Chapter 352: The Urn of the Undead
The second demon master Jia Ao recited an ancient and useful incantation, and as his incantation roared a faint purple light, a gust of wind blew, and the dust on the ground was cleansed, revealing mysterious symbols, which moved according to a fixed rhythm, as if breathing. [No pop-up novel network]
"This is the circle left by Lord Neozou, the Lich King," the demon wizard muttered to himself, and although he had studied the circle in the books that Kel'thugad had given him, he was still shocked when he actually saw it.
The complexity and grandeur of this circle is breathtaking.
"How long is the resurrection ritual?" The Terrorblade didn't know anything about the circle, and his mission today was to protect the resurrection ritual.
It took about twenty days for Leo to reply respectfully, he was very jealous of the strength of the Terror Blade, this. Fallen elves with demonic wings always have an unfathomable feeling.
"More than twenty days? So long? Although Terrorblade guessed that this ritual was cumbersome, he didn't expect it to last so long.
Leo replied: "I want to resurrect 200,000 converted soldiers, and each soul will have to be cast by my own hands, resurrecting 10,000 a day, plus the three-day magic circle activation time, more than 20 days is already very tight."
"Well, Terrorblade took out a round jar from its inventory, and it was a large man-headed and blue-gray with four hideous ghost heads carved around the altar, and a round lid on the top of the altar.
This is the urn of the undead that contains the souls of 200,000 converted warriors, it is also called the Shadow Spirit Gold, which was created by the Lich King himself more than 10,000 years ago and endowed with supreme magic.
The urn of the dead is different from some imitations of the Ding Spirit Gold in the Duota Continent, and the upper limit of its soul can reach ten thousand.
The Terrorblade pulled out another lilac gem, which looked like a fragment of a larger, spherical gem with jagged edges.
This is a fragment of the Eye of Dalaran, which can provide energy for this operation of the resurrection circle.
The Eye of Dalaran, the Book of Medivan, and the Scepter of Sargeras could all be used to open the Dark Door, but by now, all three artifacts had been shattered.
The demonic wizard Leo respectfully took the shards and the shadow spirit gold, placed them in the center of the resurrection circle, and then, he began to dance a strange and funny dance, his somewhat short and fat body swaying like a sheep's madness, and the sheep's head staff in his hand shimmered with burgundy light as it swayed, the color of death's finger.
"Let's go out, waiting for the guards to be uninterested in Leo's dance, and he turns and walks slowly to the top entrance.
Although the three evil orc brothers were dissatisfied with the Terror Blade, they did not dare to disobey his orders, and as for the Void Mask, he was used to being silent.
The Terrorblade was the first to walk out of the main hall, and the three evil orc brothers were parallel to the Void Mask, and the eldest of the three brothers, Ruut, was even more jealous of the blue Void Mask next to him, and he always felt that this monster with strange long stripes on its face was even more terrifying than the Horror Blade.
Closing the huge stone door on the top floor, the Terrorblade sat cross-legged, its broad wings enveloping him, covering his entire body. Body. The Terrorblade looked at the dark passage, and a demonic smile appeared on the corner of his mouth, My dear brother, I wonder if you have ever lost your way?
With the help of the Eye of Sargeras, Gu Nansheng and the others avoided all the potential dangers of the Dragon Sleep Temple, and he made a preliminary estimate that between the third and fifth floors of the Dragon Sleep Temple, there were more than thirty black dragons and seven twilight dragons sleeping.
It is impossible to estimate how many orders Gu Nansheng is of the Twilight Dragon, but since it was created by Deathwing, it must be not bad. These guys are still less likely to mess with.
Majina said: "After the attrition just now, our strength is probably not as good as the natural disaster, when the time comes, I will drag my brother, and the rest of the people will entangle the remaining strong people of the natural disaster, Mr. Nan, you just need to flash to the resurrection circle to kill the demon wizard Leo, it is best to destroy the urn of the dead by the way, then our task will be completed."
Gu Nansheng thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I'll kill Leo and come back to help you deal with the Terror Blade together."
