The demon wizard Leo recited an ancient and useful spell. Following his spell, the ground lit up with a faint purple light. A gust of wind blew through, and the dust on the ground was wiped away, revealing mysterious symbols. They followed a certain
A fixed rhythm beats, like breathing.
"This is the magic circle left by Lord Lich King Ner'zhul..." the demon wizard muttered to himself. Although he had already studied this magic circle in the classics given to him by Kel'Thuzad, when he actually saw it
, he was still shocked.
The complexity and grandeur of this array are breathtaking.
"How long will the resurrection ceremony take?" Terror Blade knows nothing about magic circles, and his task today is to protect this resurrection ceremony.
"About twenty days." Leo replied respectfully. He was very afraid of the power of the terrifying blade. This fallen elf with devil wings always gave people an unfathomable feeling.
"More than twenty days? So long?" Although Terror Blade guessed that this ritual would be complicated, it did not expect it to last for such a long time.
Leo replied: "I want to resurrect 200,000 career-changing warriors. Each soul must be cast by my own hands. Ten thousand can be resurrected a day. Plus the three days of activation time for the magic circle, it will take more than 20 days."
It’s very tight.”
"Okay." Horrible Blade took out a round jar from the inventory. The round jar was the size of a human head and was completely blue-grey. There were four ferocious ghost heads carved around the jar, and there was a circular lid on the top of the jar.
.
This is the Urn of the Dead containing the souls of 200,000 transferred warriors. It is also called the Shrine of Shadows. It was built by the Lich King himself more than 10,000 years ago and is endowed with supreme magical power.
The Urn of the Dead is different from some imitation shrines of shadow in the Duota Continent. The upper limit of the souls it can hold can reach 1 million.
Terror Blade took out another lavender gem. The gem looked like a fragment that fell from a larger spherical gem, with uneven gaps on the edge.
This is a fragment of the Eye of Dalaran, which can provide energy for the operation of the resurrection circle.
The Eye of Dalaran, the Book of Medivh and the Scepter of Sargeras are all three artifacts that can be used to open the Dark Portal, but so far, all three artifacts have been broken.
The demon wizard Leo respectfully took the fragments and the Shadow Shrine and placed them in the center of the resurrection circle. Then, he began to dance a weird and funny dance, and his somewhat pudgy body was as crazy as epilepsy.
Shaking, the sheep-headed staff in his hand shone with a burgundy light as it swayed - that was the color of the finger of death.
"Let's go out and wait for those guards' flies." The Terror Blade was really not interested in Leo's dance. He turned around and walked slowly towards the entrance on the top floor.
Although the three evil orc brothers were dissatisfied with the Terror Blade, they did not dare to disobey his orders. As for Mask of the Void, he was used to remaining silent.
The Terror Blade was the first to walk out of the hall. The three evil orc brothers walked side by side with Mask of the Void. The eldest brother of the three brothers, Luut, was even more afraid of the blue Mask of the Void next to him. He always felt that there was a strange long thing on this face.
The monster is more terrifying than the terrifying blade.
After closing the huge stone door on the top floor, Terror Blade sat down cross-legged, and his broad wings shrouded his entire body. Terror Blade looked at the dark passage, and a devilish smile appeared at the corner of his mouth. My dear brother, I don’t know you.
Have you ever gotten lost?
With the help of the Eye of Sargeras, Gu Nansheng and others avoided all potential dangers in the Dragon Sleeping Temple. He made a preliminary estimate that between the third and fifth floors of the Dragon Sleeping Temple, there were more than thirty black dragons and sleeping dragons.
Seven headed twilight dragon.
Gu Nansheng can't estimate what level the Twilight Dragon is, but since it was created by Deathwing, it must be very powerful. It's better not to mess with these guys...
Magina said: "After the loss just now, our strength may not be as good as the natural disaster. When the time comes, I will hold my brother, and the others will entangle the remaining strong men from the natural disaster. Mr. Nan, you only need to flash to the resurrection circle to kill the demon."
The wizard Leo is fine, it’s best to destroy the Urn of the Dead along the way, then our mission will be completed.”
