Chapter 11 Section VIII

Ravencrest on the mount respects the moon god, and it seems that he is very happy to know Tyrande.Then he looked at Illidan again: "I still remember how we met. You were studying art at that time." He touched his chin and asked, "Aren't you the moon guard?" He asked this, which actually showed that he already knew the answer.Ravencrest had paid close attention to Illidan since they met.It flattered him, and made him a little uncomfortable.Before he had done anything at all, he had already caused La Fincrest's note. "Not yet, sir." "Then you are not subject to any taboos, right?" His so-called taboos are that once he becomes a moon guard, he must abide by certain oaths.Because the moon guard must be loyal to the queen, there must be no ambiguity.

"I think so." "Very good, very good. Then I hope you can join our team." Tyrande and Illidan were helpless at once.Possibly worried about Illidan's safety, Tyrande said, "Lord Ravencrest, we are honored—" Before she could finish speaking, he made a motion to stop talking. "Not you, priest. As much as I am grateful for the grace of the Moon Goddess, I only need this young man." Illidan tried his best to hide his growing anxiety, so he asked, "Your Excellency, why do you need me?" "For now, it's about investigating the fugitives! I just found out about the news. I think the fugitives haven't been caught yet. I have a way to find them, but I need some magic help. Of course the moon guards can do it, but I'm looking for something stronger."

Ordinarily, it was inconceivable to refuse the request of such a high-level night elf.But now his joining means that Malfurion will be in danger.Tyrande cast a furtive glance at Illidan, to see what he was thinking.But Illidan hoped that Tyrande could help him point the way. In fact, there is only one option. "I am honored to join, Your Excellency." "Great! Rothalak, prepare a mount for this young wizard." His subordinates immediately brought an idle night saber, it seemed that Ravencrest always wanted Illidan to join their team.The nightsaber crouched down, allowing his new master to mount.

"It is still noon, my lord," said Rothalak.Just then Ravencrest handed the reins to Illidan, Malfurion's twin brother. "You'll try as hard as we do, won't you?" Illidan knew what Ravencrest meant.He knew that his magic power was weaker during the day, but Ravencrest still felt that it could come in handy.He had high hopes for Illidan, which made Illidan's blood boil. "I will not disappoint your kindness, sir." "Excellent, young man!" Illidan mounted his mount and cast a quick glance at Tyrande, signaling her not to worry about Malfurion and the orc Brox.He is going with Ravencrest now, and will try his best to help him, but the only prerequisite is that the two of them can escape smoothly.

Tyrande just smiled faintly, showing a little gratitude.Feeling ready, Illidan nodded to Ravencrest. Ravencrest waved goodbye to the crowd and set off with his cavalry.Illidan leaned forward to keep pace with the team.He wanted to please Ravencrest while protecting his unselfish older brother.Malfurion knew the surrounding terrain well, and must have left the Moon Guard and the soldiers far behind.If it is really unfortunate to be caught, then Illidan would rather sacrifice Brox to save his brother.Tyrande should understand.He will do his best to prevent this from happening.Blood is thicker than water, family love always comes first.

As usual, the city was shrouded in a morning mist.The fog will clear soon, so this may be an opportunity for Malfurion to make a quick escape.Illidan looked straight ahead, wondering if this was the road his brother had just walked.It is possible that the moon guards were chasing in the wrong direction at all, so Ravencrest's current actions would become futile. As the team marched, the dense fog quickly cleared.The morning sun was so strong that it seemed to drain Illidan of his energies, as if eager to devour the dense fog.Moreover, this situation is somewhat abnormal.But he ground his teeth, not thinking so much.If Ravencrest asked him to show his magic, he would not let him down.Going to hunt Brox now has allowed Illidan to establish a new connection with the leader of the night elves. In fact, the escape of the orcs has nothing to do with Illidan.

When they reached the ridge, Illidan frowned at the sight in the distance, and Ravencrest cursed.He had to slow down his pace.Small mounds of earth spread out in front of my eyes.The night elves could only cautiously make their way around the other side of the ridge, their weapons ready.Here comes Illidan's chance to show his skills. "Azshara bless." Ravencrest muttered to himself. Illidan couldn't say anything.When they approached the mound, he was stunned to find dead bodies all over the ground. At least six night elves, including two moon guards, had been ripped apart.The bodies of the two wizards had been sucked dry, like fruits left in the sun for a long time without cooking.It is conceivable that they resisted bravely before they died, and they were in great pain.

Five night sabers were also dead, some had their throats torn off, and some internal organs were dragged out of their bodies. "I'm right!" Ravencrest said suddenly, "That green-skinned guy is definitely not fighting alone! There must be accomplices, at least two." Illidan didn't pay much attention to what he said, but thought that Malfurion had fought such a fierce and tough battle here. This really doesn't look like the result of his brother or the orc fighting alone, otherwise the current situation wouldn't be so miserable.Is Ravencrest right?Did Brox kidnap Malfurion and take him to join his race?

