After the Night Elfs regained their composure from the chaos, the assassins also hid themselves again. They were able to succeed in succession just now because no one was paying attention. Now if they want to take action in this situation, they must be mentally prepared to be killed themselves.

Seeing that the area gradually returned to calm, Aaron briefly organized his thoughts and looked at Vereesa, "Illuminating arrows, find those Stealth first."

Vereesa nodded, and an arrow with the power of Arcane flew diagonally over the crowd, turning into brilliant light and illuminating the surrounding area. Several sneaky figures were reflected under the light created by Arcane. Without Aaron's orders, the soldiers first caught these assassins who wanted to create chaos again.

"Okay, let's solve the easy ones first." Aaron pressed his forehead, but any smart assassin knows that entering Stealth in this situation will easily make him a target. So what will a smart person do at this time?

Gazing across the still-suspicious crowd, Aaron was convinced that many assassins among them must have pretended to be Night Elf civilians. Anyway, these people had all escaped and were not familiar with each other. There was no need to worry about anyone recognizing their identities.

"How about arresting them all?" Night Elf, who looked like the captain, said to Aaron. In fact, this man was also muttering in his heart, he didn't know Aaron. However, Aaron's calm and composed performance in commanding just now really shocked him. Even if Aaron's identity was not confirmed, he spoke to Aaron in a polite manner.

"Catch them all? Is Black Rook Hold's dungeon that big?" Aaron glanced at him, looking at the crowd who became a little restless because of the increasing panic in their hearts over time, and sighed, "I have to use a more troublesome method. It is better than standing like this."

After saying that, Aaron and the captain Night Elf whispered a few words, causing the other party to look at him suspiciously for a while before he began to instruct the soldiers to act according to his plan.

Not long after, the originally bustling crowd was forcibly dispersed by the soldiers and stood in a relatively dispersed formation, with these soldiers standing in between, making people confused for a while.

Although ordinary Night Elf civilians didn't know what this was about, they thought it had nothing to do with them, so they cooperated. However, the assassins were thinking about the hope of rushing out while the surveillance was relatively loose. Then they heard a beast's roar that was like a demonic sound entering their brains.

Those ordinary civilians behaved very badly under this roar, and some even collapsed to the ground. This was not only because of the impact of this roar, but also contributed greatly to the fear and fear they had been hiding these days.

However, some people recovered relatively quickly and just shook their heads and regained consciousness. However, compared to other people who were still sluggish or even fell directly to the ground, these people stood out a bit. The soldiers who had been prepared were not polite and controlled all these people. If the target dared to resist, they would inevitably be beaten and kicked by the soldiers, but this was nothing compared to those people killed by the assassins just now.

"Ahem, these people may not all be assassins. You should be careful to distinguish them, but it is better to control them all now." Aaron explained to the soldiers while coughing.

"You, are you looking for assassins like this?" Vereesa, although he was well prepared after being reminded by Aaron, was still a little dizzy and complained, "Can't you find Arcanist to solve the problem?"

"Isn't this time urgent..." Aaron explained to Vereesa on the surface, but what he was thinking was why I used the spell Ursoc taught me to borrow Goldrinn's power?

This spell is one of the signature skills of the guardian Druid, that is, those Druid protected by Ursoc. Its main function is to paralyze the enemy with a roar, but Aaron takes advantage of the fact that this spell affects different people at different times.

When Aaron thinks about it, the assassins who will be sent to Black Rook Hold must have some skills, so they will definitely recover from the influence of the spell faster than others. It has to be said that this is an absolutely stupid method, which means that not many Night Elf know what Druid is, otherwise they will definitely be targeted.

Things here have come to an end, but chaos remains in other parts of Black Rook Hold. The assassins who sneaked in did not choose to attack as soon as they came in, waiting to create even greater chaos now.

However, because the number of refugees in Black Rook Hold is not large, the number of assassins is even smaller. There are only twenty or thirty people in full force. The reason why Aaron has a larger number of assassins is because they have gathered the largest number of refugees, and some of them are mistakenly identified as assassins.

Of course, what the masterminds behind the assassins do not need is the key figures they need to assassinate Black Rook Hold. Without detailed information, it is difficult to achieve targeted assassination. What they need is for Black Rook Hold to create chaos. Only with chaos can there be a chance.

Aaron helped the soldiers control the situation, which weakened the impact of the enemy's plan. The largest number of assassins were under control. The scale of chaos in Black Rook Hold was not that big. After the initial chaos passed, the assassins were captured one by one or even killed on the spot.

The best performer among them was Illidan, who unceremoniously commanded Moon Guard to hunt down the assassins, and his performance in the process gradually convinced the mages in Moon Guard. They themselves were in the Kaldorei Empire Among the, Arcanist was not even the strongest, otherwise he would not have been recruited by Kur'talos. Faced with Illidan, whose strength and talent far exceeded them, they quickly accepted his command.

Just as the assassins were hiding in various places, a new round of attack came. This time, it was no longer demons who attacked Black Rook Hold, but a group of Night Elf, or in other words, Highborne.

"Did they actually take the initiative to attack us?" Kur'talos looked at these compatriots who were waiting for them, and an inexplicable emotion arose in his heart. It felt like he had been betrayed, and it felt like a stone had finally fallen to the ground in his heart.

Aaron did see some clues. These Night Elfs that appeared in addition to Black Rook Hold all had more or less traces of corrosion left by Fel. The person leading the charge looked somewhat familiar...

"Xavius, are you the one who came to attack my Black Rook Hold?"

"Kur'talos, stop resisting, surrender and let me exchange you for more power." Xavius's answer can be regarded as answering some of the questions in Kur'talos's mind: These Night Elf want to exchange for more power from the Burning Legion.
