25. The end of the dungeon
"Fuck off!"
With a scream of rage, a blazing fireball flew from Julie. The magic thread burst out of her hand and smashed into the body of the blue monster that was rushing towards her in front of her eyes.
The powerful magic of the high-level mage made this fireball full of lethality, and the explosive and unstable structure inside exploded when it hit the chest of the stone palatin, and the scorching and noisy flames ignited the ugly stone palatin monster in an instant.
But this monster made up of stones and rough skin was not so easy to kill, and even when its mane was ignited, it still roared wildly, clutching sharp bloodstained stones and smashing them at the dwarf mage in front of them.
Julie's figure was shrouded in the light of teleportation, and when the light dissipated, she had already appeared on a small platform that was condescending, and the little mage waved the ice crystal staff in his hand, and the arcane missile that shone with purple light, the impact and penetration of the arcane missile burst out from the magic pattern blooming in front of her eyes, smashing the stone palatin monster that was ignited all over her body and retreating.
"Wow"
The last arcane arrow pierced the heart of the stone palatin, and the monster let out a final wail as the rubble flew and fell to the ground, not knowing what to do.
But that didn't mean Julie was out of danger, and on the street in front of her, the gnomes who didn't have time to escape had been killed by the stone palatins that poured out of their nests, and there was blood and stumps everywhere, and the smell and the tragic situation in front of her made Julie almost faint.
More than 20 stone palatins roared frantically, their misshapen souls eager to kill and destroy, and after killing all the survivors, they turned their gaze to the dwarf mage standing on a small platform.
Seeing the monsters gather together, Julie. The magic thread clenched the staff in her hand, she forced herself to calm down, and when the stone palatin began to charge at her, Julie let out a coquettish cry, accompanied by the surge of physical magic, and the cold frost froze all the more than 20 stone palatins in front of her to the ground in an explosive manner.
Julie's left hand with a black demonic glove clenched fiercely, and the next moment, the last surge of magic burst out from the ground in the form of ice spikes, piercing those ugly stone palatinous monsters, but the monster's vitality was strong, and being pierced was not enough to kill them.
The gnome mage chanted another magic, and as the stone palatins shattered the ice and regained their freedom, a window torn open by magic appeared at the top of the underground city, and a flaming black meteorite smashed down from the window.
"Boom"
The entire block shook in the thump, and in front of Julie's eyes, the otherwise smooth road had a terrible depression, and beneath the heavy meteorite were the monsters that had been completely crushed.
"Where did these monsters come from?"
The panting dwarf mage wiped the sweat from her forehead, she blessed herself with an eagle eye, stood on the platform, and looked into the distance, three blocks away, the breach in the wall had been extended into a dark tunnel, and a steady stream of stone palatins poured out of it, like an ugly tide of blue, escaping towards the block in front of her.
The wires in the street were torn off, sparks flew in all directions, and some flammable materials were ignited, and there were flames and smoke everywhere, and in that street, there were many corpses of slain gnomes.
It's like a nightmare.
"Sister!"
Julie looked at the southwest block, which was one of the neighborhoods close to the stone palatinous monster's attack, and her sister Ella lived there, thinking of Ella's current poor physical condition, Julie gritted her teeth, quickly jumped off the platform, and violently smashed open the warehouse on the street with fireballs, and a moment later, a buzzing mechanical bird with black smoke from the exhaust pipe rushed out with Julie, rushing to the place where Ella was at a galloping speed.
On the other hand, as the race with the highest IQ in Azeroth, the gnomes had a complete disaster response system when they first established Nomorigan, and at the moment when the stone palatin monster dug through the wall and rushed into Nomorigen to massacre, they were obsessed with the research of a new generation of robots. Mecatok got the news right away.
The wisest artisan of the gnomes, who was also the nominal commander of the gnomes, immediately convened a meeting, and after activating the blockade of the entire city, he and his brightest advisors began a discussion about how to protect the people against the stone palatines.
