A bright green light accurately hit the chest of Mathias Shore, the leader of MI7 in Stormwind City, from the head of Lana's staff. Then, in the astonished expression of the other party, a strong green light Knock it away hard and throw it away!
Mathias Shore, who was still moving backwards and doing free parabolic motion in the air, had a face full of disbelief. At this time, the daggers in his hands had fallen from the palms of his hands that he no longer had the strength to hold. He just arched his body backwards, without screaming or bleeding. He was just thrown away into the night behind him like a rag bag by the enemy...
puff! !
There was a muffled sound when the body hit the ground. Although it was not very loud, the effect was indeed immediate!
Those MI7 killer agents who were still fighting, originally on the left side of the fire wall, had some advantages in besieging the ragtag Defias Brotherhood members and Pete, a high-level soldier!
Although they were a little constrained in this kind of face-to-face battle, their skills were obviously much better than their opponents, and they were resolutely able to suppress their enemies in a life-and-death fight!
But now, they were frightened when they saw that the leader of MI7 of the Kingdom of Storms, Mr. Mathias, was knocked away by the female mage with a spell and fell far away without moving. When they were stunned, they all started sprinting, quickly retreated from the battle, put some distance between them, and then quickly disappeared into the darkening night...
"Did we win?"
Peter felt a little unbelievable when he found those enemies who had fled in an instant.
"This is really terrible... These guys are really difficult to deal with. I would rather fight twice as many enemy troops than fight these cunning thieves! Sister, if it weren't for your spell, they wouldn't be able to fight." If you can't sneak up close, I'm afraid I won't be able to withstand it for a long time!"
Shaking away the blood on his broadsword, he looked sadly at the messy battlefield on the surrounding ground where there were obviously more corpses of his own people than the enemy's. As the wasteland fires gradually started to set off a prairie fire, Peter finally relaxed. Tone, slowly walked to his sister Lana's side.
"No... we haven't won yet, there is a more powerful guy coming! You must be careful!"
Compared to her brother Peter's optimism, Lana was much more cautious, so she immediately discovered the incoming powerful enemy.
"No way...still coming?!"
Sure enough, following Lana's words and solemn gaze, Peter also saw the two strong flying gryphon mounts that suddenly swooped down in the distant sky. They seemed to be parked on the spot that his sister Lana had just killed. Next to the body of the unlucky guy who was shot away with the green light.
There were two people on the other side. One of the dwarves was yelling and jumping on the corpse, while the human next to him was holding a long staff, almost as tall as a person, with the head of the staff shining blue. The colored arcane light slowly approached and he stared at the body of a certain big shot on the ground with slight concentration.
"McClery, please get out of my way first..."
After arrogantly using his staff to push away the obstructing dwarf, the human mage wearing a wizard's peaked hat half-crouched next to the corpse and began to examine it carefully.
He was obviously in disbelief. He didn't expect that the leader of their Storm Kingdom's MI7 Service would die here? Just before he arrived, he was beaten to death by a mage of unknown origin right under his nose?
"I saw your spell just now when I was in the sky... However, there were no wounds on his body... There were no traces of magic infusion or burning... But he died like this..."
After observing for a while, the mage nodded and stood up.
He no longer paid attention to the howling dwarf, and took a few steps forward to stand about fifty meters away from the witch standing by the wall of fire. He didn't care about the spreading fires. When he came, he could tell from the clouds in the sky that there would be a heavy rain here tonight. The fires would definitely be under control and they would not be able to burn the surrounding farms. of.
"You should be the mysterious witch who participated in the assassination of the Duke, right? Sure enough, you look very powerful..."
