Chapter 038: Death Withers

The raging flames finally died out, and everything within the scope of the firestorm turned to scorched earth. The ashes scattered like black snowflakes, adding a strong sense of wasteland to the ruined walls.

Kel'thugad coughed vigorously, as if he was about to spit out his cracked entrails. He no longer had a single piece of skin on his body, and his whole body seemed to crawl out of a pile of ashes, like a piece of charcoal that had been burned.

In the blurred vision, the dazzling red figure slowly approached him, and Kel'thugad raised his head with difficulty, looking at the meticulous and delicate face of the blonde elf: "Kael'thas, I have always thought that you are the person in the council who can best understand my painstaking efforts. ”

"Ask yourself, as Queldore, are the miracles you have created in the field of magic really a step-by-step process?"

"Throughout history, it is only by breaking the rules that the deeper knowledge and power of the arcane can be explored. ”

"Yes, many years ago, we brought in demons, but at the same time, we achieved Dalaran's unshakable status. But now you are trying to erase my great achievements. What about fairness, what about morality!"

Without the slightest fluctuation on his face, Kael'thas quietly looked at the weak mage with disordered breath, and shook his head silently: "You are wrong, Queldore has already experienced the pain and disaster caused by these things, and we are not suppressing your abilities, but preventing this world from suffering again." ”

"It's enough to make a mistake once, and that's why I joined Dalaran. ”

"Hahaha, ahem......" Kel'thugad, who laughed heartily, pulled the wound and couldn't help but cover his chest in pain and squatted down. After a while, the relieved archmage slowly stood up.

What made Kael'thas frown in front of him was that in Kel'thugad's hand, there was an extra delicate rose at some point. The scarlet color was like flesh and blood.

"Kael'thas, don't you understand?"

"Dalaran, there's no place for you at all!"

The elven prince's eyes widened suddenly, and without saying a word, he directly flashed and opened the distance. At the same time, the rose in Kel'thugad's hand withered and withered at a great speed, and with a gust of wind, the dried petals fell with the wind.

Airplanes!

The black-purple streamer centered on Kel'thugad and quickly spread in all directions, and everywhere it went, everything seemed to speed up countless years. The masonry weathered, the houses collapsed, the soil dried up like stubborn stones, and the plants and trees lost their verdant green, withered and withered in an instant.

"Neither do I have it. ”

Under the erosion of this force, even Kel'thugad's skin quickly aged and became wrinkled, and his original hair and beard turned pale.

Nine Rings Spell, Death Wither. By infusing the entire area with powerful negative energy, the living creatures age rapidly, their skin sags, their flesh peels off their bones and rots, buildings decay and collapse, and the destruction that takes decades or even centuries takes place in a matter of seconds.

The horror of this spell can be seen in Kel'thugad, who is an ordinary human. As a spellcaster, even he himself could not avoid being damaged by this spell.

Kael'thas, who fled the spell's range as soon as possible, immediately threw the fireball in his hand, however, as the fireball entered the range of death, the flames on it trembled and were silently extinguished.

In the end, there was only a faint spark in front of Kel'thugad.

Death withering, not only affects this land, but even magic can accelerate the extinction, of course, including the initial space blockade spell.

The array of teleportation spells slowly built under his feet, and Kel'thugad looked at the violet city like a traveler around the world: "How beautiful, this city. ”

"It would be better if there was a little more breath of death. With an eerie and seeping smile, Kel'thugad waited silently.

Not everyone can use teleportation as freely as Ranros or Medivan does, and even Kel'thugad takes a lot of time to prepare and chant. However, there is death withering, and Kael'thas has no way to take him.

As for the reason......

Sensing that Kel'thugad was concentrating on teleporting spells, a group of uncontrollable Kenrito guards burst out of the alley and rushed towards Kel'thugad's unsuspecting back. Without waiting for Kael'thas on the other side to stop them, they had already stepped into the gloomy area.

The sword rusted and shattered, the clothes turned to dust, the skin and flesh melted like mud and returned to dust, and even the bones dried up and weathered into powder, silently blending into the wind.

Kel'thugad didn't even look back at them.

