Menethil's Power

Chapter 234 Stromkar
"You came just in time, man, we've been in this damn grave for at least three days and lost most of our supplies the first time we got attacked by these goddamn monsters, you're a little too late Brother Bronzebeard, the explorer, is about to give a full account here, hiccup~" Brian, who was stuffing dry food into his mouth, suddenly stopped chattering, obviously choking.

They were in a notch at this time, a very standard defensive position, so a barrier would allow the three bewildered adventurers to recuperate for a while, replenish some energy, and explain some of the exact situation they knew by the way. As for Isaacs' obvious attitude of finding someone to take the blame, Muradin and Brian are extremely righteous.

"The fact is that we have obtained the necessary information from the Norgannon Disc, and based on the last successful exploration of Uldaman, the Association believes that the excavation of Tyr's tomb can be carried out, and soon got the Lordain There is nothing wrong with all the legal and formal processes.” Muradin said almost impeccably, “If there is any mistake, it is that we take it for granted that the Tomb of Tyr and Auda Mann is similar, so the weapons they carry are all physical, and they cannot exert their maximum effect in the face of these overwhelming shadow crawlers."

The so-called physics-oriented weapons refer to the kind of grenades that made noise before and other dangerous explosives jointly developed by Blizzard and Ironforge over the past few years. If you want to restrain a certain energy, you must add The opposite energy crystal powder.

Isaacs was a little stunned, "Are you going to blame everything I have initiated on the exploration of the ruins of Uldaman? Or should you condemn the ignorance and arrogance of my father's short-sighted subordinates? They reported and approved your application so quickly , without doing any investigation?"

"The reason is very simple, Your Highness." Uther obviously understood the truth, and the paladin who was maintaining the barrier said without looking back: "These dwarves carry your tokens, and they are 'Lordaeron's extremely close strategic allies. ’, Oh, by the way, you have repeatedly emphasized the importance of this title to us old guys in charge.”

Although he couldn't see Uther's face, Isaacs felt that there was a hint of teasing in the old paladin's emphasis, but he was indeed a little speechless, and could only smile wryly, "So, this Everything started because of me.”

Obviously, this is the consequence of changing history. Although Isaacs has always thought that he is steadily fine-tuning the direction of the world, things beyond his control will inevitably happen.

"Don't blame yourself too much, no one blames you." Brian, who was relieved, thumped Isaacs' elbow in a natural gesture of relief, "Everything is the arrangement of fate."

"Yes, everything is the arrangement of fate." Isaacs repeated, but there was a different meaning in his tone. He no longer pursued the root cause of this out-of-control situation, but shifted his attention to the reality.

Although the current information is still very limited, the existence of the Bronze Beard Brothers is enough to explain some problems.Although Brian has always called himself "a strong man like me", the undeniable fact is that this guy is still not a hero-level combat power, but he was able to jump around this place for so long, which shows that the awakened monster Zakaz is also extremely weak.

After all, there are still decades before Zakaz really wakes up. From this point of view, the Bronzebeard Brothers do not seem to have made a big mistake, but instead had a positive impact-after all, it is a huge hidden danger lurking in Lordaeron, and it was triggered early. The impact of such a malignant tumor is obviously much smaller than that of waiting for it to mature.

"Now it seems that we are the only ones who can kill the resurrected monster." Isaacs concluded, his eyes turned to the last member of the three-person expedition team, "Mr. Harrison Jones, I can borrow some of your This 'amazing discovery'?"

"Of course, Your Highness." The explorer who had been introduced by Muradin said very gracefully. He took off the box behind his back and opened it very gentlemanly, so the ancient artifact, the Emperor's Sword, the origin of all these One of them appeared in front of Isaacs.

There is no slanting light, and there is no special feeling. There is a dark golden giant sword lying quietly in the box. The style is simple and simple. It looks like an old antique, not a powerful sword weapons.

Isaacs stared at this great sword that was of great significance to the entire human race. This weapon was the first full-body artifact with a prominent historical status in the true sense that he had seen, but it was a pity that it was not There is no phenomenon of Huaguang's masterpiece artifact recognizing its owner. The famous Scamdor Warbreaker does not look much different from ordinary epic weapons.

"Tough and thick, it will not change its sharpness even after a thousand years." Harrison commented: "There is no doubt that such a thing should be placed in a museum for people to admire."

"There is also no doubt that this sword must still have hidden power, and stimulating this power will greatly improve our current situation." Isaacs raised Scamdor, the handle of the sword felt slightly cold, but it was only That's all, there is no special feeling. The young paladin tried to inject his thoughts into it, but he didn't sense the will of this artifact. He tried to inject holy energy again, but there was no response.

"How did you find it?" Isaacs asked Muradin.

"We entered this ruin three days ago. Although it was a little dark, there was nothing too abnormal here. We kept going deep, and there were no obstacles except for a few tentacle-shaped monsters, so we found a huge monster in the deepest part. Although this monster is just a corpse, its distorted image makes people shudder." Muradin paused slightly after he narrated.

"It's like mixing a huge insect with a lot of carrion. It's horrible, evil, and extremely disgusting. Well, damn it, I shouldn't think about its appearance while eating." Brian continued. .

"That is Zakaz, the evil monster suppressed by Tire, the source of all this chaos and darkness." Tawad looked solemn,

"Now we also understand what a big mistake we have made." Muradin sighed, "But at that time, this monster's body was lifeless, and there was a sword stuck in its ugly and huge head. It was Stromkar, we believe that it was the Excalibur that killed the monster and that Thoradin died here. Harrison believes that we must bring this Excalibur back, and we cannot let the glory of the hero be sealed in this."

