Chapter 137 The Violet Order
Before Lorraine could answer, the nearest Dark Knight, Yurev, had already drawn his sword and attacked. This silent former Scarlet Paladin... a common soldier of Lordaeron who had died twice, unleashed a powerful killing intent...
Perhaps the vengeful spirit was of a very high level, as summoning Yurev required 100 vengeful spirits from Lorraine...
His entire body was as black as ink, a true messenger of the night...
If it weren't for the cold glint of the sword, Lorraine would have momentarily lost sight of Yurev's target. Yurev's attack speed was incredibly fast; even a top assassin like Invar had his arm severed without warning.
The black-striped gray cat, with its small body, looked like it was about to be decapitated...
To everyone's surprise, after Yurev's Black Light Shadowless Sword struck down, the cat easily dodged it.
Lorraine saw a flash of light; the cat seemed to be able to teleport, somewhat like his own teleportation ability. Upon closer inspection, however, there seemed to be some differences.
Its silhouette seems to be nothing more than an illusion...
This is an illusion!
Yurev missed again, and the cat dodged and weaved under the Death Knight's successive attacks of swords, spears, axes, and claws.
The Death Knight summoned by Lorraine was completely outmaneuvered, its movements shifting between illusion and reality.
Wow, this cat is amazing...
"The real challenge is yet to come! Necromancer, it's my turn to attack."
The cat speaks human language...
Very polite, even when retaliating, he had to remind Lorraine.
However, after the cat declared war, it vanished... Lorraine cautiously looked around, sensing the cat's magical aura...
"Invisibility?"
"It seems...this cat is at least at the level of an archmage, and is proficient in arcane spatial magic...Don't underestimate these animals. Like Kel'Thuzad's kittens, Stormwind's guardian hound Krihito, Darkmoon Rabbits, Thunder Snails, and self-destructing sheep...they're all incredibly powerful! Don't underestimate them."
The teacher's reminder, though late, was timely...
However, for now, it seems that this cat is Ambermill's last enemy.
Once it was dealt with, Ambermill took it.
The cat's attack seemed invisible; in the darkness, Lorraine vaguely saw several transparent panes of glass pressing down on her... The death knight beside her charged forward on his skeletal warhorse, followed by a series of muffled thuds...
These heavily armored cavalrymen seemed to have crashed into an invisible wall; Lorraine carefully observed that there was indeed a crystal-like transparent barrier directly in front of them...
However, this crystal wall can only temporarily hold off the undead army for a short while... what kind of killing move is that?
It's too late to say, then soon!
Just as Lorraine was wondering what was going on, she saw several transparent crystal walls of air fall from nowhere, layer upon layer... The three skeleton knights charging in front of her, along with the werewolf death knight at the head, were all sliced into pieces...
Over a hundred heavily armored skeleton knights, along with the death knights he had summoned using dozens of vengeful spirits, were killed in a single blow...
If Death's Oath, along with the Lich Knight and the other four, hadn't simultaneously activated their Bone Shield skill, blocking the transparent crystal wall falling from above, Lorraine would likely have been wiped out in one fell swoop!
This! This cat?
That's terrifying...
The undead army suffered a setback, shocking Lorraine and Archmage Atarik... He had heard that the surveillance within the Eye of Violet was powerful... but he hadn't expected it to be this powerful.
Why hasn't this cat lost its magic?
Because she utterly disdained to eat Ambermill's food. The water she drank was high-grade magical spring water extracted from the essence of water... It was at this moment that Archmage Atal'ik realized the difference between himself and this strange archmage who appeared as a cat...
Also a member of the Violet Council, the Violet Eye belongs to a special organization.
Since Dalaran's two destructions and reconstructions, the Kirin Tor realized that magical power should not be abused... All research must be kept within certain limits, especially the research and use of necromancy, abyssal magic, and even forbidden magic involving time and space.
Those capable of wielding the magical powers of time and space are generally automatically recruited into the Violet Eye. They are subject to oversight and are also members of Dalaran's true magical forces...
Many of the prisoners in Violet Hold in Dalaran were captured by members of the Violet Eye...
It even includes the Blue Dragonflight's blue dragons, void demons, necromancers, and more...
The cats were very familiar with Lorraine's identity; they had fought against the Scourge, the Cult of the Damned, and the Shadow Council's necromancers, demon warlocks, and shadow priests on numerous occasions...
During the second invasion by the evil orcs, a legend circulated among the squads hunting down and counterattacking the orcs and demons...
"Things have taken a turn for the better! I never expected this beast that came to supervise me to be so powerful!"
Archmage Atalik saw a glimmer of hope for survival once again... He had experienced countless moments of despair and disappointment today... Human emotions can make people vulnerable, and his former status could not make this magnificent human fire mage strong.
Although I was annoyed and resentful of this strange purple-blue eye mascot!
Archmage Atarik cried out, "Long live Dalaran! Inspector, quickly destroy those damned undead!"
The cat slowly appeared after he called out, and nestled back into the Dalaran scribe's arms...
"No, I refuse. Dalaran will not participate in the conflicts between the Horde and the Alliance, nor will it intervene in wars."
“Clerk! Inspector! No, they are attacking the citizens of Dalaran! And I represent the Violet Council! Look at these human citizens of Dalaran! We must avenge them!”
.......
The cat still hadn't transformed into human form; the magic it had just used seemed to have consumed a huge amount of energy.
A transparent wall of light blades, hidden in the night, led to a successful sneak attack.
They wiped out a third of Lorraine's men, and left a death knight critically wounded...
The dismembered skeletons were reduced to shattered remains, and the werewolf death knight's skeletal warhorse was broken into several pieces...
Eleven death knights, who were essentially one with their horses, suffered a loss of combat power when their horses were injured...
Although Lorraine didn't know the underlying principle, the faint aura of the wounded Death Knight indicated that he was about to completely dissipate...
The werewolf vengeful spirit used to summon him automatically returned to his runic right eye... but the vengeful spirit he had consumed completely vanished.
A loss has occurred.
Lorraine wasn't too bothered by the deaths of many skeleton riders and zombies.
But this cat killed so many undead minions with a single blow, which is quite impressive.
If all the mages in Dalaran are this skilled, then the upcoming plans and battles will likely be more difficult than anticipated...
Lorraine was in a bind, while Atalik was on the verge of collapse...
"Dalaran has abandoned you, Atal'ik. Your actions have brought Dalaran into conflict with enemies it shouldn't have. The Speaker has said that if your plan fails and the attack fails, you will bear all the responsibility..."
The cat stroked its whiskers and shook its head...
"No, impossible! No way, the Speaker wouldn't do that! No..."
After a blinding flash of light, Lorraine discovered that the terrifying cat, along with the scribe who was hugging him, had vanished in an instant...
Atalik was left staring blankly at the massive purple magical barrier in the distance of Dalaran...
