8. Luna's Scythe
Dick walked through the low woods, and the closer he got to the hillside, the clearer the sound of the battle became, and he could see very clearly that below the hillside was a mine, and from which the sound of battle came. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The paladin shook his left hand, he didn't think that there was a guy who could threaten him in the Twilight Forest, but the strange aura coming from the mine cave made him a little familiar, it was in the battle of Mount Hyjal, the breath of those moon priests when they cast spells, exactly the same!
Is there a moon sacrifice in the twilight forest?
Are you kidding!
"Dick, I feel the magic of darkness!"
The boy who followed behind the paladin was full of excitement, and a hint of flush appeared on his yellow face, obviously stimulated by the upcoming battle, no matter what kind of boy he was, he actually had a violent factor that advocated fighting in his bones, and Madian was the same.
Dick nodded, and whispered to Median,
"Protect yourself and follow me!"
One big and one small made their way into the pit, which was clearly still functioning, with rough piles of ore in the corners and dim chandeliers hanging overhead.
The paladin reached out and blessed himself and Median with a blessing of wisdom, which was the second blessing spell he mastered, which could effectively increase the recovery speed of mana or holy energy, and also slightly increase the damage of spells.
The aura of punishment was also activated, and a golden arc was condensed on the blade of the bloody roar.
Merry taught Median well, at least in terms of combat, the boy already had the demeanor of an orthodox mage, and the three layers of magic shield were blessed by him, but the nervousness still made him clench his wand and short sword, and his breathing became heavy.
The twisting pit was difficult to navigate, but at the third turn, the deepest part of the small cavern came into view of Dick and Median.
Three hapless miners had collapsed in a pool of blood, and in the dim light, four men stood up, wearing leather armor, waving sharp claws, and a monster with a wild wolf head was frantically besieging a female elf.
Dick saw the roots of this female elf at a glance, she was wearing the standard leather armor of the sentinel unit, with the bat-shaped visor that only elite huntress would wear, which was often chosen by the elves when they went out, which was easy to move and hide, and the female elf held a long scythe in her hand, and was struggling to resist the siege of the four howling werewolves.
She already had a lot of scratches on her body, her left leg was also injured, and at the moment when Dick and Median appeared, a werewolf was taking its claws off the elf's neck, and there was flesh and blood in them... She's dying!
This blow has already scratched her throat!
"This monster! I've seen it in books! It's..."
"It's a werewolf!kid, a druid-dark beast! you can't deal with these guys, stay away!"
Dick opened his left hand, and the delicate flail of holy light was flung at the head of a werewolf who jumped in the air to attack, and the paladin pounced on the battlefield like a tiger descending from a mountain!
The brilliant holy light that was not triggered completely burst out at this moment, illuminating the dim mine as if it were day, and the werewolves covered their eyes with wailing, from dim to extremely bright, this hasty change caught these hunters off guard!
But Dick's axe blade had already slashed through the neck of the nearest werewolf, and the scorching holy light should have completely cut off this guy's neck, but the superb hunting instinct made this werewolf shrink back strangely when he couldn't defend it, and avoided death!
"Give me an opponent! Dick! Give me one!"
Stimulated by Dick's heroic stance, Median shouted, and the paladin smiled and kicked the mortally wounded werewolf in Madion's direction.
"Okay!
On the other side, the three-headed werewolf sensed Dick's threat, and they abandoned the elf, and pounced on the paladin from the ground, from the top of their heads, and from the air, but the other flail of holy light was already held by Dick, he took a step back, and the flail that had accumulated strength smashed into the face of the werewolf who pounced, and the holy light shattered, and half of the face was smashed by the werewolf howl and flew upside down.
The blood roar was placed horizontally on his side, blocking the werewolf who pounced from the air, behind Dick, the werewolf who kicked against the wall, the sharp claws were blocked by the sudden appearance of the holy light barrier before touching Dick's neck, and the battle axe in the paladin's hand followed the force of the body's rotation, and smashed the back of the axe into the werewolf's chest with nowhere to dodge.
