Act V: Nightfall
Locke hadn't studied magic scrolls so much before, but in Locke's ears, magic scrolls have always been inseparable from the word expensive, and in cheap magic scrolls, I'm afraid they are more than three hundred gold coins, and some of the best magic scrolls are probably worth thousands of gold.
Of course, after the Northern Expedition to the Lich King began, the value of magic scrolls plummeted, and some garbage scrolls were sold for a few silver coins without anyone asking for them.
The reason, of course, is that the death of the Blue Dragon King led to the opening of the Demon Net's permissions.
However, Locke didn't think much about it, he carefully observed the surging magic scrolls in the ice, and then took out the Destroyer of Worlds.
[Ice Surge]: Attach the power of ice to your weapon, and each attack will add 35 cold damage and have a chance to reduce the opponent's attack speed by 20%.
Locke slapped the magic scroll directly on the blade of the Destroyer of Worlds, only to see a layer of white light appear on the blade of the Destroyer of Bounds, and then white frost covered the blade. Then the blade of the Destroyer of Worlds danced with a glowing blue light.
The enchantment sent for free was not used in vain, and Locke simply used it directly. After tasting the sweetness, Locke carefully searched the camp and made sure that nothing had been missed, then mounted his Nightmare Horse and ran towards Ambermir.
The golden dusk has sprinkled over the land.
Locke doesn't want to camp in the forest at night, so he has to hurry to Ambermere.
At the legendary speed of the Nightmare Warhorse, it is possible to arrive at Ambermere before dark, and after a night's rest, it is possible to reach Dalaran.
Dalaran is a whirlpool at this moment.
Not only the power of Dalaran's local mage, but also the power of the elves represented by Kael'thas, not to mention that Kel'thugad secretly established a faction of the Cult of the Cursed God in Dalaran, if it is a demon that distorts the void, then Dalaran's calm appearance can be regarded as an undercurrent.
But Locke must go to Dalaran, and in Locke's memory, Dalaran once stored a legendary artifact of the desert troll, and as long as those two weapons were raised, he could craft the desert troll's sword. This is also a very hot weapon to increase the power of the Destroyer of the Worlds.
After all, in the legend of the ancient troll, the person who raised the four holy swords would become the master of the troll.
When Locke attacked Dalaran, he had heard of these things from the mouth of a magician, but to Locke at that time, these were just anecdotes, but now they are different.
The moonlight softly shone down from under the tall trees of the silver pine forest.
A hazy mist hung through the silver pine forest.
Locke rode the Nightmare Horse to Ambermere and soon arrived, but when he arrived in Ambermere, he found that the atmosphere in the town was very strange.
Hundreds of militiamen patrolled the perimeter of the town, including the purple-robed mage Dalaran from time to time, and a roaring bonfire was set up on the ground every few meters. Seeing the slightest movement in the forest, the soldiers drew their bows and arrows.
It was only after seeing Locke riding a brown pony that the soldiers lowered their weapons.
"What the hell is going on here?" Locke pulled over a mage and asked, "Why are so many guards patrolling the outskirts of town?" ”
The mage seemed to recall something terrible, his pale face glanced at Locke beside him, and said in a deep voice: "Undead, a plague broke out in a village not far away, and then the whole village became undead, and launched an attack on the town. ”
"Although the higher-ups tried their best to suppress the news, the news brought from the caravan in the north has turned all the villages in Lordaeron in the north into undead."
"Just now, Ambermir was attacked by the undead, and although they repelled the undead, we already have people infected with the plague."
Locke secretly said in his heart, this plague outbreak is not a good time, this is a few months earlier than the plague outbreak in history, he thought to himself: "Now the time is very short. ”
"How many of these undead are there?" Locke jumped off the Nightmare Warhorse and asked, "I know something about the undead, and I might be able to help you." ”
The mage hesitated for a moment, but soon said in silence under the light of the torches: "Hundreds, I'm afraid this will be thousands, and as the mage of Dalaran observed, those undead began to sweep towards the villages in the north without breaking through Ambermir. ”
"I'm afraid it's going to be thousands."
Locke looked around at Ambermere's guards, and then seriously suggested: "I think that once the number of undead is formed, with Ambermir, I am afraid it will be impossible to resist the undead, and I can't help but hold up the magic cover and hide the entire town, so that it can hold out for a while." ”
Locke knew that in his previous life, Ambermere had adopted this covert magic cover and held out until Sylvanas fell to the city.
Undead
In the early stages of Reign of Chaos, the level of the undead was generally not too high, most of them were composed of skeletons and ghouls, although these undead were not very strong in combat, but due to the control of the Cult of the Damned, the number of these undead remained high. Basically, when the undead form a scale, not only the necromancer, but also some necromancers will be mixed in.
Necromancers are powerful magicians, most of them are at the elite level, and a few are even at the master level.
For example, Kel'thugad.
In the records of the undead, Kel'thugad's combat power was already a heroic beginner during his lifetime, and after his resurrection from the Well of the Sun, he directly became a heroic high-rank, and Kel'thugad is also known as the strongest lich in history.
"I'm afraid I can't make a decision on this matter." The mage said in a hurried tone, "But can you stay and help us?" One look at you knows that you are a powerful knight. ”
Locke said calmly, "I don't have the power to help you defeat thousands of undead."
"And I'm not obligated to help you."
"But the plague spread by the necromancers will not spread to Ambermir for the time being, I assure you."
Locke did not believe that Kel'thugad would not be able to control the plague in Lordaeron if the Cult of the Damned God was not fully prepared.
The undead yearn for destruction.
Necrons have been in the mood of negative energy since birth, they are eager to destroy, and they are also eager to transform more creatures into necromancy, which is their natural nature, and the lower undead have no ability to think, but even they are eager to drink blood. Death Knights and Necromancers play a very important role as hubs in the undead army. (To be continued.) )
