My Frostmourne can't be so cute

Kel'Thuzad, who had turned into a lich, was not entangled. Arthas was no longer subordinate to the Lich King Ner'zhul.After taking refuge in Ner'zhul, Kel'Thuzad had been fighting for the Scourge, but this was not the result he wanted.After having a conversation with the distraught Arthas, Kel'Thuzad successfully persuaded Arthas and gave him the motivation to continue to live-revenge on the Lich King Ner'zhul, and use the resurrection of those who died People, to remedy their faults.

Except for the episode where Sylvanas shot an arrow out of control, Alsace and Kel'Thuzad's plan went smoothly.Under Frostmourne's soul-controlling ability, which was almost a god, Arthas replaced Ner'zhul and became the new Lich King.Kel'Thuzad also soon transferred the "City of the Sky" Naxxramas to Northrend, completely abandoning the Eastern Kingdoms, and concentrated on working with Arthas to study the death that can truly break the boundary between the living and the dead. Spiritual magic.

In the necromantic magic that Arthas and Kel'Thuzad mastered, there are many ways for the undead to stand up again to have memories of their lives, but they all have various limitations.Lich may be the perfect one of these methods, but this method of resurrection is limited to those wizards who use arcane magic.

The banshee represented by Sylvanas is another direction.However, this method is not suitable for other races. Not all races are like high elves. Even tribes who cannot use magic have a natural affinity for arcane arts.

Before Ner'zhul became the Lich King, his disciple, Gul'dan, used an extremely filthy / filthy necromantic spell to fill the corpses of human warriors with the souls of dead orc warlocks. , Created a magic warrior with independent consciousness-death knight.The Tyrone Gorefiend that Kel'Thuzad had just met at Dunhold Castle was the first death knight in history.

Although this method has its own limitations, after countless failures, Arthas and Kel'Thuzad finally made progress. They successfully summoned the human soul back to the original body and created a brand new Death knight.This kind of death knight was regarded as hope by Arthas and Kel'Thuzad, because in this process, the dead do not necessarily have to be able to use spells, so this method may be extended to all the dead.

However, behind the huge hopes there are often abysses that cannot be crossed.Alsace and Kel'Thuzad soon discovered that although the limitations of this method were smaller, it was not always successful.The conclusion drawn after many experiments made Arthas and Kel'Thuzad feel desperate-to be resurrected as a death knight, he must be a warrior or a paladin before his death.Only by possessing a strong physique and a persevering soul at the same time can we have memories of the past after being resurrected.

Arthas can still clearly remember the actions of Kel'Thuzad after discovering this conclusion-although as a lich, Kel'Thuzad's head has completely turned into a skeleton, but the pair originally exudes blood red Shining eyes dimmed in an instant.

"No...no..." Kel'Thuzad took a few steps back from the chain-entangled body, his sharp voice was full of despair, and he placed his hands on his chest. Arthas knew that there was a small Small iron box.Every lich will have a soul-binding box, which is an essential item for their rebirth.However, what Kel'Thuzad had in his chest was not his own soul-binding casket, but the ashes of the Lich's own parents.

Kel'Thuzad was born in a farmer's house in Hillsbrad Hills. His parents are his only son.When Kel'Thuzad was allowed to learn spells in Dalaran because of his outstanding talent, he was still a child.From the beginning, Kel'Thuzad's life in Dalaran was extremely shining, and his outstanding talent allowed him to break away from his apprenticeship and become a mage in just a few years.

When Kel'Thuzad was twenty-seven years old, he became an alternate member of the Kirin Tor Council of Six. It was Jaina's teacher, Archmage Antonidas who nominated him.However, just as Kel'Thuzad was proud of the spring breeze, bad news came from his hometown. His father died suddenly of illness and his mother left the world because of excessive grief.

Chapter 96: Many Old People in Nanhai Town

All this caused Kel'Thuzad to collapse. He, who had a promising future, finally began to get involved with necromantic magic. He stubbornly kept his parents’ urn, even after he became a lich, just hope that one day , Can use his knowledge to bring those two dearest people back to the world from the dead.

The experiment that lasted for several years was nothing but joy. Kel'Thuzad finally chose to give up and returned to his "Sky City" Naxxramas, where he was eventually killed by the Argent Crusade.Arthas didn't know if Kel'Thuzad's soulbound box was also destroyed at the same time, but even if not, maybe Kel'Thuzad didn't plan to resurrect again.

In fact, Alsace at the time was in almost the same mood. After learning that it was impossible to resurrect his father, teacher and subjects, Arthas either wandered around Northrend or stayed on the top of Icecrown Citadel. There was nothing to do, and even a large number of death knights broke out of their control, formed the Knights of the Black Blade, and, together with the silver Northern Expedition led by Tirion Fording, had no interest in interfering in the matter of the Trial of Ashes.

