Times were changing, technology was developing, and the development of magic continued.
Compared to the Dalajan that had suffered heavy losses during the battle with Naxxramas. Now, the Dalajan was on a path of no return in the direction of the Magic Stronghold.
It still looked like those purple domes and towering spires.
In reality, the magic circuit structure inside was completely different.
Kael 'thas knew that his position as the chairman of the Kirin Tor was only in name. In reality, the entire Dalajan was still under Duque's absolute control.
Apart from that, the runes and mana transmission channels of every Wizard Tower in the Dalajan were all connected to Duque's Weave.
In a sense, the Dalajan was the core of the Weave, just that it was at the same level as Karazhan.
Duque was more willing to call it a 'double core'!
The Dalajan was the most important chess piece to break the Lich King Arthas' elemental monopoly in the Icecrown Glacier.
Its approach caused the hexagram magic formation, which had become incomplete due to the betrayal of the Black Edge Knights, to become even more fragmented.
The sky was no longer filled with bone-chilling winds and fluttering white snowflakes.
The entire sky was now occupied by the purplish blue of arcane energy. From time to time, zigzagging lightning flashed. In the void, the layers of clouds and various elemental turbulence were mixed together, boiling like porridge.
In the sky above the Dalajan, a small vortex appeared on the left, center, and right. In just a few minutes, it was like a rock hitting water, creating ripples in the air that spread outwards. In the end, it formed three huge circles of red, white, and purple.
Every circle was more than a kilometer in diameter.
Anyone with the slightest elemental sensitivity would know that this was the largest elemental passage in history that the Dalajan, the core of the Weave, had opened. It corresponded to the fire, water, and wind elemental realms.
More black dots flickered in the storm caused by the elemental turbulence, like black sesame seeds dotting the sky. Every time the blue and white radiance flashed, a Morning Star Wizard dressed in magic robes would be left standing on a ten-metre square conical floating stone.
If one were to observe carefully, they would discover that the floating stone that every mage was standing on was actually a node of a magic array that was half-hidden and frozen in midair.
These Magi, who were at least at the Morning Star rank, spread out in the two kilometre wide sky.
In ancient times when magic civilization was not so developed, mortals would be more willing to call these mages Oracles, right?
Duque's promotion of the Weave didn't bring more top-ranked wizards to the Alliance, but the number of mid-ranked and low-ranked wizards in the Alliance grew exponentially.
These ten thousand Sky Mages were the best proof.
Although they all had various drawbacks of rapid growth, their combat strength was real.
On the Calamity Army's side, every Undying looked up at the sky. There was a moment of silence on the battlefield.
The twelve huge flying warships were like twelve pages of a book. They circled around the Dalajan and slowly turned to face the dam.
The muzzles of the magic cannons that stretched out from the opened cannons shone brightly under the elemental radiance. Those with sharp eyes would notice that the insignia of Duque's Storm was engraved on the barrel of each cannon.
When the twelve magical warships, which were built using the same principles as the floating city, turned around one by one and aimed at the dam with one side of the ship's side.
The giants guarding the dam keenly felt a great danger looming over them.
There was no sound in the sky, only the sounds of nature.
All the commands were transmitted and communicated in the domain of magic.
"Magic warships in position!"
"Open the cannons!"
In the next moment, the twelve warships shook violently. One side of their hull suddenly shot out a rainbow light that wasn't fire.
It was the radiance of high-purity fire elemental energy.
"Roar —" Before the Alliance soldiers could react, the six-story-tall giants standing on the defensive line of the dam let out a deafening roar.
A bright explosion suddenly spread across the entire defensive line of the dam.
This was just the appetizer!
When the magic warships poured all their firepower on the giant Undead Creatures …
The new generation of more advanced magic-infused cannons that were directly connected to the magic net began to display their power.
If the traditional magic cannons only turned the giant Undead Creatures into human-shaped torches, it would take a while to burn their bodies and souls to ashes.
But the new magic-infused cannons could not only destroy the Undead Creatures, but they could also directly threaten the fortress that had been strengthened by magic runes.
When the Dalajan fired all the magic cannons toward the northwest, even Arthas, who was watching the battle from the Ice Throne in the distant Icecrown Fortress, raised his head subconsciously and faced the direction of the Dalajan.
It was simple. In that instant, even he, the Lich King, felt threatened.
"Rumble —"
There was an earth-shattering explosion.
Immediately, when the cannons stopped firing, the members of the Silver Hand Knights, led by Theon, quickly rushed to the giants of flesh and blood who had not yet fallen under the cannons.
More than a hundred holy knights raised their weapons at the same time, descending from the sky in a horse-slashing stance and swinging their weapons at the monsters. More than a hundred streaks of holy aura extended from the flame-shaped weapons in their hands, piercing through the monsters whose lifeforce had fallen to its lowest point in an instant.
Many Undead Creatures were directly blown up.
At the southern end of the plains that were once filled by the River of Weakness, Anastrian, the Sun King, silently watched the collapsing defensive line of the Scourge.
If it had been twenty years earlier, this terrifying defensive line would not have been shaken at all.
But now, the huge dam was collapsing, and fragments the size of houses were falling down. All the Undead Creatures except the Undead Creatures below were flattened.
The Skeleton Archers with bows and arrows, as well as the Liches with Magic Staffs, who were neatly lined up on the dam, were all flattened.
If it were not for the fact that there was a steady stream of Scourge soldiers pouring out of the secret passage behind the dam, the Sun King would have even thought that the defensive line had been completely destroyed, and that the Forsaken under him would not be able to do anything.
The Sun King raised his golden Magic Staff with a Phoenix Head high, and the deep voice of the soul spread throughout the spirit sea of all the Forsaken.
"For eternal death —"
With that, the army of Undead Creatures surged toward the higher mountain pass of the Icecrown Glacier.
It was like water flowing backwards, giving people a discordant and dazed feeling!
