I don't know when I woke up again, at this time, it was completely dark, and I couldn't tell what time it was, and if it weren't for the sporadic awareness, I really thought I was already in hell. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info For me, though, it doesn't make any difference anymore, because the foul-smelling sewers that can't be unblocked, the maggots and flies are full of maggots, and even an undead can feel dirty.

The deepest part of the dungeon, a place that no living person would ever touch, was once where Orgrim had never been imprisoned... I sighed and thought about my current situation, but I soon realized that there were no shackles on my body, and even my own injuries had been simply bandaged and medicated.

I couldn't help but feel a little glad to see this, maybe it was because someone still had a good impression of me like this, and I also trembled my spirit to find a way out in the dark, yes, although there were people here who were good to me, I still didn't want to stay here for the rest of my life, and soon found the tinder and torch, and after lighting it with great effort, I tried to grope my way towards a possible exit.

I was moving through the darkness by the sporadic light of the fire, and it was at this moment that I saw a dark shadow coming towards me. I instinctively extinguished the torch, then hid myself and remained vigilant to watch the change.

But the fire was extinguished, but I still felt him coming towards me unaffected, as if the darkness did not interfere with his vision. I couldn't help but regret this, because I remembered that some demons, such as the Dreadlord, had even more vision in the night than in the day, and if that were the case, it would have been against myself that I had done so, and of course he could have been some powerful mage, such as Medivan, and anyway, just in case, I picked up the weapon I could use, which was the torch stick, ready to defend against possible enemies.

After a while, the sound suddenly stopped, and I don't know why, but when a kerosene lamp was lit on the road, I quickly realized that she had been close to me at the time I thought it was quiet, and that I could immediately recognize her identity by the figure of her back, a familiar face that could not have been more familiar.

"It's you, it looks like Kael'thas knows I've failed, right, elven undead..."

"Yes," Sylvanas turned to me after lighting the lamp, and said to me calmly, as if it was clear that I would have such an attitude. "That's what Kael'thas has done to resurrect you, Arthas..."

"So you saved me to control me and let me continue the assassination mission, but I can tell you that this is impossible, I can't see my father anymore, and I won't let you succeed if I die!" I said angrily, and this anger once again triggered a recurrence of my old wounds. It made me feel a lot of pain, yes, and I was scarred a lot by that time... But this did not affect my will, or my thinking, because I hated the person in front of me very much, and even when she showed her sadness, it was natural to think that she was going to have a conspiracy against me.

"No, Arthas, it's not needed anymore—" She tried to check on my injuries, but was immediately stopped by me and kept away from me.

"That's best, I don't have any use value, then kill me, die in this filthy place....yes, at least it's better than dying in Quel'Salas who is raising all kinds of demonic minions!"

I tried to satirize her and her race in every way I could, but even so, she was not angry with me, but whispered and defended me like a wronged woman, but only in the evaluation of her race.

"We're all forced, you're not an elf, you don't know we have to have a magic source to keep us alive..."She started to raise her voice, but seeing that I was still angry, she continued to keep her voice down, "It's all forced." ”

"Yes, of course you understand them, and you've been with them all the way. ”

"Arthas, I know you're blaming me for killing you and making you like this, but even if I don't do it, you can't change your fate, can you?"

"No, at least I won't just go to Quel'Thalas for you, instead of leading the main force of our alliance at that time..."I retorted, and at this moment, I saw that she was a little moved, and immediately realized that my words seemed to indicate my own state of mind, so I immediately changed my words, "I don't blame you for killing me, but you used me, made me kill Uther, and tried to make me kill my own father, which is far beyond my bottom line..."

I continued to be angry with her, yes, it was mostly my real catharsis for her, and it seemed to make me forget the reality that she had feelings for me before the dead and what she was trying to redeem for me.

"No, Arthas, I didn't want you to do that, I know Kael'thas resurrected you, so I've been stopping you from doing that since I took control. ”

"No way! Then you shoot an arrow at me while I'm fighting Uther..."

I said angrily, and at this point I seemed to have overlooked something....

"I know you've been taken over by then, so I'm going to shoot you down... Just shoot you down, not trying to kill you and Uther. She was a little crying when she said this

"Well, you have a lot of excuses, but how do you make me believe everything you say, how do you prove it. ”

"Arthas, I'm really not going to be controlled anymore, because...."Sylvanas tried to explain why, but in a fit of rage, I didn't give him the time to explain.

