Chapter 3: The Skull of Gul'dan

Illidan sat on the edge of a cliff, his empty eyes looking into the distance, his heart full of depression and bewilderment.

He had always considered himself the great hero of the Night Elves, who had defeated demons with his wits, and who would not have won the war without his sacrifice.

He recalls the scene where demons swept through the sky, countless soldiers were mercilessly killed, and the leader of the army, Rafinclest, was plotted.

Rafincrest is a true hero, who not only promoted me with discernment, but also organized a resistance to the Burning Legion in times of crisis. Without this hero, the Burning Legion would have leveled the world without resistance.

Garrod just happened to be lucky, when the high-ranking generals fell one after another, and they had the opportunity to become the leader of the legion, just as the demigods joined them. It's all a coincidence, what a hero, in the end, wants to snatch the power of the Well of Eternity with me.

If I hadn't pretended to surrender and get important information, Malfurion would have known how to close the portal, and I was the biggest contributor to this battle. But...... Why didn't anyone understand me, not even Tyrande......

The moment I walked out of prison, I still wanted to behave in front of Tyrande, but I didn't expect that even the lowest soldiers didn't take me seriously.

I used to be a mage, but now that I have lost my mana, I don't know how to fight like a warrior, is it the same as they say, I'm just a waste?

The thought of Vandal Deerhelm knocking himself flying with a single palm of his hand made him feel extremely vulnerable.

"What the hell did I do wrong?!Why did this to me!" he stood up and shouted to the sky.

"Hahahaha! Suddenly a voice in the jungle.

"Who is it! What bastard would dare to laugh at me. Illidan turned.

A large shadow stepped out of the shadows with the sound of horses' hooves.

Illidan saw a skeletal horse in black armor walking out of the bushes, exhaling white cold air from his nose. Immediately there was a human in shiny black metal armor, his face bloodless, his silver hair fluttering in the wind.

If it was an elf who laughed at him, he could still bear it, but the other party was a human, and he had only one thought in his heart, which was to kill him immediately and make this stupid human pay the price for mocking the night elves.

He jumped to his feet, chanted a fire spell, and a ball of fire went straight to the man on horseback. Although the energy is not as good as before, he can still manipulate some spells.

"Humble human, let you know what happened to you for mocking the Night Elves, and I will make you regret coming to me. ”

The grim smile on the man's face froze suddenly, replaced by a contempt, and he drew a black, cold-glowing, steaming sword from his waist.

He raised his sword slightly, and a black light appeared in front of him, and the oncoming fireball instantly extinguished when it touched the black light.

Illidan attacked again, but did not pose any threat to the other side.

Illidan thought, the disparity in strength is too great, but why doesn't he fight back, if he fights back, I won't have the power to fight back.

He stopped and said, "If you fight like this, even if you fight for a day, it won't come to fruition, let's say, what are your intentions?"

"You know what to do. ”

Hearing this, Illidan thought of what Vandal said just now, and wanted to rush up and strangle him, however, the other party's strength was unfathomable, endure it and see what he wanted.

He said: "Who exactly are you and why did you come to our territory?"

"I am Alsace, King of Lordaeron. Don't worry, I'm here to do nothing with you, and it makes no sense for me to kill you, it's just that we have a common enemy, Tikdios......"

"You mean, you want to form an alliance with us?"

"Alliance?heh, I don't think those stupid Night Elves can ally with me. ”

"What are you talking about, you damn human?"

"Of the entire Night Elves, I think you're the only one to work with, even if you don't have any power yet. ”

Hearing this, Illidan became a little less angry, and he said, "How do you want to cooperate?"

"I know you're struggling with the loss of power, and now there's a way to increase your strength that I can guide you. ”

As soon as he heard that he could gain power, Illidan came to his senses, "What is the method?"

"Do you know why the demons are so strong today? Because they have obtained a powerful artifact, that artifact is called Guldan's Skull, and it is through this thing that they increase the demon's combat power. ”

"I don't know what you're saying about it for me to boost my strength. ”

"Don't worry, listen to me. As long as you obtain the Skull of Gul'dan, you will gain extraordinary powers, and all demons will no longer be able to match them, including Tikdios. ”

"Heh, do you think I'm a fool, or do you think Tikdios is an imbecile, he's the master of the demon army, the master of battle, the first strategist under Akmund, and he won't give me something so important. Won't they take precautions?"

"Of course, but ......"

"But what?"

"But since I'm telling you this secret, it means I'm sure I'll let you get it. ”

"Really?" Illidan thought for a moment and said, "Why did you choose me?"

"Only you have the power of the demon to manipulate the power of the artifact, and besides, do you think the likes of your eldest brother and sister-in-law would be willing to use the demon's artifact to fight?"

Although this made him a little harsh to hear, he gave in at the thought of receiving magical powers, and said, "Okay, I'll just trust you and tell me about your plan." ”

Malfurion and Tyrande come to the temple at the top of a waterfall, where the green woods and clear water make them forget about the polluted Feywood Forest for a while.

"Malfurion, time is running out now, so it's not as simple as bringing me here to relax. ”

"It was a dream voice that brought me here, and I think it's very important for our campaign. ”

At this moment, a white light appeared in the temple, and the light gradually expanded into a door, and a blonde woman wearing a white cloak and holding a black staff walked out of the door.

At the other end, an orc in black armor riding a black wolf in the jungle also approached.

"Outsider, who are you, what are you doing here?" asked Tyrande, alertly drawing his bow and firing it.

The woman said, "I am Gianna Proudmoor, the leader of the Serramore people. ”

The orc said, "I am Thrall, son of Durotan and leader of the orcs. ”

"You are not welcome in this land. Tyrande said.

At this moment, a huge crow flew over and landed among them.

The crow emitted a black light, and its body changed, and in an instant it turned into a man wearing a black cloak and a long gray beard.

The man said: "At present, the Burning Legion is invading, and I hope everyone will put aside their prejudices and form an alliance to resist together, otherwise the Burning Legion will set foot on this land." ”

"You are the one who speaks in my dreams. Malfurion looked at the visitor and said, "Who are you?"

"A few years ago, I was under the mind control of the leader of the Burning Legion and created a portal to send orcs to this land, and Azeroth became at war, and I was put to death at the cost of it. Now that my spirit is free, I am back to organize against the Burning Legion, and I am the last guardian of this world, Medivan. ”
