One Hundred and Fortieth IX Illidan and the Flame Alliance (5)

Welcome, please remember the address of this site:, read on your mobile phone, so that you can read the latest chapter of the novel "Shadow Bear Tibbers' Journey to the Plane" at any time...

In the streets and alleys of the Royal City of Lordaeron, where the fierce street battles between the four clan armies of the Flame Alliance and the undead are still going on in full swing.

Originally, under the scruples and orders of Generalissimo Garithos, the rapid-fire fighting style began to gradually shrink the front line, from the full-strength attack at the beginning to the current conservative attack that is step by step and steady.

However, even so, so far, the four-nation coalition forces of fire elements, Lordaeron humans, high elves and dwarves have occupied more than half of the city area of ​​Lordaeron, and their battle lines have gradually begun to move towards the south. The original palace of Lordaeron is slowly advancing, gradually reducing the activity space of the undead Scourge in this huge city.

Up to now, the fire element and the troops of the other three tribes have become more and more tacitly coordinated. Their current combat method is generally charged by the fire element army with special abilities. Then, the dwarf musketeers or high elf rangers began to call and shoot one by one from a distance, while Lordaeron's plate armor legion followed behind to clean up the missed remnants.

"Humans below, be careful! There is a large group of ghouls, at least one hundred in number, and they are about to rush over from the street on the left!"

A high elf ranger is half squatting on a four-story wooden and stone structure roof that has been burned down to only beams, stepping on the logs that are still covered with ashes and blackened by the fire, observing the situation on the front line .

She didn't quite understand why the humans below rushed over so quickly. Didn't Grand Marshal Garithos order to slow down the attack? At this moment, they should follow the big army and push them slowly, right?

"Be alert! Formation!"

A sword-and-shield phalanx infantry of the Kingdom of Lordaeron, who was walking cautiously in the streets burned beyond recognition by the fire element, heard the warning sound of the high elf ranger lying on the roof of a house next to the street and shooting , and hurried to the streets on both sides, carefully forming a formation and waiting for orders.

More than a hundred ghouls are still very threatening to their infantry squad of just one hundred and five people.

Sure enough, these Lordaeron recruits had just formed their formation. On the other side of the street, a large group of ghouls with hands and feet, with ferocious claws and fangs, roared and appeared at the entrance of the street. After they saw the humans here, they immediately charged towards these living people. The power and power made many recruits tremble with their shields in their hands.

"Attention everyone! Hold on to the shields in your hands! Use your shoulders to exert strength,

We must maintain formation and withstand their first wave of impact! "

"Don't worry, our large army is behind us! We only need to hold them for a while, and our large army of the Flame Alliance will come over soon!"

In this Lordaeron hundred-man squad, a lieutenant captain is shouting loudly in the formation. As a veteran and commander, he must boost the morale of his subordinates.

While shouting, he also sighed in his heart. It seemed that they rushed too far.

The reason why they rushed so fast was that they were blinded by the easy victory before. Just to get a little more military merit, he ignored the order and led the recruits under him to break away from the main force and rushed all the way to the coalition army. The front of the battle line, here, is still the area scouted by elves. It seems that their troops will suffer a lot today!

Looking at the large group of ghouls rushing across the street ahead, the veteran captain felt that even if they succeeded in annihilating this group of ghouls, they would lose more than half of them by then, right?

Now it seems that he is really doomed, and he can be regarded as returning alive. The lightest punishment is probably to be kicked off, his rank will be wiped out and he will be a big soldier?

boom! boom! boom!

Just as the captain of the lieutenant was moaning endlessly while encouraging morale, suddenly, a violent explosion sounded in the not spacious street ahead.

This group of ghouls who were rushing towards them were overturned to the ground by the explosive airflow and flames in that narrow space. Some were unlucky, and they were directly blown up and turned into countless remnants broken arm...

Is this a dwarven cannon? They themselves... were saved?

Sure enough, when the lieutenant turned his head and looked behind him, there was a small dwarf artillery unit over there, and there were small cannons that could be carried by two people in front of them. At this time, their muzzles were emitting a little gunpowder smoke. Obviously, the shelling just now was fired by them.