"I don't believe you, Elf. I continued to call her that, but at this time I found that there were still some unrelieved feelings for her in my heart. "You've really disappointed me, really. ”

"Well, Arthas, believe it or not, I've regained control, but I want to tell you that your father is dead, and I can't use you to kill your father. ”

"What! how is this possible?" I didn't care about her aggrieved look and became angry, but soon I shook my head again, yes, although I didn't know why, but one of my own consciousness told me that my father would definitely not die, because he had been arranged for an ending, yes, a predestined ending, as if Ysera had told me, yes..."No, you lied to me, you have been lying to me all along. ”

"I never lied to you, Arthas. ”

"You still want to use me, huh..."I walked calmly towards him, my eyes were fixed on her, yes, I just wanted to tear her disguise so that I could completely lose my heart to her, but she just waited quietly for me to approach, even if I would attack her.

"Arthas, I really don't want to tell you about this result, but you have to accept the reality. ”

"Yes, I've come to terms with the reality that it's emotionally completely cheating on me. ”

"No, Arthas, I didn't deceive you—" She was already in tears of sadness, and I didn't notice any of his deception on me, and I grabbed her by the collar and lifted her off the ground, yes, I wanted her to attack me, so that I could prove everything I said, but she didn't, just looked at me and didn't put any resistance. "Let's face it! Your father was really killed in battle. ”

"Then you accept your reality first. "My anger came back at me, and my right hand didn't just grab her collar, she still didn't move... Yes, I hate her so much, but if I were to kill her with my own hands, it would be difficult for me to do so. After a few seconds, he finally let her go.

"Arthas.—" Her face was comforted, but it only lasted a few seconds, as I was still verbally suppressing her.

"Just because I refuse to kill you doesn't mean I trust you, and it doesn't mean I forgive you. As I spoke, I re-lit the torch and continued towards the door, while Sylvanas tried to stop me, but a woman who did not use force could stop me, and when I put her down, she sat down on the ground and began to weep.

"It's okay if you don't forgive me, but you can't go up, it's full of Burning Legion demons, and even the undead are unharmed. ”

"What!"

"It was the Burning Legion led by the demon leader Akmund himself that captured this place, and in less than half an hour, the whole city fell, and almost all living creatures were killed by the demons. ”

"There's no way he's coming so soon... It's impossible" I thought of something, for example, they do have such strength, but such an ending always feels very different from what they think, and they will not believe that this will be the case in their hearts and consciousness, at least they believe that their father is not dead. "No way, you're lying to me. ”

After I had pleaded my case, I felt that there was no point, so I quickened my pace in the direction of the junction, and at this moment I was stopped by her, and I did not know why I turned back, but at this moment I saw that the weapon that Faric had given me was in her hand, and pointed at me, and just when I thought she was going to do something to me, she threw it and stuck it in the ground in front of me.

"You don't believe me, but you might believe him. ”

"Yes, of course I believe in my weapons. ”

I pulled it out and continued walking, but it was at this time that I realized that the weapon was not simple, because it was now hosting the same soul, and the voice was unusually familiar.

"Thank you for trusting you, Arthas, but I think you should trust your Ranger as well. ”

"Kel'thugad!"

"If you want to know what's going on above, you'd better take a look at this. As he spoke, his soul seemed to have left the sword, and he released the teleportation and took a cloth-covered object from Sylvanas' hand. "I'll show you what's out there. ”

"You're not saying you can't use spells anymore. ”

"Yes, but I have this—" he opened the lid of the cloth, and the contents were none other than Thassarian's crystal ball, which of course foreshadowed more news.

"It's theirs, you took their relics!"

"No, I'm borrowed, and I can use the power of my colleague Crassus to show the exteriors. He pointed up, on the ground, but before that I was concerned about one thing.

"Are they still alive?"

I excited, but Kel'thugad didn't answer my question, perhaps because he knew I wouldn't be excited about it next, because, as Sylvanas said, the demons in the crystal ball were raging wildly, scrambling for countless mutilated corpses scattered on the ground, and the culprits were all kinds of ugly demons, and there were many Doomsday Guards and other flying creatures in the sky, and yes, if it weren't for the remnants of some buildings, I wouldn't have believed that he showed me the city of Lordaeron.

"Your companions may be alive, but your family has... There is no living thing in the place where the demon passes, which is more terrible than the undead. ”

Kel'thugad tried to explain, and apparently he saw my anger clearly.

"That's really the case... He really came here. Seeing this, I didn't know what to do, so I could only angrily rebuke the demon's name, "Akmund!" As soon as the words fell, the crystal ball just gave him a close-up, at this moment he was standing at the highest point of the royal city and inspecting everything around him, as if everything was under his control, nothing could hide from his eyes, yes, his eyes, likewise he seemed to be staring at me, smiling at me, I don't know if it was a matter of angle, at this time, the crystal ball shattered....

"Oh no! we've been discovered!" Kel'thugad realized something, and immediately became very nervous, it was hard to imagine that Akmund could find out that someone was using a spell to spy on him, but it didn't matter to me.

