When Arthas retreated to Icecrown with the remnants of the Scourge defeated generals, the Lich King Darkan asked dissatisfiedly, "Do you have bad news for me as well, Arthas?" ”

"Yes. The Northern Expeditionary Army of the Union has landed. Arthas under the iron helmet frowned. He was somewhat disgusted by Darkan's attitude. It was he who crowned him with his own hands, but now this guy has put on the posture of the superior.

But he did fail. The battle of Grizzly Hills was out of action, and he had to retreat.

"It's not just the Alliance, it's the Horde." Darkan's voice was deeply apprehensive, "Brooks has failed too. Traces of orcs appear in Howling Fjord. They banded together. "His soul is dominated by Neozu, a former orc who knows all too well the potential and destructive power of orcs.

Arthas immediately realized that the Scourge was really in trouble this time. Just as he had been before he was summoned by Nozdom - by that time the Northern Expeditionary forces of the Alliance and the Horde had already stormed Icecrown Fortress, and he was even in Tirio. Ferdin's failed once.

So when Northdom offered to help him travel through time and start over, he accepted the choice without hesitation. However, the beginning of this world was even more difficult than his original plane. The alliance is more united, and the threat of natural disasters is greatly reduced.

Could it be that the history of being defeated by the combined efforts of the Alliance Tribes will be repeated in this time and space? Alsace was not willing to fail.

The two Lich Kings were relatively silent, no matter how powerful they were, they couldn't defeat the Northern Expedition if they were trapped in Northrend. Moreover, their vital forces, the Viku, were already surrounded by the Coalition's armies. I'm afraid the Scourge can't count on the strong and brave Viku anymore to be able to replenish it.

All the forces in the entire continent of Northrend seem to be directed against them.

Without enough corpses, it is simply impossible for a natural disaster to compete with the world of the living.

They have prepared the plague, but to whom should they be spread? The Alliance has long since created an antidote to the plague, and the plague is useless.

The Scourge Legion is powerless. It's a brutal truth.

Both Arthas and Darkan fell silent.

That's when Kel'thugad came in. Darkan said sullenly, "Do you have bad news for me too?" ”

"No, that's good news. My master. Kel'thugad's skeletal face couldn't show a happy expression, but the soul fire that pulsed in his eyes conveyed his excitement to the two Lich Kings, "Lord Akmund, the Great Demon Lord, replied to me once more. Now we have a way to summon him into this world! ”

"Tell me, what's the solution?" Darkan stared at Kel'thugad. The good news swept away his worries. Now only the advent of the Burning Legion can reverse the situation. He prayed that there would be no conditions for them to take Quel'Salas, capture the Well of the Sun, or anything like that he couldn't achieve even with all his might.

"The Book of Medivan, plus an item we already have, and the mana of you and some of your minions." Kel'thugad took out a black crystal. It is almost the embodiment of darkness, constantly devouring the light around it, evil and eerie.

This condition immediately overjoyed Darkan.

"This is the crystal on the Fallen Ember Bringer!" Alsace recognized it at a glance. During the last Battle of the Frozen Throne, the fallen Mograini was slain by the paladin Mograine himself. The weapon in his hand, the "Fallen Ash Bringer", was also broken in two. No one paid attention to it until the end of the war. Unexpectedly, Kel'thugad put a little more thought into it and collected it.

Kel'thugad said: "Yes, it is it! Lord Akmund instructed us that if we infuse this Shadow Crystal with enough power, we can use the Book of Medivan to open a portal to the Void Warp. Summoning him to our world! ”

This will be the key to a complete turnaround for the Scourge Legion. Therefore, Darkan ordered the Scourge to completely shrink its defenses, withdraw the undead from all other places, and concentrate all its forces on defending Icecrown. As long as he waited for Akmund to come, he would be able to crush the ants and destroy these troublesome Northern Expeditionary Army!

After the natural disaster shrinks the defense. As if it were fate, the army of the Northern Expedition gathered in front of the gate of the Icecrown Fortress, the gate of damnation.

――

"Who is that man, the one who has a sword and a scepter, is it Gandalf?"

"Then at least you have to put on your beard and a pointed wizard's hat."

"Lay there for a while. No one bothered to help me. ”

"Why don't you go?"

"Don't, don't, I'm poor. Can't help it. ”

Passers-by were pointing at the young man lying on the ground at the entrance of the alley, but no one made a call. No one came to help them.

"Yo, what a coser!"

"Didn't someone knock me on the stick?"

"Go and give it a hand, Xiao Duan!"

"Don't, Sister Coco, I'm really poor. What should I do if I am falsely accused? ”

"We'll take a picture of it for you with your phone to testify!"

