Illidan swung his war blade and held Orgrim's heavy war hammer. His arm muscles bulged, and the green blood vessels eroded by evil energy were clearly visible. He pushed Orgrim away with fierce force.襥
The orc lord took a few steps back, relieved the push from Illidan, once again grasped the war hammer with both hands, and took a stance. His eyes were full of desire for battle - this dead body was good at everything, except that it could not feel anything. He originally thought that the thrill of fighting was a common problem among the dead, but now it seemed that he had not yet met an opponent who could activate his soul.
Orgrim's long-lost fighting spirit has been rekindled, but Illidan only feels that the current situation is very bad. Illidan has not fully recovered from the injuries caused by the battle in the Black Temple, and Azshara has driven him to the shelf again. He came to seek the Tidestone, but met the natural disaster troops led by Orgrim...
The successive emergencies gave Illidan a headache. He glanced around and found that the undead were quickly defeating the Naga army that Sasslin had placed under him. Thoughts flashed through Illidan's mind quickly, and soon a thought came to his mind. Got a new idea.
Orgrim didn't know what Illidan was thinking here. His powerful and heavy blows followed one after another. A warhammer with an astonishing weight was playing like a tiger in his hand, and he beat like raindrops continuously. Along with the death knight's unique dark spell, Illidan can only passively defend for the time being.
But the Demon Hunter has more than this ability. His superb skills allow him to parry Orgrim's attacks time and time again. At the same time, the fel tattoos printed on his body help Illidan resist the annoying dark spells.
Just when the battle was at its peak, Illidan suddenly burst out with a sentence, causing Orgrim's continuous offensive to stall. The orc frowned, smashed Illidan away with a hammer, and stood there. No more rash attacks.
"How about you, consider my proposal?"
Illidan got a chance to breathe. He danced with the double blades in his hands and was not in a hurry to launch another close attack. He was waiting for a response from Orgrim—actually a response from Arthas. He knew that the other party was likely to be there. Watch this battle.
Sure enough, Orgrim quickly gave up his plan to continue the attack. He stared at Illidan, ignored the demon hunter with a smile on his face, and turned to join the encirclement and suppression of Sasslin's troops.
Illidan took this opportunity to hide in the hall where the Tidestone was hidden, where Vashj was looking for the broken Tidestone and repairing it.
When Illidan entered the hall, the repair was just in progress, but a mountain-like figure blocked in front of Illidan. It was Sasslin's servant Hayatan, the terrifying deep-water behemoth.
"Get out of the way, we have to retreat, the troops outside are crumbling."
Hayatan tilted his head and glanced at Illidan, but made no move. Just when Illidan was about to get impatient and was about to kill the monster in front of him regardless of the trouble, Hayatan suddenly stepped away and gave way to the way.
Illidan was too lazy to communicate with such low-intelligence beasts, who only knew how to listen to other people's orders or follow instinctive actions. He went straight to Vashj's side and found that all the parts of the Tide Stone had been found, and these fragments were in Under Vashj's magic, they gradually became an interconnected whole.襥
Although it is impossible to change it into the same state as before it was shattered, as long as the connection between the fragments of the Tide Stone can be restored, the use of this artifact will not be affected.
"It's time for us to leave. The undead have almost killed all Sasslin's troops." Illidan reminded Vashj.
Vashj nodded, used magic to contain the Tide Stone, and began to chant the spell to teleport magic.
Hayatan discovered the precursor of the teleportation magic and was about to come over. Just as they were standing together waiting for the teleportation magic to take effect, Hayatan's beast-like intuition made him feel the threat of death.
His huge body showed agility that was completely inconsistent with his size. He first jumped back quickly, away from Illidan, and then raised his arms to protect his head and chest. In the next moment, blazing evil energy rays shot from Illidan's body. With flashes of fire in his eyes, the demon hunter grinned and activated the chaotic energy in his body, roasting Hayatan's arms to the ground.
However, this sturdy monster was not fatally injured. The injury made him more dangerous. But when he roared and prepared to fly to capture Illidan, his body He froze suddenly, and then let out a painful cry.
A rune battle ax that resembled Gorehowl was deeply embedded in Hayatan's back. Originally, the injury was not enough to knock him down, but the ax was still filled with dark magic from a powerful death knight.襥
Heart attack!
