The arrow is so long that it exceeds the normal concept of an arrow.
Normally, only a crossbow could handle such a long and huge arrow.
Sylvanas has a good idea -
She performed the one-legged stand with ease, stretching out her long beautiful legs to hold the hand guards of Solidal Fury of the Stars. Her arms were stretched to their maximum strength, causing her streamlined muscles to swell slightly, stretching the bowstring.
"drink--"
It was just a low roar, but it was like the sound of spring thunder.
It triggered thousands of lightning shadows, and the next moment, the entire greenhouse of life was filled with the buzzing sound after the thunder and lightning.
Freya was stunned for a moment, and found that she seemed to have been struck by thousands of lightning bolts.
This is an illusion brought about by trance.
Her senses had been completely blinded, and she didn't notice at all that an illusory electric pattern stretched from the front of Sylvanas' bow to her forehead.
"ah--"
"Hiss——"
There were two very strange sounds. First there was Freya's scream after being shot by an arrow, and then there was the sound of the wind and thunder arrow breaking through the wind.
Even Sylvanas herself didn't know whether the arrow just now exceeded the speed of sound.
She only knew that her arrow had hit the target.
The arrow hit its target perfectly, and the sharp arrow pierced the titan Guardian's forehead. Most of the lightning arrow was deeply embedded in his forehead.
From the beginning to the end, Sylvanas never thought of killing Freya completely.
It is a technical job to inflict enough damage on the opponent to wake him up, but not to use too much force and kill him directly.
Especially when Sylvanas doesn't have any blunt force attack skills...
It seems that the effect is good now.
That thunder arrow acted as a lightning rod.
Sylvanas connected her ten fingers to the void, and focused more on drawing the power of thunder from the wind elemental realm and injecting it into Freya's forehead.
"Ah - wow - woo woo - I... what am I doing? Yogg-Saron... Master... No, you are a prisoner! Get out of my mind! No! Master, I have no intention of blaspheming your divine name... wow!" Freya not only covered her head in pain, but also tried to pull the Queen's small thunder arrow off her forehead.
How can this be possible! ?
Sylvanas is also angry!
She continued to raise her left hand high, and her five white jade-like fingers continued to draw the thunder, injecting the lightning into Freya's head. Her right hand produced a lightning whip from the void and lashed at Freya fiercely again and again.
Sylvanas, wearing long boots, was like the incarnation of thunder, with lightning flashing in every move she made: "Stupid Guardian! Wake up now!"
The scene was extremely bizarre: a tiny elf beat a ten-story-tall female giant to the ground, crushing all the stagnant trees and charred wood around her into powder.
If Duke had the time to see this scene, he might have worried that Sylvanas might have awakened some strange attributes...
Too bad Duke wasn't available.
In fact, he became busy after Queen Sylvanas, Onyxia and Vashj left.
It's simple, General Vezax is coming over from the Stairs of Madness.
As the best among the Faceless Men and the most loyal lackey of the Ancient God Yogg-Saron, Vezax was clearly aware of the possible consequences of letting Duke and his gang attack those unreliable guardians.
He chose to take the initiative!
Duke's original plan was to have the four great guards of Archavon work together to hold off Vezax. If possible, they would neither win nor lose, dragging Vezax until Duke defeated the remaining three guardians, and then gather all the heroes to collectively kill Yogg-Saron.
There are two keys to this plan. First, General Vezax must not die. If he dies early, just as Loken's death will attract Algalon the Observer, his death will definitely stimulate Yogg-Saron to revive early. If he is backstabbed by an Old God before the three guardians are dealt with, he can only say GG in laughter.
The second key is that they cannot let Vezax interfere with their work of waking up the three guardians.
What annoyed Duke was that something went wrong on the second point.
Less than a minute after the three women left, General Vezax gave Duke a big scare.
This huge humanoid monster covered in a crab shell did not rush to the Guardian Temple area from the entrance of the Crazy Stairs, but instead sent evil down from the sky.
Without any warning, the ceiling of the temple above Flame Keeper Koralon suddenly shattered.
The general fell at a terrifying speed far exceeding free fall.
That kind of intercontinental missile-level speed is simply not something a giant like Coralon can react to.
Duke fought back with the titan lightning magic he had just obtained from Thorim. This was the fastest magic Duke could cast.
However, as soon as the magic was used, Duke felt something was wrong.
The elements around the general seemed to be forcibly pushed away. Even with Duke's demigod-level lightning magic, there was a sense of sluggishness like a sharp blade inserted into paste.
Duke's lightning strike still hit General Vezax, but the other party took it.
The general swung a house-sized, sledgehammer-like forceps and brought it down hard on Coralon's head before he could raise his arms in defense.
"Ah!" The Flame Watcher let out a furious howl.
If he was a pure fire elemental creature, facing this purely physical attack, he could just laugh three times like the Firelord Ragnaros, and then say: "You can hit me all you want, and I lose if I scream in pain."
Unfortunately, Koralon was essentially a guardian giant, a special existence between living creatures and elemental creatures. So even though Koralon tilted his head at the last moment, his entire right shoulder was still collapsed and sunken, and he was severely injured on the spot and fell to his knees.
Facing the siege of the other three titan Guardians, General Vezax suddenly swung his giant arm, and a hundred-meter-high tide of shadow elements rose up behind him. With a gorgeous cleave, he broke through the siege of the three guards and let out a wild laugh.
"Hahaha! This is the domain of Master Yogg-Saron! Intruders! Be in pain! Be in despair! Kneel before the great power of the Master—"
Vezax must have taken some kind of expired X-drug. Although we know his behavior is abnormal, no one knows how long his madness can last.
Duke's face twitched slightly as he clearly felt the dark energy centered on the general rejecting the entry of the four elements. Of course, he knew that the general had an Aura of Despair that could forcibly reduce the attack speed of all enemies in the field and cut off the mana recovery throughout the process.
But it's definitely not that powerful. This thing can almost be called the Realm of Despair!
Did Thorim fall into the trap and be brainwashed?
