Chapter 60: The Book of Medivan
In the sixteenth year of the World of Warcraft Dark Calendar, the entire continent of Lordaeron fell into madness.
After attacking the elven kingdom of Quel'Thalas, the Scourge Legion, which had been slowing down in attack, suddenly expanded like crazy, and everywhere it passed, the land was polluted, the dead were aroused, and the army of the undead continued to rush to various battlefields, under the leadership of the death knight Arthas, brutally slaughtering the creatures that Qiē saw, and now the soldiers of the undead Scourge have gathered under the magical kingdom of Dalaran and are attacking this ancient country.
In the kingdom of Lordaeron, the shattered Knights of the Silver Hand gradually began to recover after the initial blow, and the paladins banded together to lead the remnants of humanity against the undead onslaught, including the Ashbringer Mogley
Together, Neon, General Abydis, and High Prosecutor Ethan Lion founded the Scarlet Crusade, an army that had grown red with blood, and swept through the plaguelands like a fire, infecting every warrior who fought alongside them with their fanaticism and recklessness, and at one point it was believed that the dawn of Lordaeron was coming. Unfortunately, the good times were short-lived, and in a subsequent raid on Stratholme, the Elder of the Scarlet Crusade, one of the absolute leaders of the Scarlet Crusade, the High Lord of the Ember Bringer, was killed. After that, the entire Scarlet Crusaders went into a frenzy, turning all sapient beings except them, of any race, to the slightest doubt about their ideals to turn their swords against those who accidentally encountered them. Unless they are human beings and are willing to join them, they are to be treated as Scourges and terminated. Many righteous-minded paladins could not accept this. Eventually, he broke away from the Scarlet Crusaders and founded the Silver Dawn Order in the Wish of Light. And experienced defeat, division, madness. The Scarlet Crusaders, though still valiant and still valiant, have begun to decline, and can only survive the Scourge Legion's onslaught.
On the other hand, after the onslaught of the undead, the High Elves of Quel'Thallas were silently licking their wounds in their homeland, changing their names to the Blood Elves and vowing revenge on the Scourge Legion, and no one knew what had happened except when they saw them again. Their eyes were no longer peaceful, but full of the same fervor as the Scarlet Crusaders. Now the large army of blood elves has not moved, but batch after batch of ranger squads have begun to wander around the entire continent of Lordaeron, they seem to be looking for something, no doubt this behavior makes people know that the storm is coming, this ancient elven country will never be willing to be silent after experiencing the attack of natural disasters.
In the seventeenth year of the World of Warcraft Dark Calendar, under the city of Dalaran, countless undead gathered here, firmly surrounding Violet Castle like a white ocean.
The castle has been replaced by ruins. The shattered blades and broken battle flags in front of the fort seemed to tell countless stories of the fierceness of the battle, and there were no corpses, because all the dead had been resurrected by the Scourge Legion and rejoined the attack on Violet Castle. If it weren't for the purple shield that had been draped over the spire, keeping the attacking undead out, I'm afraid everyone would have thought that this place had fallen!
Stand on the Mage's Tower. Antonidas, who had long gray hair, was tired at this time, and he sighed slightly as he looked at the endless stream of undead below.
Perhaps the prophet was right. I should have trusted little Gianna's judgment more! ”
More than a year ago, a cloaked prophet had warned him about the plague. and warned him that the whole of Azeroth would fall, and that he would go to the continent of Kalimdor in the west, but unfortunately Antonidas stubbornly believed that he could solve the problem of a qiē, and that this prophet of unknown origin was nothing more than a liar and did not listen to his question, and it was too late to do so.
Anyone with a discerning eye could see that although the undead had not yet broken through Dalaran's protective circle, it was only a matter of time.
Then I don't know what came first, but Antonidas's brow was relaxed, and the gloom in his eyes was slightly reduced.
"Fortunately, Lydra has already led some of the mages to transfer first, and Dalaran's fire will not be extinguished, and I can stay here with peace of mind!"
A few months ago, after receiving the news that the undead were wreaking havoc throughout Lordaeron, Lydra, one of the members of the six-member council, advocated leading a part of the staff to support, at that time, Anthony was too threatening to oppose, and finally couldn't screw the other party and a group of mages whose motherland is Lordaeron reluctantly agreed, and let Lydra take away nearly a hundred mages, and now it seems that this unintentional move has finally become a part of the wonderful chess, so that the mage inheritance of the human race retains the last fire, It seems that the world can't bear to see thousands of years of human magical civilization destroyed.
