Azeroth: Starting with Eagle Eye in the Necropolis.

The evil power emanating from the other party terrified him, so Magtheridon's first thought was that the Legion should send an even more powerful demon to replace him.

This scene left the allied forces who had followed Illidan to attack the Black Temple speechless.

So what are you doing? We closed the portal outside the Dark Temple and then stormed into it in a big way, and you didn't even notice.

Are you sure you're not joking? How did someone like this become the ruler of Outland?

Rhodes was also speechless. Although, according to the chronicles, when Magtheridon first met Illidan, he did indeed mistake him for someone sent by the Legion.

But you know nothing about what's happening outside? Or is this just the Burning Legion's custom to kill the old commander before a new one takes over?

Okay, it seems pointless for you to discuss these things with these demons. You can't judge demons with normal thinking.

Moreover, strictly speaking, Illidan is now nominally working for Kil'jaeden, so in a way, he seems to be considered half a member of the Burning Legion in the eyes of these demons.

"The Burning Legion? No, no, no, you've got it wrong. My name is Illidan. I'm here to replace your fool, and I'm not a member of the Burning Legion," Illidan said with a cold snort.

It was only then that Matheridon realized something was wrong. It seemed, perhaps, that his base had been raided.

He saw that a certain Destroyer Queen, accompanied by a large number of female demons, was already standing beside Illidan. In addition, there were many humans, elves, and draenei around Illidan.

“Illidan! You damned traitor! And Shaheras, you shameless bitch! How dare you trespass into my territory!” Magtheridon roared immediately, then picked up the weapon beside him.

The Destruction Demon Queen, Shaheras, glanced at the fat man on the throne with utter disdain. What right did this idiot have to rule over a land?

This guy is a complete simpleton, all brawn and no brains! How could I possibly be his subordinate and take his orders? It would be an insult to me.

Thinking of this, Sahras looked at Illidan with adoration, her eyes filled with infatuation and love. Only a powerful demon like Lord Illidan could rule her.

Looking into the grandmother's eyes, Rhode became even more certain that the two were having an affair. Who would have thought! There was actually a kingly aura in the world of Azeroth that caused the enemy's female subordinates to surrender immediately.

Illidan's treatment would make him a quintessential overpowered protagonist in a fantasy novel! Of course, it would be even more perfect if he could win back his sister-in-law in the future.

Illidan flew forward without fear, confronting Magtheridon from afar: "Your domain? Magtheridon, you've held this position for too long. It's time for a change! Today, I've come to take your place!"

"Arrogance! I will crush you all into mincemeat!" Magtheridon roared, rising upright in a rage, his massive body exuding a terrifying aura. He raised his enormous double-headed spear, and dense fel energy began to gather around him.

"All troops, charge!" Rhodes gave the order without hesitation. "Paladins, hold the front! Mages and rangers, attack his flanks and back! Shaheras, have your minions disrupt his spellcasting!"

"As you wish, Lord Rhodes." Matriarch Shaheras chuckled, leading the Destroyers to disperse, and a series of weakening curses and pain spells coiled towards Magtheridon like venomous snakes.

A great battle erupted instantly!

Some of the demons under Matheridon's command also began to fight fiercely with the allied forces. These demons were very powerful, but they were still no match for the Archangel of Light, the elementals of Light, and the powerful warriors of the allied forces.

Matheridon swung his spear and slammed it into the ground—[Flame Impact]!

A massive shockwave, carrying fel flames, spread out in a ring, attempting to blast away all the surrounding allied forces.

"Divine Shield!" The paladins in the front row activated their survival skills one after another. The golden holy light shields stood firm in the fel flames, while Akama led the draenei warriors to cast a collective [Devotion Aura], greatly increasing the armor of the surrounding allies.

At this moment, Rhodes had a strange sense of familiarity; it was just like fighting a boss in a dungeon!

Look at the Paladin as the tank, the Priest as the healer, the Mage as the DPS, and the Demon Hunter Illidan and Rhodes—these are the main DPS characters in this war.

"Attack his joints and wings!" Prince Kael'thas commanded the fire phoenixes and mage troops, concentrating their firepower on Magtheridon's relatively vulnerable wing joints and leg joints. Arcane missiles, Pyroblasts, and Frostbolts rained down.

Rhodes' improved version of the Holy Light Magic Arrow unleashed its power once again, with one dazzling spear after another accurately striking Magtheridon's eyes and mouth, forcing him to dodge or close his eyes to withstand the attacks, causing him to roar in pain.

Illidan was the main force of the attack. The demon hunter's agile figure weaved through the air, dodging Magtheridon's heavy blows. The Warblade of Azzinoth danced in his hands like a green storm of death, its movements powerful and fierce. Each slash left a deep wound on Magtheridon's thick carapace, and fel fire burned his flesh along the wounds.

Sahras and her succubi also played a crucial role, constantly using their charm abilities to bewitch Magtheridon's mind. Although they couldn't completely control him, they greatly disrupted his judgment and spellcasting rhythm, causing the Pit Lord's supposedly devastating Chaos Impact and Fel Nova to be repeatedly interrupted or miss.

