According to the ancient documents Quel'Thalas inherited from the Dark Night Empire, the four major elements that constitute the foundation of the world all have duality.
For example, the element of fire possesses both the positive and negative attributes of passion and violence.
In the mentally retarded Magamanda, the duality of the fire element is most vividly reflected.
When facing her master Ragnaros, Magamanda will show extraordinary enthusiasm.
And when facing the enemy, it will show its violent side without mercy.
Facing an enemy smaller than itself but unable to attack for a long time, Magamanda's anger continued to soar, and its various physical attributes also gradually increased as its anger increased.
Fortunately, Sarlayan transformed into a very resilient Ursoc incarnation, and could barely sustain himself in the face of Magamanda's increasingly frequent attacks.
Stellagosa has been reporting the latest situation on the home front to Sharlayan through the soul link.
Sylvanas has grasped the trick and is concentrating on condensing high-intensity magical armor-piercing arrows.
In a state of rage, Magamanda completely lost its mind. Its dementia resulted in an all-round improvement in its attributes, including defense.
According to Stellagosa's calculations, even if you use aimed shooting to charge up, ordinary arrows can no longer penetrate Magamanda's thick skin, and some improvements must be made to the arrows.
Fortunately, Stellagosa had supervised the production of armor-piercing arrows when she was in charge of the territory, and she had some understanding of the structure of this special arrow.
Compared with ordinary tapered arrows, the arrows of armor-piercing arrows are more slender and have a cross-edged shape.
However, in order to achieve the best armor-breaking effect, two prerequisites need to be met.
One is a strong bow with enough weight, and the other is an archer who can draw the strong bow and shoot.
According to Danmaku, in the past historical records of their world, every strong archer without exception was a strongman with natural divine power.
In a world like Azeroth where magic exists, high elf rangers can enhance their arm strength by injecting magical assistance into their arms.
From the outside, Sylvanas's arms are not very strong, and her muscle lines are very well-proportioned.
But her specially adjusted golden bow of Quel'Thalas has an astonishing weight. When the bowstring is fully drawn and blessed with magic, it can even shoot arrows that exceed the speed of sound.
"Crunch~"
Stellagosa stood behind Sylvanas and continued to pour magic power. She could hear the creaking sound from the extremely flexible bow body soaked in magic power when the hard bow string was stretched to the extreme.
sound.
The preparations were complete, and Sylvanas was concentrating on accumulating energy for aiming and shooting, her hawk-like eyes staring directly at the "auxiliary line" marked on Magamanda.
Every living thing has the instinct to seek advantages and avoid disadvantages.
After Sylvanas activated Eagle Eye, the creatures she stared at should have a chilling feeling.
But at this time, Magamanda's sanity had been swallowed up by rage, her ability to perceive danger had significantly declined, and she was still chasing and biting Sarlayan who was right in front of her.
"go!"
With the loud sound of the bowstring being straightened, the arrow shot from Sylvanas's hand hit the target in the blink of an eye.
The armor-piercing arrows made of magical mimicry easily tore through Magamanda's tough fur and penetrated deeply into its body.
In the state of dementia, Magamanda's nerve reaction speed was obviously half a beat slower, and it took a second after the arrow hit to let out a shrill roar of pain.
Saraian's heart sank as he was evading Magamanda's wild attack at close range.
"broken."
She still had the strength to scream, indicating that Sylvanas' arrow failed to hit the core.
'Or... the arrow didn't penetrate deep enough?'
While Magamanda's movements were slow due to pain, Sarlayan gritted his teeth and transformed back into human form.
The body size suddenly shrank by a large margin, and Magamanda, who was not clear-headed, did not react for a moment.
It is not accurate to say that he has transformed back into a human form. At this time, Sarai's body is covered with fine golden dragon scales, and a small part of his face is covered by the scales extending from his neck. There are even growths on his head. Hard dragon horns.
Before Magamanda regained her composure and refocused on the target, Sarlayan flapped the dragon wings behind him and took off in a jet-like manner, and in the next second he rushed into the spot where Magamanda was hit by an arrow in the abdomen.
The entire arrow did not penetrate into Magamanda's thick fur, and Sharlayan could see the approximate location of the arrow through the auxiliary lines projected by Stellagosa in his field of vision.