Majina shook his head stubbornly, he clenched the Wangshuo Demon Blade slightly, and said firmly: "I have to face this duel with my brother, even if I have a good chance of winning, Gu Nansheng knew that he was determined to have a fair duel with the Terror Blade, so he stopped talking.
There are a total of ninety-nine floors in the Dragon Sleep Temple, each floor is 100 meters high, and the entire temple is in the shape of a square cone, with an inclination angle of degrees, which is the most stable angle in nature.
At this time, Gu Nansheng and the others had already walked up to the ninety-seventh floor, and they were circling around in the tortuous passages inside the Dragon Sleep Temple, and the total distance they had traveled was already more than two hundred kilometers.
Gu Nansheng said: "There are five natural disaster warriors on the ninety-eighth floor, according to the breath, two of them are level strong, the other three are relatively weak, they should be evil orcs, and there is one on the ninety-ninth floor." In the Scourge War, it should be the demonic wizard Leo.
In the past few days, Majina is no longer surprised by Gu Nansheng's keen perception, this perverted guy can easily see through several layers of space.
Hearing Gu Nansheng's words, Majina's face was a little solemn, the number of surviving the Cataclysmic Legion was beyond his imagination, and he asked, "One of those two level powerhouses should be a terrifying blade, and who is the other?" ”
Gu Nansheng observed intently for a while, and replied, "It's the Void Mask."
"Void Hypocrisy"
Magina gasped, and the Adam's apple of the other twelve people also rolled a few times,
Of course, they remembered that not long ago, the Void Mask and the Terror Blade teamed up to kill in Dalaran, and no one could stop the scene, not to mention the strength of the Terror Blade, the Void Mask was not necessarily worse than the Terror Blade, his ability to manipulate time and space was very weird, and people didn't know how to deal with it at all.
"Are you sure it's him?".
Gu Nansheng nodded, "I'm sure he naturally understands heroes, especially the Void Masquerade, so although it's the first time he's seen the Void Masquerade, he still recognizes it at a glance."
"Void Masquerade" is in trouble now, but I didn't expect him to come, he didn't even appear when he was in the Black Yaoshi Temple before Gu Nansheng said: "He should be hidden in the gap in the space, and I didn't pay attention to it at the time." ”
Magina calmed down and calmly analyzed the current situation, although there were only six people on the other side, these six people were very strong.
At the beginning of the net, there were thirty-two guards, the number was superior, but the personal strength was weak, and the natural disaster was just the opposite, originally the total strength of the two sides was not very different, but because of the devastating blow of the Black Yaoshi Temple, the strength of the guards was obviously inferior to the natural disaster.
The six people who died in the natural disaster were just some small characters, and the remaining six escaped under the pursuit of thousands of destroyers with their true skills, and in terms of strength, I am afraid that it is not the fifth order but also the fourth order number peak.
On the other hand, the remaining fourteen people of the guards, except for Gu Nansheng and Majina, the remaining twelve people barely survived under the protection of Gu Nansheng, which was not a little worse than the natural disaster.
What's more, the Scourge's legion also has a sixth-order Void Mask.
Magina asked hopelessly, "Mr. Nan, if you fight against the Void Mask, you have a few chances of winning."
Gu Nansheng replied truthfully: "I don't know if I don't fight." ”
Because of the appearance of the Void Mask, the original division of labor in battle is no longer applicable, and Magina has to start reconsidering, even if Mr. Nan can fight to a draw with the Void Mask, and the other twelve people entangle the three evil orcs, but he still can't defeat the Terror Blade himself, not to mention that there is a demon wizard who is casting spells in the resurrection circle.
No matter how you look at this battle, there is not much chance of winning.
"General Magina, do you think this operation should be considered in the long run?" One of the twelve middle-aged men with chestnut hair hesitated slightly, and tentatively put forward his opinion.
