Kel'thugad glided peacefully beside him, looking very happy to be reborn. This made Arthas very curious, and suddenly, Arthas remembered that his body was destroyed by him before the aura of Kel'thugad, so he jokingly asked, "Do you really mind if I killed you once?"

Kel'thugad rolled his eyes, "The Lich King has already told me how our encounter will end. ”

Arthas was taken aback: "The Lich King knows I'm going to kill you?"

After receiving an affirmative answer, Arthas frowned and looked down at the long sword that lay across his thigh. Now it fell asleep silently, neither whispering, nor shone with energy on its runes.

Kel'thugad continued to keep his mouth open as he looked at him, and there was a bit of smugness in his eerie voice: "He chose you to be his warrior when the Scourge invaded here. ”

Alsace felt more and more unhappy. His fate was tricked like this by others! But now that he knew his fate, did he gladly accept it? No, he secretly decided. He didn't want to be someone else's puppet, but he also knew that the edge of the sword came from sharpening. He must step by step towards his new destiny, and he must endure...... If he had known his fate, he and Gianna would still be together, and Uther and his father would be alive...... Thinking of this, Alsace laughed self-deprecatingly twice, where in the world will there be any chance of starting over, and if there is, then it is not messy?

Arthas shook his head and asked the question he had always wanted to ask, "If he is truly omniscient, how can he still be controlled by the Dreadlords?"

"For they serve the man who created my lord: the terrible demon lord of the Burning Legion. ”

The word made Alsace shudder. The Burning Legion, a few numbers, seems to show intoxicating power for some reason. Frost Sorrow flickered on his legs as well.

"It's a vast demon army that has destroyed countless worlds...... "Kel'thugad changed his tone to a slightly mysterious tone, and Arthas closed his eyes and listened quietly to the lich's story, gradually simulating scenes in his mind. He saw a red world shrouded in a red dome. A group of creatures swarmed down the ridge, running like hounds, but by no means wild beasts, with terrible mouths full of sharp teeth and strange tentacles on their shoulders. Boulders dragging green tails fall from the sky, moving as if they were alive and rushing towards the enemy.

"Now, it's coming to burn the world. Our Lord was born to pave the way for the Legion's coming. And the Dreadlords were sent to make sure he got things done. The scene in Arthas's mind changed, and he saw an ornately carved portal, which he knew was the Dark Portal, though he had never seen it with his own eyes. Green flames radiated from the door, and a large horde of demons surrounded it. Arthas shook his head, and the scene receded.

"So the plague of Lordaeron, the fortress of Northrend, and the slaughter of the elves...... It's all about preparing for a massive demonic invasion?"

"No, these are just appetizers. Sooner or later, you will find out that this coming war will affect our entire history. ”

Arthas thought it through. Frost Grief had apparently awakened, so he took off his right hand and stroked it gently. Cold, bone-chilling cold. Even his blood-tested hand, the Death Knight's hand, felt a tingling when it touched the blade. He heard the whispers sound again, and then laughed.

"That's not all, isn't it a lich?" he asked, turning his head to Kel'thugad. "You said the Dreadlords imprisoned our masters. Now let's hear it. ”

Kel'thugad was no longer flesh and blood, with no skin or hair on his body, and no facial expressions to betray his inner activities. However, from the subtle changes in the undead flame on his body, Arthas could see the uneasiness in his heart. After a while, Kel'thugad explained to Arthas, "The first phase of the Lich King's plan is to build the Scourge and eliminate any organizations that might stand in the way of the Legion's arrival. ”

Arthas nodded. "For example, the Lordaeron army...... And the High Elves. He felt an inexplicable tightness in his chest, but he didn't think much of it.

"The plan for the second phase is to summon the Demon King to launch an invasion. ”

"What is needed?"

"A special book. ”

"Where?"

"Dalaran. ”

Dalaran ...... Arthas was stunned, Dalaran, the largest magical center on the continent of Azeroth. It is also where Gianna was trained. They had very good memories there.

"The mightiest mages of Azeroth defend Dalaran. He said slowly, "We can't hide our whereabouts, they will have time to meet us." ”

"Just like Quel'Thalas?" Kel'thugad let out a hollow laugh, "Think about how easily this army breached Silvermoon City. The ending of Dalaran will be the same. Besides, let's not forget that I was also a member of Kenrito and had a close relationship with Antonidas. When I was a mortal, Dalaran was like my home. I know its secrets, its defensive charms, and how to sneak in from where they can't be guarded. It's a sweet feeling that those guys are trying to make me give up my path and my destiny, and it's time for me to punish them with terror. Don't be afraid, Death Knight, we won't fail. No one, anything, can stop the Scourge Legion. ”

That's right, this guy was also a respected ** teacher.

"Alright, let's go. ”

In Dalaran, Gianna was still rejected by Antonidas, originally her fleet had reached Kozan Island, but when she heard about what happened to Silvermoon City, she immediately returned to Dalaran, and wanted to persuade the ** division to leave again. After being rejected, Gianna wants to join them instead.

"I can help. I've learned enough. ”

The teacher stared out the window with his hands behind his back, looking as if he was watching the students practice.

"No, you have other responsibilities. He turned to look at her, the look on his face that made Gianna's heart sink. "That's the responsibility of me and Tenaris, the responsibility that both of us have shirked. Because he refused to listen to that strange prophet, he died at the hands of his own son, and the kingdom was reduced to ruins. Protect those you promised to protect, one more or less, and now it makes no difference. There are others counting on you. Come on, kid. ”
