Four hours later, deep in the Silver Pine Forest.

Malfurion walked out of the woods with an unconcealed anger on his face.

Outside the woods, Varian Claudia and the others who were waiting noticed his return, the human reinforcements had met with the Grand Druid two hours earlier, and shortly after the rendezvous, the Grand Druid went deep into the woods, intending to briefly communicate with nature to determine the extent of the pollution of the Silver Pine Forest.

Claudia greeted her, noticing Malfurion's face and asking, "What's the matter, Grand Druid, is it hard to cure the pollution of the Silver Pine Forest?" ”

"No, it has nothing to do with the Silver Pine Forest," Malfurion shook his head, staring at the rest of the crowd gathered around him, and said, "Just now the spirit of nature in the forest told me the purpose of Illidan's visit to the Eastern Continent. ”

Malfurion closed his eyes and unleashed a spell that revealed what he had just seen: the frozen earth was shaking and cracking to crumble, and Illidan was standing in a ruin performing a spell ritual.

Claudia had already recognized the frozen continent and exclaimed, "Illidan is destroying the entire Northern Rift Continent!" Why did he ---, how could he do it! ”

Destroy the entire Northern Rift?!

Varian's face fluttered when he heard this, and Gianna, who knew magic very well, looked incredulous, knowing how much power it would take to do so.

Malfurion replied angrily, "I'm not surprised that Illidan has done anything! He's always been so unscrupulous! ”

Varian frowned and thought before speaking, "I always feel that the location in the image is very familiar, I should have been there. ”

"It's Dalaran," Gianna said in a whisper, then added, "Dalaran after destruction, to be exact." ”

The silver hand flashed, and Claudia quickly spoke to everyone: "We must stop Illidan as soon as possible, not only for the countless creatures of the Northern Rift, but also for the --- of Illidan"

Speaking of this, Claudia paused for a moment and slightly corrected the Silver Hand's original words: "And Illidan is too ignorant, he has no idea what terrifying monsters are imprisoned in the great underground of the Northern Rift, once Illidan's spell destroys the cage, the consequences will be unimaginable." ”

Claudia's words caught the attention of the three people around them, and Varian asked their question, "How scary is that monster?" ”

Claudia repeated with a serious expression: "Under the senior professional, the first sight of it will go crazy, and the senior professional will completely lose his mind within two minutes of seeing it, even we heroes can't last more than a quarter of an hour, and as long as you witness the first sight, its image will be deeply reflected in your heart, and continue to test your will." ”

"What's more important is that its ontological vitality is very strong, and even heroes are very difficult to deal effective damage to it, to be honest, I think Akmund is much easier to deal with than him."

Everyone gasped, according to Claudia's description, Akmund was really nothing compared to that monster, and Akmund was already an existence that mortals could barely resist, if that monster escaped from the cage, it is estimated that the whole world could be destroyed because of this.

Varian knew Claudia's identity, and he didn't think Claudia was joking, so he quickly decided: "Without further ado, we'll go to the ruins of Dalaran right away." ”

Malfurion reminded, "Now that Tyrande and Mavi are not far from us, we should go and join their army first." ”

Naturally, Varian would not object, and it was not long before the human army succeeded in meeting with the Night Elf army, but to Claudia's surprise, she saw the Blood Elf army in addition to the Night Elves.

10,000 years ago, the Blood Elves and the Night Elves parted ways because of different philosophies, and today is the first time in 10,000 years that the Night Elves and the Blood Elves have united after splitting.

Varian clearly identified the Blood Elves from their banners and insignia on the soldiers, and said to Claudia and Gianna, "It seems that this army should be led by Prince Kael'thas, and we should go and meet him." ”

Claudia naturally had no opinion, but Gianna obviously hesitated: "Kael'thas? Well...... All right. ”

Soon after, the three of them found the prince of the Blood Elves, Kael'thas was an incomparably handsome male elf, he was tall, his long hair hung down to half the back was woven like pure gold, and his face was more angular and handsome, perfect as a statue carved by a craftsman rather than a real person, and his appearance was undoubtedly the first among the men Claudia had ever seen.

"It always feels like there's a story between Prince Kael'thas and Gianna."

From the moment they met, Claudia was keenly aware that something was wrong with the way the handsome prince looked at Gianna, a burning look of admiration mixed with a few other emotions.

Claudia's suspicion was confirmed soon after, and when they met and saluted, the elven prince greeted both Varian and Claudia very normally, but when Gianna arrived, his tone was noticeably turbulent, and he said with great seriousness:

"It's a pleasure to see you here, Lady Gianna, and I sincerely apologize for my rude remarks at our last meeting, and I hope you will forgive me for my faux pas."

"I don't mind, Prince Kael'thas," Gianna replied politely, "I can understand your feelings, and I'm glad you look like you're out of that incident. ”

Although Gianna was very polite, the obvious sense of distance in his words still disappointed Kael'thas a little, after nearly a year of disaster and separation, he actually had a lot to say to Gianna, but now the occasion is not suitable for him so he can only give up.

Varian had a brief exchange with Kael'thas, who was actually not familiar with Kael'thas, but Kael'thas made a good first impression on Varian.

