Chapter 984 ?? The Firelight of Lake Darrowmere?
The genius remembers the address of this site in one second: [] The fastest update! No ads!
The current lord of Hearthglen, Tylan Fording, accepted the soldiers who escaped from Stratholme and the poor thousands of refugees, and began to actively manage the fortress and defense facilities of Hearthglen to prevent the undead from attacking him again. This territory has never been truly captured by the undead.
Although,
If Prince Alsace and Uther hadn't come to support them last time, they, who were ill-prepared and poisoned by the undead, might have been captured by the undead long ago?
Half a month ago, after Uther returned to Lordaeron to report to King Terenas on the dangers of the undead plague, the paladins of the Silver Hand began to leave Hearthglen and frantically raided the ruins of Andorhal. The sporadic and endless undead seem to want to reoccupy and operate Andorhal in order to resist the upcoming undead attack?
But unfortunately, with the residents dying or fleeing, and the kingdom not re-sent troops to garrison and consolidate its defenses, it is obvious that the more than 1,000 paladins cannot control a city and area as large as Andorhal.
And at the intersection of Colin, the front line against the undead, unexpectedly, the general Alfred Abedis and his daughter Bridget Abedis, who everyone thought the situation was the most difficult. The human task is unexpectedly easy... Because, I don't know why, more than half a month has passed, but the army of undead they imagined has never arrived. Those undead seem to be in no hurry to go south. And it has been entrenched in the area around Stratholme and the newly formed diseased forest?
Therefore, the two fathers and daughters with more than 20,000 troops in their hands operated their fortifications near the crossing of Colin Road and Tyre's Hand, allowing various fortresses, strongholds, sentry towers, etc. to stand up. , All kinds of ground thorns and traps are also scattered everywhere near the intersection of Kaolin, and it is temporarily unknown when those fortifications will come in handy.
therefore,
A certain little witch who had been stranded here after returning to Darrow County with some paladins had just been idle. She even had time to go out to investigate the source of the plague with David Clover and Captain Joseph Redpath who were also free.
Because, they got a very reliable and valuable piece of information from some channels, it is reported:
The undead plague appeared from Andorhal at the beginning, and the plague of Andorhal originated from Lake Darrowmere, and the plague of Lake Darrowmere has and may, or very responsibly, can only come from a place, that is a large island in the center of the lake—Cair Darrow? !
then,
After receiving the information and analyzing it carefully, the Paladin Davy Crawford and Captain Joseph Redpath led some elite soldiers and scouts, together with those who were idle in Darrowshire Together with Hermione Granger and the Witch, they set off from Darrowshire, quietly took advantage of a thick fog, and sneaked into Caer Darrow Island by boat.
But now, their group has been groping forward for half a day in the ruins of this big island, which is also a city that can accommodate tens of thousands of people.
"..."
"Mr. Crawford, and Captain Redpath, are you sure that this is really the source of the plague? Is it really the lair of the Cult of the Damned? But, how can I see that there is only a ruin of the city here? , and those undead wandering in the ruins..."
Yes, as she slowly dived into this huge island of Caer Darrow, and as she slowly approached the castle of the Barov family, all Hermione saw were wreckage, ruins and ruins all over the ground. There are no living people here, only those undead and evil undead monsters wandering around, as if they were captured by the undead plague a long time ago?
So, looking at those dilapidated houses, dirty streets, dilapidated castles, rusted cannons on the walls, etc.,
Hermione, who came here for the first time, is more willing to believe: this city of Kaer Darrow is not like a base established after colluding with the Cult of the Damned, but more like Stratholme occupied by the undead. Usually, another place that was poisoned and destroyed by the undead plague?
However, compared to the tragic Stratholme that fell more than half a month ago, it is possible that Caer Darrow has already fallen here.
Perhaps, in terms of time, the terrible undead plague might have really leaked from Caer Darrow and Lake Darrow Mill, but if it is said that this place is controlled by the Cult of the Cursed God and demons, she will Can't believe it just yet.
"Miss Granger..."
"Actually, we didn't really believe it at first, but our scouts found two informants who provided important information, so I think you will understand later."
Captain Joseph Redpath led the way carefully, because they sneaked in secretly this time, so if possible, try not to be discovered by the undead wandering in the ruins of the city, and if they are accidentally discovered , but also directly kill the opponent with thunderous means, and must not let the opponent send out any alarms.
Otherwise, with such a small number of people, they might have to flee in embarrassment...
After all, this is the lair of the legendary Cult of the Cursed God, and they definitely dare not continue to lurk in after being discovered by the enemy.
"..."
"Mr. Crawford, can you tell me something about the Barov family?"
"I don't know why, but I'm still a little reluctant to believe that there are people in this world who really choose to be with the undead, to be in cahoots with those evil beings, and they even don't hesitate to give up their family's territory, their homes and cities. destroy them all?"
