Chapter 289

I will reincarnate them with Impure World Reincarnation, then talk to them, my goal is also to protect Azeroth." Luode said.

After being reincarnated with Impure World Reincarnation, I can control them, even without chakra power, I cannot escape my control.

Those willing to accept my recruitment, Luode will not control them with Impure World Reincarnation; if unwilling, I will directly seal them.

When needed, just release these guys to use, frankly speaking, with Luode's current strength.

Actually, these ordinary combat forces of Azeroth, no matter how many come, are really not useful.

The combat power of these death knights is only slightly stronger than ordinary adventurers.

The strength is limited, not said to reach the level of one person destroying a city or one person destroying a village.

Saying they work as subordinates is just to add some combat power to Sylvanas's new recruits.

Among the new recruits, although there are all professions, most are ordinary professionals.

Only some dark rangers and Sylvanas's dreadguard count as high-end combat power; death knights can definitely greatly enhance the new recruits' combat power.

After these death knights are resurrected, yes, besides being able to use their former power.

Their own death knight skills will not be lost; at that time, a batch of alternative death knights will appear.

Let them join the Alliance and Horde respectively, which is just cheap for others; I will take the death knight class for myself.

"You say it, great demigod.

The number of death knights here is over three thousand, among which my Naxxramas fortress has over one thousand, led by the Four Horsemen.

In the Acherus fortress of the Blackfang Knights, the number of death knights is over two thousand five hundred.

All are led by Highlord Darion Mograine, in the Acherus fortress, eighty percent of the troops are death knights, plus some ghouls, abominations, liches.

Kel'Thuzad clearly felt that this resurrection should be controlled by this great demigod, but this is also good, at least I will gain one hundred percent trust.

Following that guy Arthas, there is completely no future at all! "By the way, Kel'Thuzad, I remember the old Naxxramas fortress was once captured, now all the leaders inside are former ones?" Luode asked.

For this matter, Luode is actually very curious, the 60s Naxxramas dungeon.

And the 80s Naxxramas dungeon have basically no difference, all boss leader mechanisms are basically consistent.

"At that time, the Alliance and Horde elite forces, plus the Silver Hand Knights, indeed launched a decapitation strike on Naxxramas, but mainly targeted me.

Also, one of the Four Horsemen, the old Mograine, Naxxramas as a whole was not severely destroyed.

Now I have resurrected, as for the old Mograine of the Four Horsemen, he has been replaced by Rivendare." Kel'Thuzad said.

Naxxramas fortress, after all, is the flagship floating city of the Scourge, its military strength is still strong.

With less than a hundred elite troops, wanting to conquer it is still difficult.

Luode nodded, then summoned his own subordinates, letting these subordinates go capture some kobolds, murlocs, gnolls and other lowly creatures.

This time, the group for Impure World Reincarnation is still very large, and announced to everyone that Kel'Thuzad carried the Naxxramas fortress.

Also, the Acherus fortress of the Blackfang Knights, all were freed from the Lich King's control by me, now joined the new recruits' forces.

Two days later, Luode gathered all the sacrifices, then mobilized his chakra power, launched a large-scale Impure World Reincarnation.

All death knights, plus some liches, necromancers, and other humanoid beings underwent Impure World Reincarnation, numbering over ten thousand.

As for the remaining ghouls, abominations, gargoyles, spiders, frost wyrms, Luode did not perform Impure World Reincarnation on them.

These creatures belong to war weapons type, gargoyles are basically magical constructs, while ghouls and abominations are just assembled from ordinary civilian corpses.

As for frost wyrms, Luode is not sure whether these frost wyrms can be resurrected by these lowly sacrifices.

After all, these frost wyrms, when alive, were all buried blue dragons of Lordaeron.

"My fellow beings, look at your new bodies now, the power of life and death are fused together, and you possess self-awareness.

You can also taste food, breathe fresh air, look at this body, infinite stamina, immortal body, this is what we once pursued.

This is the most perfect, we have already freed ourselves from the Lich King's control.

Now we will join the new recruits led by Sylvanas, together to serve the great demigod Luode." Kel'Thuzad stood before a large group of liches and necromancers, speaking passionately.

These people have been resurrected, they are basically all humans, mostly former members of the Cult of the Damned.

When alive, they joined the Scourge due to various interests, the temptation of immortality, now they have a better choice, a more perfect immortal body.

Anyway, working for the Lich King is work, working for the new boss is also work, and the new boss looks stronger, more generous, why not choose?

"I am willing to serve you, great demigod." Lord Kaltraz said.

"We will serve you, great demigod." Duchess Blanchemure said.

"Thank you for granting us new life!" Sir Serriyek.

"We will become your sword." Baron Rivendare said.

The Four Horsemen, under Kel'Thuzad's persuasion, first joined Luode's camp, after all, now it's much better than working for the Lich King.

Well, looks like my pirate world's Four Horsemen are not yet assembled! The official Four Horsemen of Azeroth this side are assembled.

However, I must say, these Four Horsemen's combat power is still strong, each is a hero-level existence.

"I accept your loyalty, and grant you new life, from now on you will reside in Naxxramas fortress, continue to follow Kel'Thuzad's orders."

The remaining some instructors Rasuvios, Gothik the Harvester, the dirty Salramm, the plaguebringer Novos, these figures in Naxxramas.

