Volume 9: Disaster Chapter 563: Mount Hyjal Strategy
Murphy looked at the introduction of the new expansion pack and couldn't help but feel heavy in his heart.
The introduction of the Burning Legion's appearance this time is much more terrifying than the Scourge. Just from the various new versions of the game mechanics, it can be seen that it is completely incomparable to the Scourge.
The Scourge has only one goal - to summon the Burning Legion.
It can be said that he exudes the aura of a vanguard from beginning to end.
However, the goal of the Burning Legion is to destroy the world, and the appearance alone is completely different.
Moreover, the Burning Legion's strategy is to attack from all sides, as if to start a world war.
Not only that, the supporting mechanism of the Scourge is the Cult of the Damned, which is just a collection of evil cults that secretly carry out some biological and chemical attacks, secretly poisoning and spreading the plague of the undead, and they dare not confront the countries head-on.
However, the Burning Legion will launch a frontal attack on all fronts. Judging from the introduction of the game mechanics, it seems that they will launch attacks on all factions.
Launch the so-called expedition of the Burning Legion.
Murphy estimated that the size of the Burning Legion expeditionary force was at least over 100,000 troops. Since it was aimed at an entire camp, it should have the paper strength to at least destroy a camp.
This is not an undead army that is like cannon fodder, but a real demon army. The quality of the Burning Legion's troops is not comparable to that of the Scourge.
It seems that this version will last for a very long time. Judging from the information, there will definitely be more than one Burning Legion expeditionary force, but they will be sent out continuously.
Game mechanic 4, Archimonde's world-destroying operation, involves an army of millions of demons.
A powerful fourth-level demon of world-destruction led millions of demons to launch an attack. I am afraid that none of the four major camps alone can resist it.
However, although the information says that no one knows where Archimonde's attack target is, Murphy guessed that it is most likely the World Tree located on Mount Hyjal, just like in history.
We can make some preparations for this in advance.
If it is still like in history, with the three major camps - no, now there are four major camps - joining forces to defend Mount Hyjal, they can probably still fight Archimonde. As long as they delay long enough and finally summon a large wave of ancient elves to blow Archimonde to death, they can still win the war.
The scripts are ready-made...
No, this time the plan might not be so easy to implement. You know, there are also players involved in the Burning Legion. Since Dia Pineapple plays the game so well, he must be very familiar with the plot of the game's history and will definitely remind Archimonde to be careful of those ancient elves.
This will cause trouble.
What if Archimonde doesn't fall for it? No one can defeat him head-on.
Even with his strength as the King of Ancient Dragons, he could not say that he was certain of victory. After all, Archimonde controlled the power of chaos and was the nemesis of the ancient dragon body.
However, it is not completely without chance. Archimonde's holy armor can also be restrained by his own super ancient dragon lightning.
Whether you can win or not, it seems the only way to know is by fighting.
Murphy was thinking when, beep, beep, beep, the computer suddenly started ringing.
I opened QQ and took a look, and saw that they were messages from Godwin, Emperor Shenwu, and Badao Wuqing.
Godwin: Brother Aidan, you have seen the official announcement of the new version. This time it's not easy. This is the Burning Legion. Archimonde is not someone that loser like Gul'dan can compare to . Come online quickly. We have to discuss how to deal with it.
The Divine Emperor: Brother Aidan, my think tank has just analyzed the contents of the new expansion. They believe that the Burning Legion's target of attack is most likely Mount Hyjal. The night elves have limited manpower, and our Centaur Empire will definitely be the main force at that time. It will be difficult to deal with. I am still a little worried about fighting Archimonde.
I still need your assistance this time. Let's discuss it when we have time. Don't worry, since you are willing to help, you will definitely be rewarded. You won't help in vain.
Ba Dao Wu Qing: Brother Aidan, do you want to discuss the Burning Legion? You Alliance have had enough by fighting the Lich King, and this time we have to fight Archimonde, so we, the Horde, should have some soup too. If you see this, please reply to the message immediately.
Mo Fei thought to himself, he has become so popular now, why does everyone come to him for consultation?
It seems that it is because of his identity as the King of Ancient Dragons. If he wants to fight Archimonde head-on, he definitely needs someone who can stand up to the challenge.
I guess no one else has this confidence except him.
