Chapter 683: Expulsion

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

Of course, Neltharion wasn’t here to help Illidan and the others. He was here for the Dragon Soul.

Although he had escaped from the battlefield with the Dragon Soul before, after returning to his lair, the influence of the Dragon Soul on him gradually appeared. The completion of the Dragon Soul actually represented Neltharion’s complete fall, and evil power began to grow in his body. Not only did it change his appearance, but it even made his sanity lower, and crazy thoughts started taking over his mind.

The tremendous changes in his body brought Neltharion immense pain, forcing him to sleep to alleviate it. Moreover, during this time, he had ordered the goblin engineers who served him to build a set of armor for him to stabilize his body that was beginning to collapse.

But what Neltharion didn’t expect was that before the goblins finished forging the armor, his Dragon Soul was stolen while he was sleeping!

Neltharion didn’t know who stole it. He only knew that he had to get it back!

So after waking up, Neltharion relied on his perception of the Dragon Soul to chase after it. But at this moment, Mannoroth had already placed the Dragon Soul above the Well of Eternity, and a barrier had formed.

How could Neltharion care so much? Through the barrier, he saw his precious artifact in front of him, so he focused on breaking through the barrier and rushing over to take back what belonged to him.

His commotion naturally helped Illidan and the others. The Black Aspect was so powerful that the barrier began to flicker and become shaky under his all-out tearing. Seeing this scene, Illidan and the others, who had already begun to despair, immediately had hope again, so they intensified their attacks on the barrier.

Finally, with a loud explosion, the barrier was really broken.

Overjoyed, Illidan and the others quickly rushed toward the Dragon Soul, but Neltharion was one step faster. After smashing open the barrier, he spread his wings and pounced at the Dragon Soul in the air.

His enormous claws grabbed the Dragon Soul, and then he descended. But what was strange was that an incomparably immense force suddenly erupted from the Dragon Soul. This force directly sent Neltharion flying. The Black Aspect let out an earth-shaking roar as his massive body was hurled several kilometers away, directly out of the range of the Well of Eternity’s portal.

This sudden change stunned almost everyone. But Krasus quickly reacted and shouted, “He suffered a backlash! The artifact rejected him!”

Let’s not talk about whether this conclusion was correct or not, but it greatly boosted the spirits of Illidan, Malfurion, and the others. Illidan leaped into the sky above the Well of Eternity and steadily caught the falling Dragon Soul. Malfurion raised his staff and summoned a gust of wind to blow Illidan back.

At this moment, the portal above the Well of Eternity had expanded to a terrifying extent, and the colossal figure of Sargeras was already faintly visible on the other side of the portal. It seemed that Sargeras was already ready to come.

After discovering that time was not on their side, Illidan and Malfurion didn’t waste any time. The two of them joined forces to infuse magic power into the Dragon Soul and began to activate it in reverse.

In fact, strictly speaking, the portal above the Well of Eternity was not built by the Burning Legion but by the magic of the Highborne. After the Burning Legion took over, they only strengthened the portal on the foundation of the Highborne’s magic, so this gave Illidan and Malfurion an opportunity. They were familiar with the magic of the Highborne, so they could analyze the portal in a targeted manner.

Forcefully activating the Dragon Soul almost drained all of Illidan’s and Malfurion’s magic power. Seeing that the situation wasn’t good, Krasus and Rhonin quickly joined in the process of transmitting magic power. With the combined efforts of several people, Illidan and Malfurion held the Dragon Soul and pointed it at the portal above the Well of Eternity. Then an enormous beam of light shot out from the Dragon Soul and poured into the portal.

The next moment, the entire sky above the Well of Eternity, and even the entire city of Zin-Azshari, suddenly surged with wind and clouds. The swirling vortex of the portal was reversed and began to rotate in the opposite direction.

Originally, in the setting of this portal, Azeroth should be the exit. But under the reversal of Illidan and Malfurion, the portal on Azeroth immediately became the entrance. And it just so happened that the Dragon Soul contained the power of the titans. During the entire resonance process, it inevitably stimulated the protective mechanism of the planetary shield, so this portal immediately produced an unparalleled suction force!

This suction force had no effect on the native creatures of Azeroth, but it was troublesome for non-native creatures. In the violent gusts, the first to be unlucky were the demons surrounding everyone at the edge of the barrier. They were sucked into the sky in panic, and even their weapons fell to the ground. After being sent into the portal, they disappeared.

Then came the demons in Zin-Azshari. Be it the inferior demons, cerberi, or doomguards, none of them could escape the fate of being sucked in.

At the same time, Illidan noticed that the Well of Eternity was undergoing tremendous changes. The originally calm well water was churning violently, and a huge vortex began to form, illustrating a radiant scene with the portal in the sky.

