Chapter 46 - New Power
…………
Kel'Thuzad is indeed a useful helper, Arthas thought to himself, as they stood on a green hill with a captured port below.
This lich is absolutely loyal to the Lich King, although when necessary, he can vividly pretend to be a servant in front of Archimonde and Tichondrius. But Arthas chooses to remain silent most of the time, he is not sure that he can
Could he tell lies as realistically as Kel'Thuzad did? The two demons were so arrogant that he couldn't keep calm. Several times, Arthas even wanted to attack directly, but was reprimanded by the Lich King.
"Archimonde has come to this world. For the Burning Legion, the plan has come to an end. But for the Lich King's Scourge, the plan has just begun."
Arthas was relieved in his heart. What Kel'Thuzad said at least proved that they were not really obeying the Burning Legion. However, after seeing Archimonde's power, Arthas was very doubtful whether the Lich King was this demon.
opponent. So he is more eager than before to seek the final answer.
"The purpose of the Burning Legion has always been to destroy this world, but to occupy it. In order to achieve this goal, they need to go to the continent of Kalimdor in the west. There is another magical container similar to the Sunwell on that continent. A
The giant tree called Nordrassil is called the World Tree by the Kaldorei elves. It gives the Kaldorei immortal life and is connected to them by blood, just like the Sunwell and the high elves."
"The Kaldorei?" Arthas was confused. "I only know the Quel'dorei. Are they another kind of elves?"
"They are called night elves. Logically speaking, they are the ancestors of Quel'dorei and the most primitive appearance of the high elves." Kel'Thuzad corrected. He shook his head slightly, "These are of no use to us.
Talking about it is not the point. What we have to ensure is that we must secretly stop the Burning Legion's expedition. This is why the Lich King sent Nathanos there first."
"Want to learn about the situation over there?"
"Yes, the situation there is very complicated. Not long ago, the orcs have crossed the endless sea to that continent, and a large number of humans have also fled there. They will unite to stop the Burning Legion."
"Humans, orcs?" Arthas sneered, "Do you think these defeated generals of the Scourge can stop those demons? And humans and elves are mortal enemies, how can they join forces? It's really ridiculous."
"The Lich King's predictions are never wrong, Death Knight." Kel'Thuzad pointed out this point, and continued to add: "What's more, besides them, there are also the Kaldorei elves."
"The kingdom of the high elves was also destroyed by us! How much can this gang of rabble do together?"
Kel'Thuzad understood what Arthas meant. The reason why the Death Knight belittled those races was simply because he could not stop the demons himself. Without the power of the Scourge, or without his power, the Burning Legion would not have failed.
"The night elves are different from the high elves, Prince Arthas. They are the oldest race in the world, and they successfully defeated the demons once thousands of years ago. At that time, the master of the Burning Legion was thousands more terrifying than Archimonde.
Times the Dark Titan Sargeras. And this time, they can do it too."
"In that case, what else do we need from the Scourge?" Alsace asked disdainfully. Invincible seemed to feel his master's emotions, and he stamped his feet uneasily.
Kel'Thuzad has reminded Arthas many times to be patient, but the other side has obviously never valued the value of these two words. "I have just said that we must secretly ensure the defeat of the Burning Legion."
"Since we can't take the initiative to attack the devil, what should we do?"
The fire in Lich's eyes was brighter than before, "Among the night elves, there is a person who can be used. As for you, the death knight, you need to go to the continent of Kalimdor to find this person. And I will stay here to help
You expand the Scourge."
"Who? Why not let Nathanos find him?" Arthas was obviously more interested in Kel'Thuzad's mission. Expanding the Scourge meant killing, and only killing could satisfy Frostmourne.
"You do trust that person."
"Why not? There is no doubt about Nathanos' ability."
"You have to remember one thing, young death knight. Not everyone will accept death willingly!"
…
On this hill on a distant continent, with an open view and no obstacles, Nathanos could already see the orcs, and what surprised him was that there were other races among the orcs, trolls and tauren,
He finally saw the new species alive. It was just like what he imagined in his mind, except that there was an extra tail behind the butt. The mounts of these minotaurs were also very interesting, a giant lizard-like creature.
In addition to the tauren, what surprised Nathanos was their enemy. Another strange-looking creature, and it directly overturned Veronara's inference just now.
Centaurs and half-horses look more savage than orcs. They mostly use spears and axes as weapons, and some carry bows and arrows.
"Nathanos, what kind of monsters are those?" Veronara felt disgusted in her heart, whether it was for orcs or those things that looked like beasts.
"I have never seen such a creature. However, this kind of...centaur creature should not be a beast that can be slaughtered by others. The corpse in the jungle just now should be their work. It can hunt the strong tauren, their
The strength must not be weak." Nathanos stared at the battlefield in the distance. Both sides were ready to attack, and an orc leader seemed to be saying something passionately to boost morale.
"Look carefully at those centaurs." He pointed with his finger. "They are gathered together in large numbers. The most important thing is that they have their own formation. From this, it can be inferred that they are intelligent life forms."
Nathanos was right, and it was soon confirmed. When the orc army and the centaur army, who were waiting for help, let out a deafening roar at the same time, the two armies started fighting, and the sound of the collision of weapons was like a symphony.
It was played in the wasteland under the long night. This is not a simple battle. Cold weapons are not the only characters. There is also magic. To be precise, it is a kind of witchcraft similar to magic. In the beginning, this witchcraft came from
On the side of the orcs, and it is not evil, but a new kind of witchcraft, with lightning and whirlwind, as well as water summoned from the ground, and totems placed on the ground. Nathanos believes that the orcs have gained new power
, but soon he was surprised to find that there were also guys using this power in the Centaur Legion.
