Snowballing was a great skill to learn.
Just like how the world's tycoons played with money before Duque traveled to this world, some things would develop on their own even if they didn't want to.
Of course, Duque could choose not to fight Arthas here and go back to recruit soldiers.
A month later, it wouldn't be a problem for him to summon an army of 300,000. But by then, Arthas might have already built up enough power to drag tens of millions of zombies all over the Lordaeron Continent.
Quantitative change could easily lead to qualitative change. When Arthas had more immortals, a lot of black technology that should have appeared in history would naturally be born. For example, the super monsters that were as tall as three people and made from dozens of corpses — the Abomination!
The Abomination had thick legs and round arms. Its mountain-like body was even bigger than the Dwarf's steam tank.
And because it was a collection of multiple human corpses, its life that was constructed from negative energy was also a composite life form. If the lives of all the immortals on its body were not reduced to zero, it would be impossible to destroy this monster.
Therefore, the Scourge Army's snowballing ability was much stronger than the Alliance and the Horde.
Duque knew very well how disgusting the Scourge Army was.
Whether it was a Lich or a Death Knight, as long as their souls weren't destroyed, they could be resurrected.
But it didn't matter. As long as he killed Arthas once, he could plant the shadow of failure in the fool's heart. Just like what Duque did to Orgrim.
In this way, every time Arthas fought against Duque, he would become less and less confident. Even if his strength kept increasing, he couldn't escape the curse of 'Duque is undefeatable'.
That was why Duque had to fight Arthas even though he didn't have enough people around him.
Duque entered the arena.
With an invincible arrogance.
Thrall took a deep breath.
He wanted to open his eyes wide and see if the rumors were deceiving his ears, or if Duque was about to shine brightly and blinded his eyes.
Duque didn't say he wanted to fight one-on-one, so the other vanguards naturally wouldn't back down. In fact, if Duque didn't enter the arena, their situation would only get worse.
The one who had the deepest impression of this was Rexxar. He lacked a powerful weapon, so it was almost impossible for him to deal any fatal damage to Arthis. The two Paladins were about the same. Their Epic-tier weapons were nothing more than an itch to Arthas' Death Knight armor, which was formed by the power of darkness.
Only Orgrim's [Doomhammer] and Grom's [Bloodhowl] could deal moderate damage to her.
When the Dreadlord appeared, everyone was shocked. Originally, everyone thought that the weaker Duque would deal with the Dreadlord, while the more powerful Antonidas would deal with Arthas.
Who knew they would be swapped.
Duque had his own difficulties. Although Antonidas was strong, the problem was that he specialized in ice magic. Against a Death Knight that was proficient in the ice element, he wouldn't be able to gain an advantage.
In a sense, even the Elven Prince was more useful than Antonidas against Arthas.
Duque left Kael 'thas behind.
Alright, now that they had cut off the strongest Death Knight's external help, and also cut off his life and energy recovery cycle, did this mean that they could get rid of Arthas?
No!
Arthas, who had gathered incalculable power of darkness, was still at the peak of the unreachable cliff in everyone's eyes. To be honest, if Duque couldn't come up with an effective plan, even Orgrim wanted to retreat.
No matter what, this cross-race, cross-faction alliance was still too fragile.
At this moment, Duque made his move.
The moment he made his move, Kael 'thas was shocked.
The High Elves thought of themselves as the ancestors of human magic. Even if they didn't say it out loud, they always thought that they were the ancestors of magic, and that their magic was the strongest.
Even someone as strong as Antonidas was just walking the old path of the Elves, reaching the end of the road in one go.
It was obvious that Duke had taken a completely different path from the traditional magic field.
He wasn't a native, and after seeing the prosperous world, he didn't have the concentration to focus on one thing. He couldn't be as proficient in arcane magic as Rhonin, and he couldn't play with ice magic like Antonidas and Jaina.
But Duque had something that all the Mages in this world didn't have — the System Elf.
This meant that if Duque wanted to play something, to be able to do what others couldn't, it would all depend on this.
Countless portals that looked like portals suddenly bloomed in the space around and above Duque.
Anyone who wasn't a Mage would think that these were real.
Only Kael 'thas immediately sensed the strange aura on these so-called portals — portals that didn't have spatial fluctuations?
In the next moment, countless figures stepped out of the portal, each of them holding a dazzling weapon in their hands. They suddenly appeared in the empty sky and land.
Unsheathed swords, sturdy hammers, exquisite staffs, bright knives — every weapon had unique shiny decorations. Not only that, but they also constantly emitted magic fluctuations that couldn't be hidden.
It was obvious that they weren't ordinary weapons. They could only be high-level weapons.
It was very likely that most of them were epic weapons!
No! There was no need for that!
They were all epic weapons.
[Massacre Sword], [Titan's Blade], [Warmonger] …
These people wielding all sorts of epic melee weapons seemed to be Heroic Spirits, but they were all fakes. More than a hundred fake Heroic Spirits formed a huge circular defense line, killing all the Undying that attempted to rush within a hundred meters of Arthas.
At the same time, countless Elven archers appeared in the sky.
Although they all had different hairstyles and appearances, and outsiders could easily have facial blindness when they looked at the Elves, Kael 'thas felt dizzy when he saw them.
Damn, where did so many Aurelia and Sasha come from?
Duque, why did you create so many copies of your own women?
The second batch that came out were also illusions that Duque made with the System Elf.
The people were illusions, and the weapons in his hands were naturally illusions as well, but they looked so real!
[Loengoru, Heartbreaker Bow], [Heart Striker], [Huhuran Thorn], [Dragon's Breath Cannon] …
The moment they appeared, they immediately stood in the air and used the long-range weapons in their hands to attack Arthas.
The third batch was the trump card.
One Jaina, two Jainas … many Jainas.
The illusion of Jaina, wearing robes of seven different colors — red, orange, yellow, green, cyan, blue, and purple — all held staffs and bombarded Arthas with magic!
"No —" Second Fool was going crazy.
