Chapter 0083 - Burn! Burn! Burn! The flames are burning!
"One day, I'm going to make you the most despicable ghouls, and then, torture you for 10,000 years!" Arthas looked at the sky-high fire in front of him with a blue face, and said word by word in a dark and hoarse voice! Well, in fact, since he became a Death Knight, his face has always been this miserable white and blue dead man's face.....
Standing outside the huge fire field burned by the flames like the end of the world, the embarrassed Arthas slashed a sword and cut a ghoul who dared to get too close to him in half, only to get a little bit of evil in his chest!
If he hadn't been reminded by Kel'thugad just now, he would probably have been trapped in the fire, and if that were the case, he wouldn't have been burned to the point where he looked a little embarrassed!
Originally, just now he wanted to fight his beloved horse Invincible to be bitten to death by that flaming giant bear once, and he also wanted to hack to death that demigod little girl mage first! But who would have thought that in the end, he would still be empty of bamboo baskets!
In the end, not only did he not kill the little girl mage, but he was also so tired that his beloved horse was directly burned to ashes by the huge fireball that fell from the sky, I'm afraid, I don't even have a chance to resurrect again! Unless, he can get his ashes back after the fire is extinguished, but......
But look at it now! The sky-high flames had turned a radius of kilometers into a sea of flames, and the sky-high flames burned higher than the golden oaks of Quel'Salas! Now, half an hour has passed, and the magic array inside is still running as usual, and the energy escaping from the surrounding sun wells is still continuously gathered by it, and then, from time to time, one or two large fireballs are smashed down from the sky, and this is endless?
I'm afraid that even Anne who cast the spell didn't expect this situation, right? In her original plan, after the magic array drained the surrounding energy, the fire would gradually stop on its own.
But now? The fireball is smashing into the joy! The magic energy consumed by the surrounding area was quickly filled by the energy of the Well of the Sun, and then, under no one's control, before the magic array energy was exhausted, it also ran as usual, so the newly formed large fireball still smashed down to the predetermined position regardless of whether there were undead below......
In this case, what did he Alsace have to do to get the invincible ashes back? At that time, the fireballs that fell from time to time were probably mixed with the ashes of his beloved horse and the ashes of tens of thousands of undead, right? After a while, I'm afraid even the ashes will be burned!
That's the invincibility of his Alsace......
That mage!
That damn elf!
……
"Give up, Arthas! The magical energy here in Quel'Salas is so abundant that with the energy of the Well of the Sun, the fire could even last for an entire day! There's no need for us to waste precious time here! Give up early! ”
Seeing that Arthas was still hesitating before the fire, and even wanted to use the ice energy of Frost Sorrow to try to extinguish the fire in front of him, Kel'thugad, who was staying in his backpack, hurriedly spoke up.
He Kel'thugad is still nested in a small urn, waiting for the death knight Arthas to go to the Well of the Sun to resurrect him! And now, look, this thing actually wants to extinguish the fire first, then level Silvermoon City, and finally go to the Well of the Sun Heights on Queldanas Island!
This is putting the cart before the horse, can you Alsace do something reliable? Didn't that little girl just burn your horse? As for such a dead-eyed person going to fight that powerful demigod mage? Did you catch her? Maybe if you get in a hurry, you may be able to fly to the other side of the continent with a teleportation! What can you do?
Besides, now that people have teleported back to Silvermoon City, in the case of backup, people can cast spells with peace of mind to play slowly with you, when will you fight a Silvermoon City with a complete defensive shield? How many troops will be consumed? Even if you defeat Silvermoon City, how many undead will die by then? Should you go to Quelldanus Island?
And most importantly: you, a death knight, led a group of melee cannon fodder to attack a magical city guarded by demigods without the aid of a spellcaster, are you sure you're not sick in your head?
really fought, that scene, he Kel'thugad was afraid to think about it! Only the Dharma Master will understand the horror of the Dharma Master! Not to mention that demigod, even if he was alive in Kel'thugad, if he was to garrison Silvermoon City, you Alsace would have to die at least half of the undead before he could attack the city!
Kel'thugad just can't figure it out! Isn't it just a death horse? What's the big deal, if you burn it, you will burn it! After he is successfully resurrected, he can summon a hundred horses for you at will, fat, thin, tall and short, whatever you pick in Alsace, there should always be one you like, right? If you like the name Invincible so much, when the time comes, you can still give it a name called Invincible? Can you be so stubborn?
"Shut up!"
Arthas clenched the hilt of Frostmourn's sword tightly, and didn't care about Kel'thugad's nonsense, this lich was killed by himself once when he was alive, and now, he is dead, and he still wants to point fingers at him? I don't know what to do! Who does he think he is?
For Arthas, the place of invincibility in his own mind is not as simple as a horse, in his heart, its place is extremely important!
After going through so many things, in his Alsace step by step to the present, on the road to becoming a death knight, he has tasted the heart-rending pain when he was despised by his lover, and he has also suffered from the endless torture of killing his teacher and father, ruining his country and family, and in the end, who else still does not abandon and accompanies him without regrets? Not a single one! That's all left of this war horse: invincible! It's the only one, even if it turns into an undead, it will be by his side without regrets! Invincible is the last bit of humanity in his heart! With special significance!
And now, it's been burned down by a mage's fire? I didn't even have a chance to be resurrected! How could he, Alsace, give up on this? If he doesn't destroy the High Elves, if he doesn't level Silvermoon City, if he doesn't turn those damned elves into ugly ghouls, he will definitely not be able to swallow this evil breath in his chest!
......
Arthas, my Death Knight......, now, follow my orders, turn around and find another way to Quelldanus Island! Take down the Well of the Sun as fast as you can! Make no mistake!
As Arthas was about to find a way to send a few gargoyles out to scout the terrain and see if there was a way to find another way so that his army of death could bypass the fireground and head straight for Silvermoon, the voice of his master, the Lich King Neozu, came from the Frostmourning Sword in his hand.
"Yes! Lich King, my lord, I will obey your orders......"
Although I am very unwilling in my heart, I don't want to let go of those murderers who killed the invincible! However, the Lich King's order is not something that Arthas can resist now, so he can only be forced to obey the order, temporarily let go of Silvermoon City, which is less than half a day's journey in front of the fire, and the army will find another way, turn to Queldanus Island, and take the Sunwell Heights first!
Then, when his army returns, he won't let go of that Silver Moon City, and the elves in it, and that damn little girl! He swears by Alsace! In the name of the Lich King! They will never be spared!
"The whole army obeys the order! Goal: Northwest direction, rapid forward! ”
After finally turning his head, he crossed the fire with hatred, and after staring in the direction of Silvermoon City in the distance for a while, Arthas finally swung his magic sword and pointed to the northwest, where was the direction of the Elven Western Temple! Under the control of Frostmourn, the army of the undead turned in an instant, and then walked silently forward.
Silvermoon City! I'll definitely be back in Alsace! I swear! You must wait for me......
……
Silvermoon City, thousands of years ago, after the High Elves landed on the continent of Lordaeron, they built Silvermoon City here as their main city. Rather than using the white opales of the ancient Kadore Empire or living plants, the city's architectural conception took advantage of the natural topography to intertwine with the environment.
Now, after thousands of years of being washed by the magical energy of the Well of the Sun, Silvermoon City has become a peaceful and beautiful magical city. The color of the whole city is mainly golden yellow and red, and even the trees and flowers, except for a few that still retain turquoise, are all magically transformed into golden or red magic trees, and the leaves reflect the golden light under the sun's rays, and the buildings with the same golden or red roof decorations are beautiful, like a fairyland......
This should have been a beautiful and peaceful magical city, however, today there is no usual hustle and bustle on the streets, and the citizens who look hurried and the Silvermoon guards who deliver strategic supplies come and go.
"Lotherma! Don't tell me! Now there are less than two thousand ranger troops left in the entire Silvermoon City? ”
After being teleported back to Silvermoon City by Annie, Sylvanas? Windranger, this ranger general didn't care about the exhaustion of his body, and rushed to the city defense hall of Silvermoon City as soon as possible! She had to remind them that they had to prepare for the worst, and in her opinion, Silvermoon City would definitely not be able to hold it!
However, to her surprise, the highest commander in charge of defense here turned out to be her former Ranger Adjutant, the current Ranger Lord Lotherma? Theron? What kind of joke is this? What about the royal family? What about the elders? What about the members of the council? Where did they all die?
A city in Nuoda actually let a former lieutenant of the Ranger General preside over the defense? Isn't there a single high-ranking official in the whole city? This joke is a bit big! Oh! Actually, it's not right, the moment she Sylvanas returns, the Supreme Commander will now become her, because she is the Ranger General! Lotherma? Theron's immediate boss!
"That..., General, because after discussion between the Council and the royal family, they feel that the target of the undead should be the Well of the Sun on Queldanus Island, and the Well of the Sun is extremely important to our High Elves, so ......"
Lotherma? Theron shrunk his head and explained. In the face of his own general, he is really a little cowardly! Because General Sylvanas Ranger is notoriously short-tempered, for fear of accidentally touching her moldy head!
"So they left Silvermoon City, took all their troops, and ran to the heights of the Well of the Sun? Just leave a group of old, weak, sick and disabled and 200,000 clansmen left it alone? ”
Sylvanas is going mad! Is it true that in the eyes of the royal family and parliament, 200,000 people are not as good as a mere sunwell? Don't they know the horror of the army of the undead? What the hell is going on in their dogs' heads?
"General..., after discussion, the council believes that with the Silvermoon City Enchantment and the Well of the Sun, which continuously provides energy, the undead cannot break through the city, so, in their opinion, two thousand ranger troops should be enough to defend the city! As long as the Well of the Sun is still there, Silvermoon City will be fine. ”
Lotherma hurriedly opened his mouth to argue, in fact, he himself thought so, in his mind, as long as he stuck to the city and stayed in the barrier and didn't go out, then the undead would definitely not be able to help them. Then, as long as the Well of the Sun is okay, it will definitely be okay here! That's how it should be, the resolution of the parliaments, I think it's right.
"Stupid! What I need is a large number of Ranger troops and elite spellbreakers, royal guards, and a lot of high-level mages! And not these old and sick now! You, you will never know how terrible a Death Knight and his army of the undead are! And ......" Sylvanas remembered that the undead could easily break through the elven gate, and she subconsciously felt that there was definitely something wrong with this thing!
It is quite possible that there is a traitor within the elves, and it is very likely that there is a high-ranking traitor, and that traitor has betrayed all the secrets of the elves! The enchantment that their elves once prided themselves on is no longer so reliable!
However, this sentence was not uttered by the ranger general, she was afraid, afraid that at this critical time, her words would cause unnecessary riots and panic! There are traitors from within the High Elves, and the city barrier is no longer reliable, which is a fatal blow to morale!
"Alright! You report right now, I need to know, how many troops are available in our Silver Moon City? ”
Sighing, Sylvanas sat down on the main seat of the hall and poured a large cup of elven flower brew in one go, she decided, don't dwell on these things for the time being, they only have less than a day to prepare, and they must use this hard-won time to prepare for the city defense work as soon as possible!
"Uh..., this, there were only 1,800 Silver Moon Ranger in the city, and there were about 300 low-level mage troops in charge of the mage towers all over the city, and they were presided over by three high-level mages. Then, there seem to be more than 200 Silvermoon guards in the city who maintain law and order, and there are about dozens of royal guards, but we don't have the right to transfer these guards, they are mainly responsible for guarding the palace. ”
Lotherma quickly finished reporting, after all, he was still presiding over the defense just now, these things have already been sorted out, all the data has been recorded, and the supplies are almost ready.
"Not enough! This is not enough! Hearing the data from Lotherma's return, Sylvanas immediately couldn't sit still and quickly got up from his position.
"Now, Lotherma, go put up the notice! Recruit militia and hunters to help defend the city! Then, put up a notice that the citizens had better prepare early, so that they can abandon the city and retreat at any time! ”
"Retreat? But, General! We don't have that permission! It's against the law! In case the king and the council are held accountable...... "Hearing the general's words, Lothama was frightened! Is this the rhythm of preparing to abandon the city and flee? That's a great culpability! Whether it's Talothama or General Sylvanas, no one can afford to take on this responsibility!
"Do it right away! As for the king and the council, I'll give them a reasonable explanation! Go ahead. After waving Lotherma out, Sylvanas looked at the layout of the city's defenses on the table with a headache.
Having seen the power and almost infinite number of the undead, she now had no hope of holding Silvermoon City with a force of less than 3,000 men! Besides, ordinary attacks are of no use to the undead, only mages, a large number of mages can deal considerable damage. And now, there are only less than three hundred low-level mage troops in Silvermoon City, what can these people do?
Perhaps, it's time to ask that powerful little girl for help again?
Thinking of this, Sylvanas suddenly remembered that little girl named Annie, she had burned at least a thousand undead with her first shot just now, and before leaving, she also set a fire to successfully stop the undead! Until now, on the tower of Silvermoon City, you can see the end of the distant line of sight, the sky full of flames and huge fireballs falling from time to time!
That's a powerful demigod mage! Perhaps, she should be able to help again, right? You have to give it a try......
