22 Meet Kel'thugad again
In the face of a steady stream of undead, the commandos finally came to the cauldron, and all they had to do now was to destroy the thing and leave as soon as possible. The total number of undead in the entire plague land is no less than 100,000, and the thousands of undead they are facing now are only a small number, but the movement they set off now will definitely alarm other undead to rush here, so in order to leave before being completely surrounded, they must destroy the iron cauldron as soon as possible.
The paladins quickly formed a ring of protection in front of the iron pot, giving the mages enough space to set up bombs in the circle. Gianna wasted no time either, taking the other mages and starting to set up bombs at the bottom and top of the iron pot. As the minutes passed, more and more undead rushed over, and the death steam gushing out of the iron pot was harmful to the living, under the influence of the high concentration of death steam, the bomb that should have been set up for a long time was not installed, and a mage even fainted next to the iron pot.
The holy energy in the paladin's body has a natural resistance to this death energy, so the paladins next to the iron pot are not affected much, in this case, Arthas immediately turned around and came to the iron pot to help set up the bomb. Although Arthas didn't know how to set it up, he probably understood it after watching the slow operation of the other mages, and began to set it up in place of the fainting mage.
After a few seconds, the bomb was set up, at which point they had to get away from the pot and detonate it remotely. The mages had been weakened by the death vapors, and some were struggling to walk alone. Arthas had to pull out the paladin for support, while he himself supported Gianna. Although Gianna was reluctant to let him hold on, Gianna couldn't care so much about life and death, so she could only consider breaking away.
The assault team began to disengage from the battle, which was also to keep an eye on the undead attack. Arthas, who could only fight with one hand, was even more excited at this time, Gianna half-leaned into his arms and did not affect the speed of his sword swing at all, and the hand of one instead waved the two-handed greatsword smoothly.
10 meters, 20 meters, 30 meters, finally the commando team left the range of the farm, and Gianna also used a spell to detonate the bomb that had been set up.
"Boom", the shock wave of the explosion quickly spread around, and a large number of undead were also affected by the explosion and became corpses again. When the flames of the explosion passed, the original cauldron had been blown to pieces, and the constant steam of death had completely disappeared.
Alsace was very excited to see this scene, and Gianna could finally let go of what she had been worried about. At this moment, Arthas kissed Gianna on the forehead, seeing that Arthas was emotional and not out of danger yet, Gianna did not overreact, she just said softly.
"I can already walk on my own, thank you, you don't have to support me. ”
As soon as Gianna drew it, Alsace looked embarrassed, and he immediately reacted that his actions just now were a bit rude.
"I was so happy just now, don't you mind, I'll still hold you. "Alsace Road.
"I can already walk on my own. Gianna said, breaking free of Arthas's arm.
Gianna proved that she was a little angry now, and Arthas didn't know what to say at this point. They were still surrounded by an army of the undead, and he didn't have time to apologize.
"I'm not minding if you kiss me. But let you let go of me, and you should let go of me. Gianna continued.
"It's really a willful lady, do you have to do whatever you say?"
A voice echoed through the woods.
"It's been a long time, dear sister. ”
The army of the undead on one side suddenly separated, and Kel'thugad appeared in the middle of the parting path.
"Kel'thugad, you traitor who has ruined Dalaran's reputation!" Gianna scolded at once.
"Haha, it looks like you haven't figured out the current situation yet, I just need to move my fingers to kill you. Kel'thugad laughed.
Fearing that Kel'thugad would really make a move, Arthas quickly stood in front of Gianna. At this point, the other undead also stopped attacking, as if waiting for Kel'thugad to give orders in fright.
"As soon as you came, you fried the cauldron of plague that I had taken a long time to make, and it didn't seem appropriate for you not to leave something to compensate. Kel'thugad said.
"And what do you want?" Arthas asked immediately.
"It's not good, it's just that I'm not happy that an important magic weapon was blown up by you, so you just need to make me happy. Let's take Gianna, have a spell duel in Dalaran, maybe I'll be happier if I teach you a lesson. Kel'thugad said.
"If you want to duel with me, she is very weak now, and it is unfair for you to do this. "Alsace Road.
"Hahaha, Gianna, you're so charming! Kel'thugad laughed again.
"I have nothing to do with them, I accept your challenge. Gianna used her weak body to pull away Arthas, who was in her way.
"You idiot, he deliberately provoked you. Alsace said.
"Don't worry, the difference in strength between us is already very large. I won't bully you for being weak, and I won't use the strength of the Great Magus to bully you for a Magus. I'll help you recover first, and I'll only use basic spells in a duel. Kel'thugad said.
