I won't say who it is in Chapter 540...
The owner of the voice was familiar; Lorraine had encountered countless enemies along her journey—numbers that could be counted on one hand, if not tens of thousands...
I've seen arrogant people.
Crazy,
persistent
Weird...
The names of many of the treacherous and vicious demons and monsters that Lorraine killed are probably almost forgotten.
......
In a fantastical world brimming with the arcane energy of Titan creations and the Well of Eternity, encountering dinosaurs and sentient statues is nothing unusual... This is a world where magical beasts exist, with dragons and colossi dwelling in mountains, lakes, seas, underground, and forests...
Ordinary people can only try their best to become stronger, unite, and protect and build their homeland...
Fighting monsters, competing with other races...
Even the most powerful elephant can be devoured by ants...
Therefore, the power of the collective is always strong!
......
However, Lorraine witnessed a demonic dreadlord leading a band of Forsaken soldiers in attacks on human territory, often with the aim of creating unnecessary death and chaos.
Seize the territory of the living...
Perhaps this will benefit Her Majesty's revenge.
Perhaps it's just a slogan that unites everyone's strength to achieve the collective goal.
In the name of the tribe, in the name of the Queen of Undercity, there will always be some clever people in the world who can spout lofty ideals and knowledge, whose slogans resound loudly, but in reality, they are never truly of one mind...
It's a troublemaker, a spy planted by the shadows, a chameleon that changes its tune with the wind and cheers the flag...
However, such people can easily become fanatical and proactive, occupying high positions. Their goals are not actually aligned with those of the majority; they merely use the group as an excuse to achieve their own private goals, and this situation becomes the mainstream.
Originally aiming for tribal glory, tribal warriors often perished in meaningless and absurd conflicts.
This has become a source of pride and achievement that some chameleons boast about everywhere...
Such individuals act like bombs, vampires, and termites within a group... eroding everyone's enthusiasm and will, ultimately turning a group with faith into a disorganized mess, devoid of fighting spirit, honor, and even more so, shame or the will to strive...
The leader knew perfectly well that the Dreadlord's loyalty was questionable, yet he still chose to use the Dreadlord...
What does that mean?
This shows that the Dreadlords are extremely intelligent; they understand the leader's mind, always cheer for the leader, and always manage to keep some stubborn and naive individuals in check... Lorraine, once a kind-hearted youth—no, a young man, now nearing old age...
In the teacher's five-star evaluation, Lorraine used to be a nice guy, a bit of a goofball, and a worrier...
Now they've become bad, shrewd, and hardened their hearts...
Lorraine was finally able to distinguish between good and evil, right and wrong... Compared to the true honor and interests of the faction, right and wrong were not the primary considerations. The key was whether the trend and outcome were truly beneficial to the whole, whether they would harm the interests of the core figures, or affect their ideals.
Orgrimmar hopes Undercity can establish itself in the Eastern Kingdoms, but not become too powerful... The Forsaken's plea for help was verbally accepted by the Horde Warchief, who promised continued support in terms of supplies, air transport, and warships...
He did not want to escalate the war with humanity.
Even among his own allies and allied races in Kalimdor, Thrall did not want these conservatives to become too powerful. Therefore, he wanted to preserve those traitors who had already shown their true colors, so that under the guise of following the clues, he would not eliminate them completely. He even wanted to make good use of the power of orc warlocks and undead alchemists to help the Horde open up new opportunities.
The forgotten are always the pitiful forgotten.
......
A leader who is always playing mind games and engaging in power struggles is definitely not worth following.
A person dancing on three eggs isn't necessarily a skilled acrobat; they're usually a clown...
A virtuous and just monarch understands the proper use of force and wisdom, as well as the importance of legacy and credibility. This was the political philosophy that King Terenas Menethil II of Lordaeron, the father of the great filial son, instilled in his prince from a young age: the king's methods and the support of the people...
Unfortunately, the fallen prince ultimately chose to use direct and insane violence without caution. Instead, he chose to slaughter everything in his path, using devastation to cover up his incompetence and cowardice.
This led to a tragedy.
......
Thrall, the Warchief of the Horde, had an excellent reputation, basking in the glow of wisdom and the liberation of slaves. Yet, he was fully aware of the traitors stirring up trouble in Orgrimmar, the Shadow Council's cancerous influence, which not only outwardly obeyed but also colluded with the Apothecaries' Guild in Undercity to make moves.
