Chapter 1073 26. The Center Blooms
Mardum, the Demon Star, 1 hour before the start of Operation Leviathan.
"hum"
On the edge of this desolate and broken world, in the gravel belt floating outside the main continent, on the back of a huge suspended stone, the blue luster of the star portal flashed away.
As a portal to the stars, it is more like an upgraded version of the internal teleportation technique in the world. On top of the original space coordinates, an additional dimension coordinate is added. When opening the portal, the calculation work and composition difficulty become ten percent Even if the researchers of the Dark Blade Legion had relatively complete information provided by Hasabel, the guardian of the portal who surrendered, it took them nearly 3 years to crack the mystery of the star gate.
This is like climbing a technology tree. Without lighting up the front technology, it is impossible to integrate more advanced technology.
But fortunately, before the demon army of the Burning Legion was assembled, this very important magic technology for Azeroth was finally lit.
In the beating and spinning of numerous cumbersome and illusory blue runes, in the wave-like energy gate, several dark blade agents that existed as "Beacon" rushed into this dead silence under the leadership of the shadow among the stars.
They were wearing weird one-piece uniforms, which looked a bit bloated, making the always nimble Saraines look extremely bulky, and top-heavy. The demons only arranged artificial gravity on the main body of Marton Continent to allow the demons to breathe. There is no fel field on the fringes of this broken world.
This place is different from the Dreadscar Rift and Niscala. Although they are both the wreckage left after the world exploded, Marton's territory is very large, almost equivalent to a quarter of the eastern continent.
This is the real kingdom of demons, and the difficulty of conquering here is completely different from that of the Battle of Niscala.
The shadow wears a strange helmet, and there is a liquid like water rolling in it. Its function is to maintain the internal pressure of the undead, so that they will not directly explode due to the imbalance of internal and external pressure after entering the stars, and also Fortunately, the undead don't need to breathe, otherwise this "spacesuit" would have to be made even heavier.
"swish"
The halo of the star gate behind several Salain agents suddenly dissipated. They lay in the shadow of the slowly rolling rocks, looking at the Marton continent in the distance. It was a land flowing with fel magma. The mountains and undulating terrain are like a country located among the stars, and under the crust of the continent is a core of the world filled with evil energy and magic power, and it is this thing that supports the land from collapsing.
The shadow made a few gestures, and behind her, the fingertips of the two Salein blood mages bounced with blood-red light. When the floating gravel approached the mainland, a miniature portal connected the stone and Between the main continents, Shadow held a beautifully decorated pendant in his left hand, which was Alleria's favorite. At the bottom of the pendant, a dark green crystal was inlaid.
This is the shadow of leaves that is one-seventh of the Atama crystal. It can distort the light and enchantment, completely cover the figure of the user, and the immunity is extremely high. Unless it is a real boss, it is difficult to see through this crystal. It is said that the Draenei used this thing to hide a city!
Under the shroud of the green halo of the shadow of the leaves, several agents stepped into the miniature portal, and then almost brushed the edge of the patrolling demon soldiers, and walked into the demon world.
The area where they landed was a barren mountain ridge, and there was nothing here, so the patrolling rhythm of the demons here was also very loose. According to the information provided by "Deep Sea", this place was almost a perfect penetration point.
"You guys, go to your target point and wait!"
In the demonic position where the evil energy was surging, Shadow reached out and took off the helmet, and while taking off the bloated "space suit", he ordered the other agents:
"Keep communication as smooth as possible, keep your mission in mind, don't conflict with mission demons, if the battle is unavoidable, solve it as soon as possible or ask for support!"
"Swish Swish Swish"
The agents who had recovered their agility didn't say much. They turned around and turned into the original shape of Salein, one after another, like human bats, flapping their wings and rushing into the air.
The flight speed of the high-level Salain can easily exceed 2 times the speed of sound. Based on the terrain of Marton, these agents will be in their positions within a maximum of ten minutes.
But compared to their tasks, the tasks of the shadows are obviously more difficult.
————————————————————————
The high-ranking warlock Oresis lay in her tower with blank eyes.
