Under the darkness of the night, a thick layer of dark clouds shrouded the royal city of Lordaeron, located in the heart of the Tirisfal glade.

In the middle of the night, still brightly lit in the royal court, the mood of all the Lordaeron magnates and officials who were still working urgently was as depressed and irritable as this gloomy weather.

"Report to Your Majesty, Viscount Milk's entire line has fallen."

"Your Majesty, a third of the Earldom of Krent has been breached by the plague of the undead, and Your Excellency the Earl has requested assistance."

"Your Majesty, Natorun, Fernanlo, and Viscount Karl led the remnants of the people to flee to the Duchy of Lombala, countless skeletons are pursuing them, and the commander of the Duchy is requesting the support of the First Wing of the Silver Hand."

Thanks to the Violet Sage's optimization of the teleportation spell, the bad news that broke out from all corners of this huge thousand-year-old kingdom entered this palace through many convenient teleportation communication spells as soon as possible.

Several Lordaeron court illusion mages in purple robes were at the center of the palace hall, their hands channeling lilac magic towards the center of where they stood.

A three-dimensional war map of Lordaeron, composed of illusions unleashed by mages, is updated clearly and in real time as bad news continues to come.

"Send the Second Wing of the Silver Hand and order them to the County of Krent."

"Order the 1st Wing to return from Milk, and go directly to the Duchy of Lombala for reinforcements."

"Please ask the 300 Paladins directly under the command of His Excellency Commander Tulayan to go to the territory of Markla to defend against the invasion of the undead on the eastern flank."

A group of staff officers and non-priestly generals of the Lordaeron military headquarters stood next to the map, constantly giving orders to the heralds around them to move and rescue.

Behind these generals, the monarch of Lordaeron, Tyrynas Minethir II, sat on a high throne, surrounded by a circle of true nobles who stood at the top of the kingdom with hereditary titles of earl and above.

These high-ranking powers who really dominated everything in Lordaeron, together with their sovereign at this moment, looked at the three-dimensional map representing the border of Lordaeron with a sullen face.

Since Arthas, the son of His Majesty Terenus, discovered the plot of the Viscount of Moldor to be replaced by the undead, the entire Eastern Kingdom, which had maintained harmony and stability for nearly a decade, collapsed overnight.

The evil religion called the Psychic Church behind the incident of the death of Viscount Moldor quickly launched a long-hidden follow-up soon after Alsace returned to the royal capital to report it.

The entire human nations in the Alliance, countless rural aristocratic territories and some remote villages, all became a paradise for the undead overnight.

On the three-dimensional war map of Lordaeron in front of the king and the nobles, the warning range of the red undead plague has expanded from a dozen cities to one-fifth of the entire Lordaeron in just two weeks, and it is still spreading rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.

"The Paladins of the Silver Hand and the Priest of the Holy Light have all been sent to the war zone by their subordinates."

"The situation is getting less and less optimistic!"

"Your Majesty, our priesthood is seriously insufficient!"

A high-ranking general who had just given the battle order stopped his command, turned to his majesty on the throne and said.

In this man-made catastrophe, the largest number of warriors, thieves, assassins, and other warriors in the kingdom often needed 5-0 in the face of lifeless and sentient corpses and skeletons, in order to compare the lethality of a priest to the undead.

Not to mention the most vicious plague virus, as long as the wounds on the body are slightly damaged in the process of killing these undead, then except for the clergy or other strong people above the rank of professional heroes, the rest of the low-level professionals will be infected and assimilated into the undead in a short period of time, and in turn deal with the allies.

"We hope to get more reinforcements from the Holy Light Cross Church of the Holy Arathor Empire, and we need more Paladins, more Glory Priests, and the Church of Judgment."

The general glanced up at the king and nobles in front of him, hesitated, and continued.

"Your Majesty, I have to advise you and your lords that this plague of the undead caused by the traitor Kel'thugad in Dalaran is spreading faster and faster."

"According to the calculations of the court mages, Your Majesty, if it is in a week, more than half of Lordaeron's territory will be infected."

"In two weeks' time, apart from those who believe in Yahweh, there will be no other living people in the whole of Lordaeron!"

The general's words caused the other staff officers to temporarily stop their work and look at the king on the throne together.

After the beginning of this inexplicable outbreak of the plague of the undead, with the full cooperation of the whole alliance, the controller behind the terrorist organization of the Psychic Church, Kel'thugad, has surfaced, and the older generation of strong people such as Lothar, Uther, and Antonidas are forming a group to hunt down the traitor.

