Chapter 0146 Illidan and the Flame Alliance (2)
On the beach of the Broken Islands, when Illidan summoned the large group of deep-sea amphibians Naga, and recognized their leader from them, it turned out that they were the old lovers he met ten thousand years ago... Ah, I was wrong, it should be after I met Ms. Vasqi. Soon, under the influence of both sides' love or other factors, Vasqi quickly agreed to the request for alliance with Illidan and was willing to lead her Naga tribe to serve Illidan.
Anyway, their tribe has nothing to do recently. In the deep sea, it is not only sleeping but also sleeping all day long, and providing some help to Illidan is also a good choice in her opinion. This is an excuse for her to convince herself. As for whether this is the case, only she herself knows it.
So, after the communication was completed, Illidan and Vasqi led her Naga and deep-sea fish people to slowly walk towards the depths of the Tomb of Sargeras.
Along the way, they could easily see that this tomb chamber should not have been a tomb chamber.
Whether it is Illidan or Vasqi, they can see the exquisite patterns carved on the walls from the surrounding cylinders, and even the exquisite artistic patterns are everywhere on the ground and ceiling.
Both of them actually knew that these were the styles of the upper elf buildings in the past... This was the city of Kadore back then. From these buildings and murals, they seemed to have vaguely seen the glorious traces of the Kadore Empire that year...
This place also belongs to the outer layer of the cemetery. Apart from the slight sounds made by their group during their actions, the two of them have not yet discovered any guard monsters or demons.
They walked in silence not far apart. If they ignored the hideous Naga and fishman behind them, they seemed to have returned to the city of Cardore back then, and the powerful Cardore Empire back then. At that time, they had walked together in the magnificent streets like this, enjoying the warm sunshine and the wonderful energy light of the radiant well of the eternal...
Unfortunately, ten thousand years later, things have changed... The remains of Kadore are basically preserved here are still so beautiful. And one of them has become an evil demon, while the other is cursed and twisted into a monster in the deep sea...
"Mr. Illidan, can I take the liberty to ask, you came here from thousands of miles away, and you also cast spells to awaken us, and then entered this place where there seemed to be danger. What do you want to come here? Or what do you want to find?"
After a little remembrance of the glorious time of the Cardore Empire, looking at Illidan, who was the first to lead the way, Vasqi finally couldn't help but ask this question.
Looking at the ruins around him that originally belonged to the Cardore Empire, Vasqi sighed in his heart.
For some reason, she wanted to ask him something like this. Maybe she couldn't stand the dull atmosphere at the moment? Or just wanted to simply say a few words to Illidan?
"It doesn't matter to tell you, because... not long ago, after defeating the Burning Legion's plot and the polluter Archmond was defeated, another great lord of their Burning Legion, Kilgardan, found me, and he asked me to come here to find a magical artifact called Sargeras, and to help him deal with a Lich King named Neozu."
Illidan directly told the cemetery where he came here, and did not hide it from Vasqi, nor did he intend to hide it from her.
Because, now Vasqi is not only his friend ten thousand years ago, but also his only subordinate now, and he still has basic trust.
And... for some reason, seeing the Vasqi next to him always makes him feel like he is sympathetic. Both of them have become strange looks different from elves, which makes him unable to feel deceiving at all.
"The Burning Legion? It's been ten thousand years, are they really back..."
When Vasqi heard this familiar name again, she couldn't help but frown, and the snake hair on her head began to dance unconsciously. She had an inexplicable hatred for the Burning Legion!
It can be said that the destruction of their Kadore Empire back then, and they were sucked into the vortex and turned into this ugly appearance in front of them. All of this has nothing to do with the Burning Legion! Or, it can even be said that it is all thanks to their Burning Legion!
"If I remember correctly, Lord Illidan, have you ever vowed to destroy the Burning Legion? Back then, you found that artifact and reversed the portal, and drove the demons out of the Azeroth world... Then, why are you now going to serve the Burning Legion?"
Vasqi expressed his discomfort about this. Could it be that ten thousand years have passed, and Illidan's original intention has changed? He also succumbed to the power of the Burning Legion?