"You're the same kind of person I am, Kael'thas. Kel'thugad's increasingly aged voice was slow and slow, "Eventually, like me, I will be disappointed in this city and in this ignorant world." And I, will wait for that day. ”

A burst of bright light flashed, and both the rich negative energy and the withered Kel'thugad disappeared.

Kael'thas looked at the deserted scorched earth and fell into a long contemplation.

————————————

“...... So far, a total of 123 casualties and 19 missing ......" On the circular corridor, Modra read the report in his hand in a heavy tone.

Antonidas looked at the only three people left in the corridor, his expression was extremely complicated, and it took a long time for him to come back to his senses.

"How's Drayden?"

"His injuries have been treated, and he has been confined, as you commanded. Mordra paused, his eyes silently resting on Kael'thas, "According to his confession, he had drunk a lot of alcohol the night before, which had made him restless all day. Moreover, those wines were given to him by Archmage Kael'thas not long ago. ”

"That's right. Not excusing himself, Kael'thas nodded under the scrutinizing gaze of the two, "Dredden has a deep understanding of protective magic, and I went to him to help him a few days ago in order to break the spell ban of Kel'thugad. ”

At the time, because there was no evidence pointing to Kel'thugad, Dreden couldn't get rid of suspicion. For this reason, I brought some gifts to prevent him from asking why. It's just that I didn't expect it to be so coincidental......"

Kael'thas had a sincere expression, at least neither Modra nor Antonidas had caught any flaws in his face or words.

Although he still felt a little strange in his heart, Antonidas was silent for a moment before choosing to believe Kael'thas. After all, there were only three people left in the Council of Six now, and there was a serious shortage of people to deal with the follow-up affairs, so he couldn't target the remaining archmages at this time.

"Have you tracked Kel'thugad's whereabouts?"

"No, he doesn't know enough about Dalaran's working mechanism and tracking methods to find even the slightest clue. Modra shook his head helplessly, "And if he rushes with all his might, he will be able to get out of our reconnaissance range tonight." ”

Antonidas closed his eyes, and after a long moment, he spoke slowly, "What about the eyes of Dalaran?"

Hearing this, the expression on Mordra's face became more and more bitter: "Although the signal capture of the Eye of Dalaran was turned on at the first time, the signal source completely disappeared this morning. ”

"What is the reason?"

"Either the Eye of Dalaran has been destroyed, or Lanros must know how to block out the energy fluctuations of a magical item as strong as the Eye of Dalaran. ”

"I'd rather believe the latter. Antonidas sighed heavily, not knowing if it was an illusion, his figure seemed to be more and more awkward.

"What would the Tyrius Secret Spell say?"

"This ......," Modra bit her lip, as if struggling with whether to answer the other person's question.

"Is something wrong?"

"No, it's just, it's strange that according to my investigation, the legal representative of the Tyrius Mystic Order is not Lanros at all. ”

"This can't be!" Kael'thas looked incredulous with a frown, "The establishment of the Secret Law Society was unanimously agreed upon by the Council of Six, and Lanros was standing in this position at that time. ”

"Of course I do. Modra smiled helplessly, "But the truth is that the legal representative who was registered at the beginning was Merrell Evil Wind. Lanloth's name has nothing to do with the Arcane Order. And, as far as I know, the person in charge of the registration of the Secret Festival is Lieutenant Cowen. ”

“......”

The atmosphere in the corridor suddenly became delicate, and several people did not speak again, but the three pairs of wise eyes shimmered with a similar but different and unpredictable luster.

"I got it all. In the end, it was Antonidas who broke the suffocating silence, "Mordra, Dredon will trouble you first during this time of work. As for Kael'thas, I'll have to trouble you and your guards next, and if something like this happens, Kel'thugad's men will definitely have a lot of ideas. ”

"I'll take over his job as quickly as I can. Nodding, Kael'thas disappeared straight into place.

Modra was not in a hurry to leave, she looked at Antonidas who closed her eyes and recuperated, and stopped talking.

"You go down too, I need to be alone for a while. ”

finally mustered up the strength to say something, but Antonidas's words were like a basin of cold water poured on his head, Mordra sighed silently, and could only hold back what he wanted to say: "Yes." ”

In the empty corridor, Antonidas gazed quietly at the churning clouds, and wondered if it was an illusion, but the clouds seemed to be much darker than before.