To be honest, this Abyss Lord was completely unable to withstand such a brutal beating from so many combatants. Rhodes even thought that if Illidan went all out and transformed into his demon form, he could take him down by himself.

But that defeats the purpose of running dungeons! The loot and gear you get after defeating a boss are what make it exciting. Magtheridon, let's see what good stuff you can drop for me!

The holy light elements in the sky focused the light spear and holy sword on Magtheridon's relatively vulnerable joints. Rhodes's [Holy Light Magic Arrow] was like a precise scalpel, repeatedly shooting at Magtheridon's gaping maw as he attempted to cast spells, forcing him to constantly interrupt the large-scale fel magic spells he was brewing.

Magtheridon was in an unprecedented predicament. He was facing a barrage of attacks from Illidan, surrounded by a solid defensive line of paladins and draenei, bombarded by mages and rangers in the distance, and lurked by the insidious curses of Sahrawis's team. He possessed devastating power, yet he seemed to be stuck in a quagmire, unable to use it effectively.

The two archangels of holy light hovering in the sky, along with the holy fire phoenix, also put immense pressure on Matheridon. These guys hadn't even joined the battle yet, and he was already exhausted.

My life is over.

"No! I am the Lord of Outland! I will never be defeated by you ants!" Magtheridon roared in despair and madness, desperately stirring up the fel magma beneath the earth in an attempt to launch a final counterattack.

"Feel the rage that has been imprisoned for ten thousand years, Magtheridon!" Illidan roared, his body spinning rapidly in the air as he unleashed a double-bladed slash—[Demon Transformation: Fel Storm]!

A green energy storm instantly enveloped Magtheridon's head, and the exploding fel energy caused him to let out a painful howl.

The battle reached its climax. Magtheridon's vitality was extremely tenacious. Even though he was severely injured, he could still unleash terrifying power. He took a deep breath, his chest bulged, and he was about to spew out the destructive [Fel Flames].

"Mathedydon! Your reign over Outland will end with my own hands!" Illidan's lips curled into a sinister smile. Powerful fel energy instantly bound the demon lord, pinning him to the ground. Illidan did not intend to kill this powerful pit lord; he planned to use his blood to mass-produce new armies.

But sometimes man proposes, God disposes. Just then, a spear of holy light slashed down from the sky, smashing Magtheridon's head apart.

The one who made the move was Rhodes. Stealing kills at the last moment is a must-learn skill for every main carry. Rhodes successfully delivered the final blow, securing the first blood for Magtheridon.

Illidan turned his head stiffly, looking at Rhodes with a speechless expression. I hadn't even declared victory yet, I was going to imprison it, how did you kill it?

"You're welcome, I'll help you all the way," Rod said with a grin.

“Rhodes, why did you kill him? I didn’t intend to kill him. I had other uses for him by imprisoning him. You should know that killing demons in the real world is meaningless,” Illidan said.

"Hahaha, is that so? Why didn't you say so sooner? Why didn't you say so sooner? You should have said so earlier, why didn't you say so sooner? You should have said so sooner." At this moment, Rhodes was unusually cheeky.

"So it's my fault then?" Illidan's tone was very low, clearly indicating his anger.

That brat is making fun of himself again, how awful!

Chapter 236 Rhodes: Illidan, I've got you today!

"Rhodes! If you want to fight me one-on-one, I'm ready anytime. How about we find a secluded spot where no one's around?" Illidan said with an unfriendly expression.

"Hahaha, you can't beat me in a one-on-one fight." Rhodes looked confident. He had just leveled up again, and he immediately added the free attribute point to his strength, bringing his strength to 15 points, making his magic even more powerful.

Instead of upgrading his skills, Rhodes chose to upgrade his advanced air magic. Now, Rhodes' holy light magic has received a greater boost, and in a real fight, Illidan would be no match for him.

This is without using any special units.

“Let’s give it a try! Let’s see if I can get to you as fast as I can.” Illidan revealed his Warglaives of Azzinoth.

Just then, a shadow appeared beside Rhodes. Maiev, holding her circular battle blade, looked at Illidan with a provocative expression, as if to say, "Let's see if you can get past me."

The two archangels of holy light stood to Rhodes' left and right, as if to say, "You little brat, come up here and see how powerful our holy light is."

"Let's fight! Let's fight! That way I can take care of Illidan!" Maiev's face was full of anticipation.

“I’m doing this for your own good, Illidan. There’s no benefit in keeping this guy around. I know what you’re planning! You want to create those fel orcs,” Rhodes said with a smile.

Illidan snorted coldly upon hearing this. It seemed that his little trick had been seen through. That bastard Rhodes wanted to bind him to him, to make all of Illidan's elite troops provide them, and to put Illidan's every move, even every troop deployment, under Rhodes' control.

This was unacceptable to Illidan; he needed an army loyal to him, and the army under the Matriarch was now the only one Illidan could trust.

He desperately needed a new army, and the orcs were the best choice, but that bastard Rhodes actually killed Magtheridon, the key tool for his men to create.

