Chapter 728: Natalie and the Sword of the Dark Empire
The poor human wizard was held in his arms by the Faceless One, and the insanely long tentacles blocked him. The Faceless lowered its slick head, a few tentacles hanging down from under its mouth slowly approaching the human's head.
They nimbly enclosed the shield that protected the head of the human wizard and seemed to be trying to squeeze in!
"Hell, Black Flame! It wants to break through my defenses. It wants to suck my brain out! The human shouted in horror, "The energy in my body won't last long!" ”
"Shut up! I'm listening! I'm listening! ”
The dwarf took out his fire staff, and Locke saw that he methodically unleashed a frost protection enchantment, an earth elemental protection enchantment, a fire elemental protection enchantment, and an arcane protective enchantment for himself
When everything was ready, the dwarf aimed his staff at the human and the faceless.
The valiant ogre had already carried the stone into the Faceless's tentacles, and with great strength, he lifted what could have been a load-bearing pillar, a broken boulder, and smashed it in the tentacles that tried to wrap around him!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
A loud and dull voice rang out in the hall, but the Faceless One was unmoved. It focused on the humans in its arms, attempting to stab the tentacles of its head into the shields of the human wizards.
But suddenly, without knowing where the ogre had hit, the Faceless One wailed as if it was screaming with its soul, and then it temporarily ceased its actions against the human in its arms. A series of long, deep words came out of his mouth, and the target was the ogre.
The ogre, who had been smashed, suddenly dropped the boulder in his hand in confusion, and the tentacles around him instantly swarmed up and pressed him firmly to the ground and covered him.
"Hey! Taste my Black Flame Great Wizard, the power of the five fireballs! ”
"Whoosh!"
Boom!
Five fireballs as hot as the size of a basin flew out one after another, blasting precisely into the Faceless's head. The fireball exploded, and the flames quickly spread over the Faceless One, burning along with the humans below.
"Are you going to burn me?" The human wailed, bracing up the shadow shield on its surface. Although the human said so, the tentacles that held him firmly inside were the most burning.
Unmoved, the Faceless One began to ramp up his study of human wizards
"This guy is a little tricky!" The gnome muttered to himself, ready to cast the spell again. But at this moment, the ogre on the ground wrapped in tentacles suddenly crawled out.
"Bette! Go kill it! ”
The dwarf's command this time did not work very well, and the ogre still walked towards him crookedly, not forgetting to hold the stone in his hand.
"Bate? Bette? Go kill it!? That monster! Oh! Hell, you're rocking me?! The dwarf fled the altar in a flash, and the boulder smashed against the altar with a muffled sound, without hurting the altar in the slightest.
"Looks like I'm going to have to calm you down," the dwarf muttered, and then the staff pointed at the ogre a little, "Baa~!" "A large sheep appeared in the hall, unconsciously walking back and forth.
The dwarf subconsciously breathed a sigh of relief and wiped a handful of sweat that didn't exist on his head. Unbeknownst to him, though, a group of people came out from behind the stone pillar behind him.
"Holy Word, Punishment!"
An ethereal voice appeared behind the gnome, and he jumped in shock, raising his hands to the sky, but it didn't flash anywhere else, as he thought
The dwarf's funny behavior made Locke laugh twice.
The dwarf's reaction was quite fast, and after realizing that he suddenly couldn't communicate the magic in his body, he immediately turned around and respectfully said to Locke, "Hey! Hello there. ”
The human in the flames was still wailing, and the dwarf held his hand and did not let it go. He understood that the people who could appear here in such a situation were not ordinary people, and besides, there was a great priest in the crowd on the other side who used the curse of the prophecy system to cut off his connection with the magic in his body. He has no magic power, he is just a piece of meat on a cutting board, and he kneades people at will.
Of course, this was not easy for Demytia either. If this curse wants to restrict other wizards, the energy it expends cannot be less than the strength of the cursed person itself. As long as the curse is successfully implemented, a huge amount of energy will rush out of her body in an instant, rushing towards her target. Regardless of the eventuality, whether or not she unlocks the dwarf wizard's curse, the part of her power that sustains the curse will not return. It can only be accumulated slowly, and usually, it is good to rest for a few days. But here
"Looks like your friend can hold out for a while," Locke came to the gnome and looked at the guy condescendingly, "Do you want to say something to us?" ”
"Ha, I'm just an adventurer. Adventurers who are employed by them come in and take a look when they hear that there is a treasure here. The dwarf was not blushing and his heart was not beating, and it seemed to be like his instinct.