Magina frowned slightly after hearing this, "How do you think about it in the long run?" The resurrection ceremony has now begun, and let's not forget that it took us a month just to get here, so should we spend another two months traveling back and forth to the Holy Land to bring the rescuers? At that time, 200,000 undead turned warriors were probably already killed in Barghada! He turned to the rest of the people, "Do you think so?" ”
He looked around at the warriors around him. Under the black blindfold, there seems to be a pair of bright eyes, through which they point directly to people's hearts.
"This" The other people dodged their eyes, not daring to look at Magina, even though they knew that the other party had lost their eyesight.
The meaning of their demeanor could not be more obvious.
Magina looked at everyone coldly, and her voice became deeper and deeper, "Are you scared? ”
These twelve people did begin to be scared after hearing the remaining power of the natural disaster, which is actually understandable, these people are already very brave to come to the Dragon Sleep Temple to carry out this dangerous mission, and now they have finally come here, but they have to face the battle of nine deaths, so they are naturally unwilling.
It's okay to sacrifice a little for the common people in the world, but if you sacrifice your life, "I'm afraid there won't be a few such noble people in this world."
At least Gu Nansheng understands this sensational idea at this time. If he had been in their position, he would have patted his ass and walked away.
The atmosphere fell silent for a moment, and the twelve people looked a little embarrassed, they either looked at the dome or the floor, although they knew in their hearts that this act of retreating was shameful, but it was better to die than to live.
Magina clenched the Gaze Demon Blade for a long time. He exhaled heavily, and his fighting spirit seemed to have lost a lot in an instant.
He can not be afraid of death, but he can't ask his subordinates to be like himself.
His brother said, "It doesn't matter what path you choose, as a man." You have to know how to rely on yourself
But now Magina really doesn't know what to do, he suddenly feels that his life is full of failures, he was bullied when he was a child, and he needs his brother to come out; His mother was miserable all her life, but he couldn't do anything but watch her die depressed; When I met a girl I liked as an adult, I didn't dare to confess, so I could only stand silently in the corner and look at her; After that, he failed to stop his brother's depravity, and watched him slaughter his own people.
Later, he blinded himself with his own hands and followed his brother's footsteps, trying to stop him from falling deeper and deeper, but he was only pulled further and further away by his brother.
Thinking of this, Majina sighed and looked up at the ninety-ninth floor of the Dragon Sleep Temple, her expression full of loneliness. It was as if he could only walk here, and could only look up at his brother at such an angle.
The warriors of the guards were a little unbearable when they saw Majina's appearance, and the middle-aged man with the chestnut head continued: "General Majina, it's not our guts If our sacrifice can be exchanged for victory in the battle, we will definitely not frown, but now I feel that we used to be sent to death, and you and Mr. Nan can join forces to deal with one of the Terrorblade and the Void Mask, but what about the other?" Shall we deal with it? Not to mention that there is also a demonic wizard
Majina had nothing to say, and at this time Gu Nansheng coughed lightly, "You mean to prepare to return to Lihai and inform the guards to be prepared to face the 200,000 transferred soldiers."
Gu Nansheng's words were a little ironic, and the person who spoke was suddenly a little embarrassed, but it could be seen that he meant that.
Fear of death and greed are the labels of humans, and they have never had the courage and sense of glory of orcs.
At that time, Gu Nansheng faced the flame demon Ragnaros with the beast clan in the first trial, and there was also a huge disparity in strength, but the beast warriors were not afraid of death one by one, and their first thought was to defend their hometown, not their own safety.
Gu Nansheng is also not qualified to talk about others, because he himself is not a noble person, but this matter is related to his interests, so he has to stand up and speak, "This idea is not bad, but I remember that I met hundreds of sleeping black dragons and dozens of sleeping twilight dragons along the way, because there are too many of them, so I can't remember the location for a while, if you want to notify the guards as soon as possible, it is more convenient to use flashes to go out, I wonder if you can keep up?" ”
As soon as Gu Nansheng said this, the other twelve people were stunned, threatening, naked threat. The most speechless thing is that he actually asked if he used flashing out himself, would others be able to keep up? It's shameless to a certain level. However, Gu Nansheng did have the capital to threaten them, he relied on his powerful perception to bring twelve people here, but he and Majina could both use flashes to leave, and what about the others?
