The restored ice bridge surprised the high elves, but the mage group immediately gathered their magic power and launched another attack. Soon the ice bridge broke, but another blue light rose, and the broken ice bridge was repaired again. Even this time, the blue light did not disappear after repairing the bridge, but continued to spread around. Several similar ice bridges immediately appeared on the surrounding sea. The huge undead army immediately dispersed along these bridges and advanced towards the island of Quel'Danas. No matter how the high elf mage group continued to destroy the ice bridge, Arthas could restore the bridge with the power of Frostmourne. Looking at the elven mage group that was constantly casting spells on the island in front, Arthas rode an ordinary skeleton horse and sneered: "Don't you think it's too late to want to destroy the ice bridge now?" Although this place is still a few kilometers away from the island, even if the bridge is destroyed and the undead army falls into the sea, they can still climb up to the island little by little. What's more, the sea is full of seawater. With the power of the artifact Frostmourne, a bridge can be easily built. He is not afraid of the war of attrition between the elven mages. If the mage from Silvermoon City came, he would still be afraid. As for the long-eared people on the island, they don't know the power of the artifact. Unless they can destroy the entire Ice Bridge at once, otherwise, Quel'Danas Island, he will definitely take it! Endless undead armies landed on Quel'Danas Island, and the elves immediately launched a powerful attack. The skeletons, zombies, and ghouls that had just landed were directly drowned by bows and spells. But then the undead army behind immediately filled the gap, and more skeletons came up.
At the beginning, relying on the power of the rune barrier, the high elves blocked the undead army outside the barrier, and they could easily shoot and kill those undead creatures. Although the undead army was overwhelming, it was impossible to break the elves' barrier. If it continued to consume, the undead army would definitely be consumed in the end. After all, the undead army was not truly endless. Although the high elves were surprised by the number and madness of the undead army, they were not afraid because they had the rune barrier and the Sunwell. The mage group behind was using the magic of the Sunwell to cast large-scale war magic. Each time this large-scale war magic could cause the death of thousands of undead. The mage group continued to gather energy to cast spells, but at this time, they did not know that the rune barrier had been secretly destroyed. Dalkan took advantage of the mage group casting spells and used his identity to suddenly destroy the energy nodes in the barrier. The next second, a dark blue sword light rushed out from the undead army and instantly chopped on the rune barrier. The rune barrier that was originally as solid as a rock was shattered like crystal at this moment. Powerful magic energy exploded, and violent energy fluctuations directly blew away the front-line armies of both sides. The high elf mage group that was casting was disturbed by the violent magic energy explosion. The spell that was about to take shape instantly lost control, and the mage group was instantly backfired by the violent magic energy. The powerful mage corps of the high elves was directly destroyed at this moment. At the same time, without the rune barrier to block it, the tide-like undead army also swarmed in. Faced with the shocking change, the elite elf warriors immediately counterattacked. Although they could kill skeletons, zombies, and ghouls with one knife, there were still a steady stream of undead coming up behind. Endless undead came up, and they were constantly chopped to death by the elf warriors, or shot to death by the ranger's bows and arrows, or blown into pieces of meat by the flying fireball. But all this could not stop the undead army from approaching. Hundreds of thousands of undead were besieging frantically, and a small hill was piled up on the ground. Even so, the undead army still did not retreat and continued to attack. The elves kept retreating, abandoning one line of defense after another. The sun set, the moon rose, the battle lasted from day to night, and from night to day. The undead army continued to attack tirelessly, and the high elves were exhausted by the fierce battle. In addition to physical fatigue, the mental blow was even more serious for them. Even though they fought so bravely, the number of undead armies was still endless. They had no pain, no fatigue, no need to eat, and they kept attacking, attacking, and attacking again. The sophisticated elf swords were damaged, and the warriors didn't even have time to change weapons and rest. All the reserve troops had already been put on the battlefield. The elves could only defend continuously, and under the oppression of the undead army, they didn't even have time to eat. Although the elves were powerful, they were not tireless war machines. They would also get tired, injured, and die. In this fierce battle, more and more elf soldiers were killed by the undead after exhausting their physical strength. The elves' magicians could no longer cast spells. After being attacked by the spells, their strength was greatly reduced. That kind of war magic could not be cast again. Without the help of the elves' war magic, the elves' warriors and rangers could not stop the endless undead. War magic can eliminate a large number of enemies at once, and they are the key to turning the tide of the war. Unfortunately, the elves' magicians did not play the role they should have and lost their combat effectiveness. After a series of hard battles, the elves despairingly found that the undead army in front of them was still endless, and it seemed that all their resistance had become useless.
