Volume 1: Frostmourne Chapter 241: The Day of Glory Comes(1/2)
----------
, and was frightened out of his wits. The strangest thing was that he didn't feel the pain at the entrance of the Bei Cave. He looked at his white hand bones as if he was stupid, and screamed in agony!
However, the people in the Hunter Guild are doing their own things, as if they are deaf.---------------------
The skin and flesh left on the shoulders of the black-robed mage slowly melted. It was sucked into the body of the black-robed man like grease seeping into fluffy soil. Suddenly a voice sounded in the big man's ears: "Because you are dead, there is no one
The screams of ghosts can be heard.
After hearing these words, the big man walked straight out of the hunter's guild gate as if he had been possessed by something evil. He came to a deserted corner, and then, without any warning, his huge body shrank quickly like a deflated balloon, as if
The thousand-year decay process of the corpse was compressed into a moment. In just a few seconds, the big man had turned into a pile of white bones. With a crackling sound, it was scattered on the ground and piled up, and then the bones slowly weathered,
It becomes a powder, and when the wind blows, it disappears without a trace, truly evaporating from the world.
At the same time, the black-robed mage in the Hunter's Guild stretched out his hand, which was unusually plump. The receptionist was surprised to see such a skinny mage having such plump hands.
She noticed that there was a black mole on the hand with a tuft of hair growing on it. Isn't this the same as the hand of the leader of the Tiger Hunter Group? What a coincidence. Huh? I just saw him standing behind, why?
Disappeared in the blink of an eye?
Time passed peacefully, Tacita disappeared, and then Xieshuang also disappeared, leaving many nobles who were thinking about flattering him unable to find anyone.
The selection was carried out in an orderly manner, and more than half a month passed. The Netherworld Emperor City ushered in a grand celebration and glory day.
In Duota Continent, Glory Day is the most solemn festival. Generally speaking, Glory Day is the National Day. However, the Netherworld has not established a unified country, so there is no such thing as National Day.
The current Glory Day in the Netherworld Imperial City is actually the National Day of the Davian Mercenary Empire a thousand years ago. Although the three dragon knight brothers have disappeared and the empire has been shattered, the tradition of walking through the Glory Day has been passed down.
At this time, there was a city in Rongqiu City in the northwest of the Netherworld.
Every Glory Day for the Hunter Guild is a relatively free time of the year. Very few caravan girls would choose to travel on Glory Day. When there are fewer caravans, there will naturally be fewer robbers.
In front of Lan Lu stood the black mage from half a month ago again. Seeing him, Lan Lu frowned slightly. How could it be such a coincidence that she was the one to receive it? She really didn't want to face such a strange man. It made people uncomfortable.
Out of breath.
An hour ago, the Hunter's Guild had just received news that Taxixia had been found, so it notified the person who commissioned the task. However, the five people who came to the Hunter's Guild with the task list were not the five strange-looking people wearing black cloaks.
But it was this mysterious black-clothed mage who came to the Hunter Guild not long ago to publish Xianshuang.
It's normal when you think about it. The black mage's attire is similar to the previous five people. It's not surprising that they are in the same group.
She checked the black-clothed mage's mission record and said, "I'm very sorry. We have found out the identity of Xianshuang you are looking for. He is a teacher from Krisif Academy. But he disappeared half a month ago. So you applied for
The task was never completed
After a pause, Lan Lu added: "Tacita is also missing, but we have provided her information. According to regulations, this task has been completed.
Lan Lu was careful when she said this, her eyes glancing at the black-clothed mage's face from time to time, just for fear that he would be displeased. Unfortunately, the black-clothed mage's face was hidden in the shadow of the black cloak, so she couldn't see it properly at all.
"It doesn't matter. Well, you can cancel the mission for me. I just want to know the whereabouts of Taxisha. The black-clothed mage's voice seemed to be synthesized by magic. It was as hard as metal, making the hair on your body stand on end.
