" Nicholas, are you sure the three of us are enough? I think we should ask Lady Modera for help. Dalaran will definitely be willing to clean house!" Lorna looked at the dense forest in front of her and the castle above it, feeling that this was not a good idea.
Although she is a beautiful rose with more courage than men, isn't it too reckless for just three people to venture into Shadowfang Keep?
"Your talent is considerable. If the opportunity arises, I can introduce you to a mentor. Perhaps one day, you will become the second human ranger lord," Jiang Jie said calmly. "Lady Modera has more important matters to attend to. The Greymane Wall is crucial to the safety of Pyrewood Village and even the entire Silverpine Forest. As for Shadowfang Keep, the three of us are sufficient. Let's go up the mountain!"
The dense forest at Midnight is dangerous enough, but even more dangerous for humans, because humans have poor Darkvision, while Worgen or wild beasts have very strong Darkvision.
But Jiang Jie had to hurry, because every second of delay meant one more chance of something going wrong.
Besides, although it was night, none of the three of them were ordinary people.
Jiang Jie's eyesight is astonishing; his Darkvision is probably no less than that of Worgen. Anveena isn't even human; she directly uses Arcane energy to sense things, and her perception ability is many times stronger than Jiang Jie's.
As for Lorna, she was also a very good hunter. She once hunted alone in the forest, with two vicious dogs guarding her. Even Worgen couldn't escape their noses.
They climbed the mountain as quickly as possible, not wanting to give Arugal any time to prepare. Although they sometimes encountered wild beasts or Worgen, Jiang Jie, who was at the forefront, easily dealt with them, hardly affecting their speed of ascent.
Half an hour later, they climbed directly up the cliff and arrived outside the castle.
"It's been half a year since I last came here! I didn't expect it to have changed so much this time!" Lorna said softly.
Because she saw Worgen charging towards them; the area had truly been taken over by Worgen!
Those Worgen were incredibly fast and had amazing jumping ability, leaping directly off the castle walls and buildings, covering more than ten meters in a single bound. This jumping ability was almost comparable to Jiang Jie's; High Elf rangers rarely achieved such a feat.
" Nicholas, what's your plan? Do you know of any secret passages or hidden doors?" Lorna fired a shot, killing one Worgen instantly. Her two vicious dog Keeper rushed out and engaged another Worgen in battle.
"Plan? I Scholomance easily, Stratholme is nothing special. Shadowfang Keep is just a Shadowfang Keep with only a weakling with paper-thin magic power. What's there to worry about?" Jiang Jie drew his divine sword Strom'kar and said calmly, "No need for the main gate, just force your way in and head straight for Arugal!"
a past...
Well, although Lorna hadn't known Jiang Jie for long, she had a basic understanding of Jiang Jie style.
Although Jiang Jie started as a thief, he later became Warrior and a hunter. In essence, he was not a thief, but a martial artist.
The best assassination is to push your way through, a style that Lorna actually likes very much, because it's also her style.
Jiang Jie is a cautious and meticulous person who plans things out before acting. He thinks everything through in advance, so if he does something, it at least means his life won't be in danger. As for the rest...
The three-way division is predetermined by fate!
Leaping over the city wall, Jiang Jie's jumping ability was even stronger than the Worgen's. He reached the top of the wall in no time, took out the orange bow Thori'dal, and with a few swift arrows, killed the charging Worgen. Then, with a powerful palm strike, he killed the approaching Worgen.
The power of the orange bow is no joke, and the power of the Dragon-Subduing Palm is far greater than before. However, these Worgen have a strong vitality, several times that of ordinary humans. As long as they are not shot in vital areas such as the head or heart, they can basically still be jumping around.
Of course, that was a normal attack.
Even Worgen couldn't withstand a skill like Explosive Shot.
Jiang Jie flew to the top of the tallest building, carefully recalled the scenes in the game, and quickly determined his location.
" Anveena, this is your responsibility! Don't let a single Worgen escape! Lorna, you stay here too, it's safer with Anveena!" Jiang Jie leaped down and instantly entered the building below. He then ordered Xiao Feng to activate the game pod's telescope function, turning up the power to directly envelop the small Shadowfang Keep. Quickly, based on the feedback of bio-energy intensity, he located Arugal and the ancient magical beast Worgen.
