Chapter 917: Ending: Prologue

Previous Chapter

Different from the noisy situation outside, the splendid palace of Jinbi looked particularly deserted, and the heavily armed guards were lined up in two rows, with grim expressions.

"Salute ......"

"Brush ...... Brush...... Brush ......"

With the order of the captain of the guard, the soldiers of the Cataclysmic Legion on both sides raised their weapons in their hands, turned their faces slightly, and looked at Adele and his party who came from Shanshan, with deep respect in their eyes.

Adele, a top student of the Cataclysmic Royal Military Academy, a rising star in the military world, a powerful hero, with supreme glory, returned triumphantly.

All this, in the hearts of all soldiers, planted the seeds of loyalty.

They look at their leaders with reverence, and perhaps one day, they will have the opportunity to serve under their leaders and gain their own glory in war.

Adele nodded slightly, and walked expressionlessly under the gaze of everyone.

Walking through the red-carpeted corridor, Adele came to the front of a huge palace, where she stood slightly, raised her head, squinted her eyes, and looked at the tallest building in the Icecrown Castle.

In the impression, she had only been to this place twice, once when she had just set out on an expedition, and the second time was now, although Adele was already the commander of the Scourge Legion, this place still made her feel very far away.

"Your Highness, we have arrived ......" the captain of the guard made a humble gesture, his face smiling but his tone with a hint of unquestionable, "I don't think we should have to keep Your Majesty waiting too long, what do you say?"

"Let's go!"

Adele was surprisingly lifeless, nodded faintly, and walked in first, and the captain of the guard had to follow quickly.

A solemn hall was lined with guards armed to the teeth, armed with weapons, standing majestically on either side, their faces with cold steel masks, making it impossible to see their faces.

Along the huge stone steps more than ten steps high, an old man in a purple robe sat on a high throne, holding a long scepter in his hand and a pure gold crown on his head, and his majestic gaze scanned the people below.

He is the de facto controller of the Scourge Legion, the Scourge God Emperor Fismarck.

"Your Majesty!"

Adele and her party knelt down on one knee and saluted the Scourge God Emperor.

"Get up!"

A smile finally appeared on Fismarck's face, and he motioned for Adele and the others to stand up.

"Adele, my child...... You've done a great job, you've led your troops on your first expedition, defeated the human who called yourself the Lich King, and brought the Hocanthic District, which had been lost for 100,000 years, back to the arms of the undead, and I'm honestly satisfied with the result......" Fismarck said with a smile on his face, tapping the armrest of the throne gently, "Your merits...... Enough to go down in history, and you...... Will also become a new hero!"

"Your name will be on the word throughout Icecrown Castle, and the entire Scourge will be glorious for your victory......" Fismarck smiled, "and I...... I will personally bestow you with the honour and give you all the ...... you deserve."

"Your Majesty has won the award!" Adele lowered her head and replied lightly, she paused, "I accidentally got something during the Battle of the Forgotten City, and I want to present it to Your Majesty......"

Fismarck's eyes lit up, "Scourgess Scepter?"

Adele nodded.

Fismarck was overjoyed when he heard this, "Take it immediately!"

Adele glanced at the necromancer next to her, nodded slightly, the necromancer understood, flashed in his hand, and took out a black box like a trick, Adele took the black box, walked up the steps step by step, and walked towards the Fismarck God Emperor.

"Quick...... Hurry up and ......."

Fismarck's heart is impatient, the Scourgeon Scepter, the artifact that all the undead want to have, symbolizes the highest power, with it, Fismarck is the rightful Lord of the Undead, and this day, he has been waiting too long,

Just when Adele was only three steps away from the God Emperor Fismarck, suddenly, a mutant was born.

"Huh-" With a bang, what was pulled out of the black box was not a scourge scepter, but a sharp sword emitting cold light, and at this time, Adele suddenly raised her head, her blood-red eyes were murderous.

Adele rushed to the throne in three steps and two steps, and in the exclamation of everyone in the main hall, the sharp sword pierced deep into Fismarck's abdomen.

