Chapter 353: Bombing Northrend (4/4)
The Well of the Sun Heights, on the highest dome.
Below is the location of the original Well of the Sun, but now that the Well of the Sun has collapsed, thankfully there is a way to make up for it.
Kael'thas held out his right hand, and a seed appeared in the palm of his hand.
This is the seed of the Ancient Miracle Tree "Akando", and it took him a month to find the Grand Druid "Valley Walker" Farodin and convince him to give the seed to himself.
Unfortunately, Farodin was reluctant to leave Sulama, as it seemed that he had more important things to do. Otherwise, with the help of a Grand Druid, Akando would have no problem growing.
Kael'thas couldn't have done anything to Farodin, as the Grand Druid was a member of the Cenarion Council and had always been in contact with Malfurion's men, and he didn't want to get into trouble.
Once Marfurion is provoked, the High Elves will not be able to stay in the Valley of Grey.
Kael'thas looked up and looked to the southwest, which was in the direction of Lake Lordanmere.
Five days ago, he sensed the powerful arcane energy fluctuations in that area, and soon knew that a new World Tree had been born, and he was a little admired and jealous of Jiang Zheng.
He worked hard, even fought with Shadolei and Fadore, and paid the price of several High Elf mages to get the seed of the Ancient Miracle Tree, and Jiang Zheng had already planted the World Tree silently. The value of the World Tree is much higher than that of Akando.
Of course, for the High Elves, Akando is more useful.
When the matter here is over, he will return to the Demon Slayer Canyon and plant this seed, reaping the hope of a new life.
Kael'thas looked at Illidan not far away, and then at the ugly creatures standing next to the altar, frowning slightly, making no secret of the disgust on their faces.
Naga, appeared.
The Naga were originally the nobility of the Night Elves: the Upper Elves.
Ten thousand years ago, these powerful people were attracted by the energy of the Well of Eternity and abused magic without restraint.
Later, they were tricked by the Dark Titan Sargeras to build a megaportal in the Well of Eternity so that Sargeras could use it to invade the world of Azeroth.
The actions of the High Elves led to the first invasion of the Burning Legion and the outbreak of the War of the Ancients. After that, the Well of Eternity exploded, and the upper elves sank to the bottom of the sea, and most of the upper elves were cursed forever and turned into youkai-like naga.
Their leader is the lord of the Ancient Night Elf Empire: Azhara, the most powerful mage in the world.
The mages of Dalaran had always admired Egwene the Guardian, but in the eyes of the long-lived High Elves, Queen Azhara was much stronger and stronger than Egwene.
This humanoid creature with a lower body like a large snake and scales all over its body is the same immortal species as the High Elves, and some of them have mutated and become immortal species like the Night Elves, such as the Naga witch "Vaschi" who stood next to Illidan not far away, who was the maid of Queen Aishara 10,000 years ago, and is still alive and has no less power than herself.
These nagas, like ever, are obsessed with arcane magic.
Tall, slender, with fine scales and tentacles on their faces, female Naga are some like Night Elf sentries and High Elf rangers, skilled in combat, agile, and armed with several weapons, some even four or even six arms, known as the Naga Siren.
There are also those with high intelligence, who are the de facto rulers of the Naga tribe, possess strong spell-casting abilities and arcane talents, and are known as "Naga witches", such as Vasqui.
Naga males are larger and stronger, and they also look closer to beasts in appearance.
They have dragon-like heads and seemingly unevolved human muscles. The scales covering her body were far larger and thicker than the female naga, and they were even stronger and more powerful than the strongest Night Elves.
In the Storm Bay of Azara, Illidan summoned these monsters that inhabited the deeper depths of the deep sea with a magic that Kael'thas did not understand at all, and Vasti recognized Illidan at a glance, and then, for some unknown reason, chose to follow Illidan.
Kael'thas knew very well why Illidan wanted to summon Naga, because he was afraid of the power he had, so he wanted to summon another force to balance it with him.
Very clumsy trick, but effective.
More than three thousand naga, it is indeed no less than the dozens of high elf mages he brought, and even stronger.
Kael'thas doesn't care about any of that.
He just wanted this to end as soon as possible, and then he would get what he wanted, and never have anything to do with Illidan again.
A green gem almost larger than an adult's head, floating in midair.
Kael'thas looked at the gem with some envy and some longing, but finally resisted the greed in his heart.
It was a demonic gem known as the "Eye of Sargeras", which was filled with unimaginable demonic energy. Only powerful demons can use it. Unless he wanted to turn into a demon, Kael'thas would never touch it.
