When Lordaeron's army decisively addressed the threat of Naxxramas, the expeditionary force of the Northern Expedition to Northrend finally reached its destination.

The Supreme Commander-in-Chief of the Northern Expeditionary Army was Dai Lin. Admiral Prodmore. In the last Battle of Gilneth, Prince Liam's rebellion resulted in the loss of the Kultilas navy. However, on this expedition, he still took out a hundred warships, plus eighty ships from the Lordaeron Kingdom, fifty ships from the Stormgard Kingdom, sixty ships from the Stormwind Kingdom, fifty ships from the Valoran Federation, fifty ships from the High Elves, and other countries and forces, piecing together nearly five hundred warships, carrying 120,000 elite troops of the Alliance on the Northern Expedition.

It was the largest cross-sea expedition in human history, and arguably the largest naval operation in Azeroth's history. Warsong Clan Chief Grom. Hellroar is also the Horde's high-ranking Overseer, and is also ordered by Grand Chief Thrall to lead 10,000 orc warriors to follow the Alliance.

The expeditionary force set out from the North Sea docks in Lordaeron, and after nearly twenty days at sea, it has finally arrived at its destination. If you take the old waterway that was opened up before and land at the dreadnought fortress in Zhiyuan County, the voyage will be increased by at least ten days. However, after the Silver Covenant and the Orc Advance Team's reconnaissance of Northrend, they found that the voyage from Lordaeron to Howling Fjord was nearly half as short as it was to the Borean tundra. However, considering that there was no suitable port and dock in Howling Fjord, Daelin finally chose to land at the port expanded by the Walrus of Grizzly Hills and the Good Luck Sister.

When the fleet arrived at the port, Dahlin was pleasantly surprised to find that his flagship, the Spirit, and two other warships that had been stolen by Liam were also anchored in the harbor. They are well maintained and look the same as before. This discovery immediately made him feel much better.

A herd of Caruillac walrus people guided them to the shore.

"What about Wenlesa and Ronin?" Varok. Sarufar came ashore and found an old walrus man and asked straight to the point. He noticed that all that were left in the harbor were old and infirm, women and children. There were hardly any strong fighters in sight.

"The Great General is going to take the warriors to attack the Viku fortress today!" The walrus people were both happy and shocked to see such a large navy coming—all the forces and all the ships of their walrus people combined were probably less than one-tenth of the size of this large fleet, right? Although they have never been to the League, they now have confidence in the Alliance.

When Dai Lin learned of this operation, he immediately decided: "They may need support. The front in the northern part of the Grizzly Hills cannot be abandoned either, and this will be the bridgehead of our offensive. Alsace. The task of supporting the northern front of Grizzly Hills has been entrusted to you, are you up to the task? He looked at Prince Lordaeron.

After that league meeting, the young prince became unusually silent and unusually hard. He seemed to want to prove to everyone that he would never go down that path. Just like Kael'thas, they all began to actively express themselves. Fight every chance to fight against natural disasters.

So Kael'thas joined the forces attacking Naxxramas; Arthas, on the other hand, joins the Expeditionary Force and goes head-to-head with the Lich King's army!

"I can." Alsace's firm voice was cold and determined.

"You have to listen to the two generals, Gather and Walden, and don't act recklessly." Dai Lin commanded, and after thinking about it, he still didn't feel at ease. Another person with enough prestige to remind Arthas when he was irrational - "Uther, my old friend, you should also go to the Northern Front!" Hopefully, your experience will help Alsace grow faster. ”

"Yes, Commander-in-Chief!" Uther saluted him.

"The others followed me." Daelin looked at Ash, the leader of the Valoran coalition, and Haduron of the High Elves. Mingyi, both indicating to follow, looked at Grom one last time, his eyes full of scrutiny, "Orc." Do you want to rest? ”

This should have been a word of concern. But because of Dalin's distrust of the orcs, he was reluctant to act with this group of green-skinned beasts, and wanted to leave the other party; And Grom is an extremely arrogant man. He immediately stood up and roared loudly, "We orcs are braver and tougher than you!" We don't need to rest, human! ”

Dai Lin said contemptuously: "Then prove it to me." ”

Grom gripped the hilt of Bloodroar's axe with one hand, a dangerous glint in his eyes. This made the rest of the alliance nervous, and they even suspected that the other side might make a rout here again - who would have thought that an orc would have something on his head?

"Lead the way!" Grom stepped out of his seat and strode out of the conference room.

――

For this raid, the Silver Covenant did not hesitate to draw all its forces. Form an army of more than 10,000 people. Weensa, Ronin, Sejuani, Volibel, Lisandro, and Nazgorin, each of these heroes led their armies through the main gate into the castle of Utgard of the Viku people. Kill the other party by surprise.

The Viku are generally around nine feet tall and have the blood of half-giants. Strong and savage. Most humans and orcs are only about six feet tall. In terms of physique and strength. The Viku people have an absolute advantage.