Did Loken's early death stimulate Yogg-Saron?
Or maybe it was some other reason, Duke had no idea.
The only thing that is certain is that General Vezax is now as fierce as a chicken with its blood pumped up.
The four guardians of the treasury fell to their knees at the beginning. Although Koralon is trying hard to communicate with the fire elemental world and want to use the power of fire element to repair his body, it obviously takes time.
If Duke had left during this period to deal with Mimiron, perhaps all four guards would have been on their knees within ten minutes.
There must be something wrong with the surrounding environment or something. Otherwise, there would be no reason for such a strange gap in strength.
Duke did not attack again. He knew it was wrong but still attacked forcefully, which was just like "Xia Ji Ba Da", asking for trouble.
Duke hasn't felt so threatened in a long time.
"system AI!" Duke called out to his old partner in his sea of consciousness.
"Oh, dear host, I find that you always think of me when you are in trouble. I am so sad."
"..." Duke's face turned dark.
Seeing that Duke was unhappy, the system AI stopped joking: "Okay, I won't tease you anymore. Substitute the data model and start analyzing the environmental data..."
Perhaps this is what is called a fierce operation like a tiger. The system AI gives the answer in just one second.
"After incomplete analysis by this system, the surrounding space exhibits unstable half-space characteristics. No spatial interface of the four elemental realms has been detected within a radius of 200 meters. A large amount of biological tissue suspected to be that of the ancient god Yogg-Saron has been detected in the cracks of the surrounding subspace. It is the existence of these biological tissues that repels the entry of the four elements."
This is a bit unpleasant!
Duke's face was turning blue.
He suddenly thought of a possibility - could it be that all of them were eaten by Yogg-Saron?
Yogg-Saron is known as the Thousand Maws, or the Beast of the Thousand Maws, and legend has it that he has a thousand mouths.
Since there are a thousand mouths, there must be a thousand esophageals. Regardless of whether there are a thousand stomachs, it is definitely not a good thing to stay in Yogg-Saron's body.
And when it comes to Yogg-Saron's domain, we have to mention his brainwashing method. This is not a trick that can be avoided by quitting the group to save your IQ. Yogg-Saron can create different dreams and let the victims indulge in them. Eventually, their worldview is completely distorted, and their three views are not correct, and they are reduced to being dogs for him.
Duke didn't know how much consciousness Yogg-Saron had left here. If it was a lot, even he might be in danger.
This time, Duke is joining the battle in person!
At this time, the three big fools had bravely pounced on them again.
Rock Watcher Archavon used his ultimate move. His fist instantly doubled in size. It was estimated that he had condensed all the earth elements in this space into his hand, and then he smashed it down hard.
With a loud "bang", the huge pincer on General Vezax's right side almost instantly changed from three-dimensional to two-dimensional - as thin as paper.
Unfortunately, the next second, the general calmly used his left hand to grab the ice guard Tura next to him.
A strange thing happened. The general's right pincer, which was originally a little broken, quickly swelled up as if it was blown up and turned into a complete pincer.
This is not just superficial work, but the hardness and toughness have returned to their peak, because the general used this recast pliers to fight fiercely with the Storm Watcher Amaron on the spot.
"What!"
"impossible!?"
Several guards screamed at the same time.
Duke slapped his forehead and said, "Did you forget the key points I told you?"
Turawan suddenly realized: "Ah! Archavon, you have the Mark of the Faceless One on you, get away from us."
Since Duke wanted them to stop Vezax, he would naturally tell them some strategies. It was only now that Duke realized that this was a bit too much to ask.
It is not known whether these guardians were intentionally created with natural defects left by the titans, or whether their brain circuits are inherently different from those of humans.
When they encounter an unknown situation, they will choose to use the tricks and skills they are good at to launch an attack instead of carefully observing the situation on the scene.
Mark of the Faceless is a most special secret technique. When the general puts it on an enemy, the enemy will produce a cursed power, causing special irresistible shadow damage to the people around him. Then, this shadow power that has plundered the target's vitality will return to Vezax's body to repair the damage.
I have to say that the general's mark was placed quite cunningly.
This is a chain trap.
If the four guardians don't care, then the general is invincible. He can repair any injuries on his body with the mark alone. He doesn't even need to attack. The damage of the mark alone can wear down the other three guardians, and finally fight Archavon in a one-on-one duel.
What if I manage it?
The guards are all giants, and Archavon, who has the strongest defense among the four guards, was excluded. The remaining two guards are also very dangerous.
After all, one of the reasons is certainly that the general severely damaged the Flame Keeper right at the start, leaving the four keepers with one missing and becoming incomplete.
The most important thing is that Yogg-Saron seems to have given Vezax a special power...
"Enough! There will be no result if you continue fighting like this. Do you remember our agreement? If you still want to fulfill your duty of protection, then all of you run to the designated positions in four directions and use the titan Rune Chain to transmit elements to me!" Duke roared suddenly.
Each watcher saw a shining virtual image of a titan rune at the designated location, each representing the four elements of earth, water, fire, and wind in the titan language.
No need to ask, that's their position.
Even though he was unwilling to give in, even Coralon, who had just been injured, began to run towards the designated landmark.
"Invaders - your opponent is me!" General Vezax roared with great domineering power. He jumped and pounced on the Ice Guardian Turawan, but just as he flew into the air, a golden arrow emitting an extremely powerful sacred aura suddenly shot at his head.
"Huh!? This is..." Not knowing what this thing was, out of an instinctive aversion to the divine power, Vezax twisted his huge body in mid-air, allowing his ugly face that looked like a windmill to avoid the golden light.
In midair, a small golden figure was suspended in the air.
When the golden light returned to Duke's right hand, Vezax saw that it was a spiral golden sword. Of course, in human size, it was a long sword.
"Change - Vezax, from this moment on, your opponent is me - Edmund Duke!"
Plans cannot keep up with changes, this is Duke's biggest feeling.
Since the four guards can't deal with General Vezax, Duke can only roll up his sleeves and do it himself.