They don't have a map of Longmian Fortress like the Natural Disaster, if they didn't have Gu Nansheng's guidance and rushed out recklessly, they would basically be dead.
In order to achieve a shocking effect, Gu Nansheng deliberately exaggerated the number of dragons by ten times.
The faces of the twelve little guards became ugly for a while, if they rushed forward and died, at least they could still be called martyrs, and if they ran away and died, they would really die in vain, and maybe they would be laughed at by others.
At this time, the intestines of the twelve people who regretted it were all blue, and they knew that there was a void mask, so the fool followed up, and now it is difficult to ride a tiger.
In fact, they came to participate in this operation not only because of the responsibility of defending the guards, but also because of the high rewards promised by the Holy Land, including top-level exercises and sub-artifact-level equipment.
Majina looked at Gu Nansheng with the face of a profiteer, and had nothing to say.
He was really not used to threatening his subordinates like this, but at this time he had no choice, for the sake of the Guards Legion, in order to end this war, he had to acquiesce to Gu Nansheng's use of such a despicable method.
The twelve guards looked at each other, their faces were cloudy, and finally the middle-aged man with the chestnut head spoke again, "Mr. Nan, although you saved us, you can't force us to die, we are not frightened, as far as I know, the black dragon and the twilight dragon in the Dragon Sleep Temple are not as many as you said, if we go back the same way, it is not without a chance of survival."
Gu Nansheng said coldly: "Then you please."
The middle-aged man with a chestnut head had a sluggish voice. Embarrassed and speechless, another middle-aged man who looked like a mage said, "Mr. Nan, it's not that we are afraid of death and dare not go back, it's just that it is really meaningless to die like this."
Gu Nansheng felt that the other party's tone had room to maneuver, so he gave the other party a step down in time and said, "That's right, I admit what you say, if you go back." There is a chance of survival, but I promise you will have a better chance of survival if you keep going. ”
The middle-aged man with the chestnut head was overjoyed, "Can you tell me more about it?" As long as we can see hope, we don't want to ignore the lives of the people in the world
Gu Nansheng didn't like this chestnut-headed guy very much in his heart, if he was afraid of death, he was afraid of death, what kind of nonsense was the life of the world, it was really hypocritical to a certain level.
Of course, he couldn't express this thought, and he said, "We won't necessarily lose to the Catastrophe, but I need some time to prepare, you just have to wait for me here."
"How long?.
Gu Nansheng calculated slightly, "The long is fifteen days, and the short is ten days." ”
Magina frowned and said, "It's been too long, now that the gathering ceremony has begun, ten days later, I'm afraid that the Terror Blade has already led the army of transferred warriors to Balghada." ”
Gu Nansheng said confidently: "This magic circle will run for at least fifteen days, but the strength of the demon wizard Leo is relatively poor, if he presides over it, I'm afraid this time will be even longer." ”
Magina was stunned, "How do you know?"
Gu Nansheng said: "I have some research on the ancient magic array
In fact, it is not just a little research, he has inherited all the memories of the Lich King, and his knowledge of the ancient magic circle can dare to dominate the entire continent.
What's more, this resurrection circle in the Dragon Sleep Temple was originally drawn by a lich, and he knew the principle of the circle very well, and even if Gu Nansheng was given two years, he could draw a new one.
Majina really couldn't understand why Gu Nansheng knew so much about the Undead Resurrection Array. Even if he was interested, where would he go to get the classics on this subject?
Besides, people's energy is limited, he has upgraded and studied enchantment, where does he have the time to study the undead ancient magic circle?
Thinking of the word time, Majina smiled bitterly, as a core member of the Holy Land, he naturally knew Gu Nansheng's details, he was only in his twenties, and it was unimaginable to reach the realm of a seventh-order enchanter at this age, and it seemed that it would not be surprising to know one more undead ancient magic array.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh that there were too many secrets in this Mr. Nan, and his brother Terror Blade, whom he had always admired, seemed very mediocre in comparison.