Everyone was stunned, no one thought that Adele would suddenly make a move to assassinate His Majesty the God Emperor, because the distance was too close and defenseless, the God Emperor Fismarck did not dodge this fatal sword......

The expression on Fismarck's face was full of shock, but there was not much panic on his face, he was the God Emperor, one of the powerful gods, and he was not so easy to kill, but the next moment, his eyes opened suddenly.

The necromancer standing beside Adele slowly took off his hood, revealing a human face, and the suppressed power was released without any scruples, and only then did the Fismarck God Emperor realize that this guy was actually a god, and his power was also suppressed by this god who was more powerful than him, and he couldn't even use a trace of strength.

Humans! Gods!

Who else could have these two identities? Looking at the entire main plane, there was only one Ron, at this time, Fismarck finally understood, but what he didn't understand was, why did Adele do this...... What's in it for her?

Fismarck's gaze slowly moved upward, with a hint of anger, with a hint of inquiry, but the whole time, he didn't ask.

Adele did not disappoint him, and said lightly, "From the moment you killed Master Tito...... I was determined to avenge him...... Your Majesty the Divine Emperor, do you have anything else to say today?"

"......I see," Fismarck muttered, a wry smile on the corner of his mouth, as a person in power, of course he would not give such a stupid order, it was all Scarlett's own initiative, but what was the use of saying it now? He regretted that he did not take a good look at Scarlett and let her do something stupid.

Adele jerked the sword in her hand, and Fismarck's body fell limply.

"Ding...... Bite...... Ding......"

The crown of pure gold fell from Fismarck's head and rolled out of the way with a crisp sound.

Everything happened so fast that no one thought that Adele, the commander of the Scourge Legion, would actually plan a perfect assassination, and many of the guards had not yet come to their senses.

By the time they came to their senses, Fismarck was lying in a pool of blood.

"Protecting the Emperor ......"

"Kill them ......"

The guards woke up from a dream and pounced on them with a roar.

"Humph!"

Ron's eyes flashed, and the vast, powerful death divine power spread, killing several guards who rushed to the front like lightning, shocking everyone.

"The Lich King is here, who dares to stir up!"

Char let out a coquettish cry and stopped in front of Ron, his long snow-white legs shook and kicked a headless corpse far away......

The guards' footsteps stopped, and they saw the Scourge's Scepter in Ron's hand, spinning like a fierce beast that chooses people to devour, and the powerful death divine power oppresses everyone breathlessly.

The guards hesitated, their eyes filled with doubt and fear, and at this moment, there was a loud "boom", and the ground outside the hall collapsed suddenly, revealing a huge, monster-like figure in the smoke and dust that rose from the sky, and the monster waved its stings, opened its teeth and claws, and let out a terrifying cry.

That's the direction of the "Dark Altar".

In the cavern that collapsed, a steady stream of undead soldiers poured out of it, led by the giant monster, to fight the guards of the Dark Altar.

They...... Attacking the "Dark Altar" of the Fismarck Emperor......

The guards in the main hall turned pale and their legs and stomachs trembled slightly, knowing that once the "Dark Altar" was destroyed, the Scourge God Emperor Fismarck would never be resurrected.

The "Dark Altar" was originally a heavily guarded place in the palace, but if the current situation continues, it will be breached sooner or later.

The guards looked at Ron, who was holding the Scourge, and then at Fismarck, who was lying in a pool of blood, and couldn't make up their minds for a moment.

"Everything...... It's all over!"

At this moment, Adele, who was holding a blood-stained sword, stood up and turned slowly, staring at the guards with a cold gaze.

"In my capacity as the commander of the Scourge Corps, I order you to lay down your arms immediately......"

"Dang Chang...... When the ...... is long"

Some of the guards listened and immediately threw their weapons on the ground, while others hesitated and, after some mental struggle, chose to obey the order.

At this time, the battle at the Dark Altar was also coming to an end, and under the frantic attack of the Spider Empress Rose, Fismarck's "Dark Altar" was in ruins......