"Great opportunity! Everyone, charge forward! Chop it up!"

Seeing that the large group of ghouls lost more than half of their lives and were in a dazed state, the lieutenant was startled, reacted instantly, and quickly ordered the recruits under him to charge!

He has already seen that behind the dwarf artillery, more coalition forces are coming. Now, they must take advantage of the brief chaos after the group of ghouls were bombed, and rush straight to take this Let's talk about the credit that has already been obtained.

It turned out that this was a group of dwarven mortar units that helped them a lot just now. These dwarven artillerymen also ran into the city as the frontline advanced, and began to bombard the frontline troops in depth.

Although their heavy artillery is hopeless, dragging those cumbersome things in the current street fighting, it is estimated that when they fail to drag them into the city, the battle will be over, right?

However, there are many kinds of artillery for their dwarves. In addition to the heavy artillery battalions outside the city that can be used as naval artillery, they also have light mortars like the one in front of them. This small artillery is very light, and one or two strong The dwarf can carry it and run! Therefore, they can even follow behind the combat troops, rushing while shelling, and they will never fall behind.

At this time, after the group of Lordaeron soldiers chopped up the remaining ghouls, a large group of pure-blooded fire eagles also swooped down from the sky, and they continued to set fire to disperse or destroy the nearby undead teams that were trying to gather , or use the fire to isolate the streets, so that these undead have to fight on their own, and cannot form a large-scale cluster attack on the coalition troops on the front line.

At this time, on another street not far from the lone Lordaeron team, a group of dwarf warriors, human infantry, elf rangers, and fire elementals were besieging an elite undead squad composed of zombies and mending abominations.

"Aha! Good job, big dogs! Get out of the way, you guys get out of the way! Don't grab this, it's mine!"

When several lava dogs desperately bit a chain hook thrown by a small abomination, and worked together to drag it into the front line of the coalition forces, suddenly, a loud voice came from a group of people who were about to step forward. The soldiers of Lordaeron who sliced ​​the hate yelled loudly from behind.

Then, before the fallen abomination could stand up after being dragged for a long distance, a Wildhammer dwarf warrior with a huge hammer on his wheel comically took his short steps while waving The huge warhammer in his hand, which was comparable to his size, stepped forward a few steps, and hit the head of the abomination with a slam.

"Hahaha……"

The moment the sledgehammer hit the ground, red, white, and black splashed all over the ground. Just like that, his blow directly smashed the hated head into a disgusting mess. The dwarf warrior's own His beard was covered with a lot of disgusting unknown things, but...he didn't care about it, but laughed out loud.

The war has progressed to the point in front of it, and there is no suspense at all.

The middle-level officers in charge of the battle command at the front all felt that if the Grand Marshal didn't seem to be worried about something and didn't dare to order them to attack with all their strength, they might have already liberated all the ground areas of the entire King City of Lordaeron by now. ?

...

Compared with the fierce battle on the ground, under Lordaeron, in this underground city dug out by the undead, it is quite different.

Except for the blue soul fire still beating in the eyes of the skeleton zombies around, adding a weird atmosphere to this place, the rest is all dead silence.

"My lord, you... what's wrong with you?"

At this time, on the second underground floor of Lordaeron, in this labyrinth-like city dug out by the undead, the legendary Lich Kel'Thuzad is carefully supporting Arthas, who is half kneeling on the ground and howling in pain. .

Now, even Kel'Thuzad doesn't know why their undead Lord Alsace suddenly became so weak? Just now, if he hadn't had quick eyesight and quick hands to grab the opponent and teleport him directly to the second underground floor, he would have been smashed to the ground by that huge lava giant long ago, right?

Master... just now, what happened? Why...why is the power you bestowed on me constantly losing? I feel very weak right now...

Arthas ignored Kel'Thuzad's questioning, but held tightly with one hand the artifact Frostmourne, which was gradually getting heavier, and hurriedly contacted the Lich King Ne'ao, who could exist in his mind all the time. Zu, his titular "master"!

(Alsace...my knight...the Icecrown Glacier is being shaken by the enemy's spell...now, my throne has begun to crack...my strength is also losing a lot...)

My great master, then, what shall I do now?

