——A few days later
"What? The troll ran onto the road and robbed a caravan going to Stratholme?"
Arthas was a little surprised when he heard the news. Generally speaking, few trolls can cross the mountains between East Wilder and Quel'Thalas, even if they have strongholds in the mountains on the border of East Wilder. , but they are often not big, let alone dare to rob caravans in groups on the continent patrolled by guards.
This abnormality made Arthas think for a moment. He asked the official who came to report, "Have there been any abnormalities at the border of Quel'Thalas recently?"
The official nodded, "According to the monitoring of our border mages, the Bandi Norel Barrier in Quel'Thalas underwent a large-scale structural change about a week ago."
"Is this common?" Although he also studied in Dalaran for a period of time, Arthas could only have a vague knowledge of magic theory.
"It's not very common, but due to the special characteristics of Bandinorel, its structure and magic flow will change every once in a while. According to the research of our enchantment theory experts, it should be to avoid the magic of the Sunwell. Escape, Bandinorel changes every few years or decades in response to the changing tides of magic.”
The official continued to explain, "So at first our border forces just thought this was a rare change like before, but in connection with the recent troll activities that have become rampant, the mages began to wonder if it was someone from Bandinorel. There was a loophole in this place, which caused the trolls to discover the flaw and start to act collectively. You know, the trolls and the elves have a long-standing grudge. If it is to start a war, and there is really a problem with the barrier, then now it is time to collect Supplies are ready for the best chance of attacking.”
According to this explanation, it makes sense that troll activities have become more frequent, but Bandine Norel has stabilized the borders of Quel'Thalas for thousands of years. Even the orc invasion was only opened by cooperating inside and outside to steal the rune stones. gap, what happened to cause this barrier to become abnormal...
No matter what happened, it was definitely not a small problem.
Thinking of this, Arthas immediately issued an order, "Mobilize the scout troops of East Wilder to find out the movements of the trolls, and ask the diplomats to contact Quel'Thalas immediately to find out what the cause is. In addition, assign Both battalions are paying attention to road safety in East Weald and stepping up daily patrols."
After the officials left, Arthas pondered, tapping his knuckles on the table regularly. After a while, he summoned Frostmourne, carved a few runes in the room, held up the barrier, and took it out of his arms. A strange-looking crystal emerged.
Dark green violent energy surged in the crystal, but Arthas didn't care about it. He directly mobilized his power and prepared to contact the existence on the other side of the star realm.
"..."
"I know you can hear me, Illidan Stormrage, no need to pretend to me." Arthas said coldly. Although Illidan's original intention of doing things is for Azeroth, his philosophy is really unacceptable. Agree.
"Haha... I'm just curious why you are contacting me at this time." Illidan chuckled softly, "Have you enjoyed the war game, young king?"
"How is your plan going? Have you got the keystone?" Arthas ignored Illidan's provocation and asked the key point.
"Sure enough, you know a lot of things. It seems that the fallen Lich King also has a lot of secrets in his mind."
At the top of the Dark Temple, Illidan held the Orb of Fel Energy Communication and let out bursts of hoarse and low laughter, "Very good, I just like to see the legion's misfortune. Deceivers and those loach-like fear demons also have miscalculations one day." .”
"No one wants to know your preferences. Let me ask you, what did you do last time you went to the Sunwell?"
"Sunwell? Haha, I just took away a bunch of frustrated high elves, and then left a way for those guys who are still attached to some ridiculous things." Illidan did not intend to answer Arthas directly, "That's right. You, when are you going to do that?”
"The Frozen Throne is waiting for the arrival of you, the traitor, at any time." Arthas left a word and hung up the contact.
Illidan looked at the unresponsive communication orb in his hand, and couldn't help laughing. That guy Kil'jaeden, who was known as a fraudster, had no idea that the secret agent he sent to Azeroth had long been captured. People have been uprooted, and even those fear devils are probably in danger now.
Arthas is a monster, there is no doubt about it, because Illidan knows that a mortal cannot easily escape from the Legion's tricks and control, and he even counterattacked immediately, seizing everything from the undead monarch, occupying the magpie's nest, Now even Kil'jaeden just thought that Ner'zhul wanted to break away from his mercy and establish his own business.
Although Illidan is still under Kil'jaeden's surveillance, he has no choice but to use his own forces to deal with the encirclement and suppression of the Alliance expeditionary force, and he also learned from his subordinates that a ruthless night elf warden is tracking him down. 's whereabouts.
But these are not important anymore. As long as he goes to play a scene with Arthas and gets the key stone, it doesn't matter if the Dark Temple is handed over to the group of exiles. After all, his purpose is not to survive in this broken world. The world becomes a demon lord.
Fortunately, Kil'jaeden focused most of his attention on how to come to Azeroth and punish Ner'zhul, the traitor. He had not noticed Illidan's little actions. For this, Illidan really wanted to thank him. Dath'Remar, if he hadn't created the Sunwell, failed to learn his lesson at all, and repeated the mistakes of the Highborne, Kil'jaeden would not have been so easily attracted.
A few days ago, he realized that his backup plan in Quel'Thalas had been activated. That power-hungry lunatic might bring disaster to that extremely proud kingdom, but that had nothing to do with him anymore. , after all, although it was the method he left behind, the person being summoned and prayed for was not him.
Illidan's laughter echoed in the temple of the Dark Temple. In the dark corner of the temple, a rickety figure heard this chilling laughter and clenched the scythe in his hand.
Arthas had a gloomy look on his face when he hung up the communication. He had known that he would work with Illidan, and sooner or later he would sell him directly to the Burning Legion to show his loyalty. However, there was one thing that he and Illidan agreed on, that is, the Burning Legion was unlucky. He is happy.
But he couldn't accept Illidan's extreme method of obtaining benefits by any means necessary. At least he couldn't watch Quel'Thalas repeat the mistakes of the upper elves.
Now he can be 100% sure that the changes in Bandi Norel are by no means routine changes. It must be the guy who got Illidan's legacy and made a shocking noise in Quel'Thalas.
"Kael'thas, you'd better pray that things haven't reached the point of no return."
Arthas unfolded an ancient strategic map, which had been a witness to the ancient Arathor Empire and Quel'Thalas' alliance against the trolls. Unexpectedly, it would be useful again today.
