"Hahaha" The laughter of the giant ogre echoed in the kingdom of Edjanirab, and the sound of the ogre echoing in the spider kingdom surprised Locke.
But now was not the time to hesitate, Locke looked at the cave not far away, and the planned escape route instantly appeared in his mind.
Gugar stood in a cavern, staring at Locke below with a tease in his eyes, holding a staff that glowed with a lilac glow.
Countless spider demons rushed out of the lair, and the spider demons themselves were numerous and extremely aggressive on the rock wall, and after the death of the Prophet, they fell into a frenzy for a while.
In just an instant, the group of spider demons rushed towards Locke, their mouths making "sizzle" sounds, and some of their sturdy forelimbs were throbbing with shadow spells.
Locke's reaction was fast, and he instantly drilled towards the cave not far away: "Damn, soldiers of the Scourge Legion, use your flesh and blood to buy a little time for your lord." ā
The necromantic spider demon instantly formed a small military formation at the entrance of the cave that Locke had drilled into, constantly bearing the impact of the spider demon group.
Gurgar let out a hearty laugh, "Collapse, the end of this world is near, and the return of the Elder Gods is now, Azeroth, will be plunged into eternal darkness." ā
Locke's eyes are indeed dark, in the cave, there is no light, this tunnel itself is drilled out of the spider demon drill hole, itself is not very spacious, plus the strange smell of the spider demon, although Locke is an undead, but it still makes him feel very unhappy.
There was a very tight sound of insect swarms behind him, and it was clear that these spiders were already looking for Locke's traces in the tunnel.
Locke's heart sank, although he knew that his necromantic spider demon would not last long, but he didn't expect that he would die so quickly. ćć
The tunnel was not endless, and it didn't take long for Locke to see the end of the tunnel.
At the end of the tunnel was not darkness, but the light of a campfire.
What made Locke wary was that the light of the campfire was purple.
The purple bonfire symbolizes the burning shadow energy, which makes Locke frown slightly.
His reaction was quick, and he jumped into the room in an instant.
"Who?" The sound of urgency echoed through the small room.
Locke looked at where the voice was coming from, and from the sound of the voice, it was an old man who spoke.
In front of Locke were three Twilight cultists, dressed in Twilight church robes, holding ritual daggers in their hands, and a living person on the stone bed in front of them.
It was a young girl, and although she was still alive, her torn belly was obviously not long enough.
"Experiments." Locke muttered softly, though as a Death Knight wouldn't care about such a scene, after all, necromancers often do this kind of thing, but the Twilight Church was clearly Locke's enemy.
The two Twilight cultists were killed by Locke almost instantly, and the remaining elderly cultist, holding a staff in his hand, launched an attack on Locke.
The collision of the two shadow forces caused by the impact caused by them even made the tomb tremble slightly.
Tiny rocks fell through cracks in the rocks, and the crumbling earth buried Locke's previous tunnel.
In this room, only Locke and the Twilight cultists remained. ćć
The wind, solidified by the power of the shadows, tore directly from the veil on the Twilight cultists' faces.
"Benedictas!" Locke couldn't believe his eyes.
He never thought that Benedictas, the founder of the Silver Knights, the father of paladins, the disciple of Fao, the protector of the Holy Light, and the archbishop of Stormwind City, would actually be a member of the Twilight Church!
There was a quick silence in the house, save for the wailing of the maiden on the stone bed. Locke slashed with a sword, ending the girl's suffering.
"Why, why did you become a member of the Twilight Church." Locke looked coldly at Benedictas in front of him, and his body began to solidify the shadow power.
But it's not just Locke who solidifies the power of the shadows, Benedictas's feet emit this layer of lilac water, and the shadow power contained in it makes Locke feel terrified.
"Why, because the end has come." Benedictas said calmly, "Death Knight, isn't your strength derived from the Void? ā
"You and I together, this world is about to usher in a new life."
Benedictas looked indifferently at Locke in front of him, he had urgently accessed Locke's resources three hours ago, and after the discussion of the Twilight Church, it was obvious that this person could be sought.
Locke is also worth fighting for, not only does he have great power, but he is also a high-ranking official of the Scourge Legion, and even more differently, he is a key item in the Twilight Hammer project.
"You know very well, the ultimate fate of this world is destruction." Benedictas said slowly, "I used to be a fanatical follower of the Light, more fanatical than everyone else, but in the end I got nothing. ā
"For the Light itself is hypocritical, and it simply cannot heal the wounded souls of mankind. I've tried to use the power of the Light to save someone who is about to become an undead, but it can't even remove the darkness. ā
"It makes me hesitate about the Light, but it doesn't disappoint me."
"But I see the future."
"The future of this world, where the ground is scorched earth, in which humanity wails endlessly, dies. The sky was pitch black and cloudy, and there was not a shred of light. ā
"Then all things will sink in pain."
"In the end, the four Elder Gods will fight each other, and the victor will devour this planet, and the will to devour this planet, that is, Elune, will eventually become the youngest Void Lord in the universe."
"The Twilight Church will choose to coexist with the Elder Gods, and your rebellion is pointless, whether it is the Dragons, the Guardians, the Titans, these divine creatures are useless."
"Embrace the darkness...... This is the fate of this world. ā
Locke was silent, and in all fairness, these claims convinced him, and the Supreme Being of the Shadow Realm also tried to convince the Lich King, something Locke had seen in Kel'thugad's notes.
Silence
He looked at Benedictas in front of him and said slowly, "You want my answer, then my answer is...... No. ā
"I don't believe in a dark future, and besides, such a future is not the future I want."
"If this world has to face judgment, then it's up to me, the Elder God, the Void Lord, and I will never let their plot succeed."
Benedictas smiled slightly: "It's really arrogant, but do you know one thing?" ā
"Who are you?"
Locke sneered, what is the problem.
"You may have investigated your past life, but have you ever thought that if your investigation is wrong, it doesn't mean that the results of your investigation are wrong?" ā
Locke frowned slightly: "What do you mean?" ā
Benedictas: "You stretch out your hand, thinking in your heart, in the name of the bloodline, I summon the return of power." ā
"Pretending to be a ghost." Locke scoffed, but he still stretched out his hand, thinking in his heart, "In the name of the bloodline, I summon the return of power." ā
Locke soon sensed that something was wrong, and his heart, which had stopped beating, began to beat rapidly, and then a stream of blood gushed out of his heart and was soon injected into his right hand.
His undead state could not be maintained either, and in just an instant, he was once again in a human state.
But it wasn't a simple human state, his right hand quickly began to mutate, and just at a speed visible to the naked eye, he turned into a huge dragon claw.
"Hahaha" Benedictas let out a series of laughs, and the archbishop of Stormwind even laughed at the pain in his stomach: "How ridiculous is your existence, your father just wants to make you an experiment, and your mother ...... It is also an experimental object. ā
"I was still suspicious before, but now I confirm that you are indeed the stolen dragon egg recorded in that book."
But Locke couldn't hear what Benedictas was saying, not just the blood rushing from his heart, but what surprised him even more was the sound of Deathwing echoing in his head.
"Pain and torment."
"The fire of darkness burns my hatred." (To be continued.) Mobile phone users, please browse and read, a better reading experience.
