Chapter 433: Cowardly
Charlemagne touched his chin while looking at the scene on the arcane screen and said, "The form is relatively clear. Although the undead army is huge in number, Illidan is on the side of the Allied Forces in Outland as an arrow to break through. If Arthas can't come back In two days at most, Illidan will break through the gate of Icecrown Citadel and enter the interior."
Calpurnia looked at the dilapidated gate of Icecrown Fortress, turned to Charlemagne and asked, "Duke Theron, don't we need to provide assistance to Illidan? If this ship joins the attack, it should help them break through the defense faster." .”
"It's not that easy." Charlemagne shook his head, reached out and adjusted the screen of the Arcane Display to the city wall, "Did you see that since the dragon army raided last time, Ner'zhul, the most cowardly guy, has been insane A large amount of anti-aircraft firepower has been deployed around the castle, and we will be in danger if we enter the field rashly."
The arcane screen clearly shows many large harpoon launchers and undead vrykuls arranged on the outer wall of Icecrown Fortress. If the Silvermoon dares to enter the range of Icecrown Fortress rashly, it may be inserted in minutes. Become a hedgehog.
Valeira had a funny look on her face, "This Ner'zhul is too cowardly. Wouldn't it be more helpful for the battle if these tall undead Vrykul were allowed to join the front line? What are you doing sticking to these harpoon launchers? "
Charlemagne shrugged his shoulders and jokingly said, "That guy was scared by the air force, and now he has not been able to steal the ice dragon, and it is difficult to guarantee 100% air supremacy by relying on gargoyles alone, so he simply made such a large number of anti-aircraft guns. "
Calpurnia sighed depressingly, "So that's it... It's a pity that we really can't get close."
"No, that's not necessarily true." Charlemagne showed a sly smile on his face, "Now we can't enter the arena, but as Illidan's army penetrates deeper into the core area of the fortress, I believe Ner'zhul will not Let these vrykul continue to stick to the Harpoon Cannon, after all, Illidan has no air force."
Now the gargoyles in the sky are all shot down by the lightning spells and bows of the Naga. Every time Vashj releases a forked lightning, you can see a lot of gargoyles falling from the sky like dumplings. The Naga guarding the position led by her , the gargoyles didn't play much of a role.
"Let's go, let's get down to business first. After we solve the problem of Sindragosa, we should have the opportunity to provide some help to Illidan."
"Yes! Heading to the north, the observers pay attention to observe the ground, and report immediately when they find a large keel."
The search for Sindragosa's tomb went very smoothly. Charlemagne vaguely remembered that the location where Alsace pulled Sindragosa up seemed to be in a frozen lake.
Sure enough, the Silver Moon found a large ice lake in the northeast of the Icecrown Fortress battlefield. Although most of the area has been covered by snow, the ice-blue lake frozen under the snow can still be seen.
Charlemagne briefly compared the nearby terrain, nodded to Calpurnia and said, "It should be near here, land on the ground, and dig out Sindragosa's bones as soon as possible, I'm afraid of the Icecrown Fortress if it's too late." Mishaps will happen.”
"Yes, I will send miners to start digging immediately after landing."
Considering this thick icy lake, Charlemagne specially went to the city to recruit a group of miners when the Silver Moon went to Sandara City for supplies, including some members of the Expedition Association sent by Brian to find Muradin's whereabouts. .
Almost all of these dwarves are good at digging pits. With them in charge of digging, the work should be completed quickly.
While Charlemagne was digging a hole in the freezing Icecrown Glacier, Arthas was leading Anub'arak to kill the Azronelub rebels across the entire ancient kingdom.
"Anub'arak, how far are we from Icecrown Citadel? The urging of the Lich King in my mind is becoming more and more urgent. You can feel it too."
Anub'arak smiled wryly after hearing Alsace's question mark, "That's right, the Lich King seems to be a little hysterical now, the demon hunter's army has entered the fortress, and is gradually disarming the mechanism and continuing to move forward. The Frozen Throne, where the Lich King sits, is not far away."
"Hmph, Illidan Stormrage... I didn't expect that the knife that was handed out to kill Tichondrius back then cut himself back, really..."
Arthas shook his head and ordered loudly, "Speed up! We must rush back to the Icecrown Citadel to stop Illidan before he reaches the Frozen Throne. If the Lich King is killed, it will be hard for all of us."
Ner'zhul's ability to control a large number of undead is due to the large amount of mental power he gathered in the Helm of Dominion. If the Lich King dies and the Helm of Domination is taken away, all the undead will completely fall into an uncontrollable state of rage. At that time, all plans of Alsace will be in vain.
"Yes! There are still about three days before we reach the exit of Icecrown Citadel. We must return to the Lich King before Illidan!"
These three days are completely enough for Charlemagne. Thanks to the efforts of the dwarven miners, he has initially seen the huge keel buried in the icy lake.
"As expected of the remains of Sindragosa, the queen of the blue dragon, the scale of this keel...may be about the same size as Taran and Eranikus when filled."
When Charlemagne sighed, the hard-working miners were still digging the keel under the icy lake. Fortunately, the icy lake was relatively shallow, otherwise it would be a bad idea to fish out the heavy keel from the bone-chilling lake. A pleasant job.
On the second day after the excavation work started, under the heavy reward given by Charlemagne, the adventurer miners worked hard to dig all night, and finally dug the entire shallow ice lake in the afternoon, and a large number of keels were piled up on the ground. Among the huge tarpaulins that have been prepared.
The goblin who was the leader of the adventurer miners rubbed his hands and said flatteringly, "There are no more keel bones nearby. These should be the whole quantity, Duke Theron, the reward you promised us..."
Charlemagne carefully counted the outline of the keel, and it should have been assembled.
However, when he turned his head to look at the goblin adventurer, he warned with sharp eyes, "I will not break my promise in terms of rewards, but if I know that any of you have secretly hidden a piece, I will capture you even if you escape to the ends of the earth. Throw it to the dragon clan for execution, don't think I'm joking!"
The goblin hurriedly shook his hand and said, "No, no! Even us goblins don't dare to offend the dragons at will. There are plenty of ordinary keel bones in the world. Why do we have to intercept this, don't you think?"
"Hmph! It's better, go to Valeira to get the reward."
The goblin immediately showed a bright smile when he heard this, nodded and bowed and said, "Yes! Thank you, Duke Theron, if you have any cooperation projects in the future, you can come to Sandara to find our gold coin consortium!"
Thanks to book friends "victor Liu" and "Qiye Xuelie" for their support.
