Chapter 11: Attacking the Psychic Academy
After the teleportation failed and all the people who had gone out to contact him lost contact, Kel'thugad had to admit that he and his Cult of the Damned had no way to escape. The Lich King gave him a mission that he faced failure before it even began. Kel'thugad shuddered at the thought of the Lich King's mighty power and the possible punishment for defeat—death was not terrible, but in the face of the Lich King's terrifying power, he would definitely suffer more terrible torture than death.
A few years ago, Kel'thugad had defected from Dalaran and made a "pilgrimage" to Northrend, which made him fear the Lich King even more. He had never seen such a powerful man in his life, and Dalaran's strongest mage would be vulnerable to the Lich King.
The wraith that floats in the Ice Crown silently speaks of the fate of those who dare to defy its will.
At such a critical juncture, Kel'thugad could no longer afford to expose the Lich King in advance, and he had to tell Sù Naozu about the situation, his own wisdom was no longer enough to face the current situation.
After Kel'thugad fell into meditation, it was easy to sense the Lich King's existence - its power was too great to be isolated from this strong will, even if it was thousands of miles away.
He carefully reported the situation, and then desperately awaited punishment from the Lich King: the ruler of the realm of the dead hated the disobedient and incompetent, and he had no expectation that he would be let go. He didn't even dare to disobey the slightest, for his mind had no secrets in front of the great Lich King.
"Idiot!"
Sure enough, a sharp soul-tearing pain came into his mind, and Kel'thugad crawled on the ground and rolled in pain, but this did not alleviate the mental trauma in the slightest. He forgot time, and the pain lasted as long as his life, and as the pain faded away, he feared the Lich King's power even more.
"My plan cannot be ruined. I will use my strength to help you, Kel'thugad, and don't let me down again! ”
"Yes, my lord!"
……
When the coalition forces assembled in Andohar learned of the real mission, the soldiers of these alliances burst out with a stronger will to fight than the orcs - they all knew that the beasts were just a bunch of lost dogs roaming around, and that people were powerless to subvert the alliance, and that the evil sect hiding on that island could destroy the entire world of the living!
Admiral Daelin's navy was the first to encircle the entire island on Lake Daronmere; Uther's men marched into the castle from the bridge. Considering that Gianna is still very young and lacks combat experience, she is tasked with continuing to maintain the barrier of imprisoning teleportation and preventing the Cursed Sect from escaping through the Guò Teleportation Array; The Prince of Arthas takes a bunch of men with him to keep her and the other mages safe; Uther entered the dungeon with his infantry, mages, and battle priests. Jiang Weihan and Kyle were also among them, although Da Suohan had doubts about his combat power before, but after he showed his hand, he didn't say anything more.
Before entering the dungeon, Uther, as the commander-in-chief, began to speak routinely - this was a necessary procedure before the attack, otherwise how could it be shown that Kel'thugad was a great villain?
His energetic voice spread throughout the Psychic Academy, terrifying some of the weak-minded acolytes and students:
"Warriors of the Alliance, we are gathered here today to crusade against an evil sect that seeks to destroy the world of all the living, to turn us into thoughtless, rotten living corpses for them to drive. We must not allow this evil force to survive in our world! ”
"Today, we will fight for the Alliance!"
"Today, we will fight for justice!"
"Today, we will fight for the world of the living!"
"Kel'thugad, the Light will not forgive his sins!"
"Righteous judgment has come!"
"Warriors of the Alliance! Join me in destroying the evil Cursed Sect! ”
"Rush!"
Uther let out a roar of rage, and a dazzling glow from his hammer illuminated the eerie underground entrance.
The soldiers, who were so excited, followed Uther and poured into it in a neat and orderly manner.
Jiang Weihan is also one of the people who are inspired. However, he should be the safest of the warriors: Tirio Fording stands in front of him, Kyle, the Angel of Judgment, covers his flanks, and Antonidas, the Guardian, is behind him. In this psychic academy, no one and no undead can break through such tight defenses.
"The treatment of the spellcaster is good."
Jiang Weihan muttered to himself. But apparently, Tirio would protect him, not only because he was important, but also because he would repay him for defending the isolated paladin.
The Cult of the Damned placed on the front line of resistance is a dense crowd of skeleton soldiers. These skeletons were vulnerable to the paladins' warhammers and the power of the Light, and could only serve to stall for time. Jiang Weihan, who was following the crowd, completely played soy sauce, and the mage troops and battle priests basically didn't come in handy.
