490. The second battle with Kael'thas
The armies of Gilneth and Eagle's Nest quickly assembled, and then, led by Duten and Bullock, entered the territory of Quel'Salas along the small mountain gap between the Wraith Lands and the Eastern Plaguelands. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
The southern level of the Wraith Lands has not yet been repaired, and the High Elves are now in chaos. Although Roman "doesn't know whether he lives or dies", there are still many people who support him. These people really have the future of the High Elves at heart, and believe that an alliance with humans is the future of the High Elves, so they have always objected to Kael'thas's remarks.
The other faction, the one that supported Kael'thas, was not unconcerned about the High Elves, but they were now in a radical situation because of the undead invasion, and like their prince, they thought that the High Elves could not continue like this. In order to restore the High Elves to their former glory, they believe that the only way to save the High Elves is to follow the prince to the Outlands in search of greater power.
In fact, theoretically, there is no contradiction between the two sides that cannot be run-in, as long as a way to integrate the two concepts can be found, it may not be impossible to resolve the contradiction between the two sides.
Unfortunately, Kael'thas is now completely carried away by hatred, he has completely distrusted humans, and self-righteously believes that only his own way is the best for the High Elves, and even the two bottles of spring water that Romans brought back are enough to reactivate the Well of the Sun and burst into greater power are hidden by him, and he has not told anyone.
As a result, the situation that could have been saved has gradually embarked on the road of irreparability.
So when the coalition of Gilneth and Eagle's Nest entered the land of ghosts, the High Elves had already assembled several legions and were ready to fight the coalition to the death.
And all those who supported Romance in the country were either secretly killed or put in prison. These people have a certain identity and status in Quel'Salas, and their "fall" directly leads to Kael'thas being unstoppable in the country. Even if ordinary civilians are dissatisfied, who would dare to stand up against Kael'thas in such turmoil?
Those high-ranking people have been put in prison, and many of them have been assassinated by Kael'thas doglegs, and they ordinary people still clean up as they want?
Therefore, when the huge strength of several legions appeared in front of the coalition forces, war was inevitable.
……
Countless magic bolts soared into the sky, and humans and dwarves rushed into the High Elves like a torrent of steel.
Du Ten stood high in the air, looking at the position of the High Elves in the distance, where a red figure also looked at him.
Kael'thas ......
A man who could have been a friend, but ended up being an enemy.
Du Teng slowly drew the long sword behind his back, and Kael'thas on the opposite side also picked up the staff, and the eyes of the two met in the air, and then in the next moment......
Boom!
An incomparably powerful shockwave sent a large area of High Elves flying. The strength of those who can follow Kael'thas is quite good, but even these people can't resist this shock wave, which shows how powerful this shock wave is.
And at the center of the shockwave explosion, Duten and Kael'thas looked at each other.
Domka and the Leapcutter collided with each other, colliding into sparks that burst into pieces that lit up their faces.
"Lim Greymane, don't try to get your hands on Quel'Thalas, the Blood Elves will never give in to any human!"
Kael'thas looked at Du Teng coldly and said in a deep voice.
Duten grinned.
"Unfortunately, I just wanted to get my hands on Quel'Thalas. Kael'thas, you're on the wrong path, and although it's not what I expected, I have to say that your every move is exactly what I expected. As long as I defeat you, I will be able to support those close to humans to ascend to the throne, and when the time comes, whether it is a blood elf or a high elf, you will all become a member of the new alliance, and it is the most important combat power under my command. So, Kael'thas, you'd better die obediently, and only when you die will my plan be fulfilled. ”
Du Teng said with a sneer.
Kael'thas is a great tragedy.
Not to mention the fact that people have taken away their lovers and countries have been destroyed, let's just talk about these things that happened in the period after the invasion of the undead, in fact, it is not difficult to see the root of Kael'thas no longer trusting humans. Although Arthas left with the undead Scourge at that time, a large number of the undead were still left on the land. And many of them are trolls who have died, and these trolls are already difficult to deal with, and it is even more difficult to deal with them when they become undead.