In the blink of an eye, the siege was eliminated, and after a fierce battle with the demons, Dick's martial arts had risen to a higher level, and these three werewolves could no longer pose a threat to him!
However, from the fatal injuries of the huntress and the difficult struggle with the seriously injured werewolves, it can be seen that it is not that these four werewolves are not strong enough, in fact, if they are really crazy, they are completely capable of torturing more than 20 ordinary soldiers, and their hunting instincts and super agility give them terrible hunting skills.
The reason why he was beaten so badly was only because Dick was too strong, that's all!
The last werewolf saw that the situation was not good, and was ready to escape, but just as he was running into the passage of the mine, Dick's left hand flicked, and the sound of chains clashing, and the werewolf who escaped was wrapped around his neck by the black, watchman-style chains, and Dick's left hand flicked, and the werewolf fell at his feet.
The Watchmen's secret chain replaces the dragon hook that Dick lost when fighting the green dragon, and this chain was given to Dick by Merlene, the absolute top product, the purple quality "Thorn Hook Lock", Dick used it extremely easily.
The paladin raised his axe and mended the axe of the two wailing werewolves, there was really nothing to say about this kind of guy who had lost his mind.
Dick raised his hand, and a warm and mellow holy light fell on the huntress who was leaning against the wall, and her breathing became weak, but at this time, this holy light could only barely save her passing life, but it could not save her, and Dick came a little late.
The paladin looked at the huntress who had supported her body with a scythe, and he walked over and said,
"Elf, wake up! you're coming... Wait, this scythe, this is... This is the Luna Scythe?"
Dick's gaze rested on the scythe held by the huntress in his hand, which was too ordinary in appearance, but it was not until the righteous fire on Dick's wrist began to tremble that Dick suddenly thought of a possibility.
In addition to the two large quest lines "Revenge of the Corpse" and "Staven's Fall", there was also a famous quest line "Luna Scythe" that allowed players to run all over the world, and at that time players only knew that this scythe had strange powers, and the ending of this mission was also very nonsense.
So not many people know about it, but Dick is one of the people who experienced that mission, and it was only in the middle and late stages of the game that the luna scythe reappeared in front of the player, and it was one of the four artifacts of the druid, a powerful artifact made from the teeth of the wilderness demigod Godlin and the branches of the World Tree.
In the War of the Ancients, the Grand Druid Lelar used this scythe to turn himself and the other druids into "werewolves", frantically repelling Sartre, but their wildness could not even be controlled by themselves, and in the end they could only be sealed by Malfurion into the deep space of the Emerald Dream.
When the demons invaded the Felwood Forest, the priestess Verinde Starsong who wanted to save her companions found the record of this scythe from the dusty history, she begged Elune to give her the clue to the scythe, and finally succeeded in obtaining the artifact, but she became more and more unable to control the werewolves summoned by the scythe, so after hearing that the archmage of the Eastern Continent, Arugao, had also summoned werewolves, she decided to seek Arugao's help.
Eventually, however, when Verinde walked into the Twilight Forest with the Luna Scythe, she never came out again, and the Scythe was lost.
This is the story of the Luna Scythe, but Dick never imagined that in the real world, he would meet Verinde-Starsong, a reckless and brave priestess, but right now, she was going to die.
"The fire of justice... I... I've seen you, Scythe... Bury it, it's ... It's dark... Ahem, ahem. ”
Verinde's throat was cut, and she struggled to speak, but soon her throat was blocked by blood, and Dick couldn't bear to see her in pain, and he took the scythe from Verinde's hand, and then recalled some legends about the scythe.
"Drop... The plot character Verinde Star Song, who is seriously injured and dying, meets the conditions of a follower, is it transformed?"
