Azeroth’s Death Track

Chapter 166 4. Dead zone. Auchinton 【37100】

The arrival of the Alliance Expeditionary Force made Tyrion vigilant, but they were only vigilant. At best, they could only be regarded as the least of all the troubles faced by the Dark Blade Knights.

5,500 people sounds like a lot, but once the sea of ​​undead sleeping in Hellfire Citadel is awakened, it will only take two charges to eliminate them.

The living will never be able to fight a war of attrition with the dead. As long as the death lord Luminas of Hellfire Citadel does not have unexpected situations, even if the expeditionary force is exhausted to the last person, they will never be able to break through the positions of the undead.

After more than a year of development, the biggest trouble facing Tyrion now comes from the second stronghold of the Dark Blade Knights besides the Dark Temple, which is far away in Auchindoun, the necropolis in Talador.

call

In the night of Talador, the huge figure of the necromantic dragon Doomknell appeared over Auchindoun. It flew through the air, bringing up a weak storm, and soon, after a few weeks of sentencing, it landed with the high lord. On the ancient platform of Auchindoun.

Tyrion jumped off from the Necromancer Dragon. He stood on the platform and looked down at the entire tomb. The area just in sight was no smaller than that of the Dark Temple. In fact, decades ago, here was Germany The burial place of the Laenei, the Draenei exiles who believe in the Holy Light will send the corpses of their clansmen to Auchindoun. The third largest city in the actual sense of the Draenei.

Not only are the dead inhabited, but many civilians live around Auchindoun as well.

Unfortunately, during the frenzy of the orcs massacring the draenei, they encountered crazy resistance from the draenei in Auchindoun. Seeing that they could not capture this majestic capital of death, they were still under the leadership of Gul'dan at that time. Council had a bad idea.

They planned to destroy it completely, so following the knowledge bestowed by the demons, the daring Warlocks of the Shadow Council carried out a call to another world under the walls of Auchindoun, but they failed.

What responded to the call was not a powerful demon, but an elemental lord from a mysterious elemental world, a sound elemental named Moore. The moment he was summoned, the berserk element tore apart the Shadow Council that was trying to control it In the face of the orcs rushing to try to kill it, Murmoor made the final resistance of the elements in madness... self-destruct.

How powerful is an elemental lord's self-destruction?

Just look at Auchinton in front of you.

Gorgeous and towering, at least 30 meters of the city wall was completely blasted, and the exquisite and solid inner wall was completely destroyed, and the traces of civilization were completely wiped out. In the palace, there is nothing left here.

Two-thirds of Auchindoun's ground buildings were destroyed in that explosion, leaving only gray and white ruins, and even one-third of the entire southern part of Talador was completely distorted. Forests and forests were destroyed, buildings razed, and all living beings, whether orcs or draenei, were torn to pieces.

After the explosion, only a piece of barren land remained, and now, this land has a new name.

The largest recruiting place of the Dark Blade Knights...the bone wilderness full of death!

Tyrion stood on the platform of the ruins of Auchindoun. The cloak behind him was fluttering in the howling wind. It seemed that some strange murmurs could be heard in the strong wind. They were not the wails of the undead wandering here.

The culprit of the Auchindoun explosion... the voice lord Mormoll, its echoes still exist in the only remaining ruins, some Warlocks of the Shadow Council hiding here tried to regain control, but after the death knights occupied After this, those orc warlocks hiding in the underground palace were completely wiped out, and even they themselves became dark warlocks of the Dark Blade Knight.

Boss, why are you here?

One of the persons in charge here, the death lord Serent, walked quickly onto the platform, stood behind Tyrion, and whispered, And without any prior notice.

I'm just here to see the situation of Auchinton, and I'm not looking for accountability. You don't need to be nervous.

Tyrion waved his hand and signaled Serent to stand beside him. He looked at the ruins below. The traces of the big explosion had been cleaned up by the silent dead. On the ground of the ruins, there were 10 The death knight's ground camp, outside the passages of the Great Tomb in four directions, is also stationed by draenei death knights riding on death thunder elephants.

The cleaned-up ruins are surrounded by undead runes and towering psychic towers. Under the influence of these runes, the concentration of death energy in the ruins of Auchindoun has always been kept at a very high level, which will make the undead It's easier to wake up, and it can also make those recruits who have just come into contact with death energy grow faster.

In addition, these runes shining with different lights that can be seen everywhere are engraved on this desolate land, shining in the dark, like a resurrected city.

Tyrion also noticed that on the edge of the ruins of Auchindoun, there stood an open-air square, where many death knights and clear-minded undead gathered there, some emotional guys were chatting, and more The undead sat silently on the chair, and some guys even ordered a glass of wine.

This is the unwritten inheritance and custom of the Dark Blade Knights. Although they can no longer taste the taste of fine wine, just like Serente once said, drinking is not to get drunk, but more to be in a calm state. The taste of reminiscing about the past... Although it will become extremely painful when awakening, this dangerous activity that is not prohibited still attracts many death knights to participate.

The conscripted recruits are receiving training on the plain not far away, and in the four large tombs underground, the dark warlocks are continuously building psychic circles. Under the will of Tyrion, these have died Guys, will work hard until the last corpse in Auchindoun is also transformed.

In fact, ignoring the various undead walking here and their weird atmosphere, the difference between this place and a human town is not very big.

The situation here looks very good. It seems that you are a qualified manager! I am not mistaken.

Tyrion expressed his sincere appreciation, and Serent smiled. As a person who followed Tyrion before his death, he knew very well that his boss had a stubborn pursuit of rules and order. Under his management, , The entire Dark Blade Knights has a clear hierarchy, all the rules are neatly outlined, and each link is supervised by a specific person.

