Chapter 464: The New Owner of the Soul Box
On the cold frozen throne, there was a figure wearing a helmet and sitting on the throne with his head tilted. This was Arthas. Now he has become the new Lich King. But the Lich King is now sleeping.
Richard stood in front of the ice that sealed the Lich King and watched quietly, as if he wanted to remember this scene forever. After a while, Richard closed his eyes. When he opened them again, Richard's hands were already covered with purple powder. Richard meticulously smeared the powder on the ice. Arthas, who had just completed the fusion, was frozen and had no ability to resist. If it were normal, this would be the safest place. This place is located in the deepest part of Icecrown Citadel, and there are undead guards everywhere outside. However, this place is indeed the most dangerous at this moment, because no undead dares to step into it. In the previous attack, Richard left a locating mark in his energy. This mark fell out when Arthas broke Ner'zhul's ice coffin, and Richard was able to teleport here with Onyxia very easily.
When Richard's attack on Azeroth began, a unified and stable undead race was uncontrollable, so they had to be made chaotic. The best way was to get rid of their leader. Richard was doing exactly this now. The Lich King gave instructions to other skeletons through his brain seeds, and put the Lich King in a place that was isolated from the signal, and his control over the undead disappeared. Coincidentally, Richard had many such places, and Nightmare Abyss was the best one. That is where Xavius was born, and it is also the place where the nightmare is most concentrated. Even a faceless man will be twisted into a nightmare monster within one second.
In a flash, the powder was smeared into the desired shape, and after a flash, the ice coffin and the entire throne disappeared from Icecrown Citadel.
"The Lich King should sleep forever, and the nightmare will let him leave here forever without pain. Onyxia, let's go to the next stop."
Onyxia, who was on guard at the side, relaxed and walked to Richard and asked, "Will it become a nightmare monster..."
Richard shook his head: "No, I won't open the ice coffin, just let him lie there forever."
Onyxia nodded, started the hearthstone, and returned to the Undead Inn in the wilderness with Richard. As Richard wished, without the connection to the Lich King, all the undead became chaotic. Richard and Onyxia stayed in the inn for three days. The first day after losing the enslavement of the Lich King, the undead became chaotic and attacked each other everywhere. Only a few of them hid in the endless snow.
There are only two places in the great Northrend that are in a peaceful state. One is Azjol-Nerub. They returned to the rain and restored their kingdom, but in a different form. The other place is Naxxramas. At the beginning, Naxxramas was in chaos, or a great chaos. The undead there were frantically looking for things, but they couldn't find them after searching for a whole night. Now they have regained their peace, and Richard's second stop is here.
The Awake Temple has now been taken over by Alexstrasza. Richard and Onyxia rested there for a while and flew east to Naxxramas. Naxxramas was floating in the same place without moving. Onyxia brought Richard to this aerial fortress without much effort.
"Oh? Are they ready to welcome us?"
Onyxia landed on Naxxramas. The guards beside her did not react. A nerubian lord who looked similar to Anub'arak walked out of the gate. Richard recognized him. His name was Anub'Brekhan, the gatekeeper of the spider area of Naxxramas.
The big spider walked in front of Onyxia, bowed slightly, looked at the two people and said: "You two, our master has been waiting for you for a long time, please follow me."
"You stay here." Richard patted Onyxia's neck, jumped down and followed Anubrekan into the room.
Richard did not encounter any obstacles along the way. Anubrekan did not say anything, and Richard did not ask anything. Soon they arrived at the most central area. Anubrekan bowed and left. There was only one living person, one dead person and a cat left in this area.
Richard looked at Kel'Thuzad in front of him: "Long time no see, Master, did you know I was coming?"
Kel'Thuzad gently stroked Mr. Bigglesworth, and Mr. Bigglesworth meowed comfortably. Kel'Thuzad opened his mouth, with cold air rushing out of it: "Northrend is in such chaos now, no fool would dare to challenge Naxxramas. Anyone who dares to come here must be my guest. Is my soul box okay?" "
Of course, it's fine. I'm very considerate to keep it for you and even built a room specifically for it."
Richard threw a crystal to Kel'Thuzad. Kel'Thuzad injected energy into it, and the crystal turned into a light screen. The light screen showed Richard a room, and the room contained Kel'Thuzad's soul box. Kel'Thuzad's Soul Relic was stolen by Valeera. When Richard attacked Icecrown Citadel, Kel'Thuzad hurried back to Northrend and mobilized the troops of Naxxramas. Then the undead spies of Naxxramas cooperated with Valeera to successfully steal Kel'Thuzad's Soul Relic. Kel'Thuzad was very strict in protecting his Soul Relic. Valeera used her intuition as a shadow worker to finally find the Soul Relic and successfully brought it back to Kozan Island.
"Hmph!" Kel'Thuzad snorted coldly, looked at Richard coldly, and asked coldly: "Lord Richard, you took my Soul Box, you didn't want to collect it, did you? It has no collection value, you might as well give it back to me."
"Hahaha, of course not for collection. But, the Soul Box cannot be given to you yet, I need your help." Richard's smile gradually disappeared from his face. Kel'Thuzad said nothing, Richard continued, "The undead are now leaderless, and someone needs to stand up and lead them on the right path. Of course, this is not to let you become the Lich King, and no one will become the Lich King again."
"The undead are also divided into many factions, and only Naxxramas will listen to me."
"Someone will help you, you don't need to worry. So, tell me your decision now."
"Do I have any other choice?"
"Of course." Richard nodded.
Kel'Thuzad sneered: "True death? That's something only fools would choose. I have no choice."
"Very good, welcome to join us, in the future, this world will belong to us."
"I hope so..." Kel'Thuzad didn't think Richard and his team could defeat the demons.
"Then now, let's go meet your new partner."
