Duque knew very well that he could not stay in Karazhan forever.
Outside, Stormwind City was being besieged, and the Green Tide of Orcs was wreaking havoc on the entire continent. No matter how he looked at it, he had to hurry back as soon as possible.
The task of defense could only be left to helpers like Khadgar and Michael.
Although the Einherjars might be of a higher level than the original elite soldiers of Stormwind City, dealing with demons was like dealing with Orcs. There was no point in simply relying on numbers. As long as it was not someone like Noxus who had entered the realm of heroes, no matter how experienced an elite soldier was, they would not be able to win against a demon.
Duque suddenly recalled a game he had played before. Coupled with the [Mechanical Traps Encyclopedia] that he had found in the Medivh library, Duque had an idea.
108 Magician's Hands immediately appeared. They flew around the first and second floors of Karazhan. They creaked as they unloaded the wood that Duque needed, and even uprooted some of the pillars in the stable. Duque injected arcane energy into the ground, freeing the huge stone bricks from the shackles of gravity, and they flew into the air along with the soil.
Khadgar was dumbfounded.
He looked at Duque, who had a lot of magic theories that he did not understand before, as if he were building a building block. Like building blocks, Duque completely changed the structure of the first and second floors of Karazhan.
"Damn it, even if Karazhan is in the middle of a space-time crack. But if you mess around like this, Karazhan will still collapse! "Khadgar could not help but exclaim.
"What? Do you know anything about architecture? "
"Huh!?" Khadgar was a Mage, not an old foreman of the Mason Brotherhood. When Duque said this, he was immediately stunned. "You know?"
"Of course, as long as I don't touch the supporting pillars and load-bearing walls, even if I hollow out the first and second floors, there will be no problem. Also, I have calculated the gravity here, and it is only about 80% of the gravity outside. I can make it even sharper. "
Although Khadgar did not understand what Duque was saying, he did not understand!
Just like that, Duque spent about a day turning the first and second floors of the Karazhan into a huge Death Labyrinth.
Spiked traps, tar traps, arrow walls, spring traps, blade walls … together with some gaps that led straight to the void turbulence, Duque ran into a propulsion trap that could knock away a huge body larger than a ton.
Everything was ready except for the demons.
Two days later, at the main entrance of Karazhan, the chaotic void of red and black separated. A thick green light that was not too dazzling, like the light of moldy pea soup in a dark cuisine, illuminated the main entrance of Karazhan.
In Duque's perception, it was an evil aura that pierced through the chaotic void. The unknown world connected directly to Karazhan.
A huge crack was forcefully torn open in space, and some kind of magic was rapidly reinforcing the crack. A terrifying aura, so evil that it was almost tangible, gushed out from the portal. Duque, who was sitting at the end of the second floor, could also quickly smell the unpleasant aura.
Beside Duque, Khadgar's expression changed slightly. After seeing Duque nod, he walked in front of a crystal ball that was flashing with arcane light and pressed his hand on the crystal ball.
It was a soul crystal ball that could connect to the spirit seas of all the Einherjars on the first and second floors.
"The guest has arrived! I repeat, the guest has arrived. "
As soon as he finished his sentence, a huge red gauntlet appeared at the entrance of the portal. The next second, a humanoid demon over five meters tall with crimson dragon wings stepped out of the portal.
His entire body had explosive red muscles, and he wore heavy armor. His head was a bit like a rough orc's, but there were huge horns on his head that orcs did not have. He had a pair of powerful legs like those of a goat. Not only were they folded back, but they also had huge hooves.
The blazing flames that wrapped around his body contrasted with his huge body, making this Apocalypse Guard look extremely ferocious and terrifying.
"Kill all those who resist here. Master Sargeras will not fall in a place like this! Search! Search for him! Even if this place is completely destroyed, we must find the passage to Master's location! " This huge demon was roaring at his subordinates in the Eredar language, which was also commonly known by humans as the Demon Language.
Countless terrifying figures rushed out from his side.
There was a Demon Hound that was completely red and had four limbs on the ground. It had two long black and white tentacles and two huge bull horns.
There was also a Demon Guard that was bare-chested, had indigo skin, and had strong chest muscles. Apart from their bare upper bodies, the Demon Guard's arms and waist were covered in heavy armor that was mainly red with white edges. Long crimson horns grew out from his head and back.
There was also a Void Demon that was covered in armor. Its true form was actually an inverted triangular dark blue energy body.
They swarmed forward in a chaotic manner and rushed into the long passage at the main gate of Karazhan.
Suddenly, the fastest Hellhound seemed to have stepped on something. The sound of metal rubbing could be heard in the darkness. In the next second, dozens of sharp spikes shot out from the floor. As if they wanted to skewer the Hellhound, they pierced the abdomen of the Hellhound.
As the scouts of the Demon Army, the Hellhound had agility that Duque did not know about. The moment the spikes were about to touch its abdomen, the Hellhound suddenly arched its back and bounced into the air like a spring.
Unfortunately, without any warning, a two-meter by two-meter square suddenly fell from the ceiling. Before the hellhound could do anything else, it was abruptly knocked back to the ground.
* Chi! * The sharp metal spikes ended the Hellhound's life.
Accompanied by a series of clattering sounds, the spikes were retracted back into the ground. The ceiling that had fallen a certain distance was also pulled back up by the stirring gears, quietly waiting for the next victim.
Of course, there was more than one Hellhound that was hit.
The demons charged forward. Suddenly, there was a bang. A huge demon that could easily kill 20 elite human warriors was suddenly sent flying by a metal brick from the ground.
The unlucky guy was caught off guard. Like a cannonball that had been stuffed into the barrel of a cannon, he was ejected with a loud bang.
Demons were not beasts that had no intelligence and only knew how to kill. They were shocked by the strange situation. Their eyes followed the figure of the victim until the victim hit a wall and stopped. Only then did their eyes start to focus.
Before they could shift their focus, three sets of crossed giant axes suddenly popped out from the seemingly ordinary wall. Those axes were ridiculously heavy even when carried by ogres.
The axe blade, which had a diameter of more than a meter, could easily chop off a dragon's neck, let alone a demon.
With a chilling glint, the demon only had time to scream before the cold gleam of the axes flashed across his body. On the wall, there were only a few deep cracks, splattered demon blood, and scattered pieces of flesh that could no longer be pieced together.