The original Aura of Despair reduces attack speed and blocks most mana recovery methods. The enhanced Realm of Despair is even worse, directly blocking the parallel of the four elemental realms and Azeroth in this area.
Ever since Duke mastered the 'Hundred Hands' tactics, he relied on massive amounts of magic power to replace quality with quantity and pile up the enemies.
Of course it's cool to be able to defeat a thousand enemies at the same time, because you have unlimited magic power supply.
General Vezax cut off the elemental world, which put Duke in a desperate situation.
Until this moment, Duke finally realized a serious flaw of his own, his own magic value limit was still not high enough. Normally, there were four elemental realms and magic nets to replenish magic infinitely, so of course he didn't feel it.
Now Duke had temporarily cut off the opponent's magic net, and he almost capsized.
But fortunately, Duke has a plan B!
The general could only stare blankly as the four guards ran in four directions without hesitation. As a super strong man who could attack both near and far, the general had no shortage of long-range attack methods.
Unfortunately, his truly lethal killer move still relies on the shadow energy's increase in melee attack power when Tide of Darkness is activated. In this state, because of the overload of shadow energy in his body, his movement speed will be greatly reduced.
He wanted to stop the four guards, but Duke took action.
"OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
At this moment, Duke was possessed by a certain Jiro. Every punch he threw out made a loud noise like a sonic boom.
Those were "fists" formed by Arcane Shock.
But it was definitely not a fist in the ordinary sense, because every time the arcane energy hit the general's huge ugly face, the arcane energy of the next punch would follow the trajectory of the previous punch.
That is both the superposition of arcane energy and the maximum utilization of arcane energy.
The magic cast by ordinary strong people will dissipate on the spot after hitting the enemy.
Duke's is not.
Almost every bit of the arcane energy he blasted out contained Duke's will, or the control of the System. After hitting General Vezax, the energy did not dissipate immediately, or was disintegrated and dispersed by the Field of Despair. When a new impact came, these energy groups would attract each other like magnets, and once again attached to the new attack, hitting the general twice, three times, or even N times.
It looked like a mindless bombardment, but in reality it was more like pile driving, hitting the same point repeatedly.
As a last resort, the general, who was already a little dizzy from Duke's continuous attacks, raised his huge pincers and fell into a defensive posture for the first time.
"Do you think this is the end?"
Duke flashed behind the general, crossed his hands, and looked solemn. When he slashed with both hands, two sharp white lights shot out from his hand blades.
It was an attack aimed at the weak spot between the general's two crab claws and his elbows.
Duke does not have the terrifying destructive power of Archavon who can gather the power of the earth and then strike out with one blow to destroy anything.
Duke's magic was more targeted. When Duke poured out the magic power in the ice circuit in his body at once, the damage caused was even more shocking.
Two sharp ice spikes, each 5 meters long, appeared out of nowhere and pierced into the crab claws through the elbow joint.
"Ah--" General Vezax screamed as he discovered that the nerves in his hand had been completely destroyed by Duke's previous attack.
Not caring about anything anymore, a ball of blazing flame suddenly burst out from the general's body, splashing towards the entire venue.
Scorching Flame!
Normally, this terrifying flame would sweep across the entire field, indiscriminately attacking all beings except the generals.
The funny thing is, the general was probably just angry for a moment. Or maybe, this arrogant faceless man didn't even bother to think about what kind of existence this little demigod was.
"Hahahaha! There are probably only three or four guys in this world who dare to set fire in front of me. Unfortunately, you are not one of them!" Duke laughed.
The fire of Ragnaros the Firelord is close to the origin of the elemental world of fire, and Duke can't handle it.
Even Duke couldn't deal with the infernal fire of Kil'jaeden the Deceiver, which was laced with the Burning Legion's unique fel energy.
But an amateur demigod-level monster also wants to play with fire in front of Duke, that's a joke.
The flames that leaped out were deflected at a speed visible to the naked eye.
With the general as the center, almost half a circle of flames close to Duke were all sucked over by Duke like a whale sucking water.
The flames that should have covered the whole place and raged across the field, condensed in Duke's palm in two breaths, and turned into a fireball the size of a leather ball. However, compared with the original flame, the brightness of the fireball was increased by hundreds of times. Although it was not as bright as the sun, in the eyes of the general, it was almost the same as the sun.
The amount of fire element he actually absorbed was not much, and in fact it was not 100% under his control. It was only after Duke's own fire element was injected into it that this super-concentrated ball of fire element completely became Duke's slave.
At this moment, Duke himself wondered if he was holding a small nuclear reactor in his hand.
"Hey, I'll give it back to you double!" Duke grinned.
The next second, a shadow of Duke appeared. It took the little sun from Duke's real body and rushed over fiercely with the momentum of burning everything down.
"boom--"
This was a powerful blow that shook the entire Guardian Temple area.
In Duke's imagination, this blow should at least cripple Vezax if not kill him.
But the effect is far from satisfactory.
At the critical moment, the general used the six crab-leg-like claws on the wings on his back to block in front of him.
The explosion did injure him, but it only blew off three crab legs. The two crab claws in front of him also exploded, revealing large areas of tendons and flesh, but it was not enough to be fatal.
"Oh shit!" Duke felt a little annoyed.
He almost emptied the magic power in the three magic circuits, but only suffered minor injuries.
This is a bit boring!
At this moment, the first rune chain full of titan runes suddenly flew out of the void.
"Haha! Just when you feel sleepy, someone brings you a pillow." Duke laughed.
The first one to arrive was Storm Watcher Amarron, whose huge body half extended out of the general's territory. When he was able to reconnect with the wind elemental world, he immediately shot a rune chain at Duke.
This thing is like the oil pipeline at a gas station. With it, even if the general opens the domain, he cannot stop the wind element from being continuously sent to Duke from the outside world.
"Hey! Wireless transmission doesn't work, I'll use a direct line connection!"
"Hehe, hahe!" Duke was in a good mood.
It's like a person with severe Internet addiction who is forced to go on a business trip in a mountain valley with no signal. He has a top-of-the-line laptop but can only play Minesweeper. Then he can get online, although it is wired. But the feeling is so touching that it is beyond words.
