Volume 9: Disaster Chapter 533: The Journey of Natural Disaster
After listening to Murphy's explanation, the leaders of the three camps finally understood.
Godwin (King of Lordaeron): "Huh, so that's how it is. It seems that the game company is just so broad-minded. They said that players would create history and write legends, but after all this time they still have to preset the plot."
Emperor Shenwu (Centaur King): "I think it makes sense. If the Lich King was defeated so easily, then he might not be considered a legend. He is just a minor villain who occasionally shows up and is easily eliminated by righteous people. Maybe even the plot characters in our respective camps will not take the Lich King too seriously.
Losing a game like this now is not completely without benefits. At least it can make them realize the seriousness of the matter.
When this world is in dire straits, we will defeat the Lich King and become a true legend."
Ba Dao Wu Qing (Horde Chieftain): "That's another explanation... Well, no wonder I didn't cut off Frostmourne with that strike. It turned out to be the system's fault. Humph, Gul'dan, you're lucky. You won't be so lucky next time you meet him."
The three of them accepted this result very easily.
In fact, the three of them were somewhat guilty. In order to grab the Lich King's head at the last moment in the previous battle, the three of them kept their best moves for the last moment when their health was running low. It can be said that they did not use their full strength.
At this time, Murphy gave a reasonable explanation and simply backed off.
Since this battle was impossible to win, the three men were decisive and immediately began to command the troops to retreat.
They brought out their elite troops. If they could fight to the death with the Lich King, it would be acceptable if there were more casualties. But now it is clearly hopeless, so why not rush to rescue them - this is all money.
The three men each led a group of their most elite troops to cover their retreat, and ordered their soldiers and generals to quickly retreat to the warships at sea.
Fortunately, the sea surface had long been frozen flat, so the retreat did not lead to a major collapse.
However, facing the undead army that is coming like a tide, the one who can truly leave them behind is none other than Mo Fei.
Murphy flew to the coastline and stopped. Facing the undead that were chasing him like a tide, he immediately used all his ultimate skills.
Storm Authority - Big Storm!
Arcane Power—Fall of Stars!
Super Ancient Dragon Lightning——Dragon Thunder Storm!
A huge storm quickly enveloped the entire battlefield. The howling wind made it difficult for the undead to move. The Ancient Dragon King floated above the storm, his body shining with red lightning, causing countless dragon thunders to continuously bombard the ground. At the same time, countless arcane meteors streaked across the sky and fell to the ground like raindrops.
Murphy used three ultimate skills at the same time, forming a death line at the junction of the beach and the ice.
Any undead that crosses the line will be instantly blown into pieces and turned into ashes.
The consumption of doing so is undoubtedly enormous. Although arcane energy can be infinitely drawn from the magic network, the power of faith is still inevitably declining rapidly again.
But Murphy didn't care. Showing divine power could also boost the morale of believers and increase the power of faith.
Gul'dan looked at the ancient dragon king who blocked the Scourge army with the power of a single dragon and showed an expression of disbelief.
"This is impossible. Such a powerful force... Where does that rock dragon come from?"
Several dreadlords looked at each other and revealed uneasy expressions. Next, they would attack the eastern continent and seize the magic network node that opened the portal. With such a powerful enemy, the operation might not be so easy to succeed.
Even the undead felt fear in the face of this terrible destructive force.
Winter is Coming and Conan the Barbarian King even stopped their skeleton horses and stared at the ancient dragon king in the sky. Is Aidan so awesome? Who is the boss?
Only one person - or rather one dragon - was not afraid. Galakrond flapped his wings violently, took off into the air again, and pounced towards the ancient dragon king who was casting a spell.
The huge size difference between the two makes the scene look like a giant whale swooping down on a seabird.
The strong airflow generated by the flapping of Galakrond's wings directly shattered the ice surface. Even the undead flew wherever it flew. Many coalition soldiers running behind fell into the sea with a splash, struggling to swim.
Murphy did not retreat in the face of Galakrond. Galakrond was indeed powerful, but after his resurrection he was obviously not as strong as when he was alive. Now he has mastered two major powers and can be regarded as an extraordinary existence who has stepped into the realm of Dragon God. Although he cannot kill the opponent unless his health bar is displayed, it will be no problem if he just hits him on the head.