There is no doubt that this evil attack lived up to its name. Even if it did not directly contact the heart, it also caused serious damage to Hayatan's heart function. This monster that relies on physical activity almost lost its ability after suffering violent trauma to its important organs. Difficulty maintaining a standing position.
Of course, the natural disaster's attacks would not stop there. Countless low-level undead and death knights rushed into the inner hall, pushing down and covering up the hill-like Hayatan. At the last second before the teleportation magic was activated, Vasqi and Yili All Dan could see was an orc death knight jumping on Hayatan's broad back and pulling out the battle ax with a bang.
…
Hayatan fell in Nar'thalas Academy, but Vashj and Illidan escaped. And since almost all of the people who died in this battle were troops from Sasslin, their power was not only Instead of being injured, Azshara was left dumb.
But looking at the Tidestone in his hand, Illidan felt that it had suddenly become a hot potato - both Arthas and Azshara were looking for this thing, but he was not interested in holding the Pillar of Creation. convenient……
The thing he was looking for was actually not in the main tomb where Aegwynn sealed Sargeras. It could be entered without the Pillars of Creation, so he had to consider the risks and benefits of keeping this artifact in his hands.襥
Vashj seemed to understand some of Illidan's thoughts, and she suggested, "If you are worried, I can take this stone to find Queen Azshara's people to revive me, and you can continue to complete your work. good."
She also understood the complicated situation involved in the Tidestone, but Illidan shook his head and rejected Vashj's plan, "We can't give it to Azshara directly, that will not do us any good."
"Then we may be endlessly hunted by Queen Azshara." Vashj understood why Illidan did this, but the Tidestone would have little effect on them, and keeping it in their hands would only increase the risk.
"We have already tricked Azshara and her men, and even if not...she will most likely not let us go."
Based on his understanding of Azshara, Illidan knew that the operation to steal the Tidestone could no longer be successful. However, Azshara seemed to be unable to reach out to land yet. Illidan guessed that Azshara was looking for The Tide Stone is probably just to be able to reach farther.
But you can't just give the Tidestone to the Lich King directly... Illidan plans to put on a show. It's best to transfer his hatred to the Scourge and let Azshara fight with the Aspect Dragon and the Lich King. , he can take the opportunity to escape from it.
...襥
"Your Majesty the Lich King, why did you ask me to let that demon hunter go?" Orgrim was a little confused. According to him, it would be better to capture Illidan.
"Let Illidan divert Azshara's attention first, but just have people keep an eye on Illidan and his men, and don't let him stay away from the Broken Islands."
Arthas's idea was very simple. First, let Illidan run around with the Tidestone to take away Azshara's attention. Anyway, the Pillars of Creation hadn't been collected yet, so he wanted to get the Tidestone first. On the contrary, it will be coveted by Naga, so it is better to find it last.
With Illidan's character, it is impossible to hand the Tidestone directly to Azshara. He will definitely take this opportunity to seek more benefits and living space. It is unrealistic for Arthas to obtain it directly from Illidan. , it is better to keep an eye on Illidan's movements and intercept him when he is ready to trade with Azshara.
With Suramar as an anchor, the Scourge's eyes are almost all over the Broken Islands, which is no worse than their control over Northrend. Moreover, Azshara took the Tidestone just to make a big fuss, and it is difficult not to be discovered. .
However, Arthas didn't know that there was "one more person" - actually a dragon who was dissatisfied with Illidan's behavior and was preparing to settle the score with Illidan himself.
Malygos waved his wings and cut through the clouds above Azsuna, following the traces left by Vashj's teleportation spell, and was chasing Illidan and Vashj who had just left Narthalas Academy.襥
A few hours later, on the Watch Island in the strait south of Azsuna, Maiev was standing on the mountain outside the Watcher's Cave, silently blowing the sea breeze and sorting out her thoughts, but was awakened by a violent magical vibration in the distance.
The warden looked into the distance in confusion, and saw that the clouds in the distance were stirred by powerful magical power. Heavy rain poured down from the dark cloud cover, and lightning rubbed and jumped in the sky. This unusual movement made her Very uneasy - Dangerous prisoners are imprisoned on Watch Island. In order to ensure the safety of the cave, Maiev decided to take people to investigate what happened.