Yes, Hermione couldn't figure out why someone put away a great Darrowmir Lake and Kaer Darrow's paradise-like territory, and forcibly hooked up with people from the Cult of the Damned, even Give up all your people, your family and even your territory?
Hermione couldn't figure out that kind of terrible thing, it didn't seem like a group of normal people should do it.
"The Barov family?"
"Well, if it's Miss Granger you want to know, then I might as well tell you!"
"However, because the Barov family has been keeping a low profile in recent years, and their city has always had very little contact with the outside world, so I may not know much... Speaking of which, this matter may start from the First World War. Speaking of time, at that time, I was just a little paladin, a small captain from Darrow County. Later, most of the content about the Barov family was also listened to by Master Uther I only found out after talking about it.”
Caer Darrow County is very big here. It may take a lot of time to explore the ruins of the castle near the Barov family after entering the city. In addition, there are not many undead around now. If there is a problem, Joseph and the others should be able to It was easily resolved, so, after thinking about it, Davy Crawford started the meeting and began to speak in a low voice.
"Well……"
"I remember it like this, it started before the Kingdom of Alterac was destroyed..."
Once upon a time, the Barov family was a wealthy and ancient family that controlled the vast land east of the Alterac Mountains! Whether it is Brill, Tarren Mill, Caer Darrow or the rich South Sea Town, etc., this large area of the plains and confluence of the Alterac Kingdom is all owned by their Barov family. manor!
It can be said responsibly that the wealth of the Barov family is comparable to that of the royal family of Alterac. Whether it is territory, wealth or army, they can be said to be a country within a country in Alterac!
Moreover, the Barov family also has the ancient blood of the Arathi people. They have lived in the old castle of the ancient Arathi nation in Keer Darrow County for almost 1,200 years, and they have continued this tradition. An ancient and noble lineage of Arathi blood.
Unfortunately……
The outbreak of the first orc war completely changed the fate of the Alterac Kingdom, and at the same time changed the fate of the Barov family, an ancient family.
At that time, no one thought that the treacherous king of Alterac, Aiden Perenolde, secretly surrendered to the orc army and launched a counterattack against the alliance army behind his back?
During that dark period, Alterac, as a human kingdom, not only did not unite with other kingdoms to resist the invasion of the orc tribes, but also continued to incite peasant riots and organize rebels in the alliance-controlled area. Repeatedly harassing the Dalaran Kingdom's army in the Hillsbrad area, so that Dalaran has been unable to fully support the Alliance Navy fighting in the south, which almost led to extremely bad military consequences!
Later, with the support and intervention of Uther the Lightbringer, the rebels entrenched in Dalaran were finally defeated, and the remaining forces of the Alterac Kingdom had to flee to the Darrowmir Lake. The territory of the Barov family fled to Caer Darrow.
Immediately afterwards,
The Barov family of Caer Darrowshire, who had been watching for a long time, saw that the opportunity was not good at this time, so they betrayed the Kingdom of Alterac as if opportunistic, and began to claim to stand on the side of the Alliance of Lordaeron, and actively cooperated The elven fleet of Silvermoon City broke through the siege of the orc army trying to block Lake Darrowmir, and packed up the Alterac rebels and some orc captives who ran to Keir Darrow and handed them over to Luo In the hands of the Danlun Alliance.
There is not much suspense about what happened next. After the orcs fled, under the counterattack and encirclement of the mages of Dalaran and the alliance's powerful army, the Kingdom of Alterac was annihilated with little ability to resist, and even, Even the recalcitrant mountain capital, Alterac Castle, that majestic mountain city was razed to the ground by the magicians of Dalaran!
As a representative of the Fence Faction, the Barov family, who chose to join the Lordaeron Alliance at a critical moment, was lucky enough to escape the crime and was temporarily forgiven for their crimes and meritorious deeds...
That's right, it's temporary!
Because, human beings are very fickle creatures, and "settling accounts after autumn" is a political technique that some politicians like and are used to.
"well……"
"We all know what happened afterwards. With the complete defeat of the orc tribe and the end of the war soon, our king of Lordaeron, Terenas Menethil, made the final judgment ..."
"The remnant nobles of the Kingdom of Alterac, and the Barov family's rebellious behavior cannot be completely forgiven, and they insisted on implementing a certain limit of punishment, that is: deprivation of their rights in Brill, Tarren Mill and Nanhai Town and other elite places, and confiscated and managed this place as a support point for the orc prison Dunholde Fort?"
"As a matter of fact, the escrow is all an excuse. In fact, our cunning king is just disguising those lands that originally belonged to the Kingdom of Alterac, and removing those lands of the Barov family from the current one. Except for the poor and no longer important county of Caer Darrow, everything has been annexed into the territory of the Kingdom of Lordaeron..."
