Chapter 111: Battle in the Sky
When Su Chen opened his eyes from the discomfort of teleportation, he was still the only one in the empty portal room.
"Is Dalaran's defense still so bad......" Su Chen frowned slightly, then pushed open the door and walked out.
However, he soon understood that this time the teleportation array was not left unguarded due to negligence, but because the battle ahead was too fierce, and all the soldiers and mages had already joined the battle.
Because the whole of Dalaran has become a battlefield!
The many mage towers in the city form a network of firepower that intersects far and near, and the killing power of the undead is extremely powerful, but the countless undead armies are still frantically pouring in.
From time to time, Naxxramas in the sky unleashed powerful shadow arrows that could destroy a mage tower almost every time, while constantly dropping containers full of plague carrion from the sky into the city, like a giant bomber.
Although many mage towers were also firing magic at Naxxramas in the air, most of them were blocked by the gargoyles guarding the surrounding of the floating city, and these gargoyles were completely unafraid of life and death, and whenever the losses were too heavy, a large number of gargoyles immediately flew out of the interior of Naxxramas.
Occasionally, some magic can hit Naxxramas in the air, but the damage is negligible due to its massive size.
"Even if Dalaran uses the strategy of luring the enemy deeper last time, it is estimated that it will not be of much use......" Su Chen looked at the battlefield in the distance and couldn't help but sigh secretly, this time the undead natural disaster should have learned the lesson of the last time, after breaking the city, he did not swarm in and blindly rush towards the Violet Castle, but destroyed the buildings and mage towers along the way, even if he could finally repel these undead, then Dalaran would only have one Violet Castle left at most.
Su Chen followed the path he had taken last time, preparing to find Gianna first and then Antonidas.
From time to time, soldiers could be seen hurrying by, supporting or carrying a pale young mage.
This is the mage's biggest drawback - running out of mana.
However, most mages cherish their magic powers, and every time they cast a spell, they will carefully try not to put themselves in danger of running out of magic.
Only some young mages would squander their mana without restraint when attacking.
Paladins are much better off in comparison, fighting as long as their stamina is not exhausted, not to mention those high-ranking warriors who are born to kill, and if there is a priest in the rear to pray and heal them, it is a real killing machine.
However, due to the high mortality rate of the warrior profession on the battlefield, there are very few people who can be promoted to high-level warriors, even Lothar, who was the commander of the coalition forces back then, also died on the battlefield.
Therefore, there are now far more high-level paladins with stronger self-protection than high-level warriors.
Although many people showed surprised eyes towards Su Chen along the way, perhaps it was the innate royal temperament that did not stop him along the way.
However, when he went to Gianna's room in Violet Castle, he found that the door was locked and there was no one inside.
"She should also go to the battle......" Su Chen frowned slightly, and had to stop a middle-aged mage who was passing by in a hurry to ask.
"Your Highness Arthas, why are you in Dalaran?" Unexpectedly, the middle-aged mage who was holding a large pile of spell casting materials actually knew Su Chen.
"You know me? I came in with a teleportation scroll, and I am currently coming to talk to Lord Antonidas on behalf of the Human Kingdom coalition about the fight against the undead scourge, do you know where Gianna is now? ”
"I once met His Highness in the Alterac Mountains with Lord Modra, and Master Gianna has already followed Lord Kael'thas to attack the Floating City of the Undead Scourge." The middle-aged mage said respectfully.
"Attack the Floating City...... Naxxramas?! Su Chen couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this.
"Well, the threat of the Floating City to Dalaran is too great, and it must be shot down or destroyed, Lord Kael'thas personally led some excellent archmages to teleport magic through space to enter the Floating City for internal destruction."
Kael'thas ...... Damn it! Isn't Gianna yet promoted to Archmage? How could she go with her. Su Chen asked with some annoyance.
Naxxramas should be the real control center of the Undead Scourges in Lordaeron, and the guards in it are absolutely extremely tight, and a group of mages rashly enter and attack, it is definitely a life and death.
"Gianna has been promoted to Archmage since returning from the Alterac Mountains."
"This ...... Where is Lord Antonidas, I need to see him at once to discuss matters. Su Chen couldn't help but be a little speechless, it was something to celebrate to be promoted to an archmage at a young age, but Gianna was really not promoted at the right time, and now he could only find Antonidas to think of a way.
"Lord Antonidas is casting a spell in the Violet Castle's Archmage Tower."
Violet Castle itself is a huge mage tower, but this huge mage tower can be divided into nearly 100 mage towers, large and small, among which the most powerful is the tallest main tower in the center.
This is a confidential place in Violet Castle, even ordinary archmages are not allowed to enter, and even if Su Chen is a prince, he has waited for a while before being allowed to enter.
Unlike other mage towers that could be used as mage residences, this main tower didn't have any daily necessities in it, and when Su Chen entered, he only saw his eyes full of magical light flickering.
All kinds of magic instruments and magic crystals fill almost all the space, and every time the mage tower casts magic, all the magic crystals will dim, and then gradually light up, it should have been recharged.
"Discover a huge amount of magical energy!" Zhi Brain immediately took the initiative to give a hint.
Su Chen could also feel the confused magical power around him, just like when he approached the sunwell for the first time now, it was obvious that there was also a tool that could provide a lot of magical power in this Dalaran.
"Thank you, Your Highness, for sending troops to help." Antonidas looked in fine condition, but his face looked a little tired.
"This is as it should be, several human kingdoms come from the same lineage, and they should naturally help each other in times of crisis, in fact, the main sources of troops are Riptide Castle and Kurtilas, and Lordaeron can not provide much assistance at the moment." Su Chen said with a smile.
However, when he asked if Qidaran had decided to abandon the city and break through, Antonidas immediately shook his head: "If we can destroy the floating city in the sky, maybe we still have a chance to turn defeat into victory, and it should be the command center of the undead natural disaster." ”
"So you sent Kael'thas and Gianna on an adventure?" Su Chen couldn't help frowning when he heard this, this old man was really stubborn, and it seemed that he even wanted to wait for the results of their battle before making a decision.
"There are indeed a lot of dangers in teleporting them, but most of them have the ability to teleport, and with Dalaran's teleportation scroll, they can be teleported back immediately in case of danger, and with Prince Kael'thas personally leading the team, and with the participation of many blood elf archmages, it shouldn't be too much of a problem." Antonidas seems to have a lot of trust in Kael'thas for his strength.
In fact, Kael'thas is indeed undoubtedly powerful, after all, he is a member of the Council of Six of Dalaran with Kel'thugad, and as an elven prince, his magical attainments must be higher than that of Kel'thugad.
However, the power of Kel'thugad, who has now been resurrected by the Lich King himself, is completely unknown.
"Storm Fortress boss vs. Naxxramas boss...... It's a bit of a fight. Su Chen frowned secretly, if Gianna hadn't gone with him, he would have liked to see how this battle would end.

PS: Speaking of Kael'thas and Xiao Ke, one fire and one ice, they fight according to their abilities in the game, I really don't know who will win......
