Chapter 540 Plague Investigation
Just as Medivh visited Kane, the Scourge invasion had begun.
Just like the original history, when Antonidas heard about the plague in the Kingdom of Lordaeron, he felt a little unbelievable.
Humans in Azeroth have passed the backward period of living in mud huts and sharing a room with pigs and sheep. Their residences have all the characteristics of the European and American villages in the late 19th century in the original world.
Still taking houses as an example, stone foundations, wooden walls, large wooden beams, and tiled roofs are basically the same. For better ones, there are wooden floors and second floors available.
After the appearance of cement, cement floors quickly entered thousands of households.
In some large towns, new houses have begun to use concrete frames and prefabricated floor slabs. This is not only sturdy, but also avoids problems such as moving upstairs, dust falling downstairs or squeaking downstairs.
The living environment of the whole people is improving, and the sanitation situation is obviously better. Why did the plague appear?
Especially on the King's Road, this is not a deserted village, but the front line of fashion. With the convenience of the King's Road, they are always the latest to see new things, and they always act as the first batch of followers.
So when Jaina suspected that the statement about the plague might not be true, Antonidas let her go.
Jaina doesn't need to summon water elementals to fight against the cute stupid ogre that came out on the way this time. Today's Northland, not to mention ogres, can't even find a kobold.
Either he was overthrown by the traveling paladins of the Knights of the Holy Sword in the early years, or he was captured by the knights of the Knights of the Silver Hand later and exchanged for money.
Today, most of these villains of various ethnic groups who have done business without money are trafficked to Kalimdor by Kane, the largest human trafficker today, to work hard in the second phase of the Orgrimmar project of the new tribe.
Jaina successfully joined Alsace, and after that, the team headed towards the incident, the secluded farm east of Andhal.
Secluded Farm is a natural village formed by free growers. To the east is Dalong Lake, with beautiful lake and beautiful environment. But now, this place has become a dead place.
Jaina felt the remnants of magical power, and Arthas, as a paladin, felt a gloomy power that was extremely opposed to the power of the Holy Light.
"It's the power of darkness!"
"And evil." Jaina said and pointed to the door of a house on the side of the road,
There was dried blood there, and the poisonous green fluorescent thing glowed like hoarfrost in the moonlight.
"Take precautions, evil things may appear at any time!" Alsace said and activated the King's Blessing, which benefited everyone around him.
In addition, as a paladin of the Silver Hand, and a hero-level character, he has an aura and focuses on the aura. Can improve the defense ability of the same camp in the area.
Jaina also has a brilliant aura, which can speed up mana recovery. For the caster, this aura has a high use value.
Under Ethan's reminder, the entourage was ready to go to war at any time.
Afterwards, they cautiously conducted a comprehensive search on the Silent Farm, but found neither living people nor monsters.
Where did everyone go?
Seeing that it was getting late, Alsace decided to visit the Glenn Farm in the northeast. It's closer to the King's Road. If there is no special situation, I will rest there at night.
There is really nothing, not only no situation, no one.
You can't see people when you are born, and you can't see a corpse when you die. What kind of ghost is this? And it's definitely not relocation, all the living things are in the room!
Jaina said: "The situation is much more serious than expected. The two villages are not small, and there are no more than a thousand people in total. Such people will be very conspicuous no matter where they go."
Arthas nodded: "We're going to Andorhal, tomorrow morning, ask the Griffon Knight to detect it from the sky."
Jaina answered: "It is too strange to notify other areas overnight to be vigilant."
Alsace wanted to say that he was making a big deal out of a molehill? You must know that the law and order in the Northland is surprisingly good now, there are no robbers, and no monsters can be seen.
Speaking of this matter, Galin Trollbane of the Falken Kingdom has to be mentioned, and it can be said that he contributed the most.
The prince probably became addicted to running a concentration camp, and bought all kinds of intelligent creatures at a high price. I heard that they were all sent to mines as coolies.
Thinking of Garin, he naturally thought of what he did in Lordaeron.
Alsace felt that compared with Kane, he seemed too immature, and also lacked outstanding achievements to prove himself.
"This time, maybe it's an opportunity."
Thinking of this, he was not in a hurry to deny Jaina's proposal, and said: "Let's go to Andorhal first, where a squadron of Silver Hand Knights is stationed, and I hope their wisdom and strength can help.
Jaina nodded, feeling that Alsace was much calmer than before.
She likes the sunshine and enthusiasm of Alsace, but as a prince, he was a bit impetuous in the past, but this time I met him, I feel that he has improved a lot. This made her very satisfied. She felt that Alsace would become a competent king if he continued to develop like this.
A group of people rode on the road, and when they arrived in Andorhal, it was already the tip of the moon.
Azeroth has two moons, the big one is called Lady White (human), Elune (night elf), Musha (troll, tauren), and the small one is called Blue Boy. Now it's Elune, the brightness is still very good.
What made Arthas even more gratified was that the guards of Andorhal were vigilant enough. Someone shouted and a strong light shone from a distance away.
Spotlight, this is an invention of Kane. It is based on the principle of reflection and light collection. Even ordinary torches can be used as light sources, but they can illuminate far away through spotlights, and they are very popular among the general public.
In addition, the night watch system of the Silver Hand also learned from the Knights Templar, and it is said that it was also invented by Prince Galin. But at this moment, Alsace and his party felt very good when they encountered competent guards.
