Chapter 451 Curiosity Harms the Necromancer
Chapter 451 Curiosity Harms the Necromancer
No one speaks up for the Scarlet Crusade, and their voices are ignored, because they have lost their homeland... Lordaeron.
The Scarlet Crusade are like stray dogs, everyone bullies them...
Their deaths were their destiny...
The remaining Scarlet Crusaders had a strong will to survive, but their enemies were even stronger...
Who made it so that the first enemy Lorraine encountered upon waking up was the Scarlet Crusade?
Aside from trolls, Syndicate bandits, and insectoid creatures, the Scarlet Crusade warriors were the most unlucky, getting attacked wherever they went...
They believe in the Holy Light, but in reality, they are merely toys of the Blood God...
What a miserable word.
......
Our camera zooms back to Atonement Island...
The commander of the Crimson Fleet, who was on patrol in the open sea when they were suddenly attacked, finally received support from Southsea Town.
He made contact with the griffin messenger sent by Master Yuvel.
Latest intelligence indicates that the Undercity fleet does not need to be pursued; the Kul Tiran fleet and Gilnean forces will continue to ambush and surround them along the Northern River Valley...
Until the Forgotten Ones' naval forces are completely annihilated.
The squadron roaming the open sea was a decoy deliberately laid out by Admiral Barry, the commander of the Scarlet Fleet, to force the main fleet of Undercity to return from Silvermoon City to defend the waters near Lordaeron.
General Barry, Jaina, and the newly appointed Alliance Vanguard Cavalry Marshal Marcus, among others, have even bigger plans...
This time, no one could possibly leak the information, so the attack was directed at the previously discovered hidden port...Whispering Forest.
The human race decided to launch a surprise attack on Undercity.
The plan is to seize the nearby islands and establish outposts and supply ports.
We are prepared to turn the tide of the war in one fell swoop and completely eliminate the thorns that the tribes have planted in the northern part of the Eastern Kingdom.
......
Therefore, the main objective of the allied forces in South Sea Town is now to target Redemption Island.
The primary objective is to land on Redemption Island to rescue people, while also uncovering the truth behind the earthquake and dealing with the traitorous Hillsbrads mayor, Paul, and his associates.
Captain Terra shared a secret with Yuvel that mentioned the Black Iron Treasure, Garin, and information about the rebels.
There is also a secret altar of a cult on the island...
Terra's intention was to provoke the Silver Covenant into sending Alliance forces to support her.
The secrets conveyed by the Dragonhawk Knights forced Master Yuvel of Southshore to take them seriously.
He was curious about what the blood elf mages from the Sunreavers Temple were up to on the Isle of Atonement.
Under the cover of dwarven flying vehicles and griffin thunder riders, Master Yuvel's men braved the raging waves, rowing their small boats, desperately making their way towards Atonement Island...
If Lorraine knew that these humans were desperately approaching this dangerous and eerie deserted island, he would probably be both amused and exasperated...
At that moment, he was only focused on escaping, but unexpectedly, someone from the alliance was rushing to his death...
After the Dark Tide Navy of Undercity withdrew, the battlefield on the right side of the sea temporarily ceased.
Human ships and small boats approached Redemption Island one after another, and the dark cloud directly in front of the island also seemed to be moving rapidly towards it...
The path of bones on the sea became increasingly clear, and ghouls poured into the island along it...
The tiny island of atonement immediately became overcrowded.
A corner of the island was shrouded in a green, poisonous fog... Apart from the foolish red-haired ghoul, Lorraine and the few lucky surviving humans wisely turned tail and ran...
Lorraine judged the wind direction, walked with her back to the wind, and quickly escaped the threat...
Lieutenant Leylan, the Sword of Tranquility, and his companions also fled towards the Southshore coast. They had already spotted the familiar dwarven flying vehicles and flocks of griffin riders battling the ghouls in the sky...
Rayleigh and the others saw hope...
I'm preparing to get to the beach as soon as possible to meet up with my people.
......
Lorraine realized that human reinforcements were arriving soon, but the Dark Tide Navy of Undercity had already retreated...
Miss Terra's Sunreaker squad is in a potentially dangerous situation if they encounter the murloc naga golems she left behind, in the direction the enemy might land...
But he didn't want to go back and be controlled by others.
The holy light above grew stronger, illuminating a small portion of the island like a divine miracle, as if griffin riders had descended...
This is not a good sign!
Whether to flee or fight, a decision still needs to be made.
.....
"The Sword of Tranquility" and others originally thought that the Plaguebringer Lorraine was dead.
As they dodged the green poisonous fog, they brushed past each other, too shocked to react in time...
The Crimson Mage Jordan pointed at Lorraine's departing figure, his voice trembling with fear.
"He...he...he! He's still alive..."
......
Wearing a heavy armored helmet with bull horns, 'Blade of Light' Herod pretended not to see anything and led the way in fleeing towards the location of Terra and the others.
Lieutenant Rayleigh, the "Sword of Tranquility," had a complex expression.
He couldn't understand whether Lorraine was an enemy or a friend.
Lorraine's actions and magic were all imbued with an evil aura, yet she had undeniably indirectly helped several people...
Rayleigh wasn't stupid; he knew perfectly well that if it weren't for Lorraine, none of them would have survived to this day.
The horde of red-haired ghouls was indeed terrifying; they had already withstood countless waves of attacks and were covered in wounds.
The remaining members of Rayleigh and his companions were nearing the end of their strength, clinging on only by instinct.
Compared to the Faceless Ones we encountered at the Hell Altar, the ghouls are truly insignificant...
Compared to the direct threat posed by the oncoming green poisonous fog, the Faceless Ones are nothing...
Several brave warriors took off running... away from a small portion of the poisonous sea fog that had been drawn in...
Although the green poisonous fog was thin in this part of the island, its power was still astonishing... The green fog enveloped a low-lying corner of the right bank of the island... The remains in the cemetery here were completely melted... leaving no trace.
Living things instinctively retreat.
......
The upturned part of the cliff perfectly blocks the green mist, making the leeward side of the bay the best location...
Lorraine also dodged the green mist, but this time he didn't run towards Captain Terra. Instead, he chose to approach the direction of the dark clouds over the sea directly opposite Atonement Island.
He seems to have found the source of the ghouls on the island...
A white line stretched from the dark cloud to the island. Lorraine wanted to see what it was...
"Alas, curiosity killed the cat."
The bad habit of watching a spectacle, a common Eastern custom passed down from teacher to student, is really not a good one...
Lorraine noticed the strange phenomenon at sea and immediately felt uneasy.
As he drew closer to the dark cloud, Lorraine felt the rune in his right eye become so excited it seemed to want to fly out of its socket...
In the realm of truth, Lorraine saw countless vengeful spirits sweeping in from the sea, only to be swallowed by his own runic right eye.
This is an extremely bad sign.
Even when harvesting vengeful spirits for my own use, in the past I would actively absorb and transform them, then exploit a bug to revive the skeleton army...
The rune on the right eye is now intelligent... it absorbs automatically.
What does this mean!
The Ultimate Necromancer Rune has been upgraded?
Is the will of the undead awakening once more?
Or is it the plague that has taken over?
