My Rebirth and the Strange Adventure of Black Zhen
Chapter 362: Turbulence in Bathory Castle (Part )
Halduron was still a relative novice on the day Ranger-General Lireesa Windrunner gathered the kingdom's finest rangers to witness the rite of passage for her successor. He often took time to greet Sylvanas and Vereesa, who were too young to be trained as Farstriders. When the wife of Veles, the head of House Windrunner, went into labor, Halduron rode his dragonhawk and brought Vereesa back to her family's spire to greet the birth of the newborn.
In the years that followed, Halduron and his close friends and comrades, Lor'themar Theron and Sylvanas, became so close that the three became known among their fellow high elves as "the trio": optimistic Halduron, thoughtful Lor'themar, and playful Sylvanas.
When the heroic Ranger-General Lireesa Windrunner and her husband fell in Eastweald, Halduron threw himself into the initial investigation, ensuring that the bodies of the heroes were returned home safe and sound. He then immediately attended the crucial ceremony of selecting a successor to the Ranger-General at Farstrider's Retreat.
In this fierce competition, Halduron deeply agrees with Lor'themar's high praise for Sylvanas. Although some people firmly believe that Alleria Windrunner is a more qualified candidate, Halduron has always stood firmly on Sylvanas' side and spared no effort to argue for her election. Because he knows that the infighting between Alleria and Lireesa has already caused the Farstriders to fall apart. Even if the older heir of Windrunner eventually takes charge of the seal, Halduron will serve him wholeheartedly. However, it was Sylvanas's noble qualities that made her resolutely shoulder this heavy responsibility that should not have been borne by her.
Shortly thereafter, Halduron expressed his opposition to the decision to accept Nathanos Marris into the Farstriders. In his opinion, such a decision was not a wise one and might even intensify the conflict and lead to more disputes. However, Sylvanas remained firm in her opinion and remained unshakable.
Under pressure from Sylvanas, Halduron admitted Nathanos Marris into the Farstriders.
When the Amani trolls allied with the Old Horde and launched a massive attack on Quel'Thalas, Halduron, a high elf Farstrider, was devoted to his homeland. He cleverly disguised himself as an old elf wearing a cloak and holding a cane, but he did not expect that a group led by a troll named Trigi was approaching him quietly.
However, at the critical moment, Halduron quickly removed his disguise, turned the tide of the battle with amazing speed and launched a counterattack. He swung his sword and knocked the enemy to the ground as fast as lightning; then he threw his spear hard and pierced Trigi accurately in mid-air.
Soon after, an old friend of Halduron, Alleria Windrunner, also found his trail. With her extraordinary eloquence, Alleria successfully persuaded King Anasterian to send troops to resist the invading enemy. So, she immediately issued an order: Halduron was required to join the Ranger General reinforcements under her sister Sylvanas and be responsible for setting up an ambush in the forest to attack the enemy.
After receiving the order, Halduron did not hesitate to embark on the journey with his companions, and also joined the ranger team led by his best friend Lor'themar Theron to join the support army. During the Second War, Halduron was appointed as a lieutenant.
Soon after the orcs gave up the fierce battle, King Anasterian issued an order without hesitation to send a group of skilled and respected priests and powerful and mysterious wizards to join the Farstriders. These brave and fearless volunteers quickly integrated into the team and became a solid and reliable backing for the Farstriders.
At the same time, Halduron and his companions were fortunate to receive generous help from Baroness Liadrin. This noble and wise lady not only provided valuable advice and support, but also gave them endless courage and confidence. At this critical moment, a surprising trophy appeared in front of Halduron - Zul'jin, the chieftain of the Amani! The once majestic chieftain was in trouble at the moment, separated from his people, and trapped by the blazing dragon's breath flames.
Halduron and his well-trained, agile rangers displayed amazing agility and courage, striking quickly and ruthlessly to kill Zul'jin's companions and successfully imprison the chieftain. This series of actions was as smooth and natural as flowing water, fully demonstrating their excellent combat skills and tacit cooperation.
However, just as the flames prevented Zul'jin from reuniting with his troll companions, something unfortunate happened: Halduron also lost his vital connection with Sylvanas.
There was no other choice at this moment! The elves acted quickly and worked together to build a simple temporary camp. Filled with anger and hatred, they mercilessly surrounded the captured chieftain and started a violent beating.
In the countless fierce battles with Zul'jin in the past, many brave and fearless Halduron Rangers died, and their friends or loved ones also left them. These painful experiences made Halduron hate Zul'jin to the core. So he personally directed and participated in the torture of Zul'jin.
However, the cruel and bloody scene before her eyes was unbearable for Liadrin. She was anxious and tried her best to persuade Halduron to give up this torture method and directly execute the hateful chieftain to end his evil deeds. But Halduron was firm and said that he had no right to make such a decision.
In fact, in addition to the superficial reasons, Halduron has another motive hidden deep in his heart. Many years ago, when he was captured by Zul'jin, he suffered inhuman torture and abuse. Now, he wants to keep Zul'jin alive so that Lor'themar can finally decide his fate, as a revenge for the suffering he suffered that year.
Not long after, a well-equipped and well-trained Amani assault team appeared on the battlefield like a force descended from the sky. Their purpose of coming this time was to rescue the chief who was trapped here.