Looking at the undead who were constantly biting and destroying the protective barrier under his feet, the old mage's hair moved, and wave after wave of powerful magic continued to spread.
"The miscellaneous pieces made by Kel'thugad, one day with me, you don't want to take a step into the Violet Castle!"
It's a pity that things in the world are often unexpected, not long after Antonidas just made up his mind to burn the jade, there was a sudden explosion in the Violet Castle, and in a whirlwind earthquake, even the protective shield of the castle shook twice.
"Oh no, Lord Antonidas, the treasury has been breached, and someone inside has stolen the treasure!" Before Antonidas could regain his footing, a young mage with a blood-colored face hurried in, his face panicked to the extreme.
"What's going on, who is it? What was stolen? Anthony's face, which had been slightly relieved when he saw that the shield had not been breached, turned blue in an instant, and he asked as if he had grabbed the young mage's cannon.
You must know that Dalaran has a long history, and many of the treasures collected by the members of Kenrito over the past generations are stored here, and a few of them have a great impact on the current situation, one is not good, and can even affect the entire world of Azeroth.
"It's the Book of Medivan, those damn undead stole the Book of Medivan!" The little mage said with a sad face, and the whole person looked desperate to the extreme.
At this moment, Antonidas's face was suddenly bloodless, and it was extremely pale.
Medivan, the last guardian of humanity, did not live as illustrious as the previous guardians, but he did something that all humans would remember - he opened the Dark Portal and sent the orcs of Draenor into the world of Azeroth, and the Book of Medivan was the forbidden book that recorded all of Medivan's magic.
In a ravine not far from Dalaran, the Death Knight Arthas stood silently, several undead kneeling before him, holding a thick book to him.
"Master, we have successfully moved into Violet Castle and stole the Book of Medivan, please take a look!"
"yes, I see!" The Death Knight nodded slightly, but instead of taking the magic book, his eyes stayed on the several undead in front of him, especially the middle-aged elf in the lead.
Pointed ears, silver-white hair, these undead are obviously from the High Elves, that day in the battle of Quel'Thalas, although Arthas did not break through Silvermoon City, but also killed many high-ranking elves, the Silvermoon Council was almost cleaned up by him, even King Anastarian? The Sunschaers died at his hands. Later, because the great lich Kel'thugad died in the hands of Mo Wen, the mage power in the hands of the death knight was lacking several times, so he had to spend a lot of strength to transform these high elves into undead one by one, after all, compared to the human race, the elves' magical attainments are a little higher, and the facts have proved that his choice is right, it is these elven mages with their superb magical power and understanding of Dalaran that quietly infiltrated the Violet Castle and retrieved the Book of Medivan for him.
Looking at the face that was somewhat similar to the face he hated the most, Alsace was surprisingly calm at this moment, and there was not even a trace of a wave in his eyes.
With empty eyes like stagnant water, the magic of death that is extremely cold, and the tall figure of loneliness and despair, the current Death Knight is the one who is truly close to the original Lich King.
Nearly a year of crazy killing, so that Arthas absorbed more soul power, the whole person is more in line with the frost sorrow in his hands, and his strength has also broken through to the first-class level, but in the same way, his human side has almost disappeared, joys, sorrows and sorrows are no longer remembered in his heart, and even the humiliation brought to him by Mo Wen has made him forget a lot, and now he is just a walking corpse full of dark ambitions in his heart.
"Well done, Anastarian, I'll leave it to you next, and start summoning the great Akmund!"
The Death Knight left a word, then stepped aside, closing his eyes and communicating with the Frost Grief in his hand.
Anastarian, who had been ordered to become an undead, did not act immediately, the dark light in his eyes flickered slightly, and finally he walked up to several High Elves and flipped through the Book of Medivan.
Half an hour later, with an explosion, a dazzling black light shot straight into the sky from the valley, illuminating the entire Lordaeron sky, and the huge flames and evil aura began to spread across the earth, completely sweeping in all directions.
Rows of, flaming monsters emerged from a black portal, and at the forefront, led by a burly, whip-tailed, ominous monster.
After 10,000 years, the Burning Legion has finally descended on the land of Azeroth once again. (To be continued......)
