Volume IV The Rule of Chaos 208 Two Sides and Three Swords
Fighting on the back of the water is a good way to fight in war, and it can often turn decay into magic, inspire the warriors to sacrifice their lives and forget their deaths and defeat the enemy.
It's understandable if you use it when you really can't help it, but then again...... It's really enough for a commander to get his own army to such a point.
I don't like to fight against the odds, it sounds tragic, but it's tragic to think about. I don't think it's better to do less of this kind of thing that has no way back...... Although I also put myself in a situation where there is no way back when I do certain things, I would say that I should try to do as little or no as much as possible.
It's good if it happens, but if it doesn't...... That's the only way to die.
In fact, King Anastrid had no need to fight that battle. Although he has lost face, he is a king, and he must plan for his people! But no, what he wants is to break the net with us.
Dalaran did send people, and since Dalaran could send people, it meant that other kingdoms would also lend a hand. Far from it, forget about the Kurtilas people, when they come by boat, it is estimated that the children will make soy sauce. Let's just say that the closer ones, such as the Hammer tribe and the Stormgardians, can come to support.
I don't know if he didn't think of it or didn't want to hear it, he didn't want to listen, he just wanted to touch us...... Hmph, this is not a question of a single soldier and a nest of bears. He led his people directly to die together, and I don't understand what he thinks anyway.
At the end of the battle, there were corpses on the riverbank, corpses in the river, corpses in the woods, a kilometer radius, corpses everywhere. The river is red, and the land is red, and when the sun goes down...... The sky is also red.
A part of the female elves, led by Sylvanas...... The undead examine the corpses on the riverbank. I knew what Sylvanas was trying to do, and in the end her face was ugly but not so ugly, and the only body she brought back was the body of King Anastrid, not her sister.
King Anastri was not killed by Arthas, and it is still unknown who killed him, and when his body was found, the king of the great elven kingdom had a slap-sized wound in his chest.
It should have been hacked to death by abomination.
And when the king's body was carried to us, the expression on the face of the traitor was a little relieved.
This expression disgusted Sylvanas with extreme disgust.
Despite this, Sylvanas did not collect the body of her original king, and we did not bury the tragic king, but left his body there after knowing that he was king.
Arthas did not continue to insult his corpse, let alone resurrect him to make him a member of Arthas's men, which was already a great respect for him.
And so we left Quel'Thalas, leaving behind a kingdom that had been utterly destroyed.
In fact, after we returned to Lordaeron soil, Arthas thought that the preliminary work was done, and his original idea was to return to Lordaeron first, but one night I found that this was not the case after Kel'thugad left the camp.
I wasn't going to follow it, but my curiosity sparked.
He certainly didn't.
This guy walked quite far, and I followed it even farther away, about thirty meters away, and I couldn't see it clearly if it was any further away. However, I followed for a long time, and finally I couldn't see what was going on. It was so dark that the light from its body barely made me know it was there through his clothes, but ...... I don't know who Kel'thugad was, or what he said.
But when Kel'thugad returned, I suddenly found another man, the traitor with the name of something, who had come to exactly the same place where Kel'thugad had just come.
This discovery made me suspicious.
What is the purpose of two seemingly unrelated people coming to the same place? After both of them left, I slowly approached the place where they had stopped, but I didn't notice anything. So I went there again after dawn the next day, and I found that there was a special kind of footprint left there.
That's clearly a hoof! Huge hooves!
I wondered if I had ever seen footprints of this shape before, but no other creature had footprints of this shape except for animals like sheep and cows. And this footprint is very large, it is absolutely impossible for it to be left by a sheep, and ...... I didn't hear any other strange noises last night with such a large footprint.
Ha! Later, I found out what it was left behind.
Since then I've been secretly observing these two people, especially the elven traitor, and I've always felt that something is wrong. Until one day he made a proposal to Arthas, destroy Dalaran!
His reasoning was that although the mages of Dalaran could not help the elves win the war, they would definitely organize other countries to continue to resist, and they might even form an alliance to fight against him.
Arthas glanced at him and only snorted.
I feel disdainful of this, but it's interesting that Kel'thugad actually seconded it! Kel'thugad said that he was right, and that he was willing to go to Dalaran to avenge his expulsion.