Hearing this, Alsace nodded secretly while his eyes turned cold, as if he had made some kind of decision. Sure enough, as he thought, there was a big problem with the Lich King, otherwise, he wouldn't suddenly become like this.

This made Alsace more firm in his original thinking. It is really unreliable to rely on the power of others. He must try to plunder his own power, the power that can be controlled by himself! And now, the Lich King, who has entered a weak state, seems to be a good choice?

(Don't worry about things in Lordaeron...let Kel'Thuzad cast spells immediately...you come to Northrend right now...the enemy's plot to destroy me will not succeed...Alsace... Come to my side... I will give you more power... endless power...)

Do as you please, my lord.

As the voice of the Lich King faded away, Death Knight Arthas slowly got better. Then, he began to use Frostmourne to support the floor with difficulty, and slowly stood up. After a while, he gradually got used to the feeling of weakness after losing a lot of strength.

"Kel'Thuzad, let's get started... Now, go open the portal and bring the most elite undead troops, we are going to Northrend now, the Lich King is calling us..."

Alsace knew that now, they had to leave.

With his current weak state, if Kel'Thuzad is not around, he only needs to rush in later, a high-ranking soldier from Lordaeron, and it is estimated that he can easily kill Alsace! So, if they don't leave early now, if the coalition forces attack after a while, they won't be able to leave even if they want to!

"Follow my orders, Your Majesty, I will prepare right now, don't worry about me, soon, I will be able to open the portal in just a little time."

Although I don't know what happened to Alsace, and I don't know why he became so weak, looking at the look in front of him, I guess he can't even lift Frostmourne?

This is really interesting...

However, Kel'Thuzad still tactfully didn't say anything. He also knew that Arthas must have contacted the Lich King just now. The lives of these Lich Kings are all in the hands of the Lich King. Well, then, he just had to obey orders.

Anyway, retreating from Lordaeron to the Northrend continent was originally an established plan, and the battle situation in the above cities is probably not optimistic now. If he doesn't leave quickly, if the coalition army finds the underground entrance and attacks in, it will cause big trouble.

"Go ahead, as fast as you can."

Arthas waved his hand strenuously. He was very unaccustomed to the current state. He wanted to respond to the Lich King's call and return to Northrend in the shortest possible time.

...

On the south side of the Lordaeron battlefield, in the ruins of Dalaran opposite the Lordaeron Mire Lake, in the ritual venue carefully selected by Illidan to try to destroy the Icecrown Glacier, there are three groups of people gathered, and they are now facing each other .

And the night elves and Naga who were at war also began to shrink back to their respective lines, leaving behind the corpses of night elves, Naga or murlocs in the middle, when a third party army appeared After that, they no longer dared to easily fight against the enemy on the opposite side.

At this time, the three groups of people facing each other here are located in the west. They are the night elves who secretly landed from the west coast not long ago and rushed out of the dense forest to capture Illidan. They are led by the Archdruid Malfurion Stormrage, the priest of the goddess Elune Tyrande Whisperwind, and the prison warden Maiev Shadowsong. There are about three or four thousand people here. Some of them are nightsaber hunters and archers, and there are a small number of druids and hippogryph archers. As for whether there are more in the landing camp on the west coast, it is not clear.

On the south side, and closely guarding the magic circle that is still in operation, are the demon hunter Illidan and the leader of the Naga tribe, Vashj. They probably have nearly 2,000 strong Naga here now. And the deep-sea murlocs, just now, they were able to compete with the night elves.

In the end, it was Little Anne and the most elite ace troops in the Flame Alliance led by Little Anne, who lined up in the north and threatened the southwest.

"What's wrong? Don't want to fight now?"

Now, after seeing her helper finally arrive, it's little Anne's turn to be proud.

"Are you guys going to keep fighting? I still want to watch the excitement for a while!"

Little Annie felt that this was really amazing. These two groups of strangers, these monsters came to their territory, and they dared to play tricks on themselves as the master? They must not know who is in charge of the land under their feet, right?

She had just landed the fire hawk lord Selia. At this moment, Annie was standing on Selia's back, looking triumphantly at the two groups of villains who had to be separated because of the arrival of her reinforcements.

