Volume 8: The Road to the Ancient Dragon Chapter 428: Fel Energy Hurricane
Tyrande (High Priestess of the Moon Goddess): "Quick, eliminate the Zerg in the camp!"
Maiev Shadowsong (Warden Lord): "I'll take care of them!"
A graceful figure suddenly appeared in the area where the insects were most concentrated.
Blade whirlwind!
Countless blades flew in all directions, "whoosh!"
There was a sound of metal piercing through flesh and blood, and a group of people were knocked down instantly.
Blade whirlwind! Flash! Blade whirlwind! Flash! Blade whirlwind!
Maiev Shadowsong seemed to be dancing a dance of metal and death, and every flash would inevitably bring about death.
Other night elf heroes were also clearing out the Zerg in the camp, and they were all slaughtered in the blink of an eye.
On the other side, in the Centaur camp, the Centaur lords and generals were also quickly eliminating those tunnel worms. Most of the Centaurs were members of the Shenwu Emperor Company, and they were able to command with ease. In the blink of an eye, most of the Zerg in the camp were killed.
However, the Tauren camp between the two camps was not so lucky.
This camp existed as a buffer zone. Although it was large, its defense system was not perfect. The Tauren were not skilled craftsmen and they did not even have a defense tower. All defense depended on manpower.
The previous charges were all thanks to the cooperation of the Centaurs and the Night Elves. At this time, the two major forces were busy with their own affairs and had no time to take care of them.
For a while, countless minotaurs and insects were fighting each other in the camp, and it would take some time to kill them all.
What’s even more terrible is that the Twin Emperors have brought a group of Anubis giants to kill them.
These giants, who were more than ten meters tall, were much more ferocious than the Minotaur. They could beat the Minotaur with brute force alone. Several outer walls were destroyed in an instant, and countless insects swarmed in through the gaps.
Emperor Veknilas: "The breach has been opened! Charge forward, break through the enemy's defenses, and outflank the enemy camp!"
Hearing the shouts, countless Ahn'Qiraj insects around rushed here frantically. The black insects were crowded together, and hundreds of thousands of insects almost blocked the vision. It looked like a sea of insects.
The Great Emperor Shenwu looked towards the Tauren camp on the right and immediately thought that something was not good.
The Dark Night Alliance's military strength is far inferior to that of the Zerg. Previously, they relied on a tight battle line to fight a tug-of-war with the enemy. Once their front line is broken and they lose the cover of their formation, they will inevitably collapse.
He hurriedly controlled the Earth Giant to rush over for support, and this charge rushed out of the Centaur camp, lost the cover of the surrounding troops, and was immediately surrounded by countless insects.
Although the Earth Giant has a health value of over 600,000 and amazing defense.
However, it could not withstand the siege of countless enemies around it, especially the Obsidian Destroyers, whose magic destruction skills were best at dealing with this kind of summoned creatures.
Although he was losing blood crazily as he walked, Emperor Shenwu still gritted his teeth and charged towards the gap. He had to plug the gap.
As soon as they reached the outside of the Minotaur camp, the Earth Giant staggered and fell down - this thing also has a health bar, with a health point of more than 600,000. After holding out for more than ten minutes under the siege of countless insects, it finally couldn't hold on.
Boom! The giant collapsed, turning into countless fragments of rock and soil, crushing many insects to death.
The Shenwu Emperor leaped up and landed on the ground. The moment he landed, he was immediately surrounded by insects.
He reached out and pulled out the big dragon tooth, then swung it with a hammer, smashing a bunch of insect fragments into pieces.
War tramples! Boom!
All the insects around were stunned.
Combat skill - cavalry charge!
The whole body was shrouded in the shadows of a group of dark war horses. Wherever they passed, insects were knocked away.
Then he pulled out a horn.
Leader Skill——Call of the Centaur King!
"Woo woo woo!" With the sound of the horn, dozens of Centaur ancestral warriors appeared around.
"Ancient Centaur warriors, charge with me!"
It’s over, it’s really over now!
The Great Emperor Shenwu was waving his weapon and charging recklessly while looking at the situation around him. The Minotaur's defense line had completely collapsed, and more and more insects were swarming towards the gap. He alone could not stop the tidal wave of insects.
Maybe I can cast an earthquake spell to delay it for a while—
No, the damage of Earthquake is too low, it just has a strong slowing effect. It is useless without the cooperation of troops to destroy it.
He turned around and saw that all the Centaur ancestral warriors had been killed, leaving only endless insects around him.
