To the south of the King's City of Lordaeron, Dalaran, the magical capital of mankind, here, the siege battle of the Undead Scourge is in full swing. The battle has been going on for nearly half a day.
Whether it was the Dalaran defenders or the Undead Scourge, the losses on both sides were relatively high. But in general, humans and high elves have the advantage as the defensive side, and the casualties are relatively small. However, they can't stand up to the undead natural disasters, their style of play is so shameless!
Those undead scourges, in addition to dividing into multiple batches and continuously sending out elite troops to try to raid and destroy magic nodes, also used siege meat grinders to continuously smash all kinds of weapons into Dalaran from a distance. After the plague corpses and those disgusting things exploded in the city, they have turned a large area green. Both civilians and defenders have suffered considerable losses.
Although the mages of Dalaran took action in time, taking advantage of the super long attack range of the mage tower and using various magics to burn or blow up most of the meat grinding carts one by one, the undead immediately replaced them with another one. A tactic: They use gargoyles to grab plague barrels of different sizes, and then smash them into the city from high altitude!
Before the mages could be distracted to shoot them down one by one, the third wave of elite undead troops, also divided into three batches, rushed in against the magic barrier. Their purpose was also very clear, which was to go straight to the magic node. of!
Suddenly, the defensive human and high elf armies were overwhelmed by the human sea tactics of the undead. They were attacked again and again, leaving them no time to rest. For a while, they were faintly threatened by the undead natural disaster. The trend to break the city…
The army of undead natural disasters is still attacking regardless of casualties. Every moment, humans or high elves die, and at the same time, more undead souls are turned into a pile of useless bones or burned corpses. The war has reached this point, and there is no reason to explain it. , it depends on both sides, who can't stand it first!
…
"Firestorm!"
When he saw that the magic node closest to the city gate was in danger of being attacked by three to five thousand undead, Prince Kael'thas of the high elf promptly released a large-scale fire magic, destroying the undead below and the surrounding buildings. Circled in.
A huge red magic array lit up under the area where the undead were densest, and then, in the next moment, scorching high-temperature flames spurted out from the ground, encompassing all the undead and surrounding buildings. Soon, under the magic The undead and those houses in the area were all burned to ashes by the high-temperature flames, and those who were lucky enough to be left were easily killed by the defenders of the defensive magic node...
"Your Excellency, Archmage, I'm really sorry. My attack this time may have caused a lot of accidental injuries."
After seeing that the undead below were quickly wiped out, Kael'thas finally breathed a sigh of relief. At the same time, he did not forget to explain to Antonidas next to him.
After all, his indiscriminate range-of-range fire magic attack just now burned down a small area of the block. He himself didn't know whether there were civilians in Dalaran in those houses.
"Sigh... The battle has been going on so far, and there are no accidental injuries. It's enough to be able to defend Dalaran. However, I always feel that the undead's fighting style is a bit strange. This time, they are already in the third wave. Attacked, right?"
There may still be people in the house below, but most of the citizens of Dalaran have fled to the underground shelters he planned. Those who are still at home are probably only a few. These are unacceptable What was avoided was not a problem that Antonidas needed to worry about.
Now, what puzzles the Archmage the most is: Why do the undead continue to attack after seeing that this style of play is not very effective?
After these three waves of attacks, the Scourge Legion had lost at least about 70,000 to 80,000 troops, right? Although humans and high elves also suffered heavy losses, and the casualty rate was estimated to be about ten percent, they were still much better than the undead! After all, their side has a defensive advantage.
"Yes... it's a bit strange. You should have seen it, right? They are already preparing for the fourth wave of attacks. If they continue like this, their undead will definitely be the ones who die first! What are they thinking? What? What’s the conspiracy?”
In the distance, outside Dalaran's magic protective barrier, after the third wave of attacking undead army was wiped out, the undead army divided into nearly 30,000 death armies again. This time they were also divided into three groups. It seems that they still have no intention of giving up and want to continue to attack those three magic nodes.
Kael'thas was also puzzled by this, and he didn't know what the death knight Arthas standing on the high place in the distance was thinking about!
Not long after the battle began, Prince Kael'thas tried to bombard the executioner on horseback with ultra-long-range magic. Unfortunately, his magic was easily blocked by Kel'Thuzad next to him. Since then, Kyle has not tried to attack them again, because he knows that it is just a waste of his magic power.
…
"His Majesty the King of Arthas, Lord Kel'Thuzad, the fourth wave of troops is ready. Do we still want to continue attacking like this?"
