Archmond suddenly stretched out his left hand and grabbed me hard into the palm of his hand, as if he had moved a little mouse to death.

The huge pain was unbearable, and I could even feel the fracture and dislocation of my bones.

Now I am going to be paralyzed all over, but obviously this is not my final treatment. I know he wants to crush me into a paste. But I still insist on closing my mouth and not saying a word. Yes, if I can do anything for everyone, it is to show unyielding and firmness in belief at this time. I stared at Archmond. Although my eyes were already difficult to open in pain, I still stared at him tightly, even if his eyes were squeezed out by him.

As long as he is using a little effort, I can become a fragment. But he didn't. Obviously, he didn't want me to die easily to do this, but just gave me punishment, maybe.

"Arsace, your performance exceeded my imagination! But I was not surprised." At this time, Archmond had returned to his original calmness. I don't know how he could still talk to me calmly, but the more this happens, the more I want to show a tough side. After all, I have been determined to fight Archmond to the end.

"Acmond! You can destroy our world, but you can't get our hearts at all. What you get after you kill us is also the achievement of nothingness, and you have lost everything here, your burning legion, your slaves from another world, and your troops loyal to you, you have nothing at all..."

I wanted to continue scolding, but Archmond didn't want me to continue, so he tried hard and accompanied by destructive magic. A severe pain swept into my brain again, and then there was no feeling below my head. Yes, that's fine, otherwise I would definitely die of the continuous stimulation of the severe pain. But this didn't last for too long, and soon my consciousness became blurred.

I knew I had talked about his pain, but the price was that I was going to die. But at the moment my consciousness disappeared, my will seemed to have recovered from waking up, and then the severe pain stinged myself again.

The pain that has been repeated over and over made me realize the reality that my body can no longer support my life, and Archmond forced me to resurrect, making me feel endless pain.

"Silly and arrogant human! I now tell you what consequences will be if a mortal will have after offending God."

"Akmond!" I tried my best to spit out a few words, but I could only say these. I really wanted to complete my last resistance or scold him, but now I couldn't seem to be able to do it. Because the pain was enough to make me unable to speak, and when my consciousness was blurred again and again, I had no strength to continue to say what I wanted to say.

But even so, Archmond still did not let me go, but still held it in his palm and walked towards the tall world tree. Yes, the world tree, the last hope that Malfurion said, I don’t know what hope he said, but to be honest, I no longer have hope. Moreover, after many cycles of reincarnation, I only want to have a liberation, or find a place alone to be completely buried in peace.

"Can't you give me a break?" Perhaps after several life and death, I became less sharp, but I replied to Archmond in a relatively calm manner. He was not so sharp as to the grammar that I became calm, and he was also not so sharp, and he was very calm, even in a mocking tone.

"I thought you would be able to persist more than Neozu..." Archmond said a name, which made me think of something. Yes, he was said to have been captured by Kiljadan before becoming the Lich King, and then experienced the feeling of life being worse than death. Perhaps this is the method. "I will free you, but I will not be now." Archmond said and restored some of my destroyed bodies, but I still couldn't sense the perception below my neck, as if my body and spirit wanted to be separated, but in this way, I would not be confused due to severe pain.

In this way, I was held in his palm and moved towards the world tree.

If we look back now, we seem to be acquaintances like a villain and a giant walking and chatting. This also makes other defenders wonder. Of course, it is not only us who are inexplicably the most, but they are not resisting. Similarly, Archmond did not continue to release magic to attack anyone, even if it is very close to him.

"I hope it won't be too long..." I looked at everyone below without any movement, and I didn't know whether it was good or bad, and maybe the people below didn't know, but since this is the case, at least I avoided unnecessary sacrifices. Anyway, I'm going to die, so there is no need to care about these difficult things, just like the understanding of the final outcome. "We really lost."

"You have lost a long time ago. When I came to your world, or when you were determined to fight the Burning Legion, I had already won, so I wouldn't let you die, or I wouldn't let you live until now."

