After Darkan complied with the order and traveled to Gilneth, the Lich King Arthas became the de facto commander of the Scourge in the Wraithlands. He and the Burning Legion demons led by the Dreadlord Annatheron are storming Zuaman.

Before they even made the war here, the Black Witch Farina and the filthy Hilgai had already caused a lot of trouble for the trolls of the forest.

Farina steals some of the herbs Hilgai needs from the troll witch doctor, and the necromancer refines them into plague poison. The two sneakily poured plague venom into the troll's drinking water. A few days later, thousands of trolls were infected with ghouls.

The two secretly ordered the minions to cause trouble everywhere, which was a great headache for the trolls. The ruler Zulkin was furious, and while ordering the suppression of chaos, he searched for these hateful rats.

Hilgai and Falina carefully hide themselves, playing hide and seek with the trolls. Except for the first poisoning, the subsequent actions did not bring much damage to the trolls, but they made the trolls angry, and they were afraid of eating unclean things.

Zulkin ordered the priests to summon animal gods—a bobcat god with a keen sense of smell and a giant eagle with extraordinary eyesight. With the help of the two animal gods, and after a round-up by the troll warriors, the two poisoned rats were finally trapped in the four corners. Zurkin has finally been able to catch them!

But by this time, the Burning Legion had already destroyed the Eternal Song Forest, and instead: the flames of war were burned here. Overnight, the Ghost Lands was infested with arsonist demons.

Not only do elves love forests, but forest trolls make a living from them. Burning forests is something that the trolls can't stand at all. Enraged, Zulkin ordered his witchcraft lord Malakas to lead a large army to slay these demons and undead. But without them having to trouble the demon, the other party took the initiative to knock on the door. The armies of the undead and demons marched directly into Zuaman's territory.

Just engaged. The forest trolls immediately realized the power of the Burning Legion. Agile and ruthless, the Troll Warriors are jungle killers and the best warriors of all. But they were completely stunned by the minions of the Burning Legion. Countless armies of the undead, doomsday guards descending from the sky. The blood-sucking Nasrezm, the mighty demon of the Abyss...... Each of them is a mortal enemy, and each of them has never been seen before, with absolutely no experience in dealing with them.

On the first day alone, the trolls who relied on the gates to defend themselves paid thousands of heavy casualties. The priests of Zuaman had to summon more animal gods to come to their aid.

Alsace personally led the army to fight at the front. He chose a giant bobcat as an opponent - the beast god was agile and ruthless, and had slain hundreds of scourge under its claws.

After a fierce battle, Arthas still won. He stepped on the giant twitching bobcat and drew the sword that had been plunged into the beast's chest.

This bobcat is the bobcat god Haraz, summoned by the trolls. Trolls have a very complex and strange faith, and they often worship the souls of dead troll ancestors or the souls of strong beasts. Those souls they worship have absorbed the power of their faith. may become a god (loa god) who guards them. These guardian spirits absorb the incense and are naturally obliged to protect the troll worshippers who worship them. When trolls are in crisis, they can summon these gods.

But gods are not necessarily powerful and invincible. In fact, many of the Loa Gods (Loa Gods) are not even as strong as ordinary heroes. But there will still be some strong ones among them. For example, the Bobcat god Haraz itself is not weak, but it is a pity that it has encountered the stronger Alsace.

"But that's it." Arthas sneered contemptuously and kicked away the body of the cowering bobcat deity. The forest trolls in the distance looked at him in fear, sad and desperate. Their Patronus was slain right before his eyes!

"Kill them all!" Alsatian greatsword shouted.

Countless undead and demons pounced on the gates of Zuaman. Troll fortresses, which the High Elves and the Alliance have failed to breach for thousands of years, are crumbling under the Burning Legion's forces.

At this moment, Arthas suddenly felt that his control over the Scourge had weakened a little. These undead ...... It seems that some are irritable, and some even start to attack the demons around them regardless of friend or foe.

"It's Darkan. He...... He's dead? Arthas guessed the answer at once.

Only when the Lich King dies. The undead will get out of control. Arthas, after all, is from another world, and his ability to control some of the scourge is entirely due to Darkan's mandate. The scourges of this world all nominally belong to the true Lich King Darkan. And the helm of domination on Darkan's head has not lost most of its power, and the one worn by Arthas himself has been destroyed by Illidan, which is not as good as the original.

So after sensing this irritable feeling. Arthas immediately guessed the answer.

――

Darkan's spirit sensed the power of the sword, and he had many ways to avoid it if it wasn't hooked by the hammerstone's chains.

But the reality is that he is being entangled by the hook and sickle of the hammerstone. Can't even raise your hand.

"Death Sentence", Hammerstone gave the hook a grim name. Hooked. It means death!

Jiang Weihan felt that his essence, qi, and spirit were highly unified, and this sword burst out with unprecedented power. A flash of blue flame slashed across Darkan's neck, drawing a beautiful arc.

"Pounce!"

