Chapter 583: The End of the Northern Expedition
The Divine Venerable returned triumphantly, and the battle of the Northern Expedition to Northrend immediately began to move on to the next stage.
In the Icecrown Glacier region, the Silver Northern Expedition's large selection league has come to an end, and a large number of elite members of all races and factions have passed the trials of the Grand Crusade and have finally been selected, and soon they will be the first to storm the Icecrown fortress and establish a vanguard camp and a beachhead in the fortress.
Maybe they won't survive, maybe they'll wipe it out, or maybe they'll kill all sides and complete the mission.
Regardless of the outcome, the deeds of these heroes will go down in history, they did what no one else could do, and they were the warriors of Azeroth.
The leader of this vanguard death squad has also been determined, and the two fierce girls Gianna and Princess Kalia have successfully ascended to the throne.
But then again, if there is anyone in this world who hates Arthas, the Lich King, the most, it must be these two murderous women.
One is an ex-girlfriend and the other is a sister, these two girls are already sharpening their knives at the moment, just waiting for Tirio Fording to give an order, and rush into the fortress with the advance team to kill and kill to vent their anger.
Of course, the Forsaken are also very enthusiastic, and they will attack from the sky with the two airships of the Alliance Tribes, directly in the middle of the towering tower of the Icecrown Fortress, and cooperate with the Silver Northern Expeditionary Army that has attacked the lowest area to flank up and down, and when they are united, the various armies of the Northern Expedition will attack the Frozen Throne and confront the Lich King head-on.
And recently, newspapers and media all over the world have been overwhelmingly promoting and exaggerating one thing: there must be a Lich King to continue to exist, and if there is no Lich King in this world, then the remnants of the undead Scourge will definitely get out of control.
It is a bit unrealistic to completely eliminate the natural scourge, after all, no one knows the specific number and scale of the undead natural disaster, and it is estimated that even the Lich King himself does not know an exact number, so even if there are ten or twenty lowly ghouls or skeleton soldiers left, the natural disaster plague has the possibility of a comeback.
Therefore, there must be a sane and peaceful new Lich King to take over, control the undead scourge that seems to never be killed all over the continent of Northrend, and bind them to the Far North forever, so as not to harm society.
This argument is now gaining a lot of support around the world, and everyone feels that a new Lich King will have to be chosen to bind the Undead Scourge to the Icecrown region.
The various media themselves have given specific candidates: Tirio Fortin, Lord of the Light, Grand Duke Bervar Fortagen, Sylvanas, Queen of Darkness.
The first two are noble and upright knights, and both are willing to make great sacrifices for the sake of the world of Azeroth.
As for Sylvanas, the Queen of Darkness, needless to say, she was nominated by various media outlets in the Night Empire.
And the reason, naturally, is the queen of the Eternal Night God Emperor, and letting Sylvanas be the new Lich King is not only in line with the identity of the Forsaken, but also does not have to worry about what will happen in the future.
As far as Sarodar is doting, if Sylvanas becomes the Lich King, the old Titan rascal will do his best to look after her.
In this way, the current Lich King Arthas is still sitting on the Frozen Throne and jumping around, and the Northern Expedition Coalition forces below have begun to think about the next Lich King.
And there's no respect anymore!
Just look down on people like that!
Well... Well, if you look around the world, it seems that no one really takes the Lich King seriously...
What are you kidding, the ancient gods have killed two, and they will be afraid of you, the Lich King?
That is, the Titan God is extremely lazy, and he usually doesn't want to do anything serious, and he is paralyzed at home every day, except for super big things like the ancient gods, he doesn't want to do it himself at all, otherwise you Alsace would have been pulled down from the frozen throne and paraded around the world.
Aren't you a Titan? Aren't you the protagonist?
In this regard, Boss Hu said that there is no existence, and he will not become the protagonist with a sense of existence in this life, that is, he is paralyzed in the Eternal Night Palace every day, eating and drinking to maintain his life, the protagonist is tired of thieves and chickens, who likes to do it, the old man thinks that Oscar * flashes that dwarf is good... Ahem.
But on the other hand, everyone understands this.
After all, the dignified Titan gods, if any cat or dog went into battle in person, wouldn't it be a big loss of face and identity?
Well... Although Boss Hu has always had no face and discipline, this is the point!
In this realistic and cruel world, there is no stupid and naïve person who will shout that the more powerful you are, the greater the responsibility, and you must be responsible for the task of world peace and so on.
To put it mildly, no one owes anyone, and no one owes you, it's their own business to be strong, and it's their duty to be willing to help you, and it's their duty to be unwilling to help you, and there is no market for moral kidnapping in the world of Azeroth.
After all, even a good person like the human Tirisfa Guardian who has contributed to the entire continent has only started to work hard after taking the benefit of an extremely large amount of power essence.
Even Gianna, who was the naïve and innocent virgin at the beginning, only condemned the tyrannical dictatorship of the Titan Salodar and the great purge within the alliance, and she never said that since you are so powerful, as a god, you must be busy saving the world every day.
It's still the same sentence, no one owes anyone, this is the real world, there is not so much blood upsurge and righteousness and bravery, and there are not so many heroic protagonists.
Everyone is very busy, and they don't have the time to take care of others, so let's get the things at hand done first.
The top of the Icecrown Fortress, the Frozen Throne.
The Lich King sat quietly on his throne like a statue.
Arthas got his wish, the coins of the Trevi Fountain of Dalaran were revealed, and he was given a cool, comfortable seat.
But deep down, the spiritual struggle has never ended.
Arthas's humanity is still alive, he is resisting the fusion of Neozu, resisting his mission as the Lich King, he is still the prince of Lordaeron who cares for the people and the benevolence.
"Your Royal Highness, will you protect us?"
"Of course, for the sake of the people, I am willing to pay any price. ”
The conversation with the little boy Timmy in the Eastern Plague Land back then was still full of Arthas's humanity, and perhaps it was precisely because of the resistance of this part of humanity that the Lich King had not ordered the Scourge Legion to expand unlimitedly, otherwise the Northrend continent would have completely fallen.
Maybe... It's going to be over soon.
I am Arthas, I am the prince of Lordaeron, I am guilty, but I will never have a chance to atone for my sins.