"So when I came here, I was thinking, if the Barov family has any reason to cooperate with the Cult of the Damned and crazily spread the undead plague in Lordaeron, I think those things are probably the main reason for all this Incentives?"
After finishing speaking, Paladin Davy Crawford sighed heavily again, obviously feeling rather heavy.
Undoubtedly, in terms of the follow-up matters in the Kingdom of Alterac, the eating appearance of their King Terenas Menethil of the Kingdom of Lordaeron is indeed a bit too ugly, otherwise, there will be no It will happen that the Kingdom of Gilneas will angrily withdraw from the Alliance of Lordaeron and the high elves will also take the opportunity to withdraw.
As a result, these injustices in the handling of the Alterac issue seriously damaged the interests of the Barov family, and instantly deprived the Barov family of nearly half of the territory that had been passed down for thousands of years, leaving only one and The not-so-important Kaer Darrow has made Barov carry the title of 'renegade' and 'betrayer' and has been reviled by people, so that Kaer Darrow has become increasingly deserted and bustling...
so,
With endless curses, resentment, and the people of the Barov family who stayed alone on the isolated island of Caer Darrow, they began to curse Terenas and cooperated with the Cult of the Damned to fight against Lordaeron, and in Andorhal, the Stratholme region, and the entire East and West Plaguelands (East Tirisfal Glades), the traditional lands and rich lands of Lordaeron, spread those terrible undead plagues, while Hinterland, Alterac It is no longer incomprehensible that the mountains and Hillsbrad hills have not had any plague outbreaks at all.
"well……"
"If all of this was really done by the Barov family, I think that the undead plague is really the result of our King Terenas' handling of the issue of the Alteran Kingdom. Because of..."
"However, Miss Granger, you probably wouldn't report to King Renus, saying that I, a paladin, was secretly talking about his old man behind his back, right?"
Although Dawei paladin said that what he said was all the truth, even after they finished the investigation and submitted the report to King City of Lordaeron, everyone who read the report would think of all the reasons for the matter and agree with him The ones just summarized, however, say that the king is not behind his back and are not 'rumours' or anything. It's always wrong, even if he's telling the truth!
"ah?"
"When, of course not..."
Hermione didn't think she would have the chance to meet the powerful King Terenas Menethil who led the Seven Kingdoms and defeated the orc invasion, so after hearing about the Barov family, Afterwards, while she was hesitating over and over again, she hurriedly echoed.
She doesn't think it's wrong for the paladin Davy Crawford to speak ill of the king behind his back, because if it's really the king's injustice that caused Barov to fall into the arms of the Cult of the Damned and release the undead for revenge If the plague...
Then, the king in Lordaeron's royal city must also be one of the culprits!
And the countless people of Lordaeron, the dozens or even millions of innocent lives who died under the undead plague, their deaths and sufferings must have been caused by King Terenas Menethil An inescapable responsibility.
'Be careful everyone, we're almost there! '
‘Lord David, and Witch Granger, you better keep your voices down, this place is already very close to the castle of the Barov family, look, that castle is there, we must pay attention! '
finally,
After Davy Clover gave a rough account of the dirty things between the Barov family, the Kingdom of Alterac, and Lordaeron, Captain Redpath reminded him in a low voice, Their small team of more than a dozen people finally arrived at their destination successfully after half a day of sneaking.
'Pay attention to the movement under your feet, be gentle...'
"The ruins in front are Barov's manor and castle. We can't go there anymore, because there are a lot of undead over there, and it is said that under the castle is the base of the Cult of the Damned, which is the manufacturing and dissemination of what the intelligence said. The Plague of Undead—Spiritual Academy! ! '
Captain Joseph Redpath hasn't confirmed whether the bottom is what he said, because he hasn't been able to go in, and he doesn't know what's going on inside. However, based on the information he got and the scouts Judging from the information we investigated, it is likely to be as he guessed.
"!!"
"Not good! Some undead have found us!!"
Suddenly, just when Hermione wanted to take a good look at the dilapidated and deserted castle of the Barov family, two human ghosts, a man and a woman, floated straight towards them. She was so scared that of course she took out her wand, and was about to use spells to deal with the two undead who discovered them.
'Wait first! '
‘Witch Granger, don’t do anything, they are their own! '
However, Captain Joseph Redpath reminded in a low voice, and hurriedly reached out and pressed the tip of her wand in advance, preventing a certain spell she was about to blurt out in time.
‘Good evening, you are finally here, young lady mage, and fellow knights, I am Aiwa Sackhoff, and this is my husband Luxen. '
'Hi everyone, nice to meet you...'
After the female ghost in maid-style clothing spoke, the male ghost in butler-style clothing beside her also spoke, and nodded and smiled friendlyly to the strangers who came to the Barov family's territory to 'guest' road.