Arthas broke away from the memories of the past, feeling bitter and gratified-since Frostmourne gave him a chance to start again, he must not let the painful plot continue.Now, hold Kel'Thuzad temporarily and wait for the orcs to repel before dealing with his affairs.Arthas believed that as long as Kel'Thuzad could continue to study, no matter whether he succeeded or not, he would not embark on the path of refuge in Ner'zhul.

At this moment, Mograine tapped the wall of the carriage and said: "Your Royal Highness, Nanhai Town is here." Just as Arthas lifted his head from Frostmourne's thigh, he heard the carriage outside. There was a voice of interrogation: "Who? What's in the carriage? No matter whose carriage is, this place is now under military control. You can't get in."

Hearing this, it should be the peripheral sentry in Nanhai Town, asking about Mograine's identity.Alsace shook his head, got up, opened the door of the carriage, and got out of the carriage. If you don’t know Mograine, it must be Admiral Dalin’s men. Alsace decided to negotiate with them himself. So as to avoid any conflict between Mograine and them.

Although it was night, the interior of Nanhai Town was still brightly lit.Uther stood in front of the second line of defense that was rushed out by the seamen and the paladins, and loudly commanded his subordinates to lift the large ballistas unloaded from the North Sea pirate ship to the bell tower and the roofs of the few remaining houses.

When Uther arrived in Nanhai Town, it was like a pot of porridge.The most authoritative commander, Admiral Dai Lin, shut himself in the room and accompanied his dying son.A large number of seamen from the Union army stayed in the town with nothing to do, while the original residents of the town dragged their families to flee inland.

Uther came to Dalin's room first and checked Drake's injuries.After discovering that he was powerless, Uther could only apologize and comfort Dai Lin, and accepted the defense job of Nanhai Town non-stop.Uther first restored the seamen, sent them to help the residents of the town to leave quickly, and then gave the task of demolishing houses and building fortifications.

After nearly an afternoon of hard work, Uther finally succeeded in building three simple fortifications in Nanhai Town. Of course, these simple facilities must not last more than 15 minutes in front of the flames of the red dragon falling from the sky. Look at Drake lying in the house, his whole body burnt to charcoal.

Archmage Antonidas stood beside Uther, silent.The leader of the Kirin Tor Council has just notified all the battle mages and is ready to face the invasion of the red dragon.However, the Archmage Antonidas did not have any confidence to win, because even if the wizards could repel the attack of the red dragon, there was no good way to protect these defensive facilities in Nanhai Town from being burned.

Although neither the Archmage Antonidas nor Uther knew, how the Archmage Krasus traveled back and forth between Balladin Bay and Nanhai Town in a short period of time.After all, the orcs have destroyed all the portal magic circles in the area they occupy.

But since the Archmage Krasus brought back the news that the orc fleet was heading here, Archmage Antonidas and Uther did not dare to neglect, because, taking advantage of the darkness to land in a civilian harbour under the cover of a red dragon, it is indeed It is easier to attack during the day.

At this moment, Uther heard his disciple's voice: "Master Uther!" The Paladin turned his head in amazement, and saw Arthas walking towards this side, followed by Mograine and Wen. Resa Windrunner, and a gorgeous girl who has never seen her before.

"Alsace? Why are you here?" Uther asked suspiciously.Arthas told him about his father and told him to go to Nanhai Town. However, because the little prince hadn't figured out how to explain Frostmourne to Uther, he concealed Frostmourne. Things that can help.

Uther shook his head helplessly. Because of Alsace's concealment, he had no way of knowing King Terenas's true thoughts. He just felt that sending a ten-year-old prince to the battlefield would be somewhat Too anxious.After all, Uther himself did not have the confidence to defend Nanhai Town.The main reason why the Knights of the Silver Hand and the seamen of the Alliance Navy stay here is to buy time for the farmers on the Hillsbrad Hills to retreat.

But now that Arthas has arrived, Uther had no choice but to say: "Well, Arthas. However, the information we have is that the orc fleet is about to land here, and the red dragon may also attack here at any time. Launch an attack. You'd better go behind the third line of defense. I will send a team of Paladins to protect your safety. If the war goes unfavorable, Mograine, you immediately take Arthas to retreat."

Mograine nodded, but there was still no expression on his face—in fact, Uther did not need to order these things. As the original Lordaeron royal guard, as long as Mograine was still there, he would never let it. A member of the royal family suffered a little bit of harm in front of him.