It is not Kael'thas himself who is being seduced by this gem.
In fact, there have been three High Elf mages who couldn't resist the temptation to try to get close and get their hands on the gem, only to be stunned by Kael'thas.
Naga's side is much more cruel!
The three Naga Sirens and the four Naga Royal Guards were killed by Vasqui's own hands, and the corpses were in place, warning all Naga, or High Elves, who wanted to get closer.
The Eye of Sargeras transformed the space in the nearby area, and countless fine fissures appeared, and on the other side of the fissures was an indescribable torrent of the Void, the gem absorbing energy directly from the Twisted Void.
And what supported it to accomplish all of this was the energy gathering circle that the High Elf Mage and the Naga Witch had built over the past three days by combing through the High Earth Demon Net in the Well of the Sun!
Thinking of everything in the past three days, the corners of Kael'thas twitched slightly.
The Naga Witch's ability to cast spells, as well as her attainments in arcane magic, were much stronger than those of the High Elves, much to Kael'thas's displeasure.
Yes, in the distant era of the Night Elf Empire, the upper elves who have now become Naga are the most powerful group of mages in the entire world, and the High Elf mages that his ancestors took away and established Quel'Thalas are only left......
Illidan stood in the center of the energy gathering circle, a demonic hand held high, and the Eye of Sargeras was in the palm of his hand.
Only a demonic energy user of Illidan's level could manipulate such a terrifying artifact, but it also needed the assistance of a dozen Naga witches.
This gem is one of the two items that Sargeras brought with him when he entered Azeroth, the other being the Scepter of Sargeras, which can open portals and cross the astral plane.
The energy contained in this gem was definitely much more than Guldan's skull, so much so that even Illidan didn't dare to absorb it, for fear of being directly exploded by it.
The spell has been cast for two hours.
This ritual must continue until Illidan achieves the desired effect. The Naga Witch has changed three batches, all of which have run out of energy, and only Illidan is still holding up.
And Kael'thas and his High Elf mages are tasked with ensuring that the entire ritual is not interrupted.
Because once the casting ritual of this level is interrupted, the energy backlash caused will be unimaginable, even Illidan will not be able to withstand it, and the Eye of Sargeras will be destroyed - this gem is destined to be used only once from the time it is used to cast spells.
Looking at the corpses of the three High Elf mages that had fallen on the ground, Kael'thas felt distressed.
Every corpse is a one-hit kill.
Although they have maintained mage armor or other defensive spells, it has been useless.
Although their spellcasting abilities are all good, and each of them is a veritable high-level mage, and some are even eligible for the title of "archmage", it is useless.
That terrifying watcher can easily break through any defensive spell below the legendary level, and even he must be careful, otherwise if he is not careful, he will become a ghost under the sword.
Kael'thas is always on his toes.
Suddenly, he sensed danger coming.
A cold light appeared like a bright moon, slashing through the neck of a High Elf mage, and the three-layer defensive spell could not block it, blood splattered, and before the High Elf could even react to what was happening, it had already fallen softly, and his eyes were full of nostalgia for life and fear of death.
"Here we go again!"
"Then don't go!"
Kael'thas raised his hand, and a spell trap that had been prepared suddenly activated, turning the area into a sea of fire.
This is the Phoenix Flame, and even the phoenix god "Ao" has appeared, dancing wildly in the sea of fire.
Kael'thas believed that even if the Dreadlord or the Abyss Lord fell into this carefully prepared trap, they would be crippled if they did not die.
For the sake of this trap, he even ignored the corpse of the High Elf mage, allowing him to be charred in the flames and then to ashes.
But Kael'thas didn't have any joy.
His gaze quickly fell to an ancient tree not far away, where there was a silent figure, all hidden under a dark green cloak and armor, with a head hidden under an iron owl helmet and a spiked moon wheel in his hand.
Yes, the bright moon is the moon ring, and it has returned to her hands.
Instead of striking out herself, she threw the moon wheel directly, taking the life of a High Elf mage and triggering a spell trap that could cripple her.
She was the most fearsome stalker in the world, she had fought countless terrible criminals, and she had seen and cracked many more traps in her life than Kael'thas had ever heard.
She is not a hunter, but she knows traps better than any hunter.
Setting a trap in front of her is as ridiculous as being a bear in front of Malfurion.
She is Mavi, the Night Elf Warden who has come to hunt down Illidan.