What made them even more desperate was that they found that their dead comrades were resurrected by the undead and became the minions of the undead army, and began to raise their butcher knives to their former comrades. Countless elven warriors had to kill their comrades with their own hands. This made the entire elven kingdom terrified and angry. The comrades who had just fought side by side began to fight with swords the next moment. The double blow to the body and mind made the elves collapse. Finally, under the attack of the tide-like undead army, the last battle line formed by the high elves was completely broken. Countless undead trampled on their corpses and filled the Sunwell Plateau. And soon those elven warriors who had just died on the battlefield were resurrected as undead. The high elf kingdom was defeated in this battle. King Anasterian looked at the death knight Arthas in front of him and wanted to kill him. But his magic power had been exhausted in the battle. Seeing this, Arthas drew out Frostmourne and slashed it with a sword. Anasterian squeezed out the last magic power in his body and controlled the Flamestrike in his hand, wanting to die with Arthas. But he was too tired and was no match for Arthas holding Frostmourne. Anasterian never thought that the High Elf Kingdom would fail so easily. In just one day and one night, the powerful Elf Kingdom had fallen to such a state. In addition to Arthas, the traitor was the one who caused these consequences. Dalkan, the great wizard who had participated in the construction of the High Elf Rune Boundary. At the most critical moment of the Elf Kingdom, he suddenly destroyed the Rune Boundary. Frostmourne slashed down with powerful force, and Anasterian continued to resist with the power of Flamestrike. But the Elf King, who was exhausted, was no match for Arthas. Arthas was not in a hurry to kill him, he wanted to vent his frustration under Silvermoon City. "Long ears, your proud kingdom will be completely destroyed by me. I will kill all the high elves and then resurrect them as undead." "Your people will eventually become minions of the Scourge! As commanders of the Scourge, they will wash the world with chaos and destruction!" "Or you can beg for mercy from me, and I will mercifully let you be the first witness to see the destruction of Quel'Danas, and then kill you!" Alsace attacked while mocking wantonly, and each of his swords was powerful and heavy. Frostmourne once again knocked Anasterian away with endless power, and even a crack appeared on the Flame Strike in his hand. "Arthas, you patricide! You destroyed your country and killed your father with your own hands. You won today, but we will not surrender. One day, the flames of revenge of the high elves will burn you to ashes!" "Stupid long ears, you are looking for death!" Arthas was hurt by Anasterian's words. Although he killed his father and destroyed his country, he still felt that he was a good king in his heart. You see, if he killed everyone, the people of Lordaeron would not be affected by the plague and would not have to suffer. Why don't you understand me? Why do my friends and lovers choose to betray me! In this case, I will turn all of you into my loyal subordinates! Arthas was furious, holding Frostmourne, and slashed at the Elf King fiercely. "Crack!" A dull whine sounded, and the Flame Strike that carried the glory of the High Elf Royal Family was completely cut off. After Frostmourne cut off the Flame Strike, it continued to move forward, and finally pierced the Elf King's chest fiercely. With the breaking of Flamestrike and the death of Anasterian, the era of the glorious Kingdom of Quel'Danas of the High Elves also came to an end. Quel'Danas Island no longer had any power to resist, and a large number of high elves were killed. Only a part of the civilians were ordered by the king to move to Silvermoon City as soon as possible after the battle was unfavorable. But even so, in this war, the high elves lost 70% of their troops, almost all high-level mages, and tens of thousands of civilians. In the end, the high elves who fled to Silvermoon City added up to only 40,000 to 50,000 people. The Kingdom of Quel'Danas once had a population of more than 100,000, but now it has less than 50,000. After killing the Elf King, Arthas directly ordered the massacre of all the high elves on the island. Then he came to the Sunwell and threw the ashes of Kel'Thuzad into the Sunwell.
Then he performed the Undead Resurrection Spell. Under the powerful magic infusion in the Sunwell, Kel'Thuzad successfully resurrected and became a lich. After resurrecting Kel'Thuzad, Arthas ordered his men to find all the corpses of the high elf mages, and then throw them into the Sunwell. With the help of the huge magic power of the Sunwell, all these corpses were resurrected into corpse wizards. Although these corpse wizards would lose most of their memories and spell abilities after resurrection, they were still spellcasters. The elf mage group eventually became the undead magic group of the Scourge. The corpse fluids of the remaining elven warriors and rangers were all resurrected by him. After completing these, Arthas did not stop. Standing on the Sunwell Plateau, he looked across the strait at Silvermoon City on the other side of the strait. Silvermoon City is the largest city of the high elves. There are more elves there. He, Arthas, did what he said and must transform all the high elves into undead. After a large number of undead were resurrected from the Sunwell, the Sunwell, once the most important energy source for the high elves, was completely polluted by the energy of the dead. The original magic energy turned into evil dark energy. These evil dark energies began to erode the surrounding land. And these polluted energies began to spread into the air and spread to the entire island of Quel'Danas. The entire island of Quel'Danas began to undergo tremendous changes. The golden woods began to wither, and a large number of flowers and plants died. The city buildings that originally used magic power to operate also began to be polluted by dark energy. The sky also changed from bright to gray. The invasion of evil energy made the earth dry and cracked, turning it into a barren and smelly black-brown land. The rivers and lakes became turbid and the air was filled with stench. The creatures living here were also polluted by evil energy, and a large number of creatures died as a result. And this power soon spread to Silvermoon City. Richard was the first to notice the change in energy. The originally pure arcane energy suddenly turned into dark energy containing death blasphemy. There was also a faint smell in the air, and those high elves who relied heavily on magic power also found the problem. This power disgusted them very much, and if they stayed in this environment for a long time, these high elves would get sick, die, and eventually turn into undead. "Sir, what's going on?" Sylvanas hurried to the Mage Tower and asked. "There's something wrong with the Sunwell." Richard said. "The Kingdom of Quel'Danas was built on the Sunwell and enjoyed the abundant energy of the Sunwell. Now the energy of the Sunwell has been polluted, and these polluted energies have begun to spread along the previous energy network." "Finally, the entire Kingdom of Quel'Danas will be shrouded by this energy." "The Sunwell? The Sunwell has the royal family and nobles, and it also gathers 70% of Quel'Danas' elite soldiers and high-level mages. How can it be polluted?" Sylvanas was unwilling to believe it. After all, in her opinion, with so many troops stationed and gathering the most powerful forces of the Kingdom of Quel'Danas, how could they fail? They can't fail! But the iron-clad facts told her that the elite of Quel'Danas did not stop the Scourge.
