The voice seemed to urge Arthas to make a decision at once. The situation of the Heavenly Punishment Army is indeed not optimistic, and when reinforcements from the Frostvein Dwarves arrive, the undead will face the dilemma of being attacked on their backs. Moreover, there are still strong people among the enemy who are no less powerful than the most powerful Lich King of the Heavenly Punishment Army, and it is impossible to withdraw from the battle without paying a heavy price.

"Opportunities are fleeting."

At the sound of this, Arthas only felt his chest fill with anger.

"No!"

He made a firm refusal.

Having been a vassal of the Burning Legion and fed up with being unable to make his own decisions and being driven by others, Arthas was no longer willing to endure the enslavement of an unknown master.

"Refuse, you will be ruined!"

The voice became angry.

Arthas responded with contemptuous ridicule: "Then you will ruin me!" ”

Just as he answered, horrific scenes appeared in his mind:

He saw the body of Akmund, the master of the Burning Legion, floating in the shattered continent; Seeing a gigantic unimaginable god of the Ancients (Vanar) throw a spear and destroy a massive legion fortress in an instant, Kil'Gardan is in pursuit of him; He saw a terrifying Elder God kill the Titan and tear that Titan's corpse apart with countless tentacles.

The minions of countless Elder Gods have emerged from the earth, from the sea, from the void, and have destroyed all creatures that disobey them. A black armored dragon flies out of the maelstrom and, on the orders of the Elder God, turns the entire world upside down and destroys all living beings. Create a real apocalyptic scenario.

He watched as countless massive machines and giants emerged from the ice-covered temples, killing all creatures that disobeyed the Elder Gods.

He saw himself: he was in a vision leading an army of the undead against a group of rock giants. And a giant more than 100 meters tall strode up and picked up the stone hammer. Smash into yourself that you can't dodge at all.

The feeling of imminent death was so strong that it instantly woke Arthas from his vision.

At this time, the voice continued to come into my mind, although this time there was no picture, but the content was enough to make everyone's hearts tremble: "We obey the power that is not swayed by time, the power that is not swayed by fate. No one can fight this power, not even the Titans and the Burning Legion! Whoever stands in our way will be ruined! ”

In the face of such great power, Arthas had no choice but to surrender.

The owner of the voice was pleased with the Lich King's allegiance.

"From now on, you are the master of all natural disasters. Take control of them. Fight for my coming! ”

After the sound faded, Arthas woke up from his vision.

"Did Akmund be killed by him too?" He only felt his heart pounding. But he thought back to the history of the time and space he came from, and slowly adjusted his thinking. "Wait until I gather enough strength......"

At the same time, Arthas felt that the power of the Helm of Domination was no longer disturbed. He clearly sensed that all the undead in Northrend were no longer obedient to the Calthus who had stolen the throne of the Lich King.

It took only one breath for Arthas to regain the allegiance of all the undead. At this moment, he is once again the master of the Icecrown Fortress!

"It's true...... It's not a fantasy! Arthas couldn't imagine what kind of power would help him regain control of the Scourge Legion.

And the mastermind behind the scenes, Yugsaron in Ulduar's prison watched this scene with great satisfaction.

As an ancient god, although it is extremely powerful, it has no way to forcibly remove the rule of the Lich King from thousands of miles away. He was able to do this only because he had enough information.

Because of this time. It was just when Karthas, the "Lich King", led the Legion of the Forsaken into the Dark Gate to reinforce the Outlands.

After leaving Azeroth, the undead of Northrend were of course unable to sense their original owner. So the weaker Alsace naturally became the new owner of the Icecrown Fortress.

"It's all in my hands." Yugsaron let out a low, cold laugh underground.

——

The Nightmare invades, and it is incumbent upon scientists and mages to take responsibility for cracking it. Liability can be attributed to responsibility. More than twenty days had passed since the first Sleeper found out, and tens of thousands of people had died from exhaustion, almost completely no weaker than the invasion of the Burning Legion. But everyone still had no clue how to wake up the sleeper. Or find out the root of a qiē.

Elixir, magic. Electric shocks, physical stimulation, hypnosis...... They tried almost every means they could think of, but they never succeeded in awakening even a single person.

Antonidas, as the dominant man in Dalaran, is under more pressure than Svein.

He hadn't had a smile on his face for half a month.

"It's not you who are the problem." This is said by Egwen, the guardian who has been invited out of the mountain by Anna, who has just returned from a meeting with her son Medivan.

"Have you found out?" Antonidas looked at the legendary Guardian.

Egwen nodded with a calm face, "All the means are useless, and we basically can't find a way to solve it." Because the root of the problem is not in our world. ”

"Where's that?"

"Dreams, emerald dreams. A place that the Green Dragon Legion has guarded for generations. "It's contaminated." ”

"So, what can we do?"

"Enter the Emerald Dream and solve the nightmare."

"But—how?"

Antonidas's question silenced Egwene as well.

Anna seemed to know how to solve the problem, but on her way to Mount Hyjal, she was attacked by a mad blue dragon and fell into a coma.