The little Annie at this moment, of course, has the capital to brag about her!

Because, next to her is Chief Shane Knox, a legendary survival hunter who led a thousand of the most elite royal guards of the Flame Kingdom! Among them, if one or two were randomly selected, they all had at least a high level of strength, and their two chief and deputy commanders had even reached the lord level, which is what humans call the hero level.

Of course, this is not the end!

On the right side of the fire demon's royal guard phalanx is Saidan Dathrohan, the commander of the Silver Hand, and several hundred of his most elite cavalry cavalry!

These are not recruits who have just been recruited and trained. They are all ruthless characters who have survived the raging undead until now. Whether it is the use of holy light or the proficiency of combat skills, they are all ranked among all human paladins. The top exists!

And on the right side of the fire demon royal guard phalanx, is the Great Lord of the Eagle's Nest Mountain Wildhammer dwarves, dozens of royal griffin knights led by Falstad Wildhammer, and hundreds of them are gearing up and screaming. An army of goat riders ready to fight.

These dwarves were annoyed at the fact that Grand Marshal Garithos did not let them enter the city to fight, but now, poor God, there is a fight here? They said that the war hammers in their hands were bigger than their heads, and they were already hungry and thirsty!

Behind the fire demons and humans and dwarven cavalry, there is also the queen's ranger guard of the best equipped Quel'Thalas high elves ready to go. They have already lined up behind the phalanx slightly away from the battlefield. The most elite shooters in the eastern kingdom can provide long-range sniper support for the charging paladins or goat knights at any time.

If we also count the dozens of fire eagles still flying in the sky and the more than one hundred dragon eagle shooters of the high elves, there is already a little Anne who is a demigod mage here in the Flame Alliance; The knight Dathrohan; the ancient survival hunter Shannox; the dwarf who can fly in the sky and fight on the ground can fight Falstad; the former Quel'Thalas ranger general and now the legendary ranger Sylva who is the queen of the high elves Nas.

Coupled with the words of those little-known fire demon lords, their large group of big boss-level heroes, and the most elite guards of the four countries with nearly 3,000 people, all of this is little Annie. What a shameful capital now!

She is very confident. Just now, whether it is the green-headed monster in the west, or the Naga and fish-headed people in the south, the combination of the two of them is probably not enough to fight against a group of fierce men like them!

Besides, there is still her 200,000 Alliance army on the Lordaeron battlefield opposite Lordaemir Lake! If she is in a hurry, at such a short distance, it is not a problem at all to open a few portals and get 30,000 to 50,000 troops!

"That green-headed monster with antlers on its head over there, didn't you just hit me with arrows? Huh? Why don't you dare to speak now? Are you still going crazy?"

Little Annie has deep resentment towards this deer-like green-headed monster!

Just now, it was this green-headed monster who didn't agree with each other, and directly ordered his bow and arrow troops to disperse and shoot her, so that she didn't dare to approach the ground casually!

"Also, that half-demon over there! Are you with the Burning Legion? Now you come to my house casually and hold such a dangerous ceremony. Have you obtained my consent?"

Looking at the ceremony that was still running on the opposite side, Annie's face darkened. If she didn't stop for a while, she would throw a big fireball over it!

"Wait... are you humans? And dwarves?"

Green...Green-headed monster? Is she... talking about them night elves?

Well, as much as Malfurion wanted to yell at that little girl, not all night elves are green-headed! But after thinking about it for a while, he still took a deep breath, and decided not to have the same knowledge as this little human girl!

Now, after seeing the situation start to take a turn for the worse, Malfurion was also a little timid. He never imagined that this little human boy riding a fire hawk would be so tough in the backstage? Now it made him dare not say a half word of cruelty.

After all, they only brought less than 5,000 troops when they came to the Eastern Kingdom this time, and there were still more than 1,000 troops staying at the camp at the beach landing site on the west. These are all the troops that can be dispatched.

"Please let me say something, humans, I think, is there some misunderstanding between us? I think..."

After seeing the humans and dwarves standing next to the fire elemental creatures, Malfurion immediately tried to explain.