This unusual change in the Well of Eternity immediately gave Illidan, Malfurion, and the others a bad feeling. It was the same for Tyrande. At this moment, she seemed to have received a revelation from Elune and blurted out, “Not good. The Well of Eternity might explode!”

After realizing this, Tyrande and Malfurion became anxious. It was a good thing that the reverse portal could expel the demons, but it was not within their expectations that the Well of Eternity would explode. It had to be known that the Well of Eternity was basically made of pure energy. Once it exploded, the scale would definitely not be small. This explosion might destroy all of Zin-Azshari and even affect Suramar.

“We have to inform our compatriots and get them to evacuate!” Malfurion said. “Tyrande, leave quickly!”

Tyrande didn’t waste any time and immediately turned to leave. But just as she left, Krasus said to Malfurion, “Leave this to us. Malfurion, you leave too. Your people need your guidance!”

Malfurion turned his head and looked at Krasus, Ronin, and Broxigar. After seeing the sincerity in their eyes, he sighed. “Thank you, my friends. The night elves will remember your kindness forever!”

Then Malfurion left on his reindeer.

At this moment, the Dragon Soul was already operating smoothly, so there was no need for more magic power to maintain it. Just Krasus and Rhonin were enough. After the two mages took over the Dragon Soul, they looked at Illidan.

“Aren’t you leaving?” Krasus asked Illidan.

“They don’t recognize me as a member of their people!” Illidan replied in a deep voice. “They see me as a traitor… So I don’t need to save them.”

Krasus and Rhonin didn’t know what to say about this. They knew very well that it was all thanks to Illidan that they could do this. Unfortunately, Illidan’s contribution was destined not to be recognized by the night elves…

As the portal rotated, more and more demons were being sucked in. Of course, this expulsion would not affect all of Azeroth, and the demons who had gone out to fight across Kalimdor would probably be left behind in the end. But this was enough. The demons could be slowly eliminated. The top priority was to prevent Sargeras from entering.

In the distant sky, a giant body was flying over uncontrollably. Everyone looked up and found that it was Archimonde! His giant body couldn’t resist the expulsion. Even though he was roaring angrily, he couldn’t avoid the fate of being sucked into the portal.

Seeing that Archimonde was also expelled, everyone revealed relieved expressions. But then they realized that there was a commander of the Burning Legion in Zin-Azshari. Where was King of Despair Osiris?!

In the palace, Roy was also resisting this massive attraction, but he was sitting firmly on a huge chair, forming a sharp contrast to Archimonde’s flailing.

The massive changes in the Well of Eternity naturally alarmed Azshara. After seeing this scene on the terrace, she ran to Roy’s palace in a panic and asked him in a shocked tone, “What’s going on?!”

While forcibly resisting this attraction, Roy grinned sinisterly at Azshara. “Haha, Queen Azshara, it seems like your dream is going to be ruined. The people you once disdained resisted the Burning Legion with practical actions and also resisted you!”

“No, this is impossible! How can those lowly commoners…” Azshara cursed hysterically, her elegant queen manner completely gone.

Roy slowly stood up from his seat and looked down at her. “You’d better think about how to face your people next! Without the support of the Burning Legion, their angry flames will devour you…”

With that, Roy walked past Azshara and headed out of the palace. In her daze, she muttered to him, “Where are you going?”

“None of your business!” Roy said without looking back.

These words completely defeated Azshara. It wasn’t until this moment that she realized that this commander of the Burning Legion, and even the demons of the entire Burning Legion, had never taken her seriously…

Roy walked out of the palace step by step. Every step he took left a deep pit in the ground. He was controlling immense gravity and exerting it on himself to resist the power of expulsion. As he walked, he was calculating the time and whispered, “Sargeras, you should be anxious, right?”

Sargeras was indeed anxious. Just as the portal was about to be completed, such a big change suddenly occurred. When Archimonde was sent back, Sargeras finally couldn’t hold himself back.

Realizing that the portal was likely about to close, Sargeras simply squeezed in first. His hands came out from the depths of the portal, grabbed its edges, and pulled apart, attempting to tear it open and expand it enough for him to enter.

These gigantic hands covering the sky made Krasus and Rhonin, who were maintaining the Dragon Soul, terrified and anxious. But they couldn’t think of a way to stop it for the time being.

In their anxiety, they overlooked one thing—Illidan had disappeared at some point…

Because Sargeras wanted to force his way in, the portal was blocked for a short time. Many demons sucked into the sky screamed as they fell from high altitudes. Similarly, because the suction had temporarily disappeared, Roy’s footsteps became much lighter. He walked through the palace and arrived at the edge of the Well of Eternity, where he saw a figure.

“Illidan Stormrage, you are indeed here!”

Hearing Roy’s laughter, Illidan was startled and immediately turned around. He held the Twin Blades of Azzinoth with both hands and assumed a fighting stance while looking at Roy vigilantly.

“Osiris… haven’t you been expelled?”