When the blood-colored skull banner fluttered over Icecrown Castle again, Icecrown Castle had already changed owners, and Ron, with Adele's cooperation, controlled the city as quickly as possible, and with Icecrown Castle as the center, he continued to expand externally, and with the identity of the Scor of the Scourges and the successor of the Lich King, it was effortless to make these undead towns that were originally loyal to the God Emperor of Fismarck all surrender.

Half a year later, Saruman, the leader of the Plague Legion, declared allegiance to the new Lich King, Ron, and the Plague Legion returned to the Scourge banner.

Since this day, the undead main plane has been torn apart, and the chaotic situation of endless warfare has finally ended, and the undead race, which has been divided for 100,000 years, has also reunited under the leadership of the Scourge Legion......

......

One hundred years later......

On the wide battlefield, groups of black-clothed and black-armored undead armies marched silently, and slowly entered their battle queue according to the commander's deployment.

Skeletons, zombies, black knights, meat grinders, bone dragons, frost dragons and other undead creatures roared in low voices, quietly waiting for the order to fight, and from the sky, a large area of black oppression, like a rushing river, could not see the end, exuding a vast atmosphere.

It was an army of hundreds of millions of undead, the main force of the Scourge Legion, a blood-colored skeleton flag flying in the wind, and over the battlefield, countless dead souls flew in the air, making a terrible cry.

In front of this almost invincible army of the undead is the coalition of the Justice League, including angels from the Holy Angel Legion, Elemental Legion from Phoenix, Moon Shadow from the High Elves, Dwarven armies from Ironforge, and mechanical legions from the Goblins......

All of them had solemn expressions, as if they were facing a great enemy.

The Scourge Legion is the most powerful existence in the main plane world, they have been chaotic, once degenerated, once divided, and once fought with each other, but they have a great leader, this leader, taking over the scepter of the previous king, with great strength and wisdom, quickly ended the chaotic situation, reunited the divided undead, and became the most powerful existence in the main plane world.

The miracle was created by a human, a human necromancer, whose name was Ron.

As the Second Main Plane War unfolded, everyone learned about the strength and horror of the Scourge, the skeletal warriors like the ocean, the weird and terrifying undead magic, the unstoppable crypt spiders, and the air overlord Frost Dragon, these powerful and terrifying undead creatures are like a surging tide, with a fighting spirit that is not afraid of death, constantly attacking the alliance's defense line......

The Scourge army leveled the grasslands, conquered the mountains, crossed the sea, defeated one alliance army after another, conquered one city after another, and on this day, their footsteps finally stepped into the holy land of the main plane of order, known as one of the most incredible wonders of the main plane world - Cloudsdale.

Cloudsdale is the main city of the Holy Angel Legion, it is a floating in the air, a city built on a land of eight square kilometers, this land is dozens of kilometers above the ground, it is said to be able to touch the clouds, which is also the origin of the name of Cloudsdale.

Even the people who live here don't know what power this land in the air relies on to float, they believe it is a miracle, and it is also the main city of the Justice League, the Holy Angel Legion.

And on this day, the moment of decisive battle finally came, and the army of the Scourge once again stepped into Cloudsdale to fight the final decisive battle with the Legion of the Holy Angels, just like Herimus 100,000 years ago.

On the battlefield, solemn and solemn, everyone held their breath and waited for the horn of attack.

"Gotta ...... Get...... Got ......."

A heavily armored death knight ran out of the army of the undead, riding a death horse with a hideous and terrifying skeletal mask covering half of her face, and the dark purple lips under the mask showed a mocking smile.

At this time, she stood still, and suddenly drew a long sword, and the long sword pointed forward, and let out a terrible long roar......

"Kill ......"

The Scourge charged, and the undead came in like a tidal wave, vowing to drown everything, the ground, the vast army of the undead, the sky, the gargoyles, and the frost dragons.

"Array, meet the enemy......"

The commander of the Justice League calmly gave the order, his palms were full of sweat at the moment, everyone knew that this was the final decisive battle, once defeated, they would have no way back, behind them was Cloudsdale, the last fortress of the Justice League.

"Boom ......"

The army of the Justice League and the army of the undead of the Scourge Legion collided fiercely, and an earth-shattering loud bang erupted, and for a while, people turned over their horses, blood splashed everywhere, and corpses were everywhere, and the two sides launched a thrilling battle.