Hearing that the black-clothed mage said that the mission was to be cancelled, Lan Lu was very happy because she would no longer have to see this man in the future.
"Taxixia is in the Chrisif family. Lan Lu lowered her voice when she said this. The Hunters Guild is a free organization and is unwilling to be associated with national political wars. The Chrisif family can be said to be the royal family of the Netherworld.
It would be bad if their information brought some trouble to the royal family.
"Christoph family. The black-clothed mage muttered silently, seeming to be thinking about something.
Lan Lu felt a little strange. Although the Hunter Guild was the second largest organization in the Netherworld and had a very broad area of influence, the Imperial City was not within their sphere of influence. It was the territory of the Mercenary Guild.
And a place like the royal palace like the Chrissy family is even more forbidden to them. It is difficult for a hunter organization to extend its strength into a big family. After all, who can be a noble wants to live such a life of licking blood from the edge of a knife?
, who sent this information?
She was curious and couldn't help but find the provider of the information. He was just a man who claimed to be a guard of the Chrisif family. This identity was not credible. How could a guard of the Chrisif family serve the Hunter Guild? And if
He is not a member of the Hunter's Guild. It is impossible for him to know the secrets of the Hunter's Guild.
The authenticity of this piece of information seems to be very questionable. Although the bounty can only be given after the employer confirms that the task is completed, it does not rule out the possibility of mischief makers. So Lan Lu kindly reminded: "This piece of information is not from any hunter."
It was sent by the organization. It was sent by one person. Credibility is not guaranteed.
"Who?"
"It is said that he is a guard of the Chrissy family. He did not want to give his name. Lan Lu shrugged and just hoped that this evil star would leave quickly. "There is a teleportation array between the imperial capital and Rongqiu. It is very convenient to travel. You can teleport now.
It only takes a few minutes for the formation to reach the Netherworld Imperial Capital.
At this time, the imperial capital was immersed in the joy of the festival, and had no idea that a legendary hero-level necromancer had arrived quietly.
The streets of the imperial capital are decorated with lights and colorful decorations. The maple trees on both sides of the road have turned slightly red. Candied haws and various festive crafts are on sale.
The ten major families in the imperial capital will hold grand banquets on Glory Day to commemorate the martyrs who sacrificed their lives for the country and to inspire future generations.
Of course, the Chrissy family will not be an exception. The banquet will last until midnight, until the bell rings on the Day of Glory.
The eldest prince is in charge of the internal affairs of the Krisif family, and he has always been responsible for organizing banquets. At this time, he was standing respectfully in front of the Imperial Majesty, reporting to his father on the preparations for the banquet.
The eldest prince's father is the head of the Krisif family, Riduk Krisif. At this time, he was wearing his own festive attire under the service of his maid.
He was very satisfied with the eldest prince's report. Although his son did not have any outstanding talent in terms of cultivation and upgrading, he always did everything well in everything he did.
"Is there anyone coming from the Dark Temple?" Lidu straightened his collar. He was also very satisfied with his tailor-made festive attire.
"Back to father, the ceremony of the priests has not ended yet. You cannot come." The eldest prince replied respectfully.
"Well, it doesn't matter. It was originally just a family banquet. It was not a formal occasion and it was not a coronation ceremony." Lidu paused when he said the word coronation. He looked at the eldest prince and smiled and said: "Glory Day
As soon as the celebration is over, your competition will begin. Are you afraid that you will lose to the fourth or sixth child in this competition?"
The eldest prince shook his head, "The fourth brother and the sixth brother are extremely talented. Their skills are inferior to others. Even if they lose, they will be convinced."
Lidu nodded, "That's good if you think so. In fact, you are the most stable among my children, so the position of head of the family is more suitable for you. The fourth child is too extreme, his brain is not very good, and he only thinks about unification.