Basically all, under Kel'Thuzad's leadership, pledged loyalty to Luode, as for other non-humanoid beings, they continue to be kept in undead state. Acherus Blackfang Knights, then retained a wait-and-see attitude, some even had the idea of returning to their original forces.

However, Luode and Kel'Thuzad quickly broke their fantasy, although now you look no different from the living.

But essentially you are still undead beings, in this world, only the new recruits can accept you.

"Your families, former companions, close comrades-in-arms, even lovers, do you think you will never age, never die.

Possess infinite stamina, and possess great strength? Give up that boring fantasy!

This is impossible, now your task is only one.

That is to destroy the Lich King Arthas, completely eradicate the threat of the undead scourge, then become guardians, forever protecting Azeroth." Luode loudly said.

The group that followed Kel'Thuzad over, Luode secretly had Bulin help, washing their memories a bit.

This part of death knights, now remember, they received the Lich King's order to come invade the Undercity, capture this new type of undead being.

As a result, the power of the great demigod completely subdued them, leaving them no chance to resist.

Darián Mográini sighed; his body now felt almost the same as when he was alive, and he could still wield some of the holy light power he had in life.

Yet the power of the death knight remained, undiminished, and though they now possessed undead bodies that looked little different from the living, a fundamental change had taken place.

They could no longer return to the Silver Hand Knights, and others found themselves in much the same situation.

Their own races would no longer accept them; the only ones who would were these newly risen beings.

Of course, many death knights had wished to choose another path — to simply slip into the peace of death and die outright.

But Luode quickly shattered their illusion, and through Kel'Thuzad, and by means of the previously summoned Uther, he showed these death knights the world of the dead.

"You may not know this, but you assume that death brings peace.

In truth, it is not so; I tell you, the world of death is another realm entirely.

There, you will continue a kind of existence, but the world of the dead is not fair, and you will not find peace.

There lie the Ascendant Bastion, Maldraxxus, Ardenweald, Revendreth, Bastion, and Maldraxxus.

In that world, all your sins will be judged, or you will go to the Ascendant Bastion, have your memories of life erased, and become an Ascended.

Or you will go to Maldraxxus, the warriors' resting place, where you will wage eternal war without cease.

As for Ardenweald, it is the domain of the noble wild demigod, and ordinary souls have no right to go there.

Revendreth is where the guilty are judged, and there you will endure all manner of punishments.

The souls of the weak, upon entering that world, will have their mental energy drained, living as slaves do.

And then there is the most terrifying place, the Maw, where irredeemable souls are sent; the Maw is ruled by a mighty being called the Jailer Zovaal.

He seeks to overturn the laws of the entire world, to overturn the realms of life and death; the Lich King's Helm of Domination and his Frostmourne runeblade were both forged by Zovaal.

And you, you are the secret weapon I have prepared to face him — Uther understands this perfectly." Luode turned his head toward the Uther he had specially summoned.

Since Uther was resurrected, Luode has used his Soul-Soul Fruit ability to restore his memories.

Uther also came to understand certain things, such as the fact that the Lich King Arthas actually gained the power of the Shadowlands' Jailer, which enabled him to overthrow his nation.

Perhaps my words as a wild demigod cannot convince these souls, but the righteous Uther certainly can.

"Uther, is the world after death truly like this? Did the Lich King truly use the power of the Shadowlands' Jailer? Must we souls truly accept judgment?" Darián Mográini asked.

If the world of death is truly so, then better not to go at all!

"Luode the demigod did not lie; that world is indeed a place of extreme cruelty.

Even I myself must endure all kinds of trials before I can have my memories erased and become an Ascended.

My memories have even become confused, yet even so I still remember one thing: that I must take revenge on Arthas."

The order of the Shadowlands contains many loopholes; this is not a lie — good people do not necessarily reap good rewards, nor do the wicked necessarily suffer punishment.

And that Jailer did indeed bestow upon the Lich King Arthas the power of the Shadowlands and the power of the Maw.

"If so, great Luode the demigod, we willingly accept your recruitment; we shall become your warriors.

We will destroy the Lich King Arthas, and then protect the world of Azeroth." Led by Darián Mográini, the death knights had no further hesitation.

They planted their runeblades before them, dropped to one knee, and swore fealty to Luode.

"Thank you, great demigod lord, for giving me new life, for giving me the chance to take revenge on that wicked disciple." Uther knelt before Luode and said.

"No need for thanks; from today on, you will remain in the world of the living.

Do not return to the Shadowlands again; you will guard the safety of Azeroth, though your primary task is to eradicate the Lich King Arthas." Luode spoke.

Now Arthas is such a minor figure that I need not even lift a hand myself — in the past, I was simply a crushing force in battle.

And many under my command long to strike Arthas down with their own hands; since that is so, let them have their revenge.

"Holy Light Messenger Uther lord, this sword was once my father's weapon in life, and though I now wield holy light power, I cannot evolve it.

Moreover, I still possess death knight power, but you are different — you have perfectly harmonized with the power of the Holy Light; I believe you can purify this weapon." Darián Mográini drew his Fallen Ashbringer and handed it to Uther.

This legendary weapon can only be wielded by this Holy Light Messenger, Uther lord. (End of chapter)