Looking at the horrifying scene before him, Emperor Shenwu knew that he had completely lost this time. No matter how many Centaurs there were, they could not be stopped.
If it really doesn't work, just retreat!
A black shadow suddenly passed through the sky, and the strong wind it brought forced countless insects to stop.
Breath of Thunder!
A red lightning swept away all the insects in front of Emperor Shenwu.
Aidan Deron (Storm Dragon King): "Mortals, do not be afraid, do not despair, the Storm Dragon King has arrived, and the tide of battle is about to turn!"
Dragon Thunder Storm!
Boom boom boom!
Dozens of dragon thunders struck down, but only caused ripples. Not many insects were killed, but it successfully attracted the attention of both the enemy and us.
"Damn it, what's the use at this time?" Tyrande said angrily as she looked at the storm dragon in the distant sky. She could no longer release her divine punishment moonlight. After all, the grace of the gods also had a limit.
Emperor Shenwu (King of Centaurs): "Brother Aidan, you are finally here, but it is too difficult for you to come. There are too many enemies."
Aidan Deron (Storm Dragon King): "Mortal, you know nothing of power."
As he spoke, he flew forward another hundred meters.
The wrath of thunderclouds!
Boom! The Storm Dragon turned into a red thundercloud and fell from the sky. The explosion blew away countless insects.
The moment he landed, Murphy turned back into human form.
Without any hesitation, he picked up the Storm Binder with both hands and swung it vigorously.
It's up to you -
Aidan (Prince of Alterac): "Great Storm God Anoros, I summon you as the Son of the Storm. Please lend me your power to summon the sacred storm and cleanse the world of the despicable creatures who dare to be your enemy."
He suddenly raised the sword high and activated the weapon's special effects.
Weapon Effect 1: Summon Storm (Usable once a day). Summon a small storm that will cause a continuous blowback effect on small units within the storm range, and a continuous slowdown effect on medium and larger units. You can increase the power and range of the storm by consuming additional mana.
The wind whistled violently, and the air flow swirled around Murphy, expanding and getting bigger and bigger.
A gust of wind blew away the insects that rushed towards Murphy. Murphy continued to twirl his weapon, and every swing made the surrounding storm more violent and bigger.
Mana was constantly being consumed, and Murphy began to inject evil energy before the mana was exhausted.
The fel power in Sargeras's Ring of Domination was madly injected into the Storm Binder.
Hero's specialty - Lone Brave is triggered!
Expertise Effect: When there are no friendly units around you and you are surrounded by enemies (the number of enemies is greater than or equal to 10), you will gain an additional 5% attribute bonus. The more enemies there are, the higher the attribute bonus will be, which can be stacked up to 50%.
Your skills will also have a higher chance of reaching their maximum power. 】
Heroic expertise - Fearless Fighter is triggered!
Expertise Effect: After entering combat, you will gain a layer of "Fierce Fighting" BUFF every 60 seconds, reducing all your energy consumption by 1%. The longer you fight the enemy, the less energy your combat skills/magic/powers consume, and the maximum energy consumption can be reduced by 60%. 】
Since the fierce battle BUFF has been fully stacked at this time, the mana and fel power he consumes are only 40% of the original. More than 2,000 mana can be used as 5,000, and 1,000 points of fel power can be used as 2,500 points.
The lone hero's heroic expertise allows him to use his skills to their maximum power.
With the infusion of fel power, the storm gradually began to glow with a fel green color. The fel knowledge that he had learned when studying the Fel Grimoire instantly emerged in his mind.
Fel energy is a violent and primitive energy. The simplest way to use it is to detonate its energy and trigger fel fire. This is also the easiest fel magic for all demons to master.
At this moment, Murphy's mind moved, and the evil power in the storm was instantly ignited, forming a swirling evil flame. The whole storm was like a huge green fire tornado, constantly spreading, and soon covered most of the Tauren camp.
The insects continued to rush in, but were ignited by the evil storm and burned into green corpses.
Fire is powered by wind and its power is doubled.
A huge hurricane of fel flames gradually took shape.
The kill notification instantly filled the screen.
You killed the Ahn'Qiraj Hunter and earned 345 experience points.
You killed the Ahn'Qiraj Drones and gained 380 experience points.
You slew the Ahn'Qiraj Diggers and gained 340 experience points.
You killed the Silithids of Ahn'Qiraj and gained 360 experience points.
