Karthas returned to Pearl City on the fourth day after the Call Girl left. Angel Burning was the first to notice the lich that had emerged from the teleportation beacon, and she could clearly feel that this lich was several times stronger than when he left.
"You look like you've found the treasure, Carl." Burning Heart said in surprise.
Karthas asked, "What about the commander?" I couldn't sense him. ”
"They went on an expedition." Tell him about Gilneth and Jiang Weihan's actions.
"Hmm...... I know. Karthas nodded.
The alliance meeting has ended, and the agreed result is the same as Jiang Weihan expected, the alliance has decided to shrink its defenses and at the same time step up reconnaissance. Burning Wood left some of its troops to monitor the Gilneth Scourge, while the rest of the army was scattered across the major cities of Lordaeron to prepare for an invasion that could happen at any time.
Every town is now equipped with a plague antidote that has been created on a large scale, which now makes people not have to worry about getting infected by eating something unclean. Without the threat of the plague, the only means of natural disasters is to attack by force. As long as you take precautions, the damage will be greatly reduced.
This would be the safest strategy.
"I'm going to Northrend." Karthas approached Svein and told him about his decision.
"Must go?"
"Yes."
"But do you know the way?"
With Karthas flying back from the Endless Sea, there is a way to find his way to Northrend.
But before leaving, he had one more thing to do. After his strength was greatly restored, he was already able to cast many spells that he could not cast when he first came to this world.
Karthas with the power of the artifact Eye of Sargeras. Stretch your mind infinitely. As a lich, his out-of-body experience is much easier and more powerful than Jiang Weihan.
The will of the Lich King Nao Zu can cross two continents and tens of thousands of kilometers to influence others, and although the current Karthhas can't do that, it won't be too far behind. A day later. Based on his special ability to sense souls, he has found his target - the floating city of the Scourge Legion, Naxxramas ruled by the necromancer Darkan!
The Alliance Search Force had been searching hard before, but no one could have imagined that it would now be quietly suspended in the sky over Hinterland. After completing the raid on Gilneys, the floating fortress flew all the way from the sea. From Hillsbrad to Arathi Heights, they walk day and night every day, and during the day they are close to the ground and hidden. Without Karthus, it would never have been found.
The next day, Kutch personally led the Screaming Serpent helicopter team out of the nest, following Karthas's instructions. Sure enough, they found Naxxramas hidden there among the mountains of eastern Hinterland.
This news finally relieved all the forces of the alliance. Ever since the disappearance of Naxxramas, everyone in Lordaeron has been on the lookout. Fear that one night, the Scourge Legion's flying fortress will quietly descend on their city, and hundreds of thousands of heavenly armies will pour out and wipe out all the living.
Unable to determine its location, everyone would involuntarily suspect that it was above their heads, so Jiang Weihan's Northern Expedition was opposed by most of the kings. Because no one wanted this terrifying floating fortress to come and they would be slaughtered without resistance.
Now it is exposed to the eye. Most of the griffin riders in Eagle's Nest Mountain, as well as the helicopter brigade in Pearl City, watched it day and night, leaving it completely hidden. Even if there is no means to deal with it for the time being. But everyone can finally put their minds at ease and calmly lay out their own strategies.
And when the kings rejoiced, they discovered that the hero of the scourge had left Lordaeron and went to Northrend alone.
The alchemist Singid lost the opportunity to communicate with the lich again, so he could only complain to Karthas for a while, and silently went back to the real yàn room to continue his research on the plague against the natural disaster.
――
Jiang Weihan has always remembered a historical episode. That is, Arthas reached Icecrown Glacier through the underground passage built by the Spider-Man Kingdom of Guò under the leadership of the Cryptlord Anubrak.
Now that Anubarak is dead, even if he doesn't die, he will only be his enemy. However, he found a small number of Spider-Men in the coalition forces of the Silver Covenant. He immediately had the idea of letting Spider-Man lead the way. That will save you a lot of trouble.
These spider-men are terrifying-looking. The lower body is a spider, and the upper body is close to a humanoid. However, the face is still more like a spider. They have a long history and advanced civilization, and their literary and artistic standards are very high, but these are almost all lost in the war against the Lich King Neozu. Anubrak was the king of the Spider-Man kingdom of Eldraine Nirub during his lifetime, and after his death, the Spider-Man was completely defeated, and most of them turned into undead monsters with him to fight for the Lich King. What Jiang Weihan saw were very few survivors who joined the Silver Covenant.
"There is such a passage." Spider-Man leader Kyrix replied, "But there are many parts of this road that have collapsed due to the last Naxxramas liftoff, and they need to be cleared before they can be used. ”
"How long will that take?"
