"Such pure dark energy, filled with the scent of death and destruction. You've already embarked on the path of death. In other words, your energy level is demigod-level, which is the fundamental reason why you've always been able to challenge opponents of higher levels. After all, even the protagonist has to abide by the basic rules." Lin Yang said casually, looking at the expressionless and cold-faced Xiao Sa opposite him.
Having said that, he picked up the massive hammer and charged forward. The hammer emitted a blue light, creating fine spatial rifts wherever it went. From a distance, it looked like a black hole. Anyone who didn't know better would think Lin Yang was wielding a black hole and battling Arthas.
Seeing this, Arthas remained calm. He narrowed his eyes, carefully examined Lin Yang's hammer, and after glancing at Lin Yang a few more times, he drew a preliminary conclusion.
We can't beat them!
This guy's armor and hammer are no less powerful than my Frostmourne. The energy within him is also very high-level, comparable to my death energy.
In this situation, even if we win by using conventional means, we will be severely depleted, losing less than one-tenth of our strength. It is completely unnecessary and not worthwhile.
Therefore, it's time to unleash the cheat code!
With that thought, he raised Frostmourne high, and at the same time, Little Sa opened his mouth and began to mutter some words that Lin Yang had never heard before. It sounded somewhat like orc language, but it was different.
Seeing this, Lin Yang was somewhat puzzled. He subconsciously glanced at Xiao Sa's sea of fortune. Sure enough, it churned again, flashing with a deep purple light.
However, despite being very curious, I'm not afraid! Within my own sea of consciousness, the "Detailed Explanation of the Divine Path" constantly suppresses my fortune, making me completely unaffected by the Heavenly Dao consciousness of this world. Therefore, Little Sa's protagonist halo is useless against me. What is there to be afraid of?
"Take this!"
The hammer in his hand instantly began to tumble. Rays of blue light scattered in all directions. Even from a distance, Arthas could feel the immense energy contained within. This hammer blow was not easy to catch! But why should he take it? Thinking this, Arthas smiled.
At the same time, massive amounts of spiritual energy emanated directly from Frostmourne. This spiritual energy was enormous in number and of extremely high quality; as soon as it appeared, it manifested as visible white ripples, completely enveloping an area of several hundred feet in radius.
More importantly, the white ripples directly attacked Lin Yang, heading straight for his brain. Countless streams of mental energy directly assaulted his sea of consciousness.
With a loud clang, like Mars colliding with Earth, these spiritual energies crashed into him. Lin Yang felt as if he had hit a wall, his head suddenly going numb.
Fortunately, Lin Yang's sea of consciousness contained numerous treasures, and a mere half-crippled demigod-level expert was unable to directly invade Lin Yang's sea of consciousness.
"The Lich King?! Ner'zhul!!! Trying to ambush? No way! Arthas, you're getting worse as you get older."
The white ripples before his eyes were actually Ner'zhul's own doing. Countless streams of mental energy were forcefully assaulting Lin Yang's brain in the most straightforward and simple way.
"Huh, you actually know my name? How did you know? Anyway, it doesn't matter, as long as I catch you." Suddenly, a withered, dry voice came directly from Frostmourne.
At the same time, a powerful black energy, using Frostmourne as its tool, was continuously transmitted from the Frozen Throne, countless miles away.
Then, Arthas's aura expanded at a visible speed, like an inflating balloon.
Legendary late game!
Legendary late-stage peak!
Legendary peak!
However, this was not the end; he soon reached the level of a half-step demigod!
"Hehe, I have a few words of 'mmp' that I'm not sure if I should say!"
This must be the legendary protagonist's halo, right? Ner'zhul, in terms of strength, is a fifth-tier demigod-level expert. Although, he can't defeat Deathwing, the Old Gods, Archimonde, or Kil'jaeden.
Even though he was nothing but trash compared to these giants, he did have one powerful advantage: his mental strength, which was extremely strong.
How did Kel'Thuzad fall from grace? He was hypnotized and brainwashed by someone on a different continent every day until he started to doubt his own existence. Then he went to the continent of Nordsen for a spontaneous trip, and that's how he fell from grace.
Such powerful mental energy constantly assaulted his brain. It was only because Lin Yang had a magical artifact protecting him that he was not afraid of any external mental energy. If a legendary expert, even a legendary peak expert like Lothar, came, he wouldn't fare much better.
However, at that moment, Arthas made his move. Although such powerful mental energy couldn't directly affect Lin Yang, there was still an indirect influence, and quite a bit at that.
Just like now, Lin Yang felt his head was a little numb, and at the same time, he was surrounded by countless voices, some tempting, some threatening, and some involving holding hands or more. Meanwhile, fragments of images also appeared in front of his eyes from time to time.
Well, how should I put it? Although there was no real damage, it easily distracted Lin Yang during a major battle. He couldn't concentrate, and sometimes his attention would even wander slightly.
This is already quite serious. Especially for Arthas on the other side, who, due to the Lich King, shares vision and has a mental boost, essentially having access to the entire map. Even without any weaknesses, he would have the advantage, let alone the fact that he already has weaknesses.
Ta-da!
Hammer and sword clashed, the blue hammer and the blue Frostmourne colliding repeatedly under their control. What they emitted weren't sparks, but small spatial rifts filled with an aura of destruction.
Lin Yang is well-equipped and has excellent weapons, resulting in high attack and defense. He also carries a large quantity of highly effective pills, making him a legendary "pay-to-win" warrior!
With Frostmourne in hand, Arthas is essentially having a personal grandfather figure, even though this grandfather is actually an orc shaman. Furthermore, because of the sword, he can draw upon Ner'zhul's power at any time, thereby indirectly mobilizing the entire Scourge army.
Therefore, the state of Blue Infinity appeared. At the same time, since he was essentially a corpse, or rather, an undead state, it didn't matter if his physical body was damaged. With Frostmourne, no matter how severe the injury to his body, he could recover instantly.
Therefore, if Lin Yang is a player who relies on real money (paying to win), then Arthas is a player using cheats. It's really hard to say who will win when real money clashes with cheats.
With a snap, Lin Yang was struck by the sword. The ethereal blue Frostmourne was quite beautiful. In Arthas's hands, it became even more graceful and elegant. Although there were no fancy moves, it often achieved incredible effects from unbelievable angles. After all, it was a map-clearing technique!
However, the result was quite disappointing. Not even a spark was ignited by the sword strike. Lin Yang was completely unharmed!
"Hehe, since that's the case, let's trade injuries!" Looking at himself, completely unharmed, Lin Yang said with a mix of lingering fear and excitement.
With that, he picked up the sledgehammer and, without any regard for technique, smashed it directly at Arthas's head.
I'm opening the full map!
I'm going to smash my head!
My swordsmanship is unparalleled!
I'm going to smash my head!
I have a personal grandpa!
I'm going to smash my head!