You killed the night elf adventurer, you gained 450 experience points, and you increased your sin point by one point.
You killed the Centaur Ranger, you gained 290 experience points, and you increased your sin points.
You killed...
Damn, it’s so powerful?
Murphy was surprised and delighted as he watched the storm spread and cover an area of more than five kilometers. The last time he used this combination of skills was when he fought the tribe in the wetlands.
At that time, it was just for a breakout, so the power wasn't that great.
At that time, in order to increase the lethality, he had to activate the Dragon Thunder Storm in the storm, and then he was able to create a way out.
However, this time, the fire vortex brought by the ore storm killed countless insects.
And it's indiscriminate killing.
Yes, this game doesn't have a setting where friendly forces are immune. As long as the magic hits the target, it will definitely cause damage.
Fortunately, most of the creatures in this camp had already died or escaped, and there were only a few left, and almost all of them were notifications of insect kills.
All those huge swarms of insects were drawn into it.
In the distance, at the Zerg army's main camp, Ner'zhul looked at the fel energy storm that was gradually taking shape, but he had a ferocious expression on his face.
Aidan, it's you damn human again!
Although Ner'zhul did not see Prince Aidan summon the fel storm with his own eyes, he had heard the warlord chiefs who participated in the war mention it, especially the ruthless tyrant, who exaggerated the power of the storm.
At that time, Ner'zhul thought that this kid was making excuses for his failure, but now he suddenly realized that he was really powerful.
…
System prompt: You have upgraded.
With a flash of golden light, Murphy leveled up directly.
Murphy was not surprised, his experience bar was still increasing rapidly.
go ahead!
He swung Storm Control violently, and the fel storm began to rotate and move forward under his control.
Murphy quickly severed his connection with the storm. In just a few minutes, all 1,000 points of fel energy were used up, and more than half of his own mana was also consumed.
The scale and lethality of the fel storm before him far exceeded the one he had summoned in the wetlands. Due to the buff of the Fearless Fighter, the power of this storm was 2.5 times that of the last one.
When the storm began to move forward and gradually left the Tauren camp, what was left behind was a devastated land ravaged by the Zerg and the storm.
There were broken bodies and wreckage of buildings everywhere.
From a distance, it looked like a huge green sweeper, constantly devouring the lives of countless Ahn'Qiraj Zerg.
The ocean-like Ahn'Qiraj Zerg either fled madly to the sides or were swept up in the storm, devoured and burned into green charred remains.
The Great Emperor Shenwu trotted over, looking at the constantly moving evil energy storm with a look of shock.
At this time, teams of Centaur troops quickly rushed over and guarded the Emperor Shenwu.
Emperor Shenwu (King of Centaurs): "Immediately dispatch craftsmen to rebuild the defense system here and mobilize 30,000 troops to fill the defense line."
After giving orders to his men, he looked at Murphy again.
"What kind of magic are you using? The divine skill of the God of Storms? No, when did the power of the God of Storms turn into fel energy? I heard that you used it once when fighting orcs, but I didn't expect it to be so powerful."
Just as Murphy was about to answer, a golden light flashed on his body and he leveled up again.
"Don't worry about it. My attack is enough to break through the Zerg army's line. If you want to counterattack, you'd better lead your troops to attack immediately."
The Shenwu Emperor reacted immediately. This man-made fel energy storm covered an area with a diameter of five or six kilometers, almost one-third of the front line. As it rotated forward, it swept all the Ahn'Qiraj Zerg in a straight line in the middle into it, and those that were not swept in also ran away, which was equivalent to directly clearing a safe passage.
This is a good opportunity to break through the enemy lines and kill the enemy leader in one fell swoop.
Emperor Shenwu (King of the Centaurs): "Soldiers of the Centaur clan, mobilize all reserve troops - follow me to charge!"
At the command, tens of thousands of elite cavalry were immediately drawn up from the rear front.
At this time, the storm had advanced for several kilometers, leaving behind countless corpses and fragments of Ahn'Qiraj Zerg and junk equipment as far as the eye could see.
Although the storm is quite lethal, it is relatively scattered and is of little use against the BOSS. Even elite monsters can escape before being burned to death as long as they react quickly. However, ordinary Ahn'Qiraj Zerg have no tricks and are basically doomed to die if they are caught in it.
With a flash of golden light, Murphy upgraded again.
The Great Emperor Shenwu led tens of thousands of Centaurs and chased after the hurricane.
Oh my god, I actually leveled up five levels.
