After Frostmourne devoured the souls of the undead, Arthas left quickly. He had already helped Maiev get rid of the most troublesome soldiers. With her level, it was impossible for her to fail to seize such an opportunity.
Moreover, Maiev's escape can also distract part of the devil's attention, allowing him to enter the Black Crow Fortress more easily.
After squatting in a hidden corner for a while, the originally silent fortress finally began to boil again - the undead discovered Maiev's disappearance and were tracing the whereabouts of the watcher.
A large number of Black Crow Guards were searching and patrolling the courtyard, and several sergeants were surrounding the forge where Maiev's armor and weapons had been confiscated, trying to find any traces left by Maiev.
However, Maiev was caught by them for the first time because she was not prepared in advance and fell into their encirclement while tracking Gul'dan's whereabouts.
Now that Maiev is in the dark again, and her goal has become to escape from the fortress, the Black Crow Guards will have to work harder to find the whereabouts of this watcher.
And Maiev did not disappoint Alsace. In just a few dozen minutes, a considerable part of the Black Crow Fortress's defense force was transferred away.
For a demon, leaving such a dangerous opponent like Maiev Shadowsong in his territory is quite terrifying.
But what the demons didn't know was that when their wishful thinking took off, another more dangerous character had already passed through their confident undead defense line and entered the interior of the Black Crow Fortress.
After entering from the main hall, several souls that were stronger than ordinary elves but constantly echoed with pain caught his attention. The Burning Legion seemed to be twisting them.
Creepy wails and whimpering echoed in the empty halls inside Black Crow Fortress, as the claws of the Burning Legion were twisting the minds of these dead souls.
Arthas turned a deaf ear to the screams of these dead souls: As for the miserable dead souls, he had seen more in Northrend, and now was not the time to show sympathy.
Moreover, in order to truly put these undead out of pain, we still need to fundamentally help them get rid of the control of the Burning Legion.
This is exactly what Alsace will do next.
The interior of Black Crow Fortress is also extremely complex. Compared to the spacious courtyard, there are not even many undead stationed inside the dead Black Crow Fortress.
Resurrecting and twisting the will of the dead elven warriors cannot be completed in a day. It seems that the wizards of the Burning Legion first focused on the periphery of the fortress.
Alsace moved silently and quickly inside the fortress. The vision and perception of the only undead were blinded by him, and they did not notice that a large living person had sneaked into the fortress.
The steel boots stepped on the hard metal ground inside the fortress without making the slightest sound. Arthas was completing a task that could make even the most famous stalkers and assassins stunned.
However, Alsace's progress stopped when he reached the ascending stairs of the fortress.
On the floors below, the defense force is a loose group of undead guards and mages, but going up, you come to the core area controlled by demons.
It is absolutely not advisable to imitate the movement methods of the lower levels there. Demons not only have sensitive perception, but their vision does not require the burning of soul fire.
Arthas's eyes lit up with blue light, and his soul vision allowed him to immediately see clearly the situation on the upper level.
Compared to the lower level, which had no undead defense, the upper level was almost completely surrounded by all kinds of demons, and some little demons were looting the treasures left in Black Crow Castle.
There were too many, and even for Alsace, it was definitely not a good idea to force his way through.
Even if there were no big demons inside that could pose a threat to him, such a huge number, coupled with the complex terrain of Black Crow Castle, would be enough to delay him for a long time.
Arthas' true target was the Dreadlord Dantalinax, who was trying to distort Ravencrest's judgment - speaking of which, most of his hunting targets were Dreadlords.
Maybe at some point he will also be given the title of a Nasrezim Hunter.
After all, the demons sent by the Burning Legion to infiltrate civilization and act alone are basically Dread Lords, so these guys naturally become Alsace's best targets.
But there was some trouble at the moment. Low-level demons were blocking Alsace's way. It was much more difficult to get around these demons than to get around the undead at the door.
He didn't know if the Dread Lords had gotten the news, because he had killed more than one or two Nasrezim, and the Burning Legion should have realized that someone was hunting lone high-level demons.
Things were pretty much what Arthas had guessed. Just as he was trying to bypass the demon's eyes and ears and enter the top floor of the fortress, the Dreadlord disguised as Ravencrest's advisor Latusius was talking to Gul'dan of the Night Fortress. .