Although Vasqi didn't care much about who Yilidan was serving for, she only cared about that she was loyal to Yilidan now, as long as the person she was loyal to was him. What else is the meaning of Vasqi now? What can she expect in this long and cursed life?
"You are wrong, Vasqi, my determination to deal with the Burning Legion has never changed, nor will it change!"
Hearing the gas, Yilidan paused, turned around, and looked at the poor lady who was almost as tall as herself and had become like a monster.
"Whether in the past or now, my determination to destroy the Burning Legion has always been firm! And now, the reason why I came to this Sargeras Tomb is just a mutual use with the demons."
When he thought of Kiljadan's terrifying strength, Illidan couldn't help but frown. It was like that powerful and desperate existence that he could not deal with now, so he could only choose to endure temporarily.
It has nothing to do with right or wrong, it is just to achieve the ultimate goal!
"Haha... the devil is using me, why am I using them? Okay, let's move on and be careful. There should be some guardian demons in front of me, and I have already smelled the stench on them."
After laughing for a moment, Illidan shook his head and reminded them to pay attention to their surroundings. He continued to turn around and start leading the way in front.
When Illidan began to absorb the power of Gul'dan's skull, he also absorbed the other party's knowledge and a lot of memories. Therefore, he knew the road to the room of poisonous eyes and what kind of monsters would be on this road.
In the room of poisonous eyes that Gul'dan could not open, there is his ultimate goal of Illidan's operation - the Eye of Sargeras!
"What? Here, it is still the tomb of the great demon lord, the evil Titan Sagelas?"
After knowing that the place we came here was the cemetery of Sargeras, which seduced the Queen of Depravity, this truth surprised Vasqi!
"If that happens, then will the big demon know all the conversation we just talked about?"
Thinking of this, Vasqi's face began to become a little unnatural. She seemed to have asked something she shouldn't have asked.
She knew that a powerful demon like Sargeras would definitely not die easily, and she had just asked questions like Illidan... Then, wouldn't it be that the demons knew Illidan's plan and intention? Will this have any bad effects on him?
"Ha! You don't have to worry about these things, Vasqi."
Illidan began to pick up the two Essinos blades in his hand. He had seen it now, and at the corner of the corridor ahead, there were a few demons lying there.
This is really stupid. Don’t they know that Illidan himself is the most powerful demon hunter? How could a demon hunter who is specialized in not dealing with demons be attacked by a group of inferior demons?
"Whether it is Sargeras or Kiljaden, they actually know that I am hostile to the Burning Legion. But what if? As long as they think I can still be used, they will still give me strength and even give me everything I want! Even if I keep the Burning Legion destruction every day, they will not shake their determination to use me to do their jobs for them!"
"They have the power that makes me desperate, and have the power that is enough to ignore everything as a source of confidence. Therefore, they will not care about my intention at all. As long as I can complete the tasks they assigned, they will give me the power I need, even if I use these powers to eliminate them..."
Illidan knew that in front of the great lords of the Burning Legion, he was nothing more than an ant that could be used and a bug with some value!
Whether it is Sargeras or Kiljaden, how could they care about the idea of an ant? What they care more about is whether they can complete the tasks they assigned on schedule, that's all!
Just like this time, Kiljadan knew that in the ancient war, they had knocked the Burning Legion once, which made their plan to conquer the Azeroth world fail; this time, he even killed several generals of their legion, which made Archmond lose his destruction.
But so what? As long as he still has value to be exploited, after Archmond was killed and no one was available, wouldn't he find himself and force himself to complete the tasks he issued?
"So that's what it is..."
After thinking about it, Vasqi still couldn't understand the thoughts of these people or demons. Could it be that they are in different positions and so their ideas are also different? She felt that it was difficult to understand...
"But, Lord Illidan, I still want to ask, why do you try so hard to destroy the Burning Legion?"
Regarding this, Vasqi had actually wanted to ask a long time ago, how could a demon organization like the Burning Legion, which is not only powerful but also huge, be destroyed casually? Wouldn't Illidan choose a more reliable target?
"Why?"
When I heard about Vasqi's question, Illidan was also a little silent.
"For the Azeroth world, because I like this world, I live here..."
After pondering for a while, I still gave this simple answer.