"I do not understand"

Yes, what Archmond said made me confused. But one thing I was very sure of is that it was not an accident that I could survive until now against the Burning Legion. And Mavie also said similar things: Archmond is not necessarily willing to let me die.

"You will understand then."

Is there anything else? But Archmond obviously didn't want to explain. But I didn't delve into it, because everything about to appear in front of me shocked me.

Archmond continued to advance and had reached the front of the Night Elf Formation, which was within the attack range of their bows and arrows and other stone weapons. However, I found that there was no night elves garrison in the Night Elf’s position, which made me disappointed. Yes, Malfurion said there was a way to defeat Archmond, but now everything is like a lie... We are giving, and the Night Elf has no sacrifice at all, and are even using the time we have exchanged for resistance to transfer themselves and escape from the battlefield.

What other explanation can I explain? I feel even more discouraged and angry about it. Archmond saw my thoughts clearly.

"I think I can answer your first question?"

"What?" I turned my mind to Archmond. Archmond's words brought my thoughts back to the present. Yes, I seemed to have overlooked something, such as the question I asked Archmond at the beginning.

"You said you can't get your heart, Alsace, then tell me what it is like to get your heart? Do you say Jaina? Or your father-son relationship, and other friendships?"

"Of course, what else can it be?"

I looked at Archmond's question in confusion. Could it be that he had other insights? He shook his head and said:

"That's because you're not 30 now. You haven't experienced any changes in the years."

“The years change?”

"Yes!" Archmond said and cast a spell at me. Soon I arrived in another environment. What I could see was that this was a strange place, or a kind of illusion, but this illusion was very strange. Because some high-tech here are things I have never seen before, it is another world, and here, there are many intelligent devices and cities full of magic, which reminded me of Dalaran. But in Azeroth, not every city is as brilliant as Dalaran, and this brilliance also contains the refreshing soft and sacred light.

I saw the residents here, similar to the creatures of Ereda, but compared to the abominable demons, they smiled and looked very friendly. Both young and old, they lived a very comfortable and peaceful life. But there was one person in addition to Archmond beside me, who was still calm and expressionless when he saw this scene. Yes, he also walked into the illusion here and introduced all this to me.

"This is my hometown Argus." Archmond appeared in our illusion at this moment, as big as me, in our illusion, explaining their past. "We, Ereda, were mortals who lived in a world like you, and lived in a peaceful and unified kingdom. When I was younger than you, I was the best paladin, better than any of you, and were infinitely favored by the holy light, and forever." He pointed to a place, similar to

As a palace, we saw this scene when we went in. A place similar to a high court of parliament, two top managers were awarding some honors to a younger Ereda. It was very similar to the honor of our promotion to the Paladin. But it was obviously even more grand. I could see that the calmness on his calm and unremitting face was exactly the same as Archmond beside me. I obviously saw the person who gave the award, but I didn't dare to confirm it.

"Is it you? And Kiljaden?"

"Yes, my brother Kiljaden, he gave me the same status as him, that is, to jointly control the entire Ereda."

I looked at Kilgardan's excited and excited expression at the ceremony. I was sure that his relationship with Archmond was very deep at that time, and it might not be the case. If an older brother handed over some great responsibilities to his younger brother, it would obviously mean something... This obviously transcends brother's feelings.

"It's a pity that no one would have thought you would part ways so much today."

I sighed for him, yes, who would have thought they would be what they are today, but Archmond felt that I had no capital to be proud of him.

"At least our friendly relationship lasted for hundreds of thousands of years. Our Arida's life cycle is very long, even much longer than the night elves." As he said, the picture changed and became something else. Archmond and his brothers jointly govern the world and made our Arida's development flourish.

The picture records a lot, and the content is about their daily life. These must be the memories of Archmond's heart, those who are peaceful with Kiljadan and other Erida. Archmond was obviously not his current expression at that time. Although he mostly showed a calm look, he had richer feelings in his actions. Especially in a confrontational game revealed in the fantasy. Archmond also showed stronger combat skills and abilities than Kiljadan. And the excitement Kiljadan showed after seeing himself and losing to his brothers shows that their relationship was so close, and that time, Archmond did show an excited expression.

