Watermark test
"This makes me a little confused, how did Faceless Ones and Undead get together?" Aaron scratched his head and murmured while looking at the marks on the wall.
Ner'zhul and his subordinate Undead should theoretically be considered part of the Burning Legion or... servant army? And Burning Legion is composed of Fel Titans Organized by Sargeras, the main goal of Titans, who can be called the most capable fighter at present, is to prevent the universe from falling into the control of Old Gods and the Void forces behind Old Gods.
From this perspective, Ner'zhul and Old Gods's minions, including Faceless Ones, should be mortal enemies. Of course, Ner'zhul has ulterior motives and is targeting Sargeras and Burning Legion has no loyalty, but currently Dreadlord is still with Ner'zhul. These loyal subordinates of the Burning Legion cannot let Ner'zhul and Faceless Ones cooperate, right?
"Wait, it doesn't seem impossible." Aaron said thoughtfully. With Dreadlord's cunning, it seems that it is not impossible for them to cooperate with Faceless Ones under Old Gods and use Faceless Ones to achieve their goals.
"Should we go inside and take a look next?" Krasus listened to Aaron muttering a lot, and suddenly felt a sense of confusion, but the most important point was that he understood that Faceless Ones and Undead had reached a cooperation, so it was obvious where Undead was going, and it must be in this passage.
Aaron thought for a while and chased along this passage. He would probably face the main force of Undead's army. Although the flying Undead was almost dead, the main force of Undead Legion was still there.
"Let's go in and take a look... at least we need to know where Undead are going." Aaron finally said to Krasus, "But be careful on the road, there are many enemies waiting for us here."
"Is this our enemy?" When Krasus said this, they had been walking along the passage for a long time, and finally they were blocked by a pyramid-shaped building.
"Strange, my shield didn't respond?" Aaron looked down at the Truthguard in his hand in confusion. The shield had no response to the building blocked in the tunnel, as if it was just an empty city.
"Let's go in and take a look." Aaron said helplessly. In this case, the lack of response from the shield made him feel a little uneasy. After thinking about it, he turned to Krasus and said, "Master, cancel the spell on me."
"What?" Although Krasus was a little puzzled, he still canceled the isolation spell on Aaron according to Aaron. Aaron immediately felt the rancid smell permeating the tunnel again, and the biggest source of these unpleasant smells came from the Necropolis in front of him.
This made Aaron a little puzzled. Did Undead people fill this Necropolis with poisonous gas bombs? Thinking of this, Aaron gave himself a layer of Divine Shield walked to the entrance at the bottom of Necropolis. As soon as he entered, Aaron saw a horrifying scene: Necropolis was densely packed with corpses.
These corpses are covered with a layer of frost. It seems that they should have been frozen before, but now they have been moved here. However, Truthguard still has no reaction to these corpses, as if these corpses are really just ordinary corpses.
These corpses come from many different races. The only thing they have in common is that they all died peacefully and did not suffer any serious injuries before death. If it were not for the fact that the skin color of these corpses was not very healthy, it would be like a normal death.
"These all died in the plague." Krasus followed Aaron into Necropolis. He could not feel the traces of spells on these dead people, but the state of these guys was definitely not a normal death. Apart from anything else, many corpses were not old enough to die.
"Maybe it's a failed plague." Aaron remembered the plague that spread in Drak'Tharon Keep. The infected people's final outcome was to become Undead controlled by Ner'zhul, instead of simply becoming corpses.
"Our current trouble is how to get over it." Aaron quickly realized that while studying the state of these corpses, what was more important was how to get through these Necropolis obstacles to find traces of Undead.
However, after several attempts, Aaron realized that these Necropolis were too successful as obstacles blocking the road. Necropolis blocked the passage perfectly, and Necropolis is filled with corpses that cannot be purified by Aaron's Holy Light - Holy Light has no effect on corpses that have not yet turned into Undead.
Krasus also wanted to use spells and breath to solve these obstacles, but after finally destroying half of the Necropolis, he discovered that there was another Necropolis behind it.
Aaron has reason to suspect that there are more Necropoliss behind them as obstacles. After they are cleared, the Undeads will have no idea where they went.
In the end, Aaron and Krasus decided to leave a few dragons in Icecrown Citadel to monitor the movements of Undead. The remaining people returned to Wyrmrest Temple and only waited for the preparations to be completed before heading to Ulduar to completely eliminate Loken and Yogg-Saron.
"Then let's say goodbye for now. I'll go find Archaedas to see if he can calm down some of the restless energy in this sword." Aaron looked at the Frostmourne in his hand and said to Krasus.
Aaron sealed all the death and ice magic in Frostmourne within the sword body to ensure that the sword would not cause harm to him.
However, Frostmourne is not as quiet as he seems on the surface. He is resisting Aaron all the time, causing Aaron to spend most of his energy suppressing the sword along the way.
Although the sword Frostmourne is named "Filial Son Sword" by some people, Aaron, as a time traveler, naturally does not care about this matter. He just wants to get the sword completely when he sees the sword falling into his hands.
However, the reaction of this sword made Aaron feel uneasy. If at a critical moment, this sword pitted Aaron, it would be terrible, but Aaron didn't want to Qiangxin used Holy Light to offset all the magic power in the sword body, which would probably only result in a pile of fragments. Fortunately, Aaron knew Archaedas, an excellent forger.
"Then let's part ways for now. Once all the dragons who have responded to Her Majesty's call arrive, we can march towards Ulduar." Krasus said.
"Goodbye then..." Aaron was about to say this, but he noticed an unusual giant dragon flying past his field of vision from the corner of his eye. He quickly turned his head and looked over. After seeing the guy's appearance clearly, Aaron couldn't help but widen his eyes and said in a voiceless voice, "Things are a bit bad."
