Chapter 556: The Undead Scourge Fights the Fourth Heavenly Calamity
The Scourge didn't stop because of the clear walls, the undead didn't get tired and didn't need supplies, and although the march was not fast, it was better to last.
It can march forever, and the speed of the march is faster than that of ordinary armies.
Not to mention that in the face of an army of more than two million undead, there is no army at all that can withstand this natural disaster and the torrent of death.
In just two days the Scourge had crossed the Hillsbrad Hills, on the third day the Antana River, on the fourth day over the Rim Mountains, and by the fifth day the advance of the army had entered the territory of Dalaran.
However, even with such a rapid march, the adventurers gathered in Dalaran were still very dissatisfied.
I've waited so long for the Scourge Legion to come, and I'm hungry and thirsty.
Those who are anxious and bold and have good skills can't help but run to Hillsbrad and start playing guerrilla warfare.
Although the army of more than two million undead looks very terrifying, but the large scale also has the disadvantage of being large, stretching for dozens of miles, marching together for more than a dozen roads, and the army of more than two million marching at the same time, lacking organization and no formation.
In particular, most of the Scourge legions are brainless skeleton zombies who are very slow to respond to attacks.
These days, with all kinds of videos uploaded to the network -
What, "Single Brush Scourge Legion", "How to Use Scourge Legion to Level Up Quickly", "Priest's Guide to Brush the Undead", ......
All kinds of bells and whistles of extreme operations have led to the interest of adventurers being attracted higher and higher, and there are more and more adventurers who run to upgrade and play equipment with the Scourge Legion.
These adventurers often work in small groups, squads, and teams, with a large number of mages and priests in their ranks, like flies, constantly attacking piecemeal around the huge and bloated army of the undead who are constantly wriggling forward.
Use all kinds of AOE magic to frantically slaughter those undead soldiers who have no long-range countermeasure ability, and brush up the undead soldiers to upgrade and fly coolly.
Anyway, adventurers are not afraid of death, and generally for the sake of safety, they will not bring too good equipment, even if they are discovered by the death lords in the legion, it is not too much of a loss to be wiped out by the death lord with the undead elite troops.
By the fifth day, there were tens of thousands of adventurers around the Scourge Legion.
Although there are also teams that accidentally attract more monsters to overturn, but in general, the adventurers are continuing to bleed the Scourge Legion.
Even some bosses were pulled out of the army lineup and killed.
At this moment, the alliance's army was already waiting outside Dalaran City, ready for battle.
The top leaders of the alliance all gathered together to discuss strategies.
"Report! The Scourge was approaching, and it was still 70 miles away from Dalaran. β
"Keep investigating."
"Aren't the forces of the Horde and the Night Alliance here yet arriving?" Murphy asked Godwin.
Godwin shook his head, "The Horned Eagle Knight of the Night Alliance has arrived, but there are only thousands of troops, which is useless at all, as for the tribe - I guess it is impossible to come, the tribe and the alliance have too deep hatred, even if they sign the alliance agreement, they are still neutral units, and you don't know those adventurers, if the tribe comes, it will definitely fight." β
"It seems that it can only be defended by our alliance alone, and it feels a bit alone."
Although this time the countries of the alliance understood that the threat of the Scourge Legion was definitely not a joke, and responded to Dalaran's request for help, they also left a large number of troops to protect their own land, mainly to guard against the constant plague attacks launched by the Cursed Sect.
I have to say that although this cursed sect has been targeted by players who know the history quite badly, it has also achieved the meaning of their existence.
As a result, the troops sent by various countries to Dalaran to support were obviously small, and the total strength of the alliance outside Dalaran City at this time was only 500,000, which was completely incomparable to the two or three million Scourge Legions.
"But don't worry, don't forget that we still have adventurers."
This made everyone breathe a sigh of relief, at least the player heroes breathed a sigh of relief.
The Alliance is the first official option to open, so the number of adventurers is also the largest, and now it is a large-scale event like the Scourge Invasion, and there is no level limit, resulting in the number of adventurers outside the entire Dalaran City as many as one million, just ask you how to lose.
The army of two million undead looks terrifying, but it doesn't seem like anything in front of a million adventurers.
The most powerful thing about the Lich King is that he can transform slain soldiers and heroes into part of the Scourge Legion, but adventurers are not afraid of transformation, and with these millions of adventurers, heaps are also piled up to kill him.
The real threat is the Lich King himself, as well as Galakron, the two world-destroying bosses.
Once Dalaran is captured by the Scourge Legion and the ritual of summoning the Burning Legion is completed, then the plot campaign will be considered a failure, and it will be useless to have more adventurers at that time, because once the Scourge Legion becomes a sitting household from the Mobile Legion, it will also gain the permission to refresh locally, and then it will be an endless protracted battle.
However, those NPCs don't have this kind of awareness, and in their perception, adventurers are just a rabble, and they use a lot of money.