Because, on Kalimdor, the night elves and humans got along very well. They not only resisted the Burning Legion together, but also initially reached an alliance intention. They plan to formally meet and form an alliance soon, ready to deal with the threat of tribes composed of tauren, trolls and orcs.

"terribly sorry!"

Seeing that the green-headed monster that Queen Anne was talking about seemed to be talking to him, Dathrohan raised his hand brutally and interrupted the other person's words.

"The one you just attacked was the leader of our Flame Alliance, the Queen of the Flame Kingdom, Her Majesty Anne Hastur! Therefore, we, the Kingdom of Lordaeron, reserve the right to counterattack you with force!"

Paladin Dathrohan replied coldly to the green-haired antler freak who came out to speak, without giving him any face.

Anyway, he, Dathrohan, doesn't recognize these weirdos, so what kind of thing is he running out to get close to him? Are you timid when you see that you are more powerful here? Where did the prestige just now go?

On the way here, he, Dathrohan, could clearly see that those densely packed bows and arrows forced Queen Anne to raise her height. The rain of arrows is definitely the rhythm of hitting to death! How could this be a misunderstanding? Do not make jokes!

Although their Flame Alliance was founded not long ago, almost all of the four countries were rebuilt after the disaster, and the other three countries owed a lot of favor to the Flame Kingdom. But now, they are united in adversity, like a closely linked federal kingdom, and the current leader is like the common king of their four countries!

These people, coming here now, dare to attack the co-lords of their four countries. How could this be a misunderstanding? Anyway, he, Dathrohan, would never let it go!

Or Queen Anne is right, these bastards dare to come to their territory of the Flame Alliance to make trouble, have they obtained the consent of their Flame Alliance? Still casually marching here in the Silverpine Forest, Dathrohan didn't remember that the other party had signed a military right of passage with Lordaeron!

Besides, these bastards dared to beat their cute master into such a mess just now because of the large number of people, that is not to give them the face of the Kingdom of Lordaeron, and not to give the face of Lordaeron, that is to say hello to him Sohan can't make it through!

Therefore, Dathrohan has already made up his mind, as long as Queen Anne gives the order, he will swing the hammer behind his back and order the paladins to charge over and fuck him! They failed to participate in the liberation battle of Lordaeron's royal city, so they must take revenge on these bastards in front of them!

"The Kingdom of Lordaeron? Isn't the Kingdom of Lordaeron... already destroyed?"

When Malfurion heard Dathrohan's words, he asked in surprise.

According to the information he got from the human beings in Theramore, the Kingdom of Lordaeron should have been destroyed. Why is another Lordaeron popping up here? This made Malfurion very puzzled. Could it be that the information Theramore gave him was wrong? Or is it obsolete?

The bastard!

Hearing that the other party actually said that their Kingdom of Lordaeron was destroyed, Dathrohan was so angry that he grabbed the warhammer on his back fiercely, and while holding it tightly, his face also became ugly.

He has already decided, wait for a while, once the fight starts, he will give the green head monster a punishment stun first, and then, taking the opportunity to drive invincible, he will rush up and launch a holy storm to kill him Damn!

"I'm sorry, everyone of the Flame Alliance, we have no intention of being your enemy. We came here only to hunt down that fugitive over there."

After thinking about it, Malfurion decided not to worry about this issue for the time being, but to settle Illidan's matter first.

As everyone knows, his unintentional words just now have completely offended Paladin Dathrohan. The other party is now thinking about how to kill him as quickly as possible.

"That demon over there, his name is Illidan... he's performing a magical ritual that will destroy the entire planet of Azeroth... So, I think, we'd better stop our differences, Let him stop that ceremony first!"

Malfurion pointed to Illidan in the south and the magic circle behind him that was still performing the ceremony and said, this matter is the most important thing, he can discuss everything, but first destroy that dangerous thing Let's talk!

"Don't listen to his nonsense, this ceremony of mine is to destroy Icecrown Glacier! And on Icecrown Glacier, there is the mastermind behind the undead Scourge you are attacking, the lair of the Lich King Ner'zhul !"

Seeing his elder brother Malfurion blame him, Illidan retorted loudly, unwilling to be lonely.

