Chapter 39: The Death of the Sunseeker Dynasty (I)

At the same time, the rest of the city was in a better position than the chaos on the walls that had been intensively attacked, and the defenders had to face only the crypt demons approaching under the cover of ordinary meat grinders, and the abomination of marching in neat formations like walls!

Under the cover of abomination, the crypt demons approached the city wall more comfortably, and they began to spit after reaching the maximum range, and those little poisonous insects were very "smart" to bypass their own tall abomination and attack the city wall, which made the defenders busy for a while, but the concerted efforts of the Magister Legion and the guards in a relatively safe environment still suppressed the corrupt situation on the scene relatively steadily.

It's just that they can't be busy right away, just to deal with these rough-skinned abominations and elusive little poisonous insects, those who usually only pamper the magisters are already too busy, and they can even only casually blast a few range spells on the low-level undead who are attached to the ant-attached siege city, and they have to shift the target to those more threatening abominations.

The closer you get to the walls, the greater the threat of Abomination to the defenders! Not only can they shield the Crypt Demons from harassing or even killing the defenders, but they can also quickly become a weapon for the ghouls to climb and jump onto the city!

Although Silvermoon City is gorgeous and sturdy, its walls are only more than 7 meters high, and after the nearly 4-meter-tall Abomination approaches, the ghouls' terrifying jumping power is displayed, and they climb with their four-legged claws, although they can't hold out for long, but with the Abomination as a springboard, they can exert a bounce power that the defenders didn't expect. As the first ghoul jumped onto the city and was quickly strangled, more and more ghouls began to pour in, as if to announce that the towering walls could not stop the Scourge Legion.

And after the infinite abomination successfully reached the foot of the city wall, their great force was enough to shake the defenses of any city wall! With their constant thrashing and slashing, the walls of Silvermoon City began to shake violently, making the defenders on the city wall unsteady, let alone maintaining a queue or casting spells with precision...... On the contrary, it is the four-legged ghouls that make all the defenders feel imminent! they use their claws to stabilize themselves and can also make some short movements, so they can still move to their targets in this vibration, killing those who are temporarily incapacitated by shaking!

At this time, the rangers who often fight in special terrain are very useful, they still kill these low-level ghouls as quickly as they walk on the ground, but unfortunately, after several defeats in battle, their numbers are now numbered......

The undead unit, which was originally a very low-level unit, has become a mass killer in this abnormal situation, which is simply a massacre......

The faces of the High Elves who watched the battle in the Tower of Sunrage were very unsightly, because the only formed troops left in the kingdom were the Guardian Breakers of the Sunseeker King's family, and now the only person who could command and mobilize them was Sun King Anasteria. Even those great nobles have transferred their private soldiers to the city at this time of crisis, after all, if Silvermoon City is broken, they will not have any good fruit to eat, and not everyone wants to pursue any lich and eternal life. Although at first, those big nobles still had the idea that their private soldiers could earn more combat exploits, but as time went by and the situation of the war took a turn for the worse, they also really wanted to tide over the difficulties with everyone.

Regret was rife, but now was not the time to figure out how to regain face in front of the humans they had always looked down upon, and the Sun King quickly made a new deployment.

"Belowell, Solana, go and organize the evacuation of civilians, we have to retreat to Queldanus Island. ”

"Your Majesty?"

"Don't worry, I'm just taking on the responsibilities of a king, and I guess this human hero can't wait to deal with those evil scum, right?"

After being named, Edlan stood up, patted the armor he had put on, and said, "The Lordaeron Knights are willing to fight for the cause of light with the 15 paladins below me!"

......

Skyfire!

A veritable catastrophe from the sky!

The blue sky changed color in an instant, orange and fiery red became the main colors, and even the plague poison clouds that hung over the army of the undead became dim, because no matter what color they were, at this moment, they were all ruled by the fiery clouds that suddenly appeared in the sky like the setting sun and spread all over the sky.

But unlike the Burning Cloud, it has an explosive beauty, full of visual aggression, a vast area of magic that Anastria and his high-ranking councilors have teamed up to perform, and it is in a sense explosive, aggressive, and dangerous.