Gu Nansheng thought for a moment and said, "Okay, I will come back after I kill Leo to help you deal with the terrifying blade."
Magina stubbornly shook his head. He slightly tightened his grip on the Wangshuo Magic Blade and said firmly: "I must face this duel with my brother, even if my chances of winning are very slim."
Gu Nansheng knew that he was determined to have a fair showdown with the terrifying blade, so he stopped talking.
There are ninety-nine floors in Longmian Temple, each floor is 100 meters high. The entire temple is in the shape of a square cone with an inclination of 52 degrees, which is the most stable angle in nature.
At this time, Gu Nansheng and others had already reached the ninety-seventh floor. They went around and around the twists and turns of the Longmian Temple, and the total distance they walked was more than two hundred kilometers.
Gu Nansheng said: "There are five natural disaster warriors on the ninety-eighth floor. Judging from the aura, two of them are super strong, and the other three are relatively weak. They should be evil orcs. There is one natural disaster warrior on the ninety-ninth floor. He should be
That demon wizard Leo."
These days, Majina is no longer surprised by Gu Nansheng's keen perception. This perverted guy can easily see through several layers of space.
After hearing Gu Nansheng's words, Majina looked a little solemn. The number of survivors of the Scourge Legion exceeded his imagination. He asked: "One of the two super strong men should be the Terror Blade. Who is the other one?"
Gu Nansheng observed it carefully for a while and replied: "It's the Mask of the Void."
"Void Mask?"
Magina took a deep breath, and the other twelve people's Adam's apples rolled violently, and their expressions turned ugly for a moment.
Of course they remember not long ago, when Mask of the Void and Terror Blade teamed up to attack Dalaran and were unstoppable. It goes without saying that Terror Blade is powerful. Mask of the Void may not be worse than Terror Blade. His control
The ability of time and space is so weird that people don't know how to deal with it at all.
"Are you sure it's him?"
Gu Nansheng nodded, "OK." He naturally knew the heroes of Dota, especially Masked Void, who had such distinctive features, so even though it was the first time he saw Masked Void, he still recognized him at a glance.
"Void Mask... I'm in trouble now. I didn't expect him to come too. I didn't even notice him when I was in the Obsidian Temple before."
Gu Nansheng said: "He should be hidden in the gaps in space, I didn't pay attention at the time."
Magina calmed down and calmly analyzed the current situation. Although the opponent only had six people, these six people were all very strong.
At the beginning, the Guards had thirty-two people, which was superior in numbers, but their individual strength was weak. Natural disasters were just the opposite. Originally, the total strength of the two parties was not much different, but because of the devastating blow to the Obsidian Temple,
The strength of the guards is obviously not as good as the natural disasters.
The six people who died in the natural disaster were just minor characters. The remaining six escaped from being chased by thousands of Destroyers with their true abilities. In terms of strength, they are probably not only at the fifth level but also at the peak of the fourth level.
On the other hand, the remaining fourteen people in the Guards, except for Gu Nansheng and Magina, the other twelve people barely survived under the protection of Gu Nansheng, which was not even a little bit worse than the natural disaster.
What's more, the Scourge Legion also has a sixth-level Mask of the Void.
Magina asked without hope, "Mr. Nan, if you fight against Mask of the Void, what are your chances of winning?"
Gu Nansheng answered truthfully: "I don't know if we don't fight."
Because of the emergence of Mask of the Void, the original division of labor no longer applies, and Magina had to start to reconsider. Even if Mr. Nan can fight to a draw with Mask of the Void, and the remaining twelve people entangle the three evil orcs, but he
I still can't defeat the terrifying blade, let alone a demon wizard casting spells in the resurrection circle...
No matter how you look at it, there is not much chance of winning this battle.
"General Magina, do you think this operation...should be considered in the long term?" A middle-aged man with chestnut hair among the twelve people hesitated slightly and tentatively put forward his opinion.
Magina frowned slightly after hearing this, "How do we plan for the long term? The resurrection ceremony has begun now. Don't forget that it took us a month just to get here. Do we need to spend another two months traveling to and from the Holy Land?