Duke was resurrected with a burst of energy.
It's more than just full health, it feels like suddenly having a set of divine armor on, feeling good about myself, able to step on Thunder Bluff, oh no, step on the Frozen Throne, punch the Twisting Void, and pull Sargeras down from the throne with one hand, and then sit on it himself.
I didn't take any medicine today and I felt cute.
"God said that strong winds will blow away all filth--" At this moment, Duke was possessed by the charlatan, and the wind element that slightly emanated from his body was so strong that even this little aftermath caused a powerful tornado.
With a slight flick of his right hand, thirty-six breezes burst out from between his fingers, directly spreading into an arc-shaped wind blade with a radius of nearly ten meters, wantonly cutting everything around it.
This was not an attack directly targeting General Vezax, but rather an attack using the element of wind to destroy the biological tissue of Yogg-Saron that was overlapping with this space.
"Sizzle, sizzle--" It seemed that the wind blade did not hit anything, but a faint sound like tearing cloth came from the air.
Immediately afterwards, the second rune chain flew into the air, and each titan rune bloomed with a bright fiery red color.
This was a gift from the Flame Watcher Koralon. Most of the injured Watcher's body was out of the general's territory, with only his intact arm sticking in. The rune chain composed of 1024 runes seemed to divide the entire skyline of the dark space, severely stimulating Vezax's nerves.
"Roar——" No matter how stupid the general was, he knew how terrible it was to let Duke get unlimited magic supply. He suddenly pushed out a huge ball of shadow energy from the pliers.
Shadow Impact!
When Duke saw this thing, he was stunned at first, and then he laughed!
Regardless of the power of this thing, Duke almost burst out laughing at its slow attack speed. Moreover, as a veteran player who has experienced the Battle of Ulduar, as long as he doesn't get hit by the first attack, this thing is a treasure!
Others are afraid of shadow attacks, and Duke... is also afraid of them.
But lower-level mysteries are destined to be swallowed up by higher-level mysteries.
Duke made a move that everyone present found a little unbelievable - he rushed forward before the huge ball of shadow energy hit Koralon's Fire titan Rune Chain.
Flash Use your face to catch the ultimate move!
Just by seeing this action, even the four guards wondered if Duke had taken the wrong medicine.
However, the expected shadow energy did not harm Duke. Instead, Duke's mysterious and strange prayers echoed throughout the room.
"Light comes from darkness, and light comes from darkness!"
This was the brainwashing sentence that Duke used when he transformed Archimonde's curse.
The Faceless General, who had long been isolated in his own world, would never inquire about Duke's glorious achievements.
But this did not prevent everyone from seeing that the general's shadow attack was invalidated.
The shadow energy actually transformed by Duke may be less than 20% of this energy ball. Duke has mostly dispersed this energy.
The focus this time is - deterrence!
"You can't use fire! You can't use shadow! What other means do you have? Use them all!" Duke said coldly.
General Vezax's eyes almost popped out of his head. It was obvious that Duke was bullying him because he was not a mage and was using the difference in the level of elemental control to bully him.
If there is anything he is better than Duke in, it is close combat.
Duke is a squishy wizard. Would he compete in arm wrestling with a big guy like you? Would you punch me and see who falls first?
Don't joke!
Originally, Duke received the fire element supply from Coralon and wanted to give Vezax a severe blow directly, but when Duke saw Coralon's half-dead appearance, he reduced his demand for the fire element.
"Coralon, there's no rush here, you fix your body first."
"...Okay!" The Flame Keeper finally nodded.
Now that Duke has the upper hand, the need for the fire element is not so urgent.
Three seconds later, the frost element of Frost Watcher Turawan also arrived.
The slender titan rune of frost element floated over, like a beautiful musical score. The crystal clear runes leaped in the air, conducting more frost elements to Duke's body.
"This level of elemental purity..." The second half of Duke's unspoken sentence was 'It would be great if these guys were willing to help my magic network work'.
He did not wait for Archavon, the slowest Earth Guardian. After all, wind and earth were not Duke's forte.
When the frost element once again filled every corner of the frost magic circuit in Duke's body, Duke took action boldly!
With a pointed of his left index finger, a three-story-tall, semi-illusory female figure suddenly appeared behind Duke. It was a Greek-style goddess phantom. Because there was no entity, her face could not be seen clearly. Only a few curves made of frost elements outlined a perfect female face.
She was carrying a huge water bottle on her shoulder, which she slowly tipped down.
What gushed out from the bottle was almost the finest and purest frost element in the world.
"God said, the Goddess of Dawn will forgive you--" Duke recited the name of the move in a very pretentious manner.
But I was secretly happy!
Damn it! I have been wanting to do this for a long time, and finally I found the opportunity.
Forgiveness of the Dawn Goddess!
In fact, at the demigod level, all magical attacks, unless they are beyond Duke's ability and understanding, are simply a matter of extracting elements and shaping them.
It doesn't matter what form it takes!
What matters is the purity, density and level of mystery of its elements!
Duke couldn't even refine such an exaggerated frost element by himself. Since there were guardians created by titan to help, Duke did it by the way.
The frost element poured out from the water bottle instantly turned into a sea of ice.
It was flowing ice water and countless ice chips.
Wherever the frost element covers, the heaven and earth are frozen and all living things die.
The entire hall, whether it was the floor, the columns, or the huge dome that was a hundred meters high, was all filled with ice.
"No - I am a servant of the great Majesty Yogg-Saron! Frost alone cannot defeat me -" General Vezax was still struggling.
More and more ice cubes were squeezed towards him. Although the ice cubes kept bursting and turning into ice chips under his terrifying brute force, in less than one tenth of a second, those ice chips and frozen liquid would turn into ice cubes again under the drive of the absolute zero-level freezing air, and tried to imprison his body.
The movements of the huge pincers became slower and slower, and the general felt that he could no longer struggle!
"No - I am a servant of the great Yogg-Saron! I am invincible - I..."
