Chapter 8: The Secret Answer II
There was silence in the snow-capped mountains of Alterac, and except for the howling wind and snow, all other sounds were drowned out by the sound of "whirring".
The icy snowflakes hit Locke's face, then melted into snow and melted on Locke's face, and then fell to the ground.
It was very calm all around him, except for the frenzied sound of wind and snow. There was nothing else dynamic, except of course the hair on the dead snowman would flutter in the wind, but soon the snow-white body hair stopped shaking as it formed ice crystals.
"Pretending to be a god or something, do you want me to arrest you myself?" Locke's voice echoed in the snowy mountains, but soon only Locke's echoes were heard in the snowy mountains.
"Boom la la la~" The frenzied wind and snow quickly annihilated Locke's voice, and in thousands of years, this wind and snow has so annihilated everyone's traces.
Locke stationed the destroyer of all worlds, condensed his left hand into a purple ball of light, and then the shadow orb turned into three shadow rays of light, injected into the land in front of Locke, and soon, a magic array appeared in front of Locke, and a bloodstained hand stretched out from the land.
This is exactly what ghouls.
Locke snorted coldly, the surrounding environment was too normal, whether it was the frenzied wind and snow, or the blood that invaded the snow, it was too normal.
However, there is one thing that makes Locke suspicious, and that is that the snowman itself is a social creature, and after killing a snowman, the smell of blood will stimulate the surrounding snowmen to attack the invaders.
But that didn't happen now, and it was as if there had never been any killing of the snowman.
It's almost like a deliberately created sense of tranquility.
Knock knock.
Locke's heart began to beat violently, and suddenly, he felt the power in his body draining away.
He raised his hand and found that brown patterns had formed on his arms, and those brown patterns climbed up Locke's skin little by little, and soon spread to Locke's whole body.
"You are cursed with Weakness, your All Stats are reduced by 5, your Movement Speed is reduced by 20%, and your Attack Speed is reduced by 20%"
Locke closed his eyes slightly, his hands gripping the hilt of the Destroyer of Worlds' sword tightly. In the snowy mountains, those cold winds can bring people different feelings, and with the curse of debilitation, they can make people extremely weak.
He sniffed the air, then said slowly, "The smell of the living." ”
The ghoul lay on the ground, sniffing the air hard. Telepathically, the ghoul transmits the surrounding human location to Locke's brain.
5 people, Locke identified the surrounding enemies in his mind.
He snapped open his eyes and held out his hand. Shadow power lingered in Locke's palm, and he whispered softly into the wind and snow not far away, "Death Grip." ”
A lilac dark giant hand emerged from the void and shot into the wind and snow not far away.
"Ding!"
With a soft sound, Locke's Death Grip turned into dust and quickly disappeared into the snowstorm.
Bursts of applause appeared in the wind and snow, and then a man in a black robe came out of the wind and snow, with two daggers at his waist.
"Yes, it's really powerful, it's a death knight, I thought this kind of profession was just a story of deceiving children in the story of the Cult of the Damned."
The man walked out of the snow and stood in front of Locke, and he casually threw the stone in his hand to the ground: "There is no such thing as a death knight, and I also used a spell to invalidate my arcane orb." ”
"You know, this is the best magic item that can only be bought with 100 gold coins in Lordaeron's Royal City."
Locke carefully looked at the middle-aged man in front of him, he was wearing brown leather armor, a scar on his face crossed his right eye, and he pulled out the two daggers from his waist with both hands.
There is no doubt that this is an elite peak thief, but if it is just an elite peak thief, Locke can easily deal with it.
But there were five of them.
Out of the wind and snow appeared one warlock and three thieves in turn. They are the strength of the elite mid-level to the elite peak, and in it, Locke also found an acquaintance.
That's the woman who howled and cried in Talenmir yesterday.
"You are...... That caravan? Locke looked closely at the woman in the black bodysuit, and the warlock girl in the violet robes.
"Yes, but we weren't originally targeting you, and after getting the information yesterday, we decided to deal with you today, and then go on a mission." The middle-aged man in the lead said, "In addition, I will tell you that my name is Kojie, and after I go to hell, at least remember my name." ”
Locke snorted coldly and summoned the ghoul and fire elemental to his side, then carefully observed the movement around him. The thieves and warlocks began to scatter and surround him, and it was clear that this was a team that had been working together for a long time.
"Don't be ashamed," Locke said softly, raising the Destroyer of Worlds in his hand, "You are the Syndicate??" So the master behind it is the nobles of Alterac?? ”
"Dead people don't need answers." From behind Locke came a delicate female voice, a masked thief rushing towards Locke at a rapid speed.
The girl was dressed in tights, and the silver sword in her hand shimmered in the wind and snow, and she stabbed Locke with the sword in her hand.
Locke didn't hesitate to start the ice body, only to see a thin layer of frost covering Locke's surface, covering all of Locke's skin.

The girl's long sword stabbed on Locke's armor and burst into a brilliant spark, but Locke was not hurt at all, Locke raised the Destroyer of Worlds in his hand and slashed at the girl in front of him.
However, unlike Locke's imagination of the blood-spattered scene, the other two thieves attacked with the footsteps that forced Locke to back off.
This combination is very well coordinated, and even Locke cannot win easily.
What's more, on the side, there is still an elite peak thief and warlock who has not yet made a move.
"I didn't know that someone would spend 500 gold coins to ask for your head, I didn't understand it before, but now, I understand it a little."
"It looks a little different from ordinary elite beginners." Kojie played with the dagger in his hand, and then slowly caught it: "But let me calculate, how long can you hold on?" ”
As soon as he finished speaking, the three assassins attacked Locke from three tricky angles, and the three assassins seemed to be part of the wind and snow in the air.
"I can't imagine that as the Duke of Riptide Castle, I'm only worth five hundred gold coins." Locke tells the ghoul to fend off the thieves coming from the right, and he himself faces the thieves who rush from the other two sides.
The warlock girl standing on the snowy mountain not far away, her pale white eyes stared at Locke quietly: "You are strong, but no one can escape the assassination of the syndicate. ”
Locke raised his sword, but a mutation occurred from around him, and two large shadow chains suddenly appeared from the void, binding his hands tightly.