As the fraudster's most trusted subordinate, she still enjoys very high-level treatment even in the demon star Marton, who has been completely controlled by the lawless fear demon kings like Casanatir.
She was a wounded, and when she and her sister ventured into the fallen Valarjar to get the shield of Aggramar, she was struck by Odin's lightning and was seriously injured. After that, the Daughter of Flame received treatment from several demon masters here. The purest fel energy was infused into her body, and those scorched internal organs were healed by spells.
Her injuries are recovering, but it will take some time before she fully recovers.
"I don't know what happened to my sister."
Lying on the big bed tanned with the fur of a demon hound, Aureses, who only wore a pajamas, sighed. The days in Marton are very boring. Tichondrius, who sent her here, repeatedly emphasized to her, Many demon leaders in this place are related to Cassana Tier, they hate the fraudsters, and the reason why they can tolerate Oresis recuperating here is purely because they don't want to completely tear themselves apart with the fraudsters.
Therefore, in this place, Aureses must learn to protect herself. During the recovery period, if she can't go out, try not to go out.
A female demon like her who still maintains a beautiful face and perfect skin and is in a weak state is likely to encounter some "bad" things in Marton, a place full of chaotic order. Many things are much more terrifying than simple death.
This slightly malicious warning once made Aureses very resistant to Marton's life, but today, her days of fear can be over.
She just got the news that the mentor sent the loyal and powerful demon lord Gorelix to Mardun. The war lord of the Burning Legion seems to have come to deal with the undead problem in Azeroth. Sufficient ability to protect Aureses, and the high-level warlock has made up her mind, as soon as the high-level demon lord arrives, she will follow it back to Azeroth.
She is going to be reunited with her sister, and she can't wait. More importantly, the high-level demon's instinct for danger prediction is very active today, and her constantly beating, unquiet mind seems to be urging her to leave this place quickly.
Some bad things are likely to happen here, even if it is far away from Azeroth, even if this is one of the most powerful strongholds of the Burning Legion among the stars.
The 6 million demons wandering in this land of fel energy could not give her a sense of security.
"drop"
A sudden warning sound woke up the high-ranking warlock Oresis from her contemplation. She suddenly grabbed the flame wand placed by the bedside. The sound just now was the result of her investigation outside the tower. The sound of being touched in the world means that a stranger is approaching the tower.
The eredar high-ranking warlock with red skin and wearing pajamas slowly moved to the window. The tip of the flame wand in her hand was beating dangerous and deadly light. Under the steeple, everything seemed to be normal, and the few fel lords guarding in front of the tower did not find anything unusual.
"What are you looking for? Are you looking for me?"
And at the moment when the high-ranking warlock let go of the wand in her hand, behind her, a slightly deep female voice suddenly sounded, which made Aureses, who had been prepared, wave her wand in a moment, a terrifying The flame snake jumped on the magic wand of the skull, trying to kill the weird guy behind it completely.
But at this moment, Shadow's fingers rubbed lightly, accompanied by a strange finger-snap sound into Aureses' ears, and the Flame Daughter, who was full of murderous intent just now, recovered strangely at this second. calm.
True peace, without the fluctuation of the soul, without the jump of thinking, is like entering the state of "time pause". Even the dancing flame on her wand, because of the loss of energy supply, drifts and dissipates in the air, just Like a extinguished spark.
After completing the control of Experimental Subject 12-B, Shadow lowered his head in embarrassment, and looked at the scratches on his arms. This was the "souvenir" left by her accidentally triggering the alarm when she entered the Devil's Tower.
For a master assassin, this kind of low-level mistake should not happen, but... there are always times when people miss.
"Alright, Subject 12-B."
The shadow moved back a few steps, leaning against the wall with surging evil energy, she said to Oresis in front of her eyes:
"Report on your recent work."
The switch of the soul code was turned on, and Aureses used an emotionless voice to tell the dark blade agent in front of her what had happened during this period of time without reservation. After the news of "Gorelix" and "the Maw of the Curse, a terrifying weapon specially brought to solve the problem of the undead", Shadow's expression became a little ugly.
Obviously, the appearance of this seemingly powerful and targeted demon lord was an accident.
