"I really miss Mr. Khadgar's teleportation magic."
In front of the portal from Alterac back to the Hanhai Protector, Li De said with some regret.
After experiencing Khadgar's shocking teleportation, using this single-person teleportation portal was boring.
"I'm afraid Mr. Khadgar doesn't think so. Even if he is given another chance, I guess he will still choose to do this."
Kel'Thuzad shook his head and said.
Everything has its own price. If you want to obtain strength beyond your own, you must bear the price brought by this strength.
Atiesh - the Staff of the Guardian. After Medivh's death, the mages of the Tirisfal Council tried to control it, but the final result was the death of several accomplished mages.
In order to defeat Ner'zhul, who possessed the Eye of Dalaran, Khadgar had no choice but to take a desperate risk and pick up Atiesh.
Khadgar's bet was successful, and the Staff of the Guardian reluctantly recognized Medivh's students, but it still had a considerable impact on Medivh's body.
At the moment when all the artifacts were removed, Khadgar collapsed on the ground. After detailed examination, it was found that although his life was not in danger, Khadgar would need to rest in bed for at least half a year before he could recover.
At this time, Khadgar was spending a lot of time thinking about the relationship between himself and power, but while thinking about this issue, Khadgar couldn't help but be curious.
Ner'zhul, who also borrowed the forbidden power, what will be his final fate? His whole body is shrouded in dragon's breath flames and he falls into the void. Is he dead or alive?
Of course Ner'zhul is still alive.
The old shaman who was afraid of death had a terrifyingly strong will to survive. Perhaps the endless void could annihilate everything. When Ner'zhul fell into the void, the dragon's breath flame burning on his body disappeared.
Ner'zhul stood in the void and patted himself in disbelief. The dragon's breath did not cause him any trauma.
At the same time, Ner'zhul also discovered that he had the ability to walk in the void.
"I'm finally free! I can find a physical world where I can spend my last years peacefully!"
Ner'zhul shouted happily, striding in the void.
However, his good mood did not last long, because not long after walking, Ner'zhul noticed a touch of eerie green mixed in the void.
This is the Twisting Nether!
When Ner'zhul realized this truth, he instantly felt chills all over his body. He did all this just to escape the tragic fate of the orcs, but he didn't expect that after going through so much, he finally shattered the void and fell to the lair of the Burning Legion.
middle!
Thinking of what he was going to face next, Ner'zhul's first reaction was to step back, but before he could make a move, two arms that could not be broken out stretched out from the void and directly held Ner'zhul down.
Get up!
Just to the left and right of Ner'zhul, two tall demons with gray-green skin and pointed helmets held Ner'zhul like little chickens in front of an extremely huge, red demon god.
"Kil'jaeden..."
Looking at the huge demon god in front of him, Ner'zhul was filled with despair.
The big demon in front of me is Kil'jaeden, known as the Deceiver. He is the second-largest figure in the Burning Legion, and he is also the mastermind behind bewitching and enslaving the orcs!
"Ner'zhul, my old friend, it's really hard for you to come and greet us."
Kil'jaeden spoke to Ner'zhul angrily, but in fact he was extremely angry at the moment.
The Burning Legion in the Twisting Nether wants to invade the physical world of Azeroth all the time.
However, with the Burning Legion itself, it is a very long process to travel through the endless void to find Azeroth.
Therefore, the most common method used by the Burning Legion is to cross the void with mental power and bring its own projection to the physical world. However, the disadvantage of this is that most of the power needs to stay in the twisting void.
Historically, the fallen titan Sargeras, the leader of the Burning Legion, once tempted the upper elves to open a portal and send his army directly to Azeroth.
However, during the War of the Ancients, due to the fierce resistance of all the tribes of Azeroth, the portal was closed, and the Burning Legion never had such a good opportunity again.
Ner'zhul's constant attempts to teleport in Gorongas were invisibly helping the Burning Legion.
Because there are several space-time rifts very close to the Twisting Nether, that means the Burning Legion has a chance to descend on Gorongas directly from the Twisting Nether, and then invade Azeroth through the Dark Portal!
Kil'jaeden happily sent a group of low-level demons to explore the road, and finally confirmed that the road was real and effective.
The great demon excitedly mobilized his army, and then just when he was about to descend on Gorongas, Ner'zhul could not bear the failure and was eager to escape from the physical plane, causing the already unstable space-time rift to close.
The road directly to Gorongas from the Twisting Nether was also interrupted.
The frustration of missing a move made Kil'jaeden just want to find something to vent to. Ner'zhul had caused the abortion of his plan, which was a good person to vent to.
Not to mention, Ner'zhul ruined the tribe and wanted to escape from the control of the Burning Legion, which was a betrayal of Kil'jaeden.
What fraudsters hate most is deception and betrayal!
Kil'jaeden performed the most brutal torture on Ner'zhul, using a knife to cut off the old shaman's flesh piece by piece while maintaining his life.
After completely turning Ner'zhul into a skeleton, Kil'jaeden used magic to keep Ner'zhul's soul in the skeleton, and then broke Ner'zhul's skeleton inch by inch.
This kind of torture lasted for an unknown amount of time. Ner'zhul went from begging for mercy to yelling and begging for mercy. In the end, when only a wisp of his soul was left and was burned by the evil flames, Ner'zhul turned to Kil'jaeden.
beg.
Begging Kil'jaeden to end his life as soon as possible, Kil'jaeden did not want to let Ner'zhul go just like that.
When he was considering more cruel methods to torture Ner'zhul, Kil'jaeden's subordinates, an evil race called the Nathrezim - commonly known as the Dreadlords, proposed a clever plan to Kil'jaeden.
"..."
"Well, recycling waste is really a good idea."
Kil'jaeden spoke slowly after listening, while a cruel smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, revealing the fangs in his mouth.
The Deceiver told Ner'zhul that he would give Ner'zhul a reward, but only if Ner'zhul had to complete one thing in his service.
And this thing is creating disaster in Azeroth!
The Dread Lord Nathrezim created a set of legendary armor and brought out a rune sword containing powerful power: Frostmourne!
Finally, Kil'jaeden carved a huge ice cube with his own hands, and sealed Ner'zhul's soul, armor, and sword inside.
Using powerful magic, this ice cube began a long journey in the void, and finally reached Azeroth and landed in the snow and ice of Northrend, the northern continent.
At this point, the orc shaman warchief Ner'zhul no longer exists, only the first generation Lich King Ner'zhul!
Ner'zhul lives in the ice as a soul, wandering between life and death, which gives him the power to control the undead.
At the same time, with the help of Kil'jaeden's spellcasting on the ice, Ner'zhul's spiritual power can be extended far and wide, almost throughout Azeroth.
Relying on this power, Ner'zhul learned to be like the Burning Legion, enslaving and bewitching many living and dead people. One of the most important characters was Kel'Thuzad, who defected from Dalaran because of his study of necromancy.
It was precisely thanks to the cooperation of Kel'Thuzad that a tragedy that shocked the world was caused in Stratholme, the largest city in the East Wilder region, and the adult Arthas was successfully corrupted. The Lordaeron leader was successfully killed.
The prince was transformed into a loyal death knight.
Arthas, who killed his father with his own hands, turned the entire Lordaeron subcontinent into a hell on earth.
The Royal City of Lordaeron, Andorhal, Stratholme, Darrowshire... so many prosperous places have all turned into nightmare places where ghouls, skeletons, and ghosts are rampant!
At this point, Ner'zhul has an undead army that can overturn the world, called the Undead Scourge!
And Ner'zhul, who has great power, not only wants to use this army to destroy Azeroth, he also attempts to resist the Burning Legion and complete his revenge!
Unfortunately, even after becoming the Lich King, his final counterattack against fate was destined to fail. In order to eradicate the undead scourge, all races on Azeroth showed unprecedented unity.
Even Ner'zhul's former tribe, the orcs, were determined to protect Azeroth, and the new tribe also made huge sacrifices in fighting the undead plague.
Just like that, Ner'zhula's soul that was attached to the armor and merged with Arthas was completely dissipated.
Before completely dissipating, Ner'zhul might have been unwilling, but he was more at a loss because he could hardly remember who he was...
Ner'zhul stared blankly at the void in front of him, and patted himself again. It seemed that the flames of the bronze dragon did not cause much harm to him.
But at this moment, Ner'zhul couldn't care about this. He was still thinking about the life he had experienced not long ago.
