After a frantic escape, the retreating Arthas, Xue Huan and others came to a high slope dozens of miles away from Nanhai Town.

"Damn, that's it!"

At this time, Arthas's eyes were blood-red, and in anger, he clenched his hand into a fist and smashed it into the trunk of a tree beside him. Unexpectedly, he led the troops into battle for the first time, and he lost so many soldiers. blamed himself for being careless and underestimating the enemy, and failing to judge the battle situation in time, which led to the sacrifice of so many soldiers in vain!

"Your Royal Highness, it's not your fault, it's all because of that abominable necromancer. A cavalryman in armor looked at the guilty prince with some distress, and he stepped forward to persuade him.

"yes, yes!"

A group of Lordaeron soldiers next to him also chimed in.

Seeing his soldiers comforting himself like this, Arthas felt even more guilty in his heart, and at this time he longed to find a crack in the ground to get into. Since he was a child, he has dreamed of becoming a hero in the hearts of the people, and he has always been very confident, believing that he is just missing a chance.

Unable to think of this opportunity but being screwed up by his own stupidity, Arthas couldn't help but fall into a whirlpool of self-blame and guilt when he thought of his faces distorted by anger.

"Don't overthink it, Your Highness, it's not your fault!" Tirio Fording stepped forward and patted Arthas on the shoulder.

Before that terrible spell appeared, he thought they were in good hands. It's just that I didn't expect that the necromancer's level was so high that it caught them off guard.

Arthas took a deep breath and tried to adjust his mindset, knowing that this was not the time to be discouraged.

Arthas, who had come to his senses, smiled bitterly and said to Tirio Fortin, "But General Tirio, how can we defeat that necromancer? That guy seems to have become the biggest obstacle to us. ”

"This—" Tirio Ferding looked down in thought, apparently he couldn't do anything better.

Although he was nominally a paladin, his strength was only that of a guardian knight, and he could only barely hold back against Gul'dan, who was comparable to a holy magister and used evil powers. But it's hard to beat that guy.

"That's right!"

Just as Tirio Fording was at a loss, he remembered that there was another archmage in the team. Then he said to Arthas, "Your Highness, has not Your Majesty sent a powerful mage to assist you? ”

"Yes," Arthas nodded in realization, forgetting about the unfathomable power of the Great Magician.

In fact, this is not to blame Arthas, the two were not familiar enough, and Xue Huan did not play much role in the battle just now. This also led to Arthas directly forgetting about Xue Huan. It was only after Tirio Fordin's reminder that Arthas remembered.

At this time, Xue Huan was sitting in the shade of a tree on the side, closing his eyes and recuperating?

Oh no, to be precise, he should be meditating. Ever since he had been instructed by Kel'thugad to exercise more mental power, he would be in a meditative state whenever he had time. And he was pleasantly surprised to find that while in a meditative state, he was still able to communicate with Kel'thugad through the spiritual realm.

Although this is not a great news, but why not be able to piggyback and chat with people while meditating? So, in addition to meditation, Xue Huan also summoned Kel'thugad in the spiritual realm, wanting to ask some things about Northrend.

"Master, do you have any orders for summoning me?" Kel's lazy and empty voice sounded in Xue Huan's heart.

Doesn't this guy never sleep?

Why is it that every time he gives a summoning command, this guy can appear instantly? Xue Huan was a little puzzled......

"Hey, hey," Kel'thugad smiled and said, "Master, I'm just a spirit, not a substance, and of course I can never sleep. ”

I see...

No longer entangled in whether these are worth or not, Xue Huan asked directly: "Kelthugad, have you heard of Northrend?"

"No... Northrend—" Kel'thugad trembled as if he had heard something terrible. This was the first time Xue Huan had seen it so gaffe.

"What's wrong?"

"No... It's all right, master!"

Kel'thugad calmed down. For some reason, it always felt that the name was unusually familiar to it, as if it had some kind of bond with it, but it couldn't think of even the slightest bit of information about it.

"Sorry host, I only know that there is no spring, summer, autumn and winter. That continent is covered in snow and ice all year round, and it is a frozen wasteland. Kel'thugad spoke out all the information about Northrend in his mind without reservation. But that's just some of the basic information about Northrend.

"Nothing else?" Xue Huan was a little puzzled, this was completely equivalent to not saying anything...

"I'm sorry, master!" said Kel'thugad regretfully.

"Alright, you can go back..."

"Yes, master!"

Xue Huan nodded and recalled Kel'thugad.

Since you can't get more information about Northrend from it, you're on your own. But the first thing to do is to deal with these orc warriors in front of you......

After meditating, Xue Huan opened his eyes and looked around at the Lordaeron knights who were resting. It is obviously unlikely that they will be able to rely on them to deal with the necromancer in Nanhai Town. He was pressured to give up using magic for a while, which made the battle more difficult.

Although he knew that there was a powerful paladin in the team, according to his thoughts, if that paladin really had the strength to defeat the necromancer, then he would not have asked Arthas to retreat in such a hurry.

In other words, the paladin can't fight the necromancer, and Angel...

Thinking of this, Xue Huan glanced at Angel not far away, and saw that this little girl was... The moment Xue Huan and her looked at each other, Angel quickly moved her gaze in the direction of Nanhai Town, pretending to look at the scenery.

Xue Huan shook his head, a little unclear. Even though Angel could fight the necromancer with Tirio Fordin, with the strength of Angel's junior mage, I am afraid that she would die before she could recite the spell.

If it really doesn't work...

Xue Huan looked at his hands intently, and an idea popped up in his heart: he wanted to have a good and in-depth conversation with Arthas and the others, about the matter of evil energy.

If you can convince Arthas to accept that you have evil powers, then you don't have to hide your head and tail again. Once he and Tirio Ferding have teamed up to solve the problem here, they can pick up Nia and rush to Northrend.

He even thought that by being the Prince of Arthas, he could convince Terenus to use the best priest in the kingdom to heal Nia, so that he would not have to travel to the frozen wasteland. Wouldn't that kill two birds with one stone?

This is a gamble, and the bet is the human heart!
