When Jaina rushed to the library, all he saw was the mess on the floor and Antonidas's ashen face.
"What did he take?" she asked breathlessly. Jaina didn't even want to mention that name.
Antonidas's voice is hoarse and heavy:
"Medivh's Book..."
"What is that?" Jaina asked anxiously.
"A forbidden book, he is going to summon Burning Legion." The old mage replied tiredly.
"No--" Jaina exclaimed, "Dalaran How could it be such a dangerous collectible?"
"We underestimated Undead. Their goal was not to destroy Dalaran, but to summon the demon of the Burning Legion. I transferred the main force to guard the core of Holy Light Matrix. As a result, something went wrong here." The old mage said dejectedly. He then cheered up again,
"We must stop them before they start the summoning ceremony." He quickly issued an order to organize the remaining Paladin mages of Lordaeron and the High Elf mages of Kael'thas to prepare to launch a counterattack against Undead.
Jaina felt extremely depressed when he saw Dalaran busy. He said goodbye to the teacher directly on the pretext that he had to organize Theramore's army. Antonidas ignored her and began to mobilize his troops to launch a counterattack as soon as possible to prevent Undead from using Medivh's Book to summon Burning Legion.
Jaina sent Magic Transmission to Deren and got a teleportation coordinate. She activated Teleportation Spell to go there, but when she came out, she found herself at a desolate seaside.
Deren and Magni were checking the big bomb, while Onyxia was bored and curled up his tail as low as possible. Jaina came out from Portal and asked Deren: "Where is this?"
Deren said, "Penitent Island of Southshore Town."
"This is very close to Dalaran!" Jaina sighed, and added, "Dalaran was just stolen Medivh's Book, Arthas did it himself. This book says it can summon demons. Dalaran is preparing to fight back and destroy the summoning ritual of Undead. You guessed it right again!"
Deren was silent for a moment and said, "It won't succeed. This is a certain historical necessity."
Jaina also felt that she was in some kind of historical fragment, and no matter how hard she tried, she could not escape the inevitable ending. She asked Deren: "Are we still executing as planned? Can we succeed?"
Deren nodded and said metaphorically, "If history is a certain kind of picture book, the story starts from the first page and the ending is destined to be on the last page. But we are people reading picture books. We can add new page numbers to the picture book and change the process of transforming the story. We can also add different endings to the last page."
He waved his hand and caught Chromie hiding behind Black Dragon, and asked her, "Are you ready? You are here to monitor Timeline. After we carry out the bombing mission, regardless of success or failure, we will fly directly to the Hinterlands at high altitude and teleport away from the beach under Sea-Watch Cliff."
There were only turtles and cliffs in that place, so no one would notice the brilliance of Teleportation Spell. Your Majesty, Magni, dressed up as an ordinary dwarf and took Gryphon from Southshore Town back to Ironforge. Perfect move! No one would notice."
Chromie nodded and said there is no problem. The pirates, Murloc and other creatures on Penitent Island have all been cleaned up by Onyxia. No one knows what happened here.
"Okay, get ready for action." Deren climbed on Onyxia and waved to Jaina to come up too. One sat on the dragon's back and the other sat on the dragon's neck. In the dark night, Dragon took the bomb and quickly disappeared into the sky.
Chromie watched Deren and his group disappear, and began to use Time Magic to erase traces that might be traced. He observed the changes in Timeline.
A stout dwarf came to the Southshore Town hotel in the distance and ordered a meal. Then he went to the Gryphon administrator and asked for a route to Ironforge. Gryphon flew very fast, and Magni returned to his kingdom quietly.
Outside Dalaran's city wall, Undead's army began to retreat. They gathered into a defense line and stopped engaging in unnecessary suicide attempts Charge.
Antonidas stood at the highest point of Violet Citadel, holding the staff tightly in his old hands and looking like a torch.
"We must fight back." He whispered, his voice as cold as steel, "Before the summoning ceremony is completed."
As his staff struck the ground heavily, Magic Array in the entire city suddenly lit up, and violet energy gathered like a tide.
"A blizzard is coming!"
In an instant, the sky over Dalaran was torn apart, and an extremely cold frost storm poured down like the wrath of the gods. Fist-sized hailstones mixed with sharp ice cones hit outside the city with devastating force. Undead army. Ghoul was frozen into ice sculptures in the cold wind, Abomination's huge body was penetrated by ice picks, and the skeleton of skeleton Warrior was shattered into slag at low temperatures.
Immediately afterwards, the exiled mages of Quel'Thalas appeared in front of the Undead army. Everyone was full of crystal magic before setting off. They raised their staffs high, and blazing fireballs, roaring thunder, and magma tearing the earth spewed out. The power of the elements raged on the battlefield. Several gaps were torn open in the formation of the Undead army in an instant.
Some people even felt that crystal sucking was not enough, so they secretly took a sip of the secretly collected Arcane Gas, and then laughed wildly and poured firepower on Undead. Even the Undead on the opposite side was frightened by the laughing mage and trembled. Although it looked a bit weird, the effect was very good, and no one criticized him in this fighting state, and even triggered imitations.
Amid the mages' wild laughter and roars of spells, a large hole was torn open in Undead's front line.
"Counterattack!" A Death Knight attempted to lead his troops to launch Charge towards the mage's position. But what greeted him was hundreds of young magic apprentices rushing to the front of the mage's troops.
"Magic apprentice, prepare to drop bombs!" a Battle Mage roared.
Hundreds of young apprentices lined up in a crooked battle line, holding Nitroglycerin Bomb frozen by frost magic in their hands. Following an order, they simultaneously cast Mage Hand, throwing bombs into the area with the highest concentration of Undead.
"Unfreeze!"
"Boom boom boom boom--!!!"
Continuous explosions turned the battlefield into a sea of fire, and the shock wave even affected the front line of the Dalaran troops, overturning several laughing mages who rushed too far forward. The vanguard of the Undead army The frontline troops were almost wiped out, and broken limbs and bones fell like raindrops. The leader Death Knight was torn into pieces in the explosion of Nitroglycerin. The soul fire was extinguished unwillingly.
"Knights of Lordaeron! Charge!"
The remaining Lordaeron knights held high the battle flag and entered the battlefield from the side and rear. The war horses neighed and rushed towards the remaining Undead. Holy Light shined on their sword blades, and each slash turned the pieces of Undead into ashes. After a round of attacks, Undead's defense line collapsed deeply.
Dalaran's counterattack has begun.
Arthas is standing next to the summoning ritual rune array, and Medivh's Book is suspended in the center of the summoning array. The pages of the book are moving automatically without wind, and strange green runes are flowing in the air. Kel'Thuzad is chanting in a low voice, and the necromantic energy is intertwined with Fel Energy, forming a dark green light pillar that shoots straight into the sky.
However, the sound of explosions in the distance made Death Knight frown.
"Dalaran's counterattack was sharper than expected." Dar'khan whispered, the soul fire in his eyes beating uneasily.
Arthas stared coldly at the battlefield, as his Undead army was retreating steadily. Antonidas's blizzard almost affected half of the Scourge, and the Quel'Thalas mage's elemental bombing caused the front line to completely collapse.
"We must buy time." Arthas held Frostmourne tightly, turned over and jumped onto the Undead war horse, "I will stop them."
He led the last elite Death Knight to rush to the battlefield. Wherever Frostmourne's cold light passed, even the air froze. Several Lordaeron knights of Charge tried to surround him, but their souls were quickly absorbed by Frostmourne, and then the body was quickly resurrected into a new Death Knight.
However, just when Arthas was preparing to expand the results--
"Arthas·Menethil! You bastard--"
The old mage's voice exploded like thunder. Antonidas was suspended in the sky behind the Dalaran front, with a huge Nitroglycerin Bomb floating on the top of his head. The ice shell on the outside seemed unable to stop the power contained within and was about to burst.
"Taste the anger of Dalaran!" As he said that, Antonidas used his magic power to throw out the big bomb.
The third update, the battle continues. With the addition of Nitroglycerin, Dalaran's counterattack becomes even more fierce. Please vote and subscribe! The fourth update will continue at 8pm!