General Vezax was still struggling hard, but everyone knew that his resistance was in vain.
Finally, Archavon, the slowest one, arrived at the destination, and finally the earth element, which Duke was least familiar with, came.
It was a rune chain composed of titan runes rising from the ground, transmitting an endless stream of huge elemental energy.
Arcane, fire, and frost are the main elements, and holy, shadow, and nature (thunder) are the auxiliary elements. None of the six elements that Duke can control is like the earth element.
As the foundation of all things, the energy of the earth element is the least active. Although Duke can barely command these elements to move to designated places, it feels very bad.
Duke is like a rich second-generation who is used to driving a supercar that can accelerate from zero to 100 kilometers per hour in just 3 seconds. Suddenly, he is asked to drive a tractor, and a crappy tractor that is most common in rural areas and starts with a crank. How can he get used to it?
"There are some things that I can never get used to!" Duke complained, pouring earth elements at Vezax's feet.
The ground of the temple was surging violently. Large chunks of soil broke through the floor tiles and poured out, forming a wave-like thing that swallowed up the entire lower body of the huge general.
Duke stretched out his hands and sent a divine thought to the Ice Guardian Tura, who immediately cooperated with him. Then a huge amount of frost elements of the level of overwhelming the sea came.
Tura was trying his best.
"Thank you very much!" Duke replied softly in his mind.
He held the Atiesh in both hands and raised them to his chest, rubbing the handle of the staff clockwise with his left hand and counterclockwise with his right hand.
As Duke moved, two huge ice hands, each with fingers ten meters long, appeared in the middle of the ice. These two ice hands had a density far exceeding that of other ice blocks.
If these blocks of ice made of high-purity frost elements were of a level that only ice cones could penetrate, then these two icy hands would be diamonds in the mortal world.
"Crackle—" The crisp and continuous sound of explosions could be heard in the ice.
As Duke rubbed intricately, the two large icy hands fiercely grabbed Vezax's shoulders, and then tore the general's body apart with the most primitive and violent absolute power.
"Don't underestimate me—" the general roared, and behind him, the Dark Tide surged wildly. This violent shadow energy gave him even more powerful brute force.
In the ice, it seemed as if two giants were wrestling.
It's just that Duke is more dishonest.
In the constant struggle, the frost element unceremoniously forced its way into every hole and gap in the general's shell and limbs, wantonly destroying the general's nerves, muscles and blood vessels.
The Faceless Men under Yogg-Saron all have strong vitality.
However, the destructive power of the frost element is at the cellular level.
The temperature at absolute zero can easily cause the water in the cells to freeze.
When a unit of water turns to ice, the ice takes up a larger volume. When all the water in a cell turns to ice, it bursts the cell from the inside out.
At first, General Vezax didn't notice it, just like it's hard for a human body to feel the withering of a hair. Gradually, he realized something was wrong. The numbness from his limbs made him instinctively feel that something was wrong.
He wanted to use the Mark of the Faceless Man to replenish his energy and biological cells, but was distressed to find that there was only Duke within his range.
When all his means of attack became a joke, the outcome was already doomed!
"Drink!" Duke shouted.
The general's carapace, which had been extensively corroded by the frost element, could not withstand the combined effects of the cold and the huge force. As Duke shouted, the general's two hammer-like claw arms were torn off first.
"Ahhhhhh——" Vezax's huge body swung hard, a completely instinctive struggle. No matter how he screamed, he could not stop the two large claws from being dragged into this white icy hell by the icy hands.
Then there are two big thick legs.
If either of his thighs were removed, they could be used as the main beam of the Great Hall of King's Valley in Orgrimmar, but after his body was corroded by frost and became hard, cold and brittle, he was simply unable to resist the huge force from the Ice Hand.
The frost magic element circuit in Duke's body has been running at its maximum speed. Even with his strength, it is a huge burden to use such a large amount of ultra-high purity frost elements.
Now it depends on who can hold the breath longer.
"Hmph——" a cold snort!
The icy hand exerted force again and twisted the left thigh off.
Three seconds later, it was the right thigh!
Next came his big tail, which was as thick as a drill.
Finally, there are the ridiculous pair of wings behind Vezax that look like six crab legs.
When Duke finished all this, the ultra-high-density ice block of frost elements that stretched from the floor tiles to the dome in the hall suddenly exploded.
"Bang--"
Crisply and cleanly, all the ice instantly turned into glittering crystal dust and was expelled by the evil energy that enveloped the entire Guardian Temple of Ulduar.
Of course, everything has settled.
"Ah-ah-ah-ah-ah-ah--" General Vezax, who was so arrogant a few minutes ago, now looks extremely miserable.
Except for the head, all the limbs were torn off, turning into a human stick, oh no, a lobster stick. At this time, even the shell of his body was completely destroyed by the frost element, leaving only a mass of white and tender muscles with a little red blood. He looked like a fat worm.
As the largest hole in his body, his facial features were most thoroughly invaded by the frost element and were completely distorted and deformed.
"Haha! Why do I suddenly feel that this guy looks a little... interesting!" Coralon, who was once severely injured, was the most gloating.
The four guards walked over with heavy steps.
"What now?" Archavon asked.
"Until we deal with the other three guardians, I'll trouble you to guard this place," Duke ordered.
"No problem. Everything is for the Creator." Archavon pounded his chest hard.
Duke glanced at General Vezax, who was wriggling on the ground like a worm. "As for him, if he grows more limbs, we will pull them out. But we must not let him die prematurely."
"Hehe! Happy to serve." Koralon grinned, stretched out his big hand that was still surrounded by blazing flames, and touched the general's arm, tearing off a large piece of tender flesh that had grown rapidly on his arm, destroying it completely.
"I'm afraid he will inform Yogg-Saron through other means..." Turawan added.
"It's okay!" Duke chuckled, "I'll leave this to you, Ysera."
"Hmm." A soft voice came from the void.
If Ysera, the guardian dragon who controls the Emerald Dream, were asked to suppress Yogg-Saron, something might really go wrong. But it was more than enough for her to suppress a servant of the Old God without having to participate in the battle and prevent it from sending out warning signals.
