Duke was chatting and joking with Dumbledore easily, but he didn't expect to hear such a news suddenly, which instantly made his smile freeze on his face.

The threat of the Monster Valley has even been forgotten by Duke for a while, because with the arrival of summer, according to the previous rule, it will not be attacked again until at least winter, which means that Storm Castle can win at least half a year's respite.

But now Dumbledore actually said that the monster is waiting for the opportunity, and it has already waited, which means that the monster will soon launch the next round of attacks. It's just that Stormcastle is in a very serious period of repair, and it's not in Stormcastle itself, so Stormcastle will be under a very serious threat.

"Lord Dumbledore, how do you know?"

Duke also became serious at this time, after all, this is about his lair, if Storm Castle is captured by the Ice Demon, then he will really finish playing, and he doesn't know what year and month it will be if he wants to make a comeback.

"In fact, we in the Dark Witch Society have been paying attention to the Gates of Hell, and because of our special status, we know even more about the changes in the Gates of Hell than the Holy See. Gandalf was captured by the Holy See because he was exploring the Gates of Hell in the Valley of Monsters. It was only because of his whereabouts that he was discovered by the Holy See, and he didn't want the Holy See to find out that the Dark Witch Society already had members of the Great Magister, so he hid his strength and was arrested by the Holy See. ”

Originally, with his strength, he could have escaped from prison quietly, so that it would not attract too much attention from the top of the Holy See. But then there was a little accident, he didn't expect that a small place like Storm Castle would actually have the Pope's Divine Punishment Chain to draw runes, resulting in his magic power being completely blocked, and you know what happened next, Gandalf was released by you, and finally became the chief magician of Storm Castle. ”

Duke nodded when he heard this, he was basically involved in the rest of the story, but it was also the first time he knew the whole story of Gandalf's arrest.

"After Gandalf joined Stormcastle, you were quickly attacked by the Ice Devil, but were repelled by Gandalf's magic. The Ice Demon never attacked again, except that the Sentinels spotted the necromancer's trail and spent the entire winter. ”

After Gandalf finished speaking, Duke answered, "That's right, since that tentative attack, Stormcastle has only seen a small number of Sentinel deaths, and from the skeleton, it has been attacked by necromancers. However, as the security of Stormcastle was needed, the Sentinels continued to extend their patrol lines, but they never saw any traces of monsters again, and they were all hidden in the depths of the monster valley. ”

Hearing Duke's words, Dumbledore replied with a meaningful smile on his face at this time: "Actually, they are not hiding, but waiting for the opportunity I told you before. ”

"What kind of timing is that, Lord Dumbledore, how do you know?" Duke asked a little anxiously, Storm Castle was the foundation of his life, and he was not in the mood to play dumb riddles with Dumbledore.

"I didn't know that before, because with Gandalf becoming the chief mage of Stormkeep, basically everything the Dark Witch would know was shared with you. But this time, with Malfurion, they came and let us know something behind it. ”

"Because last winter, it was a time of civil strife among the Fallen Elves, and at that time, Illidan contacted the Hell Race and prepared to start all the Hell Gates on the continent and lure the Hell Legion to our plane. However, due to Malfurion's obstruction, the opening of the gates of hell was unsuccessful, and only a small number of infernal creatures descended on this world, including the necromancer of the storm. ”

"But now it's different, as Malfurion began to rule over the entire Moonchasing Tribe, he began to use the magic of the Elven Race's Eternal Well to open and maintain the opening of the gates of hell, so a large number of hellish creatures have descended on this world. And because the monsters in the Monster Valley have not yet formed their own social system, they are more savage and eager to attack, so we predict that Storm Castle will be the first area to face the threat of hellish creatures. ”

After listening to Dumbledore's story, Duke couldn't help but greet: "Damn, this fallen elf civil strife that can't be beaten with eight strokes, the first one to suffer will be Storm Castle, how can Lao Tzu be so unlucky!"

Duke was extremely aggrieved in his heart, what was this, and at the same time, he was probably able to connect the entire relationship line. The civil strife of the fallen elves finally put the main war faction Illidan in power, and then he intends to use the power of the creatures of hell to let the elves regain control of the continent.

However, opening the gates of Hell requires incredible magical power, as it is like a space-time portal. In order to gain access to this incredible power, Illidan set his mind on the source of the elves' magic, the Well of Eternity.

At the same time, because of the power of the Well of Eternity, the breath of hell polluted the Well of Eternity, as the priestess of the moon, Tyrande, led the priesthood of the Night Elves to the tribe of the Fallen Elves to inquire about it, trying to find out what was going on.

With the friendship of the same race, Tyrande does not have much defense against the fallen elf tribe, although even if the two sides even change their beliefs, but the elf clan is not so easy to give up, and the reason why the fallen elves change their beliefs is also so that the elf clan can return to its original strong position.

It's just that she didn't expect that the Fallen Elves have been controlled by Illidan, and the members of the Moon-Chasing Royal Clan have been captured by humans. And in order to avoid the matter from being revealed and triggering the Night Elves to track down the Well of Eternity, Illidan directly cooperated with the humans and used the slave catcher team to capture the entire priesthood members, and successfully dumped the pot on the humans.

It can be said that Illidan's trick is very good, and the Human Holy See is also very happy to see the infighting of the elven race, after all, as the most powerful race on the continent, even if they choose to retreat, the human race still does not dare to relax their vigilance. Because of the initiative of the elves to retreat, they did not suffer much loss in the battle of the five clans, and they were still an extremely powerful enemy.

So theoretically, Illidan is doing a very good job, and it has reached a common interest with humanity. But he didn't expect that letting Rose and them save Watt would run into Mirana, and the chain reaction that would eventually lead to everything behind would expose this matter.

However, Duke didn't have much interest in these, the elves were too far away from him, and the threat of the ice demon was too close, he just wanted to know, what was the situation at the gates of hell, and how big would it be if the ice demon attacked this time?
