"Oh~!"
٩(๑´0`๑)۶
"Eh?"
(๑•̌.•̑๑)ˀ̣ˀ̣
When Annie was lying on the grass, surrounded by flowers, and thinking about where she should go to have some fun, she suddenly discovered: the recent The apprentice girl who has become even more diligent during this period, Irena, who is known as Roberta's youngest genius trainee witch, and who defeated the long-established official witch at the age of fourteen, is actually holding a book. He quickly slid down the spiral staircase in the tree house and ran towards the place where he was.
"..."
(°ー°〃)
"What's wrong with you?"
(ˊ•͈ꇴ•͈ˋ)
"If you don't understand anything, can't you just ask Tibbers the Bear?"
(｡•ˇ‸ˇ•｡)
Seeing the other party coming to her with a book in her arms, Anne asked unhappily without waiting for the other party to speak.
Because, the other party has been asking too many weird questions recently, just like a curious baby. How can she have so much patience to answer each other one by one?
Anyway, even if the other party is her apprentice in name, she can at most just give him a few pointers when she is in a good mood. But in normal times, such as now, she still hopes to hand over the work of guiding the other party's magic learning directly. Tibbers the Bear, that stupid guy who doesn't know magic, took care of it for him.
As for how the guy who doesn't know magic can guide him well, that's none of her business.
"Teacher, teacher!"
"Look, what does the 'Horcrux' in this book mean? Can it really make people immortal and achieve that kind of eternal life?"
Holding the book "Poisonous Magic", Irena knelt down directly next to Anne and read the sentence on a certain page of the book: "About Horcrux, the most evil magical invention, I will not discuss it here. "I won't give you any guidance," she asked anxiously to her teacher Anne.
Although she also wanted to ask Little Bear about it, he just had a falling out with assistant coach Fran, and now those two guys are dueling in the arena, so he has no time to pay attention to her now!
Therefore, she could only ask her, the real teacher, about it now.
"Look quickly!"
"This book is really weird. It clearly states that 'horcruxes' are things that can make people achieve eternal life, but it insists on saying that they are evil without giving any detailed explanation..."
"What on earth is going on? What is a Horcrux?"
With a look of impatience on her face, Irena's curiosity was aroused, but she couldn't get a satisfactory explanation. She had no choice but to run to her teacher, pleading with a shy face.
"..."
(lll￢▽￢) It turns out to be a Horcrux...
"Um... Irena... people think it's better for you not to study it?"
(′～`●)
Of course Anne knew what a Horcrux was, wasn't it the noseless monster who was captured alive by Miss Hermione?
Horcruxes and the like, those things can indeed extend life, but... in her opinion, that method is probably the worst of the countless stupid ways to extend life. It's completely There is no need to learn or imitate!
"But why?"
"teacher!"
"It's magical, isn't it? But why is it so secretive in this magic book that it refuses to write out the specific production methods?"
"What the hell is going on?!"
If it was written openly in the book, Irena might have ignored it after just one glance. But now, the other party only wrote a little bit in a vague way, and then never mentioned it again after a few vague words. , which made her anxious, so she couldn't wait to run out, wanting to know more.
"All right……"
ε=(´ο｀*)))Alas
"Then let me tell you, but you have to remember that there are many, many ways to extend life, but Horcruxes are definitely the worst. Even if you know, don't try it casually, otherwise , your body and soul may be directly distorted and corroded by magic!"
(^～^;)ゞ
In Anne's opinion, there is nothing inherently evil or not about magic in the world, so she thought it was no big deal to talk about it, so she told her how to make a Horcrux.
In fact, the method of making a Horcrux is very simple. It is nothing more than relying on murder and relying on the dark energy fluctuations generated when depriving other people of life to directly tear apart a part of one's own soul and properly preserve it, and then use it as one's own body. When being killed or dying naturally, the Horcrux will be activated, and then the Horcrux can use the part of the soul saved in advance to rebuild a new body, thereby achieving resurrection, indirectly achieving the ultimate goal of extending life or 'existence' Purpose?
but……
Whether the person who is resurrected by using the torn soul is the same person as the original soul body is still open to question! Anyway, Annie felt that this method was not so much resurrection as it was using her own soul fragments and memories to 'clone' another self. That didn't seem to be called resurrection?