However, as Archmond realized that his thinking had gone astray, he immediately deleted the scenes that he did not want to recall and returned to the topic:

"We have powerful power of holy light and magic, superb technology and profound culture. As for me, I am even the best in all aspects. The spacecraft I invented can travel between the stars. We have opened up wild colonies for us. Of course, we believe in peace and teach some indigenous peoples of other planets to be civilized."

"But why do you look like this?" I asked calmly. Yes, now I no longer regard him as an enemy, but ask in a way similar to a friend. He also tried his best to answer my questions.

"My deep research in politics, economy, culture, technology and other aspects has made me realize the narrowness and short-sightedness of other consciousnesses, and also realized that the harm revealed when opinions are different and even become irreconcilable is very huge. I think that only by focusing will on a person with strong will and power is the best choice. And the same person knows this way is not only me, but also Sargeras, who is attracted by our technology. He noticed our world."

"So he invaded your world and transformed you into this."

"No! He did not invade us. When he appeared in front of us, we were very clear that it was impossible to compete with that guy with our own strength. So we chose to compromise and surrender to him, and in return for being loyal to him, he also gave us more powerful magic and power to help him conquer creatures in one world after another as his slaves. Of course, as our contributions became greater, we had more rights. Until Kiljadan and I, with their respective strength and prestige, completely suppressed other demon lords to become Sargeras' right-hand men, Lord Sargeras still showed wireless trust in us."

As the picture progressed, Archmond said, and at this time, the picture returned to the scene of Archmond and Kiljadan invading one world after another. Here I could feel the difference between him and Kiljadan when invading other worlds. Yes, Archmond is very much like an ambitious submissor like our world, while Kiljadan is more like a torture killer. But even if he can show his kind side, I still remember that he deliberately skipped me a fact:

"I really didn't expect you to be so cowardly and bow down to a powerful enemy. Do you have no courage to fight against Sargeras?"

"Maybe you would think so, but the reason why I surrendered to Sargeras without hesitation is not because I did not have the courage to fight him, but because his thoughts were exactly the same as mine. The world should have surrendered to the concentrated will, otherwise the world would be in chaos, and the power and skills he mastered were beyond my reach. He was also keen to tell me, so I concluded that he was the most appropriate group of the will."

"But he died, he died in the hands of us humans."

"Yes, his body disappeared, so the Burning Legion needed a person to replace him, an existence as powerful as him, even stronger than him."

"Kiljaden thought that way? I mean, his thoughts are exactly the same as you, so he thought it was his turn to concentrate his will."

"It's not entirely true. He surrendered because he feared the powerful power of Sargeras. If he met a leader who was stronger than Sargeras, he would surrender. Although he wanted to be the highest will, he lacked courage and was not suitable to lead the entire legion." Archmond was very angry when he said this. Obviously, the power struggle after Sargeras's death was the fuse of his conflict with Kiljaden, perhaps, but I also ignored a detail.

"Then there is another person, the leader except you two. Why didn't he appear in your Burning Legion?"

"He is the leader of the Draenei people, Virgin, who, as his brother, betrayed us and led some people who were unwilling to surrender to Sargeras to leave this world. He wandered far away to avoid the tracking of the Burning Legion, or avoid the tracking of Kilgardan..." Archmond said as he turned to Virgin, where the leader of the Draenei and Kilgardan broke. It can be seen that Kilgardan was very disappointed. "Until Kilgardan discovered them in the world of Draenei, then what you realized, the orcs invaded Draenei and then invaded your world." Archmond said calmly, as if he had no feelings for this Virgin, or that he had no touch on Virgin's "betrayal". Obviously he just thought that Virgin had taken the path of his beliefs, which was a world of difference compared to the angry Kilgardan.

After saying that, the scene returned to Drano, where I saw how Kiljadan instigated Gul'dan to betray and how to lead the orcs to the violent... But soon this illusion disappeared and returned to reality, and reality was that Archmond had already walked under the World Tree.

