Crossing the World of Warcraft: I am an Ancient God
Chapter 7 Ambush
Faced with more and more rumors, Bona could no longer sit still. After all, his child was really hardworking. Although Yun was not at a high level, he could kill a level 4 tiger king, which was the highest level beast in the Red Ridge Forest. Even the level 5 Fang Zhou had to suffer several injuries before he could kill the tiger king. Moreover, Yun was much younger than Fang Zhou now.
After Thor's suggestion, Bona planned to bring Yun to Stormwind City. First, he wanted to test Yun's level and confirm whether Yun was only at level 2 or if he was hiding his strength. Second, he wanted to see if the master behind Yun could show up. After all, there were many level 9 characters in Stormwind City, and there were also many strange things. It was not easy to hide in Stormwind City.
A letter was delivered to the old house of the Arasso family. The old butler immediately packed up and prepared a convoy to send the second young master to Stormwind City. Yun was also very excited. After all, it was the first time he left this town, and Yun also hoped to see what the outside world was like.
It was originally just a simple trip, but no one expected that a trip would start Yun's wandering and mark the beginning of a great change in the world. Although many people do not think this is the beginning of a great change, it at least confirms that this is indeed the earliest fuse of the great change.
The convoy did not move fast. After all, according to the old butler, this journey would take ten days to complete. There was no need to tire themselves out for a one or two day journey.
On the fifth day, they had already walked out of the forest where the old house was located. Yun began to feel that something was wrong. Although there was nothing on the road, there was an inexplicable feeling of oppression filling the convoy. Even the always kind old butler began to get nervous. Although no one told Yun what had happened, Yun was not really a child and knew nothing. So he carefully sorted out his skills and equipment in the car, and also replenished enough food, water, and gold coins.
On the sixth day, Aaron arrived on a griffin, and everyone in the caravan felt relieved, at least they felt they had a backbone. That night they set up camp in a clearing in the forest. The clearing was not small, and the trees next to it showed signs of being cut down. There were obvious signs of burning in the middle of the clearing, which should be because the Arasso family always rested here.
Although Aaron came, the caravan still set up a very solid camp, with the cart outside, followed by the guards' tents, and Yun's tent in the innermost. Weapons and food were also scattered around. Everyone had made sufficient defense preparations regardless of whether there were enemies or not.
This was the first time Yun had seen such a situation, so he couldn't help but sleep uneasily. He got up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom. Standing in the dark, he always felt that there were people in the forest opposite. He was going to investigate, but since he couldn't figure out the strength of the situation, it was better not to rush in.
Yun used the “Eagle Eye Technique” to try to see more clearly.
Yun's vision changed and he was really scared. First, he was scared by the Eagle Eye Technique. He originally thought it was a telescope like in the game, but it turned out to be a night vision goggles. It was also obvious that there were many figures in the forest slowly approaching the convoy.
Yun said nothing and immediately woke Aaron up.
"What's wrong?" Aaron said vigilantly.
"Someone is coming." Yun reminded.
Aaron was startled and immediately got out of bed. He looked at Yun with some surprise, but he was relieved immediately. He hurriedly walked out of the tent quietly and began to wake up the guards quietly. Because of the carriage as a cover, the people outside did not realize that they had made preparations.
"There are indeed people, but we're not sure how many there are, and it's hard to find their location," said a guard.
"It would be great if there was some light. We have bows and arrows ready. It would be best if we could launch an attack first."
"Oh? Is it okay just to have light?" Yun asked the guard.
"Yes."
"Okay, look in that direction." Yun Huajian pointed in a direction.
The guard looked in that direction, and it was pitch black, without any light. The guard suddenly felt a light on the right, and just as he looked to the right, a ball of fire flew directly in the direction that Yun had pointed to. The fireball ignited some trees, forming a small fire. In the firelight, he could clearly see three panicked people.
The guards didn't show any mercy either. After a hail of arrows, all three of them fell.
Yun used Eagle Eye to see that four people had fallen. One of them was behind the three and was shot down by arrows.
"This time it's over there." Yun pointed in another direction. With the guidance of Eagle Eye Technique, Yun's fireball technique could always find where the enemies gathered, and then there was a rain of arrows.
The other side was also stunned by the sudden fireball. Due to the special situation in Red Ridge Mountain, the other side did not expect a magician to suddenly appear. But since they had already made it this far, they could not give up. So after making a strange noise, enemies from all directions began to rush towards the convoy.
