The gray sky
The gray air
The sky over the whole night town seems to be shrouded in dark clouds that will never dissipate. Torches and braziers have been lit before sunset, otherwise you can't see clearly even 20 or 30 meters away.
More interestingly, the air here seems to be filled with an unknown smell, and all kinds of energy, including arcane, are also active and a little abnormal.
Warna chenge, keenly aware of this, turned and lowered her voice and asked, "do you feel it?"
"Well, of course." Zhang Cheng nodded gently and turned his eyes to the upwind path leading to the sad swamp.
If he remembers correctly, the culprit for such a strange situation in the twilight forest is neither the dead of crow ridge, nor ogres or werewolves, but the home of the last guardian Medivh, a tower called karazan.
It is said that after Lothar and kadgar killed Medivh, who was controlled by the dark Titans, a terrible curse came.
Since then, with karazan as the center, it began to spread in all directions. At present, the upwind path has become a gloomy and desolate place full of rocks and strange trees, and the sound of ghosts crying can be heard from time to time.
In contrast, although the twilight forest has also been seriously affected, at least the land has not been completely decomposed, and some animals and plants can still survive.
"Well, do you want to investigate?" warna chenge tried with a smile.
Zhang Cheng refused without thinking: "I'm sorry, I'm not interested. My task is to clean up the dead entrenched in crow ridge. The rest has nothing to do with me."
Go to the upwind trail to investigate karazan?
As long as there is nothing wrong with his mind, no one will agree to such a move of death!
You should know that Medivh is the last guardian of tirisfa Council and the most powerful caster of Azeroth. He even has the power comparable to the demigod. The magic protection he set is hard to say. Even if Dalaran's Archmage comes, he has to kneel down and sing conquest.
Not to mention there are some messy monsters inside, such as ghosts, arcane puppets, nether dragons, nightmares, Prince makzar of the Burning Legion, and so on. None of them is easy to deal with.
Maybe in the eyes of many players in the 1970s, karazan is just an entry-level team copy, and the difficulty is almost negligible. In fact, in real reality, there is no clear level division at all. Whether it is the Black Dragon Princess Onyxia or Illidan in the dark temple, there is no big difference in terms of danger.
Before gaining overwhelming power, Zhang Cheng won't touch the bad luck of these bosses. To be exact, he doesn't even intend to get close.
"Are you sure? Maybe there are powerful magic items or even artifacts behind these abnormal phenomena?" warna chenge obviously didn't give up and continued to seduce.
"Madam, if you are interested in this, please ask yourself to investigate alone. I have more important work to do, so I won't bother." after saying that, Zhang Cheng did not take into account the other party's frozen expression on his face, and took big steps to meet several strangers not far ahead.
After all, the news of riding a griffin from the sky was not small. The sentry sent the news to the Lord as soon as he found it.
Don't think that Griffin is a mass transportation tool that can be used casually only by paying a few silver coins in the game. On the contrary, without any social status, ordinary people can't even touch a hair.
In any case, Griffins are the backbone of the air force that the alliance is proud of. Each one needs strict screening and training from hatching to adulthood. Only with the financial resources of the storm kingdom can they barely feed three or four hundred. Therefore, it can be seen that it is precious. It depends on the face of the kenrito Council to rent three this time, otherwise there is no Griffin gate.
"Uncle! Father! Altea!" Zenobia obviously recognized each other and rushed up to hug one by one.
After a short happy gathering, she immediately calmed down her excited heart, took one of the middle-aged men in black dress and said, "uncle, this is the master I invited from Dalaran to specially solve the problem of the dead in crow ridge. Although he is young, she is actually deeply trusted by the great master ansrem ruinviwal."
"Hello, young mage, I'm Duke ello eblock. Next to me are my brother Baron Carlton and daughter Altea. Thank you very much for coming to help us solve the problem of crow ridge." ello eblock bowed down and saluted.
"Please don't mention it, Duke. Your niece has paid enough. If there is no other order, please arrange a guide for us as soon as possible. I hope we can finish it in three days." Zhang Cheng didn't waste any words and asked directly.
In the twilight, the forest is shrouded in gray fog, so it is an impossible task to fly by on a Griffin.
Because crow ridge is not like night town. It lights up a lot of torches and braziers, which can be identified from a long distance. It won't take long to get lost. It's impossible to confirm the location from above. We can only walk or ride in the most traditional way.
Duke elroe ebrock undoubtedly did not expect that the young man standing in front of him was so urgent that he didn't even have the meaning of polite words. He wanted to start at once.
However, he looked up at the sky and quickly replied with an embarrassed face: "I'm really sorry, Mr. mage. Although I admire your vigorous action, it will be dark in less than an hour. I'm afraid no guide will be willing to follow you out of the night town."
"What do you mean?" Zhang Cheng frowned subconsciously.
"Literally! Once it gets dark, all kinds of terrible monsters will appear in the twilight forest, such as giant spiders, wolves and ogres. Recently, I heard that some bandits haunt abandoned farms in the West. If you are unlucky, you will encounter some tigers and leopards from thorns valley. As for places close to crow ridge, the dead are rampant. Leaving the town is basically equivalent to suicide. I suggest you'd better take a night off and wait until dawn tomorrow, "altaia, wearing black scales, explained.
"That's all?!" Zhang Cheng looked up at the other party without expression, and his tone showed a touch of disdain.
Perhaps for ordinary people, these beasts and monsters are indeed a little dangerous, but they are not even a fart in the eyes of elite mages.
The most important thing is that he doesn't intend to waste too much time here. After that, he has to go south to thorns valley.
damn! What a nuisance!
Altaia cursed silently in the bottom of her heart, turned back and exchanged a color with her father, and finally sighed helplessly: "Alas, well, since you insist, I'll arrange it now..."
