Duque died.
Once again.
After a few months, he had almost forgotten the smell of death.
There were some things that he could never get used to, such as dying again and again.
In the game, when the team was wiped out while exploring the Boss, running to the corpse again and again was not a problem at all.
In this real Azeroth, the punishment of death was more terrifying than Duque had imagined.
Duque's soul was not in the graveyard near Karazhan, nor did he have the option to give up healing and resurrect in the graveyard.
His soul had always been next to his corpse, surrounded by a lifeless scene. The scene of death, which he had once been very uncomfortable with, extended to the end of his vision.
In the black and white world in front of him, there were dark grey, almost black clouds floating everywhere. They seemed to be pulled by some invisible force on Sargeras's body. They slowly rotated around Sargeras like a whirlpool, like a slowly rotating tornado.
Just as he had feared, when he encountered a superior demon, his soul was very easily corrupted and eroded.
Now, it was bound by the evil power of the Demon King.
System Notification: "You have been killed by the Demon King Sargeras. Due to the image of highly concentrated demon power, your Soul Power is only left with 70% and your humanity is 60%.
"Warning, you are now within the range of Sargeras's soul corruption. You will lose 1 Soul Power and 1% of your humanity every 5 minutes. You cannot leave the 100-meter radius of Sargeras in your soul state.
Fortunately, Duque still saw the option to pick up the corpse and resurrect, and Sargeras didn't seem to notice his special soul.
He didn't dare to resurrect.
If he resurrected casually, he would be easily killed again, and it would make Sargeras even more vigilant. He couldn't drag it out for too long.
Otherwise, he could only join the Burning Legion and become a demon.
Duque could wait, but he wouldn't sit still and wait for death. When he couldn't hold on any longer, he would naturally give it his all.
However, Duque in his soul state wouldn't just sit around and do nothing.
He had done something that most mortals couldn't imagine — he had hacked into Karazhan's defense system.
This wasn't just his own effort. The greater credit was due to the system elf and a certain special existence.
There was no doubt that the system elf was powerful. In the world with computers before his transmigration, most of the complicated and relatively simple tasks were handled by computers.
Not so in Azeroth.
If there was no magic, this would still be a world where the officers on the battlefield could only shout orders, and if they were too far away, they could only release signal flares or have the cavalry act as messengers.
Even if there were spells, magic arrays, and other defense systems, they were still mostly simple information feedback. For example, if someone triggered a certain alarm system in Karazhan, even the most sophisticated sensor could only barely sense the strength of the other party, the number of people, and other basic information. In order to carefully assess the enemy's strength, the Mage himself had to use [Mage's Eye] and other observation methods to confirm it with his own eyes.
If the owner of Karazhan was still Medivh, Duque might not have been able to do anything. But Sargeras was another matter altogether.
Previously, in order to confuse others, Karazhan's entire magic defense system was set up in the style of humans. Basically, Sargeras wasn't easy to use. After Sargeras completely controlled Medivh, he didn't have the time to change the entire Mage Tower to the system that demons were used to, because Sargeras was busy plotting against the six members of the Tirisfal Council.
Sargeras didn't think it would be useful, so he left a big gap for Duque.
Moreover, Duque had a helper — the soul of Medivh's biological father, Alan.
On the night that Medivh came of age, he was awakened by a nightmare. The huge energy in his body began to explode, crossing the Astral Plane and alarming the priests of the Northshire Abbey. They rushed to the Storm Stronghold at top speed, and Alan and hundreds of priests worked together to suppress the explosion of energy. A few days later, the energy suddenly disappeared. Medivh fell into a deep sleep, and his father, Nielas Alan, fell to the ground and died from exhaustion.
But no one knew that Alan's soul hadn't completely dissipated. In 'history', when Medivh was killed by Khadgar, Alan's soul, who was bound in Karazhan, was eroded by evil power and became a Boss called 'Shadow of Alan'.
Previously, after Duque dealt with the Evil Hoof, he went to visit Alan's soul.
At this moment, Alan was still rational. After learning that his favorite child, Medivh, had been eroded by Sargeras, Alan decided to help.
Few people knew that Medivh's achievements were not only because of his mother Aegwynn's extremely powerful bloodline and the inheritance of the guardian's power, but also because of the teachings of Nielas Alan, the former court mage of Stormwind.
So when Medivh built Karazhan later, he used Alan's knowledge and design concepts.
With the system elf working, and Medivh's father as a traitor, it would be strange if Duque didn't stir up trouble.
After the system elf completely analyzed this defense system, Duque wasn't just adding water to milk. He was simply mixing milk into water to fool Sargeras.
In the air outside Karazhan, it seemed like a tragic 'massacre' had just begun.
In the air near Karazhan, which seemed to be just an ordinary building, countless complicated and precise magic circles suddenly flashed. Different colors represented the different elemental realms that the magic circles connected to.
With the support of the huge magic pool, these magic circles were able to open the openings to the elemental realms to the limit.
Along with the dazzling magical radiance, huge blazing fireballs, long icy arrows, and cyclones that could easily cut through steel poured out in the direction where the dragons were coming from.
A hundred?
A thousand?
No, it was a magic storm formed by tens of thousands of magic circles that surrounded the entire Karazhan.
This magic storm easily engulfed the dragons thousands of meters away.
"Aegwynn —" The largest red dragon among the dragons roared angrily in Aegwynn's direction.
Seeing this, the Red Dragon Queen's first reaction was that she had been tricked.
Dragons had quite good magic resistance, but it was only good. They couldn't achieve the legendary complete immunity to magic. With such a huge amount of high-level magic pouring down, it was obvious that the dragons would be greatly weakened after this battle, even if they didn't go extinct.
No wonder Alexstrasza was mad.
She could almost imagine that in an instant, her children, her people, would be pierced through by powerful magic or directly through their bodies. They would scream in despair and fall from the sky, sprinkling a noble rain of blood.
However, after the storm-like attack, it seemed that … not a single falling dragon was seen.
Huh? What the hell?!
