Menethil's Power

Chapter 644 Gloomy Despair

Without A'dal's protection, the low city wall of Shattrath basically only had symbolic meaning. It lasted only a few minutes before it collapsed under the fel energy artillery fire. Fel orcs poured in like a tide. During this time, they passed through the portal They have gathered thousands of scales outside the city.

The senior scholar Omona was still in a trance, and Adeyin started to run as soon as he grabbed him, "Let's go!" He sternly shouted: "That monster that even Lord Adal can't stop may come out at any time!"

He shuddered when he thought about the feeling that his whole mind was completely controlled. He didn't want to experience the second time at all, he just wanted to escape quickly, the farther the better.

"Where can we escape?" asked one of the priests behind him, his voice trembling with panic.

"Go to the nearest crystal tower!" Adeyin said without thinking.

At this time, the crystal tower that can be folded is the only way out.

Everyone reacted and followed Adeyin's footsteps one after another. When fleeing in a hurry, no one noticed that in the temple behind them, the lines of holy light leading to all parts of Shattrath City were rapidly dimming.

……

"Priest Isana, what the Aldo priests have to do now is to protect the people and organize them to go to the nearby Protos Crystal Tower. My knights and I will stop the enemy and buy you time, please. "

Of course, it was not only Adein who realized the final retreat of the Crystal Tower, but also General Tira Saran, the supreme commander of Shattrath. Although the disappearance of Adal's breath shocked the general, he did not lose his composure.

At this moment, he was fully armed and riding on the tall Thunder Elephant, and it was obvious that he would go into battle in the next moment.

The priestess Isana nodded with some difficulty. Naturally, she would not be confused about the priorities. The top priority now is to keep more people alive, but without the magic support of the priests of Aldo, Tira Saran and his men It is almost impossible for the guards to block the enemy's offensive, they are completely buying time with their lives.

But this is their destiny and duty as Guardians of the Holy Light.

"I will keep two high-ranking priests by your side..."

"No." Tira Saran refused without hesitation, "Don't worry about me, I have experienced similar scenes, and I have also considered how to deal with the tragedy that happened again, but I didn't expect this moment to come like this. quick."

Isana couldn't help but be moved by the noble sacrifice spirit of the paladin in front of her, and her eyes couldn't help getting moist.

"I should go." Tira Saran instigated the thunder elephant, and finally took a deep look at the priestess, "The Holy Light teaches us to be merciful, but I think you must understand that Aldo should give priority to rescuing our people."

He emphasized the word "we".

Isana felt a bit of bitterness in her heart. After the city was broken, the reaction time left for them was very short. Only a small number of people must be able to evacuate through the crystal tower, and there are not only draenei in Shattrath, but also those who have been inspired. from other races.

Everyone is equal before the Holy Light, but they are not the Holy Light, they are just believers of the Holy Light, not to mention that for the Draenei who have gone through catastrophe, every member of the tribe is very precious.

After all, Shattras is not an ideal land. The reason why peace and beauty can be maintained is entirely because of the existence of Adal, and now this guarantee no longer exists.

The draenei in the city were gathered together. Fortunately, the draenei who have survived to this day basically know what to do at this moment, so this work did not take too much time, although many sympathetic Orr The polypriests also rescued some arakkoa and sporemen, but the number was very limited.As city after city fell, these refugees gathered around the various crystal towers.

These crystal towers have been in operation all the time. Before, the reinforcements were turned over for support, but now they are turning on full power to transfer refugees. One by one, the Draenei were turned over. Although there was inevitably some commotion, the refugees generally remained calm. .

The people of a race full of disasters must be tough and tenacious.

"Keep order, those who don't have the ability to fight will be given priority! Keep calm, the Holy Light is with us!" shouted Isana, who arrived in a hurry, and was relieved to find that her words were superfluous, and such a scene It is happening simultaneously around more than ten crystal towers.

The sacrifice of Tira Saran is meaningful, and more people will survive.

There was a shrill howl in the sky, several Void Dragoons were obviously very dissatisfied that so many civilians gathered before their eyes, and they controlled their mounts to dive.And the Protos crystal tower suddenly burst out with a brilliant impact of holy light, and the few void dragons that were hit howled miserably, ignoring the curses from the riders on their backs, and flew to the distance like fleeing for their lives.

The energy of these crystal towers is almost endless, and they can serve as powerful defense facilities even if they are constantly crossing.Draenei technicians just researched and manufactured this kind of crystal tower technology a few years ago. Isana is very grateful for this, and is also very grateful to the foreigner who provided great help for the research and development.

Little did she know that the foreigner who had provided so much help was now responsible for the fall of Shattrath.

"Master Isana, look over there!" the assistant behind the priestess suddenly said in a trembling voice.

Isana looked over subconsciously, and then her face changed drastically. Among the dozen beams representing other crystal towers, one suddenly disappeared.

And this is just the beginning, just like the wind blowing out the candles, the light of the crystal towers is extinguished from far to near, and the darkness is shrouded in darkness. Every time a crystal tower is extinguished, a group of void dragoons that have been hovering in the sky will dive down with grimaces. , there is no doubt that they will bring fear and death.

"No..." Isana moaned.

A panicked cry came from her side. Isana turned around and found that the light of the only remaining crystal tower behind her also began to dissipate. The screams of half the unfortunate.

Because it was right in front of her eyes, Isana could clearly see the changes in the crystal tower. As the light dimmed, the originally violet crystal was gradually being infected by a kind of sticky blackness.

