Chapter 475: The Return of the Natural Disaster (End of Volume 2)
Himalayas, top of the world.
Snow and ice covered the lonely peaks, and the howling cold wind seemed to patrol its territory.
This is the frozen world, a forbidden place for the living. In the vast world, there are only eternal glaciers, and there is no trace of life activities.
A meteor trails an ice-blue tail flame across the sky. There was a sudden flash of lightning and thunder in the sky, which seemed to repel the meteor so much that it was vowed to tear it apart.
"Boom!" , this meteor slashed hard against thunder and lightning, fell rapidly, and smashed on the highest peak.
Ice chips flew and meteors crashed deep into the glacier, and even thunder and lightning were helpless.
After a long time, a pair of black palms stretched out from the crater that the meteor had knocked out, and then, supporting his whole body, crawled out.
Armor as black as ink, a helmet with spikes, an icy blue glow in his eyes, and the iconic longsword in his hand. He is Arthas, the newly descended Lich King.
Due to a bit of an "accident", the Lich King is now on Earth alone. He was targeted by the will of the world when he traveled through the barrier of time and space, and was beaten with lightning and thunder. It was not easy to cross the barrier of time and space and descend on this new world. The strength of one body has been removed.
Frostmourn has a crimson dragon-shaped scar on it, which was left by the forced defense of Kel'thugad.
After paying a heavy price, Kel'thugad still couldn't save it, and if it weren't for the last moment, Kel'thugad desperately sent the energy obtained by sacrificing the three of Rivendell, and it was questionable whether the Lich King could come smoothly.
"But I ended up in this world. I didn't want to hurt Lordaeron, I didn't want to hurt Azeroth, so I worked hard to get here. This new world is all right, let's enjoy this feast for the soul! I, Arthas Minethir, will be the king of this new world! ”
Ice-blue soul light emerged from the blade of Frost Sorrow, and many places on the top of the mountain that had been dead and silent surged, and one figure after another crawled out of the glacier. Dressed in various suits, these are the climbers who have died on the way to Mount Everest, and they have become the first subordinates of the Lich King when he came to this world.
Summoning these men and draining Arthas's remaining energy, he climbed to the top of the highest mountain, sat down with his sword in hand, and let the wind and snow freeze him.
At the same time, soul ripples spread out with his thoughts: "Soul, more soul!" I need more souls. ”
"Lannathel, Lady Dead Whisper, I need more souls! Anubarak, come to me. Defend my safety until my strength is restored. ”
Sitting on the top of Mount Everest, the Lich King sent orders to his right-hand men.

Tianzhu, the city of Bom Baia, is located on the western coast of Tianzhu and is the largest city in Tianzhu. It had a population of nearly 20 million before the end of the day.
Like the demon capital of the Republic, due to its dense population, when the end came, more than 10 million zombies emerged at once, and there were also many mutants. Dozens of zombie groups of more than 100,000 have sliced the city to pieces. There are also all kinds of monsters in the sea. The whole security environment is terrible.
The city of Bom Bahia also does not have enough military strength to exterminate the zombies. In order to survive, people spontaneously converge to form large and small settlements.
After more than a hundred days of consolidation after the apocalypse, the small settlements were already difficult to survive, and only five large settlements with more than 200,000 survivors remained.
Among them, in a large gathering point, a woman wearing a purple-black robe with slightly dark skin stood in the crowd and raised her arms and shouted, and tens of thousands of people around responded in unison.
It stands to reason that women have a low status in Tianzhu, and women with darker skin tones indicate a low caste rank. Under normal circumstances, it is impossible for such a person to get ahead in Tianzhu, but today's situation is just not normal.
This female mage, with her mastery of magic and amiable manners, contrasts with the arrogance of the other high-caste chiefs in the colony, and thus wins the support of a large number of the lower classes.
Moreover, unlike other masters, after gaining great strength, she began to enjoy life and live a superior life.
She was always poor, lived in the most humble house, ate the same food, and what was even more respectable was that she would carefully teach everyone how to cultivate and help people gain the strength to survive in the last days.
As a result, there are her followers in five large settlements in the city, and they are supported by hundreds of thousands of people. She selected the most loyal of them and assembled an elite guard of thousands of people, each of whom had a high level of personal strength.
Truth be told, if she weren't a woman, people might have thought of her as the Mahatma of the new era.
"Brothers and sisters! Why is it that the high-caste people can have no food and clothing, while we don't even have enough food to sustain ourselves? Before, we were powerless to resist, but now, the power is in our hands, let us take back what is rightfully our own! We want equality! The female mage chanted a slogan, and with her backhand resting, an ice-blue magical light rose into the sky, lighting up half of the sky.
