"You said Quilboar is going to launch an attack on Ashenvale?" Shandris raised an eyebrow and looked at Aaron: "You two are not here to joke with me, are you?"

Although Night Elf and Night Elf all stay in Ashenvale and Mount Hyjal, they don't know anything about the outside world. At least Shandris still knows about Quilboar's situation.

This matter is related to the custom of Quilboar. The thorn vines they like to plant near their settlements are considered by Druid to be damaging to nature, so from time to time some Druid will go to the Barrens to make Quilboar give up this custom.

Although Druid's actions have never been successful, due to their failure, Night Elf has a deep enough understanding of Quilboar.

In Shandris's opinion, although Quilboar is better off than other descendants of Wild God, after all, it is only that small population, which is far behind Night Elf.

Under normal circumstances, the number of soldiers Quilboar could mobilize would never be that large, and it would be impossible to pose any threat to Ashenvale. However, the current situation is abnormal.

"What if Xavius used Nightmare to control Quilboar, and then asked Naga to help?" Aaron told Shandris what they had seen, heard and speculated, In order to prevent the other party from not paying attention to it, Aaron also emphatically described Ratchet's miserable situation. Although it was related to Gazlowe evacuating his men in advance, Shandris didn't know. It would be great if she could pay attention to it.

"In this case, the situation is indeed a bit serious." Shandris's eyebrows were almost knitted together. If 20,000 to 30,000 enemies were to attack Ashenvale, then her sentries would really not be enough.

"Go and notify the King of the Forest." Shandris called the sentry at the door and asked him to notify Cenarius. After thinking about it, Shandris asked another sentry to ride on Hippogryph and go directly to Mount Hyjal. She might not be able to hold on, so it would be safer to call for support as soon as possible.

"Where do you think Xavius's target will be?" After Shandris handed over the messenger, he continued to discuss this battle with Aaron and the others, "Isn't that guy coming to take revenge on me and Stormrage Archdruid?"

The last time Xavius died, he was killed by Shandris and Malfurion. No wonder Shandris's first reaction was that Xavius planned to come to her for revenge.

However, Shandris himself overturned this guess. "Impossible, Stormrage Archdruid, not to mention, if you want to deal with me, you won't need such a large formation at all."

"I think Xavius's target... may be there." Aaron pointed to the northeast. Even though he was in the house, he could still see part of the tree crown of World Tree Nordrassil.

"Nordrassil? Impossible." Shandris still couldn't believe it, "World Tree was blessed by the three dragon kings. Even if Xavius has become much stronger now, he can't pose a threat to World Tree, right?"

"The main power of Xavius is still among Emerald Dream. His main purpose must be to spread Nightmare. Is there a more suitable target than Nordrassil?"

Aaron once tried to enter Emerald Dream in Azshara. Although he entered the dreamland smoothly, he felt a little hindered during the process. It was completely different from the smooth feeling when he was in Druid's den before.

The reason for this difference is that the distance from Nordrassil is different. With the blessing of Ysera, this tree is equivalent to an antenna that assists in connecting reality with Emerald Dream. There is such a tree Now, Druid can easily enter Emerald Dream. If this tree is destroyed, even Archdruid like Malfurion will have to spend a lot more effort to enter it.

Speaking of which, Nordrassil and Yogg-Saron can transfer their power into Emerald Dream through Andrassil. If Xavius can corrupt Nordrassil, then the entire Emerald Dream will be very dangerous.

"This possibility cannot be ignored." Shandris listened to Aaron, although he still felt that it was impossible for Xavius to fight against the dragon on World Tree Wang Blessing, but this kind of danger also needs to be watched, but the most important thing right now is to guard Ashenvale, especially Astranaar, which is also the responsibility of Shandris.

Soon, the sentry who went to notify Cenarius returned, followed by the king of the forest.

It seems that Cenarius is also very concerned about this matter. As soon as he came over, he hurriedly asked, "Xavius is going to attack Ashenvale. Is this news confirmed?"

Aaron was just about to say what he said again when he heard an eagle cry from the air. He looked up and saw a Hippogryph. Hippogryph was also carrying a panic-looking Night Elf.

The Night Elf noticed the people on the ground and hurriedly let Hippogryph down, shouting, "General Feathermoon, a group of Quilboar and Naga have landed from the Southfury River and are coming this way."

"It turns out that these guys came from the Southfury River. No wonder I didn't see them along the way." Aaron listened to Vereesa translate the meaning of Night Elf, and thought to himself, "I said it is impossible for those Naga to run here along the Barrens."

Not to mention the Barrens's bad terrain, Naga's belly would be worn out just by climbing all the way, not to mention the Barrens's bad climate itself is very detrimental to Naga.

It is convenient for Naga people to follow Southfury River. After landing from the Southfury River, there are many waters in Ashenvale that are also convenient. Naga's actions, and at this distance, it will be much more convenient for Naga ers whether they want to impact Astranaar or divert into Mount Hyjal.

"How long will it take for them to arrive here?" Shandris motioned to Night Elf not to be anxious and speak slowly.

"When I came, they hadn't all logged in yet."

"If we follow the normal marching speed, then we may still have two or three days." Shandris made a simple calculation, and she had a rough estimate of Quilboar's marching speed. This time would be enough to prepare.

After discussing with the King of the Forest, Shandris decided to place the defense line at the three-way intersection connecting Astranaar, Azshara and Mount Hyjal. Setting up defenses at that place can be said to be the best of both worlds. It can not only prevent the enemy from attacking Astranaar, but also facilitate the support from Hyjal.

After Shandris and Cenarius arranged the defense line, the coalition forces of Quilboar and Naga also arrived belatedly. Many raptors controlled by Nightmare could be seen in the sky. It seemed that there were many beasts that harmed them along the way.

"These guys actually dare to desecrate nature like this!" Cenarius showed great anger and wanted to rush out to punish those people immediately.

"King of the forest, please be patient!" Shandris persuaded Cenarius, and then ordered, "Sentinels, shoot!"
