Part-time BOSS

Let me go, my second brother is a bit fast. Did Xiaoqiang win him so quickly?

Murphy sat in the town hall and thought silently.

But the world announcements continued to sound.

Twenty minutes later——

[World Announcement: Storm Prince Varian defeats the Dread Lord Balnazzar...]

Huh? Why Balnazzar? Shouldn't it be Mal'Ganis?

Another thirty minutes passed——

[World Announcement: Storm Prince Varian defeats Frost Ghost Lord Cyprus...]

"Damn, this Varian is a bit fierce. This is the rhythm that will completely defeat the Lich King."

At this moment, in the tavern of Winterfell, everyone is busy with their own things, but in fact, almost everyone is paying attention to the developments of the world announcement.

Not only Winterfell, but almost all the players in the game are paying attention to the development of the Battle for the Frozen Throne.

The original version of Icecrown Citadel had a total of twelve bosses, but that was already the complete form of the Scourge Legion in its later stages of development. Nowadays, the Lich King has just been born, and it is obvious that it has not yet managed such a huge force. Even Icecrown Citadel only had one base built, but now there are only six bosses in this copy of 'The Frozen Throne', which is less than half.

Already got four! Varian thought as he stepped onto the ice stairs. Looking back, he saw that only three of the 85 adventurers he brought with him were killed.

From this point of view, it should be possible to bring most of the combat power to the Lich King.

BOSS No. 5——

However, when everyone came to the transfer platform in front of them, the BOSS stationed here disappeared, leaving only a group of mobs delaying time.

what's the situation?

Everyone was a little puzzled.

Varian (Prince of Storms): "Star Trace, who is BOSS No. 5?"

Although it was my first time to conquer the Frozen Throne dungeon, I still knew a bit about the inside of the dungeon. Adventurers had already sneaked in and conducted investigations.

Star Trace (Rogue): "Winter is coming for Death Knight."

It's him? Varian was speechless. Of the four people who came to Northrend with him, except for Elsa who defected to him, the remaining three all betrayed.

Unexpectedly, they all came to the Lich King to find employment.

But it doesn't matter, a mere death knight is nothing.

After eliminating the undead mobs on the transit platform, Varian led Kel'Thuzad, Princess Elsa, and the players who followed him to the location of the final BOSS - the Icecrown Platform.

This is the highest point of the entire Frozen Throne. On the platform of the peak, a huge block of ice stands here, exuding the chill of death. Through the ice, you can vaguely see a set of armor sealed in it. , the most conspicuous among them is the helmet. In the eye sockets of the helmet, green evil flames and blue death fire are emitting. The blue and green flames look towards the outside of the ice as if they have consciousness.

And winter is approaching, and now he is standing next to the ice, wielding a giant battering ram and smashing it against the ice.

Winter is coming (Death Knight): "Master, the enemy has already come to kill us. If we don't take action, it will be too late. Come out and merge with me!"

As he spoke, he hammered hard again, but the huge steel hammer hit the ice without leaving even a mark.

Gul'dan (Lich King): "Idiot, this ice crown was created by the power of an artifact. Without Frostmourne, this ice cage cannot be broken."

Winter is Coming (Death Knight): "What? Gan!"

While the two were talking, the sound of chaotic footsteps came from under the steps.

Varian took the lead and attacked, and everyone quickly surrounded the Lich King. They looked at Winter's Approach with a sledgehammer in shock. This guy stopped guarding the gate and came to smash ice cubes.

Varian (Prince of Storms): "That's it. Lich King, you intend to destroy the world - you intend to subvert the Alliance - well, your evil plan will be shattered today."

Varian really doesn't know what the Lich King Gul'dan is up to, but it doesn't matter, it's just not a good thing anyway.

Gul'dan (Lich King): "..."

Gul'dan is so depressed. Ever since he came to the Sky World, his life has been very difficult. First, he failed in the first battle of the Black Gate. After the Black Hand was killed, the warlock's voice in the tribe was completely destroyed by the Doomhammer. , directly changed from the mastermind behind the scenes to the hard worker.

Then he led the fleet to find the Tomb of Sargeras. He was so complacent that he thought he was sure to win. However, he was inexplicably attacked by the Black Dragon Legion, and the ship was destroyed and everyone died.

After finally landing on the shore, I approached Emperor Shenwu, thinking of working hard and gathering some soldiers to complete my mission. Unexpectedly, he changed hands and was sold by Emperor Shenwu.

His soul floated to the Twisting Nether and was tortured by Kil'jaeden. He was thrown here to become the Lich King. He thought that he could finally take revenge on the world by concentrating on his last breath, but he didn't expect that the chosen sword-wielder didn't play according to the routine at all. Once again, he seduced Long Mian's coalition forces, and then directly kicked the door down...

At this moment, Gul'dan couldn't help but have deep self-doubt in his heart. Did he, the evil boss, really fail like this?

It can't be done, it absolutely can't be done! I know no tricks, I am wise and resourceful, I have unparalleled strategies.

The reason why I failed was just fate (the player), but even fate couldn't stop me.

Gul'dan (Lich King): "Varian, your behavior surprised me. You dared to face your master. You are indeed brave, although this kind of bravery is very stupid. What are you going to do next? Destroy it. Me? Hum, this is definitely not a choice you would make. I know your inner desires very well. When you held Frostmourne for a short time, I got a glimpse of your inner thoughts.

Power, you crave power, right? Hahaha, then come and get it. In this frozen cage, the Sealer's artifact, the Crown of Control, contains countless wisdom of death. If you have the courage, come and seize this power. "

Varian did not speak, but looked at the adventurers on the side.

"Can you see the true identity of this Lich King?"

Lich King (????), world level five, level 99, health value? ? ? ? .

This thing in front of me is obviously different from ordinary BOSS.

As soon as several adventurers reported the information they saw, Varian couldn't help but frown.

Anyway, let's get rid of this death knight first.

If you leave your post, you will also lose the increase in attributes of the guarding BOSS. The winter is coming before you and it only has more than 80,000 HP, which is not at the same level as Conan the Barbarian King.

Winter is coming, but it’s decisive.

He just knelt down - literally knelt down.

Winter is coming (Death Knight): "Your Highness Varian, I surrender. I turn from darkness to light. I swear allegiance to you. I am sworn in with the evil Lich King. Sister Nineteen, please help me. You Do you still remember that I took you to defeat the BOSS?"

Varian (Prince of Storms): "I accept your allegiance, now get out of the way Prince Winter is Coming, don't block my way."

Winter was approaching and he immediately ducked aside obediently.

Varian drew out Frostmourne, resisted the Lich King's broken thoughts, and struck the ice coffin with his sword.

As the ice coffin was shattered, the death armor sealed inside was also scattered to the ground.

The epic equipment all over the ground was glowing with purple light. Among them was a helmet of command, which was shining with a dazzling red light - an artifact!

[Helm of Dominance (helmet/artifact)

Item introduction: No one knows the specific origin of this helmet.

Some say it was secretly forged by the Demon King and was a secret weapon used to destroy the world.

Some say it comes from the underworld and is a relic of the God of Death.

Others say it is an immortal artifact created by an ancient evil god.

However, no matter what the truth is, there is undoubtedly great power and wisdom hidden in this helmet. However, if you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight. The soul of the person who wears this helmet is destined to suffer eternal horrific torture. 】

Looking at the helmet in his hand, Varian looked solemn.

He couldn't see the data text on the helmet, but he could feel that the soul in the helmet was looking directly at him through the slits in the eyes.

Kel'Thuzad (Arch Mage): "Prince Varian, are you sure you want to wear it? The Crown of Dominance contains the soul of the Lich King. Once you put it on, you will inevitably start a battle of souls with the Lich King. The battle, once you fail, your soul will be destroyed and your body will be occupied and controlled."

Varian looked solemn, "I know this very well, Master Kel'Thuzad."

Kel'Thuzad (Arch Mage): "How about letting me shoulder this burden? I have a very in-depth study of necromancy. I have a higher chance of winning the battle of souls." Kel'Thuzad suddenly said.

Varian glanced at Kel'Thuzad, who had a calm expression on his face.

"I admit that I do covet the endless wisdom of death magic in the Crown of Dominance, but it is just academic curiosity and desire. If you give it to me, I will definitely help you protect the storm after the matter is completed. Of the Kingdom.”

Kel'Thuzad had a sincere expression on his face, but the adventurers around him immediately began to wink at Varian crazily.

"Don't listen to him, King Wa, Mr. Ke is secretive."

"Boss Ke, you are too confident. You don't have the aura of the protagonist. If you dare to wear it, you will be 100% controlled."

"That's right, this kind of thing must be handled by King Wa."

"Mr. Ke, stop pretending. If you really win the battle of souls, you will definitely become the Lich King again. King Wa will definitely be controlled by you by then."

Kel'Thuzad was furious after being told that this group of adventurers had absolutely no respect.

Varian smiled at him.

Varian (Prince of Storms): "Master Kel'Thuzad, thank you for your kindness, but the important task of guarding the Kingdom of Stormwind must be shouldered by me. Everyone, can you please do me a favor? If I am defeated in the Battle of Souls , if you are really controlled by Gul'dan, please kill me, completely destroy my body, and don't let me do terrible things."

After Varian finished speaking, he slowly sat down on the base left by the broken ice coffin. He closed his eyes and suddenly put the helmet on his head. A strong force of ice swept him quickly. Covering the package, in the blink of an eye, the ice coffin was formed again, but this time, Varian could be clearly seen inside.

A battle for the soul is about to begin.

[World Announcement: In 1439 of the Sky Era, Prince of Storms Varian Wrynn successfully defeated the incarnation of the Lich King and seized the Crown of Dominance. In order to gain powerful power, Varian resolutely wore the Crown of Dominance. , however, the soul of the previous generation Lich King hidden in it did not die, and started a soul battle with it.

Prince Varian's body was frozen, and his soul was caught in the battle. No one knew how long this battle of souls would last, and no one knew who would win the final victory. This event has been recorded in the Chronicle of the Sky. 】

Murphy sighed. Varian finally wore the crown of domination, but unlike Arthas in history, he did so as a hero.

Once Varian wins the battle for souls and seizes control of the Crown of Dominance, he will become the true king, commanding thousands of undead armies and protecting Stormwind City.

I just don’t know if the people of Stormwind Kingdom will accept such a king at that time?

after one day--

Aidan (Prince of Alterac): "Lazidanan, I have always seen your hard work. You once fought side by side with me to drive out the orcs, and you also went to Northrend with me to explore this cold world." of wasteland.

Your loyalty and perseverance have been proven. Now, as the leader of the Dragon Knights and the prince of Alterac, I make you the Lord of Winterfell and guard Northrend. "

Rachidanan: "It is my honor to serve you, Your Highness."

Rachidanan maintained his online acting skills as always. Even in such an exciting moment, he still looked normal and his knightly etiquette was meticulous.

"This Frost Dragon Tooth is a trophy from my defeat of Boleleus. Now I give it to you. I hope you can use it to protect this land and its people."

Ratchidanan took the sword.

A burst of warm applause broke out immediately.

Murphy dragged Ratchidanan's avatar under the icon of Winterfell in the territory system, and the sealing ceremony was successfully completed.

Murphy looked at the spectators again, "Everyone, I'm going back to Alterac tomorrow. Have you already thought about where you're going?"

These rescued NPCs have different levels of strength, but the lowest are at the elite level. Murphy has been trying to win over them in the past two days, giving them houses, land, gold coins and gifts, and successfully brought half of them under his command.

There were also a few people who were willing to accompany them temporarily, and overall they gained a lot.
