Chapter 266: Shadowfang Castle's choice

When Arthas led the army to Shadowfang Castle, Terenas also learned the news.
The lord of Lordaeron felt extremely entangled at this time-the war between Lordaeron and Gilneas had been going on for a long time, and now once Arthas withdrew from the battlefield, I am afraid that other forces will have the opportunity to investigate the Paladin. The real cause of death is not only unable to annex Gilneas, Lordaeron's reputation will also plummet.
But he didn't have any eloquent reason to stop Alsace's actions.
In desperation, Terenas could only send an emissary to inform Arthas to surround Shadowfang Castle for the time being, not to attack, and to maintain military pressure on the Greymane Wall.
At the same time, under the gold coin offensive of Terenas, Blackfuse began to suppress Gilneas again.
But when the messenger arrived at Shadowfang Castle, the situation was not what Terenas thought.
At this time, the messy Shadowfang Castle was completely occupied by the death knight. Kel'Thuzad and Mal'Ganis worked together to transfer most of the death knights from Dunhold Castle here.
These semi-finished death knights are riding skeletal war horses, constantly harassing the residents of the nearby Burning Wood Village, and Mal'Ganis has not lied, and the residents who died in their hands will indeed stand up and become zombies.
Seeing the army led by Prince Arthas came here, the residents of Fenmu Village began to cry to him—and seeing the countless new graves appearing in the wilderness, Prince Arthas became even more angry.
Facing Terenas' order, Arthas chose to refuse.
"The situation is different. We didn't know before. These death knights have caused so much trouble. Now it is not enough to encircle them. Their mobility is too strong. Only by solving them on the spot can they save the residents here."
Then Arthas ignored his father's orders and launched an attack on Shadowfang Castle.
This is an extremely hard battle.
Shadowfang Castle is not that big, which means that it is difficult to fully deploy the army under Arthas. Only a small number of soldiers can rush into the castle each time and meet the ghostly death knights.
In the beginning, relying on the red dragon's potion and the priest's purification, even if a soldier is injured, it can be saved. But later, there were fewer and fewer medicines, and the priest's spirit became more and more exhausted. Once the soldier was injured, he was almost sentenced to death.
"Stop taking people to charge, Arthas!"
Jaina finally couldn't help but began to persuade her boyfriend.
"We can wait for a while and wait for the new reinforcements from Dalaran or Lordaeron-I think Master Klass should have some potions. With the support of potions, none of the death knights here will be able to run away. Will not pay too many casualties."
Arthas knew that Jaina was right, so he nodded and agreed.
Jaina returned directly to Dalaran to search for Krasus, while Arthas was on standby, waiting for support.
But at this moment, an accident happened.
The soldiers of Lordaeron found the marks of the cursed sect in Fenmu Village, and these familiar marks made Arthas uneasy.
During subsequent inspections, Alsace finally found that the noodles and rice consumed by the residents here were also infected-but the dose was not very large.
If Arthas still had the red dragon potion in his hand at this time, I am afraid this is not a problem.
Unfortunately, due to the prince's eagerness, most of his potions were used in the process of storming Shadowfang Castle, and the entire Fenmu Village was almost incurable.
At this time, Alsace's men proposed to isolate the village first, and wait for Jaina to retrieve the potion before processing, but it was too late.
Zombies appeared in Fenmu Village.
Standing under the big tree at the head of Fenmu Village, Arthas looked sadly at this lifeless little village.
How to do?
Waiting for Jaina?
However, the Red Dragon Potion cannot save people who have become zombies. It is only effective for those who have not completely transformed. Once the transformation is completed, the entire villagers in Fenmu Village will become enemies.
Fenmu Village is a big village, and there are still thousands of people-in this empty place, once they break through the encirclement, God knows what will happen!
Not waiting for Jaina? What can I do?
Without the medicine, the priest is exhausted, should he kill these villagers directly?
The villagers did nothing wrong!
"His Royal Highness, what are we—what should we do?"
Facing his subordinates' questions, Arthas finally gritted his teeth.
"Soldiers of Lordaeron, take up your weapons now."
"There has been an accident in Fenmu Village, and the villagers here have been infected."
"We can't help now because we can't do anything; but we can't just sit back and watch, otherwise we will pay the price in blood."
"So, we can only send them off in person, and hope that they will not suffer in heaven..."
Many soldiers took up their weapons in silence, but some shook their heads and refused.
For those soldiers who refused, Arthas didn't say much, just let them guard outside the village.
Arthas personally carried the revenge of the Holy Light, and led his soldiers into Fenmu Village.
"His Royal Highness, good day!"
"Hello, Brother Prince!"
"His Royal Highness Prince……"
Arthas responded to those who greeted him one by one, and then cast the blessing of the king again and again-finally he raised the light of revenge.
Whether young or old, one innocent villager fell in a pool of blood~EbookFREE.me~ Alsace mechanically waved his warhammer, reaping his life. He wanted to cry, but found that his eyes were dry and terrifying.
The blood soaked the entire Fenmu Village, and the pungent smell attracted the wolves in the Silverpine Forest. After the end of the massacre, the angry Arthas rushed directly into the wolves, with the Holy Shield Technique. Massacre.
After some venting, Arthas, who was still red-eyed, finally regrouped his army, and once again launched an attack on Silver Tooth Castle.
This time, the angry Alsace and the angry soldiers no longer cared about casualties. They charged like crazy-every soldier who participated in the massacre was eager to die. They didn't know what attitude they should continue. Live.
After paying a painful price, Alsace finally came to the deepest part of the castle.
There, Mal'Ganis had been waiting for a long time.
"How about, my poor little prince? It's uncomfortable to slaughter your own people by yourself? But this is just the beginning..." (To be continued.)