In particular, after the amplification spell of the Paladin and the Priest of Adelan's level increased the abilities of these old fellows who had been dealing with magic all their lives, and after teleporting from the group in the Tower of the Sunrage to the tower on the edge of the city wall, the Sun King and the other nineteen senior members of the Silver Moon Council began to chant this spell that Edran couldn't even name.

Obviously, however, Adlan could tell that it was Salas, not a lingua franca.

And Adelan can only stand stupidly like the law breaker and other guards next to him, acting as a guard to deal with the danger that may come at any time, but this distance, according to the range shown by the giant meat grinder before, is difficult to threaten this tower. Therefore, these twenty archmages completed the spell of heavenly fire that hundreds of human mages and high elf magisters jointly performed back then without any interference.

It was the spell that buried the armies of Amani trolls, thus establishing the victory of the alliance between humans and the High Elves.

Now, as the magic technology continues to improve, the twenty archmages who stand at the top of the High Elf Magus have stepped forward and used the same methods when their country and their capital are most dangerous.

The appearance of Anastria Sunchaser and the members of the Silver Moon Council who chose to unite with the outside world when the nation was in danger was stunning and earth-shattering.

The waves of fire that covered the sky and the sun wandered in the sky, like the fire of divine punishment that the gods of the city of clouds had sent down for their irreverent offense to mortals! The waves of fire turned the sky into a sea of fire, in which they freely "turned the clouds and rained" and rained down clusters of flames and sparks on those who dared to offend the "gods" on the ground as they pleased!

The dense sparks were airborne, and the rolling heat wave scorched, so that not only the sky, but also the land that had been polluted by the army of the undead began to burn! And the scope of this burning is constantly expanding, expanding, and expanding, as if it is going to burn the entire army of the undead! This is like a merciless fire that can devour everything, and this is the veritable "end of the world" scene.

Edlan on the tower was far from the center of the "bombardment", but even in this place, he seemed to be able to feel the huge heat generated by the heavenly fires falling from the sky and rubbing the air, and he could also feel the incoming heat wave under the flames of the sky and the ground. But this kind of visual and sensory deception does not make people really feel that they are being steamed by the scorching environment, after all, if there is a problem in their own physical senses, now as long as they touch their cheeks with their hands without sweating, they will know that they are absolutely shocked by that kind of impact picture just now, which has led to a temporary error in judgment.

The twenty powerful High Elf Magus are still guiding and maintaining this super-large magic, and on the ground, those undead who are constantly being "punished" by the heavenly fire are quickly burned through, burned to the ground, and burned to ashes under such flames......

Arthas himself was also shrouded in the scope of this blow, and it can be said that this round of magical blows covered the first half of the middle army of the undead from the edge outside the walls of Silvermoon City, but unfortunately the five giant meat grinders were not included, they were too far away.

But this Heavenly Fire Magic, which is nearly 5,000 meters in diameter, has almost incinerated the entire front line of the undead and the undead units that are attacking the city with ants! Even the army of gargoyles in the air has been affected, or they are the first "victims" to be killed by the Heavenly Fire.

And on the ground, even the crypt demons who dived into the ground to try to escape this "catastrophe" were steamed to death by the soaring temperature on the surface! Not to mention the dirt that was directly blown away because of the fire that day, the exposed crypt demons were burned clean like other undead on the surface.

And those who are wide and fat, and have formed another wall, are also completely burned into charcoal in such a precise "barbecue", and finally turned into powder and blown away by the constant waves of air.

Only those high-level necromancers and death knights, using anti-magic shields, survived like a few lonely grasses in the devastated land after a typhoon.

And farther away, those undead who were forced to be unable to approach by the rolling heat wave (harmony) could only temporarily stop their progress, only the five giant meat grinders were still throwing, which made the danger on the city wall still not be well improved, even if the reinforcements attached to the ant siege city were gone, but the round of undead "rushing" just now had made the defenders' defense line crumbling, and many high elves, even powerful magisters, had died, which caused the complete collapse of the defense line.

Despite this occasion, it was only a matter of time before Silvermoon City was about to be destroyed, as it was like cutting off enemy reinforcements.

