Journey Through the Plane of the Lord God
Chapter 75: The Fall of King Power: The Death of Anmu (1)
Under the dark night, a thick layer of dark clouds enveloped the royal city of Lordaeron, which is located in the essence of Tirisfal Glades.
In this royal court, which was still brightly lit late at night, the moods of all Lordaeron dignitaries and officials who were still working urgently were as depressed and irritable as the gloomy weather.
"Reporting to Your Majesty, the entire Viscounty of Milk has been captured."
"Your Majesty, one-third of the territory of the Earl of Krent has been invaded by the undead plague. Your Excellency, the Earl, is requesting assistance."
"Your Majesty, Natorun, Fernanlo, Carl... Viscount led the remnants to flee to the Duchy of Rumbala. Countless skeletons are chasing them. The commander of the Duchy requested the help of the First Regiment of the Silver Hand.
support."
······
Thanks to the Violet Sage's optimization of teleportation spells, bad news that broke out from every corner of this huge thousand-year kingdom entered the palace immediately through many convenient teleportation communication spells.
Several Lordaeron court illusion mages wearing purple robes were in the center of the palace's meeting hall, their hands conveying lavender magic towards the center of where they stood.
A three-dimensional war map of Lordaeron, composed of illusions released by mages, is updated clearly and in real time as bad news continues to come.
"Send the Second Regiment of the Silver Hand and order them to go to the Earl of Crent."
"Order the First Regiment to return from Mirk and go directly to the Duchy of Lumbala for reinforcements."
"Please ask the 300 paladins directly under the command of Commander Turalyon to go to the territory of Macra to defend against the undead invasion on the east side."
······
A group of Lordaeron military staff officers and non-priest generals stood next to the map, constantly issuing orders for action and rescue to the messengers around them.
The monarch of Lordaeron, Terenas Menethil II, is sitting on a towering throne behind these generals. Surrounded by him is a circle of hereditary knights above the earl standing at the top of the kingdom.
A truly great nobleman.
These high-ranking powerful people who truly dominate everything in Lordaeron, together with their master, are looking at the three-dimensional map representing the border of Lordaeron in front of them with depressed expressions.
Ever since Arthas, the son of His Majesty Terenas, discovered the conspiracy of Viscount Moldo to be replaced by the undead, the harmony and stability that the entire Eastern Kingdom had maintained for nearly ten years collapsed overnight.
The evil religion behind the incident of Viscount Moldo's death, called the Schismic Church, quickly launched a back-up plan that had been hidden for a long time shortly after Alsace returned to the royal capital to report.
The entire human country in the alliance, countless rural aristocratic territories and some remote villages were all reduced to a paradise for the undead overnight.
On the three-dimensional war map of Lordaeron in front of the king and nobles, the warning area for the red undead plague disaster has expanded from a dozen cities dotted here to one-fifth of the entire Lordaeron in just two weeks.
, and it is still spreading rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye.
"The Paladins of the Silver Hand and the Holy Light Priests have all been dispatched to the war zone by their subordinates."
"The situation has become increasingly pessimistic!"
"Your Majesty, we have a serious shortage of priests!"
A high-ranking general who had just issued the combat order stopped his command, turned around, saluted His Majesty on the throne and said.
In this man-made disaster, facing those corpses and skeletons without life and consciousness, the largest number of warriors, thieves, assassins and other warriors in the kingdom often need 5-10 to be able to compare with one priest against the undead.
of lethality.
Not to mention the most insidious plague virus, as long as the wounds on the body are damaged in the process of killing these undead, then except for the priests or other powerful men above the professional hero level, other low-level professions will
The person will be infected and assimilated into the undead in a short period of time, and in turn deal with friendly forces.
"We hope to get more reinforcements from the Holy Light Cross Church of the Holy Arathor Empire. We need more paladins, more glory priests and the Judgment Temple."
The general raised his head and glanced at the king and nobles in front of him, hesitated for a moment, and continued.
"Your Majesty, I have to advise you and all your lords. This undead plague caused by the traitor Kel'Thuzad of Dalaran is spreading faster and faster."
"According to the calculations of the court mages, Your Majesty, if within a week, more than half of Lordaeron's territory will be infected."
"In the next two weeks, except for those who believe in Yahweh, there will be no other living people in Lordaeron!"
The general's words caused the other staff officers to temporarily stop their work and all looked at the king on the throne.
After this inexplicable outbreak of the undead plague began, with the joint cooperation of the entire alliance, Kel'Thuzad, the controller behind the terrorist organization the Scholomance Church, has surfaced. Lothar, Uther, Antonidas and other old
A group of strong men are forming a team to hunt down the traitor.
