Chapter 149 The Dilemma of Night Town
Althea's face was full of sadness and worry, which was an expression that couldn't be concealed and expressed naturally.

In fact, the entire Night Town was lifeless.

Residents living here, everyone's face is not so good-looking, many people are expressionless, and many people are insensitive. This once brilliant and lively town now has no laughter at all.

In a few years, Nightlight Town lost at least half of its population.

In the past, the prosperity here was no less than that of Shining Gold Town, and the population once exceeded the 4000 mark.But now, the entire town has less than 500 people, most of them are humans, and there are also more than [-] people of alien races, that is, elves, half-elves, and dwarves.

"Dark Town is full of dangers. Werewolves, undead and ogres, like three mountains, are pressing on the people of Night Town. We are overwhelmed. Terror, plague, danger, pain and torture, drive away Many townspeople left behind were either brave warriors, or old people, women, and children who couldn’t get out.” Althea led Xiao En and the others to the council hall.

On the way, a night watchman soldier ran over, with a sad face, and reported something to Althea.

"What happened?" Sean asked.

He saw Althea's face was very bad.

"Somebody's gone missing again, two kids. It's not the first time the townspeople were angry at first, then helpless, and now they're numb. We can't stop this, damn ogres, damn werewolves, damn Undead!" Althea gritted her teeth.

Bringing Sean and the others to the council hall, Althea sent someone to report to the mayor, Duke Ello Ebonlocke, and said apologetically, "I have to deal with the missing child. Although I know I can't find it , but I have to try... What if? That is two lives, two young children! Please wait a moment, my father will summon you soon."

Althea left after saying this.

Sean knew that Althea was in charge of leading the night watchman force, and she had to make up her mind about all security matters here, and she was actually very busy.

Sean and the others didn't wait too long, and they were soon invited in.

Walking into the council hall, Sean saw a man who was nearly 50 years old, dressed in casual clothes, standing in front of the podium, with a gentle face, without the grandeur and arrogance of a duke and nobleman.

He is a gentle and kind old man, and a firm and brave priest.

He was the one who established the night watchman force to protect the town of night.But now, he obviously felt powerless.On the one hand, he is getting old, and on the other hand, there is no new blood in the night watchman army. The departure of every soldier is an irreparable loss, and there are more and more enemies.

He is powerless about all this.

"Welcome, messengers from Stormwind City. I'm Elro Ebonlocke, Lord of Nightshade Town." Duke Ebonlocke introduced himself.

"Hello, I am Sean, the mayor of Gold Coast Town. This is His Majesty's friend and guard Valeira. These two are my followers Olivia and Vanessa. This is Anduin Prince." Sean introduced.

"Anduin? Little Anduin, you've grown up so much, I'm old and blind, and I didn't recognize you. Why did His Majesty let you come to this sad forest? Did His Majesty decide to send troops to help us? "The Duke of Ebonlocke stroked Anduin's little head, kindly, and a little excited.

Anduin raised his head, and a childish voice sounded: "Duke Ebonlocke, I'm sorry, Stormwind City did not send troops. The ancient seal has been loosened, and an evil force is awakening. Father needs the help of you and the Night Watchmen. We ...is here to ask for help."

A look of disappointment appeared on Duke Ebonlocke's face, and he shook his head and said, "Your Majesty the king...is he going to abandon Nightshade Town, Duskwood Forest? An ancient seal? Evil power? Hehe. We can't even protect Nightshade Town, How can you still have the ability to help Stormwind City? You are powerless. Little Anduin, stay here for one night and leave, the undead are rampant here, it is not safe... two children just disappeared."

Duke Ebonlocke waved his hand and sighed, "Two good boys."

Anduin wanted to say something, but Xiao En shook his head at him, and then several people left the council hall.

Nightshade used to be a large town with several inns.But now, no outsiders come to Yese Town at all, and only one hotel is still open in the huge Yese Town.

Blood Raven Hotel.

The inn is run by a dwarf named "Aurina Goldtooth".The Golden Tooth family is good at wine making, and Orina himself is an excellent wine maker.

There were quite a few people in the inn, most of them townspeople who spent money to get drunk.Anyway, no matter how much savings you have, you can't spend it. It's better to be drunk and dream.There are also aliens, those are daring adventurers, they each have their own purpose, there are dwarves, there are elves, there are half-elves, and there are humans.

Accompanied by a night watchman, Sean and the others checked into the Blood Raven Inn.

In Sean's room, five people gathered together to discuss countermeasures.

Valeira said: "The Duke of Ebonlocke will obviously not send troops, even if it is Varian's order, he will not obey. It is meaningless for us to wait here. I think we will leave early tomorrow morning."

Anduin said: "But, but father needs the help of the night watchman!"

Valeira shook her head and said: "We originally thought that the Night Watchmen were a powerful force. But now it seems that the Night Watchmen cannot protect themselves. The environment here is too harsh. If the Night Watchmen must be transferred, the night The town is finished. Moreover, the Alliance and the Horde joined forces to fight against the Ahn'Qiraj Empire, and there is no shortage of such a force."

Xiao En shook his head and said: "No, the Night Watchmen have always been strong, but the enemies they face are too many and too strong. King Va needs every power that can be assembled, and every power may affect the situation of the battle. We It has to be fought hard.”

Valeira frowned and said, "But Duke Ebonlocke will never obey."

Sean thought for a while, then nodded and said: "The Duke of Ebonlocke will not obey his orders for the time being, but that is because he needs the Night Watchmen to defend Nightshade Town. If we can solve the threat facing Nightshade Town, then Ebonlocke will The Duke will certainly obey."

Valeira denied: "The Twilight Forest is full of undead, ogres, and werewolves. How can we solve these? Is it possible to send troops to encircle and suppress them first? Stormwind City does not have so many troops to dispatch. And no matter how many troops , and it is difficult to solve the predicament here.”

Sean rubbed his temples, and said with certainty: "You are right, Valeira. But I want to say, maybe I have a way. Valeera, you are an excellent stalker, I want you to help me Find someone, a necromancer who has been hiding in the Twilight Forest for many years. As long as you find him, many things will be much easier, at least the problem of the undead... will be solved."
