Chapter 616 Fun Time(3/4)
is you.
We high elves will never forget this kindness today.
Don't push yourself too hard, just hold on for as long as you can.
If it really doesn't work, retreat to the port and I will order someone to leave a boat for you."
"Please don't be polite, I am just fulfilling the obligations of an ally and protecting the devout believers of the church in the city.
I believe that through the battle just now, you should have realized that the Sunwell cannot be defended.
Therefore, I suggest that you lead the people to take refuge at sea for a while, or directly go to Stranglethorn Valley for refuge through the portal.
Only in this way can we ensure that more people survive."
Zuo Si obviously saw that the king was still planning to retreat to the Sunwell to fight against the natural disaster, so he couldn't help but give another reminder.
"I will think about it……"
The King of Anastria nodded very perfunctorily.
From the look in his eyes that refused to admit defeat, it was easy to tell that he had no intention of listening to the advice and planned to lead a group of people back to the Sunwell to build a final defense.
After all, things like "the king dies for the country" are a very common thing in Azeroth, and it is also where the aristocratic spirit lies.
Whether it was Llane Wrynn, the king of the Kingdom of Stormwind, who refused to retreat, was assassinated by Garona during the fight against the orc invasion, or his son Varian personally cut off the heir until he died heroically, this is the spirit of nobility.
manifestation.
A king who abandons his country and people and runs away is no different from a coward or a coward in the eyes of people in this world.
Therefore, any king with some self-respect will eventually choose to end his life through a tragic battle when the country is destroyed, rather than fleeing.
But fortunately, the Anasterian king only took away some of the soldiers, mages and priests who were willing to continue fighting until death, and did not coerce the civilians to be buried with him.
He even deliberately gave his son an order to protect the people and prohibited Kael'thas from following the troops to the Sunwell for the final struggle.
There is no doubt that with the complete retreat of the high elves, Silvermoon City has actually fallen.
Although Zuo Si blocked the natural disaster army that launched a force attack from the front, he could not reach the small group of undead troops that entered the city through the tunnel and ran around.
The only good thing is that the population loss was not as heavy as in the original timeline. It was almost on the verge of annihilation. Many civilians successfully escaped with the help of ships and portals.
Looking at the large white sails raised in the harbor in the distance, Arthas, who had been silent for a long time, finally asked again: "Do you want to imitate Sylvanas and sacrifice yourself to save more lives?"
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! "Sacrifice yourself?
No, no, no, you seem to have misunderstood something.
I am standing here not to sacrifice myself, but to have enough confidence in my strength.
In addition, as a thank you for not taking advantage of this time to launch an attack, I decided to tell you a secret, a secret about the origin of the Lich King.
I wonder if you are interested in listening?"
Zuo Si pursed his lips, showing undisguised malice.
As the elves of Silvermoon City have basically evacuated, he has finally achieved most of his biggest goal on this trip, and the rest is time for him to have fun.
"Do you know the origin of the Lich King?"
Alsace's pale face showed an expression of extreme surprise.
Because so far, he himself doesn't know what the Lich King is, and many of his plans and ideas are still transmitted through Kel'Thuzad's ghost.
Zuo Si smiled and nodded: "That's right.
Not only do I know his origins, but also the fact that he is working for the Burning Legion to invade this world.
I can also tell you that the so-called Lich King was originally transformed from the soul of an old, cowardly orc shaman who had failed all his life.
His name is Ner'zhul, the sinner who personally pushed his people into the arms of the Burning Legion."
As these words blurted out, Frostmourne suddenly erupted into large swaths of frost and biting chill.
A powerful force surged directly towards Zuo Si, trying to pull the soul of this bold madman who had revealed the Lich King's biggest secret out of his body.
But unfortunately, no matter how strong this power was, it could not drag out anything related to the soul from the body in the end.
To be precise, there is no soul in this container at all.
The soul of the original owner of the body has been stuffed into the new body created by the cloning technique, and has started a new life in Stranglethorn Vale.
Zuo Si, on the other hand, only relied on a ray of consciousness to control his body, so there was no soul.
Therefore, the Lich King and even the Shadow Realm behind him have nothing to do with him.
Just like people who have nothing are the most terrifying unstable factors in society, people without souls can also walk sideways in Azeroth.