An agent like her, who is used to everything according to the plan, hates accidents very much. Shadow didn't waste time. She took out a thing similar to a legion communicator from her storage ring, put it on the table, and put this The latest news was sent back to Azeroth, and after a few minutes, the reply from that end appeared in the form of text on the light curtain dancing in front of Shadow.
Only two lines.
"The intelligence has been shared with the frontline commanders!"
"The mission is proceeding as planned!"
———————————————————
On Marton World's Star Harbor pier, a simple ceremony of cleansing the dust is going on.
Whether it was the new Dreadlord sixth lord Russelek who came to greet him, or the demon lord Gorelix who was slowly walking out of the starship gangway, the ugly faces of the two guys were full of perfunctory and disgust.
This is normal. The demon lords in the world of Marton have been cleaned up, leaving behind all those dissatisfied with the fraudster Kil'jaeden, and the demon lord who came to the star port in front of him is Kil'jaeden's most Loyal warlord.
The two sides are not in the same group at all, and naturally there is no friendship at all.
"Lord Gorelix, Marton welcomes you."
The sixth lord of the Dreadlord Rathelek, who has the cool black and blue wings, this loyal dog of Kasanatiel, pretending to bow down to the tall demon lord who walked down the gangway in front of him, his vicious eyes watched This silent and powerful demon, with a strange tomahawk on his back, whispered:
"The Trickster seems to have brought us a new mission, but he didn't care about his own fiasco in Azeroth. Ha, what a "qualified" leader."
Rutherlake said something strangely, which made the demon lord Gorelix, who was carrying a dark red battle ax, a little angry, but before the choking fire of these two high-level demons ended, an exclamation came not far behind them sounded from the pier platform at .
Ruthlake, who had just been appointed as the interim commander of Marton not long ago, looked back and was surprised to see the generals of several demon legions in the world of Marton appearing here, together with their adjutants, as if they were going to It's like holding an impromptu meeting here.
But the problem is that Rutherlake himself remembers very clearly that it has never issued an order for the assembly of high-level demon commanders today!
The cunning dreadlord instinctively sensed that something was wrong. He took a few steps back and shouted to the dozens of demon commanders:
"Why are you here? Who told you to come?!"
"it's me!"
In the slightly chaotic questioning, a cold voice answered the lord's doubts. All the demons looked back, and saw the high-ranking warlock Oresis wearing a fiery red dress coming from another entrance of the star port. Come on a stroll.
This high-ranking female demon was swaying, holding a pocket watch in one hand, and a storage ring that was becoming more and more refined in the other hand.
"I have sent an invitation to them, and I want to announce a very important and urgent news to you all here!"
The Daughter of Flame shouted to the high-ranking demons in front of her:
"A message that is closely related to all the demons of Mardon!"
"what do you want to say in the end?"
The highest local officer was appointed as Marton Commander because he knelt and licked all the way. Cassanatyr's loyal henchman Russelek spread his wings and looked at the female demon in disgust. He should have expelled her directly. Go out, but considering the existence of the war lord Gorelix, who has a very high force value behind him and is loyal to the Deceiver, on the bright side, it must give the Deceiver's envoy a little face.
So the fear demon king scolded impatiently:
"You don't have the authority to summon the commander at all, now, say what you want to say, and get out of my place!"
This disrespectful remark did not make the high-ranking warlock Aureses feel angry. In fact, the eyes of the flame girl did not move away, but stayed on the pocket watch in her hand, as if the thing caught her All the will was sucked into it, and at the moment when a certain pointer returned to zero, this pretty female demon suddenly raised her head, and a strange and sinister smile appeared on her face.
It resembled the attitude of the great lord when he sneered!
Under the watchful eyes of all the demon commanders, including Lathelake and Gorelix, the high-ranking warlock Aureses held the storage ring in the other hand and threw it into the crowd of demon commanders. Amidst the shocking flash of silver sparks, her hoarse and crazy voice resounded on the steel ground, as sharp as the howl of the Banshee:
"The important news is..."
"Everyone... the time has come, it's time to hit the road!"
"boom"
