When the Scourge's war machine is launched, the living will feel the ultimate despair. rainbow
——This is the sentence that resonates most with the defenders of Suramar now.
Although Suramar's shield had not yet been removed, the faces of the Nightborne defending the city were filled with numbness and despair when they saw the endless armies of the Scourge.
They can still build a defense line in the outermost city circle because the shield of the Dark Night Well has not disappeared. But once the shield is breached, the soldiers of the Children of the Night can't think of how they can fight against the front of the Scourge Legion.
Demon Swordsman Aluriel's expression was extremely solemn. Even through the indestructible Nightwell shield, she could clearly feel the huge oppression of the Scourge Legion.
"Grand Magister, we have assembled all available troops, but..." Oruriel hesitated for a moment, but continued, "Our number is still far less than the undead."
If the undead outside are just low-level cannon fodder monsters, then Suramar will not be so nervous. The magic weapons and structures they possess, as well as their mages, can easily destroy hundreds of skeleton soldiers and ghouls.
But the problem is that the number of spellcasters in the Scourge is likely to be more than that of Suramar. In addition, there are war puppets and weapons that the Nightborne have never heard of or seen. Once the Nightwell shield is broken, they have no chance of winning in a head-on battle. . rainbow
As for street fighting... No one dares to think about fighting hand-to-hand with the undead who are not afraid of death or worried about consumption in the city? There is no such way to find death. One second his comrades may be behind you to protect you, but the next second a knife will pierce your chest and turn you into an undead like him.
Elisande is not a fool. She certainly foresaw the tragedy of Suramar after the shield was broken, but her slightly pale cheeks were because no matter how she predicted the future, and even increased her absorption of the power of the Nightwell, she still remained We can only see the ending after Suramar's shield is broken.
In other words, Suramar will definitely lose this battle, and the day they die will be the day the shield is breached.
…
"I interfered with the flow of time and space here. No matter how Elisande observes, she can only observe the outcome of Suramar's defeat."
Nozdormu stared at the illusory time hourglass in his hand. Suramar's timeline was briefly stripped and hidden by him. Elisande could only observe the existing possibilities with the power of the Nightwell, but the Lord of Time directly Covering up countless possibilities, he only showed Elisande what he wanted to show her.
"Well, that's fine. If we can break their will to fight, maybe we can take down Suramar without a single blow." Alexstrasza is also quite satisfied with the result. As the life-binder, she doesn't I would like to see too many lives lost in the war. rainbow
"War is cruel, and it is impossible for no one to die at all." Malygos looked solemn, "Even we may die in the battle against the Burning Legion or the Ancient God."
"Nozdormu is done. How is your analysis of Suramar's shield, Malygos?" Alexstrasza asked another key question.
Malygos also immediately gave the answer, "It will take a while, but it will be soon. The results will be available tomorrow at most."
The Nightborne's arcane magic has deviated from the commonly used magic system after ten thousand years of closed-door development. In addition, they did not use the original magic network spread throughout Azeroth, but used the magic from the Nightwell, that is, The raw magic of the Eye of Aman'Thul makes their magic even strange and novel to Malygos.
It is a pity that Malygos, as a spellweaver who received the blessing of the Titans, still has a very high level of understanding of this primitive magic related to the Titans. With a superior understanding, he can reversely deduce that the structure of the Nightborne's shields is not What a difficult thing.
"Originally, this time would have been longer, but the Sha'dorei were obviously afraid and began to increase the energy output of the strengthened shield regardless of the consequences. This would actually affect the stability of the shield."
Malygos has basically understood the principle of how the Nightwell generates a shield, and also knows its biggest flaw: the Nightborne are too worried about the shield being breached, so they increase energy output to strengthen the shield regardless of the consequences. The strength of the shield has indeed been greatly improved, but whether the structure of the shield itself can support such energy flow has become a big problem. rainbow
Of course, this is not a stupid move, because if the shield is not strengthened and the shield is directly breached, Shadorei will be completely unable to resist. The Grand Mage is actually betting on whether the natural disaster will not choose because of the existence of the shield. Waste of time and troops in Suramar.
However, the presence of Malygos frustrated all the Archmage's plans to avoid the battle, as he was soon able to break through Suramar's last barrier.
"Alsace said that the natural disaster can be fully responsible for the frontal attack. We only need to provide necessary air support."
…
One day later, outside the city of Suramar, the shield was covered with the corpses of low-level undead, and large areas of land turned into scorched earth. Another attack by the Scourge was repelled by Suramar's defenders.
However, the Suramar officers and soldiers guarding the city were not at all happy or relaxed. Their eyes were bloodshot, and the hands holding their weapons were trembling.
For a whole day and night, the natural disasters did not give them any time to rest. They would launch attacks anytime and anywhere. The mages of the Children of the Night had also drained their energy. Every time a group spell was cast, someone would faint. rainbow
What's even more desperate is that when they send out arcane structures to suppress the natural disaster's attack and push the battle line away from the edge of the shield, the giant dragon in the sky will spit out various colors of gorgeous dragon breath, incinerating the Nightborne's counterattack. Everything is clean, and although those more bulky large structures can resist the dragon's breath, they cannot resist the void annihilation beam of the natural disaster floating city.
The biological organs derived from the flesh and blood of the ancient gods are directly mounted on the floating city's shooting platform. Every time these giant cannon-like biological tissues breathe, they will release devastating annihilation rays.
The natural disasters seemed to be consuming the physical energy of the Nightborne. The continuous cannon fodder attacks exhausted the Nightborne, but they could not ignore the low-level undead that rushed forward, because at first they thought that the large shield could directly degrade the cannon fodder undead, but Not long after, a defense line was almost penetrated by a void explosion.
Only then did the Children of the Night understand that those seemingly low-level cannon fodder randomly carried terrifyingly powerful unstable void bombs, which would cause violent explosions once they came into contact with the magic barrier.
This method of attack has almost no cost or burden on natural disasters, but the Children of the Night do not dare to ignore this rogue offensive.
"Have you made your decision, Elisande?"
The Lich King's voice rang in Elisande's ears, and the Grand Magister's body tensed up - her soldiers found the beacon at the place where they were almost blown through, and the Nightborne created the image of the Lich King. The weapon was brought back to the Night Fortress. rainbow
Arthas stared at Elisande. He could feel the power of the Night Well and Elisande's majestic arcane magic... Unfortunately, he was not his match, and he was still far from it.