"It's just... I don't understand. How did Mathias Shaw die? The magic items on his body should be able to resist a certain amount of damage to him! But now... although It's a bit rude, but can I take the liberty to ask: What spell did you use to kill him? Just now, we only saw a burst of green light in the sky. Could it be a fel spell? But I think you Doesn’t seem to be a warlock…”
This is what makes this middle-aged human mage a little puzzled. The death of the assassin leader of MI7 has nothing to do with him and is not his responsibility! However, the opponent clearly had two good magical passive protective equipment on his body, but they showed no trace of being activated, so he was killed by the enemy directly?
He was really curious about this! You know, mages are a group of curious guys, especially when they see novel spells.
"..."
"What I just used was dark magic...a death curse!"
After sensing the magic fluctuations on the opponent's body with some solemnity, Lana tightened the wand in her hand again. After staring at the opponent for a while, she thought about it and honestly told her what she had just used. Vada Kedavra. It's just the name of a spell. Can the other party learn it secretly?
Actually, although the magic book written about the Unforgivable Curses, Lana prefers to call them black magic! At the same time, the book also contains the Imperius Curse to control people and the Cruciatus Curse to torture people. They both fall into the category of the Unforgivable Curse.
As for why it says unforgivable, Lana is not sure.
"Death-killing curse..."
"Die directly after being hit by a spell, or is it a spell that determines instant death like the finger of death? Ha! This is really strange..."
Compared to Lana, this mage is a bit noncommittal about black magic.
In his opinion, as long as it is not necromancy like Kel'Thuzad's Curse Cult, which plays with the soul and is shouted at by everyone, there is no difference between black magic and white magic in other things? Even now, even the Warlock profession, which uses demonic energy and enslaves demons, has established its foothold in the world of Azeroth openly!
"Forget it, let's forget about these things for now. Before we start fighting, let's introduce ourselves first..."
"I am Archmage Kom. I have studied arcane specialization in Dalaran before. Although I have dabbled in other spells, I am not proficient in it! Now I am a court mage in the Kingdom of Stormwind, serving Stormwind City. She is also the secondary mage advisor and mage tower researcher of the Kingdom of Stormwind! May I ask which period of Dalaran this witch is from, and which sect he practices in?"
Not only did the other party team up with Vanessa Van Cleef to assassinate Duke Greg Leskova, but now he also killed Mathias Shore of MI7. This matter...if he didn't use all his strength to kill or capture him. If you betray the other party, you will definitely not be able to go back and explain!
However, what makes Arcane Archmage Kom a little strange is that in his perception, the opponent's magic power fluctuations do not seem to be strong. Let alone high-level, the opponent's current mana level is at most mid-level. A little higher level, right? So, how did she kill Mathias Shore, the master assassin?
Kom felt that when the opponent chanted or guided the spell, Mathias should have the opportunity to strike first. How could he be beaten to death by the spell? !
Anyway, there is something weird about this matter!
It's a pity that he came a little late just now... Of course, don't get me wrong, what is regrettable for Archmage Kom is not the death of Mathias. Anyway, he doesn't like these killers in the shadows, and he won't do it if he dies. Take another look! His regret was that he couldn't come earlier and observe the opponent's spellcasting and fighting methods!
"Sister, ignore him! You'll cover me later, and I'll charge forward and chop him to death?"
After hearing the other party's self-reported name and background, Peter, who was standing next to Lana, squeezed his weapon tightly and suggested.
Since his sister said that the other party was very powerful, she definitely couldn't let her fight against the enemy alone. Maybe later he could command all the people to rush up and hack the opponent to death with random swords?
"No... just go away and watch from the sidelines. Pay attention to help me alert those thieves and assassins. They must not have gone far!"
"Also...if things go wrong for me later, I will apparate to you. Then remember to hold on tight to me. If we can't fight, run away!"
Lana has no intention of fighting to the death at all. If she can fight, she will fight. If she can't fight, she will run away. She will find an opportunity to get revenge! You know, this is the only way Her Majesty Queen Anne gave her, and she has always regarded it as the truth.
Therefore, Lana rejected her brother's proposal and instead whispered into his ear.