A black-robed wizard from the Cult of the Cursed God flashed in front of Kel'Thuzad and Alsace, who was riding a horse and wearing a helmet and saying nothing. He bowed his head and reported carefully.
"If you are ready, then continue the attack! Remember, let the siege meat grinder and the gargoyle coordinate the attack to distract the enemy's mage tower. That's it."
Without waiting for the reaction of Alsace, who was riding on the death horse next to him, the great lich Kel'Thuzad rushed to give the order. His actions made the wizard of the cursed sect very puzzled. He didn't know why. This Alsace King Si seemed to be silent all the time, allowing the lich next to him to overstep his authority and issue orders for him.
"But... we have already suffered a lot of casualties. Whether it is elite troops or meat grinders, there are not many gargoyles and plague corpses left... Your Majesty, should we postpone the attack?"
He hoped to hear different orders from Arthas to stop the great lich Kel'Thuzad from attacking blindly. If he continued to use this kind of fueling tactics a few more times, the forty people they had managed to put together would be The army of tens of thousands of undead will definitely be defeated again!
After all, the opponent has a magic barrier and a large number of mage towers to assist in defense. The only ones who can withstand the barrier and attack forcefully are the elite undead!
And once those elite undead are dead, what's the use of the remaining skeletons and zombies? Things like these don't even need to be attacked by the defenders when they enter the barrier. If they can't walk more than a few steps, they will probably fall apart and turn into a pile of withered bones again!
"Shut up! Now, follow my orders immediately! If there are no plague corpses, throw away plague buckets or corpses. If the meat grinder is destroyed, continue to rebuild it! I still need to remind you how to do such a small thing. Or... let me turn you into a ghoul now to participate in the attack? "
Kel'Thuzad did not give the wizard a chance to continue speaking, and looked down at him coldly. If he dared to refuse his orders again, the fate waiting for him would be to be turned into a brainless ghoul, and then follow the group of Let the undead become cannon fodder together!
"As you command...my lord!"
snort! What idiots!
Kel'Thuzad looked disdainfully at the black-robed wizards who were walking away. Do these idiots think they don't know that this tactic is ineffective against Dalaran? Do they really think that they are also stupid?
If Kel'Thuzad didn't continue to put pressure on the opponent, forcing the defenders to struggle to deal with it, how could he cover King Arthas' actions? If Alsace's operation fails, it will really be a disaster for the Undead Scourge!
However, this is fine, now that my plan has been hidden even from myself, then the other party must not be able to guess it, right? It doesn't take long, they just need to hide the other party temporarily, and wait until Arthas successfully grabs the book. It doesn't matter whether Dalaran can be attacked or not. Anyway, the matter of attacking Dalaran is not theirs. within the plan.
Hehehe...
…
The fourth wave of attacks from the undead scourges came up again, and this time the attack seemed to be more violent. Not only were there 30,000 to 40,000 undead participating in the attack, but there were also countless siege meat grinders and gargoyles throwing plague barrels, nano-green The poisonous plague has spread over half of the city. If this continues, it is really possible for those undead to capture Dalaran!
"No! Your Majesty the Archmage! The death knight Arthas led an undead team out of the sewers and broke through the defense of the Dalaran treasure house. They just stole a treasure!"
While Antonidas and Kael'thas were observing the enemy's situation and preparing to defend against the fourth wave of enemy attacks, a mage hurriedly flew to the platform of the mage tower and reported loudly?
"What? Arthas? Isn't he still outside?"
Antonidas was stunned and quickly turned his head. In the distance, outside the magic barrier of Dalaran, the death knight and the lich Kel'Thuzad were standing there peacefully. They were still urging the undead to attack. Why? Will another Arthas breach the Dalaran Vault? What's the matter?
"No! Could it be that... the one outside is fake?"
Kael'thas suddenly remembered something, and regardless of the consumption of his own magic power, he used an ultra-long-distance explosive fire technique. The huge fireball was fiercely directed at the unmoving "Al" who was riding a horse in the distance. SARS" roared and attacked.
"Haha, stupid Anthony and Kyle..."
Boom boom….
After Kel'Thuzad saw the magic coming again, he did not waste his magic power to open a shield to defend himself. Instead, he cast a teleportation spell and left, leaving the "Alsace" disguised as a zombie next to him to be blasted by a fire spell. Devoured and burned to ashes.
Now that he, Kel'Thuzad, has got what he wants, and the real King of Arthas has been teleported back, he will not continue to waste time here with them. Now, he has to do something more important. Something happened! Let those elves and humans stay in Dalaran.