"What can I do if I find out, I have to settle accounts with him. "I didn't act as panicked as he was, I was just angry, and yes, if he was here, I wouldn't have to hide from anything. Besides, I don't have anything now.

"Before that, you have to have that quality. ”

"With that strength, it's Nesario's conscience that found out that he was all scum in front of him!"

I said this, and Sylvanas opened her mouth to dissuade me, perhaps she knew that I had been surprised by some of my promises after becoming an undead.

"Then if you think that our world cannot be saved, then how can you still think that you can achieve your own salvation!"

"You've been stalking me. ”

"Yes, after I killed you, I somehow regained my will, just like that time in Northrend..."Sylvanas wanted to say something more, but she suddenly thought of something, and gave me a reason that best persuaded me. "And Gianna, if you think there is no power to stop the leader of the Burning Legion, then you will definitely choose to fight against Kael'thas instead of sending her to the western continent to find an ally who can defeat the enemy... If you don't think there's any point in you being born, then you have to hold off time for Gianna as well, after all, they're advancing too fast, really too fast...."

"For Gianna and they..."I immediately regained my courage when I thought of this, yes, if there was anything else I could do for her, it would make sense to fight everything I had now, so I immediately turned to Kel'thugad, and did not look at Sylvanas. "I think you have a way to get out. ”

"Yes, I'll still have to rely on the power of Crassus, if the power inside doesn't radiate too much. "Kel'thugad still took out another thing from Sylvanas, the hourglass that had been given to us. Maybe I should have noticed Sylvanas' sadness at this moment, but at the moment I just cared if he could actually make it, especially when I could already hear the sound of walking on the upper floor.

"It's good, it works with me perfectly, it's like my strength. Kel'thugad reached into his empty hand, and soon felt the power and became at it with him. "Come on, Arthas, and get ready to meet old friends. “

"What old friend?" I was both excited and timid when I heard this, because I thought I would meet Gianna and them in this state, but the reality was that I saw the same undead as me.

And they were none other than Thassarian and the brothers who had become undead with me, all of them here, probably in the mountains of Alterante.

I couldn't help but sigh in my heart when I saw them, but I was still very happy to be with everyone, just like they did to me, we hugged each other, maybe this was the first time I felt excited after I became an undead, yes, there was no sense of estrangement, but there was one person who was unexpected, that was Sylvanas, she was at the far end of us, and it was her reserve that made me realize that we are in the state we are now, yes, we are not what we used to be, although everyone is yearning for something in the bottom of our hearts...

After the excitement, everyone returned to the topic, and one of the most realistic questions was in front of us.

"Your Highness Arthas, have you discussed with General Sylvanas what to do? ”

I can see that everyone has forgiven Sylvanas, maybe she has really regained her free personality, but at the moment I still have a grudge against her...

"No, I am afraid that our state will not be recognized by the world, and only through our own efforts can we prove that our current position is no different from that of our lifetime, and what we have changed now is only our appearance. ”

Although my words have been widely agreed by everyone, everyone still has their own questions.

"Well, then we're here against the Burning Legion!"

"But what power do we have to stop them?"

"Even we don't have a foothold. ”

"The alliance will also be hostile to us..."

.....

"What do you suggest?" I didn't say anything first, but asked the soul of Kel'thugad, who had his own thoughts

"Let's go to Northrend first, and I've heard that there are some of your friends there who also seem to be undead. ”

His words were actually my plan, but I started to get suspicious again, yes, I don't think there are some things that he shouldn't know, like the Anubarak thing... I have some doubts about whether he is still loyal to Naozu... That's when I wanted to ask Sylvanas, but I couldn't say anything, and after thinking for a moment, I felt that I couldn't fully trust them.

"Arthas, what are your plans?"

Kel'thugad asked, and as I turned to the soul again, I saw Sylvanas through him too, yes, this sentence and the view reminded me of the night when I saw Kel'thugad off and suggested that he go south, and I suddenly decided about it.

"Let's go south, to Blackstone Mountain, and to Medivan's Tower. "Yes, I vaguely remember that there seemed to be some foreshadowing of some answers. "Where I used to suggest you go. ”

I spoke to Kel'thugad, who hesitated for a moment before nodding his head in agreement.

"The devil will soon extend there, and we won't have an easy day ahead. ”

"Yes, I didn't think I'd make a living. ”

Our argument was over, and we had no opinions, so we all prepared to head south. Only Sylvanas, who was still standing there, looking at me, waiting for my decision on her. Yes, I've always shown acceptance of her. And I know the importance of a ranger for the whole march, of course she is not only about nature, but there are more things that she does not want to admit, yes, she does not want to admit ....

"We need your vision now, Ranger General. ”

"Yes, Your Highness, I also need your protection for the time being. ”

We sneered at each other, and then we each returned to the southbound group.