These primitive Viku people are extremely warlike and extremely cruel. At first, the Silver Covenant's raid yielded good results, but when the other side rallied from the panic, they began to struggle. Hordes of Viku warriors rushed out of the castle with weapons in their arms, fighting the raiders in a desperate fight.

Winlessa shot an arrow through the head of a Viku, saving a Frostvein Dwarven warrior in danger. Not far away, Luo Ning finished chanting the spell and issued an arcane spell, which split into two, two into four, and four into eight in the air, each hitting a target. The blast of arcane energy killed all the Viku in a small area.

However, his spells attract the attention of his enemies. Not far away, a Viku warrior aimed at him, throwing his javelin at him. The javelins tore through the air with the sheer power of the Viku people, and let out a terrible scream. Winnice's pointed ears allowed her to catch the javelin's trajectory in the first place. In a hurry, she shot an arrow at the fastest speed in her life. The arrow did hit the javelin in mid-air, but it snapped immediately after hitting it, and the weak force after the collision only slightly deflected the javelin.

As a top Ranger. Winlessa's eyesight is very good. She immediately judged that the javelin could still stab Ronin in the right chest.

"Ronin!" Winlessa shouted. However, even if Luo Ning saw this scene, he didn't have time to complete the protective spell, so he only leaned slightly to the left, trying to avoid the vital point.

"Bang!" Seeing that the javelin was about to reach its body, a lock suddenly flew out next to it. Hit the javelin's shaft accurately, wrapping it around and carrying it to the other side. Ronin was shocked, and turned his head to see Sejuani who had stopped.

The haughty matriarch didn't even look at him, but rode her steel mane and struck the crowd of enemies.

“…… Thank you. Luo Ning still spoke.

Wen Lesa ran over, grabbed him and asked urgently, "Are you okay?" Ronin? ”

"It's okay, I'm not hurt." Ronin shrugged his shoulders and pretended to be relaxed. But it was really a thrilling scene just now, and if something went wrong, his life might be lost. Only now did he realize that he was in a cold sweat.

He's going to take out his anger on these enemies! Especially the Viku guy who had just sneaked up on him!

It's just from this moment. There was clear resistance to the attack of the Silver Covenant. The Viku are killing more and more, and there are fewer and fewer warriors around them. Most of the warriors were unable to stand alone against the Vikus, and only when they were assembled in formation could they gain an advantage in numbers. However, now they are losing their biggest advantage.

At this moment, a spider-man ran from the direction of Lisandro and Nazgorin on the other side, and hurriedly said to Winlessa, "General, there are dragon knights of the Viku people on our side!" ”

"Dragon Knight?" Wen Lesa was shocked, and she saw the same look in Luo Ning's eyes.

"Primordial Dragons, they ride Primordial Dragons."

"It seems...... It's time for us to retreat. ”

Winresa asked the Spider-Man to convey the order to retreat to the troops on the other side at the same time. She herself, along with Ronin and Sejuani, led the most elite warriors at the front. The tide turned in an instant. They became the attacked side, and the Viku became the attacking side. However, due to the complex environment inside Utgard Castle, this caused great difficulties for their attack before. Now it facilitates their retreat.

However, as they were about to withdraw from the castle, news came from the rear troops that was worse than the appearance of the dragon knights: they were surrounded, a scourge, and a flying fortress of the scourge appeared on the only way out of the castle.

Why did the Flying Fortress of the Scourges appear today?

After recent observations, the Scouts of Weenlessa concluded that the Scourge only came once every four or five days. Yesterday, the Scourge Fortress had just taken a new batch of Viku warriors to Icecrown to transform them into undead warriors. But why did the floating fortress appear today, and it appeared so timely and so deadly?

Don't...... Did the Lich King expect this again?

In fact, the Lich King didn't expect this. Although after merging with Darkan. Nao Zu became stronger, but his mental power did not increase as a result. On the contrary, there is a decrease in it. Only when the Helm of Domination is frozen in the eternal ice can the spirit of Nao Zu be magnified countless times. When Darkan wears a helmet, this characteristic is reduced a lot. And because Arthas wore the same Helmet of Domination. It is also an artifact that governs all natural disasters. This inevitably creates a distraction between the two.

Fortunately, there was an order from Akmund, and now Arthas was still under Darkan's command. If Arthas disobeyed, there was nothing Darkan could do to stop them from taking away some of the Scourge soldiers who were loyal to him.

What's more, after the Battle of the Frozen Throne, Nozdom was seriously injured, and he had no ability to restore the future that was blinded by Jiang Weihan. Naturally, it is impossible for strong people like Naozu and Medivan to peek into the secrets of the future.

The previous one who came to Utgard Castle to transport the Viku warriors was Tarlamas, the floating fortress of the Cursed Sect. It just left yesterday. And the one that suddenly arrived today is the Blackebon Fortress of Acherus, the floating fortress of the Death Knights. Now it's Brooks. Sarufar's flagship.