Yes, I don't know what's going on outside at all, but I'm sure that Archmond did not continue to attack anyone, and the night elves did not make any resistance. The position was empty.

Archmond saw my disappointment and couldn't help but continue to sarcastically sarcasticize me in other ways.

"By the way, I can tell a secret. It is the origin of your human beings: your ancestors were originally ancient stone dwarves, and they were cursed by the ancient gods sealed here. They slowly became like this. But obviously you don't like these your creators, and even their disgust for him is more than our Burning Legion."

"Even if this is true, there is no need for you to attack me again." I was numb to hear this. Yes, if the most powerful mortal armed forces today, that is, the night elves are already afraid of Archmond's terrifying power, then I will inspire morale, who can I give you... Wait, I seem to have thought of something. Who has a stronger power? The Ancient God? Yes, right. So I started to motivate Archmond to try to warn Archmond a reality, or a reason to give up our world. "It is said that the Ancient God is very powerful, even stronger than your leader Sargeras, and they will be sealed in our world. If you think after they are released, can you deal with it?"

"You know a lot, but in fact, there are not one ancient gods, but five. If the five ancient gods are together, Lord Sargeras will obviously be difficult to fight, but it is still no problem to deal with one or two."

"You guys have lost Sargeras now, are you still expecting you to fight any of them?"

I threatened Archmond. Although I knew very little about the ancient gods, I was sure that with Archmond's strength to fight against the ancient gods, there was no difference between me and my naked hand and fighting a dragon with a combat experience.

"Of course not, but it will be fine in a while."

"I don't understand." I said without thinking, but after looking at the big tree, I seemed to understand something. It turned out that he came here not to carve his name on the tree, but to get it completely and the power behind it.

"The Tree of the World is not just a big tree or the spiritual pillar of the night elves, but there is infinite power hidden below. If I can get him, I will have the power of Sargeras and even become an existence beyond him. I give up everything, and even Kiljadan and I turn against each other, because of it. Whoever gets its power will become an existence beyond God, and no one can stop me now."

As Archmond said, his right hand released a strong spell to penetrate the tree of the world. He watched it gradually dry up and then wither. The power emitted by Archmond proved that he was right. He was absorbing his power, and it was an extremely powerful force. Yes, I could feel that he was stronger, and it was even more unimaginable. He was immersed in it and enjoying the more powerful power he had increased.

"Akmond, you really think that after you get the power of the World Tree, you can fight against the ancient gods. Perhaps the World Tree is the seal that seals the ancient gods. If five of them appear at the same time, you will be dead." Perhaps out of jealousy, or reason or faith, I once again "remind" Archmond. But he explained to me another one, yes, this surprised me very much.

"Arsace, do you know why I give you a chance again and again?"

"Do you want me to help you fight against the ancient god!"

My statement caused him to laugh, yes, I was overestimating myself. In fact, Archmond seemed to be interested in me not my insignificant power, and...

"It's your spirit, very similar to my teenage years," Archmond explained. "If I were you, I would still try my best to stop my current behavior, so I want to see how much mental power you can show to prevent me from getting the power of your world."

I was very surprised to hear this. I didn't expect that he was still thinking about how to play with me at this time. Yes, maybe my personality and he found some of his beautiful memories... Of course, there are other possibilities, which is to make an assumption. If he goes back to that past and resists Sargeras, he will look like he will? Yes, he fantasized me as himself, and what he should look like after fighting against an invincible enemy in a difficult situation. Perhaps this is also a very heavy knot in his heart that presses him hard... This kind of guess is really funny, but I still want to confirm it.

"Acmond, then do you regret not easily, regret not being able to go back to the past, and back to the days before? If you had the same personality as me at that time, did you feel frustrated for abandoning the justice of your own Holy Light, or did you treat your partners and your people as pure tools for use at the beginning?"

My words made Archmond a little angry, and even the anger he showed. This anger surpassed the hilt of my sword that I just smashed his face with the hilt. The huge tremor made the surrounding stones sank, and if I were on the ground, it would definitely be empty. Of course, maybe he was calm and had not fully grasped the new power, but I was right and I said it to his heart.