"Ahem..."
The arcane archmage Kom in the distance is a little impatient. If he hadn't wanted to respect some etiquette and wait for the other party to announce his name before starting a duel according to the rules of the mages, he would have started the fight long ago. Where? And let the other party whisper over there?
"My name is Lana. I used to be a lady-in-waiting to Her Majesty Queen Anne of the Fire Kingdom, and I still am! Unlike the spells you learned in Dalaran, my spells are self-taught! I am a spell mage, not you Any series you know!”
Following suit, Lana clenched her staff and secretly alerted the other party, while speaking out her name and identity loudly.
"I think you are probably joking..."
"How can you learn spells by yourself? Those who don't understand magic know how to envy spell casters, but how do they know that spell casters are a very dangerous profession... If you are not careful, you may fail to guide the spell or cast spells randomly. It backfires on itself! Therefore, there can be no self-taught mages, no matter how genius they are!"
Archmage Kom is very sure about this!
You know, when Dalaran was not destroyed, it was said that one of the most talented mage Jaina Proudmoore was still working as an apprentice under Antonidas and slowly learning magic? Without a certain foundation and a full understanding of the principles of the magical world, self-taught magic is just a joke!
"..."
"But I learned my magic by myself! Our Majesty, Queen Anne, disliked my poor qualifications and my stupidity, so she just threw a magic book at me and ignored it..."
Speaking of this, Lana feels a little aggrieved now! Except for correcting a few mistakes at the beginning and warning her not to learn some dangerous spells casually, Her Majesty the Queen no longer cares about her!
Lana still remembers Her Majesty the Queen's exact words: Here! Sister Lana, did you see it? Here is the "Hogwarts Spell Book", it is a quick guide, you just need to practice it! Take it and play with it yourself, take your time and read it, it’s best if you can understand it. If you don’t understand it, don’t ask me...
"Besides, I don't think there's any danger in learning magic by yourself. Anyway, just practice it a few more times and you'll be fine!"
Is this true, because if Lana fails to cast her own spell, at most she will not be able to cast the spell, just like the squib mentioned in the book? Or, there are just some strange sparks and smoke coming out of the head of the staff, and nothing dangerous will happen.
Of course, some spells are still very dangerous. You cannot practice them casually until you reach a certain level! Just like those apparation and Animagus transformation techniques performed on oneself, these are very dangerous. Until now, Lana has not dared to try those transformation techniques for fear that she would not be able to change back.
"..."
After staring at the other party silently and feeling that the other party was not lying, Archmage Kom really had the urge to hit the wall!
You know, he studied everywhere, started as an apprentice, accumulated little by little, and spent half his life to reach this point... But the other party, he could learn so well by self-study, and he was told that he was stupid and not qualified. , How high are Her Majesty’s Flame Queen’s qualification requirements for apprentices?
"I have heard about your Majesty the Queen. She is truly a legendary figure! I once wanted to study in the Kingdom of Fire, but unfortunately, she has been missing for many years..."
There is a saying that is right, only the caster can truly understand the caster!
Archmage Kom saw the power of Archimonde the Defiler from the destroyed Dalaran, and also roughly guessed the terror of Archimonde from Queen Anne's ability to defeat Archimonde... So , compared to the various slanders and slanders directed at Her Majesty the Queen by others in the Kingdom of Stormwind, Kom himself has always been cautious and dare not make rash comments.
He felt that even if the opponent was not as good as Archimonde, there shouldn't be much difference. Otherwise, Archimonde could have directly destroyed Stratholme, and where would the City of Fire be?
"Okay, there's no point in talking anymore!"
"Although I am a little bit suspicious of bullying you, if you don't want to go back to Stormwind City with me to accept the crime, then it's almost time for us to take action now!"
"Now, please let other irrelevant personnel retreat. I can promise you: I will only fight you today. After I catch you, as long as they don't come to cause trouble, I will never embarrass them!"
