Chapter 0990 ி Lord of Presto ி

Preparations for war in the royal city of Lordaeron are in full swing......

Up to now, in addition to the most elite teams of Lordaeron's heavily armored sword and shield soldiers on duty throughout the day, there were also heavy counterweight trebuchets, dwarven artillery, mortar squads occupying advantageous terrain, and a large number of archers and arrows.

Behind the gates of the city, or at a certain distance from the walls, there were bands of Lordaeron soldiers on standby, columns of knights who were fully armed and ready to fight, and even a large number of able-bodied refugees, who were given shields, helmets, and swords, and armed as militia to support the defense of the city.

In the city and near the city walls, a large number of houses in key locations have been requisitioned and converted into proposed arrow towers or fortresses, and the tops of towering bell towers and sturdy stone buildings have been converted into temporary resting and repairing places for the griffin knights, while the sturdy and fierce flying beasts and their knights are ready to take off.

After three or four days of preparations, the huge city of Lordaeron's capital is now home to a large number of elite troops from the vicinity of Lordaeron, griffin knights galloping from Eagle's Nest Mountain, and a large number of mages from Dalaran! If, with the addition of those armed militias that were improvised together, the troops here in King Lordaeron had approached the exaggerated number of more than 50,000 people at one point, and finally gave the generals here the confidence and confidence to defeat the undead.

But even so, none of Lordaeron's generals dared to propose to lead their troops out of the city to fight the undead in a decisive field battle......

Because, compared to the terrifying number of the undead, the military strength of the Lordaeron Alliance is still a little too weak, especially since most of the militia on Lordaeron's side are militia, and in the case of the undead and a flying fortress Naxxramas!

That huge thing and the deterrent power it possessed, but even the strategic mages of Dalaran were very afraid of it, and they didn't dare to approach it without permission or use spells to bombard.

However, what puzzled the soldiers and generals of Lordan Lunri for a while was:

When the horrific army of the undead set out from Brill and began to threaten Lordaeron, probably waiting for half a day to descend on the city and begin to storm the royal city of Lordaeron for an epic battle, they suddenly stopped again, leaving all those who had been nervous for a long time with a heart feeling a little confused?

The generals of Lordaeron know that so far, the undead scourge still have an absolute advantage and initiative, so their sudden stop made the generals of Lordane Lenri feel very puzzled, but they have no way to probe or get more information......

Because, once the griffin knights who set out to reconnoiter dared to get too close, they would be beaten and expelled by those massive gargoyles, and the wizarding eyes of the Dalaran mages were not of much use, and the necromancers of the undead would always use some method to counteract, especially the fortress hanging above the army of the undead, which was enough to eliminate most of the close-up snooping, so that the side defending the city could only stay in the city with trepidation and dare not act rashly.

Therefore, at this time, in addition to using ships to speed up the transportation of refugees from the port south of Lordaeron from Lake Nalordamir to Dalaran and the Silver Pine Forest, so that Lordaeron could relieve some of the burden on the increasingly logistically burdened Lordaeron, they also did not have a good way to deal with the undead for the time being.

But......

What the people of Lordaeron don't know is that they are missing out on a wonderful plane!

Because at this time, the high-level in the undead calamity, that is, those command classes, are having some kind of great disagreement, so that in the case of a poor or suspended command system, the undead have to stop temporarily?

“……”

"Damn the Dreadlord!"

The Dark Lord Voldemort, with a group of Death Knights and Necromancers, plus a large number of elite undead, surrounded the four ugly Dreadlords who were sneaking around him on his back, not knowing what to do in the dilapidated house by the roadside, and questioned them viciously against the frost sorrow around his waist.

Although Voldemort could not fully use the power of Frostmourn, in the absence of a suitable Death Knight to use it, he had to temporarily carry him with him, using it as a communication tool and a source of power for the Lich King Neozu.

After all, there was no way to do it, the most powerful and fitting Death Knight had been wiped out, and now he had to take it with him for the time being, just as he had done in that cave in Northrend, when 'he' had defied Muradin's warnings and forcibly tried to use its power.

"What the hell are you hiding here for, why don't you suddenly follow orders and move on? That Lordaeron is just around the corner, and it only takes half a day for our undead to get there and overwhelm them completely! ”

The Fear Demon King's abnormal behavior, he specially dispatched a few shadows to tell him the first time, so after the vanguard of the army stopped, he who hindered the undead behind from continuing to advance, he found the door so quickly.

‘……’

'Order? ’

'Whose command do you want us to obey?' ’

'Humph! Ridiculous ant ......'

However, to the Dark Lord's surprise, the four-headed Dreadlord in front of him actually stared at him with that playful sneer after hearing his warning, and even made sarcastic remarks, completely ignoring him, the great lich who was still trusted by the Lich King and entrusted with the important task of commanding the army of the undead?

“!!”

"You want to disobey my orders, you want to disobey the orders of the Lich King?"

"Dreadlord, have you forgotten what happened to that Marganis from before? Do you want to try the wonderful taste of dying under this sword of frost sorrow?! ”

Embarrassed, the Dark Lord Tom Riddle, who couldn't stand the bad attitude of those big bats, slowly pulled out the magic sword that brought him great power from his waist, and let the cold and death power on it begin to escape continuously.

To be honest, if he really couldn't fully control the sorrow of this frost sword, and he didn't have too good swordsmanship to exert its power, he swore that he would definitely give these ugly big bats a good look! For example, just like when Arthas stabbed Malganis, kill one or two more of the four big bats in front of him to let them know how powerful the Dark Lord is?

Unfortunately, Arthas died, and now there is no Death Knight who can perfectly carry the power of the Lich King, so he can only continue to carry this sword.

‘……’

'Humph! ’

'Ridiculous mortal ......'

'He was naïve enough to think that they could really command and threaten us Nasrezm?' ’

To the Dark Lord's surprise again, after he threatened and drew his sword to warn, those big bats continued to stare at him with that kind of disdain, while still laughing unscrupulously like before, not wanting to be as arrogant as before, but relatively obedient to orders?

“!!”

"You guys!?"

Although he didn't know what kind of madness these Dreadlords had, or what kind of conspiracy and trickery they had, he felt that he now had absolute control over the undead troops, and felt that these elite forces around him and with the frost sorrow in his hands should not be afraid of the other party's Dark Lord Tom Riddle, so he held a sword in one hand and a staff in the other, and ordered the surrounding death knights, necromancers, and elite undead to slowly press towards the four Dreadlords.

"Undead, carry out the will of the Lich King and take them down!!"

I don't know what these guys are trying to do, why they suddenly turn against themselves...... However, all he knew now was that the Lich King's will had to be carried out, that Lordaeron had to be destroyed, and that he wouldn't mind destroying the Great Bats if they continued to disobey and disobey orders.

"Humph!"

"That's it! Stop your ridiculous behavior, ants! ”

At this moment, the somewhat impatient Tikdios, the leader and first lord of Nasrezm, the legion demon who oversaw all affairs of Azeroth, finally spoke.

"Put away your set for now, it won't work for us at all! Or...... Do you really think that Mamalganis was killed by you? ”

"It's ridiculous!"

"I don't have time for any more ridiculous games with you here, that Lich King is just a tool of our master, and you and that idiot want to command us?"

Tikdios flapped his wings and slowly levitated, and then emitted terrifying energy fluctuations all over his body, shocking the undead and the Dark Lord Tom Riddle and not daring to act rashly.

Obviously, whether it's Tikdios or other Dreadlords, they can hide their powers, and although they don't like to use their powers to fight, it can't be denied that their powers obviously won't take a mortal under the command of a certain Lich King into account.

"You!!"

Tom Riddle was about to give the order to attack, but he had to stop.

The Lich King had just sent him a new order, telling him to wait first...... Because, the Lich King also wanted to see what these Dreadlord who had finally stopped pretending and finally revealed their true colors, and had been sent by some being to monitor the world of Azeroth, had to say.

"Stupid mortals!"

"I've had enough of you despicable ants for a long time, and now, we're leaving, because the Legion has a new order, and this world of Azeroth doesn't need to invade anymore, so ......"

"You don't have any use now, understand?!"

'Uh-huh-huh-......'

'Goodbye, ants, I hope you don't die too ugly?' ’

'Mortals are mortals after all, who do you think you can command us Nasrezm? ’

'Let's go! Don't talk nonsense with them, it's just a bunch of ridiculous toys. ’

After Tikdios finished speaking, the other Dreadlords also sneered and ridiculed, and then soon, one after another magic circles rose up around them, and they disappeared directly in front of the stunned Dark Lord Tom Riddle, and they didn't know where they went.

As for the undead troops that were originally controlled by those Dreadlord kings, they also rioted at this time......

“……”

"Great Lich King, what do we do now?!"

After standing there for a while, with a black face and the power of Frost Grief to regain control of the army of the undead who were confused and almost out of control due to the departure of the Dreadlord, a certain Dark Lord who didn't know what his expression was, quickly contacted his 'master', the Lich King Naozu.

‘……’

'Leave them alone! Tom, I need a body now, a strong body, I can't be trapped here in the Frozen Throne all the time......

Long

A faint, slightly anxious voice came from within the Frost Grief of the Demon Sword, and was accurately picked up by the necromancer Tom Riddle.

The Lich King didn't know why the Burning Legion had suddenly given up on Azeroth, but he felt that it must have been because of something subtle in the world that he didn't know about! Otherwise, after more than 10,000 years, the Burning Legion, which was bent on invading and destroying this world, would never have given up casually at such a critical time!

So he is now desperate to get out of the predicament and move freely in order to gain more initiative.

"Of course ......"

"Great Lich King, I don't know what your goal is ......"

Tom Riddle also knew that his Potter body would definitely not be favored by the Lich King, in fact, he Dark Lord himself was a little disgusted, but there was no way...... So, after knowing some of the Lich King's plans, he was silent for a while, and then asked tentatively.

'What I want is ......'

……

"Hey!"

"Wouldn't it be nice if everything was the way it was?"

Looking at the chirping birds in the trees, in the royal city of Lordaeron, the queen of Lordaeron, Galia, who was in danger, looked up for a while, and then sighed leisurely. At this time, she was wandering aimlessly in the gardens of the palace with the countess she knew and the witch Hermione Granger.

Considering that not long ago, she was just a princess of Lordaeron, but now, she is a queen......

Although it is still only an acting and has not yet been officially crowned, everyone knows that there must be no surprise in that kind of thing, because her younger brother Arthas Mineshir has been honorably martyred and has been personally sent to the tomb of the Mineshir royal family, and her father is still lying in a hospital bed in a delirious position because he can't accept that fact, so she herself knows that her queen's throne must not be gone, although it is not what she wants.

"Hermione ......"

"I just heard that the undead scourge suddenly stopped, is it that they are not ready to attack Lordaeron?"

It would be best if there was no war, but even Galia herself knew that it was impossible...... Because the opposition between the kingdom of Lordaeron and the natural disaster of the undead is already endless.

There is no way, she will not easily forgive the millions of people who killed Lordaeron, fell to most of Lordaeron, and killed her beloved brother, defeated her father, ruined her royal family of Minethir, and caused countless undead disasters to destroy the families of the people of Lordaeron.

From the time she had to sit on the throne of the queen in the midst of danger, she knew that one day, either the undead would defeat them to the point of extinction and then invade the entire continent of Lordaeron, or they would in turn say that the undead disasters would be wiped out.

Because, there is absolutely no possibility for them to coexist on this continent between them Lordaeron and the Undead Scourge!

"I don't know ...... either"

"Actually, Lord Uther, they don't know, maybe it's because the undead have some kind of new conspiracy, right? But it doesn't matter, now that the whole city is on guard, and the soldiers are at their posts, I think that whatever the undead want to do, they will definitely not be able to get in. ”

"Because we have more than 50,000 soldiers in Lordaeron City, Dalaran and Eagle's Nest Mountain will continue to support us, and Kazmodan is also sending reinforcements, as long as we hold on, there should be no big problem."

Hermione said so, but the ideal scenario for them was that they would lose most of the East and West Plaguelands and Tirisfal Glades, and then hope that the Undead Scourge would not run around, so they would concentrate on fighting them here in Lordaeron's King's City?

And once the undead surround Lordaeron on one side, other forces, such as the terrifying number of hundreds of thousands of undead who spread from Stratholme, once they descend from the Western Plaguelands south to the Alterac Mountains, the Hillsbrad Hills, the Silverpine Forest, and even the Arras Heights, then Lordaeron will be truly finished!

However, although Hermione had heard such terrible things from Uther's military demonstrations, she would not be stupid enough to say such terrible information in front of Galia at such a time, so as not to hit the last heir of the Minethil royal family.

"I hope so......"

"Don't talk about those things, I don't know much about it anyway...... Hermione, while there is still time, you can go with me again, or if the fight starts, you, the countess of Lordaeron, will go to war, and I am really reluctant! ”

After barely squeezing an ugly smile out of her sad face, Princess Galia, or the queen at all, took the other man's hand and continued to wander around the gardens of the palace of Lordaeron, which she knew so well.

This is where she grew up, and watching every plant and tree here grow with her, so, even though Uther and Grand Führer Garisus wanted her to retreat to the safer Dalaran on more than one occasion, she firmly refused.

Because, she is Galia Minahir, the acting queen of the kingdom of Lordaeron! When her brother Alsace was martyred, and when her father fell on the throne, she, the last member of the royal family, had to shoulder her responsibilities, and she would definitely stay with the soldiers here in the royal city of Lordaeron until the last moment, even if she could not fight with the warriors, she would stay in the palace resolutely, so that the banner of the royal coat of arms of Minethil would always fly at the very top of the royal castle!

"Actually, I'm used to it......"

"Sister Jialia, you may not believe it, but now I am no longer afraid of those undead, and I don't have nightmares, and I can basically face all kinds of battles calmly."

Yes, having been through so much, and fighting almost every day, if Hermione hadn't grown a little, she wouldn't have survived to this point.

The only thing she regretted was Krum, Fleur and Harry who came with her......

Now, sometimes, even she finds it a little funny, because she seems to have forgotten about Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry, her classmates, and even her own parents..... everything is as if it existed in a dream at the same time, and what she is experiencing now is real?

“!!”

"Who are you? Why is it here?! ”

The two of them had just followed Jialia hand in hand, and they had not gone far in the depths of the palace garden, when suddenly, Hermione took out her wand and aimed it at the man in front of her, who was facing away from them, stopping in front of a cluster of violet flowers.

Because Hermione was sure that in the palace, apart from the guards, the maids, and the palace butlers, the guy in front of him with his back to them, who didn't know what he was fiddling with, should never be here at such a time!

"Please don't be nervous......"

"I'm not malicious, are you right? My dear Highness Princess Galia Minahir? ”

Hearing Hermione's warning and feeling the surging magic on Hermione and her wand, the strange man chuckled, then spread his hands, turned around, and quipped at the slightly nervous and defensive Galia.

"Yikes!!"

"You ......"

"Lord Presto?!!"

After seeing the man with beautiful straight black hair and black eyes, Galia widened her eyes and covered her mouth in exclaim.

Because she knew very well who that person was, and the other party was the handsome and talented Alterac nobleman her father, King Tenaris, who insisted on giving her to the promised marriage, Lord Davar Presto!
