The black clouds sway the city, and the sea breeze whistles.

In the eyes of experienced sailors and fishermen, this seems to reveal that a storm is coming...

The thick dark clouds in the sky are shaking in pieces, covering the bright moonlight.

The depths of the dust swamp are pitch black, like a ghost.

Under the dark night, the violent sea breeze blows ruthlessly, causing the mottled tree shadows in the swamp to sway and sway constantly, and look like ghosts from afar, particularly incredible.

The lightning lights that flash from time to time in the clouds bring one of the few lights to the dim and dark clouds that are unable to see their fingers. But on the other hand, against the flashing lights of light, the dark and gloomy swamp is more like a prehistoric beast that chooses people to eat, which makes most people feel a sense of depression and indescribable tremor in their hearts.

...

A neat footsteps sounded on the stone road not far outside the City of Theramo, adding a touch of vitality to the deep and dark land. A Theramo patrol team, who was neatly dressed and had no fatigue on their faces, advanced quickly on the road and headed straight for the deep and dark swamp depths.

The naval fleet that set out to fight against the Orc City had set sail two days ago, and rushed straight to the unknown land marked Durothal on the map. According to the collected information, it was the area where the orcs were located in Kalimdor's base camp.

During this attack, the Admiral not only took away all the warships and personnel from the Kurtiras Navy Fleet, but also drew a large number of troops from the garrison of Theramo Castle as reinforcements. Except for the two established corps and troops of the Seventh Corps and Gilnis Brigade, they are still stationed on Theramo Island, this emerging harbor city can no longer find any decent armed forces.

It can be said that the Ramore is at the moment when defense is most empty.

In addition, the external environment and background of re-war with orcs and even tribes...

Regardless of the final outcome, who knows whether the admiral's unremitting military action will cause revenge from those tribal races and send troops to take advantage of the situation to attack the empty defense Theramore?

Don't forget that those tough and wild, daunting taurens have already set up their troops in Theramore at the entrance of the swamp, and the army is gathering in high gear...

This is the naked deterrence!

In this case, the defenders of Theramore, who were short of troops, wished that everyone could learn the clone technique and monitor the entire swamp, for fear of any clues, so that the tribe could take action calmly, and the new home they built brick by brick and tile brought indelible losses!

Therefore, even in such bad weather, the left-behind garrisons still dare not slacken. The patrol teams and various sentinels' alert tasks are even heavier than usual.

Just like the patrol team just now, after returning to Theramo Island for less than a day of rest, they were once again sent out by superior officers to strengthen their security forces. Therefore, they had to drag their tired bodies to continue walking through the marshlands with bad environments...

Even the most likely result is that they will only spend a lot of energy and go out for a while, and get nothing.

...

"It's gone far. Safe!"

As the figures of the tired patrolmen gradually drifted away and finally disappeared into the dark dark night, a cold and capable low report sounded in the area where the guards had just passed.

The next second, several tall, short, fat, thin figures with different shapes emerged from the mud on both sides of the stone road.

A violent lightning flashed across the sky, and the rumbling sound of thunder resounded through his ears. With the light of the lightning, these mysterious people covered with mud finally showed their faces and races...

Orcs, trolls, pandas and taurens... It is Lao Tang, Lexas and his party who are performing a secret infiltrating mission!

"Okay, not far ahead is Theramore! From here, let's act separately!"

Holding a "small" two-handed sword that was obviously inconsistent with the body shape, Old Tang, who had his sharpness, looked around several faces around him and said in a deep voice.

Old Tang and his group of seven trekked in the dust swamp for two days and three nights, and now they finally arrived at their destination. This is a blessing for a group of people who are either heroic masters or the Taurus clan who are good at trekking. Otherwise, if it were a large army, it would be difficult to reach the end even if the time was doubled.

"According to the situation observed by the Lexus Warhawks, the large forces of the Kul Tiras Navy have set off from the sea. Theramore's defense is much empty than before. This is good news for us!"

Six "delicious wind snakes" were taken out from their pockets and handed them to the panda wine fairy and violent cow beside them. Old Tang looked around and said to himself: "But you still need to be careful. The more this happens, the more cautious the guys on the other side are, and the patrol may be more strict!"

"Okay, brothers, let's get started!"

Seeing everyone nodding, he said that Lao Tang didn't say much anymore and directly issued an order to start the action:

"We are searching for targets openly, and you are waiting for opportunities to rescue you!"

