Volume 9: Disaster Chapter 514 Gul'dan and Ner'zhul
On the icy Dragonbone Wasteland, a huge orc army is marching forward.
Gu Dan walked at the front of the team. His burly figure, over three meters tall, stood out among the orcs like a crane among chickens.
Gu: "This damn place is really freezing."
Gar: "So what? But for the sake of our master's cause, we have no choice but to keep going."
The two heads muttered and complained to each other while observing their surroundings.
This strange icy continent is not safe. Since the moment they landed, they have been constantly attacked by various monsters, including the savage Vikings, sneaky wolverines , stupid bear monsters... and various beasts unique to the Arctic.
It is said that there are giant dragons in this area, so you have to be extra careful.
In the sky, several Obsidian Destroyers were protecting the team, and there were many Ahn'Qiraj Soldier Bees floating above the army, forming a dense swarm.
In the army's sequence, there are many types of soldiers, and even some mantis demons and yak people can be seen.
After a year of fighting in the unfamiliar land of Pandaria, although his orc troops suffered heavy losses, he also successfully absorbed and conquered many alien troops to join.
Not only did the size of the Abyss Legion not decrease, but it grew even bigger.
The Twilight Clan also gained a lot of troops.
Suddenly, an Ahn'Qiraj Trooper Bee landed quickly, and the orc rider on its back screamed, "It's a dragon! A dragon is coming."
Upon hearing that there was a dragon, the orcs and Ahn'Qiraj insects in the team suddenly became chaotic.
It is no wonder that these orcs are afraid of dragons. Back then in Silithus, it was a giant dragon that could control the storm and the Centaur Emperor who teamed up to defeat their former master, the Ancient God C'Thun.
The horrific storm raised by the storm dragon killed countless Ahn'Qiraj Zerg. To this day, this fear still remains in the hearts of orcs and Ahn'Qiraj Zerg.
Gugar was also a little nervous. The dragons were different from the natives he had encountered before. They posed a real threat.
"Everyone, be alert! Be alert!"
He had just assembled some anti-aircraft forces when the giant dragon mentioned by the scout descended from the sky, bringing with it an icy cold wind and passing over his head like a cold dark cloud.
With a wingspan of up to a hundred meters, the Ahn'Qiraj Soldier Bees that tried to stop it were blown away.
Seeing the appearance of the giant dragon, Gugal couldn't help but think in his heart - Fortunately, it's not the Storm Dragon King!
But when he saw the rider on the dragon's back, his expression suddenly turned ugly again.
He recognized the man.
Varian Wrynn?
Back then, Varian killed the first warchief, Blackhand, and fought the Horde for half a year in the Second War, killing countless orcs, which also left him a great reputation in the hearts of the orcs.
How did this guy end up in Northrend? Could it be that the Alliance discovered the master's plan and they want to stop us?
When Gugar thought of this possibility, he couldn't help but feel a chill in his heart.
However, 'Varian' has already spoken.
Gul'dan (Lich King): "What's wrong, Cho'gall? It's been so long since I last saw you that you've completely forgotten your manners. Why don't you even say hello to your teacher when you see him?"
teacher?
Gugal's heart skipped a beat. That hoarse and low voice was extremely familiar, and those eyes emitting evil green fire reminded him of something.
Cho'gall (Twilight Chieftain): "Gul'dan? It's you! How did you—"
Gul'dan (Lich King): "Yes, it is me. I have gained real power. Although it is a little different from what I expected, this power is enough to make the world surrender to me. I am very happy to meet you here. Perhaps this is fate.
Now kneel down and pledge allegiance to your master. I believe you have not forgotten who your master is, right? "
Just as Gul'dan was about to speak, his eyes suddenly looked behind Gul'dan. An even larger shadow was falling from the sky and approaching rapidly.
A strange smile suddenly appeared on Gugar's face.
"Hail to you, Master."
Gul'dan immediately sensed something was wrong. He turned his head sharply and saw a terrifying black dragon with a wingspan of over two hundred meters, emitting a strange dark aura, quickly passing over him.
The powerful aura made him tremble with fear and he felt threatened.
It's Deathwing!
He was startled, and the hatred of having his fleet destroyed by the Black Dragon Legion on the Endless Sea once again surfaced in his mind.
Deathwing! You bastard, you actually dared to show up again, do you think you can humiliate me again? I am not the same person I was back then, and I will make you pay the price today!
Gul'dan hurriedly pulled out Frostmourne, pulled the reins, and Bolerius soared into the air, circling and confronting the opponent.
However, it was then Gul'dan discovered that Deathwing looked a little strange. His dark pupils were as dead and lifeless as the night sky. Many of the dragon scales on his body were damaged, and a black substance flowed out from the wounds, leaving a black trail like black smoke during his flight.
If the Deathwing of the past was like a volcano that could erupt at any time, powerful and violent, the Deathwing of this moment was like a bottomless dark valley, fraught with murderous intent.