"What about him?" Locke pointed to the human wizard who was burning in the flames with the Faceless One, but was not shouting at this time. "How did I hear him say, what kind of Darkblade sect are you?"
"That lord over there! Can you please save me from this thing's tentacles first? Before the dwarf could speak, the human couldn't wait, after all, the faceless man above his head had been gnawing on the energy shield that was not far from his scalp, and the magic power in his body had been exhausted
"We are Bishop Natalie Serin's apprentices, and we are here to fulfill the unfulfilled will of our mentor!" The man pleaded, "We set up the Blade of Darkness to find out what kind of secret the weapon was in the Bishop's possession!" ”
"Natalie Serling?" Demitea walked out with a frown, and she asked in a cold voice, "How can you prove that you are her apprentice?" ”
"Can you please let me out first? Grown-ups! Oh no! My shield is breaking! The humans cried out in horror, but Demetia didn't let Locke get him out. She raised her hand to the man in the Faceless's arms, and the shadow shield converged on his body once more, reopening the Faceless's hands out.
"Honestly, there's a limit to my patience." Demithia had a rare cold face, and she threatened, "Otherwise, I'll drain the energy covering your body immediately!" ”
"Don't, don't! Please don't! I say! I say! The human anxiously replied, "But please leave me alone!" Please swear in the name of the Light! ”
"I promise you, but if what you say is different from what I know, then I'd love to see you sucked out of your brain by this monster!" Demytia threatened a few times, then raised his hand behind his back and shook it back and forth to stop Locke from making any moves. The guards also surrounded the gnome mages, waiting for Locke's orders.
"In the First Orc War, Bishop Natalie Sellin obtained a dagger from the Orcs. This dagger is capable of manipulating shadow powers and using them, and Bishop Natalie Serin was meant to destroy it. But on that day, in the eyes of all of us, the Bishop, who had picked up the dagger, suddenly told us that it was called Saratas! ”
"Then the Bishop said something that none of us can forget"
"How is it possible for a person to defeat a force she does not understand?" Demithia made up this sentence, and the human said again and again, "Yes, yes, yes! That's it! ”
"Stormwind has long since been destroyed, and we followed Bishop Natalie to Lordaeron to begin a formal study of the Shadow Forces. This has been the result of many people's eyes, who believe that this power is an evil force used by orcs, and should not be widely spread among humans. If it weren't for Archbishop Fao's affirmation of Bishop Natalie's approach, perhaps the archwizards of Kenrito would have interfered with our actions long ago. ”
"Please keep this monster's mouth away from me, okay? Please, Priest! ”
Demytia once again replenished a shadow power, opening the tentacles of the Faceless One, and the burning flame disappeared at this moment.
"The Second Orc War has begun, and by that time we have been able to use shadow magic extensively in the service of the Alliance. In fact, the second war was divided into two parts, with Sir Lothar leading the Coalition army to fight the Orcs on the bright side. And in the shadows, it's the people of us, led by Bishop Natalie, who use the power of the shadows to fight in the shadows that the Alliance Kingdom can't see! ”
"We kill the orcs lurking among us, sabotage the spies, their actions to undermine the unity of the Alliance! until the end of the war"
"What else?" Demitian asked coldly, "How did Bishop Natalie die?" If you were a cultivator of the Shadow Power, you should know that its evil in the shadows was far beyond the prediction of ordinary people! ”
"Alas, she died as rumored," the human finally told the truth of the matter, "this evil dagger will continue to erode the minds of the bearer and those around him, and it will disintegrate the mental defenses of everyone who comes into contact with it with a whisper."
"Bishop Natalie is noble, and although she is surrounded by whispers all day long, her intentions are noble. Her understanding of the role of the dagger was to gain a wealth of knowledge that could not be obtained from other sources. But some of us have sunk too deep in the shadows and abandoned the Light altogether. Although the Bishop reminded them to be cautious in the use of this uncontrollable force, they were questioned as wind on their ears."
"So you killed Bishop Natalie?" Locke asked in a deep voice, he didn't know anything about these things, but he was full of affection for the Shadow Priest's bishop. This is a man similar to the High Lord Mograini.
"You can't understand the feeling of the dagger whispering in your ear, it hits the greed of my heart every time, and magnifies it countless times" The human no longer struggled, allowing the Faceless One to hold himself firmly in his arms, "but I want to make it clear that it was not me who did it, it was Fatheon and the others below. I was just forced by them to bucket the corpse a few times, I want to live I have no choice"
