Chapter 420: Frozen
Fadil Bay in the morning, the horses are boiling.
The sandy beach, which is not wide, is full of busy human soldiers; They are dressed in different attires and represent very different regions from which they come.
These human soldiers from the Elwyn Forest, the Wild West, the Hillsbrad Hills, Stratholme, and the Arathi Highlands are gathered here today as they are about to launch a final assault on the orc base camp across the Narrow Sea.
Almost all the soldiers knew that the war they had fought for years was about to be won; Although they were in different moods—the soldiers of Lordaeron were excited that they could keep the orcs out of their homeland, the soldiers of Stormwind were excited that they were able to embark on their journey home, and the soldiers of Riptide were honored that they were about to take on the task of the main attack.
"It's a real spectacle, and maybe it won't happen again for decades." Arthas stood between a group of human nobles and high-ranking military generals, and sighed in a low voice.
Arthas knew that such a scene was truly unprecedented in the original flow of time; The alliance that defeated the orcs was the last action of the Human Alliance; After that, the Alliance split again, with Fort Riptide and Gilneth withdrawing from the Alliance, Stormwind busy rebuilding, Dalaran frequently destroyed, and Lordaeron ...... Reduced to ruins under himself and Frost Sorrow's hands.
"Honestly, Prince Arthas, I'd rather never see such a scene again." Anduin? Lothar was heavily armed, his golden marshal's plate armor glistening in the sun. The blue ribbon on his chest is a symbol of his bravery and glory.
"Why, Teacher Lothar? Don't you think this scene is magnificent? Ureon was a little confused. He liked the scene of the army gathering now, and just being in it made his blood boil.
"Remember, Wrynn, that for a monarch, the stability of the people is far more precious than his personal name of valor. I'd rather never put down my sword forever, if that could bring peace to the continent. "Anduin? Lothar said.
"It's not early. Arthas, can you get her started? King Terenus looked at the rising sun and said to his son.
"I see. Father. Arthas nodded, greeted Frost Sorrow, and walked towards the beach of Fadil Bay. Countless eyes were fixed on this pair of tall and short figures, waiting for a miracle to be able to freeze the currents. What a powerful force! To be able to see such a powerful spell in my lifetime. It is a lucky thing for both a soldier from a civilian background and a general from a noble background.
Arthas had slept peacefully in the arms of Frost Sorrow last night, only to wake up to find that all the preparations had been made.
Ricks' legion with Riptide has arrived at Fort Riptide and has rested for a while; The Orc High Chief has been escorted back to Riptide Castle, but no one has the time to interrogate it, just keep it in a dark dungeon, and keep it under strict guard.
The griffon messenger bound for Dalaran returned to Fort Riptide. reported to King Solas on the movements of the group of mages; Archmage Antonidas discovered the portal from Dalaran to Dunhold Castle that Kel'thugad had built privately, shortening the distance from Dalaran to the Arathi Heights by almost half; A large number of battle mages are gathering. Soon it will be able to support the frontal battlefield here.
Going to meet the dwarven king Magni? The griffon messenger of Copperbeard has also returned, bringing back Magni? A letter from King Copperbeard to the upper echelons of the League and to his brother Muradin. The dwarven king had left Ironforge with his army and was hurrying towards the Gulf of Palatine; Magni? King Copperbeard promised to wipe out all the orcs he encountered along the way, saying that he would never let the orc army flee south; At the same time, he asked the humans and the High Elves on this side to join forces to do their best to strangle the remnants of the orcs in the wetland.
The information of Qiē pointed to the good direction of the Alliance, and the high-ranking members of the Alliance in Riptide Fort were also particularly excited. Just after this morning, Arthas was awakened by the cry of frost sorrow; After a sweet and troublesome morning intimacy with the usual frost sorrow in the ravine of his chest, Arthas took the sleepy-eyed Red Dragon Queen and King Terenus and others to the bay of Fadil with Ricks' army.
Arthas came to the seashore, and a foul smell came to his face; Last night, tens of thousands of orcs were roasted by the Red Dragon Queen, although the Knights of the Silver Hand and the Iron Horse Brotherhood were stationed here to prevent counterattacks from the orc base camp on the other side of the narrow sea, but these warriors who fought fiercely all night did not have the experience to clean up the corpses of these orcs.
Although the corpses of these orcs had not decomposed in just one day, the foul stench was inevitable.
Arthas waved his hand in front of his nose to dispel the stench a little, and then said to Frost's sorrow, "Frost, get to work!" ”
"Hmm...... Master, what do you want Xiaoshuang to do? Frost Sorrow lifted up her cuffs with gusto, revealing her white lotus arms.
"Just like that time, in Quel'Thalas...... Xiaoshuang, if you freeze this sea area, it would be nice to be able to reach the continent opposite. Arthas gestured with his hand as he lowered his voice - he didn't want the High Elves to hear what he and Frostmourn had done to their sanctuary in the original stream of time.
"Good master!" Frostmourn kicked her little white boots and ran to the beach to crouch down, plunging one of her fingers into the water, not disgusted by the fact that it had been stained into a muddy pool of orc corpses.
"Click, click", a small sound sounded from the beach, and a crystal blue ice chain, from the frost sorrow crystal white fingertips, gradually spread to the narrow sea.
"Oh!" A cry of surprise rang out from the ranks of the human soldiers, and even if they were standing far away, they could clearly see the frosty path that rushed to the depths of the narrow sea like white practice.
"It's done!" Frost Clapped Her Hands Sadly, then stood up from the beach and ran to her master, smiling like a flower asking for a reward.
Holding Frost's sad and tender little hand, Arthas returned to his father's side with countless surprised eyes, and Anduin, who had long been unable to hold back his expectations, was right? Lothar said, "Sir Lothar, the Frost Path has taken shape. Next, you can gradually spread the hay and sand you have prepared in advance on the ice road, and you can go straight to the opposite side of the Narrow Sea. (To be continued......)