"!!"
"You, you guys are..."
Hearing the other party's friendly question, and Captain Redpath lowering his wand, Hermione had to gradually relax after being shocked.
Although in the Hogwarts castle, Hermione had already seen many talking ghosts, such as the Peeves who knew how to make trouble all day long, the bloody Barrow with a fierce expression, the almost headless Nick and Hufflepuff's fat friar, Ravenclaw's Lady Gray, etc... However, this is the first time she has seen someone actively chatting and not attacking a living person on this land of Lordaeron Road. This is really too rare for her.
If it weren't for Joseph's sharp eyes and hands to stop her, I'm afraid her spell must have been thrown towards these two ghosts!
'They are the informants I just said! '
'The Barov family's information and the psychic academy below the castle are the clues they provided to our scouts, that's why we came here today. '
Seeing that the Granger Witch was still puzzled, Captain Joseph Redpath hurriedly and softly defended the two ghost couples who looked a little cramped and scared of witches.
'Really? ! '
Hermione felt a little unbelievable, but she never expected that the two ghosts in the territory of the Barov family would actually tip off the outsiders like them. This kind of thing is really too bizarre.
'Of course miss! '
"Although we used to be loyal servants in the castle of the Barov family, it no longer exists there. It is now called the School of Spirituality. It is no longer the castle of the family we are loyal to, so there is no need for us to replace it." It keeps secrets...'
‘You may not believe it, but I was the foreman of the maids at that time, and my husband Lu Sen was the butler of the master Barov’s family. '
"We have been working for the Barov family for generations, and we have been working here in this castle for decades, until..."
As she spoke, the ghost Aiwa Sackhoff's expression gradually became gloomy. Obviously, she felt a little sad about what happened here, or what happened to their couple.
"okay!"
"Aiwa Sackhoff, and Luxen Sackhoff, let's talk about the situation here first. Although the scouts have conveyed to us some descriptions of your couple, since we came here in person, we just want to Know more, want to know what's going on here, can you tell us more about it?"
Time was running out, and the Paladin Davy Crawford, who came here to investigate the truth, directly reached out to stop the two ghost housekeeper couples from speaking, and asked impatiently.
Before entering the castle for a field trip, he just wanted to know more about the information inside, instead of chatting with two 'friendly' ghosts with memories of their lives in such a dangerous place!
"Can you tell me about it?"
Hermione also wanted to know about Dawei's paladin, so she gradually relaxed and showed a kind smile to the two ghosts, because she knew that becoming a ghost was a very tragic thing , the two must have been terrified.
'Ow, of course...'
'It's really scary, miss, you may not know that Barov's manor was not like this before, it used to be full of life, full of vitality, like a garden, and this manor and castle belonged to the Barov family the chief abode in their distant kingdom...'
Aiwa began to recall slowly, and soon, her words gradually attracted everyone's attention.
'Things have changed since the end of the war and the fall of Alterac...'
‘Lussen and I noticed that, as time went on, the Barov family became more and more depressed and depressed. Paranoia, delusions, and rage enveloped the master and ladies. And at night, we can often hear the Barovs arguing fiercely in the bedroom. They kept cursing Lordaeron, and said that the king robbed their family's foundation and everything they had...'
'Of course, I have noticed the badges of Lordaeron on your body, you should be from the Kingdom of Lordaeron, right? I know that there are only people from Lordaeron around Lake Darrowmere... According to what we know, the greed of you Lordaeron and the master ruined everything, so to speak...'
'It's just that these are no longer important now, because everything is over...'
Even if she became a ghost, Aiwa Sackhoff still seemed to have some prejudices against the people of Lordaeron, otherwise, she would not have stared at Dawei Sheng with that kind of resentful gaze just now. The knight and the others took a deep look.
The sadness, anger, and resentment under his eyes were not feigned, it's just that those emotions had been covered up by other more terrible things.
"Miss!"
"Please get to the point. Our time is very urgent. This place may be discovered by the surrounding undead at any time. At that time, I'm afraid we will have to leave you and retreat!"
Davy Crawford was a little angry, because he could say bad things about Lordaeron himself, and he could even secretly say bad things about King Terenas, but he never allowed others to say bad things!
Therefore, without waiting for the female ghost to continue speaking at her own pace, Dawei interrupted the other party again outrageously and unreasonably, and signaled the other party to focus on those important points, because his patience has a limit.
'...'
'Okay, Mr. Knight...'
Although very reluctant, but, no matter for themselves or for the innocent souls who have fallen on this land, the Sackhoff couple finally began to share what they knew and why the city and castle of Caer Dallon of the Barov family would change. The reason for this is explained bit by bit:
In the beginning, the Barov family wanted to protect their treasure and ownership of the land after death, or to retaliate against the Kingdom of Lordaeron? They didn't know when they started to reach some kind of agreement with a powerful human mage named Kel'Thuzad, although, in the view of the Sackhoffs, their master was probably deceived by that cunning human mage. Take advantage of it?