Apparently, other crystal towers have been corrupted by such filth.

It happened so quickly that no one could even do anything to try to save it.

The sudden despair hit everyone's heart hard, and no one was spared.

However, the hope came in a timely manner. In the few places in the crystal tower that have not been eroded, the glare suddenly appeared, clearing away all the filth like a star explosion, and the tyrannical power of the holy light even soared into the sky.

And in this light, a pure and powerful existence appeared, his body was composed of translucent crystals, as if it was light.

"Don't be afraid, believers of the Holy Light, hope will never go out." A soft voice sounded in everyone's ears.

"Lord Wardes!" Isana couldn't hide her inner excitement.

At the most difficult time for Draenei, three naaru responded to the call of the prophet Velen and came to the broken Draenor. They were Adal, Vodes and Muru. Although Vodes is not as powerful as Adal, but There is no doubt that he is also enough to represent the Holy Light.

The soft light soothed everyone's heart and made them feel calm. No one noticed that a black figure appeared at some time, floating in mid-air, quietly observing everything.

"After Adal's failure, you actually showed up here on your own initiative. I have to say that you are really brave." After a long time, he said in a playful tone.

Countless pairs of eyes looked up at him, as if they didn't realize his existence until this time.

"I'm here for these innocent people." Wanders' words echoed in this space. He was not just talking to the visitors, but also telling all the draenei present, "You were once a A staunch follower of the Holy Light, why did you commit such an evil deed? Could it be that your heart has been completely corroded by the void, and you have completely lost the goodness that a normal creature should have?"

The black-robed man who suddenly appeared was naturally Isaacs, and he sneered, "There is absolutely no need to answer such boring and childish questions. I don't know whether to evaluate you as stupid or naive. Being here was a hugely wrong choice."

And just as he finished speaking, Wades suddenly groaned in pain. Amidst the exclamations one after another, the corroded crystal towers suddenly shot out jet-black clusters, forming chains with an astonishingly dark aura. It pierced directly into Wardes' body, and the power of Naaru's bodyguard had almost no effect.

"No!" Isana exclaimed.

"Compared to Adal, your strength is much weaker." Isaacs looked down, as if watching a beast that had fallen into a trap, "What's more, it was the most inappropriate time, didn't you notice this? Are the crystal towers in the city basically out of your control?"

On the chains piercing into Wardes's body, the black filth spread, and even Naaru's body could not resist this corruption.

The surrounding refugees fell into silence, and even Walders, who was Naru, was so weak. How powerful is this evil existence in front of him?

"Since you foolishly miscalculated the situation, you will have to pay the price." Isaacs' tone was cold and heartless.

"You won't succeed, at least...the people here can survive." Wades said with difficulty, fine cracks appeared on his crystal body, and the core power from Naaru was surging and quickly reached its peak , but the target is not the chains piercing his body, but the half-corrupted crystal tower.

The power of a naaru in a desperate situation is astonishing. The abnormality of the crystal tower was cleared in an instant, and the force field spread with spatial fluctuations, covering almost all the refugees.

"No..." Isana's tears couldn't stop flowing.

Walders, the naaru with a great personality, broke out with all his strength at the last moment to save these draenei refugees.

"All innocents will be merciful." Wades' voice was intermittent, and after consuming a lot of his own energy, the corruption on his body was rapidly deepening.

The refracted rays of light gradually enveloped the figures of the Draenei people. At the last moment, Isana looked at Walders, watching this great existence be completely corrupted. Strong anger surged in her chest, but she could not express it.

These draenei completed the crossing and disappeared, and the holy light crystal has completely fallen into silence, and the energy explosion of Walders has completely destroyed its internal structure.

Isaacs could actually prevent this turnaround, but he didn't do that, because it didn't make any difference to him whether to let these refugees go or not, and his goal now was Wanders himself.

Adal is too powerful, it is almost impossible to transform his power, and can only be exiled in space, but Wades is different, his strength can be said to be just right.

The body of this naaru has completely turned purple-black, like Kara back then, completely turned into a dark star. Isaacs stretched out his palm, absorbing the pure void essence that was transformed from it.

He is not very satisfied, the power given to him by transforming Wades is not much, it can only be said that it is better than nothing.

Shattrath has been broken, and the Draenei still have a core stronghold, which is the Storm Fortress in the northern Netherstorm area, where there is the last naaru.

With the whistling sound of wings, Talon Gorefiend sensibly let his mount land on the ground, and bowed down respectfully in front of Isaacs, "My lord, we didn't kill too much according to your order, but those captives How to deal with it?"

Walders' last effort actually only saved the refugees around this crystal tower. A large number of Draenei still have nowhere to escape, but they are still alive for the time being.

"Leave it to the follow-up troops," Isaacs waved his hand casually, "whether it is directly corrupted or used as a slave, the living are always more valuable than the dead."

Talon Gorefiend was wise not to contradict Isaacs, though he wanted to show that the dead were valuable too.

"Gather the Nether Dragoons," Isaacs ordered again, "The next target is Netherstorm."

After this battle, Draenei must be vigilant, which means that it should be difficult for him to gain control of their crystal tower from the dark, so he needs a mount to go to Netherstorm.

Isaacs concentrated his mind and stretched out his hand slowly. The next moment, a dark space portal opened wide, and then a huge dragon claw protruded out. The terrifying and violent breath dissipated. All the void dragons were shocked after feeling this breath. Overcome the suppression of the blood, and kept silent like a chilling cicada.

"Come out, Neltharion."