"It's true! That Alsace who has been staying outside is a fake!"
Kael'thas screamed in surprise. No wonder he always felt that something was wrong with the two people outside.
From the beginning of the battle to the present, the death knight Arthas has not said a word from beginning to end, and he has not even used threats and intimidation to undermine the morale of the defenders! So this is ah……
However, they wasted so much of the undead army just to steal one thing. Isn't it a bit of a waste of money? Is there anything worth more than 100,000 yuan for an elite undead army?
Looking at the fourth wave of the undead army below that was once again annihilated by the defenders, Kael'thas also felt puzzled by their methods of undead disaster!
"Speak quickly! What things did they steal? Have you found out everything?"
Compared to Kael'thas' confusion and doubts, Antonidas asked anxiously. He had a very bad feeling in his heart. If something goes wrong, something big will happen this time! Could it be a simple thing that could be remembered by the undead, remembered by Kel'Thuzad, and stolen even at the expense of a large number of troops?
It is impossible for those cunning and treacherous undead people to do such a thing for no reason! Seeing that the other party wanted to steal it even at the cost of losing a large number of troops, there was no doubt that they must have something up their sleeve! And it must be a big plot! The Archmage was now beginning to panic, and the uneasy premonition was getting stronger and stronger.
"Uh... they seem to have stolen something..."
In this regard, the mage also found it strange that Alsace only led a small team and ventured into the Dalaran treasure house in a risky raid. He did not take any treasures or artifacts, but only grabbed a book and then used teleportation. The method of letting magic run away...he said he couldn't understand it either!
"what exactly is it?"
The uneasiness in Antonidas's heart became even stronger. Could it be that the one thing that the undead would snatch away at all costs was...
"It seems to be a magic book called... the Book of Medivh?"
It’s over, it’s over! Antonidas's face turned pale, and suddenly his vision went dark, and he almost fainted!
It is indeed this thing! The thing that makes the undead want to get it at all costs is indeed this book! Who do they want to summon? What exactly is Kel'Thuzad up to?
"Your Excellency, Archmage, what is the use of the Book of Medivh? Why does your face suddenly become so ugly?"
Kael'thas didn't know much about the Book of Medivh. He only knew that the book was brought from Karazhan by Dalaran after Medivh died. Anyone except Antonidas No one is allowed to look at it, including Kael'thas himself, who also holds an outstanding position in Kentorri!
"That is... the last guardian, the only magic book left by Medivh. In it, there are his lost spells..."
Antonidas said solemnly, and he looked outside the city. The undead had already begun to retreat, and they had also put up a defensive posture on the favorable terrain. It seemed that after their purpose was achieved, , it is true that we are not ready to continue to attack the city, but we have to prevent the defenders inside Dalaran from rushing out...
"Why are you so nervous if it's just a book like this?"
No matter how powerful the spell is, it shouldn't make the Archmage so nervous, right? So, is there any secret content in the Book of Medivh that I don't know about? Kael'thas was puzzled by this!
"They've all been stolen anyway, so it's okay to tell you now. Because... what's recorded in that book is the forbidden knowledge about summoning demons... I guess, he, Kel'Thuzad, will be here soon. The great demon is summoned to come to the world of Azeroth!"
"Big Devil? Is it... the Burning Legion?!"
This is going to be big trouble!
Kael'thas suddenly remembered what was recorded in the history books of their high elves. It is said that it was a war ten thousand years ago. At that time, it was because of the summoning of a great demon named Sargeras, and then, what followed The Burning Legion caused the High Elf Empire 10,000 years ago to completely fall apart!
It was precisely because magic attracted demons that soon after the ancient war, the high elves who focused on magic were expelled by those damn night elves and had to cross the sea to Quel'Thalas on the eastern continent... …
"His Royal Highness Prince Kael'thas, I'm afraid, we have to be prepared now... If Kel'Thuzad really uses the Book of Medivh to summon the great demon, then we must go out of the city to stop him!"
Sighing deeply, Antonidas held on to the guardrail tightly and looked at the more than 300,000 undead army in a prepared posture in the distance. At this moment, the Archmage felt despair for the first time.
Kel'Thuzad made it clear that he wanted to summon the great demon under the protection of the undead army. What could he do to stop him? Just rely on the mage troops in the city and less than 20,000 high elves left? With their strength, they can barely defend themselves, but once they leave the city and escape the assistance of the barrier and the mage tower, it's probably no different than going to die, right?
