The Fel Orcs city of Zeth'Gor, as far as the eye can see, consists only of dilapidated walls and rows of simple Orcs buildings.

Due to a lack of supplies and water, the Bleeding Hollow Clan Fel Orcs living here are generally emaciated and weak in combat.

Zeth'Gor was able to survive because the Bleeding Hollow Orcs and the Hellfire Citadel's Fel Orcs were locked in fierce infighting.

As the saying goes, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. Whenever Zeth'Gor is attacked by Hellfire Citadel, the Alliance will inevitably try to sabotage it.

Zeth'Gor has become a major worry for Kargath.

Robbie secretly calculated the time and nodded to General Trollbane:

"We can begin."

The thunderous sound of war drums rang out, and the Alliance army launched its attack.

First, the Dwarf Gryphon Riders gained air superiority and hurled torches and other incendiary objects at Zeth'Gor.

Zeth'Gor's simple wooden buildings immediately caught fire, the fire spread rapidly, and the camp was thrown into chaos.

The Bleeding Hollow Orcs rushed out of their tents in a panic, but couldn't find their commander. Chaos ensued, with cries and screams echoing everywhere.

The Catapults smashed through the makeshift walls, and the Alliance seized the opportunity to launch an attack.

Robbie and Krasus led an elite force to a cave near Zeth'Gor.

As the saying goes, where there are Orcs, there is bound to be infighting.

The two leaders of Zeth'Gor, "Darkeye" Grillok and Bleeding Hollow Clan Overseer Mor'ken, were locked in a fierce battle. In the end, Overseer Mor'ken emerged victorious, and Grillok was sidelined.

Grillok gave up and went into seclusion in a cave near Zeth'Gor to study Void magic. He sacrificed a part of his body to the forces of darkness, thus gaining the ability to Voidwalk.

Akama took a liking to this ability, and the two made a pact that Akama would locate the Fountain of Living Water, while Grillok would use Voidwalk to steal it.

The two were lucky; they successfully stole the Fountain of Living Water and framed Jaina and the fake Illidari Council.

Grillok, carrying the Fountain of Living Water, returned to the cave with great interest.

Without such a treasure, Hellfire Citadel will inevitably fall into internal strife, and Akama and Grillok, working together from the inside and outside, could seize the opportunity to replace Kargath.

Grillok was humming an ancient Orcs song when he suddenly heard the thunderous sound of war drums.

Having used the Eye of the Void to discover that the attackers were from the Alliance, Grillok was not worried.

The Alliance's target should be Warlord Mor'ken, since he's a thorn in their side and they'd be happy to see the Alliance eliminate him.

Suddenly, a series of hurried footsteps approached. Grillok was startled and quickly grabbed the Fountain of Living Water, preparing to use Voidwalk to escape.

However, he crashed headfirst into the cave wall, and someone sealed off the surrounding Void, leaving him nowhere to escape.

There is Secret Passage inside the cave leading to Seth Grylls, whose safety can be guaranteed by Grillok's confidants.

But with Seth was under attack from the Alliance, going back would be like walking into a trap.

Robbie and Krasus walked in from the cave entrance. Grillok, filled with apprehension, obediently knelt on the ground and offered up the Fountain of Living Water.

After seizing the Fountain of Living Water, the Alliance army withdrew like a tide, leaving only the burning Zeth'Gor.

Kargath was extremely excited that 35,000 adventurers had been slaughtered.

In the past, creating Fel Orcs only allowed the slaughter of Mag'har Orcs.

Since the Mag'har Orcs fled to the deep mountains and established Mag'har Post, harvesting Mag'har Orcs souls has become increasingly difficult.

Now, having suddenly obtained 35,000 souls, the souls of Azeroth adventurers are far superior to those of the barbaric and backward Mag'har Orcs, and can be used to create stronger Fel Orcs.

Nazgrel, the leader of Thrallmar, laughed heartily, "Chieftain Kargath, it's a pleasure to cooperate. I have a feeling this is just the beginning."

Kargath put away the Soul Orb atop the Altar, watching as Nazgrel's people Tough Jerky.

"This is a great achievement; Lord Illidan will be very pleased when he finds out." Kargath was only thinking about how to claim credit.

Nazgrel said with beaming eyes, "That's right, it's a win-win situation. We captured three outposts and gained a large amount of military supplies. Savior Thrall will surely reward me."

Kargath stroked his chin, finding the collaboration quite pleasant, and went along with it, saying:

"The Alliance of Honor Hold has always been a thorn in my side, especially the Dwarf Gryphon Riders, who have caused me considerable trouble."

Nazgrel smiled faintly, "The destruction of Honor Hold is inevitable, but the time is not yet ripe. With Honor Hold existing, we can achieve even more merits."

Kargath and Kargath exchanged a knowing smile, and the two burst into laughter simultaneously.

The cunning of Orcs is well aware of the principle that raising an enemy is a recipe for disaster!

Kargath led his Hellfire Citadel army in retreat, but halfway there, a scout reported that the Fountain of Living Water had been stolen.

"What did you say?"

Upon hearing this, Kargath felt dizzy and his vision went black; he nearly fainted.

"With Pit Lord Magtheridon protecting it, how could the Fountain of Living Water possibly be lost?"

Kargath rushed back to Hellfire Citadel and met with the Pit Lord Magtheridon.

In Magtheridon's lair, Magtheridon ceased his deep sleep, his large, bell-like eyes widening in surprise.

A series of sturdy Chains of Order firmly bound Magtheridon; this was a seal personally erected by Illidan.

Akama stood guard cautiously to the side, while Kargath was furious, his eyes bloodshot, almost ready to kill.

However, given the circumstances, Kargath could only rely on Magtheridon.

"Lord Magtheridon, who stole the Fountain of Living Water?" Kargath asked earnestly.

Magtheridon glared at Akama with displeasure, Kargath waved his hand, and Akama wisely left.

"I can sense the location of the Fountain of Living Water; it's in Zeth'Gor."

"Zeth'Gor?" Kargath was startled, pondering for a long time. "I heard that Darkeye Grillok sacrificed a part of his body to the Void, could it be him?"

Magtheridon scoffed, "Most of my power is sealed, preventing me from sealing off the Void; otherwise, the Fountain of Living Water wouldn't have been lost."

Kargath gritted his teeth, his jaws clenching. "I'll send troops to Zeth'Gor right now and reclaim the Fountain of Living Water at all costs!"

Magtheridon shook his enormous head and said regretfully:

"It's too late. Someone has removed the trace I left at the Fountain of Living Water; its location can no longer be sensed."

Kargath, completely disoriented, knelt on the ground. "Lord Magtheridon, please help me think of a way."

Although Illidan sealed Magtheridon, Kargath always respected the Pit Lord, and the two got along fairly well.

Magtheridon smiled faintly and said, "What's there to be afraid of? Lord Archimonde perished at Mount Hyjal, Pit Lord clan were ostracized by Lord Kil'jaeden, allowing Illidan to seize Outland. Times have changed. Our Pit Lord clan, Mannoroth, has gained Lord Kil'jaeden's trust, and Outland will ultimately belong to me."

Kargath's hope rekindled. "My lord, what do you mean?"

Magtheridon countered, "How is your cooperation with the Horde?"

Kargath replied, "Everyone got what they needed; it was a fairly harmonious situation."

"Then let's continue our cooperation." Magtheridon grinned Evil. "With the help of adventurers, I will gain my freedom and reclaim the Black Temple."