At this moment,
The six-member council of Dalaran headed by Antonidas, as well as the generals of various countries, all looked solemn and mobilized before the war.
Antonidas (Speaker Dalaran): "This time the alliance is facing an unprecedentedly powerful enemy, and we are alone and can only fight alone, but for the safety of the alliance and the survival of this world, we must fight to the end......"
In the conference room, there was a tragic atmosphere.
At the same timeβ
Winter is approaching (Death Knight): "Master, there are a large number of adventurer squads on the left and right flanks of the army, and we have lost a total of about half a million troops in the past few days, although they are all low-level cannon fodder troops, but if it continues like this, it is still very dangerous to intimidate." β
What? Half a million troops?
Gul'dan was also shocked, a total of two million troops, only five days to be killed a quarter, these adventurers are so bullish?
Fortunately, Dalaran is about to arrive, and if he walks for a few more days, I am afraid that his own troops will be wiped out if he does not reach the place.
Gul'dan suddenly panicked in his heart.
Gul'dan (Lich King): "These damned adventurers, Conan, the Barbarian King, winter is coming, and you two will each lead a team of Frostbone Dragons to clean up this garbage. β
With the Air Force being dispatched, the raiding activities of the adventurers were finally interrupted, and no matter how good the mobility of the adventurers was, they could not compare to the air units.
Thousands of teams of adventurers were wiped out by hordes because they did not retreat in time.
However, it is a pity that not a single captive was captured in a circle, and not a single undead spirit was transformed.
But the Lich King has long been accustomed to these strange adventurers.
It doesn't matter, just capture Talaran and it's all over.
At this time, the alliance also sent its own air force, and the air units of the two sides were already fighting fiercely for air supremacy.
In the midst of this continuous attack, the vanguard of the Scourge Legion finally reached a place thirty miles outside the city of Dalaran.
Kel'thugad looked at Dalaran in front of him, and his heart was also full of mixed feelings.
After two years of not seeing each other, he finally returned, and the former member of the Council of Six is now the Death Lord of the Scourge.
Kel'thugad has not yet been transformed into a lich, the transformation of a lich requires a strong magical power, and there is only one chance, in order to obtain the ability of immortality, he must make a life box with a powerful magic item, but he already has a goal, Dalaran's treasure trove, there are a large number of powerful treasures, and even artifacts, he can choose one as his life box.
Of course, everything can only be realized after winning the war.
At this time, Dalaran's defenders also completed the assembly, and did not choose to defend the city, but directly lined up outside the city.
An army of 500,000 spread over a cross-section of more than ten miles, and in front of this cross-section was an army of up to a million adventurers.
The quality of these millions of adventurers is naturally not very high, and a large number of trumpets of more than ten or twenty levels are mixed in, but even so, compared to the natural disaster legion of a large number of skeleton zombie cannon fodder troops, the quality of individual soldiers is still better on the alliance's side.
Looking at the black pressure like a tide of defenders, the Lich King suddenly felt that something was wrong, how could he feel that the number of enemies was not less than his own Scourge Legion?
His original plan of drowning Dalaran with a tidal wave of undead in one fell swoop seemed a little difficult to implement.
Kel'thugad (Necromancer Archmage): "Master, are you still fighting according to a predetermined strategic plan?" β
The Lich King's plan was to use a non-stop assault of low-level undead cannon fodder to drain the defenders' firepower - in the Lich King's vision, the enemy would be hiding in the city.
When the firepower of Dalaran has been detected clearly, and the magic power has been consumed, the elite troops will be dispatched to break the city in one fell swoop.
Now, however, things are not quite right.
But there is no way to change something wrong, the army of two million undead, the front are all low-level cannon fodder, crowded together in a mess, and there is no way to adjust the formation.
You can only go straight to it.
Gul'dan (Lich King): "That's right, according to plan, first echelon, attack on all fronts!" Non-stop offensive until the enemy is destroyed! Go up, the soldiers of the Scourge Legion, the warriors from the bitter winter, and devour these living people. β
At the roar of a dragon from Polelius, the Scourge Corps moved!
Countless undead warriors let out strange roars, wielding rusty swords, and the tide rushed to Dalaran, and on Dalaran's side, countless adventurers also flocked to the Scourge Legion like a tide.
The players shouted excitedly and howled excitedly, this kind of big scene of a million-person national war, it was too cool to fight.
Don't talk about protecting the world, fighting against the Lich King, or fighting bosses to explode equipment.
It's just a big battle like this, but it's an unprecedented gaming experience.
Rumble!
The two torrents suddenly collided together, and the Cataclysmic Undead had no concept of formation or coordination at all, and were completely mindless charges, biting, slashing, and releasing the hatred of their undead creatures for the living.
The adventurers, on the other hand, are more terrifying than the undead, completely in a state of madness, and I don't know if the game is too realistic, or the undead are too scary, many adventurers are completely red-eyed, while pouring potions like crazy slashing, completely ignoring the concepts of teammates, formations, etc.