That's right, Illidan likes this Azeroth world, and the Burning Legion wants to destroy this world. Then, Illidan wants to destroy the Burning Legion, it's that simple and so pure!
Even though he was misunderstood and despised by his tribe members; even if he was detained for ten thousand years; even if he had been declared permanently expelled by his tribe members and his brother, his purpose had never changed in the slightest!
He is different from others. The reason why he greedily and almost uses any means to pursue stronger power, even if he is misunderstood by others, but in fact, he is not for the power itself, but for the better destruction of the Burning Legion, that's all! He has never changed this purpose from beginning to end!
"Is it worth it for you to pay so much? You know, the world of Azeroth is not yours..."
Vasqi felt a little unfair for Illidan. He paid so much, but now, what did he gain in the end?
Not only did he turn himself into a demon, but he was also chased by a group of night elves jailers called the Watcher? He fell to the point where he wanted to enter the Tomb of Sargeras and summoned his Nagas to seek help?
"Ha! You are wrong, Vasqi, nothing worth it or not. As long as I am willing and I decide what I have decided, I will continue unswervingly! As long as I am still alive, no one can shake me! No one can!"
After saying that, Illidan picked up the battle blade in his hand, rushed forward with a storm, and cut a small group of demon guards and several hellhounds who were ambushing around the corner into scattered pieces.
Vasqi was a little surprised, she just stared at the figure fighting the demon in front of her.
Ha, sure enough... you are still the Lord Illidan I met back then... As long as the matter is decided, no matter whether it is right or wrong, it will always go all the way... Just like, you are with that Tyrande...
Alas...but, Illidan...It is precisely because of this that I choose to follow you...
So, let me see how far can you go on this difficult road?
She sighed in her heart, and finally figured out everything, Vasqi took out the bow and arrow that she had not used for a long time since she arrived in the deep sea. Then, she waved her hand and asked her subordinates to speed up and catch up quickly, and not be too far away by Yilidan, who had already begun fighting with more demons in front.
...
Soon, with the help of Sargeras Curse Vision and Guldan's memory in Illidan, he, Vasqi and the group of Naga fishmen easily entered the poisonous eye room that Guldan could not enter at the time without much effort, and finally found the Eye of Sargeras stored here.
It is not so much an eye as a green weird gem with eye rune style and exuding powerful evil power.
"This is the Eye of Sargeras? It's indeed a very powerful artifact!"
Vasqi looked at the green gem floating in the middle of the poisonous eye room with evil energy. She frowned and watched Illidan step forward, grab it and cast spells to gradually shrink it. Finally, the artifact was held in his palm with one hand.
"Yes, this is what I'm looking for!"
After Illidan held the Eye of Sargeras in his palm, he nodded with satisfaction.
This thing really has terrible power that he cannot imagine, and this is exactly what he needs! However, before leaving now, he still needs to deal with another troublesome thing.
"Hmph! Come out, Mavie, don't hide anymore, I've seen you."
Illidan just grabbed the Eye of Sargeras with one hand and turned around and snorted coldly in the direction of the gate. Now, he had already obtained this artifact, and his subordinates were already fearless. All he needed to consider was how to deal with the other party.
"Illidan, you stubborn evildoer! You are indeed here to find these evil things again. However, this time, you will definitely not be able to escape. I will definitely capture you back and be imprisoned in our Watcher's dungeon forever!"
After Mavie Yingge, the warden of the night elves hidden in the mask and the cloak of swords, walked out of the door, waved his hand suddenly, and a large number of guardian troops began to rush out, instantly blocking the door of the huge poisonous eye room. They wanted to catch the turtle in the jar, leaving the other party nowhere to escape!
"Hmph! You are wrong, Mavie. In fact, it is not me who is stubborn, but you!"
"Even now, you are still so stupid and still can't see the essence of things! You have blinded your eyes by those ridiculous hatred!"
Looking at Mavie who appeared with a large number of troops, Illidan shook his head helplessly. He knew that this crazy woman would never let him go easily... It was time to understand this matter.
"It's just that it's too late for you to arrive now. When I assimilate with the power of Gul'dan's skull, I also got his memory: This Eye of Sargeras, which has a power that you can't imagine, will allow me to conquer everything and destroy my enemies forever! (The Burning Legion) And you will be the first victim of this power, this...even the best reward for years of imprisonment for you!"
