Originally, Gao He also prepared a lot of words to convince the people who were "forcibly" taken out of the hotel by him. However, when he followed the sound of the building collapse and sensed the extremely huge, evil and chaotic aura, he decided not to waste his time.

No one knew better than Gao He who the aura belonged to, because he never thought that there would be any existence choice at this moment, at this moment, intervened in the next cruel, bloody and extremely fierce battle.

Since there is no other possibility, who will appear in the old city besides the culprit who created the Stantosom massacre with Alsace, in a sense, the culprit who caused the fall of His Highness, the fearful devil Marganis?

While confirming this situation, Gao He's eyes immediately glanced at the people who were somewhat confused in front of him.

"Among you... who knows that in addition to the main entrance, Stantosom's exit to the city?"

Gao He knew that although there is only one main gate for cities of this size, the main purpose is to allow the army and the nobles to rely on and leave, in addition, there will be more side gates that facilitate civilians' entry and exit.

Before this, he had seen such a side door in Crusader Square, but at this moment, the other side of Crusader Square was probably occupied by countless carriages and horses transporting food, and they could not escape smoothly. As for the main door... If Gao He did not plan to be at odds with His Royal Highness the Prince now, choosing that road would undoubtedly be a joke.

Not beyond Gao He's expectations, almost as Gao He asked questions, Griffin Storman, who seemed rough but actually meticulous, had given the accurate answer.

"Near Stantam Cathedral, there is a side door for worshipers to enter and exit the old town civilians, but it only leads to the remote suburbs..."

"It's there, Griffin, and... Joseph, you two, next we will take everyone to the door of Stantolme Cathedral, waiting for my news."

Although Gao He's decisive order was filled with mist among the few people, for some reason, in the end, both Griffin and Joseph obediently accepted his order.

Before Joseph picked up Parmilla and was about to leave, he called Gao He, who was about to set out towards the old city.

"Sir, although it's a bit abrupt... have we ever met before?"

“…”

Gao He looked at Joseph's face in surprise, then hesitated for a moment and shook his head gently.

"No, I think this is probably the first time we met."

If we calculate from time perspective... this statement is not wrong.

After all, when he met Joseph "the next time he met him, he had died and fell into the Scourge. Of course, for Gao He and Joseph "now", that should be in the next decade or so.

"So……"

Joseph had a bright look and looked at Gao He's face carefully. At this moment, although he was a little younger than the "hero garrison captain" who led the crowd to fight against the undead natural disaster army in the next ten years, he had already demonstrated the caution and decisiveness that an excellent warrior should have during this period of time.

"Although I don't know what happened... I can trust you, right, sir?"

"Yes, at least today, you have to believe me."

Gao He answered firmly, then gently touched the round little Pamira's head that was just curiously looking in his arms. After waved to her, he quickly turned around and ran towards the old city.

“It’s really strange…”

At some point, Griffin Storman scratched the back of his head carelessly and came to Joseph's side.

"Who is that commander...? Why do I always feel...it seems to have seen him somewhere?"

"have no idea……"

Joseph shook his head gently, but when he turned around, he had obviously made a decision.

"But... I chose to believe him, what about you?"

"Well...this is hard to say..."

After hesitating for a while, Griffin looked at the old city that had been in a dead silence since the beginning, and finally made the right choice.

"... Of course, as a soldier of the Union, I cannot disobey the command of the commander."

"That's it...and that commander is still holding our handle..."

The infantryman Maxwell just muttered such words in a low voice, but Griffin slapped hard on the armor on the back, making a sound from the boss.

"Stop talking nonsense, I think we should go to the door of Stantolme Cathedral as soon as possible - and in addition, I suddenly want to be a marshal."

"Wait...wait! That's my ambition!"

"There is not only one marshal in the alliance... OK OK, man, I don't want to be a marshal. To be honest, I just think that if I become a high-ranking official, I will become as majestic as the inexplicable commander just now."

Speaking of this, Griffin Storman looked up and looked at Joseph Redpass who was leading his family in front of him.

"I hope one day I can get strong enough to protect myself and my family..."

Gao He didn't know that because of him, the future leader of the People's Army in Fog Rain Plain, who is still a big soldier, has set a lofty ideal for himself at this time-

"Of course, there are those... people who need my protection."

"You! Have you met with Changming and the others?"

On the way to the old city, Gao He urgently contacted the team members.

