Chapter 536: Falling into a trap
"Hurry, I'm out of mana..."
"what?"
"My mana is almost gone, and these guys are everywhere. I dare say even the safe zones on the map aren't safe... Jump down!"
"Okay... catch me... I'm afraid of heights..."
......
Lorraine held out his hands, concentrating as he prepared to catch the strong-willed young lady...
Unexpectedly, the necromancer Lilith did not forcefully jump over the gap with her physical strength like Lorraine did, but gracefully floated down... accompanied by a levitation spell covering her body, Lilith glided towards Lorraine.
Lilith gently stepped on Lorraine's head and easily walked to the side, leaving Lorraine awkwardly raising his hands.
......
"Wow, impressive, right? That's called Levitation, and I also have Energy Infusion! That move is even more powerful; I spent a fortune to have a Blood Elf priest teach me it... Want to try it out, little Lorraine..."
"As far as I know, your spell doesn't restore mana. [Energy Infusion] only increases casting speed and reduces mana consumption. Only the Druid's [Activate] or my own Evocation are true mana-restoring magic skills... That's right, [Evocation]!"
......
Lorraine remembered the power of [Awakening], immediately raised his hands, concentrated, and silently chanted. A whirlwind comparable to a magical storm enveloped his entire body from above, almost blowing Lilith away...
Lilith pouted: "Ungrateful... They begged me, and I wouldn't even give them the infusion... You, a lousy mage, can only awaken, but I have plenty of mana potions, so I'm not giving you any..."
Lorraine seemed oblivious to Lilith's complaints; he focused all his energy on restoring his magic...
Their attention, however, remained fixed on the stone-jawed monsters that were almost catching up with the two of them. The group of seemingly stupid and clumsy cave-dwelling aliens had crowded to the side of the road, looking bewildered.
Only a few stone jaw hunters tried their best to throw spears, but their aim was poor, and only a few landed on the protruding stone platform where Lorraine and Lilith were...
Even if a few stone spears hit the two of them, Lilith's divine shield could deflect these crude stone spears.
......
Lilith is the younger sister of the vice-president of the Deathspeaker guild, most of whose members are Forsaken...
To form a powerful adventure team, team composition is very important. Not everyone can go it alone like Lorraine... In the world of Azeroth, there are all kinds of monsters and dangers. You need partners of different professions to cooperate and help each other to turn danger into safety and defeat powerful enemies.
As an undead priest, changing to a holy priest is not as easy as it is for ordinary human clergy. The energy of holy light itself has a strong corrosive effect on the undead body. Lilith, who can switch between shadow form and light form, is indeed more powerful and unique than Lorraine imagined.
Priests are typically functional, supportive, or buffing...
In the past, when charging into battle, her brother would be in front, while Lilith would heal and shield him, offer verbal encouragement, and provide emotional support... They had indeed faced many challenges, no fewer than those encountered by Lorraine, and faced a wide variety of enemies, achieving countless feats for the tribe...
The [Death Whisperer] guild has a small membership; it only accepts members who are recommended by other guild members and who seem to have a connection with the group...
Perhaps this small group is also quite selfish, and their style of doing things is similar to that of the Forsaken... They all came from mountains of corpses and seas of blood, and Lorraine underestimated the undead priest Lilith.
......
With the valiant undead warrior Tagore not around, Lilith is quite bored...
When everyone first met Lorraine, they felt that this kid was somewhat special...
Lilith, in particular, felt that Lorraine was neither as carefree as his brother Tagore, nor as composed and wise as the gloomy necromancer Shrek; he had a silly, somewhat endearing, and goofy quality...
The only thing that's puzzling is that, given his character, he was actually the first among the Forsaken recruits of his batch to receive a formal military rank.
And soon after, he was promoted to the new Plaguebringer of Undercity...
Previously, Lilith was quite resentful, dissatisfied with the demented mage Lorraine and the arrogant undead rogue 'Chrysanthemum Tea'... After the trip to Shadowfang Keep, she witnessed the necromancer secrets on Lorraine!
Then came urgent military intelligence concerning the future of the Forsaken and the situation of the Horde: the secret of Operation Stormstorm had somehow been relayed back by Lorraine...
Lilith felt that Lorraine must have an even bigger secret...
She was also curious about what it was about Lorraine that made her so favored by the Queen, chosen as a disciple by Lady Elwin, and wanted by the entire world... The little girl brought Lorraine into the Ragefire Rift this time to witness his abilities, and also specifically to ensure he didn't meet with the Forgotten Saintess, Irene...
Of course, the situation was critical, and hiding in the Shadow Rift was out of necessity.
Lilith re-entered the secret base in Ragefire Chasm, taking advantage of the situation...
Intentional...
She was an outsider, the guild's mascot...
The vice-president's younger sister, Lilith, hates being excluded and not playing with others... This time, catching Lorraine is like finding a good steed, taking her into Ragefire Rift, a place that guild members had explored before but which she was forbidden from entering...
Lilith had always been curious as to why, even though there was a secret base in the Ragefire Rift, her sister Black Lotus wouldn't let her enter it!
Her brother, the undead warrior Tagore, also repeatedly emphasized that Ragefire Rift was dangerous, more dangerous than imagined, and warned against entering...
The meaning of a skull with five swords is simple: it's extremely dangerous!
.......
The rebellious spirit girl suspected there was treasure here... but upon entering, she found nothing but some markings and warnings...
Disheartened, they were suddenly ambushed and broke through the encirclement.
.......
Even after being injured, the undead girl Lilith wasn't in a hurry... She clearly remembered that Lorraine not only possessed the power of an ordinary ice mage, but also an evil, terrifying, handsome, and powerful summoning spell.
Lilith, who was already proficient in shadow magic and holy light spells, was very curious about what kind of power Lorraine was using... and how he had performed many miraculous feats.
Is Lorraine stronger than everyone in the entire [Deathspeaker] guild?
......
As if to confirm the undead girl's conjecture, the spot where she and Lorraine jumped over, amidst the horde of stone-jaw monsters, saw the old shaman with five stripes on his face forcefully push aside his clumsy subordinates and emerge.
Five-Barred Stare frowned at the gap in the wall, grumbling and babble at his tribesmen, seemingly issuing several orders... After the old shaman gave the commands, the Stonejaw Monsters erupted in excited cries, seemingly happy that they hadn't caught Lilith and Lorraine...
Even with so many of their comrades dead, these guys are still excited...
This made Lorraine and Lilith both look up, wondering what Wu Daogang had done.
Lorraine was immediately shocked to hear, "Intruders, you cannot escape. Inside its belly, foreign intruders will only turn to ashes! You are not the first intruders to walk into its trap, nor will you be the last. Praise be to Cho'gall! The Council of the Abyss is everywhere!"
The ugly, hunchbacked, stone-jawed old shaman with white braids could actually speak necromancy...
