Chapter 129: Magic Sword
In the darkness, when Xue Huan's figure gradually appeared in the cold Eldraine-Nirub Hall, Anubarak's huge body was obviously stunned.
It was now the early hours of the next morning, and it didn't expect that this guy would complete this tricky task in just one day, including the round trip.
"I'm amazed at how efficient you are, human!" Anubarak hummed.
"No, it's just the other party's carelessness. ”
At this time, Xue Huan was carrying Niya on his back, stepping on the ancient magic staircase, and slowly walked towards Anubarak. His face was wrapped in a black cloak, and no expression could be seen, but his tone seemed nonchalant, as if it were just a trivial matter.
During this time, he also took the time to pick up Nia, and for some reason, during the time of separation from him, this little girl's condition seemed to get worse. She didn't say a word, her face was pale, her breath lay on Xue Huan's back, and sweat flowed down the girl's forehead like a column of water.
Seeing Nia's injury worsening, Xue Huan, who was shocked and distressed, didn't dare to be careless anymore, and quickly put his mental power into the necklace and returned to Eldraine-Nirub.
"Very well, I think your style will win the master's appreciation, so now, take out your loot and let me see. Anubarak looked excited, and it snapped the pair of insect wings behind him.
"No problem!"
With that, Xue Huan freed his left hand, took out the Frost Eye from the baggage, and shook it in front of Anubrak, "This should be what you want." ”
The artifact in his hand was still dull and untouchable, and the moment Xue Huan took off the Frost Eye, it seemed to have lost its vitality.
"Good, this is the thing. ”
Anubarak's voice suddenly raised a few degrees and vibrated back and forth in his body, and it seemed even more pleasant, "You have proven your worth, little one!"
After a pause, it continued: "This Frost Eye is one of the treasures of the gods that those trolls believe in, and without this artifact, their power will be greatly weakened, you have done a good job, little one, I think, the end of those filthy trolls is near!"
As he spoke, the big beetle made a buzzing sound, it may be happy, Xue Huan could only guess so.
However, Xue Huan thought about it, maybe it was because he stole the Frost Eye, this artifact that could provide the power of the giant snake, that he had a chance to hurt it, otherwise with his current strength, let alone causing damage to the giant snake, he could cause some scratches on other people's scales, thank God...
"Now, place that orb in your hand on the ground. ”
Anubarak's deep voice pulled Xue Huan back, and the latter reacted for a long time before he realized that the "orb" that the big beetle was referring to was the Frost Eye. However, from the outside, this artifact is spherical in shape, and it is crystal clear and extremely hard, and it is no different from ordinary pearls when it has lost its magical powers.
Nodding, Xue Huan leaned over and placed the Frost Eye on the ground for some unknown reasons, the tarnished orb was still white and flawless, and it looked a little out of place with the dark and cold buildings around him.
Anubarak waved its pincers at Xue Huan, signaling the latter to retreat, and then, it began to frantically wave its pincers, stretching its wings, and humming from time to time, as if it was performing some ancient and mysterious "ritual".
To be honest, watching this terrifying-looking giant beetle wave its pliers, as if it was "dancing", this contrast and funny appearance made Xue Huan feel a little funny.
But then, he couldn't laugh...
I saw that with Anubarak's ridiculous movements, the frost eyes that were still dim just now began to gradually wake up, and little by little blue spots of light began to emerge, Xue Huan clearly felt that the already dark and cold hall seemed even colder.
As time passed, Xue Huan was more and more amazed by the sight in front of him, and after about half a minute, the blue light burst from the Frost Eye was even more than before, and the temperature around him dropped to freezing, and even the little spiders that were weaving webs nearby had to hide back in their nests.
"This is..."
Before Xue Huan could speak, Anubarak's buzzing voice came: "Little one, come and receive the gift from His Majesty the Lich King!"
Gift?
The Lich King?
Regarding Anubarak's words, Xue Huan was a little confused.
"What should I do?" he asked tentatively.
"Connect your spiritual power to this artifact, and you will absorb its full power!"
Perhaps because it had completely unlocked the seal of the Frost Eye, Anubarak had stopped all its movements at this time, and it stood there silently, staring at Xue Huan with two dark blue eyes.
I see...
Xue Huan understood that this big beetle was going to absorb the power inside the Frost Eye by himself, just as he had absorbed Guldan's skull in the first place.
After hesitating for a moment, he carefully placed the weakened Niya on his back on the side of the demonic platform, and then, he slowly approached the Frost Eye, and after feeling the cold, rich source of power emanating from the artifact, he no longer hesitated, probing his spiritual power into it, and trying to channel the power inside the Frost Eye.
Just like absorbing Guldan's skull at the beginning, the cold power directly submerged into Xue Huan's brain almost instantly after it came into contact with the power of the evil energy carried by Xue Huan, and immediately after, the Frost Eye once again lost its divine power and luster, shattered, and even the surrounding temperature seemed to rise.
"Shhh
Xue Huan's face turned pale, and he only felt that endless cold was enveloping his whole body, and a cold and bone-chilling power was flowing through his blood, quickly flowing to his limbs. When this power flowed to his heart, Xue Huan clearly felt that another force in his body was trying to fuse this cold power.
That's the power of evil powers!!
It was the power of evil energy given to him by the heart of the devil and strengthened by the skull of Guldan, this power was violent and manic power trying to suppress, and fused with another cold and piercing frost power, the devastation of the confrontation between fire and frost can be imagined, under the destruction of this force, Xue Huan's face was as white as paper, and he fell to the ground with convulsions.
This is already the second time...
Xue Huan only felt that every time he gained strength, it was like a disaster, a big gamble, and if he was not careful, he would completely go to hell.
No way!!
For my own sake and for Nia's sake, I have to get through!!
Two violent forces collided in Xue Huan's body, and the intense pain that was heart-rending made Xue Huan unbearable, and he subconsciously hugged his shoulders, his nails almost embedded in the flesh. He only felt that his bones and muscles were shattered and cracked like shredded paper, and the sudden cold and sudden heat alternated in his body, and the destruction of his body reached the extreme!
In this short half a minute, Xue Huan experienced a pain that he could not bear as a human being, and this pain was far more intense than the pain that the Demon Heart brought to him at the beginning.
And in the end, the power of the origin in his body took over, and under the suppression of the violent evil power, the power of frost was fused and devoured little by little, and finally disappeared into invisibility.
"Whew..."
As Xue Huan exhaled a breath of turbidity, his pale face returned to a trace of blood, and his eyes changed from cloudy to clear.
He staggered to his feet, although he felt that his body was still very weak and his limbs were weak, but the feeling of reorganization of bones and blood gave him the pleasure of rebirth, and he felt that his strength seemed to be strengthened again!
"Stubborn willpower!"
Anubarak flapped his wings and let out a buzzing sound of appreciation.
Xue Huan was noncommittal, besides, he was now weak and had no strength, so he didn't have any more to respond.
"But that's just your first step, and now, congratulations human, your willpower has earned you the right to complete your next mission. ”
"It's... What?" Xue Huan gasped.
The large beetle paused slightly, its eyes reflected a mysterious, faint blue cold light, it shook its huge head and buzzed its wings.
Frost's sorrow...
The name spat out of Anubrak's mouth and lingered in Xue Huan's ears, causing the latter to freeze in place, as if he had lost his soul!
What the hell is this like...
He had never heard of the name, but it seemed to have a magical power that made him tremble slightly from the depths of his soul, and the name seemed to be inextricably linked to him in some way, as if fate was whispering in his ear...
