Rise of the blood elves

The spire of the Tower of Sunfury is made purely of special crystals with excellent magic affinity, otherwise it would not be able to carry the massive energy of the Sunwell.Between several giant crystals floating out of thin air around the spire, there is an energy-guiding array densely covered with complex magic runes full of geometric beauty, looming in the shape of a ring. Every time the energy of the well flows through, it glows golden. A dazzling light that complements light purple.

But at this time, this complex magic circle had completely changed its appearance. It was wrapped in an eerie black and green fog. Every time it flickered, the influence of the mental spell became even greater.

The Burning Legion has completely taken control of the Tower of Sunfury.

"Lich"

Angmar narrowed his eyes slightly, looking past the obstacles of the undead and staring at the lich.

The lich looked very familiar to him.

At least Angmar was certain that it was not Kel'Thuzad.The former member of the Kirin Tor Council of Six's lich body was reshaped by the energy of the Sunwell.Being so close, no matter how much magic power fluctuations are suppressed, Angmar can immediately detect its existence through the essence of the holy tree in his body, and vice versa.

It took Angmar a while to realize. Wasn't that the lich that had attacked Quel'Danas with Dar'Kan before, and was burned to ashes by the awakened Anveena?

Unexpectedly, it has returned to the world.

Liches are very troublesome high-level members of the Scourge. They were all spellcasters such as mages and warlocks during their lives.Among them there are many "poor people" such as Kel'Thuzad who went on a path of no return because of their longing for forbidden knowledge, and finally woke up but regretted it. But most of them were beings who were forcibly resurrected by the Scourge and used for their own purposes.

They have almost completely retained their knowledge and powerful spell-casting abilities in life, and have also obtained a large amount of necromancy knowledge from Ner'zhul. They are not only proficient in arcane magic and necromancy spells, but also understand some shadow spells by analogy. They are beyond the level of mages of the same level. A powerful spellcaster.

The most difficult thing is that they can inject their souls into the phylacteries due to the convenience of form-shaping necromantic spells.As long as the phylactery is still there, even if the body is completely destroyed, it can be resurrected.In the official history, Kel'Thuzad used this method to return to the world after being killed by the Warriors of the Silver Dawn.However, after its second resurrection, it lost the shape shaped by the essence of the Sunwell, and its strength declined severely.

Looking at the lich in front of him, it should be the same.

In front of the Lich, stood hundreds of blood elves.The Speaker of the Silver Moon Council, Randolph Suiyun, Candyris and several other magisters who carried out the prince's search and rescue mission, as well as Leanda Sunstrider, were among them.On the periphery are the family armed forces under the conservative nobles wearing messy armors. They all have dull expressions, as if they are under mind control.

The truth was about to come out, and Angmar couldn't help but tighten the rune sword in his hand.

Behind the conservative nobles, there is indeed the shadow of the Burning Legion.Judging from the number of undead and demons in Silver Moon City, they must have been hidden from everyone in the past half month. The military, magisters, and civilians have been using the conservative nobles to plan this sudden attack. Until today, they finally suddenly attacked and completely destroyed Silver Moon. Moon City was under control.

Angmar only regretted that he wasted half a month in a coma and did not return in time.

While he was thinking, the demons and undead in the open space outside the Royal Court of the Tower of Sunfury launched an attack.Hundreds of demon guards, dozens of huge doomsday guards, and hundreds of resurrected blood elves were pressing forward unstoppably.There were an indistinguishable number of gargoyles swooping down from the sky.

"Withdraw to the building complex" Angmar said loudly, put the obstructing rune sword back into the enchanted space bag, and concentrated on weaving long-range spells.

Following Idonis's order, the mages immediately launched a spell bombardment to intercept the enemy.

These mages come from all over the Kingdom of Quel'Thalas and are transferred to Sunchaser Island by the prince to be responsible for the training of new apprentices. Their strength ranges from mid-level elites to top-level elites, and they can be called the elite among the elite.

The lethality of any mage cannot be underestimated, let alone hundreds of mages combined.Fireballs, ice arrows, rain of fire and ice, and arcane missiles were flying all over the sky. The tens of meters between the two sides were turned into a death zone by various brilliant spells, but all of them had terrifying lethality. The demons turned into Ashes, the undead turned into ice sculptures, the road shattered, and gravel flew.

No "creature" could get involved, and even the mages themselves had to retreat a certain distance to avoid being affected.

The battlefield then shifted, from the open space of the royal court to the unfinished narrow roads between the buildings. There were houses under construction with scaffolding everywhere and building materials piled up.At any rate, this can be regarded as a reliable means of covering the flanks, ensuring that only one side is exposed to the enemy.

There are Doom Guards flying high, trying to launch a surprise attack from the air with the gargoyles, but their large size makes them good living targets, and their flight is not sensitive, so they are quickly shot down by focused fire. Just aim at them. Their fragile wings can cause them to lose balance and fall, resulting in death and injury. If they are lucky, they will also kill groups of undead.

Under the effective command of several magisters, the two hundred mages kept pouring out spells at the same frequency. Half of them chanted spells and cast spells, and the other half prepared for the next wave of bombardments. They fought and retreated, and the undead never got a chance to get close.

But such level of spellcasting has almost exhausted the magic power of many mages.This is the case for elite-level mages. Their total mana power is not much. The terrifying spell rain created regardless of the mana consumption is a nightmare for enemies charging in groups, but it can only last for a short time.

Suddenly, Angmar felt a great sense of crisis in her heart.

The temperature within a radius of tens of meters dropped sharply, and a freezing wind blew in an instant. Tiny ice cones continued to form, and then came a heavy rainstorm.Angmar and five or six magisters standing in the front row were all covered.

The lich took action.

