In the long period of time after being exposed to magic, the human mages of Dalaran discovered something that the high elf mentors had ignored intentionally or unintentionally.
Humans are indeed inferior to elves in terms of magical talent.
The spells that high elf mages can easily understand can only be understood by top students.
The spells that high elf mages can cast at will can be used by humans to evaluate their professional titles.
But humans never despair.
With the support of its huge population base, Dalaran, or the Council of Tirisfal, has made its own way.
The most intuitive manifestation of this human magic path is the so-called legion level spell.
I alone am an army...
Whether it is Malfurion Stormrage, Tyrande Windspeaker, or even Shandris Feathermoon, they all possess the powerful magical ability to destroy an entire legion by one person.
Even during the Kaldorei Empire, Queen Azshara's unreasonable and tyrannical magic meant that she did not need help from others.
However, humans cannot do that. Even Aegwynn Medina, who has been running rampant in Azeroth for eight hundred years, needs the assistance of others when enforcing justice.
Behind this objective difference in strength lies a difference in thinking.
Human legion-level magic relies on the coordinated casting of multiple archmages.
Such as "Eternal Winter".
In unrecorded history, Dalaran has used [Eternal Winter] several times to deal with trolls.
In the history textbooks, Emperor Thoradin and Darth Marei destroyed the troll empire like a mare.
This is not the case.
The failure of that battle only caused Zul'Aman's Amani trolls to lose their strategic initiative and lose a large number of regular troops.
However, the trolls' perseverance as a race allowed them to persevere and continue to fight against humans and high elves for hundreds of years.
It was against this background that the Lakeside Castle of Keldaron was built.
The old house of the Barov family is essentially a war fortress built regardless of the cost to resist the invasion of trolls.
It was during the construction of Keldaron Lake Castle that [Eternal Winter] first came to the trolls.
The strategic goal was achieved, Silvermoon City established its territorial boundary in the Eversong Forest, the elves were busy recuperating and building rune stones, and the Thoradin Empire faced the counterattack of the Amani Empire alone.
At that time, the Lakeside Castle of Keldaron had not yet been completed, and overwhelming troll warriors roared out of the mountains and forests.
This time, there was no ambush planned by the high elves, and there was no raging fire storm that destroyed the world.
What greeted the troll was the biting cold wind in July.
More than four hundred human mages jointly cast spells. Under the guidance of the first guardian Alodi, the trolls understood how warm the climate in the Alterac Mountains was and what the eternal cold winter was.
Merry Dongfeng is not sure who is stronger or weaker between himself now and Alodi back then, but he is very sure that he cannot fully cast [Eternal Winter], and there is no need to do so.
Because the old mage cast this spell to save people, not to compete with the Scourge Legion for heads.
When the complete [Eternal Winter] is cast, Lordaeron does not need Arthas to slaughter it, it is simply a dead city carved out of ice.
Under the influence of legion-level spells, the wind and clouds suddenly changed, and the biting cold wind came from the east and roared past, trying to blow away the poisonous cloud of plague entrenched in the city.
But soon Meili Dongfeng was shocked to discover that he suffered from a lack of education.
Natural disasters and epidemics are not simply bacterial and viral poison compounds. They are also the creation of magic. Although the diluted poison cloud has changed from a "lethal" level of harm to a "high risk", it is also faster because of the spell of Meri Dongfeng. diffusion.
The old mage was not a patient with Mary syndrome, and he had no time to kneel down, caress his face, and ask himself, "What have I done?"
Meili Dongfeng increased the magic power output, and the howling cold wind quickly turned into gloomy thunderclouds. After a short brewing period, the cold icy rain began to randomly hit the faces of the people in the epidemic area, and the virus mixed with the cold rain. Together.
Although there were heavy casualties, Meili Dongfeng successfully contained the spread of the plague.
At this time, Carlos also made his own decision.
Capture the thief first, capture the king, capture Alsace, everything is still possible.
"Sorry, uncle, I don't have time."
Carlos glanced at everyone nostalgically, and once again hit the target with one move.
The holy storm rose again, and the death knights within a radius of 300 meters found themselves unable to move forward. The power of shadow and the power of holy light neutralized each other to generate huge heat, which seemed to make their hearts that had stopped beating long ago warm again.
"Go well."
Carlos swung his battle ax, and many weapons condensed with the power of holy light appeared in the holy storm field, mercilessly cutting the death knight's body.
The storm subsided and the battle came to an end.
This is the result of the simple gap between strength and weakness, and is the result of Carlos's tireless training for more than ten years.
There was no time to remember the past, and no one needed to lead the way. Carlos quickly shuttled through the palace of Lordaeron, preparing to rush to the royal palace to end this cause and effect.
So Carlos didn't notice that after he left, the thirty-eighth Death Knight appeared in front of the palace, where he had fought before.
The death knight randomly picked a target and walked over, and it happened to be Lilas Windrunner.
I saw the rune sword inserted into Lilas' chest, and the runes on the sword lit up one after another. As the power of blood and shadow was injected again, the death knight killed by Carlos was resurrected again.
One resurrects one, two resurrects two, four resurrects four...
Seven broken guys came out, and thirty death knights were resurrected again.
No need for extra words, the Lich King's order appeared in their minds.
Bigglas Trollbane looked at those dead guys with regret.
Now, he must bring despair and panic to the city of Lordaeron for the sake of the Lich King.
What Carlos had been worried about finally happened, and the death knights scattered.
The Royal Palace of Lordaeron is not big, at least for Carlos at this time, it is easy to come and go.
But when Carlos walked through the palace, he felt an eerie and terrifying feeling.
Where are people?
Whether it’s a living person, a corpse, or an enemy, what about people?
When Carlos rushed to the Royal Palace, there was nothing left except the blood stains on the floor silently telling the story of the tragedy.
What about the Alsatians?
Where are the cursed cultists who revolted?
The empty palace seemed to be the Lich King's silent mockery of Carlos.
The exhausted Meili. Dongfeng can no longer maintain [Eternal Winter].
When he gathered his magic power and resealed the Maitri Scroll, the cloud formed by magic naturally dissipated.
However, the sun did not shine in Lordaeron, and a huge shadow covered the sky.
Mobile Fortress, City in the Sky, Naxxramas, the most powerful creation of the Scourge, has arrived.