"Rhodes, our cooperation either ends now, or you give me a compensation plan. Otherwise, I will never keep any promises with you again. I mean what I say." Illidan made a harsh statement this time.

"Actually, if you want some cannon fodder units, I can provide them for you. Didn't I say we can discuss fire elementals, and even that kind of evil fire element?" Rhodes shrugged and said.

"I am not your subordinate, Rhodes, you need to understand that. I can accept your army's help, but I cannot be a commander without troops. If this is your sincerity, then goodbye, and get out of the Black Temple right now!" Illidan roared.

This time, Rhodes's killing of Magtheridon truly enraged him. However, Rhodes, don't think I'm out of options. You're just a Pit Lord, right? I can just get another one from the Twisting Nether.

"Orcs who accept the blood of the Pit Lords will become more ferocious and more demonic. Your goal is to fight the Burning Legion, not to join it. Remember that."

The reason I killed Magtheridon was to help you, to prevent you from getting too deeply involved. You don't have a good way to control demons, and using demonic power will corrupt you with fel energy. As for power itself, there is no right or wrong. That's just a saying. Do you really believe it?

After absorbing the power of evil energy, your personality will absolutely become twisted and you will absolutely become evil. That's reality.

What means do you use to control these ferocious orcs? Sorry, you don't have any, and we humans and orcs have a blood feud. You've taken in a large group of ferocious orcs as your subordinates.

"How am I supposed to convince the entire alliance to cooperate with you? Do you still want the alliance's funding?" Rhodes said.

He killed Magtheridon to completely prevent the emergence of the Fel Orcs. If the Fel Orcs appeared on a large scale, the Alliance and Illidan would not be able to cooperate in the future.

After all, Illidan was a demon, and that can't be changed.

"Hmph! Then I don't need your alliance's support. I can deal with the Burning Legion all by myself," Illidan said.

“I will definitely keep my promise to you. Now I have two choices for you. You know I have a very magical resurrection spell.”

If I wanted, I could easily resurrect the already dead Matheridon. His soul hasn't gone too far and hasn't returned to the Twisting Nether. You could imprison him and then, as planned, use his blood to create the Fel Orcs.

However, if that happens, the previous agreement with the Draenei will be nullified, and I will turn all the Broken back into Draenei. Do you know how many that is?

"And all the agreements you've reached with the alliance will be null and void, or you could like to hear my new ideas," Rhodes said with a smile.

Illidan, I'm going to get you today.

"You think you can control me like this, Rhodes? You underestimate me, Illidan! Don't forget that I brought you to Outland. If I want you back, don't even think about going back," Illidan said, narrowing his eyes.

“Hahaha, if this is your trump card, then I can only say that Illidan, you underestimate me, Rhodes. After you sent Vashj to our side and used that teleportation magic multiple times, this interdimensional teleportation technology is no longer a big secret to me. You don’t think I can’t learn it, do you?” Rhodes said with a mysterious smile.

The first cheat code my buddy got after transmigrating to Azeroth was Eagle Eye. This skill was originally used to steal enemy magic on the battlefield, but after upgrading it to a higher level, combined with Rhode's own special skills and some rules of the Azeroth world, it became even more powerful.

Rhode uses Eagle Eye to actively learn magic from others and record it in his spellbook, an ability that other heroes do not possess.

Both Vashj and Illidan had previously used the portal skill in front of Rhodes, and after watching it several times, Rhodes had mastered the spell.

Rhodes can now open portals on his own, and thanks to the 15-point power boost, the portals he opens can last for a full 15 hours.

It's obviously impossible to control yourself with this tactic.

“Think about it, Illidan. If you were to completely fall into demonic ways, what would Tyrande think? You may not care about other people’s feelings, but you can’t not care about Tyrande’s!” Rhodes said.

“Why waste so much breath on him? I think we should just defeat him and arrest him,” Maiev whispered in Rhodes’ ear.

"Tell me your terms, Rhodes. What exactly do you want? Do you want me to be your subordinate?" Illidan said with a cold snort.

This situation is really dangerous! To be honest, he has no more tricks up his sleeve to control Rhodes. This portal technology was originally his trump card.

But who would have thought that Rhodes would actually learn it? No wonder he wanted the main force of the Alliance to return early; it turned out that he wanted Vaschi to cast the spell multiple times and then learn it.

If a real war breaks out, Illidan's Naga forces and newly subdued female demons are definitely no match for these humans and Draenei. In addition, since the start of the war, Rhodes still has a large number of troops that have not been released. Illidan estimates that his chances of winning if he turns against them are less than 10%.

"How could that be? Illidan, I've always considered you a friend, never a subordinate. Even Kael'thas and the others are my friends."

There's no such thing as a superior-subordinate relationship; they only obey my orders because they respect me.

There's a saying that goes, "A wise man submits to circumstances," and you made the right choice, Illidan.

You must corrupt these orcs into fel orcs, but you can order another orc to lead them. My subordinate, Darksus, is the best choice; he will rule all the orc armies under your command for you.

"In the end, all the armies under my command, except for the demons and the Naga, are yours."
