The villain dies because he talks too much, and the good guy will also fall to the ground because he talks too much.
By the way, everything Duke said before can be classified as a mental attack!
It wasn't until the system prompted that the eternal dragon Androm from another timeline had died that Duke breathed a sigh of relief: "Damn, the Moonlight Holy Grail is too awesome!"
Duke was shocked to discover that because The Legendary Sword of Gandalf the White Swordmaster was a rare and unique magical sword that enjoyed complete magical bonuses, The Moonlight Holy Grail was effective.
Moreover, in this place where you can't tell the difference between day and night, the awesome Moonlight Holy Grail can actually trigger two special effects at the same time - spell haste and critical strike together!
What was even more incredible was that in this space crack where time could be compressed and infinitely extended, attack speed and critical hit damage could be stacked almost infinitely.
This is how the completely unreasonable miracle of 1024 swords in 3 seconds came about.
Such a brave Eternal Dragon was actually chopped to pieces by Duke's melee attack.
Duke quickly looted the things on Andorm's body, calmed down hurriedly, sensed the power of Nozdormu, and flew back to the time and space Road that Nozdormu had set for him in the long river of time.
After all, Duke does not have the ability to travel through time on his own. The reason he can survive in the long river of time is entirely because of the power of Nozdormu protecting him.
Here comes the problem.
As an insurance policy, Nozdormu must have injected some extra power into Duke in the process of sending him back to the human world, but no matter how much, it would not be double.
According to the system's estimation, it is about 130 percent.
However, just now in the gap of time and space, even though Duke performed a beautiful light step above the long river of time and made a 100% dodge, he still consumed a lot of time power because of the additional entry into the gap of time and space.
"Only 98% of the originally required energy left?" Duke narrowed his eyes.
right!
According to calculations, assuming that the energy required to successfully return to the original Dark Portal sixteen years ago is 100, Duke now has 98.
Don't underestimate the loss of two percentage points.
A slight mistake can lead to a huge mistake!
If Duke kneels, it will definitely kneel at these two percentage points.
"It seems that we can only rely on this." Duke looked at the unknown energy ball wrapped in arcane energy in his hand: "System, start analyzing!"
That was what was obtained by killing Andom. It was not some gold coins or some legendary equipment, but a ball of power.
Duke felt a slight pain in his brain, which was a side effect of the system AI extracting Duke's memory at a high speed.
As a student with a minor in engineering, Duke's knowledge of physics and astronomy was just OK. When the system AI combined a lot of modern knowledge with the power of time snatched from the Eternal Dragon, and analyzed it together with the Slowdown spell of the Arcane Master, a mysterious magic spell broke into Duke's brain - Time Acceleration!
"Speed up? I can only use this little power once!" Duke smiled bitterly.
According to the remaining time force, Duke would obviously fall into the time period sixteen years before the Dark Portal. Either he would go to a time point before his original body crossed over, or worse, he would go to an Azeroth world between the first and sixteenth years after the Dark Portal, where there was already a Duke.
If I use too much acceleration and it happens at a later time, my (Duke's) empire will be over.
"Fuck! I hate the Eternal Dragon the most! The second one I hate is Nozdormu. He couldn't even protect me after traveling through time, and you still have the nerve to ask me to work for you!? Bah! Whoever wants to go can go from now on, don't ask me and my people to go!"
Cursing as he was, Duke had to calm down and concentrate on the long river of time. Through the time fragments that the system kept scanning, he confirmed where his destination was.
When Duke saw the clip of Emperor Thoradin, he realized that they were getting close.
Then Duke saw the clip of Aegwynn conquering the world.
Then Aegwynn beat up Sargeras who was pretending to be his grandson...
When Duke's retina showed that only 2% of the power of time was left, Duke was cheered up!
"Now!"
Duke started to accelerate!
Suddenly, he injected Andom's small power into the space-time shield around him, and Duke's whole body burst into a stronger stream of light. As if a comet fell into the atmosphere, Duke's whole body glowed, dragging a long tail of flame, passing over the long river of time.
