Zhu Tian started by deceiving his father-in-law from the perspective of pirates.

They are the ones behind the destruction of our home.

"It's really troublesome. The blood elves in this fortress have all been infected with fel energy."

Chapter 156 First Encounter with Kael'thas, Probably Because I Could Wipe Out Your Team

These blood elves absorbed large amounts of fel magic, but unlike warlocks, they did not systematically cultivate it, so they were severely infected by fel energy.

"Lord Rhodes! You have some orcs under your command. I've heard you say that those orcs can also be healed."

"If, if Your Highness has indeed sided with the Burning Legion, then could you help my people?" Liadrin asked.

Rhodes is, after all, a demigod. If he can heal the fel orcs infected by fel energy, then he should be able to save the blood elves who are also infected by fel energy.

“That’s a good option,” Rod said.

When the time comes, I'll bring your blood elf race onto my chariot too! I can't help it, your race's girls are just too eye-catching.

“Lord Rhodes, you can do anything,” Pudding said with a playful wink.

"Thank you, Lord Rhodes. With your assurance, I feel much more at ease." Liadrin bowed to Rhodes, expressing her heartfelt gratitude.

As long as there is hope of saving our people, that's enough. We can discuss this with the Regent when we get back.

"We're getting there."

The three were soon brought before Kael'thas, the blood elf prince.

Kael'thas, the Blood Elf prince, or rather the current Blood Elf king, originally had golden hair and a handsome face, making him very dashing.

But now his appearance has become much more gloomy, and his originally blue eyes have turned into a ghostly green, a result of absorbing and practicing fel magic.

Three magical orbs floated above him. These three orbs were supposed to emanate the power of fire arcane magic, representing the power of the Sunstrider royal family.

The power of the eternal Sun King, but now these three orbs have become fel orbs, emanating an aura of fel energy.

"Your Highness, Prince Sunstrider." Liadrin knelt on one knee and bowed to Kael'thas.

After all, the other party was the supreme leader of the blood elves, and had been working tirelessly for his people.

They still enjoy a high reputation among the blood elves, provided that they have not actually sided with the Burning Legion.

“I am very pleased that the envoys from Silvermoon City have finally arrived. I have been waiting for you for many days.”

"Your envoys should have arrived months ago, Liadrin. Could you introduce the two friends you brought with you?" Kael'thas looked at the three people below and asked.

He recognized Liadrin; she was a high-ranking priest of Silverlight City who had lost her Holy Light power for some reason during the Third War, but now it seemed she had regained it.

He had never seen these two humans before, and one of them even had three eyes. Why would an envoy from Silvermoon City bring two humans with him?

"Your Highness, Regent Lorthema has been sending messengers to you for months, but without exception, all of them have disappeared."

It wasn't until recently, when the Dark Portal reopened and the world of Azeroth and Outland were reconnected, that we came to this world with the Horde.

"As for these two, they are now allies of our blood elf race, Mr. Rhodes and Ms. Brin," Liadrin said.

"Hmm! You just said you came with the Horde?" Kael'thas asked.

At this moment, His Highness the Prince looked very unwell; he, as the leader, was unaware that his people had joined the tribe.

As for the name Rod, he felt like he had heard it somewhere before, but he couldn't quite remember where. He must be some nobody!

“Yes, Your Highness, at the recommendation of the former Ranger-General Sylvanas, the Regent has decided to lead the Blood Elves to join the Horde,” Liadrin said.

“I am the king of the blood elves. Although I have not been formally crowned king, I am the supreme leader. You should have informed me of this,” Kael'thas said with great dissatisfaction.

So the Alliance abandoned us, and you joined the Horde?

The Horde once attacked Quel'Thalas, those savage orcs, tauren, trolls, and undead. And now, the blood elves have fallen so low as to be on their side.

Moreover, he, as the prince, was completely unaware that the entire clan had joined the tribe.

“Your Highness, the Regent sent me to inform you of this matter, but it is quite obvious.”

"The messenger didn't make it to you. I think some force is holding them back; they don't want you to know something," Liadrin said.

Liadrin is now quite certain that His Highness the Prince has practiced fel magic. Because he has regained the power of the Holy Light, she is still very sensitive to fel energy.

"What do you mean?"

“Your Highness, have you sided with the Burning Legion? I would like to inquire about this matter, as it is of utmost concern to the entire Blood Elf race,” Liadrin said.

Upon hearing this, Kael'thas's face darkened noticeably, becoming extremely ugly, even showing a hint of ferocity.

Joining the Burning Legion was a last resort. Illidan was not trustworthy. I had promised him a bottle of water from the Well of Eternity so that he could repair the Sunwell, but Illidan broke his promise.

Later, he was taught how to extract arcane energy from artifacts, magical items, or living beings, in order to appease him.

At this time, Kil'jaeden, one of the commanders of the Burning Legion, approached him and promised him many benefits, but Kael'thas did not initially believe him.

But Illidan bypassed himself, a prince of the blood elves, and recruited a large number of his people into his ranks, forming the Illidari Demon Hunter army.

When he came to seize Tempest Keep, he even secretly detained a large number of blood elf troops, ostensibly to carry out his grand plan, but Illidan never told him what the plan actually was.

At this point, he finally believed what a certain demon lord had told him, something Kil'jaeden had once told him.

Illidan was nothing but a traitor; he had once served the Legion, which is why he obtained powerful fel magic from them.