There are enemies on all sides, and as long as they are not alive, they will all be killed.
The destructive light of magic continued to explode in the crowd, and those mages who were hiding behind were so refreshed that every shot of magic could hit the enemy in pieces, which was simply a level of heaven.
However, the natural disasters and undead are not dry, and there are also a large number of necromancers, necromancers, and corpse witches, including many elites and small boss-level powerhouses, who release the plague of death into the crowd, and use corpse explosion to detonate those fallen corpses, flesh and blood flying, poison scattered, plague raging, and frost piercing.
Pieces of undead and adventurers fell, and judging from the scene, it turned out to be the Scourge Legion who had the upper hand.
Mainly because it was attacked by the guerrillas before, a large number of low-level cannon fodder was consumed, but now the average quality of the troops has improved a lot, plus there are too many people who are sneaking and playing tricks among the adventurers, and many people are hiding behind and are unwilling to rush up to die, resulting in no one willing to rush up to the current platoon soon after the first wave of troops was consumed.
This caused the Scourge to move forward.
Gul'dan breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.
The army of the Scourge is still very strong.
However, to his surprise, soon the front gradually began to move on the side of the Wang Heavenly Calamity Legion, and pushed back.
It turned out that after the resurrection of those dead adventurers, they ran back to the battlefield, they had just died once, and it was when the fire was on the top, and they saw a lot of adventurers Wuyang Wuyang hiding behind and unwilling to rush forward, and suddenly became angry one by one.
They simply crashed into the back in droves, squeezing the adventurers' formation forward and moving forward.
Now those adventurers who used to be in the second row and now become the first row can't do their best, the formation of the army of millions of adventurers is so crowded that there is no place to escape if they want to.
You can only keep moving forward with the flow of people, killing enemies in front of you, or being killed by enemies in front of you.
The surging tide of people and the undead constantly pounded on each other, and the waves set off a bloody rain of flesh and bones.
Gul'dan was stunned, these adventurers were so invincible to kill, and they could be resurrected, who was the undead in the end? Who is the Scourge Legion?
Behind the adventurer's army, the alliance's top generals were all dumbfounded.
Especially those NPCs, Antonidas, Muradine Copperbeard, Uther, Duke of Lothar......
Although it was true that a call for adventurers was issued before the war, no one ever took adventurers seriously.
As a result, it suddenly turned out that it seemed that there was nothing to do with them in this battle, and it seemed that the adventurers had a tendency to overturn the Scourge Legion, which was ......
Everyone's CPUs fell into a daze one by one.
Murphy, Godwin and the others were equally surprised, although they were well aware of the power of adventurers, but they had never had adventurers assembled on such a large scale before, and they did not expect that the number of adventurers would be so terrifying after reaching a certain level.
Where is this adventurer, it is clearly the legendary fourth natural disaster.
Godwin (King Lordaeron): "How do I feel like there's nothing wrong with us?" β
Darkseid (King Dixie): "I say, will the Scourge be bulldozed by the adventurers?" β
Morgan Lisa (Grand Arcanist): "Wait a minute, if the adventurers wipe out the Scourge in one wave, whose head will the Lich King?" β
Voldemort (Shadow Mage): "Nonsense, it's going to be whoever is close." β
Everyone looked at each other, and suddenly they all reacted.
At this time, if anyone can rush to the front and cause a little damage to the Lich King, and when the Lich King is killed by the adventurer, then they can pick up a plot and kill it for nothing.
Not only the Lich King, but all the bosses of the Scourge can be calculated in this way.
Thinking of this, the heroes present suddenly couldn't sit still.
Godwin (King Lordaeron): "Lordaeron soldiers, we must not let our heroic adventurers fight alone, for the sake of Lordaeron, for the alliance, rush with me!" "With the Silver Hand, the Knights attacked.
Darkseid (King Dixi): "Soldiers of the Kingdom of Dixi, you must not let the name of the mountain warriors be tarnished, and you will fight with me. β
Kaya Windranger (Ranger General): "What are you waiting for, Elven warriors, for the glory of Quel'Thalas, to attack." β
Watch as the troops break away from the line and attack.
Those NPCs couldn't sit still, and they really deserved to be the Holy Light King, so heroic, so fearless.
I'm going, the king of Dixie is so heroic as a king of a principality?
What, an elven general like Kaya Windranger is also on it?
No, no, we have to do it too.
"For Kazmodan!"
"For the Alliance!"
"For the glory of Stormwind!"
In the midst of a burst of orders, the respective legions of the alliance launched an attack on all fronts.
Gul'dan looked at the alliance army that took the initiative to attack, and his face was also iron-blue.
Gul'dan (Lich King): Come, all come, come to your doomed demise, mortals, and meet your final fate, ants! Soldiers, warriors, and servants of the Scourge Legion, for the sake of your master, kill all living beings! β
The core force of the Scourge Legion, the Death Lords of hundreds of meters, the Scourge Boss, led the elite monster group under their command, and also launched a full-scale attack.
