Chapter 581: Shadow of Lordaeron 3

Just as everyone was celebrating Terenas's acquisition of a rare treasure, the crystal named Lordaeron's Eye flashed slightly.

The power of darkness is hidden in the shadows under this prosperity and then quietly spreads to the entire city.

The next day, the whole Lordaeron knew that a lucky man was personally awarded the title of baron by the king at the banquet yesterday. Lawrence became the topic of conversation in the streets and alleys during this period, and more people paid attention to the mysterious crystal called the Eye of Lordaeron. It is said that everyone who has seen this crystal praised it. It is called the beautiful gem of Azeroth. Of course, this is just Lordaeron said so.

And amid the turbulent discussions of these people, something strange began to appear in the shadow of the city.

Lordaeron, sewer.

As a city with a long history, Lordaeron has a huge and complex sewer system. At the beginning of the city's construction, the sewers here were built together. It is said that the design of this city also borrowed from the city of high elves.

Every city has dark corners, and mice in the city hide in these dark corners. The sewer is just one of the places. As a place where the city is dirty, the smell inside is unbearable. Naturally, few people check it. Only after a period of time will people go to clear the sewer.

Because of this, this place has become a hotbed for various crimes and smuggling. Almost every day, corpses are thrown into the sewer and washed away by sewage. Some smugglers will also transport various prohibited items in these sewers. A huge invisible interest network has been formed around this place.

However, this interest network has had some problems during this period. Some monsters appeared in the sewer. A team of smuggling teams carrying prohibited items disappeared. This kind of thing cannot be asked for help from the official, nor can it seek help from the Paladin, so it can only be solved by itself.

A well-equipped armed team entered the sewer. The purpose of these people was to find the goods they all had and to solve the monsters that appeared. This kind of work was already very familiar to them. After all, some monsters would appear in the sewer every time, some would enter inadvertently, and some would mutate wild beasts. So although these people were vigilant, they did not pay too much attention.

Sean walked carefully in the dirty sewers. As a thief, he had trained in various environments. He had also experienced the harsh environments than here, but the odor in the sewers was still unbearable. Various garbage floated on the turbid sewage, and sometimes there were the corpses of some highly rotten wild dogs and cats. Several huge rats rushed by their feet. Sean frowned. Although he had undergone rigorous training, this environment was still disgusting from the bottom of his heart.

Whoosh!

In this moment, a sudden change occurred!

A ball of black things suddenly jumped out of the darkness, and a pair of scarlet eyes made people feel scared from the bottom of their hearts. The black shadow rushed towards Sean like lightning!

"Swoosh swish swish!"

With a light sound of a crossbow, three sharp arrows shining with cold light shot into the shadow one after another. The shadow rushed over was nailed to the ground by the arrows. Only then did Sean see clearly what the shadow was.

This is a wild dog, but unlike a normal wild dog, the hair on this wild dog is falling off, and many of the exposed skin are rotten, emitting a foul smell. The teeth are obviously larger than ordinary wild dogs, their eyes are red, and there is turbid mucus hanging on their jaws, which looks very disgusting, and dark red blood slowly flows out from under the body.

"What happened to Sean?" A sound of footsteps came not far away, and several other team members came over.

"It's okay, I encountered a mutant wild dog, and it has been solved!" He said after re-stringing the crossbow.

"Be careful, this wild dog has some problems." A soldier said, picking the corpse of the mutant wild dog with his long sword in his hand.

"This wild dog is likely infected with the plague!"

"Plague?" Several people around were also shocked and looked over.

"Look at its eyes and these sticky saliva, these are not mutations!" The warrior pointed to the corpse of the mutant wild dog and said.

"Sure enough!" Everyone looked at each other and it was indeed the case.

Plague is still terrible for ordinary people, with a high mortality rate, but the threat to professionals is limited. Their strong bodies can be immune to many diseases.

"Burn it!" said a man who looked like a captain. Then, another soldier went out and poured a bottle of strong wine directly on it, and then ignited it with a torch. In an instant, a stinking smell of protein filled the air, and the few people continued to walk deep into the sewer without stopping.

