While the siege of Astranaar reached its climax, seventy miles north of Astranaar, in the forest, an elite Centaur troop was quietly lying in ambush.
The leader was Shadow of War (Death Knight), a capable lieutenant under Emperor Shenwu.
He led five hundred Khan personal guards and five hundred Centaur Eagle Eyes, a total of a thousand elite troops, silently lurking in the forest to carry out a special mission.
Aside from Shadow of War, Gul'dan was also leading his few hundred Orcs, lying in ambush there.
They had only one mission, to ambush the Demigod Cenarius. Cenarius, as a Demigod, possessed boundless Mana. Once he joined forces with the Night Elves, he would certainly display terrifying power. They had to ensure that this powerful Demigod would not enter the battlefield and change the course of events.
"Master, do you really want to risk your life for Emperor Shenwu?" Garona, while sharpening her twin blades, asked with some incomprehension.