Mo Fei was surprised and delighted. He had deliberately put on the amulet that Wang Xuan had given him to increase his experience points, but he didn't expect it to be so cool.
At this time, Tyrande and other high-ranking night elves also rushed over with their troops . The fel hurricane cast by Murphy almost broke the center line of the Zerg in Ahn'Qiraj, and also disrupted the offensive on both sides, allowing the night elves to transfer manpower.
But looking at the charred ground left behind by the fel hurricane, the faces of these night elf leaders were gloomy. They recognized the properties of this energy - fel energy, which is the power used by demons.
Ten thousand years before the War of the Ancients, Sargeras used this very power when he sent the Burning Legion into this world.
That brutal war completely destroyed the Night Elf Empire, and the Well of Eternity also exploded, directly splitting the entire original continent into four pieces.
This earth-shattering scene left a deep impression on every night elf who experienced it and survived.
Everything stems from that disaster.
The evil energy storm before them reminded them of the forgotten past.
Tyrande (High Priestess of the Moon Goddess): "Prince Aidan, after the war is over, I hope you can give us a reasonable explanation."
Aidan (Protector of Alterac): "Haha, there's no need to wait until the war is over. I can tell you the answer now. You still remember Aegwynn, right?"
Murphy certainly had his words ready.
Tyrande nodded. "The human guardian?"
Fandral Staghelm said sarcastically, "It turns out that you have been involved with humans for a long time. Humph... It seems that you have concealed a lot of things."
Tyrande glanced at Fandral Staghelm and said, "The guardian dragon told us about Aegwynn."
Tyrande's casual words made Fandral Staghelm choke.
Since the guardian dragons fought side by side with Tyrande and Malfurion during the War of the Ancients, they only recognized these two as the leaders of the night elves. This made Fandral Staghelm somewhat jealous. I am also an archdruid and a high-ranking night elf. Why don't you take me seriously?
Aidan (Protector of Alterac): "Yes, it's her. Hundreds of years ago, Sargeras invaded the world again in the form of an avatar. Aegwynn defeated Sargeras's avatar and sealed his body in the Temple of the Moon in the Broken Isles with the help of the blue dragon. The Temple of the Moon is also known as the Tomb of Sargeras."
This time it was Tyrande's turn to be angry. These guardian dragons were so shameless that they actually used the holy Temple of the Moon as the tomb of the demon Sargeras. It was simply unforgivable.
"Although Sargeras's clone was defeated, his residual soul could not be destroyed. In order to prevent it from continuing to do evil, Aegwynn and I sealed this power and made an artifact - Sargeras's Ring of Domination!"
Murphy showed the ring on his hand as he spoke, which immediately attracted the attention of several people.
"This is - an artifact? The Ruling Ring of Sargeras. It has such a powerful force. No wonder..." Fandral Staghelm said with a dazed look in his eyes. Suddenly, he became furious. "How dare you use the evil power of Sargeras!"
"So what? If I hadn't made my move, you would have already failed. It's not too much to say thank you."
Malfurion said solemnly, "I hope you know what you are doing, Prince Aidan. Fel energy will corrupt the soul of the user. Corruption is only a matter of time. I know this very well. My brother Illidan once vowed that he could control this power, but in the end he was corrupted..."
"Don't worry Archdruid. I know what I'm doing. It's just fel energy. My will is stronger than you know. Now, let's focus on this war and get rid of the Zerg army first."
In the past, Murphy was more or less worried about being corroded by evil energy, but now that he has the body of an ancient dragon, he is no longer worried. The thing an ancient dragon's body is least afraid of is being corroded.
As for exposing the secret of the Ring of Domination, on the one hand, it cannot be hidden even if one wants to. After summoning the fel storm twice, at least those who have witnessed it will definitely guess.
But the most important thing is that with Murphy's current strength, he no longer has to worry about others coveting his equipment.
Besides this, there is another reason.
Murphy was ready to start earning money by grinding equipment, so naturally he had to show off.
Of course, he was not going to steal other people's equipment, but was going to assign artifact missions to adventurers and make money by copying equipment.
This is a divine weapon. Even if it is a knockoff version used only by adventurers, it is not expensive to sell it for one or two million. As long as a dozen or twenty pieces are sold, the money will come.
Of course, Murphy's copy of the artifact does not come out of thin air. It also requires a large number of points to copy it. However, the wool comes from the sheep. As long as the income from the assigned tasks is greater than the cost of generating the task rewards, there is profit to be made.
