Volume VI: Ice and Fire 32 Attack Naxxramas
Naxxramas is the largest floating fortress in the Scourge of the Dead. No one knows how this fortress was built, but it existed before Arthas ascended to the throne as the Lich King, and it was a structure near the Frost Throne that was originally built on the ground, resembling a palace.
I stayed on the ground when I was fighting for Alsace in Northrend, but when I left Northrend, they flew up. Naxxramas is the biggest of them.
It's a very large thing, or rather a fortress at all, a fortress that can hold thousands of people. And it's not only big, but it also has the most complete supporting facilities, Soval said that he has never entered Naxxramas before, and Naxxramas is almost the private domain of Kel'Sugar, the private palace. Acherous was actually a small command post, and his functions were nothing compared to Naxxramas's.
And this time they made mental preparations in advance, but after entering, they were still shocked by the scene inside. It's too big!
The sheer scale surprised the Death Knights, but the content was completely unexpected. There are six major areas, four of which are their functional areas, and each area will be divided into three or four small areas, each of which has a different role.
In addition to these four areas, the remaining two areas are dedicated to Kel'thugad, that is, private spaces, one of which is his dormitory, or command post, and the other is his private laboratory.
What is the experiment there...... His ambition can be seen.
The four major functional areas have a test area and a training area. Not only are they studying how to create more powerful Abominations, more powerful Stitchtails, and more powerful Aberrations, but they are also studying more virulent and contagious plagues. and Kel'thugad training his own Death Knight.
As for his private laboratory, there was a dragon in it.
That's right, dragons, dead dragons! He's mimicking the Lich King himself, and he's trying to awaken a dragon.
I once entered Naxxramas to accompany Darien to save his father. I know a little bit about it, but after Thorval described the battle and the process of taking over the clean-up of it, I'm more confident about defeating the Lich King anyway.
The process of the army pouring into Naxxramas is not simpler than the siege, the griffin knights are the first echelon of the attack, as many death knights, paladins, magicians, and shield-wielding warriors are the vanguard, followed by the second echelon, the goblin airship is not incapable of flying in this weather, but the load capacity is very demanding, but this is already the best, fastest, and most effective way they can do it.
The third echelon is the support of two floating fortresses.
The artillery on the ground at the height of Naxxramas is simply powerless, so the ground forces are simply dry stare. The person who flies up is basically a dead person, and the person who can come back alive in the end is simply a miracle. How much more Lady Luck has to take care of him to survive in that environment!
The air there is not good, I've been there, so I know what it smells like, and in some areas, that air is harmful to the living. One of them is where the Scourge's spores are cultivated, and the air is filled with all sorts of invisible spores that can cause serious problems.
This is not a simple itchy skin, the eyes will itch, will be red, will tears, keep tearing, nasal mucus will appear in the nasal cavity, from the beginning of the water-like snot quickly developed into white snot with bubbles, then sticky, then yellow, and finally will stink into blue-gray and bloody, some people actually can't get to this step and it's over, they will have difficulty breathing, and there are many people who are suffocated.
In the end, it was the Death Knight and the Forsaken who managed to stop the spillover of the creations in that area, and after the melee began, it was not a big problem for the monsters in some areas to escape, but once the monsters in this area escaped, it would be catastrophic.
Those monsters were grown from the corpses of giants, the Vikus.
You know what I mean? To grow them is to plant those corpses in the ground, and let those mushroom-like things grow on them, and those mushrooms feed on the flesh and blood of those corpses, and they grow wildly. And then the corpses were resurrected, and the corpses began to spread the evil spores everywhere with the modified poisonous mushrooms.
Polluting the environment through the slow spread of the air is only one of their methods, they will also grow a larger bulbous of pus, those pustules have more spores in them, and they are more dense in them, and when the pustule explodes, the surrounding people are not infected, but directly choked, and once choked in the lungs, the warrior will be incapacitated in a matter of seconds.
There is only one thing they can do, and that is to cough, and cough non-stop.
Compared to other areas, this area caused the most damage to the battle, the most dead people, and the most troublesome to clean up in the end.