In the sewer, in a remote passage, several figures with stiff bodies were walking around at will. They had no weapons, their clothes were tattered, and many places were rotten, looking like corpses.

......

"who?"

In the dark shadow, Sean immediately became alert after noticing the movement in the passage. The crossbow that had been stringed was already pointing at the black shadow not far away.

A slight footsteps came from the passage. Then a familiar face appeared in front of Sean. After seeing the other person's appearance clearly, Sean looked a little relaxed, but the crossbow still did not put down, and slowly said: "Alex, where are the rest of your team? What happened to you, what are the goods transported?"

Seeing the official last missing member of the transport team that appeared, Sean quickly asked, and was also alert. Smuggling businesses usually make huge profits, and some transport personnel were willing to kill other members and escape with goods. Now that he encountered the missing team members before, he couldn't help but think of something.

The smuggling team member named Alex in front did not speak, but walked slowly over.

"Why don't you speak?"

"Stop! Or I'll attack!" Sean suddenly noticed something was wrong. His fingers were already on the cover of the crossbow. As long as he gently pulled them, the three Jinggang swords would shoot instantly. He was very confident in the crossbow in his hand. This was something he specially customized for the dwarf master. It was powerful. Even the exquisite iron armor could be shot easily at such a close distance.

"Roar!" The man named Alex finally said something.

Then instantly turned into a afterimage and flew over. Sean didn't even think about it, and directly pulled the mechanical scoop. He heard three sharp arrows slashing through the air, and then pushed into the figure that was pounced on. The huge movement made the black shadow's movement pause, but then the black shadow continued to pounce.

Sean was shocked. He knew the power of the crossbow. At such a close distance, three arrows were hit, and even wearing armor, there was no possibility of survival. The black shadow in front of him seemed to have no effect except for his pause.

The black shadow pounced out from the dark passage. With the help of the torch, Sean clearly saw the figure of "Alex". It was not right that he should not be Alex anymore. This is a crossbow arrow that has begun to decay and has three stainless steel on the chest of "Alex".

"You are not Alex, who are you?" Seeing this scene, Sean's face changed drastically.

At this moment, a messy footsteps came from behind, and several other members of the team also came here. Seeing this situation, everyone started the attack with a tacit understanding. Soon Alex was killed and his body was even split into several pieces.

But before they could breathe a sigh of relief, a figure kept coming out of the surrounding passage. After seeing everyone, these figures rushed up directly, mixed with some rotten crawling monsters. These crawling monsters looked like humans, but their claws were ferocious, their teeth were protruding, and their movements were agile. They rushed towards the team one by one without fear of death. At this time, the people in the team discovered that they were surrounded...

The things in the sewer were not noticed by others. Lordaeron still looked very calm, and only in some dark corners would some sins happen. However, some strange things happened in the cemetery outside the city, and many buried corpses were stolen. Such vicious incidents naturally require inspection, so a team of paladins were sent to investigate.

But before they could complete the investigation, corpses were stolen in another cemetery. Some witnesses said that the bodies were crawled out of the grave themselves, but their words did not attract the attention of those in power, and even used them as jokes after dinner. But soon they couldn't laugh.

The paladins found some resurrected corpses. Among them, the resurrected corpses were unconscious and fearless. They were also very numerous. What's even more terrifying is that after being killed by these corpses, the corpses would soon be resurrected again. The resurrected corpses have already panic among the people.

The issue of the resurrection of the dead body also alarmed the Dragon God Church. More than half of the power of faith were provided by humans. They obviously increased their attention to this incident, and teams of apology knights also began to be dispatched. Apology knights are very similar to paladins. Apology knights use divine power, and paladins use holy light. Unlike paladins, apology knights rely on pious faith, while paladins rely on the power of the mind. The holy light of this world is more like a kind of spiritual power.

When they are firm in their hearts and believe that their path is correct, the holy light will become stronger and stronger. If there is a shake in their hearts, the holy light will immediately weaken. The human paladins believe in the holy light and are firm in their hearts, so they can use the power of holy light.

The Holy Light is fooling you! This is not just a false statement!
