The first moment they were teleported, Kael'thas and his party immediately realized that something was wrong with the situation! Because, they discovered that there was a gray sky between the sky and the earth, and the dark clouds in the sky blocked the afternoon sun. above. There is also a big...mushroom that has not dispersed yet? Looking around, wherever you look, you can see everything in the sky, and the air is filled with suspended smoke and dust...
"This, this is impossible! How is it possible? It shouldn't be like this... Who can tell me what exactly happened here! Where is Silvermoon City in the Kingdom of Quel'Thalas? Where is our Eversong Forest? Why did it become like this?"
On a mountain top not far from the original site of Silver Moon City, this was originally an external teleportation circle outside Silver Moon City. Under normal circumstances, this place is guarded by several stationed mages, double the number of elite guards, and a small number of rangers. Only people who are allowed, or have permission, can teleport here! This is like Prince Kael'thas, he definitely has this authority!
Kael'thas and several of his followers had just used Dalaran's teleportation circle to teleport back to this location. Originally, they thought that when they came out, they would be warmly welcomed by the mages and guards stationed here. After all, their respected Prince Kael'thas had not been back to Quel'Thalas for many years.
But, what now? It's completely different from what they imagined! Now, not only are there no mages, Silver Moon guards or rangers stationed here, but even the teleportation platform, which was originally paved with tough marble slabs, has become unrecognizable! They have all disappeared, including a beautiful red-roofed wooden elf-style cottage next to it!
The smooth floor that was originally engraved with the magic circle has now turned into a pile of broken and charred rubble, and even the shadow of the beautiful cabin has disappeared! There, there were only a few charred wooden piles buried deep in the soil, with little smoke coming out...
At this moment, it should be a sunny afternoon. Under the rays of the sun, the golden oak trees begin to reflect the golden light, complementing the beautiful city. It is the time for the high elves to drink leisurely afternoon tea!
However, the sky here is now gray, and what is scattered in the air is mist-like floating dust. They smell like a disgusting smell like rusty metal, which is simply disgusting!
Prince Kael'thas even felt the residual radiation energy from the air. He didn't know why it was like this! Where did these radioactive dust come from? What's going on with that huge mushroom cloud in the sky that hasn't dispersed yet?
The most important thing is: who can tell him about Prince Kael'thas! Where is his grand, beautiful and luxurious magic city, the Silvermoon City of the High Elves, now? Under this teleportation array platform, why is there only a pile of broken eaves and broken walls where Silver Moon City was originally located? What's going on with that big pit in the middle of the city? Could it be that a big meteorite fell from the sky?
If Kael'thas hadn't been able to judge by comparing the surrounding terrain that was burned beyond recognition that this was indeed their Silvermoon City, he would have almost thought that he had teleported to the wrong place!
"Why is this happening... In just a few days, what happened here in Quel'Thalas? Where are the others? Where are my father and the others?"
Kael'thas seemed to have received a huge blow, and he collapsed on the ground all of a sudden, lowering his head and murmuring, letting his beautiful blond hair hang down to the dirty ground. Now, his lips were trembling a little.
Just a few days ago, he had contacted his father in the palace of Silvermoon City. In the magic communication, they chatted with each other about some interesting things that happened in Dalaran and Silvermoon City. Prince Kael'thas While joking at the time, they reported on the great changes that had taken place in the Kingdom of Lordaeron. At that time, their father and son lamented and gloated many times. They also laughed at the stupid Menethil royal family in the communication for taking the powerful Lordaeron. The Kingdom of Danlun was destroyed overnight...
But now, look, retribution is coming! When Kael'thas came back today, he saw that their Quel'Thalas was just like the Kingdom of Lordaeron. It was gone in just a few days? Could it be that the prophet Jaina met really told her right? Is the Eastern Continent destined to be a dead world?
No one paid any attention to Prince Kael'thas who was lying on the ground. The several followers next to him were all looking uglier than the last! They were looking around in confusion and confusion, and they didn't know why Silver Moon City had become like this!
Their home and their relatives are all in Silver Moon City, but what about now? The entire Silver Moon City was gone, and the surrounding area was burned to the ground! Not only the city, but also the tall and beautiful golden oak trees in Yonge Forest were burned down! Looking at the past now, it is all a scorched earth...
"Who is over there? Who is it! Undead? Or elf?"
When Kael'thas and his followers were in a state of panic and helplessness, almost bursting into tears, in the distance, on the dusty hillside, a burst of shouting and questioning suddenly sounded, and then, several feather arrows came from The arrows shot from below and directly hit the ground in front of several people. If they dared not to answer, the next round of arrows would probably be aimed at their bodies!
"I am Kael'thas! Kael'thas? Sunstrider! Who are you?"
After hearing someone questioning him and others in the familiar and friendly Salas language in the distance, Kael'thas quickly stood up and answered loudly.