After Kel'thugad spoke, the death energy that had entered Gianna's body escaped again in the form of steam, and Gianna also returned to her original physical condition.
"Kel'thugad, you have mastered the use of death energy, is that what you started this event for?" Gianna asked as soon as she recovered.
"This is the will of the great Lich King, and I am now his apostle. Originally, I have always been jealous that you have become the next generation of Da Lanran, and it is you who have snatched the glory that originally belonged to me from me. But thank you very much for now, if it weren't for you, I wouldn't have met the Lich King. I won't kill you today as a thank you, but I'm going to experience the humiliation you've given me over the years. Kel'thugad said.
"Of course, if someone wants to replace you, I can only let all the undead army replace me, and you can also enjoy the feeling of group fighting. Kel'thugad said again.
"Gianna, leave him alone, I'll lead you out. "Alsace Road.
"Haha, Prince, have you made a mistake. Now that I've got all the undead in the area to come over, do you think you can really run away after the destruction?" Kel'thugad smirked dismissively.
"These spirits are at his disposal, and he directs us with no chance of escaping. Gianna said.
"Come and sister, I will love you well. Kel'thugad waved his hand at the undead on the side again, and the army of the undead withdrew some distance again.
A dueling arena of countless skeletons and ghouls quickly formed.
Gianna immediately attacked, and three water elementals in both hands immediately appeared beside her, and she flashed again to pull some distance from the others to prevent accidental injuries. The three water elementals began to fire ice arrows at Kel'thugad, and Gianna was chanting her newly developed spell, Ice Blast.
In the face of two simultaneous attacks, Kel'thugad was not flustered at all, and he agreed with Gianna to only use basic spells, so he was only counterattacking with basic spells. Kel'thugad quickly applied himself an ice shield and began to attack the water elemental with a blizzard. The water elemental's ice arrows continued to hit Kel'thugad, but they didn't even break the ice shield.
On the contrary, after two or three ** snowstorms, Gianna's water element has been completely defeated. But Gianna also didn't panic at all and continued to guide the chanting spell, the Ice Explosion Technique is a specialized attack spell developed by Gianna herself, and the power is far beyond the ordinary conventional attack spells. Shortly after the water elemental disappeared, Gianna also completed her spell channeling.
In an instant, the ice energy surged around Kel'thugad, and the ice cubes continued to appear out of thin air and then burst on Kel'thugad's body, and the whole thing was now like an ice cube version of gunpowder exploding.
After the successive ice explosions, the ice shield that had covered Kel'thugad had disappeared, but Kel'thugad did not appear to have suffered any substantial damage from the outside.
"Interesting, is this the spell you squeezed out of my project's development? It's not bad, but it's still a little hot for you to cast. Kel'thugad said with satisfaction.
After making sure that Kel'thugad was okay, Gianna cast another spell to make Kel'thugad experience the feeling of an ice explosion. But Kel'thugad had no intention of defending or dodging at all, and just stood there and raised his hand to shoot an ice shot at Gianna. The Ice Spear is the spell with the lowest attack power in the normal state of the basic ice spell, but after this Ice Spear hit Gianna, Gianna immediately fell to her knees in pain.
"It's boring, some kind of ice genius. I can't even withstand a single shot of ice spear. Kel'thugad immediately scoffed.
"It seems that Antonidas is also old and dizzy, and is ready to pass on Daranran to you this waste. Kel'thugad continued.
"It doesn't matter how much you want to humiliate me, but don't insult the mentor. Gianna looked up in pain and said.
"When did you awaken to the Origin Power?" Gianna asked again.
"It seems that you are not a waste with no knowledge, and you still know the origin. That's right, with the help of the Lich King, I awakened my own Origin Death Frost. Kel'thugad said.
"Didn't you say you weren't going to bully me, but this game wasn't fair at all, you didn't use your own spells, but you used the power of Origin. You're violating the rules, so I won this game, and according to the rules of the duel, let us out now. Gianna said.
"Hey, you're such a piece of waste. But seeing you such a waste, I'm in a much better mood, so I'll bypass you today. Kel'thugad said.
After saying this, Kel'thugad turned and left.
"Prince Arthas, we will meet again in the future, and then it will be our duel. ”
After the sound was heard, Kel'thugad completely disappeared into the dim forest.
"Bastard, next time I will kill you with my own hands to avenge the dead people and Gianna. Arthas yelled.
After that, the army of the undead that originally surrounded the group gradually dispersed, and the group was temporarily free from the threat of death. Arthas immediately came to Gianna's side to treat Gianna, and at this time Gianna was silently holding back tears, she also felt that she had been disgraced to her home today, and said a bunch of words to survive after losing the duel.
