Facing the sharp blade fan thrown by Maiev, Illidan had no intention of retreating. The evil energy in his body burst out instantly under his will.
Illidan's speed also increased again at this moment, and his figure even exceeded the limit that Maiev could capture. His whole figure was walking through the fan of knives like a ghost.
The sounds of sharp blades colliding and rotating continued to sound, and countless sharp blades were knocked away, cut off, and scattered on the ground by Azzinoth.
The green light and shadow had merged with the humid air on the coast, leaving behind circles of green tail marks. Maiev instinctively raised the ring blade, but was knocked away by Peiran's huge force.
The warden twisted her body in mid-air and landed firmly on the soft beach, but just as she landed, Illidan's next attack struck again.
Maiev gritted her teeth, and Illidan pressed forward step by step, making it difficult for her to use flicker to dodge the attack. This guy was so cunning that he even gave up on magic attacks with preparation time, and kept using hand-to-hand combat so that he could not fight back.
After Illidan absorbed the energy of the Skull of Gul'dan, his strength was beyond Maiev's ability to balance, and most of the Watcher troops who could help her were injured in the explosion just now.
Letting them come up now is just letting the Watchers die in vain.
As her mind raced, Maiev reluctantly resisted Illidan's storm-like attack. Every time her crescent-like double blades danced, they were slashing towards the fatal position.
Seeing her mistress gradually entering an extremely dangerous situation under Illidan's offensive, Nasa struggled to get up from the ground, but she also understood that they were only going up now to distract Maiev and cause trouble for her.
Finally, Azzinoth's double blades separated Maiev's ring blade, and the sharp war blade slashed directly towards Maiev's throat.
Even though the Watchers' armor protected almost every vital point on their bodies, these armors did not have much protection against Azzinoth.
As long as this knife falls, there is no doubt that Maiev's armor will be cut open, and her fragile throat will be cut directly by the war blade.
At the critical moment, Maiev gave up the idea of evading backwards. Her body leaned forward strangely, as if she was facing Illidan's war blade and sending her vitals over.
Why Maiev made such an action, Illidan didn't know, but just when the war blade was about to cut Maiev's throat, Illidan suddenly felt a powerful magic bursting behind him.
This even exceeded the limit of his reaction. Several vines as thick as forearms suddenly shot up from the ground and wrapped around Illidan's arm where he wielded the war blade. Maiev's ring blade took the opportunity to rise up. .
"Ding! Click!"
The sound of two weapons colliding together was heard. Illidan blocked Maiev's attack with his other hand that was not trapped. The edge of Azzinoth stuck the ring blade tightly. The difference in strength made Maiev could go no further.
"Stop, my brother! It's too late to turn back now!" Malfurion's shout echoed behind Illidan. The archdruid manipulated the vines as thick as an arm and tightly wrapped around Illidan's body. arm.
The vines were still growing under the nourishment of magic power. They climbed up from Illidan's arms and wrapped around his shoulders and waist, trying to prevent Illidan from exerting his strength.
The muscles strengthened by the evil energy were like steel, stubbornly resisting the contraction of the vines. Maiev's sword, which was pressing forward with all her strength, was still resisted by Illidan.
"There are seeds hidden in the handles of those flying sharp blades?"
Only then did Illidan think clearly about the cause and effect. After all, on the soft beach, if the druid wanted to activate the vines so quickly, he must have suitable casting materials.
"That itself is a living tree blessed by Druid magic. I gave the Archdruid a message before I chased you - capture it without mercy, Illidan."
Maiev touched the ground with her left foot, rose into the air, and kicked Illidan's blade. She used the force of the shock to escape from Illidan's side.
Illidan was neither angry nor frustrated, he still looked at Maiev calmly, "Well, Watcher, you are indeed an experienced hunter, and my brother, you always show up, so timely. "
"Illidan, you don't have to do this. Come back with me. I might be able to use the power of the forest to expel the corrosion from you!"
Malfurion has not given up trying to persuade his brother to change his mind. Although Illidan has committed many unforgivable crimes in the eyes of others, he still believes from the bottom of his heart that his brother is controlled and bewitched by demons.
Unexpectedly, after hearing Malfurion's dissuasion, Illidan suddenly laughed deeply, and then the laughter became louder and louder. He said in a sarcastic tone, "Come on, Malfurion, the power of the forest." Can it expel the corruption of evil energy? Look at what your precious forest has become after being corrupted by evil spirits!
You are a complete idiot. The power of nature cannot save us at all. It will only weaken your will and prevent you from fighting powerful enemies. "
At the end of his words, Illidan's voice became rougher and rougher. Something seemed to be awakening in his body. Malfurion, who was still at ease at first, suddenly felt great pressure.
Under the gaze of everyone, Illidan's body, which was already much taller than the elves, began to expand even more. His already ridiculously strong muscles continued to grow, and the black mist lingering with evil energy began to gradually wrap around his body.
"You don't know anything at all, and the Druid way you follow is just a complete joke in front of the legion!
Malfurion, come on, face my wrath, and let me tell you how worthless the faith and power you uphold are! "
Accompanied by roars one after another, Illidan seemed like a ignited explosive barrel. A steady stream of green flames ignited on his body that was completely shrouded in black mist. He had completely lost all the characteristics of the elf and turned into an elf. A personification of fear.
The dark demon opened his eyes burning with dark green evil energy. The vibrant vines were torn off easily like noodles, and the evil flames rising around Illidan instantly burned them to ashes.
"Damn it, Illidan, you are completely hopeless!" Maiev was shocked and angry. She didn't expect that Illidan still had reservations, but this made him seem to have completely turned into a demon.
"Hopeless? Maiev, you are wrong, I am very fine!"
