Chapter 139 I Have Something to Say
"What?"
The two servants were instantly torn to shreds, and just as the swords were about to strike the archmage Atarik, the old man immediately knelt down and shouted.
He was still afraid of dying...
“I know the secrets of Dalaran. I can pledge my allegiance to you; I will serve you as my master. As long as you don't kill me, I'll do anything…”
Atalik is about to cry...
He was unaware that Lorraine ahead of him could communicate fluently with him in the common language of humans... and at that moment he overlooked these details.
He looked up at the necromancer Lorraine, who was ragged and emaciated, except for his strange eyes.
The enemy leader was surprisingly unremarkable, looking no different from an ordinary zombie.
If Lorraine hadn't been surrounded by death knights, Atalik wouldn't have believed that this guy, dressed in tattered clothes and looking worse than a beggar, was actually the enemy leader who had slaughtered Ambermill...
"Perhaps this is a disguise... the undead are indeed cunning..."
The undead are naturally not supposed to be handsome, but Lorraine found himself to be quite a handsome man among them. His body was intact, and thanks to the nourishment of necromantic power, the contours of his muscles remained...
He looked rather pale and bony...
He was covered in dirt because he had been through so much; his clothes were torn and stained. On the battlefield, such external things didn't matter.
It's a subtle strategy that the other party can't find you based on your handsome appearance.
Even so, Lorraine was almost beheaded by Invar and the one-armed assassin... which is enough to illustrate the dangers of the battlefield... It's a life-or-death struggle, and in a one-person battlefield, you have to be even more careful to preserve your strength and deal with crises.
Fortunately, I have a detection radar inside my body and a strategist to advise me. In addition, I am cautious and clever, so nothing you say today will make a difference!
Lorraine's lips curled into a smirk, and the controlled death knight beside him swiftly brought down his blade...
Archmage Atal'ik wanted to say something more, but without his magical powers, he was forever frozen in that moment of kneeling and begging for mercy...
Atalik is dead, and Lorraine senses his resentment intensifying in the moment of his death...
"It's you I want!"
He absorbed Atal'ak's soul without hesitation... truly a high-quality vengeful spirit. Having done all this, Lorraine looked around; this was the territory I had conquered!
Last time, he helped the Gravedigger conquer Fenice Island; this time, he personally led his summoned army of skeleton knights to conquer Ambermill Manor alone...
It's impossible not to be excited, but it's not entirely unpleasant either.
Although it took a long time, the plan was meticulous and the implementation was appropriate.
However, various changes and accidents occurred along the way.
He even nearly died...
But I, Lorraine, had the last laugh! Including Shadowfang Keep and the previous Agamand family tombs... through my own and my teammates' cooperation, we found the teacher's eye...
I've learned so many spells...
Most importantly, he also awakened new necromancy and upgraded his rune right eye.
While this trip to Ambermill was just a small battle for the Horde or Undercity, it was a major step for Lorraine to become a powerful fighter for the Horde.
Military merit and wealth beckoned to him; glory and status were within his grasp...
Becoming a mage truly brings the thrill of being revered by thousands... the exhilarating feeling of wielding life and death. No longer a servant, no longer subservient...
"Wait a minute, necromancer. You're in big trouble!"
Just as Lorraine was feeling carefree and smug... the cat's voice came again!
"Hmm? The enemy hasn't been completely wiped out yet!"
The death knights, who had been standing still, all picked up their weapons again and looked around...
"Don't bother looking anymore, I'm already gone. But necromancer, you're really in trouble. I've already put you on the Violet Eye's wanted list! Because you possess the power to destroy order. Your army of the dead is unrestrained by any force, and I have reason to believe that you will wreak havoc on humanity and bring disaster to humankind..."
I've confirmed that the scary cat isn't nearby, but I can still hear her talking...
The implication is that Lorraine is wanted by the police...
"The Violet Eye?"
"Catch me?"
"Dalaran? Haha! Haha..."
Lorraine burst into laughter... He was going to Dalaran anyway, and although it might be extremely dangerous inside, he wouldn't be foolish enough to charge straight in... However, the Forsaken, or rather the undead, are indeed enemies of Dalaran.
So whether or not a warrant is issued seems quite normal...
Dalaran was rebuilt several times in the past, the third of which was when Arthas led the undead to invade, and many Kirin Tor mages died in battle. The undead and humans were inherently opposed to each other.
"why are you laughing?"
“I’m not joking with you. You killed a member of our Violet Council. Archmage Atal’ar was a full citizen of Dalaran, and his mentors and friends are all prominent figures within Dalaran. You are openly making an enemy of Dalaran.”
"You're different from ordinary undead; we'll take extra care of you!"
Lorraine laughed even harder upon hearing this...
"Haha, this is war, little kitty... a war where it's a matter of life and death, especially since you provoked us first... If you hadn't run fast, you would be in the same situation now."
The cat scoffed, saying sarcastically, "I didn't run away. My job is to oversee everything here. Can you find me?"
.......
After a brief silence, Lorraine replied, "You're quite capable, I acknowledge your strength... but we're not mice, what exactly do you, a little female cat, want?"
“It’s nothing. I’m just warning you not to go near Dalaran. Atalik’s death was his own fault. This war was his personal act and has nothing to do with Dalaran… Humans and undead are inherently enemies. I think you’d better leave as soon as possible.”
"So you were trying to threaten me? This battle isn't my personal intention, nor is it a battle of the Forsaken. A war between the Alliance and the Horde is inevitable... Unless you cede all the territory around Lake Lordamere, perhaps I can report to the Queen and see if she'll show you any mercy..."
........
The cat seemed to be genuinely considering the conditions Lorraine had offered after hearing Lorraine's teasing...
However, the magical cat immediately said solemnly, "How many years has Dalaran prospered here? It has been rebuilt three times; it is a magical capital. Undercity is merely a place where the undead hide. We do not want to get involved in the conflict, because there are greater dangers and responsibilities waiting for us."
“I hope that your Queen Sylvanas’s eyes are not filled with hatred, and even if there is hatred, it is directed at the Lich King and their masters. Kel'Thuzad is also our enemy; he is a sinner of Dalaran.”
"No, he is not only a disgrace to Dalaran, but also the culprit behind the countless deaths of humans in the Kingdom of Lordaeron. He is also a necromancer. So I advise you, if you don't want to be wiped out, don't go near Dalaran or human territory."
"otherwise..."
Lorraine was annoyed by being threatened; the master and apprentice had already suffered enough.
Just when I was finally having a good time, this cat came to cause trouble again!
"Otherwise what? You're not going to eat me, are you...?"
"Pshaw, we're not from Xiamen University..."
......
"Wash your neck and wait for me in Dalaran. We're coming to Dalaran!"