"We guessed many things right, but the only thing we overlooked was that the monster named Zakaz was not completely dead." Harrison continued with a complex expression: "It's not very difficult to pull out Stromkar. , but when I pulled out this Excalibur, the monster's huge body suddenly trembled violently, and a large amount of terrifying and dark liquid gushed out from its body, turning into these deformed creatures we saw, and at the same time, it was thick and Its dark tentacles broke through the ground, apparently it has been dormant for a long time."

"So you released such a terrifying monster like this?" Bishop Helen, who had been listening all the time, couldn't help but asked, and the old pastor asked with an incredulous and horrified expression.

"There is no doubt that everything we have encountered before shows that the situation is already very bad, and the only thing we should do now is to solve the problem instead of investigating the origin." Isaacs spoke, and he looked at Muradin, "you Zakaz, who couldn't resist the resurrection, could only escape, but he still couldn't find a way to leave this ruin, right?"

"That's it, even if we left a mark before, we can't find a way out at all, as if the whole ruins suddenly turned into a sealed tomb."

"Similarly, we were unable to find the artifact left by Tyr. It seems that Zakaz's control over illusion is beyond our knowledge. I can hardly feel any illusory breath. I want to find out the source of this illusion. It will inevitably take a lot of time, and what we currently lack is time, because there is no way of knowing when this evil will spread in large numbers." Isaacs concluded: "Then there seems to be only one road before us to go."

The young prince swung Scamdor heavily across the air, "Let's put this sword back into Zakaz's forehead!"

Whether in honor, duty or current situation, it is the only option.

There was a faint flicker of light on Scamdor's blade, but it was too faint to attract anyone's attention.

"A bold and rational decision." Uther said. "Since Zakaz has used illusion to cover our sense of direction, but these shadow creatures originating from its body cannot be hidden, and their source has always been a fixed location."

"So we just need to follow the clues, let's kill them!" Brian, who had basically recovered, yelled.

This is indeed the case, the creeping shadow creatures have been emerging from a constant direction, and the cleric squad that joined the Bronzebeard Brothers quickly advanced, and Stromkar was taken back into the box. Almost indistinguishable from a large fire stick.

Naturally, there are many gaps for communication in the low-intensity battle. In the process, Isaacs came to a conclusion based on Muradin's more detailed description, that is, judging from the number and energy level of shadow creatures, Zha Katz's strength did not seem to increase after waking up, and even regressed, which is why the three of Muradin were able to persist until now.

This is very interesting. Isaacs couldn't help but make a guess. Could it be that there was something wrong with Zakaz's body because of the early awakening?

This seems like good news.

"Be careful!" Uther, who was at the front of the team, reminded, a purple-black thick tentacle that was different from the enemy he encountered before, and Muradin had described before suddenly sprang out from the ground and attacked everyone, but was immediately captured by Bishop Hai. Ryan's mantra shield intercepted, and then was cut off by Isaacs' sword.This attack did not cause any impact, but it illustrated a problem, they were very close to their destination.

More tentacles emerged, they seemed to be a texture of half-flesh energy, at the same time there were a few vague roars, and two extremely thick humanoid creatures appeared, their size and the strongest eating Humans and demons are almost the same, the tentacles on the face and limbs reveal their identities-the faceless ones, the iconic servants of the ancient gods.

"It's these damned octopus faces again, remember, you can only kill them if you grind them into a pulp!" Muradin yelled, and lightning flashed from the warhammer, and then charged towards the two faceless men with the force of thunder .

According to the standards of holy priests, Bishop Helen is still very qualified. A series of power words were blessed on Muradin almost instantly, and Uther also ignited golden holy energy all over his body to launch a holy blow to the enemy.Although the two faceless men both had hero-level energy levels, they would quickly turn into ashes under such a powerful offensive.

"Quick! That monster is inside!" Muradin urged, and everyone accelerated into an empty hall, but the scene they saw next was a bit unexpected, the distorted mess in the middle of the hall that looked like a large mass of dirty flesh and blood. The creature is undoubtedly Zakaz, its whole body exudes a corrupt, evil and powerful aura, even a little bit of this aura is enough to arouse the deepest fear in the heart, but this monster is very manic and angry at this time, it seems to be trapped in There was a fight.

Opposite Zakaz is a slender figure floating in the air. She is covered in a dark robe, exuding a faint shadow. Only the half white chin exposed under the hood shows her identity as a woman. She holds a The strange purple-black dagger, to some extent, the weapon is more eye-catching than the owner.Between the woman and the monster is a huge ball of pitch-black energy exuding an extremely pure atmosphere of void. The group surged down, turning into the kind of shadow creature that Isaacs and the others had encountered before.

Who is this woman?what is she doing?This question popped up in the hearts of everyone, but there was only one exception. Bishop Helen seemed to know the answer. The old pastor pointed at the woman under the black mage's robe tremblingly, with extreme surprise and hatred in his tone, "It turns out It's you! Natalie! It's you who caused this evil!" He looked hysterical and completely lost his mind for a moment, "You bloody heretic!"

Isaacs' complexion changed, "Stop! Helen!" He yelled sharply.

But it was too late. The emotionally agitated old bishop almost immediately launched his most powerful attack. A blazing holy fire with a bright light rushed towards the person he called Nata with lightning speed. Li's woman flew away.