"Huh? Worgen's energy intensity is actually higher Arugal's? As expected of a master whose magic power is thinner than paper!" Jiang Jie sneered and shook his head.
Previously, Jiang Jie had learned from his master Ansirem that, judging from Ansirem's tone, Arugal was probably the weakest of all the mages. Not only was his magical power weak, but his magical skills were also poor. It was unclear how he had even earned the title of Master. Considering his theft of the " The Book of Ur," the title was probably not obtained honorably...
" Lorna Na... how did you get here?" Jiang Jie casually dispatched a Worgen that charged at him, somewhat speechless.
Because little Lorna appeared, following right behind him, the muzzle of her musket smoking. She had just taken down a Worgen with a single shot; her marksmanship was truly accurate, hitting the Worgen in the head!
Her musket seemed to have been specially modified, more powerful and with a thicker barrel than ordinary muskets. This young lady stood there, exuding a heroic and spirited air; the way she held the musket could only be described with one word:
Guns N' Roses!
" Nicholas, I'm not just a pretty but unusable red rose! I'm a..."
"Bloodstained Rose! When I was hunting in the Blackwald, you were still Andorhal's darling!" The beautiful Rose twisted her body, raised her gun, and rushed in front of Jiang Jie. She fired her musket incessantly, basically killing him with every shot. Her marksmanship was indeed remarkable, better than many Dwarves musketeers.
"Can it be used? How? Where? Lorna Luo Na, you're so fierce and powerful, you'll never get married!" Jiang Jie chuckled and quickly followed. He saw that Lorna Luo Na was truly domineering. Although she was still wearing a long dress, her charging spirit was unmatched even by Warrior who had Charge on the battlefield!
"I've changed my mind. General Hemet is a better fit to be your teacher than General Sylvanas! Your fighting style is completely different from Sylvanas's." Jiang Jie thought for a moment, hesitated, and then felt that General Hemet didn't seem quite right either. That love hunter preferred setting traps and sniping from the shadows, which didn't match his rugged appearance at all.
Lorna's hunter- Warrior style, coupled with the two vicious hounds on her left and right, seems more like Beastmaster Rexxar.
Jiang Jie certainly wouldn't let Lorna charge ahead. It wasn't just out of chivalry; in close combat, he was definitely much better Lorna. It would be better to let the young lady stay in the back and snipe from the sidelines.
Putting away his orange bow and drawing his divine sword, Jiang Jie single-handedly blocked the way, charging alone into the not-so-wide corridor. No Worgen who charged at him would be able to escape!
"Huh? Arugal didn't run away? He summoned Worgen? And dozens of Worgen? Pretty confident!" Jiang Jie chuckled.
From Arugal's perspective, there was really no need for him to run away.
A master, an ancient magical beast, and dozens or even hundreds of Worgen —that's already a formidable force.
Of course, it's also possible that Arugal only knew that there was a surprise attack, and maybe even that there were only three people attacking, so he thought that Jiang Jie and his two companions were just looking for death, and therefore there was no need for them to escape!
Because of the game pod's navigation function, Xiao Feng directly planned the shortest and optimal route for Jiang Jie. So Jiang Jie ignored the other Worgen and Charge. In just five minutes, he arrived at the most hidden and spacious room, where he saw the legendary Master Arugal.
The room was teeming with Worgen, a small portion of Worgen seemed relatively weak, likely having recently transformed from humans and struggling to adapt to their new bodies, thus lacking significant combat abilities.
The other group of Worgen is quite extraordinary. According to the analysis of the game pod, these Worgen not only have high physical attributes, but also possess strong energy fluctuations, with an energy level that is even comparable to low- or mid-level mages.
As for the giant demonic wolf that stayed next to Arugal, which was the ancient demonic beast Worgen, its energy level was even higher, clearly at the Master level.
" Druid of the Scythe from the Emerald Dream!" Jiang Jie frowned.
