Chapter 466 Love and Family
A small island sits inconspicuously on the edge of the Hillsbrad Foothills.
At the edge of Arathi Highlands, between the dwarven lands, wetlands, and Khaz Modan, lies an ancient rock bridge... below which flows a river and a natural harbor, protecting humanity's ancestral land.
Dividing the original territories of humans and dwarves...
The earliest Saldor Bridge and the entire Wall of Thoradin were originally suspected to be the work of the ancestors of the dwarves, meaning that the dwarves may have been the earlier inhabitants of what humans call their ancestral land.
Of course, the forest trolls have even more to say...
After all, before the Big Bang, trolls once ruled over all of Azeroth, and they were the original inhabitants.
Unfortunately, all dynasties fade away with time, and those who don't strive will only become marginalized. In Hillsbrad Foothills, this beautiful human-occupied homeland, and around Atonement Isle, if there were no undead or the threat of war, it would truly be a paradise for anglers.
Fishing master Nach & Pat once mentioned in their fishing guide that rare blackmouth fish and thorny algae are abundant near the bay. The seabed here is shallow, and the ebb and flow of the tides make it a sheltered harbor rich in resources and lush with aquatic plants.
While large ships may find it difficult to enter, the pleasures of boating in small boats are undeniable, a ray of light for humanity...
When Old Mograine, Ithanryn, Duane, Abidis, Tirion Fordring, and others were young, they gathered in Southshore to discuss how to deal with the undead in the Northshire Plague. They jokingly remarked that if there were no war or plague, they'd retire in Southshore...
When Alexandros and Mograine the Elder arrived at Atonement Isle, they saw light emanating from Southshore... In the dark clouds of the sky, layers of light seemed to approach, dispelling the darkness.
Suddenly, a memory flashed through Lao Mo's mind of a time he spent with his old friend at a hotel in Nanhai Town...
ten years?
Twenty years?
Or thirty years?
The Dark Portal opened, and three world-ending wars ensued.
He found himself back at the very spot where he and his old friend had set off years ago... Memories of the past flashed through Old Mo's mind. Looking down, he noticed the artifact in his hand: the Fallen Ashbringer.
When he was surrounded, the rebellious son Renault attacked him from behind, and this artifact pierced his body. From then on, the Holy Sword became a death sword similar to the Plaguebringer. The Dark Gem, which had been purified by the blessing of the Paladins and was originally a Naaru essence crystal drained of its energy, was once again filled with darkness.
Legendary weapons roam between darkness and light, always retaining a trace of humanity.
Like all the death knights of Blackwind Keep (Acherus), Old Mo felt the Lich King's control over the souls of all the powerful Scourge members weaken. This is why Kel'Thuzad, who never used to threaten his subordinates with sheer force, is now emphasizing the use of the Life Box to intimidate them.
Old Mo had secretly been in contact with people of Acherus's kind for some time...
Sassarian and Kuldira & the Weavers even made contact with the Argent Dawn after Abidis left Tyr's Hand.
The Argent Dawn, like the Alliance Vanguard, has a new leader... who is also an old friend of Mograine!
I have heard that the Knights of the Silver Hand have reunited, the Silver Crusade is taking shape, and the Holy Light will once again spread from the Church of the Holy Light, purifying the plague-stricken lands.
Everything was both heartening and exciting.
......
The leader of Acherus is both Mo's hope and his torment... He is uncertain whether the members of the Knights of the Ebon Blade can break free from the Lich King's control. Therefore, patience and exploration are necessary, including this operation.
......
The Ashbringer is no longer a puppet, at least not a puppet that only knows how to kill and seek revenge.
The moment he saw the old King Solas, he felt a deep empathy for him.
Not every father who places high hopes on his son but is betrayed and heartbroken can understand that sorrow and disappointment. Old Mo didn't understand his eldest son Renault's choice, but he already roughly knew why his eldest son Renault hated him back then.
Reno & Mograine had a long-standing connection with Scholomance, and Kel'Thuzad made a deal with them because his eldest son was jealous of his second son Darian's excellence.
Renault wanted to prove he was also a good paladin, but his eldest son harbored resentment over his opposition to the marriage of his eldest son to his adopted daughter, Sally Whitemane. There must have been someone within the Scarlet Crusade subtly influencing and guiding the foolish Renault so that he could inherit his position as Highlord and become the commander and leader of the Scarlet Monastery.
Perhaps my friend has already betrayed me...
The Silver Hand warriors who swore an oath of blood to save the people of Lordaeron, forming the Scarlet Crusade, have now become tools of the devil... harming, torturing, and inciting the last survivors...
Fighting against one's own people.
Old Mograine wasn't sure who the traitor was.
Maybe it's Duane, maybe it's Ethan Rien, maybe it's Abidis.
It could even be Tirion Fordring, the former high lord of Hearthglen and exiled friend, now the father of Tyrande Tirion Fordring, the paladin high lord and one of the leaders of the Silver Hand...
Old Mo never imagined that the current highest commander of the Scarlet Crusade, Saidan Dathorhan, wasn't actually himself...
After all, the shadow of the Dreadlord always operates in the shadows.
......
Faced with Alexandros & Mograine's explanation, the suppressed Thoras & Thorbain was filled with doubt. It even instinctively wanted to report Highlord Mograine, based on its death knightly nature...
Turning around, the great lich Kel'Thuzad floated in, followed by a large group of dangerous Scourge generals.
The next second, Solas seemed to realize what was happening.
It roared and charged toward the mountain-sized phantom monster, raising its giant axe to strike at the faceless phantom that was beyond human comprehension.
"Anyone who stops me will die!"
Solas leaped up and mounted the black skeletal warhorse.
Old Mograine followed closely behind, pulling on the reins, his red warhorse leaving bloody footprints on the ground.
Without further ado, the Legion of Death charged straight at the monsters...
Kel'Thuzad sneered, "Don't let its massive size fool you, it's all bloated. Kill it, and what the master wants is inside it... Hmm. Why does it seem like its energy has diminished considerably?"
Kel'Thuzad pointed to the phantom the size of a small hill and instructed his subordinates, "Destroy its core. This creature's core is indestructible and will never dissipate. We have already seen this in Northrend... Although this one is large, it is not in its complete form... There is no need to fear it."
As it spoke, the colossal lich, towering 10 meters tall, began casting a spell. With the dark incantation, its robes billowed without wind...
A black chain of magical energy, crackling with red lightning, shot out...
It was as if countless runic chains, similar to those binding the lich itself, shot out from a black magic circle. The difference was that the great lich was covered in blue and white, chilling necromantic runic chains... while the spirit-binding chains released from its death and decay magic circle were shrouded in black, coiling around the massive faceless void avatar like dark lightning.
The rampant Faceless One phantom, bound by Kel'Thuzad's seemingly fragile black chains, felt its power rapidly wither... not only its life force and mana, but even its once invincible Void and Shadow power was being absorbed and burned away...
[Absorbing Magic] The lich's vicious technique, which allows him to launch runic chains that bind his target, absorbing and converting all energy to nourish himself...
The High Lich has prepared skills specifically for dealing with void energy creatures... With the enhancement of its core orb, the Ice Soul Orb, as long as its magic power level remains higher than the target's, it's a one-sided battle of attrition...
This move, also known as the "Soul Balance & Death Judgment," is one of the new abilities granted to the Grand Lich King after his fusion awakening.
