Chapter 355 The Scary Watcher (14)
The rupture of the Frozen Throne not only affected Alsace, but also other undead.
As the power of the Lich King slowly drained, his control over all the undead in the world became weaker and weaker. Some undead with strong spiritual will began to use their own efforts to break free from the control of the Lich King.
This is not necessarily a good thing.
These undead are no longer humans or high elves, or any other original race. Their mentality has changed, and even their emotions have changed.
It is impossible for them to return to their family members, and some even have no family members, because their family members have also become undead.
These undead who had regained their freedom began to wander around.
Some undead are okay, unwilling to hurt their former compatriots, and some even choose to destroy themselves to end this eternal pain.
But there are still some undead, who began to hate the living, and even thought that they were another race, and began to kill the living.
This kind of thing will happen from time to time in the future.
The undead with freedom and self-awakening will be more terrifying than before.
They will hide, lurk, assassinate, and wander around the world, but they will be wiped out in the end.
Of course, there are still some undead who still uphold the philosophy and will of their lifetime and continue to fight against the Scourge.
Such as Thassarian and Koltira.
These two powerful death knights had been secretly resisting the control of the Lich King, and their conscience was still alive.
Their spiritual will is very strong, but because they were directly killed by Frostmourne, they are more controlled by the Lich King, and with their own strength, there is no way to break free from the control.
But not long ago, they had encountered some special undead, and one of them was a special person: Alonsus Faol.
Thassarian was once a soldier of Lordaeron, believed in the Holy Light, and had the honor of seeing Faol from a distance.Now that he saw Fao, he knelt down on the ground and confessed his mistakes in front of the former Archbishop of Shengguang: he killed many compatriots, including his mother.
Faol forgave him, Light forgave him.
Because Thassarian did not have the right to control himself, everything was being manipulated by the Lich King and Arthas, and he could do nothing.
It's not his fault, it's just his torture.
Later, with Faol's help, he and Koltira got rid of the Lich King's control at the same time, and helped Faol secretly search for the undead who also escaped the Lich King's control, or the undead who wanted to break free from the Lich King's control.
It's hard, it's rare, it's been ineffective.
But now, the Lich King's control is getting weaker and weaker, so they see an opportunity.
Thassarian and Koltira immediately worked secretly.
Especially when Arthas was ready to leave Gilneas for Northrend, they knew their opportunity had come.
If they are lucky, maybe they will get a large number of subordinates, and the number of "forsaken" will increase tenfold and a hundredfold.
Gilneas, undercurrents are raging.
…………
As Illidan cast the spell longer and longer, the ritual became more powerful.
Now it is no longer the Frozen Throne or the Icecrown Glacier trembling, even the entire Northrend continent is trembling, and it has also affected the Isle of Quel'Danas, which is the casting point, and the entire northern part of the Lordaeron continent.
There was fighting everywhere, and millions of people came out of the room, panicking, thinking that a major earthquake had started.
Fortunately, the magnitude of the shock was not large, and even the worst dilapidated buildings could not collapse. People calmed down quickly, and their fear gradually disappeared. They gathered in twos and threes to discuss where the earthquake came from.
But Silvermoon City is different.
It was so close to the Isle of Quel'Danas that the high elves could even clearly see the building shaking.
Cirvanas stood at the highest point of the Sunstrider Court, frowning slightly.
It is impossible for an earthquake of this magnitude to destroy Silvermoon City, which is protected by magic power, but she is still worried because the epicenter seems to be in the north, on the Isle of Quel'Danas.
Contrary to what Jiang Jie guessed, Cirvanas got in touch with Kael'thas not long ago and knew that Kael'thas was on Quel'Danas Island, but he didn't tell her what he was doing, but issued a Quirky command:
Strengthen vigilance, patrol the coast, and be alert to the Naga tribe.
Naga tribe, did they come up from the depths of the deep sea?
Are they going to attack Silvermoon City?
Kael'thas, what on earth do you want to do?
…………
Looking at the leader of the watchmen not far away, Kael'thas' expression was very ugly.
He immediately ordered all the high elf mages to defend and guard, and then ordered the phoenix "Ao" to attack. At the same time, he cast a spell, and an invisible force field swept towards Maiev.
But the next moment, Maiev disappeared without a trace.
Kael'thas let go of his spirit, and even used spell detection.
But as always, he failed to find Maiev's trace, the opponent's concealment ability was too strong, his speed was too fast, and his experience was too rich.
"Mavie!"
Kael'thas changed from his princely demeanor before, frowning and gnashing his teeth.
Unexpectedly, helping Illidan actually provoked such a terrible monster!
Since leaving Ashenvale, Maiev has been following them, trying every means to capture Illidan.
Even when they entered the extremely dangerous Tomb of Sargeras, Maiev followed.
They went through all kinds of hardships, killed hundreds of demons, avoided traps one after another, and finally got the Eye of Sargeras.
Although many of his subordinates were killed by demons and traps, more were killed by Maiev and other watchers!
Fortunately, Illidan used the power of the Eye of Sargeras to teleport them out of the Tomb of Sargeras, and the frantic influx of sea water killed almost all the watchers, but Maiev who survived was still a lingering nightmare.
Suramar, and on the way back, they were attacked again and again by Maiev, causing heavy casualties.
Kael'thas had no doubts:
If Maiev's target is not Illidan, but himself, then he will be killed in his sleep one day!
"Damn Maiev, damn... Illidan!" Kael'thas cursed inwardly, furious.
Fortunately, the ceremony was about to be completed, and he was about to be freed.
At this moment, a storm crow appeared in the sky.
It was a storm crow bigger than a giant eagle, carrying a storm, and a beautiful night elf priestess was sitting on its back.
Whoosh whoosh!
The priestess bent her bow and set her arrows, and a series of feathered arrows flew down. The target was...
Naga witches who maintain the ritual!
Kael'thas frowned slightly, but he didn't choose to take the first shot, because he recognized the storm crow and the priestess.
Those were the two beings he absolutely didn't want to provoke, unless he didn't want to hang out in Ashenvale anymore, didn't want to continue running the Demon Slayer Canyon, and continue hunting down Azshara's demons.
The High Elves are in a difficult position and should not continue to make enemies.
If he doesn't make a move, someone makes a move.
Thunder strikes!
A series of lightning bolts pierced the sky, and hit the feather arrows with great accuracy, blowing them into pieces.
The Naga witch with a poisonous snake head, Azshara's personal maid known as the "Gorgon", and the future Queen of Coiled Fangs, Ms. "Fashqi", approached the altar with her long tail, and looked up at the person next to her. The voice of the enchanting night elf priestess was filled with endless coldness and sarcasm:
"Tyrande, you really deserve to die!"