Several young handsome men and women also happened to pass by here and also saw this scene. They all encouraged the tallest young man to help him. Everyone is also hippie and smiling. Didn't take it seriously.

"Xiao Duan, Ah Q. You two go over and see what's wrong with the man? Led by a beautiful woman with black-rimmed glasses, she pointed to the only two boys in the group. Let them do a favor.

The big man's Xiao Duan said, "Sister Xingli, don't be nosy, right?" What if it's really porcelain? ”

"How can a coser be a bad person? We are all cosers. The bad guys don't do this! Xingli's words carried an unreasonable affirmation, leaving them speechless.

"Okay, you can record it for us with your phone, just in case."

"Go quickly, don't bother!"

The two boys confirmed that the girls had really turned on their phone cameras before going over. Xiao Duan turned the person lying on the ground over in the past. The two looked at it, and it was a man of about twenty-seven or eighteen. It seems that the coser is really somewhere, wearing a mage robe, just lying on the ground and stained with a little dust. The person appeared unconscious, except for a slightly swollen bag on his forehead. There were no other injuries.

"It's not a big deal, Sister Xingli, let's help him call 120!" Ah Q checked and said to their leader, Sister Xingli.

"Are you alright?"

"Really, I guess I was either knocked out by someone, or it was some other accident!"

Xingli walked over with her high heels. Looking closer, I saw that the other party was unconscious, and he was still holding the prop sword and prop staff tightly in his hand, and somehow, his heart was soft, and he said to the two: "Anyway, let's go to the studio soon, please help him there to rest." Put ice on your forehead or something. ”

"This, this, not very good?" Xiao Duan hesitated. "Just a stranger."

Xingli turned her face: "If you don't do it, you will be deducted from your salary for three days!" ”

"If you have it, we will send it, but it will not be possible. Sister Xingli. But don't! The two hurriedly begged for mercy.

Xiao Duan and Ah Q set up this person on the left and right. Ah Q found that the weapon in this person's hand still didn't let go, and couldn't help but say: "This person is really dedicated!" ”

"Oh, this guy is a bit heavy! Sister Coco, you take down the sword in his hand, it's in my way! ”

"Okay, okay, such a big man, he also carried his back back. It's useless, you! The prettiest girl in the group complained twice, and came up and broke the fingers of the unconscious man's right hand. With a clang, the strangely shaped greatsword fell to the ground, making a crisp sound peculiar to metal. Coco reached for it. The face was all over again: "Sister Xingli, this seems to be a real guy!" It's so heavy! ”

Xingli also happened to take off the staff on the man's left hand, and seeing that it was very delicate, she couldn't help but praise: "This prop is really good." It really took a lot of thought. Look, doesn't this look like the stick of time in the game? ”

Coco struggled to hold the sword and complained, "I still look like the sword in Kyle's Silver Trial." This blue gem is just like the real thing! It's just too heavy! Who can perform with such heavy props without being exhausted? It is estimated that it is almost the same as a collection at home. ”

"This man looks so raw. If it's really the League of Legends coser circle. We should know each other, right? ”

"It's weird, not impressive. I haven't seen it anyway. ”

They are all members of Xingli's studio, and there is also the official coser of League of Legends, and their popularity is still very high in this circle. In some performances, I also rent or sell props such as costumes. With the popularity of League of Legends, the income is also quite good.

The studio is just over a hundred meters in front. They had just come out to eat. When I came back, I met this strange coser who collapsed outside the alley.

In fact, Jiang Weihan had already regained consciousness when Xingli broke his hand and took off the Staff of Time. His head was groggy. All sorts of images rolled in my mind, and my eyelids were as heavy as lead. He heard them, and he didn't know if it was a hallucination. But the sound of the horns of the cars around him, the sound of the sound playing on the streets, and the crisp collision of leather shoes, high heels and the floor all told him that this was the earth.

'Did I come back in time?' ’

The thought crossed his mind. But I don't know whether to cry or laugh. He crossed when he didn't want to. And after Azeroth worked hard, shouldered the expectations of countless people, and related to the life and death of countless people, he crossed back.

Jiang Weihan's heart is full of contradictions. On the one hand, there is the excitement of actually returning home, and on the other hand, there are the millions of creatures in the Valoran Heart who may be ruined.

"What should I do......"

He immersed his mind in Valoran's heart. It's empty inside. He tried to summon Kieran, but he didn't show up. As Old Man Kieran said in the Battle of the Frozen Throne, they will probably never see each other again.

Valoran's mind still had a lot of energy from the warping timeline, but all of it was unusable. It's just a simple storage space now. There's a lot of mess inside: piles of gold, emergency survival supplies, weapons, armor, and the Eye of Sargeras...... Everything reminded him that it was not an illusion.