"Huh!" After a long sigh, Duke finally had time to sense the situation on other battlefields.
Sylvanas' battle against the Guardian of Life, Freya, had just reached the point where she killed the first ancient tree elder. After carefully sensing the elemental reserves of both sides, Duke felt relieved.
On the other side, in the Hall of Winter, Onyxia and Vashj faced off against Hodir, the Guardian of the Winter Temple. The battle here was not very suspenseful.
Onyxia was already quite powerful, and with the addition of Vashj who was also a demigod, Duke felt a little embarrassed when he saw two big bosses going to beat up one boss.
Once upon a time, Duke was also worried about the coordination between these two guys.
After all, they were used to working alone. A princess and a Naga queen, they were both arrogant. They didn't obey anyone except Duke. At least they caught Vashj to tame dragons together. After teasing the Naga for a few times, they finally subdued them.
At least they won't undermine each other.
In the video from the Mage's Eye, Onyxia was the main attacker, with Vashj assisting. Whenever Hodir froze him, Vashj would unblock him and suddenly use lightning arrows to restrain Hodir.
The balance of victory and defeat has slowly tipped towards the two women.
The real focus is on Mimiron.
Unable to wait for Duke, the Alliance Heroes launched an attack on Mimiron on time as agreed beforehand.
Coming here from the Temple of Invention, also known as the Temple of Creation, the great inventor Mimiron still brought his pair of high-tech equipment and weapons.
In terms of his own fighting ability, Mimiron is just a worthless fighter. The priest Sally Whitemane can teach him a lesson with just a hammer.
But he has so many followers and some powerful weapons!
The first is the infantry heavy fighting vehicle Flame Behemoth MK2. The appearance of this thing is a smaller version of the Flame Behemoth that Duke and his team had previously fought in the city wall area.
The form is the same, but the inside has been completely changed by Mimiron, and the equipment and skills are completely different.
And because this is inside the temple, the previous vehicles cannot get in. Now the Alliance's heroes have to fight this smaller steel behemoth with their bodies.
the Alliance's heroes were tricked on the spot. When Duke looked over, he saw Gavinrad's hair was on fire. As a last resort, this guy cut off his hair with a sword. It looked like he was heading towards the Mediterranean...
Duke smiled bitterly and held his forehead.
Meow!
If there were fewer spoilers, would you be cheated?
In order to avoid suspicion, Duke did not reveal the detailed strategy of Ulduar to the Alliance this time. All the inside information was revealed by Thorim, the "Traitor".
After Odin and Tyr were gone and killed Loken, Thorim, as one of the remaining four guardians, knew everything about Ulduar. But that was based on all the known information.
Thorim knew everything about things before he left Ulduar. Thorim didn't know anything about Yogg-Saron. Similarly, he didn't know what Mimiron, who was always tinkering with new inventions, had in store.
the Alliance heroes encountered Mimiron without any intelligence, and were badly beaten by the shrunken mechanical chariots with the same appearance.
"Those are mines! Don't step on them!" Brann yelled.
"Ah——" There are always people who make mistakes in a hurry, such as Liadrin, who followed Calia who was tiptoeing through two mines, and she was fine. Unfortunately, it was a high-sensitivity mine at that time, and the blood elf paladin did not touch the mine, but her shield swung over it and directly detonated the mine.
"Bang!" With a loud bang, a beam of fire shot up into the sky within a ten-yard radius. If she hadn't used the Holy Shield at the critical moment, forcing herself into a state of invincibility with the ultra-high density of holy light, she would have broken a leg.
The next second, Brann looked pale again as he saw dozens of missiles flying from the back of the smaller Flame Beast with crooked trajectories. "Rockets are coming, hide!"
Perhaps the rockets were too accurate and not very fast, so the Alliance's heroes were able to dodge them if they tried. However, every time a rocket hit the metal floor, it would ignite a large area.
This is a Incendiary Gasoline Rocket!
If you get even a little bit of this stuff on you, you'll end up being burned!
Without enough holy light or nature spells for treatment, a fire man can be turned into a mature man in a few seconds.
Mm, the familiar kind that smells like barbecue.
Unfortunately, when the entire flaming chariot was covered with lightning and dense "crackling" sounds of electricity were heard, everyone's formation was disrupted again.
"Get out of the way—" This time it was Tirion who was shouting. He almost got hit because he got too close by accident. This kind of ultra-high voltage current splash can kill people instantly if it touches them.
At this moment, Mimiron's invention hall was full of fire, and there was less and less room for people to stand. Everyone was forced into a panic by the rampaging flaming beast, and it was a mess.
It was in this situation that Magni saw in despair that the huge main gun on top of the flaming beast was aimed at him!
The dwarf king no longer cared about his manners and shouted shamelessly: "I am no longer a God descending from heaven! Save me, or we will all die together!"
That's right, in the last wave of attacks, Magni almost single-handedly withstood the Flame Beast's Plasma Main Cannon.
Unlike traditional artillery, this black-tech Cannon that should not appear in Azeroth is like a complete laser Cannon.
Whether it is plasma or not remains to be investigated.
Anyway, Magni, who was able to withstand the full force of Ragnaros, believed that he could not withstand this focused attack that lasted for 7 seconds under normal circumstances.
It's not like he didn't try to dodge, but he couldn't.
On the contrary, Shandris once hit too hard and attracted the main gun attack. Even Shandris, a Sentinel leader favored by the Moon Goddess, almost died. As the price of saving her adopted daughter, Tyrande consumed a precious divine protective item.
This time, seeing the light of the plasma Cannon rushing towards him and quickly filling his entire field of vision, Magni yelled: "Duke! Why don't you come, you bastard!?"
Better late than never!
Just as Magni was trying hard to use his small body and shield to take the ion Cannon shot, a gorgeous ice prism appeared in front of him.
The extremely smooth mirror surface is spotless, and its clarity makes one wonder whether it is glass or ice.
