I have one more World of Warcraft Necromancer than you

With the supervising officer Minette temporarily dismissed, the gravediggers relaxed slightly...

The taciturn soldiers breathed a sigh of relief. Even if they were not afraid of death, they felt extremely lucky to have survived.

......

The surviving gravediggers split into six teams, each searching in one of the four directions...

The remaining two teams, one team occupied the high ground of Wolfsburg to guard the lake and all intersections on the island.

Another formidable team, led by a Shadow Priest, entered Wolfsburg with Lorraine to search the area.

Wolfsburg occupies half the size of Fenice Island, and apart from a small grove of trees near the cracks in the blasted wall, there are few obstructions around it. The island itself is relatively flat.

Who would have thought that such a small place would cause such a long fuss between the two sides?

Both the attacking and defending sides ultimately suffered significant losses...

The path was littered with shattered bones and remains; there were almost no survivors. It seemed the humans had all fled...

......

Thule & Duck Claw's research on immortality ultimately came to nothing.

Hiding on an island, dreaming of worldwide fame, all he did was insignificant in the grand scheme of Azeroth's history, not even a tiny ripple...

Compared to the constant battles between the Alliance and the Horde, the necromancer Thule's defeat was merely a minor episode in the war, but it marked the beginning of the necromancer Lorraine's rise to power...

The secrets left behind by the monk Tule on the island are all in the underground chamber...

Entering through a crack in the wall, the group discovered an underground palace complex...

......

This underground structure even extends to the bottom of the lake.

The deepest part seems to extend towards Undercity...

Walk a few more steps and you'll find that the extended underwater passage has been destroyed, leaving behind a pile of rubble.

It seems there's still water seeping in; I wonder where the other side leads?

......

"Did you bring them all back?"

"All the survivors inside the castle have been captured, and those who couldn't be taken away have been disposed of."

Deep within the dungeons of the Undercity's Alchemy Quarter, two assassins shrouded in black robes whispered amongst themselves in a corner...

"Where are the notes the Grand Pharmacist asked you to find?"

"It has been found, but it is incomplete... I don't know if it was deliberately torn off by Tule & Duck Claw."

......

The few Dalaran mage apprentices who survived on the island all ended up in the Undercity dungeons.

Among them were the intermediate-level arcane mage Joseph, and his two most promising disciples, the novice mages Eileen and Taylor.

Their magic was sealed, and they were imprisoned in iron cages suspended in mid-air.

The terrifying, sharp instruments of torture, the filthy torture table, and the human remains hanging everywhere terrified Eileen, who cowered in a corner of the cage.

Besides these three Dalaran mages, there were also several militiamen from Burnwood Village.

They all became experimental materials in the alchemy district before the Grand Apothecary conducted his experiments.

The interrogators assigned to the [Undead Sentinels] will conduct a comprehensive physical examination on them...

......

For the sake of the future of all the Forsaken, the Dark Queen remained constantly wary of other races.

She desperately needed a new plague potion that could kill both the living and the undead—one that could fight against other races, whether Horde or Alliance, as well as the Scourge's undead.

To achieve this goal, the Royal Apothecary Guild, composed of pharmacists, wizards, thieves, and necromancers, was established!

The primary goal of the Royal Apothecaries Society is to develop the Great Plague needed by Queen Sylvanas.

The person in charge of this project was the great pharmacist Prester.

......

To achieve their research goals, the Royal Alchemy Society collected recipes and materials throughout the territory occupied by the tribe.

Secretly conducting research in the territory of the Forsaken...

The reason why the sewers of Undercity are perpetually filled with green, toxic water is largely due to the blatant discharge of residual wastewater from experiments...

The desolation of everything around Silverpine Forest is inextricably linked to the Royal Alchemy Society.

They publicly claimed that the scientists were responsible for all these consequences due to a natural disaster!

......

"Those guys, Tule actually succeeded? They actually upgraded their constructs!"

The Grand Apothecary flipped through the research notes brought back by the assassins.

The assassins sent by this group of [Undead Sentinels] were primarily targeting the research notes of the necromancer Thule.

The secondary objective was to aid the gravediggers' garrison...that was just a pretext and a reason for sending troops.

......

"You didn't catch it in person?"