Jiang Weihan withdrew his will, lined up all kinds of chaotic thoughts, and finally summed up what he needed to do now:

Determine the present age; Go home; There is also the heart of Sargeras that can be found in some corner of the earth.

As for whether you have the courage to find your way back to Azeroth after returning home...... Let's talk about it then!

――

"Look over there!"

"You guys, come with me here!"

The voices of the forest trolls of the Zuaman Patrol rang out above the heads of Farina and Hilge. The two of them were the last two surviving leaders of Naxxramas. The two of them hid in the lake under the piers, clinging to each other, not daring to make a sound.

Farina's seventh husband, "Plaguebringer" North, also died. Like the six before her. The Lich King is on top, this time she didn't frame the other party with a vicious heart, North really died to protect her. Died under the pursuit of the Trolls of Zuaman.

Oh, it's really bad for them these days.

After being bombed, Naxxramas was planted out of the air into the territory of Zuaman, the territory of the forest troll empire. The natural disaster inside the fortress was already dead when it crashed. Only a lucky few of the survivors will find their way out of the collapsed ruins of Naxxramas. But as soon as they came out, they were besieged by forest trolls who appeared from all directions. There is also the indiscriminate bombardment of the Alliance's forces in the sky: trolls and scourge are enemies anyway. They are not afraid of accidental injury.

The High Elves, in particular, have targeted the vast majority of their attacks at trolls in their magic towers. It also sent the Dragon Eagle troops to harass the other side from the air.

It was three nightmarish days, and Falina couldn't even bear to remember it. One by one, the leaders of the natural disaster died. The most timid of spiders, Maxner, thought he could escape the fastest, but in the depths of Zuaman, he was torn to pieces by the animal gods summoned by the trolls.

The others also died in the pursuit of the trolls.

"What should we do?" After confirming that the troll was no longer there, Falina asked in a whisper. She has six gods and no master. The usual evil intentions are useless in this absolute disadvantage.

Hilgai had a gloomy dead face, "Save yourself first." And take revenge on them! Give these trolls a taste of the power of my plague! ”

Coalition forces confirmed that the Scourge had been defeated and did not send any further ground troops into Zuaman. Although the trolls inside have also suffered a lot of blows. But now is not the time to go to war against the trolls.

After completing the attack, Giggs returned to Pearl City. The "Sky Breaking Cannon" is excellent in actual combat, but there are still areas that can be improved. If it can be mass-produced, it will definitely change the shape of future wars. Now Giggs has a lot of ideas to share with the other two inventors.

However, as soon as he returned, he noticed another thing - the square where the gladiatorial arena had been converted into a colosseum was under martial law again. The heroes who stayed in Pearl City have gathered here. When Giggs left, Kyle, Karthus, and Vega all created summoning circles here. Trying to summon the commander Jiang Weihan, who was trapped in the turbulence of time and space, back.

"You're going to try this circle today?" Giggs glanced at Kyle, Karthas, and Vega. Somewhat incredulous, "Kyle, do you really think three people can activate it?" ”

Both Kael'thas and Vega were expressionless. Apparently there is little hope for this.

"At least it will allow the Commander to receive a message that we are calling him." Kyle replied, looking at the other two mages, "Alright, let's go!" ”

"Yes, yes, yes." Lichs and dark mages infuse their mana into the magic circle. Its runes lit up. Kyle stands in the center. Holding aloft the sword of judgment, he summoned an incomparable divine power from the eternal realm and poured it into the magic circle. The sheer power drove it to work in no time.

In the underworld, a kind of power passes through this magic array, which spans endless time and space. Spread into the unknown. It contains Kyle's thoughts:

"Commander, please respond to our call - both Valoran and Azeroth need your ......"

On the other side of time and space, Jiang Weihan had just woken up in Xingli's studio. This beautiful and capable girl was serving him a glass of warm water.

"Thank you!" Jiang Weihan took the paper cup and said gratefully.

"You're welcome. Good thing you woke up. How did you faint before? ”

Jiang Weihan was about to answer, when he suddenly felt dizzy, and he seemed to hear something in his ears.

'The power of the timeline', Jiang Weihan sensitively found that this was very similar to the power released in the time hourglass of Nozdom.

He listened carefully. “…… all need you", this is not an illusion. Because this voice he had heard countless times, it was Kyle's voice.

"What's wrong with you?" Xingli saw his strange appearance. I can't help but care.

"It's nothing, it's just a little dizzy." Jiang Weihan shook his head.

"Do you want to go to the hospital? Don't leave any after-effects. ”

"No, thank you." Jiang Weihan put down the water glass, stood up and said, "Thank you for your help!" I'm in a bit of a hurry and have to go first. ”

"Ahh This is leaving? The big beauty next to her said dissatisfied, "I haven't said a few words yet." ”

"Yes, leave a phone number!" The beautiful cosers on one side coaxed.

