The Second Empire of Azeroth

Chapter 161: Raid on the Creator's Terrace

“If a frontal assault would incur too many losses, then let’s choose another path!”

Roger pointed to the eastern peaks, saying that crossing them would lead to Brunnhildar Village.

East of Brunnhildar Village, a small path led north.

“We’ll raid the Creator's Terrace!”

The crowd exchanged glances, all feeling that this was a good idea.

However—

“If the Iron Dwarves attack, Frost Citadel will likely have difficulty withstanding their assault,” Azadas said worriedly.

Because of his decision, the Frost Dwarves had suffered heavy losses.

Without the help of the Northrend Expedition, they would be unable to withstand the Iron Dwarves' attack.

“I can stay behind and help defend Frost Citadel!” Muradin said.

The Bronzebeard Dwarves he led were allied forces of the Northrend Expedition.

These Bronzebeard Dwarves had never been to Blackrock Mountain and still harbored animosity towards the Dark Iron Dwarves.

If it weren't for needing the Dark Iron Dwarves' strength in Northrend and fearing Roger's power, they would have attacked the Dark Iron Dwarves long ago.

To prevent conflicts with the Dark Iron Dwarves, Muradin had been avoiding operating with the main force of the Northrend Expedition.

Staying behind to guard Frost Citadel was the same consideration for him.

Roger shook his head slightly.

“That’s not enough!”

The number of combat-ready personnel was less than the Frost Dwarves.

Muradin himself was the main fighting force of the Bronzebeard Dwarves.

If only the Bronzebeard Dwarves stayed behind, Muradin's situation would be very difficult.

“I can stay behind!” Arthas said at this moment.

Muradin was also his teacher.

Although he wanted to be on the main battlefield, he chose to stay behind for his teacher's sake.

“There’s no need for such trouble!” Roger pointed to both sides of the valley.

“There is a large amount of accumulated snow on top.

If we create an explosion in the valley, we can not only kill the Iron Dwarves but also create an avalanche.

The accumulated snow on both sides will pile up in the valley, enough to submerge it.

It will also take some time for the Iron Dwarves to escape the avalanche, enough time for us to complete our raid.”

Everyone nodded upon hearing this.

“Alright, Turalyon, you and Khadgar prepare to cross the peaks.

I’ll take care of the valley.”

After giving his instructions, Roger went to make bombs.

The arcane bombs had been used up during his time in Draenor.

After arriving in the Azeroth timeline, Roger had collected a lot of materials, but because his strength had increased significantly, he hadn't made any arcane bombs.

However, facing the Old Gods in Ulduar next, Roger did need some weapons with high damage.

What weapon had higher damage than arcane bombs?

Obviously, there were none!

Roger spent a few days making many arcane bombs.

During this time, the Northrend Expedition had prepared.

Using the Proto-Dragons, many members of the Northrend Expedition had reached Brunnhildar Village and were collecting supplies and making preliminary preparations there.

Roger teleported to the eastern peaks of the valley, waved the Scepter of Sargeras, and threw a giant arcane bomb into the portal.

The portal closed, and a giant mushroom cloud rose in the valley.

The mountains began to shake, and accumulated snow began to slide down.

Roger opened the portal again and left before the snow under his feet collapsed.

At Frost Citadel, everyone looked north, watching the snow submerge the valley.

It took a long time for the snow to stop falling, and only then could people see the situation inside.

The entire valley was submerged, and there was no trace of the Iron Dwarves.

Even if some Iron Dwarves were still alive under such thick snow, it would probably take a long time for them to crawl out!

If it weren't for the snow, the best option would have been for the Northrend Expedition to go directly through the valley.

At this time, they wondered: Had Roger been planning to blow up the valley from the beginning, which was why he wanted to raid the Creator's Terrace?

However, no one gave them an answer.

The Northrend Expedition gradually climbed over the high mountains and reached Brunnhildar Village.

Under the guidance of the Hyldnir and the Sons of Hodir, the Northrend Expedition embarked on the mountain path and reached the vicinity of the Creator's Terrace.

After a short rest, Roger issued the order to attack.

The Iron Dwarves guarding the Creator's Terrace were unprepared and caught off guard.

However, they were not afraid and quickly adjusted their defensive strategy, blocking the Northrend Expedition on the steps.

Seeing the battle stalemated, Roger waved his hand and sent out the Proto-Dragon Knights.

Hundreds of Proto-Dragons flew to the Creator's Terrace, swooping down and crashing into the Iron Dwarves' formation.

These powerful dragons opened their mouths and swallowed some Iron Dwarves, using their dragon breath to melt their bodies and swallow them into their bellies.

Under the Proto-Dragons' attack, the Iron Dwarves' defense began to collapse.

With the heroes as the spearhead, the Northrend Expedition rushed up the Creator's Terrace and occupied various key locations.

Soon, all the Iron Dwarves were killed, and the Northrend Expedition completely occupied the Creator's Terrace.

Azadas and Eronaya led the dwarves to begin clearing the Titan devices on the Terrace.

Ten thousand years had damaged many devices.

However, Azadas possessed the power of the Titan Khaz'goroth and was best at creation, quickly formulating a repair plan.

However, finding the repair materials would take some time.

Roger ordered the Northrend Expedition to establish defensive positions while also helping Azadas collect materials so that the Creator's Terrace could repair these devices as soon as possible.

The devices on the Creator's Terrace could create life.

Although not as powerful as the Forge of Wills, their function was still significant.

In addition to creating life, these devices could also heal the injured.

The stronger a person was, the more difficult it was to heal after being injured.

Because the stronger a person was, the stronger their body was, and the harder it was to get injured.

But once they were injured, the more energy they needed.

A few days later, Azadas finally repaired some of the devices.

The injured Vrykul were quickly able to fight again after being treated by the devices.

The enemies they would face next would become more and more powerful, and Roger needed the combat power of these Vrykul.

However, before the Northrend Expedition could finish resting, an uninvited guest came to their door.

A powerful Titan Keeper, riding a powerful Proto-Dragon, descended from the sky and landed on the Creator's Terrace.

He scanned the Northrend Expedition before turning his gaze to Azadas, who was operating the device.

“Azadas? Eronaya? Didn’t you leave with Tyr?

Why are you back?

I heard that Tyr is dead, is that true?”

Azadas and Eronaya looked at the Titan Keeper in surprise.

“Thorim?”

“It’s me!” Thorim looked at the Vrykul hatefully and said mockingly, “Azadas, I didn’t expect you to have fallen so far as to associate with these filthy Vrykul!”