Although Illidan didn't want to kill this Mavie, he didn't hate them much, it was just the helplessness when he was misunderstood...
However, Illidan also knew that continuing to let her chase her is not a solution, and her plan cannot be destroyed! Perhaps, burying them here now is the best choice, right?
"Farewell, Mavie? Shadow Song!"
After saying that, Illidan, who was unwilling to be entangled, activated the power of the Eye of Sargeras to shake the ruins, and also launched teleportation magic to teleport all of himself and his men to the Broken Islands outside.
Then, in the huge tomb, there were only Mawei, who was gritting teeth and a group of watchmen who could only stare at the stare. At this time, they were looking at the top of their heads in horror and despair, looking at the gravel that was constantly shaking, a ruin cave that was about to collapse.
...
In the spring of the 21st year of the Dark Gate of Azeroth, shortly after the death of Archmond, the Fire Alliance, which no longer had to be bound by the magic contract, finally launched a full-scale war against the undead natural disaster in winter and half a spring.
There were nearly 200,000 elite alliance troops and more than 100,000 strong civilians of the three tribes. Within one day, they crossed the Sodorir River, rushed to the Western Plagueland, and easily defeated the undead natural disaster defense position opposite the river.
In just one day, the entire Western Plagueland, whether it is Andorhal or the key to the undead natural disaster, in the Barov family castle in Lake Daronmil, and the current psychic academy, are all under the powerful military front of the Flame Alliance, and can be broken every once in a while!
"Okay, everyone probably knows the situation of the battle in front of you. Now the entire Western Plagueland is nothing more than the castle of Andorhar and the former Barov family. As for other places, it is not worth mentioning!"
After breaking the undead Sodoril River defense line, the Fire Alliance began to set up the first advance camp of their coalition at the Gayron Farm.
After all, this is a super-large battle of the large army, and marching is not a joke! Therefore, they must take it step by step, and it is still necessary to build a large camp as a bridgehead and advance base. They will not let a large number of troops run like sheep like sheep!
Now, under the command and arrangement of Grand Marshal Lordaern, the Flame Alliance army began to advance step by step without any scattering. In his plan, in less than a month, they could push the camp step by step to Lordaern's royal city, and there would be no many twists and turns in the face of absolute strength.
"So, now our plan is to divide a portion of the Fire Eagle and Dragon Eagle Shooter and the First Elite Infantry Legion of Lordaeron, take a boat south across Lake Dalonmil, and directly capture or destroy the castle of the Barovs!"
"Then, at the same time, send most elite troops of the Silver Hand Knights and some of the Griffon Knights from Eagle Nest Mountain to quickly go north and directly break the undead on the road to rescue the Fireplace Valley! They can persist until now, and there must be many survivors!"
Grand Marshal Gallithers used a baton to point the Barov family castle on the sand table and the direction of the Fireplace Valley in the north. These two places have been initially investigated, and there are not too many undead spirits. Their partial masters they have divided are enough to deal with those undead spirits.
"In the end, our remaining main army went straight west and captured Andorhal at the fastest speed. Then, we sent a small number of troops to build camps south on the main road leading to the Hillsbrad hills, blocking the road north of the demons and undead in the south, and ensuring the safety of the rear of the Western Plagueland!"
"After the return of the Silver Hand Knights and the capture of the Barov family castle, we can go directly west after just a few days of repair in Andorhal, and attack the land of Tirisfalin in one fell swoop and head to the city of Lordaeron!"
In the tent, Grand Marshal Garythers was making the final battle arrangements.
Everything seems to be regular, without any strange plan, nor any tricks. This is the battle of a large army! Everything is about real flat push, and flat push!
At this point, there is not much strategy to speak of. The strength of both sides is already on the surface. You can attack wherever there are undead, occupy wherever there is important, and then push it directly over.
"Look at what else needs to be added?"
Anyway, the Fire Alliance is now strong and obviously bullying the undead and the demons. Of course, Garithers directly chose important combat areas and attack and annihilate the targets. Everything is based on annihilation of the enemy's living forces. First concentrate troops to annihilate the undead natural disasters and important strongholds left by the demons, and then the rest of the rest can be handed over to the left-behind troops to slowly clean up.