In fact, there has always been a gap between humans and elves within the alliance, and the reason is very simple, elves have always been arrogant, and humans don't look down on elves as arrogant, but when Varian and Kael'thas communicated today, Kael'thas showed a very low gesture between his words, so Varian's evaluation of Kael'thas has improved a lot.

Gianna on the side was even more surprised, she knew Kael'thas when she was in Dalaran, in her impression Kael'thas was not so easy to speak, a few months ago when he was with Gianna for the last time, it was because of the tragedy that happened in Quel'Salas that he vented his anger on Gianna, and the words were so fierce that Gianna was scolded on the spot and burst into tears, which is why he just apologized.

But what Gianna didn't know was that after Kael'thas returned to Quel'Salas to take on the burden, he had matured a lot in just a few months in the face of the polluted sunwell, the devastated homeland, and the weakening of his people, and realized that after the destruction of the sunwell, neither he nor his elven people could change but perish.

At this time, Kael'thas has changed in many ways, not only has he left behind the unnecessary arrogance in his personality to become pragmatic and responsible, but he also led the blood elves to rejoin the alliance, and was determined to work hard to maintain a good relationship with humans, and even earlier today he suppressed the opposition of his people and chose to fight side by side with the night elves, which is unimaginable for any blood elf for tens of thousands of years.

"Prince Kael'thath, I heard that you marched from Lordaeron? What's the form like over there? Varian asked with concern, after all, after helping the Night Elves capture Illidan, he was going north to Lordaeron, and Lordaeron was actually still under the control of the Scourge Legion, and he hoped that Kael'thas could provide the latest information to facilitate his next move.

"The situation is very complicated, to the west of Lordaeron City is a ...... of the Great Lord of Death." Speaking of this, Kael'thas suddenly stopped, and several people present looked in one direction.

Seeing Malfurion's face flushed, he came with a heroine with an owl helmet, and when he approached the crowd, Malfurion said, "We must go immediately, I will punish Illidan with my own hands!" ”

"Okay, Grand Druid." Varian nodded to Malfurion, and then said to Kael'thas, "Prince Kael'thas, I'm going to have to wait a while to get busy before continuing our conversation." ”

Kael'thas nodded in agreement, and then the army began to move, and during the march, Claudia noticed that something was wrong, and the High Priest Tyrande had obviously arrived, but now she could not find any trace of the High Priest, but when Claudia asked Malfurion, the latter gave Claudia a surprising answer: Tyrande was seriously injured after being besieged by the undead, and fell into the river and drowned.

"I don't think the High Priestess is dead, but she's the goddess's favorite daughter."

Malfurion shook his head with a sad face: "The goddess is not a slave of the priests, even if Tyrande's request is always based on her mood, she always responds to the call, not to mention that Mavi also witnessed Tyrande's death, how can she joke about this kind of thing." ”

Claudia didn't say anything more, and returned to Varian with doubts, and soon encountered the Naga army on the outskirts of the ruins of Dalaran.

……

Call!

The trident in the hand of the Naga warrior, who was nearly three meters tall, swung with a sound of breaking through the air, and Claudia's light sideways dodge its swing, and her hands clenched the thin sword to cut a fan, slashing at the Naga warrior's waist.

Laugh at!

Blood spurted out and splashed a lot on Claudia's left arm, half of the Naga warrior's waist was cut off, and the internal organs also flowed out, and the Naga warrior slowed down in pain, Claudia jumped high and slashed at the Naga warrior's neck, and the latter's headless body fell to the ground with a bang.

Claudia looked around and found that the battle had not been fought long ago, and under the blows of humans, night elves, blood elf elites, and a few heroes, the Naga soldiers had already broken down and fled in all directions.

She was not surprised by this, after all, this is the normal state of war, as long as the enemy is not a demon or an undead, the average enemy will collapse when the casualties reach a certain level, not to mention that there is no hero in the opposing army now.

"Catch up, Illidan is not far ahead!" Mavi shouted with a frenzied look in her eyes.

Claudia also sheathed her sword and followed, and soon saw Illidan from a distance, and he had already noticed the presence of the people, especially Malfurion and Mavi, approaching.

"Damn, it's this time!"

Illidan's eyes were filled with anger and anxiety, and if the huge energy was interrupted by outsiders and caused an uncontrollable backlash, he would surely die.

"There's no way, the Lich King can be killed later, but only if I survive."

With a strong sense of reluctance, Illidan used his mastery of magic to stop the spell output in an instant, and transferred the four terrifying arcane energy counterattacks around him to the artifact Eye of Sargeras and the four mages.

Rumble!

The Eye of Sargeras was the first to take it and exploded into pieces.

Then the four Naga mages didn't even scream, and all their body tissues were destroyed by the arcane counterattack, and red blood glowing with purple intent flowed from their facial features to their skin.

Burst!

Illidan spat out a mouthful of blood and fell to his knees, although it was only a small part of the backlash, but it also seriously injured him, if he wasn't a demon lord whose body was far stronger than mortals, he would have died in the first moment of the backlash.

However, although Illidan's spells were interrupted, the Northern Rift and the world had been changed forever.
