The screen doesn't make a sound, but the Caddyga mage in the picture seems to shout something, and a fireball condenses from his palm and pounces on the monster that is still half in the whirlpool.
The fireball hit the monster, leaving a visible burn mark on its face; The monster in the whirlpool had no way to dodge, and it screamed, trying to break out of the whirlpool, but it couldn't do it quickly.
Soon, more spells were cast from Khadgar Mage's hands and staffs, lightning, ice arrows, fireballs, ...... Under the near-endless bombardment, the monster finally turned into a wisp of blue-black smoke in the scream, and the air vortex gradually disappeared into the air.
This is the end of the scene, Master Khadgar has withdrawn his spells, and the sky above the table is back to normal.
Khadgar Mage didn't speak, just glanced at Archmage Antonidas, both of them seeing the other's concerns, but they knew that it would take time for these high-ranking members of the Human Alliance to digest this shocking piece of information.
"What is this?" King Terenus asked, frowning—but judging by his tone, he didn't seem too surprised.
"Demons." Master Khadgar replied simply, "An evil and powerful being, the enemy of all living creatures, lowly and mighty, and over the years, many powerful mages have fallen at the hands of even more powerful demons. ”
"Why are they here?" King Solas remembered the "burning army" mentioned by Arthas earlier, and after that he had personally tortured the orc chieftain, although with little success, at least confirmed that Arthas was right, which made King Solas have a sense of foreboding, could it be that the powerful force behind the orcs has launched an attack on humans? That's a lot faster than expected! Humanity has just gone through a terrible war and has not yet recovered from its weakness.
"Coincidence, of course, can also be said to be an inevitability." Master Khadgar said.
Seeing the puzzled expressions on everyone's faces, Master Khadgar continued to explain, "Ladies and gentlemen, we, Prince Danas's army and we, the mages of Dalaran, were not like this when they first came here......
According to Master Khadgar, after the Red Ridge Mountains and Ser Anduin Lothar's Stormwind army parted ways, Prince Danas's army and the mages rushed to this place, the birthplace of the orc invasion.
To their surprise, there was a small orc army here - along the way, they barely encountered formed resistance, and only wiped out a few orc armies.
Master Khadgar said that not far from the camp, after walking through a slope, the ground then suddenly descended into a deep canyon, and the mountain walls in the distance were even higher. In the center of this canyon stands a huge gate, which was not built on top of the city walls or other structures, but out of thin air. The building is tens of meters high and about the same width. It is made of some gray stone blocks with a green tinge. The pillars on either side are carved with rough twisted lines that surround a frowning skull, with two eerie barbs on each side, and some rough ornamentation on the pillars. Four steps away was the portal itself, its glow mixed with green and black, and full of energy. It's like a whirlpool, and the space is radiating energy and some strange sensations.
Master Khadgar claimed that the power was stretching deep into the earth, absorbing the energy from it to meet his needs.
"We attacked the orcs, Prince Danas's men fought bravely, and the orcs didn't resist strongly, and we quickly killed all of them, which allowed me to study the portal." Master Khadgar said.
After studying the portal, Master Khadgar came to the conclusion that the portal was broken, perhaps it had once connected the two worlds of orcs and humans, but due to the lack of energy, the portal could no longer work.
"We destroyed the portal, in the most radical way possible - every pillar of stone was crumbled, transported to the seashore, thrown into the sea - including the corpses of the orcs, I thought it would be done once and for all, but...... I was naïve. Master Khadgar said with a gloomy face.
"What happened?" No one disliked the archmage's procrastination, and everyone in the room knew that the archmage had done everything he could for humanity and the Alliance; Standing up, and patting the old man on the shoulder comfortingly, Sir Anduin Lothar asked softly.
"And here's what you're seeing—and that's happened more than once in the days since." Master Khadgar's tone was full of concern.
"During this time, our mage troops have been divided into several groups and have been fighting these demons almost day and night, but this is clearly not a long-term solution." Archmage Antonidas took over and added, "That's why it's up to you to negotiate a final plan. ”
So, what is the reason for this to happen? These...... Well, monsters, and I mean demons, how much harm can they do? King Solas asked—and that was a question on the minds of all of you.
"The reason for all of this is that portal." Master Khadgar explained, "Although we have destroyed that portal, severing our connection with the orc world; However, the destroyed portal still disrupts the space around it, making the time and space here chaotic and abnormal, and the demons swimming in the void can easily tear the shackles of time and space and come to our world. ”
"As for the ...... of harm," said Archmage Antonidas, "so far, no demons too powerful have found our world, and I and these mages of Dalaran are barely able to deal with it; But one day, the more powerful evil beings will discover our world and ...... An even greater catastrophe will befall us, and we mages are beyond it to resist. ”
"Do you have any proposals? Or rather, what do we need to do? King Terenus asked bluntly—the Void, the demons, and all of what Archmage Antonidas had said, were not clear to all of you; But they all realized the seriousness of the matter and were willing to contribute to solving these problems.
Arthas breathed a sigh of relief—he understood the relationship between coincidence and necessity that Master Caedergar had spoken of before—necessity, that these demons must have discovered the chaotic time and space here; And the coincidence is because...... So far, these demons who have come to Azeroth have been chaotic and unorganized.
Of course, Arthas also understands that if the rift in time and space here is discovered by more and more demons, then it will only be a matter of time before the Burning Legion knows about this vulnerability; The occasion was not convenient now, and he decided to wait until the meeting was over to see if there was any way to solve the problem once and for all with Frostmourn - and perhaps bring the unreliable Red Dragon Queen with him.
"We need money, manpower and material resources." Archmage Antonidas also did not shy away from saying, "We in Dalaran will send enough mage troops to be stationed here to continuously repair the rift in space; But at the same time, we need the Alliance's armies and a fortress to defend against the demons that might appear here. ”
King Terenus stroked his beard under his chin and didn't say anything - Lordaeron was not short of money, and despite taking in the remnants of Stormwind and continuing to provide material support to the kingdom of Stormwind, the silver mines in Stratholme were not affected by the war, and Tirio Fording and other lords were not affected
