Chapter 3: Winter in Northrend will consume your souls!
"Good guy, this familiar feeling of weightlessness from teleportation. Where am I? It's so dark all around that I can't see anything clearly!"
After taking out the "Hand of Glory" from his backpack and lighting the candle inside for lighting, Gu Xiaoheng couldn't help but take a deep breath after seeing everything around him clearly.
The stalactites with bits of ice on top of his head and the uneven rock surface all around made it clear that he was in a cave at the moment.
A few meters away, on the ground, was a long sword that he was very familiar with - Frostmourne!
In the small cave, the ground and even the air near Frostmourne were as cold and dead as an eternal glacier.
Just standing there, Gu Xiaoheng's health was in a state of losing 5 health points every 10 seconds. And this was already the result of the remaining power of Frostmourne's teleportation protecting him.
Staring at the "miniature version of Frostmourne"-shaped emblem that appeared on the back of his right hand, Gu Xiaoheng had no doubt that if he had not been protected by the power of Frostmourne, he would have frozen to death the moment he was teleported here.
, the soul must return to Black Rock Town to run away from the corpse.
However, none of the above is the point.
What Gu Xiaoheng never expected was that he actually discovered a creature on the other side of the cave that shouldn't be there at all - a female angel!
On the frozen soil less than half a meter away from Frostmourne, there was a young angel sister who kept her eyes open and looked forward, sitting cross-legged and motionless.
She has burgundy hair and a pair of sapphire eyes that are simply breathtakingly beautiful. Even though she is wearing a thick rose gold carved skirt and armor, she can't hide her long and eye-catching legs while sitting cross-legged. There are ten people behind her.
Two pairs of angel wings exuding a holy atmosphere add a different kind of beauty to this picturesque picture.
While admiring Sister Angel's beauty, Gu Xiaoheng still quietly took a step forward and took a few steps back.
His intuition told him that the current scene seemed to him to be full of contradictions and aberrations.
You know, the angel with twelve wings not far away is not an unknown cannon fodder, but a Seraph with noble blood in the top camp "Supreme Heaven" that controls the Holy Light!
Seraph, who has such noble blood, is in the same room with the legendary sword "Frostmourne" of the undead tribe in this cave. There must be something fishy in this.
To paraphrase Pan Zishu, the water here is very deep and he can’t grasp it!
If we think about the status of Frostmourne in the mission description as "being sealed", then the identity of the angel in front of us can almost be revealed. The angel in front of us can only be the sealed guardian of Frostmourne!
Click——
Before Gu Xiaoheng could take the first step to retreat, Frostmourne in the center of the cave was filled with ice-blue light as if it had finally awakened after a long sleep.
After the sound of "Boom!", the roaring and howling ice crystal wind suddenly erupted with Frostmourne as the center, and the whirling and biting cold air directly aimed at the angel sister who was sitting cross-legged not far away.
Looking at this huge momentum, Frostmourne is not only "getting up", but also quite big!
"Human, this is not where you should come!"
While Gu Xiaoheng was hiding aside to watch the show in a hurry, the angel lady at the center of the storm, who had been motionless with her eyes open and looked like a stone sculpture, finally started to move by shaking her hands up and down in seals.
The angel's rapier, which had been placed on the angel's knees, suddenly turned into a bright holy light energy that filled the sky and enveloped the angel.
No matter how raging the icy storm caused by Frost's Sorrow, this protective shield of holy light still stands, protecting the angel queen.
This fierce offensive and defensive battle lasted only 3 seconds and ended.
After a soft "bang" sound, the raging ice storm and the holy light protective shield simultaneously dissipated in place because the power master's energy was exhausted.
As for Gu Xiaoheng, who was watching the show on the sidelines, he escaped the disaster thanks to the blessing and protection of Frostmourne on the back of his hand.
Perhaps even because Frostmourne's own necromantic power was exhausted, even the "Frostbite" debuff that caused him to continuously lose health disappeared.
Bata, bah...
After stepping on the ice and snow under his feet and confirming that Shuang Ming Shuang and Angel Royal Sister had no intention of fighting, Gu Xiaoheng came to Shuang Ming Shuang.
Finally keeping half a meter away from Frostmourne, Gu Xiaoheng stopped and looked carefully at the legendary long sword of the undead that was rumored to be cursed in front of him.
On the hilt of Frostmourne's sword, which was as dark as night, the strange skull was staring at him. Just like in the previous illusion, this long sword exuding the coldness of death could not stop expressing its love for him. Gu Xiaoheng
desire and calling.