Unless he has no interest in joining the war, he can't avoid it.
Mo Fei thought that there was no need to go through so much trouble, so he directly booked a room and brought all three people in.
Looking at the three very different avatars in the chat room, Murphy couldn't help but laugh.
Godwin’s avatar is that of the Archangel of Light, Ruthless Blade’s avatar is that of a domineering orc, seemingly from Warhammer 40K, and the avatar of the Great Emperor Shenwu is more interesting, as it is actually an ancient-style avatar of an ancient emperor, very similar to Qin Shi Huang.
Ba Dao Wu Qing: Let's discuss, everyone, how to deal with Archimonde. We are all faction leaders, and we cannot avoid this kind of thing.
Emperor Shenwu: What else can I say? It is our duty to defeat Archimonde and save the world. Besides, the scripts are ready-made. We can just do what happened in history.
Just gather all your forces and wait for Archimonde to arrive at Mount Hyjal.
Godwin: Should we attack the Broken Isles directly? Since we already know the enemy's position and the Burning Legion is constantly sending troops, why should we give the enemy a chance to gather troops? There are only tens of thousands of demons on the Broken Isles now. If our four major camps join forces, it won't be a problem to gather an army of two million. By then, we can pile them up and kill them.
Aidan: It's not that easy. Although there are only tens of thousands of demons, they will surely keep increasing. It will take us at least three or four days to gather our forces and kill them. By then, I'm afraid there will be more than 100,000 or even 200,000 demons.
There are also a large number of undead troops on the island, brought there by Tichondrius. There are at least hundreds of thousands of them.
Moreover, our transportation capacity is limited. We only transported 300,000 people to Death Beach last time. Even if we increase the scale this time, 600,000 at most will be enough.
At that time, it will be 600,000 against 300,000 or 400,000, and the enemy will be a powerful force like demons. In addition, with the presence of Archimonde, a world-destroying BOSS, it is likely to be a disastrous situation.
Archimonde has holy armor, so it is difficult for ordinary attacks and magic to cause much damage.
In the history of World of Warcraft, the Alliance and the Horde once joined forces to attack the Broken Isles, but they were defeated miserably. Varian died on the Broken Shore at that time. How could such a loser's script be copied?
I think it would be better to just do as the Great Emperor said and wait and see at Mount Hyjal. By then the night elves will have to join the battle. With Tyrande and Malfurion joining the fight, and the ancient elves self-destructing, it will be much safer.
This is what Murphy thinks is the most reliable strategy. To fight this kind of plot battle, of course, the largest possible force must be assembled. The more people the better, and it will also be easier for adventurers from the four major camps to join the battle. By then, with two million troops from the four major camps, plus two million adventurers, four million people will make it impossible for you to lose.
With these cannon fodders to attract firepower, you can attack Archimonde to your heart's content, and your chances of winning will greatly increase.
Godwin: But is it possible that Archimonde will attack other places ? After all, the official said that no one knows Archimonde's attack target. Maybe history has been changed. As far as I know, Archimonde seems to want to absorb the power of the World Tree. You know, there is more than one World Tree in this world.
Emperor Shenwu: Impossible, my think tank has analyzed it, Archimonde's target is not the World Tree, at least not entirely the World Tree, - but the Well of Eternity under the World Tree.
Godwin: Didn't the Well of Eternity explode 10,000 years ago? How come the Well of Eternity still exists?
Emperor Shenwu: During the War of the Ancients, on the eve of the Well of Eternity's explosion, Illidan collected seven bottles of water from the Well of Eternity before the Well of Eternity was destroyed.
When the war was over and the night elves retreated to Mount Hyjal to recuperate, Illidan discovered a lake on the top of the mountain. He poured three bottles of water from the Well of Eternity into the lake, turning the lake into the second Well of Eternity.
The intention was to use this new Well of Eternity to enhance the magical power of the night elves in their fight against the Burning Legion.
Everyone knows what happened next. Illidan was imprisoned. In order to cover up the arcane energy emitted by the new Well of Eternity and prevent it from attracting more demons, Malfurion, Tyrande, Cenarius and the guardian dragons planted a World Tree on the lake. This is the origin of the first World Tree Nordrassil. And because of the influence of the power of the Well of Eternity, Nordrassil is also the most powerful of the World Trees, containing extremely powerful arcane energy.