The reason why it appeared here was solely because of the actions taken against Naxxramas on the continent of Lordaeron. The Scourge discovers that their largest floating fortress has lost contact and realizes that it has crashed. Jill guessed that the freed Coalition would inevitably send more troops to fight them. Maybe it's to join forces to kill the Gilneth scourge, or maybe it's to cross the sea to Northrend. Either way, natural disasters will face a more severe test.

So Alsace speeded up the conversion of the Vikus. That's why Blackebon Fortress was sent to send more of the Viku to Icecrown.

The Silver Covenant's raid coincided with this scene. It can only be said that it is providential.

The warriors of the Silver Covenant crowded the bridge outside the castle, with the Scourge elite emerging from the Blackebon Fortress in front and the barbarian Viku in the Utgard Castle behind, surrounded by cliffs and hundred-foot-high waterfalls, with no way out. Such a high waterfall. There is little difference between diving and cliff jumping.

As the supreme commander of the Silver Covenant, Wenlesa's heart was full of despair. The warriors around her looked at her, as well as the heroes around her, waiting for orders.

She saw in their eyes anticipation and fear, hope and despair. The warriors must have hoped that she would show her a way out. But she had no idea where she was going to live.

Winlessa knew she had to say something to give the fighters a little hope. But she opened her mouth and found that she didn't know what to say to boost morale.

At this time, a pair of gentle hands held her hand, and the characteristic warmth calmed her. She saw Ronin's gentle and encouraging gaze, and Wallybell's fearless eyes. See the ever-calm Lisandro and the indifferent and arrogant Sejuani, as well as the orc warrior Nazgorin who is still fighting in a desperate situation.

"Valiant warriors of the Silver Covenant!" Winlessa jumped onto the pier and stood high looking at the soldiers around her. Her figure immediately caught everyone's attention, "The natural calamity and its minions are raging on the land, they are destroying the beauty, happiness and light of the human world, and spreading fear, plague and despair to the world of the living. ”

"We are all people who are unwilling to succumb to the darkness."

"All of them. Humans, Elves, Orcs, Nebrus, Walrus, Spider-Men, Dwarves, Bearmen...... We have come together for the same ideal, for the Legion of the Scourge to fight against the Scourge. ”

"Today, our blood will also come together. It will cleanse the sins of natural disasters. And our Heroic Spirits will continue to guard our land! ”

"Maybe we're all going to die here."

"But we will not give in!"

All the warriors of the Silver Covenant raised their arms and shouted, "Never give in!" Never give in! Never give in! ”

On the other side of the bridge, however, a strong orc death knight rode out on a skeletal warhorse, and in a rough voice taunted loudly, "Your blood will not cleanse you from any evil. When you die. Nor will your Heroic Spirits guard the land. You will be resurrected as Scourge soldiers and give your second life for the great cause of the Lich King! ”

"The language of motivation is useless. I can't wait to see you transform into a natural disaster and take revenge on the living world. Brooks laughed maniacally, "Your morale-boosting measures are useless!" Winresa, Ronin, Sejuani, Lisandro, you are destined to serve the Scourge Legion! ”

"Brox!" Nazgorin stepped forward, his red eyes staring at the orc warrior he once revered, "You are a disgrace to the orcs!" ”

Brooks sneered, "You think I'll care about the glory of that ridiculous race? I was born for natural disasters! ”

Winlessa pointed in the direction of the Scourge Legion. Shouted: "Charge at the Scourge Legion!" ”

“loktar-oga!” Nazgorin let out an earth-shattering roar and fearlessly charged at the Scourge with more than a hundred orc warriors.

"For the Alliance!" Captain Brad, a Lordaeron officer, followed with a shout.

"For the Silver Covenant!"

"For Freljord!"

The charging team shouted different slogans. But they're all facing the same goal - the Scourge Legion!

"Get out, Winlessa!" Ronin hugged Wen Leisa's soft body tightly. Then he took her shoulders and admonished her earnestly.

"Luo Ning, you-"

"Lisandro and I have more important things to do. Don't worry. We will make it! ”

Wen Lesa only felt a sour nose, she guessed what the two mages wanted to do, she knew what her lover thought, the words of persuasion were swallowed back, and a thousand words were only left with the last affectionate gaze and the sentence "take care".

Here Ronin and Winlessa parted, and he bucked the crowd that charged forward, in the direction of Lisandro.

"The time for warmth is over, little friend." Lisandro's emotionless voice came.

Luo Ning couldn't help but say, "You are very old? ”

"I was older than you a thousand years ago."

Luo Ning was speechless, and could only say: "Let's go, I hope our strength can destroy this bridge." ”

"Don't forget the dragon knights, your situation is not optimistic."

"And yourself?"

"No one can kill me." Lisandro's voice was calm, as if she was saying something very ordinary. However, it is precisely this that makes her stronger and more confident.

Ronin smiled wryly, he had thought that this Frost Witch would fight them to the death. Now it seems that she has a way out. But he also knows that this way out is not a way out for everyone.

"I will avenge you." Lisandro's calm voice came, and Luo Ning didn't know what kind of emotion he should use to respond? Grateful?

"Let's wait until we're dead." (To be continued) R655
