In the previous swift battle, it took a night for some of the most elite troops of the orcs to make a surprise attack on Dalaran and Alterac.

But their largest forces attacked Stormwind from the Cursed Lands to Stormwind, and the Alliance's well-prepared efforts allowed Turayan and the others to fend off the orcs before the Horde arrived, and did not threaten the city of Stormwind.

Perhaps the alliance should have been without any failures in this battle, but no one expected that the attack launched by the Horde on the frontal battlefield with countless soldiers would be a feint, but the real purpose was to steal the treasure from several other troops.

With Deathwing's intervention, they easily succeeded.

This is the main reason why Tulayan was angry at the meeting in Lordaeron - that humanity had been deceived.

After Tulayan and the others went to fight in Draenor, Kael'thas received a request from Antonidas a few months later.

"Draenor?"

He let out a cry of surprise.

Kael'thas would never have expected Antonidas to ask him to go to Draenor.

He knew the outcome, the expeditionary force would destroy the Dark Gate in Draenor, and then all stay there until decades later the world could be reconnected.

[Damn, I don't want to go!] 】

Kael'thas thought so, but Antonidas's subsequent explanation dispelled him.

He wasn't sent to Draenor to fight, but to retrieve a few treasures.

It is said that the Skull of Gul'dan was obtained by Deathwing after being sucked some energy, and then he fought the expeditionary force and a demigod of Draenor, and the Skull of Gul'dan was also obtained by Khadgar when Deathwing left.

The expeditionary force was not worried about the others, so they asked Dalaran to send someone to retrieve the treasure.

Kael'thas, as the person who worked with Tulayan and them, was naturally chosen by Antonidas.

"Okay."

Kael'thas took on the task, as he remembered that the Skull of Gul'dan had returned to this world before the destruction of the Dark Gate, and he wanted to see if the war there was the same as history.

He walked out of Violet Castle and left with some elves.

The last battle didn't do much damage to Dalaran, much to Kael'thas feeling a bit of a fluke.

To be honest, although Dalaran is known as the Magic Kingdom, except for a few powerful mages, the rest are ordinary mages.

There are more than a thousand members of Kenrito, and the membership qualification is high-level professionals, although not all high-level mages have entered Kenrito, but it is enough to prove the pyramid structure of the city.

Most of them are low- and mid-level mages, and the high-level are elite—a city that seems powerful but is actually vulnerable.

The mages thought they were gifted, but they weren't much different from other professions in the outside world.

Most of the outside world is civilian, and Dalaran is almost all mages, perhaps this is the reason for the contrast.

But the number of people in any human country outside is dozens of times that of Dalaran, and the number of professionals in it is also quite a lot, if you really talk about strength, Dalaran has no advantage.

Well, it is possible to make food with magic to get rid of hard labor, and war does not require much logistics, which is Dalaran's greatest advantage.

Kael'thas passed through Stormwind on his way, and he remembered to go in and ask Varian to help him find some weapons.

He spent another night in Stormwind for nothing, and the next morning he arrived at the Dark Gate.

The vast Dark Gate stood silently in the desolate land, and the bases that had been killed by the orc invasion were re-established with more soldiers.

Kael'thas came to the foot of the Dark Gate under the gaze of the soldiers, and stepped inside.

It seemed to be a flower in front of him, and when he opened his eyes again, it was a completely different scene in front of Kael'thas and the others.

The desolate and boundless land lasted for hundreds of meters of battle.

The orc homeland known as Draenor had long since been consumed by the power of the Shadows, but it had not yet been shattered to the point of floating in the void like the afterlife.

It's still a whole planet.

However, Kael'thas didn't have time to appreciate the exotic atmosphere at all, and the human officer with a hurried expression ran over.

"His Highness Kael'thas !"

The officer saluted Kael'thas and led him to the camp without saying a word.

The Dark Gate's side seems to belong to the Alliance, and they have established a command post that is large enough.

Kael'thas saw all the familiar people in this command post.

Tulayan, Khadga, Danas, Kudran.

The leaders of the four alliances were all happy to see Kael'thas coming.

"Need my help?"

Kael'thas asked with a smile.

"It doesn't seem to be needed, we just made a decision."

Tulayan shook his head, then looked at Kael'thas solemnly:

"Your Highness, you can bring the things back to Dalaran."

Khadgar took the package from the side and handed it to Kael'thas.

Unexpectedly, there was a book in addition to Gul'dan's Skull.

"You've got two back."

Kael'thas naturally knew that this book was even the Book of Medivan, and he was a little surprised.

"Yes, we got two, but unfortunately the most important scepter couldn't be retrieved."

Tulayan's expression was a little dark.

It seems that they didn't succeed in their mission, and the fact that the Scepter of Sargeras is still in Neozu's hand means that this orc warlock can open more dark doors.

"And the timecode?"

Kael'thas asked, somewhat cautiously.

Of course, he got a shake of his head in unison.

"Your Highness Kael'thas, this world is huge, and we've been to other places for the past few months."

"And now do you see the war out there? The battle returned to its original point, as Neozu had released his large army, and the ceremony would take place in a few days. ”

Tulayan briefly explained the situation to Kael'thas.

The situation was worse than Kael'thas had imagined.

"Time is too short, and we don't have the certainty of victory to stop Naozu's actions, so we just met and made a decision."

"If we can't stop that evil warlock, we'll destroy the Dark Gate from here, so they can't invade Azeroth again!"

The heroes of several alliances made shocking decisions without changing their faces.

Kael'thas didn't know what Tulayan had been through, but it was clear that the men had mastered the means to destroy the Dark Gate.

It is exactly the same choice as history, a respectable choice, and a single-minded choice of sacrificing oneself.
