Before leaving, Xue Huan couldn't help but come to this place.

A huge ice cellar, surrounded by an eerie chill, shattered ice crystal fragments scattered on the ground, or nailed deep into the ice wall like sharp bone needles.

It was the ruins of the sword he had drawn from the cavern where Frostmourn had been sealed, and now it had been transformed into a sophisticated chamber of ice by the Lich King's evil powers.

Here, his last unquenched conscience is frozen.

Before he could get closer, a huge piece of ice had already come into Xue Huan's eyes.

The girl in the dream slept quietly in the ice, curled up like a newborn baby.

"Nia..."

Xue Huan, who was wearing a black death knight's armor, walked closer, his rough and sturdy boots rubbing against the snow with a "creaking" sound, he slowly stretched out his right hand, and gently rubbed it back and forth on the transparent ice surface.

The girl is still as pure and moving as he saw at the beginning, she is wearing plain clothes, her crystal skin reflects a faint clear light, like water and silver, beautiful and incomprehensible, sleeping quietly in the ice, like a sleeping beauty in a fairy tale.

Nia's injuries weren't serious, but the girl's frail health from an early age, and the fact that her injuries were not brought under control in time meant that the Lich King had to seal her in the ice to freeze Nia's life.

And when he leaves the Frozen Throne, the Lich King also vaguely reveals some ways to delay Nia's life.

The Sacred Well of the Sun is a source of magic in the heart of Quel'Salas, guarded by the Divine High Elves, a vast source that has been supplying the elves with a constant supply of magical energy.

Legend has it that the Well of the Sun, which is loved by the elves, can also cure all diseases, and its healing effect is even more exaggerated than the holy light worshiped by the priests, and if the spring water of the Well of the Sun can be obtained, then Nia's life is hopeful.

The name "Quel'Thalas" Xue Huan had a certain impression, even if he didn't want to recall that past.

I remember that when I was assisting Terenus and the others in their fight against the orc army, I vaguely captured this name from the mouths of those humans, it is located in the northernmost part of the entire Eastern Kingdom, and it is the home of the High Elves for survival.

This magnificent elven city is surrounded by the beautiful and rich Silvermoon Forest, and during the Second Orc War, Orgrim Doomhammer attempted to send a small force and unite with the Amani trolls to attack this beautiful city, but was defeated by Tulayan and Aurelia who rushed to help.

Unexpectedly, in that rich land, such a miraculous well water was bred.

Looking at Ice Crystal Nenia's gentle face, Xue Huan wanted to lead the Scourge Legion to scorch the place immediately, but reason told him that the time had not come.

The elves who are accustomed to seclusion are xenophobic by nature, conservative and stubborn, extremely disgusted with aliens, it is not easy to break into their interior, coupled with the fact that they are born with a sensitivity to magic and evil beyond ordinary humans, an ordinary great magician can easily break through the disguise of the dead.

At this point, even the Lich King Naozu was torn to the core.

He had tried to sow plague and curse in Quel'Thalas, and bribed him to install his evil followers, but the clever High Elf leader always recognized the aura of death hiding in the shadows at a glance and contained it in time.

After repeated unsuccessful attempts, Naozu also decisively gave up this plan.

So it would be the most unwise to make Quel'Thalas the primary strategic objective, even if it is the closest living country to Northrend.

Xue Huan lay his whole body on the ice crystals, his eyes staring directly at Nia's sleeping face, and the breath he exhaled condensed into a layer of hoarfrost on the ice.

Memories of the past poured into his mind together, the girl's stammering cute appearance when she was nervous, the shyness when she was teased by him, and the gentleness and loveliness when she took care of him.

Everything is so clear and impressive, and the long memories seem as if they happened yesterday.

He has been rejected by countless girls, but Nia opens her heart to him, and she will be by his side unrestrained, sometimes with an innocent smile, sometimes shy like the girl next door.

If you want to talk about the only thing he has no regrets since he came to this continent, it is that he met this cute and distressing stupid girl.

She didn't deserve it.

Thinking of this, Xue Huan finally couldn't suppress the grief and indignation in his heart, he clenched his fist hard, and slammed it on the ice hard, making a "dong dong" crashing sound.

He knew that with his strength, he would not be able to shatter this solid ice crystal, but he was not reconciled, she was so close that she could not be touched as far away as the stars in the sky.

"Whew..."

The agitated mood gradually calmed down, his mood had not fluctuated so violently in a long time since he pulled out the frost sorrow, and he exhaled a cloudy breath, and a trace of determination flashed in his chaotic eyes.

"I'll save you. ”

The voice was almost inaudible, as if it were whispering to itself, as if it was making a silent promise.

Then, he regained his former calm appearance, and his hideous pale face was only indifferent and arrogant.

One last glance at Nya sleeping among the ice crystals, he withdrew the reluctance in his eyes and turned to stride towards the entrance of the cave.

The black cloak swayed in the wind, and the cold wind ruffled the white hair on his forehead.

At the entrance of the cave, five men and six horses had been waiting for a long time, they were wearing the uniform iron plate armor of the Saron Evil, wearing a black heavy helmet, and the black blade heavy sword on their backs shone with a deadly edge, standing in the wind and snow in an inverted triangle.

Turning over and riding on a war horse led by an Acherus death knight, Xue Huan coldly ordered his subordinates: "Hurry up, we have to rush back immediately." ”

There are still many tricky things to deal with in Howling Fjord, and Zudak's hidden dangers have not been completely eradicated, and before that, he didn't have enough troops to deal with them, but now it's different.

Now that he has plenty of troops, he must be ruthless before leaving, and do his best to severely damage these unknown Dakale trolls, so that they do not dare to have any wrong thoughts about the sacred natural calamity territory after he leaves.

It would take a while to settle this concern, but it was just right that he could use that time to fully prepare for the invasion of Lordaeron.
