The entire fortress was still in the same tense state of war readiness as when he first arrived. He also saw many teams along the way that gave him a faint sense of oppression, just like the ones he met at the remote teleportation station. almost.
Only now did he notice a problem. The four people arrived in Harrogath through remote transmission, so they were most likely reinforcements from the Demon Fortress to deal with the threat posed by Taseris.
Since the appearance of the Purgatory Mirror, Harrogath has been under fierce attack until now. This kind of transfer has happened more than once. Chakrias, Capone and others came to Harrogas during previous transfers.
As for the Demon Fortress, while tightening manpower deployment, it was also forced to enter the most stringent alert state to guard against other crises. In this way, the pressure on everyone and every team can be imagined.
From Rogge Camp to Kurast Seaport, career changers can relax after training, chat in the tavern, and gamble with people from other teams. Even if it is not possible, they can also stay at their own residence or hotel. Get a good night's sleep.
But since they came to this fortress, they have never seen anyone engaging in any leisure activities. Being able to joke with each other seems to have become one of the few entertainments for these warriors.
Perhaps they have long been accustomed to this kind of environment and this kind of life, but it is inevitable that some will feel bored or even disgusted.
Especially for those who no longer have much to worry about. .
Back in the stone palace, Mo Bei only saw Kane sitting in front of the simple table, resting his forehead with his hands, and there was no sign of other team members.
Kane was still wearing the same coarse gray robe, which looked particularly thin in the cold wind that came in from time to time. Mo Bei stepped forward slowly and wanted to cover Kane with a blanket, but he still woke up.
"Well... you're back!"
"Elder Kane, go and have a good rest!" Mo Bei advised.
"I get little sleep as I get older, so I probably won't be able to sleep even if I lie down, so that's enough!" Kane stretched the arm that was supporting his head, took a deep breath, and cheered up.
"Where are the others?" Mo Bei estimated that what Kane said was true, so he stopped trying to persuade him and asked where his teammates were.
"They all spontaneously acted as helpers for Mara and Anya, either to send messages or to help transfer supplies. Oh, Perona is there." Kane said, raising his hand and pointing inside.
Mo Bei turned to look and found Perona in the middle of the stacks of bags containing grain. She was wrapped in a quilt made of fur and sleeping soundly.
She had been flying back and forth for such a long time, and she had to use her mental power to collect the escaped fire elements throughout the whole process. It was a huge drain on both her mental and physical strength. This should be the reason why everyone left her here alone.
Naturally, Mo Bei would not come forward to disturb her. Instead, he found another place to sit down, conveyed the message to Akali that he had returned, leaned back, and began to close his eyes and rest.
It was a pity that not long after he closed his eyes, he heard a faint horn, mixed with the sound of the wind.
In her sleep, Perona sat up like a conditioned reflex, rolled up the fur quilt, and rolled down from the pile of grains.
Although I had only heard such a horn sound once three days ago, I still remembered that this was the signal for the defense assembly in the fortress, so it seemed particularly sensitive.
Just three days later, a huge army of monsters gathered on the Bloody Hills again, forcing Harrogas to take the initiative and clear out as many demon trebuchets as possible before the monsters all pressed up.
On the other hand, it is necessary to send almost the same number of manpower to conduct a dragnet search on the Arreat Plateau to find the location of the purgatory mirror and destroy it.
It's just that this time because of the existence of Taseris, the search team has to ensure a sufficient scale and cannot be dispersed as before. This will definitely slow down the progress of the search. If it is not discovered for a long time, or this domain-level The banshee simply stayed near the purgatory mirror, making it impossible to attack for a long time, and the people on the Bloody Hills had to endure the monster's impact for a longer time.
"How do you plan to act this time? Will you meet the enemy outside the city, or join the search team?" Kane asked.
"Go out of the city to meet the enemy." Mo Bei answered without hesitation.
Their top priority is to level up as quickly as possible in the areas where monsters are most densely populated. When joining the search team, they must avoid fighting as much as possible. Instead, they must avoid the larger monsters on the plateau, which will not level up at all. the goal of.
Kane nodded and reminded worriedly:
"It is rumored that Azmodan, the King of Sin, is a vicious and vindictive demon. His command ability is not inferior to Baal's, but because of this, his performance on the battlefield is always slightly inferior. And Seti, the Queen of Jealousy Ya, you are not a character who accepts defeat. With parents like this, if Taseres ruined the ambush plan by you, he will definitely hold a special grudge against you."
"I'm worried that it will regard you as its main hunting target. You must be more vigilant and not distance yourself from those high-level teams, especially Perona, and you must not expose your flying ability easily."
"Well! We will be more vigilant! And with so many pairs of eyes watching at the same time, it shouldn't be that easy for Taseres to approach quietly like last time. As long as you are careful, you can still make a response in time. Yes." Mo Bei promised.
While talking, Milor, Ned, Akali and Alvin also returned one after another, and they were all ready for the war. A group of six people went to the square to gather.
Between the ancient towers facing the bloody hills, the rune-cast iron fences were raised with a clanging sound. Hundreds of job-changers who were ready to go rushed out of the open city gate in an orderly manner and quickly divided into groups. A team of more than fifty people spread out on the hills with clear goals, charging towards various monsters.
And just above them, a black spot passed through the low-hanging gray clouds, appearing like a shadow in the clouds.
Taseres looked down at the scattered human teams with cold eyes, and raised the corners of his mouth slightly, like a vulture staring at the fleeing prey, but disdainfully.
At this distance, it would be difficult for job-changers on the ground to spot its figure hidden in the clouds, and it could not spot Mo Bei and Perona among the hundreds of people.
In her opinion, the two humans with the ability to fly must be searching for the origin node on the Arreat Plateau.
The task assigned to it by the Lord of Destruction is to put pressure on Harrogath. In this case, giving priority to cutting off those two special beings will definitely deal a substantial blow to the human side and relieve the hatred in his heart.
Then, it suddenly let out a menacing banshee scream downwards, intending to use this method to shroud the bloody hills in its shadow, so that even if it left this place, it would still make those humans fearful and frightened.
Seeing the humans below looking up, it grinned ferociously, flapped its wings, rushed into the clouds, and flew towards the northern highlands.
