Chapter 710 Farewell, Kel'Thuzad
When Charlemagne and Kel'Thuzad started the decisive battle, the dragon army led by Krasus and Isarios was crossing the strait and approaching the Jotunheim area rapidly.
Isarios' tone was as lazy as ever. He seemed to be yawning and asked Krasus, "How long will it take to arrive? No, we can only help Charlemagne collect the body?"
"Two hours."
Krasus choked out angrily, "Crow mouth, can you say a few words less? I don't think Charlemagne would die that easily. Besides, there is a fortress relying on defense, so it is not so easy to be breached by natural disasters."
"But the number of natural disasters far exceeds the limit of the oath, right? With more than 3,000 of them facing the enemy's army of more than 40,000... How long do you think they can last?"
"Shut up! Stop sarcasm, it's because of your bad mouth that you always have no friends!"
"I'm just telling the truth."
Then the two flying in the front fell silent at the same time. After a long while, when the dilapidated Balagad Castle could be seen in the distance, Isarios sighed, "Actually, I don't want Charlemagne to be like this." Simply die, after all, he is kind to the Green Dragon Army."
Krasus said in a deep voice, "Then don't talk nonsense and fly quickly! The sooner we arrive, the better we can ensure the safety of the fortress!"
"Yes Yes…"
————————
The battle with Kel'Thuzad made Charlemagne like a mouse pulling a turtle, and it was difficult to find a loophole to start.
Not to mention the solid spell shield covered by the Grand Lich, the endless spells in his hands also made Charlemagne exhausted.
Curse, poison, debuff magic, all kinds of disgusting spells were cast on Charlemagne by Kel'Thuzad one by one.
Although it couldn't cause any fatal damage to him, it really made him feel the aggrieved feeling of Raiden when he faced Yogg-Saron.
And compared to Yogg-Saron's relatively monotonous tentacle attack, Kel'Thuzad will predict Charlemagne's evasion position in advance when he moves slowly, and bury magic traps in the snow that can be triggered at regular intervals.
The Ring of Frost is a spell he uses more frequently. If it weren't for Charlemagne's ability to float in time with the power of the vector, he would almost be caught by the opponent several times.
‘It’s more difficult to fight on the ground, so let’s attack in the air! '
Charlemagne directly gave up the running and bombing tactics on the ground, suspended in mid-air and confused Kel'Thuzad's judgment with erratic movements.
His idea worked. Kel'Thuzad obviously lacked the ability to deal with this kind of enemy flying randomly in the sky. When Charlemagne removed the messy debuff effects on his body one by one, his situation became even more difficult.
In the past, when Malygos taught Charlemagne to learn magic, he often said a word, no matter how powerful a spell is, as long as it cannot hit people, it is meaningless, and it is just a waste of mana.
Kel'Thuzad doesn't have to worry about running out of mana, but he has been unable to attack for a long time, and it is inevitable that he will have a weak irritability in his heart. Even the undead cannot be completely immune to their own emotional changes.
While wandering around in the air, Charlemagne shot arrows from time to time to interrupt Kel'Thuzad's spellcasting, and at the same time looked at the surrounding terrain with sharp eyes.
‘Kel’Thuzad doesn’t seem to have moved much since the start of the battle. Is this guy a pure turret-type spellcaster? '
There are also a variety of schools among spellcasters. Like Antonidas, there are traditional fort mages who have refined the protection school and more often choose to stand up.
Due to lack of experience in fighting Kel'Thuzad before, Charlemagne was disrupted by a lot of messy combination spells at first. Only now did he realize that Kel'Thuzad, an Antonidas disciple, was a fort mage just like his teacher.
'In this case…'
Charlemagne showed a sinister smile on the corner of his mouth, and fired arrows in his hand. The target was not Kel'Thuzad shrouded in a solid shield, but the snowfield around his feet.
"Um?"
Kel'Thuzad hurriedly moved his steps, but his clumsy movements clearly exposed his weakness in walking.
'bingo…'
Charlemagne continued to move in disorder in the air, and kept shooting arrows from his hands to bombard the snow field around Kel'Thuzad, which made the archlicch annoyed and could only use the flash technique to switch positions.
While the arrows were attacking the ground and snowflakes were flying everywhere, Charlemagne quietly buried five large magic crystals in several places in the snowfield. Through the pre-calculated position, he purposely used the energy arrows to shoot Kerr who was flashing around. Sugad rushed into the trap he set up.
Seeing that Kel'Thuzad flashed onto a flat snow field again, Charlemagne's eyes flashed, 'It's now! '
‘Space anchor activated! '
"Um... this is?"
Before the astonished Kel'Thuzad could feel the strange changes around him in detail, Charlemagne pulled out the eagle's claw from his back, and aimed it straight at Kel'Thuzad who had just stood still.
"It's useless, how can this kind of time-consuming attack be possible...huh?"
The locked Kel'Thuzad planned to activate the flash again while talking, but he was suddenly surprised to find...the surrounding space seemed to be imprisoned.
Not only the Blink, short-distance teleportation is also unusable like the portal, which makes Kel'Thuzad, who always likes to rely on dodge and solid protection spells to build defenses, a little confused for a while.
Kel'Thuzad immediately understood the strange feeling before, and he sighed softly, "So that's it. The spell that was activated just now was used to restrict space movement. I was careless."
Charlemagne's Arrow of Longinus has been condensed, and after taking a last look at the archlich, Charlemagne said softly, "Farewell, Kel'Thuzad."
"Whoa! Boom!"
After the powerful eagle claw hit the target, it quickly penetrated the five layers of protection built by Kel'Thuzad, and the huge energy extinguished the soul fire wrapped in the Arch Lich's body, leaving only a wisp of remnant soul floating back to Nak Samas.
"Hoo..."
Charlemagne breathed a sigh of relief, looked at the remnant soul that floated back to the floating fortress and murmured, "Is the Lich's phylactery in Naxxramas... That would be much easier."
Undead creatures like liches will make their own phylactery. As long as the phylactery is not destroyed, they can allow their souls to escape back to their phylactery when they die and slowly recover from the trauma of the soul.
After the injury is fully recovered, they will recreate a new body and appear in front of the world again.
In the original history, Kel'Thuzad was killed in Naxxramas above the Eastern Plaguelands, and the phylactery was recovered by the Argent Dawn.
But a Scourge traitor lurking in the Silver Dawn secretly stole his phylactery and fled to Northrend. Only then did Kel'Thuzad and Naxxramas reappear during the Wrath of the Lich King.
Reached out and touched Mr. Bigworth, who was a little confused, Charlemagne looked at the huge floating fortress above and said, "I will not give you a chance to be reborn, after all... I have said goodbye in advance."