In addition, Arthas has occupied Lordaeron and is still sending undead to attack Quel'Thalas. Although they are all undead, it is really difficult for Quel'Salas to resist them today.
In order to protect their country, the old covenant was also revived. Kael'thas asks for help from Stormwind, not Gilneth because Duten has defeated him before, and asking Duten for help will make him feel particularly sad.
So he had to choose Stormwind, and he felt that Stormwind would help him. He guessed right, Stormwind did send troops. However, the Blood Elves did not have the full trust of the humans. At the very least, there was a part of humanity that was skeptical of the Blood Elves from the start. One of them is the human general Garithers, the commander of the Alliance who is tasked with resisting the army of the undead in Lordaeron.
Therefore, while organizing the resistance movement, he kept a close eye on the blood elves' every move. Moreover, he never hid his distrust of the Blood Elves and the Prince. This displeased Kael'thas with this. However, despite the noble prince's haughty heart, he still demonstrated loyalty to the alliance and obedience to the leadership of Garethus.
In fact, there is no misunderstanding in this.
After all, at that time, Varian had already led his army to the continent of Kalimdor, and Stormwind's troops were also a little empty, and it was not easy for Garishers to send troops out. But after all, he is responsible for the entire kingdom and these soldiers, and the High Elves don't ask for help sooner or later, but when Stormwind City is empty, how can he not be suspicious?
Moreover, the High Elves are obviously very close to Gilneys, which is no secret recently, but they are reluctant to go far, saying that Gilneth has no spare strength to send troops in the country, and can only rely on Stormwind City to rescue...... Garissus didn't suspect that he had seen the hell.
At that time, Kael'thas already had dissatisfaction with human beings in his heart, and the two sides were suspicious and resentful, and finally, because of a conspiracy, the contradictions between the two sides finally broke out.
At that time, Garissus ordered the Blood Elves to attack the undead, but did not give Kael'thas the necessary support. This was clearly an attempt to put the Blood Elves in an extremely dangerous situation. But Garissus can't help it, the soldiers he brought out are limited, and he is a labor expedition, and now he has acted as the main force, and it is really unreasonable for the blood elves not to work harder. But the condition of the blood elves is not very good, but because of the lack of communication, the estrangement between the two sides is getting deeper and deeper. Kael'thas was naturally furious at this order, but he was forced to accept the impossible task.
At the critical moment, Vasqi, the female sea witch of the Naga tribe, arrived with her people. Despite Kael'thas's hesitation, the demands of the situation, as well as his subtle feelings towards Naga, who is also a descendant of the upper elves, and especially Vasqui, who had helped Kael'thas, led the prince to accept their help.
The Blood Elves and the Naga, two clans of the same ancestry, fought off an army of the undead. Kael'thas was able to fulfill his orders, and was grateful to the sea witch. But what he didn't realize was that it was actually Naga's ploy. Vaski constantly hinted to the young prince that she was capable of helping Kael'thas and his people from the pain of losing their magical source, while also warning him that the Blood Elves would be even more disadvantaged in the Alliance. This did shake Kael'thas a bit, but it didn't make him up.
Just at this time, Garissus suddenly appeared with a large army. The irascible general found out that Kael'thas was with their enemies, the Naga, and immediately deduced that the prince and his blood elves had betrayed the Alliance. Kael'thas hastened to let Naga go, hoping to explain to Garrissus. But how could Garissus, who had long been prejudiced against the Blood Elves, listen to Kael'thas explain.
In this way, the commander of the Lordaeron Alliance captured and imprisoned the Blood Elves, and announced that they would be executed. This left Kael'thas in excruciating pain. In the dungeon beneath the ruins of Dalaran, the Blood Elf Prince is disheartened by the Alliance and awaits, painfully awaiting the end of the day.
