Rise of the blood elves

577【Rescue】

The devil has been planning for a long time and is well prepared.Regardless of their number or the sophistication of their weapons and equipment, they far surpassed the night elves present.

On the other hand, the night elves, except for those mages who don't have to rely on external objects, from Lord Ravencrest to the priestesses of the Temple of the Moon, don't even have weapons at their disposal.The personal guards who accompanied the meeting were also wearing ceremonial armor to show their status, and they were undoubtedly unable to cope with the upcoming battle.

Even though everyone knew that today would be a disaster, they were shocked to realize their miscalculation of the situation when the Dreadlord launched his attack.This is not a misfortune, but...

Ten dead.

The Dread Lord, vibrating its wings, rushed into the crowd like a strong wind, instantly tearing apart the three Black Crow Castle guards standing at the front.

As blood and body parts were flying in the sky, the Moon Guards reacted and launched a counterattack.But the next second, the body of the Dread Lord exploded into a swarm of bats, avoiding all spell attacks and continuing to rush towards the back of the crowd...

By the time people realized that the demon was targeting Master Padrich, it was already too late.

The bat swarm regarded all attacks and magic as nothing, and ignored a few scattered bats that were chopped down by Lord Ravencrest with his sword. They walked straight through the crowd and reorganized in an instant next to Master Padrich, stretching out their sharp claws. ,one strike……

He pierced through the fragile magic barrier and the extremely weak flesh and blood body behind the barrier, and then with a gentle squeeze of his hand, he directly crushed the still beating heart that was taken out of the body. .

Padrich's eyes widened, and he never figured out until his death how this demon broke through the defense circle and approached him in just one second, and easily broke through his magic barrier...

With a "plop" sound, the mage's body slid softly to the ground.

Time seemed to have stopped at this moment.

The strongest man present, the third member of the Magister Council of Suramar City, possesses quasi-legendary strength and is unique in the entire Kaldorei Empire. He once enjoyed the favor of the Queen because of his single-handed ability to turn decay into magical enchantment. The master of enchantment, Padrich, was everyone's hope of escaping, but at the beginning of the battle...

He was killed easily.

The Dread Lord who completed this beheading operation had no intention of turning into a bat again and escaping from danger.Although they were surrounded by more than twenty night elves in the depths, they were looking at everyone with a look full of disdain and provocation, as if they didn't take them seriously at all.

"Do not--!"

Just as the demons on the periphery launched an attack, the stunned Lord Ravencrest let out a roar and launched an extremely fast offensive towards the Dread Lord.The chief priest Dijana, who was holding the weapon of a dead guard, also cooperated.

Faced with the attack from the two men, the Fear Demon Network didn't even take a breath.The sharp claws lingering in the strange green mist cut off Dejana's weapon with a single swipe, and released a wave of evil energy enveloping the rotten bats, directly cutting off the woman who had lost her relationship with Elune due to the barrier. The chief priest, whose combat power was severely damaged due to the connection, was thrown far away, and fell behind the demon's line, not knowing whether he was alive or dead.

Then he turned around and concentrated on dealing with the ultimate target of this assassination operation, Lord Ravencrest.

It has to be said that Ravencrest, who has experienced hundreds of battles, is the top warrior among the night elves. He constantly takes advantage of the agility brought by his size, seizes every opportunity while evading, and launches counterattacks repeatedly.It's a pity that his sword couldn't break through the Dread Lord's defense at all. It just left white marks on the black armor covered with complicated runes that fell off with a wipe.

The battle outside was raging, with elite demons several times the size of the night elves ruthlessly harvesting their lives.The Moon Guard and the magisters of Suramar City, no matter how superb their spells are, are not enough to reverse the defeat.

If this situation continues, in less than half a minute at most, this battle will end with the total destruction of the night elves.

But in the middle of the battlefield, the battle between Ravencrest and the Dread Lord was like a cat playing with a mouse.

The Dread Lord dealt with Ravencrest's attack with ease. Occasionally, the few Black Crow Castle soldiers who rushed back to the savior, or the spells of the Moon Guards who were distracted by all their attention, were spared by him. Solved it with little effort.

"You know, your compatriot Harveys, who switched to the Ming Dynasty, even put you in an equally important position as Prince Farodis and Prince Tortheldrin. He said that you are a strategic person who knows the way of war. Master, an experienced commander. If not eliminated, it may hinder the master's career - although it will only delay the time for us to destroy this world."

During the battle, the Dread Lord said playfully.

At this time, most of the night elves had been killed and injured, and the three moon guards were also defeated in the spell duel with the eredar warlocks, and were melted into pools of rancid ichor.Only a few stronger soldiers, the senior moon guard Latusius, a Suramar magister, and two moon priestesses were still making a last stand.

"Why don't you learn to be smart and take refuge with us, the only truth in the universe. You can use your talents and command an army of demons to attack the land from here to the east of the continent... If you do well, maybe the master will appreciate your talent. , grant you...ah!"

The words ended abruptly in a cry of pain, and Lord Ravencrest responded with practical actions.The slender sword hit the weak point of the Dread Lord's shoulder armor with great precision, and thick green putrid blood suddenly spurted out.

"It seems you are not as smart as I thought!"

The Dread Lord was so angry that he put away all his playful thoughts and knocked off Ravencrest's sword with one hand and his claws. He reached forward with his other big hand and inevitably grabbed his neck, holding him high. Mentioned in front of his eyes.

"The last choice I give you is to surrender to us or die?"

Ravencrest's figure is much taller than that of ordinary night elves, but when faced with the Dreadlord, who is more than four meters tall, he is no different from a dwarf. His waist is not as thick as the opponent's arms, and he can't get rid of him even with all his strength. The big hands were wrapped around his neck like hoops, his legs were jumping up and down, and his face was turning red.

"I...will never...give in even if I die!" He said with all his strength.

The Dread Lord's eyes flashed fiercely when he heard this, and he increased the strength of his hands, "Then you go die."

Click, creak, creak...

Just when the upper edge of the breastplate protecting Ravencase's neck was dented inward due to the huge force, a clear female voice suddenly sounded throughout the audience.

"Elune, please hear my call!"

Immediately afterwards, a ray of moonlight penetrated the barrier and fell from the sky, completely covering the Dread Lord.

"Uhh—!!"

Under the illumination of the moonlight, the wrinkled skin of the Dread Lord's face began to melt and roll up at a speed visible to the naked eye, accompanied by a pungent burnt smell, and made a sizzling sound, as if it had been burned by a burning flame. burning.He let out a heart-rending scream, let go of Ravencrest in pain, and stepped back, covering his eyes.

At the same time, the barrier that isolated the courtyard suddenly shattered, and the noise from the outside world suddenly came in.

Ravencrest, who had narrowly escaped death, heard the cry of killing, and the sound of weapons clashing far more intensively than before.

Rescue has finally arrived? ... He gasped for air. After the blood flowed to his eyes again and his vision recovered slightly, he tried his best to look sideways.Under the leadership of a priestess wearing moon-white robes and a very young female mage, the night elves who came to the rescue had already fought against the demon.

A young night elf with golden eyes used exquisite magic to fight his way through the demons and rushed over.

The young man stretched out his hand to help Ravencase and asked:

"Sir, are you alright?"
