Chapter 738: The Seven Sages of Black Iron (4/4)
It was a large and magnificent room, surrounded by seven coffins made of black iron.
The moment Jiang Zheng and them walked in, the door slammed shut, and 7 different black iron dwarf souls emerged from the coffin.
They are the Seven Sages of Black Iron.
Hundreds of years ago, the previous King of Black Iron fled and returned to the Darkfurnace City to gather mages to try to enslave the fire elemental and deal with the combined forces of the Copperbeard Dwarves and the Brute Hammer Dwarves.
At that time, in addition to the King of Black Iron, there were also the seven sages of the Dark Furnace Council, and they were also the seven most powerful Black Iron Dwarves at that time, except for the King of Black Iron and the Black Iron Witch Queen.
Now he is known as the "Seven Sages of Black Iron".
Although these guys are dead, because the entire Black Iron Dwarf Race has been cursed by Ragnaros, the seven of them can't escape, their souls are not in peace, and they are imprisoned here, forced to serve the fire elemental creatures and the current Black Iron King.
These seven guys are likely to be at the legendary level during their lifetimes, but they are different after death.
They were strong in life, but now they have no body, only soul, how strong they can be depends on how strong the soul is.
At least in Jiang Zheng's perception, not all souls are at the legendary level.
For example, the warriors and thieves among them are not strong in the first place, and although hundreds of years have passed after death, they have not improved much.
In fact, only the three guys standing on the deepest high platform are at the legendary level, and the remaining four are not at all.
Interestingly, the Black Iron Seven Sages obviously discovered Jiang Zheng's disguise, but they didn't say anything, let alone warn.
When they sensed the strength of Jiang Zai and the others, their faces showed joy and expectation.
"Outsiders, why are you here?"
The "Dumurel" at the top, the leader of the Seven Sages of Black Iron, looked at Jiang Zheng: "Tell me, why are you here!" ”
"For the sake of the Black Iron Dwarves, in order for you to regain your dignity and glory, and for you to be liberated and free." Jiang Zai replied.
"So, are you here to challenge Ragnaros, the Fire Demon King? Look at us, that's what happens when you challenge Ragnaros! ”
Dumurel said, "The curse of the Fire Demon King, let us guard it here!" Anyone who tries to provoke the Fire Demon King and the current Black Iron King must pass our level! For hundreds of years, the number of challengers who died in our hands has exceeded three hundred! More outsiders, not even seeing us! You're strong, so let's get started, outsiders! ”
The trial of the Seven Sages of Black Iron has begun!
Brian stepped back, and Colin was eager to try.
The Seven Sages of Black Iron, that's the legend of the Black Iron Dwarves.
There aren't many Black Iron Dwarves left alive from the Battle of the Three Hammers to the present, and Colin isn't among them anyway.
He was only over two hundred years old, and he was still very young, and he had never seen the Black Iron Seven Sages.
But I've heard of the deeds of the Seven Sages of Black Iron!
He is also a legendary figure among the dwarves, at least in the Black Stone Abyss and the Dark World.
Of course, his real strength is not up to the legend level, and it is a lot worse, but this does not prevent him from trying to challenge.
Colin took out his signature weapon, Liquor Murder Weapon 2.0, and took the initiative to attack.
Three minutes later......
He went back and forth from whence and fell to the ground.
"You, no!"
"Angelel", the warrior of the Black Iron Seven Sages, shook his head at Colin and said, "You still have to practice!" Have the Black Iron Dwarves weakened to this extent? Pathetic and pitiful! ”
A look of disappointment appeared on his face, clearly unhappy with Colin's performance.
Colin's face flushed.
The black iron dwarves are indeed inferior to one generation after another.
Copper whiskers, brute hammers, black iron, during the battle of the three hammers, brute hammer power was the weakest, black iron and copper whiskers were equally divided, with a total population of more than 100,000.
After so many years, the Copperbeard Dwarves have firmly occupied the Iron Fort Fort, and both the population and the territory are much more than before, and the comprehensive strength is getting stronger and stronger.
Although the population of the Hammer Dwarves has been greatly reduced, they have been exposed to shamanic teachings and domesticated griffins, although their overall strength is not as good as that of the past, but their individual strength is stronger.
In particular, the Hammerhammer Griffin Knights, with the same number of people, are far stronger than the Silver Hand Knights, and even no worse than Dalaran's battle mage group, which can be called one of the top ace troops in Azeroth.
What about the Black Iron Dwarves?
After being enslaved by Ragnaros, the population plummeted and now only 50,000 remains.
Although because of Ragnaros's curse, the fire resistance has increased a lot, the fire spell talent is much stronger than before, and the number of black iron mages is more than before, but ......
In addition to the current King of Black Iron, there are really few legendary powerhouses that cannot be found, and their comprehensive strength is not as good as before.
Black Iron ......
Declined!
"I'll do it."
Jiang Zai was not interested in seeing Colin sentimental here, time was pressing, so he stepped forward directly, looked at Dumrel as the leader, and said in a flat voice: "Don't waste time, you guys...... Let's go together! ”
Let's go together!
