Stormwind Wizard God-Chapter 598: Duke
Chapter 598 - Duke
Antonidas watched all this with despair on his face.
Is this the power of the ancient dragon at the top of the world?
Archmage Antonidas used all his strength, no, even the combined force of two top-level Kirin Tor councillors was no match for Nefarian! ?
The old mage suddenly noticed Kael'thas' anger.
The prince watched his good friend and colleague die, his handsome face twisted with anger.
However, when his chin was raised, he did not have the courage to look Nefarian in the face.
"Desecrator! Leave the Eye of Dalaran behind!"
The prince tried to attack Teron directly, but his magic was blocked by a death knight who flashed in front of Teron.
As if to vent his anger over his friend's death, the elven prince raised and spread his hands, which were filled with magical power. Almost at the same time, the death knight began to scream in pain, and his limbs were torn off one by one and separated from his torso. The shocking scene brought Antonidas back to consciousness.
Master Antonidas finally figured it out.
If he had not hit Nefarian directly, the Black Dragon King would have had no intention of intervening in the fight between them, the ant-like mortals.
This might be an opportunity, even if it is an opportunity gained at the mercy of the most powerful enemy!
"Kill all the Death Knights!" The old wizard's hair and beard were still standing tall.
Over there, Nefarian was leisurely opening the portal.
Here, another Kirin Tor senator teleported over and joined the fierce battle against the Death Knight.
Unfortunately, it's too late.
The three great wizards looked at the invaders with angry eyes. So what?
As Nefarian entered the portal, the Death Knights' shapes began to blur. The mages of Dalaran did not dare to follow them because they could clearly sense the might of more black dragons coming from the other side of the portal.
They couldn't be sure to what extent the Black Dragonflight and the Horde were cooperating.
If they continued to chase, they would run the risk of angering the black dragons, and they would most likely set the entire Violet Castle on fire before the Red Dragonflight arrived to rescue them.
Several more mages arrived, but like their Speaker, they fell into dejected silence.
Antonidas couldn't help but look at Kael'thas, the noble prince who was also regarded as a representative of the new generation. He suddenly understood why Duke was the hero of the Alliance instead of Kael'thas.
This elegant prince seems perfect, but he lacks the most crucial courage and determination.
When Neltharion was wreaking havoc on Lordaeron, the only two mortal heroes who dared to attack Neltharion head-on were Duke and Uther. Kael'thas was not there at the time!
However, Antonidas was not qualified to blame Prince Kael'thas, because he also lacked the courage to fight against a god-like enemy.
His heart was filled with loss. He and the other members of the Kirin Tor had always been the glory of Dalaran, the protectors of the city, but tonight he had failed.
He finally realized his own limits - it turned out that I am just a mortal with slightly stronger strength, and I don't have the courage to go to war with a god-like being.
He gazed at the starry sky, his heart filled with regret. After all, he watched his enemies take away the Eye of Dalaran, one of the most powerful artifacts in the City of Mages.
Antonidas knew all too well what the loss of this artifact would mean.
When Duke visited, he discussed this issue with Duke:
Eye of Dalaran represents supreme arcane power and can provide the most powerful source of power for the Dark Portal.
Scepter of Sargeras represents supreme control, which allows Ner'zhul to easily control every bit of power infused into the Dark Portal.
The Book of Medivh describes the space barrier structure of the entire planet Azeroth. With it, Ner'zhul can open the Dark Portal in any corner of the planet Azeroth, including the main city of every kingdom.
"Fortunately, we only lost an artifact." Antonidas once comforted himself.
Soon, he was slapped in the face.
A magical image was sent by a sentinel sent by the Red Dragonflight to the Tomb of Sargeras in the Endless Sea.
A terrible demon was defeated.
It was killed by a group of brave orcs.
It can be clearly seen that the orc has taken a long stick from one of its claws, which looks like a spear with a wooden handle and a silver end.
The top of the long stick was inlaid with a huge gem, which emitted a dazzling white light. There were many spikes on the gem. The brilliance of the gem made the darkness in the room look dwarfed. From time to time, the gem emitted a little spark, but eventually disappeared into the darkness.
Obviously, that is the Scepter of Sargeras, the divine object that Ner'zhul has always dreamed of obtaining.
Within one day, the Horde stole the two most important sacred objects by making a feint to the east.
So much so that the two shocking news of Grom Hellscream's counterattack in Silverpine Forest and the Blackhand brothers' attack on the Redridge Mountains' defenses were overshadowed.
The top leaders of the Alliance finally realized that the entire tribe's attack on the land of the Eastern Kingdom was actually a feint to cover up their actions of stealing the artifact.
They certainly didn't know that Ner'zhul stole the three artifacts just to escape. However, no matter what, the terrifying possibility that their own king might be blown up was enough to drive them crazy.
"Those useless mages in Dalaran! They let their artifacts be taken away even though they knew something might go wrong!"
"But, that's Nefarian, the Black Dragon King! Who among us can deal with him?"
"If we combine the forces of Dalaran and Quel'Thalas..."
No matter how much the bigwigs in the Alliance discuss, everyone has to turn their attention to Karazhan - Duke is already the last line of defense for the entire Alliance.
If even the Book of Medivh guarded by Duke was stolen, the entire alliance would probably fall into endless panic.
No one expected that Duke would be under even greater pressure.
Because Duke has to face the alternate Lich King Ner'zhul who possesses the artifact Skull of Gul'dan, and he can't defeat him, and killing him is even more difficult!
Standing on the charred land in front of Karazhan, Ner'zhul looked at the tall tower in the distance that was shining with mysterious arcane light, but he was not nervous at all.
He could not hear the howling of the wind as it blew through Deadwind Pass, because the sound of the wind was no match for the whispers that echoed in Ner'zhul's ears.
He took the head in his hands, looked deep into the hollow eye sockets, and heard Gul'dan's voice. To Ner'zhul, the voice from the soul seemed to have life.
