Chapter 342: Prologue to the Death of Azeroth in the Last Volume
"Bang dang!!"
The teacup suddenly fell from Sylvanas's hand and shattered.
The beautiful Dark Ranger sat on the throne of the old Lordaeron, his eyes wide open, and he couldn't breathe for a moment.
It's him.
It has always been him.
Sylvanas was silent, looking to the far north.
At this moment, another woman walked in from the side of the palace, with the same shocked expression as Sylvanas.
"Do you feel it?" said Galya, cautiously probing.
"Hmm. ”
Sylvanas nodded and said slowly, "I don't know what's going on, but that guy... All of a sudden, the strength skyrocketed a lot, which I couldn't have imagined. ”
There is no longer any connection between them and Xue Huan, at least not by the latter, but as former subordinate undead, perhaps the connection between them still remains.
"Galya, it looks like our plans need to be rushed. Sylvanas rose uneasily from his throne.
She picked up her bow on the side, then glanced at the Dreadlord imprisoned in the corner, smiled, and strode out of the palace.
At the same time, thousands of miles away in Stormwind, the new king, Varian Wrynn, was pacing back and forth in his palace.
Two opened letterheads were placed on the king's table, with a green arrow emblem printed on them, one of which was carefully read by Varian in his hand.
"Is all this information true?
Varian Ureon, the heroic new king of Stormwind, frowned, not looking very happy.
Also, any king who receives so much bothersome news during the recovery of his kingdom will also feel a headache.
"This is the information that the agents at the front brought back after crossing a series of dangerous areas such as the Endless Sea, the Tirisfal Glade, the Hillsbrad Hills, the Arathi Heights, and the Danmorrow, you know, my majesty, the Tirisfal Glade is now full of undead, and if you are not careful, it is possible..."
"Getting to the point. Wari soothed his forehead, apparently too lazy to listen to the minutiae with limited time.
"Oh, yes, Your Majesty. ”
Worthon Flimore nodded like a peck of rice, then cleared his throat and changed to a serious expression, and said: "According to the intelligence, not long ago, there was a strong energy induction in the Northrend area, and it seems that there is a big battle there, and according to the information provided by the Explorers Guild stationed in Northrend, it is likely to be related to those undead. ”
Undead?
Varian sighed, the undead again.
Since the destruction of Lordaeron by those undead, the bad news has come one after another, and the situation in the entire Eastern Kingdom has been in turmoil.
Behind the fall of the Scourge Legion plague to the Scourge of large lands such as Lordaeron, Quel'Thalas, and Dalaran was the influx of refugees to the south, and Varian opened his doors to take them in, just as Terenus had treated his people after the fall of the Stormwind Kingdom.
He always remembered that in his most frustrating and painful days, it was the benevolent king who took him in, and from then on, the young king took Tyrenus as a model for his actions.
As for this holy war, as the king of Stormwind, Varian was not afraid, and he ordered the entire Stormwind to be fully prepared to deal with those scourge monsters that were about to go south, but the expected war did not come.
At the time, Varian was still a little confused, but now it seems that the spirits have gone to the far north.
Speaking of the undead, Varian suddenly remembered another annoyance, he turned and walked to the table, put down the Chinese document in his hand, and then picked up another document and read it carefully.
"Where are they now?" asked Varian, reading the letterhead.
"Do you mean Princess Gianna and the King of Arthas?" asked Worthen rhetorically.
Alsace... King?
Somehow, Varian suddenly felt like laughing.
The king?
But he still held back, after all, as a king, he must always pay attention to his image in the eyes of his subordinates, and that guy... I guess I'm feeling very uncomfortable right now.
Thinking of this, Varian coughed and said solemnly, "Of course! I mean, didn't they retreat in the direction of Stormwind?"
According to MI7's report, Arthas led his troops to Dalaran, but was defeated by the leader of the Scourge Legion, and Alexandros was killed on the spot.
It's not just Varian, this makes Worthon Freemore, the head of MI7, a little confused.
However, Worthen still truthfully reported all the results of his investigation: "Your Majesty, it is true that the King of Alsace has not retreated in our direction, and according to the latest intelligence from the front, it seems that their troops have gone west. ”
West...
Wari soothed his jaw, thoughtful, what else was there besides the harbor and coast that had been ravaged by the undead?
Wait, a flash of inspiration flashed in Varian's mind, and he suddenly realized... Ports, coasts?
They... Going to sea?
Distant on the continent of Kalimdor, in the dust swamps, after several days of long voyages, a fleet finally arrived at the East Coast port.
"Compared to the prosperity of the Eastern Kingdoms, this place is indeed quite barren. ”
In the tower, a blond, blue-eyed woman is looking at a map.
It's been half a month since I arrived on the Kalimdor continent.
The map in front of Gianna was reluctantly hand-drawn by the sentinel after scouting the surrounding map, but after a lot of effort, it only detected the distance of a few hundred miles around it.
After Xue Huan defeated Arthas, Gianna had been thinking about the way forward, and at this time she recalled Medivan's words in her mind, so instead of going south to join the Stormwind Kingdom, she took the initiative to move all the remaining troops to this relatively strange and distant continent of Kalimdor.
After all, history is still developing along its trajectory, even if it is late, but this country ruled by Gianna Proudmoore in history, Theramore, has finally been established.
The port city of Salamo is located on the island of Salamo, and of course, this originally uninhabited island was named after Gianna when he arrived.
Today, the country is still in its development phase and has a mixed composition.
In addition to a small number of mages who survived the Battle of Dalaran, it also included some of the old army of Lordaeron, the dwarves of Ironforge and the people of Kul Tiras, and its strong inclusiveness was also inseparable from its rapid development.
Unlike the Eastern Kingdoms, which Gianna was already familiar with, she needed more manpower and material resources to start anew in this continent where everything was full of unknowns. She plans to replicate the success of Kurtiras and turn Salamo into a port city with a strong maritime industry.
But after leaving some of the dwarves behind, Muradin left some of the dwarves behind and left them back at Ironforge, and now Gianna has a real person in his hands is a Bridge.
And Alsace...
At the mention of this name, Gianna was a little irritable, and her face was full of sorrow on her unbelievably beautiful face.
Simply because after they landed on the East Coast, Alsace turned out to be... Missing.
There was no sign of a human kidnapping, no warning of an enemy invasion, and everything seemed to indicate that the guy had run away on his own.
Troubles always come one after another.
She also felt the energy fluctuations coming from Northrend, how could Gianna, who had only fought Xue Huan not long ago, not know what was going on.
But now that Theramore is just beginning to develop, according to the scouts, the Northern Barrens and Durotar, which are not too far from them, are gathering an orc army, and it seems that those guys are also preparing to use this continent as their base.
The worse news was that, according to reports from the scouts in the rear, her father, Admiral Dalein Proudmoore, was also arriving at the place.
As a hero who made a name for herself in the Second War, Gianna knew that her father hated the orcs very much, but Gianna herself preferred to cooperate rather than kill.
She has already lost so much for this...
They need to work together for a win-win situation, not to mention that in the far north, they still have something in common, and I am afraid that they already have an even more terrifying enemy.
Whether it is humans, orcs or elves, whether it is the firmly established Varian, the developing Sylvanas and Gianna, or the slowly recovering national power of Quel'Salas and Dalaran, now, all the forces of Azeroth have reached a consensus.
Right now...
Their time is precious.
