After working with the Alliance for a long time, Little Salufar had also developed the ability to coordinate artillery, mechanized armor, and scattered soldiers.
Seeing that the Alliance's tanks were the first to charge forward with their tanks, the Beastmen did not fall behind. They ran at full speed, perfectly matching the rhythm of the attack, and broke into the city from the east.
In the south of the city, because the Dalajan had spat out a large amount of sand and gravel, the tornado wall could not carry any more sand and gravel away. Most of the sand and gravel fell to the west and south. This formed a natural siege slope.
There was no need for siege ladders or anything like that. The Forsaken could just rush up the slope and reach the city wall.
"For eternal death!" Anastrian pointed with his finger, and the Forsaken under his command immediately began to charge, as if they were going to break the river with a flick of their whip.
The process of taking over the City of Calamity was a little boring.
Just as the Sun King had predicted, the Undying inside were not the main force. Although there were many of them, most of them were low-level Undead such as Skeleton Soldiers and Zombies.
Not to mention the Liches and Death Knights that were the core of the Calamity Army, even high-level Banshees and Abominations were rarely seen.
Delano split a large Skeletal Warrior in half with his axe, then stomped on it with his thick metal boots. The skull of the Skeletal Warrior disintegrated into a pile of white debris on the spot. "Just like Father said, the Doomsday Army is likely to give up on the Calamity City, huh?"
However, the resistance in the City of Calamity was still quite fierce.
There were no high-level Undead soldiers, but almost every building in the city that was slightly taller had been modified into a Spirit Tower. These defensive magic buildings that were full of the Cursing Sect's style were quite annoying.
Above the Spirit Tower was a Spirit Crystal that was suspended in the air. As long as it was a disciple of the lowest level of the Cursing Sect, they would be able to control this Soul Crystal to attack any living beings within a two-hundred-meter radius. This kind of attack on the soul level could not be defended by conventional means.
The power of vengeful spirits could easily penetrate any armor in the world and directly hit one's soul.
Many of the places where the Spirit Towers were set up were quite dangerous, and most of them were surrounded by multiple buildings. From afar, one could not even see them, much less use artillery fire.
Without the Alliance's Paladins, the Horde could only rely on human lives to fill the gap. Using the charging soldiers to draw away the Spectre Tower's firepower, and relying on the Spectre Tower's low attack frequency, they immediately called for the Alliance's tanks to charge over and fire at close range, forcibly destroying the Spectre Tower.
Watching his compatriots fall one by one, Delano felt as though his flesh was being cut off.
The only fortunate thing was that this was not the end for the orc warriors. Before the war, Thrall had reached an agreement with Anastrian. If the Orcs died on the battlefield, Thrall would allow the Forsaken to resurrect them and let them continue to fight as warriors of the Horde. However, they would be included in the ranks of the Forsaken.
In a war, soldiers were expendable.
If the same life could be used up twice, then … at the very least, it could reduce the casualties of the living.
This was a type of bitterness, a type of helplessness.
Three hours later, just as the Allied Forces were about to completely occupy the City of Calamity, news of the appearance of Arthas and Malygos suddenly came from the west and northwest.
In the command post of Naxxramas, Magni yelled, "Direct attack —"
"Whoo whoo whoo whoo —" The wind was howling, accompanied by a terrifying white beam that traversed the sky. Naxxramas, the flying fortress, shook violently.
That was not a terrifying impact that could shake the earth and mountains!
If it was a simple energy cannon attack, it might not have been so terrifying.
What was truly terrifying was that this was a rare dual elemental attack.
The deep and evil shadow element and the bone-chilling ice element. Although these two types of energy did not conflict with each other, but they were not related, they were perfectly blended together to form an unparalleled and terrifying attack!
At this time, Jaina was in charge of the fortress's magic defense. As one of the Alliance's three existing magic powerhouses, Jaina's strength could not be said to be weak.
The moment the magic mirror captured Arthas's figure, Jaina turned on the fortress's magic shield to the maximum.
Naxxramas was no longer the fortress it had been under the control of the Calamity Army. After falling into the hands of the Alliance, it had been expanded, reinforced, and strengthened many times.
The latest strengthening was after Duque became a demigod, and a new layer of magic protection array was added to the surface of Naxxramas. Originally, after Duque obtained the Titan Rune magic inheritance from Malygos, he had planned to strengthen it again. Unfortunately, due to time constraints, he did not have the time to do this.
Even so, Naxxramas's magic protection ability was still quite terrifying.
Even such a Naxxramas could not withstand this attack.
Using the energy of thousands of wronged souls, [Frostmourne's Fury] was ignited. This well-prepared attack easily pierced through Naxxramas's shield.
Jaina did not even have time to use the elements of the magic net before the three layers of shield collapsed in front of her.
With a terrifying roar, the east side of the fortress at a 45-degree angle with the ground, an area the size of three football fields, was penetrated. It entered from below and exited from above.
If it wasn't for Magni controlling the fortress to the side at the last moment, it might have hit the command post directly.
Contact was instantly lost in the five districts. There were more than 1,000 Alliance soldiers there.
This was not all of the casualties.
As the terrifying soul power spread, with the penetrated area as the center, at least 4,000 people in the 32 large spaces around it fell silently. They were all directly hit by the soul attack, and the souls in their bodies were directly annihilated. They died just like that. They did not even have the chance to become immortals before they became corpses.
This was not the end!
In the further areas, countless soldiers suffered a mental shock equivalent to [Banshee's Wail]. The degree of damage depended on how far away they were from the damaged area and how strong their souls were.
It was no exaggeration to say that this attack alone caused at least 30,000 casualties in Naxxramas.
One-third of the entire fortress' functions were paralyzed.
The damage caused by the dual attributes of frost and shadow wasn't over yet. With the breach in the fortress as the center, extreme cold was spreading rapidly.
A huge ice lump was forming.
It was as if it had a life of its own, sucking in frost elements from all directions.
It became bigger and heavier.
In less than 10 seconds, everyone in the fortress felt that the fortress was tilting due to the sudden additional weight.
Looking at the magnified image of the Lich King Arthas standing on the broken dome of the Dark Cathedral, leaning on his sword and wearing a full set of heavy armor, everyone in the command post sucked in a cold breath.