Just like a war machine that is perfecting itself, once it is activated, all enemies standing in front of it will be completely crushed and eaten down to the bone.

Where are Yrel and Seven?

asked Tyrion again, and Serente hastily answered:

Yriel went to the Peak Forest of Arak. The arakkoa have been making a lot of noise recently. She took away the First Legion and planned to completely suppress those exiles who don't know what to do or not.

Severn is in the Seitek hall, and he is currently studying the recruitment experiment of the arakkoa.

The death knight lord pursed his lips, and said with some disgust:

It is said that great progress has been made, but I am skeptical about it. In fact, those ugly fallen people are completely unworthy of joining us. Their beaks and feathers all over their bodies, as well as their distorted and dark characters, in my opinion It looks like a monster.

But you and I both know, Serente, the true form of the high-level arakkoa is very beautiful, very beautiful, very responsible for your aesthetics and extremely powerful, you can also see the arakkoa captured in the ruins of Tongtian Peak Arrived... almost like a born spirit of the wind.

Rubbing his chin, Tyrion whispered:

They are so ugly now, only because they are cursed, if Seven's research can expel this curse... The Knights of the Dark Blade will have a powerful, elegant and sufficient air force in no time. ..”

That's the power we need!

Tyrion increased his tone, but soon, he asked another thing:

How many knights are stationed in Auchindoun now?

500 high-level knights and 1,300 low-level knights. The number of infantry used for the vanguard without much potential and unclear thinking is about 50,000.

Celent's rare report:

There are still a large number of defective products, but their strength is weak, and most of them are fragile skeletons, which can only be used in the war of attrition. Two days ago, we discovered another large buried tomb in the western part of the Wilderness of Bones. According to Seven estimates that after the conversion of the tomb, the number of lower-level knights can reach 1,500, and correspondingly, the number of infantry can reach 60,000.

This number is already astonishing. 1,500 low-level death knights appeared on the battlefield. According to the natural control of the death knights over low-level walking corpses, as long as they are willing, they can form a temporary army of more than 50,000 people in an instant.

And the 500 high-ranking knights are more proficient in manipulating death energy. They can also summon a temporary legion of more than 50,000 people, plus the well-organized First Legion taken away by Yrel, the defense force of Hellfire Citadel As well as the defenders of the Black Temple, Tyrion's order can set off a death frenzy with a number of more than 200,000 undead.

But that's not enough...

Too little!

There was a hint of worry in Tyrion's eyes:

It's too small. To cover the entire world of Draenor, 200,000 undead are not enough. You need to speed up, Celent, and the death call for the arakkoa. Tell Seven, no matter what he needs, I will Try to provide it to him, he must complete the death recruitment ceremony for the arakkoa in the shortest possible time!

We urgently need power... What about the ritual of controlling Murmoll?

Tyrion asked again, and when this question was mentioned, Celent's expression became ugly, and he replied a little bluntly:

There is no progress. The Shamans of the Broken under Akama have worked very hard, but unfortunately, they still can't control Murmoll, even if it's just an echo of an elemental lord. Once it gets rid of its shackles one day, it will It will be an oversized bomb that will blow up the Auchindoun Necropolis that we have painstakingly built in a matter of seconds.

I don't think it's the right choice for us to keep it in Auchinton.

Celent's gray eyeballs rolled, he approached Tyrion, and lowered his voice:

Maybe we can send it to Shattrath... let it explode there and take out that nasty city and that naaru! There's a great catacomb in that city too, and that'll be the second Auchington Necropolis...

This tempting suggestion made Tyrion narrow his eyes, and it could be seen that he was seriously considering the feasibility of this suggestion, but in the end, he still shook his head.

I'm not merciful to the refugee city, but in my eyes, Moore has a greater use... The broken people's exposure to the elements is too short, and they have no background, so it's normal that they can't control Momo.

Tyrion glanced to the northwest, and he said to Celent:

After I leave, you go to Glokush, let him contact those orcs in Nagrand, and find some orc shamans to help us.

Will they agree?

Celent snorted: Those orcs hate us very much. After all, we trapped them in Nagrand and exiled their warriors to Frostfire Ridge.

At least they're still alive! We could have killed them all, but we've kept them alive.

Tyrion's voice became indifferent:

Just for this, they should thank me for my kindness, and believe me, this time, those orcs will cooperate obediently, because we have an offer they can't refuse... The Dark Portal has been reopened, Sei Lunt, ask Glokush to tell the Matriarch Gaiaan that if she still cares about the future of those young orcs, she should seriously consider cooperating with us.

The door of darkness opened?

There was a hint of surprise in Celent's hollow voice: Will those orcs come back? Are we preparing for war?

They have taken root in Azeroth, life in the New World is much better than in Draenor...and even if they come back, we can drive them back!

Lord Darkblade smiled, and waved his hand to recall the death knell of the necromantic dragon hovering in the sky. He jumped on the back of the necromantic dragon, pulled the reins, and said to Celent:

Remember what I said, after I come back, I hope to see new developments in Auchinton!

Where are you going? Boss.

Serent looked at the death knell that took off. He stretched out his hand to press down the blown hair, and shouted loudly: Do you need me to send some people to protect you?

Let your knights prepare for war, Serente...don't be too immersed in the memories of the past, and then take care of Auchindoun for me. Once the order is issued, you must rush to Hellfire Peninsula as quickly as possible. ...

Tyrion waved to Celent:

As for me, I'm going to the Spiers of Arak. The war with the Arakkoa has lasted too long, and it's time to end it!