Moving reinforcements? By then, 200,000 undead warriors might have reached Baghdad!" He turned to the others and asked, "Do you think so too?"
He looked around at the soldiers around him, and there seemed to be a pair of piercing eyes under the black goggles, pointing directly at people's hearts through the goggles.
"This..." Several other people dodge their eyes, not daring to look at Magina, even though they knew that the other party had lost his eyesight.
The meaning expressed by their expressions at this time was extremely obvious.
Magina looked at everyone coldly, her voice getting deeper and deeper, "Are you scared?"
These twelve people really began to be afraid after hearing about the remaining power of the natural disaster. This is actually understandable. These people are willing to come to Longmian Temple to carry out this dangerous task. They are already very courageous. Now they have finally made it here, but they have to face
Naturally, he didn't want to fight a life-and-death battle.
It's okay to sacrifice a little for the common people in the world, but if you sacrifice your life... I'm afraid there won't be many such noble people in this world.
At least Gu Nansheng understood what these people were thinking at this time. If he were in their position, he would have walked away long ago.
The atmosphere fell into dead silence for a moment, and the twelve people looked a little embarrassed. They were either looking at the dome or staring at the floor. Although they knew in their hearts that this behavior of retreating in the face of battle was shameful, it was better to die than live.
Magina held the Wangshuo Demonic Blade tightly, and for a long time, he exhaled heavily, as if his fighting spirit had suddenly been lost.
He may not be afraid of death, but he cannot require his subordinates to be like himself.
His brother once said: "No matter what path you choose, as a man, you must know how to rely on yourself."
But now Magina really doesn't know what to do. He suddenly feels that his life is full of failures. He was bullied as a child and needed his brother to stand up. His mother has been miserable all her life, but he can do nothing. He can only watch her depressed and sad.
Finally, when he became an adult, he met a girl he liked, but he didn't dare to confess his love, so he could only stand in the corner and watch her silently. After that, he failed to stop his brother's depravity and watched helplessly as he slaughtered his own people.
Later, he blinded his own eyes with his own hands and followed in his brother's footsteps, trying to stop him from falling deeper and deeper, but he was only pulled further and further away by his brother.
Thinking of this, Magina sighed and looked up at the ninety-ninth floor of Longmian Temple, his expression full of loneliness, as if he could only go so far and look up at his brother from this angle.
The soldiers of the Guards couldn't bear to see Magina's appearance. The chestnut-haired middle-aged man continued: "General Magina, it's not that we are timid. If our sacrifice can bring victory in the battle, we will definitely not
I will frown, but now I feel that we were destined to die in the past. You and Mr. Nan can deal with one of the Terror Blade and the Mask of the Void together, but what about the other one? Should we deal with it? What's more, there is another
Demonic wizard."
Magina had nothing to say, and then Gu Nansheng coughed lightly, "Do you mean to prepare to return immediately and inform the guards to be prepared to face an army of 200,000 transferred soldiers?"
Gu Nansheng's words were a bit sarcastic, and the person who spoke was immediately embarrassed, but it was obvious that this was what he meant...
Fear of death and greed are the labels of humans. They never have the courage and sense of honor that the orcs have.
At that time, during the first trial, Gu Nansheng and the Orcs faced the fire demon Ragnaros. There was also a huge disparity in strength. However, the Orc warriors were not afraid of death. Their first thought was to defend their hometown, not themselves.
's safety.
Gu Nansheng was not qualified to criticize others, because he himself was not a noble person, but this matter related to his interests, so he had to stand up and speak, "This idea is not bad, but I remember that I met him along the way.
There are hundreds of sleeping black dragons and dozens of sleeping twilight dragons. Because there are so many, I can't remember their locations for a while. If I want to notify the guards as soon as possible, it is more convenient to use the flash to get out. I wonder if you can
Can you keep up?"
When Gu Nansheng said this, the other twelve people were stunned. It was a threat, a naked threat. The most speechless thing was that he actually asked if others could follow him if he flashed out. It was simply shameless to a certain extent.
.
