When Lordaeron's watchtower lieutenant officer Old John, with the assistance of the two brothers beside him, cut off the head of the last ferocious ghoul that rushed forward alone and cut it into pieces, he He, the twenty soldiers under him, and the hundreds of refugees from Lordaeron stood awkwardly beside the mountain road, huddled in a pile, staring blankly at the huge lava stone man at the foot of the mountain in front of them. The formation of the undead is raging...
After getting past the obstructing humans behind him, the lava giant Otuk, who was no longer afraid of accidental injuries, could finally play as he pleased!
Its right foot was raised up high, and then it stepped hard into the pile of undead. Then, the humans behind only heard a "boom", and at this loud sound, the ground shook. Afterwards, a large crater with footprints emanating from flames appeared on the ground that was originally full of undead. Except for the undead near the big foot who were crushed and pressed into the pit, all the other undead were crushed by the lava. The high-temperature flames released by the giant burned it into ashes.
At the same time, this was not over yet. Near Otuk's foothold, the ground began to shake. Scattered small lava spurs suddenly appeared under the ground within an area of at least a hundred yards, and were The undead shrouded in the thrust range were smashed into pieces by the stone piles rushing up from under their feet...
Two brave ghouls howled and charged towards the lava giant. They were not afraid of the high temperature and used their sharp and ferocious fangs and claws to gnaw and grab the giant's rocky instep before they could even chew it off. A few hard and hot rocks were easily shaken away by Otuk, and then easily trampled into a puddle of flesh with his other foot!
They were having a good fight with humans, but suddenly they encountered such a big guy who came to disrupt the situation. The undead scourges suddenly exploded in their nests. Those zombie skeletons that only acted on instinct raised their weapons and dropped them. After grabbing the humans, they turned around and swarmed towards the lava giant Otuk, who was the biggest and most taunting target.
One of the medium-sized sewing abominations was able to throw its long chained hook onto the lava giant's ankle, but before it could exert any force to pull the giant down, it was violently slammed by Otuk. The ground flinched, only to be pulled over by the lava giant. Then, before it had time to stand up, it was severely stepped on by Otuk's other big raised foot, and it instantly turned into a puddle of large plasticine drooping in the mud... ..
However, even so, the defense of the undead was still not over. When the lava giant Otuk turned around and prepared to attack the undead behind him, there was a muffled "pop" sound, and a corpse was about to be thrown into the air by a meat grinder. And hit it accurately, hitting Otuk's shoulder. After all, it's a bit too big, so it's hard to miss even if you hit it!
The green plague gas and corpses exploded instantly, dyeing Otuk's shoulders a small patch of green. Unfortunately, before these plagues had time to take effect, they were immediately exploded by the steaming flames from the lava giant's body. The body parts stuck to the shoulders were quickly burned to a sizzling sound, and after a while, they were burned into a pool of black charcoal...
"The dirty thing...Otuk...is going to be angry...and I'll crush you..."
When he saw that these low-level undead creatures dared to hit him with dirty things, Otuk became angry. He roared and took two big steps forward. He leaned over and took the minced meat that he planned to continue loading and firing. The car was picked up with one hand, and then, without thinking, it was thrown directly to the other side, towards the place where the undead natural disasters were most concentrated! With the blessing of its huge power, the meat grinder hit the ground at an extremely high speed, and disintegrated the moment it touched the ground. The high-speed wood and iron pieces that were smashed directly smashed the area. The undead were swept away into a pile of broken pieces!
"Hum...ha...ha..." Otuk began to shake his body and let out bursts of deep and heavy laughter.
These little undead were no match for it. In just a short period of three to five breaths, it completely disrupted the formation of the undead and killed at least two to three hundred undead!
However, this is not enough! Far from enough! Otuk planned to continue playing like this. You know, when it was in the Land of Fire, where could it play so happily? All the flame creatures there are related to each other, not to mention the fire demon, which he definitely wouldn’t dare to mess with! Not to mention the lava dogs, fire eagles, and fire turtles. Their groups are too big, and Otuk can't afford to offend them either!
Even if Otuk accidentally steps on a fire scorpion while walking on the road, their huge female scorpion will come to settle the score in a minute! Otherwise, where do you think the flame crystal that Otuk bribed Shane Nox came from?
However, this place is different now. Now this is the main material world of Azeroth! Moreover, Her Majesty the Queen has said that they can kill undead like the ones in front of them at will and fight as they want!
So, after reaching out and crushing a ghoul that climbed on his shoulder and tried to attack his head, Otuk raised his left foot high again, intending to kill all these undead. Use your big feet to crush them, knock them over with your insteps, and then burn them with the flames from your body!
...
At the foot of the mountain not far from the battlefield between the undead and the lava giants, a group of humans just stared blankly at the lava giants fighting the undead army in front of them. Even John, a veteran who had experienced two orc wars and traveled half of the Eastern Kingdom, couldn't figure out what kind of monster he was in front of him who suddenly ran out to help him and others fight the undead?
At first glance, Old John felt that the big guy in front of him seemed somewhat similar to the stone man he had seen in the Arathi Highlands, but at the same time there was a big difference!
The guy in front of me is not only bigger and more powerful, but under its dark red stone shell, what seeps out from the cracks in its joints is actually an oozing bright red color!