"Anyway, that method is really stupid!"
╮(╯▽╰)╭
"Once your soul is torn apart at will, even if you are reborn, your body will be severely distorted and mutated, and you will no longer be a complete person! This method is better than turning yourself into a witch after your life comes to an end. The demon people are even more stupid. At least although the body of the lich is dead, the soul can still be temporarily preserved intact, and the life span is almost eternal?"
(˶ˇωˇ˶)
The mystery of the soul and the importance of integrity are a more troublesome theory, so Anne did not say more to avoid Irena in front of her asking more questions.
"So that's it..."
"Since Horcruxes are not feasible, teacher, how can we successfully transform into a lich with eternal life?"
Since the Horcrux method was not advisable, Irena naturally asked about the lich transformation method that her teacher Anne had just mentioned.
"Lich..."
(￢д￢.)
Annie is a little impatient...
However, as a last resort, she still had to introduce to the other party relatively briefly some basic information about the skeleton called the lich.
"As for the lich, we have to start with the life box..."
໒(⊙ᴗ⊙)७
"Um……"
(´◔‸◔`)
Anne knows that anyone who becomes a lich must have a phylactery, because the phylactery is an important container for storing the lich's soul and keeping the soul intact. It is crucial to the lich!
Although time has passed, a soul without life will gradually be lost in the long river of time. Life span is not eternity in the true sense... But that is not what she is going to say next, so she just skips it. Not to mention.
Anyway, the bodies of lichs are just 'replacements' that they create at will using magic. As long as the phylactery that preserves the soul is not destroyed, then lichs can be reborn without limit. That's about it.
And if you want to kill a lich, you must first destroy the lich's phylactery!
Although as long as the phylactery can be destroyed, the lich can be eliminated once and for all... However, the guy who can become a lich is not an ordinary mage, and after becoming a lich, with the passage of almost eternity, even a pig can The power gradually increases, so that in some worlds, the lich is one of the most powerful magical creatures. It is basically impossible to easily find the lich's phylactery and destroy it.
Of course, although there are many disadvantages to transforming into a lich, it is still a good choice for most people! But it is a pity that the lich cannot be transformed just because it wants to be transformed. It requires extremely advanced magical knowledge, high enough soul strength, huge energy and a certain transformation ritual, which cannot be done by just a mage. Yes, otherwise some worlds would have been full of lichs long ago, and where would there be room for other beings to live?
"That's probably it..."
(๑‾ꇴ‾๑)
Anne didn't care if Irena knew this knowledge too early, she just picked up what the other party could understand and explained it in as much detail as possible.
"!!"
"Then teacher..."
"How does it feel after transforming into a lich? Is it a magical process? Also, when transforming, can you freeze your body at a certain time when it is most beautiful?"
Listening to her teacher's explanation that attracted her attention, Irena, who was aroused with curiosity and desire for knowledge, began to ask again impatiently.
After all, souls or lichs were novel contents that she had never encountered in any witch's magic books before, and immortality was an endless temptation for any life, even she, a trainee witch, was no exception!
Therefore, she just wants to take this opportunity to learn more.
"..."
₍₍٩(＿＿*)₎₎
The curious baby in front of her was so powerful that she wanted to ask questions about everything, so much so that Anne was already a little overwhelmed.
So, first she glanced at the tree house and found that a certain lazy bear was playing the projection game with a certain Stardust Witch assistant. She sighed and prepared to find a more professional one immediately. A teaching assistant came to help him teach a curious baby well.
"Come out!"
(*￣▽￣)o─═≡※:☆۞
Soon, as Anne waved her hand impatiently, in the distance, as a magic circle lit up and the blue arcane light gradually dissipated, there was only a skeleton left in the body, but the But still wearing a beautiful set of blue wizard robes, with eyes flashing with terrifying soul fire, and with chains and some vicious frost and death and withering energy wrapped around his body, the great lich appeared in the magic circle and Slowly spinning and floating.
"!!"
"that is……"
Seeing the terrifying monster that suddenly appeared, although she knew that it must have been summoned by her teacher, Irena was so frightened that she immediately took out her wand and jumped up from the ground, starting Standing on alert.
