The Cult of the Damned had already appeared. Rex's expression grew grave, and his wariness of Kel'Thuzad soared. Knowing what the Cult of the Damned was, Rex understood its power better than anyone. In terms of sheer strength, he could crush them as he was now without any trouble. But being weaker than Rex did not make the Cult of the Damned any less of a threat.
The members of the Cult of the Damned were not powerful, but they were far too good at hiding. No one knew which people belonged to the cult.
Rex immediately felt a headache coming on. Enemies lurking in the shadows were the hardest to deal with. Looking at Neptulon the Tidehunter before him, he pondered for a while before asking, "How exactly did the Lord of Darrowshire get mixed up with Kel'Thuzad? Do you know?"