But after all, it was discovered too late, and this plague is far more terrible than the original history, at least, the "natural disaster plague" in the original history was only produced after the food was poisoned, and the undead who were infected in the "natural disaster plague" were not strong in the secondary infection ability.

And now, under the influence of the rapid development of Dalaran's magical technology in recent years, Kel'thugad, who has not yet transformed into the Great Lich, has produced a new type of contemporary undead plague, just like the "virus" in a movie called Resident Evil in Messiah's previous life, which has terrifying re-infection capabilities.

It is no wonder that a terrifying virus of this level will be so serious under the identification of the court mage.

The entire hall was silent for a long time as the general spoke, and finally, the deep voice of His Majesty Terenus on the throne was heard.

"I see, Commander, please continue to command the defense!"

After the general returned to command, the king patted the armrest on the right side of the throne, and a magical shield that blocked out sound rose from the ground, enveloping him and all the great nobles.

The king looked at the nobles who had been silent in front of him, and said with great weariness.

"You once suspected that this plague was a conspiracy of the Arathso Empire, but Tulayan on the front line told me that the reason why those untouchables who believe in Yahweh do not rise up again to take revenge on us after losing the virus is because the moment they die, their souls go to heaven, and not remain in their bodies as soul fire for those low-level necromancers to drive."

"I used to think that the power and glory of Lordaeron for thousands of years was so great that we could resist any threat or tribulation."

"But alas, I was wrong!"

In just two weeks, the once supreme ruler of Lordaeron seemed to be a ten-year-old monarch, and he stood up with some difficulty holding on to his throne.

"The royal family's inner guard told me."

"Two hours ago, the kingdom of Stormgard, where a quarter of the kingdom had already fallen, King Sola Stolbain had announced his abdication in Fort Riptide."

"That warrior, in order to save his people, has given up most of his feudal strength and become a member of the holy nobility of the Arathas Empire, under the appointment of my son-in-law's envoy and with the blessing of a cardinal archbishop of the Holy Light Cross Church."

According to the available information, the Holy Arathus Empire is the only country that has quickly extinguished the plague of the undead in its territory, and it is also known to have the most priests, but to ask for help from this country that has not joined the alliance, and is even faintly hostile to the six human countries in the alliance, according to the emperor's order, the human kingdom of the alliance must give up the name of independent monarch and establish the Holy Light Cross Church as the state religion.

"Guys, is there anything else you have to say?"

The old man, who was about to become the last monarch of the Lordan Lenminehil dynasty, walked among the great nobles, and looked at these once loyal vassals, and felt powerless in his heart.

If before the undead plague arrived, he could still unite with the New Storm Kingdom, control the power of the entire alliance of the six human countries, and compete with the Holy Arathor Empire, then once this damn undead plague came, all his brilliant plans would be reduced to fantasy.

The great nobles present all bowed their heads in grief when they saw the old lord in front of them and did not speak.

In fact, at this time, the advantage of the Messiah to make Karen Rosa the monarch of the Holy Arathor was revealed, and Cullen was once the direct bloodline of the ancient Arathor Empire, so that Lordaeron from the king to any old-fashioned and old-fashioned earl could finally accept the result of submission in his heart, instead of fighting to the death like other untouchables rebelled.

After a long while, a marquis of the kingdom in a luxurious dress stood up hesitantly and said to everyone in the soundproof circle.

"Your Majesty, gentlemen, you also know the system of the Holy Arathso Empire, for the sake of our future life being comfortable."

"In the aftermath of this catastrophe, we should strongly support the belief in the Three Virtues of the people, plus Archbishop Benedictas"

The marquis gushed out anti-empire, anti-church reactionary remarks, and the rest of the nobles glanced at the acquiescing face of King Terenus standing in the center, and suddenly understood something in their hearts, and the atmosphere instantly became lively.

Unlike the transcendent nobles who disregard the lives of civilians, the Church of the Holy Light Cross, which has been able to determine that it has a true God background, attaches great importance to the lives of civilians.

In just a few minutes, more than twenty paladins, priests of the Holy Light, and people who believed in it who had held the Three Virtues hostage against the Holy Light Cross Church after the Dead's Holocaust, and made the Holy Arathus Empire make a conspiracy to make concessions in feudal power, which was instantly revealed in the mouths of these nobles.

Just when these powers ** were blinded by the old-fashioned aristocracy, the discussion was in full swing.

"Boom!"

Another loud roar, with a slight tremor, came from the direction of the Basilica of the Three Virtues of Light next to the palace