Godwin: Oh, I see.
Badao Wuqing: Haha, Godwin, you guy who doesn’t read the information, are you afraid that Archimonde will steal your golden tree?
Godwin: Humph, of course, the Golden Tree was also planted from the seeds of the World Tree, so it is also the World Tree, and the power contained in the Golden Tree is not necessarily less than that of Nordrassil.
Aidan: I don't think you need to worry about this. Archimonde's goal is to absorb the power of the World Tree and the Well of Eternity, and then become powerful enough to surpass Sargeras. The arcane energy contained in Nordrassil can be absorbed by demons, but the golden tree contains the power of the Holy Light, which is completely incompatible with fel energy . I think the world tree that Archimonde is least likely to attack is the Golden Holy Tree.
Godwin: Well, that makes sense.
The Great Emperor: That's settled then. We'll go directly to Mount Hyjal to build a defense line and wait for Archimonde to come and hit the wall.
Ba Dao Wu Qing: Sure, but you have to say hello to Malfurion, Tyrande and the others, and don’t wait for me to bring the Horde army over to get beaten.
Godwin: It's because you orcs have committed so many evil things and served as the running dogs of the Burning Legion to invade this world. We in the Alliance will not worry about being attacked by the night elves.
Badao Wuqing: Damn, I’m not the only one who has been a villain. The Undead Alliance was still a villain force last month. Don’t think I don’t know that the Lich King was created by your Alliance.
Godwin: The Lich King is Gul'dan. Varian was just possessed by his body by accident. Strictly speaking, he is still the victim. Didn't Gul'dan also come from your tribe? You can't get rid of this blame.
The Great Emperor: You are right. When Gul'dan was working under me, I knew he was not a good guy. He kept shouting that he wanted to dig the Tomb of Sargeras. Fortunately, I killed him decisively, otherwise the Burning Legion would have arrived two years earlier.
Badao Wuqing: Damn, are you guys mistaken? Don't think I don't know that Varian put on the Crown of Domination on his own initiative, and Gul'dan was expelled from the tribe by me a long time ago. Our tribe is not to blame for this, but Varian. It's so easy for him to whitewash himself, just because he is a prince. He killed so many people and made such a big fuss. Who would not have slept for no reason?
I think your alliance is just a feudal dynasty ruled by a group of corrupt nobles. They don't regard the common people as human beings at all. It can't be compared with our big tribe, a fair society where meritocracy prevails and strength is everything.
And the Emperor, you were a villain in the past, and you fought a big battle with the night elves. When you couldn't win, you just admitted defeat and joined them. How dare you criticize me?
Emperor Shenwu: This is called an open conspiracy. With the huge power of the Centaur Empire, how dare the Dark Night Alliance not accept me? I am in an alliance with them because I respect them.
Godwin: Hahahaha, you’re right. I just want to ask you if you are angry.
Murphy was speechless. These guys played the roles of great chiefs, kings, and Centaur emperors in the game with great dignity, but in reality they were just a bunch of middle-aged boys, middle-aged young men, and middle-aged men.
Aidan: Okay, everyone, stop joking and let's get down to business. Even if we have determined the strategy, the Battle of Mount Hyjal may not be easy. Archimonde this time is different from the previous bosses. He has holy armor, which means that in the system's judgment, he is a god-like existence. The fourth level of Annihilation is terrifying enough, and he has the attributes of the version boss. I think we still have to think carefully about how to deal with him.
I'm afraid this time we can't just rely on adventurers to kill them all.
Godwin: What are you afraid of? We have three, no, five legendary heroes.
Ruthless Blade: Five legendary heroes? Who are they? The Great Emperor is one, Tyrandemar and Furion are two, that's only three, who else? Illidan? Isn't he still imprisoned?
Godwin: Hahaha, of course it's me and brother Aidan. We are both legends. Aren't you envious? After all, you are the chief and the leader of the faction, but you are not even a legend. Don't you feel a little embarrassed?
Badao Wuqing: Damn it, I'm busy with tribal affairs and don't have time to finish the story. I'll kill Archimonde later, and then I'll get the legend. Just wait and see, Archimonde's head will definitely belong to my tribe.
Godwin: I think you want to let Old Roar take the head. Do you, a fake chief, dare to go up and die?
