"The fusion of Arthas and Ner'zhul's souls is not only a combination of strength, but also a complementation of character flaws. Your soul was once split, and although it was finally fused together, the experiences you had when you were separated created two different souls. There are still two Varians in your body at this moment. Think about it carefully. First of all, you must truly fuse your souls well. How to avoid the emergence of an impulsive and violent Varian, or a timid and smooth Varian."
Varian was stunned, and after a long pause he said, "Is it so obvious?"
"Yes!" Duke answered affirmatively, "In my opinion, you have tried very hard to do various things well, striving to prove that you are a perfect king. Unfortunately, what I see is that you have been chasing after Anduin Lothar, and you have also been stimulated by my achievements, and you are more eager to improve yourself, which has led to the signs of separation of the souls that were originally beginning to merge. Varian, you know, this is a regression. Because whether you were the gladiator ghost wolf or the cowardly you who was manipulated in the palace, like a puppet, you were all Varian Wrynn!"
Duke's words were from the bottom of his heart. If it were someone else, Duke would not have the time to say so much.
Seeing Varian's shocked look, Magni was also stroking his beard, thinking.
"Think about it carefully. I suggest you try meditation when it's late at night. It's a good way to look back to the past and reflect on yourself. Listen to the voice of the other Varian in your heart more often."
Varian finally nodded heavily: "I will preside over the landing battle in Howling Fjord first."
"Well, go ahead!"
Unlike the Borean Tundra, which has many mudflats and landing sites, the Howling Fjord has a steep and high coastline. The shore is full of reefs, and ships can be destroyed and people can die at any time. Even if you force a landing, the nearly vertical 70-degree steep wall is impossible to climb without a lift or something.
As for landing, according to the terrain, the best way is of course to enter from the canyon in the middle of Howling Fjord, just south of it. After entering, there is a harbor like an inner lake - Dagger Bay.
In the Howling Fjord area, where gales of force 7 or 8 are often raised, it is a rare safe haven. No matter how strong the storm outside is, it cannot blow the ships in Dagger Bay.
Unfortunately, it is now the lair of the Vikuls.
Putting aside the fact that King Vrykul's Utgarde Keep overlooks Dagger Bay, just the Vrykul villages on the cliffs along the way in, and the numerous crossbows and old muzzle-loading Cannons with their muzzles facing the fjord, are enough to make the Alliance captains feel uneasy.
Varian could only honestly choose to land on the Spear Island in the western part of Howling Fjord under the cover of Naxxramas, using it as a forward base, and then land on the western Chemiel Coast and Solov Coast. Finally, he asked the dwarf craftsmen to build a large elevator to transport the soldiers to the plateau area of Howling Fjord.
After the first landing was successful, Varian prepared to let Tirion Fordring lead the Scarlet Crusade of Lordaeron to land on the abandoned coast of Bloodstock east of Howling Fjord, and finally attack in a combined force and meet at Utgarde Keep in the center.
On the western front, when the Dreadnought Fortress was being built in Borean Tundra, it had already been infiltrated by the Alliance. Because in this life, Malygos had not yet publicly announced that he would stop mortals from using magic. Therefore, the Nexus area in the northwest of Borean Tundra, which is Malygos' lair, is not yet in a hostile state.
Duke couldn't find a reason to ask the Alliance to guard that direction, so he could only secretly detain an elite force near Lake Kumya in the middle of Borean Tundra, and split the Horde's forces into two. The main force followed Saurfang to the east to prepare for a head-on fight against the Vrykul. The Warsong Clan troops, who would sooner or later become the brain-dead roar, were sent to the southwest of Borean Tundra, pinned between the Alliance and Malygos' blue dragon army.
The orcs of the Warsong Clan, who had no idea that Malygos might cause trouble, landed in the western part of the Borean Tundra and began to build Warsong Hold, as well as a series of slaughterhouses, granaries, and other facilities named after Warsong.
Unlike the barren land with few prey, although the Borean Tundra is cold, there are plenty of prey. The Warsong Clan were overjoyed and praised the Alliance for its kindness, which was rare.
Duke had no idea what expression to use to face them.
Fortunately, the boss over there was Muradin, the dwarf prince who had no idea that Malygos might be unstable, and naturally faced the Horde with a calm expression.
After arranging everything, Duke calmly took the girls and a dwarf king into Archavon's treasury.
The huge Wintergrasp Fortress has been sealed for at least ten thousand years without any visitors.
The low- and medium-level elemental creatures wandering outside the fortress killed every intruder who tried to break in. In the hall where the door to the treasury was located, many large spiders and the corpses of the Vrykul could be seen. They were either directly frozen and turned into death sculptures, or burned to ashes, turned into residue, and then buried by the wind and snow.
As for the elemental creatures blocking the way, Duke's elemental messengers will naturally clean them up.
The structure of Archavon's vault is extremely simple. Apart from the entrance passage, the entire vault is structured like the Chinese character "up". At the beginning is a crossroad, then there is a straight and right turn intersection. At the end of each intersection is a giant guardian.
"Go! Accept your trials." Duke pointed his finger in the distance in a very impressive manner.
Onyxia, the mount ms. with the lowest status in theory, nodded to Duke and first lifted the ultimate transformation spell. Within the visual field, it took her less than two seconds to transform from a delicate countess into a huge black dragon.
Fortunately, the passage to the treasure house is extremely large and spacious, otherwise it would not be able to accommodate such a huge black dragon to roam around here.
The remaining elemental guards along the way were directly trampled to death by the black dragon mm.
Vashj glanced at Onyxia's dragon back, as if complaining about her rudeness, but she turned to Duke and smiled sweetly: "Great master, I am leaving too."
"Um."
She also transformed, turning back into a six-armed snake-tailed Naga. She swayed her waist, bent her bow and shot arrows to kill the monsters while heading towards where the Storm Watcher was.
Magni glanced at Sylvanas and blinked. He guessed that she still had something to say to Duke, so he didn't want to be a light bulb anymore.
"Well, I'm leaving too. Yes, if I die here, let... let Muradin inherit my throne." Perhaps he originally wanted Moira to inherit, but when the words came to his lips, he remembered that this useless and disappointing daughter actually gave birth to a baby for his mortal enemy, which made him lose face, so he finally said that Muradin should be the successor.
