Oster recited the spell silently, and the shadow energy surged around him. Immediately, the body edged into afterimages, and it rushed towards Serena who was unable to move on the table;
At first, the horrified Serena found that this spell did not cause her physical injury, and she was a little happy. But within a few seconds, every cell and nerve in her body was burning and crackling like fire;
[Soul Burning, Spell Level 4, Type Shadow, Restraining Humanoid. 】
The indescribable pain caused Serena to let out a deafening scream, scratching her neck desperately and starting to harm herself. She felt like she was dying tens of thousands of times every second, praying that it would be better to be cut into pieces than endure this pain.
"Ahhhh! It hurts so much, please help me!——"
The screams were heard far away, and the soldiers standing guard outside the door frequently looked inside, tutting and shaking their heads.
Inside the room, Oster stopped casting spells for a moment and asked, "Have you considered it, or should you not say it?"
"...This, this is shadow magic. As a high-ranking priest, how can you use the moves of the Dread Lord!"
Of course Auster understands the effect of this spell. This is the first offensive spell he has experienced since time travel; thanks to the gift of Nasrezim agent and oil-grabbing maniac Solarius, he will never forget it in his life. No.
"Nonsense, who do you think I am? Didn't you call me a devil first? You don't think I'm a fake, do you? Hold on, the next round is about to begin."
"S-stop, ah, ah, ah! -"
Serena didn't have the blessing of Sashu to break free from the spell. Soon, her soul was deeply burned and she turned into a dead fish state, her purple eyes were wide open, her mouth opened and closed without making a sound, tears, snot and saliva dripped down her cheeks;
Whatever Auster asked, she said. Finally, Oster asked for the key information.
It turns out that the curse code actually dates back to World War I. Medivh, who was still on the side of the Burning Revolutionary Army at that time, removed the rune stone from his right foot that represented the skill in the Sasha book and gave it to Gul'dan, the chief scientist of the Orc Rebel Army. The analysis is completed.
Therefore, it is essentially part of the leader's relics and contains quite powerful ancient energy. At the end of World War II, the original cursed code was stolen by traitors from the Engineering Bureau, resulting in a large number of death knights and the ultimate failure of the Orc uprising.
After the war, the Orc traitor who stole the code carried one of the fragments, Steinberg, and fled to Northrend in the north, trying to claim credit and seek asylum from the Titans. He was caught up and killed by Legion agents in the Howling Fjord. But before the traitor died, he released the vicious curse in the code, making the undead haunting his tomb and making it difficult to approach. . Coupled with the intensity of the war, the Northern Expedition began soon, and the Alliance established a landing point in the fjord. The fragment was difficult to recover, and its whereabouts are unknown.
The other two fragments were hidden in secret places by the traitors, and one of them, Ashea, was found by the guardian Medivh. Later, with his final rebellion, this fragment was given to the former High Lord of the Western Frontier, Ilulon Tubule, as a high lord's sacred object.
All the great lords at the level of the temple were given a leader's relic by the Pope, which was the rune stone that was supposed to be embedded in the empty slots on the giant's torso and limbs in the Sacred Book. Not only are they used for separate guarding, these legendary treasures containing ancient magic also give the watchers powerful powers.
For example, Oster's current ability to detect and copy spells basically comes from the left-hand rune stone "Spellcaster" held by Bolvar Fordragon. He was defeated and captured in the Battle of the Wrath Gate. Prince Arthas, who seized the relic, hurriedly delivered it to the agent team in the south.
The great lord of the western border, Ilulon Tubuli, soon discovered that compared with other lords, the relic he got was incomplete, only one-third of the right-foot relic "Skilled One". Therefore, his power is weaker than other lords. In this era where strength determines everything, he went to the north personally to find the fragment Steinberg after many inquiries. But in the end he was unable to resist the curse of the password and died in the exploding tomb. His position and the Shard of Ashea he held were inherited by Gryan Strowman.
And now Steinberg appears here, proving that someone has already found a way to break the curse of the tomb. As one of the three fragments, it contains the power to break magic and was made into this big gun. Now it was sent to Oster by the holder. It really took no effort...well, it still took a lot of effort.
Although it is only one-third, with the ability to turn on the immune magic shield, the combat effectiveness of the harvest puppet can be increased by more than one level.
After mercilessly continuing to torture Selina with mental spells, Oster learned that to activate the harvest puppet, he needed to activate the code and start the control program; and what created this code entity was a high conductivity that contained a large amount of source energy. The sexual material is hidden among the cursed code fragments. Oster was no longer sleepy after hearing this. Couldn't this kind of thing be used to charge Sashu? If there is no battery, we can make it ourselves.
Auster took Serena's big gun, cut it apart in the factory, took out the inner core, scanned it, and was about to synthesize the physical key to unlock the code, but the Sa book showed;
[Error, this is a replica. The system is incompatible and requires skilled user permissions. 】
Auster was shocked. He had known that the epic item would not be dropped so easily. It turned out to be a fake. As for the skill user's authority, he already knew that it was the ability brought by the relic of Sa Shu's right foot;
The problem now is that without the permission of the right foot, the code cannot be activated, and this code is exactly one-third of the relic of the right foot.
This question of which came first, the chicken or the egg, makes Oster's screams unresponsive and unresponsive. I have been busy co-authoring, but my time has been wasted.
Fortunately, it is not completely fruitless. The spell-breaking gun that replicates Steinberg's ability is still Defias' top technology. Relying on reverse engineering, the workshop quickly copied a batch of French hunting rifles. Auster gave the best one to sharpshooter Pullman as a commendation for his previous bravery.
The remaining question was how to activate the puppet's control system. Oster locked himself in the workshop for several days and tried various methods to crack the code. It suddenly occurred to him that Sa had repeatedly reminded him of this.
Auster had previously deduced that the coordinated action of the elite troops of the Kingdom and the Church might be an order from the Stormwind City ruling group.
The intelligence returned by the informant confirmed this. A few months ago, a big shot from Stormwind City came to Sentinel Ridge and urged Marshal Grian Stroman, the highest official of the Western Frontier State, to stabilize the situation in the west as soon as possible. The generalissimo, who had always been able to play both sides, and whose priority was to preserve his strength and not offend all forces, finally could not withstand the pressure after procrastinating for so long and began to send troops to suppress the rebels. Black Mountain County, not far from Sentinel Ridge, was the area where the rebels were most active, so it was the first to be killed as a warning to the monkeys.
To Oster's great surprise, the so-called informant turned out to be Marisa, who was only 9 years old. No wonder I haven't seen this follower lately.