"Okay, I don't think there is any problem, so do it!"
The dwarf leader Fistard thought for a while and finally nodded. Although he had a personal conflict with Garithers, he still agreed to the other party's arrangement. All of this seemed to be average and steady. It seemed that nothing was wrong. Then, just like that, he was too lazy to think too much.
"I have a question. Andorha is surrounded by a large number of undead. How should we attack? If we attack without authorization, there may be considerable casualties."
Sylvanas, dressed in an exquisite ranger costume, carrying a bow and arrow and arrow bag, finally spoke. As the king of the high elf of Quel's sarah, and she used to be a general of ranger, she had the ability to protect herself, so of course she would not miss such a war.
She has rich experience in fighting against the undead natural disasters. She knows that in that overwhelming sea of undead, no matter how elite your troops are, they can exhaust you half to death, and then tear you to pieces again! If the coalition forces rashly attack Andorha, where more than 100,000 undeads are still entrenched, the loss will definitely not be small!
"You don't have to worry too much about this. This Andorha will be led by the Flame Legion. They will directly and completely burn the city... and we humans, elves and dwarves only need to provide some necessary assistance outside."
After Marshal Garythers nodded to the Elf Queen, he quickly came up with his combat plan.
In fact, for Andorhal, a large human town, it is also an important land transportation hub connecting the three places, Garithers is not willing to be destroyed just like this.
He also knew very well the combat power of the Fire Elemental Legion. Stantosom was the best example at that time. Once the Fire Elemental Army was allowed to invade Andorha, this large city would probably be burned to white ground by them.
However, there is no better way now. Compared with this heavily polluted city, Garithers cares more about preserving the strength of the coalition forces. After all, there will be a war in the Tirisfalinland area next, and he is unwilling to consume too much force in the plague land.
"This plan is feasible, and we, Quel'thalas, have no objections now!"
Several high-elves ranger lords and ranger generals discussed with each other, looked at the map with their own Queen Sylvanas and discussed for a while, and nodded in agreement. This plan was well-behaved, and they could not find any faults. In the face of absolute strength, they should really be so steady.
"You guys are really troublesome! As I said, just hit them in a hurry? Tsk! Forget it, don't you care about you, just do it yourself. I want to go back and take a nap first!"
Seeing these people discussing each other so long for a long time when they were fighting, little Annie was a little impatient.
If she follows her idea, she will directly release all the fire element army and let them fight wherever they go and burn wherever they go!
Just like the Battle of Stantamsom she launched last time, the fire elements rushed out in a swarm and burned all the north of the Eastern Plagueland. Then, in the end, slowly gathered troops and came back? How easy and simple, wasn’t she so big last time? Stantamsom was captured by her and turned into a city of flames!
“…”
After watching Little Anne leave in anger, the corners of her mouth twitched unconsciously. Fortunately, the commander in charge of the specific battle this time was Garrith, the Grand Marshal of the Kingdom of Lordaeron, not the Queen of Flame.
Otherwise, I don’t know what big mess she is going to make! If it is the fire element, maybe it can be done randomly. After all, their characteristics and powerful strength are there, and they don’t have to worry about eating, drinking, defecation and urination.
However, the armies of the other three tribes are not good. They must pay attention to the cooperation between the legions, the combination of marching and fighting, the combination of work and rest, when can we rest, when we need to fight, and when we need to march, this is all a big question!
These things require a senior commander to coordinate and command. This is why the alliance army will elect Garithers as commander-in-chief this time. After all, it is probably only his who has had the experience of commanding a large army. For the current army and civilians, with a total of more than 300,000 super-large legions, besides the undead and the previous temporary alliance of Kalimdo, it is probably only their Flame Alliance that can take action.
Fortunately, they tried their best to win Garithers as the commander. Otherwise, if this little girl was really doing something, I don’t know what kind of trouble would happen now!
They could even imagine that if she was really allowed to do anything, now, besides her Fire Elemental Legion, the other three elite legions would probably be beaten by this Queen Anne and started to collapse before it even started fighting? In that case, the Fire Alliance would really make a big joke...
Chapter completed!