If Kael'thas were willing, he could teach the blood elves even more powerful fel magic, and even help them take revenge on the Lich King and kill the man who destroyed his homeland.

Ultimately, the Blood Elf prince accepted Kil'jaeden's offer of service and officially became a member of the Burning Legion.

Kil'jaeden promised him that as long as he opened a portal to the world of Azeroth, he could then proceed after successfully eliminating all resistance forces in Azeroth.

The entire planet could be entrusted to his management.

He stored a large number of Void Energy Crystals here in Voidstorm, intending to bring them back to Quel'Thalas in the future.

Using the power of the Sunwell, Kil'jaeden and the main force of the Burning Legion were summoned to Azeroth.

"Where did you hear this news?" Kael'thas asked with a grim expression.

"Is that even a question? Your Highness, look at the blood elves outside. They've all been infected by fel energy, and it's corrupting their minds."

Even you are the same; your eyes are burning with green light, and the flames burning on the magic orbs on your body have turned into fel energy,” Liadrin said.

Judging from the prince's expression, her last hope was shattered. The prince had indeed sided with the Burning Legion, with Azeroth's greatest enemy.

"Then I'll tell you, I've decided to lead the Blood Elves to join the Burning Legion, and we will prosper more than ever before." Kael'thas bluntly and openly admitted that he had joined the Burning Legion.

How could you do this, Your Highness!

"Although it was the Scourge that destroyed our homeland back then, the Scourge was acting under the orders of the Burning Legion." Liadrin said, looking at Kael'thas with a face full of resentment.

She couldn't accept, nor could she believe, that Prince Kael'thas, whom the blood elves loved so dearly and who had tirelessly worked for his people, would ultimately walk down a dark path.

Just then, someone patted him on the shoulder.

"Leave the rest to me! You're too tired, Liadrin, get some rest." Rhodes approached Kael'thas with a kind smile.

For some unknown reason, Liadrin fainted and collapsed into Brin's arms behind her.

"Who are you?" Kael'thas asked Rhodes.

"Well, if things had gone according to the normal procedure, we should have met a long time ago."

"After all, that idiot Kil'jaeden sent me to find you. My name is Rhodes." Rhodes kindly reminded the prince.

When he came over using his real name, he wanted to test whether the prince knew of his existence.

But it was clear that the other party had never paid any attention to him; the name Rod was meaningless to him.

You're something else, Azoton! How exactly did you describe Lao Tzu?

Am I really a weakling? At this moment, Rhodes' anger had reached its peak.

“Rhodes? I’ve never heard of that name before,” Kael’thas said.

“Well! It seems Kil’jaeden doesn’t really care about me, huh!” Rhodes shrugged and said.

"Who exactly are you? Why did Liadrin bring you here to see me?" Kael'thas asked.

Judging from the human's tone, he seemed to know Kil'jaeden.

"Liadrin brought me here, which is naturally an acknowledgment of my strength!"

"A tacit recognition of your strength, huh!" Kael'thas let out a contemptuous laugh.

"It's probably because I have absolute strength and can easily wipe you out, along with all your subordinates!"

After Rhodes finished speaking, he unleashed his Conqueror's Haki to its fullest extent, instantly enveloping the entire Storm Fortress.

I'm going to wipe you all out now, that's all.

Chapter 157 Rhodes solos Tempest Keep dungeon, brutally beating up the Blood Elf Prince.

A terrifying aura that surged into the sky instantly emanated from Rhodes, a mixture of dragon might, the might of a demigod of the wilderness, and Conqueror's Haki.

Throughout the entire Storm Fortress, all the blood elves and even some demons were affected by this wave of energy. However, those with simple Conqueror's Haki, high-level magic users, and powerful warriors and paladins could be immune to this attack.

But Rhodes' Conqueror's Haki is different from ordinary Conqueror's Haki. It is a high-level pressure generated by the fusion of the majesty of the Wilderness Demigod and the dragon's might of the dragon bloodline.

This is a pressure at the level of life itself. Ordinary mortal beings simply cannot stand up against Rhode's Conqueror's Haki.

Rhodes snapped his fingers, opening a small portal behind him that led to the outside of Stormhold.

"Breen! Help Liadrin to the back to rest for a while. I'll get this done quickly, probably in less than an hour," Rhodes said.

"Hey! Lord Rhodes, you'd better do your best! Pudding is waiting for your triumphant return." Pudding smiled playfully at Rhodes, then hoisted Liadrin onto her shoulder and passed directly through the portal.

Rhodes waved his hand and activated the Mirror Space skill, enveloping the entire Storm Fortress in his own mirror space.

"You, what kind of magic is this? You're not human, you can't possibly be human." The blood elf prince Kael'thas stared wide-eyed at Rhodes, saying incredulously.

This immense pressure, emanating from the depths of the soul and resembling that of a apex predator, was overwhelming.

Kael'thas even had a faint urge to kneel down and kneel at the feet of the man in front of him.

"Heh! How pathetic! A prince of the blood elves, you fail at everything you do. Your life is simply defined by two words: failure!"

"Your beloved woman has been taken from you, your country has been destroyed, yet you choose to side with the mastermind behind the destruction of your homeland. You are truly a complete traitor." Rhodes said, looking at Kael'thas with a mocking expression.

Under Rhodes's oppressive aura, over 90% of the blood elves in Tempest Keep had already fainted, their eyes rolling back in their heads.

Only a few highly skilled professionals were still able to stand, but they were in no better condition, as even standing was extremely difficult for them.
