Chapter 40: A Concerto of Frost and Fire
readx; Kael'thas walked to the edge of the canyon and condescendingly shouted, "Arthas! remember me?"
Arthas looked up, a strange smile appeared on his corpse-like face, "Who is my Dao, it turns out to be the elven prince who once fled in the wilderness." Pen | fun | pavilion www. ๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝ๏ฝ ใ infoI'm sorry, I destroyed your country, killed your people, and reformed the sunwell.
- By the way, I also snatched your woman, hahahaha......"
"Brute, you're still proud at this time, your time of death is coming soon," Kael'thas snapped, "and! what do you think Gianna will think when she sees you like this?" โ
Hearing the name, the Death Knight's face immediately turned angry.
"In the end she abandoned you, and you are just a wretched creature who lives with the dead. Kael'thas struck while the iron was hot.
Arthas was no longer calm, his pale face twitched, and his forehead was bruised, "You lost dog!
"What? Lost dog, this is more appropriate for you to come here, now Lordaeron is no longer yours, and Northrend will soon not be yours, and what about me? I have rebuilt Silvermoon City, and when I take Northrend again, I will achieve the great revival of the nation. Hahahaha. Kael'thas scoffed.
"Long ears! If you have a kind of come down and fight me one-on-one, prove it to me.
"Hmph, do you need me to do it myself?" said Kyle coldly, giving the order to destroy the enemy.
Dense arrows rained down on the dense Scourge soldiers, and at the same time, a series of magics such as fireballs and arcane lights also swooped down on the enemies below, and groups of necromancers fell with arrows, and the giant stitched abomination was also reduced to char under the impact of a large number of fireballs after being pierced into hedgehogs.
More zombie soldiers focused on protecting their masters, and Stitch Abomination, Ghouls, Skeletons, etc., all stood in front of the Death Knight, but this suicidal block didn't last long, and fewer and fewer Scourge soldiers were able to move.
Kael'thas watched all this with pleasure, he was not in a hurry to kill Arthas, and it was the greatest pleasure to slowly torture the enemy.
However, something unexpected happened, just when the elven king felt that everything was coming to an end, a cave suddenly appeared behind his enemy, Arthas, and the Death Knight hid in the cave without hesitation, followed by the rest of the Scourge soldiers.
"Ahh......h
"Quick! Bring this news to Fasqi and let her return to Lord Illidan, where we must gather all our forces to quickly destroy the Frozen Throne. Kael'thas shouted.
-x-x-x-x-
On Illidan's side, under his subtle command, and because of the weakening of the Lich King's power, the army advanced smoothly, and soon attacked the Crown Glacier, and it seemed that it was about to reach the Icecrown Fortress.
At this moment, a dragon eagle flew in front of him, and it turned out to be Kael'thas who came down from the dragon eagle.
"Kyle, what's going on, is Arthas already destroyed?" asked Illidan.
Kael'thas was silent for a moment, and said, "I'm sorry, my lord, I have lived up to your expectations, it seems that there is an underground passage in the natural disaster, and Arthas has been besieged and almost destroyed, but suddenly a cave appears to rescue him. โ
"Looks like I underestimated him, but that's okay, they can't be as fast as we are. The Demon Hunter pointed to the Frozen Throne and said, "Look, that is the heart of the Scourge, and if we advance there to destroy the Throne, the Scourge will be finished." โ
Fasqi arrived shortly after, all his forces assembled and ready to charge.
After the troops were in position, Fasqi stepped forward and said, "Lord Illidan, our team is ready to attack. โ
"Our troops are also ready," Kael'thas said. โ
The Demon Hunter said, "Remember this moment, after today, the Scourge Legion will be gone forever. โ
Then he looked up at the sky and shouted, "Are you still alive? Do you hear me?"
The coalition forces charged, and the snow was blown into the air by the wind, and the battlefield was covered with snow and dust, flames blasted in the snow and ice, and swords slammed into the fighting.
Illidan slew with the twin blades of Ashinos, a weapon that contains indelible emotion, and its former owner, a noble panda warrior, died in a natural disaster and was later insulted by Arthas.
Now he's here for revenge, with the memories of the panda man.
The coalition forces advanced layer by layer, and the Scourge army retreated, and piles of bones fell to the ground and could no longer move, but at this moment, a dragon eagle scout brought bad news - Arthas somehow escaped the layers of defense and was about to reach the throne.
Hearing this, the three leaders were taken aback, and a bad premonition lingered around them.
"No, we can't let Frost Grief return to the Frozen Throne, or our efforts will be in vain. Illidan said. He remembered Kil'Gardan's admonition not to allow Arthas, the Lich King's will, to return to the Frozen Throne with Frost Grief, or the Scourge would regain its former power.