Arthas turned his gaze to the Archmage Antonidas standing beside Uther, who was also looking at him with interest.Arthas was no stranger to this Jaina's teacher.In the original time stream, Arthas and Kel'Thuzad, controlled by the Lich King Ner'zhul, brought Archimonde to the world of Azeroth in order to get the Book of Medivh, and once defeated Dalaran. The defense line snatched this treasure from the Archmage Antonidas and killed the leader of the Kirin Tor Council.

Chapter 97—The Second Meeting of Fate

The Archmage Antonidas naturally did not know that the little prince in front of him was the terminator of his own life in another period of time.Compared to Arthas itself, the Archmage Antonidas is more interested in the evil spirit in the mouth of the Mage Khadgar, and also what the Archmage Krasus said, the "savior of Azeroth" .

Therefore, the Archmage Antonidas only paid a little attention to Arthas, and then turned his gaze to the gorgeous girl—a human appearance with long black hair and a floral skirt with blue background, talking to the Mage Khadgar and Krasu. The description of the Master of Stanislas exactly matched.Frostmourne noticed that the white-bearded old man stared at him fiercely, and made a grimace at the Archmage Antonidas while Arthas couldn't see it.

Frostmourne also knew the Archmage Antonidas. Rather, the Little Demon Sword can wake up from a deep sleep. The leader of the Kirin Tor Council, the powerful and determined soul, played the role of the last straw. .The Archmage Antonidas didn’t know these things that hadn’t happened yet, and they couldn’t happen in the future. He just felt that Frostmourne was no different from those innocent and lively girls. I don’t know why the Archmage Krasus said that this is a rescue. A god-level figure in the world of Azeroth.

At this moment, a little girl hurriedly ran out of the bell tower holding the skirt of her robe, looked around, and found the Archmage Antonidas, and immediately rushed over here, running while running. Weeping: "Teacher Antonidas, go and persuade my father! He... he wants to kill Brother Drake!"

Naturally, this little girl was Jaina, and she threw herself straight into the arms of Archmage Antonidas, her nose and tears wiped her teacher.Archmage Antonidas didn't have time to care if his mage robes were soiled, but anxiously asked: "Jaina, I'm going up here, don't cry, tell me what happened."

After the Archmage Antonidas finished speaking, he took Jaina and a flash spell came to the clock tower. However, on the spiral staircase, there was no way to use this spatial spell. The Archmage Antonidas could only be used one step at a time. Climbing up the steps, Jaina tried to follow behind, wiping her eyes and twitching her nose.

The Archmage Antonidas is old after all, and the wizards have always been weak, so the speed of climbing such a spiral ladder is not very fast.In a short while, Arthas brought Mograine, Vereeza, and Frostmourne from behind. Although Uther was concerned about King Daeling’s condition, there was still a lot of military affairs waiting for him. Let Arthas come and take a look on his behalf. After all, he was a distinguished disciple, and it was more convenient to speak in front of King Dalin, and Arthas had shown sufficient agility even though he was young.

Jaina didn’t notice that someone rushed up behind her. Although she wanted to explain the whole story to her teacher, the little girl might be too frightened and sad. For a while, she couldn’t say anything completely except sobbing. .The Archmage Antonidas rushed outside the room on the third floor of the clock tower, and found that the two seamen who had been guarding the door were gone. The door was wide open, and there was a noise from inside.

The Archmage Antonidas quickly walked into the room, and Admiral Dai Lin, who was being held tightly by his two subordinates, prevented him from approaching the bed.Dalin's hair was loose, his hands danced in the air, roaring like crazy: "Loswich, Grak, you let me go! I can't let Drake continue to suffer like this! At least, give him a happy ..."

Before he finished speaking, Dai Lin's tears rolled down again-as a father who loves his son, but now he wants to send his son to death with his own hands, what kind of sadness and anger is that?Then Arthas, who entered the room, heard Dai Lin's words, and walked a few steps forward, looking at the...person lying on the bed?

The reason for this question was that even as the Lich King, Arthas had never seen such a miserable sight.The person on the bed is probably the Drake brother Jaina said. He closed his eyes and may have fainted. The bandage wrapped around his body was torn apart a lot by him for unknown reasons, revealing a large area of ​​scorched black. Burning the skin, crimson blood poured out, spreading on the snow-white sheets.

A few steps closer, Arthas suddenly remembered that he seemed to have seen this kind of burn."The breath of the red dragon?" the little prince asked, frowning.Dai Lin, who was fighting with his two subordinates, was stunned when he heard these words, seeming to be surprised by the child's eyesight.

At this moment, Jaina rushed in front of Dai Lin, crying loudly: "Woo...Father, you can't kill brother Drake...Woo..." The daughter's cry seemed to make Dai Lin calmed down, or his previous crazy actions were just venting when desperate.

