Azeroth Trail of Light

Chapter 10 9. Crossroads

Andorhal, on the left side of the Lake Myrondal Bridge.

"Kel'Thuzad! You will pay for what you have done!"

Arthas, who was fully armed, swung his warhammer and knocked down the ghoul standing in front of him with one blow. The blazing holy light in his palm burned the dirty and evil monster to ashes.

He bravely charged towards Kel'Thuzad alone, like a sharp sword drawn from its sheath, but around him, countless undead waved their arms, forming a terrifying "human wall".

These haggard undead were still living residents of Andorhal this morning, but at noon, with the sudden increase of the fog that had enveloped Andorhal since the beginning of this year, in just three hours, Andorhal From the largest city in eastern Lordaeron, it became a real hell.

Alsace brought nearly a hundred paladins with him, which was already the entire force drawn from the Crusader fortress.

After receiving the tracking information from his most trusted guard captain, Farric, and discovering that Kel'Thuzad had returned to Andorhal from Brill, Arthas set off immediately with all the paladins.

Yes, Jaina lied to Dick. The eldest lady didn't tell Alsace about her and Dick's track at all, but just stole Alsace's badge. This bold behavior made the eldest lady almost lose her life.

But right now, Alsace doesn't know that much, he only knows that Jaina took Dick and left the Crusader Fortress, but he doesn't have the heart to find that playful mage lady, he has more important things to do , he wants to rescue his people. As the future king of Lordaeron, Alsace is definitely a qualified ruler in this regard.

But this is also his greatest weakness, and unfortunately, this weakness has been discovered by the black hands behind the scenes.

Kel'Thuzad leaned on his staff and "cursed", and stood expressionlessly in the square in the center of Andorhal, watching Alsace struggling to "charge" among the undead crowd, a trace of disdain flashed in the corner of his eyes.

He didn't understand why the great Lich King chose this weak paladin as his left hand. He could easily kill this paladin with only five points of strength. The mage didn't quite understand this stupid prince, why? I have to "die" in this guy's hands.

But Kel'Thuzad is a very serious person. Since the omnipotent master asked him to do so, in order to gain more powerful power and study deeper magic, he did so.

Kel'Thuzad's fingers behind his back moved slightly, and the undead who had been tightly blocking Alsace suddenly revealed a gap.

"Holy Light, give me strength!"

Alsace seized this opportunity keenly, raised the warhammer in his hand high, and called for the power of the Holy Light. After being infused with energy from an unknown being, Alsace's whole body began to surge with pure golden light. Light of justice.

To the undead, this holy light is like sunlight melting ice.

With a light sweep of the warhammer wrapped in the holy light, the gap in front of Alsace became much wider again, and the undead on both sides, within the barrier formed by the holy light, howled and turned into gray ashes.

"Your punishment is coming! Kel'Thuzad!"

Alsace bravely brandished his warhammer and charged in front of Kel'Thuzad's "complexion changed drastically". With a light tap, the black-red staff in Kel'Thuzad's hand flew aside. Before the second blow came, Ker'Thuzad Sugad spit out a mouthful of blood. This action also dissipated the magic light he was preparing.

Seeing this scene, His Royal Highness had a look of excitement in his eyes.

He's not an idiot who doesn't know anything about magic. This is obviously because Kel'Thuzad's magic power has been restrained by manipulating these armies of undead, so that after being broken by himself, he can't even defend and can only grit his teeth. The control of these undead was disconnected.

He is going to run!

How could Alsace allow Kel'Thuzad to escape? He swung the round hammer in his hand and smashed it towards the mage's body. This blow hit Kel'Thuzad's back, causing the mage to stagger. Sugad fell to the ground in embarrassment, he shouted at Alsace in "horrified\

,""Don't be complacent! Prince, in Stratholme, my allies are creating an army capable of destroying the entire country, you...you will all be... ah!!!"

Before Kel'Thuzad's wailing was over, his heart was completely smashed by the hammer again, and the black blood dyed the surrounding land black. Alsace glanced at Kel'Thuzad's body with disgust, He raised his head again and looked around at the undead who had returned to the form of wandering soldiers and scattered warriors because no one was controlling them.

Reminiscent of Kel'Thuzad's last words, Alsace's resolute face showed a trace of fatigue, but then it turned into firmness, and the stubborn gaze made people feel chills.

"Farric, burn this body, take the ashes, and let's go to Stratholme!"

Falric held a large shield in one hand and a battle ax in the other. He turned around and chopped down a ghoul that was trying to sneak up, and then quickly ran to Alsace. It was filled by another paladin.

"Your Highness, do you want to take a day off, you look very tired!"

"No! Go directly to Stratholme, my people are suffering, and I will rescue them from the darkness!"

Alsace's voice was very firm. With his current eyes, no one would doubt his words. The surrounding paladins all showed firm eyes when they heard the words. Among the undead, with the holy light, a road of ashes was torn apart.