Aidan Deron (King of the Ancient Dragons): "Are you here... Galakrond, you are indeed very powerful, but even you must submit to the power of the King of the Ancient Dragons."
Storm miracle - big tornado!
The air currents in the storm suddenly began to shrink and squeeze inward, gathering into a huge and violent tornado. Even Galakrond's terrifying power was temporarily sucked in by the tornado and could not move forward.
Arcane authority——ancient forbidden spell——the Great Meteor Spell!
The sky that was covered by dark clouds and storms suddenly brightened up, and a ball of red light slowly fell in a circle of darkness. When the light passed through the clouds, it could finally be seen clearly that it was a huge meteorite with a diameter of tens of meters, carrying light and heat, falling vertically towards the center of the storm.
The damage output of this magic is absolutely explosive, but it's a pity that the spell has too long of a pre-swing. Under normal circumstances, it is difficult to hit fast-moving units, not to mention flying units. It can only be thrown into a crowd of people on the battlefield to kill miscellaneous soldiers.
But at this moment, Galakrond's huge size, coupled with his inability to move, made him the best target for this meteorite spell.
As everyone watched, a meteorite fell on Galakrond's back.
Boom—rumble boom!
The violent explosion resounded throughout the world, and the dazzling flames formed a huge mushroom cloud, as if a nuclear bomb had exploded in the air.
The shock wave dispersed most of the storm.
Galakrond also fell directly into the icy sea in the violent explosion, splashing icy water all over the sky, and disappeared in a whirlpool.
Murphy looked at the sea quietly. There was no system notification of killing him. It seemed that he was not dead yet...
But this time, the Scourge finally didn't dare to continue the pursuit.
Murphy took a look at the endless undead army on the coast and the group of Scourge bosses led by Gul'dan. He turned his dragon wings and flew towards the retreating fleet.
Gul'dan did not pursue, but just watched the back of the Ancient Dragon King disappear.
"Master, is the war over?" Kel'Thuzad looked at the fleet going away and asked the Lich King beside him.
Gul'dan (Lich King): "No, this war has just begun. We are about to embark on the journey of conquering the world. I will forge the road to kingship with the bones and flesh of thousands of undead. The mortal kingdoms will be razed to the ground. Humans, orcs, elves, dwarves...all the living will become my servants.
Those who stand in our way will be reduced to dust and rotten bones. The power of the Scourge is unstoppable!"
Winter is Coming (Death Lord): "But we don't have enough warships to transport the troops."
"Battleships? Humph, we don't need any fleets—"
As Gul'dan spoke, he swung Frostmourne vigorously towards the sea. Powerful frost magic was instantly released like a tide. The sea surface quickly froze and the ice covered the entire south.
Gul'dan (Lich King): "The Scourge - attack!"
Following Gul'dan's order, the dreadlords, crypt lords, death knights, liches... the powerful men of the Scourge gathered around the Lich King and began to march.
Countless undead stepped onto the ice and followed the Lich King.
In the sky, gargoyles and frost bone dragons were flying everywhere, and the huge floating fortress Naxxramas was also slowly flying from the north of Northrend and drifting towards the south.
In the sea, Galakrond surfaced, and his severely injured body gradually recovered again.
It flapped its wings and took off, its huge body almost as big as Naxxramas.
This unstoppable army of terror marched towards the other side of the sea in a mighty force.
…
[World Announcement: The large-scale plot event - the Battle of Death Beach has officially ended. With the retreat of the coalition forces, the battle ended with the victory of the Scourge.
A powerful coalition formed by the Alliance, the Horde, and the Night Elf launched a great battle with the Scourge on the Death Strand. The ultimate goal of this battle was to eliminate the threat of the Scourge in the wilderness of Northrend.
However, the strength of the Scourge far exceeded the imagination of the coalition leaders, and the endless army of undead made it difficult for the coalition to resist.
Countless brave warriors died on the icy Death Beach and later became part of the Scourge.
The Lich King successfully resurrected Galakrond, which became the key to turning the battle around. This huge undead dragon king drove the coalition forces into the sea with unstoppable force.