What did you say? What do you say about Alsace going to Dalaran?
No, no, no, that's nonsense! Lich King ...... Belch...... How can I explain it to you?
You're actually the third Lich King. You don't have to be angry...... The original first Lich King is being carried by you on the head.
Yes...... It's this armor, and the weapons in Arthas's hands. It's all the things that the first Lich King's soul is attached to. At that time, Arthas had only obtained the sword, but the true soul core......
Well, yes, that's what you wear on your head.
I heard this from Arthas and some demons later.
Yes, the Devil. I've dealt with it!
That Lich King isn't human, you know?
Ha! You guessed it wrong! That Lich King is an orc! And it's a ...... Very powerful orcs. But after the orc attack on the north failed, he was also killed by someone who somehow killed him.
And then...... The orc's soul was captured by the demons, who left him in Northrend. But the spiritual power of this thing was so strong that it polluted Northrend, and even sent its weak spiritual power to the distant human kingdom, and then it was perceived by people like Kel'thugad.
And people like Kel'thugad were originally obedient to the Lich King, but this kind of thing with milk is easy to turn back.
Then he came into contact with the demons.
Kel'thugad didn't have to be killed, but ...... He had to die.
To be killed by Arthas! Then let Arthas take care of the lives of the people of a city with his own hands, only then can Arthas get here smoothly......
You don't understand?
The Lich King who has only a soul left...... It takes a physical body, you know? Alsace is the vessel of this soul, you know!
But don't you think it's strange that Arthas only got the Lich King's weapon in Northrend? It stands to reason that the Lich King told Arthas to take this thing on your head and fit it together!
It's not that he doesn't want to, it's that he can't do it!
Yes, that Lich King can't do that! He's a puppet! Pure puppets! The people who really control these things...... Be...... Those demons!
Did I make it clear?
Tut...... Your comprehension skills are a little weak, are you also old?
The Lich King wants to find the Soul Container, but the Demon doesn't want the Lich King to find a Soul Container, and the Demon wants someone with enough strength to stir things up, mess up the world, and then ...... The bigger demons behind this group of demons ...... Summoned into the world.
Well?
Got it?
So Kel'thugad is completely his mother's...... Chess pieces, Arthas is also a chess piece, this ...... This Lich King...... Also.
Well, it's all the same.
You? You......
You should be too! But you're ...... now. Very good. The Lich King is dead, gone, and gone, and Arthas, the Lich King, is now in ashes. You're good enough to talk to me like that, and you still have your own mind that doesn't turn into a madman like Arthas......
You are actually free.
Belch...... Neither is it.
You've got to make sure the undead don't run around, don't you?
Ha! To put it that way, you are not a pawn! You are a great, noble, selfless, dedicated...... Good! You should be admired by all people.
I don't know if Stormwind has erected a statue for you.
No more nonsense...... You understand what I just said, don't you?
But do you think Arthas knows these things?
As far as I can observe...... As I know...... He doesn't know!
Yes! He must have been kept in the dark.
Arthas is crazy, but who is it that makes him crazy? Is it a demon? Not really! It's the sword, it's the soul of the sword! It's the Lich King!
Does the Lich King know what the demons think?
I think he should know some, but he probably doesn't know everything.
Kel'thugad listened to the Lich King, and then he took refuge in Melganis, the demon's man, as the Lich King knew, he knew it. But when Arthas went to Northrend, he only got the sword and not the helmet, who could do it except the demons?
Who else do you say? Those beetles?
I don't think so!
And the demon only let Arthas get the sword and then go about it, and didn't let them merge with him, so it was obvious that he was using him, wasn't it? Do you think the Lich King doesn't know?
But after the demon played this big circle...... He probably doesn't know what he wants to do! If he had known this, he could have summoned Arthas back to Northrend immediately.
Arthas, who possesses Frost Sorrow, is very powerful, and there is no need to be modest...... I'm not as weak as you think.
So...... Alsace later arrived in Laran, and this trip was actually completely deceived!
And the one who deceived him...... There are two, one is called Kel'thugad and the other is called ...... That what the hell traitor!
