Li De didn't care where Deathwing was hiding at the moment, because he knew very well that out of fear of other dragon kings, Deathwing would not show up easily.
On the contrary, in order to regain the Demon Soul, Deathwing had to rely on the power of the Alliance.
As for where Deathwing is hiding now? In fact, after leaving Lordaeron that day, Deathwing noticed the magic of the dragons halfway.
At that time, he thought that other dragon kings were really chasing him, so he quickly destroyed all the magic along the way and left the territory of Lordaeron as quickly as possible.
But after arriving at a safe place, the more Deathwing thought about it, the more he felt there was something wrong. If the Dragon King was really dispatched, how could it be so clumsy to intercept his own magic?
After calming down, the Black Dragon King recalled Li De's demeanor at that time, and immediately realized that he had been deceived.
When he thought about being forced to admit defeat to a mere mortal and escaping from Lordaeron in such an ugly manner, Deathwing really wanted to kill Lordaeron and turn it into ruins.
But after being angry, he quickly regained his sanity. When he destroyed the magic before, the dragon army must have confirmed his identity. If he really kills another carbine at this time, there will definitely be huge consequences.
There is a probability that you will meet other Dragon Kings.
He had no choice but to return to his current hiding place: just southeast of Ironforge and northwest of the Burning Plains, there was a vast mountainous area.
Because of the cruel climate of the Burning Steppes and the high mountains of Khaz Modan in the north, the humid climate in the south was completely blocked. As a result, the mountainous area was very dry and desolate, hence the name: Desolate Land.
At this moment, Deathwing has set up his temporary residence among the vast mountains in a deserted land. The reason why he can hold back his anger and choose to return here is because there happens to be a toy for him to vent his anger on.
When Deathwing transformed into a human form and descended from the sky, a guy who looked like a human knight immediately came up to him with a flattering look on his face.
"Great Dragon King, you are back. I believe your plan has been realized."
Although his body and appearance seemed to belong to a human race, his face was gray and black, and there was no trace of the living person at all. Even when he smiled, his facial muscles were extremely stiff.
Deathwing didn't say a word, he just raised his hand and released a shadow magic towards the knight. Suddenly, the knight seemed to be covered with tarsal maggots and fell to the ground, struggling and twisting, still unable to stop his mouth.
screamed, but what made people's scalp numb even more was that even though he was suffering from such pain, the knight's moans still had a sense of pleasure.
This is what makes Deathwing interested in this guy. Under the torture of his shadow, ordinary life will die within a few seconds.
But even if this guy tortured himself with a very powerful shadow, he would only feel pain. What made Deathwing even more impressed was that this guy seemed to be addicted to this kind of pain.
"To my surprise, you didn't choose to run away while I was away."
Listening to the knight's screams, Deathwing seemed to be in a much better mood and regained his pretentious and elegant posture.
The knight who was still in pain struggled to get up from the ground.
"I, Talon Blood Demon, have sworn allegiance to you, the great Black Dragon King. Only you can save the fate of the orcs."
Hearing Talon Bloodfiend say this, Deathwing chuckled disdainfully.
"Come on, will anyone believe the loyalty of a death knight? You are neither loyal to me nor to the orcs. How is the investigation going?"
During the war, Orgrim acquiesced to the warlock Gul'dan to create death knights in order to strengthen the tribe.
The so-called death knight is a kind of life that is born after injecting the soul of the dead into the corpse, which is good at playing with shadows and undead, and exudes evil energy.
In the culture of the orcs, the dead are also respected, so the remains of the orcs will be incinerated. Therefore, after the extradition of these orc souls, there was no body that could accommodate them. Therefore, these orc souls were poured into the human corpses.
middle.
Even the orcs are extremely afraid of this kind of evil life that hovers between life and death.
Talon Gorefiend was the first death knight created by Gul'dan.
When he was still alive, his name was Tarongor, and he was a warlock who was highly valued by Gul'dan. After his death, his soul was also used by Gul'dan.
After experiencing death and resurrection, Taron Gor's soul was extremely distorted. The already crazy warlock Taron Gor naturally became the death knight Taron Gorefiend.
Death knights are not loyal to anyone except themselves, including Gul'dan. During the Second Orc War, the decline of the tribe made Talon Gorefiend and some of his men want to leave the tribe.
Just before retreating to Blackrock Mountain, Talon Bloodfiend led his people as deserters.
After the defeat of Orgrim, Talon Gorefiend wanted to lead people to escape back to their world, but he did not expect that the Alliance army would be one step ahead of them.
When Khadgar closed the Dark Portal, Talon Gorefiend was in the distance, witnessing this scene in despair.
After the main force of the Alliance withdrew from the Cursed Land, only Khadgar was left to lead a group of people to guard it. The unwilling Talon Bloodfiend lurked in the shadows and secretly approached the Dark Portal alone.
After becoming a death knight, his power mainly came from shadows and undead, but he still did not forget the feeling of being a warlock when he was alive. He worked hard and got the response of evil energy in his heart, and used evil magic to try to connect with his own world.
comminicate.
Khadgar's worries at the time were justified. He did not have the ability to completely shut down Medivh's spell.
Although the Dark Portal was closed, the underlying magic circuit hidden deeper still remained tenaciously. Although Talon Gorefiend did not have the ability to reopen the Dark Portal, he could transmit his weak spiritual power back to his own world.
.
In the process, the Death Knight successfully communicated with the tribes remaining in their world and formulated a plan to reopen the Dark Portal.
Khadgar was very alert and did not have much time left for Talon Blood Demon to communicate with his accomplices, but in such a short period of time, the worlds on both sides of the Dark Portal reached a consensus.
If you want to reopen the Dark Portal, you need a key evil magic item: the Skull of Gul'dan!
When the Dark Portal was opened, it was successfully opened through the conspiracy of Medivh and Gul'dan. Now if you want to reopen it, you must have powerful evil energy from the same source.
Although Gul'dan is dead, the fel warlocks all believe that his skull still contains powerful power, not to mention that during the first war, Gul'dan also established a soul connection with Medivh.
Of course, it was because Gul'dan was obsessed with searching for Medivh's secrets in the soul connection that he was affected and fell into a coma at the moment Medivh was suddenly killed, giving Orgrim the opportunity to control the tribe.
However, there are blessings and misfortunes. Although the coma made Gul'dan controlled by Orgrim, in the spiritual connection with Medivh, Gul'dan also truly obtained several powerful artifacts in the world of Azeroth.
Information.
Talon Bloodfiend, who was once deeply trusted by Gul'dan, naturally obtained information about several artifacts through some scheming.
Talon Gorefiend plans to find the Skull of Gul'dan and reopen the Dark Portal. He has no intention of changing the fate of the orcs, but he knows that if he wants to change his own destiny, several artifacts of Azeroth will play a vital role.
effect.
But before he could find the Skull of Gul'dan, he was found by Deathwing himself.
After the defeat of the orcs, Deathwing cursed the tribe in his heart that the tribe was a waste, and it was defeated in just a few years without giving himself a chance to fish in troubled waters.
But accidentally discovering this death knight made him interested in orcs again.
It seems that he can use these guys to create some chaos in Azeroth. At the same time, Deathwing also has an interest in the world where the Horde is located.
Because of the pursuit of the dragon army, his activities in Azeroth were restricted. If he could live in another world, wouldn't it mean that he could do whatever he wanted and even form an army of his own?
After he fell into madness in ancient times, his black dragon army suffered heavy losses, and the few remaining black dragons no longer followed him, but stayed in Dragonblight to survive.
Deathwing needs a new group of dragons to build his army.
The best way is to control Alexstrasza and make her his consort. However, because 10,000 years ago, the dragon kings cast magic on the Demon Soul, so Deathwing cannot directly use the Demon Soul.
Deathwing must find an agent to control the Demon Soul. But now it seems that the Dragonmaw clan is not a very good agent. Those guys are not only stupid, but they always have many ideas.
Deathwing is planning to find a new agent to implement its own ideas.
If he couldn't find a suitable agent within a short period of time, Deathwing had another backup plan. He came up with the idea of Alexstrasza's eggs.
In order to increase their power, the Dragonmaw Clan forced the Red Dragon Queen to breed a large number of dragon eggs.
The Black Dragon King wants to steal these dragon eggs and use magic to transform them all into black dragons.
However, transformation magic is long and continuous, and Deathwing needs a safe place to conduct his magic. Azeroth is monitored by the dragon army, so Deathwing chose this safe place in the world of the orcs.
Because of this, Deathwing decided to help Talon Gorefiend reopen the Dark Portal.
What he asked Talon Gorefiend about was the investigation into the Skull of Gul'dan.
"I have found out everything. Fortunately, after the war, some of Gul'dan's men and the men of the Black Teeth Grinning Clan remained. From them, I learned the whereabouts of Gul'dan's Skull.
Gul'dan died in the Tomb of Sargeras, and his head was snatched out of the tomb by the Ravager clan, but was later intercepted and killed by the Blacktooth Laughing clan who were chasing them.
The skull fell into the hands of Red and Maimu, the two sons of Chief Blackhand.
Later, the Black-Toothed Grinning Clan was intercepted by the Alliance fleet and Lidwick during their voyage. The Black-Toothed Grinning Clan was defeated and captured, and the head was either in Kul Tiras or Lidvik.
Terry’s hands.”
After saying this, Talon Bloodfiend was still afraid that Deathwing had never heard the name of a mortal.
"Sir, do you know Lid Victory? He was originally an officer of the Kingdom of Stormwind..."
"That's enough! Needless to say, I know that bug!"
Deathwing angrily interrupted Talon Bloodfiend's words.
"I have seen him. He is an extremely cunning guy. With his cunning, if he knew about the existence of the Skull of Gul'dan, he would never let it go.
Let’s start with him…
But his relationship with the Dragon Legion is unusual. Obtaining the Skull of Gul'dan from him requires a very secretive process."
Deathwing was thinking about it, but unfortunately he didn't expect it. Li De was discussing with Antonidas, Krasus and others how to place the Skull of Gul'dan.