The Lich King's head left his body, and the once-vigorous soul fire in his eyes became dim, as if it would be extinguished at any moment.

The skull wearing the Lich King's crown fell to the ground, and Jiang Weihan followed suit.

"Bang dang!"

The Helm of Domination collided with the ground, and the skull wrapped in it rolled out. Jiang Weihan came to Darkan's skull, and the other party conveyed an idea, containing infinite regret. He ignored it, grabbed the hilt of his sword with both hands and stabbed it down.

The Silver Trial broke open the skull. The skull trembled, and then the soul fire inside was completely extinguished.

Karthas opened the Soul Stealing Scroll, and a powerful soul floated in. There is an extra glittering name on the page:

Darkan!

The Lich King - Fallen!

The heroes returned to the ground, raising their arms and chanting. But now is not the time to rejoice. The undead, who had lost control, fell into chaos and rushed towards the living on the front line without organization. They become more insane and bloodthirsty. Even at this moment, the pressure on the Alliance and Horde fronts is even greater than just now!

Grom, who had just been affected by the power of the psychic storm, almost died under the Brooks axe, but it was Sarufar who rushed up to save him with the pain of his mind exploding. But just now, even the two of them couldn't compete with Brooks's might. Under the furious attack of Brooks. The two orc warriors were covered in blood, and even though they tried their best to resist and dodge, there were still several deep wounds on their bodies from the rune axe, and blood was gushing out.

The shape shì is very dangerous, and they could fall completely at any time!

Until Darkan's head is chopped off and the power of the spiritual storm is gone. It was only then that Grom and Sarufar were given a respite.

And when Jiang Weihan completely killed the Lich King, the natural disaster fell into chaos, and Brooks was also greatly affected. He lost his sense of contact with the Lich King, and his spirit suddenly fell into emptiness. However, it is also at this time. He found himself in possession of an independent will! He no longer fights for the Lich King, but for himself!

Seeing this, Grom struggled to split Brooks' rune axe and shouted, "Brooks, your master is dead!" Now is your hour! ”

"I'm free." Brooks grinned cruelly, "Without the Lich King, you think I'll be powerless?" No, let my axe come to you, I'm stronger now! ”

He roared. The power of frost condensed on the rune giant axe, slashing at a faster speed than before, and the fierce attack even tore through the air!

"Brooks, you don't want to succeed!" Sarufar rushed forward with Grom.

――

Jiang Weihan picked up the Helm of Domination. The sapphire on the front of the helmet shines with a striking light. Whoever wears it will have the power of the Lich King and become the supreme commander of the Scourge!

"The natural disaster is in chaos." Saved Varian walked up, and he still felt like his heart was beating fast. It was the aftermath of the accident - he almost died. It was the head of the Valoran Federation in front of him who saved him with his heroes, as well as several others.

"Yes. The Lich King is dead. The Scourge Legion has lost its master, and now they will only attack the living more frantically. Only the Lich King can control their actions. Jiang Weihan said in a deep voice.

"There are more than 200,000 natural disasters here. I don't know how many there are in all of Azeroth, if they get out of control-" Solas gasped, his heart aching a little. When he looked up, he saw that the gargoyles and frost dragons that had been gathered in formation to attack were flying everywhere, some of them had moved away from the battlefield, and he didn't know where they would fly.

"Whoever wears this helmet will be able to regain control of them." Jiang Weihan raised the black iron helmet in his hand, "But do we need a new Lich King?" There is a mind in this, and no one knows if the new Lich King will continue to fight against us. ”

Jiang Weihan was inclined to destroy it in his heart. As long as the army blocks the exit of the battle line in Burning Wood Village, when the large number of troops arrives, there will always be a time when the remnants of these natural disasters will be emptied. Only in this way can the problem of natural disasters be fundamentally solved.

The other leaders were also silent. No one knows what would happen if someone wore this helmet. Maybe he will control the natural disaster, or maybe he will be controlled by the natural disaster. The results are fraught with risk.

This is the "Death Carnator" Kartas floating up. In this big battle just now, the only thing he did was to take Darkan's soul. Everyone else seems to have played an irreplaceable role, only he played soy sauce.

"Let me do it, Commander." "My destiny is in your hands, and you can put an end to me at any time if you want to wear it—if I wear it and become your enemy." ”

"Karthus, you-" Jiang Weihan looked at the lich of the Shadow Isle in surprise.

"If I succeed, this army of more than 200,000 undead will be of our use. Maybe there's more. I guess it's an adventure worth trying. And," Carl Saston paused, remembering the result of the Dark Titan's attempt to take possession of his body in the Tomb of Sargeras, "and I'm sure Neozu won't hold me back." ”

Even Sargeras will fail, so will Naozu be stronger than Sargeras?

Jiang Weihan was in a dilemma, not knowing whether to agree or not. Reason sues him. The other side is right. But if Karthas's will is dominated by Naozu, does he really want to kill his right-hand man?