Irena didn't need to guess too much to know that the one in front of her must be a very, very scary and vicious monster. And based on the power fluctuations on the opponent's body, it was not difficult to guess that it was probably better than the one that brought her to life in the projection duel before. The witch Fran's assistant who was electrocuted into coke, is there something more terrifying than that hateful guy?
'Well? here it is……'
'Who is calling me? ! '
The terrifying and vicious monster rose into the air and began to look around, and finally locked its sights on Irena, who was on guard with a staff.
"I guess you must have summoned me, right?"
'Hum hum……'
'But it doesn't matter, now, please take your last breath, because your doom has come...'
This vicious monster that had just been summoned inexplicably began to laugh ferociously.
Just now, he was extremely curious when he was anchored by the summoned magic, so he did not resist at that time, but allowed the other party to complete the ritual... But now, when he saw that the person standing in front of him was actually a short-handed man. After standing there nervously guarding the wand, a human girl who was at most the equivalent of a high-level mage, he laughed sinisterly.
Because he felt that this was a different world. Later, he should first ask the other party how to break through the boundary to summon him, find the coordinates to locate the world of Azeroth, and then kill the other party and transform him into a human being. A succubus!
As for the little guy next to the other party who was lying in the grass and flowers with no visible appearance and no magic power fluctuations on his body, he didn't take it to heart at all.
"!!"
"T-Teacher?!"
Hearing what the terrifying and vicious monster said and feeling the surging death energy that began to emanate from the other person's body, Irena was a little frightened, and then subconsciously looked towards her irresponsible teacher, wanting to Knowing that the other party suddenly summoned such a terrifying monster, what was the purpose?
"..."
(￢д￢.)
She had no choice but to see that the monster she summoned actually frightened her apprentice, so Annie had no choice but to sit up reluctantly among the grass and flowers.
"Hello!"
o(*｀ー´)o
"You dare to scare my apprentice, do you want to be beaten?!"
↜(ψ｀▽′)o☄
Then, of course, she just grabbed a small ball of fire and gestured towards the opponent's skeleton without good intentions.
"Who are you……."
Seeing Anne's true face revealed, the terrifying and vicious monster suddenly couldn't help but startled, and then began to stare at Anne's face carefully, as if it always felt vaguely familiar?
"!!"
When he saw clearly the face of the little girl who had risen from the grass, and when he compared his own mixed memories to find out who the other person was, the 'terrible and vicious monster' was frightened on the spot and almost thought To self-destruct and hide his soul in the phylactery.
"ah!"
"It turns out, it's you who is calling me..."
"Excuse me, what's the problem? What can I...little do for you?"
However, when he remembered that he seemed to be summoned to a place far away from Azeroth by breaking the boundary, he reluctantly stopped the crazy idea that he could not help but take action.
"..."
(ಠ╭╮ಠ)
Seeing that the other party was so understanding and immediately landed and lowered his posture, it took a long time for Annie to resist the thought of teaching the other party a lesson or burning him.
"Is such that!"
(ಠ~ಠ)
"Here! You see, this stupid guy is my apprentice. I called you here just to ask you to help guide her in magic. You shouldn't have any objections, right?"
(„ಡωಡ„)
It's best if the other party doesn't have one. If it does, she will just burn the other party and replace it with another one.
Anyway, there are a lot of lichs still alive in the world of Azeroth. It doesn't matter if they don't want to do this job. She believes that there will always be someone who is willing to do it!
"Guide her?"
"ah!"
"Of course there is no problem, there can be no problem! It will be my eternal honor, and I will be very happy to serve you..."
Without even thinking about it, the great lich put away the arrogant attitude and the terrifying death energy that was lingering all over his body. When he landed on the ground, he bowed and prostrated in humility and responded.
"Well!"
₍₍(̨̡‾ᗣ‾)̧̢₎₎
"By the way, what's your name...forget it, I won't ask! Anyway, from today on, you will be her second assistant coach. Now you can introduce yourself to Irena properly!"
o(*¯︶¯*)o
Although she always felt that the other person looked familiar, Annie could no longer remember who the other person was when Tibbers the Bear was not around.
"As you command!"
"As you wish..."
After kneeling down and bowing respectfully, the terrifying and vicious lich stood up straight and looked at Irena, who was still a little dazed and confused about the situation.