He saw the opening of the Dark Portal, saw himself killing Medivh who was possessed by Sargeras, saw Duke, the leader of the Alliance, sweeping across the Horde, and saw him returning from the Void and organizing the Alliance to fight against the Scourge again...
Finally, he saw his destination - Sixteen Years at the Dark Gate.
In front of him, it seemed that because Rhonin and the others had just entered this part of the time node, Duke, with the help of the system, could still see four small holes that had just opened and had not yet been closed at that point in time.
"Let me in!"
Duke was driving too fast, and breaking into that moment was like driving a car at a speed of 200 kilometers per hour, reaching his hand out of the car window and pinching a strand of hair that was blown past the window by the strong wind with two fingers.
This kind of insanely precise operation could be done better than Duke who possessed the system AI.
Even if Nozdormu himself came, he could only do this by pulling each other's strength, rather than crashing into it like Duke did when he lacked strength.
Duke did it, he really hit his target.
He succeeded! He also failed!
Because he did hit the time bubble representing the time point he was in, but the next moment, he was bounced out.
During the sixteen-year time bubble at the Dark Gate, a black force that obviously came from the Eternal Dragon was blocking Duke's entry!
"Fuck you—"
With the momentum of castration, Duke's whole body continued to fly forward in the long river of time.
The only thing to be thankful for was that Duke's collision seemed to have finally attracted the attention of that bastard dragon Nozdormu. Above the huge time bubble, a huge bronze dragon claw stretched out, trying to grab Duke who was flying forward at high speed.
Nozdormu failed! He caught nothing!
Even though it was just a little bit off, but a failure is a failure!
"Nozdormu! You useless dragon king! I won't let you go even if I become a ghost!" Duke was angry! Duke cried! Duke was desperate!
However, at the very end, the system suddenly said: "The Time and Space Anchor spell analysis is complete. We found a nearest anchor point ahead. Do you want to enter?"
"Yes!" Duke said firmly!
Sixteen years after the Dark Gate, this was destined to be a turbulent year.
Before the winter of the year had passed, the Alliance launched a large-scale offensive on the continent of Lordaeron and recaptured the city of Lordaeron, which had once fallen and changed hands twice.
On August 12, the Alliance received bad news - of the six powerful men who participated in the secret operation of the Nozdormu organization, only four returned.
The old orc Brox died in battle, and the Horde did not disclose the exact cause of his death, only announcing that he died at the hands of the Burning Legion in a secret operation that could not be announced to the public. All the Horde leaders, led by Thrall and Grom, personally attended Brox's state funeral.
The other is Duke, the former leader of the Alliance. Even though he was under Kil'jaeden's fatal curse, he still forcibly reversed the curse and expelled the dark forces. He was a great hero who survived and disappeared during a secret mission.
Although this was not the first time Duke had disappeared, this time his disappearance obviously caused a bigger stir.
Because the four survivors said with great conviction that it was a bronze dragon that stopped Duke, several major countries in the alliance reacted extremely strongly.
Sylvanas, Queen of the Sin'dorei Kingdom.
Queen Jaina of Kul Tiras.
Calia, Queen of Lordaeron.
The Alliance heroines Alleria and Vereesa, as well as Ilucia, who has a great influence on the Southshore city-state, all sent the most severe inquiries to the bronze Dragonflight.
Nozdormu could have ignored these mundane forces, but the problem was that his own big sister, the red dragon queen Alexstrasza, came to his house in person and almost destroyed his lair.
The moon goddess Elune also descended several times, which made Nozdormu very worried.
Time passed day by day, and Alleria and the other girls waited day by day, but every day was disappointment.
"We should be at ease. Duke might be fooling around with 'that person'!" Alleria smiled bitterly.
Vanessa reported her on the first day she came back.
However, the reaction of 'that person' was also very strange, and he firmly denied the indirect inquiries of Alleria and others. However, the Alliance and the Night Elves were not truly allied, and the five girls of the Duke family could not find a better reason to bother them.
Anyway, the Moon Temple dealt with them in a lukewarm manner.
In fact, the leaders of a country are very busy. No king these days is so lucky that he can just be a human stamping machine and get by. Every family has its own troubles.