The nervousness of the gnomes was on full display at the meeting, perhaps because the disaster came too suddenly, perhaps because they were frightened, and some councillors suggested that the development of killer robots against the stone palatins should begin immediately, while others advocated opening vents throughout the city to inject poison gas into the air and kill the monsters once and for all.
There are even some cowards who say they want to give up on Nomorigen and run to Ironforge to find the help of their dwarven brothers who are very good at fighting.
"Gentlemen, gentlemen!"
The master craftsman tapped his wrench against the steel table in front of him, and he stopped the whimsical thoughts of the advisors, the master craftsman with extremely cool engineering goggles was no longer young, he had a white beard and a balding hairstyle, and it was said that this was because Mecatok's brain was so full of wisdom that his hair could not grow.
In short, now the clever master craftsman screams:
"Time! Time is of the essence, we don't have enough time to develop a killer robot against the Stone-Palated Monsters, there are 400,000 people in the whole of Nomorigan, we don't have time to evacuate them, the people are bleeding, we can end this nightmare as quickly as possible! ”
"Then we have to have a one-time solution."
The advisor who stood beside the master craftsman was Mecatok's most trusted lieutenant and a clever man with a whimsical mind. Sema Prager, like the master craftsman, he also wore very cool mechanical goggles, and under those black lenses were a pair of nimble beating eyes, and he grabbed his red beard and said to the others:
"We can lure those monsters into an enclosed area and kill them all at once!"
"But we don't have such weapons!"
A dwarf councillor brandished his hammer and shouted: "After the war of the alliance is over, we have suspended research on weapons of mass destruction!" ”
"Nope! We have! ”
Intrigued by the advice of his companion, the master craftsman opened his mechanical goggles, his wise eyes shining with a touch of madness, and he pointed to the map of the dungeon in front of him, and said to the others:
"Remember? The batteries buried further down produce a lot of radioactive sewage every day, and we store them in tanks in all corners of the city, as long as we can lure those monsters to the closed room, and then blow up the water pipes with bombs, and the evaporated radioactive liquid and rays will flood them... We've experimented that even the strongest trolls can't resist radiation, and these monsters certainly can't! ”
"But radiation is deadlier to us! Mecatok, you're crazy! ”
The gnomes were in an uproar, objecting to the venture, but as time went on, more and more reports of casualties were reported in front of the gnome councillors, and Advisor McNeil slapped the table and asked loudly:
"You rotten bureaucrats! Our people are dying! If you don't agree with me and Mecatok, come up with a solution! The people need us! ”
The master craftsman raised his arm and looked at the watch on his wrist, he shook his head and said in an unquestioning voice:
"Now, vote! I don't want to waste any more time! ”
"Huh"
In the silent silence, many councillors raised their hands, more than half of them, so that soon, the voices of the great craftsmen were remembered in the loudspeakers that were wrapped around the city:
"Brave people of Nomorigan, we are about to take urgent measures against the monster invasion, and now, everyone go back to their homes, or hide in closed and safe places! Note! Don't go out of the room until the alarm is off! Don't panic when you hear explosions or the ground shakes! Bring your own gas mask and wait for the news of our victory! ”
The same voice is in Julie. The dwarf mage was very close to her sister's quarters, but to her despair, it looked like it was surrounded by stone palatines.
And just before Julie's mechanical bird completely loses power, she sees another purple-robed dwarf mage building a large magic circle in the street, and around him, the corpses of the slain stone palatins are everywhere.
"Master Millhouse!"
Julie shouted in surprise, she recognized the dwarf mage in front of her, it was a member of the famous Mana Storm family, ** Master Milhouse. Mana Storm, his family is the most famous mage family among the gnomes, and it also enjoys a high reputation in Dalaran.
And Milhouse, who was arranging the magic array. Mana Storm heard a shout behind him, and he jerked his head to see the dwarf mage Julie running towards him.
"Master, I didn't expect to meet you here."