What surprised Gul'dan even more was that there was an orc standing on the back of Deathwing's dragon, a burly orc shrouded in an ominous black robe.
The orc's hood suddenly opened, revealing three dark red eyes.
Ner'zhul (Void Walker): "What's wrong, Gul'dan? It's been so long since we last met that you've completely forgotten your manners. Why don't you even say hello to your teacher when you see him?"
Ner'zhul's voice came clearly to Gul'dan's ears through the howling cold wind.
No, that was not shouted out, but transmitted directly into his consciousness using psychic powers.
Gul'dan was shocked. Ner'zhul? How could it be him? And judging from his appearance, he seemed to have gained great power.
And why would Ner'zhul be mixed up with Deathwing?
The powerful aura emanating from the other party at this moment was not weaker than his at all.
Gul'dan held Frostmourne in his hand and gritted his teeth for a moment.
Gul'dan (Lich King): "Ner'zhul, why are you here?"
Ner'zhul (Void Walker): "Gul'dan, I should be the one asking you this. Aren't you dead? Let me guess. Did the demons send your soul back to this world to recycle it?"
Gul'dan (Lich King): "Watch your words, Ner'zhul. My power is beyond your imagination. Do not try to anger me, or I will let you taste the pain of the torture you suffered in the past."
Ner'zhul (Void Walker): "Gul'dan, your bravado cannot scare me. I can feel the magic of death in you, but don't forget that I was the one who taught you necromancy. I am far superior to you in the study of soul magic. Compared with the power I have obtained, your power is not worth mentioning at all."
Gul'dan (Lich King): "Hahahaha, you know nothing about my power, Ner'zhul. I have gained power that you cannot imagine from the Burning Legion. I have seen the true meaning of death and transcended the boundary between life and death. I hold the authority of true power. As long as I wish, you and your army will become part of my undead army."
Ner'zhul (Void Walker): "Really? I'd really like to give it a try."
Since they were not on the same page, both of them attacked at the same time.
The Darkness of a Thousand Souls!
Gul'dan swung his sword violently, and the magic of death and ice gathered into a torrent and rushed towards him.
Void dark annihilation wave!
Ner'zhul also raised his staff, gathered the power of shadow into a destructive shock wave, and blasted it towards Gul'dan.
The two energies collided in mid-air and exploded instantly, turning into a huge energy wave that spread in all directions. Even the cold dark clouds in the sky were blown away by the shock wave.
The huge impact force also caused the two dragons to be blown away slightly. Relatively speaking, it was obvious that Polyrelus was blown away more.
Both the master and the disciple were greatly surprised.
This traitor/old guy is actually so strong?
Both of them were holding back, but because of this, they were unsure of the other's strength at this moment.
If a tiger encounters a sheep, it will of course eat it with relish, but if it encounters another tiger, it will think twice before acting.
Ner'zhul (Void Walker): "Not bad, traitor. It seems you haven't fallen behind in your studies during this period."
Gul'dan (Lich King): "Thanks to your good teaching, your magic has become more and more sophisticated."
Ner'zhul (Void Walker): "Gul'dan, why don't you join me? My plan requires a lot of manpower, and I really need a strong man like you. I can forget the unpleasantness between us in the past, and I can also give you true power, as long as you serve me."
Gul'dan (Lich King): "I should be the one to say this. The power of death is the true meaning of everything. All things will eventually die, only death is eternal. Join me, and together we will make the world tremble."
The two of them tested each other, were wary of each other, and also tried to win over each other.
No one is more familiar with each other than these two. They were once master and apprentice, but later became enemies. Later, they worked for the tribe together again. Past experiences made their emotions extremely complicated. While they hated each other, they also valued each other's strength.
At this moment, Conan the Barbarian and Winter is Coming finally arrived with the undead army. The first to arrive were the flying gargoyles and skeleton cavalry.
Faced with the orc army that was ready for battle, the two of them immediately deployed their troops.
In terms of numbers alone, the size of the Scourge far outweighs the size of the Abyss.
However, when they saw the two people in the sky, they decisively did not order an attack.
At this moment, the master and disciple in heaven had already reached an agreement.
At this moment, the two finally realized that they had embarked on completely different paths.
Ner'zhul (Void Walker): "Then let it be, Gul'dan. Take your army and leave. Don't block my way, and I won't block your way. By the way, your dragon is pretty good, very exquisite."
Gul'dan couldn't help but choke upon hearing these words. He originally thought that it was very majestic and powerful to have the resurrected White Dragon King, Boileus, as his mount, but when compared to Deathwing, who had a wingspan of over 200 meters, the difference was completely different.
Gul'dan (Lich King): "Hmph, a truly powerful person doesn't need to rely on a mount to bluff. Let's go!"
Watching Gul'dan riding away with his men on his dragon.
Deathwing suddenly growled, "Ner'zhul, were you hinting that I'm your mount?"
"Don't worry about it, Deathwing. We are in the same team. N'Zoth sent you here to assist me."
