infiltrated the upper echelons of the coalition forces, and perhaps among the few commanders present, there were members of the Cursed Sect!
It was terrible, several commanders looked at each other, and they all felt that each other was not very reliable.
Suspicion, distrust, and guard against each other.
There is already discord within the coalition forces, and cracks have emerged.
At this moment, hundreds of gargoyles suddenly appeared in the sky, as well as more than twenty frost dragons.
Because of the firefighting, many Hammerhammer Griffon Knights landed in the sky, so they couldn't detect their attack in time. Almost half of the dwarven musketeers, human archers, and Kenrito mages who were in charge of air defense also ran over to put out the fire, and there was no time to set up defenses.
Who would have thought that these gargoyles and frost dragons had been lurking in the mountains to the west for a day and a night, and had waited until now to break out!
In just five minutes, the five thousand allied troops stationed in Nanhai Town suffered heavy losses, and at least a thousand soldiers were killed at the first time, and the frost breath of the frost dragon froze a large area at a time. The coalition forces, which have lost fifty percent of their air defense, simply can't deal with so many gargoyles and frost dragons.
Although a certain soy sauce-level Kenrito archmage from Dalaran, a certain general from Ironforge Castle, and a certain lord from Eagle's Nest Mountain, quickly organized a manpower to attack the gargoyle and the frost dragon, but the haste did not have much effect.
In ten minutes, not even a single frost dragon was killed, and less than ten gargoyles were killed.
The difference in strength between a prepared and orderly unit and an unprepared and chaotic unit is too great.
The ranged attackers suffered heavy casualties, ordinary soldiers could not attack the frost dragon at all, and the gargoyle was too fast to deal with, and the entire South Sea Town was in a disaster.
A certain soy sauce archmage quickly used a spell to ask for help from Dalaran, but it also took time from organizing the manpower to teleporting to arrive, and what they lacked most now was time.
In addition, the nearest troops were stationed in Talenmere and Ambermere, and if they wanted to rush over, no matter how hurried the march was, it would take two days and two nights, and the far water could not save the near fire.
At this moment, someone on the southern coast sounded the alarm, and an undead warship docked!
Arthas, the first death knight, takes five lichs, fifty death knights, hundreds of ghouls, fifty abominations, and many more banshees, necromancers, and cavemen.
Not a single skeleton, not a single zombie.
Although there are not many of them, only a few hundred in total, these are the most elite undead, and more than half of the high-level undead in the entire city of Gilneth are here!
Who would have thought that Naxxramas was still floating in the city of Gilneth, and some frost dragons and gargoyles were still in the sky above the territory of Gilness, and 50,000 undead were encircling and hunting down the survivors of Gilness, but Arthas, with the most elite troops, unknowingly avoided the naval blockade of Kurtilas and raided the town of Nanhai!
Even so, under normal circumstances, there are no problems, after all, there are five thousand coalition troops in the entire Nanhai Town, and they are all elite troops, and even there are archmages in charge, no matter how bad it is, it can be detected in advance. Mages, archers, and musketeers are enough to deal with frost dragons and gargoyles, and other troops can also rely on artillery to keep the undead ships from docking-
Several times before the undead attacked, they did this.
This time, it was the first thing that went into chaos.
Obviously, Alsace had been prepared and premeditated for a long time!
Led by Arthas himself, these elite undead easily eliminated the Coast Guards who were in charge of the defense, and then stormed the town of Southsea.
Later, Arthas led the Death Knights, as well as the Abomination, Banshees, Ghouls, and Cavemen to slaughter the chaotic town of Southsea, while several lichs and more necromancers, protected by some of the undead, began to cast spells.
Ten minutes later, a huge beetle, nearly two stories tall, appeared in front of everyone, it was the spider demon lord Anubrekan.
Immediately after, more undead swarmed out of the teleportation array, and the originally impregnable defense line of Nanhai Town was breached in this way!
The coalition forces are still fighting against the undead in the entire territory of Nanhai Town, and several commanders have organized manpower, but they can't contain the decline no matter what.
At this time, the guards possessed by Banazar had quietly found Renault.
In the midst of the chaos, no one notices this.
A guard, and a familiar face, easily approached Renault, and then leaned in and whispered softly.
Renault's face changed, and then he ordered the others to stand by and followed Banazar to a room.
"Banazal!" Renault lowered his voice: "What did you do!" You're exposed! Lord Kel'thugad won't let you go! ”
"It doesn't matter, human. The Scourge has breached the town of Nanhai, which will soon fall, and everyone will be slaughtered and resurrected as the undead. Banazar sneered, "You joined the Cursed Sect, I didn't!" I'm not all the way with Alsace and Kel'thugad! I'm going to do my own thing now, and I'm going to ask you to borrow something. ”
"Borrow what?" Reynolds instinctively sensed that something was wrong, and immediately called for the Light.
However, it was already too late.
The Dreadlord's hand gripped his neck, and a powerful psychic force held him down.
His consciousness began to become drowsy, and the light departed from him, and he was powerless to resist, and soon went limp, but did not fall.
It was the corpse of the guard that fell.
Banazar has been possessed!
Renault has always been guarding against him, and there are always many people around him, Banazal has no way to deal with him, and he has never wanted to deal with him, because he doesn't need to, so he doesn't want to take risks.
Now there is a need and an opportunity.
"Borrowing your identity, of course, stupid dark human. Do you still want to pray for the Light? There's more darkness in your heart than the Dreadlord! ”
Banazal looked up at the north, his face gloomy: "I can't stay here, Renault's identity has been revealed, and my plan must be completed as soon as possible!" Tirisfa Monastery, I'm coming! ”