I should have killed the beast when I had the chance!Illidan clenched his fists, furious.Now that the goal is clear, it's time to prove his strength to Ravencrest. Suddenly a soldier shouted, he found something next to the body. "Your Excellency, come and see! I have never seen such a thing!" After the night saber was settled, Ravencrest and Illidan immediately opened their eyes wide to see if there was any major discovery. It was a nightmarish creature that looked like a wolf, but had been terribly deformed, as if created by a demented god in a state of extreme madness.Even though he was dead, his face was still terrifying.

"What do you think it is, wizard." In an instant, Illidan even forgot that he was a wizard.He shook his head and told the truth: "I don't know, sir." Despite his terrifying appearance, he must have experienced a fierce battle before he died. A branch was stuck in his throat, and he seemed to have been stabbed to death. Illidan thought of his brother again.When they parted, my brother said that he was going to run towards the forest.Was it Malfurion?It seems impossible.Had he died nearby, torn apart as easily as the two moon guards? "Strange," muttered Ravencrest.He stood up straight suddenly, looked forward, and asked, "Where are the rest?" He didn't know who he was asking. "There should be another part of the body!"

Just as someone was about to answer, a tragic horn sounded from the south, where the forest seemed to have collapsed suddenly, and it became more and more difficult to climb over. Ravencrest immediately waved his broadsword and pointed in the direction where the horn sounded. "There! But be careful, there may be such monsters around!" The cavalry all began to move forward.Every elf, including Illidan, trembled.Although the horn did not sound again.But that doesn't seem like a good sign. After walking for a while, they saw another nightsaber carcass. Its sides were torn open by its claws, and its spine was broken by an oak tree.Not far away, another moon guard was crushed under a boulder, his body completely deformed.His terrifying expression made the bravest soldiers in the cavalry ranks break out in a cold sweat. "Hold on!" Ravencrest ordered. "Stay in formation!" The horn sounded again, this time slightly weaker, but closer. A group of people hurried to the direction of the source of the sound.Illidan had an ominous feeling, as if something was watching him from behind.But whenever he looked back, he saw only the forest. "There is one more, Your Excellency." A night elf named Rosalak pointed forward and blurted out. Yes, there was another terrible monster lying on the ground, already dead.Its body lay open lazily, as if it was looking for someone before it died.The nose was crushed, the shoulders were torn apart, and there were several rope-shaped marks on the legs, which was very strange.Who killed it?Is it a well-armed night elf?A night elf was crushed under the monster. Nearby, they found the bodies of two more trained warriors, strewn about like tattered dolls.Illidan felt very strange if the night elves really killed these two monsters.What about the surviving elves? It was a while before they found what was left. A soldier was sitting by a tree. His left hand was broken, but such a serious injury was only covered with a bandage.He was in a daze, and didn't look at the cavalry team that had just arrived. The horn was still in his left hand, and his body was covered with blood. Next to him lay a surviving one—if half of his face was cut off and one leg was severely twisted, he was considered a survivor.He was breathing very hard. "You, what about you!" Ravencrast roared, "Look at me!" The survivor blinked slowly and had to look at him. "Is that all? Anything else?" He opened his mouth, but no sound came out. "Rothalak! Go and see his wounds! If he wants water, give him water!" "Yes, sir!" "The rest of you, stand apart!" Illidan still stayed next to Ravencrest, looking around cautiously, hoping that everything was safe.And some other colleagues, including the three wizards, had no combat effectiveness, so they were cheering for them. "Speak!" growled Ravencrast. "I order you! What's the matter? Where's the fugitive?" At this moment, the bloody soldier let out a wild laugh, Rosalak was so surprised that he took a step back. "No... didn't see the fugitive, my... sir!" replied the wounded soldier, "Perhaps he ate himself." "The beasts? The hounds?" The wobbly night elf nodded. "What the hell happened to the Moon Guard? Why didn't they stop this from happening? Especially during the day." The wounded soldier laughed again: "My...my lord, the moon guards were the first to die, and they were totally vulnerable." It took some hard work to figure out the truth of the matter.Soldiers and moon guards are hunting fugitives, and there's a guy who doesn't know who.From the time of morning mist until the sun came out.They didn't really see these two guys, but they believed that it was only a matter of time before they were caught. But then, unexpectedly encountered the first hell beast. No elf has ever seen such a terrible creature.Even the dead hell beast still made the night elf's nerves unable to calm down.Hugosen, the lead wizard, felt the magic in it.He told the others to wait, while he mounted his mount to check the corpses, and everyone obeyed his orders. "Unusual," said Hugosen, dismounting from his horse. "Tikkin," he called one of the moon guards, "I want you—" At this time, the second hell beast jumped on him. "The Hellbeast sprang out from the nearby woods, my lord. Then it pounced directly on Hugosen, first killed his mount with its claws, and