This is definitely very unceremonious contempt and provocation, but whether it is Brian or Lao Chen, there is a natural expression on their faces.
Even the Seven Sages of the Black Body had no surprises.
The Black Iron Seven Sages have always been arrogant, even in the face of foreign invaders, they insist on fighting one by one, from weak to strong, however......
When sensing the energy fluctuations of the high-level legend level on Jiang Zai's body, Dumurel was very clear:
The seven of them, not to mention dead, are definitely not the opponents of the person in front of them even if they are alive.
It is also unknown whether the seven of them can defeat each other when they join forces.
Jiang Zheng is the most powerful existence they have ever seen, except for Ragnaros, and it is also the existence that is most likely to defeat Ragnaros in hundreds of years-
Although, in their opinion, it is still not enough.
But at least there's hope, isn't it?
"Outsider, Ragnaros is stronger than you think! To challenge him, you must have the strength to surpass the Great of Thorrisen and surpass the strength of the legend! ”
Dumrel said, "So, let's give you the strongest test!" Defeat us, and you'll have the right to challenge Ragnaros! I hope you can defeat us and set us free! The curse of the Fire Demon King, which has tormented us for hundreds of years, should also end! ”
Jiang Zai waved his hand, Brian and Colin stepped back, and Lao Chen also stepped aside, his eyes narrowed into a slit, ready to help.
The Black Iron Seven Sages surrounded them.
Among them were warriors, thieves, mages, priests, and warlocks.
There are three Legendary-level souls among them, and there are also four souls that are close to Legendary-level.
They cooperate tacitly, comparable to brothers.
Their cooperation is not as simple as 1*7=7.
Combined, the seven of them were even more powerful than the Black Iron King back then, comparable to high-level legends.
But, that's not enough.
In front of Jiang Zai, it is not enough to see.
Among all the enemies that Jiang Zheng has encountered so far, several of them have joined forces, and they are not even ranked in the top ten, not even comparable to Sindagosa, not as good as Anubarak, not as good as the commander Volaz, and even less than Alsace, Gugar, and Vandal.
But that's it.
Jiang Zheng didn't even use the Holy Light and Shadow, but only defeated them with a True Yuan worthy of reaching the high-level Legendary level, and with only one hand:
His left hand, all the time behind his back.
And those who know him well know it very well:
Jiang Zai is left-handed, and his left hand is far more powerful, faster, and more powerful than his right hand.
Jiang Zheng only used less than one-fifth of his strength to defeat the Black Iron Seven Sages, and he won neatly, in less than a minute.
This kind of strength made Brian's mouth open wide, Colin dumbfounded, Lao Chen's eyes narrowed almost out of sight, and it also made the Black Iron Seven Sages show satisfaction and expectation on their faces when their souls dissipated.
"Now I believe that you are qualified to challenge the Fire Demon King!"
Dumrel said, "Go ahead, go and challenge it!" Death is our liberation, but not the liberation of my people! Only by killing Ragnaros can they be freed! Young humans, Black Iron and humans have never been friends, but they are not enemies either! Go, Black Iron will remember your kindness! But be careful, the Lord of the Fire Demon is stronger than you think! ”
Jiang Zai nodded, watching the souls of the Black Iron Seven Sages slowly dissipate.
The curse of Ragnaros makes them desperate to stop the invaders until their souls dissipate.
It was the mistake they made back then that made their people slaves of Ragnaros.
They atone for their sins by hundreds of years of their lives and by their deaths.
They are honorable and worthy of praise.
They are well-deserved Black Iron Seven Sages.
"It's time to go."
Jiang Zai looked at the black iron gate that suddenly opened, and said lightly: "Let's go, go and meet Emperor Sorison and Princess Moella!" ”
The Summoner's Tomb, because of the Black Iron Seven Sages, has a strange enchantment.
The existence of this enchantment makes everything that happens in the Summoner's Tomb not known to outsiders, so Emperor Thorrisen doesn't know what's going on here, no one knows.
Walking through the gate, there are two forks in the road.
On the right-hand side, a long passage leads to a large magma field, where dozens of fire elemental creatures are wandering, and at the end is a cave with flames and magma rolling:
It was the entrance to the Molten Heart, the place of the demigods.
Go straight and go through the same lengthy passageway, at the end of which are two gates cast of black iron.
The gate is guarded, and on the other side is the lecture hall, the largest hall in the entire Blackstone Abyss, and it is also the training place of the Black Iron Dwarves, where thousands of Black Iron Dwarves are stationed day and night, forming another line of defense for Emperor Thorrisen the Great.
It's not difficult to get into the lecture hall, but it's not easy to get through the lecture hall, and Colin can't help it.
Fortunately, Jiang Zai has a way.
His method was simple and crude.
He directly summoned the True Qi Long Sword, along the gap in the gate, destroyed the gate mechanism, broke into the steel hall, and then summoned flames, melted part of the steel, and completely closed the gate.
At least for a while, the thousands of Black Iron Dwarves outside don't want to come in.
Then, he turned, ignoring Colin's angry shouts, and walked towards the molten giant not far ahead:
Magmus, the last line of defense of Thorrisen the Great.
