In fact, as Belloc led more than 50 Scourge warriors to the Dragonbone Wilderness, the undead found an excellent mining site.

This is an underground mine northwest of Utgard Castle, near Sken.

Skern was originally the territory of the Scorn Winter Clan, and like the Dragon Raider Clan, they were also creations left over from the Ancient Titans, but they lacked a leader and were far inferior to the Dragon Raider Clan in terms of combat effectiveness, so they were quickly broken by the Scourges led by Xue Huan and became a subsidiary territory of the undead.

Xue Huan turned the attacked Sken into an impregnable Scourge Fortress City, and ordered Bellock to be stationed there, and under the Scourge City, a fertile source of black stone was buried deep in it, which made Xue Huan sigh: It was really hard to find a place to break through the iron shoes, and it took no effort to get it.

He was surprised to learn from some of the Scourge Viku natives that this hard black iron was called "Saron Evil Iron", and that the black plate armor made from these ores was stronger than Xue Huan had imagined, and could even withstand most magical attacks.

It took a month or so for Belloc to construct a larger, deeper, and more sophisticated Ssalonian Iron Mine than the Garvey Cave.

Nearly 100 Scourge Vikus are methodically mining and excavating inside, and this mine, known as "Rickik", has been supplying equipment materials for the Scourge Legion since then, until Xue Huan became the new Lich King, it was gradually abandoned, and Belloc was also transferred to the new "Saron Mine" because of his outstanding achievements, to continue to complete his mission.

Of course, this is a later story, so I won't mention it for the time being.

With the support of the Saron Evil Iron provided by the Rickik Mine, Xue Huan could even forge the surplus Saron Evil Iron into weapons and distribute them to his Scourge Warriors.

The matter was rightfully left to Dakuru.

Under the urging of the Troll Warriors and using the Irons of Saron, the Scourge Forgers worked day and night with hammers and furnaces, and it wasn't long before a new batch of weapons was forged.

This heavy-handed two-handed sword shone with a light blue rune brilliance, and there were two protruding blades at the front end, like two demonic fangs, and it looked very similar to the magic sword that Xue Huan was good at—Frost Sorrow.

Of course, they don't have the breathtaking magic of Frost Sorrow, let alone the blessings of death and shadow, but as a weapon for ordinary soldiers, they are clearly sufficient.

When pieces of equipment made of Saron Evil Iron were made by the forgers and stacked in the warehouse of Utgard Castle, Xue Huan felt that the time was ripe.

Sken, the fortress city of the Scourge.

The sky over Howling Fjord was as gloomy as ever, with heavy dark clouds overwhelming in the air.

Xue Huan, who was wearing heavy evil iron plate armor, had a solemn expression, and stood in front of the gate of the fortress without saying a word.

Everywhere Xue Huan and Kel'thugad went, death and decay followed.

Under Xue Huan's orders, the forgers used the iron and dragon bones of Saron to create a new black armor tailored for him, after all, he had been wearing shabby leather armor until then, and in this cold land, he could neither shelter from the wind and snow, nor defend against strong enemies.

As for the black armor he was wearing now, which was made of a mixture of evil iron and dragon bones, I have to say that he was very satisfied.

The armor was covered with dragon bone barbs, and the belt, shin armor, and knee pads were tattooed with skull patterns symbolizing death, and the giant skull pattern on the shoulder armor was even more hideous.

The black Death Knight's hand armor is studded with rivets, and a broken black cloak swings in the wind, corrupted and depraved, matching his status as the King of the Dark Knight, and with the magic sword he is proud of, Frost Sorrow is simply extremely windy.

In front of him were nearly 500 Disaster warriors in full gear, and it could be said that a large part of the Disaster forces stationed in Howling Fjord had gathered here.

These Cataclysmic soldiers were all dressed in uniform black Saron Evil Iron Plate Armor, armed with black-edged heavy swords, neatly arranged in a dense array on the square, as if they were a black ocean.

The soil beneath their feet was filled with the stench of decay.

The scene was silent and crowded, in front of these undead creatures, were Yanar, Bellock, and Yofus, the three Cataclysmic Lords who led the fortress, as the most outstanding and powerful Dakuru under his command, he stood at the forefront, waiting for Xue Huan's order.

"My Scourge warriors. ”

As Xue Huan's voice sounded, the scene suddenly fell silent, and the eyes of these undead creatures shone with a strange green light, looking at Xue Huan on the steps.

Staring at the natural disaster soldiers in front of him, Xue Huan had indescribable excitement and pleasure in his heart, and a cold light flashed in his sunken eyes.

The day has finally arrived...

Once upon a time, he was still hiding from the Divine Light, like a rat crossing the street.

Once upon a time, he was still struggling to find a place to live, and had to turn to others for help.

Now, that's all in the past.

The hesitant, helpless, and benevolent Xue Huan has been completely wiped out by himself.

Now he is the Death Knight Lord who commands the army of the Catastrophe, representing endless darkness and fear, and the magnificent Utgard Castle is his impregnable fortress, and hordes of undead creatures will obey his orders, and he will return to that sacred land.

This time, there is no more mercy and mercy, only death will favor these stupid and filthy living, and he is the spokesman of death.

Thinking of this, Xue Huan smiled hideously, and his bone-white hair fluttered in the wind.

He pulled out the frost sorrow behind him, and pointed his sword at the gray, hazy night sky.

"From this day forward, your task is only to kill, endless killing, and the sky will change color because of you, the rivers will dry up because of you, the living will tremble and fear because of you, the dead will mourn and cry because of you, and anyone who tries to stop you from the living is your enemy. ”

"But remember, I am your master, and I am the only one. ”

The undead in the square were calm for a second, only for a second, and the next, a sudden burst of howls instantly flooded the Sken Heights.

Under the evil aura of Frost Sorrow, these undead creatures waved their arms almost frantically, shook their heads, they didn't know how to express, let alone talk, they frantically slapped their armor with their bony hands, and let out a low, terrifying roar, like a monstrous beast, frantically expressing their loyalty and determination to surrender to death.

At this moment, the sky of Howling Fjord became even darker, and a terrible roar streaked across the night sky, and a terrifying army of death knights finally descended on the cold wind of Northrend.

This elite unit was named the "Death Knights of Acherus" by Xue Huan, and before that, Dakuru would temporarily lead this army of death knights, but ironically, as the leader of the entire undead spirit, Dakuru was the only one alive.

However, this will not be an obstacle for Dakuru to control this army, and Xue Huan will pass on some of his death power to Dakuru through Frost Grief so that the troll warriors can better control this death army, but in exchange, Dakuru voluntarily sacrifices his pure soul as a living to Frost Sorrow.

The Blood Knight Belloc, the Cruel Arnar, and the Frost Knight Jofus are Dakuru's lieutenants and the lords of the army who know the blood, darkness, frost, and the three Death Knights, henceforth, only the bravest and most powerful Death Knight can enter this force that represents death and killing.

And just as Xue Huan's expression was agitated by this army, and his pale face was covered with hideousness, the magic sword in his hand shone with a chill, and then, the familiar, eerie and terrifying voice suddenly appeared in his mind.

"I was right, my most loyal and brave Death Knight. ”

"Now, it's time to return to the Frozen Throne, and a new mission awaits you. ”
