Chapter 65: Arrival

Northrend, the land of snow and ice. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

It is like the North Pole of the earth, although it is not the whole of permafrost, but it is also the spine of the world, covered by ice and snow all year round.

Northrend was originally part of the continent of Kalimdor, but since the explosion of the Well of Eternity, its tectonic plates have shifted to the far north, separated from present-day Kalimdor and the eastern continent by an endless sea, and the climate has changed. As a result, most of the local organisms have been extinct in the past 10,000 years due to environmental changes, and only a few powerful arthropods have survived.

To this day, the arthropods of the Northrend continent have even multiplied into a family, known as Nilub.

They have built a large nest in the permafrost underneath and formed their own kingdom, with an underground palace called "Eldraine Nirub" as their capital.

As the largest indigenous population in Northrend, these spider monsters rule the entire tundra, overpowering all remaining creatures, including a handful of humans.

In addition, in the middle of Northrend, there is a huge empty area that even the spider demon does not want to enter.

The bones of thousands of giant dragons are piled up there, known as the Dragonbone Wilderness.

The dragons of Azeroth, whenever their lives are coming to an end, fly to the Dragonbone Wilderness of Northrend and sleep with their ancestors.

Malygos guides the Blue Dragons, who have guarded it for generations, and is another foreign force in Northrend.

Farther north in the Dragonbone Wilderness, to the west of the Storm Cliffs, there is another huge glacier called Icecrown Glacier.

The largest of them, called the Ice Crown Glacier, is also the destination of Ling Qi and his party this time!

Many years ago, Kilgardan threw the frost cage that imprisoned Nao Zu from the sky onto Icecrown Glacier, forming a huge ice tower, which was later named the Ice Crown, which is also the origin of the Ice Crown Glacier.

In that ice tower, there is the magic sword called Frostmourn, the frozen Lich King armor, and the Frost Throne, the Frozen Throne, which represents the Lich King.

Pick up a weapon, break through the ice, put on armor, and become the new Lich King!

It sounds as simple as that.

But in the World of Warcraft series of movies that Ling Qi knew, this was not the case.

Frostmourn is a rune sword created by Kil'Gardan under the guise of Naozu, and it is not easy to wield it due to its powerful power and the poison of darkness that tempts depravity.

Its first successor, the second Lich King chosen by fate, the human hero Arthas, all fell directly after picking it up.

And even Arthas, who was chosen by fate, still went through a spiritual trial and succeeded in becoming the Lich King after walking to the end step by step and wearing the "Witch King's Crown", which contains infinite power!

The twists and turns in the process are bizarre, and it can be described as frightening step by step.

Therefore, the power of the Lich King is not so simple to inherit.

And this power that Kil Gardan has created in some way or with the help of some has probably never been mastered, and the two successive and even the future third Lich King are merely users of power, not masters!

Neozu was the first Lich King, and in the narrow sense of the word, the Lich King refers to him, referring to this powerful soul that has been imprisoned after losing its body, and of course, it is a soul that has become powerful after being infused with dark power.

It's just that after Arthas was able to put on the Lich King's helmet, he counterattacked and devoured Naozu, and it is not difficult to guess that maybe the source of the Lich King's power is not Naozu's soul at all, but the powerful Lich King's helmet?

This is known only to Kilgardan!

What is the standard for the occupation of the Frozen Throne requested by the Juggernaut?

Will it defeat the Scourge legion established by Naozu in the early days and complete the geographical occupation, or will it break through the ice coffin and completely seize the power of the Lich King?

The requirements of the master are not clear, Ling Qi thinks about it, since he has done it, he must do it!

As for the troubles that may be encountered in the process, Ling Qi said that it is acceptable.

He didn't have the luck of Arthas, but he had a power that was beyond Arthas's reach, and the spiritual power of Nao Zu and the polluting effect of Frost's sorrow could not affect him at all.

As for breaking the ice coffin, it is not easy for the indigenous heroes and legends, the ancient legendary hero Illidan who is as strong as the elven race, to use the power of the magic artifact Eye of Sargeras. Ling Qi just felt a little troublesome, not that there was no way.

As long as Ling Qi is willing, he can do what others can only do by relying on all kinds of coincidences and calculations.

His strength may only be regarded as the weakest true god, and even Kil'Gardan may not be able to defeat him, but he has never been a man who has nothing but himself!

As for trouble, Ling Qi was never afraid, he only looked at whether the benefits were big enough!

The Lich King's powers?

Half a month later, perhaps just a few days in the eyes of everyone, Ling Qi's tattered flying boat finally boarded Northrend.

Unlike in the movies and even in the games of the Alien Plane, Northrend has no ready-made ports and cities, and is completely desolate.

At this time, Northrend was still a wasteland, and the continent was truly known, including the redivision and naming of the regions, only after the arrival of the human prince Arthas, and after he became the Lich Queen in the more distant future, he provoked a crusade that made the land prosperous little by little.