Soon, though, as the battle line advanced, they came to a large room. There are no skeletons and cannon fodder that come up without brains, but a complete Scourge class squad:
Ghouls make up the majority of its composition, about two hundred or so. They were completely indistinguishable from human form, their faces were like melted candles, and their sharp teeth were constantly drooling with disgusting salivation; At the front of the line were four large abominations, creatures born from the combination of corpses and necromantic magic were more than two meters tall, their eyes were much smaller and showed a cruel glow, the two hands in front of them held huge and heavy machetes and chains, and the deformed third hand sticking out of the back of the neck held a scythe. It was a purely "weapon" made for killing, surrounded by a green cloud of plague; A group of acolytes and necromancers were much thinner in the legion, all masked, their black hoods and robes wrapped around themselves tightly, like mummies afraid of the sun; Overhead, a dozen gargoyles created by giant vampire bats hovered and soared, rubble ready to attack.
And at the very center of this small legion is a lich.
"Just in time," the lich's bone-only jaws opened and closed in a sound similar to the rubbing of bones, "this will be your burial place." Your corpses will be good research material, and your souls are the greatest nourishment for me—"
"My name is Les Frostwhisper. Remember to destroy your name, and when you die, your soul and ** will be driven by me! ”
Jiang Weihan silently complained: "There is a lot of nonsense. ”
But he knew that this was where the real battle began. That was just a warm-up. I just don't know, the weak chicken boss who has been pushed I don't know how many times in the game will have what kind of power will he have in reality?
The soldiers of the alliance also completed in a group, with the shield-wielding warrior at the front. Tirio pressed forward and came to the front line with Dasohan and Uther, ready to take out the four terrifying-looking abominations first. Mages and priests prepare to fight gargoyles and necromancers. As for the most powerful lich Leth Frostwhisper, there is naturally a ** master Antonidas to cook.
Now that Kel'thugad has not yet appeared, Jiang Weihan is ready to paddle and rub the assist.
"Kyle, this is the time for you to show off your skills, you don't have to take care of me, I'm safe." Jiang Weihan said to Kyle beside him.
Kyle glanced at him and replied, "Yes." "She was confident that even if His Excellency the Commander was in danger, she would be the first to do the rescue—faster than anyone here.
So there is a solution to the fourth abomination.
It is also unknown who took the lead in the attack. Jiang Weihan saw the ghouls on all fours in the back, running over like dogs, and the soldiers of the Silver Hand did not hesitate to raise their shields to meet them.
Uther, the three paladins each picked an abomination and fought with this monster. Dasuhan tried to resist the abomination machete with his weapon, but the tremor of his hands discouraged him from winning with strength, and instead began to nimbly dodge the abomination's attacks, using the light-blessed warhammer to inflict damage on the evil undead creature.
Uther and Furding chose the same method, but it was clear that Uther's skillful combat skills had made his opponent powerless. The abomination that fought him screamed, but each attack from the other took away large chunks of rotting flesh and broken bones from it.
But the focus of the battlefield was not on the three dazzling paladins. For the first time, the Alliance saw Kyle, the Angel of Judgment, strike: she waved her snow-white wings and burst into the clumsy abomination, the red gem of the greatsword in her hand glowing, and the "Sword of Judgment" burned like oil. Each swing of the angel carried a large scorching spark, and the ghoul who hated the nearby was purified into dust like snowflakes falling into boiling water under the blazing flame.
Even the seemingly incomparably large abomination and melted ice cream turned into a puddle of burning flesh after the angel's third swing of the sword, and quickly dissolved.
This absolute crushing made the eyes of the entire battlefield turn to Kyle. She didn't care, and after eliminating the abomination, she waved her wings and rushed directly to the necromancer, wielding the sword of judgment and letting the holy fire cleanse every unclean soul in front of her.
This caused the necromancer troops, who were still back and forth with the alliance mage forces, to immediately fall into chaos and collapse. The mentally ill-witted even fell to their knees and begged for forgiveness - and were frozen into ice slag by the lich behind them.
Kyle vibrated his wings and came to the lich in the center of the Scourge Legion like lightning, raised his holy sword, and let out a cold voice:
"Meet the judgment!"