"Promise him. Commander. At this point, Kyle said, "His words are worth believing." ”

Kyle sees it as a sacrifice. Kartha's cousin made her start to hate lichs less.

"Hurry up, Commander." Karthas gave Cassadine his staff and spell book. "In the time you hesitate, every second a warrior is dying. I hear the cry of their souls. ”

Jiang Weihan took a deep breath and said in a deep voice, "The people of Valoran will be grateful for your sacrifice. ”

"I don't need to be grateful." Karthhas still looked so relaxed that one thought it was just a normal helmet.

Kang looked at Kyle. The Angel of Judgment understood, and reached out with both hands to remove Karthas's original helmet. Beneath this hat is also a skull similar to Darkan, and there is also a vigorous soul fire burning in its eyes. They are also lichs, but Karthas has been fighting against the forces of evil under the banner of the Valoran Federation.

Jiang Weihan was in a heavy mood, and he walked up slowly. Come to Karthas. The lich bowed his head and waited for his commander to crown himself.

Jiang Weihan held the Helm of Domination and gently buckled it on Karthas's head.

He withdrew his hand, and saw the ice-blue gem set in the front of the Helm of Domination glow with a brilliant blue light.

When the helmet was fastened to his head, Karthas heard a voice: We will be one!

Memories and powers belonging to Naozu came flooding in, trying to take control of the new body. But Karthas himself is strong, and he is an expert in the study of soul power, plus he has a master-slave contract with Jiang Weihan, this foreign spirit can not oppress him at all. Instead, they were oppressed by him.

He accepted the full memory of Naozu, and also sensed the unwillingness in the soul of this old orc.

Naozu's voice shouted, 'Since you have accepted my power, you will inherit my will!' Quick, kill these alive! ’

'No! Karthas replied.

With the completion of the fusion. The soul fire in Karthas's eye was stained with an icy blue flame. The restless scourge around them quieted down, and they no longer attacked the forces of the Alliance and the Horde.

The newborn Karthas knelt down on one knee in front of Jiang Weihan and made a new voice: "Now." The Scourge will act on your will. Commander! ”

When Karthas became the Lich King, he sensed the connection between all the scourge spirits on the continents of Northrend and Lordaeron and him. There is a group of scourges in the Wraith Lands. He felt it. But when Karthas tried to control them against the demons around him, another will began to compete with him for control of these natural disasters.

――

It's Alsace!

The undead of the Ghost Lands are in chaos. One moment attacking the demons around you, the next attacking the trolls, and the next stopping again.

Annatheron was furious, and he rushed to Arthas and roared, "Look what your minions are doing! How dare these shitty guys attack our people! ”

Arthas was concentrating his will on confronting the new Lich King, Karthas, and had no time to answer.

Sylvanas, the "Banshee King," stepped forward and explained, "The Scourge is out of control - it looks like Darkan is dead. ”

"What!" Annatheron was shocked. "That skeleton, you said he was dead?"

"Otherwise, he betrayed the Burning Legion." Sylvanas's voice had a hint of schadenfreude. Even after becoming a banshee, she still retains the memories of her life. Sylvanas won't forget who made her the ghost she is today. Even if she succumbed to the power of the Burning Legion, she still hated her current master, and even all of them—including those she once loved so closely.

Her master is the Lich King, and she can only be set free when the Lich King dies. For a moment, she experienced what it was like to be free. But it was quickly recaptured. It was Arthas, and he regained control of her.

She was overjoyed to see Arthas in trouble.

When Annetheron heard that it was the internal strife of the Scourge Legion, he immediately said with hatred: "Since it is your own mess, you will leave it to solve it yourself!" We will withdraw first, when will the civil strife be resolved, and when will we discuss the capture of Zuaman! I'm going back to protect my master from being disturbed by your messy skeletons. Otherwise......"

The Dreadlord speaks menacingly. Once the strategy was in place, Akmund told them to act according to the plan. And he himself has to communicate with his brothers in the warped void. Now that the Burning Legion is not strong enough, it is impossible for Akmund to destroy the Miè world alone, he needs more minions to complete the task of destroying the Miè world for him!

After the demons of the Burning Legion withdrew, Zuaman, who was about to be destroyed, miraculously persevered. Zurkin and the other trolls were confused and didn't know what the enemy was up to.

But whatever it was, Zurgin was greatly relieved, at least he kept the Zuamai Empire for the time being.

"It was our gods who blessed us and helped us repel our enemies!" Zurkin had an idea and shouted to the bewildered troll soldiers beside him, "This is our land, the land of the trolls!" We will drive out all enemies and protect our homeland! Long live Zu Aman! ”

"Hooray!"

"Hooray!"

Zurkin's words succeeded in boosting everyone's morale and regaining the confidence of the otherwise desperate trolls. He hurriedly dispatched more troops to repair the fortress and clear out the remaining enemy.

But after all, the enemy is powerful, how can Zuaman survive the invasion of the Burning Legion?

Zurkin had to start thinking about their retreat. (To be continued......)