However, Gu Nansheng did have the capital to threaten them. He brought twelve people here with his powerful perception, but he and Magina could both use flash to leave, but what about the others?
They don't have the map of Longmian Fortress like the natural disasters. If they rush out without Gu Nansheng's guidance, they will basically die.
In order to achieve a shocking effect, Gu Nansheng deliberately exaggerated the number of dragons ten times.
The expressions of the twelve Guards soldiers all turned ugly for a moment. If they rushed forward and died, at least they would be remembered as a martyr. If they ran away and died, their death would be in vain, and they might even be killed.
People laughed their heads off.
At this time, the twelve people's intestines were green with regret. If they had known that there was a Mask of the Void, the fool would have followed them. Now they are riding a tiger with difficulty.
In fact, they came to participate in this operation not only because of the responsibility of guarding the guards, but also because of the high rewards promised by the Holy Land, including top-level skills and sub-artifact-level equipment.
Majina looked at Gu Nansheng's face as a profiteer and was speechless.
He was really not used to threatening his subordinates like this, but at this time he had no choice. For the sake of the Guards Corps and the end of this war, he had no choice but to acquiesce in Gu Nansheng's use of such despicable methods.
The twelve guards looked at each other with uncertain expressions. Finally, the middle-aged man with chestnut hair spoke again, "Mr. Nan, although you saved us, you can't force us to die. We are not
I'm scared of others. As far as I know, there are not as many black dragons and twilight dragons in Dragon Sleep Temple as you said. If we go back the way we came, there is no chance of survival."
Gu Nansheng said coldly: "Then please do as you please."
The chestnut-haired middle-aged man's voice stagnated and he was too embarrassed to speak. Another middle-aged man who looked like a mage said: "Mr. Nan, it's not that we are afraid of death and don't dare to go back. It's just that there is really no point in dying like this."
Gu Nansheng felt that the other party's tone had room for maneuver, so he gave the other party a step down at the right time and said: "Yes, I admit what you said. If you retreat, you will indeed have a chance to survive, but I guarantee that if you continue
If we move forward, our chances of survival will be greater."
The chestnut-haired middle-aged man was overjoyed, "Can you elaborate? As long as we can see hope, we don't want to risk the lives of the people in the world."
In his heart, Gu Nansheng disliked this chestnut-haired guy. He was afraid of death just because he was afraid of death. He was so hypocritical to a certain extent.
Of course, he couldn't express this idea. He said: "We may not lose to natural disasters, but I need some time to prepare. You just need to wait for me here."...
"for how long?"
Gu Nansheng did a little calculation and said, "It can take as long as fifteen days, or as short as ten days."
Magina frowned and said: "It's been too long. Now the resurrection ceremony has begun. Ten days later, I'm afraid the terrifying blade will have led the army of transferred warriors to kill Baghdad."
Gu Nansheng said confidently: "This magic circle will take at least fifteen days to operate, but the demon wizard Leo is relatively weak. If he were to preside over it, I'm afraid it would take even longer."
Magina was stunned, "How do you know?"
Gu Nansheng said: "I have done some research on ancient magic formations."
In fact, it is more than just a little research. He has inherited all the memories of the Lich King, and his understanding of the ancient magic circle can dare to dominate the entire continent.
What's more, the resurrection circle in Longmian Temple was originally drawn by a lich. He knew the principles of the circle very clearly. He could even draw it again if Gu Nansheng was given two years.
Magina really couldn't understand why Gu Nansheng knew so much about the Resurrection of the Dead Array. Even if he was interested, where could he get any books on this subject?
Besides, human energy is limited. He is upgrading and studying magic. Where will he find the time to study the ancient magic circle of the undead?
Thinking of the word "time", Magina smiled bitterly. As a core member of the Holy Land, he naturally knew the details of Gu Nansheng. He was only in his twenties. It was already unimaginable for him to reach the level of a seventh-level enchanter at this age. No matter how much he knew,
An ancient magic circle of the undead seems not surprising.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but sigh, this Mr. Nan had too many secrets, and in comparison, his brother's terrifying blade, which he had always admired, seemed mediocre.