Yun found the right direction and just as he cast the fireball, a guard with a shield suddenly blocked Yun's side.
"Bang!" With a dull sound, the guard fell down with his shield. Aaron was quick-witted and pulled Yun back. Before Yun could understand what was happening, an arrow hit the place where Yun had just stood.
"There is a high-level ranger on the opposite side. I will go out to meet him. You break out to the southeast and meet up in Laixi Town." After Aaron said this, he rushed towards the direction where the arrow came from.
Several guards did not hesitate, picked up their shields, and pulled Yun to retreat to the southeast.
Fortunately, Yun's sudden attack interrupted the opponent's layout. Before the opponent completely formed an encirclement, Aaron also discovered the opponent's gap in the first time and asked the guards to take Yun to break out to the southeast. Yun rushed out smoothly, and Yun felt a little reluctant when looking at the people in the convoy.
"Don't worry, they are all veterans of battles and know what to do. The masters are accompanied by Aaron, and the enemy's target is obviously you. If you leave, they will have no target and will only chase us. Obviously, the enemy did not expect us to attack suddenly, and will not leave too many people to deal with the rest of the convoy. This way, the people in the convoy will be much safer." The guards saw Yun's concern and explained.
Yun felt a little relieved after hearing this. Just as the guards said, the other party had obviously sent a large number of people to chase him. He couldn't take care of too much and could only break through with the guards.
After running all night, seeing that there were no more pursuers, the guards found a place to rest. Yun Si thought about it and couldn't understand how a person like him who had never been out of a small town could cause a conflict, or was ambushed by someone. Moreover, according to the book, the human continent was relatively peaceful. The three empires had their own enemies to guard against, and the major families also guarded their own side, which was a balanced situation. Now this group of people could send out experts to ambush Yun. If this was exposed, it would break this weak balance.
Regardless of whether Yun could be killed or not, Bona would definitely not give up. With so many people, they would definitely find out something. Wouldn't it be better to assassinate him? How could it not be discovered if it was done in such a high-profile manner? Yun fell asleep in confusion.
When he woke up again, there was a handsome young man standing next to him. He was definitely not the guard from before, so Yun became alert.
"Awake?" the young man asked.
"Hmm." Yun said warily.
"What? I haven't visited you in these years, and you don't recognize me anymore?" the young man said helplessly.
Yun looked carefully and indeed didn't recognize it.
"Master Fang Zhou, we can set off now." The guard came over and said.
When Yun heard this, he was extremely embarrassed. He didn't even recognize his own brother. He came all the way here, but he didn't even recognize him.
Although Aaron was missing, the guards felt much more at ease with the Ark. The group began to walk north. This direction was obviously not the Laixi Town that Aaron mentioned. Yun felt a little strange.
"Let's go to Hammer Fortress. Lexi Town is no longer safe. A unit of the Third Army is stationed at Hammer Fortress. I have sent someone to notify them to come for support. As long as we reach Twin Stone Fortress, we can meet up with the support people. Then it will be easy to go anywhere." Fang Zhou explained.
Yun didn’t understand these things, but he could still trust his own brother.
"Then how did you get here?"
"I came here on a griffin."
"Where's the Griffin?"
"There's only one, so of course I went to report the news. How else could I do that?" Fang Zhou said.
Yun felt embarrassed again. He thought he was quite smart, so how could he be so stupid on such a simple question?
Yun and his group changed direction and walked for two days without any pursuers catching up with them. Yun began to relax, thinking that he would be much safer now that he was in his own fortress.
A knight ran over from the front and everyone became alert.
Yun saw from afar that the person coming was injured, and seriously injured, and his horse was staggering. Fang Zhou recognized that it was one of his own and hurried forward.
"How did you get injured? Is there an ambush ahead?" Fang Zhou asked.
"The dragonmen from Blackrock Mountain suddenly launched an attack on Giant Hammer Fortress. The team that came out to support them ran into them. They couldn't come over. I came here to report the news."
"Dragon people attack Giant Hammer Fortress?" Fang Zhou was very surprised.
"Yeah, we were also surprised that the Flame Fortress was not attacked, but the Hammer Fortress was attacked instead."
Fang Zhou closed his eyes and thought for a while.
"They are coming for us. We can't go to Hammer Fortress anymore because there are pursuers behind us. Since they can contact the dragon people to attack, we can only go to Stone Fortress." Fang Zhou said.
