Chapter 25: Mage, what kind of boss are you?
"I think you need help." Karl walked out of the shadows, and with a slight pick of the Fang Tian Painting Halberd in his hand, a demon was directly cut in half by the sharp moon blade, and the demon's body was eroded by the strong holy light energy, as if it was burned in the sun, and it turned into ashes in less than two seconds, floating in the air.
"Who are you?" Instead of being surprised by the arrival of a reinforcement, Lothar used his eyes to warn the soldiers carefully.
Carl ignored it, and he wouldn't trust the guy who suddenly appeared with an unknown friend or foe. Well, let the facts do the talking.
The starfall infused with holy light emitted a golden light, and Karl was bathed in it as if he had descended from the heavens.
Lothar and his soldiers were already stunned, was this the Holy Light? How could there be such a strong and pure holy light, they watched the god-like Karl move, the strange weapon in his hand that also shone brightly kept flying in the air, they could only see the light slicing through the room like lightning, and then one by one the demons were broken, pierced, and cut in half
"Carl Sunset, my name." Karl stood in the center of the room, Starfall in his hand, and the ashes of the demons purified by the light fell from the sky like snow, piling up on the ground.
From the time Carl came in to the time Carl eliminated all the dozens of demons, it only took a few minutes. Lothar was the first to come back to her senses, took a deep breath to relieve the shock in her heart, and then said solemnly: "Anduin Lothar, thank you very much for your help. ”
Karl bowed to him slightly, "Sir Lothar, I have long known your great name. Now, though, we should have more important things to do, and believe me, sir, I have the same purpose as you. ”
Lothar nodded, and took the lead in leading the soldiers to continue running forward, and Karl smiled helplessly when he saw this, and slowly followed.
At the top of the tower, in the center of a large cavern, where Medivan's tall figure stood. He looked at Khadgar and Garona, who jumped in:
"Hello, my apprentice," the Astral Mage said with a smile, his beard burning with flames.
"Hello, Miss Ambassador. I've been waiting for you for a long time. ”
Khadgar's eyes were full of sadness as he looked at the teacher he once admired: "Why? Teacher, why are you doing this? ”
Medivan laughed, "Why? From the day this body began to conceive in this world, it was all predestined, and there was no reason. ”
"Teacher, I think that no matter what happens to you, there will always be a way to solve it." Khadgar continued to tease his teacher, and Garona had gently disappeared from view.
"Of course it will be solved!" Medivan smiled evilly, "Everything is going according to plan. The orcs will exterminate the human race, and I, through their warlock chieftain Gul'dan, will manipulate them. When everything is arranged, I will lead these ugly bastards into the tomb of Sargeras, which has been lost in the river of time. It has enchantment protection, and demons and people from this world can't enter it, but unfortunately it can't guard against orcs from another world. My body will be set free, and I will finally be freed from this disobedient body and weakened soul, and use the eternal flame to bestow on the world the destruction it deserves! ”
"Sargeras!"
"Yes and no," said the astral mage, "I am—I hid inside Egwene after she killed me, infecting every cell in her womb with my dark soul. I was there long before she was united with the human mage. Medivan's dark twins, perfectly lurk beneath his exterior. ”
"Egwene needed a tool to play with power, and then I was manipulated by the demon to become another tool. Even the council sees me only as their weapon against demons. So there's nothing surprising to me, I'm nothing but a collection of tools. ”
Medivan's face became more and more frantic, "This self-righteous woman never thought that a child's body could withstand the great power of Tirisfa, let alone the endless clash of light and darkness in his soul. ”
"So when his power truly awakened, you took control of him and began your evil plan of destruction?" Khadgar continued his words.
"Oh, that's smart." Medivan smirked and said, "If you are willing to take refuge in me, I can mercifully grant more powerful spells and powers." ”
"Of course," Khadgar pretended, as Garona appeared behind Medivan and raised her dagger. "Impossible!"
Medivan didn't look back, then waved her hand back, and a powerful spell force slammed straight into the orc's face, knocking her flying and falling to the ground.
Khadgar cursed to himself and began to cast spells with both hands.
- But Medivan was quicker than he was, and turned back and held out a hand like a talon to him. Suddenly, Khadgar felt the air around him solidify into an invisible sack, enveloping him, tying his hands and feet tightly, unable to move. He opened his mouth to scream, only to find that his voice seemed to be covered by his mouth, dull and distant.
Mediven held up his other hand, and the pain immediately spread through Khadgar's body, and every inch of his joints seemed to be driven into the boiling red nails. The intense feeling quickly settled down and turned into a dull ache that flickered from time to time. He felt his torso stiffen, flesh drying and shrinking, wriggling on his skeleton. The organic matter in the body seems to have been drained, leaving only a wrinkled outer skin. His magic seemed to have been lost along with it, and his body was deprived of the ability to cast spells, unable to even gather the minimum amount of energy. At the moment he was like a container that had been emptied.
In fact, the spell only lasted for a short moment, and as soon as Medivan withdrew his hand, Cad fell to the ground, squeezing out the last trace of air in his chest when he hit the ground, and kicked up a cloud of dust.
Ignoring her pain, Garona screamed and rushed straight at Medivan with her dagger. Medivan didn't dodge, he stretched out his left hand, and Garona was lifted up by the forehead as if she had sent it to the door. Bursts of yellow-green light flickered between him.
"Poor Poor Garona," said Medivan, "I even thought at one point that your contradictory life would make you the only one who understands my experiences and feelings. I think you'll understand the importance of being in charge of your own destiny. But at the end of the day, you're still like everyone else, right? ”
The big-eyed orcs were completely defenseless, and could only let tears of despair flow down.
"Let me show you my world, Garona," Medivan said, "to show you my pain and struggle, confusion and despair. Let them be seared in your mind forever. From now on, you will never know who you are serving and why. You will never have peace when you die. ”
Garona wanted to scream, but a sudden burst of intense light from Medivan's palm enveloped her face, forcing her screams back.
Garona fell limply forward, tears soaking the ground. She struggled to get up, but fell again. Her eyes were wide and wild, and tears made her breath short and confused. Madivon stood in front of her and laughed maniacally.
A strong light shot at Medivan, who dodged in embarrassment, but had to stop laughing proudly.
"Anduin Lothar!" Medivan turned around just in time to see Lothar and Carl rushing into the cave, his face seemed to soften, "You're here too?" You're going to be against me, too? ”
"Turn back, Mad," Lothar cried out, a glimmer of pain in his eyes, "while all else is salvageable, take it, my friend." ”
"Friends?" Medivan pointed his hand at Lothar, "Only those who support you when you need them most are true friends, then, friend, help me kill these people and prove that your words are not false." ”
The energy in Medivan's hand shot out towards Lothar, and when he was about to hit Lothar, a burst of golden light protected Lothar, and the energy crashed into the golden light, and the two dissipated together.
"Holy Light?!" Medivan was taken aback, "It's you?!" He looked at Carl, who was carrying Starfall on his side, with anger, surprise, and fear in his eyes.
