Even though he has fallen deeply into madness, Aspect of the Black still clings to the arrogance of belonging to the dragon clan alone. Neltharion never considers himself to be Old Gods's subordinate, but regards himself as a collaborator at the same level as Old Gods, even though he became crazy amidst Old Gods's chanting.
In his opinion, he and Old Gods have a relationship where each gets what he needs, just like during War of the Ancients, Old Gods needed to lend his hand to weaken Dragon Aspects's power, and he obtained far more powerful power from that plan than before. After that, Old Gods did not help him absorb that power, but Deathwing himself tried his best to control that powerful power.
The same is true for this operation. Old Gods gave him the power to recover the damage he suffered more than ten years ago, and he will shake the foundation of the world in Deepholm, thus weakening the power of the Old Gods cage.
After all this was over, Deathwing thought that he had regained his freedom and no longer owed anything to Old Gods, so he set his target on the place where he was seriously injured, Lordaeron.
It was the first time since birth that Deathwing was hurt like this. Even when he faced Galakrond, Deathwing was not hurt so much that he had to hide in a place where no one could find him and cultivate for more than ten years. year. And when War of the Ancients was around, it almost completely destroyed one Dragonflights by itself, and was finally able to escape unscathed from the siege of four Dragonflightss and four Dragon Aspectss.
It seems to Deathwing that it will be ambushed by the dragon, entirely because the mortal Lordaeron saw through his disguise and led it into a trap. This time he will attack Lordaeron launches revenge and completely subverts this mortal country. As for the other Dragon Aspects, Deathwing will come one by one and make them pay the price one by one.
However, what Deathwing doesn't know is that his actions have already fallen under the eyes of the scouts arranged by various countries, Aaron reminded Alliance. Since the news that Aspect of the Black broke out from Maelstrom spread, Azeroth In all places where intelligent creatures live, there are people monitoring the sky at all times, in order to prevent Deathwing from suddenly descending on them - no one knows what kind of actions the crazy Aspect of the Black will take, so only early warning of Big Van can be carried out, which will also facilitate the next plan.
From Broken Isles to Kul Tiras to the west coast of Lordaeron Tirisfal Glades, sentries from all over the place reported the news to anyone who saw Aspect of the Black, and the news was quickly passed to Lordaeron by the mages who monitored the situation with the sentries, and Lordaeron, who was responsible for the leader of the Alliance alliance, also quickly spread the news along the internal network of the Alliance to all parties who needed to know the news.
After gradually confirming the trajectory of Deathwing, the dragon kings who had been prepared quickly rushed to Lordaeron, so Deathwing found that when he just appeared outside Lordaeron, there were already four familiar figures waiting for him.
Different from the battle more than ten years ago, the four Dragon Kings have gotten rid of their respective bad states and further restored their own strength.
More than ten years ago, Malygos was still the same Aspect of the Blue who was so entangled that he couldn't use his power well at all and could only rely on hatred for support, while Ysera had to focus most of his attention on In Emerald Dream, in order to pay attention to the movements of Emerald Nightmare, Nozdormu has just returned from the battlefield between Bronze Dragonflight and Infinite Dragonflight, and has no chance to repair and adjust its own power to the best state.
What was worse was Red Dragon Queen. At that time, Red Dragon Queen was controlled by Nekros using Dragon Soul. She suffered years of torture, which made her power extremely weak. At that time, she was still able to fly into the sky and fight Deathwing, all because of the anger caused by the death of her husband.
Even so, the four dragon kings still defeated Deathwing at that time.
Compared with more than ten years ago, Malygos has regained consciousness now. Although he has lost the power of Guardian of Arcane, he has gained a stronger power of Holy Light. Ysera and Nozdormu also solved their respective problems and were able to face Deathwing with all their strength. Red Dragon Queen has returned to its peak state after more than ten years of cultivation.
What's more important is that Dragon Soul, which once imprisoned a lot of their power and authority, has been broken. Now the Dragon King can be said to be a complete individual. However, this completeness is not complete. After all, part of the power was still taken away by Deathwing.
Compared with the four Dragon Aspects who have completely returned to normal, Deathwing's strength has been enhanced more obviously. After receiving the power given by Old Gods, he is now a completely different person from before.
This can be seen from the fact that his original armor can no longer restrain the explosive power in his body. During the years of Deepholm, Deathwing spent a long time asking the races he forcibly controlled to forge a new set of armor for him, and now this set of armor made of precious ores that only Deepholm has has further enhanced his power.
Facing the four dragon kings, Deathwing immediately abandoned Lordaeron and rushed towards the dragon kings. Due to the madness in his heart, Deathwing had already regarded their former brothers and sisters as absolute enemies.
Moreover, the ones who really hit him hard before were the four Dragon Aspects. This time, Deathwing had forgotten about the giant cauldrons they had defeated before, and decided to teach these four guys a lesson.
Of course, the four dragon kings were well prepared for this, and they jointly blocked his attack smoothly. Just like the battle more than ten years ago, one or two dragon kings may not be Deathwing's opponent, but when the four Dragon Aspects gather together, even if they are stronger than Deathwing, they cannot be affected.
After going through a battle that was considered difficult for both sides, Deathwing was finally repelled by the four dragon kings who had returned to their prime. Aspect of the Black had to flee after saying a harsh word and flew south to choose a place to recuperate.
However, this time Deathwing suffered much less harm than he did more than ten years ago. All he needed was to become familiar with his newly acquired power and bring this power completely under his control. He believed that by the time he finished this process, all four Dragon Aspects would pay the price for this and the last offense.
During this process, the four Dragon Aspects did not catch up rashly. After a battle, they realized that although Deathwing could not do anything to them, it was also very difficult for them to keep Deathwing. Deathwing, which had absorbed part of the power of Dragon Soul and was enhanced by Old Gods, had already somewhat restrained their power.