In the Netherworld, now that the Witch Doctor's Tower is gone, he is sharpening his sword even more. If the Netherworld is really so easy to unify, I would have become emperor long ago. As for Lao Liu, even I, the father, don't know he is there.
What are you thinking about? Needless to say, the third child thinks about women every day and is not a great person. I really like the seventh girl, but it’s a pity that she is too weak.”
"I can't help it. The rules set by our ancestors are like this, and it's hard for my father to violate them." Lidu paused for a moment, "Why do I feel that the life energy in your body is a little disordered today, and you also have some death energy in your body? Didn't you do it?"
What skills did you learn from the undead clan?"
Long Tian replied without changing his expression: "No, I think it may be that I have upgraded and fought too frequently recently, so the energy has been a bit disordered. As for the death energy, it may be that the Shadow Spirit equipped on me has been charged too much recently.
So some soul energy spilled out."
"Yes." Lidu nodded. The Shadow Spirit Gold can indeed emit some aura of the undead. "It is best not to practice the undead techniques. Although those things can quickly improve one's own attributes, they will overdraw the life potential and lead to a loss of life.
Harmful to the body.”
"Qinchen understands."
"Speaking of which, the third child is unwilling to lose, isn't he?"
The eldest prince nodded and said: "Yes, the third brother went to the grove in the northwest corner of the inner city and said he wanted to be quiet."
Lidu frowned. "The banquet on the Day of Glory is the most important family celebration. If it is treated as a child's play, it will bring misfortune to the family. As one of the heirs, the third child, how can he be absent? Go and find him."
”.
"I accept your order." The eldest prince Long Tian responded and flew out of the middle palace.
Lidu looked at the hourglass. The banquet would only start in about half an hour. He walked to the desk and came down. He flipped through the letters sent by the family generals.
The Chrisif family has an army of millions. It is not too difficult to conquer the entire Netherworld, but the new force occupying the Witch Doctor's Tower makes Ridu worried.
Kel'Thuzad, the name is quite deceiving. It has the same name as Kel'Thuzad, the man who summoned Archimonde 10,000 years ago.
Lidu simply didn't believe that a real person like Kel'Thuzad would come to a small place like the Netherworld. Even if he came, he wouldn't be interested in occupying a broken tower.
Although the Netherworld covers an area of 20 million square kilometers, compared to the entire Duota Continent, it is just an inconspicuous small place.
A legendary figure like Kel'Thuzad would definitely choose the Frozen Throne or the World Tree to appear. At the worst, it would be a place where powerful people like Dalaran or Lordaeron gather. What are you doing in the Netherworld, traveling?
?
It was getting dark, and when he saw that it was almost time, Lidu stood up and was about to change his clothes for the banquet. Long Tian quickly ran into the hall, with a panicked look on his face. He didn't even rush to salute, "Father, third brother, third brother.
He was killed."
The expression on Lidu's face froze instantly. "What did you say?"
"The third brother was killed, and I saw it with my own eyes."
"Who did it? Where?"
"In the woods in the northwest corner of the inner city. Erchen went there to look for his third brother and saw him fighting a man in black. When Erchen rushed over, his third brother was already covered in wounds. Erchen's strength was mediocre, although he joined the battle.
, still failed to save the third brother. I watched him die under the strange magic of the man in black. I was no match for him, so I could only flee in a hurry."
"What kind of weird magic?"
"My son, I don't know."
Lidu's expression changed again and again. Since the mysterious man failed to keep Long Tian, his strength should not be much higher than his. It is estimated that he is between the first and second level. Lidu clenched his fists and his joints crackled. "
The dignity of the Krisif family cannot be desecrated, Long Tian. You go find Commander Lan Yi of the Imperial Guard, and I will go meet this guy!"
"yes!"
Lidu's whole body was bursting with energy, and his body was like a meteor in the dark night. He flew across the buildings to the north gate of the palace in an instant. Although Lidu knew a little about strategy, as a fierce warrior of the Chrissy family, he preferred to use the most powerful methods.