After a brief confrontation, Ner'zhul, who was far away on the Frozen Throne, quickly gathered his strength and began to use Frostmourne to urge Arthas to launch an attack quickly and kill this enemy who knew too many secrets.
But Arthas was obviously different from the other servants of the Lich King. He was the first death knight with the strongest sense of independence besides Sylvanas, so he didn't take action immediately, but frowned and continued.
Follow-up question: "You said that the Lich King is the orc shaman Ner'zhul. Is there any evidence?"
"I think Frostmourne's reaction just now is a good proof.
After all, most of the time it's not the lies that hurt the most, but the truth.
How about it, do you feel strange now?
After all, the Lich King, who is so powerful and omnipotent, is essentially just a despicable and cowardly clown, not even as good as the traitor Dar'khan Drasil.
At least the latter dare to do anything when fighting for their own interests.
The most important thing is that no matter how much he brags about himself, he is just a pawn of the Burning Legion, and his every move is monitored by the Dread Lords.
The seemingly powerful and invincible Scourge Legion is like a bug in front of its true master, and will be crushed to death easily."
With a wicked smile on his face, Zuo Si began to expose the Lich King in front of Sylvanas and Arthas.
How did Ner'zhul go from an old orc shaman that everyone hated to a Lich King who was regarded as a god by countless people?
The answer is to create a sense of mystery.
Since his soul and the Crown of Dominance are imprisoned in the ice of Northrend, he has no entity at all and communicates with the outside world entirely through powerful spiritual power.
This also means that Ner'zhul can use this hand to whisper in other people's ears like an ancient god, and deliberately impart some forbidden knowledge and psychic magic that have been instilled into his mind through spiritual power.
In this way, he can establish the image of an omnipotent god in the target's mind.
Even a smart man like Kel'Thuzad was fooled in the end, not to mention the rest of the people.
Therefore, in the eyes of many people in the Curse Sect, the Lich King is a god, a god in charge of forbidden magic and death.
So how can we destroy the worship and obedience of fanatical believers to God?
Of course, it was necessary to dig out all the dark history of his past and show the despicable, cowardly, timid, and indecisive old orc in front of everyone.
When the time comes when all the self-aware high-level undead in the Scourge begin to despise and resist Ner'zhul's control, it will be fun to watch.
After all, no matter how powerful the amplification power of the Helm of Dominance is, it cannot suppress the resistance of thousands of free wills at the same time.
"What are you still hesitating about? Kill him quickly!"
Frostmourne's roar like the cold wind kept ringing in his ears, urging Arthas to take action.
From that urgent tone, the Death Knight felt the Lich King's anger for the first time.
Similarly, he also realized that all the information just now was true.
It turns out that the master he has been serving turns out to be a despicable and ridiculous clown.
Not even the ghost of Kel'Thuzad standing by stood up to give a word of advice at this time.
The corners of Sylvanas' mouth raised crazily, with a mocking and sarcastic smile all over her face.
You don't need to ask to know that Zuo Si's words started to have an effect.
You must know that authority is often difficult to establish, but very easy to collapse.
The most important thing is that the local residents of Azeroth are born with a condescending contempt, disgust and hatred for the invading orcs, viewing them as savage and uncivilized beasts.
This is why Dai Lin showed no mercy at all when attacking the orc settlements.
Because when the orcs invaded this world, they were a group of beasts that couldn't communicate, didn't follow any rules, and didn't take prisoners.
No matter whether they are humans or poultry, all livestock will die wherever it passes.
Even the envoys sent will be sacrificed to the demons of the Burning Legion.
In addition, Kel'Thuzad, Arthas, Sylvanas and other high-level undead were all elites of their respective countries and races when they were alive.
They may be able to accept the control of a mysterious and omnipotent god, but they absolutely cannot accept the command of a despicable orc shaman.
Although these few people are not enough to form a resistance force at the moment, as long as the seeds of betrayal and suspicion are planted, it will not take long before it grows into a towering tree.
Finally, under Ner'zhul's repeated urging, Arthas finally wielded Frostmourne and charged, kicking off the battle.
boom!!!!!!!
When the two elemental energies of ice and fire collided, the entire magically reinforced city wall of Silver Moon City was torn apart instantly.
The closed door collapsed, and the shock wave destroyed all buildings within a hundred meters radius.
