Journey to Azeroth

Chapter 139 The Cave of Death.

"Open the door and stop talking nonsense," Carol shouted anxiously at the end of the line. The small space made him feel very insecure.

"You don't need to remind," Cowley took out a set of lockpicking tools commonly used by thieves, and fiddled with the lock body a few times, but the wooden door remained intact.

Cowley knocked on the wooden door, stared at the keyhole carefully, and said a little depressed: "This is a composite lock."

"There is a layer of magic bondage on the door lock, and the lock can only be unlocked after the magic bondage is resolved."

"Release the magic," Cowley hadn't finished speaking, Carl's spell had already shrouded the door lock, and after a faint magic glow flickered, the magic restraint disappeared.

The dwarf Cowley fiddled with the keyhole a couple of times, and the wooden door swung open with a faint click.

"careful!"

A roar came from the end of the line. Carol roared, grabbed Carl's shoulders, and forcibly pulled the opponent's head down.

At the same time, a rough crossbow bolt passed through the position where Karl's head was a second ago, and penetrated deeply into the ceiling.

"Damn it!" Black took out a dwarf throwing ax and threw it fiercely into the darkness.

Karl reacted quickly, scrambling and hiding behind the wooden door, and began to cast spells. The team lacked long-range ability in the eyes of the team, except for Karl, who didn't even have a decent archer.

"Pyroblast!"

A fireball of condensed flames floated beside Karl. Karl turned around and threw the fireball through the gap in the wooden door. A loud bang resounded through the entire passage, followed by a violent explosion. Karl kept praying in his heart, hoping that the castle would survive. The tunnel is strong enough, otherwise this spell will not only destroy the opponent, but also destroy the entire squad.

"Skeleton archers, there are 9 in total, 7 died, and there are two more." Just as Cowley was counting the opponent's losses.

Black and Leah had already rushed in holding their shields, and with the appearance of the purification spell, the other two skeleton archers were also purified.

"I really envy your dark vision, uh, Carol, you should be lighter," Carl sighed with lingering fear.

The storage room of the castle is quite large, with a few wooden tables scattered around in the front half, and all kinds of miscellaneous sundries in the back half.

Under the baptism of time, these sundries have condensed into one lump and have become an unrecognizable mass.

There was a stench from the debris, and Cowley pinched his nose to check the corpse of the skeleton archer, "Bowling arrows, standard equipment for human guards."

"My God! Look what I found, there is a cave here," he suddenly sent a cave near the weapon rack in the corner, which was nearly 2 meters high.

"Let's go in, I really can't bear the smell here," Liya complained while covering her nose, and then drilled along the entrance of the cave.

After entering the cave, everyone found more and more strange-looking natural disaster creatures.

Scourge creatures are not so much creatures as they are under the influence of the power of death. There are no completely dead bodies. Although they have different shapes, their essence is the same. The soul fire that condenses the will in the brain is not coordinated enough. Bones, rotting flesh, all Scourge creatures have this in common.

As everyone went deeper into the cave, the power of death became stronger, and more and more dead creatures appeared in front of the cave, such as undead animals, flesh and blood puppets, and death constructs.

The progress of the crowd was very slow, because they had to deal with all kinds of harassment, such as the long-range harassment of skeleton archers, the occasional magic traps on the ground, and even a carrion cockroach did not dare to be careless.

These nasty little things will explode violently after being attacked, causing damage to enemies within a three-meter range.

Over an hour later, the dead creature left behind dozens of corpses, but also slowed the procession to appalling levels.

During this time, they traveled less than 50 meters.

"Damn! You bastards who have changed to hell, you have the ability to come out and fight me one-on-one!!" Carol roared and raised his warhammer. He answered him with more than a dozen arrows, and he could only dodge by rolling and crawling. Get behind cover.

And Karl aimed at a skeleton archer hidden behind.

"Multiple enhanced arcane lightning!"

Two bolts of purple lightning penetrated a distance of more than ten meters, interweaving a grid behind the enemies, covering these insidious enemies hiding behind within the range of the spell, causing terrifying damage.

"Where does this road lead to?" Carl hid behind the rock bunker and asked the ghost girl in a low voice.

"Looking in the direction should be the side of the magic laboratory," the girl replied.

"Magic laboratory?"

"Yes, you know, Lord Midas is a mage, so there should be no problem walking this way."

Carl nodded.

After another hour, everyone finally cleaned up all the undead creatures in the cave. Fortunately, no one was injured, but it was very expensive.

Carl's mana was consumed by nearly half, Black and Carol's throwing axes were all used up, and the bolts of Cowley's crossbow were damaged by frequent winding and overheating, and there were not many bolts left.

Leah had nothing to lose, she didn't have long-range weapons.

Everyone continued to move forward along the quiet and mysterious sewer. In the eyes of the water in the tunnel, the ground was almost muddy. Fortunately, it was still smooth.

The tunnel continued to extend forward, the cave began to widen, and soon turned into a cave with a width of more than 4 meters and a height of more than 5 meters. Leah squinted her eyes as if she had discovered something. , said in a low voice, "There is a strong force of death ahead!"

"Very strong!"

"It's a strange building!" Black said softly, looking ahead.

"Yes, a strange tower-like building, surrounded by sharp spikes, and a dim light flickers on the top of the tower."

"Light Art!"

The ball of light flew out of Karl's finger, and slowly floated forward.

Soon, Carl saw the face of the building in front of him clearly.

The psychic tower!This is a unique building of the Scourge. Its main function is to collect and store the power of death. Many newborn Scourge creatures will be put into the psychic tower by their creators. The power of death will gradually transform and strengthen their bodies, making them From a weak skeleton to a fearful Scourge.

"Be careful, there should be something inside!" Carl whispered to his teammates around him.

As if to confirm his words, the sound of heavy footsteps suddenly came from the Spiritual Tower, and then, a terrible roar came from the Spiritual Tower.

An obscure whisper of death filled the entire cave, heavy footsteps were getting closer and closer, and soon a huge body appeared in everyone's field of vision.

"Ah!!!" Leah's face turned pale instantly. It's hard to imagine that a strong girl who can calmly face crowds of skeletons would have such an expression. Leah opened her eyes exaggeratedly and bit her lips tightly. , The whole person shrank into a ball, covering his face with his hands tightly.

What appeared in front of everyone was a huge natural disaster creature.
