Warnings from the Sathrovarr the Corruptor had saved Kalecgos's life countless times throughout his adventuring career.
Kalecgos, now in human form, reacted instinctively, immediately tearing open a Teleportation Scroll and returning to the Nexus.
Medivh was hidden in a dark cloud.
Around him, countless Portals opened, and hordes of beings emerged from Portal, their feet treading on solid clouds.
There are Demons from the Burning Legion, Night Elves Mastery in archery, human infantry wielding spears, Orcs struggling with their expressions, Darkspear Trolls wielding javelins, and so on.
They are elite troops collected from shattered time and space, ensuring their origins will not be discovered.
"One of the Blue Dragonflight escaped. It turned out to be the weakest one. It was probably because the Demons's aura was detected, even though I had already concealed it."
Medivh gazed at the tents, stretched out his right hand and pressed down, an invisible magical field enveloping the surroundings.
It was the binding magic that the Dragonkin feared most that prevented them from transforming back into their Dragon form.
"Enemy attack."
The five Blue Dragonflight reacted quickly, rushing out of the tent. Looking at the cloud-covered sky and sensing countless Demons auras, Peilagusa nervously cast a spell, trying to signal the three Blue Dragonflight behind him, but was stopped by Ulagosi.
Ulagosi's gaze Steadfast he whispered, "No matter how many Blue Dragonflight we have, they're just going to their deaths. This is an enemy we cannot defeat."
Then, Ulagosi shouted towards the clouds, "Medivh, I really didn't expect it to be you. If you want the Focusing Iris, the Blue Dragonflight will gladly offer it to you."
A figure in black robes appeared in the clouds. Medivh sneered, "Blatantly stealing the Focusing Iris of the Dragonkin is a disgrace to any Guardian. You made a wise choice, so tonight only five Blue Dragonflight will die."
Keligosa was the first to step forward, her petite figure radiating powerful magic. "Guardian Medivh, everyone knows you are actually the Destroyer. You brought disaster to Azeroth. Let me witness your magic."
Powerful Arcane energy coalesced into a terrifying Dragon, its features clearly defined, even each scale lifelike, as it viciously lunged at Medivh.
"Fancy and superficial, all show and no substance."
Medivh smiled, and a green barrier appeared before him, swallowing the Arcane Dragon like a whale.
At the same time, a ball of light appeared in Medivh's hand, within which was a small figure— Keligosa. Medivh flicked his finger, releasing a burst of fire.
Ulagosi bit his lip. "The Burning Legion's Puppet Magic, be careful."
"No!"
Keligosa let out a painful scream as her body was burned beyond recognition and she collapsed helplessly onto the snow.
"A magnificent massacre has only just begun." Medivh spread his arms wide, seemingly enjoying the moment.
A powerful surge of magic converged, like a vast ocean, as the remaining four Blue Dragonflight cast a spell together, pouring all their power into Ulagosi.
Without any fancy tricks, the magic he used was the Entry Arcane Missiles, except that each missile was as large as a house and flew towards Medivh like a geyser.
Medivh rarely showed a cautious expression. Although he didn't want to reveal his identity, the current situation forced him to hold back his strength.
The various spells merged together, forming a terrifying magical storm. After Thunder roar, it engulfed all the Arcane Missiles, leaving a huge black crack on the hard ice field, as if it had been struck by Lightning, stretching into the distance.
Such terrifying magic is rare in the Azeroth.
After the magic dissipated, five figures stood on the icy plain. The five Blue Dragonflight supported each other, and despite their battered bodies, they still stubbornly gazed at Medivh.
"So the Blue Dragonflight isn't entirely without merit after all. It's just that your king Malygos, is far too foolish."
Medivh cried out, "All the brave have been slaughtered, leaving only a bunch of submissive cowards. This is the natural selection of Azeroth!"
Out of final respect, the Anti-Magic Field slowly descended, Medivh waved his hand:
"Let's begin, leave no survivors!"
The elite troops above the clouds slowly descended onto the icy plains and began their siege of the five Blue Dragonflight.
Medivh stood with his hands behind his back, gazing at the quiet night sky with a deep look in his eyes.
Kalecgos emerged from the teleportation area from the Nexus, encountering several members of his race along the way, all carrying a puzzling air.
Kalecgos looked somewhat embarrassed. He didn't know how to explain that the Focusing Iris had disappeared, but they didn't even know who the enemy was.
"It must be a formidable enemy," said the Sathrovarr the Corruptor, remaining silent.
Kalecgos shook his head, clearing his mind. He was the Aspect of the Blue; he didn't need to consider the opinions of his people.
On the shimmering, floating platform, Malygos's daughter Keligosa, gazed at Kalecgos with astonishment.
"Kalec, why are you here? Shouldn't you be with the Focusing Iris?"
Kalecgos feigned nonchalance, saying, "As the leader of the Blue Dragonflight, it is my duty to lead the dragonflight. I have many things to attend to, so I must return to Theramore. You can leave the escort to Ulagosi; I trust his abilities."
Keligosa looked at him suspiciously, judging from the marks left on his body. "You just experienced a teleportation, from the snow-covered ice plains back to the Nexus, using a precious Magic Scroll. I hope this wasn't an escape; my father never deserted in the face of battle."
Kalecgos's face darkened, and he said coldly, "You doubt the Aspect of the Blue? Of course I know the Dragon King's duty—to fight to protect the dragons. In your heart, I am a shameless Imp? How laughable! I will prove to you that I, Kalecgos, am the bravest Dragonkin."
Keligosa stared into his eyes and said, "If the escort is safe, I apologize."
Kalecgos argued, "Escorting is certainly safe, though there could be unexpected events, who knows? My plan—no, Ulagosi's plan—has many flaws. My suggestion was to fly at full speed in Dragon form, but Ulagosi insisted on transforming into human form, and you know how fragile human form is."
Keligosa was stunned. She hadn't expected Kalecgos to be so shameless, casually lying and effortlessly shifting all the blame onto Ulagosi.
There must have been a problem with the escort, Keligosa thought anxiously, and immediately transformed into Dragon and flew out of the Nexus.
Such a leader will only bring disaster to the dragons and the world.
The worst fears had finally come true. Keligosa saw the three Blue Dragonflight hurtling towards the Nexus at breakneck speed, as if fleeing for their lives. The eldest of the three Dragons, Taregos, who was providing cover, was shouting frantically:
"We're finished, completely finished."
Keligosa rushed forward and asked, "Tell me slowly, what happened? What's wrong with Focusing Iris?"
"The Focusing Iris, it's gone."
Keligosa's eyes widened, a chill running down her spine. The wisdom of the Dragonkin made her understand many things in an instant.
"You were tasked with providing cover, but you didn't go to check, you didn't bring back the bodies of your people, you did nothing but fly back to deliver a message."
Keligosa stared intently at Taregos: "Do you know who stole the Focusing Iris?"