In the midst of his anxiety, Illidan suddenly felt a tingling in his heart, it was Mathriton's curse that had attacked, and the ice curse was even more deadly in this icy and snowy environment, and he fell to his knees with his chest in his hands, with a painful expression on his face.
"What's wrong with you, sir?" Seeing this scene, Fasqi hurriedly ran over to support him.
"The curse of the Lord has been committed again. Kael'thas said.
"Quick! take the blood of Marthridon. Fasqi shouted.
A Naga mage walked briskly over with a bottle and poured the liquid into the Demon Hunter's mouth.
Illidan slowly raised his head and said, "No! I must destroy Arthas before he reaches the throne." You cover me. โ
With that, he flew into the sky with a dragon eagle, ignoring the dissuasion of Fasqi and Kael'thas behind him.
When the dragon eagle flew above the throne, a group of gargoyles suddenly flew in, and a group of gargoyles pounced on the thin dragon eagle with black pressure.
Illidan wielded his twin blades and sliced through these filthy monsters.
However, the dragon eagle is fragile after all, and there are too many gargoyles, although the demon hunter has strong combat power, but there are too many limitations in the air, and if one is not careful, the dragon eagle is bitten off his head and falls.
Illidan hurriedly flailed his wings, intending to make his last effort to fly to the throne. However, the Demon Hunter's wings were not suitable for long flights, but he spotted a silver-haired Death Knight running towards the Frozen Throne, landing right in front of the Death Knight.
The Death Knight was none other than Arthas, who, under the guidance of Anubarak, the Lich King's underground general, had come straight from the ancient Underground Kingdom and evaded the layers of defenses. Now, seeing the demon hunter descending from the sky, he couldn't help but be a little surprised.
"Death Knight, let's make a decision, I'm going to avenge Aeginos. Illidan yelled.
Arthas had heard about the Demon Hunter's later deeds, and that his own strength had been severely lost after the Frozen Throne was broken, and he thought that he was no match for the other party, and there was a trace of fear in his heart.
"Arthas!" Suddenly a voice shook the land like thunder, and cracks in the ice were formed under the tremor of the sound.
"Lich King!" shouted Illidan and Arthas at the same time.
"Arthas, you are all I have, and now I give you all the strength I have left, throw away your fear and go to battle, this is a battle for life and death. โ
A blue light appeared above the throne, and the blue light shot straight at the Death Knight.
The Death Knight raised his head, his eyes turning a glittering white, and his whole body exuded a strong intimidating power, and he said in a voice that seemed to tremble and as if two people were talking at the same time, "I, no, it should be usโfeel the power, we are Arthas, the Lich King." โ
At the same time, under the Icecrown Fortress, all the Scourge soldiers fell apart like shelves.
Although the appearance of the person in front of him was still Alsace, Illidan felt that he had changed into a different person, and a huge amount of energy was hidden in it. However, no matter how powerful the opponent is, he must fight to the death now, and he burns fire all over his body, and slashes at the death knight with his twin blades.
The Death Knight confronted him as he raised a silvery frost sorrow, and immediately a large amount of ice and snow surrounded him, and the greatsword caught the Demon Hunter's fatal blow.
The snow fell even tighter, and the fist-sized hail also smashed down, the ice and snow on the ground were not cold for a day, and no matter how powerful the demon hunter's flame was, it could not melt the entire ice and snow in Northrend, and the battle in Northrend Alsace undoubtedly occupied the right time and place.
Surrounded by snow and ice, Aesinos' twin blades collided with Frostmourn from time to time, sending out sparks of lightning.
The snow and ice were so uncomfortable, Illidan thought, and suddenly his heart tingled.
Arthas sensed the flaw and stabbed straight at him.
The stinger was like a python coming out of a hole to catch people off guard, and the blade of Aeginos was not suitable for parrying such a stab, so Illidan had to wave his wings and fly backwards.
Arthas seemed to anticipate this, and instead of turning back, he leaped forward, then turned and unleashed Frost Sorrow.
Illidan felt a chill in his chest fall to the ground in the air, the sword and the curse combined to make him unable to move, unable to stand up no matter how he struggled.
The Death Knight didn't give him the fatal blow, he had something more important to do, rushing to the Frozen Throne.
The Demon Hunter fell to the ground helplessly and stretched out his hand, as if trying to grab Arthas, but it was in vain, and in the dimness he saw Arthas split the Frozen Throne and take out the armor inside and put it on his body. The voices of the undead outside rang out again, and the Scourge Corps came back to life.
"I ...... Failed!" Illidan lost consciousness as he uttered a few words, and the ice and snow gradually obscured his body.
