In the past few days as the Burning Legion broke through the Winterspring Valley defense line and continued its march toward Mount Hyjal, Sarlayan urgently revised his plan and coordinated with all parties, and he was always busy.
Even Onyxia, who had always been lazy, was captured. While Valeera was busy arranging the manpower of the Backlight Blade to monitor the Burning Legion, the Black Dragon Princess and Little Star accompanied Sarlayan to help.
After a few days of busy work, the mess caused by Archimonde's personal action in advance was finally sorted out.
During this time, the Kalimdor tauren chief Cairn Bloodhoof and Archdruin Hamuul Runetotem also rushed over from Mulgore with the second wave of tauren reinforcements.
Kane and Ulan had a brief meeting on the mountainside defense line. There was no time for them to slowly reminisce about old times.
After making an appointment to talk after the war, both of them focused all their energy on training.
Jarod was not familiar with the invading alien race like the orcs, and did not intend to dictate their command and dispatch.
With Jarod's personal help, the cooperation of the coalition forces in the Mid-mountain camp increased rapidly, and the newly arrived Darkspear trolls and tauren gradually integrated into the coalition's defense system.
Sharlayan was so busy that Jarod was no better.
He runs back and forth between the mountainside and the top of the mountain every day. Not only does he need to worry about the training of the coalition forces at the mountain camp, he also needs to find ways to make rational use of the dragon army that just arrived not long ago.
As Shandris, who led the sentry troops in guerrilla harassment along the Winterspring Valley to delay, retreated to Mount Hyjal, the orc scouts in the base camp finally saw the vanguard of the Burning Legion from the towering sentry tower.
The decisive battle is about to begin. As long as the demons, who have been somewhat scattered due to the rapid march, rearrange their attack formations, the final battle surrounding Nordrassil will officially begin.
After arranging the tasks he needed to be responsible for, Sharlayan remembered the good news Stellagosa had mentioned before under Jaina's urging from Northrend.
Although the full picture has not yet been seen, since even Jaina is aware of this matter, it means that it should be related to the changes in the situation in Northrend.
"Tichondrius... was beaten to death by his mother?"
When he heard the news from Stellagosa, Sharlayan was stunned for a while, and Valeera and Onyxia also looked surprised.
After hearing the cause and effect, the three people who finally learned the truth had expressions of dumbfounding on their faces.
Onyxia spread her hands and complained: "What is this? Throw yourself into a trap? That guy Tichondrius came here just to make fun of you, right?"
Valeela smiled and shook her head: "You can't say that. This is the inevitable result of the intelligence gap that Sarlayan often said. One wrong step leads to the next wrong step."
"Indeed." Sarlayan rubbed his chin with interest and said, "In the final analysis, Tichondrius made the wrong decision because he failed to know Kel'Thuzad's position and Scar-Eye's true identity in advance. .”
"Anyway, it is very beneficial for us to knock out Tichondrius early."
There was a look of thought in Sarlayan's eyes: "Tichondrius and we thought of going together. I originally planned to ask Kel'Thuzad to send Solas and the elite escorting him into Icecrown Citadel through a secret escape passage, directly to Nether. In front of Aozu."
"Since the Dread Lord also has this intention... we might as well take advantage of it."
"Stella, contact Jaina immediately and ask her to notify the escort team to prepare. The time to seize control of the Scourge is coming soon."
Stellagosa: "Okay, are there any more?"
"have."
Sarlayan continued: "Help me send a message to Kel'Thuzad, asking him to find a way to hide the news of Tichondrius's death, pretend to have negotiated the rebellion, establish contact with the Dread Lords, and secretly escape Disclose relevant information about the channel to them.”
"Ha~" Onyxia, who is best at conspiracy, chuckled knowingly: "You plan to let the Dread Lord help us take the lead, and then let Solas show up to pick peaches when both sides are defeated?"
Sarlayan: "Since they intend to use the escape passage to attack and behead them, let them go first, which can reduce our losses."
…
"Hiss~"
Kel'Thuzad, who was still waiting for news in Stratholme City, received a contact from Sharlayan. After reading the full text of the letter, he subconsciously took a breath as he no longer needed to breathe.
"Ha~ Fortunately, I didn't choose to go against Sarlayan."