War can sometimes be a good catalyst.

The landing of the group did not cause any turmoil, whether it was the underground spider demons, or the rising Scourge Legion, or even the blue dragons of the Dragon Bone Wasteland, they did not notice this group of alien humans.

But who knows, among this group of outsiders, there is a madman who has already regarded Northrend as his back garden.

As for the original future owner of Northrend, who cares about him!

Now, the young prince is probably still fighting some poor orcs and building up his feats, and the little lotus is showing his sharp corners!

Not to mention that Ling Qi led his little friends to start the official attack on Northrend, the distant Sunseeker Royal Court, Prince Kael'thas who had just returned from the magic kingdom of Dalaran, looked at the gray-robed warlock in front of him with an unswerving face.

"Master, you mean... Let me steal the Lich King's power to revive our country?"

Kael'thas, who was dressed in a red robe like a groom, was definitely not polite when he said this, and implicitly questioned.

The prince of the High Elves, although he is more than a thousand years old and an adult among the elves, is definitely not a qualified politician, but more like a powerful professional.

As a rare plastic energy mage among the High Elves, Kael'thas never doubted his strength, he believes that as long as he is given a certain amount of time to grow, it will not be a problem to revive the glory of the High Elves, and even now, he is one of the Councilors of Kenrito, and he is a well-deserved great* mage and legendary mage!

The Grey-robed wizard has the same old countenance as Gandalf, but his old age bears the signs of withering, giving the impression of dying rather than healthy.

He looked around and caught a glimpse of the burning gaze of the High Elves' characteristic spellbreaker guards, and also felt the threat from the giant golem, but he calmly seemed to be facing a herd of cattle and sheep, and he did not panic at all.

"Of course, my Highness. ”

"You may not covet this power, but you have to admit that if it is in the hands of your enemies, then it will not be what you like. ”

"Actually, I could have gone directly to His Excellency the Regent to discuss this matter, and I believe he would be more interested in it. ”

"However, I always believe that you are the rightful heir of the High Elves, and that inheriting or sealing the power of the Lich King requires a certain foundation of strength. In this regard, there is no doubt that you, Your Highness, are the most suitable person. ”

"Besides, doesn't Your Highness really think that you need this power?"

The gray-robed warlock told the truth, and finally asked again.

His words were not convincing, and they were a little annoying.

However, he seems to have an inexplicable charm on his body, which has absolutely nothing to do with appearance, but it is easy to convince others, and this power is directed at people's hearts.

Cathersas paced in place, looking hesitant.

He had no interest in that evil force, but if it still fell into the hands of others, it would never work.

And the realm of arcane magic is vast, and every time you think it's thorough, you'll find that it's not.

The study of magic lies in the bypass of touch, and no mage is purely monophyric, like Kael'thas who is also an expert in unfamiliar change-based magic.

If the Lich King's power is as exaggerated as this mysterious man says, if he can study it, he will definitely make great progress in himself!

Kael'thas wasn't a man who was very attached to power, but he needed it, and he carried too many responsibilities.

His country needs him to be strong, his people need him to be strong, and in order to improve his position in Kenrito, it will also require him to become stronger.

Besides, Kael'thas is not a fool, on the contrary, he is very smart.

The Scourge Legion was not built in a day or two, even if it was far overseas, it was not without clues on the mainland, but it was not taken seriously until it broke out completely. Among them, the Kenrito master Kel'thugad, who has not yet revealed his true face, is absolutely indispensable.

But since someone pointed out the future crisis in advance, there is still a lot of evidence, where will Kael'thas not be enlightened!

"Master, I have to say that if it weren't for the sage's affirmation that you have nothing to do with the Burning Legion, I would almost suspect that you are the embodiment of Kil'Gardan. ”

The Fraudster Kilgardan, who clearly has the power to crush legends, prefers to rely on intrigue to win, and can deceive people's minds, and in the eyes of polymath, even more terrible than Akmund, another arm of Sargeras.

In fact, Kil'Gardan doesn't have the power to manipulate people's hearts, and it is the Dreadlord clan who possesses this power, and they are also the most powerful lackeys under Kil'Gardan's command.

The pawn that Kil Gardan seduced Arthas to fall is the Dreadlord Melganis, who is not too strong, only close to the legendary combat power, but his grasp of people's hearts is comparable to that of a demigod-level demon.

The gray-robed warlock only smiled at Kael'thas for his outspoken jealousy. He never won the trust of others by trust, but only changed people's hearts by his own strength.

For the strong man whose mind is difficult to interfere with, he also believes that as long as he is strong and stronger enough, there are always more people who are willing to be friends with him than those who are willing to be enemies with him, and Kael'thas is a good example!

In a sense, the elven prince is not wrong, he is a devil who treats people as toys, like the fraudster Kilgardan of the Burning Legion!