"But..." The guards were a little troubled.
"There's no other way. We have no other choice."
"Why don't we go to Lakeside Town first?" Yun suggested.
"If we go to Lakeside Town, we will have no choice. At least there are many ways to get to Stone Fortress, and we can choose one." Fang Zhou said helplessly.
"Then let's go to Stone Fortress." Yun said.
"No, we go to Flame Peak, you go to Stone Fortress, I will take Yun to Flame Peak, and then take a detour to Flame Fortress." Fang Zhou said.
The guards looked at each other and thought that this was indeed a solution. Although they were doing okay, it would be difficult to protect the two young masters if they encountered a master above level seven. Moreover, with so many people, it would be easy to be exposed. It would be better for them to attract the enemy's attention as much as possible. The enemy would never have thought that the two young masters would not go to the rear, but instead go to the Flame Fortress which was isolated in the dragon army.
Once they arrive at the Flame Fortress, not only is the fortress's leader Biglawi an eighth-level warrior, but the defensive weapons in the fortress will make even a ninth-level warrior have to be careful, and they will be enough to protect the two young masters.
So the group split into two teams and set off according to their respective goals.
Fang Zhou took Yun on a completely different path.
"Are we going to the Flame Fortress just like that? Aren't we afraid of being discovered?" Yun asked in some surprise. Although the Ark had reached level five, the other party was able to send out so many people, and Aaron, who was at the peak of level seven, never returned. It was obvious that the other party had also sent out masters. A level five Ark alone should not be enough to cope with the current situation.
"There are only two of us, so we can take some small paths. After all, this is the territory of the Arasso family, and we are more familiar with it. No matter how well the other party knows, it is impossible for them to know more small paths than us. It is easier for the two of us to get rid of each other." Fang Zhou explained.
Fang Zhou actually had something else to say to Yun. There were many reasons why he came here.
On the fourth day after Yun set out, the old butler had already discovered something was wrong and sent a signal to his family in time. Aaron also set out as soon as possible. Originally, they thought they were just some low-level bandits, but then the enemies defended by each army showed unusual movements. As a result, all the masters of the Arasso family had to go out to support them. Everyone felt something was wrong all of a sudden. Although no one expected that Yun was the target this time, they all discovered something was wrong.
It was not until Aaron came back with a serious injury that the Arasso family realized that something was wrong. Then fighting broke out on all fronts. All the masters above level seven were entangled. Everyone understood that the enemy's goal seemed to be targeting Yun, but at the same time, everyone did not understand. Although Yun's identity was indeed important, was he a level two master, who should not have the opportunity to hold an important position in the family in the future? Was he worth the enemy's efforts?
Or is it that the enemy is just using the clouds as a lure to attract certain people to come for rescue, such as Bona who is now trying desperately to go back?
In everyone's analysis, they all agreed that the other party would not target Yun, but would only hold back all the masters. Bona was eager to save the child, and they would attack Bona when his guarding ability was the weakest. Once Bona encountered an accident, Fang Ark was not qualified to take the position of patriarch, and no one knew what problems might arise in the Arasso family.
Moreover, the enemy was able to mobilize so many forces to attack together, which showed that the enemy's influence was quite large. It is also possible that the enemy has already infiltrated the Arasso family to a certain extent, so there are more possibilities this time.
The final conclusion was to send out multiple family guards to meet Yun. The guards were at level five, with only a few captains reaching the early stage of level six. They were not yet able to ride griffins and could only rush here on horseback. But everyone knew that it would take at least five days for the guards to meet up with Yun. If there were some delays on the way, seven or eight days would be normal. Facing a powerful enemy that could injure Aaron, could Yun last five days?
In fact, the implication of his words was that he was about to give up on Yun. Although Bona tried very hard, due to the rise and fall of his family and the strong opposition of others, Bona could only helplessly watch the departure of the guard members.
After Ark received the news, he didn't care about anything else and just rode on the griffin and came. That's why the Arathor family only sent a level 5 Ark.
When Fang Zhou heard that Hammer Fortress was under attack, he knew that even the Black Dragon Legion was involved. There was really nothing he could do, so he and his partner could only take a small path to see if they could avoid the attack with their familiarity with the road.
Just when Yun and Fang Zhou thought that the journey to the Flame Fortress would be relatively peaceful, Yun, who was resting in an abandoned house, felt something was wrong.
