With the Faceless Ones opening the way, the road to the upper kingdom was unimpeded, and Arthas and his Scourge elites finally crossed the vast Spider Kingdom and reached the surface.

Arthas felt a little glare and couldn't help but squint.

The sun shines in the sky, shining on the ice, which is dazzling.

Ice, as far as the eye can see, there is ice everywhere.

This is the Icecrown Glacier, the thick ice is tens or hundreds of meters high, and countless creatures are frozen in the ice forever, including ancient dragons.

Thick layers of snow cover the ice, decorating the place with a kingdom of ice and snow, an eternal realm that belongs only to the undead.

Arthas looked up and saw a dense mass of undead in the distance, converging in this direction. However, most of the undead are already slow to move, and they are in a sea of glaciers and snow with deep snow and limited mobility, so although it is within the reach of the naked eye, it may take at least an hour to actually reach here.

There are many more undead farther away, too many to count.

Arthas turned his head and saw a frozen castle towering into the sky, towering like a mountain, standing on top of the mountains, and like a frosty tower that became sharper and sharper as it went up, and the spire was where the Lich King was imprisoned, which looked so incredible.

The frozen castle doesn't seem to be fully finished, and there are traces of construction everywhere, but now all the construction crews are gone, presumably summoned by the Lich King to the interior of the castle to keep him safe.

"On Icecrown, there are more than half a million undead. There are many more undead who are fighting elsewhere. Keel Wilderness, Winter Lake, Grizzly Hills, Howling Fjord, Borean Tundra, and even Zudak are all our targets. The enemy's surprise attack was too sudden to summon all the undead. Otherwise, even if there are ten times as many enemies, you won't want to enter the Icecrown Fortress. ”

Anubarak's voice was low and full of pride: "Half of all this is due to me!" ”

That's not wrong at all.

The Lich King's original territory was only Icecrown.

It wasn't until he did his best to break through the Spider Kingdom and kill and resurrect Anubarak, and then with the powerful combat power of Anubaraq and the Crypt Demons, he expanded his power, killed a large number of aborigines, and possessed hundreds of thousands of undead.

But that was before.

Later, Kel'thugad founded the Cult of the Damned, which alone spread the plague in the kingdom of Lordaeron, and created millions of undead. Kel'thugad came from behind, and his position was already looming above Anubrak.

But the advent of Alsace changed the situation once again.

After receiving Frost Grief, Arthas has actually become the first person under the Lich King.

Will this change in status cause hostility from others?

Arthas glanced at Kel'thugad and Anubrak.

Kel'thugad, he knew, would not.

Kel'thugad had no desire for power, and everything he did was for greater power and deeper knowledge.

But Anubarak is not easy to say.

If the Lich King's power continues to decline until it reaches some dangerous edge......

Alsace shuddered.

He glanced at Herald Volaz, who was standing not far away, and thought to himself that the Scourge Legion seemed to be powerful, and the Faceless Ones had joined them, but in fact, they all harbored ghosts.

The Lich King has such great power and unfathomable wisdom far higher than himself, but he still can't completely control everything, why?

Because he is imprisoned in the frozen throne and has no freedom!

This is probably the biggest restriction Kil'Gardan gives to the Lich King. A demigod-level existence with freedom, I'm afraid that even Kil'Gardan will feel a headache and be difficult to control.

If the free Lich King rebels, he will be able to deal with it unless Kil'Gardan is there.

Arthas knew that the Lich King had rebelled, but he didn't have the strength to rebel, which is why he was in danger today.

But it will soon be over, and a new Lich King will appear in front of the world, beyond the control of Kil'Gardan.

That's what he's here for.

Arthas glanced at Herald Volaz again.

If he gets the full power of the Lich King, does he need to take care of the ancient god Yogsaron?

An imprisoned ancient god, what is there to fear?

"Ahh

Suddenly, Arthas screamed in pain again, clutching his head in pain.

"What's the matter, my prince?" Kel'thugad asked, turning his head.

