Chapter 506: Grievances
Seeing the Red Dragon Queen honestly put the scabbard back in the drawer, whispering the words attached to the portrait one by one from the beginning, Arthas nodded reassuringly, and then pulled Frost Sorrow, who was still silent, out of the hall.
As soon as he left the hall and turned the corner of the hallway, Frost Sorrow suddenly rushed in front of Arthas, his hands outstretched, blocking Arthas's path.
"Master, you can't go see that Putres!" Frost Sorrow said loudly, a nervous look on her face.
Putress ...... This familiar name evokes memories of Alsace for a long time.
In the original stream of time, Arthas had known Putress at a very young age, and at that time, Putress had been appointed by the royal family of Lordan Lenminehir to serve the royal family.
Putress is an expert in alchemy, but he is not a mage, just an ordinary person with a great interest in the subject.
As a child, Khadgar spent time in Lordaeron's palace as his Potions Initiation teacher, and the mage of Dalaran and the apprentice of Medivan the Guardian praised Putres's vast knowledge of potions and alchemy, as well as his endless variety of new ideas.
Of course, King Terenas was not as interested in Putres as Khadgar, and for His Majesty, Putres was simply a scholar raised by the royal family, to show the Minahir family's respect for scholars and earn some good reviews for the royal family. In fact, the royal family didn't ask too much about the potions made by this alchemist.
The intersection between Alsace and Putres came together mainly after the latter's death – yes. It's after death.
While Arthas, who had fallen into darkness, led an army of kings into the royal city of Lordaeron, Putress died in the war - ghouls and zombies didn't care whether it was a beautiful girl or a learned scholar who died under their minions.
But Putress wasn't completely dead – he was resurrected by Arthas and stood up again as a zombie.
I don't know if it was due to some kind of special potion that he had taken before he died—Arthas thought it must have been, otherwise it would be impossible to explain why Putress had a consciousness of his own as a carrion zombie.
After the awakening and reawakening of Alsace to the sorrow of the frost. He traveled as far as Lordaeron, slain Neozu, and became the new Lich King.
During this time. A large number of undead have broken free from the Lich King's shackles - both the former and current Lich Kings, the most powerful of which is Sylvanas, who was resurrected by Arthas as the Banshee King? The most knowledgeable of the Windrangers is undoubtedly Putres.
Because of the same reason as the Lord of the Dead. Arthas was able to obtain information about the faction called the Forsaken that Sylvanas had founded.
Sylvanas founded an organization called the Royal Society of Apothecaries. used to study terrible poisons and plagues; The former Arthas scoffed at this, but it wasn't until much later that he understood the horror of the organization.
Putress was not the president of the Royal Society of Apothecaries, but his profound knowledge of alchemy made him a central figure in the organization, from "Master Putress" to "Grand Apothecary Putress".
Perhaps out of gratitude to the royal family of Lordaeron, or out of sympathy for the people of the royal city of Lordaeron, or out of extreme anger at his own death, Ptres became extremely hostile to Arthas. And Arthas, when he reunited with Putress many years later, knew the power of the great apothecary's anger.
The Gate of Damnation, the home of Arthas and Frostmourn in Lordaeron, a fortress forged from the iron of Saron and millennia of ice. The gates of Icecrown Fortress.
When the coalition forces of the Alliance and the Horde attacked the area, Arthas went there to see the excitement with the mindset of wanting to see how the Alliance and the Horde with blood feuds came together because of their own heinous villains.
At the Gate of Damnation, Arthas met many acquaintances, but the scene of the Alliance and the Horde in harmony that he wanted to see did not materialize.
In that war, Putress frantically unleashed a plague attack on his allies, including the Alliance and the Horde, as well as the Scourge Legion.
The corpses wrapped in the plague and the oil canisters filled with the green liquid that grew the plague were thrown by the catapult into the center of the battlefield, and they exploded in the middle of the battlefield.
At first, Arthas was still standing on the sidelines watching the excitement, knowing that the Scourge was not affected by the plague, and that Putress was only killing his own allies - oh no, it should be used here, because Putress was also a dead man at this time.
But what happened next surprised Arthas, and the plague easily killed the dead once more - the stitchtails, ghouls, and lichs of Arthas's men fell into the green cloud that the plague had spread.
Of course, also in that green smoke fell to the ground and twitched until they died.
Arthas dodged the fog - he knew that if the plague could harm the other undead, it would be the same for himself - after all, without Frostmourn, Arthas might not have been as powerful as a stitch monster as large as Patchwick.
The problem is Frost Sorrow - whenever such a moment comes, the Little Demon Sword will greedily suck/suck the souls of the dead that have covered the sky above the battlefield.
This time, however, Frost's sad actions took a toll on Arthas.
Arthas still doesn't know how Putress managed to incorporate the power of the Curse into the Plague, because in his opinion, they were two completely different powers.
But Putress did just that, and Frost Sorrow, who had absorbed a large number of souls, was unexpectedly cursed.
Sorrow, which is as powerful as frost, is naturally not afraid of curses, but Arthas, who is connected to her soul, is not immune.
Cursed, Arthas soon felt the loss of his power, and he had to flee the battlefield, closing the gates of damnation tightly; The damage inflicted on him by the curse kept him from regaining his power until the combined forces of the Alliance and the Horde breached the Gate of Damnation, wiping out most of Arthas's men, and approaching his and Frostmourn's bedroom on the top floor of the Icecrown Fortress, the massive room carved around the Frozen Throne.