Julie and Milhouse greeted each other, and the latter replied in a gnome-style shrill voice:
"Of course I'm here, my home is here... Hell, my dear Millie Ficent just ran away from home, and this is what happened in the house, and she's going to beat me up when she comes back, okay, stop talking nonsense, come and help, little girl. ”
The dwarf mage wearing a gorgeous ** master robe beckoned to Julie familiarly, and then busied himself with the magic array under his feet again, which was a complicated and cumbersome esoteric magic circle that Julie couldn't understand at all, so she cautiously asked:
"Master Milhouse, what is this circle for?"
"Oh! This is the "Super Invincible Improved Group Teleportation Circle" that I just designed! ”
Milhouse patted his chest proudly and said to his compatriots:
"I changed the parameters so that all the monsters I've marked will teleport into the Twisted Void, so what I'm going to do is put a magic mark on those crazy monsters... Wait, I suddenly realized that I needed an assistant to do this! ”
"I'm coming!"
Without saying a word, Julie grabbed the magic ray gun on the ground and ran to the street ahead, shouting:
"I'm going to save my sister, Milhouse, I'm going to mark as many monsters as I can, and when I send the signal, you'll start teleporting!"
"Your sister?"
Milhouse's purple eyes widened, and he looked at Julie, who ran away, and cried out:
"Hey, little girl, there's a wave of necromancy over there, there's a dangerous person over there, don't go over... Oh hell! ”
Julie couldn't hear the warning of Milhouse's jumping feet, and she used teleportation to rush into the neighborhood surrounded by stone palatines, holding a not-so-heavy mana ray gun in her hand, which looked to have been modified and had a great engineering crosshair.
"Bang Bang"
Julie used the Ice Ring to freeze the stone palatins on the ground, then hit them with button-like magic signs in bursts, and she shot wildly as she rushed towards her sister's very remote residence.
The streets along the way are littered with the corpses of the gnomes, and this terrible tragedy makes Julie feel indescribable depression and pain, they don't deserve this, the gnomes just want to hide in their own place and study their own technology, is this also wrong?
"Bang"
The last magic sign was knocked out, Julie threw away the ray gun in her hand, and flicked the magic spark in her hand, and a red sign rushed into the sky, and the next moment, Milhouse, who was standing next to the magic array. The mana storm activated the "Super Invincible Improved Group Teleportation Circle", and purple furious magic surged across the circle, quickly tearing a spatial rift leading to the distorted void around Milhouse.
The stone palatins scattered across the streets screamed, but could not stop the attraction from behind them, and their bodies were pulled into the air as if they were being pulled by invisible ropes, one by one thrown into the manic portal.
And Milhouse looked at this scene, and he leaned on his staff, laughing wildly:
"Who's the fiercest? Who's the best? ”
"I'm the fiercest! Millhouse is the best... Wait, wait! ”
"Boom"
At the moment when the magic was exhausted, the portal made by Milhouse himself did not collapse inwards as he imagined, but instead, like a bomb exploded, the furious magic swept everything around it.
Milhouse himself screamed in terror as he clung to the pole that stood on the ground, and behind him, the fury of magic lured him into the twisted void in a way that was almost like looking for death.
"Don't! No! Help me! Help me! ”
The dwarf mage's voice grew more and more desolate with the little bending of the pole, and finally, at the moment when his hands were loosened, Milhouse. Mana Storm was also swept into his magic circle, and then, along with more than 100 stone palatines, completely disappeared into the streets of Nomorigan.
And on the other side, Julie. The magic thread tried her best in the end of the dungeon, and finally rushed into her sister's house in the pursuit of the stone palatin, but when she looked up, she saw the corpses of the stone palatin monster all over the ground, and among the corpses that were dismembered, there stood a dwarf wearing black heavy armor and dark red eyes... The dwarf had no breath of life on it, and there was even a smell of decay coming from him, which made Julie's cold hair stand on end.
The next moment her sister, the withdrawn Ella. The magic thread appeared in front of her, and she looked at her sister, and a cold smile appeared on the corner of her mouth:
"My dear Julie... I just wanted to go to you. 2k reading network
