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

Standing before Arthas was an enormous lich, clad in tattered robes; this was none other than Kel'Thuzad, the second-in-command of the Legion and Arthas's chief strategist.

"Yes, great Lich King, this resurrection is extremely powerful. Their resurrection is not in the undead state, zombies, skeletons or ghosts or anything like that, but rather they become something similar to a living person."

Their eyes are slightly different from those of living people, but they cannot feel any pain, yet they can taste food and smell its aroma.

And most importantly, they possessed a very strange immortality, along with limitless stamina and energy. As Kel'Thuzad spoke, even the will-o'-the-wisp in his eyes flickered.

This resurrection is far more perfect than his current state. The reason he came to Northrend in the first place was to offer his loyalty to the Lich King.

Besides the immense power promised by the other party, there is also a kind of immortality, which can transform one into an undead state, and the kind of immortality that maintains a human form.

There's also immortality and unlimited energy; there's simply no comparison between the two sides, and the more they compare, the angrier they get.

If I hadn't been defeated not long ago and only recently resurrected using the Lich King's Box, I would still be in Icecrown Glacier, suppressed by the Lich King's Crown of Domination.

Now Kel'Thuzad wished he could go and serve this demigod instead of some Lich King.

This kind of resurrection, immortality, is not just something one pursues, but something that is also the pursuit of the vast majority of undead from natural disasters.

Arthas gripped his Frostmourne tightly, his eyes gleaming with a blue light.

If this new type of undead resurrection spell is really as Kel'Thuzad said, then it is a huge threat to the Scourge!

However, as long as the Crown of Domination is in his hands, all the undead will obey his orders, and they will be unable to resist.

Kel'Thuzad could sense that many liches were complaining from within the Crown of Domination; these liches also desired this perfect resurrection.

Indeed, in the eyes of these liches, this was the perfect resurrection, freeing them from worries about food while still being able to enjoy it.

And you won't feel any pain. This is simply the most perfect body, far more perfect than a living person.

But isn't this also an opportunity for the Scourge? If they could obtain this spell to resurrect the undead.

If used against the entire Scourge, his undead army would utterly destroy the world, fulfilling his long-held dream.

"Kel'Thuzad, don't worry. This new type of undead will join the Scourge sooner or later. I assure all you liches that you will also transform into this undead form, and you will be even more perfect than you are now." Arthas rose from his Frozen Throne, his tattered black cloak floating behind him.

Below him, countless undead armies began to roar, their eyes blazing with blue ghostly fire; the Scourge had been fully resurrected.

"The Lich King. It is said that this new type of necromancy was invented by a wild demigod of Azeroth. The reason he was able to remain alive was likely because he used life energy."

"This reminds me of a rumor." Kel'Thuzad approached Arthas and said meaningfully.

"Oh! What rumor have you remembered? Tell me!"

"Great Lich King, do you still remember the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse in the Scourge?"

Old Mograine once used a crystal with immense shadow power, which several paladins transformed into a powerful Holy Light Crystal through some kind of conversion ritual.

This Holy Light Crystal is extremely powerful; after being transformed from its shadow state, it possesses unimaginable Holy Light power.

Using this Holy Crystal, Alexandro Mograine forged the incredibly powerful artifact, Ashbringer.

After he killed the Corruption, Ashbringer also fell into corruption and transformed into a Death Knight weapon, equally powerful.

As we all know, the opposite of shadow is holy light, and the opposite of death is life. This demigod of the wilderness may well have grasped this.

"That's why I've mastered this power of life and death, turning the dead into a different kind of living being," Kel'Thuzad said slowly.

The ultimate form of holy light is shadow, and the ultimate form of shadow is holy light. Then, the ultimate form of life is death, and the ultimate form of death is life?

None of them would have dared to think this way before, but now, this demigod of the wilderness, the demigod who controls the life force, seems to have given them an answer.

"If that's the case, then why don't the other wilderness demigods have mastered this spell?"

Also, I don't think I've ever heard of this Azure Dragon Wilderness demigod before. When I was a prince in Lordaeron, I never heard of him. What is his background?

Is it really as Kel'Thuzad said, that the ultimate form of death is life?

This is simply too absurd! However, given the incident with the Holy Light Crystal Ashbringer, he dared not deny this conjecture. (Actually, this statement is correct; the undead in the Shadowlands maintain a state of life.)

During this period of deep sleep, he kept hearing a voice in his mind bewitching him, even taking his soul to a very strange place.

The other world showed him some different things, some very advanced technology, and some novel architecture.

But that voice, that damned man who called himself the warden, actually wanted him to submit! How could that be?

He is the Lich King; he will no longer submit to anyone, and no one can restrain him.

"This Wilderness Demigod appeared suddenly about two years ago. At first, he was inconspicuous and was just an Alliance warlock."

Then, for some unknown reason, this person actually mastered a power to travel between worlds. He seemed to have connected to another world and brought an incredibly powerful creature from that world, which intimidated the entire Horde at the gates of Orgrimmar.

Then a miracle happened: he inexplicably became a demigod of the wilderness, and the most powerful one at that.

He then joined a very powerful force and created a new type of floating city, which greatly increased the tribe's strength.

About a year ago, this powerful Wilderness demigod led the Horde and Alliance armies in an invasion of Outland, displaying unparalleled power and defeating Illidan.

Throughout the year, news of the demigod spread throughout the world of Azeroth; this demigod was truly a prominent figure.

It is said that even the Night Elves acknowledge him as the most powerful demigod of the wilderness. Kel'Thuzad explained Rhodes' origins to Arthas.

