Chapter 11 The Arrival of the "Godfather"
Death itself is not frightening; what is frightening is the struggle of being half-dead.
Luo Lin personally felt his apprentice's pain.
Under the scorching holy light, the life force of the undead body was rapidly shrinking, and it was about to turn into a real corpse.
The Scarlet Crusade squad unleashed their musket fire at a leisurely pace.
Furthermore, the novice priest unleashed a holy light magic attack on Lorraine's remains, restricting his movements.
It's still quite a distance from the town of Deathbell.
"Teacher, is this the end?"
Before falling into a coma, Lorraine was in unbearable pain and desperately sought help from the other soul within his body.
Rowling was powerless and remained silent.
The necromancer's frail body was no match for the siege of the Crimson Army.
Even if the necromantic power of the beasts killed at the beginning strengthens some of the body's functions.
The zombie's simple body is unable to withstand attacks from exorcism silver bullets and holy light magic.
If this is really World of Warcraft, then players should be able to resurrect, right?
If you encounter a healer of souls from the other world in the cemetery, you can be resurrected in a weakened state by paying a certain price.
Or, they can transform into a spirit and retrieve their corpse from the shadows, resurrecting on the spot.
Am I still a player? Is this still the world I used to know?
Luo Lin couldn't help but feel a little puzzled.
More than anything, it's a pity.
I thought I could reach the maximum level this time and explore Azeroth again.
Once again, we pass through the Dark Portal, traversing the Outland to explore a different kind of Star Soul.
Fight against the minions of the Void Lords, the Burning Legion of cosmic demons, the Old Gods and their servants.
Experience different landscapes and encounter heroic figures struggling with fate.
Join them to rewrite history, save the people, and seize the world?
Blood and glory.
lok`tar ogar!
Master Bala, Ma Shua Lanorui...
……
With their life force gradually dwindling, Roland estimated that both he and Lorraine's health bars were almost depleted.
On the verge of death…
The ordinary and timid Lorraine remained motionless.
However, Lorin found himself seemingly transformed into a spirit, slowly drifting out from Lorin's mangled body.
Stand aside.
"Lorraine! Are you still there? Don't give up! Stand up, you haven't become a true archmage yet."
"At such a young age, if you become lax and slack off as soon as you encounter setbacks, how can you expect to achieve great things in the future!"
Roland encouraged the master of his body, his own magical apprentice.
The magic apprentice, however, kept his head down and remained silent.
You can still see arrogant, bloodthirsty fanatics around you, raising their arms and shouting.
They stabbed Lorraine's mutilated body with the butts of their guns and swords, cursing as if it were a satisfying act of revenge.
……
The sky was gray, and a chilly mist could be seen spreading through it.
This is the spirit world after a monster dies...
Above Rolin's head was a vortex that constantly absorbed the Yin energy from the earth.
The world around me was gray and hazy, and I could faintly hear all sorts of soft, fragmented murmurs.
It sounded like someone was calling softly, or like the lingering resentment of a ghost.
"You weakling, what are you doing?"
Roland didn't notice the cool voice questioning him; he was lost in a vortex of memories…
……
In a certain version of World of Warcraft, there was a Shadowlands that was said to be the final resting place for souls, where a jailer collected all the sinful and bewildered souls.
They can be understood as the managers of the underworld.
The Shadowlands are home to six Eternals, who, though less powerful than the Titans, form the foundational laws of the Warcraft universe.
They are each responsible for managing the underlying logic of the world; in Rowling's understanding, they are simply tools of the system.
It seems that the Dreadlord is a subordinate of one of the six Eternals.
They are responsible for disrupting world order and secretly instigating global unrest.
So that their master, Thenas the Great, might become the creator god one day.
……
The Shadowlands is the ninth expansion of World of Warcraft, a world already unfamiliar to Rolin.
He only experienced the original, authentic 60s era and The Burning Crusade.
Wrath of the Lich King, level 80. Forgot to open it, I'm at work...
Cataclysm, Level 85. The familiar world is gone…
【Mists of Pandaria】, Level 90. I'd like to go check it out, but I don't have time.
Warlords of Draenor, Level 100. Not interested…
Legion, Level 110. Not interested...
Battle for Azeroth, Level 120. Not interested...
Shadowlands has been compressed to level 50-60, while Dragonlands has been upgraded to level 70. What the heck, is this a single-player world?
These subsequent worlds became unfamiliar, and Rowling's memories remained stuck in the Burning Crusade.
……
The shattered Outland was once the homeland of the orcs, but Draenor was shattered into pieces by the Burning Legion's invasion.
Demon Hunter Illidan, wielding the Warglaives of Azzinoth, flew towards the skies above the Black Temple.
He shouted, "I have been imprisoned for ten thousand years and banished from my homeland... You are courting death!"
Illidan said you're not ready yet...
And that was really it...
But in my memory, there are still fragments of continents floating in space from other realms, and a beautiful, otherworldly starry sky.