"Hello……"
"Let me introduce myself... I am the Arch Lich of Naxxramas, the former Lich Lord of the Plaguelands, the commander of the Dreaded Floating City, the founder and leader of the Cult of the Damned, and the leader of the six-person Kentorui Council. Former member, summoner of Archimonde the Defiler, projector of the Hearthstone world, betrayer of humanity, distributor of plague, and former great steward of the Lich King—Kel'Thuzad!"
"this……"
"Dear Miss Irena, starting from today, Kel'Thuzad will serve you wholeheartedly and will definitely answer all your questions!"
After walking in front of Irena, in Irena's still frightened eyes, the summoned great lich Kel'Thuzad bowed respectfully and saluted her.
If it were somewhere else, the young mage named Irena would definitely be caught by him and tortured severely. Finally, he would torture the other party to death with various vicious spells before transforming the other party. Turn into a powerful banshee and let it work for him... But now he doesn't dare to do that, he doesn't even dare to have an idea. He will only do what he just said and do his best to guide the other party. , until the little girl is satisfied and lets herself go!
"!!"
"T-Teacher! He sounds so powerful. He is actually a lich... But, do I really want him to teach me magic?"
"Isn't that not good?"
After a while, Irena hurriedly returned the gift and put away her wand. After carefully looking up and down at the terrifying and vicious monster in front of her, she looked at an incompetent teacher who was already a little impatient.
"What's wrong?"
♆(⃔｀▽′)⃕↝
"Then do you still want to defeat the Stardust Witch and become an official witch soon?"
(๑վ‸վ๑)
Now, Anne doesn't like a certain first assistant coach who is even more unprofessional than herself, because the other person is even lazier than her, pushing the other person's problems onto herself, which is really unreasonable!
"!!"
"Of course I do!"
Irena dreamed of defeating the Stardust Witch Fran and becoming an official witch as soon as possible and traveling around the world. However, unfortunately, they had fought in private many times, and each time they ended up with her being severely beaten by the other party. It ended with brutal killing. She had hated the Stardust Witch for a long time.
"That's right. Let him teach you. As long as you learn everything he knows, isn't beating that Fran just like playing?"
|ू•ૅω•́)ᵎᵎᵎ
"Really?"
Irena was a little flattered. She didn't expect that in the end, her real teacher would be more reliable.
"Of course!!"
(¬◡¬)✧
"That……"
"Teacher, do we need to pay him?"
Nodding, Irena suddenly thought of another important thing, that is:
The great lich named 'Kel'Thuzad' just now seemed to have many titles, which sounded very powerful... And her mother spent a lot of gold coins to let the Stardust Witch teach her. Now, If you let this great lich teach you, will you have to pay another large amount of money?
"Salary?"
=͟͟͞͞(꒪⌓꒪*)
"Hey! Lich! Do you need to get paid?"
(〃°ω°〃)♡
Anne looked at the lich that had become obedient with some evil intentions, and asked cutely.
The reason why she summoned the lich was not only to let the lich answer the questions that Irena just asked, but also to find a free helper who did not need to eat, drink, sleep or get paid. If the other party needed a salary, that would be That's another story.
Anyway, it’s too troublesome to ask for wages, so... she now wants to listen to the other party’s opinion. If the wages the other party really wants or the request is too troublesome, then she will just burn it. Is it better to replace the opponent with another lich?
"!!"
"No need! Really no need! It will be an endless honor for Kel'Thuzad to serve you, so why do you dare to ask for compensation?"
It wasn't that Kel'Thuzad didn't want it, but he didn't dare to ask for it... So, he hurriedly waved to the little girl, saying that he didn't need any reward at all, and the other party just treated him as a tool!
"Look! Irena, you heard it too, right?"
Hahahaꉂꉂ(ᵔᗜᵔ*)
"He really doesn't want wages! So, this matter has been decided!"
٩(•̤̀ᵕ•̤́๑)ᵒᵏᵎᵎᵎᵎ
"Now you guys should get to know each other better first. You can decide between yourselves what you want to learn or what you want to teach. I'm going to play in the forest first. Goodbye~!"
-=͟͟͞͞=͟͟͞͞ᕕ(ᐛ)ᕗ
After solving a big trouble, Annie, who was already impatient, ran away without even returning to the tree house to look for a certain bad bear who was fighting a certain witch.
