Chapter 90: Escape
The darkness of the night completely enveloped the boundless sky.
The bright moon, worshipped by the High Elves' relatives and the pointed ears of another tribe called the Night Elves, leaped out of the end of the night, and sprinkled a serene and moving silver veil on the kingdom of Quel'Thalas, as it had done in the past.
However, today's Kingdom of Quel'Salas has no longer the mood and atmosphere of indulgence and joy under the silver moonlight of the past.
Because, the manifestation of the Scourge Legion is powerful and powerful, and it has exceeded the imagination of all the high-level people with pointed ears.
After losing the protection of the Great Shield of the Rune of Eternal Song, the outer city of Silvermoon City was attacked by the combined land and air forces of the Lich King's army, and it only lasted for one day before it was swallowed up and overwhelmed by the massive undead army that was fighting more and more and stronger.
A gorgeous High Elf building that collapsed in flames.
Gray death energy mixed with frost stained most of the city's ground a gray-blue.
By evening, the endless warriors of the Scourges had begun to surround the last bastion of the High Elves, the inner city of the Silver Moon, which had gathered almost the remnants of the essence of the entire Kingdom of Quel'Salas, the Court of the Sunstriders.
Probably because the area that the turtle needs to defend after shrinking into the royal court is extremely reduced, and under the accumulation of ten thousand years in the royal court of the high elves, all kinds of magic props and potions are very sufficient.
The remnants of the hundreds of heroic High Elf archmages, led by their King Anastarian, are as hard and stubborn as a stone wrapped in sea water in the endless waves of the undead!
The last essence power of these high elves completely gave up defense, and unscrupulously squandered the extremely dense and infinite magical energy on the battlefield, forming one powerful flame, thunder and other extremely lethal legion-level spells one after another, covering the sky and earth of the entire Silver Moon City in a short period of time, and even several times in a row, using powerful magic to sweep away the undead in the entire Silver Moon City.
However, this is only the last flash of glory before the fall of the High Elves.
As the patience of the higher-ups of the Scourgeon Legion ran out, as dozens of high-level abominations appeared, carrying a huge and magnificent eternal ice crystal, on the outskirts of Silvermoon City.
The last struggle of the High Elves was finally broken by the more powerful force of death!
A powerful spiritual force that changed the color of all of them suddenly emerged from the Eternal Ice Crystal, directly breaking through the spiritual forces that manipulated spells in the sky above the Silver Moon Royal Court, destroying their spiritual defenses.
In just a moment, the powerful spells in the sky that were still converging quickly collapsed into a colorful elemental glow after being manipulated by the lost controller.
They, like the most brilliant fireworks, lit up the cheeks of all the pale and utterly desperate High Elf warriors in the court of all the Sunseekers······
——————————————————————
The strong wind of the galloping was coming, accompanied by the heavy wheezing of the chocobo mount under his crotch, and the sound of colliding with the forest branches and leaves as he galloped, ringing in Luo Ning's ears one after another.
After the outer city of Silvermoon King City was breached by a natural disaster, the young human archmage and his wife, Winresa Windrunner, did not have time to retreat to the inner city where the court of the Sunstrider was located.
They could only lead the thousands of ranger warriors who also had no time to retreat from the inner city and some panicked High Elf civilians who gathered, taking advantage of the chaos when the city was broken, and rushed out of the city directly.
Perhaps in this kind of battle of tens of millions of people, the team of thousands of people is too small; Perhaps the main force of the Scourge Legion at that time, under the leadership of the Lich King, was ravaging the court of the Sunstrider in the inner city of Silvermoon with all its might.
In addition to experiencing some skirmishes during the breakout, they successfully broke through a detachment of thousands of natural calamity cannon fodder divisions, and rushed into the Yongge Forest on the other side, which was full of ancient trees and bushes, and was now full of the smell of corpses.
Only now, this group of high elves who escaped from the core of the battlefield and survived in front of them have relaxed a little.
However, almost all the pointed ears who escaped by chance know that the once glorious and powerful kingdom of Quel'Salas, which has lasted on this continent for 10,000 years, is dead!
After temporarily escaping the pressure of survival, almost all of the High Elves felt dazed and helpless.
With the demise of the mother country, what should be the next step?
"Luo Ning, what should we do now?"
Wenlesa rode the Landing Chobler towards Ronin, standing beside the human archmage and asked in a low voice.
Just now, she led her Ranger Guard, stopping a small wave of High Elf clansmen who were carried away by hatred and tried to rush back to Silvermoon City and the undead desperately.
As the youngest daughter of the three sisters of the famous Windranger family among the High Elves, the illustrious glory of the former family has made her the leader of this exiled elf tribe, and she will naturally be responsible for the future fate of the remnants of this High Elf.
"The Legion of Death of the Undead Scourge is the enemy of all living beings on the entire continent, Winlessa, and now we can only pin our hopes on the Holy Arathor Empire!"
Luo Ning tightly shook the cold little hand of his lover beside him and said calmly.
Even in the extremely tense and hurried atmosphere when he had just fled, this young and wise human archmage still sensed the true strength of the natural calamity undead in general.
The three-digit hero-level silver powerhouse, as well as the spiritual power that appeared behind him that was far beyond imagination, in Luo Ning's mind, there was and only the current human divine empire could match.
At this moment, round after round of light blue magical circles of teleportation suddenly appeared in front of their fleeing team.
"You're right, Ronin!"
Countless ranger warriors raised their bows and arrows, wound their arrows, and aimed there, but soon the words of the one who led from the appearance there made their originally sad faces change suddenly.
"It's Your Royal Highness, you're still alive!"
"Great, His Royal Highness the Prince is still alive, and we still have hope!"
"Tell the rest of the clan the good news!"
······
In the end, it was the royal family that had ruled the entire High Elf Kingdom for 10,000 years, and when Kael'thas Sunchaser appeared in front of these High Elf outcasts, all the High Elves who had just felt dazed and helpless were like finding their backbone, and their morale was instantly uplifted.
"I'm glad you're okay, Your Highness!"
While lamenting the huge disparity in prestige between his wife and the Prince of the Sunseeker, Luo Ning and his equally excited wife, Wen Lesa, jumped off the chocobo and bowed to His Royal Highness.
In the final siege, His Majesty Anastarian, who may have been a little ominous, ordered the prince to go to the sunwell to investigate, and accidentally saved Kael'thas's life.
However, this can't change the decline of the High Elves in this messianic-influenced timeline, and the twenty-three surviving archmages and 350 spellbreakers on Quel'Salas Island were teleported together with the prince, plus the thousands of High Elf remnants led by Ronin and Winlessa, which is the last remaining strength of the once powerful High Elf Kingdom.
"No need to be polite."
Also in grief, the prince, who was barely in his spirits, waved his hand to Luo Ning and the others.
"Please gather the rest of our clansmen, after the Yongge Rune Barrier is broken, the shield on the teleportation array has failed."
"I will lead you to the nearest royal secret teleportation array and leave the Eternal Song Forest!"
With that, he once again glanced sadly at Silvermoon City, which had been completely engulfed by darkness, and with a ruthless heart, he took the lead in walking towards the northeast side of the Eternal Song Forest.
