Chapter 338: Situation
The dead are gone, and the living still need to work hard. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
Although there are no Bovar and Andy in the team, it does not mean that the team has no combat effectiveness, on the contrary, the death of the two has inspired everyone and made their fighting spirit reach a peak height.
Fording originally planned to attack the Gate of Damnation directly, although the death of the two was not directly caused by Arthas, but he could not get out of it, and they would go to the Forsaken to seek justice for the two, but before that Arthas had to be dealt with.
Alexstrasza, however, stopped Ferdin's actions, which she thought was very inappropriate. "Not to mention whether the scale and solidity of the Gate of Damnation can be breached, even if you can break through, how can you survive in Northrend without any foundation? If Arthas's counterattack holds you back, you will have only one way to lose. These are the exact words of Alexstaza.
Ferding understood what she meant, and that quick success would always be the enemy of successful combat. "But the climate and geography here are not suitable for a long-term base at all."
"When we came, there was a piece of land on the edge of Northrend to the west, which was a tundra wasteland, but fortunately it was not covered with snow and we could set up a camp." Alexstraza said, "We'll be stationed here and keep an eye on the Scourge Corps' every move. ”
Picking up his mood, Furding returned to his battleship with all the remaining troops, heading towards the tundra wasteland called the Borean Tundra that Alexstasa had spoken.
The Borean Tundra is actually an ideal place to build a base for a long time, far from the cold areas of the Northrend core, and although the temperature is very low, there is no snow, and the surrounding sea is not as much ice floe.
Building a fortress on the land, even if it is hard frozen soil, is much better than snow-covered ice. The dusky scenery of the boredang tundra gradually came into view, and it was really a wasteland, as Alekstaza said.
Fording chose a low-lying and gentle slope to land on the shore, and the view was endless desolation, which was in stark contrast to the snow-capped mountains and glaciers in the distance.
"Embark on the shore and build a port here." Fording turned back and shouted at the boat, and then walked inland with Morgan.
The warriors were very efficient, and although the wasteland was desolate, there were some woods, but they were all withered. The warriors cut down the dead branches, leaving only the trunk open, but fortunately there were no signs of insect damage or decay.
Once the port is built, all the warships will be parked here, and these giants of the sea will not be used in a short time.
Tents large and small were erected over the moor, and the curtains were whistling from the winds blowing from the sea. Furding, who had walked back in a circle, glanced at the tents and shook his head helplessly. At this stage, they can only build a simple camp, and if they have the opportunity to do so, they will have to build a fortress here to serve as the basis for the strategic plan of the Northrend continent.
Thrall had set up a tribal camp not far from the Alliance camp, and he didn't dare to get too close to it. Although the two sides are now in a period of peace, the hatred between the two sides still exists, and no one dares to guarantee that nothing will happen.
The most important thing to do everywhere is to find out what is around you and what special circumstances there are, and Fording is no exception, he sends out scouts early in the morning and explores every corner of the wasteland every day.
The Coalition has worked hard to establish a stronghold in the Borean tundra, hoping to gain a foothold there, and then they will once again slaughter the Gate of Damnation and make Arthas confess his guilt and submit to his sentence.
The Red Dragon Queen, Alexstasa, led her people to build a tower facing the Gate of Damnation. No one knows how they built this tower, and just by looking at the stones, you can imagine what a big project it was.
After the tower was erected, Alexstasa and Crassus stood at the top of the tower every day, looking at the Gate of Damnation in the distance. Alexstasa called the ice-covered plain the Dragonbone Plains, and the tower was named the Temple of the Dragon's Sleep.
The arrival of the expeditionary force has brought a glimmer of life to the whole of Northrend, and the local area is no longer as lifeless as before.
Behind the Gate of Damnation is a vast mountainous area, and Arthas is on its way to his fortress. Underneath his arm, a thin body was sandwiched.
He seemed to have lost consciousness and had no sense of what he was in. If he could wake up at this time, then he must have been shocked to see how easy it was to get in and out of this seemingly impregnable ice fortress.
This man is Andy, who was attacked by the Forsaken that day, and Andy eventually failed to resist the plague toxin and passed out. When Arthas withdrew from the Gate of Damnation, he brought Andy into the Gate of Damnation.
If it weren't for Artsace pulling Andy in the door at the last minute, he would now be the same as Bolvar, and there would be no scum left from the fire of Alexstraza.
Although he did not die directly, it does not mean that he is fine. That variant of the plague toxin was very domineering, and the speed with which it worked was simply outrageous. At this time, the toxins he inhaled were raging in his body, making him suffer and suffer all the time.
Arthas dragged Andy's body, walked back to the Ice Throne step by step, threw Andy to the ground at will, sat on the throne with his butt closed, and silently felt the changes in his body with his eyes closed.
Arthas is not a living being, but the toxins have an effect on him, but unlike the others, he can slowly dissolve them. It's a bit harder, but it's also a matter of time.
He doesn't care about Andy's life or death, it makes no difference to him whether he dies or not, he wants to transform Andy into a death knight like Mograini. In fact, it is much easier to transform the corpse after death, but the strength of that kind of death knight is relatively weak, but in the current situation, I am afraid that it is more difficult to keep Andy alive than to transform him into a death knight.
"Ahh Andy slowly opened his eyes, the sharp pain in his chest and abdomen that made him almost suffocate. He was sore and limp, and he struggled to lift one of his palms, but what he saw was a palm that was no longer bloodless, and the muscles under his skin had begun to melt and rot.
Andy let out a helpless wail, if he became the appearance of those undead, it would be better to kill him directly, and the province would hate himself.
"Are you awake?" Arthas's cold voice reached Andy's ears.
"Arthas!" Andy twisted his head, causing him to gasp in pain, "You got me here?" ”
"Hmph, if it weren't for me, you would have died outside." Arthas was expressionless.
"What do you want to do?" Andy has lost his ability to resist and can do whatever he wants to do to him.
"To save your life, I'm going to turn you into a death knight, so you will have eternal life and infinite power!" Arthas stood up, the toxins in his body almost gone.
"What? A Death Knight like Mograine? Andy was shocked and couldn't help but shout, "Then you might as well kill me!" ”
