Chapter 279 encounter
The wilderness of the Eastern Kingdom is beautiful, but it is not a good place to visit. Because every minute of this wilderness is filled with deadly crises.
In just one day or so, Lin Xuan and Hermione had experienced no less than ten attacks from wild beasts. Three of them Lin Xuan felt the aura of evil energy.
Fel energy is the power of the demon, and strength is one aspect. The most important thing is that this thing is extremely corrosive. Didn’t you see that the whole world of Drano died at the hands of Fel energy? And the most important thing is that behind the Fel energy, the piles of big-name demons made Lin Xuan feel afraid. At present, there is no plan to confront those guys head-on.
The villains in the monster are not the funny villains in movies and TV dramas who often die from talking too much or are entangled with literary youths. Those demons with names are all masters of conspiracy and intrigue. They use all kinds of deception, bewitching, and seduction. Even if they are as strong as the Burning Legion, they will never be forward-looking.
Fortunately, the Burning Legion has not yet fully started the invasion plan. This means that the eyes of most big bosses have not yet shifted to this continent. So Lin Xuan can still move.
Humans in World of Warcraft have a long history. Although the rules have not developed a technological revolution dominated by electricity, it does not mean that the world is behind. Look at the gorgeous city of Stormwind City. This is not the magical world of medieval civilization level. It is a capital with feudal civilizations that have developed to its limits.
The city walls that are dozens of meters high, huge blue and white gates, and thousands of huge rocks paved into a city avenue of more than twenty meters. The mottled stone roads did not make the city look even more outdated. Instead, they added the weight of history to her.
What is the fusion of culture? Stormwind will give you the most intuitive feeling. This is one of the few cities in the eastern kingdom that allows multiple races to live together. High elves, half elves, night elves, and dwarves are living openly from this city.
Look at the armor on the soldiers in the city. Those exquisite and gorgeous stripes, even the earth in the industrial age, probably can only do that. Most soldiers wear light armor because they have not experienced war for a long time. The biggest function of the patrol team is to capture thieves or maintain public order during grand festivals.
"Civilization, only in the long-lasting peace can it bloom the most beautiful light. However, once peace is long, barbarism will rise and then trample on civilization. Therefore, the more brilliant civilization is, the more flashy it is."
Along the way, Hermione had heard the teacher's sigh more than once. It seemed that after entering this world, she became a little sentimental.
A team of soldiers passed by them and walked out of the city. Lin Xuan frowned because the team of soldiers were wearing heavy armor. This means that they were performing actual combat missions.
"Hermione, you keep up with them."
Lin Xuan did not leave the city together. He shuttled back and forth freely in Storm City and finally came to a special market.
Each city has its own dark side. The black market is the most representative place. The more prosperous the city, the dark side will expand. The two complement each other. Lin Xuan is currently in a similar place.
A somewhat remote street is lined with all kinds of goods, from wild beast fur to swords, guns, bows and arrows, and even muskets produced by dwarves, as well as various unknown medicinal materials, ores and other things. It looks no different from other markets.
But if you look closely at the transactions here, you will find that many buyers do not come for the goods. They will use some ambiguous words to talk, and then get up and enter the building behind the vendor. Since it is a black market, the most valuable goods are of course intelligence.
Lin Xuan stopped in front of a small shop selling weapons.
"I'm sorry I don't understand your rules. But I still hope to make a deal with you. So do you convey it to me? I need some information services."
"What?"
"It's news."
"I don't sell news here, I only sell weapons. This is a standard two-handed sword from the Paladin of Stormwind City. It's absolutely genuine. It took a lot of effort to get it. Do you want to have one? For adventurers, nothing is more trustworthy than a sharp long sword."
Lin Xuan, "...Okay, sorry, I can only change the way."
In the dense forest east of Stormwind City, a team of knights were shuttled through the jungle. Not long ago, they received news that an outer post was attacked and all guards were killed. A passing hunter reported the matter. This time they went to the post to confirm the authenticity of the matter.
Although Stormwind City has not experienced war for many years, the soldiers' basic skills are still good. At least they are superb riding skills. The twelve knights walked all the way and soon approached the position of the post.
"All people pay attention, we are close to the attack point. Dismount now and walk forward." The leader of the captain issued an order. But just as his words were said, the war horse suddenly roared uneasyly, and then he turned around on the spot, and his emotions became extremely anxious. The captain was stunned at first, and then he realized.
"Be careful, the enemy attack." As soon as the words fell, a giant wolf rushed out from the side and directly threw the captain Renren and horse to the ground. On the body of the giant wolf, a strong orc man with green skin jumped down, waved the giant axe in his hand, and neatly cut off the captain's head.
After a brief panic, the remaining knights fought with their swords. The orcs carried the captain's head and roared to the sky, as if they were some kind of attack horn. The surrounding dense forest shook, and thirty wolf cavalry rushed out of the dense forest and rushed towards the remaining knights frantically.
Eleven knights waved their whip to keep themselves in a state of movement to avoid being double-teamed by the enemy, and at the same time pulled out the dwarf musket on their bodies.
The orcs from another world obviously had never seen such a strange weapon. They did not make any evasion. After a burst of rapid gunpowder burst, at least four orcs fell under the musket. But this not only did not scare the orcs, but instead aroused their bloodthirstyness even more.
Due to the limitation of craftsmanship, the Knights' dwarf muskets are all single shots. The Knights on the war horse obviously have no time to load ammunition. They can only draw out their long swords to prepare for horse battle.
The war horses are far less flexible than usual when threatened by giant wolves. The average combat power of human soldiers is far less than that of orcs. In addition, this team of wolf cavalry can be said to be the elite among the elites in the orc tribe. Therefore, the battle situation is instantly overturned.
Knights were constantly thrown to the ground, then their heads were cut off and torn to pieces by giant wolves. The remaining soldiers had given up their resistance and thought about how to escape. The orc wolf cavalry regarded all this as hunting. They were not in a hurry to kill these soldiers, but were just enjoying the fear of their prey before they died.
Just when all the soldiers were desperate, a turning point appeared. A golden stream of light crossed the sky and quickly turned into a beautiful human girl. The knight looked back and saw the girl blocking the wolf cavalry chasing behind her.
"Does go away." A knight was about to speak, but saw a mysterious light flashing in the girl's hands.