Jiang Weihan still had any phone, so he could only shake his head.

"There's always one, right?" But he was robbed for him.

"I used to have it, but I haven't used it for a long time." Jiang Weihan could only answer truthfully, "I don't have any proof on me now." I have to go back to my hometown. Would you like to come back and thank you after the matter is done? ”

The beauties' faces suddenly fell, thinking that he was shirking. I secretly scolded him in my heart for having no conscience.

Xingli blasted them apart, pulled out a business card of her own, handed it to Jiang Weihan and said, "I think you're also a coser, right?" This is my business card. Get in touch when you're available! ”

Jiang Weihan put away the business card and replied solemnly: "I will." He saw that Xingli's studio was doing League of Legends, and he thought of his identity. Then he asked, "Xingli, which hero do you like the most?" ”

"Knife girl and female gun! What's wrong? ”

Jiang Weihan took out a cowboy hat from Valoran's Heart and gave it to Xingli: "This is the cowboy hat in the skin of Sister Good Luck's 'Western Cowboy', I hope you will like it!" She likes to collect all kinds of hats to give away. ”

"Ah, that's true. Have you ever seen her, handsome? Coco couldn't stop laughing, she took the lead in snatching her hat and looked at it, "It's still old." It's really heartfelt. Hey, I said handsome guy, which studio are you from? If you can't get around, you can come to us. Sister Xingli will definitely take you in. Isn't it, Sister Xingli? ”

"I want you to talk more!" Xingli snatched the cowboy hat with her hand, and glanced at Coco. However, she also thought that Jiang Weihan was also a coser, and this hat should be made by him or someone in his studio, so she smiled: "It's good, I like it very much." ”

Jiang Weihan thought for a moment. He took out a handful of Demacia gold coins and handed it to Coco and said, "This is also the handicraft we make there, you can take it and divide it." It's a little souvenir. ”

"It's exquisite, this gold coin! Handsome guy. Where did you get it from? I didn't see you still have so many things on you, it's like a trick. ”

Xingli sent Jiang Weihan out, and the two said goodbye to each other. Just as she was about to turn around, she suddenly remembered that Jiang Weihan said that she had been robbed, so she stopped him again and asked, "Do you have any money for the bus?" ”

"My house is not far away, I can walk back." Jiang Weihan smiled. He really didn't have any cash on him, and his home wasn't particularly close. But he has a lot of valuable things on him, which is not difficult.

"Come on, you're still hurt. I'm still a good person to the end! Xingli took out two hundred yuan from her leather armor and handed it to Jiang Weihan, "Take it, don't shirk." You just said that you would make a special trip back to thank you, and you will pay me back when the time comes! You're talking, aren't you? ”

"Count!" Jiang Weihan had no choice but to show a smile, "Thank you, Xingli!" ”

"You're welcome, if you're in a hurry, go first! Bye! ”

――

Jiang Weihan walked around the corner and put away his weapon. He's going home first.

He left in 2014. And now it's 2018.

Jiang Weihan had spent a total of two years in the Emerald Dream and Azeroth combined, but four years had passed since the time on Earth. He desperately wanted to go home and see, but the house was still not the same. In the four years since he disappeared, what has become of his parents?

He followed the memories he was most familiar with and returned to his parents' home. There were still some old faces in the community, and they were still a little curious when they saw Jiang Weihan's dress, but no one was surprised by his appearance. Jiang Weihan didn't expect so much, he just wanted to go back quickly and see his parents as soon as possible.

"It's here!" He walked to the door of the home that he was very familiar with in his memory, and this qiē was still the same as it was!

"I'm back!" Jiang Weihan took a deep breath, still unable to hide the excitement in his heart, he raised his hand and knocked on the door.

"It's coming, it's coming!" He heard his mother's familiar voice, and his nose ached, and he almost burst into tears.

It was his longing mother who opened the door, and he was about to open his mouth to call "Mom", but the other party looked at him very strangely.

"Young man, who are you looking for?"

"I'm ......" Jiang Weihan's "Mom" was swallowed back from his throat, and he carefully looked at the middle-aged woman in front of him, she was kind and kind, her temples were slightly white, and wrinkles had climbed on her forehead and the corners of her eyes. It's the same as the mother in my memory.

But why did she look at him so strangely?

"I ...... Find Jiang Weihan. His voice was bitter.

"You're looking for my son, aren't you? You misremember the name, his name is Jiang Weizhong! ”

"Oh, I made a mistake." Jiang Weihan only felt as bitter as chewing Coptis chinensis in his mouth, and his mother's words made him feel like he had been struck by lightning.

'I'm in this world...... is not a zài ......' (to be continued)