Since the other party was speaking the language of the high elves and shooting the special arrows of the high elf rangers, he must be one of his own. He was eager to find an elf who knew about it. He, Kael'thas, wanted to know immediately. What is happening here in Silvermoon City and in the Kingdom of Quel'Thalas? !
"His Royal Highness Prince Kael'thas?"
After hearing the reply, a group of about ten high elves slowly approached the teleportation platform above from the dust and fog in the sky. Each of them was wearing goggles and covered with thick numbness. Mouth and nose.
Today, after the big explosion, high-level mage Ferendre took the initiative to ask Ying to follow a group of ten rangers to Silvermoon City to investigate the situation.
As a high-level mage, Ferendre knows very well what an explosion of this magnitude means! After learning that the explosion was caused by a special bomb thrown by Master Annie, he realized that it was probably some kind of new magic weapon!
Therefore, as a mage, of course he must find an opportunity to come here as soon as possible to study it carefully! Besides, after this big explosion, he didn't think that there could be any undead here that could threaten them, and they were just reconnaissance. If they really encountered a large group of undead, they would just run away! There won't be any danger anyway!
At that time, after they received the order from the ranger lord Lor'themar, when the explosion slowly subsided, more than 20 of them divided into two groups and set off. One of the groups was responsible for detecting the movements of the undead in the south of Yongsong Forest, while Fei Lundre's group is responsible for investigating the vicinity of Silver Moon City.
When they got closer, after a simple investigation, it turned out that everything was just as Philendre had guessed. There were no undead alive in a large area inside and outside Silver Moon City! They must have all been destroyed by the big explosion in Silver Moon City. The hundreds of thousands of undead that were still so powerful in the morning have now turned into nothing! There is simply no better news than this for the high elves!
While the rangers dispersed for investigation, Philendre also took the opportunity to analyze and sample some of the nearby soil and dust in the air. After a period of simple research, he soon discovered that these floating and sinking materials actually contained strong radioactive energy. Could it be that those powerful weapons were made of radioactive magic materials? Therefore, when he was temporarily unclear, he quickly asked them to cover their faces with linen and wear goggles to prevent further damage from the radiation dust.
After observing the situation in the ruins of Silvermoon City from the outside, Philendre did not dare to lead the rangers and walk in rashly. He is a high-level elf mage. Inside Silvermoon City, especially near the big pit , it is still emitting high temperature and deadly radiation, he will not be stupid enough to lead a team in to seek death!
Therefore, after confirming that the undead were basically wiped out, he planned to lead the team directly back to Darthweiser Bay. After all, the radiation in the periphery was still quite powerful, and there was no need to stay here any longer.
But he never thought that when they passed the path under an original teleportation circle outside the city, Philendre suddenly discovered that there was a wave of teleportation coming from the magic circle that should have been blown up. So, He quickly took the rangers and quietly touched it to find out...
"It's really His Highness the Prince! Great! It's really you!"
Ferendre, who was cautiously approaching slowly, finally shouted happily after seeing the wool and clothing of several people on the ruins of the teleportation circle! Very good! His Royal Highness Prince Kael'thas of the Kingdom of Quel'Thalas is back!
"Your Highness! It's me! I am the high-level mage Ferendre! You are finally back!" Ferendre sobbed, pulling off the linen and goggles from his face, and rushed directly to Kael'thas In front of him, he made a half-kneeling salute.
"Felendre? Okay! No need to be polite! Get up! Now, please tell me! What exactly happened here?" This is what Kael'thas desperately wants to know! As for Philendre? He couldn't even remember such a person, and he had long forgotten his name!
"Your Highness, we have to start with the invasion of the undead. It's a long story, and I won't be able to explain it clearly for a while. Let's hurry back to Darthweiser Bay. Our people are all there now. Lord Sylvanas will tell you everything you need to know..."
After putting on his goggles and covering his mouth and nose with linen again, Philendre planned to send His Highness the Prince and others to represent this terrible place!
Now Ferendre is completely convinced by Sylvanas. If she hadn't forcibly ordered all citizens to prepare for evacuation as soon as she came back yesterday, he wouldn't dare to imagine whether he could still escape from the fangs of the undead. The 200,000 tribesmen who escaped from the sharp claws?
"Sylvanas? Isn't she a ranger general? When did she become a duke? How is this possible?" While Kael'thas was sad, he suddenly felt that what happened in Quel'Thalas during this period of time, It was definitely beyond his imagination!
"Your Highness! Let's leave here first and go back. You must have discovered that the dust in the air here contains very lethal energy radiation. If you inhale a large amount, I'm afraid it will be troublesome! After all, we have too many wounded people now. The priests are almost overwhelmed, and it would be very troublesome to treat radiation damage without the help of priests!"

Because it needs to be divided into volumes, I will cut one chapter into two chapters today. There will be more in a moment.
