Seeing Aaron nodding in agreement, the dwarf shamans also started to get busy. If it is a small-scale communication with the earth, it is still a basic skill for them, but obviously the Undeads did not appear near Wildhammer Keep. If they want to Big Van to explore the situation of the earth, they need to perform some rituals.
Aaron, who was standing aside, didn't know much about Shaman's ceremony, and couldn't understand it. Fortunately, he chatted with Falstad. When he was at Stormwind City, Aaron had the experience of fighting side by side with Falstad and his subordinates Gryphon Rider.
However, when Aaron went to Stormwind City this year, he learned that because Stormwind City had successfully formed his own Proto-Dragon cavalry unit, Falstad except Blasted Lands, who arranged for some people to continue to the south, kept an eye on Dark Portal's movements, and took most of the clan members back to Aerie Peak, enjoying the rare peace since Orcs's invasion.
"But good times are always short-lived." After talking about his current situation, Falstad was silent for a while, glanced at the west, and said to Aaron, "The short-term peace has passed, and it will be difficult to have a stable life in the future."
Falstad may not know that he has inadvertently predicted the future of Azeroth, but Aaron knows very well that the appearance of Cult of the Damned means the complete end of Azeroth's short-term peace. What awaits the planet next is one wave of disasters and turmoil.
But what's strange in Aaron's heart is that as far as the current situation is concerned, Dragonmaw Orcs has lost all Red Dragonflight and has also suffered angry revenge from Red Dragon Queen. Is there anything else in the sky of Eastern Kingdoms that can pose a threat to Wildhammer Dwarves?
However, before Aaron could ask what was going on, the Shamans who were holding a ceremony over there started shouting excitedly, and some impatient dwarves even took out wine bottles from nowhere and started drinking.
After being interrupted like this, Aaron and Falstad did not continue chatting. They walked to Vereesa who had been following the ceremony curiously from just now - Vereesa is full of curiosity about all new things. Although he has seen Shaman in Kalimdor, he has never seen the scene where Shaman jointly cast spells. Of course, take a closer look.
"Falstad, I heard it, I heard the cry of the earth." The expression of the white-bearded Shaman just now seemed a little gloomy. After all, he is the descendant of Earthen, and Earth Elemental's poor relationship did not affect his closeness to the earth, and his mood would not be much better when he felt the pain suffered by the earth. Most of the dwarves who were still in the mood to drink were still apprentices. They could only play a supporting role in this ceremony, and naturally they could not hear the pain of the earth.
"What? Is the situation serious?" Aaron looked at the sad expression of the old dwarf and felt nervous, wondering if the Undeads had spread and Dead Scar suddenly appeared in Eastern Kingdoms?
Old Shaman shook his head, saying that the situation was not very serious, but that as a Shaman, he failed to notice the changes in the earth in advance, which made him a little depressed.
"I must personally smash all those guys who dare to harm the earth!" The old dwarf said angrily, waving the war hammer in his hand. Aaron believes that if there is a Undead standing here, it will definitely be smashed, provided that Undead is not an incorporeal existence like a ghost.
"Can you sense what's wrong?"
"Right over there, boys, follow me and kill all the guys who dare to destroy the earth!" After the old dwarf answered Aaron's question, he rushed out with one swing of his warhammer. He followed the same example when he took down Shaman, and left with the murderous spirit of old Shaman.
"Just left like that?" Aaron stared at this scene in shock. Falstad laughed and led Aaron and the two of them to chase after him.
Under the leadership of old Shaman, a group of people entered the mountain forest to the west of Wildhammer Keep, and finally stopped in a clearing in the forest.
However, at this moment, Aaron heard a loud cry from above his head. He looked up and saw a gryphon carrying a dwarf rider landing. The rider looked slightly panicked, but after seeing Falstad, he was a little confused and shouted loudly, "Your Majesty the King, do you already know?"
"What do I know?" Falstad was naturally filled with confusion after hearing such a meaningless sentence and asked hurriedly.
"That's right, that's right..." Gryphon Rider stammered about what to say. In the end, he probably realized that it was more convincing to let Falstad see it with his own eyes, so he dragged Falstad onto his griffon and flew into the air.
When Aaron saw this, he also called out the gryphon, and flew into the air with Vereesa. At this time, Gryphon Rider was pointing at the mountain forest below and gesturing at Falstad. Falstad still couldn't understand what this person meant for a while.
Vereesa discovered something, pulled Aaron's clothes, and motioned Aaron to look down.
Aaron looked down and found nothing at first glance, but soon the ability to perceive life from Emerald Dream made Aaron discover something was wrong. It was already winter, and the trees near Aerie Peak The leaves have all fallen, so Aaron can see the ground through the branches in the air. When he was on the ground, he didn't feel anything before, but looking down from the air made Aaron notice the existence of a road in the forest whose color is slightly different from the surrounding land.
The location that Shamans found just now is the darkest location on this Road of Death, and it is also the area where the earth has been severely damaged. However, this area still extends to the west and north respectively. The north one should be the way that Undeads came from, and the west one is where they are going.
"This is Dead Scar." Aaron sighed. Even if he found traces of Undead, he couldn't be happy in his heart.
Although the Road of Death in front of me is very different from the Dead Scar that runs through the entire Quel'Thalas in the game, and it does not seem to have caused irreversible damage to the earth, it should be slowly repaired as time goes by. However, this trace is enough to announce the arrival of Scourge to the entire Azeroth.
"But what's going on in this direction?" Vereesa, who was sitting behind Aaron, pointed at Road of Death extending to the west and said, "Look at these traces, are those Undead planning to go to Lordaeron?"
"No, Miss Vereesa, I think they may want to find a human criminal gang named Syndicate." Falstad said on the side, staring at the snow-covered mountain range to the west. "What a bad news."