Oh, they ended up using the most primitive method, fire.
Of course, other areas are not much better, just comparatively. There was an area where spiders were raised, and it was full of spiders, large and small, and those spiders really made Soval's scalp tingle.
The spiders crawled all over the walls, and the further you went, the more spiders there were, the more disgusting they became. In such a place, ordinary soldiers simply cannot survive, hundreds of small spiders besiege a person, they are small, so crawling into the sleeves and crotches of the soldiers, the soldiers cannot fight at all. And this spider seems to be endless, which makes it difficult for the soldiers attacking this area.
Finally the soldiers retreated, and the magician used fire magic to burn and advance, and the endless spiders made them dare not slack off at all, they could only stubbornly move forward. However, there are not only small spiders here, but also spiders the size of rabbits, spiders the size of dogs, and elephants that are much larger than the size of elephants.
Not only did they have venom, but also cobwebs and slime, and they dragged away our dead or wounded and fallen soldiers, and later saw those people wrapped in the air or piled up in corners to become food for the little spiders and food for the big spiders.
And it's not just spiders in this area, but also people who keep spiders. But all of them are members of the Cursed Sect. Even those Death Knights admired the people of the Cursed Sect who raised spiders, and this was not a disgusting feeling, but a physical and psychological disgust.
Soval was not involved in the fighting in this area, he was involved in the attack in the Abomination Zone. He had created countless abominations with his own hands, and all the abominations in this area, the great ones that could be named, were all his handiwork, and this time he put an end to them with his own hands.
Of course, he realized the evil of these creations in his sober consciousness, and he also deeply felt that these things he created were so terrifying.
There are many known abominations and stitching monsters in this area, but the most famous and powerful one is Grobrus, one is called Parchvik, and the other is Tadius.
I met that guy named Grobruce back then, and this guy was kind of a bad guy. A bad stomach.
He is the best fusion of bile abomination, and the bile and venom in his stomach not only do not corrode his own body, but also carry a very large amount. Not only can he put a needle into a person's body, but he can also spit, or spray venom.
This guy is tough to beat, but it's true that it's the easiest guy to beat in this area. And that guy named Parchwick is a nightmare, a pure nightmare. That guy is definitely the most violent of all the abominations.
I had an abomination called Ramsden back then, which made a great impression on me. The huge iron hook he threw out, the sluice knife he wielded in his hand, and a huge axe could no longer be described as destructive. But Soval said that Ramsden was as gentle as a baby in front of Parchwick.
On its own, this one guy actually killed the attacking army twice!
The soldiers rushed forward and were as weak as paper paste in the face of Pachvik.
Patchwick is not made of Veku, but by Storm Giants. I know these creatures, I've seen them before, they're half-elemental, half-flesh beings like I said. They are extremely tall, and their four-meter stature is uncommon.
Four meters!
Ramsden was only about two meters tall, I remember, and Pachwick was close to four meters! Can you imagine what his weapon looks like?
Can't resist it, can't resist it at all!
The heavily armored soldier with the shield was smashed down by him with an axe. The shields in the hands of the soldiers, the armor on their bodies, were not much harder under his feet than the aluminum lids. He can hack as many people as he rushes up.
Bows and arrows are inactive, the effects of frost magic are basically ineffective, and fire magic is ...... Well, you have no idea what kind of environment he was in that place, and the flames couldn't burn in that pool of green liquid.
Even if the paladin rushed forward, the time it took to support him in front of his huge sword was greatly shortened by rushing up against the shield of holy light. There were those unlucky people who couldn't run and didn't dodge, and they were smashed directly at once, and they could only use a shovel to shovel up his body.
Twice!
They rushed twice and were all killed, but Pachewick didn't chase them, he just wandered in the green water. I haven't told you about it yet, and the water isn't clean, have you ever heard of the ooze monsters?
There's it in there.
Ha! Do you think this one is the hardest? Of course not, you think that the mushroom grower is not as strong as this because you don't know enough, you just feel the violence I said, but you don't understand suffocation at all.
That feeling is more painful than death itself!