The extremely cold aura emanating from it made Magni realize clearly that this mirror was definitely a creation of the frost element.
The ice prism was at a 45-degree angle to Magni, blocking the front diagonally.
"Sizzle——"
Strange sound.
What was even more bizarre was that the main gun attack that had just devastated Magni was actually reflected.
With an incident angle of 45 degrees and an exit angle of 45 degrees, the gorgeous ion Cannon attack made a standard right angle and flew out in front of the Dwarf King.
A lifelike phantom of Magni appeared in front of the mirror, then made an exaggerated falling movement, let out a scream like a drake being skinned alive, and fell to the ground dead.
Magni was stunned behind the ice prism.
So realistic.
Damn, if this illusion wasn't exactly like him, if the illusion was replaced by his brother Muradin or Brann, maybe Magni himself would have believed it.
Well, whether Magni himself believes it or not, Flame Behemoth MK2 believes it.
After seeing the human figure in the ion Cannon's light being completely decomposed, and the behemoth's battle result evaluation system showing "Target destroyed", Mimiron casually stopped the main gun's energy output.
Although he didn't think much of this short mortal who could grow in size, the vague sense of threat in his heart made him instinctively try to preserve the energy of the flaming beast as much as possible.
The next moment, a bright red-outlined human figure suddenly appeared on the screen in Mimiron's control room.
The warnings from the behemoth's enemy-searching system rang out: "High-energy biological reaction detected! High-energy hostile target detected! The target's combat power is assessed as - demigod, rated - highly dangerous!"
"Huh!?" Mimiron's goose egg-sized mechanical eyes zoomed instantly and narrowed the focal length.
"Here it comes!" Anyone would be startled by the sudden voice echoing in their ears.
But when they heard that familiar and lazy tone, everyone felt as if they had taken a reassurance pill and calmed down immediately.
Better late than never!
"Is it done over there?" Magni asked.
"General Vezax's mutant lobster?" Duke smirked, "Sorry! I cut him into a lobster ball."
Duke waved his hand and showed a three-dimensional projection: in the picture, a big meat ball with only a head left was twitching and screaming, because the newly grown limbs would soon be torn off and destroyed by the big and strong guardian who was watching nearby.
Having strong resilience is a good thing, but in this situation, it is like hellish torture.
There was a flickering light in Mimiron's mechanical eyes, and no one knew what he was thinking.
He raised his robotic arm and pressed a green button.
"Puff! Puff! Puff!" Continuous mechanical cover-opening sounds were heard, and the top and rear half of the Flame Beast MK2 opened row after row of covers, revealing spherical red missile heads inside.
Duke laughed and said, "Damn it, you really think I've never seen a missile compartment!"
Due to the limitations of the times, even Magni, a pioneer, didn't know what those missiles were. Perhaps in the eyes of the dwarf king, they were new types of artillery shells.
As a time traveler, Du was influenced by a series of giant robot animations such as "Macross" and "Gundam". In addition, he watched military channels for a long time. If he didn't recognize this, he could just pull a bucket of tofu to drown himself.
"Mimiron! Let's have something new! What you have... is not good enough!" Duke stretched out his right hand in a very pretentious manner and snapped his fingers.
In an instant, more than a hundred Mage Hands appeared in the air above the entire workshop!
The might of the Hundred-Armed Grim Reaper reappeared after a long absence.
"Wow! Wow! Wow!" The pure arcane missile hit the warhead of Mimiron's missile before it left the cabin.
Mimiron was indeed a genius, but no matter how powerful a genius was, without the test of war, he would still not consider many details: for example, the safety of the missile, what would happen if the warhead equipped with the firing device was accidentally attacked in advance...
"Bang! Bang! Bang--" Continuous explosions sounded on the top of the flaming beast.
You know, Mimiron's flaming beast uses a burning gasoline rocket! Once the warhead is exploded, the gasoline inside will splash everywhere.
Not only did it splash onto the top cover of the flaming beast, it also seeped into it through the missile launch tube.
The flaming beast... after all, is just a machine, not a fire elemental creature. Whether it's the one guarding the city wall area or this smaller and improved version, neither of them is immune to fire.
Duke's premature detonation of the rocket undoubtedly caused Mimiron to shoot himself in the foot.
This feeling is absolutely sour and refreshing!
For a moment, the powerful alliance members who had been scattered nearby to avoid the rockets all let out strange cheers.
Originally, Mimiron had mines, but he hesitated at the last moment. If the rockets could not be launched, then the slower mines would be intercepted before they hit the ground.
Mimiron grabbed the steering wheel with both hands, stepped on the accelerator, and drove the flaming beast directly towards Duke. At the same time, a fierce electric light was brewing above the beast...
Duke's mouth curled up into a mocking smile: "Mimiron, if I defeat you with magic, you won't be willing to accept it! Well, come on, you attack me with science, and I defend you with science!"
There is no aggregation of any wind elements!
The energy concentrated in the Flame Beast MK2 is pure electricity generated by batteries and generators!
"Beep..." On Duke's retina, the voltage displayed by the system has reached 10,000 volts.
This is a very remarkable number.
Even if Duke asked Gelbin's dwarf technicians and inventors to study electromagnetic coil power generation, it is still a long way from high-voltage power transmission at this stage.
Duke didn't know whether Mimiron had some talents in other areas, but at least in the field of electricity, Duke liked Mimiron very much.
Damn, if Mimiron hadn't used titan runes to generate electricity, he would have made a fortune this time.
Duke became more and more determined to kidnap Mimiron!
Duke shouted: "God's treasure--"
Thirty-six epic long-handled weapons were thrown out by Duke from the space storage bag and he used the mage's hand to pierce them directly into the hard steel ground.
Duke waved: "Come!"
Don't show off!
Pretend to be struck by lightning!
Duke grew up hearing this.
However, it would absolutely be a shame if a demigod with wind-related thunder attributes were still struck to death by lightning.
Duke can actually withstand the Flame Beast's High Voltage Electric Exterior.