Archmage Kom has his own principles and dignity, and now it is a bit contrary to his bottom line to start a fight with this young mage whose mana fluctuations are obviously weaker than his own. Therefore, he will only capture this talented mage named Lana today. Then take him back to Stormwind City alive!
Although the other party killed Mathias Shore, Kom still wanted to fight for the other party. If he could persuade him to surrender, maybe he would let this young mage be his apprentice and inherit his inheritance?
You know, now he has a family, and he also has a lot of wealth and land, but he only lacks talents who can inherit his magic and protect his family in the future... And now, he has found a person who seems to be very good. He thought of recruiting apprentices.
Of course, this is just an immature idea!
After all, the old madman in Stormwind City, the legendary assassin Pasonia Shaw, is not dead yet. If the other party knows that her grandson died in the hands of this young female mage in front of her, there will be an uproar. ? When the time comes, it’s up to you whether you can subserve the other party!
Compared to him, the Archmage, I'm afraid the other party values MI7 more, right? Think about it, there are many archmages in Stormwind City, and MI7 was founded by Pasonia Shore. The attitude of the other party and the importance of his assassins to the kingdom are naturally self-evident. Already...
"Hmph! You want to capture me and take me back to Stormwind City? Then try your skills!"
"Collapse!"
With Lana's stern shout, a red light instantly blasted away from the head of her staff towards the enemy!
"Huh? Instant spell..."
He was shocked when he saw that the other party cast a strange spell instantly without any guidance. Archmage Kom did not dare to neglect, and directly cast a prism barrier in front of himself to protect him tightly. stand up!
Because he found that the opponent's spell was similar to the interaction of light and energy, and using a spiritual light barrier should be effective.
Sure enough, the next moment, the strange red magic hit his barrier, and was instantly reflected and exploded into a small crater in the wilderness grass, causing mud and grass clippings to splash everywhere.
"..."
Seeing the spell being fired, Kom was not surprised, but instead frowned a little. Because he found that the opponent's spell power did not seem to be very powerful. So, how did she kill Mathias Shore?
There seems to be something weird about this matter...
"Arcane barrage!"
In doubt, Archmage Kom pointed his staff at the enemy, and several bright blue arcane missiles bombarded the opponent! The power of this spell is not great, but he just wants to try to see the opponent's strength and details while solving the doubts in his heart.
"Armor protection!!!"
Seeing so many arcane missiles coming towards her from several directions, Lana did not dare to neglect, she shouted directly, raised her staff, and a large golden armor directly covered it like a big bell. she!
Boom! Boom! Boom!
Several dull bombardments sounded in succession, and then, with the explosion of the last arcane missile, the golden armor finally shattered into pieces and dissipated into pieces of magic power in the air...
"Ha! Interesting! Interesting!"
Seeing that his attack had no effect, Archmage Kom was not only not worried, but also laughed happily. Because he discovered that the spells used by the young witch seemed really different from those of the mages?
"snort!"
Lana ignored the weird archmage opposite. Instead, she waved her hand and shot a disarming spell towards him.
…
"..."
"Tibbers... Why do I seem to feel that someone is fighting nearby using the magic items I made? Who is it?"
At this time, in Moon Creek Town, which is not far from the Dimont Wilderness, Annie could easily feel a faint fluctuation of mana reaching her. It seemed that the magic items she had created were being used excessively?
However, she couldn't remember what she had lost in this world.
(My master, you once made an Ollivander's magic wand for your maid in this world...
——Tibbers, who has a biological computer memo function, is still very reliable. No, soon, he remembered some of the things his little master had done in this world. )
"Yeah... I also remembered it, it was that stick!!!"
Annie, who was bored in the hotel in Yuexi Town and had nothing to do, immediately jumped up from the uncomfortable big bed. Now, she seems to have finally found something fun for herself, that is: running and peeping to see who is fighting?
