Chapter 469 Tyrande's Beasts (Part 1)
Hyrule Mountain is the battle site chosen by the Anti-Magic Alliance. The Night Elves, the Alliance, and the Horde all camp here. Despite the alliance, there is still a lot of hatred between the allies. In order to avoid internal losses, the three forces camp separately. The Alliance camps in the middle, and the elves and the Horde are on both sides. Each camp is separated by a certain distance, and communication depends on magic messengers. Richard brought Kozan's troops here to fight the magic, bringing the three parties together for a rare occasion.
"Welcome, Mr. Richard, on behalf of the Anti-Demon Coalition, I welcome everyone."
In the special combat camp, the leaders of the Anti-Demon Coalition held a ceremony to welcome Richard. The one who spoke on behalf of the coalition was the night elf druid, Malfurio Stormrage. The one who represented the tribe was Thrall, and the one who represented the Alliance was Jaina. The admiral didn't want to deal with the tribe at all.
Malfurio looked at the leaders of the Alliance and the tribe around him: "I believe you are already familiar with these few, let me introduce you to the others."
"This is my wife, Tyrande Whisperwind." Tyrande was dressed in white, but there was no white tiger that always accompanied her.
"The Moon Goddess will bless everyone who resists the demons." Richard gestured to Tyrande, who nodded slightly. Her eyes were very calm, but there was a hint of contempt that was hard to detect, which made people feel very uncomfortable. In fact, everyone, including Malfurion, discriminated against these visitors from other continents to varying degrees. These visitors destroyed their peace, and the struggle has never subsided since they set foot on their land. It's just that now they need to fight against demons, so the elves have to cooperate with these races that are considered inferior.
The line of sight shifted away from Tyrande, and next to him was Illidan. Stormrage. Illidan's answer was even simpler, just a "humph", but no one paid attention to him. Malfurion explained that his brother was like this.
Then, Richard introduced the main personnel of his side. There were not many people brought with him this time, only Fina who took care of daily life, Onyxia, the goblin leader Wuyou, the winter goddess Ligredo who provided defense for all the members, and Primatis who manipulated the self-explosive mud. Although the self-explosive mud man did not appear in the sight of the coalition forces, Zheng Vashj was stationed in Kozan. She was once the maid of the queen of the night elves, Azara, and her appearance here would easily cause unnecessary trouble.
After the introduction, they chose a place to set up camp. Richard's camp was also in the middle, and the four forces formed a diamond.
"Sir Richard, I am the magic messenger of Malfurio. Sir Malfurio asks you to go to the central area to discuss the battle."
"Got it, I'll be there later." Richard called Fina, "Fina, let's go, the rest of you stay."
The central area is an area surrounded by fences in the middle of all the camps. There is only one tent, and there is only one table in the tent. On the table, a picture of Mount Hyrule is drawn by magic. Richard entered the tent, and Malfurio, Tyrande, Thrall and Jaina had been waiting for a long time.
"Mr. Richard, your arrival has tipped the balance of victory in our favor again. Now, let me explain to you our plan for this battle."
Malfario explained to Richard in detail that this side of Mount Hyrule was very dangerous, with only one road leading up the mountain. Archimonde was very arrogant, and he would definitely launch an attack from here if the coalition forces were stationed in the camp. The coalition forces were backed by a dangerous place and arranged three lines of defense. The first line had the largest number of troops and was the main battlefield. The purpose was to consume the enemy's manpower and force Archimonde to show up in person. The second and third lines of defense were to delay time and buy time for Malfario. When Archimonde appeared, Malfario would summon the ancestral spirits in the world tree and use the power of elves from past generations to defeat this demon. Everyone had to buy four hours for Malfario. Malfario could only start summoning after Archimonde appeared, so it was not easy to hold on for four hours.
The arrival of Richard, or more precisely, the arrival of the goblins, made Malfario's plan more feasible. He hoped that the goblins could plant explosives along the road, as many as possible, in order to destroy the road that was already difficult to walk on. Malfario also pointed out several points to set up explosives. Those places were all places where the mountain was not solid. Once exploded, it would cause a lot of rocks to fall, which would at least delay Archimonde for a few minutes to clear the road. In addition, large teleportation arrays were laid on the first and second lines of defense for the rapid movement of troops. The rest were some details that needed further discussion.
After walking out of the tent, Fina looked around and saw that no one was around. She then walked over to Richard and said, "That Tyrande's gaze is really uncomfortable."
"You think so, too?"
"Yeah, and it's completely invisible from the outside, but there's just a feeling that makes people feel very uncomfortable, as if, as if she's looking at a lowly creature."
"Yes, I felt it too. The night elves have lived in this world for a long time. The two elves you just saw are tens of thousands of years old. This has been their home since ancient times. We outsiders are just passers-by in their lives, and we all look weird. Naturally, these proud guys will not put us on an equal footing with them unless we show strength that is enough to shock them. However, when we show our strength, it will be the time for them to surrender or perish. Now, if anyone brings us unhappiness, we just have to find a way to deal with him."
"But, this is a camp..."
"So, we should look for an opportunity, right?"
Even though Tyrande is already over ten thousand years old, her figure is still the same as when she was young. She should thank the guardian dragons. With their blessings, the night elves will not reach the end of their lifespan, let alone age. But the question is, Richard really wants to know how Tyrande has survived to this day. She is the high priest of the night elves and established the military organization of the night elves. Is she paralyzed by working all the time? But some things can't be paralyzed. There is an old saying that "a man is as fierce as a wolf at thirty and as fierce as a tiger at forty". Tyrande's husband entered the Emerald Dream not long after the victory ten thousand years ago. He spent most of these years alone. How did he solve certain needs? By himself? With the white axe under his crotch? Or... Malfario. Stormrage's real name is Malfario. Green Wind?
The more Richard thought about it, the more it made sense. Maybe we can add some green to Green Wind, oh no, Stormrage's head? This is indeed a choice that meets various views...
