Chapter 287: Dalaran's Magical Barrier
When Xue Huan's army of 600,000 undead was densely lined up outside Dalaran City, it was already early the morning of the next day.
Countless black dots were densely distributed under the city of Dalaran, and Antonidas in the city withdrew his palm on the Eye of Dalaran, and the investigation just now made the old mage's depression deeper, because in the rear of those undead legions, he also found a lot of demons.
Although he was confident in the limits of Dalaran City's mana, Antonidas couldn't help but rejoice when he really saw this terrifying army.
Fortunately, in the past few days, he has sent most of the mage apprentices to the mage guild of the rebuilt Stormwind Kingdom, entrusting his old friends to help take care of them, otherwise if the war breaks out, I am afraid that these children will be more than lucky.
"Mr. Antonidas, the undead are beginning to attack the city!
A familiar voice, in the form of mental fluctuations, entered Antonidas's mind, and the archmage paused for a moment, then nodded, took off the violet emblem on his chest, and placed it in the circle of the Eye of Dalaran in front of him.
This is a purple sphere floating in the air half a human height, the outer layer is all pure magic energy gathered together, the center is a purple, candelabra-like staff, the top of the staff is a small platform, three faint rays of light dotted in it, and two purple ribbons hanging on both sides of the staff, the platform at the top of the staff, floating mana illusion, like a purple eye, therefore, this thing is called the "Eye of Dalaran" by the first generation of mages.
Even the illusion of purple eyes was used by the first generation of mages as the national emblem and symbol of Dalaran.
This staff is surging with huge energy, and what is more, it has a will of its own, and Antonidas can feel that the reason why this staff is still safe in Dalaran is to wait for its fate to come.
But that didn't stop daring mages from using it as a functional item for Dalaran's magical enchantment, and the staff didn't show resistance.
Antonidas's badge was placed in the magic circle under the eye of Dalaran, and in the next moment, the huge, visible purple magic power quickly surged outward along the dense magic line, and soon spread throughout Dalaran, and under the gaze of Xue Huan and Kel'thugad outside the city, a purple light rushed into the sky from the center of Dalaran, and after the light dissipated, a thin purple shield surrounded the entire Dalaran.
"Oh?" Xue Huan tilted his head and watched all this happen.
The undead who were close enough to attack Dalaran under his orders could not even make a sound, and the moment they came into contact with this mana shield, they were destroyed by the powerful magic power.
Yes, it is not like being burned into ashes by the Holy Light, but the whole body is torn apart by the invisible position and becomes the most basic particle, a particle that cannot be seen by the naked eye.
"Tut-tut. Xue Huan smacked his lips and let out a voice of admiration, "This power is too powerful." โ
"Hehe, look, master, the magic enchantment, Dalaran has exhausted it for two hundred years, and generations of wise mages have participated in it, and only then have created a top-level defensive array!"
The Great Lich Kel'thugad floated beside Xue Huan, its jade-white skull clicking, and every time it opened or closed, a terrifying chill came out of its mouth.
Xue Huan looked at the mana shield that was constantly destroying the undead with indifferent eyes, and a minute later, after more than a thousand undead were torn apart, Xue Huan's fingers wrapped in black armor flicked lightly on the surface of Frost Sorrow, and the undead's offensive stopped, they were like soldiers who were forbidden by order, retreated hundreds of meters, and then stopped there quietly.
Xue Huan held the Frost Sorrow with both hands, he took a deep breath, and then stepped forward quickly, wearing the body of the delicate black and blue skull armor, bringing out an afterimage in the air, and when he was close to the enchantment, he held the sword with both hands and slashed it down.
"Shadow Strikeโ"
Black, red, and green intertwined energy erupted from the blade of Frost Sorrow, bringing out a sharp sword light that pierced the air, like a tenfold magnified energy blade of Frost Sorrow, which fell from the sky and fell on the surface of the double enchantment.
But this moment was enough to destroy a town's attack, and when it fell on the surface of the enchantment, not even a trace of ripples could be raised, and under Xue Huan's slightly surprised gaze, the blue-black energy blade, like melted ink, fell into the enchantment, constantly tumbling.
A second later, the full attack was bounced back, but no longer in the form of a sharp sword, but in the form of a shock wave, the black light brought up the dust on the earth, rolled up the air, like the roar of a giant beast, in the form of a black storm, swept across the undead battle line, like a blink of an eye, and hundreds of undead were scattered and disappeared in place.
Xue Huan, who was in the range of the black light, was unharmed, and when the black storm subsided, he still stood in that position, outside of his body, the light red light mask helped him block this counterattack, but looking at the dense cracks on the red light mask, Xue Huan's eyes became more and more cold.
"Kenrito's mages, I am Xue Huan, the first death knight under the command of the Lich King!If you don't want to suffer after death, I advise you to surrender immediately!!" Xue Huan roared, and at the same time, the undead behind him let out a neat and low roar under his command.
The Arcane Hall of Dalaran Violet Castle has a wide view of the Hillsbrad Hills through the windows, and at this moment, it is crowded with magician apprentices who want to witness the Scourge Legion, and they are scrambling to lie in front of the windows, judging the dense undead outside the city.
Xue Huan?
This voice came from the window, clear and powerful, and familiar, Angel, who was packing her bags, was shocked, she was not interested in this war, she desperately pushed aside her classmates who were lying in front of the window, and poked her little head out of the window.
The endless sea of the undead stretched into the sky, and the root of it all, the man on the skeletal warhorse, gave Angel a familiar feeling.
No, that's not him.
Angel shook her head desperately.
How could the man with his long stray white hair, sunken eyelids, and festering skin wrapped in terrifying black plate armor be the kind person who once protected them?
Maybe she misheard.
At this moment, another loud voice came, this time as gentle as jade, it was Antonidas.
"Although I do not know you, strange enemy, we are well prepared for your arrival, and you should have tried these defensive circles, which are dedicated to you and your pathetic corpse. Antonidas replied calmly.
"Hmph, you think your defensive barrier can stop me?"
Xue Huan smiled fiercely and continued to try to provoke the archmage: "Antonidas, you should have heard about what happened in Quel'Thalas, they also thought they could stop me, they also thought they were invulnerable, but what was the result?"
"I don't want to discuss these issues with you any longer, butcher, and get out of here with your army, or we'll do our best, and you and your monsters will all die here. โ
The two of them shouted in the air like old enemies for many years, Rao was like this, and Xue Huan also understood that this old guy was qualified to shout like this.
"Is there any way to break this barrier?" Kel'thugad?" Xue Huan asked the Great Lich beside him.
"Of course, my master, isn't that what I do by your side now?"
The Great Lich let out a hissed laugh of unknown meaning, and then said in a gentle voice, "These magical barriers, with the Eye of Dalaran as a charged item, have extremely strong defensive and counter-attacking abilities against both magical and physical attacks, but..."
Kel'thugad shifted his words and continued, "While these barriers can defend against enemies above the surface, they cannot..."
The Great Lich stretched out his bone claws and pointed down proudly, and looking at Kel'thugad's slightly comical movements, Xue Huan suddenly understood.