Rolin could never forget the mountains and rivers of Nagrand, the floating islands in the sky, and the grasslands.
That place where Sal lived in seclusion and grew wheat!
……
At that time, Azeroth was in a chaotic phase after being ravaged by both the Burning Legion and the Scourge.
The Shadowlands' dark hand had long ago inserted itself into the core of Azeroth.
The Lich King and his minions are merely peripheral figures.
The Forgotten Ones are the free souls who have defected from the ranks of the younger brothers; they are the younger brothers among the younger brothers.
Commonly known as the youngest of the youngest.
Thinking about it, this is really embarrassing. As a new recruit in a lowly organization, he has no value or status whatsoever.
The Shadowlands have blasphemed the Queen!
Enraged, Rowling wanted nothing more than to storm into the Caverns of Time!
Rewrite history!
The death and awakening of an ordinary soul will not affect the course of the world.
Perhaps this journey will end and I will return to real life.
……
"Hey, hey, hey, human! Can't you hear me?!"
While still lost in reverie, the spirit of Rolin suddenly heard an angry voice beside him.
Could it be an angel?
Or a healer of the soul?
Legend has it that after a shaman levels up, he can become a soul traveler who traverses the realms of the living and the dead.
It can save the souls of the dead.
Could there be a tribe's logistical support team here who retrieves corpses?
If so, then we are saved.
"Did you hear that, Lorraine? Are you still there? We Forsaken can be resurrected even after we die. As long as a spirit healer casts a resurrection spell on us, we can die and be resurrected repeatedly, haha. Players are invincible..."
"No, you foolish humans."
"what?"
Rowling turned around to look for the source of the sound. He searched around but found nothing.
"Could it be a ghost?"
"Don't bother looking, you can't see me."
This scene seems so familiar...
It's just like rehashing old ideas in subsequent versions...
Luo Lin felt something was off, but he could only go along with it.
"Who are you? You're not the angel sister! Could you be the Loa? Bwonsamdi, the god of death from troll legends? Hakkar, the god of blood?"
……
"The answer is close. The Loa are just a group of high-ranking beings of the natural life system. The Wild Gods are just slightly special ones. As for me, I am the Will of Death, the source of the power of death. In my eyes, they are nothing but chickens and dogs."
"I am the supreme destroyer of all realms!"
"This body was given to you by me. You should thank me. Strictly speaking, I have given you a second life. You can call me 'godfather'!"
Luo Lin was startled upon hearing this.
He was immediately enraged:
"Thank you my ass! I've become a spirit power bank. Trapped in this decaying body, even if I were reborn and transmigrated, this shouldn't be the case."
"Ah, yes, yes, you guessed it. It took me quite a bit of effort to extract your soul. You know, even for me, the Destroyer of All Realms, it's very troublesome to cross the boundary between life and death to extract a useless soul. If it weren't for the fact that ordinary souls like yours are worthless to them, I might not have succeeded."
"What do you mean? You brought me here to be used as an experiment?"
The Will of Death, who called himself the Destroyer of All Realms, laughed wildly. Rolin seemed to see an arrogant, madman standing in the sky, staring at his insignificant self.
"Let's make a deal."
"what?"
The Will to Death said with interest, “I know you want to ask, but don’t. I know you want to say, but don’t. I know you’re in a hurry, but don’t.”
"Fuck you!"
Rowling had no idea where this guy had learned such nonsense.
“You have no choice. I brought your true body with me, but I cut it into countless pieces and placed them in every corner of this world, including those so-called gods of the wilderness, gods of nature, supreme gods, elemental lords, five-colored dragons, and ancient gods, each receiving a piece. The Titans and guardians also received a share.”
"Didn't you want to control your real body? Go ahead, go find your body again. Heart, liver, spleen, lungs, kidneys, large and small intestines, hands, feet, eyes, ears, tongue, tsk tsk tsk, I've separated them very carefully. Don't you like this world? Then go and deal with those troublesome jinxes for me and take back the body that originally belonged to you."
"To give you some motivation, I've prepared a prize for you. When you finally put your body back together, you might be able to return to your original world!"
Rolin had not yet digested the information provided by the Destroyer of All Realms.
He was suddenly pulled back to Lorraine's body lying on the ground, a deathly force filling his broken body.
The almost extinguished flame of Lorraine's soul was rekindled, but this time it seemed different.
The power of death and the flame of life within his body began to intertwine.
Lorraine's eyes burned, revealing blue, icy eyes.
Roland discovered that he seemed to have gained control of his body; powerful magic surged from his spirit, instantly infusing his undead body, and the will of the undead awakened.
Luo Lin jumped up from the ground, spread his arms, and roared to the sky.
A giant demonic skull roared from above, its voice echoing throughout the entire Tirisfal Glades.
……
The surrounding blood-red soldiers scattered in terror, as if struck by a fear effect...