In a daze, Gu Xiaoheng even sensed the thoughts conveyed to him by Frostmourne:
"Human, pull me up from the seal! Pull me out, and I will recognize you as my master. Then together we will take advantage of the angel's power failure and kill her with one sword!"
After hearing these words, Gu Xiaoheng immediately turned his head to look at Sister Angel who was sitting cross-legged.
Unlike the high-spirited confrontation with Frostmourne just now, the angel's jade-white face at this moment was filled with despair and an expression of perseverance that would never give up.
It seems that the Angel Queen is really exhausted as Frostmourne said!
However, even so, Gu Xiaoheng did not immediately follow Frostmourne's words like a puppet of a system task.
Because the moment he saw Angel and Frostmourne both hit rock bottom, a bold idea came to his mind.
Since Frostmourne is still in a sealed state, and Angel has already exhausted his strength... is it possible that he can have both?!
"Human, what are you still hesitating about? Pull me up from the ground quickly. As soon as you pull me up, the recognition ceremony will be automatically completed! Hurry, destroy the angels, and this is your chance to gain freedom!"
Seeing that Gu Xiaoheng, the only human being present who was still able to move, was still hesitating, Frostmourne once again conveyed his urging intention to him.
This time, Gu Xiaoheng finally followed Frostmourne's instructions.
Under the sad look of the angel sister on the side, the young human man in front of him expressionlessly placed his hand on the cursed undead legendary long sword "Frostmourne" that had been sealed in the frozen soil for countless epochs.
”.
The sealing power that has gone through a long period of time has been completely destroyed and dissipated due to the exhaustion of the power of the owner of its source of power - the angel.
Because the power of the seal dissipated, the entire process of drawing the sword was extremely easy and smooth. As the executor of drawing the sword to break the seal, Gu Xiaoheng didn't even expend any effort.
Ouch!! The moment Frostmourne broke through, a huge shadow appeared out of thin air above Gu Xiaoheng's head.
Accompanied by thousands of terrifying whispers and roars, a being wearing a crown of control and hiding his face in the shadows was completely revealed.
He just sat on the frozen throne that seemed to have lasted for thousands of years, his eyes flashing with blue soul fire staring coldly at all the enemies in front of him. Even if he was looked at by this king in the shadow, all living things in the world would be affected.
Every soul must have the illusion of being frozen by it...
Maybe...this is not an illusion.
At this moment, with Gu Xiaoheng holding Frostmourne in his hand as the center, the stalactites on the ceiling of the cave are covered with a layer of black ice that is ten thousand years old. The frozen soil that was not obvious before is now being covered by even more ferocious and terrifying ice.
Covered with thorns and glaciers.
Everything in the cave seemed to be filled with coldness, deathly silence and despair, as if it was the end of all things...
Seeing that Gu Xiaoheng not only pulled out Frostmourne, but also summoned the phantom of the "Lich King" in the sword out of thin air, the angel sister, whose strength was so exhausted that she could hardly stand up, shouted in complete despair: "No! You
Let Frostmourne be completely unsealed!"
The angel, who was completely powerless to prevent this from happening, could only watch in vain as the humans controlled by Frostmourne walked toward them with swords in hand.
Yes, Gu Xiaoheng, who is holding the sword at this moment, seems to Angel Sister to be a "puppet master" controlled by Frostmourne.
After all, with Gu Xiaoheng's frail body and spirit, no matter how exhausted Frostmourne's strength was, it would be easy to control his body and seize his mind.
Facing Frostmourne, whose power has been unlocked, the angel who has fought against it for countless epochs can already predict today's outcome - what awaits her must be the legendary desperate and gloomy death...
Bata...bata...
The slight sound of human footsteps stepping on the ice and frozen soil felt like a huge weight in the heart of the angel queen at this moment.
After a few breaths, the human holding Frostmourne finally stopped in front of her.
Feeling that the foreseeable end of death was coming, the consciousness of being the incarnation of justice like the Holy Light drove the angel sister to almost scream and shout out her last words that she had already thought about:
"Go ahead, you greedy human being whose body has been taken over by the cursed demon sword Frostmourne!"
snap——
Frostmourne, as expected, did not cut down on the angel, but instead stuck on the ground.
Facing Sister Angel's surprised gaze with deep disbelief, Gu Xiaoheng spoke his first words after entering the cave in a calm tone.
Chapter completed!