This shows what? This shows that underneath the appearance of this stone man, there is a blazing high-temperature core inside its body! This shows that the big guy in front of you is not the ordinary moss-covered rock giant from the Arathi Highlands. That kind of stone man is completely different from the one in front of you in terms of shape and color! He also heard that the stone giants in the Alashang Highlands were earth elemental creatures, and could the current one be of fire?
The lava giant in front of them, whether they are the humans of Lordaeron or the undead opposite, are all only a little taller than the thick soles of this giant monster's feet. Even the middle-sized patchwork abomination, It can only reach as high as its knees, otherwise, the abomination just now wouldn't have been crushed by its kick and turned into a disgusting puddle of flesh.
"So what, Sergeant Jude..., is that big guy in front of you the helper you asked for?"
After seeing that the lava giants didn't care about their human side, they just passed them, and then began to charge into the thousands of undead armies, smashing the undead formation into a mess.
As the temporary supreme commander, Old John finally had time to speak. Now, Old John and his twenty Lordaeron shield soldiers were just standing there, inexplicably watching the excitement in the distance. They could no longer intervene in the battle between the big man and the undead. Once you get started, if you step in and interfere, you will be accidentally injured...
"If I knew such a powerful helper, would I still be afraid of those undead? Huh! To be honest, boss, I thought it was chasing us at the beginning! I was so scared that I quickly used the strength of my breasts to fight again. I ran out of the canyon, oh my god, I ran twice this time, so I’m really exhausted!”
After finishing speaking, Jude didn't care about anything else. He stuck the sword upright on the grass, dropped the shield on his left arm, took off his helmet, and then sat directly on his shield to rest. stand up.
He, Jude, was just an ordinary guard of Lordaeron's sentry tower. He was fully armed just now and ran back and forth twice in light plate armor, which almost exhausted him to death! Now, after seeing that he and others were temporarily safe, he no longer cared about military discipline and just slumped on the ground.
"That's strange, why doesn't it attack us?"
This is the strangest thing about Old John. This huge monster cannot have an affair with Lordaeron! He has never heard of any country in the alliance having such a thing. Even those arrogant elves or Dalaran, which is famous for its magic, they only have some magic puppets at most!
Besides, old John is not blind. The huge thing in front of him has nothing to do with a constructed puppet. It looks more like a huge stone giant like the one on the Arathi Highlands? Oh no! To be precise, it should be the flaming stone giant? Is it really a fire elemental creature? However, he has also seen the kind of balrogs summoned by mages. How can they be as big as before?
"How do I know? How about you go over and ask it yourself?" Jude replied angrily while taking a big breath to regain his strength.
...
"Head! Tell me, what should we do now? Take advantage of the fact that it has no time to pay attention to us. Otherwise, should we take this opportunity to sneak away?" Next to Old John, another Lordaeron shield guard walked away. Came over and asked.
He was a little worried, fearing that after this big monster had taken care of the undead, it would come back to take care of the living people. In that case, it would be very bad! After all, the strength gap between the two sides is really too big. Let alone setting fire to the ground and stabbing the ground. If someone just walks over and stamps on them, they will all be finished!
"We must go, but where should we go?" Old John thought for a while and thought that it would be a better choice to leave this place of right and wrong as soon as possible. However, he was a little undecided on where to go.
"We can continue to the southwest, directly to the Cathedral or the Hand of Tyr?" The guard suggested to Old John without even thinking about it.
"...Idiot! If you miss, just go over there! Don't even look at it. This big guy has made such a big noise here. The undead monsters around him will definitely be attracted to it. We've come here, how dare you go out now? If you want to die, don't drag us with you, I still want to live for a few more years!"
Old John wants to go to the Cathedral or Hand of Tyr sooner than anyone else. He even wants to go directly along the road to Andorhal, or even better, to the capital of Lordaeron in Tirisfal! But is this possible? Now leading such a large group of people on a long journey in a territory where the undead are ravaging? I'm afraid that within two days of walking, they would be caught and torn alive by the undead!
If it were only Old John and his twenty elite soldiers, he must have taken advantage of the chaos and ran south. But now, he is still taking these hundreds of refugees with him, unless he can be cruel and leave these refugees alone!
"Then tell me, where should we go? To the north? Or into the canyon?" the soldier shouted dissatisfied, and the others began to whisper among themselves.
"Enter the canyon!" Gritting his teeth, Old John quickly made a decision.
No matter how you look at it now, the only option is to enter the canyon. Going out in this situation is definitely a dead end. And this huge lava stone man came out of the canyon. Judging from the way it is currently fighting the undead, it is very Maybe there are no undead in the canyon anymore, so it would be better for the group of them to go in and find a place to settle than to go out and die now!
"But..." The soldier still had some doubts. He crashed into the place where the big guy came out without any investigation. Is this really good?
"It's nothing, just leave quickly!"
Old John called out and asked his other brothers and the refugees to follow him into the canyon. After a while, the undead came to their senses. If they turn around and cause trouble for living people like themselves, it will be difficult to leave! When he turned around and saw Jude, who was sitting on the ground resting and still trying to unbutton his armor, he finally couldn't help but go up and kick him hard.
"Asshole! Who are you showing your bear-like appearance to me now? Stand up right now! Take your shield and weapon, remember, Sergeant Jude! You are a glorious Legion soldier of the Kingdom of Lordaeron. On the battlefield, Go up, never let your weapons and shields leave your hands easily, they are your life! They are everything to you! If you leave them, you are not far from death!"
