Chapter 458 Why aren't you kneeling down to express your gratitude?
Lorraine felt a splitting headache and struggled repeatedly on the ground, clutching its head. It sensed that its teacher was also being attacked by a force, sending out painful feedback...
However, multiple forces rapidly enveloped every part of Lorraine's body...
The warmth of the mysterious Hearthstone, the trembling of the Ring of Frost, the thunderous power of the Tide Amulet stimulating the soul, the heroic spirit in the Horde emblem repeatedly stirring the undead will of Lorraine... The unassuming Supreme Ring, its hidden attributes activated... The Orb of Deception automatically releases a layer of illusion magic...
The remaining emblems, amulets, and seals all seemed to be vying for control of Lorraine's undead body, which had gained new power.
Unfortunately, the sunglasses on Lorraine's head, invisible to others, trembled slightly, and all power subsided. The negative effect of [Kel'Thuzad's Attention] seemed to have failed to fully penetrate, instead connecting directly to the Mirror of Truth...
The High Lich seemed to have sensed something... just like the Shadow Priest Xavius 21 days ago...
The High Lich didn't give it much thought; it didn't take the novice undead mage Lorraine seriously at all. The only thing that interested it was that unknown necromancer rune that Kel'Thuzad had given away years ago to woo a girl.
......
North and the others immediately lowered their heads sensually... but it still had an urge to kill Lorraine directly, especially after seeing the look of admiration on Kel'Thuzad's face and the so-called "Plaguebringer" insignia of the Undercity Royal Alchemy Society on Lorraine!
That was the shame and envy of scientists who suffered from natural disasters.
The Forsaken were underestimated; their spies seemed to have stolen a lot of the Scourge's secret technologies, resulting in the Scourge's mindless puppets falling behind the insignificant Forsaken apothecaries...
In contrast to the deadly green poisonous barrier floating on the sea, the Vrykul were also suppressed by the sudden appearance of a large number of Val'kyr attacks. Clearly, Sylvanas, the Dark Queen of Undercity, and her Forsaken under her command had become a force to be reckoned with!
The Val'kyr, these angels of death, are the Lich King's secret weapon; even the High Lich Kel'Thuzad, the Grand Master of the Scourge, dares not try to spy on them...
Under the Lich King, there were quite a few powerful subordinates similar to Kel'Thuzad. However, Kel'Thuzad's special identity was exposed early on, and he naturally came into the view of the major human powers.
The Angels of Death are also an elite legion under the Lich King...
While comparable to the Frost Dragonflight and even the Crypt Lords, Kel'Thuzad's own ragtag army was actually only a lower-middle-ranking force, consisting of the Scourge vanguard and garrison troops stationed in northern Lordaeron...
The elites were indeed taken away by the Lich King.
Kel'Thuzad, responsible for guarding and protecting the Lich King Arthas's Icecrown Citadel and various Death Fortresses, gradually surrounded the Titan ruins... Seeing the four-winged death angel from Undercity appear on his right, Kel'Thuzad sensed something was wrong... Perhaps the Lich King's plans in Northrend weren't progressing as smoothly as he had imagined.
The Burning Legion and the seemingly harmless Twilight Shadows have been threatening the Lich King.
The Lich King thus maintained a low profile, biding his time and accumulating strength... to prepare for the potential arrival of the Burning Legion or the lurking Void Lords. Unknown to outsiders, Arthas, the Lich King who had merged with Ner'zhul's soul, already knew everything about Outland. Furthermore, he gleaned the secrets of the Titans from clues recorded in the ruins of the Spider Demon Empire and from the Titan ruins...
The existence of the Old Gods made the Lich King realize that this world was never ruled by mere brutes...
Those charging ahead were actually some self-important minor characters who thought themselves the protagonists, but in reality, they were just insignificant pawns in the long river of history and on the chessboard.
As the second-in-command of the Scourge, his personal visit to the small Isle of Atonement was, of course, on the orders of the Lich King, to investigate the expansion of the Void forces.
The earthquake that struck Lorraine traveled to a distance he couldn't even imagine... Even the Lich King and the Dragon Aspects on other continents felt a lingering fear. A hundred thousand years is too long, ten thousand years is also too long... A few hundred years of conflict could write an epic poem, let alone the entanglements left over from the War of the Ancients on Azeroth, which continue to this day...
The opening of the Dark Portal was just another, albeit insignificant, struggle.
......
Meanwhile, Lorraine gained new abilities. It sensed a powerful, icy, deathly force that simultaneously nourished its existing ice magic and necromancy. Its runic right eye flickered; it only needed to absorb more powerful vengeful spirits to level up.
Even the long-subdued will of the dead seems to be awakening once more.
even so...
Lorraine suppressed his excitement and感慨, lying on the ground pretending to be dead, not daring to act recklessly in front of the High Lich Kel'Thuzad and the others. Lorraine had clearly felt the difference in power and level.
Even a lowly necromancer in Dalaran dared to challenge the young Jaina.
The young widow Jaina, a prodigy ice mage, was already at least a near-archmage. In fact, Kel'Thuzad was Jaina's senior apprentice; they were both disciples of Archmage Anton Danis, the lord of Dalaran...
After her teacher was killed by the Death Knight Arthas with the traitor Kel'Thuzad, Jaina naturally wanted revenge.
However, the Lich King's power grew stronger day by day, and even though Jaina was a genius, she was still just a mortal mage.
It is neither comparable to Aegwynn nor can it easily defeat the great lich Kel'Thuzad.
Back then, Kel'Thuzad was one of the six members of the Kirin Tor Council of Dalaran, a high-ranking and powerful figure, and a leader of the necromancy school and abyssal magic.
As the saying goes, "a newborn calf is not afraid of a tiger." Lorraine almost died in front of the ice magic archmage Jaina, showing relatively excellent performance, but in reality, it was extremely dangerous. Jaina did not go all out to deal with this undead spy.
Jaina received guidance from Aegwynn in Theramore, which is why she made such rapid progress... In a way, Lorraine and Jaina are from the same school... They have a connection, but neither of them knows it.
Later, after experiencing numerous battles in Dalaran and growing stronger, Lorraine came to understand the difference between physical strength and magical power.
......
Of course, mages cannot simply rely on strength to fight; mages are enhanced by intelligence.
The rudimentary experience of hitting zombies with a wooden stick is long gone. A true master mage must make good use of all skills and spells... skillfully using combos and adapting to the environment, winning with wisdom, strategy, courage, and reflexes.
Even if you can't win a fight, you must learn to retreat indirectly, use leverage, and utilize powerful weapons...
Lorraine's feigned death and her poor acting skills have always been despised.
It pretended to lie there, causing the disaster bosses present to pause slightly.
The normal reaction should be to thank the Grand Steward for the gift, swear allegiance, or at the very least, to firmly refuse or resist, allowing the calamity bosses to enjoy the feeling of conquest.
Kororin just lay there with her butt sticking up, creating an awkward moment...
It was surprisingly quiet.