The reason why Duke set up 36 dung forks, oh, a copycat version of Shadow Strike made by Magni Bronzebeard, the first blacksmith in the Alliance, and set up a lightning rod formation was to seduce!
Come on! Frontally... Pfft!
There are so many stories to tell about lightning and lightning rods that one could talk about them all day long.
But the conductive effect of 36 dung forks is absolutely amazing.
The 10,000-volt high voltage electricity was conducted away almost instantly. The floor was originally made of steel, which was super conductive. In addition, Du secretly manipulated the electricity to conduct it back in the direction of the flaming beast.
The flaming beast was immediately hit.
"Ziziziziz--" Electric sparks were bursting out from every corner of the huge mechanical tank, and billowing black smoke was also coming out.
Originally, the Flame Beast MK2 had suffered a lot of damage from the attacks of the Alliance's powerful group before Duke arrived. Duke's arrival became the last straw that broke the camel's back.
The loud bangs of ping-pong symbolized that this big toy that belonged to Mimiron was about to be destroyed.
Logically speaking, the next one to appear is the VX-001 Anti-Personnel Laser Turret.
None of the heroes in the Alliance knew Mimiron's trick, but Duke knew it!
In history, the coalition forces that broke in here had never seen anything so novel and beyond imagination, so they were all shocked. No one could predict how far the Flame Beast would hit before it was destroyed, so they could only attack with all their strength. As a result, when Mimiron gave up the Flame Beast and entered the laser turret instead, everyone was a step slow.
Only Duke knew how fragile Mimiron was in the transition between one mechanical creation and another.
Duke seemed very excited and continued to bombard the Flame Monster with fireballs, but in his vision, Duke stared at the Flame Monster's health value determined by the system. When the health value number returned to zero, Duke moved, activated Flash, and instantly disappeared from everyone's sight.
At this time, no one except Duke noticed that a small round hatch opened on the top cover of the flame beast, and Mimiron, carrying a jet backpack, was ejected.
Ejection and the like are available on any modern fighter plane on Earth. This is because the cost of training fighter pilots is extremely high, and even if a country loses one, it will be painful, so an ejection device is used to save the lives of pilots in crashed fighter planes.
Mimiron's jetpack is a catapult device that transcends the current era of Azeroth.
Unfortunately, as soon as he left the protection of the flaming beast, he was caught by Duke.
A huge hand of arcane energy grabbed him.
"Ah! Let me go! You barbarian! Let me go - ah ah ah -"
The scene suddenly became quiet.
Without Mimiron as the mastermind, all the automatic defense systems that were still operating on the field were out of service. The Flame Beast had already begun to explode, and the anti-personnel laser turret had not yet been raised.
It seems that there is no fight!
Although everyone knows that this little dwarf who looks a bit like a dwarf but is actually made of metal is Mimiron, the guardian of the Temple of Creation. After all, this guy made a lot of noise and mocked everyone before opening it, but it seems that this guy still has a lot of tricks up his sleeve!
How did Duke catch him like this?
"Do you know who you have captured? I am Mimiron, the greatest inventor, and a loyal servant of the supreme god Yogg-Saron!"
Duke pulled the muscles on his face with a forced smile: "Silly, stop screaming. You are being controlled. But it was Thorim who asked us to come to Ulduar to rescue the three of you and to deal with that Yogg-Saron guy."
Duke didn't waste any words. He used his large wizard's hand to grab Mimiron's huge metal head, which was obviously disproportionate to his body and as big as if he had eaten Sanlu milk powder, and smashed it hard on the metal floor.
"Tell you—Ah!"
The huge arcane palm made Mimiron kneel in front of Duke in an ORZ posture, with his forehead making close contact with the floor.
"I am...Wow!"
A gorgeous and sonorous sound.
"Don't smash it - the data will be lost!"
You believe in a cult? Why don't you join the Duke's Church?
Duke just put his hands behind his back, pretending to be cool, and looked at the dignified titan Guardian who kowtowed to him.
Well, in the name of waking up Mimiron, of course.
Next to them, a group of powerful men from the Alliance stared at Duke in amazement.
I knew Duke was awesome, but I didn't know it was that awesome.
The titan Guardian who had driven them into such a state of panic was caught and beaten to a pulp just like that?
This ceremony of three kneelings and nine kowtows seems to be more powerful than that of one's own ministers?
Magni stroked his beard and said to himself, "Hey! Third brother, should we change the etiquette of meeting the king to kowtow like this? It looks pretty cool!"
Brann looked at his eldest brother who was occasionally out of his mind and rolled his eyes: "Brother, we dwarves don't have that kind of patience? Do you believe that if you issue a new order, the dwarves over there will shoot you in the face?"
"You can't kill me again!" Magni screamed.
"At least it's fun!"
"Well, you're right."
While the eccentric guy was making jokes over here, Mimiron over there seemed to... wake up.
"Enough! Enough! Stop smashing it! I remember... Woo! I am the guardian of titan, not the servant of that damn prisoner...! Damn it! Stop! Are you here to help or not!?" Mimiron shouted with his hands and feet dancing.
Duke looked at Mimiron, whose metal forehead was dented by the knocks, and finally felt embarrassed to continue to harm him.
"Are you really awake? You are not still brainwashed and pretending to be awake?" Duke picked up the little Mimiron with the wizard's hand.
"Bullshit! Damn native! If I didn't have to retake Ulduar first, I would kill you right now! Damn Loken, damn liar!" Mimiron danced with joy.
Duke finally put Mimiron down.
"You said you were sent by Thorim? Well, I have memories of you dealing with my fire beasts. I know you are against Yogg-Saron, but I want to confirm it." Mimiron said as he pulled out a welding gun-like thing from somewhere and burned his forehead. Under everyone's gaze, the sunken forehead began to recover.
"He gave me this." Duke handed over a titan mark. The guardians had a special way of communicating that outsiders would never understand.
Mimiron rolled his eyes at Duke and said, "Alright! I trust you. I don't know what the other guardians are like, but I'm very angry now. Do you want to come with me to settle accounts with Yogg-Saron?"