"I only obey my master." Deathwing's voice was emotionless. "My master asked me to help you find Yogg-Saron's whereabouts, not to help you show off."
"Don't worry. My scouts are everywhere. We have found the burial place of Yogg-Saron. It is sealed in a Titan relic - a temple called Ulduar. We will arrive there soon and dig Yogg-Saron out."
Ner'zhul said with great anticipation.
He successfully dug out the Heart of Az'arj in Pandaria, and with the power of the Eye of C'Thun he had obtained before, he is now extremely powerful.
It's laughable that N'Zoth, that idiot, thought he could control himself and use himself to seize the power of other Old Gods for him.
After Yogg-Saron is dealt with, the next one will be N'Zoth. By then, with the power of the five old gods gathered, no one in this world will be able to stop him anymore.
When Ner'zhul returned to the ground, Cho'gall immediately came to meet him.
"Master, why don't we keep Gul'dan here? After all, he was once your enemy." Cho'gall said with a twinkling in his eyes. He actually had his own selfish motives. Gul'dan hated betrayal the most. He had defected to Ner'zhul, and he would be in danger if he met Gul'dan in the future. It would be best if Ner'zhul could kill Gul'dan.
Ner'zhul (Void Walker): "There is no need. At our level of power, past grudges are meaningless. The only thing that matters is power. Power! Keep moving forward."
The orc army of the Abyss Legion and the undead army of the Scourge crossed each other and watched each other disappear from sight.
At this moment, Gul'dan also landed back to the ground.
Barbarian King Conan immediately asked, "Boss, aren't we going to attack?"
Gul'dan (Lich King): "No, there is no need to make things complicated. Ner'zhul is not our enemy, at least not yet."
Ner'zhul? Conan the Barbarian and Winter is Coming looked at each other and saw each other's surprise. Why did Ner'zhul come to Northrend?
"So what are we going to do next? Are we going to attack Azeroth?"
"No."
Gul'dan said, but he remembered the taunting just now.
It would be fine if it was others, but it was hard for him to ignore the taunts from Ner'zhul.
If you dare to laugh at my small dragon, I will let you see what a real giant is.
Gul'dan (Lich King): "Gather all your forces and dig out the monster beneath Wyrmrest Temple. I want to resurrect Galakrond."
…
Winter is Coming: This is what is happening, Aidan, how about this information?
Aidan: Very good. When we defeat the Lich King, you and Conan will be credited with the main contributions, and you will definitely reap the benefits.
Conan the Barbarian: Don’t think about the benefits. Just be careful when you fight Goudan and don’t hurt your friendly forces by mistake.
Winter is Coming: And - this world must have a Lich King, you know this, right? Now that Varian is dead, why don't we be the Lich King?
Godwin: Don't worry, we are all professionals and will not hurt anyone by mistake. As for the Lich King... it is better for such a huge Scourge to fall into the hands of our brothers than into the hands of NPCs. As long as you cooperate with us to capture Gul'dan, it doesn't matter if we give you the position of the Lich King.
Winter is coming: Hahaha, brother is right, then let’s make it a deal.
Turn off the group chat.
Murphy and Godwin opened a separate chat channel.
Godwin: Brother Aidan, why do you think Ner'zhul appeared in Northrend? This is really strange. Ner'zhul is also a world-destroying boss. Gul'dan alone is not easy to deal with. If the master and apprentice join forces, it will be difficult for us.
Aidan: Don't worry, they will never cooperate because of the grudge between them. Ner'zhul is indeed very strong, but I have fought him before and his strength was just so-so. As long as all our heroes unite, we will not be afraid of not being able to defeat him.
Murphy actually already had some guesses in his mind about Ner'zhul's appearance in Northrend. During the last battle, Ner'zhul successfully absorbed the power of C'Thun.
Could it be that this time they are targeting the ancient gods again?
The ancient god sealed in Northrend is Yogg-Saron. He is sealed in the Temple of Ulduar and guarded by a group of Titan guardians created by the Titans. I'm afraid that Ner'zhul is coming for Yogg-Saron.
Is this guy going to absorb all the power of the Ancient Gods?
Can the body of an orc withstand such powerful force?
And shouldn't Deathwing be sleeping in Deepstone? Why did he come out so early? And he was hanging out with Ner'zhul?
And once the power of the five ancient gods is gathered... Murphy was shocked and suddenly thought of the past he saw in Yakir's memory.
Could it be that Ner'zhul's real purpose is to summon the Void Lords?
But there is nothing to be afraid of. To summon the Void Lords, one needs to gather the power of the five old gods. But currently the Heart of Xal'atath should be hidden in the City in the Sky, and it is impossible for Ner'zhul to gather it all.
But it will probably be a trouble sooner or later.
It seems that this international organization of the Alliance, the Horde, and the Night Elf must be maintained for a long time. After defeating the Lich King, I am afraid they will have to continue to fight against Ner'zhul.
However, the current priority is to get rid of the Lich King first.