Gul'dan used the abundant magical energy in the Night Fortress to easily contact Dantalinax.
The Dread Lord used sleeping magic to put Ravencase's soul into a deep sleep. He was not particularly happy and said to Gul'dan, "Such a sudden contact may very well cause Ravencase to escape my control."
The right arm of the orc warlock holding the scepter in the picture is completely condensed by the fire of evil energy. He touches his arm, "Dantali Nax, I just want to remind you not to be too careless. , Diselok and Balnazzar have both died in the hands of humans, and that guy is still looking for the general of the Burning Legion.
My arm was completely destroyed by his holy light, and in the end I could only use evil energy to create a replacement. His power is so powerful that we cannot deal with it alone.
Not long ago, the Vrykul we sent to find the Shield of Aggramar were also wiped out by a guy suspected of being a Paladin. It was probably his hand. "
While describing Arthas' recent actions, Gul'dan said with concern, "Although you are in Black Crow Fortress, there are no other powerful demons to assist you. He is very likely to target you."
The orc warlocks never expected that someone could in turn hunt down the high-level demons of the Burning Legion. Powerful demons such as Nathrezim sometimes even require several archmages to confront them head-on.
But the human paladin had defeated the generals of the Burning Legion head-on many times, and the performance was very easy. Gul'dan suspected that unless Archimonde and Kil'jaeden personally took action, the Burning Legion wanted to kill Arthas. Si, I'm afraid a strict ambush needs to be prepared in advance.
High-level demons cannot be defeated by mortals alone. Even with the help of ordinary soldiers of the Burning Legion, they can even easily defeat the demigods of Azeroth.
But Arthas was an anomaly. He showed a power that was completely unmatched by one or two high-level demons. Under the cover of the demon army, Gul'dan even had an arm destroyed by him.
To this day, he can still feel the burning pain caused by the holy light at that time, which is more painful than having his entire arm cut off directly.
Dantalinax thought about Gul'dan's words, and the expression on the face of the elf could not help but freeze for a moment.
Of course he had heard about the hunting of the demon knight, but the Burning Legion focused all its attention on how to quickly defeat the resistance in Azeroth, and did not pay too much attention to the results of the local area.
The missions carried out by Balnazzar, Dieselok and Skovard were very dangerous, and losing their lives was not unbearable.
But his own Val'sharah is being invaded by nightmares, and coupled with the undead raging in Black Crow Fortress, he is just a commander sitting quietly in the command room.
Although he is also performing the mission alone, his safety is much higher than that of the previous ones. If the mysterious knight can find an opportunity in this way, then the Burning Legion may have to re-estimate the threat level of the opponent.
The difficulty of single-handedly defeating a Dreadlord is completely different from the difficulty of single-handedly infiltrating a heavily guarded fortress and assassinating the enemy's commander.
And Dantalinax's mission is very secretive. Although Gul'dan once came here to use evil energy to distort the undead in Black Crow Fortress, after taking over the command here, Dantalinax has been serving as an advisor. The identity of Latusius appears.
Whether it's stealth, safety or reliability, it's much higher than Diserok lurking alone in Stormwind City.
Gul'dan once again reminded Dantalinax to pay attention to whether Black Crow Fortress had been invaded. After that, he withdrew the magic call and continued to study how to use the power of the Eye of Aman'Thul.
Dantalinax frowned and pondered on the spot. Ravencase next to him was still sleeping. Suddenly, Latusius, who had transformed into the Dread Lord, twisted his body violently and avoided Ravencase. sneak attack.
"Ravencrest?! Are you crazy?"
As a qualified actor, Dantalinax will definitely not be a self-destruct truck, but will directly turn the conversation to Ravencase.
Ravencase calmly raised his sword and assumed a posture to continue attacking, "Latusius... you were not so agile ten thousand years ago."
Dantalinax hesitated, trying to pretend to be confused, "What are you talking about, Ravencrest? Has the devil bewitched you?"
At the same time, he began to check the soul control he had exerted on Ravencase. Only then did he discover that the soul spell on Ravencase had been broken without his knowledge, and Ravencase regained Free will!
But this is not something that scares Dantalinax. Ravencase himself is nothing, and it is not difficult to control him. But the person who secretly lifted the curse on Ravencase made Dantalina X was shocked.
who is it? After the fall of the Lich King, where else on Azeroth could such a master of the dead exist? !