The moment the last syllable was spoken, Maiev also disappeared from the place. She suddenly appeared above Illidan's head. The heroic watcher swung his sharp blade and slashed down from the air like a meteor.
"boom!"
What struck Maiev back was not the Blade of Azzinoth or the fel spell, but just a huge hand. The Warden didn't even react before the demon hunter grabbed his throat.
The weapon in Maiev's hand suddenly fell to the ground, and she hit Illidan's arm with some difficulty. At this moment, she felt the gap in absolute power.
"Goodbye, Watcher!"
The magic pattern on Illidan's arm lit up, and the terrifying evil energy was gathering on his arm. With just a blink of an eye, the struggling watcher in his hand would turn into ashes burned by the evil energy.
"Stop!" Malfurion saw this and no longer held back. He used all his strength to activate the seeds that Maiev had buried on the beach.
This is not a forest, and his power cannot be used to its maximum extent, but with the help of these seeds, he should be able to drag...
The blazing ring of evil flames responded to Malfurion. Before his spell could be fully deployed, he was burned out by Illidan's evil flames. All he did was flap his wings lightly.
Illidan turned around sharply. He was ready to show Maiev's painful struggle in front of Malfurion and see what his brother's expression would be.
But the moment he turned around, his whole body froze.
He saw a familiar and graceful figure standing behind Malfurion, his bright eyes full of disbelief and shock.
"Ty...Rand."
"I thought it was just someone else's exaggerated description, but... Illidan..." The Priestess of the Moon Goddess lowered her head, as if she didn't want to see Illidan's ferocious demonic appearance.
Illidan saw Tyrande's performance and didn't know what he was thinking, but he loosened his grip on Maiev's neck and threw the watcher away.
Upon seeing this, Malfurion quickly used druid magic to catch Maiev and transfer her away from Illidan.
The black mist on his body also faded away at this moment, and Illidan returned to his half-elf, half-demon appearance.
"Cough...cough!" Maiev struggled to prop up her body and breathed heavily. The watchers on the side rushed to Maiev's side and helped their mistress up.
Illidan waved his hands, and the Blade of Azzinoth stuck in the ground flew into his hands. The demon hunter said nothing, just vibrated his wings, and his figure turned into arrows soaring into the sky, disappearing among the elves. in front of my eyes.
Malfurion frowned and stared at the direction Illidan left, felt it carefully, and then slowly said, "He... left."
Tyrande just nodded and said nothing else. She touched Ashara's head. The colors in her eyes were very complicated. Was it disappointment for her friends or regret for her relatives?
No one knows, but the priestess must be sad in her heart, because another close friend in the past has chosen a path that is destined to have no chance of turning back.
"Arch Druid... we... shouldn't let Illidan leave, he will bring more suffering to this world!" Maiev, with the support of Nasa, came to Malfurion and Tyrande side.
"We can't keep him," Malfurion shook his head. "My brother's power has exceeded our imagination. If we want to truly stop him, we must be fully prepared."
Maiev was silent for a while, because Malfurion did get to the point. She had indeed ignored Illidan's growth in strength before, and was still thinking of using the method of hunting down prisoners to deal with him.
"Where did he go? The area east of Azshara should have been swallowed up by the endless sea." Tyrande suddenly asked.
Malfurion replied, "I don't know, but he did fly to the east. If he goes further east, the spirit of nature will not be able to give me the answer."
"I will continue to complete my mission and capture him back in prison. The sacrifices made by the watchers and elf soldiers cannot be in vain." Maiev said angrily.
"Wait a minute, Warden Shadowsong, your injuries are serious." Malfurion used magic to temporarily suppress Maiev's pain, and then asked, "What's going on with that temple over there? ?”
"I don't know, but I'm afraid Illidan seduced my people in turn and let us walk into the trap he set." Maiev looked at the temple where the evil light beam was gradually disappearing, and she was also a little confused.
"This... mistress, our people have never lost sight of Illidan. He has never left our sight. There should be no chance to set a trap." Nasa's words made Maiev's guess impossible. thing.
After a brief silence, Malfurion and Maiev suddenly said in unison, "Unless he has other helpers."
"This is not good news. For more than ten thousand years, I have never figured out what my brother does. He always does things that I don't expect."
Malfurion touched his beard and couldn't figure out when Illidan, who had been imprisoned for ten thousand years, found help.
"However, let's go back to the tribe first. After everyone has settled down, we can discuss Illidan's affairs. Maiev, your injury also needs time to recover."
Maiev sighed, knowing that chasing him now was unrealistic, "Okay, Archdruid."
…
On a small island dozens of kilometers away from the coast of Azshara, Illidan landed from the sky. He took a long breath and seemed to be worried.
"Lord Illidan, we have been waiting for you for a long time."
Voices suddenly came from the empty coast, but Illidan was not surprised at all.
"It looks like she's agreed to our cooperation again."
"Yes, respected Lord Illidan, I am Her Majesty the Queen's maid. You can call me, Vashj."
Naga with a snake body and a human face, with six arms, walked out of the sea. She bowed respectfully to Illidan, "There were some troublesome characters among the night elves just now. We can actually help you get rid of them." entangled."
"There is no need, Vashchi. They will retreat now. I know my brother very well. He will not cause unnecessary trouble. However, that Shadowsinger woman... forget it, if she Come and deal with her."
Illidan thought about the Watchers who were already paranoid about pursuing him. Maiev couldn't cause much hindrance to him, but it was indeed a big trouble.
"These questions are not important. We have to leave Kalimdor quickly. You should have seen the signal I sent before. Are you ready? I don't have much time."
"Of course, Lord Illidan, we can leave at any time."
