Chapter Seventy-Three: The World After Death
Crash... Crash...
The cold, biting, and heart-chilling feeling made Hugh shiver involuntarily after falling into the water. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 Info's originally groggy consciousness, under the chilling coldness of the heart, allowed Hugh to finally get rid of the feeling of not being able to control himself again.
After falling into the water, Hugh's first sight was a miserable green light, surrounded by endless seaweeds, swaying and swaying with the current, and a thick salty feeling enveloped Hugh, letting Hugh know where he was now.
Nautical mile.
This made Hugh feel very wrong, why was he obviously in the interior of the northwind tundra, and in the blink of an eye he came to the sea, was he teleported or thrown into the sea? However, what made Hugh even more incomprehensible was why he felt the biting cold. Obviously, with his strength, unless it was magic that caused the extremely low temperature, otherwise, the low temperature of nature would not have affected him a long time ago, why did he feel the cold to the bones now?
Just when Hugh was slightly distracted, a feeling of dizziness came into play. Then, Hugh's eyes suddenly became solemn. The coldness in the sea actually began to affect his consciousness, and, in the corner of his eye, the seaweed growing below actually consciously extended towards Hugh and wrapped himself in the past.
Hugh, who was able to regain his mobility, naturally did not let himself continue to wear it under the water, and struggled and swam towards the surface. The bone-chilling sea gave Hugh a very bad feeling, and Hugh swam straight to the surface to avoid accidents if he continued to stay in the water.
【Frost Path】
The cold breath created a layer of ice, although it was very thin, but with the blessing of the spell, this thin layer of ice was enough to bear the rest. Holding himself up with his hands, Hugh was frightened from the sea and stood on the surface. Under his feet, the frost spread indefinitely, and soon, a piece of ice floe more than ten meters wide was created.
The bone-chilling cold dissipated after the sea was depleted, allowing Hugh to begin to examine where he was and where he was.
It was a dim sea, and above the sky, dark clouds covered the sky, obscuring the sun. From time to time, there were bursts of thunder, and at the same time, on the surface of the sea, a thick layer of fog shrouded everything, but the strange thing was that there was a strong wind hanging around, and the waves were undulating compared to the waves, but the wind could not blow away the surrounding fog. On the contrary, in Hugh's opinion, the more the wind blows, the fog around him grows bigger.
"What's going on?" At this time, Hugh's main concern was not his surroundings, but himself. When he got out of the sea, Hugh felt as if something was wrong with him. His body, at this time, actually showed a translucent appearance, but it had a substantial sense of touch and perception.
"It's spirits! How so? Hugh was surprised to find that he was now in a translucent soul state, or rather, a soul materialization state. That is, the common ghosts and resentful spirits, which are undead creatures, translucent bodies, but not complete nothingness, and can even be damaged by physical attacks.
"I'm ...... Is it dead? Hugh muttered to himself, "This is, death?" Still is? No, no, it doesn't seem to be the same as death, here...... This is the Shadow World?! Hugh was taken aback, the world of shadows is the opposite of the real world. Like the emerald dreams that envelop all of Azeroth, this is a world between the unreal and the real. However, the Emerald Dreamland, which was the original backup of the Azeroth ecosystem, the Shadow World, only acted in the cracks of the real world.
This is the fate of all things in the mortal world after death, and here, all kinds of shadow creatures are born. All kinds of ghosts and resentful spirits are the famous products of this world. And like the Death Knights, the mounts they use are also summoned directly from the Shadow World. And this also includes Hugh Acherus's death horse.
"No, no, it's not the Shadow World!" Surprised, Hugh immediately began to observe the world, and soon, Hugh discovered that this world was not the shadow world he had imagined. "But here, where the hell is it?" Hugh looked strangely at this oppressive world, above the dim sky, there was no sunlight. The wind was mixed with the sound of thunder, and above the sea, one wave after another was rolling, and the thick fog still covered the distance. This left Hugh unsure of what kind of world he was in now.
But at the very least, Hugh could be sure that this was not the Shadow World where souls resided, let alone the Four Elemental Planes. Although the activity of the water and air elements in this world far exceeds that of the material world, it is still the breath of death that Hugh is familiar with in this world. Although it is not like the Lich King's power of death, which devours all things, Hugh can feel that this world is cursing travelers who come to this world all the time. If it is the soul that comes to this world, then the curse will slowly wear away the whole soul until it becomes one with the world. And it is the living who come to this world, then, without resistance, the living will be transformed into the undead.
At this point, though, Hugh was sure that he wasn't now in love with the half-plane he knew. Although it should still be in the world of Azeroth, it is by no means the four-element plane and other half-dimensional worlds attached to the real world.
"Hoo ......"
Taking a deep breath, Hugh put his unrealistic thoughts behind for a moment. Now, the most important thing is, how to get him out of this world and back in the material world of Northrend.
It wasn't without hope, because, after relieving, Hugh could feel the connection between the real world and him, because in the real world, his body still existed. Through the connection between soul and body, Hugh could clearly feel that his current body was safe. At least, it wasn't purified by that paladin.
The sudden intruder seemed to have saved his life. This relieved Hugh, as long as his body was not destroyed, then with the connection, then he would eventually find a chance to return to the real world. However, this strange world seems to be interfering with this connection, so that Hugh has never been able to find the coordinates of the real world, and has detached.
"So, what the hell is this world?" After confirming himself and safety, Hugh temporarily suppressed his bad mood and began to look at this world, which has some similarities with the shadow world, but also seems to be connected to the water elemental plane and the air elemental plane. A huge half-plane world that doesn't seem to be smaller than the four elemental planes. And what worries me the most is the erosion of the soul in this world.
Although this erosion has not affected Hugh after he has fully awakened, although he is a spirit, Hugh is still able to mobilize a lot of magic through the connection with his body. In other words, after passing through the hourglass that had overshadowed him, Hugh found that his own magic seemed to have become a little different.
Specifically, you have to wait for Hugh to return to the real world and examine yourself in detail.
[Summon: Acherus Death Horse]
In this world, Hugh could still summon his own mount, and soon, the death horse responded to Hugh's call and appeared in this world. Pulling the reins of the death warhorse, Hugh turned over and rode the death warhorse, found a random direction, rode the death warhorse, and galloped out.
