The three days of coma were Sarlayan's last breath before the decisive battle. Ever since he woke up, he had been running around everywhere and couldn't even take the time to sort out his new insights after breaking through the boundaries of mortals.
After using words to induce Malfurion to completely make up his mind, Sharlayan met with Jaina without stopping.
The young couple reunited after a long absence and had no extra time to talk sweetly. Under the current critical situation, the interview between the two was completely business-like.
"When your plan has reached this stage, there is no need for Kel'Thuzad to act anymore."
Jaina described the latest changes in the situation in Northrend in the shortest possible way.
"He went directly into Dalaran City through the secret passage specially reserved by Antonidas and had a private conversation with Ronin for more than an hour."
"At that time, I was busy making final preparations before departure. I didn't know in detail what the two people talked about, but I guess it was related to the details of the plan to sneak into Icecrown Citadel."
Jaina and Merry Winterwind brought many mages with excellent combat abilities from Dalaran, just in time for the decisive battle with the Burning Legion on the top of the mountain.
On the other side, Luo Ning was also in Crystal Song Forest making final confirmations with all parties before the final plan was officially implemented.
Before Jaina left the floating city of Dalaran, the balance of strength between the Scourge and the Burning Legion on the frontal battlefield was completely unbalanced. The undead army led by Arthas and Anub'rakhan had the absolute upper hand.
However, this was mainly because the Dreadlords gave up personally directing the war. Through the information provided by Kel'Thuzad, they quietly entered the escape passage specially set aside by Ner'zhul for themselves, and silently advanced towards the core area of Icecrown Citadel.
At Kel'Thuzad's suggestion, Ronin, Vereesa and others did not rush to escort Solas, but waited until Kel'Thuzad's spy stationed in Icecrown Citadel issued a warning before officially setting off.
"emmmmm..."
Sarlayan scratched his hair in confusion: "I really want to rush there to witness the final outcome of the first Lich King in person, but unfortunately... we are too busy here."
Jaina nodded understandingly: "Compared with the ownership of the Scourge, killing Archimonde is more important. Trust Ronin and the others."
"You have formulated your plan to this point. If they still fail to achieve the final victory... then it can only mean that it is God's will."
"Fine."
Sarlayan sighed softly: "I have no choice but to advance on two fronts."
"By the way, have Arthas and Anub'Rekan noticed any abnormalities?"
"This..." Jaina thoughtfully nodded her forehead with her finger: "I can't say for sure."
"Alsace and Anub'Rekhan are just generals. Logically speaking, they are unlikely to notice the undercurrent coming from the rear, but... they are also accompanied by a high-level psychic with great ability - Gadin.
.”
"Gadin..." Sarlayan said with some emotion: "I heard that guy was punished by Ner'zhul because he failed in the last mission?"
"Yes."
Jaina nodded and explained: "According to Kel'Thuzad, Gadin did not completely lose the Lich King's trust because of one failure."
"Ner'zhul believes that he does not have the ability to complete major tasks independently. As the second-in-command or even the third-in-command, he may be able to play a greater role in assisting others."
"After Arthas led his army back, Ner'zhul transferred Gadin to him and Anub'Rekhan as military staff. However, I heard that the arrogant guy got along well with Arthas, who was also arrogant by nature.
Not very pleasant.”
"Ha~"
Sharlayan sneered and complained: "At this point, the Scourge is still busy fighting for power within the Scourge. Ner'zhul Kong has the artifact Helm of Command, but his personal leadership skills are disaster-level."
"It's no wonder Kel'Thuzad betrayed him without hesitation. This kind of incompetent and blind boss will only plunge the Scourge into boundless chaos."
"Forget it, let's not talk about this for now."
Shaking his head and temporarily forgetting the situation in Northrend, Sarlayan said to Jaina in a serious voice: "After the war begins, you, like other mortal armies, ignore any movement outside the battlefield."
"Your mission is to defeat and annihilate the regular forces of the Burning Legion. As for Archimonde the Defiler, I have other plans for him."
Jaina nodded solemnly: "I know that if Archimonde breaks out of his plan and fights the Wild Demigod and the Aspect Dragon, we fragile mortals won't be able to help."
"but……"
Jaina asked out of curiosity: "How confident are you that Archimonde will step into the trap that has been prepared for him?"
Regarding this issue, some optimistic barrage netizens believe that it is at least more than 80%, but Sarlayan always feels that things may not be that simple.
Due to the butterfly effect caused by their family changing history over the years, even though Sarlayan has restored the details of the Battle of Hyjal in the original history as much as possible, he still cannot guarantee that Archimonde will not be born.
Suspect.
"If you ask me...let it be 50-50."
Sarlayan frowned and said: "You know my habit, I will consider the worst possibility first in everything."
"If Archimonde notices that he is reluctant to step into the trap, then we can take the initiative to kick him in. Anyway, the final result will be the same."
…
On the third day after Sharlayan woke up, the dusty Shandris and Alleria finally came back with the Sentinels and Farstriders who had completed the harassment mission.
The main force of the Burning Legion led by Archimonde has already rounded the last bend leading to the top of the mountain. The prepared position on the top of the mountain is right in front of them, and there is no point in continuing to harass them.
Demons do not need to sleep to replenish their energy, but mortals such as Alleria and Shandris do not.
In the past week, the guerrillas have had very little rest time, and their work and rest schedules have been extremely chaotic.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! As the leaders of the guerrillas, Alleria and Shandis had the experience of staying awake for 3 days and 3 nights.
As soon as they returned to the camp and completed the mission briefing to Jarod and Sarlayan, the two rolled their eyes and fell asleep in front of a large number of officers.
Sylvanas hurried forward and held her eldest sister in her arms with a distressed look on her face, preventing her from hitting the tactical square table in the Chinese army camp.
Jarod originally subconsciously wanted to step forward and hug the unconscious Shandris, but as if he suddenly thought of something, his steps stopped again.
Sarlayan rolled his eyes angrily behind the kid, and while others were not paying attention, he aimed a shadowless kick at his butt.
This is a shadowless foot in the true sense. Even Valeela, who has amazing dynamic vision, cannot see the afterimage.
Jarod: "???"
The inexplicable help coming from behind caused Jarod, who had stopped, to stagger forward, and happened to collide with Shandris, who was falling forward.
Fortunately, Jarod is a legendary warrior after all. He controlled his body posture in the moment before the contact and did not wake up the sleeping Shandris.
"Salayan Deep Shadow!! What the hell are you doing!"
No matter how concealed Sarlayan is, it means nothing to Jarod, who has a strong logical thinking ability.
Because Malfurion decided to sacrifice the world tree Nordrassil, Tyrande, Fandral and Malfurion all remained in Andarius to evacuate the people and prepare to move them to a safe place for refuge.
.
At this juncture, the only people who are qualified to stand beside Jarod and launch a sneak attack are Sharlayan and Maiev.
It was obviously impossible for the unsmiling Maiev to do such a thing on this occasion. Without any evidence, it was known that it must be Sarlayan's evil hand... Blackfoot.
"Pfft~"
Lunara, the eldest sister of the dryad, couldn't help laughing. This joy soon spread in the originally solemn military meeting, and the camp was filled with laughter.
Sarlayan ignored Jarod's angry glare and said with a smile: "What are you doing? I'm helping you. Don't tell me that you can't see Shandris's feelings for you."
"What the hell..." Jarod felt that his blood pressure was rising rapidly. He blushed and shouted angrily in a low voice: "I already have a wife! What are you thinking about at such an important time!"
"OK OK."
Maiev suppressed a smile and stood up to smooth things over: "Isn't this good? The atmosphere before was too solemn. It would be nice to let Sarlayan liven up the atmosphere like this."
Jarod: "... Maiev, are you really my biological sister?"