He often used the excuse of not having enough energy to attend to everything.
Sitting foolishly atop the chieftain's treasure, muttering to himself, daydreaming and pretending to be clueless, while claiming to be busy... just like some bosses who spend all day in the office procrastinating on important matters, only to say at night that they can finally calm down and think things through, finally considering the group's future development...
His subordinates were all baffled...
Having brought back the belligerent Garrosh, Thrall also intends to suppress this volatile new chieftain of the Warsong Clan...
The warlocks of the Fireblade Clan are causing trouble right under our noses, and the High Chieftain has entrusted such a crucial task of eliminating these traitors to unreliable players, sending mercenaries from the Adventurers' Guild—a bunch of hotheads—to handle a crisis that could potentially overthrow the Horde's regime and to aid Undercity in its impending doom...
Always appeasement, always indecisive, always afraid of war, always looking before acting, always resorting to balancing acts...
Thrall losing the Horde's loyalty is only a matter of time...
The Warsong Clan will inevitably turn against the Frostwolf Clan. Even the loyal Warchief Kor'kronben Guard could not understand why the orcs acted as if they were atoning for their sins when the enemy was threatening them with their lives.
Are the tribe's heroes being judged by humans?
Who would dare provoke Aegwynn and her son, who opened the Dark Portal and ruled with impunity and immense power? Sargeras, the Dark Titan and master of the demonic army, was conquering worlds in the star system where the Pantheon was located; who would dare challenge him? And who cared about the Black Dragonflight, who occupied Blackrock Mountain and enslaved and oppressed the Dark Iron dwarves?
If it weren't for the internal crisis being brought up.
If the threat of shadow and death is insurmountable...
Even the powerful Naaru could only abduct the prophet Velen and flee with their people. The so-called high-level intelligent race, the Eredar, within the Burning Legion, were all elevated to demigod-level beings, at the very least becoming lords or commanders...
Once they arrived in Outland, they couldn't even defeat the local savage orcs, and were even corrupted by fel energy...
In short, when faced with danger and conflict, strength is an abstract concept. Fighting will, skills, reaction, and belief—things that are invisible and intangible—are the key to victory or defeat.
Therefore, it seems that Lorraine and Lilith are completely helpless against the lava behemoth, and are also in dire straits...
Poisoning prevents spellcasting...
A mage and a priest who cannot cast spells are essentially reduced to mortals... or even worse than mortals, for magic-based classes.
Lorraine had originally intended to escape, but the other party immediately shut down the mechanism, blocking her escape route.
Lorraine gritted his teeth angrily, turned around, and wanted to see who had set this trap for him.
Lilith was now much more lucid. She pulled Lorraine back, preventing him from easily squeezing out of the stone statue's gaping maw... The lava hounds outside were no joke... They had extremely high magic resistance, were completely immune to fire magic, and were incredibly tough—on the battlefield, they were world-destroying weapons of mass destruction...
If they weren't so difficult to control, the Horde and Alliance's fragile defenses would have collapsed long ago just from the Lava Hounds' attacks...
The Balrog and the Black Dragon Prince are not actually allies; they are merely neighbors with their own conflicts and disagreements. They are unwilling to share information regarding the different research directions on life by the Lava Hound, the Chromatic Dragon, and the Scourge...
Otherwise, who knows what kind of monsters they might create...
A strange thought flashed through Lorraine's mind, and he completely ignored Lilith's objections...
The appearance of lava hounds in Ragefire Chasm is actually quite reasonable... Although the land has shattered into countless pieces, the main continents are Kalimdor, the Eastern Kingdoms across the sea, and the glacier-covered lands of Northrend.
However, in ancient times, even prehistoric times, elemental lords could move freely underground, as long as there was lava and fire...
Ragnaros's long-cherished wish was to conquer the lands of the Stonemother, to burn away the oceans of the Water Elementals, to let fire engulf the storms... and to rule the surface of Azeroth alone...
Unfortunately, before the four elemental lords could finish their civil war, they became slaves of the Old Gods. Having barely become collaborators, they were immediately met with the Titans descending with their guardians and suffering a brutal beating...
