When Aaron woke up leisurely, it was already bright. Aaron, who was still a little confused, looked at the wall behind him and listened to the sound of fighting in his ears. Only then did he realize that he was now in Dalaran and not Covenant City.
"Are you still fighting?" Aaron shook his head. His fatigue had not been relieved by the previous sleep. His whole body was still sore after even the slightest movement. Of course, this was also related to the fact that the place where Aaron slept before was on the city wall.
"Yes, they are still fighting. Those Undead don't seem to be planning to stop and rest." A slightly tired voice came from beside Aaron. He turned around and saw Vereesa with a tired face. This girl had also persisted on the city wall all night, and she looked extremely tired at this time.
"I think you also need to rest for a while." Aaron recalled that since arriving at Durnholde, Vereesa seemed to have often participated in battles all night long. Looking at Vereesa's listless appearance, Aaron felt a little distressed, "It doesn't matter if you are missing on this battlefield. You don't need to be so strong."
"You still care about me. You should take a look at your own situation first. I almost thought you died outside last night." Vereesa said this, but he also sat next to Aaron and leaned on the city wall. "Now you are also awake. I will rest here for a while and you can help me look after it. When you are free, go and bring me some food."
"Okay, you rest first." Aaron said with a smile, turning his head to look at Vereesa who slowly closed his eyes. Although the battle was still going on at this time, judging from the sounds Aaron heard, the intensity of the battle at this time was not as intense as the most fierce time last night. At least Aaron hadn't seen a large-scale Undead ascend the city wall for some time after waking up.
Thinking of this, Aaron simply stood up and carefully observed the battle situation at this moment. At the top of the Dalaran city, there were obviously fewer soldiers responsible for defense than last night. Moreover, most of the soldiers and mages who were still persisting at this moment had tired faces. Even the light shining on the powerful Arcane defense tower had dimmed a lot.
The only exceptions are those giant dragons. These powerful creatures have super physical strength even in human form. A night of fighting is not a serious drain on them. At least now it seems that they can still throw a spell to bombard Undead like they did last night.
Looking at those Dalaran mages, their usual demeanor has long disappeared. At this time, most of them have red eyes and are trying to hold on. Do they need to open a bottle of potion and take a sip? It is obvious that it is some kind of irritating potion so that they can continue to fight. But everyone knows that these mages will never feel better if they hold on until the end of the battle.
The only good news is that the number of Undead currently fighting the defenders of the Dalaran side is not very large. Looking at the density, it probably only consumes the strength of the defenders. I don't know whether the Scourge side can't hold on, or they originally planned to consume the defenders' physical strength until the opportunity is right before launching a general attack.
After careful observation, Aaron found that the condition of these Undeads was not very good. Many skeleton soldiers and Ghouls had obvious missing limbs, while the relatively intact Undead also has traces of patchwork. It seems that this war of attrition is also depleting Undead's overall strength. However, Undead, who can stand up again and is tireless, clearly has an advantage.
In this way, the current situation is a bit strange, because from Aaron's point of view, the offensive and defensive sides have always been in a certain balance. Although the Undeads have never broken through the defense line on the city wall, it is incredible that the defenders can persist until this time and still fight back and forth with the Undeads.
"How long has this situation been going on?" Aaron looked at it, randomly found a giant dragon who was throwing fireballs at the skeletons on the top of the city, and asked, "I'm talking about this situation."
Aaron's words were a little unclear, but the giant dragon understood what Aaron meant. "I've been fighting like this for half the night. It's been like this since the skeleton giant was knocked down."
"This..." Aaron felt that the situation was even worse. It was quite embarrassing to Dalaran that a skeleton was being tossed around. Looking at the number of Undead on the city wall, it shouldn't be a problem for them to get another skeleton giant, right?
"Your human commander judged that the other party was draining the soldiers' physical strength, and has arranged several rotations." The dragon being talked to by Aaron seemed to have been bored before, and now he actually started to give Aaron Explained: "You don't need to worry too much. The monster last night was not so easy to make. They probably won't be able to make another one. They can only consume it in this way. Don't worry, with us here, even if all your soldiers fall down tired, they can still defend the city."
The dragon said very confidently, but Aaron knew that people had the capital to be confident. Dozens of giant dragons could have been stronger than a Dalaran city. If the dragons hadn't wanted to do everything for humans, they would have probably destroyed all the Undead outside the Dalaran city, including those Necropolis.
"Wait, Necropolis?" Aaron walked quickly to the edge of the city wall and looked at the hilly area behind Undead. He remembered that there should be two Scourge and parked there. Necropolis arrived with the advance army, but at this moment, the area was empty, not to mention Necropolis, not even a Undead.
And if the information previously provided by Ravenholdt is correct, Scourge brought at least a dozen Necropolis this time. Excluding a few that were demolished, where did the remaining Necropolis go?
"Did he go directly to Quel'Thalas?" In the concept of Aaron, the main purpose of Undead Scourge, in addition to destroying Azeroth's resistance as much as possible, is to summon Burning Legion is coming. In order to achieve this goal, Scourge needs two things, Book of Medivh and a powerful energy source to provide energy for summoning powerful demons. Specifically, in the case of Eastern Kingdoms, it is Sunwell.
In this case, Book of Medivh of Dalaran is very necessary. Judging from Undead Scourge's offensive last night, they really need that book. However, now those Necropolis has disappeared, and Undead are slowly fighting a war of attrition with the Dalaran defenders. How can they break through Dalaran like this?
Wait, do you really need to break Dalaran to get Book of Medivh? No need at all.
"Not good!" After Aaron realized this, he immediately limped towards the temporary headquarters of the defenders. There was something he felt it was necessary to confirm.
