Chapter 967 Dark Duke

Without any explanation, two strong arms picked up the two queens and plunged into the portal.

The next moment, hundreds of miles away, one could clearly see the bright and bright light emitting from the canopy of the once huge and lush World Tree. After a violent shock, the entire top of the mountain exploded. Then came the terrifying shock wave and dazzling fire, which swept across the entire Mount Hyjal like a world-destroying wave.

All the breath of life was swept away by the wave of destruction at this moment.

The night elves, who had already taken refuge, watched blankly as their home, which they had lived in for nearly ten thousand years, was destroyed by this shocking explosion.

"Woo! Woo!" Countless elves knelt down to pray and howl!

At the same moment, in the mage tower in Theramore Port.

There were also loud cries.

"Damn it! I asked you to see if you could do anything, I didn't ask you to sacrifice yourself!" Jaina knelt in front of the bed, tears streaming down her face.

Sylvanas was also kneeling, clasping the palms of the black human body on the bed with both hands, pursed her lips hard, and said nothing, while her body kept shaking.

The grief of both queens was palpable.

In order to defeat Archimonde and his main force of the Burning Legion, the Alliance paid a heavy price for this.

At this moment, in Theramore Port, there are neatly laid corpses on almost every piece of green grass. The ones sleeping here are all the familiar faces of the living people standing nearby.

Although everyone had written a suicide note before coming and was ready to accept the sacrifice, this time the battle also ended in victory, proving that all their previous efforts were absolutely meaningful... But compared with such a victory, they They would rather die fighting on Mount Hyjal with their companions, rather than taste the suffocating despair coming from the mage tower——

In order to kill Archimonde, the commander of the Burning Legion, their most respected alliance hero Duke Marcus not only killed this super demon, but also suffered the most terrifying backlash.

An unknown and terrifying death curse filled his entire body with the most evil dark power.

After the orcs invaded, they had not enjoyed many years of peace before the Burning Legion came. Everyone says that the test for Azeroth is yet to come.

If we lose a strong leader like Duke at this time, no one knows what will happen next.

Will the alliance dissolve?

Will the world be on the verge of destruction next?

All soldiers feel the feeling of being full of fear, worry and helplessness about the future after victory.

It was as if they, with their desire for military glory and hope in life, were seriously injured and dying as soon as they entered the battlefield, and immediately had to face the cruel reality of having their ideals shattered.

It was a terrible feeling that all prospects were lost.

On the mage tower, Turalyon was holding [Quel'Zalam] tightly, and the tears on his face were clear evidence of this.

Similarly, Mograine, who was holding the [Ashbringer] on the other side of the window, had a similar expression.

As old comrades who have worked with Duke for more than ten years, they know better than anyone else Duke's role in promoting the unity and progress of the entire alliance. Not to mention, Duke has a close relationship with all three queens.

In the current alliance, apart from Magni, no one of the old kings from the previous generation is left.

In this political arena where political capital and performance are the most important, there is simply no one who can replace Duke, even temporarily.

Once they lose Duke here, it will definitely be a heavy blow to the alliance in all aspects of politics, economy, and military.

It might be better if Duke died in battle, but what is most scary is that Duke has fallen like the former Prince of Alsace. That is the nightmare for the Alliance and even the entire world of Azeroth.

A leader who knows the Alliance best, and even the Horde best, and possesses wisdom far superior to others, has degenerated into the sharpest minion of the Burning Legion... Just thinking about it makes Turalyon and the others shudder. .

Looking at Duke, who was surrounded by the dark aura and his body was twitching, Jaina's tear-stained face looked as if she had been stabbed in pain.

She turned her head and asked Benedictus, Liadrin and all the priests: "Can't you do something to find a way to drive away the dark power from Duke's body?"

No cleric dared to respond to the wrath of the Queen of Kul Tiras immediately.

At this time, Queen Xi pressed the back of Jaina's hand with one hand: "That's enough! Didn't they all say it before? It's useless for you to blame them. Duke's magic circuit is too fragile. This is what Duke uses The result of being suddenly invaded by dark forces when he was running out of magic power. Forcibly injecting external holy light will only cause every inch of Duke's magic circuits to collapse and kill him directly."

"Could it be...could it be..." Jaina almost lost control of her emotions: "Are we just going to watch Duke die like this!?"

She was answered only by silence.

At this time, Vanessa suddenly knocked on the door, her face also stained with tears: "Several representatives of the tribe are outside Theramore. They hope to visit Master Marcus."

Jaina was completely out of control: "What are those cruel orcs doing here at this time? Do you want to see if Duke is dead, and then take the opportunity to defeat the Alliance?"

Mograine gently pressed Jaina's shoulder armor and shook his head: "My old brother Tirion said, 'I have seen the filthiest human beings and the greatest orcs I have ever seen.' So, glory is actually No borders.”

Jaina fell silent.

Turalyon nodded to Vanessa: "Let them come up."

Not long after, Thrall, Grom, Vol'jin, Kane and other tribal bosses came up. Kane is so big that he can only stay under the mage tower. The other three came up, holding bunches of flowers.

Although the flowers didn't match the orc's burly and ferocious appearance, everyone still felt a bit of warmth.

Thrall directly started with the incomparable standard human common language: "I know that we may not be welcome. But our coming this time has nothing to do with our position. It is purely to express our respect for a great hero. Perhaps, one day, the Alliance and The tribes will go to war again, but even so, I hope to see a healthy and strong Duke Marcus on the battlefield, instead of hiding in a dark corner and celebrating the departure of a powerful enemy."

Thrall was so upright that several paladins silently bowed slightly to Thrall to show their respect.

Sylvanas and Jaina stood up together and saluted Thrall. Finally, Queen Xi spoke: "Thank you for your visit. This time the alliance, the tribe and the night elves cooperated. On the alliance's side, It was Duke who promoted it. We also hope to have an end to the beginning. Before there is a new situation, we hope to maintain peace with the tribe."

Yo, Duke turned black, did any readers think of anything?