Arthas walked in the front wielding his warhammer himself, Falric, who was carrying a small cloth bag, walked behind, and the other paladins followed behind him.

This group of people was like warriors who challenged death. Wherever they went, they were filled with purified undead. The warriors rushed into the mist silently, and soon disappeared.

This was supposed to be an epic story of justice defeating evil and warriors slaying the fallen, but to Dick and Jaina who stood by the highest tower in Andorhal, it seemed like a joke! Like a bad stage play.

"That arrogant idiot, he didn't even think about it. Is an archmage so easy to deal with?"

Jaina cursed bitterly, but her body had just been tortured by the four-fold curse, and this mage lady was not the leader of the mage ten years later, so even if the curse came into contact, she The current body is still very weak, and even needs to use a staff to move.

But this weakness intensified her anger.

"Stratholme, that's clearly Kel'Thuzad's trap! He actually jumped into it without looking back! It's really... ahem."

The anger affected her fragile body, coupled with the heavy chains on her hands and feet, her weak figure almost fell to the ground.

Dick hurried up to help her, but was opened by the mage lady. In Jaina's eyes, she made no secret of her disgust and contempt for Dick.

"Go away! You humble coward!"

Dick's outstretched hand stopped in place. Although he tried his best to conceal it, the emblem of the Damned Sect on the back of his left hand was still so conspicuous.

He pursed his lips, trying to persuade himself not to pay attention to Jaina's misunderstanding, but seeing the eyes of the eldest lady who wanted to kill him, Dick finally hid the worry in his eyes deep in his eyes, he finally Glancing at the stubborn Jaina, he turned and left the defenseless top floor.

"Go and find your dark master! Thank him like a dog for saving your life!"

The body that went downstairs stiffened for a moment, but Dick quickly recovered, and he went straight down the stairs, leaving Jaina alone on the top floor.

Jaina's rare ferocious expression disappeared. Leaning on her staff, she slowly squatted down, leaning against the dirty corner, trying to curl her body into a ball, wrapping her arms around her knees, Bury his head down.

A few seconds later, the sound of sobbing sounded in the dim space on the top floor.

"I'm sorry... woo... sorry... Alsace... if it wasn't for me..."

The sound was very weak, but it was enough for Dick, who was quietly hiding in the darkness beside him, to hear it. When the name "Alsace" reached his ears, Dick fell silent.

He hid in the dark, looking at the sobbing young lady, seeing the always proud young lady showing such fear for the first time, as delicate as a little girl who is afraid of thunder.

He walked away quietly, this time, he didn't look back.

"I'm sorry...Dick...if I didn't pull you out...I shouldn't blame you...sorry..."

It's a pity... there was no one around the corner.

Below the tower, Dick sat lazily on a chair, staring blankly at the spider web on the top of the dark tower, watching the black spider the size of a fist struggling under the influence of natural disasters and plagues. With a web, he once wanted to be a spider, cast his web all over the world, and watch the ugly appearance of those prey trying their best to break through the web.

But just yesterday and today, he saw two idiots who thought they were hunters crash into a larger net. Although they wanted to break through the net and escape, their strength was not even qualified to break through the spider web .

Wisdom, memory, these things are often worthless like foam in water when faced with real power.

Power! strength…

"Oh, look who this is...a little mouse thinking about life, what an irony."

A guy that Dick had never seen before walked in through the gate and sat directly on the seat in front of Dick. Although his appearance and even his voice changed drastically, Dick knew that there was something hidden in this body. It was Kel'Thuzad who had just died, that clumsy male number two.

Dick looked at him, looked at him seriously,

"Why do you find it ironic?"

Kel'Thuzad also looked at him with those eyes that had changed greatly. This was the first time that this proud fallen mage spoke to Dick with an equal attitude. Mysterious smile.

"Because I found out that a humble commoner can see the world more thoroughly than a noble prince. I just checked all your whereabouts. You came to Andorhal a month ago. You rescued a girl from a small village in the village, didn't you? You also persuaded the owner of Gaelon Farm to throw away our plague steamer, but that idiot didn't listen to you."

"So I'm curious, how did you figure out the role of the plague steamer before all this happened? Why didn't you report this discovery to the king? Isn't this the responsibility of the sheriff?"

After a lapse of 5 days, Dick showed his iconic squinting smile again,

"you guess?"

"boom!"

Dick paid the price for his frivolity. Although he changed his body, Kel'Thuzad's control over the magic power did not decrease. With a "Lich Palm", Dick was turned twice in the air, and then fell to the ground.

"Brother Tirisfal has sent back news that we are leaving tonight, and, little mouse, you better be honest! You may not be afraid of death, but you have to think about others, right?"

Come to collect, come to recommend, as long as the contract is sent, it will be updated twice a day. Give me some confidence, brothers! !
