Captain Jack of Azeroth

Chapter 288 Ashbringer

The undead and paladins around the two were pushed away, and the two were also pushed back a few steps by the shock waves caused by the collision of the two energies.

Everyone looked at the two in astonishment. They didn't expect that they could possess such powerful strength.

The two were evenly matched, but neither of them was willing to admit defeat. They pushed their feet hard and rushed towards each other again, swinging their weapons at the enemy.

"Dangdangdang——"

The two of them moved faster and faster, and the shock waves that erupted from the intersection of their weapons continuously pushed back the surrounding undead and paladins. Soon, they were the only two left on the battlefield.

Paladins can only cast spells at the undead remotely across the battlefield, but their spellcasting ability is much worse than that of priests, so the speed of killing the undead is very slow.

Moreover, the undead were not idle either, and the necromancers were also casting spells against the paladins. Fortunately, the paladins were protected by the holy light, and the necromancers could not harm them at all before the holy light was exhausted.

All we can say is that these necromancers are just lich apprentices. If they were replaced by those battle-hardened liches, I'm afraid the paladins would suffer heavy losses.

Nathanos felt that, looking at the strange situation on the battlefield, he couldn't help but twitch his mouth.

He waved his hand quickly, asking the musketeers and grenadiers to go up.

"Fire!"

At the command, the musketeers opened fire and the grenadiers threw bombs quickly.

The underground space was narrow, and bullets flew across the room, leaving the undead with no place to hide. Even if they could not cause fatal damage to the undead, they could still harass the necromancers to cast spells. The bombs exploded as soon as they fell, and the energy from the explosions of multiple bombs collided back and forth, instantly squeezing the bodies of the undead into powder. Even the necromancers who were protected by magical energy had their bodies dispersed and turned into ghosts.

Almost in an instant, the only undead left in the room was Marduk in black.

All the musketeers immediately aimed at Marduk in black, wanting to concentrate their fire to kill him.

But unfortunately, the black sword in the hands of Marduk in black seemed to have infinite energy and blocked all the bullets.

Nathanos gritted his teeth when he saw this. He was most reluctant to face such an enemy, as it was like a dog biting a hedgehog and he had no idea where to start.

Alessandro looked very unhappy. He thought he was very powerful, but he couldn't even deal with an undead. The help of the musketeers made him feel humiliated. But he couldn't vent his anger on the allies, so he could only vent it on the enemy.

"what--"

Alessandro roared, and the holy light on his body suddenly burst out, and his whole body was enveloped by infinite holy light.

He raised the Ashbringer and slashed at the black-clad Marduk with all his might.

Marduk in black swung his sword to fight back, trying to repel Alessandro once again.

However, this time he miscalculated.

The two swords collided, and a violent energy shock erupted. Alessandro was knocked back a few steps, while Marduk in black was knocked out, and the black sword in his hand broke, continuously emitting the power of death.

"This... is impossible! My magic sword..."

Alessandro rushed over and said in a cold voice: "No one is unbeatable! You are no exception!" As he spoke, he raised the Ashbringer and stabbed it into the chest of Marduk in black. Endless holy light suddenly burst out, burning Marduk in black into ashes, and then formed a holy light storm, purifying all the death power coming out of the black sword.

Everyone looked at the broken sword. This sword could fight the Ashbringer for such a long time. It must not be an ordinary magic sword. Unfortunately, it is broken now.

Alessandro said: "Take this sword to the Light's Hope Chapel and seal it, so that it won't harm the world again in the future."

In this magical world, the dead can be resurrected and broken swords can naturally be reforged.

Nathanos did not object. Even if Jack was here, he would not stop the Paladins from taking it away. Because even Jack could not deal with this magic sword, even if it was broken.

Watching the Paladin put away the magic sword, Alessandro raised the Ashbringer, "Continue the attack!"

The Silver Hand swept through the entire Scholomance Academy and finally faced the final leader here, the Dark Dean Gadin.

The necromancer was skilled in fire magic and teleportation, but his spells were useless against the Silver Hand.

Alessandro rushed into his office, but was teleported to the laboratory using the marks he had made long ago.

He could teleport one person away, but he couldn't teleport all the paladins away. After dodging the Ashbringer, he was hacked to death by the paladins who rushed over.

After taking over the Scholomance Academy, everyone burned all the bodies there. After evacuating from the basement, Jack immediately ordered people to blow it up to prevent the Undead Scourge from using this place again.

"Boom——"

With a loud bang, the entire basement collapsed and everything inside was buried underground.

Jack didn't pay attention to this place, but used the telescope to look towards the northeast. Soon, he found a black spot approaching.

"Everyone aboard, Naxxramas is coming!"

Hearing this, everyone immediately ran towards the Black Pearl. After everyone was on board, Jack immediately launched the Black Pearl into the air.

At this time, Naxxramas was already nearby. Without the demons, the Lich King could command his troops more easily. Conscious command was the highest level of command, convenient and fast. If the Lich King's command ability was not so limited, the undead army would have completely destroyed the Kingdom of Lordaeron.

After all, the Lich King was not born a warrior, he was a shaman. In Draenor, shamans were spellcasters who communicated with the spirits of their ancestors, and when there was no war, they did not participate in hunting.

When the demons enslaved the orcs, Ner'zhul was already old. In addition, he was highly respected, so he basically did not appear on the battlefield. After the orc army was defeated, he had to force the duck to take the position of commander himself. As a result, the orcs, who had powerful warriors, were beaten back by the Alliance expeditionary force and had no power to fight back.

If it weren't for the fusion of some of Arthas's memories, the Lich King's command ability would still be at the level of a rookie. Arthas's memories are not complete, and he is still very young. No matter how good his command talent is, it still needs combat experience to support it. Therefore, even if he has integrated Arthas's memories, the Lich King's command ability is not that good.

However, he still had self-awareness. After returning to Lordaeron, he delegated the command of the army to Kel'Thuzad.

Although Kel'Thuzad's command ability is not necessarily that good, he knows who has good command ability. After all, most of the undead army comes from humans, and Kel'Thuzad has an advantage in this regard.

Therefore, Kel'Thuzad selected four powerful commanders to form the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse to command the army of Naxxramas.
