Archimonde wants to absorb the power of the World Tree and the Well of Eternity so that he can reach a higher level. After reaching the level of Archimonde, it is already difficult to rely on normal methods.
Tens of thousands of years ago, when the Eredar joined the Burning Legion and accepted the baptism of evil energy from Sargeras, it actually enhanced Archimonde's peak strength, allowing him to explore and move forward at a new level. .
But tens of thousands of years have passed, and Archimonde has already reached the end of this road, but he is never satisfied. He believes that since Sargeras has a way to make himself one step further when the bottleneck is reached, then there should still be existence in this world. What can help you break through the shackles of your current situation?
As someone who has witnessed the power of Sargeras with his own eyes, Archimonde is even more obsessed with improving his strength and increasing his power. Although he has been able to destroy all living things on a planet alone, he still yearns for a higher level of power. Yearning for the power that Sargeras possesses that "cannot be understood by mortals".
This is the reason why he is so eager to level Mount Hyjal. Archimonde's real goal is to extract the power of the second Well of Eternity in order to achieve his goal - to obtain a weapon comparable to Sargeras. Strength, go one step further.
Like breaking glass, Archimonde shattered the magic door used to protect the World Tree. The violent evil magic caused the magic network in the entire area to tremble.
While the mortals were shocked by Archimonde's power, Arthas quietly turned his attention to the Frozen Throne.
The Lich King's abilities can be greatly increased on the Frozen Throne. Arthas had a very bold idea and wanted to use it to realize it. This is why he insisted on staying in Mount Hyjal.
If there is a gap between Archimonde and Archimonde in terms of pure strength...then it is just the collision between the soul and the realm of death. It is not that Arthas did not secretly give Archimonde a chance.
The energy explosion caused by the ancient soul summoned by Malfurion can only destroy Archimonde's material body in this world, but cannot cause any substantial damage to Archimonde's soul in a real sense.
But Archimonde, who has lost his body, will undoubtedly lose a large part of his strength. In this case, Arthas has the opportunity to try to do something, so that the time when the Legion can attack Azeroth will be postponed. procrastination.
The Burning Legion's own aggressiveness will also weaken after losing its coach. Compared with conquering Azeroth, Kil'jaeden is now obviously more interested in hunting down his old friends who fell in love and killed each other, otherwise he would not always be able to conquer Azeroth. It is to leave the task of conquering Azeroth to the orcs and the Lich King.
Archimonde only took over the post of commander-in-chief of the legion again after Kil'jaeden repeatedly delayed the work. Compared to Archimonde, a hard-working and dedicated model worker, Kil'jaeden was really an old fisherman. .
After Arthas used the Frozen Throne to amplify his soul's power, his power could cross oceans and mountains and land precisely on the summit of Mount Hyjal. Nordrassil's radiant soul allowed him to easily get into position.
Suddenly, waves of violent tremors came. The mortal heroes stabilized their bodies and looked at Archimonde who was "climbing" the World Tree.
That's right, it's climbing. Archimonde's huge body is attached to the trunk of the World Tree, and he climbs to the top of Nordrassil on his hands and feet. His power spreads through the trunk of Nordrassil. The roots of Nordrassil sunk deep into the mountains, making the entire Mount Hyjal seem to be trembling.
The most primitive, pure and most violent power!
The energy of the World Tree and the Well of Eternity was also being plundered by Archimonde at the same time. Every time he went up the trunk, the power in his body increased by one point, and his size became larger, until he reached Mount Hyjal. The devil's giant-like figure can be seen anywhere.
However, what this god brought to Mount Hyjal was absolute destruction and disaster. Nordrassil was suffering under the torture of Archimonde. Its life and energy were constantly consumed by Archimonde using evil spells. Nordrassil, which has been on this land for thousands of years, is rapidly withering due to the depletion of the earth.
The heroes were quite nervous. They learned the general plan of the night elves from Arthas, but now they have not taken any action, and Archimonde has officially begun to absorb the energy of Nordrassil and the Well of Eternity. .
"Woo————"
The long and ethereal horn sound floated in the wind from the sky of Mount Hyjal. This horn sound seemed to express the desolation and sorrow soaked by time. It was the true music of the Kaldorei civilization that never faded.
Archimonde focused on seizing the huge energy in front of him and didn't pay attention to the sound of the horn that came into his ears. However, he realized that the horn was summoning something, but when he looked at the soles of his feet, he found that the night elf had finally The resistance turned out to be some fragile elves?
"Ridiculous trick."
Archimonde had no idea what the night elves were doing, but he couldn't feel any danger from these non-aggressive elves. These souls seemed to simply gather at the soles of his feet.
The eredar wizard shot out chaotic death rays from his fingertips, completely annihilating these useless elves into nothingness. The destructive energy could easily plow a ravine on the ground.
He enjoyed this process very much, even if it was meaningless, but after absorbing the power of Nordrassil and the Well of Eternity, he could clearly feel the growth of his power, and the power of the endless dark spells he mastered also increased with it. Enhancement, which excites Archimonde far more than killing these fragile souls.
However, gradually, Archimonde smelled something amiss - the elves gathered at his feet fearlessly, refusing to dodge in the face of his attacks. The gathering speed of these souls was getting faster and faster, and even Exceeding his killing speed.
At first Archimonde didn't seem to care, until the first elf exploded at his feet like a bubble.
Snapped!
A soft sound did not cause any harm to Archimonde, but Archimonde could no longer laugh. Elves have a deep connection with nature, and in Mount Hyjal, Nordrassil is almost Representing nature itself, it is the collection of the entire ecological environment of Mount Hyjal.
The self-destruction of an elf did not harm Archimonde, but it made the powerful Eredar find that his magic power boiled a little.
Such subtle changes were almost impossible to detect. Archimonde's profound knowledge and experience allowed him to understand the night elves' intentions almost instantly.
"No! This is impossible! You despicable souls, stay away from me!"
The arrogant Demon King was actually frightened by some elves who were not afraid of even timid animals. He took half a step back. He frantically released all the spells he could think of, trying to reduce the number of elves.
But the elves not only gathered quickly, they were also extremely decisive when they exploded. Almost before Archimonde's spell killed more elves, they were like a bunch of burst bubbles in Archimonde. The side of his body exploded.
Archimonde was horrified to find that the natural energy and arcane energy that he was extracting and turning into his own power were sweeping towards him like boiling magma, roaring and swallowing him.