Miss Long has not heard from him yet, and I don’t know where she has gone. Although it seems that the lady’s health is still full in the team interface, but Gao and the few calls on the team channel cannot reach her position.

Obviously, the eldest lady had either left the scope of communications of the team or ran to another time plane different from the team - this was not impossible in the space-time crack. However, if it happened now, Gao He had little confidence in the dangers he might face in the next place.

Fortunately, there was good news from You, which made Gao He feel a little relieved.

"It has been met, and Her Majesty the Queen is here."

Fortunately, neither the famous senior sister You nor the Xixi Queen who worried Gao He the most was wrong. Since that is the case, just wait until the fearful devil Marganis launches a large-scale operation...

"Her Majesty the Queen refuses to leave."

You's next line of text made Gao He's heart that had finally been happy suddenly sink.

"Why?"

He almost subconsciously asked - but immediately, he realized that Her Majesty the Queen might not care about their inquiries at all.

However, unexpectedly, after a moment of pause, You actually conveyed the answer.

『She said, she was waiting for someone.』

Waiting for someone?

By the past ten years ago...who are you waiting for?

Although he wanted to curse himself, after all, it was Her Majesty the Queen who took the initiative now, not Gao He, so Gao He could only quickly pass through the dark and deep streets of the old city after confirming the location of a few people, towards the deepest part of this poor city, and the poorest and dilapidated center.

Before he knew it, a black mist began to float around Gaohe's body. At the same time, Gaohe also noticed that there was a negative magic effect called "Drowsy" on his status bar.

"This is the spell of Marganis... is it going to start to act? Since that's the case... Prince Arthas's army is probably going to enter the city..."

In that history, Marganis, who first came to the old city, used a large-scale spell, which caused the entire city of Stantam to fall asleep. Then, these sleeping people were killed by natural disasters without any sense of consciousness and resurrected as walking dead souls.

The overture of the Stantosom massacre is played by the "dark sky" that covers Stantosom's sky that makes the sinful massacre silently in the dark. From this moment on, until today more than ten years later, this deadly city never ushered in the morning of the next morning.

“Buzz…”

Before he fell into a deep sleep, Gaohe used the cleaning technique as soon as possible to purify the evil and chaotic aura that was trying to wrap around him. Youhe Changming also didn't need to worry. As the undead clan, they didn't need to sleep, so this dark sky would not affect them at all.

Looking up at the sky, the black mist was like a huge curtain, covering the two moons and endless stars in the sky of the Azeroth continent. Soon, the entire city would be completely trapped in darkness.

Gao He had no time to worry about the people who had separated from him and fled to Stantam Cathedral - in this case, all he could do was to meet with his teammates as soon as possible, and then find a way to avoid this "confrontation" between Prince Alsace and the Demon King of Fear.

In the deepest part of the old town, there is also an abandoned square - it was originally the original town hall of Stantam, but now after the expansion of Stantam, the town hall has been abandoned. Now, the people occupying it and this square are a large number of... homeless civilians.

After passing through a long-destroying fountain, Gao He had seen three teammates who were carefully hidden from the side of the gate leading to the abandoned square.

"What's going on? Where is Queen Xi? Where is Queen Xi?"

Gao He quickly came to the three girls, but found that none of the three girls paid attention to him and all looked at the square within the gate.

"Um?"

While Gao He was confused, he also followed him to look inside.

It would be fine if I didn't look at it, but when I saw it... Gao He almost didn't scare his heart out of his mouth!

Because... he saw that Her Majesty, wearing a white dress, was standing in front of a collapsed house, crying silently, while trying to remove the rubble with both hands, trying to dig something out from underneath.

But... just after the girl's petite body, although she was in boundless darkness, she looked particularly eye-catching because of the bright yellow armor and patterns. It was the enemy Gao He who was unwilling to face and wanted to avoid...

Fear Demon King, Marganis!

(P.S: If the abalone is remembered correctly, in the WAR3 campaign, the Stantosom massacre took place at night, but... in WOW's Cave of Time: Old Stantosom, the sun is bright outside the city, and it is only covered by the dark sky in the city... Well, there is also a jet lag in the Cave of Light at that time...)

(P.S2: The part of Kaven has been sorted out a little, because the official history has been changed in part of the plot. In order to avoid conflicts in the future, we must continue to sort out this part... A typical trick myself into cheating myself! I will probably be able to overcome this hurdle tomorrow!)...