No matter how inexperienced a scholar-type magister is, he will not be so stupid as not to be wary of the most threatening enemy in the distance.Mana shield, lava body protection, and various defensive spells appeared immediately, resisting this magical attack in time.

"legend"

Miraculous Na's mana shield was rippled by the ice pick, and the mana all over his body disappeared quickly like running water. Angmar judged the opponent's general strength and complained in his heart.

The Lich's spell strength is only slightly higher than that of the top-level epic. It should be due to the fact that the new form after resurrection is not as good as the original one.Even so, after a large-scale killing spell, the magisters were not injured, and their mana was greatly depleted, which was worse than the situation in Angmar.

Everyone continued to retreat until they exited the building complex and returned to the Garden Market, which had been reduced to a sea of ​​flames.

A wave of arrows roared past his ears, harvesting an entire row of pursuing demons, announcing the arrival of reinforcements.Angmar glanced back. Hundreds of Eversong Rangers who came from Qingfeng Village, led by Magister Emineel, came nearby.Arrows rained down one after another, and then they quickly drew out their swords and protected them in front of the mages who had reached the bottom of their magic power, preparing to engage the enemy in hand-to-hand combat.

"Don't step forward and be careful of the enemy's legendary caster." He warned the Yongsong Ranger loudly, asking everyone to form a defensive formation.

"How is the situation?" Emineel came to Angmar and cast a spell to knock down a doomsday guard and asked quickly.

The rune sword suddenly appeared in Angmar's palm, and he lunged forward ten meters. With a sword speed that was so fast that it was difficult to trace, he killed a demon guard who thought he was a weak mage and was approaching desperately.Then she returned to the female mage and replied: "The Tower of Sunfury is still under the control of the enemy. The number of enemies is at least three times ours, and there are also legendary level lichs sitting here. We need more reinforcements."

Emineel's eyes were full of surprise, and she couldn't help but look at him twice, and nodded and said: "The battle on the Arendal River defense line is over, and General Lor'themar's troops will arrive soon."

Hearing this, Angmar felt a little relieved.

The battle in Xicheng District should have come to an end. Mages continued to pour out from the new city gate and came to the Garden Market to join the crowd.This was simply a chaotic battle, with thousands of crazy workers attacking all living creatures within sight; countless resurrectors and demons came from all directions, causing endless pressure.

"If you hold on a little longer, reinforcements will be coming soon."

Angmar cast an Arcana Explosion, clearing a few meters around him, and then started a close combat with the rune sword in hand.The resurrected man was killed in one blow, and the demon guard with unparalleled strength fell into a disadvantage due to the combination of his spells and sword skills.He walked through the enemy formation like a ghost, waiting for opportunities to strike with two swords from time to time, and occasionally using extremely efficient low-mana consumption spells to kill the enemy.When in danger, he flashes into the friendly formation, takes a breather, casts a powerful large-scale killing spell to clear the way forward, and then continues with the sword to launch the next round of offensive.

All the magic power was on the verge of being exhausted, and the magisters who had reached the end of their strength were all shocked. They were shocked that Angmar, who only had elementary epic power, had far more magic power than them, and the power of his spells was not inferior at all.Moreover, he has such a powerful melee combat ability, and is not afraid of melee combat like ordinary mages.

Not only these magisters, but also the rangers were stunned.The man with poor martial arts skills but excellent physical fitness who killed dozens of undead demons with a heavy one-handed sword was actually a mage.

Someone recognized Angmar and was even more surprised.

"He is the prince's advisor"

He was actually the third-level magister who had risen rapidly recently and was overshadowed by the rumor that he had gained his current status only because of the prince's deliberate favoritism.

During the battle, Angmar had just dodged the powerless sword of a resurrected guard, when the sacred tree's intense cry of pain rang out in the spiritual world.

His movements froze and he shouted that it was not good.

holy tree sassala

Someone is attacking the sacred tree Saas'ala

Immediately afterwards, Angmar felt the essence of the Holy Tree in his body burning. It seemed that the Holy Tree had been injected with a huge amount of Sunwell energy, which indirectly affected him.An angry emotion came to his mind, and through the inseparable connection between the two, he could clearly sense the raging anger in the heart of the incarnation of the Sunwell.

"Death, devil" Anweina's voice sounded in his heart.

It was she who took action.Sure enough, the pain of the sacred tree subsided.

Angmar was relieved at least. The undead must have launched an attack on Quel'Danas Island at the same time.He didn't know what was happening on Quel'Danas Island, but with Anveena guarding it, nothing would be a problem.

He couldn't help but worry about the condition of the sacred tree.Looking at the spiers of the Tower of Sunfury shining brightly in the night, he only wanted to quickly solve the trouble before him and then return to the Sunwell Temple.

Subconsciously, Angmar took two steps back and once again avoided the attack of the resurrected guard.The undead with extremely poor balance missed the blow, and the long sword came out of his hand without picking it up. He opened his bloody mouth and rushed towards him with staggering steps.

Angmar raised his rune sword to help the victim escape.

Next second

The body of the resurrected guard expanded rapidly and fell apart with a "bang" sound, with chunks of flesh flying everywhere.A huge figure emerged from it and appeared in front of Angmar.It had a haggard and pale face, with a sarcastic smile on its face. The huge wings behind it covered the moonlight, and the shadow completely enveloped him.

A big hand with extremely sharp nails stretched out, and before he could react in time, he grabbed Angmar's neck. His spells were effortlessly blocked in his mouth, and his thoughts were blocked by the evil energy that followed. Stunned.

The Dread Lord looked to the north and said thoughtfully: "Balnazar failed."

It turned back, with a hint of joy in its cunning eyes.

"But it doesn't matter, at least I caught you, lucky blood elf."