In short, Admiral Dai Lin slowly stopped struggling and patted his two subordinates on the shoulders to signal that they were all right.Loswich and Grak let go of their friends with some hesitation, and Dalin put Jaina in his arms, holding back his tears and comforting his daughter.

Arthas cast his gaze to Frostmourne, and the little magic sword seemed to know what the owner was thinking, and snorted a little dissatisfied.Arthas smiled wryly, quickly returned to normal, came to Dailin and Jaina, and after attracting the admiral's attention, he saluted him and began to introduce his identity.

"King Daelin, I am the son of Terenas Menethil, the prince of Lordaeron, Arthas. On behalf of my father, I express my condolences for the loss of your fleet. At the same time, for You and your family’s misfortunes...sympathize. But, my teacher, the head of the Knights of the Silver Hand, Uther Lightbringer, I hope you can cheer up. The orc fleet is about to arrive here. The red dragons destroyed by your fleet may also attack at any time. The defense of Nanhai Town needs your strength."

King Daelin hesitated. He didn't want to go anywhere now, just wanted to be with his son, Drake; however, he desperately wanted to avenge the orcs and the orcs who destroyed his fleet and caused him to lose his son. Red dragons.Just when the Admiral was hesitant, Jaina lifted her head from her father's arms and suddenly whispered: "It's you! Are you not a mage apprentice in Dalaran? How did you become a member of the Kingdom of Lordaeron? Prince?"

Chapter 98 Frostmourne is awkward again

Arthas pretended to give a dry cough, and said, "Well... yes, I am not an apprentice to a mage, but I once learned some potions and alchemy with Teacher Khadgar, and I was considered his disciple. That night. , I went to see Teacher Khadgar."

Jaina blinked, tears welling up again.The little girl didn't care about Arthas, whether he was a mage apprentice or a prince, she just hoped that her brother would not leave her.But this is undoubtedly a luxury.Daelin turned his head and looked at Drake who was lying on the bed. Although he had fainted but was still twitching, he finally shook his head and said, "Prince Arthas, I'm sorry I can't fight now. Drake... his time may be running out. I hope you can understand how an old father feels now, I..."

Before Dalin finished speaking, he was interrupted by Alsace: "King Dalin, it is like this. I think maybe I can treat your son." As soon as Alsace said, the room was full. Everyone was startled. Dai Lin looked like someone falling into the water, suddenly grabbing a plank, loosened Jaina, stepped forward to Arthas, and firmly grasped the little prince's shoulder: "You... What you said is true?"

Although he has fallen from the top of the mountain of hope countless times, Dai Lin is still willing to believe in everything that is beneficial to his son, Drake-people are often like this, preferring to believe what he wants to believe, even if it is a mirror image.This is indeed the fragility of mankind, but it cannot be denied. This is also the reason why mankind can always find a way to overcome obstacles in difficult situations.

Jaina also ran to Arthas, sniffed, and said in surprise, "Really? Can you cure Drake brother?" The light blue eyes were full of hope.Staying behind Alsace, Mograine squeezed over without saying a word, took the arm of King Dalin, and said unceremoniously: "King Dalin, I understand your feelings, but please Let go of His Royal Highness Prince Alsace first."

Dai Lin realized that his strength was too big for a child.He quickly retracted his hand and repeated it again: "Prince Arthas, what you said is true? Do you really have a way to heal my son?" Arthas rubbed his painful shoulder, grinning. He grinned and said, "Well... this lady who came with me has a special identity. She knows many magical spells and can heal your son."

Dai Lin quickly turned his gaze to the dark-haired girl Alsace was referring to, but Frostmourne snorted and turned her head away-she didn't want to care about the life and death of the "bandage man" on the bed, after all, his sister, Is his biggest love rival, Jaina!Frostmourne even secretly cursed, why didn't the red dragon grill Jaina's family into steaks!

Knowing that Frostmourne was awkward, Arthas said to Dalin: "Well, King Dalin, you all leave this room first, I persuade Xiaoshuang... Madam, give us ten minutes, whatever Whether you can cure your son, there should be an answer."

Dalin hesitated. At this time, the Archmage Antonidas, who had not said anything, said: "In this case, King Dalin, let them give it a try. As far as I know, this lady really has a magical command. The spell.” Archmage Antonidas also wanted to see what magical powers the saviour hero respected by the Archmage Krasus and the terrifying evil spirit that the Mage Khadgar feared had.

Dalin nodded, greeted his two subordinates and his daughter Jaina to leave the room, and did not say anything to Alsace. After all, he has basically recovered his sanity now, even if Alsace and the black-haired girl did not When the law cures his sons, Dai Lin will not resent them.