The huge amount of magical energy can be felt even by ordinary people, and the surrounding people chant in unison, "Food!" "Equality!" The frenzied atmosphere shook the sky.
"Woo!" Hundreds of military police whistled and armed with batons to disperse the people, but it didn't take the female mage to do anything, and a frenzied crowd beat them to the ground.
It wasn't until half an hour later that the troops from the settlement came in full gear to drive them away.
A tall warrior in colorful heavy armor slashed dozens of fanatical people who blocked the way in a row, and pointed his sword at the female mage and said, "Lowly slave girl, we used to gradually destroy Brahma to divide the hierarchy for us before we would be punished by Shiva. Now, only by reforging the order, and each class doing its part, can the gods reclaim their punishment. As a Kshatriya, let me represent Shiva to destroy you, a lowly slave girl who deceives the people! ”
"The whole army listened, kill me!"
The indifferent army is like a sharp blade, cutting into the fanatical populace, setting off a bloody storm.
The magic rose beside the female mage, and she slowly floated, looking down at the Kshatriya warrior and the army of thousands, and said indifferently: "Although we were destined to our respective castes when we were born, there is one thing that does not distinguish between high and low, and that is death!" ”
Her hands were outstretched, and the two ice-blue balls of light she held in her hands glowed brightly. "Come on! Embrace death, embrace equality! Let's overthrow this sordid old order and create a new world for our dead! For the master, for the Lich King! ”
"Buzz!" The ice-blue energy burst open, and the eyes of all the fanatical populaces shone with ice-blue light, and they looked at the approaching army with hatred, howling and swooping down on it with their flesh and blood.
The vast majority of the army here is also newly recruited after the apocalypse, and they are at a loss in the face of the bloodthirsty and fanatical crazy people. Many people were knocked down and their weapons were taken away, and the two sides soon got into a scuffle.
In fact, there are still a few people in the fanatical people who can keep their sanity and have seen that the situation is wrong, but there is nothing they can do about it in the tens of thousands of fanatical people.
The tall Kshatriya warrior licked his long knife bloodthirstily and sneered, "A rabble, kill all these untouchables!" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, a sharp bone spur pierced his back, and although he killed the attacker with a backhand, he was taken aback by the scene behind him, and the untouchables he had just killed stood up again with an ice-blue light in their eyes, and launched a desperate attack on him.
"Wow!" Two black chains passed through the Kshatriya warrior one left and one right, and he still wanted to struggle, but those who had risen back to life would rather trap him, and use a frenzied attack of biting and scratching until he became weaker and weaker, and finally he was completely bound by the two chains.
"Whew!" The Kshatriya warriors swelled in size and roared into the counterinsurgency army with two black chains, and the army, which had been weakened by the fanatical populace, completely collapsed, abandoned its armor and fled in all directions.
The female mage stood on a high place, overlooking the battlefield that had gradually calmed down, and said in a deep voice, "Now, you can call me Lady Dead Words. Go ahead, for the sake of the master! The Lich King needs more sacrifices! ”
She was answered by tens of thousands of fanatical shouts, and people rushed frantically to other settlements, where tens of thousands of brothers and sisters would help them defeat their enemies inside and out. Even death can't stop them from moving forward, and when they die, they get up and continue fighting.
Moreover, many zombies in the city also cooperated with the Dead Lady to launch an attack on the remaining settlements.
Bom Baia, the largest city in Tianzhu, fell in less than three days.
————
Eastern Europe, Transylvania.
In a castle at the top of a hill, an elegant aristocratic lady sits on the top of the main throne with a pair of giant bat wings on her back. She shook the glass filled with scarlet liquid in one hand, shook it gently, and took a sip from her red lips with two sharp fangs.
The Blood Queen Lanather looked to the east and said, "The master has come, children of Sarein, let it go!" More sacrifices for the Lord! ”
Her right-hand man, the Princes of Varana, Tadaram, and Keresses fell to their knees and respectfully accepted the order.
A storm of blood erupts across Eastern Europe, killing countless people who have escaped the threat of zombies.
————
The Lich King Arthas was nourished by the soul energy sacrificed from Tianzhu and Eastern Europe, and he sat atop the ice crown of Mount Everest, quietly regaining his strength, waiting for the time to return to earth.
A crypt lord one size larger than Anubrekan, with a snowman strung on each of his two front paws, came to the Lich King, bowed and saluted, "My lord, your most loyal servant, Anubarak, salutes you! ”