However, at this moment, Halduron was suddenly seriously injured - an extremely sharp spear pierced his body straight through! Liadrin, who was standing by, was extremely anxious, but she still tried to remain calm and immediately cast a healing spell to try her best to treat the injured Halduron. After some efforts, Halduron finally turned the corner and his injuries were healed. Then, Liadrin quickly picked up the spear on the ground and threw it out with force. The spear flew out like an arrow and landed far away.
Halduron regained his spirits and led his brave rangers to continue the fierce battle. But what was unexpected was that the trolls, who were originally aggressive, actually fled in all directions. It turned out that these trolls did not come here to rescue their chieftain. Their real purpose was actually only one: to help Zul'jin escape!
In a flash, Zul'jin cut off his left arm without hesitation, holding the spear that nearly killed Halduron, and fled the scene. Since that day, Halduron has always been upset about this incident, because Zul'jin's life and death were in his hands at the time, but in the end he still escaped. Whenever Halduron recalled this experience, he would fall into deep self-blame and regret.
In the early stages of the Scourge's surging invasion of Azeroth, the brave and fearless General Halduron led his elite troops and resolutely stationed in the dangerous and unknown land at the southern end of the Ghostlands.
Late one night, when Halduron was patrolling the camp as usual, he suddenly received news: a mysterious army of resurrected elven guards was quietly approaching them! These once loyal guards have now become puppets controlled by evil forces, with strange red light flashing in their eyes and a breath of death all over their bodies.
Faced with such a powerful enemy, Halduron was fearless and rushed to the enemy camp. After a hard and thrilling battle, he finally succeeded in rescuing Lor'themar, who was trapped and seriously injured. Unfortunately, his left eye was also severely damaged in the fierce battle and became blind forever. Not only that, those extremely hateful enemies also brutally killed Lor'themar's defenseless troops.
It turned out that the reason why Halduron came here was because he saw that the crystals hidden in Anowyn and Anteras were abnormal. These three precious crystals were the core energy source supporting the powerful defense barrier of Silvermoon City! At this moment, they were all stolen!
The situation was extremely critical! Halduron and Lor'themar rushed back to the capital without taking a break, but it was too late... Although the two of them killed a necromancer who was hiding in the dark and waiting for an opportunity to attack, it was just a drop in the bucket for the entire battle.
Finally, in that extremely tragic battle, Ranger General Sylvanas, known as the "Guardian of Silvermoon City", was ruthlessly betrayed and died tragically at the hands of the inhumane and corrupt Prince Arthas. With the death of this great woman, the high elf Farstriders were suddenly left leaderless and at a loss.
Halduron led a search party to look for survivors and successfully brought them to the relative safety of the Garden Market, the only area of Silvermoon City that was regained control.
Soon after, Prince Kael'thas finally returned to the war-torn Quel'Thalas. Halduron pledged his all to the prince, offering his assistance in destroying the evil-tainted Sunwell. Halduron was one of twenty brave elven volunteers who rushed to the island, desperate to reach their destination before the Amani trolls could seize the power of the tainted waters.
After a thrilling battle, Kael'thas successfully destroyed the Sunwell, thus saving the high elves from extinction and depravity. However, a strange phenomenon began to spread among the elves - due to long-term dependence on magic and the sudden loss of the source, many elves suffered from severe withdrawal symptoms and were drowsy all day.
After returning to Silvermoon City, Kael'thas reorganized the surviving tribesmen and named them "Blood Elves". He appointed Lor'themar as regent to manage state affairs; at the same time, Halduron took over Sylvanas's position as the Ranger General of Silvermoon City and the leader of the Farstriders.
With their home now filled with the Scourge, Lor'themar and Halduron took on the responsibility of protecting the elven race. Furthermore, after renaming the high elves "blood elves" in honor of their fallen brethren, Kael'thas joined the new Alliance to fight the threat of the Scourge sweeping across Lordaeron. Halduron and his old friend Lor'themar were ordered to stay in the ruins of Quel'Thalas and try to find a way to heal the people and free the elves from the withdrawal symptoms after the destruction of the Sunwell. Halduron and Lor'themar joined forces to launch a guerrilla war against the remaining Scourge in Quel'Thalas, winning victory after victory.
It is unknown when Dar'Khan Drathir set out to find the incarnation of the Sunwell, the woman named Anveena Teague, and eventually arrived at the elves' homeland. When Lor'themar and Halduron learned of this news, they resolutely decided to get rid of the traitor Dar'Khan to avenge the corruption of the Sunwell.
During a conversation with Halduron, Lor'themar revealed to him that the reason why Dar'Khan befriended him was actually to obtain from him the knowledge about the defense barrier of Quel'Thalas, and then use this knowledge to deal with his own people. However, it was unexpected that Dar'Khan betrayed his promise not long after and sold this valuable knowledge directly to Arthas. From then on, Dar'Khan completely betrayed the entire elf race.
Halduron volunteered to ambush Dar'Khan. At this moment, Dar'Khan suddenly mocked Lor'themar's performance in the devastating battle of Quel'Thalas. But who could have expected that Dar'Khan could summon a large number of high elf undeads! Faced with such a large number of powerful enemies, Halduron and Lor'themar had no choice but to retreat.
Not long after, a sharp, piercing, and creepy cry suddenly reached Halduron's ears! The sound seemed to penetrate the human soul, making people terrified. Halduron immediately realized that it was the scream of a banshee! And the owner of this terrifying cry was actually the former ranger general - now the Banshee Queen Sylvanas!
So, Halduron and Lor'themar began to search in the direction of the sound. Finally, their efforts paid off. After some hard work, they successfully found and captured Kalecgos and his companions.
