Chapter 1097: The Third Lich King

Hearing the Lich King's words, Xiang Ningxuan's pupils couldn't help shrinking: he squinted his eyes and looked the Lich King up and down again, making sure that he was not impersonating.

The Sixth Sense's perception of energy can detect the surging soul energy in the Lich King's body. This level of energy is as vast as the abyss and the sea, and even if someone can imitate the Lich King, they can't gather such a powerful force.

So the Lich King in front of him is real, but the tone and tone of his voice are completely different from before. There is no such cold and rigid feeling, but it is like suppressing intense pain, revealing a deep sense of exhaustion.

Anyway, you can't kill each other, so let's talk! Xiang Ningxuan's mind was racing, and he said tentatively: "Alsace? ”

"Yes......"

In the eyes of many, Arthas is the Lich King, but it is not. The Lich King is the representative of the collective consciousness of the Scourge, equivalent to the CEO of the group, and must represent the interests of the group when he speaks and acts. And Alsace represents him only personally.

Usually, the two are unified.

Under what circumstances does Arthas need to leave behind being the Lich King? It must not be in the interests of the Scourge!

"My time...... Not much...... they want me to be the true god - the god of death! ”

"But I'm ......, please say sorry to Gianna for me!"

Arthas's voice was choppy as he spoke, as if most of his energy was suppressing something.

However, the amount of information in the words is very large. If it weren't for Xiang Ningxuan's knowledge of a lot of inside stories about the gods, I'm afraid it would still be difficult to understand.

The so-called "true God" is to reach the realm of "heaven and earth are unkind, and all things are dogs", without any emotional bonds, no distinction between good and evil, and only the purest thought, that is, the Godhead.

The Lich King becomes a god, and must be the god of death, representing all the undead of natural disasters, and the goal is to destroy all living beings and establish an eternal kingdom of the undead. At that time, the Icecrown Fortress of the Old Lair will be transformed into the realm of the Kingdom of God, and the Lich King will share life with the entire Scourge Legion, immortal. And the individual will of Alsace will be annihilated in the collective consciousness of billions of dead souls.

This is in the collective interest of the Scourge Legion, but not in the interest of Arthas.

"Okay, I'll tell you." Xiang Ningxuan said, "Gianna is fine now, she has shaken off the shackles of her soul and chose to shoulder the mission of Admiral Kul Tiras, leading her people to a new life. ”

He only stated the facts, and did not ask rhetorically, "What about you?" The king of Alsace who destroyed his kingdom with his own hands. "So as not to provoke the other party.

When it comes to Kurtilas, Arthas naturally thinks of his homeland Lordaeron, a shackle that he can't shake off in his heart.

"I'm ......, uh!" Arthas was about to say something, but he covered his head and shook it, "I can't go against their will. I ......"

Shen Tao quietly touched Xiang Ningxuan and asked if he wanted to make a move.

Come on! Instead of killing the Lich King, it will blow Arthas's will. The Lich King can be full of blood and blue after returning to the Frozen Throne to cultivate for a while, so it is better to try to disturb his mind.

It took a long time for Arthas to suppress the power of the backlash and straighten up in the face of Frost's sorrow.

"I now finally understand my father's teaching: kings should always be on the side of the people, otherwise they will be revolted. Stratholme was like that, the general could order the slaughter of the city, but the prince couldn't, even if it was to prevent the plague from spreading throughout the country.

"Now, too, the Lich King claims to be the ruler of all the undead, and has absolute power over any of his subordinates, but in reality, the hatred, pain, and destruction of hundreds of millions of undead dominate me. Any action that goes against the collective will of the Scourge Legion will be met with a soul backlash, more direct than when I was a prince. ”

"After this time, I'm afraid it will be difficult for me to make my own decisions."

Do you understand that there is a hairy use? That's how Nao Zu was pitted, look at the current Scourge Legion, does the original Lich King still have the right to speak? It's because Nao Zu won't last long that you will take over as the Lich King!

Now it seems that Alsace will not be able to hold on for long. Who will be the next generation of Lich Kings chosen within the Scourge? Certainly not Bolval!

Uncle came to the throne because the Alliance Tribes killed Arthas on the Frozen Throne, and his main role was to suppress the Scourge Legion. To make an analogy, if the country is defeated and replaced by an enemy country with a puppet emperor, what resources can it have? As a result, he is the weakest in strength and power in his hands, so much so that Queen Xi can tear the Lich King apart by killing him single-handedly.

"So, have they chosen your successor?" Xiang Ningxuan asked.

"I only know three possible candidates, and who will end up will depend on their performance." As he spoke, Arthas suddenly grinned and said, "Your wife's physical energy has been exhausted in order to protect the child in her womb, and she is now burning her soul support. If you don't come, they will die at any time. ”

"Nima!" Xiang Ningxuan almost couldn't help but draw his sword and slash over.

But Arthas sneered: "The day you attack the Frozen Throne is the time when the power of the old and new Lich Kings will be handed over. You should be familiar with this routine, right? ”

That's right! At the beginning, Brother Dan led his army to kill the frozen throne and almost killed Nao Zu. Arthas led reinforcements to the Savior, defeated Egg, and was crowned the new Lich King himself.

Obviously, the new Lich King candidate should already be in a position in the Scourge Legion, so he has a chance to lead the rescue. Arthas, on the other hand, will be used as a decoy for the Frozen Throne, attracting the best of humanity to raid and eventually become a stepping stone for the new Lich King.

Xiang Ningxuan pointed his sword forward and said, "Are you so sure that you can stay until the rescue of the new Lich King?" ”

Arthas said coldly, "If they all fail, it means that they are not qualified to inherit the throne of the Lich King." The Scourge is the embodiment of billions of undead who may be chaotic for a while, but will still rebirth a new Lich King. ”

Xiang Ningxuan asked, "Then what if I become the Lich King?" ”

"You?" Arthas said, "What qualifications do you have to become the Lich King?" The original undead came from the orc Shadowmoon Clan, and Nao Zu was their leader. Then, the plague of natural disasters broke out in Lordaeron, and the main members became the Lordaerons. So, I was chosen as the second Lich King. ”

"Now, the vast majority of the dead souls come from Tianzhu. The third-generation Lich King candidates naturally had to be selected from among the undead of the Tianzhu high caste! Only in this way can the entire legion be commanded. ”

Oh, that statement, it seems to make a lot of sense. The Lich Kings are all from the main members of the Scourge.

Tianzhu has a population of more than one billion, and hundreds of millions have turned into natural disasters, and the number of the original Lordaeron people has exploded. With the passage of time, it is inevitable that the dominance of natural disasters will gradually be controlled.

It's just that the third brother race is very strange, and it has always been conquered by a few foreign races, such as the Mughal and the Rotten Kingdom. The caste system is also designed to facilitate rule.