But their opinions are not important, because the couple are just the foreman and butler, and they certainly cannot influence any decision of the owner, the Barov family, so they can only silently watch the changes here... …
Soon, with the arrival of more and more members of the Cult of the Damned, the couple discovered to their astonishment that as time went by and the cooperation between the two sides deepened, Barov's castle was unexpectedly surrounded by that terrifying energy. The next step is gradually aging... Even, it has begun to distort and deform, and darkness has begun to cover the entire family's territory, so that it has become impossible for them to carry out some necessary maintenance on the castle?
Immediately afterwards,
The couple lost contact with members of the Barov family, and were kicked out of the castle that belonged to them by those Cursed Cultists...
They didn't know what happened to the other servants or what they went through, but there were terrible screams, all kinds of painful wails, which continued day and night, like the sound from hell ?
So, because they were afraid, the couple found a hidden place and hid, and spent six months of sneaking and fearful long days, until the Barov family's castle and manor once again horrified. changes so far.
Those dirty and terrifying monsters began to roam freely in the manor as they are now, and those dark believers carrying all kinds of ritual and sacrifice-related utensils are also all over every inch of Caer Darrow County. The two finally couldn't hide and were caught.
After being tortured terribly, after a villain named 'Professor Serlin Kastinov' completed the plague experiment, the Sackhoffs, the loyal housekeepers of the Barov family, He was finally abused to death and resurrected as an undead, and has been trapped here around the Barov family castle since then, unable to go anywhere.
"this……"
"If what you said is true, then all this is too scary!!"
That Kel'Thuzad Hermione said she heard it, because it seems that the other party was killed by Prince Arthas and Sister Jaina when they were in Andorhal, and was burned into a jar of ashes?
However, regarding the death of the Barov family, and the fact that they did not hesitate to destroy themselves, destroy the entire Caer Darrow, and turn all the people into experiments in order to avenge the Kingdom of Lordaeron, I still feel a little bit. unbelievable.
"..."
"I see, you two, thank you very much for the important information you provided. Do you need our help?"
Nodding his head, and looking at Captain Redpath at the side, Davy Crawford said that he was finally sure that this was indeed the place they were looking for, the lair of the Cult of the Damned and the origin of the plague must be it's here!
Therefore, for the Kingdom of Lordaeron, for the countless destroyed families and lives, for those who are still alive, and for those who died, they must find a way to destroy this place no matter what, and punish the hiding place at all costs. Under the castle, those villains hiding in that 'Spiritual Academy'!
'...'
The Sackhoffs glanced at each other. Obviously, the two ghosts chose to help these strangers without any reason or purpose.
'We don't feel anything now, we are obviously dead, but we can't go where we should go, because our souls are trapped here, and our bodies are still in the hell under the castle, trying to find us none of us can leave until our bodies are laid to rest and our souls rest in peace...'
'So, all the knights present, and this lady mage, can you help us? '
'If you can, we hope that you will try to burn the remains of me, Aiwa Sackhoff, and my husband, Luxen Sackhoff, after you have killed that terrible butcher, and give our remains to Purify it completely, and then we should be able to rest in peace...'
Yes, the souls of the Aiwa Sackhoff couple are indeed trapped here, if the enemy who tortured them cannot be killed, if their broken and polluted bodies cannot be completely burned , their souls definitely cannot leave here and go to the world where their dead should go.
Although the Barov family and those who curse the gods are obsessed with immortality and power, for the Sackhoff couple, this kind of lifeless, warm, beautiful, and the surrounding world is faintly full of them. The "eternal life" with endless hostility and bone-chilling body feeling is not what they expected, and this is the reason why they choose to help these strangers.
"snort!"
"If that Kastinov, the guy who created the undead plague and killed countless lives is really here, I can assure you: he will be punished, justice must be done, and we will Find him and let him experience the pain he caused those innocent people!"
"I promise you!"
"Also, don't worry, we will definitely let your souls rest in peace, and we will definitely destroy your remains and everything in that psychic academy. Now you can go back and wait for my good news !"
Paladin Davy Crawford almost clenched his fists, and gritted his teeth and agreed to the two ghosts' request, and promised to do more immediately.
However, he didn't say when he would complete that task, because he still wanted to go to the psychic academy below to investigate it himself. If the situation was true, he would report it immediately and wait for the army to come to clear this place, to clear it up. The lair of the Cult of the Damned.
'it's me! '
‘Lord David! Captain Redpath! '
'I went down to investigate just now, the two ghosts didn't speak, it should be here, there are many undead and cursed believers below, but I didn't dare to go too deep. '
After the two ghosts left, soon, with the distortion of the surrounding light, a masked stalker appeared in front of everyone and said in a low voice after revealing his identity.