But after all, it was discovered too late, and this plague was far more terrifying than the one in the original history. At least, the "natural disaster plague" in the original history was just caused by food being poisoned, and the people infected in the "natural disaster plague"
Undead, the secondary infection ability is not strong.
And now, Kel'Thuzad, who has not yet transformed into a great lich, has created a new contemporary undead plague under the influence of Dalaran's magic technology that has advanced rapidly in recent years, just like "Messiah's previous life" in a movie called Resident Evil.
"T virus" has a terrifying ability to be reinfected.
It is no wonder that a terrifying virus of this level would become so serious under the identification of the palace mage.
The entire hall was silent for a long time following the general's words, and finally, the deep voice of His Majesty Terenas from the throne was heard.
"I understand, Commander, please continue to command the defense!"
After the general returned to command, the king patted the right armrest of the throne, and a magic shield that could isolate sound rose from the ground, covering him and all the nobles.
The king looked at the nobles in front of him who were silent and said very tiredly.
"You once suspected that this plague was a conspiracy of the Arathor Empire, but Turalyon on the front line told me that the reason why those untouchables who believe in Yahweh will not stand up again to retaliate against us after being infected with the virus is because they died
At that moment, the soul went to heaven, instead of remaining in the body as soul fire for the driving of low-level necromancers."
"I once thought that the power and glory of Lordaeron, which has lasted for thousands of years, was so great that it could enable us to resist any threats and hardships."
"But unfortunately, I was wrong!"
In just two weeks, the once supreme ruler of Lordaeron seemed to have aged ten years. He stood up with some difficulty holding on to the throne.
"The royal guard told me."
"Two hours ago, King Thoras Trollbane of the Kingdom of Stromgard, which had already lost a quarter of its territory, announced his abdication in Stromgarde."
"In order to save his people, that warrior, under the appointment of my son-in-law's special envoy and the blessing of a cardinal archbishop of the Holy Light Cross Church, gave up most of his feudal efforts and became a member of the holy nobles of the Arathor Empire.
member."
According to the available information, the Holy Arathor Empire is the only country that has quickly extinguished the undead plague in its territory, and it is also the country known to have the largest number of priests. However, it is necessary to challenge this country that has not joined the alliance and has even been defeated by the six human nations in the alliance.
The vaguely hostile countries asked for help on a large scale. According to the emperor's order, the human kingdoms of the alliance must give up the name of independent monarchs and establish the Holy Light Cross Church as the state religion.
"Everyone, do you have anything else to say?"
The old man who was about to become the last monarch of the Menethil Dynasty in Lordaeron walked among the great nobles. Looking at these once loyal vassals, he felt helpless in his heart.
If before the undead plague came, he could still unite with the New Storm Kingdom, control the power of the six human nations in the entire alliance, and compete with the Holy Arathor Empire, then when this damn undead plague came, all his brilliant and grand plans would come to an end.
will become a fantasy.
The great nobles present, seeing the old lord in front of them, all lowered their heads in grief and stopped speaking.
In fact, at this time, the advantage of Messiah in making Karen Lothar the Holy Monarch of Arathor became apparent. Karen's direct lineage from the ancient Arathor Empire made Lordaeron the king of Lordaeron.
The conservative and old-fashioned Earl can finally accept the result of surrender in his heart, instead of fighting to the death like other untouchables who rebel.
After a while, a Marquis of the Kingdom, wearing a luxurious dress, stood up hesitantly and spoke to everyone in the soundproof circle.
"Your Majesty, gentlemen, you also know the system of the Holy Arathor Empire, so that we can live more comfortably in the future."
"After this catastrophe, we should strongly support the people of our country to believe in the three virtues, plus Archbishop Benedictus..."
The marquis kept talking about the reactionary remarks against the empire and the church. The other nobles glanced at the acquiescing expression of King Terenas standing in the center, and suddenly understood something in their hearts, and the atmosphere instantly became lively.
Unlike the extraordinary nobles who have no regard for the lives of civilians, the Holy Light Cross Church, which has been confirmed to have a true God background, attaches great importance to the lives of civilians.
In just a few minutes, more than twenty paladins holding the Three Virtues hostage, Holy Light Priests and the people who believed in it, fought against the Holy Light Cross Church after the undead catastrophe, and made the Holy Arathor Empire make a conspiracy plan to give in to its feudal power.
, it came out instantly in the mouths of these nobles.
Just when these desire for power blinded the conservative nobles, the discussion was in full swing.
"boom!"
There was another huge roar, with a slight earthquake feeling, coming from the direction of the Cathedral of the Holy Light and the Three Virtues next to the palace...