And Vasqi appeared again at a critical moment. With her help, Kael'thas led the Blood Elves out of prison. At this point, the prince finally made up his mind: to part ways with the foolish humans and their alliance. After that, he followed Vaschi's advice and took refuge in Illidan, the master of the Naga.
Now that he had decided to go to the Outlands, the combined forces of Gilneth and Eagle's Nest had arrived, and he decided to defeat them and set off for the Outlands. As for whether he would fail or not, he never had that worry, especially when he had two bottles of Eternal Well spring water, and this confidence reached the extreme.
In the original space-time line, in the shattered orc homeland of Draenor, Kael'thas meets the Demon Hunter again. He sought a solution to the pain of the Blood Elves' thirst for magic. Illidan told the young prince that he could not grant Kael'thas request. But he can help the Blood Elf Prince and his people gain powerful magic to relieve their suffering. That is, like him, to take refuge in the demon Kilgardan.
Of course, at that time, Kael'thas still had a rejection of demons in his heart. But after the innocent was accused of "betrayal" by humans, he had no other way out. At the same time, he also had a premonition of what the Blood Elves might face if they lost the support of their magic. A combination of factors, combined with Illidan's advice, Kael'thas finally made a choice - to be loyal to the demon's servant Illidan.
In fact, this is also his only option.
Since then, the blood elf mage Kael'thas and Vasco, the Naga witch, have become the right-hand men of the demon hunter Illidan, seeking to survive in the gap between the Alliance, the Undead Scourge and the Burning Legion.
With Illidan's help, the Blood Elves learned a way to quench their thirst by draining the magical energy of others to ease their own pain. As Kael'thas battles Illidan's many enemies, he also increasingly relies on the dark forces manipulated by the demons of the Burning Legion.
As a result, the prince of the blood elves was no longer content to act as Illidan's subordinate. Behind Illidan's back, he secretly colluded with Kil'Gardan, the leader of the Burning Legion, to carry out his evil plans in Stormkeep.
After the fall of the Storm Keep, Kael'thas was resurrected by the evil powers of the Burning Legion, and began to use the power of the Well of the Sun to summon his new master, the leader of the Burning Legion, Kil'Gardan, on the island of Queldanus, north of Quel'Thalas.
This move is undoubtedly a declaration of war on all the races of the world of Azeroth. Attacked by the Blood Elven Astrologer and the Draenei's coalition of Shattered Sun, Kael'thas eventually died in his homeland, while Kil'Gardan was blasted back into the Twisted Void by the energy of the Well of the Sun.
Kael'tham's life has finally come to an end.
If Duten doesn't intervene, this will be the end for Kael'thas. And now Duten has intervened, he has the support of Romans and the friendship of Quel'Thalas, and the High Elves regard him as a benefactor. Today's Quel'Thalas, it's only because no one can and no one dares to resist Kael'thas that this situation has occurred.
As long as Duten can defeat Kael'thas and let Romance regain the upper hand, a High Elf that is more powerful than the blood elves in the original books will be completely in his hands.
It was a departure from his original plan, but the plan never kept up with the change, and he felt that he had no problem doing so.
As for whether Romans will eventually go on a strange path with him, he can only say that it is not impossible. But he didn't want the High Elves to die, he just needed the support of the High Elves, and he wanted to develop a new alliance that was more powerful, so he really couldn't think of why the High Elves would betray him again in the future.
You must know that on the original time and space line, the high elves who joined the tribe were actually incompatible with the mainstream race of the tribe, and there was even a brain-dead roar incident in the later period, even so, the high elves still did not betray the tribe. Duten felt that he could do better than the tribe, and the High Elves had no reason and no need to betray themselves.
So there's only one thing left in front of him at the moment, and that's defeating Kael'thas!
Du Teng's eyes suddenly sharpened, and his hands violently exerted force, and the huge force directly lifted Kael'thas out of the air. (To be continued.) )