"Are you sure?"
Dawei was still a little hesitant, because this matter was very important, and he had to know more clearly before he could report it.
'My lord, I'm sure! '
'However, those undead are very sensitive to the breath of living people, and I was almost discovered by them several times... Also, I advise you to stay away from here, because the energy of the holy light on your body is too obvious, you are here It's not safe, it's best not to get close to the castle of the Barov family, those undead and the Cultists of the Damned will definitely find the energy of the Holy Light fluctuating on your body. '
The stalker said faintly, obviously, as a scout and stalker, he is not at all willing to get together with these paladins who are like big light bulbs in the dangerous environment behind enemy lines, and he is more willing to go alone. task, because that would be much safer.
"..."
"What should we do? David, shall we go back now and prepare to notify Lord Uther?"
Now Prince Alsace has gone to the Northrend continent, so the main person in charge at the intersection of Darrowshire and Colin is of course Uther, and the highest officer they can contact and will definitely meet I am afraid that only their old chief is paying attention to this matter.
If such an important matter is handed over to other bureaucrats in the kingdom, they will not be at ease.
"But I just left like this, I always feel a little bit unwilling!!"
Because Dawei paladins know that it may be difficult for Lordaeron to mobilize troops to attack Kaer Darrow in a short time now, and when the troops start to gather and attack, once the suddenness is lost, I am afraid that the cursed believers and undead here will The top brass got the news and ran away.
Of course, it is also possible that the army of the undead completely captured the East and West Plaguelands first and gained all the initiative in this area? You know, once the army of hundreds of thousands of undead near Stratholme starts to move out, the situation will collapse out of control immediately!
'Then what can we do now? '
‘Would you like to go in and have a look? '
'no! It's too rash for us to go in, there's no need for that! '
'However, just leaving like this, I always feel that those villains are a bit too cheap...'
'well…...'
'...'
Soon, Captain Joseph Redpath, Davy Crawford, and more than a dozen people from Darrow County began to discuss and argue urgently.
But it's a pity that they can't agree immediately, because half of them suggest to leave immediately to avoid alarming others, while the other half strongly suggest to go in and see the situation. After all, they are all outside the gate of the castle. If they can't Would it always be a little regretful to go in in person?
"..."
"Everyone! Maybe we don't need to go to others, we can destroy everything here by ourselves?!"
When everyone was arguing, Hermione's eyes suddenly lit up, because after thinking about the environment here in Caer Darrow, she suddenly thought of an excellent solution.
'What is the way? '
'Witch Granger? '
'Tell me, and if it is possible, we will listen to you! '
No way, the stalemate group of paladins, after finding that no one could persuade the other, they could only turn their heads to look at their respected Witch Granger.
If it was someone else, there would definitely be no way to subdue or order their arrogant paladins, but if it was this lord witch, even if they were far older than each other, to some extent, they would Still willing to compromise with the other party or obey orders.
"It's easy!"
"The last time we defended Darrow County, I think you guys remember Dawei Paladin and Captain Redpath, right?"
Hermione didn't say what her idea was, but she smiled slyly and suddenly summoned her magic book, and waved it in front of the other party as if showing off.
'! ! '
‘Witch Granger, are you sure it still works? ! '
Dawei Paladin and Captain Redpath looked at each other, and they were obviously ready to move, because they also thought it seemed a good idea, and they could easily destroy it without going back to make reports and rescue soldiers. Everything here!
"why not?"
"Anyway, there are no living people here, and there are lakes all around. No matter what happens here, it doesn't matter, right? Then simply burn this place, destroy everything here, and don't need to sacrifice more heroic soldiers life!"
"Also! Only fire is the best way to deal with plague and undead, isn't it?!"
Moreover, Hermione still remembers that the big guy who was summoned at that time was very angry with the undead, and was forced to disappear before even venting his anger, plus the last time he was in Stratholme Her suggestion to summon that guy was rejected by Uther, so she felt that this time, if she summoned again, that big guy would definitely come again.
'Done! '
'good! Just do it! Witch Granger, you are right, only fire can purify everything! '
'What are you waiting for? '
The paladins thought for a while, and quickly responded with gritted teeth.
They also feel that it is much better to completely destroy Darrowmere than to send troops to suppress it! Besides, they don't seem to have any more troops to send now, so, for the sake of nights and dreams, to prevent the enemy from escaping, or is it more appropriate to directly destroy everything here?
'! ! '
'I'll go back to Darrow County with you right now to get someone to prepare it. If you use that kind of teleportation spell, it shouldn't waste too much time! '
'Then let's find a suitable location...'