“Everything goes according to plan!”

"Remember, if something happens... I would rather fail the mission than give priority to self-protection!"

"Don't worry, Goode, I will take good care of them!" Lexar nodded to Old Tang with a serious face, and at the same time gave a message: "You... must be careful not to show your flaws!"

"Don't worry, I said I'm actually an actor!" Old Tang smiled heartily and teased himself, trying to dilute the slightly tense atmosphere in the team. Then he said with a solemn expression and blessing: "Once a successful success, may Mother Earth protect us!"

After saying that, the power of the fraud bead had been activated and transformed himself into a black-haired, black-eyed young human paladin. Everyone nodded carefully to each other. The beast king Rexsa had already led the paralyzed man, Xiao Zhengtai, and Luo Khan, three team members, to crawl into the swamp again and began to sneak in...

"Lexus!"

Old Tang abruptly called out that the Beast King, whose body was slowly fading, gradually blending with the surrounding environment, pointed to the eagle that was constantly hovering under the thunder clouds in the sky. Before the other party completely disappeared from sight, he reminded loudly: "Keep in touch!"

When the figure of the sneaking team could no longer be found in sight, Lao Tang, who was already a human paladin, turned his head and laughed at the human naval soldier who was "played" by the Panda Wine Fairy and the Violent Bull beside him, and then his expression changed into an arrogant and arrogant look. He said in an impatient tone:

"Why are you still standing there? Go back to the camp quickly! Do you still want to stand here and get wet in the rain?"

Another lightning flashed through the air, and the roaring thunder seemed to indicate the arrival of a heavy rain. Old Tang's face appeared boredom and impatience. He walked quickly towards the brightly lit fortress city in the distance, muttering irritably:

"I've had enough of this terrible swamp! Oh, the Holy Light is on, and this damn weather!"

Amid the muffled thunder of "rumbling"... the secret infiltration plan officially begins!

And a certain "actor" has become a part of the show!

———————————————

"Oh, damn it! Why did it rain again when we caught up with the night? Has the Holy Light abandoned us?"

In front of the gate of Theramore, a young soldier wrapped in silver plate armor, complained endlessly to the veteran beside him with a depressed face.

It was already hard to bear to wear a cold and heavy metal armor in winter, and the damp and cold wind that kept pouring into the neck from the gaps in the armor was even more unbearable. Several times on duty caught up with such a bad weather, it was no wonder that the young soldier was quite dissatisfied with his unlucky luck and spoke out.

"Okay, be content! Just take a breath of wind and rain. Our luck is good enough!"

The lazy veteran leaning against the city wall, glanced at his partner and retorted unhappily: "If the Holy Light really abandons us, then we will not stand here on duty now, but will follow the fleet to march north!"

After saying that, the veteran looked around carefully and secretly took out a wine pot and sipped with a sip of strong wine. The wine passed through the intestines, bringing a warm feeling all over his body, which made the veteran exclaim satisfied.

"Why do you say that, Sgt.?" The young soldier was deeply surprised by the veteran's answer. He asked in confusion.

However, he turned a blind eye to his partner's violation of military discipline and regulations.

It seems that the young soldier is no longer surprised by his veteran partner's behavior of drinking on duty in violation of military discipline, and is used to it, and even a little envious of...

After all, it is a pleasant and comfortable thing to be able to drink a sip of strong wine to warm your body on such a cold night. If it weren't for the military rules and regulations that bound him, he would have wanted to ask for a sip of wine. But compared to the experienced sergeant beside him, he, a recruit, really has no confidence to violate the discipline...

Seeing the new recruit eggs staring at his wine pot, Adam's apple looked greedy. The old sergeant laughed and scolded with anger: "If you want to drink, just say it, I have observed that there are no outsiders! Drink it. As long as you don't have any luck, encounter the grandsons and generals of the inspection team patrolling, no one will teach you a lesson!"

After saying that, the sergeant had thrown a wine pot to the recruits beside him, and continued to "tempt" carelessly:

"Besides, in such unlucky weather, besides the dedicated Marshal Leoerick can share the joys and sorrows with us, which officer is not lazy and staying in the room? Who would come here to care about the life and death of our ordinary sergeants?"

In addition to the respectful tone and respectful face when mentioning the old marshal, the veteran's words were full of dissatisfaction and sarcasm towards the superior officers. It can be seen that the old sergeant is a veteran who is experienced in the army!

