Act Forty-Eight: The Valley of the Hearth and the Lich VIII

This is the illusion, a subspace of the Emerald Dream, when the Nightmare King invaded the Emerald Dream, in order to continue to increase his power, he not only corrupted the dream of the Green Dragon Gate, but also invaded the dream of all creatures in Azeroth.

Once someone enters the nightmare and panics, then the Nightmare King's power will be boosted.

This is also the green dragon's ability to observe the vague future from the Nightmare King's dreams.

For example, Locke's place is Future, and he walks up to Bridget, the future leader of the Scarlet Crusade, who is now hiding in a corner and crying.

"Knock Knock"

Behind Locke came the sound of ghouls banging on the castle gates, but it was clear that the gates of the castle in Hearthvale were not easy to breach, at least not for a short time.

"Think about it, isn't the tragic picture of your father's death a little blurry?" Locke reminds Bridget that at least in this trial illusion, if she can get the help of an elite paladin, then the chances of victory will be greatly increased.

Bridget raised her head, her face still had red tears, and she hugged her knees like a little girl and said, "Is this really a dream?" ”

Locke was right, Bridget had just recalled the memories of her father's death, but those memories that should have been unforgettable had now disappeared without a trace, and she tentatively asked Locke, "But reason tells me that this is reality?" ”

Locke shook his head slowly, with incomparable firmness in his eyes, and he said cautiously: "This is not the reality, but the future. ”

"This is also the scenario you will face, your father died tragically in front of you, and you can't do anything about it." Locke's voice was like a sharp blade, inserted into Bridget's body, her face instantly turned snow-white, and then Locke's rapid voice came from her ears.

"Think about it, if your previous memories are still practicing martial arts in the military camp in Northern Lordaeron, why did you suddenly come to the Valley of the Hearth, and where did that blank memory go?"

Locke said these words calmly, this is also the weakness of the Nightmare King, although he can see everything in people's memories, he can never make memories that humans don't have at all.

Bridget was slightly stunned, she stood up and took out a heavy shackle from her body, with a hint of fierceness in her eyes, like a Valkyrie on the battlefield.

"Come with me, time is running out, if the undead kill us in our dreams, our souls in reality will be annihilated."

Locke was already walking towards the rooftop above the castle, and Bridget watched Locke's determined back, followed by him.

It's a fight, and she has to give it her all.

…………

The frenzied wind polluted the entire Lordaeron region with a fishy stench. Looking down from above, Locke saw that the entire Valley of the Hearths was now in the midst of the destruction of the undead legions. The raging undead killed all living creatures on the ground, not just humans hiding in the ruins, but also the lush grass that grew on the ground.

The rapid withering of these resurrected plants let Locke know that these undead would probably kill Locke and Bridget at any cost.

"If you told you that I'm also a Death Knight, would you still help me?" Locke said in a low and hoarse voice, the long hair on his head had gradually turned white, his voice had gradually become hoarse, and the weapon in his hand was also attached to a layer of runic weapons.

Brigitte looked at Locke in front of her with a complicated expression, she didn't know where to get a set of Scarlet Crusader full-body plate armor suits, leaving only a pair of eyes in the helmet made of steel.

There was a hint of fear and excitement in those bright eyes.

Maybe it's time to purify a Death Knight?

But soon Bridget shook her head, she knew that the thoughts that remained in her brain were not her own thoughts at all, at least the thoughts that would kill Locke should no longer exist.

The remnants of instinctive memories in her brain were quickly suppressed by Bridget, and she casually said, "May the Light be with you, sir." ”

"I figured it out, you're right, it's all a plan of the Cult of the Damned, and we should work together to defeat the enemy."

Locke nodded, though he wasn't sure if Bridget would be encroached upon by the Scarlet Crusader thoughts he remembered, but now he felt that everything was fine.

Things are going very well.

There were at least hundreds of gargoyles hovering in the sky, and these constructs didn't attack Locke in the first place, so I think the lich Les Frost might have something to talk to about himself.

"You're exactly what I planned." Les walked in through the gates of the Valley of the Hearth, and under the premise that the undead scourge was absolutely dominant, it certainly had the courage to appear in front of Locke, and it spewed a series of cold breaths from its mouth, and its body was pulsing with dark energy, and the blue energy fire burned in the lich's eyes.

"The Lich King appreciates you, after I told him the plan went well. Les said softly: "Although this is an illusion, this is a spiritual world after all, and once it is a spiritual world, my master, the Lich King, will be able to know everything that exists in it." ”

"Locke, I think you know very well that you can't fight the Lich King."

Locke let out a barrage of laughs, summoned from the ghouls in front of him, and summoned a few walking corpses and skeletons at random, these low-level undead armies blocked the main passage of the castle in Hearthvale.

After doing all this, Locke said slowly, "Bridget, do you see, this lich who has transformed himself into a skeleton of bones is about to voluntarily turn into dead people to serve the Lich King. ”

"Answer me, will you become a dead man?"

Bridget shook her head, she tightened her grip on the shackles, and after realizing that she seemed to be being pulled into a dream, her hidden warrior spirit was ready to move, and in the church long ago, Bridget was very fond of fighting on the battlefield like men.

Now it's finally your turn.

"I will build the Scarlet Crusade, and I will keep my father from dying." Bridget said to Locke in front of him in a firm tone, "So what we have to do now is to break free from this illusion?" ”

Locke nodded, and then he heard the voice of the lich Les Frostwhisper, "It's a shame that you have chosen the path of death. ”

"On this path, you can only find death and cold." (To be continued.) )