“Yes, Lord Prester. After Thule transformed, our attacks were ineffective, and we lost two brothers. He escaped into the lake; it seems a monster underwater helped him…”

Hybrid constructs are that powerful? This is a promising research direction! It's a pity we lack data on the crucial parts...

The master pharmacist clicked his tongue in amazement; the last few pages of the notebook he opened had been torn out...

A mere human necromancer managed to withstand the siege of the [Undead Sentinels] and even killed two high-level undead assassins.

You should know that if these assassins launch a sneak attack, anyone below the level of a high-level mage has almost no chance of winning.

Their assassinations are those of true experts.

When the Grand Apothecary Prester learned of the conflict on Fenness Island, he immediately anticipated that Thule's research might be exposed.

The Royal Academy of Pharmacists has close ties with the elite guard of Varimathras.

He received the news immediately: some things had to be retrieved and must not be exposed!

So he dispatched the Undead Sentinels to steal Thule's research findings...

As a Grand Apothecary, equivalent to a general at the 12th rank in the tribal army, he has the authority to mobilize a squad of assassins to carry out secret missions.

It's a pity we couldn't capture Tule & Duck Claw alive.

After reviewing Thule's research notes, the Grand Apothecary was very keen to accept Thule as a member of the Royal Alchemist's Guild...

Previously, I had only heard that he conducted research on the island and would often share his work through secret passages...

Unfortunately, Tule is no longer here.

......

Meanwhile, inside Wolfsburg...

Lorraine and the Shadow Priest have made an amazing discovery!

The Book of Liches contains methods for necromancy and the creation of soulless constructs.

There is also a basic tutorial on how to use soul power.

Aegwynn sent Lorraine to Clearwater Island to find the Lich Book, but he didn't go.

Liches have also been spotted in Clearwater Lake...

But Lorraine also found a similar book on the bookshelf in Thule's underground secret room.

He secretly hid it...

The Shadow Priest saw him take a book but didn't say anything...

Pretend you didn't see anything.

On Thule's exquisite desk, there was another book, the Book of Ur!

It contains information about werewolf magic.

On the table were letters from the nobles of Arugau, Umbermill, and Gilneas.

Lorraine can read human writing, but humans cannot understand the language of the dead.

The sorcerer Tule & Duck Claw were proficient in several languages ​​and scripts, proving that the sorcerer's study of wisdom techniques was indeed very useful.

The letters on the table were a huge find. After a quick glance, Lorraine handed over the Book of Ur and these secret letters to the Shadow Priest.

......

The letter also mentioned that the mage of Ambermir would send people to provide support.

They will build fortifications between the farms and mines between Serbocher and Pyrewood Village...

Shadowfang Keep will also send reinforcements to attack Undercity.

They also contacted Scarlet Crusade spies, and the two sides agreed to launch a pincer attack to wipe out the Forsaken in one fell swoop...

Thule secretly contacted Scholomance, instructing them to launch attacks on places like Deathstroke from the coast to divert the Forsaken's military forces.

This time, the human factions of Gilneas and Dalaran, along with the Scarlet Crusade of Scarlet Monastery, are preparing to reclaim the territory near the capital city of Lordaeron!

"Hahaha, these foolish humans, how dare they defy the Queen's majesty! Do they think a few paladins made up of farmers and Gilnean wolves can defeat our Forsaken Legion?"

The Shadow Priest Orlister scoffed disdainfully.

However, he quickly put the secret letter away and prepared to send someone back to relay the urgent military intelligence!

We must thwart their plot!

"Lord Orist, the letter says the Cenarion Circle has sent druidic envoys to Gilneas. If the Alliance intervenes, our situation as Forsaken will be very dire!"

"I didn't expect you to have such a good strategic vision, scout. I think you're capable of becoming a general someday. Would you like to join our Gravekeepers' Garrison?"

Lorraine listened to her teacher's analysis of how these letters illustrated one thing!

The battle on Fenice Island could very well ignite a war between the Alliance and the Horde.

The threats from Dalaran and Gilneas are secondary!

...The alliance's intervention is the real threat!

“Lord Orlister, now is not the time to talk about this. The most important thing right now is to get back to Serbercher... I have urgent business to attend to in Undercity.”

"Alright, I need to arrange some defenses here. You may proceed. The gravedigger will not forget your kindness. Remember to go back and find the apothecary Friel; he's my friend. He can help you!"

"Thank you so much!"

"Have a safe journey..."