It is almost impossible for the Blue Dragon Legion and the Bronze Dragon Legion to cooperate with mortals, and the gap between the two is too deep; The Green Dragon Legion is too busy to take care of itself; In the end, only the Red Dragon Legion remained.

"Luo Ning has been to the Holy Land of the Red Dragon, let him give it a try!"

"That's all there is to it."

——

The terrifying nightmare erupted in an increasingly terrifying power after Anna fell unconscious, and the number of new sleepers added every day was almost several times that of the previous day. Everyone feared that they would not wake up, and the Prince of Alsace was no different. In the past two days, several important ministers and lords have been haunted by nightmares. Everyone was terrified that they would fall asleep and never wake up again.

"What! Father him! When Arthas heard the news, his eyes immediately widened.

Because the royal guards sued him. King Terenus also fell into a deep sleep.

Alsace was stationed in the military district of Theramore, after getting the news. He immediately mounted his horse and prepared to rush to the palace. The red-eyed squire led his horse over, but before the reins could reach Arthas, the squire suddenly collapsed.

Many people are afraid that they will fall into a deep sleep, so they dare not sleep for several days. It may be okay to stick to one night or two nights, but no one can ignore the physiological needs. The squire held out until the third day, and finally collapsed.

Arthas felt nothing but a heavy heart. He ordered the guards behind him to help the attendant, and then rode to the palace himself.

He had just arrived at the gate of the palace when a bell rang out over Theramore.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! Panicked shouts came and went.

As a herald arrived at the approach, Arthas hurriedly asked, "Tell me quickly." What happened? ”

"Your Royal Highness, Kraken! The Kraken has attacked! The herald's lips were dark and his eyes were filled with horror, "Countless krakens, and huge octopus-shaped monsters!" ”

Arthas glanced nostalgically at the palace gates, where his father was a few hundred feet away.

Arthas turned around resolutely and shouted, "Gather all the warriors and mages at once and prepare for defense!" Send out griffon cavalry to scout the enemy! Send a messenger. Alert your allies and ask for help! ”

He immediately left the palace and rode to the barracks.

But there was a shadow over everyone's hearts, especially on the way back, when Arthas saw at least four or five people fall to the ground as they walked. He didn't even have time to check if the other person was asleep or something else was going on.

People don't even figure out how nightmares happen. The minions of the Elder Gods bared their fangs. Almost at the same time as Theramore's attack, the Land of Justice was also facing a severe test.

Svein arranges combat missions at military meetings, and every general and hero looks very dull. The atmosphere of the meeting became very strange.

"Zhao Xin, Irelia, you lead the troops to garrison Azhara. That side will be an important battleground. ”

At this time, a deep voice suddenly came from the crowd: "But a third of the people are already asleep." ”

Everyone's heart is awe-inspiring.

No one wants to find out who said this, but it's the truth. Until today. A third of them have already fallen asleep. Nightmares are not limited to the old and weak, and many physically strong people may also not wake up. Except for the heroes with strong willpower, who are basically not asleep, no one else can avoid it.

What is even more terrifying is that about a third of the soldiers in the barracks are also asleep. The focus of the government's operations has shifted entirely to caring for the sleepers, but how can it take care of it?

Maybe in another three or five days, there will be few people still standing.

Svein shouted, "So what? Should we be tied down? ”

His calm gaze swept over the people in the conference room, "We haven't failed yet!" But if we lose even the courage to fight, how can we defeat the enemy? ”

Irelia stood up and said, "I'm taking someone away." ”

"We're all in this together." Zhao Xin also followed, they had just been appointed to set up a defense in Aisara.

The generals gradually withdrew from the conference room, except for Darius. Svein leaned back slowly. As the temporary Supreme Commander, he endured more than everyone else.

"Svein, who is our enemy?" Darius's sharp eyes stared at each other.

"Fear." Svein looked at Darius, his former and current ally, "Our enemy is fear. ”

——

Ronin set off directly on the day Gianna was asleep. By the time he left, the situation had deteriorated to the extreme, and thousands of people were asleep every day, but it was not yet time to completely lose control.

But soon, the situation really became out of control. The invasion of the Kraken and the minions of the Elder Gods has made the situation even worse for the Alliance, nearly pushing them into a corner.

As the birthplace of nightmares. The Night Elves are under greater pressure than any other race.

Sleeping and not waking up is only a prelude to the Nightmare King's attack. The real offensive really kicked off after Wastein was resurrected.

At this time, Tyrande happened to be in the moonlit glade, repeating the routine of awakening Malfurion. She had no idea that Vandal had resurrected Wastein. All of them are still really sliding into the abyss.

She had just left her husband's sleeping den and was about to return to Mount Hyjal when Mirune, daughter of Cenarius, the king of the forest, suddenly rushed up to her, her big eyes filled with fear.

"Tyrande, Tyrande!" Mirune's voice trembled in terror, "Remloth, Remloth, he ......"

"Guardian of the Jungle? What happened to him? Tyrande asked hurriedly.

Mirune's appearance reminded her of something unpleasant—could it be that Remulos, who had been badly wounded in the battle with the demons, had died?

He ...... Woke up...... But he's crazy! Mirune said almost with a crying voice.

"What the hell is going on, tell me!" Tyrande grabbed Mirune's hand. He asked while soothing her feelings.

From Mirune's staccato accounts, Tyrande learned that Remulos had just woken up from a terrible injury and an eerie slumber. Mirune and her sister Avrila have been taking care of their older brother. The sisters were very happy to see Remylos wake up, but when Remulus woke up, he attacked frantically and killed Avrilla with cruel means!

They're brothers and sisters! They are all sons of Cenarius!

"Woo woo, how can he do this! That's his sister! Mirune cried as she spoke, "If I hadn't escaped so quickly. He's going to kill me! He's crazy! Woowoo woo ......"

Tears fell from the dryad girl's eyes like beads of broken threads, and she cried very sadly.

Tyrande gently hugged the dryad girl and said softly, "Be strong, Mirune!" He must have been accused by the devil. We'll help you free Remulos. ”

Mirune was still weeping. In the past few months, the Burning Legion has invaded, and their beloved father has been trapped in a dream. My beloved brother went crazy and killed my sister, and she felt like she was about to break down.

At this time. Suddenly the shouts of the Night Elves could be heard in the distance. An elven sentry hurried over and said urgently, "Oh no. High Priest, the Treemen and Ancient Trees of the Moonlight Glades have gone mad! And the Guardian of the Jungle, who is leading the Ancient Trees to attack us! ”

"What!" Tyrande was speechless in shock.

She was just about to mobilize the sentinels and druids to control the mad Remloth, but before she could do it, she found that things had deteriorated like this.

Are even the Tree People and the Ancient Trees being controlled by demons?

Tyrande's heart fluttered, and she had a hunch that the situation was getting out of hand.

"Quick, let's get our men together and get ready to get out of here!" She shouted orders to the Sentinel Captain.

"Yes, High Priest."

"May Elune, the god of the moon, bless us." Tyrande whispered a prayer, and then she said to Mirune, "It's time for us to act, Mirune." ”

When Tyrande managed to get rid of the mad Remloth and the Treants and returned to Mount Hyjal, she realized that the Night Elves' sanctuary was no better off than the Moonlight Glades.

The World Tree withered and withered almost overnight, and even if she wasn't a druid, she could feel the smell of death and decay exuding from Nodashir.

The Night Elves' Mother Tree is dying.

And the Night Elves, who have been blessed by the bronze dragon and never grow old and never die, seem to have lost tens of thousands of years of time overnight. Many of them have become old, weakened, and even dead.

Even more terrifying is the fact that there is fighting everywhere on Mount Hyjal.

She could understand that some of the warriors were resisting the mad Treants.

But why did she see some druids frantically attacking their people?

Why are other clansmen fighting each other for unknown reasons?

After 10,000 years of peace and tranquility, Mount Hyjal was plunged into blood and fire overnight.

"Why, here's why!" Tyrande stood stunned, "Why is this happening?" ”

"Why do my people, my compatriots, fight each other?"

"Elune, the moon god, please guide me and save your lost believers......"

——

The frenzied attacks of the Kraken and the minions of the Elder Gods have sent many heroes to the front lines. Lux was in the Demacian Legion led by her brother Galen.

They are stationed near the village of Senkin at the southern end of the Land of Justice, and have joined forces with the Darkspear tribes of the Echo Isles to fight the Krakens. They had just repelled an attack, and Lux wiped the sweat from her forehead with a handkerchief.

"Are you alright?" Galen asked, striding over.

"It's okay, just warm up!" Lux smiled confidently.

Galen helped her clean up the disgusting mass of rotten flesh from the octopus monster stuck to her hair, and whispered, "Go to the back and rest, don't rush too far ahead, I'm afraid I won't be able to take care of you!" ”

"No, brother, I'm much safer than you." Lux squinted and smiled.

"Go and rest, hurry up and replenish your body." Galen commanded.

At this time, his adjutant came over with a calm face, "General, more than seventy more soldiers are asleep. ”

After a fight, people get tired and want to rest. But now rest has become the worst enemy of the people, and many warriors never wake up as soon as they fall asleep.

"Well, send them to the rear." Galen ordered, "Once the battle begins, it won't be taken care of. ”

"Yes, General."

As soon as the lieutenant left, Galen's face sank completely, and the situation was getting worse and worse.

Lux also frowned, and she whispered, "If only the commander were here." ”

"yes, if only the Commander were here." Galen also whispered.

Except for the Valoran Federation, almost everyone thought that Jiang Weihan and the foreign coalition forces must have been wiped out.

But all the heroes of Valoran are extremely firm in their belief that their commander, the backbone of all, will return and save them from nightmares, wars, and misery.

But at this very difficult time, they hope that this day will come sooner, sooner, even now, this is the moment, to return like a savior and save them from their misery.

At this moment, a huge crack appeared in the sky of Kalimdor, and a magnificent fortress was emerging from the crack in spacetime.

Storm Fortress, which has finally ended its space travel, has made the leap from Draeno to Azeroth.

Azeroth was expecting a savior, and that was why he came. (To be continued......)