"The Lich King warns me that the enemy has breached the Gate of Damnation and entered the Icecrown Citadel! The undead are holding them back as much as they can, but I'm afraid it won't be long before they stop! ”

Arthas gritted his teeth and said, "We must enter the Icecrown fortress immediately and stop them!" ”

"Come with me, then, and we'll go in through the main entrance. Rest assured, Death Knight, there are still 50,000 undead in Icecrown Fortress, which is enough to withstand for a while! Anubarak said.

…………

Jiang Zai frowned.

There are more and more undead encountered, the High Elf mages have been damaged by several, the Nagas have been damaged even more severely, Kael'thas has consumed a lot of mana, and Tyrande is also a little tired.

They are all still flesh and blood, they are already very tired from the long run, and they have experienced the battle of the Gate of Damnation, in fact, everyone is not in a very good state now, but they can only hold on, because there is no time for them to rest.

The Lich King knew everything they were doing, and there was no way for them to hide, and all the undead were rushing towards them. Although they are not afraid, if they continue like this, they will definitely be dragged here, and I am afraid that there is not much time left for them.

There are many more undead who are swarming towards the Icecrown Fortress.

No one knows how many undead there are in the entire Icecrown glacier, but there are hundreds of thousands. If so many undead returned, even if they were beaten with iron, they would have to die here sooner or later.

"Let's take a detour!" Jiang Zai ordered the game warehouse to open the power to the maximum that it could bear, directly covering the surrounding one kilometer, and it was easy to figure out the distribution of the undead, and then pointed in a certain direction and said, "Let's go this way!" ”

The Lich King's frenzied psychic power, which spreads throughout the Icecrown Fortress, affects spell casting, as well as the scanning of the game compartment, and must expend twice as much energy as usual to complete the scan.

Luckily, the game warehouse is well stocked.

Icecrown Fortress was huge, it was actually a city, and it was three times more majestic than Lordaeron or Stormwind, and it was too tall.

Stormwind City is fully utilized and can accommodate more than 200,000 people.

Lordaeron plus the underground area can accommodate more than 300,000 people at full capacity.

The interior space of Icecrown Fortress is even larger than that of Lordaeron and Stormwind, and the undead don't need any living conditions, so it's no problem to pile them together. So this castle can actually hold more than half a million undead.

This shows how big the castle is.

There are many ways to go here, and there are all kinds of traps.

Don't think that the undead can't make any good buildings.

In fact, the Lich King Neozu himself has a very high level of knowledge, and Kilgardan seems to have given him some technology and spells that belong to the Burning Legion.

After conquering the Spider Kingdom, the Scourge received technology inherited from the Elder Gods by the Nirub Zerg, as well as technology from Torville and even the Titans, which was far superior to humans, even stronger than gnomes and goblins.

In addition, it is the same sentence: the undead are not human, do not need to rest, do not know exhaustion, do not even intrigue, can work non-stop from morning to night, and are very efficient and can hardly go wrong.

It's been nearly 13 years since Neozu was transformed into the Lich King by Kil'Gardan, and it's been more than two years since he conquered the Spider Kingdom, which is enough time for him to build such a large and magnificent castle with very good construction quality.

It's full of mechanisms, and there's traces of magic everywhere.

It is difficult for ordinary people to reach the Frozen Throne from the entrance, and only Jiang Zheng, who has the memories before crossing and the scanning function of the game warehouse, can easily find the best way to the Frozen Throne.

They are playing hide-and-seek with the Scourge Legion.

But as they get closer to the Frozen Throne, they encounter more and more undead, and eventually they have to fight to the death.

Countless skeletons scattered, countless zombies were buried in the flames, and this brutal battle lasted for a full hour.

In order to stop the pursuers, Illidan ordered Vasqi and his Nagas to stay where they were and maintain an enchantment strong enough to keep all the undead at bay, while the others continued to advance.

Keep going, keep fighting.

Half an hour later, they finally met the most terrible enemy:

Alsace, in front of you.
