Nightmare flew south for a day and a night, and finally came to Fort Riptide. ◢ With * dream * small ◢.1a

Stopping on the peak of the western part of Riptide Castle, Jiang Zao looked at the ancient city not far away and was full of emotion.

Fort Rapids is the oldest city of mankind, the capital of the ancient Alaso Empire, and has witnessed the glory of mankind for 3,000 years.

However, with the division of the Araso Empire and the juxtaposition of the seven kingdoms of mankind, Fort Riptide has lost its former glory and has become the only city of the "Stormgard Kingdom" among the seven kingdoms.

Stormgard, the world-famous cavalry unit of this kingdom, is listed alongside the Storm Knights and the Iron Horse Brotherhood in the south, but during World War II, when the orcs came from the south all the way north to the continent of Lordaeron, this oldest country bore the first among them, suffered heavy casualties and lost more than half, and made an indelible contribution to the victory of World War II.

Stormgard has been in a state of collapse since then, and has not even been able to get the fruits of the victory he deserves: the kingdom of Solas wants to get the eastern part of the kingdom of Alterac, and as a result, the kingdom of Alterac has all been annexed to Lordaeron, and no one knows what happened in it, and Terenus's appearance is not ordinarily ugly.

During World War II, the orcs brought a lot of ogres from the planet Draenor, and some of the "Stonefist ogres" stayed in the "Stonefist Outpost" in the north of Fort Riptide after the war, threatening the safety of Fort Riptide at all times, directly causing the "Northford Farm" in the north to be abandoned, and now it has fallen into the hands of the Syndicate.

Two years ago, during one campaign after another campaign to free the orcs, Grand Chief Orgrim was killed in an orc camp in the east and buried on the spot. Some of the orcs volunteered to stay, built an orc town there, Hammertown, and recently captured Geshak Farm.

And the indigenous people of this land, the deadwood trolls, have occupied the southeastern region since ancient times, and no one is allowed to enter.

Although the entire Arathi Highlands is nominally the territory of Stormgard, in fact, the area that Fort Riptide can control is less than one-third, and the land area is not even comparable to that of the once small mountain country "Alterac".

The orcs and deadwood trolls in the east often invaded the farms there, putting a lot of pressure on Fort Riptide, and the few remaining elite troops in Fort Riptide had to be stationed in the "Valley of Refuge" in the center for a long time to ensure the safety of nearby farms.

Fort Riptide, which originally did not have many troops, had even weaker defense capabilities, and had no ability to exterminate the Stone Fist ogres and syndicates in the north, but was often harassed and attacked by ogres and syndicates.

The whole Riptide Castle was in chaos and the hearts of the people were in turmoil, so more and more people left the city and made their way through the walls of Soladin to the hills of Hillsbrad to survive.

Before World War II, Fort Riptide had 100,000 inhabitants, but now there are less than 30,000 left, not even the town of Talenmere.

This is the current situation of this ancient city, which is miserable.

Solas was one of the most powerful human warriors and the most courageous commanders of the army during World War II, almost on a par with Marshal Lothar, but he was not a worthy king and was clearly incapable of governing the country.

Prince Garin is not a capable prince either, otherwise how could he be controlled by the Dreadlord Desailok and kill his father?

Now Fort Rapids is in danger.

The only way to break the game is to find a way to force Desailok to reveal his true identity, and then kill him, so that everyone in Riptide Castle knows that King Solas is dead and that Prince Garin has killed his father.

Then, integrate all the people of Riptide Castle, clear the syndicate, defend against foreign enemies, and then clear the Stone Fist ogre, the deadwood troll, and the Falling Hammer Orcs step by step, and completely solve the hidden danger.

However, it is not easy.

Jiang Zheng couldn't rush in directly to deal with Desairok, that would be too stupid.

He had to figure out the specific situation of the city first, and figure out the current situation.

Then, he had to find someone first.

After a simple disguise, Jiang Zai infiltrated Riptide Castle, and soon found Carlos, a high-ranking member of the Assassin Regiment who had already arrived here, according to the special mark of the Lordaeron Assassin Regiment.

"What? King Solas was killed by Prince Garin? The current King of Solas is pretended to be the Dreadlord Desailo? ”

Carlos apparently didn't find this level, and looked surprised.

But soon, he patted his head and remembered something: "My lord, three days ago in the middle of the night, I saw Prince Garin quietly come to the royal underground cemetery in the northeast, and dismissed everyone, and stayed in it for a full hour, before he ran out in a panic, full of fear, as if he had seen something terrible. I wanted to dive inside, but there was a lot of magic to protect it, so I couldn't get in. ”

The Royal Underground Cemetery?

Jiang Zai's heart moved, and he remembered one thing.

In Jiang Zheng's memory, although there was no temptation from Desairok, Prince Garin still killed King Solas and buried King Solas in the royal underground cemetery, along with "Tokaral", the legendary sword of Ignaeus Torbairn.

At that time, if you wanted to enter the underground cemetery, you had to collect four sigils: the Soladin sigil, the Alator sigil, the Torbean sigil and the Ignaeus sigil, and the four sigils were combined to form a complete sigil in order to break the protective magic barrier of the tomb and take out Tokaral.

Jiang Zai once heard Patriarch Alex mention that in the underground cemetery here, not only members of the Torbaine family are buried, but also members of the ancient royal family of the Alaso Empire. In addition to Soladin the Great, all the successive emperors of Araso were buried here, guarded by powerful magic, which is normal.

Of course, now those four sigils should be in the hands of Prince Garin, otherwise he would not have been able to enter the underground cemetery.

What was he doing in the cemetery late at night?

Could it be that he felt guilty and went to confess to King Soras? Confess that you shouldn't have killed your father?

Does such a person still feel guilty?

So it seems that the body of King Solas has actually been buried in the underground cemetery, and has not been desecrated by Deserock?

If that's the case, Prince Garin doesn't seem to have completely fallen either, at least keeping King Soras's body!

Is it because of guilt, it seems to be because of fear, or because of that little bit of conscience and affection that is hidden deep in the heart, just like Arthas?

"If King Soras's body is still there......"

Jiang Zao's eyes lit up: "Carlos, take me to the cemetery, let's go to King Soras!" ”