But it seems that this time is not willing to wait any longer, with Alsace as the center, the rapid release of the freezing gas has cooled the surrounding land and even the air, and this range is expanding, and the place where the freezing gas spreads, a frost road is completely unfolding.

The frost spread and climbed up the city walls, as if to freeze Silvermoon City, the frost spread and stabilized, completely extinguishing the flame that had just been invincible, and the subsequent undead troops began to advance in an orderly manner, ready to use their bodies to fill the gap burned by the heavenly fire just now.

Isn't it just hundreds of thousands of undead? Arthas had a thought, and countless armies of the undead behind him surged up again......

The heavenly fire is still angrily raining down "divine punishment", but after the frozen gas on the ground has formed a certain scale, in the cold environment of the Frost Road, the power of the flames falling in the air has been weakened to the limit! The undead units below the ghouls can still barely be burned to death, but the undead units of this size and strength above the crypt demons cannot, and this kind of burning can't break the frozen gas that adheres to them at all.

But fortunately, this magic bought enough time for the defenders and civilians, and it was worth it, and now it only needs to consume some more undead cannon fodder power......

While the Sun King was restlessly thinking about countermeasures—

"Huh-" An abomination drew a beautiful and deadly parabola in the air, and smashed it into the tower where the Sun King and his party stood with extraordinary precision from a long distance, this spell casting location was finally exposed, and the range of those giant meat grinders could be even longer, and they also experienced it first-hand!

"Be careful!" Edlan shouted, a rich blast of holy light erupting, and in the fleeting moments of closeness, the divine shock struck the orb-like abomination, scorching it into ashes in the air.

"Whoa—whoa—whoa—"

The first shot was like a calibration of a test shot, and the dense projection that followed was a bit of a strangulation, and Arthas wanted to strangle the people here.

In this case, Adlane is a little difficult to defeat with two fists and four hands, he can quickly do one, two or even 10 abominations, but under the intensive and continuous attack, he is the only one who has a powerful long-range attack means and has nothing to do, and those who break the spell, it is okay to be a qualified magic meat shield, and it is too difficult for them to carry out long-range attacks.

"Bang!" another abomination exploded after being burned by Adlan's aggressive Divine Energy as if it had been punctured in the belly!

This kind of vicious attack does not feel any threat when it is far away, that is, some large pieces of meat falling down may cause damage to some houses, but there will definitely be no civilian casualties, because the closest place to the city wall, those civilians have long been withdrawn, so in the face of these pieces of meat falling from the sky, those soldiers with a certain level of literacy should not have any big problems.

But as the abomination grew, the magisters also felt that they couldn't stay here anymore, and Arthas made up his mind not to let them cast spells so calmly, so the Sun King and his members of the Silver Moon Council looked at each other, and gradually canceled the "Sky Fire" magic that was being maintained and channeled.

The orange-red color in the sky began to recede, and the black clouds representing the undead and the green poisonous mist of the plague began to rise again, and they gradually began to expand from the "suppressed" state just now, and returned to their original "unscrupulous" appearance.

With the liberation of those magister's hands and mental power, the abomination and ghoul that are constantly thrown are no longer a threat here, because those magus can handle these things very well, which also makes Edlan, who almost can't help but use the fury of revenge to amplify it, breathe a sigh of relief, no matter what, the skill of pressing the bottom of the box is temporarily retained.

But what should he do about this dilemma now? He didn't want to wade into this troubled water, but the Sun King was very "generous" to transfer the wounded paladins to Queldanus Island with the civilians, and several other paladins who were still able to fight were also sent to work in other defensive positions, and he just didn't want to participate in this matter.

So since he was back in the game, he had to figure out how to solve this problem, looking at the mages around him, who were already a little weak and sweating, including the Sun King himself, Edran clearly realized that the power of this super-large range of magic was huge, and the results were also huge, but the pressure on only twenty mages to work together was also very huge.

Although these archmages are still effortless to deal with those abominations who are making fixed parabolas in the air, what if Arthas comes at this time? The "Frost Path" that appeared in advance has already indicated that Arthas has no burden with such a "big move", so the last time Adelan was lucky enough to hurt Arthas, it is estimated that he was robbed of the first hand by himself because of the other party's carelessness, right?