Sin'dorei and Kul Tiras are busy rebuilding, and Ilucia will also use the power of the Southshore city-states and the Edmund family merchant caravan to help these two families.
In the end, the only ones who were still available were Windrunner's eldest sister and third sister.
When Tyrande is free, she will meet Alleria or Vereesa. If she is not free, she can just be left alone.
The night elves are having a hard time. On the one hand, they have to deal with disaster relief from the huge explosion on Mount Hyjal, and on the other hand, they have to face various threats.
Sentinels will need to be sent to monitor the new arrivals of Naga and Satyr in Eastern Azshara.
Although the southern tribes once joined forces with the Horde to fight against the Burning Legion, the constant logging applications from the Horde made the night elves very unhappy. In fact, the two tribes also had border frictions in the StoneTeron Mountains.
On the western Black Sea coast, a large number of night elves who lost their homes were waiting for ships to cross the sea. Because in Teldrassil, Fandral Staghelm advocated planting a second world tree there, and at the same time tried to negotiate with the Wyrmrest Temple, trying to ask the three dragon kings to continue to bestow blessings like the world tree Nordrassil in the past - to put it bluntly, the night elves lost their immortality and eternal youth, and many elves felt a sense of crisis.
Winterspring in the north was once again invaded by the undead who called themselves the Forsaken.
In the central Felwood and Ashenvale regions, the demonic remnants of the Burning Legion are still wreaking havoc.
It's absolutely reasonable for Tyrande to say she's busy.
After being rejected many times in a row, the Alleria sisters rarely came to Teldrassil.
Time passed by like this, and in the blink of an eye it was the beginning of the seventeenth year of the Dark Portal.
The Horde's main city, Orgrimmar, was announced to be completed. At the same time, the Horde's territory also expanded a lot, basically reaching the edge of the night elf territory in the north, and bordering Dustwallow Marsh and Theramore in the south.
In view of this, after some discussions, the Alliance decided at the throne meeting to agree to the peace treaty proposed by Thrall as the night elves were reluctant to accept the Alliance's olive branch.
In June of the same year, Varian Wrynn, the new permanent leader of the Alliance, personally sailed across the Endless Sea and came to Theramore, preparing to meet with Thrall to sign a peace treaty between the Alliance and the Horde.
As a result, Varian disappeared unexpectedly, and became confused after returning.
The Alliance suspected that it was a conspiracy of the Horde, and some conspiracy theorists even directly accused the wizards and warlocks of the Horde of doing it.
Thrall was speechless, and the relationship between the Alliance and the Horde suddenly became tense...
Time continues to pass...
I don't know how many days, months, or years have passed.
A huge ripple suddenly appeared in the thick clouds in the night sky. A comet fell from the sky, streaking across the sky, leaving a long tail of flame, and crashed onto a huge lake.
"boom!"
One stone can cause a thousand ripples!
The huge waves caused chaos on the beautiful lakeshore. After the short and fierce waves like a tsunami hit the lakeshore, everything was in a mess.
A human body, like a salted fish, was washed ashore.
"Am I... dead?" The human body was in a daze, and only saw a pair of white boots with gold embroidery standing in his blurry vision, and then he lost consciousness.
After an unknown amount of time, Duke woke up.
The moment Duke regained consciousness, he knew something was wrong!
Because he found himself tied to a rack with his eyes blindfolded.
No, no! This is definitely bad!
Duke suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
If they were not hostile forces, they would never tie him up like this, and they would not put countless seals on him to forcibly suppress the circulation of the magic circuits in his body.
It would be fine if the system AI was functioning normally, but after crossing the time barrier, the system AI seemed to have temporarily crashed.
Who is it then? Which faction is it?
Logically speaking, the only people in Azeroth who hate him so much are probably the Forsaken, right?
Damn it, am I so evil? How could I fall into the hands of those bones all of a sudden?
Or has history changed drastically again, and I have come to a point in time when the situation has collapsed?
Suddenly, a deliberately low voice sounded in Duke's ears. Duke could not tell anything about the hoarse voice except that it should be a female voice.
"Edmund Duke! Do you know what sin you have committed?" Along with the sharp questioning, there was also the sound of a long whip hitting the ground.