He casually handed the letter to Baron Rivendell for review, and Kel'Thuzad said with some emotion: "Being an enemy of that guy with eight hundred minds, a few life boxes are not enough."
After reading the plan, the corners of Baron Rivendell's mouth twitched.
"Poor Dreadlords, if their raid plan succeeds, they will be knocked down from the clouds by Sharlayan at the most triumphant moment. This kind of emotional decline... It's scary to think about it."
Kel'Thuzad thoughtfully touched the smooth jade bone on his chin: "Is it acting to hide the death of Tichondrius and reveal the information about the escape channel to the Dread Lord... Let me think about how to make a comparison. safe."
At the same time, Yinas and Tinagosa, who had returned to Quel'Thalas, also learned of Sharlayan's latest plan.
Their task is to perform locally to prepare for the conflict with the Scourge of East Wilder. Yinasi feels a little regretful that she can no longer participate in the plan. The next performance can only be left to Vereesa and others who are far away in Northrend. .
After a period of assault training by Alonsos Faol, Thoras, who cooperated wholeheartedly, became completely familiar with this new undead body.
Once you are used to the living body in life, it will be more difficult to adapt to the undead body, and your movements will appear a little stiff.
With the help of the advanced preservatives provided by the alchemists of New Shandalar, Solas gradually reversed some of his past habits and began to feel that the body of the undead had many conveniences.
First of all, the undead feel no pain and do not bleed.
As long as the soul, which is the vital point of the undead creature, is not harmed, even if his hands and feet are broken in battle, Solas can maintain a certain level of combat effectiveness and will not be hindered by blood loss and pain.
Secondly, the undead, who are essentially driven by the soul, no longer need to be as they were in life. In order to avoid damaging the body, the brain subconsciously retains power when issuing instructions.
In other words, the undead's output in the extreme state will be stronger than in life, and have better explosive power.
Vereesa, who was sitting at the Iron Wall Dam, informed Sarlayan's latest instructions to Solas and Alonsus, who were still in retreat. The two people who had successfully completed their rehabilitation training just came out of seclusion and rushed as quickly as possible. Join the others at Iron Wall Dam.
Originally, the floating city of Dalaran planned to go to Kalimdor to participate in the decisive battle of Hyjal, but since Archimonde started taking action in advance, it was obviously too late to set off now.
In this case, after discussion, the Kirin Tor Council decided to stay and assist Solas in wresting control of the Scourge.
Jaina and Merry Winterwind each led a group of Dalaran mages and members of the Council of Tirisfal to teleport directly to Mount Hyjal to provide assistance to the coalition.
Ignoring the dissuasion of other councilors, Ronin decided to personally join the elite team escorting Solas, followed closely behind the Burning Legion who set off first, and sneaked into Icecrown Citadel to face the Lich King Ner'zhul.
At the same time, Kel'Thuzad handed over the command of the Scourge of the Eastern Kingdom to Baron Rivendell. He secretly set out from Stratholme and teleported to Northrend with the help of Quel'Thalas.
According to the plan, he will also follow Solas and Alonsus into Icecrown Citadel, and as the second-in-command of the Scourge, he will assist Solas in successfully taking over the undead army.
Unknown to most people, Yin Lidan, who received the support of Queen Azshara and Kil'jaeden's permission, successfully took out the Eye of Sargeras from the Tomb of Sargeras.
Under Sharlayan's multi-line deployment, Yin Lidan transferred to Azsuna, used a magic network node deliberately given up by the Nightborne to activate the Eye of Sargeras, and remotely targeted the ice in the deepest part of Icecrown Citadel. throne.
When the eyes of all parties were focused on Icecrown Citadel, Ner'zhul, as the person involved, was still unaware. He also focused on the frontal battlefield against the Burning Legion.
After Arthas unexpectedly killed two Dreadlords first, the situation on the battlefield began to shift towards the Scourge.
If the situation continues like this, the failure of the Dreadlord's plan is inevitable. Kel'Thuzad's timely contact just gave them a chance to make a comeback.
"ha……"
After arranging all matters through the letters sent by Stellagosa to various places, Sharlayan showed a rare fish-like posture, relaxing his body and leaning back into Onyxia's soft bosom.
"The preparations that need to be made have been made. Next, it depends on how the plan executors perform."
"So tired... Oni, let me lean on you for a while, I... Hu~hu~"
