" Night Elf! Humans! All races on this planet! All life! You will all pay the price for this arrow!" Archimonde saw Tyrande collapse to the ground, exhausted; saw Anveena vanish completely from the orange bow Thori'dal; saw Cenarius fall weakly; saw Tortolla in a pool of blood.
He knew that no force could stop him anymore.
Medivh?
His own strength was only at the Demigod level, so he still couldn't possibly be his match, even though he was already seriously injured.
Malfurion?
That Night Elf Druid was indeed remarkable, having received the favor of nature. He once mobilized the ancient power of Kalimdor to send him back to the Twisting Nether, but that time he used the power of the Great Explosion of the Well of Eternity.
Malfurion alone?
It's simply impossible!
There is no second Malorne in this world. Even if there were, she would only have the fate of breaking her own neck!
There is no other Tyrande in this world. No one can act as a medium to channel such immense Moon Goddess power, so no one can threaten him.
Archimonde turned and walked toward the World Tree.
It's not advisable to engage in a direct confrontation with the enemy for now, because if Medivh, Malfurion, and the others really fight to the death, they might actually kill him, since he's already severely injured and his strength is less than half of what it used to be.
He was so close to the World Tree that just a few breaths of its essence would heal his wounds.
The sky is burning; it is Archimonde's wrath, the symbol of the Burning Legion.
He quickly reached the foot of the World Tree, then grabbed its roots and began to climb upwards.
As Archimonde stepped into the second Well of Eternity, a hint of disdain appeared on his face.
This Well of Eternity is actually meaningless now; 99% of its energy has been absorbed by the World Tree, which is his true target.
This primordial Titans power now flows throughout the World Tree, and he will drain the tree dry.
Archimonde is ambitious.
He understood this planet; he knew that a being even more powerful than its master would be born from it. Right now, it was just beginning, like a little girl a few years old.
The Old Gods parasitized her; it was the Void Lords ' plan to transform her into Void Titan.
Sargeras, the master, also had his own plans: to completely Devastation this planet and thwart the Void Lords ' schemes.
Archimonde also had his own plans.
If he can absorb the power of the World Tree, he will grow to a level close to that of Sargeras, and then nothing on this planet will be able to stop him, nor will Sargeras, who is far beyond infinite space, be able to stop him.
Then he could go a step further and try to obtain all the power of this planet. Perhaps he would replace the newly born Titans and become a being that surpasses Sargeras.
His target was also the Void Lords, but the one who controlled everything was no longer Sargeras, but Archimonde!
Archimonde looked up at the World Tree that soared into the clouds, thinking that climbing up would be too slow and a waste of time. He couldn't give Medivh and Malfurion time to prepare their ultimate abilities, so he would absorb the power here.
He began to absorb energy.
At that moment, Medivh, far away on the Un'Goro Crater, turned to look at Malfurion and said, "Let's begin!"
Alright, let's begin!
Malfurion nodded, then picked up the Horn of Cenarius and blew it.
This artifact was imbued with mysterious power, and the sound of its horn resounded throughout Mount Hyjal.
The entire mountain seemed to be awakened; all the plants and animals heard the call, and endless natural energy began to surge and converge towards the World Tree from all directions.
Then, one by one, glowing Wisp emerged from the trees; these were the spirits left behind by the dead Night Elf, essentially the Night Elf version of the Ancestral Spirit.
Half of Shaman's power comes from the elements, and the other half from the Ancestral Spirit.
But a Shaman,
How many Ancestral Spirit can be summoned? What appears here now are the essences of all the dead of the Night Elf over the past ten thousand years!
What an immense power that is!
The power of each individual spirit is not strong, but when the power of all the spirits is gathered together, it is far more powerful than the Arrow of the Moon Goddess from before!
That's not all.
At the same time, the energy of the World Tree was also activated by the horn, and the blessings bestowed upon this giant tree by several Dragon Kings were also activated at this moment.
"What... what's going on? This is soul energy! This is Arcane energy! This is the power of nature! This is the power of the Dragon Aspects! These powers... how is this possible! No, no, I can't die, my goal must be achieved! The World Tree is mine!"
At this moment, Archimonde truly panicked.
He stretched out his finger and pointed randomly at the sky.
One Finger of Death vanquished one Wisp after another, but these dead Wisp unleashed a powerful explosion—an energy-level explosion that blasted away a portion of the energy within them.
Thousands, even more, of the Wisp swarmed around him and then self-destructed!
At the same time, the power of the World Tree finally erupted! When all the energy concentrated and exploded, Archimonde could no longer withstand it.
The energy within him was stirred up, then went berserk and became uncontrollable.
The external energy and the energy within his body combined to form an energy storm powerful enough to destroy everything. Bright cracks began to appear on his blue body, and then, with a roar of unwilling defiance, his entire body exploded!
The rampaging Fel instantly ignited, setting the World Tree ablaze with the explosion.
Archimonde is dead, the World Tree will be destroyed, and the Night Elf' ten thousand years of accumulated strength will be completely exhausted.
This is the original ending.
But now, because of Anveena's arrow, the outcome has changed.
Two-thirds of the swarming Wisp self-destructed, and Archimonde could no longer withstand it. The remaining Wisp did not self-destruct, thus preserving to some extent the ancestral essence of the Night Elf.
The blessings of the Dragon Kings and the energy of the World Tree erupted together, but when Archimonde was triggered to self-destruct, although the power of the Dragon Aspects was exhausted, a portion of the World Tree's power remained. This power protected the World Tree amidst the Fel Flame of Archimonde's self-destruction.
Everything around was destroyed by unimaginable Fel Flame, but only two-thirds of the World Tree withered, the rest remained intact.
This is also the foundation that the Night Elf have preserved.
Although the Dragon King's blessing is gone and the Night Elf will completely lose their immortality, their connection with the World Tree remains, and they are still an immortal species, able to live for thousands of years without any problem.
The greatest contributor to this battle was Medivh, as he was the one who guided everything. However, he had already disappeared when Archimonde died, and no one knew where he went. Even Nozdormu could not find any trace of him.
The two Demigod fought desperately to stop Archimonde, and were nearly on the verge of death. They were left to recuperate in the Well of Eternity World Tree, and it is unknown how long it will take for them to recover. Their relationship with the Night Elf goes without saying.
Anveena also played a significant role, but she has fallen into a deep sleep. The real decision-makers are Malfurion and Tyrande.
Besides these people, the one who deserves the most credit is Jiang Jie.
He was the benefactor of the Night Elf.
Without him, although Archimonde could still be killed, the Night Elf ' millennia-old heritage would be completely exhausted, and the Night Elf would truly be reduced to a first-rate force comparable to humans and Orcs, losing their absolute dominance over the Kalimdor.
Anveena's contribution should also be attributed to Jiang Jie.
So when Malfurion led the Night Elf and the nature Keeper to finally drive out or kill all the demons that had occupied Mount Hyjal, and assigned tasks to hunt down and eliminate the demons, Jiang Jie received an invitation from Malfurion.
But before that, he had to meet someone else.
