613【Weird Shadow Demon】
613【Weird Shadow Demon】
At midnight, the moon stars are sparse, and the bright moonlight shines on the grassland.
On the hilly grassland, there are groups of New Mogu people, either holding portable energy detection devices to conduct carpet inspections, or standing together in the detection array to check for arcane energy anomalies within a range of dozens of kilometers.
It has to be said that the new mogu created by High-Level Guardian Riley using the Nalaksha Engine are more loyal and more perfect than their old predecessors.Each individual has a variety of built-in programs, which are divided into combat type, spellcasting type and other types according to different programs. Some are proficient in Titan technology that combines arcane magic and engineering, some are responsible for maintaining ancient facilities, and some are good at close combat. There is also a part of the body that contains a weak power of order, which can play a certain suppressive role when fighting against shadow creatures.
The main force in this search for Uldaman is the new mogu who are proficient in spellcasting. According to the strength system of the mortal race, they are not inferior to an epic-level mortal mage, and the spells they master are also more sophisticated. , it can be said to be extremely powerful.
There was no other way. Under the premise that Uldaman was self-isolating and hiding himself, Angmar could only lead them to use this stupid method to investigate the grassland inch by inch.Given that there are a large number of facilities in Uldaman that are powered by arcane energy, arcane energy will inevitably overflow during operation. No matter how perfect the concealment method is, it is difficult to perfectly eliminate this energy fluctuation.
As long as you eliminate the interference of the magic network, look for the magical anomalies in this land, and investigate one by one, you can always find the location of Uldaman.It's a pity that the efficiency of this move is too low. Even with the help of the five-color dragon clan, the manpower is still obviously insufficient, and it is simply not enough to intensively investigate the entire grassland.
Of course, everyone hopes that Uldaman has not been completely closed. When a small amount of energy fluctuations inevitably leak out, it will still use detection spells to pay attention to the outside world, or regularly send out creatures such as earth spirits and mechanical gnomes. Carry out alert and reconnaissance missions.
In this way, whether you locate the source of the energy fluctuations or simply encounter an Uldaman reconnaissance team, you will eventually be lucky enough to find this ancient facility...
When he discovered the shadow creature, Angmar was checking the readings of a detection circle, but suddenly he looked into the distance thoughtfully.
The ugly shadow creature was standing on the top of a hill a few hundred meters away to the north, its mouth wide open to the base of its ears - if this kind of shadow creature with several tentacles holding a head also had ears - , rancid black saliva dripped continuously, corroding the large grassland under his feet.
This is the most common shadow demon.
It didn't hide itself, just looked at Angmar quietly.
The leader Heng Yi, who led a group of new mogu people to guard the periphery, also discovered the shadow creature and immediately led his people forward to deal with it.In the past ten days, they often encountered shadow creatures sent by Loken to spy on them, and they naturally killed them after finding them.
However, the Shadow Demon did not dodge or dodge. Instead, he kept staring at Angmar. He showed neither fear of Angmar nor any intention of running away. It was extremely abnormal.
Heng Yi also felt that the Shadow Demon's behavior was a little too weird, so he planned to imprison it with magic and bring it back for investigation first.But when he raised his right hand that shone with arcane light, Angmar raised his hand to stop him.
"and many more."
He suddenly became curious about this shadow creature.
First of all, not to mention my keen perception of shadows, let alone a few hundred meters, no matter how careless I am, once there are signs of shadow creature activity within a few kilometers, I will be able to detect it immediately.
But this shadow creature bypassed the New Mogu sentry. It was obviously very weak, but it reached such a close distance. If it hadn't deliberately exposed its whereabouts, I'm afraid Angmar still wouldn't have noticed it. It was hiding and sneaking. The ability is a bit too abnormal.
At this moment, the Shadow Demon seemed to be aware of his inner thoughts. He twisted his body, turned around and moved his worm-like tentacles, and walked slowly to the north, leaving a long series of corrosion traces behind him. .
It was as if... he was taking Angmar somewhere.
"Hengyi, take them to continue the search work, and I'll go take a look." Angmar said, stepped forward, and followed the Shadow Demon from a distance.
"Prophet, this may be a trap." Heng Yi frowned and said.
"I know."
Of course Angmar knew that this might be a trap, but he didn't think anyone in Azeroth could control him at this time.
Loken and the other four corrupted guardians are far away in the corrupted army in the north, and Neltharion will never expose himself at this time.Even if he comes, unless we get here together, he can still outrun him if he can't fight.
In this world, the only ones who can crush him without any suspense without relying on numerical superiority are the ancient gods.
But then again, not to mention that they would never leave their home ground and risk their lives to come here to deal with me. Even if they come, what will happen to their huge bodies like mountains of flesh and blood and the dark aura surging around them? They cannot be hidden, and even the weakest new mogu can detect their traces immediately.
However, to be on the safe side, Angmar released his majestic spiritual power and activated redemption, concentrating on guarding against possible sneak attacks.
……
The grassland was very quiet under the night. The Shadow Demon gradually increased its speed, and finally maintained a speed slightly faster than the horses, while Angmar hung far behind.
Most of these weak shadow creatures are condensed in places where shadows gather. They have no mind and are extremely weak. They can only act according to instinct.Those shadow priests in later generations who are well versed in the ways of light and shadow can easily control them and make them work for themselves.
Perhaps because it was too weak and could not maintain a high speed for a long time without being able to replenish energy, the Shadow Demon's body shriveled up at a speed visible to the naked eye, no longer leaving traces of mucus-like corruption wherever it passed, but it did. Still maintaining the original speed, he finally led Angmar to a flat area that had been thoroughly investigated by the New Mogu three days ago and was confirmed to be unlikely to be where Uldaman was...
After running for four or five hours, nearly [-] kilometers away from the original location, the Shadow Demon finally stopped. He turned around and glanced at Angmar with the two black holes on his head that were suspected to be visual organs. It was exhausted and turned into a puddle of black water...
died.
This is how shadow creatures die.
Angmar frowned, wondering why the shadow demon brought him here. He glanced around to confirm that there were no powerful beings hiding around him who were ready to attack him, when he suddenly heard the sound of the shadow energy being purified coming from the front. , a unique "sizzling" sound.
He followed the sound and looked towards the place where the shadow creature died.
I saw that the black pus that was supposed to seep into the ground, causing the soil within a few meters to be corrupted. Since then, no grass has grown, actually triggered some kind of purification spell that should never exist here, and is being treated bit by bit. Completely purified!
Angmar was startled, and subconsciously pulled the salvation from his neck, and took a photo forward...
In the soft light emitted by the salvation, a magnificent ancient building complex in the style of the Titans was revealed.
