Chapter 142 Gran Village
A team of a thousand people set off in a mighty procession, heading eastward along the Kingdom Avenue of Stormwind Kingdom. It is said that it was Sir Lothar who, against all odds, built the highway connecting the Redridge Mountains and the Fertile Plains of the West within the kingdom.
Garin could see the pride on Valen's face, this kid is not that good.
The team passed through the town of Goldshire, Crystal Lake, Blackwell Pumpkin Farm, and crossed the Stonehenge River before the two teams parted ways.
Uther and his companions continued to move eastward into the Redridge Mountains, while Garen and his companions walked south along the direction of the Stonehenge River until they reached the Elwynn River, where they prepared to cross the river on a boat at the dock.
Garin stopped everyone. He wanted to show off. Now he would feel uncomfortable if he didn't show off!
He rode his horse forward, walked out of the team and came to the river. He did not stop even when he reached the edge of the riverbank. Then he waved his hand, and the air around him suddenly dropped and became extremely cold.
Then, the river in front of Garin froze. As the horse moved forward, the frozen area of the water expanded, and Garin walked all the way to the other side of the Elvin River.
This is a ten-meter-long river channel. Garin used Gandalf's ice magic to freeze the surface layer, forming an ice bridge that is five meters wide and more than ten centimeters thick. The water is still flowing under the ice bridge, rushing and fast.
Danas calmly pulled the reins and led the way onto the ice bridge. He knew that he must not show any expression of surprise or praise at this moment, as this would make Garin happy and he would feel uncomfortable.
Of course, Garen didn't need his praise. Those he wanted to defeat were Turalyon, Gavinrad, and even Lothar's son, his own son, Valen.
A surprised expression appeared on Turalyon's face, as if to say "you are so awesome". Gavinrad also gave Garin a thumbs up, while Varen was stunned with his mouth wide open.
Although Stormwind Kingdom has a guardian named Medivh, who is the most powerful wizard among all wizards, Medivh lives in seclusion. There are few wizards in Stormwind City, with only a few royal wizard advisors, which is the same as Stromgarde.
After crossing the Elwyn River, Garin cast a spell to thaw the ice bridge, and a large amount of ice drifted with the waves.
They have entered the territory of Sunshine Forest, which belongs to another map.
Finally, under the leadership of Gavinrad, they arrived near the village of Gran.
Jialin has always been curious about where Gran Village is. Now it seems that it should be in the southeast of Sunshine Forest. To be precise, it is the location of Night Town in later generations.
Garin speculated that it might be the Orc War that destroyed Gran Village, and the Night Town of later generations was rebuilt on the original site of Gran Town.
"Clang clang clang!"
A rapid alarm bell rang out ahead. Garin tightened his grip on the reins and exchanged a glance with Gavinrad, who had been chatting and laughing all the way.
"Enemy attack?"
"Enemy attack!"
"Knights! Follow me and charge!" As soon as Garin pulled the reins, the Arathi Highlands warhorse immediately accelerated and rushed forward. Behind it, Gavinrad followed closely on an Elwynn Forest horse that was a head shorter than it.
From a distance, Garin saw thick smoke floating above the village, which indicated that the enemy had broken through the village militia's defense line and entered the village.
The others also thought of this, and the team accelerated as a whole. It was a pity that there was no acceleration scroll at the moment, otherwise they could have applied a group acceleration.
When they arrived at the entrance of the village, they saw a group of green-skinned humanoid beasts burning, killing and looting. There were some scattered militiamen still resisting, but their defense line had been broken up.
This is the real orc. He is about two meters tall, almost the same height as the humans in Azeroth, but he can only be described as having a broad back and strong arms. His body width is as wide as that of two humans.
His well-developed and strong muscles surpassed those of all bodybuilders. No wonder Gul'dan was discriminated against in his childhood because of his thinness. Being strong is a common phenomenon among the orcs, and those who are not qualified can only do hard labor.
Led by Garin, the knights rushed into the village at high speed. Some orcs who tried to fight were knocked away by Garin and his men in the lead and fell into the ruins of the houses.
What are you thinking? So reckless! Even the strongest infantry can't stop the impact of the heavy cavalry.
Garin took a quick look and found that these orc soldiers entering the village were generally lightly armed, wearing armor on the lower body and only a shoulder armor on the upper body. Their weapons were mostly war hammers and battle axes. The most annoying thing was that they also attacked the unarmed villagers.
A militiaman stood in front of the orc, protecting a villager, and slashed the orc's chest with the one-handed sword in his hand. Even though there was no armor on his chest, there was only a small wound on the orc's chest. Then he hit the militiaman's shield with a sledgehammer and knocked him away.
Seeing the orc soldiers approaching the villagers, the holy light condensed in Garin's hand, and an angry hammer of holy light flew out, hitting the orcs, judging!
There is no such thing as life value in reality. A ninth-level warrior can kill a lower-level warrior instantly by attacking them, which means he is directly attacking their vital points.
Relying on his strong physique, this orc soldier endured the Judgment of Holy Light. He just staggered back a few steps, spitting blood, and still struggled to stand up.
The orcs were much stronger than Garin had expected. They had stronger bodies than humans, physiques more suitable for combat, and thick skin and flesh. It was hard to imagine how the human alliance defeated the orcs.
Gran Village is not big. It only takes two or three minutes to gallop through the village on horseback. Garin observed that the village has three entrances and exits, namely east, north and west, which is very similar to the Three Forks Town in Arathi.
At present, only the east entrance to the village has been lost, and a small group of orcs broke through the defense line and rushed in.
"Gavin, Danas, you take 300 people to the east to block the entrance of the village and stabilize the defense line. I will lead the remaining brothers to clear out the enemies in the village!"
Garin gave orders as usual. Gavinrad brought his own two hundred knights, Garin assigned one hundred of his own knights, and twenty-two paladins followed Danas. The two men followed the orders and left.
As for the away game, the knights of Stormwind did not resist Garin's orders. First, the situation was urgent and Garin's command was correct. Second, Garin had shown his skills when crossing the river before, and his strong strength always makes people admire him.
Seeing them leave, he still had one hundred knights and fifty wizards and priests left. He continued to give orders, "The rest of the people will form teams of three and clean up the orcs that are alone!"
"Turalyon, you and Valen form a team!" He casually assigned a wizard to follow the two of them and provide remote assistance.
Garin rode away alone, the time for hunting had come.