"In a sense, my purpose is the same as that of your Flame Alliance. I also want to destroy the natural disaster of the undead!"

Illidan knew a little more than Malfurion and the others. Before that, their Naga and murlocs had already scouted the north, across the huge Lordamere Lake, the coalition forces of the so-called Flame Alliance, but there was Countless powerful troops, they are besieging the city of the undead!

Therefore, Illidan does not intend to have any conflicts with humans, dwarves or flame creatures here. Once they send the army over, it will only make themselves unhappy!

"Illidan, you let me down..."

"I told you a long time ago that magic is a very dangerous thing! And what you are using now is even crazier! So, Illidan, stop now before it's too late! Otherwise, the whole The earth, the entire planet of Azeroth, will be torn to pieces by your evil ritual!"

Malfurion wished he could rush over right now, destroy those evil Naga and murlocs, and then directly destroy the terrifying magic circle that was still in operation.

But... the flame coalition forces standing between them were too powerful, so he had to restrain the troops while trying to persuade the other side.

Now, in no more than a second, the damage to the earth from that ritual will increase by one point, and there is not much time left for them... He, Malfurion, only hates himself, why didn't he bring more troops over, and made the Now, he could only watch Illidan continue to hurt the ground under his feet, but he didn't dare to forcefully stop him.

"Magic is all evil? How ridiculous!"

Behind the army of the Flame Alliance, there was a crisp sound suddenly, and then, a slender female elf dressed as a ranger, riding a white chocobo, trotted to the front row of the alliance team.

"Hmph! Ten thousand years have passed, and it seems that what the book says is true. You low-level elves are still so stubborn and ignorant!"

At this time, Cirvanas, who was dressed in hard clothes, walked to the front from the back of the line, and looked at Malfurion who was about to continue explaining with a sneer.

It is said that the high elves were expelled from Kalimdor by these damn low-level people. She, Sylvanas, has read a lot of Quel'Thalas's historical records, so she knows these things very well. !

"Are you... a descendant of those upper classes?"

Soon, Malfurion was surprised to see the shadows of those highborne who were expelled by them back then from Cirvanas.

No mistake, although her skin color has changed a little, and her figure has become smaller, but the outlines of those high elves can still be seen.

Moreover, Malfurion can still feel the strong magic remnants on her body. It seems that after so many years, these upper classes are still stubborn, and they are still studying those evil magics!

"Okay! Stop arguing!"

Little Annie originally wanted to continue playing with these people for a while, but... she just wanted to feel a strong wave of magic from Lordaeron in the north. It seemed that someone opened a large portal in the city of Lordaeron ?

Could it be that those undead villains are going to run away? In that case, she couldn't stay here for too long, Annie decided that she must go back as soon as possible to see if she was taken advantage of by that undead knight?

"Now! I declare: You green-headed monsters, get out of our territory immediately! Also, that half-demon over there, I don't care if you are targeting the undead or the earth, I will give you ten seconds to Stop your ritual immediately!"

After finishing speaking, Annie immediately began to gather and grab a huge fireball in her hands, and the fire hawk lord Celia also began to lift little Annie into the air.

"Otherwise! I'll beat you to death!"

The fireball in Little Annie's hand began to grow bigger and bigger, and the energy inside it also began to become more and more explosive. It seemed that in the next second, she would throw the fireball towards a certain group of people below. .

After hearing Little Annie's words, the paladins, dwarf knights, and the fire demon royal guards below also picked up their warhammers, two-handed broadswords or other war blades, and Chief Shannox also It is rare to summon its two pets, Ripper and Crazy Face, which have not been used for a long time. These two pitiful vicious dogs of the lord level were grabbed by the neck of the bear Tibbers in the Firelands. After holding it in his hand and beating it, he was never summoned again.

Now, the battle in the north of Lordaeron is coming to an end and is about to end, and when the Flame Alliance is about to usher in a great victory over the undead Scourge, here in Dalaran in the south, the night elves, the Naga and the Flame Alliance's three-party melee, but about to be triggered.

Because little Anne had just given her ultimatum to these two groups of villains because she was worried about the battle situation in Lordaeron to the north. Now, all she needed to do was to see how the two groups of people below would deal with it.
