It wasn't surprising that Ainan recognized Kel'thugad, the first person he had ever come into contact with who could be called a true mage, but it was surprising that K'Elthugad could recognize Ainan.

"I remember you, you were the apprentice, you were still alive."

After identifying Ainam, Kel'thugad was shocked, he himself relied on countless methods, endured all kinds of hardships, and tortured himself to the point that he was not a ghost before dragging his crippled body to survive to this day.

It is not accurate to say that he is alive, Kel'thugad's original body has long been dead, he has no breathing, no heartbeat, his body temperature is cold, there is no blood in his body, his internal organs have rotted into scum many years ago, and the only thing that can be kept is just a piece of skin. He looked like a human being, but in fact, when he lifted the skin, he was just a dry bone inside.

On the other hand, Ainan is not like Kel'thugad, who only has a layer of foolish skin on the outside, his body has a temperature and can breathe, and he knows at a glance that he is a real living person.

When Kel'thugad and Ainan first met in the Sadol River, Ainan was just a small magic apprentice, and Kel'thugad had already become a high mage. Supposedly, Kel'thugad has lived so miserably, there is no reason why Ainan can be so comfortable.

What a Kel'thugad!

Kel'thugad's reaction led Ainan to confirm his identity, and the question became: how did Kel'thugad survive hundreds of thousands of years since the farewell of the Sadol River?

You must know that not everyone can be dragged into the endless torrent of time by the bronze dragon, and not everyone can get out of the torrent of time.

"Maybe we should have a good talk."

Ainan looked at Kel'thugad, who nodded, "I think so." ”

The place where the two met was not far from the Dragonbone Wilderness, where it was easy for the dragon to detect the disturbance, and both Ainan and Kel'thugad had their own agendas, and neither of them was willing to make a noise.

If it is said that it is a newcomer to Northrend Ainam, then Kel'thugad has already stepped on the ground. He led Ainan around and then came to a beach, and after making a gesture to Ainan, he jumped into the sea.

It's not that Kel'thugad couldn't figure out how to jump into the sea, but that he built his nest in the sea - somewhere on the shallow continental shelf there was a cave in the sea that was slanting upwards, and as long as he swam past the first section, the sea would not be able to flood in as the ground in the cave rose.

It's a good place, how did Kel'thugad discover it?

Ainan surveyed everything inside the cave, and was greeted by a stomach-surging scene—the cave was filled with the corpses of creatures large and small, decomposed limbs, wriggling entrails in vessels filled with unknown liquids, half-decomposed corpses...... and a series of things that challenge people's nerves, so it's not terrifying, it's like coming to hell.

As he led Aynan deeper into the cave, Kel'thugad proudly asked, "How is my lab?" ”

It was like a child who wants to praise - praise me, praise me loudly, everything here is my masterpiece.

It's a pity that Kel'thugad met the incomprehensible Ainan, who did not express exclamation such as exclamation as he wished, but frowned with a little disgust: "If this is all your experiment, then I can only say that you have gone astray." ”

As a magician, Kel'thugad can tolerate the white eyes of others, the incomprehension of others, and even the scolding of others, he doesn't care, but he can't bear to have his magic path denied. Before Ainan could finish speaking, Kel'thugad turned around and roared angrily, "Shut up, boy. ”

Ignoring Kel'thugad's anger, Ainan pointed around: "Look at these, tsk......"

"What's wrong with these?" Kel'thugad could not stand the denial of his own efforts, "Don't look at them with your vulgar eyes, sooner or later the world will realize their greatness." You mortals don't understand me at all, and you only spend your days daydreaming about the day when you can become stronger, instead of spending your energy on something more meaningful. ”

"Look at these treasures of mine, you think they're disgusting, I don't!"

Speaking of his experiments, Kel'thugad became excited: "Humans have too many deficiencies in themselves, and if they enter the water, they will drown, but fish and sea beasts will not; The running speed is too slow, the endurance is not durable enough, the minions are not sharp enough, and the only way to fight the enemy when you lose your weapon is to lie on your stomach with your fist, but the wolves and bears and other wild beasts in the mountains and forests cannot; They can't fly, but birds can; There is only one in a million people who can sense the elements of magic, but extraordinary races such as dragons are born with the ability to use magic; Also, human hands and feet cannot grow back after being cut off, but some lizards and small insects have the ability to regenerate severed limbs; The most important point is that the lifespan of human beings is too short, elves and dragons can live for thousands of years, and humans only have a short hundred years. ”

"You see, human beings have so many weaknesses, human beings are so fragile, human beings have such a short lifespan, why don't we change him?"

Ainan took a small step back, and mentioned that his experiments were Kel'thugard with the attitude of a scientific madman, who was synonymous with madness in the eyes of most people.

Everyone's brain circuits are different, and it's normal not to be understood.

In layman's terms, Kel'thugad conducts biological experiments, and his purpose is to incorporate the strengths of other species into the human body and make up for what he perceives to be the weaknesses of humans. Kel'thugad's experiment was simply genetic modification, but he used magic rather than technology.

I remember that the richest man on the lid on the little blue star once said that the next richest man in the world will be born in the field of biology.

Whether it's the magical world of Azeroth or the technological world of the little blue star, they are all studying biotechnology. Of course, due to some misconceptions, most people resist this practice of transforming their bodies by external forces.

Ainan pursed his lips and asked, "Then what have you achieved?" ”

Speaking of the results, Kel'thugad was like an eggplant beaten in frost, drooping his head, losing his previous strength: "I have done countless experiments, and there are many finished products, but none of them meet my requirements. ”

After hundreds of thousands of years of research, Ainan can only say...... Uh, well, all he can say is that Kel'thugad really has perseverance. As for why Kel'thugad became like this, nonsense, if he doesn't make himself an undead, he will be rotten to scum, and he can still be alive?

Speaking of becoming an undead, Ainan remembered that Kel'thugad had changed a book of notes on spiritism, and he was wondering if he would make a lich or something, but he didn't expect it to be a prophecy.

Isn't Kel'thugad a lich now?

Caught in his memory, Ainan suddenly found that the cave was quiet, and when he came back to his senses, he saw Kel'thugad staring at him with a feverish expression.

"I failed, but you must have succeeded, otherwise how could you have survived so long. Tell me how you did it? ”

Ainam scratched his head, as if Kel'thugad had misunderstood something.