"About forty days."
This answer disappointed Jiang Weihan, and when the cleanup was completed, it would be too late.
"Let's hope Lexus will be useful!" Jiang Weihan prayed.
He prepares to summon the Void Retreat Beast, Rex, the queen of the Void creatures of the Axel, who is especially adept at making holes.
However, Jiang Weihan couldn't make any associations between a Void beast with a mouth about the size of a head, full of fangs, and a pair of crab-like forelimbs with women.
Rexey can't speak. She only makes high-pitched or terrifying screams, but she can convey her meaning through her mind and fully understand people's words. Although she is the body of a beast, she is by no means lacking in intelligence, even smarter than many people, and more dangerous than humans.
"Rexey, can the tunnel you opened allow us to pass through guò?" Jiang Weihan hurriedly asked the question he was most concerned about.
'If you need it, Commander. His mind was directly reminded of Lexie's voice. It was a female voice, which reminded him that the beast in front of him was indeed a female.
So he turned to the Spider-Man leader Kiricus: "Okay, no problem, please lead the way!" ”
Kyrix's attention had been on Lexie, and when he saw this strange void creature, he couldn't help but admire, "It's so beautiful and powerful! ”
'You're very discerning. Rexey responded.
"You've got a lot of vision." Jiang Weihan gave a thumbs up.

Led by Spider-Man, this small expedition led by Jiang Weihan went deep into the underground city of Eldraine Nilub and began a journey to the Icecrown Glacier, the old nest of Naozu. At this time, Prince Liam was busy searching for the artifact that would grant him infinite power, Frost Sorrow.
Liam had a dream after accidentally falling asleep last night that he pulled out the sword in the ice. It's like it was made for him, the length, the weight, the balance, the grip, everything was perfect. He dreamed that he was back in Gilneth, and that the power of Excalibur had brought her back up from the ground on the same hillside where "White" had fallen into the valley and had been badly injured.
He rode on the white and galloped freely across the land of Gilneis. Whiteness will never be tired or hurt again, and Frost's Sorrow will make him invincible, and all his enemies will fall to his sword.
He was invincible, and thousands of people excitedly shouted "Liam the King" and "Liam the King".
When he woke up, he realized it was a dream. But it was so real, so real that Liam believed that as long as he got that sword, he would really achieve the qiē of his dreams!
"Your Highness, Your Highness!" Lord Hevel came to his tent with a smile on his face, "Winlessa. Windranger is coming! ”
"Well, I'll tidy it up, and you'll bring her to me in a few minutes." Liam replied.
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Neither of them realized that Winlessa had long been more than just a little High Elf Ranger. She was now the nominal supreme commander of the Silver Covenant's 10,000-strong army.
And Liam didn't fully realize that he was a traitor to the Alliance. Except for the hundreds of people who followed him, no one would have revered his status as Prince Gilneys.
What's more, Wen Lesa knew on the way to the "merits" of this prince.
"Tell Liam, it's not me who wants to see him, but I want him to come to see me! Do you understand? At this time, Wen Leisa's expression and tone interpreted the word pride vividly.
Lord Hervel's face turned blue and red, and he couldn't help but ask, "Wen Leisa, you seem to have mistaken your identity!" ”
"Really?" Wen Lesa sneered, her silver eyes looking directly at the other party, "I'm afraid some people haven't figured out their identity!" ”
Winlessa's merciless taunts made Herwell immediately realize that they were afraid that their deeds had been exposed.
He let out a cold sweat, his face turned pale, and he pretended to be confused, "I don't understand what you mean, Miss Winlessa. ”
"Then you tell Liam to come over, I think he'll understand." Wen Lesa stared at him, "Go! ”
Herwell had almost fled back to the Gilneth Army camp. He rushed into Liam's tent despite the faux pas, and said in a panic: "Oh no, Your Highness! They got it! ”
Liam immediately stood up, he had not yet received the Frost Grief and had no intention of fighting the army of the Silver Covenant.
He seems to have been self-defeating. Knowing this, it would have been better to take only the loyal Gilnesian guards.
"What should I do?" Hevers was sweating profusely.
'To the west,' the voice rang in Liam's head.
It was the voice that had been guiding him.
"To the west!" Liam ordered.
Just outside the camp, the Gilneth Army and the Silver Covenant Army, which had been enjoying themselves yesterday, were now in tension, and both sides were in formation in the clearing, ready to fight. War is on the verge of breaking out.
The heroic Wen Lesa walked to the front of the battle and shouted, "Liam, when are you going to hide!" (To be continued)
