Chapter 25: The Lord of the Dead

Su Chen didn't know what method this old man named Les used to return to the north faster than himself and Iluthia, and also transformed into a lich and came to the Alterac Mountains to intercept him.

However, in the face of the increasing number of undead, he can no longer use the early warning of the brain to dodge, and although the dagger in his hand is sharp, it is not suitable for the hordes of undead on the other side.

Medirri's figure had quietly vanished, but unless she could fly or escape, it would be difficult for her to escape from the encirclement of the undead.

After attacking the old man in vain, several spellbreakers had to face the approaching undead, but they were born to restrain the mage, and they were also more than capable in the face of this dense undead, at least in terms of weapons.

The delicate moonblade can be thrown and retracted, making it a useful weapon for both melee and ranged magic, but it is not as useful as the usual heavy sword when facing these armies of the undead.

"Get out!" Several spellbreakers saw that the number of undead was increasing, and the lich had a powerful bone shield to defend against, but they quickly made a decision.

Of course, a large part of the reason may be that the previous battle with Su Chen and Medierli consumed too much of their energy.

With the defensive power of the elven armor, the attacks of these undead did not have much effect on them, so it was still a good chance to force the encirclement of these clumsy undead.

"Hehe, I'd like to see how many undead you can kill, even if you're cast of iron, you can be gnawed by these ghouls." The old man grinned.

I saw that he just waved his hand slightly, and those undead who were originally slow suddenly became swift, and many skeletons and zombies could even jump forward and bite them.

Although several spellbreakers were strong, they lacked range attacks, and were soon besieged by a large number of skeletons and zombies, many of which had already pounced on them to gnaw, even if they could not destroy the defense of their armor for a while, but they were pounced on by more and more zombies, but they were unable to move at all, and were finally stacked into several small hills made of zombies and golems.

Su Chen couldn't help but feel a little chill in his heart, but this old man gave full play to the characteristics of the undead who were not afraid of life and death, and these large armies of the undead were really able to restrain these thieves with high dodge ability like Spellbreaker and Medirli.

"Hehe, I've finally solved these damn Dalaran minions, and it's up to you to do it next." The old man smiled, but the soul fire that was jumping endlessly turned to Su Chen and Iluxia.

"The ones I hate the most in this world are those fellows in Dalaran, followed by the self-proclaimed righteous paladins." As he spoke, the old man stretched out the rotten wooden staff in his hand and pointed at Su Chen, and a black ball as dark as substance quickly condensed at the tip of the wooden staff.

"Uncle, he's not a bad guy, he saved me from the lake and helped me block those law breakers." Iluxia, who had been behind Su Chen during the previous battle with the Spellbreaker, suddenly stood in front of him, frowned, and tried to dissuade him.

"I know, the paladin is a notoriously good man, so I was relieved to let you go with him, but ...... You should know that the Barov family has already decided to join the Cult of the Damned, and that Prince Arthas has come to Keldaron and personally bestowed on us the power of eternal life, and we are already destined to be a match for the paladins. The old man said with a sarcastic smile on his face: "Ilucia, kill him, just use the soul of this paladin to exchange with the master for the power of eternal life." ”

"I ...... I can't, he just saved me! Illucia's face changed, and finally she clenched her slender fist lightly and said quite resolutely.

"Elucia, don't you obey the family's arrangement!" A chill ran through the old man's hoarse voice.

"I'm willing to sacrifice for the sake of my family, but ...... I don't want to be like you and become an undead, such an eternal life...... I don't want to. Illucia said very hard, almost the first time she was so old that she had said three words of reluctance.

Su Chen couldn't help frowning, and looked at her sideways with a rather complicated mood, if she didn't want to become an undead, wouldn't the Psychic Academy be missing a BOSS, would she be considered to change the historical course of this world?

"Boom...... Originally, I only gave you a chance because you saved me with your heart, and since you don't want to cherish it, you can only refine you into an undead puppet, just like your parents. The old man grinned.

"My parents? What's wrong with them? Ilucia asked in surprise.

"That is a gift from the Prince of Arthas to them for eternal life, and of course all their future will belong to the Lich King, including all their wealth and souls!"

"You killed my parents?!" Elucia's face turned pale in an instant, she knew how much her father valued wealth, and it would be more difficult for him to give up all his possessions than to kill him.

"Death is just a ritual, it's a ritual of rebirth, Ilucia, you have a good talent for magic, and if you transform into an undead, you're definitely a powerful ......," the old man said proudly, and suddenly his body retreated.

In its original place, a jet-black dagger appeared.

Rather than fleeing in stealth, Medirri was always looking for an opportunity to kill the lich.

"Beautiful elven thief, I am waiting for you to come, and your stealth is invisible in my eyes." The old man's strange laughter rang out again.

At the same time, a gigantic gargoyle descended into the sky, its sharp claws grabbing at Medirri, who had just revealed her form.

"Could this gargoyle be able to detect stealth?" Su Chen's heart moved.

As a result, Medirri's advantage was completely lost, and she was soon surrounded by the undead, and she had to be constantly on guard against the attacks of the gargoyles and the powerful lich in the air.

A huge fireball soon blasted into the lich suspended in the dark night sky, and it was Elucia's final angry attack.

"I've taught you your magic, do you think you can hurt me with your strength?" The old man sneered and easily flashed the fireball, and at the same time, a large number of undead also rushed towards Illusia and Su Chen.

"Even if I die with you, I won't become your undead puppet!" Elothia chanted a strange incantation at a rapid pace, and her hands began to seal on her chest.

A huge cold current spread rapidly from her body to all directions, and the snowflakes in the wind suddenly became dense and large, and even began to appear dense hail.

"Blizzard? Your talent is really good, and you can even master this powerful ice spell, but you forgot that I was called Les Frost back then, and what I was best at was frost magic! The old man smiled strangely, and just reached out and pointed forward, and a large amount of ice and snow quickly enveloped Elucia, not only interrupting the magic she was unleashing, but even freezing her almost completely.

"It's your turn, paladin, let me see if your so-called holy light can save you from the sea of the undead, and then I will torture your soul and ...... Your body. ”

The wind and snow in the sky dissipated, and the old man smiled and pointed at Su Chen with the rotten wooden staff again.

"I'm sorry, I'm in a hurry now, so I won't need the Holy Light for the time being." Su Chen smiled and untied the sword box that had been carrying his back.

The wooden sword case exploded suddenly, and Frost Sorrow, which he hadn't seen for a long time, was once again in his hand.

"It's a good feeling......"

Su Chen didn't know why he felt this way.

However, when the sorrow of frost appeared, the spirits of the dead all over the mountains immediately froze, and some even fell directly to the ground, as if facing the king!

"It's so dark, you ......"

The old man's words were not finished, for the sorrow of frost had reached his forehead.

"You can't kill me, I've become a lich, as long as the life box is not destroyed, I will never die." The old man tried to struggle, but found that he could not move in the slightest in the face of this hideous sword.

Just like the ordinary undead around me.

"Really...... Immortal? Even the Lich King wouldn't dare say such a thing. Su Chen sneered.

The frost sorrow in his hand flashed silently, and a black light flashed.

Although he did not activate the Frostmourn in his hand, the sword was still capable of devouring and imprisoning the souls of the dead.

If there is no soul, even if it is resurrected, it is not oneself for a long time.