"You are just a mortal! A mortal who has only lived for more than 20 years, you have never experienced the changes of vicissitudes of life, and you will not experience the changes and betrayal of human nature..."

Archmond responded eagerly to my judgment and turned his head to continue to absorb the power of the World Tree, but I didn't think so. I just wanted an answer to the question.

"No, I just asked you, are you going to be the last one?"

My words made Archmond give up on absorbing power and turn to look at me. In response, Archmond fell into deep thought again. After a while, he gave me an answer that made me think:

"I can't look back anymore, my child. Once I have done such a thing, I can't look back."

After Archmond finished speaking, he ignored me and turned to his main topic, which is to absorb the power of the World Tree. On the other hand, what he realized through this sentence, such as what he said cannot look back, which makes me remember what he remembered. Perhaps it was the future I knew, the future after I gradually became the Lich King, and after I did all kinds of unreasonable things, maybe at that time I could feel how heavy the meaning of Archmond's words, cannot look back. Now that I think about it, I can go to this day and not repeat the mistakes of Archmond, it was already the favor of God...

Wait, at this moment, I also realized something, such as some memories, that is what should happen at this moment. Archmond World Tree. Yes, this will be Archmond's end. The hope of defeating Archmond in the end is the World Tree, when he absorbs the power of the World Tree.

Of course I have to hide this consciousness, but fortunately, Archmond has been immersed in the power of absorbing the world tree and doesn't care about me at all.

Although I don't have to worry about Archmond discovering my consciousness, I am still confused about what method the night elves can use to destroy Archmond. Moreover, Archmond's power is getting stronger and stronger. There is no power to compete with him.

I thought about this, and at this moment, I discovered that a soul power seemed to have joined it. I don’t know what this is, it seems to be a single soul-shaped thing, a bit similar to a creature in the jade dream.

They also got involved in the power and were absorbed by Archmond. I was surprised that with Archmond's prudence and strength, I didn't find anything like that. Of course, I wouldn't remind him to go.

With the absorption of power, Archmond also became huge. I was even submerged by his palms and could not see everything at all. But when my sight was submerged, I found more and more of such souls drifting towards Archmond, and I was even more convinced that Archmond's end was today. Yes, Malfurion and the Night Elf wanted to use this method to defeat Archmond. At this dusk, the sunset was about to fall.

My eyes drowned in his palm, but soon accompanied by the sound of a trumpet looming in the distance. A huge explosion followed. After the increasingly hot palm and Archmond's painful cry, I realized that Malfurion's plan was successful. He let go of his palms and looked at me in confusion and anger, wanting me to give him an explanation, or to give him a way to save him.

And I will only tell him a cruel reality at this time:

"Do you know how Sargeras was defeated by Kardag?" I smiled proudly. Yes, although I'm not sure, it's probably the reason. "That's that he shouldn't have a meaningless relationship with humans, and don't say anything nonsense to cover your defense."

I smiled proudly, yes, as if he was as innocent as a deceived human, and on the other hand I smiled maliciously like a demon.

Yes, I know what the result will be. After realizing my despicableness, the angry Archmond tried his best to twist me with his palm, but perhaps God did not give him that long time. His body kept exploding, and when his fingers were about to come into contact with me, a huge thing happened with his body, and he also turned into powder.

Although I was not crushed by him, I was also overwhelmed by its huge explosion. The power released by Archmond also caused an explosion around him. The huge force instantly ignited the entire tree of the world and caused a huge explosion, which affected the entire hill and the surrounding area for more than ten kilometers. The trees within this also instantly turned into ashes. The smoke and dust raised by the explosion also spread wider, and could even include the entire Haigal region.

Although there was a force that seemed to be protecting me from the impact of this force, I fell freely without the support of Archmond's palm. As Archmond's power gradually retreated on me, the end of my death could not be avoided. But this was no longer important. I successfully held Archmond and won precious time to defeat him, which means that I defeated the God who wanted to destroy us in my way, which was far enough for me...
Chapter completed!