At Sarlayan's request, the artifact Valajar War Sword changed its shape and transformed into a glove covering Sarlayan's right hand.
With the momentum of taking off, Sarlayan punched Magamanda's wound with a ferocious expression.
"You the hell...get in here!!"
"boom!"
Even Lylas, who was busy directing the battle in the distance, could clearly hear the loud sound when his fist hit his abdomen.
The force that penetrated the body pushed the armor-piercing arrow stuck between the flesh further into the depths. Sarlayan, who was in close contact with Magamanda, vaguely heard a very slight collision sound.
Stellagosa, who stayed behind to observe the situation, his eyes lit up, and he hurriedly left Sarlayan to issue the latest instructions.
"We've hit the core! Back up!"
Sharlayan and Stellagosa have been working together for many years, and there is no doubt about their trust in each other. He followed Stellagosa's prompts without hesitation, turned his body upside down in mid-air, and stepped hard on Magman with both feet. On Da's belly, he used the force to fly back.
Magmanda's body, whose core was hit, visibly froze for a few seconds, and Sarlayan took this opportunity to withdraw more than ten meters away.
The armor-piercing arrows shot by Sylvanas used Stellagosa's magic power, and Stellagosa has never broken off her connection with this magic arrow.
"Da~"
Stellagosa, who had released her half-dragon transformation, snapped her fingers with a cold expression.
"burst!"
"puff!"
Following this instruction, a dull sound came from Magamanda's body.
Magamanda, who had been baring her teeth and claws just a moment ago in an attempt to continue the attack, suddenly threw herself onto the street without any warning, and fell to the ground with her legs spread out like mud, and there was no more movement.
"Huh~"
Sarlayan wiped the sweat that kept leaking from his forehead: "Finally we've got it done. It's really difficult to deal with this giant creature with incredible defense."
At this moment, Danmaku stepped forward and poured cold water on Sarlayan.
[This is just the beginning. Magamanda is half a flesh-and-blood creature, and armor-piercing arrows can at least penetrate its body.]
[When you meet the leader of the lava giants—Guremagg the Incinerator, that guy whose whole body is made of stone will probably be even more difficult to deal with.]
According to the barrage order, Gulemagg the Incinerator is the 8th BOSS of Molten Core.
Although the ranking of the barrages is not based on the strength of the Fire Lord, as the last barrier guarding the manager Exotus, Gulemange's combat effectiveness cannot be underestimated.
Sarlayan shook off the sweat from his head: "Gulemange is the target of the second phase. Let's complete the first phase of the plan first."
Sharlayan would not be so arrogant as to think that he could easily penetrate the Molten Core with such a small number of elite troops from the mortal realm.
The main purpose of the army is to deal with the endless fire elemental soldiers in the Molten Core. When facing the Fire Lord, they can only let high-end combat forces such as Sharlayan, Little Star, Sylvanas and Liadrin take over.
.
After planning with Danmaku, Sarlayan split the plan to conquer Molten Core into two stages.
In the first stage, we will rely on the existing troops to conquer. The plan is to temporarily stop the attack after killing the fifth boss, Baron Geddon.
Baron Geddon and Garr each kept half of the Imprisoned Skull of the Wind Chaser, and were nicknamed the left and right faces of the Wind Sword by the barrage.
The full name of the Wind Sword is Fury of Thunder and Blessed Sword of the Wind Chaser. The making principle of this artifact is actually very simple, which is to seal the elemental essence of Sunderland the Wind Chaser into the weapons he once used.
With Sarlayan's current status, a mere artifact is not enough to tempt him to take risks.
If he wanted to make a wind sword, he would definitely offend Sunderland the Wind Chaser. Sarlayan was not going to do this kind of thing.
What he needs is Sunderland's powerful wind elemental combat power. If he can get his help, the second stage of conquering Molten Core will become much easier.
However, Sarlayan does not need to consider the issue of gathering the left and right faces for the time being. The most important task at the moment is to repel the surprise attack launched by Gikhnas from behind the coalition forces.
Sarlayan turned to look at the front battlefield where he was still cleaning up the mess: "Lyras! How long are you going to wait? Get rid of those stupid dogs as soon as possible!"