At the critical moment, the ancient dragon king Aidandelon summoned the power of storm and dragon thunder, temporarily stopping the undead's pursuit and allowing most of the coalition forces to retreat.
However, the power of natural disasters has been revealed to this world , and a crisis sweeping the world is inevitably about to come.
The Scourge has grown stronger, and is now - invincible.
The Scourge's expedition has officially begun. The Scourge will arrive at the Eastern Continent in seven days, with a time of 6 days, 23 hours and 59 minutes.
Due to the overwhelming power displayed , many secret sects and wizard groups that worshiped death and studied necromancy in the Eastern Continent and Kalimdor chose to join the Lich King and began to serve him. They accepted the control of the Lich King's whispers and were collectively called the Cult of the Damned, working hard to turn the world into a paradise for the dead.
In the coming war, undead disasters launched by the Curse Cult will appear all over the world. 】
As soon as he landed on the deck of the Storm Dragon King, Murphy heard the sound of the world announcement.
Murphy turned back into human form, thinking that this meant that the Scourge would arrive at the Eastern Continent in seven days... It would take the coalition fleet about two or three days to return, which meant they still had four or five days to prepare.
I don’t know how the alliance countries will face such a crisis.
[System prompt: Based on your performance in the [Death Beach Battle] plot event, you have received 1,350 plot points. Your hero rank has been upgraded to Epic Tier 5, and you have obtained a new hero specialty, which you can view and select in the specialty system.]
1350 plot points, a little less, but considering that there is not much to gain from this battle, it is still acceptable.
Check the property status.
Mo Fei thought that this battle was not completely without gain. Not only did he advance, but he also advanced by several levels. It was really fun to level up by killing undead, especially when he had infinite mana.
He is now up to level 91.
However, at this level, the attribute points given by upgrading are no longer that meaningful.
Murphy thought about it and, as usual, added all his attribute points to his health. With more health, he could better protect himself in battle.
He now realized that in a large-scale war, blood is king.
The Lich King has over 5 million HP, which is despairing to look at.
He now has more than 500,000 HP, which is pretty good.
In addition, there was another benefit, which was finding out that Varian was still alive.
Murphy had a feeling that Varian might be the key to defeating the Lich King Gul'dan.
He opened the battle record and checked the previous battle records one by one, every skill, every damage.
Found it!
Murphy's eyes lit up, he finally found the information he wanted.
That was the battle record left during his brief fight with Gul'dan.
System prompt: You have used the hero's specialty [Summon Brothers].
System prompt: You have received a response from [Brother: Varian].
System prompt: You have triggered the hero's specialty [Brothers United], and the current benefit effect is LV1.
System prompt: The effect of your [Brothers United] has disappeared.
Obviously, Varian is still there, his soul is still independent and complete, and the system will still judge him as an independent unit, so it can trigger the BUFF of Brotherly Unity.
After using the Summon Brothers technique, it triggered Brothers' Unity, an effect that all brothers could enjoy, allowing Varian to successfully gain temporary control of his body.
Unfortunately, with only two brothers, the bonus was too low. Gul'dan's soul was undoubtedly much stronger than Varian's , so he immediately regained control.
Then if there are enough brothers together, Varian can get a huge benefit, and maybe he can defeat Gul'dan and take back his body!
When Murphy thought of this, he already had a way to defeat Gul'dan in his mind.
The Lich King is powerful, but not invincible. What makes him difficult to defeat is the bias of the system. As the BOSS of this version, he must have enough status, so the system will give him various benefits.
Although the system makes it difficult to defeat the Lich King, you can still benefit from it as long as you make reasonable use of the system rules.
In all fantasy stories, no matter how powerful the villain is, he will eventually be defeated by the hero.
The reason why the Lich King is difficult to kill is that the current script is not the time for the big villain to die. It is impossible for him to die as soon as he appears. That would be too inconsistent with the identity of the version BOSS, and it would also lack drama and epic feeling.
Dramatic and epic? Haha, then let me prepare an epic drama for you.
The brothers work together to awaken the dormant heroic soul, defeat the evil devil at a critical moment, seize victory, and save the world - isn't this a dramatic enough plot?
But speaking of brothers - I wonder how Arthas is doing now.