The Holy Angel Legion stood up, and their paladins formed a phalanx and continued to charge at the Scourge Legion, and they tore through the undead army like a sharp knife.

The Elemental Legion stood up, and their mages and magic knights unleashed massive areas of attack magic, raining down earth-shattering magic from the sky and bombarding the undead in a tidal wave.

The brave dwarves wielded a great axe disproportionate to their bodies and slashed the death knights off their horses.

The elves weaved a long defensive line with vines, and when the Scourge army rushed over, countless giant bears rushed out of the vines, and the undead who charged in front were immediately attacked.

The battle in the sky is also very fierce, the undead air force composed of gargoyles, bone dragons, and frost dragons has a decisive battle in the air with the angels, griffins, phoenixes, and dragons of the Justice League......

However, there are too many undead armies, densely packed, there are hundreds of millions, they go forward one after another, and they are not afraid of death to charge, wave after wave of tide surging towards the position of the Justice League, and in the stalemate, the position of the Justice League is crumbling.

The undead commander wearing the skull mask had a smile on her face, and she could already foresee that the Scourge would win the battle in the end......

At this time, the mutation is born!

From higher in the sky, there was a loud noise, as if something had exploded, and the air currents in the sky slowly condensed and turned into a huge whirlpool.

Immediately after, a trace of golden light appeared in the whirlpool, and the light became bigger and bigger, and it fell to the ground like a meteor......

"Boom ......"

There was an earth-shattering loud bang, and the huge impact crushed the undead beneath him into pulp.

In the golden light, a burly figure stood up, he was wearing golden armor, and the muscles on his body bulged out one by one, exuding a chilling momentum.

"What?"

The undead commander was stunned, his eyes under the skull mask filled with horror, "That'...... That's ......"

At this time, the golden-armored giant slowly raised his right hand, and in his right hand, there was a faint flash of thunder......

"Boom ......"

"Ah......h

Ron screamed and sat up suddenly, his eyes wide open, panting desperately and his face pale.

"Ron, you're having nightmares again......"

A voice came from behind him, and Ron looked back, but it was Cardina, who took a robe and gently draped it over Ron.

"Thank you!"

Ron tightened his clothes and smiled bitterly, he hadn't recovered from the shock he had just had.

Cardina hesitated, "Is it still the dream of the golden-armored giant?"

"Yes!"

Ron nodded, "It's been more than a month, and every time it's the same dream, and when I fall asleep, it involuntarily comes to mind......"

"That's not a good omen!" Cardina thought for a moment and nudged Ron, "Maybe you should talk to Sister Char about it......"

......

The next day, in the Hall of the Dead in Icecrown Castle, Ron had a meeting with Adele, Char, Saruman, Rose, Nicole, Cronia, and others, and he told everyone about his dreams last night.

"The nightmares of the gods are not simple things...... "The fear demon king Saruman said with a solemn expression, "nightmares are often a reflection of the subconscious in the heart, and those golden-armored giants must be something that even the gods fear......"

That is to say...... Lord Lich King, there's some kind of fear lurking in your heart......" Saruman said word for word, staring at Ron.

"Fear? I haven't found anything that really scares me right now......" Ron smiled and paused, "but what I want to know is - what are those gold-armored giants?"

Everyone fell silent, and no one could answer Ron's question.

"Golden Armor Giant!"

Spider Queen Rose pondered for a moment, then she suddenly raised her head, hesitated for a moment, and said, "When I followed the former Lich King Helimus before, I heard him talk about a powerful race......

"This race was born as a god, huge and burly, wearing golden armor and holding thunder, perhaps, this golden armor giant is the race in your dream!"

"Right...... Right...... That's right...... Dressed in golden armor and thundering in his hands, he is exactly the race you are talking about......"

Ron's eyes lit up when he listened, "That'...... Did Master Herimus say what the name of that powerful race was?"

Everyone looked at Rose in unison.

"He did! The name of this race isβ€”" Rose hesitated and bit her lip.

"Titans!"
