Is Stormwind Kingdom going to be destroyed?
This is sothing that every citizen of Stormwind has been discussing privately over the past few months.
The orcs were so terrifying that every survivor told others about their fear.
If it weren't for King Llane, clad in dazzling golden armor, patrolling the walls of Stormwind three tis a day, perhaps this unrest would have spread endlessly.
Llane Wrynn, Anduin Lothar, and Bolvar Fordragon, at so point, the three of them had beco the backbone of the people. And looking at the walls that were getting taller and thicker, and the huge, bizarre-shaped arrow towers and trebuchets that were growing almost a floor higher every day, the people finally felt a little comforted.
Standing on the outer wall of Stormwind City and looking at the dense forest in the distance for a while, Llane turned his sight back to the near. The original outer wall of Stormwind City had been transford beyond recognition.
After the outer wall was nearly doubled in thickness using the magical "cent", the height of the wall was also increased by half. Not only that, two more walls were added outside the outer wall, and two huge hunting spaces were made between the walls. According to the blueprint, this is called a "city wall".
The three city walls were connected by a relatively narrow passage, with only a large iron plate placed at the key point. There was also a bolt next to the iron plate, tied to a small pass. As long as a soldier pulled out the bolt, or soone on the city wall pulled out the iron chain connecting the bolt, the iron plate would fall down.
Not only that, the newly built city wall is also different from the traditional one. From the outside, it looks like there are many mysterious diamond shapes.
Regarding this prismatic structure, all officers who have been to the front lines, whether it is Lothar or Bolvar, have praised it and said it can effectively resist the orcs' crude but powerful catapults.
Behind the three-layer outer wall is a huge hexagonal arrow tower rising from the ground, with the pointed side facing outwards. The arrow tower becos narrower as it goes up. If it weren't for the ergence of a technology called "reverse molding", this would be incredible.
In addition to arrow towers, there are also larger turrets that can accommodate several crossbows or a large catapult.
There are so many war machines that it's scary just to see them, and all of this was done after the orcs invaded Elwynn Forest.
"Edwin, are these all Duke's drawings?" Llane was very satisfied, but still asked the young man who was following him with a little doubt.
Edwin VanCleef, 28 years old, is a senior foreman of the Brotherhood of Stonemasons. However, he is now employed by the Duke and serves as the engineering supervisor sent by the Duke to serve the king.
"Yes, Your Majesty." At this mont, VanCleef was far from the evil leader in later generations who was alienated by a despicable black dragon, persecuted by Stormwind nobles, and then rose up to form the 'Defias Brotherhood' and occupied the Moonbrook Town in the Western Wilderness, turning the mines there into Deathmines, attacking any Stormwind citizen, and opposing the Stormwind regi.
At this ti, Edwin VanCleef was at his most passionate and upright age.
He was flattered when Makaro ca to him with Duke's instructions.
Makaro is the "butler" of Sea King Duke!
Edmund Duke - the kingdom's most dazzling star, a rapidly rising business tycoon, a rising star in the magic world, and the master of another new force in the Stormwind.
And he was just a craftsman who was completely looked down upon by the upper class.
Unexpectedly, Duke's agent Makaro actually found him in person. When Makaro explained his purpose and said that Duke wanted to take him as a direct follower, he accepted the invitation from Duke almost without hesitation.
Even though he never had the chance to et his master, what happened afterwards further strengthened Edwin's loyalty.
Duke asked him to build a large number of fortresses for the kingdom to slow down the advance of the orc army and rebuild the defense system of Stormwind City.
The wages were good. Duke paid all the wages in advance: either gold coins, or the best white bread, or delicious sea fish. When these choices were placed in front of Van Cleef, he almost cried on the spot. Because of the influx of a large number of refugees in Stormwind, the supply of daily necessities beca difficult, and these three things were urgently needed by the mbers of the Stonemason Brotherhood who were in poverty.
In addition, the national crisis made the craftsn burst out with 200% enthusiasm and worked almost selflessly. Countless people fainted from exhaustion on the construction site, but no one complained.
Duke also fulfilled his promise and sent a special ship in advance to send off the craftsn's families. You know, generally speaking, the first batch to leave is a treatnt only for noble lords.
After sending his beloved daughter Vanessa away, Edwin beca even more devoted to Duke.
King Llane didn't know about these little things, but he was pleased to see Edwin's almost fanatical loyalty. He patted Edwin on the shoulder and said, "You've done a good job. The outer wall is done, you can go and work on the inner wall. The orcs are coming soon, and the next step is the warrior's territory."
"As you command, Your Majesty."
In a mont, a strong wind mixed with a foul odor suddenly erged from the woods. The surging airflow kept spinning, carrying sand, dust and weeds into the air, and they gathered together to form a huge wind wave.
The strong wind passed through the flat forest and blew towards the outer wall of Stormwind City. The blown leaves and sand almost made the soldiers unable to raise their heads.
At this mont, everyone couldn't help but cover their eyes with their hands. They let their hair sway in the gap between the helt and their head, and were surprised to see the green appearing in the woods with the strong wind.
The surging green, the green with thunderous footsteps, countless strange greens filled the entire forest, like marching ants all over the mountains, converging into rivers, and the rivers turned into oceans, pouring out of the forest.
The thick green tide rolled endlessly, and the orcs' blood was like a raging tide, squeezing out from every gap in the forest. Every corner of the entire forest surged, and this ominous green was reflected in the eyes of every warrior.
What followed was the sound of war drums and trumpets like thunder.
In preparation for the battle, all the trees within a kiloter of the city wall had been cut down.
However, the green tide of orcs filled the 800-ter open space in the distant field of vision.
In front of him was a tall green-skinned orc, carrying two huge animal skeletons on his shoulders. He was riding a warg, which was the largest even among wolves. This warg was three tis more majestic than the largest bull that humans had ever seen.
The leader wolf raised half of its body and howled towards the sky, its pure black mane spread out in the wind, looking ferocious and awe-inspiring.
"Ah, ah, ah—"