So in such a situation of unconfidence, but also in such an unfavorable environment. Now, Arthas and Naozu, who are getting serious, I'm afraid it's not so easy to deal with. Adelan is here to reduce the tragedy, so the best way now is to abandon Quel'Thalas completely and move to the Hillsbrad Hills, even Theramore, but neither the Sun King, nor the members of the Silver Moon Council, none of the High Elves will agree with Adelan's "great rebellion" persuasion.

Because this is very similar to the situation when Medivan lobbied the big people from all over the world, so, with Medivan's "Jewel" in front, Edlan will not be stupid to run to dance the gods before the established facts happen, after all, the god stick is not so easy to pretend.

Since the "tragedy" does not want to be "saved" by him, then he does not want to be buried with the Sun King and his council members, and when Kael'thas returns to preside over the overall situation, Adlan will be co-opted as the current supreme governor of the Lordaeron Northlands as the "then" Marshal Gariss, it seems that this is the best answer......

The old Anastria's respite was finally over, and he felt the erosion of the years, so he gave the order again, "We must stop the evil adversary!

Sure enough, when Edlan heard this, his heart was already half cold.

Sun King, where did you get the courage to go to Arthas, who is hard and has the blessing of frost's sorrow and the remote connection of Nao Zu?

But he couldn't refuse at the moment, he could only be taken away directly by the teleportation spell, when the white light dissipated, the group had already come to the ground full of frost, the temperature here was already very low, not at all the suitable temperature of the four seasons of the Yongge Forest, such as spring and autumn, the Sun King and other magic masters immediately melted the aggressive frost of the living, so that the group had enough space to prepare for battle.

They were faced with a group of more than a dozen Death Knights led by Arthas and several necromancers. And on the side of the living, together with the Sun King, there are a total of twenty great magisters, except for the Sun King himself and the strength of the epic, all the others are at the hero level, and there is also Edlan who is a hero-level paladin, and the rest are ten high-level professional spellbreakers, these people are the most staunch guardians of the royal family.

In terms of numbers, the two sides seem to be almost equal, but if they really fight, it's really hard to say, although the strength of both sides has been affected to a certain extent, especially on the side of the living, the strongest, aging Sun King, although he still has an unyielding will and extraordinary strength in the face of strong enemies, but age is still his hard wound.

On the other hand, Arthas's expression was still so cold, and he could still maintain such "tranquility" after the blow that had just experienced the "Doomsday Catastrophe", not to mention that he alone cast a large-scale spell comparable to the magic of heavenly calamity...... It's not so much the facial paralysis he had after becoming a Death Knight, but the kind of blow and attrition that was nothing to him at all.

Because it was not a concentrated and orderly "bombardment" of holy light like Edlan, but just covered the powerful unit of Arthas in a large magic, so such a blow could not hurt him at all, as for the frost path that came out in advance, Naozu and Frost Sorrow naturally had such strength, so Arthas himself was not affected.

"Look! That's Your Majesty!"

"Yes, Your Majesty and his Spellbreaker are guarded!"

"And the Silvermoon Council!"

"We've won!"

In addition to the fierce fighting, the defenders on the city wall immediately discovered that on the frosty ground in front of them, the Sun King led the high-end combat power of Silvermoon City to the front line, and they would face Arthas, who was only guarded by "a few people"!

Just as the High Elves blindly believed that their magical barrier was absolutely safe, they also blindly believed in the power of the Sunseeker King, because the Sun King had won many victories for Quel'Thalas, dismantled many threats, and under his rule, Quel'Thallas was able to survive the nearly 3,000 years in relative peace.

Although the High Elves are arrogant, the Sun King has won the approval of these proud elves with his own strength, and it also proves that he can command these proud elves, protect these proud elves, and let their kingdom continue to enjoy peace.

P.S1: Regarding the design of the height of the city wall, we will take a relatively realistic value here, rather than an exaggerated wall of tens or even hundreds of meters at every turn, as in the game......
