Warcraft Fortress

Chapter 183 The Battle of Karazhan's Tomb ([-])
When Xiao En and the others walked into the tomb, there was a sudden loud roar, and the passage they came in was blocked by a stone door.The stone gate descended from above, judging from its width, thickness and height, it must have weighed tens of thousands of catties.

Immediately afterwards, from other passages in the tomb, a large number of undead swarmed in.

Following the undead, twenty or thirty dark knights finally appeared. Together with the undead, they surrounded Sean and the others.

It was clearly premeditated.

The leading dark knight, who looked familiar, was the same dark knight who appeared in Night Town more than ten days ago and attacked Valorne trying to steal the Luna Scythe.

He is more powerful than the other dark knights and wields a powerful weapon filled with evil magical energy.

It was a two-handed giant sword, forged by a certain Dread Demon King himself, and it was once the side weapon of that Dread Demon King.

The two-handed greatsword later fell into the hands of a Tirisfal mage.The mage's inability to control the destructive power of the two-handed greatsword wreaked havoc.Since then, everyone who heard the name of this sword shuddered.

The name of this sword is: Apocalypse.

After Medivh found out about this, he sent a dark knight to seize the two-handed giant sword, and then conducted dark magic research.When he figured out the mystery of the sword, he rewarded the sword to the leader of the dark knights, "Aredin", and it became his weapon.

Yes, the dark knight holding the apocalypse is the leader of the dark knight, the first dark knight "Aredin" transformed by Medivh.

He used to be a cunning and insidious businessman who made a living by selling fake goods, and he did not know how many kind and honest people he had deceived.This dark knight was very smart before he became a dark knight.And when he became the Dark Knight, he used his intelligence for evil, becoming one of Medivh's most powerful servants.

He led his men to find at least two legendary weapons called artifacts, and the Luna Scythe should have been the third.

He is very insidious and cunning, so he waited until Sean and the others came to this catacomb, and finally led his dark knights to appear, and awakened a large number of undead.

It's a pity that he doesn't understand at all what kind of powerful existence his opponent is.

Aridin clenched the Greatsword of Apocalypse and shouted, "Kill them!"

As the leader of the Dark Knight, he has almost made himself the master of Deadwind Pass after Medivh's death.Apart from not daring to enter Karazhan, he has no scruples here.

Even though he was forced to retreat when he stole the Luna Scythe in Yese Town, he was not harmed.He also didn't think those people in Night City had the ability to hurt him.

He was already planning to choose an appropriate time to go to Night City again to take the Luna Scythe.

Ever since he was ordered by Medivh to search for the lost artifacts decades ago, he has had an indescribable enthusiasm for those artifacts that only existed in legends.Even if he couldn't control the power in the artifacts, he was willing to sacrifice everything, even his life and soul, to obtain those artifacts.

So even though Medivh is dead, he has gained freedom, and he has not left the Catacombs of Karazhan. He is still looking for the lost artifact, not for Medivh's order, but for the desire in his heart.

Aredin had been set free, but he himself bound himself again.

When Sean and the others appeared in the tomb, Eredin saw the Luna Scythe tightly held in Sean's hand at a glance.

This sickle must belong to oneself!
Before I went to pick it up, it was delivered to my door by myself!

Eredin was dazzled by the longing in his heart, and he didn't even realize that since the other party dared to break in here, how could he be unprepared?

When the dark knights and hundreds of undead surrounded them, Sean didn't move, Broll didn't move, Chromie didn't move, Olivia didn't move, and even Med'an didn't move.

Because they believed in Meri's magical power, and believed that he alone could wipe out all the enemies here.

The staff in Meri's hand was the one he had snatched from an evil necromancer when he first became a necromancer more than 2000 years ago.

Most of the staffs of necromancers are related to enslaving souls, and this staff of Meili is no exception.

At the beginning, when this staff was still in the hands of the evil necromancer, every time an enemy was destroyed, the necromancer would seal the enemy's soul into this staff.By the time Sean got this staff, hundreds of souls had been accumulated in it.

Meri didn't like to enslave souls. After all, he was not an orthodox evil necromancer, so he didn't make a new staff, but used the staff of that necromancer.

In the next 2000 years, he rarely fought with others, and generally only had one kind of fighting object, and that was demons.

Demons also have souls.

So for more than 2000 years, this staff has absorbed a large number of demon souls.

The staff of the necromancer, the more souls absorbed, the stronger the staff will be.

Although Meili's staff has not yet entered the legendary level, it has sealed hundreds of demon souls inside.This staff is considered a top-quality staff among the epic staffs.

Meili sometimes felt that he was no longer a necromancer, but a warlock.

Warlocks use the power of demons to enslave and command demons.

Merry often uses the power of the demon soul in the staff. Does this count as enslaving the demon?

The only difference is that Meri himself will not use evil energy, which is different from traditional warlocks.

Facing the large number of undead and dark knights rushing around, Meri only needed to wave his staff lightly, and the hundreds of souls accumulated in the staff were instantly released and rushed towards the surrounding undead.

The undead awakened by Aridin have hardly experienced combat.And each of the souls released by Merry was once a powerful warrior, spellcaster or demon.

The strengths of the two sides are not at the same level at all.

At the same time, a powerful undead magic energy emanated from Merry's staff, presenting a shock wave, impacting the dark knights rushing over.

The bodies of the dark knights obviously paused, but then they didn't seem to have suffered any trauma and continued to rush forward.

There was a hint of doubt on Merry's face hidden in the black hood.

Then he wanted to understand that the reason why his undead magic is difficult to harm those invading dark knights is because the dark knights are already filled with the evil magic energy of Karazhan, and there are also undead in this evil magic energy. The magic component, as well as the fel magic component of warlocks and demons.

Merry didn't think much of it.

Since undead magic doesn't work, don't use undead magic.

Necromancers are first and foremost mages, and the magic that mages do most is arcane magic.

Necromancers are good at necromancer magic, which doesn't mean they have forgotten arcane magic.

Before becoming a necromancer, Merry was an excellent arcanist, and he was best at ice magic.
