Chapter 338: Embarking on that road
These two strange creatures not far from Kel'Thuzad exuded a familiar corpse stench, but unlike Kel'Thuzad's failed experiment, these strange creatures seemed very complete. Apart from those uncomfortable elements, they were just like living creatures. These auxiliary creatures still retained their strength and coordination when they were alive. Such creatures would never be weak. The one who created them must be a wizard who has reached the pinnacle of undead skills. Could he be the owner of the voice that has always appeared in his mind?
Before Kel'Thuzad could figure out what was going on, the two spider monsters came towards him. Kel'Thuzad did not move, neither trying to escape nor resisting. He was so tired that even raising his arms was difficult. To Kel'Thuzad's surprise, the two spider monsters walked up to him, bent their six lower limbs, and made a move like they were bending over and clearing a path for him. Kel'Thuzad was surprised
, but he did not want to find out what was going on. He pointed to the camp, which would be warm there. However, after standing there for a while, his two feet were frozen and he could not pull them out.
The two spiders seemed to see Kel'Thuzad's difficulties. One of them lay on the snow, and the other walked behind Kel'Thuzad. It grabbed Kel'Thuzad's upper body with its two front paws, and used its remaining claws to scrape the ice and snow at Kel'Thuzad's feet to loosen the ice, pulled Kel'Thuzad out, and then placed him on the other spider's back.
Kel'Thuzad was very surprised. The two spiders did not behave like dead creatures at all. If it weren't for the mucus from the mouth of the spider that he dug out dripping onto his shoulder, Kel'Thuzad would have thought it was a living creature.
The spiders carried Kel'Thuzad along, and Kel'Thuzad felt much calmer. Their behavior confirmed his guess that the voice in his head must have created them. The voice in his head needed him, and he was getting closer and closer to his own wish! Kel'Thuzad touched the
greenish mucus on his shoulder and sniffed it. It smelled sour, but he liked it very much.
The camp was just a sentry camp. Two spiders took him through it and around to a cave. At the entrance of the cave, the two spiders stopped and made an inviting gesture. Kel'Thuzad moved his ankles. He could walk after sitting on their backs. Kel'Thuzad jumped down and walked into the cave.
Although it was also very cold inside the cave, it was much better than outside. After twists and turns in the cave, Kel'Thuzad turned left and right and came to a bright hall. There were spider monsters everywhere. They didn't care about Kel'Thuzad's arrival and continued to do what they were doing.
Kel'Thuzad looked around. In the center of the hall was a somewhat broken spider statue. Kel'Thuzad walked over. It was a very old statue. It seemed that these creatures had lived on this land for many years. After warming up, Kel'Thuzad's mind became bright again. He remembered an ancient book he had seen before. There was a similar statue on it. This statue was the god of the Nerubian Spider-Man. So are these spider-men the Nerubian Spider-Man? But aren't the Nerubian Spider-Man very powerful? Azjol-Nerub has ruled the entire underground of Northrend since its establishment, and it has been like this for thousands of years.
A conjecture formed in Kel'Thuzad's mind. The wizard who created them conquered this underground kingdom and successfully turned them all into undead creatures. All the wealth here will definitely belong to him. The feeling of ecstasy filled Kel'Thuzad's body. He was about to master the greatest spell! As long as he could learn this spell, he would pay any price. There was technology, funds, and a large number of successful finished products here. It was the best testing ground!
When Kel'Thuzad imagined his future life, the Nerub spiders in front of him stood on both sides, lowered their heads, and respectfully made way. A huge creature walked into Kel'Thuzad's sight somewhat clumsily. Kel'Thuzad calmed down and looked at him. It was a strange creature with the characteristics of a beetle and a spider. Its huge body was tied with layers of bandages. It was a dead spirit like the guards outside. It can be seen that it had suffered too many injuries when it was alive. Even though it was a dead thing, Kel'Thuzad could feel the strong power in it. With its huge body, Kel'Thuzad felt instinctive fear. Although it was well concealed, Kel'Thuzad knew that even if he was in his prime, it would be difficult to defeat this creature, and it would be even more difficult to turn it into an undead creature.
The creature stopped and spoke in a low voice, as if the creature in front of him was an empty shell. The voice reverberated back and forth inside: "The master is waiting for your arrival, mage. I am Anub'arak, the crypt lord."
Anub'arak's words were simple and easy to understand, but they still made Kel'Thuzad shudder. The buzzing sound hit his head. Was this a show of power? But what was even more terrifying was that this undead who called himself Anub'arak was actually intelligent! He could speak for himself!
Kel'Thuzad calmed down while tidying up his clothes: "Yes, I came here to learn the art of the undead from your master."
Anub'arak lowered his head and looked at Kel'Thuzad. Kel'Thuzad frowned. The big beetle in front of him gave him the feeling that he wanted to eat him as dinner.
Kel'Thuzad asked him very uncomfortably: "Can I meet your master?"
Anub'arak's eyes that wanted to eat disappeared, and his voice rumbled out: "You will meet him at the right time. From the beginning of your research until now, you have been wholeheartedly devoted to the pursuit of beautiful knowledge, which is very admirable. However, your experience as a mage is still insufficient, and you are not ready to serve your master now."
These words made Kel'Thuzad feel very uncomfortable, and he had to refute!
"Before I came here, I was an important member of the Dalaran Kirin Tor, one of the best mages in the world, and the magic I possess is beyond your imagination! You think I'm not ready? Then ask your master to give me a mission! I'm fully prepared, and I'll accept any mission!"
"Well, we'll have a chance to meet."
Anub'arak turned around, shook his butt, and walked into a tunnel with Kel'Thuzad.