‘Shall we carefully clean up the wandering undead nearby, so that they don’t come close? '
'OK! '
‘Sirs, then shall I make some noise to attract the undead from the psychic academy? '
At this time, seeing the paladins starting to discuss, the stalker also spoke out, and with a smirk, he took out several large bags of dwarven high explosives.
Apparently, he had thought of sneaking in to plant explosives and destroy that psychic academy before! However, after thinking that those undead could not be killed easily by blowing up, even if they were partially buried underneath, it would not cause any serious problems, so he never dared to speak out his ideas.
'Just do it! '
‘I’m going to teleport back to Darrowshire with Witch Granger to get the materials, and I’ll be back soon! '
‘We promise to find a suitable safe venue before then! '
'Others, be vigilant around before we come back, remember, we only have one chance, so don't startle the snake! '
'clear! '
'You can rest easy, Mr. Cloverford! ! '
'Hush! Keep your voice down! ! '
'...'
Soon, the paladins, who had long been veterans of the army, finished their discussions within a few minutes, so when the decision was passed, everyone went to prepare separately.
After about two hours...
With a huge magic circle suddenly burning red flames, and with the rapid incantation, suddenly, in the ruins of the city of Caer Dron, in this land where the undead ravaged and there was only a bleak death, suddenly Once again, a huge flame rose up, and then, as a huge body gradually solidified appeared, the undead here were completely awakened by the low-pitched explosions coming from the ground!
Then, as a matter of course, they frantically rushed out from the gate of the Barov family's castle, successfully saw the huge and gradually solidified figure, and then launched an attack brazenly!
'This time, who is calling me again...? ! '
'! ! '
'? ? ? '
'Damn it! Stupid bugs, do you still dare to challenge the great Fire Demon King? ! '
The huge creature, which was attacked by a large group of undead just after being summoned, was furious. The huge hammer in its hand, which was bigger than a house, slammed down violently towards the place where the undead came out!
'Die! ! ! '
Strengthen Sufras!
??
Boom~! !
Amid the earth-shaking vibrations and roars, the ruins of the Barov family's castle were completely in ruins, and raging flames were still burning. Even the exit was melted into billowing magma. As for the undead and It is not clear whether the members of the Cursed Cultist and even the Dean, the Lich and the Butcher were smashed or burned to death in an instant.
‘I am the Lord of Fire Demons! ! '
Savras strikes hard! !
??
????????
rumbling rumbling...
With another hammer, the huge fiery red figure slammed down hard on the ruins of the Barov family castle that had been completely burned on the ground again!
In the next moment, under the action of the bursting flame energy, countless cracks, magma, and terrible flames exploded on the ground several miles around his body that was as firm as a huge mountain, and Barov originally The ruins of the family's castle were completely smashed down at this time!
Countless terrifying magma and flames began to completely fill it, the castle site turned into a deep pit, and the original underground facilities also turned into a magma pool in an instant. Come to think of it, those undead or cursed believers who stayed in it for research, even if they didn’t If it is smashed flat or burnt into coke at the first time, it will definitely not get better, right?
'Why do you keep bothering me...'
'Get on your knees, mortals, and I'll burn you alive! ! '
Living meteor!
?????????????
Whoosh~! Whoosh~! Whoosh~!
boom! boom! boom! boom! boom!
As if venting anger, endless billowing fireballs with flames began to be summoned from the sky and slammed down towards the entire Caer Dron Island! !
'Burn it up~! ! '
The deafening roar sounded like thunder again, making people know that the big guy must be in a bad mood just by listening with.
Shockwave! !
????
rumbling...
'Other worlds, this world, all the worlds, burn up...'
????????
'I'm going to turn this place into a Molten Core, bugs, you'll soon see the price of disturbing me, witness the great power of Ragnaros! ! '
'Huh ha ha ha ha...'
?????????????????
Being teased again, and being besieged as soon as he came out, the anger in Ragnaros' heart was burning, so he began to attack violently and squander his powerful and infinite power indiscriminately. Any moving objects it sees, or ground objects it sees, are all shrouded in flames...
'Well? ! '
'Die! Damn bugs! ! '
Savras strikes hard!
??
Rumble!
????????
A lich with chains wrapped around its body and dripping hot lava has just teleported out in embarrassment. Before it has time to identify itself or ask questions, it only saw a huge and terrifying war hammer viciously falling from the sky, and The frost armor around it couldn't resist even for a tenth of a second, and it was smashed directly into the magma-cracked ground by the burning sledgehammer, and the death could not be more miserable...
...
Five minutes later, when the berserk King of Fire had to gradually turn into a phantom and disappear without a trace, there was no longer an inch of land on Caer Darrow that was not burning with flames.
Everything turned into billowing flames or magma, and countless new fire elementals jumped up, cheered and ran happily on it, and the flames lit up the entire sky above Dalomere Lake, even in Andorhal. The paladins or some of the instigators of Darrowshire also vaguely saw the frightening flames coming from the skyline of the huge lake.
