Under the setting sun, Sunwell located on Isle of Quel'Danas in the north of Silvermoon City is bathed in golden light. The towering, gorgeous, temple-like building is so beautiful. It's so fascinating that every soldier passing by Sunwell can't help but focus on the Phoenix Insignia on the front, which is the symbol of the entire Quel'Thalas.

However, the situation of Isle of Quel'Danas in recent days has been somewhat unique. Originally, this island was the second stop of Sunsail Fleet, and there was also a Mage research organization like Magisters' Terrace. This was a residence belonging to the upper class, but now, after hundreds of thousands of refugees from Silvermoon City moved into it, the entire island has become crowded.

Even the Spellbreaker training ground not far away from the Sunwell Great Door entrance was crowded with large and small tents. However, because the High Elf inherited the elegance and grandeur of the Ancient Elf Empire, they also had enough time to learn during their long Life Force. Therefore, except for some children who were not yet sensible, not many people complained about this kind of life away from home.

Everyone knows that war is coming! Second War, which ended more than ten years ago, is now over, and the years of peace are over. Especially in the past few days, Demon are rapidly encroaching on Silvermoon City's As for the defensive force, after the frontline war trapped most of Silvermoon City's military strength, Demons cunningly came to drain the firepower. This put Quel'Thalas, which was already shaky, into a worse situation.

Sunstrider Royal Family has a dedicated person every day to distribute daily necessities to the Elfs temporarily living on Isle of Quel'Danas, so every afternoon, the adult Elfs will consciously line up and go to the material distribution point to receive the next day's supplies.

But things are a little different today.

In the past, super large Portal appeared behind the material distribution points, which was enough to accommodate 5 Elf passing through at the same time. A whole team of trainee Elf Mage were busy beside the Portal, keeping the Portal open.

"Compatriots, according to the order of the Royal Family, the war in Silvermoon City is urgent and may threaten Isle of Quel'Danas, so now we need to move to east Darrowmere Region, Prince have arranged response personnel on the other side of Portal. We are now united as families and blocks, through Portal!"

Captain Rangers, wearing phoenix leather armor, stood on a high platform and used a container blessed with amplification magic to explain the current situation to the civilians at the supply point.

It has to be said that the 7000-year rule has deeply engraved the brand of Sunstrider family into the bones of all Elf civilians. When they heard the name of Prince Kael'thas, who had a high reputation in Quel'Thalas, almost no one had much objection. The civilians quickly returned to the tent area, packed up the few things they had, and under the arrangements of the Mage, passed Portal at an extremely fast speed.

The magic fluctuations activated by more than a dozen large Portals naturally caused Sun King who was sitting on Sunwell Plateau to Anasterian noticed it, and he quickly walked to Sunwell Plateau's monitoring hall. After seeing the orderly transfer of civilians, Sun King immediately became Anger.

"Who! Who gave the order to relocate civilians! Don't they know that turning on Portal at this time can easily lead to an attack by Demon?"

Facing the furious King, the Squires lowered their heads one after another. On the one hand, they were unwilling to bear the crime of contradicting King His Majesty. On the other hand, these Sunstrider family servants could all guess who gave the order.

Apart from the Crown Prince, Prince Kael'thas, no one else can mobilize such a large-scale transfer Operation.

Sure enough, at the next moment, Prince's cold voice came into the monitoring hall,

"Father, it was I who ordered the civilians to move. Not only the civilians, but now the entire Isle of Quel'Danas residents, including the Spellbreaker guards, are moving quickly! Father,

I... I am about to start the detonation work of Sunwell, please go to Sunstrider Isle for temporary shelter!" Anasterian turned around, and he saw Kael'thas with a determined look, and Sylvanas and Dick who were following behind Kael'thas, both fully armed., and the other leaders of Mages' Council, through their somewhat nervous faces, outside the surveillance hall, the guards brought by Kael'thas were semi-forced to change the guard with the Spellbreaker who were loyal to Anasterian. Farther away, from Dalaran and Silvermoon City The Mages' Council and Archmage folks have already begun making final changes to the Sunwell core.

Sun King Pain closed his eyes. This kind of formation... had never appeared in his wildest fantasies.

His son... the future master of this country actually chose Coup at this time!

"Are you crazy? Kael'thas, my son, you would choose to listen to that Madmen's words. Do you know what Sunwell means to Quel'Thalas!"

"Fur..."

Kael'thas was a little afraid to face his father's disappointed eyes, but he still cheered up Courage and said to Sun King,

"I know, father, I have been taught by you to protect Sunwell since I was a child, but... you have also seen that yesterday, Great Demon forcibly tore apart space 13 times, and we lost 150 Spellbreaker! Its patience has reached its limit, and we are no match for this force! And father, Master Rothman and Halduron's vanguard fleet, have found a replacement for Sunwell, Seeds, the last Miracle Tree Arcan'dor from the Highborne era! With it, we can..."

"Shut up! You've gone crazy! Kael'thas, Sunwell are irreplaceable!"

Anasterian excitedly interrupted Kael'thas's persuasion. He pointed in the direction of Sunwell and shouted to Kael'thas,

"With 7000 years of protection and worship, Sunwell has become a monument in the hearts of the people, and you don't understand... it... it is no longer just a magic well."

"My son, maybe you don't know yet, Sunwell has given birth to his own soul? Do you know what this means?"

Dick's eyes suddenly widened, and Kael'thas took a step forward. He was also shocked by the news!

Sunwell has his own soul!!!

How is this possible!

"Anveena! But... but didn't Anveena turn into a human form through Red Dragon Krasus after Sunwell was destroyed? It makes no sense that she is conscious now!"

Dick's head was in chaos, and the information about Sunwell and Well of Eternity kept churning in his mind, but just when Dick was about to say something, a loud noise suddenly appeared outside Isle of Quel'Danas.

The Operation sound was so loud that even the ground shook several times in the loud sound.

"What happened?"

Sun King turned around suddenly, and a Arcane Power hit Arcane Power Crystal in the monitoring hall. The next moment, the scene outside Sunwell appeared in front of everyone's eyes.

Demon! It's Demon!

Demon attacks!

The leader is a person with a body like Dragon, covered with Dark Green bone plates, with a pair of large shrunken wings on his back, an inverted triangle, and an ugly head burning with green energy flames. He is also holding a huge heart protector on his chest. The humanoid upper Half is holding a huge Double-Headed War Glaive in his hand.

Pit Lord! Burning Legion's high-end Commander!

With just a slight wave of the War Glaive in the hands of this ten-meter-tall guy, one-third of the Sunsail Anchorage Port building was destroyed. Its long tail whipped on the sea surface like a whip, and huge waves of three to four meters high surged out. On the Sea behind it, a terrifyingly huge Spatial Rift is slowly opening. You can see a pair of blue claws pulling the two ends of the Spatial Rift, trying to continue to expand it.

"Great Demon! It's Archimonde! They've moved the battlefield! They're going to drop Demon into Quel'Danas!"

Dick shouted loudly, turned around and ran towards the outside of the monitoring hall.

"Quick, follow me! Don't let them come into contact with Sunwell, otherwise Archimonde will have precise spatial coordinates. Next time it is transmitted, Demon will definitely flow directly into Sunwell!"

Sylvanas and others immediately realized the seriousness of the problem, and they also followed Dick and ran out. In front of such Scourge, Spellbreaker had no time to pay attention to the dispute between King and the prince, so they followed Commander and joined the battlefield through Portal.

Kael'thas glanced at Pit Lord who was heading towards Sunwell. He took a step back and glanced at Anasterian King,

"Father, look! This is the price of stubbornness!"

After Prince finished speaking, he turned around and entered the Portal that opened with his mind. At this moment, three green Arcane magic balls appeared in the air behind Prince's head, and a miniature phoenix made entirely of flames also appeared on Prince's shoulders.

Kael'thas, has entered the strongest fighting state!

After Kael'thas left, Sun King seemed to have aged a lot. He sat alone in the center of the monitoring hall. He looked directly below the monitoring hall, at the well water surrounding Sunwell, and the Mages who arranged Disintegration Magic Circle. In his heart, he felt indescribable Pain.

He still remembered that when he was a child, his father held his hand, pointed at Sunwell and said,

"Anasterian, my son, look, this is Quel'Thalas! This is the mark of High Elf, Sunwell, this is the only Pride for us exiles!"

But now, his son wants to destroy this Pride with his own hands. Maybe Pride of Kael'thas is not here... Sun King closed his eyes, he deeply Taking a breath, he reached out and took down the phoenix Crown above his head and put it aside. He held Quel'Thalas's national treasure-Flamestrike in his hand as if he was holding a sword for the first time as a child.

Sun King took a step forward, and the silver-white Portal appeared at his feet. He entered it, and when he appeared again, he was already standing on the edge of the Sunwell well water.

He looked at the Dalaran Mage who were setting up Disintegration Magic Circle, and couldn't help but shook his head,

"This won't work! The energy when Sunwell explodes will destroy the entire Isle of Quel'Danas. A two-way channel must be made. Now listen to my command. The first part of the energy is imported into coordinates XXXX, which is Portal on the Sea! The second part of the energy... is all imported into Silvermoon City! If Demon wants to defeat us, let them see the backbone of High Elf!"

Seeing Sun King suddenly appear, all the Mages stopped what they were doing, but when they heard Anasterian After King's command, everyone immediately became busy again. Under the command of Archmage, Sun King, who has absolutely profound magical attainments, Greater Disintegration Array's progress was faster than imagined.

And just outside Sunwell, when Kael'thas led Dick and others to challenge Demon with difficulty, a small group of cavalry, wrapped in black cloaks, quietly entered Silvermoon City from another direction. The leader looked up at the sky, determined the direction, and then made a gesture. All the knights passed through Silvermoon City, which was almost completely occupied by Demon, and ran quickly towards the north of Quill Danath Island.

Arthas, who had not been seen for a long time, looked at Demon walking back and forth in the streets and alleys, with a sneer on his indifferent lips.

Demon regards Undead Scourge as a pawn, but this time, it is their turn to be a pawn for themselves!
