Chapter 456: Icecrown Battle (Part 1)
The Lich King lives in Icecrown. When Kil'jaeden dropped the frost cage that imprisoned Ner'zhul from outer space, this huge ice tower called Icecrown Citadel was formed. When it fell from the sky, even the creatures of the entire Northrend saw the dazzling light flashing in the sky.
Now, most of them have become undead. There are more than 200,000 undead scourges in Icecrown alone. Including ghouls, crypt lords, frost dragons, abominations, death knights, necromancers, liches and other strange creatures that cannot be named are stationed and live here. However, this is only the army on the ground. There are more creatures underground in Icecrown. The largest number is humanoid spiders, that is, nerub spiders. After fighting the undead, the caves and tunnels made with exquisite craftsmanship passed down by their ancestors were absorbed by the Lich King Ner'zhul and applied to the building structure of the Undead Scourge.
It is merciless to say that every inch of land here is the eyes of the Lich King. According to common sense, with many siege props, the goal can be achieved by directly bombarding Icecrown Citadel from the air. However, Richard wanted to make a big fuss, so he had to take risks and go deep into the hinterland.
"Icecrown Glacier... It's really uncomfortable..." On the cleared Gate of Heaven's Will, Onyxia looked at the scene inside Icecrown Glacier with wrinkled nose and slightly pouted lips.
"Didn't I say this before? No living creature can survive here. There are undead everywhere. They smell bad all over, which makes people uncomfortable." Richard walked to the edge of the wall, patted it and continued, "But no matter how hateful they are, we still have to appreciate their clever choice of location and construction. This is the coldest place. The undead are not afraid of the cold, and they don't need to breathe or sleep. They can surround their king all day long, and I They can't stay here for too long. It's very difficult to wipe them out. In addition, if you look further away, every place we marked has a tall and solid fortress. Brian once observed those buildings from a distance. According to him, it would take more than ten years to complete these buildings with their dwarven construction technology. It's only been a few years. The undead are really the construction team that any construction worker dreams of. They never rest and never slack off. "
"I don't think so. They exude an elusive corpse odor all over their bodies. I won't live in the house they built."
"Maybe when you become one of those guys in the sky, you will feel at ease living in these houses."
"Qi, maybe you will never see that day in your lifetime. Alas..." Onyxia sighed as she looked at the bone dragons in the sky, "They are a group of poor guys. They were considered noble dragons when they were alive, but their souls were enslaved after death."
"Since they are pitiful, help them free, and the dragons in the sky will be handed over to you."
"Don't worry, a bunch of low-level blue dragons can't defeat me even if they change their forms."
The two of them disappeared at the Gate of Heaven at the same time, and the Battle of Icecrown Glacier officially began!
Right next to the Gate of Destiny in the northwest is Mordressa, which is the first line of defense of Icecrown. If you want to attack Icecrown from the ground, this place must be captured. However, after investigation, it is not easy to enter here. There are many death knights and stitched abominations stationed here. When necessary, the death knights will kill the abominations with plague cauldrons, cook them, and use the strong corrosion inside to recapture this place.
Right next to this is a town called Imirheim. This town is the town of the Vikuls, but there is no Vikuls here. The Vikuls were originally the first generation of creations of the Titans, and like all Titan creations, they are all stone products. Later, they were affected by the Curse of Flesh, the ancient god, and turned into flesh creatures. They believed in the Titans, but the Curse of Flesh continued to develop, weakening them and giving birth to deformed children. At that time, their leaders demanded the killing of those deformed children. Later, some of the Vrykul parents who were unwilling to kill those deformed children fled to the south, and finally the fireworks became humans in Azeroth. Later, there were more and more deformed children, and the Vrykul all went into a deep sleep more than 20,000 years ago, and have not woken up until now. The undead creatures did not care about these sleeping stone statues. The mountains around here are all mines rich in minerals. As a result, this place became a mine that worked day and night, and there were ghoul miners and supervisors everywhere.
Centered on Imirheim, in the east is the Tomb of Sindragosa, the wife of Marigos, the king of blue dragons, who died here when Deathwing betrayed the dragons. She is still sleeping, but some of the dragons who died here with him have been transformed into frost dragons, and are now fighting against Onyxia, who controls the black flame. To the north of Imirheim
is Aldussa, another line of defense for Icecrown Glacier, where most of the undead soldiers are stationed. To the west is the Sewing Field, where the Scourge Legion specializes in making abominations and meat grinders. Working here are all kinds of skeletons. They use their slender fingers and needles to turn pieces of minced meat into a body, and then put blood beads into it to give them life.
In the middle area between Imirheim and the Sewing Field, there is a small fortress called Coressa. This is the last line of defense of Icecrown Glacier. After breaking through here, only Icecrown Citadel is left.
Icecrown Citadel, just by listening to the name, it will be a fortress built on the glacier, with thick walls, solid defense towers, and a huge front door. Richard thought so before he saw its true appearance. However, the fact is just the opposite. Most of Icecrown Citadel is under the surface. A deep crack was split by the glacier on both sides. The real main force of the Scourge army is stored in it. They carved out platforms on both sides of this huge crack and built bridges, corridors, and even walls across it. Although this is the residence of the Lich King, there is no decoration, nor are there the furs and carpets of rare animals that are exclusively for the leaders of the Horde and the Alliance. There is a bonfire at the door, which is a cold blue fire. There is nothing that can bring warmth and comfort. The Scourge creatures carry out their tasks silently. There are all kinds of undead creatures, zombies, ghosts, and monsters that are completely composed of cold energy. At the bottom of the crack is the Frozen Throne, the core of Scourge, and the throne of the Lich King.
"Let's start from Icecrown Citadel!"