As for those undead and cursed believers...
Sorry, the current Caer Darrow should probably be called 'Island of Flame' or 'Island of Lava'. Those zombies, skeletons, or rotten corpses with maggots would definitely not be able to survive in this environment.
—————————————
In Hogwarts Castle, as the bedtime arrived, and as Headmaster Dumbledore started to stand up and yelled and used amplifying spells to drive away people, soon, those students filed away with some unsatisfactory intentions, leaving only A slightly messy hall.
'Wow! '
‘It’s really enjoyable, that Firelord, that Ragnaros is more terrifying than the legendary dragon! '
'That's right! Our Hogwarts castle is probably not enough for it to smash...'
'! ! '
‘You said that Granger would not summon it here at Hogwarts, would he? '
'Certainly not! Professor Dumbledore would not allow her to do that. '
'What if she did that? '
'Then I'll run home with the fireplace right away, I'm a Floo fan. '
‘Isn’t the fireplace in the common room not allowed to use the Floo net? '
'Then I apparate? '
'Come on, apparition isn't allowed in the school, you're going to get stoned to death, in fact we'll all be! '
'oh! Come on, Hermione sure wouldn't use that dangerous summoning spell at school, and she didn't have the ingredients! ! '
'Professor Annie said that it is an illusion, and the things inside must not exist. '
'But that guy is really exciting! '
‘Seeing the destruction of those undead and the academy of the Cursed God, I am so happy! '
'Me too! '
'Hahaha……'
'...'
While talking loudly, the students walked to the common room of their respective colleges under the leadership of their prefects and deans. Soon, only a little girl and a girl who looked at the badge seemed to be behind. A student of Winclaw.
However, none of the professors or prefects dared to interfere with the two of them, because ah, that little girl is their Professor Anne, and another Ravenclaw student is the crazy girl Luna Lovegood !
‘Thank you for agreeing to turn our last conversation into an exclusive interview and send it to my dad’s magazine. His “Quieker” is selling well, and he wrote me to thank you very much! '
Luna Lovegood followed behind the little girl who was carrying a teddy bear, threw her arms aside, and walked on the wide stone floor step by step with her short legs, and said gratefully.
"You're welcome, you can write whatever you want, as long as you don't write bad things about me!"
o(*^▽^*)o
Little Annie didn't mind the interviews, anyway, she didn't need to write them herself!
'correct! '
'Professor Anne, may I ask you? Why is Peeves so afraid of you? I just saw it, it originally planned to throw me with a rotten egg, but it ran away as soon as it saw you...'
The difficulty of Peeves is obvious to everyone in the school, and it is said that the other party is only afraid of Professor Dumbledore and the bloody Barrow, so Luna is really concerned about the methods this little professor used to deal with him. is very curious.
If she can learn it, she probably won't need to worry about the other party chasing after her, calling her a crazy girl and throwing her with rotten eggs or other things.
"..."
????????
"As long as you catch it, sink to the bottom of the lake and live with a group of water monsters Grindylow, who are noisier than it, for more than a month, it is guaranteed to run faster than anyone else when it sees you!"
(*??︶??*)
Yes, after more than a month, a certain unlucky Peeves was finally released by the great Professor Annie, because, ah, she felt that if there was no other party to bully, life at Hogwarts Castle would be less some fun?
(…)
(lll￢??￢)
'But……'
'how should I do? Because we can't hurt a real ghost! '
Luna was a little annoyed, because she obviously couldn't catch Peeves, let alone hurt him, let alone catch him and sink him to the bottom of the lake!
However, now she finally knew why Peeves disappeared for more than a month and was still running so fast after seeing Professor Annie! As for this matter, she plans to write about it in the next issue of Professor Anne's exclusive interview. She thinks that readers who subscribe to "The Quibbler" will definitely be happy to see these interesting things.
"If it can't be hurt, just create an illusion that it is afraid, and let its mind suffer critical damage!"
(灬??ω??灬)
Anne would definitely not teach a student how to hurt a ghost, because that would be too 'humane', and that weird old man Dumbledore would definitely have an opinion, so she should do that kind of thing alone That's it.
'Then what do I have to do to inflict a psychic crit on Peeves? '
Luna was puzzled, she was often bullied by Peeves because of her personality, but she really wanted to know what to do.
"..."
(??⊙ω⊙`)
"You know Boggarts, right? I'll teach you a counter-curse against Boggarts. You can use it on Peeves, and then you can make it see what it's most afraid of..."
????????
It is not difficult for Anne to create a new spell or something, but she is now thinking, when the new spell she gave Miss Luna is recited, will Peeves see What about your illusions? Maybe, surely it will be, right?
Of course, it could also be those terrible water monster Grindylow, or a rusty cannon barrel?