"But...but today, Lieutenant Obero is on duty...he..."

"I'm so silly like a woman! I'll drink it if you want you to drink, I'm afraid he's a bird!" The new recruit with a fierce look, and the old sergeant mocked in disdain: "Lieutenant Obero? Tell, what kind of dish is he? A young man who has never seen blood before, would he be a military officer?"

"Don't worry, if that little bastard dares to cause trouble for you, our veterans will help you stand up! Hey, some people will deal with such guys who bully the weak and fear the strong!"

Holding the wine pot in his hand and listening to the old sergeant's ruffian's words, the young soldier hesitated for a moment and could not resist the temptation of the wine. He gulped two mouthfuls in a row and let out a comfortable and satisfying moan.

Throwing the wine pot back to the sergeant, the young soldier suddenly heard the previous question and asked carefully again:

"By the way, Sergeant! Why did you say that we were not involved in the war against the orcs, which made us lucky? Are you not optimistic about the outcome of this war?"

After glanced at the confused partner, the sergeant sighed and slowly asked a seemingly irrelevant question:

"If I remember correctly, you just joined the army before we crossed the sea, right?"

The young soldier nodded in confusion, not knowing why the old sergeant asked this question. However, the veteran did not explain but still asked himself:

"You have also participated in the Battle of Mount Haigal. You have also fought against the demons of the Burning Legion. How do you think the fighting power of those demons?"

"Very strong! Not to mention those hellfires... they are just ordinary high-level demons... we have to sacrifice at least three brothers to fight to death." After hesitating for a while, the "new recruit" still gave his own answer cautiously!

"Haha, the demons' fighting power is cruel, and those green skins are not much worse! You have never participated in World War I and World War II, so you have never fought with them... But I have participated!"

A trace of bitterness appeared on the veteran's face, as if he was recalling something. He said in a lonely tone:

"When I followed the old marshal and Sir Lothar, I fought with them at Lordaeron. One of our squadron brothers encountered a team of more than fifty orcs... After a bloody battle, all orcs were destroyed. In the end, more than one hundred brothers, together with me, only seven survived!"

"It's just the seven of us... it's because we are the youngest. Those big brothers tried their best to save each other, and even sacrificed their lives to die with Green Skin to survive..."

At this moment, the sergeant's tone was indescribable and sad, and there was indescribable sadness all over his body. Seeing his young partner with a look of surprise and confusion, the sergeant continued in a deep tone:

"You know the old Hami of the Third Squadron, do you know? His fingers were gone in that battle... Haven't you been curious about how the scar on my chest came about? It was also left behind when the battle was dying by a crazy green skin... Haha, it was so lucky at the beginning... I was almost split in half..."

The heavy weight in the sergeant's story made the young soldiers at a loss and felt awe-inspiring in the next second. He finally understood why these veterans were so calm and brave... and also knew why these veterans were disdainful to the newly promoted young officers...

Compared with these heroes, those bastards who usually rely on their military ranks are nothing!

"I can understand General Dailin's hatred for those green skins! I also admire General Dailin, a leader who can be brave and dare to act... If I have the chance, I will also fight those green skins to the end, and even die together!"

The sergeant's eyes suddenly burst out with indescribable firmness and courage, and the new recruits did not doubt the authenticity of the sergeant's words. Because, this kind of gaze was only seen by the young soldier who always looked lazy and slick in his usual manner!

On Mount Hygar, facing the rushing army of demons!

"But the Admiral is old... When people are old, they always become particularly stubborn!" The veteran who was trapped in his thoughts said on his own without notice of the respectful gaze in his young partner's eyes.

"I know. You young men have not sent troops this time because our Seventh Army did not send troops. They have many complained about Marshal Leorick behind their backs... But do you know why all the veterans did not oppose the Marshal's decision? Even if the hatred between us veterans and orcs is much stronger than you, it is also much more unforgettable!"

"Why?" The young soldier couldn't help but worry about admitting that he had been secretly dissatisfied with the Marshal's decision, and blurted out the doubts in his heart.

"Because the marshal is right!" He glanced at the anxious young man beside him, and replied in a solemn and solemn tone: "There must be a battle between us and those orcs! But... it shouldn't be now! And it shouldn't be the war with the orcs just by relying on the power of Theramore and the Kurtiras navy!"

"We who have fought with them in blood know much better than you how terrifying the strength of the orcs are! In comparison, our strength is still too weak now!"