then..." Wizards have no chance.Before the night elf could react, two terrifying tentacles stretched out from the Hellbeast's back, tightly wrapping around Hugosen's chest and forehead, and the moon guard screamed endlessly.No night elf had ever heard their cries before.Before long, their eyes were withered, their legs were skinned, and they were thrown far away by the monster. The other elves recovered from their shock.They rushed upon the Helbeast to avenge Hugosen's death. Who would have thought that the third hell beast had already come behind them, and was staring at it.The attacking party became the target instead, and they were surrounded. They are not opponents of hell beasts at all.Due to poor magic power, the Moon Guardian was quickly defeated.The soldiers did not fare much better, but fortunately their knives were still useful. The survivor's thinking became more and more confused. When he talked about how they were here at the end, Ravencrest and Illidan could only guess. Rosalak stepped forward to take a look and said, "He's passed out again, Your Excellency. I'm afraid he won't wake up again." "You find a way to help him relieve some pain, and you can also look at the other one." Ravencrest frowned, and said, "You still need to find a soldier to take care of these corpses. Wizard, come with me. " Illidan followed Ravencrest back to the original path.Two soldiers left their posts to chase the fugitives, and some soldiers were still checking nearby, but no other survivors were found. "Do you think this story is believable?" Ravencrest asked Illidan. "Have you ever heard of such a thing?" "Never, Your Excellency, but I'm not a moon guard, so I don't know anything about some mysterious inside information." "Look at what happened to them. Hugosen was too confident! So are many other Moon Guards!" Illidan was noncommittal. "Another one." This terrifying hell beast looked like it wanted to take something out of its throat.It was covered in bruises, its body had been eaten away by those carrion animals, and even flies came to join in the fun. Ravencrest ordered the two soldiers: "Check the road we passed again. The green monster... I still want to capture it alive." Both Illidan and Ravencrest dismounted.I saw Ravencrest draw his knife out of its sheath.None of the night sabers wanted to stay next to the corpse, so they were led to a nearby tree with their reins tied to the tree. Ravencrest returned to the corpse and knelt down. "It's just horrible! I've never faced so many corpses in all these years." He picked up a leathery tentacle. "It's a magical thing. Hurgosen was sucked dry by this thing!" What do you think it is?" The tentacles touched Illidan's face, tickling him a little, and he tried not to back away.He said, "Maybe it's a vampire, some animals do, but this one seems to be kind of magical." He looked around. "The other one was skinned." "Yes. There is magic." While Ravencrest continued his horrific experiments, Illidan was examining the hellbeast's corpse.Soldiers previously reported that the first hellbeast was dead.Then there is only one possibility left, and that is that Malfurion and Brox killed them.Judging from the signs of fighting left at the scene, it is more likely that it was done by Brooks. back aside.The night sabers were very impatient to stay next to the corpse, and while Illidan tried to keep them from shouting, he was still thinking about his brother.But-- Illidan immediately turned around: "My lord, we haven't found it yet." The roar of the mounts became louder and louder. Illidan felt something behind him. He hurried to hide aside, just happened to run into Ravencrest, and fell to his knees.Illidan hurried to help La Fincrest.Ravencrest's sword flew so far that neither of them could reach it. A huge claw crawled onto the hellbeast's corpse. "Who is it?" Ravencrest asked reluctantly.The mounts also joined the fight, but with the reins tied, they couldn't move. Illidan regained his composure.He saw the terrifying hell beast wanting to launch a second attack.The one he thought was dead It's extremely terrifying. I didn't expect the living hell beast to be even worse, even more ferocious. This time, the hellbeast didn't jump up, but used its tentacles to whip Illidan on the back.He suddenly thought of the skin of the Moon Guard he had just seen. The tentacles seemed to have magical powers, so Illidan quickly thought of protecting himself.As soon as he thought of the dead hell beast he had just seen, its tentacles were pulled off, and he quickly thought of a way to attack. He tried not to attack the monster head-on, because he also knew that it would be useless, it would only suck his magic, and drain his blood.So he cast magic on that knife of Ravencrest, and the Hellbeast couldn't see it at all. The enchanted sword rose rapidly into the air and began to spin, faster and faster.Illidan's target was the monster's neck. With great precision, the revolving knife sliced ​​through the behemoth's neck like grass. The monster screamed like a maniac, green viscous liquid flowed from its shoulders, it began to wobble, and finally fell down.It groaned, and finally closed its eyes on its last breath. Illidan succeeded, and thus regained a little confidence and was less afraid.He took Ravencrest's sword again.When the hell beast jumped up, he smiled coldly. He stabbed the monster to death.Maybe it was because of too much force, almost buried the knife in the monster's bones. The hell beast hesitated for a moment, and began to stumble when walking, eyes full of fear.He stumbled and took two more steps, then his limbs became weak and he collapsed on the ground.