As for why this Wilderness demigod could control such a miraculous resurrection spell while other Wilderness demigods could not, Kel'Thuzad truly had no idea.

"Things are getting more and more interesting. Get our floating fortress ready. I'm taking the Black Peak Knights there. I want to meet this Wilderness demigod in person," Arthas said, sheathing Frostwitch.

"What great Lich King? Are you sure? You want to meet this demigod in person? Forgive my bluntness, but I'm afraid that's not appropriate."

"This demigod of the wilderness currently resides in Undercity, which is the base of the Forsaken, or rather, the newly born undead. The new undead are quite powerful now, so it might not be wise for you to take only the Black Knights there," Kel'Thuzad said tactfully.

But what he really wanted to say was, "Don't you dare rush off to your death! This Wilderness Demigod displayed power that was absolutely top-tier for a demigod during the Outer Realms War!"

And you, the great Lich King, are only at the level of a demigod; you are not even the strongest on this land of Northrend.

Your current combat power is due to two pieces of equipment: Frostmourne and Crown of the Overlord. As for your own strength, to put it bluntly...

There are many people who don't take you seriously at all, such as the Titan Guardians, the five-colored dragons, or even a certain ancient evil god.

The Lich King isn't even the top dog on this continent of Northrend, so please don't humiliate yourself!

This demigod is not someone you can fool!

"He only defeated the Demon Hunter Illidan. I defeated him before, and I wasn't the Lich King then. I appeared with the Crown of Domination, and all the undead would obey my commands. I could control his new undead," Arthas said with a cold snort.

Back when he was the strongest Death Knight, he clashed with Illidan, and the Demon Hunter suffered a crushing defeat at his hands.

Now that he has obtained the Lich King's immense power and has slumbered for five years, completely mastering this power, Arthas is very confident that he can control these new undead creatures.

With the immense power brought by the Crown of Domination.

"I still stand by my opinion: the great Lich King should first consolidate the power of Northrend and transform all the dead blue dragons into frost dragons."

"Then let us convert all our newly discovered ancient Vrykul into undead and add them to your army to strengthen us, and then we'll figure out a way to plot this new resurrection spell," Kel'Thuzad said.

To obtain this new type of resurrection spell, we don't necessarily need to find this demigod of the wilderness. We just need to find a way to capture some of these specially resurrected, newly born undead.

Then I, the most powerful archmage in the world of Azeroth, the great lich, can study this special spell and see if I can replicate it!

If we can replicate this power, it will be used by the Scourge, and then we will have the right to challenge this demigod.

"You mean, I should send out a force to capture some of these special star-shaped undead, right?" Arthas asked.

"That's right, the great Lich King!"

"So who do you think should be sent to carry out this difficult mission?" Arthas asked, looking at his most loyal and powerful AI, Kel'Thuzad.

"I will go there personally, with the Knights of the Ebon Blade. My goal this time is to capture a new type of undead and then return directly to Northrend to begin research," Kel'Thuzad said.

I'd also like to meet a powerful demigod of the wilderness, and if this demigod is short of subordinates, they might be able to help me get rid of the Crown of Domination.

Kel'Thuzad wouldn't mind getting a new boss, since his current boss was a bit mentally unstable, not very strong, and lacked cunning and strategy.

"You won't betray me, will you, Kel'Thuzad?" Arthas asked, squinting.

"You possess the Crown of Domination, the great Lich King. All the undead must submit to your control. Let me capture that new type of undead for you, and then manipulate him with the Crown of Domination." Kel'Thuzad's massive skull mouth split open, emitting a grotesque laugh.

The Lich King had a blind confidence in the Crown of Domination, but Kel'Thuzad didn't think so. The Crown of Domination had a problem once before, so who could guarantee that it wouldn't have a problem a second time?

Besides, this power was merely bestowed upon me by others!

"Besides the Knights of the Ebon Blade, bring Naxxramas Keep with you, just in case. After you capture the new type of undead, head to the Eastern Plaguelands. I have some things I want to confirm," Arthas said.

"Yes, Your Majesty! Great Lich King."

The Scourge then sprang into action, sending two floating cities, Kel'Thuzad's Naxxramas Fortress and the Knights of the Ebon Blade's Acherus Fortress, one large and one small, flying together toward Tirisfal Glades.

"My dear, now that all the Forsaken have been resurrected, we think we should change our name. We can't call ourselves the Forsaken anymore," Sylvanas said, sitting in Rhodes' lap.

They were called the Forsaken because of their hatred for the living and their obsession with revenge against the Lich King.

But now, thanks to the artificial Devil Fruits and their unique immortality, the new undead have evolved into a distinct race, and calling them the Forgotten Ones is a bit beneath them.

"Then how about you call yourselves the Newborn, or the Undead?" Rhodes said, then put his arm around Sylvanas's smooth waist and began to caress it.

"The name 'Undead' is terrible, but 'Newborn' is not bad. We have indeed been reborn, so from now on we will be called Newborn. The Forsaken will be officially renamed Newborn," Sylvanas nodded and said.

"Haha! I'm glad you like it! Let's play a game. You go lie by the window, and we can look at the scenery while..."

Rhodes' arm slid down stealthily, sneaking into the Queen's jungle to steal the river crab from the bushes.

But for some reason, the river crab turned into abalone today.

"Hmm, you certainly have a lot of tricks up your sleeve. I'll go change into my smaller armor and come back." Sylvanas said, her face slightly flushed, as she lifted Rhodes' chin. (End of Chapter)
