Deep in the starry sky, at the junction of the Infinity and the Twisting Void, this is where all light is extinguished, where all hope is annihilated, and the war fortress of the Burning Legion - Argus.
This traumatized and tortured planet is wailing. The nearly cracked mantle reaches almost as deep as the core of the planet. The oceans and vegetation that breed life have long been burned away by evil energy, leaving only the rugged, dark, lifeless earth, and countless demons. Wandering on the surface of the planet, it looks like a real hell scene. This is indeed a real purgatory on earth.
However, in Antorus and the Burning Throne, the furious Kil'jaeden put all his demon officers in danger, because countless incompetent demons had been destroyed by the Deceiver.
Demons are not afraid of death, partly because they are cruel and fearless by nature, and partly because it is difficult for their souls to die completely, but in Argus, this special place located on the border of the Endless End and the Twisting Nether, and on Argus The concentration of evil energy is extremely high. Killing a demon here means real death.
However, a happy death may be considered a gift in Argus.
The Burning Throne buried deep in the core of the planet is emitting soul-trembling wails all the time. Countless souls, and perhaps something else, are experiencing terrible torture in this fortress.
Kil'jaeden let go of his hand, and a blackened demon skull fell to the ground. After rolling for a few times, it was crushed by the Deceiver's heavy hoofs. A breath of breath came out of the mouth of the legion leader, who had died tragically in his hands just now. The ashes burned by the demon were immediately blown away.
"Have you not found the whereabouts of that traitor yet?"
His eyes shone with a dangerous and cunning light, and his sharp gaze swept across the silent demon group. The cruel demons also seemed kind-hearted at this moment.
Seeing that no one dared to speak, Kil'jaeden took a deep breath, suppressed the rising anger, and shouted angrily in a low voice, "Get out of my sight, you useless trash."
After the deceiver finished speaking, the trembling demons fled away as if they had been granted amnesty, lest they leave too late and become the same unlucky guy as the guy who turned to ashes just now.
Without piles of waste dirtying the back of his eyes, Kil'jaeden could completely suppress his anger, but there was still a lingering irritability in his heart, which made Kil'jaeden quite unhappy.
"Stop hiding, Archimonde. I didn't call you here today to watch the jokes of these losers."
Kil'jaeden's words made Archimonde, who was hiding in the dark, no longer hide. The Defiler's huge soul body appeared and floated not far from Kil'jaeden. He let out a deep laugh, "The joke of this bunch of losers? Haha, is it possible that I want to see your joke?"
"Then it's up to you. Don't think you can escape the blame." Kil'jaeden waved his hand impatiently. He stared at Archimonde's soul, frowned and asked, "What's going on with you? Why are you like this?" It’s been a long time and I still haven’t returned to my normal physical body.”
Kil'jaeden's questioning made Archimonde stop laughing. Indeed, after the defeat at Mount Hyjal, no one except Kil'jaeden and Sargeras dared to look at him due to his status in the Burning Legion. He was a joke, but his long-term inability to return to normal physical body also caused a lot of rumors among the legion, and some unruly demons even focused on his position as a polluter.
"My body was destroyed once in Mount Hyjal, but those elves' tricks couldn't hurt my soul at all, but there was a guy who took advantage of that opportunity to trip me up behind my back."
Archimonde's voice became vicious. If he didn't know who was responsible, he would definitely make the other party suffer the most horrific punishment in Antorus.
"My soul was contaminated by a bunch of messy soul fragments for unknown reasons. A master who played with souls collected the soul fragments that died in that battle and forcibly mixed them with my soul when I was exiled back to the Twisting Nether. , the chaotic energy storm at that time prevented me from even noticing it.”
The Defiler never thought that his soul could be tampered with by others. Even after he returned to Argus, he failed to discover this problem. It was not until he was about to reshape his body that he discovered the things left in his soul. The "legacy" in it.
It was the "soul poison" composed of Alsace's collected souls of dead elves and other mortals - in fact, these soul fragments that were about to dissipate were not that toxic to other souls. At most, they became too chaotic. It becomes a soul mixture, but for the unique Demon Soul, the forcible combination of a mortal soul with itself is a kind of pollution in itself.
That is to say, Archimonde is powerful and has a way to get rid of these souls bit by bit. Otherwise, the contaminated demon soul may not be able to complete the reshaping of the body. When the body dies, it will be extremely dangerous to be exposed to the twisting void again. things.
When Kil'jaeden learned the truth of the matter, he no longer questioned and scolded Archimonde for taking so long to recover, Archimonde's description, and those who were missing in Azeroth. The dreadlord made Kil'jaeden suspicious.
There is no doubt that most of the Dread Lords are masters of playing with souls, and they seem to be a subject of doubt, but Kil'jaeden felt that it was not the group of bats that secretly set a trap for Archimonde.
It's not that Kil'jaeden didn't doubt them, it was just that he didn't think Nathrezim would take action at this time. In fact, Kil'jaeden never fully believed in those bats. The so-called civilization of those guys was full of loopholes. Maybe The aloof Sargeras couldn't see anything, but as the former leader of the eredar, Kil'jaeden had already noticed something was wrong.
It's just that the Nathrezim were at least loyal to the Legion on the surface. Even if they knew that they had ulterior motives, at least they were busy with their work. Kil'jaeden turned a blind eye, because he knew that the people with problems were not idle. It's not scary. What's scary is that you don't know the details of this guy.
Now it seems that the person they least understand about is on Azeroth, whether it is Archimonde who discovered that someone had tricked him after the defeat of Mount Hyjal, or the base they were uprooted from in the outer realm, and the one who just recently The stolen Sargerite Keystone... In addition to Illidan, someone else is destroying the Legion's layout.
Just when Kil'jaeden was about to discuss the next countermeasures with Archimonde, a message interrupted them.
The content of the message is very simple. It comes from Hasabel, who controls the transmission hub of the Burning Legion, and the reason why she sends the message is also very simple - an ancient portal has been opened, and the destination of the portal is... Azeroth.
Kil'jaeden and Archimonde looked at each other sharply - What's going on?