Andorhal is very important. It is a food distribution station. The food from the entire Tirisfal region will be gathered here. In the past, even the food from the Darrow region will be transported here, because it will be transported from Icewind Dale to Stormgar Germany, and then flow to Kul Tiras, Dun Morogh, and even the Kingdom of Stormwind.
However, with Fao Port this year, the food from the Dalong area will probably not come over, and the rest will still be concentrated here, because with the major repairs on the lines of Icewind Dale, Steinbrad, and Tarren Mill, The land route is much easier, and it is also safe and sound. It is no more laborious to transport food to Nanhai Town than Fao Port.
Alsace also heard that Kane intends to repair the midstream area south of the Dano Dam so that it can be used by large river ships. If so, a river wharf can be built at the southern end of Icewind Dale, and ships can go down the river and directly into the South China Sea, and the transportation capacity will be doubled.
It's great to go down the river, but how to solve the problem of returning home?
Alsace is also aware of steam-powered ironclad ships. It is said that the strength is great, and there is a special measurement word called 'horsepower', but he has not seen it with his own eyes, so he will express his opinion if it is not good.
Alsace and his party entered Andorhal and found that everything was fine here.
Someone prepared meals for them who were hungry, and they took the opportunity to take a hot bath. Today is tiring enough. It is the end of August and the weather is very hot. After a day, they are stinky.
Don't covet the refreshment of a cold bath, but take a hot bath to relieve heat and fatigue.
Shower shampoo must be used. It is clean and refreshing. Alsace likes the scent of soothing flowers, which is light and long-lasting, and refreshing.
Then he discovered that these were also invented by Prince Galin, or at least they were widely used under Prince Galin's improvement and strong advocacy, such as showers.
There are Falcon brands everywhere in life, and some people are used to saying that Garin is everywhere in life.
There are many trees in the Dalong area, and the night breeze already has a little bit of coolness, and it is very pleasant when the small wind blows.
Just had dinner with Gianna on the patio. The atmosphere is great and the food is delicious.
Arthas asked: "What do you think of Prince Trollbane?"
"It's a weirdo." Jaina said with a smile to herself: "He was very close to my stubborn father."
Alsace was also amused by this.
Indeed, apart from his appearance and age, Galin didn't look like a young man at all. When people mentioned him, it was basically the same as talking about Antonidas, Uther and the like. They were all famous swordsmen. Nothing that happened was enough to surprise people.
Jaina asked Arthas back: "What about you? What do you think of him?"
"Many times I feel that I am not living in the same world. The sense of distance is stronger than facing my father and Uther. But it must be admitted that he is an outstanding genius. His achievements have surpassed those of his peers, even People of the older generation are far behind, including the process of pursuing beautiful women, which makes me admire."
As a celebrity, Kane is the most talked about gossip consciousness, which is the process of getting acquainted with Onyxia. Various versions, many of which guessed the truth.
"Just admiration? No envy." Jaina asked casually.
"I feel that I need to love my wife with all my heart and soul, so that I can live up to her love for me." Alsace seized the opportunity to express...
The sweet words touched people's hearts, and the two had sex that night.
The next step will be to pull up the ruthless.
In the middle of the night, the two were awakened by the noise, followed by the guards and hurriedly reported outside the door that the monster appeared, and it was inside.
Alsace has learned a lot from the more and more formal Knights of the Silver Hand in the past few years. Hearing this, he put on his clothes while giving orders: "Security guards the gate of Andorhal, and the granary is divided into people. Prevent someone from arson."
"Yes." The guard asked again, "Do you want to wake up Miss Proudmoore?"
"I'll go in person." Arthas opened his mouth and came, but Jaina was beside him.
Andorhal's guards are well-trained, but this time the opponent who took advantage of the night to attack is a large number of people, and there is a heavy unit that did not appear in the early stages of the original historical line-the meat grinder.
The meat grinder is a bloody, horrible, hideous, and full of profane equipment. It can collect corpses and use them as materials for necromancers to summon bone warriors and bone mages. It can also throw corpses out like a stone wagon. Bombs, explosive and highly corrosive, are very destructive to structures.
Andorhal's heavy wooden door was severely corroded and blown apart before it persisted a few times. Then, under the cover of the tank-like abomination, the bone warriors and ghouls swarmed up from the darkness, squeezed through the shattered door, and rushed in. Andorhal.
The human side has not been properly arranged, so they have to go up to fight.
Jaina summoned the water elemental, and continued to urge fireballs to bombard the target. Alsace carried the hammer and commanded while fighting. He reminded the soldiers to use tactics as much as possible, pay attention to the left and right, and don't be tricked and fall into a tight siege.
At the same time, he continued to apply King's Blessing, and the focus aura was also playing a role.
Shortly after the battle was in full swing, Kel'Thuzad appeared wearing a ram bone helmet.
He used magic to transmit the voice: "His Royal Highness, I didn't expect you to be here. I showed up a little late, and I'm sorry. I came here under the beautiful moonlight to gather the believers of my lord. Why do you insist on stopping me?" ..."
Alsace was naturally very annoyed at Kel'Thuzad's pretentiousness.
Later, when the battle was in full swing, Kel'Thuzad deliberately revealed the existence of the dreadlord Malganis when Arthas couldn't help but scold him.