Dick pursed the corners of his lips, from Quel'Thalas to Mount Hyjal, so many crazy adventures, and only got a follower of Liadlin by accident, and even the green dragon Delia Sera failed to meet the transformation conditions, especially this kind of low probability, at this time, he can't hesitate!
Looking at the Moon Sacrifice who was trying to breathe with difficulty, and looked at the Moon God Scythe in his hand, Dick gritted his teeth, brought his head closer to Verinde, took off her bat armor, looked at the elf's painful face, and whispered,
"Priest Verinde, your fate has been combined with this scythe, and I can't watch you die, so I'll save you in another way!"
After saying this, the elf's weak palm grabbed Dick's arm, and her eyes contained pleading, obviously, she who had used the luna scythe for a while, could probably guess what Dick's "method" was.
"No... No... Let me... Let me return to the god of the moon... Don't!"
"I'm sorry, but it's too far from Mount Hyjal, and if you die here, your soul will never go back to your hometown!"
Dick stood up, put his left hand on his chest and silently recited a few words of the Holy Light, then grasped the scythe with both hands, closed his eyes, aimed it at Verinde's heart, and stabbed forward!
"Uh... I.. I hate you!!"
"Dick! What did you do! You killed her!"
Madion, who had just stabbed the short sword into the werewolf's heart, saw this scene, his hair exploded, he ran over, and just wanted to reach out and pull out the scythe that pierced the elf's heart, but Dick stopped him.
"Take a good look, Madian, there are many forces in this world that we don't know about, and what is happening in front of your eyes is one of those powers, learn to fear them!"
Madean watched the body of the lifeless elf suddenly move, startling him, and then he saw Verinde's body being manipulated by some kind of will, standing up from the ground, the wounds all over her body were healing rapidly, the mysterious power tore the priestess's clothes apart, and the smooth and perfect body appeared in front of Madian's eyes, causing the boy to let out an exclamation, and then covered his eyes with a blushing face.
In fact, there was nothing to see, because a pale red moonlight shrouded her at this moment.
The boy didn't see the gruesome scene, a large amount of hair, a mane like a beast, grew out of the priestess's body, her beautiful face was also distorted, and finally formed a gray and white wolf head, her body changed rapidly in the abnormal pale red moonlight, and the moment the sickle was grasped in her hand, a werewolf, under Dick's gaze, was born!
The reborn Verinde opened her eyes, her pupils had changed to wolf-like eyes, and she stared at Dick viciously, the teeth in the wolf's kiss sticking out.
"I curse you! Paladin, you have turned me into this ghost! I hate you! I hate you!"
The priestess howled and lunged at Dick, but a second later, she flew back upside down at a faster speed, and the paladin took a robe of her own from her rucksack and threw it at it.
"The werewolf form changed by the Luna Scythe is very special, Lady Vilinde, as long as you find an herb called Moonglow Grass, you can change back to your original form, so if you want to go back to your hometown, it's no problem at all, but it's best to learn to suppress your anger first! I still have important things to do, and I don't have time to dwell on these things with you!"
The paladin's face was as usual, and there was no embarrassment after beating the woman at all,
"If you want revenge, it's up to you, but remember, you found the Luna Scythe, and you caused everything, so you have to take that responsibility, understand?"
Dick took one last look at the luna scythe that Verinder held in his hand, which finally recognized the priestess after she had truly transformed into a werewolf.
The original gray and ugly shape has disappeared, and it has taken on its own brilliance.
The slightly curved branches of the World Tree, entangled with mysterious patterns, stand out from the head of the scythe staff with an exaggerated arc-shaped blade, the sharp blade is exactly like metal, not like the teeth of a wilderness demigod, the entire back of the scythe has an ornate decoration, and behind the blade, there is a wooden crescent moon emblem.
The wooden emblem looked like the most perfect jade, and in the dim depths of the mine, it exuded a mysterious sheen.
One of the 6 forms of the Luna Scythe - Godring's Emissary!
Now, whether Verinde wants to admit it or not, she is already a user of one of the 36 artifacts.
