Chapter 115 I, Archimonde, Are Back
For the time being, ignore the hapless and tragic Dreadlord who was burned to ashes in the square of the Flame King's Palace. Now, let's go back and look at the offensive and defensive battle between human mages and high elves in Dalaran.
The situation in front of me is different from the situation at the beginning, when humans and high elves stayed safely in the city, waiting for the undead natural disaster troops to enter the magic protective barrier to die.
Now, the offensive and defensive situation of the two sides was reversed instantly after Kel'Thuzad tricked Arthas into raiding the treasure house of Dalaran and successfully obtained the Book of Medivh. Right now, it turned out that the coalition forces of humans and high elves, regardless of casualties, risked their lives out of the city many times to raid the defensive formation of the undead natural disasters.
In the beginning, the human and high elf coalition forces held the city firmly, and let the undead army send four waves of troops in to die, not to mention how comfortable it was. And now, the coalition forces also forcibly sent the team of four raids out to give the undead a movie. This really echoed the old saying: If you come out to mess around, you will have to pay it back sooner or later...
"Antonidas... Your Excellency the Archmage! We really can't fight like this anymore! Without the protection of the magic barrier, without the magic assistance from the mage towers in the city of Dalaran, with our strength, we want to It is completely impossible to break through the defensive barrier formed by the undead army outside!"
When the archmage was about to cast another spell and forcibly opened the portal to send a group of raiding troops to interrupt Kel'Thuzad's summoning ceremony, the high elf prince Kael'thas finally couldn't help it. He stepped forward and pressed Antonida. A wand ready to cast magic.
"Your Majesty the Archmage! Whether it's your Dalaran mage troops or our Quel'Thalas reinforcements, we've lost more than half of them now! We can't go on like this... valuable We are not afraid of sacrifice, but in the current situation, we simply let them go out to die!"
Although Kael'thas himself knew that they had better use the fastest speed to stop Kel'Thuzad's summoning ceremony, the sooner the better!
But now, look outside, the undead Scourge have made it clear that they want to guard against Dalaran outside. Now in Dalaran, there are only about 20,000 troops left in the coalition of elves and humans, and a considerable part of them are wounded. Under such circumstances, what do they use to break through the nearly 30 troops outside The defensive formation of the army of more than ten thousand undead?
In the current situation, don't say anything and want to break through the opponent's defense. If the undead wake up and suddenly attack Dalaran with carbine, maybe they will break through it at once?
Just now they have also organized four rounds of raid troops, trying to break through the opponent's defense line... However, apart from giving the opponent more than 10,000 new undead for nothing, they have not achieved any effect at all. Not only did they fail to break through the enemy's defenses, they even failed to touch the side of the Kel'Thuzad summoning ceremony site!
At this point, Antonidas still wants to use his good group teleportation spell to directly teleport the troops to the enemy's summoning field, trying to make the last desperate struggle. Prince Kael'thas, who can't stand it anymore, He had no choice but to stop the aging archmage in front of him.
"I also know...it may be useless to do this, but...Kyle, you have to understand that we have no choice now!"
Sighing, Antonidas broke away from Kael'thas' hand, why didn't he know that what he did now was futile? But if he didn't do this, what could he do? Who knows what kind of existence Kel'Thuzad will summon in a while? While there is still a slight chance, he will always try again.
"Your Excellency the Archmage, we really can't continue fighting like this. If we waste precious troops like this, we can think about how to retreat now. Otherwise, we will almost lose our troops to defend Dalaran later!"
Although I am very reluctant to say the word retreat,
But Kael'thas still suggested to Antonidas that the strength of his side had already begun to be stretched after this war, and it was almost time to organize a retreat.
"Let me try again, Kyle, this time I will personally lead the team, Dalaran... I will leave it to you! If... If I don't come back, you can open the portal and let the people of Dalaran Let the citizens evacuate first, as much as you can run..."
Antonidas has already made up his mind, he must not just watch Kel'Thuzad successfully summon some evil great demon like this! He had a vague premonition that once Kel'Thuzad succeeded, it would definitely be a catastrophe!
Therefore, he was going to risk his life and try again. This time, he would personally bring the last elite and teleport it to the side of the opponent's summoning ceremony site, and then directly raid the Lich to interrupt his ceremony! If possible, it would be best to get back that important Book of Medivh!
"Your Mightiness……"
Kael'thas looked sad for a while, he thought for a while, before he could say anything, a drastic change happened...
In an instant, it seemed that time had frozen... After a great earthquake that shook the mountains, in the distance, in the summoning ceremony site in the hinterland of the undead camp, a tall and hazy figure gradually appeared... and then What came out was a certain overwhelming bloodthirsty aura, a chaotic existence that destroyed everything, and it was a pure and extremely evil. It seems that the opponent's body is filled with endless and surging corrupt energy. Around the huge figure, the air of withering begins to spread, and the earth also begins to rot due to pollution...
"Alas, we still haven't been able to stop him..."
Antonidas sighed, retracted the raised staff, and gave up the group teleportation spell he was about to cast.
Now, Kel'Thuzad's plot has succeeded, and he successfully summoned the evil archdemon! Looking at the huge figure in the distance, the coercion caused by that kind of absolute power made the archmage almost unable to resist... That villain Kel'Thuzad, what kind of existence did he summon? ?
"Anthony! What shall we do now?"
Kael'thas didn't even care about the etiquette and honorifics. He was panting heavily, and he was holding on to the guardrail tightly with both hands, so he could try his best to control his body, suppress the magic power in his body, and try not to let his The body trembled.
In front, in the distance within sight, in the camp of the undead, that pure, evil and powerful figure that appeared was the first time that Kael'thas had seen in his long life of thousands of years. Yes, an unprecedented powerful existence!
"Heh! What else can we do now? Open all the portals, let's organize a big retreat..."
Frustrated, Antonidas closed his eyes and sighed deeply. The old wrinkles on his face seemed to have become more... Dalaran, after all, he still couldn't hold on...
...
When that huge figure began to solidify gradually, and when it finally succeeded in coming to the world of Azeroth again in its full form, a deep and loud voice cut through the hustle and bustle of the entire Dalaran battlefield area, causing the His voice was clearly heard by the undead in Dalaran and the surrounding Scourge.
"Tremble, mortals, despair! The end has come to your world! And I, Archimonde, I am finally back!"
Looking at the opponent's tall body and the surging, boundless power, Alsace used his greatest efforts to barely suppress the boundless fear in his heart. He strangled the frightened death horse hard, He clamped the horse's belly hard, and let it trot forward a few steps to the side of the legendary Lich Kel'Thuzad. Since his invincible was burned in Quel'Thalas, he has never been able to find it again. A horse that satisfies him.
While watching the huge demon lord, Arthas carefully rode his horse to the side of Kel'Thuzad, a dreadlord, the coward named Tichondrius, also teleported here at the right time. When the dreaded demon king jumped out of the portal, the other party quickly flattered him, quickly ran to Archimonde, and bowed deeply.
This made Arthas snort coldly in disdain, the figure of the dreadlord has never been seen from the beginning to the end of the battle in Dalaran! But now, the battle had just ended, and after Archimonde was summoned, he came on time.
The other party's shameless approach made Alsace stop the urge to go forward and salute Archimonde. The death knight didn't bother to do the same thing with this despicable bat.
"Great Lord Archimonde, you have finally arrived, and as your humble servant, I have already prepared everything."
Tichondrius prostrated obsequiously on the ground, compared to Archimonde's tall body like a dragon, he was like a thin toad lying under the giant's feet.
"You have done well, Tichondrius, I am very satisfied."
Archimonde replied casually, he just nodded perfunctorily to the demon who was inferior to him, reluctantly acknowledging the other party's efforts to successfully summon him to the world of Azeroth.
"Since the Lich King has no use value for me, then, from now on, you Dreadlords will command the Scourge."
At the same time as he finished speaking, Archimonde glanced disdainfully at the death knight riding a horse in the distance.
He, Archimonde, remembered it very clearly. From the moment he came, that little bug hadn't shown any humility to him. He was just a bug, so how dare he be so arrogant to himself? hum! If he still needed the other party, he would have stretched out his hand and crushed the other party to death, but now, confiscating his military power is just the beginning!
Hearing what the other party said, Alsace couldn't believe his ears! The shock and rage in his heart could hardly be stopped! Both myself and Kel'Thuzad worked so hard that they even almost died before they summoned this bastard.
And now, they got such a reward? As soon as he came out, he deprived himself of the command of the Scourge?
how so? Could it be that all he did was to get this sentence: The Lich King is useless? What a joke! Why did it become like this? Well, if it is true as the other party said, even the Lich King is worthless now, then what about yourself? What does this mean to me?
Kel'Thuzad has no eyes now, and there are only two pale soul flames in his eye sockets. He can't give Alsace any hints in his eyes, let alone dare to speak rashly at this time, so he can only stretch out His skeletal hand lightly pressed the armguard of Arthas' hand that was holding the rein tightly.
"Hmph! Soon, I will order the invasion of the world of Azeroth. But first, I will make an example of these insignificant mages...I will destroy their city, turn it into dust of history, let Everyone understands what will happen to those who hinder the arrival of me, Archimonde!"
After the demon lord Archimonde finished speaking, he turned around and walked in the direction of Dalaran with big strides. His body was upright, majestic and arrogant, and his steps were firm and decisive.
Dusk came quietly, and the hideous armor on his body became shiny in the twilight of the setting sun, and beside him, Tichondrius, who had been bowing his head all the time, also looked like a clown and started to fart. He followed up with big strides.
"You, Kel'Thuzad! Are you sure this isn't a joke? We've worked so hard to get this reward? So what's going on with the two of us now? Two clowns?"
As soon as that Archimonde walked away, Arthas raged towards Kel'Thuzad. If he knew it would end like this, he, Alsace, would never steal the Book of Medivh, nor would he Let Kel'Thuzad summon that mean, unkind, evil bastard! Well, perhaps it is not appropriate for the death knight to describe Archimonde as evil. After all, in a strict sense, they can all be regarded as the same kind...
"Please be patient, Arthas. His lord the Lich King has also foreseen this situation. In his grand blueprint, you will have more important things to do. The Lich King still needs you very much." Kel'Thuzad replied in its hoarse voice.
But after Alsace finished listening, he suddenly turned to the necromancer, his nostrils flared with anger, but he still held back the anger in his heart. Now, he began to understand a little bit that he was nothing more than a poor pawn to Archimonde or the Lich King!
However, Alsace will never compromise!
From now on, anyone—whether it's those demons or the Lich King—if they think that he, Arthas, is just a disposable tool, then they are wrong, and he, Arthas, will definitely Make them pay!
At this point today, Alsace has done too much—and he has lost too much. At the same time, he has also given up too much of himself. He must not be treated like a used waste item by others Throw it away in disgust!
How could all this he had done be in vain? All this will never be in vain! He secretly swears in his heart! never!
At this moment, the death knight Arthas planted the seeds of hatred to rebel against the Lich King and the rule of demons in his heart! He swears that he, Alsace, will never be a pawn at the mercy of others! Never again!
In the distance, when Alsace's thoughts were changing rapidly, Archimonde was finally ready to do it...
"Hehehe... Mortals, you still want to escape under my nose? You will find that this is completely futile!"
The ground trembled, and the death steed under his crotch began to twiddle anxiously again, raising his front hooves, as if he wanted to touch the ground as little as possible. At the same time, Alsace immediately turned his head to look at Dalaran, the city of mages. .
In the magic city, those high towers are the most beautiful at this time of day. They shine brightly and magnificently in the deepening twilight, exuding charming magic light.
But just as he was looking at this beautiful scene, there was a deep cracking sound. The spire of the tallest and most beautiful tower in the city suddenly collapsed, slowly and inevitably rolling down, and the whole tower seemed to be crushed by an invisible giant's hand.
And the rest of the city quickly collapsed and turned into ashes. The sound of destruction echoed in Alsace's ears, shocking him. From the beginning to the end, he never dared to look away...
All of this reminded him of the scene in Silvermoon City... At that time, he was also easily destroyed by the enemy with similar means... He still remembered that endless light that destroyed everything at that time...
He, Alsace, still remembered how similar the scene he saw was to the scene in front of him when he struggled to get up from the beach in Silvermoon City?
Also in the blink of an eye, a beautiful and majestic city disappeared in an instant, and it was gone if it was gone... The location of Dalaran in the distance, like Silvermoon City back then, was also razed to the ground in the blink of an eye ...
Alsace gritted his teeth secretly, holding the reins of the war horse even tighter with both hands! At this moment, Arthas desperately wants to gain power, and Frostmourne is far from enough. He needs more, stronger power, power that can control his own destiny, power that can destroy everything...
...
"Santis..., do you feel it too? That power is..."
In the distance, in a secret night elf camp in a mountainous area north of Tirisfal Glades, the Archdruid Malfurion Stormrage and Sentinel General Shandris Feathermoon, who were still secretly gathering information, watched in shock at the same time. Looking in the direction of the south, they all felt the terrifying aura that suddenly appeared in the south. Here, someone actually summoned... the great demon of the Burning Legion?
"Yes, Your Excellency the Archdruid! I still remember this feeling clearly... They appeared just 10,000 years ago! I still remember..."
Shandris Yuyue bit her lips tightly, of course she knew what the oppressive feeling coming from the south was, it was the breath of the great devil! It's just that she doesn't know who it is? Sargeras? Or... Archimonde? But no matter which one, she knew that the world of Azeroth would definitely be in big trouble!
"Sandris... let your sisters come back, there is no need to continue the investigation, we need to go back as soon as possible, so that the clansmen can prepare early. I'm afraid..., alas... Another big battle like in ancient times is about to come It's coming..."
The archdruid Malfurion looked towards the south with deep eyes. Before he could think of a way to heal this polluted land, another more evil and terrifying existence came at this time.
"Obey! I'll do it right now, and we can set sail before night at the latest!"
Realizing the seriousness of the problem, Shandris Yuyue hurriedly saluted and left in a hurry. She needed to use the owl to call back the sisters of the sentinel troops who had dispersed, and then board the ship in the shortest possible time Returning, they must use the fastest speed to go back to Kalimdor, and the sooner the better!
