Chapter 0115: I, Akmund, Are Back

Leaving aside the hapless and tragic Dreadlord who was burned to ashes in the square of the Flame Kingdom's palace for a moment, for now, let's go back and take a look at the battle between the human mages and the High Elves on Dalaran's side of the Undead Scourge.

The situation in front of us is different from the situation at the beginning, when humans and High Elves stayed in the city safely, waiting for the undead scourge troops to enter the magical protection barrier and die.

Now, the situation between the two sides was reversed in an instant after Kel'thugad used a trick to make Arthas raid the treasury of Dalaran and successfully obtained the Book of Medivan. At the moment, it has turned out to be a situation where the combined forces of humans and High Elves have risked their lives to go out of the city many times to raid the undead natural disaster defense formation, regardless of casualties.

In the beginning, the combined forces of humans and High Elves held the city, and let the army of the undead send four waves of troops in to send them to death, not to mention how pleasant it was. And now, the coalition forces have also forcibly sent the teams of the four raids out to open the film to the undead, which is really in response to the old saying: if you come out to mix, sooner or later you will have to pay back......

"Antonidas... Your Excellency, Archmage! We really can't fight like this anymore! Without the protection of the magic barrier, and without the magic assistance of those mage towers in Dalaran City, it would be completely impossible for us to break through the defensive barrier formed by the undead army outside! ”

When the archmage was about to cast another spell and forcibly open the portal to send a group of raiders to interrupt Kel'thugad's summoning ceremony, the High Elf prince Kael'thas finally couldn't help it, and he stepped forward and pressed Antonidas' wand ready to cast his magic.

"Your Excellency, Archmage! Whether it's your mage forces in Dalaran or our reinforcements in Quel'Thalas, we've lost more than half of them now! We can't go on like this...... We are not afraid of valuable sacrifices, but in this situation, it is completely to let them go out and die! ”

Although Kael'thas himself knew that it was best for them to stop Kel'thugad's summoning ritual as quickly as possible!

But now, look outside, the undead scourge have made it clear that they are going to defend outside Dalaran. Now that they are in Dalaran, the combined army of elves and humans is only left with an army of more than 20,000 people, and a considerable number of them are wounded, in this case, what can they do to break through the defensive formation of the nearly 300,000 undead army outside?

In this situation, let alone trying to break through the opponent's defenses, if the undead wake up and suddenly attack Dalaran with a rifle, maybe they will be defeated?

Just now they have organized four rounds of raids, trying to break through the opponent's defenses... However, apart from giving away more than 10,000 new undead to the other party for nothing, it didn't achieve any effect at all. Not only did they fail to break through the enemy's defenses, but they didn't even manage to touch the edge of the Kel'thugad's summoning ceremony venue!

At this point, Antonidas even wanted to use the group teleportation spell he was good at to teleport the troops directly to the enemy's summoning field, trying to make a final desperate struggle, and Prince Kael'thas, who could no longer stand it, had to stop the archmage in front of him, who was getting older and older.

"I also know... It may not be useful to do so, but... Kyle, you see, we don't have a choice now! ”

Sighing, Antonidas broke free of Kael'thais's hand, how could he not know that what he was doing now was just in vain? But what would he do if he didn't? Who knows what kind of being Kel'thugad will summon in a moment? While there was still a chance to do so, he would have to try again.

"Your Excellency, Archmage, we really can't fight like this anymore, and if we waste our precious troops like this, we can think about how to retreat now. Otherwise, we'll be running out of troops to defend Dalaran! ”

Although he was reluctant to say the word retreat, Kael'thas suggested to Antonidas that by now in this battle, his side's forces had begun to be stretched thin, and it was almost time to prepare for a retreat.

"Let me try again, Kyle, and I'll lead the team myself this time, Dalaran... It's up to you! If... If I don't come back, you can open the portal and let the citizens of Dalaran evacuate first, as many as you can......"

Antonidas had already made up his mind, he couldn't just watch Kel'thugad successfully summon some evil archdemon to come out! He had a vague premonition that if he succeeded in making Kel'thugad successful, it would be a great disaster!

Therefore, he was ready to risk his life to try again, this time, he would personally take the last of the elite, teleport to the venue of the other party's summoning ceremony, and then, directly raid the lich and interrupt his ceremony! If you can, you'd better get that important Book of Medivan back!

"Your Excellency......"

Kael'thas looked gloomy for a moment, he thought about it, and before he could say anything, the upheaval happened......

In an instant, it was as if time had frozen...... After a great earthquake that shook the mountains, in the distance, in the summoning ceremony venue in the hinterland of the undead position, a tall and hazy figure began to gradually appear..., and with it, there was some kind of overwhelming bloodthirsty aura, that was a chaotic existence that destroyed everything, that was a pure and extreme evil. It seems that the other party's body is filled with endless surging depraved energy, and around the huge figure, the withering qi began to spread, and the earth began to decay due to pollution......

"Alas, we still haven't been able to stop him ......"

Antonidas sighed, withdrew his staff held aloft, and abandoned the crowd teleportation spell he had prepared to cast.

Now, Kel'thugad's plot has succeeded, and he has succeeded in summoning the evil Great Demon! Looking at the huge figure in the distance, the coercion caused by that absolute power made the archmage almost unable to resist...... What kind of being did he summon from that villain of Kel'thugad?

"Anthony! What do we do now? ”

Kael'thas didn't care about the ceremonial title or anything, he was panting, his hands clutching the guardrail tightly, so that he could try to control his body, suppress the magic in his body, and try not to let his body tremble.

Ahead, in the distance, in the distance as far as the eye can see, in the position of the undead, the pure, evil and powerful figure that appeared was the first time that he Kael'thas had seen in his thousands of years of long life, an unprecedentedly powerful existence!

"Huh! What else can we do now? Open all the portals and let's organize a great retreat......"

Disheartened, Antonidas closed his eyes and sighed deeply, the old wrinkles on his face seemed to grow even more...... Dalaran still couldn't hold on to it after all......

……

As the huge figure began to solidify, and when it finally succeeded in descending on the world of Azeroth in its full form, a deep and loud voice pierced through the hustle and bustle of the entire Dalaran battlefield area, making his voice clearly heard by the undead of Dalaran in the distance and the surrounding Scourge legion.

"Tremble, mortals, despair! The end has come to your world! And I, Akmund, I'm finally back! ”

Looking at the tall body of the other party and the surging, boundless power, Arthas used his best efforts to barely suppress the boundless fear in his heart, he strangled the frightened death horse, and slammed the horse's belly, causing it to quickly trot forward a few steps to the side of the legendary lich Kel'thugad, since his invincible was burned in Quel'Thalas, he had not been able to find a horse that satisfied him.

As Arthas watched the giant demon lord and carefully rode his horse to Kel'thugad, a dreadlord, the coward named Tikdios, teleported to the place in due time. When the Dreadlord jumped out of the portal, the other party quickly flattered, quickly ran to Akmund's side, and saluted deeply.

This made Arthas snort disdainfully in his heart, Dalaran had never seen this Dreadlord in this battle from beginning to end! And now, the battle had just ended, and Akmund had been summoned, and he had arrived on time.

The shameless behavior of the other party made Arthas stop the urge to come forward and salute Akmund, and the Death Knight disdained to do the same thing as such a despicable bat.

"Great Lord Akmund, you have finally arrived, and I, as your humble servant, have prepared everything."

Tikdios prostrate himself on the ground flatteringly, like a skinny toad lying under the giant's feet compared to Akmund's dragon-like body.

"You're doing a great job, Tikdios, I'm satisfied."

Akmund replied casually, nodding perfunctorily at the demon who was lower than him, reluctantly acknowledging the effort he had made to successfully summon himself to the world of Azeroth.

"Since the Lich King is of no use to me, then, from now on, it is up to you Dreadlord to command the Scourge Legion."

As he finished speaking, Akmund glanced disdainfully at the Death Knight on horseback in the distance.

He, Akmund, remembered very well that from the moment he came, that little worm had never shown the slightest humility to himself, but he was just a little worm, and he dared to be so arrogant to himself? Hum! If he hadn't been able to use the other party, he would have reached out and pinched the other party to death at once, and now, confiscating his military power is just the beginning!

Hearing each other's words, Arthas couldn't believe his ears! The shock and anger in his heart almost couldn't be stopped! He and Kel'thugad worked so hard that they almost lost their lives to summon this bastard.

And now, they are getting such a reward? As soon as he came out, he deprived himself of the command of the Scourge Legion?

How so? Could it be that all he did was to get the sentence that the Lich King has no use value? What a joke! Why is this happening? Well, if it's true, as the other party said, that even the Lich King is worthless now, then, what about yourself? What does this mean for you?

Kel'thugad no longer had eyes, only two white soul fires in his eye sockets, and he couldn't give Arthas any hints in his eyes, let alone speak rashly at this time, so he could only stretch out his boneless hand and gently press the arm guard of Arthas's hand that was gripping the horse's reins.

"Humph! Soon, I will give the order to begin an invasion of the world of Azeroth. But first, I'm going to make an example of these insignificant mages...... I will destroy their city, turn it into the dust of history, and let everyone understand what will happen to those who stand in the way of my Akmund's coming! ”

With that, the Demon Lord Akmund turned and strode in the direction of Dalaran, his body straight, majestic and arrogant, and his steps firm and decisive.

Dusk came, and the hideous armor on his body glittered in the twilight of the setting sun, and beside him, Tikdios, who had been bowing his head all along, began to stride after him like a clown.

"You, Kel'thugad! Are you sure it's not a joke? We worked hard to get such a reward? So what's going on with the two of us now? Two clowns? ”

As soon as Akmund was gone, Arthas turned on Kel'thugad, knowing that this would be the end, and that Alsace would never steal the Book of Medivan, nor would he let Kelthugad summon that mean and ungrateful evil bastard! Well, maybe the Death Knight is a bit inappropriate to describe Akmund as evil, after all, they are technically the same kind......

"Please be patient, Arthas, the Lich King has foreseen the situation in front of him, and in his grand plan, you will have more important things to do, and the Lich King needs you very much." Kel'thugad replied in his hoarse voice.

But when Arthas heard this, he turned sharply to the necromancer, his nose fluttering with anger, but he still held back the anger in his heart. Now, he began to understand that he, to Akmund, and to the Lich King, was nothing more than a pitiful pawn!

However, he Alsace will not compromise!

From now on, anyone - whether it was the demons or the Lich King - if they thought that he Arthas was just a tool to be used and discarded, they were mistaken, and he Arthas would make them pay!

At this point, he Alsace has done so muchβ€”and lost so much, and at the same time, he has given up too much of himself, and he must not just be discarded like a used scrap!

How can all this he did be in vain? All this will not be in vain! He swore in his heart! Never!

At this moment, the seeds of hatred for rebellion against the Lich King and rebellion against demonic rule were planted in the heart of Arthas, the death knight! He swore that he Alsace would never again be a pawn at the mercy of others! Never again!

In the distance, as Arthas's mind was racing, Akmund was finally ready to make a move......

"Hehehe...... Mortals, you still want to run away right under my nose? You will find that this is completely futile! ”

The earth trembled, and the death horse under his crotch began to toss and turn anxiously again, raising his front hooves as if trying to touch the ground as little as possible, and at the same time, Arthas immediately turned his head in horror to look at the city of mages, Dalaran.

The towers are at their most beautiful at this time of day, shining in the fading twilight, splendid and magnificent, exuding a mesmerizing magical light.

But just as he was looking at the beautiful scenery, a deep popping sound was heard. The spire of the tallest and most beautiful tower in the city suddenly collapsed, and it tumbled slowly and inevitably as if it had been crushed by the hand of an invisible giant.

The rest of the city soon collapsed and turned to dust, and the sound of destruction rumbled in Arthas's ears, shaking him so terrified that he never dared to look away......

All this reminded him of the scene in Silvermoon City..... he at that time was also easily destroyed by the enemy by similar means...... He still remembered the endless light that destroyed everything......

He Alsace still remembered how similar the scene he saw when he struggled to get up from the beach in Silvermoon City.

It's also in the blink of an eye, a beautiful and magnificent city, disappearing in an instant, saying no, it's gone...... The position of Dalaran in the distance, like the original Silver Moon City, was also razed to the ground in the blink of an eye......

Arthas secretly gritted his teeth, and his hands pinched the reins of the war horse tighter! At this moment, Arthas desperately wants to gain power, Frost Grief is not enough, he needs more, more power, the power to control his own destiny, the power to destroy everything......

……

"Santis..., do you feel it too? That power is ......"

In the distance, in a secret Night Elf camp in the mountains north of the Tirisfard glades, the Grand Druid Malfurion, still sneaking around to gather information? Fury Wind and Sentinel General Santis? At the same time, Yuyue looked in the direction of the south in shock, and they all felt the terrifying aura that had just suddenly appeared in the south, and here, there was even someone summoning ...... The archdemon of the Burning Legion?

"Yes, Lord Great Druid! I still remember this feeling vividly...... They appeared just 10,000 years ago! I still remember ....."

Santis? Hazuki bit her lip tightly, of course she knew what the oppressive feeling was coming from the south, it was the breath of the Great Demon! It's just that she doesn't know who it is? Sargeras? Or is it ...... Akmund? Either way, she knew that the world of Azeroth was in serious trouble!

"Shantis..... let your sisters come back, there's no need to track them down, we need to go back as soon as possible, so that the people can prepare early. I'm afraid..., alas...... Another great war like the one of antiquity is coming......"

Grand Druid Malfurion looked deeply to the south, and before he could think of a way to heal the polluted land, another more evil and terrifying being came at this time.

"Yes! I'll do it right now, and we'll be on the road by evening at the latest!" ”

Aware of the seriousness of the problem, Santis? Hazuki hurriedly saluted and hurried away, she needed to summon the sisters of the sentinels who had scattered back with her owl, and then, in the shortest possible time, they had to get back to Kalimdor as quickly as possible!
