Chapter 927: Goodbye Sarah
Danas was a smart man, and Leo never doubted it.
Like this time, he may have sensed something from Scarlett, so he found an opportunity to deliberately let Leo discover something.
Deliberately?
That's right, it's on purpose!
At the time, the conversation with Danas seemed to be accidental, but when I think about it, it was more like Danas was deliberately sending some kind of message to Leo.
Rubbing his eyebrows, Leo felt that it was not his own ordinary headache.
Obviously, Scarlett's suspicions about Danas have long been seen through by this sophisticated marshal, and he may not have much scruples about Scarlett Danas, but he is different about Leo.
Scarlett has been trained as an orthodox paladin since she was a child, and growing up in the Cathedral of Light, she has no dark thoughts and is not ruthless enough, which is the complete opposite of Leo.
Also with a deep suspicion of a person, Danas dares to guarantee that Scarlett will not act without conclusive evidence, can he guarantee that Leo will not act?
There's a saying that it's better to kill than to let go, and for Scarlett's safety, Leo doesn't mind using some extraordinary means, and that's what Danas worries about.
In the past, he may not have been afraid, but after Leo became a demigod and successfully killed the blood god Haka, Danas had to think about it, and after witnessing the strength of Leo's Shinestra, Flintag, Sindra and other subordinates in the battle of Galadar, Danas was even more frightened.
From this, there is also the scene where he talks to Leo.
With all sorts of thoughts spinning in his head, Leo followed Scarlett and the others into the upwind trail.
At the end of the Windwind Trail, where the quiet twilight forest meets the reed-covered swamp of sorrow, is the Windwind Trail, once home to the last guardian Medivan.
As the best and greatest mage in Terran history, Medivan also possessed a vast and benevolent heart, and the Karazan he founded once made the Windward Trail a land of bounty, but all of this was destroyed when he was possessed by Sargeras's spirit.
Sargeras took control of Medivan's body, opened the dark door, and brought the orcs into this world, where the once rich land was reduced to ruins and the once prosperous towns were left in ruins, abandoned bones and weeping ghosts indicting the atrocities of the orcs and warning of the evils of war.
What was once a prosperous place is now only a desolate and rocky barren scene, which cannot but make people feel that war brings not only hatred, but also endless sorrow.
"There's a battle here, and it won't take more than two days, so we'll have to be careful."
As he was walking, Danas suddenly reminded him, and the atmosphere gradually became tense.
The Upwind Trail is a place where few people come, and who are the people fighting here?
The question was answered quickly.
The dragon lich who had been released to investigate the situation sent a message to Leo, and just a few dozen miles ahead of them, a group of human soldiers was besieging a group of ogres, and if there were no accidents, the traces of the battle that Danas found should be left behind.
Humans and ogres, needless to say, know which side Leo will help.
Let's take a look at who Leo and his party are: Kael'thas, Leah Delin, Romans, Danas, Khadgar, Scarlett, and Leo himself, such a lineup is so gorgeous that it can blind the dog's eyes of countless ogres, and it is not too easy to deal with a group of ogres.
When Leo and them joined, the battle ended quickly, to be precise, it should not be called joining, but it should be said to be meddling, Kael'thas and the others did not make a move, just watched the two-headed dragon lich under Leo kill the ogre, and crushed this group of ogres into slag with absolute strength.
The battle was so short that the human soldiers fighting the ogres could not react, and they never imagined that such a powerful mechanical puppet would appear in the headwind trail. Fortunately, the non-commissioned officer who led the team was sharp-eyed and found Leo and his party as soon as he woke up.
"Ah...... You're Lord Leo! ”
Seeing Leo, the non-commissioned officer who led the team ran over in surprise, and Leo looked at each other with a puzzled expression, until she took off her helmet Leo suddenly realized that this non-commissioned officer was none other than Sarah, who had crossed paths with him in Nightlight Town.
Sarah is Morgan. Raddie Moore's daughter, speaking of Leo's paladin clone thanks to her father.
"It's Miss Sarah, how did you get to the upwind trail?"
In Leo's memory, Sarah was a night watchman in Nightlight Town, I don't know when she entered the army, and Leo also sensed a thin power of holy light from her, it seems that Sarah has received a response from the holy light, although the strength is weak, but as long as you are willing to practice hard, it is not difficult to become a real paladin.
This Sarah can be regarded as a daughter inheriting her father's business.
Whether you become a paladin, you can also have the power to protect yourself in this chaotic world.
"Your Excellency, you don't have to be so polite, just call me Sarah." Sarah said and lowered her voice, "The kingdom has received news that there is an anore tribe in the upwind trail, and I was ordered to come and check it out. ”
There are ogres on the upwind trail, which Leo knows, and what makes him curious is the reason for the anogre that has settled for years in this place where birds don't lay eggs.
Able to attract all the armies of the Stormwind Kingdom, the ogre's actions will not be small.
Seeing that there was a hint of inquiry in Leo's eyes, Sarah did not hesitate, but her voice was lowered.
"The ogres of the upwind trail don't know what's going on lately, and they actually have migrated to the Swamp of Sorrow, and our connection with the Cursed Land has been greatly disturbed due to the actions of these ogres, and the kingdom suspects that this is behind the orcs."
The Headwind Trail connects the Swamp of Sorrow to the Twilight Forest, the hinterland of the Stormwind Kingdom, and the Swamp of Sorrow must be passed to get to the Cursed Lands. In order to keep an eye on the Dark Gate in the Cursed Lands, and to prevent the demons of the Cursed Lands from causing trouble, the Alliance has stationed a large army in the Cursed Lands and built a huge castle, the Watchkeep.
The Ogre of the Upwind Trail will not only make the Twilight Forest nervous, but it will also affect the Watchtower, and the Stormwind Kingdom will not wait to ignore it. What's more, now is the time when the Alliance is quietly gathering forces and preparing to bypass the Dark Gate and enter the world of Draenor to develop new resource areas.
In the case of Leo and Varian, who would also suspect that someone had leaked the news, the Horde took action when they learned that the Alliance was able to bypass the Dark Gate and enter Draenor.
"I see."
Leo nodded, in fact, he thought so too, otherwise the ogre of the upwind trail had been here for so many years, why didn't he move at other times but at this time? If the Horde did know about the Alliance's plans, something would happen in the Cursed Lands.
Once the cursed land is in trouble, the alliance can't stay out of it, you must know that the last lord Kazak and the demon king Ratherek who guard the dark gate are not idle people, if they didn't have two brushes, they would have been pushed by the alliance and the tribe's powerhouses, how could they be at large in the cursed land for so many years, it seems that the action in Draeno is going to speed up.
Sarah's information to Leo was not unimportant, allowing him to avoid being caught off guard by the Horde.
"Leo, who is this ......?"
Scarlett, who had finished treating the wounded soldiers, walked over, and although the paladin already knew Sarah's name, she asked anyway out of politeness, after all, it was rude to eavesdrop on other people's conversations, even though Scarlett didn't do it voluntarily.
"This is Sarah, the Silver Hand Paladin Morgan. Laddy Moore's daughter. ”
Leo's words caused a stir, and the soldiers led by Sarah reacted very quickly, and it was obvious that they did not know Sarah's identity.
The Knights of the Silver Hand have a high reputation in the Alliance, and if Sarah had revealed her identity, she would certainly be more than Master Chief now, but she didn't do that. From this, it can be seen that this female warrior who is expected to become a paladin does not want to rely on the prestige of her father. This approach was very much appreciated by Leo.
The most important thing for people is to rely on themselves, if they blindly rely on their parents, what is the difference between them and those despised second generations?
Leo looks down on the most is the kind of guy who has no ability and thinks he is proud, and when he gets into trouble, he opens his mouth and closes his mouth, my dad is a so-and-so guy.
To describe it in a certain sentence is: What's so great about the second generation, you really have the ability to be the second generation of his father.
"Hello, I'm Scarlett."
Hearing that Sarah's father was a knight of the Silver Hand Paladins, Scarlett's face was grim, and she didn't have the same casualness as before.
It is difficult for outsiders to understand the respect that human paladins have for the Knights of the Silver Hand, at least Leo.
"The ogre on the Upwind Trail has moved to threaten not only the Twilight Forest, but also the Overwatch Castle, so we'll have to help Saracha find out."
As Leo spoke, a dragon lich screwed several ogre-mages who were not yet dead to his side.
Leo doesn't understand the ogre's language, and these ogres won't cooperate with Leo, but that doesn't prevent him from getting the information he wants from the ogre, as a warlock, Leo has a way to communicate with the ogre, and a way to get what he thinks is useful from the ogre.
Countless examples have long proven that even if you die in front of a warlock, you don't want to keep your secret, and these ogres are no exception.
When Leo searched for the information he wanted from the souls of several ogres, he frowned, he was really afraid of something, it seemed that the news that the Alliance had a way to bypass the Dark Gate and enter Draenor had indeed leaked.
"Sarah, you can go back on your errand. There is indeed a tribe behind the ogre movement of the Upwind Trail, and the final destination of these ogres is Stoneard in the Swamp of Sorrow. ”
