The Blood Elf Warrior in the outpost poured out.

"Fight, for Quel'Thalas —Salama, Azsharanori!"

"For the glory of the Sin'dorei!"

"Stop them!"

Shouts rose and fell, and the dozens of Blood Elf Warrior in the outpost became the first obstacle the Elemental Legion encountered.

Magical light and arrows danced in the air, raining down on the Elemental Tide ahead, only to vanish in the blink of an eye, like snowflakes falling into Boiling water, without a trace.

A barrage of Frostbolt rained down on them, the frost streaking across the night sky like shooting stars, leaving trails in the darkness. Several Blood Elf exposed to the arrows were instantly riddled with holes, while the rest retreated into watchtowers, continuing to blow their horns.

The Water Elemental rushed up the spiraling stairs of the watchtower and engaged the Blood Elf in melee combat. The horn blasts continued unabated, and lights were already lit on the walls of Silvermoon City in the distance.

(Damn it, still haven't found it? But it's okay, we were going to force our way in anyway.)

Azathoth (Water Elemental Lord): "Incompetent trash, get out of my way!"

Xiao Yu didn't have much time to waste. He squeezed through the elemental army, activated the Ice Barrier, and rushed towards the watchtower. His massive body was the same height as the watchtower, and the cold spread outwards from him as if it were a tangible force. The Blood Elf who were fighting soon felt the cold corroding their bodies and minds.

"Commander Kanlei, are you alright?" Ailun Mingyi looked at his captain, who was covered in blood, and stood frozen in fear. The cold had coated Sergeant Kanlei with a layer of frost, and he looked like he wasn't breathing.

Ailun knew he had to leave this place of death, but wouldn't rushing out also mean certain death?

"Hey, are you still alive? Let's charge out together!" Someone slapped him hard on the shoulder. Turning around, he saw it was the mage apprentice, Maxierla Morningstar. There was no fear in the girl's eyes, but rather a fierce fighting spirit. This made Ailun feel ashamed, realizing that he was not even as good as a woman.

"I'm still alive! But how can we possibly break out?"

"I have a spell that might help us break through."

She said, "But you have to protect my back. Stay close to me after we get out, and we'll escape straight to the ruins of Silvermoon City."

"Understood."

The two arrived at another exit below the watchtower. The moment they pushed open the door, Maxierla Morningstar swung her staff violently, and a dragon head made of flames suddenly appeared at the top of her staff, spewing out a torrent of flames.

Dragon's Breath! Using the intense magical energy, the Blood Elf mage charged forward, Ailun hurriedly followed.

A Water Elemental tried to block their path, but was instantly vaporized by the dragon's breath, and the other Water Elemental quickly moved aside.

"A great opportunity!" Ailun thought to himself as he rushed out, as if he saw a glimmer of hope for escape. Then, a large hand extinguished that hope completely.

A giant hand made of water completely ignored the burning flames, grabbed the two of them, and lifted them up.

Ailun stared in horror at the 'giant' formed from water before him. The water-formed hands were not cold and icy; instead, they faintly emitted scorching steam.

Azathoth (Water Elemental Lord): "Insects, is it you who sounded the alarm?" Xiao Yu looked at the two tiny Blood Elf before him and asked in the deep voice unique to the elementals.

"No, no, we were just passing by," Ailun replied, trembling. At that moment, this was the only answer he could think of.

Another young Blood Elf woman puffed out her chest, "It was I who sounded the horn," she said, "Lord Lor'themar will be here with his army soon, you can't escape."

"An interesting fellow," Xiao Yu thought to himself.

Azathoth (Water Elemental Lord): "Hahahaha, run away? Why run away? I wish he would come, but I'm afraid he doesn't have the guts. Let me go instead."

"You're going to Silvermoon City? Don't be ridiculous, you can't possibly conquer Silvermoon City," Maxierla said incredulously.

Azathoth (Water Elemental Lord): "Silvermoon City has been breached once before, and it will naturally be breached a second time."

After saying that, he ignored the two Blood Elf and tossed them to his men.

Azathoth (Water Elemental Lord): "Sairen, imprison them and await my return to deal with them together. Now, take your men and guard this place. The rest of you, follow me!"

Xiao Yu had no interest in these small fry; getting into the city was the most important thing right now.

Silvermoon City boasts towering walls and formidable defenses, with its gates reinforced by magic, making them incredibly difficult to destroy. However, Silvermoon City has one weakness: the Dead Scar.

When the Scourge attacked Silvermoon City, they swept through it, leaving a trail of dark, barren land in their wake. This Dead Scar, known as the Dead Scar, was a long depression that ran through the Eversong Woods. Even Eversong Woods Silvermoon City's towering walls couldn't withstand the Scourge's advance; the walls crumbled, and the Scourge stormed into the Silvermoon City, passing through its Silvermoon City. After the Scourge withdrew, the Blood Elf recaptured Silvermoon City. However, despite some repairs, they didn't fully restore the walls, merely patching the breaches with rubble. This defense might be effective against ordinary enemies, but it was utterly useless against the Water Elemental Lord.

Azathoth (Water Elemental Lord): "Summon the power of the sea and the tides! I will make the ocean my chariot and tear the walls of Silvermoon City to shreds!" he shouted to his men.

The sea elemental elders and Water Elemental elders used the Tidal Spell again, and its power was extraordinary. The seawater flowed upstream, pouring into the depression of the Dead Scar along the Sunfury River. Then, under the control of the many elemental elders, it surged towards the interior of Silvermoon City like a canal.

In Silvermoon City, the garrison had already reacted. The city walls were filled with Blood Elf Warrior, rangers, and mages, and all kinds of defensive systems were in operation. Having experienced the city's breach once before, the Blood Elf were very sensitive to invasions, even somewhat like frightened birds.

Aier Burning Scar stood on the city wall, anxiously looking at the darkness in front of it. Why would someone suddenly attack Silvermoon City? Was it the Alliance? But the Alliance and the Horde had been at peace recently, and Silvermoon City was located at the northernmost tip of Azeroth. Even if the Alliance were to attack, they should have attacked Undercity first.

Just then, a raging torrent rushed in, following the Dead Scar.
