"Bang!"
The two shields collided together again, and Ymiron's weak body took a step back. Anduin, supported by Anveena Holy Light Power, miraculously blocked the collision. He took three steps back, and then rushed towards Ymiron.
Little Prince's martial arts skills are very solid. When Light Shield in front of him moved away, Windfury was slashed towards Ymiron's arm, but Truthguard's large shield like a door panel blocked Vrykul's arm. Surrounding, the surface of the shield turned slightly, Anduin's body was deflected, and then Vrykul kicked Anduin in front of Light Shield, smashing Light Shield, and kicked Anduin away.
But no injuries.
Vrykul's weakness is not fake, his strength has weakened at this time. Although Combat Techniques has reached its peak in the long years, there is no doubt that he has felt the pressure in the face of the blessed Anduin.
Especially the thick layer of Holy Light made him feel quite troublesome.
"Good fighting spirit... but this alone is not enough!"
Ymiron felt Pain coming from his body, but he gritted his teeth and was unwilling to retreat, not even willing to retreat, and rushed towards Anduin who was getting up.
Just like when he led Mead Vrykul to fight in all directions, on the cold snowfield outside Ulduar, he once made such a crazy attack, and then chopped down those Earthen, weak Earthen.
Dick looked at the scene of Ymiron and Anduin fighting, and he couldn't help but think of the story of Ymiron in his mind. Since this guy held one of Paladin's three Artifacts, Dick's memory of him was still very clear.
Ymiron used to be Vrykul Champion, the most powerful Vrykul Horde tens of thousands of years ago. They even Arrogance wanted to rule the land of the gods, because there was no force in the world that they could conquer.
So they went to Ulduar. Those butchers were killing everything in front of them crazily. Ymiron was the craziest one among them. No matter whether they were young or old, or Warrior, who stood in front of him, they would be ruthlessly chopped into two pieces by him.
His notoriety spread far and wide in that snowfield, and even the Titan Keeperss in Ulduar had heard of him.
Fate is so wonderful that it is hard to imagine that such a bloody butcher would pick up Truthguard one day, but he really did.
No matter how much you like to do something for a long time, you will feel bored, let alone something as cruel as taking your life. Therefore, after a long battle, Ymiron also felt a little tired of killing his opponents, not because he became weak, but because, perhaps after a certain massacre, Vrykul felt that this kind of bullying of the weak could not bring him the glory he deserved.
So in the next "Hunt", facing the old, weak, sick and disabled in Earthen, and facing his ruthless compatriots who were about to raise War Axe, Ymiron hesitated and raised the sword as well.
But instead of slashing at Earthen, he chopped down the surrounding kin who were occupied by death and blood to the ground.
When the frightened Earthen asked him why he wanted to help them, Ymiron revealed the creed he would stick to for the rest of his life.
"Killing for the sake of killing... Conquering for the sake of conquering... There is no glory in such things. They only bring shame and regret... Yes, I regret it. I should live like a Warrior, not a butcher."
"Get away, little bastard!"
The sound of fierce fighting awakened Dick from his memories. He saw the old Warrior, who was being forced by Anduin to give up his defense and had to launch a defensive counterattack. It was not that Ymiron was too weak, but that after being infused with the energy of Anveena, Little Prince's biggest disadvantage had been equalized.
When Anduin gave up maintaining Naaru's Shield and injected the inexhaustible Holy Power in the whole body into Windfury, the golden Longsword carries scorching heat, and every time he swings it, it can even leave a sword mark on the ground. And as the only disciple of Dick, he has learned more than the ordinary Paladin.
Judgment, Hammer of Wrath, Holy Light Blade, and even Holy Power which is very similar to Avenging Wrath broke out, When Little Prince was really shrouded in Charge by Holy Light, even Ymiron could only choose to avoid his edge.
He is old...
But he is not old enough to even lift a sword!
Like an angry old Lion, facing the little Lion Arrogance roaring at him, he chose to continue moving forward.
He is old, his strength is not as strong as before, his bones are shaking under this fierce battle, and his steps are beginning to be shaky, but so what?
Who can destroy a will that is unwilling to surrender to time?
Forward dash, sideways, spin, shield attack!
When Truthguard, who was like a door panel, collided head-on, Little Prince, who had caught a slight flaw, could only retreat, but the next moment, his body was like a baseball being hit. Under the huge impact, the whole person rolled out in embarrassment.
It also brought out a series of exclamations from Lady Anveena.
"Huh... huh..."
This blow caused Ymiron's body to groan unbearably. He held Truthguard with both hands and pressed the shield and Longsword to the ground. He breathed heavily and looked at Anduin who stood up in a panic, with a happy expression in his eyes.
Looking at this scene, Dick had a guess. Maybe he was like this when Ymiron stayed alone in the snowfield of Ulduar and helped Tyr and those Titan-forged who escaped from Ulduar resist the pursuing troops from behind.
That was what happened after Tyr teamed up with Archaedas and Ironaya to steal Disc of Norgannon. Loken was worried that his Betrayal would be discovered. Furiously, an army was launched to destroy Tyr and the escapees, but on the road ahead of Storm Peaks, a tall figure, holding Oathkeeper and leaning on Truthguard, stood in front of the pursuing soldiers.
Those are Flame Giants, Iron Vrykul and Frost Giants, Ymiron of Loken. Here, there are only those Mead Vrykul who follow him E, in Storm Peaks's sky full of snowflakes, two completely disproportionate numbers of armies collided together. That was the most brilliant spark in the story of Tyr.
Evil and justice, lies and Truth.
Ymiron perfectly fulfilled the oath he swore in front of Tyr, fighting to the last man. Yes, in the end, wherever he went, those timid Evil servants could only tremble and run away, even if only Ymiron was left in that crazy army.
But he alone is like an insurmountable wall.
However, when Loken was blocked by the pursuers, he released Evil Deputy of Old Gods. When Ymiron arrived at Eastern Kingdoms all the way, he only saw that cemetery, Tyr's Fall.
Guardians, who symbolizes Order, is dead, but Ymiron still sticks to his oath. He stayed at that tombstone for thousands of years, until he felt the weakness of life, and then set off to find a real Heir for his oath.
Thousands of years have passed, and countless people have come to Tomb of the First Kings holding Oathkeeper, but no one can get the recognition of Ymiron.
Maybe this powerful Warrior didn't find a suitable heir, he just didn't want to admit that he was old, that's all.
"Come! The last blow, come!"
Ymiron slapped Oathkeeper on Truthguard's shield, making a crisp impact sound. He was panting, and his body came to the end of the long wait. He only looked forward to a final, hearty battle before this oath was transferred.
No matter life or death, no matter victory or defeat!
Anduin was also aroused the boy's unique Pride. The blow just hit his defenseless body. Although Holy Power was flowing, no matter whether it was Dick Among Holy Power, or Anveena, the effect of Healing is too low, so right now, his nose is bruised and his face is swollen, and there is still the taste of blood in his mouth.
But little Lion doesn't care about this. No matter it's Arena of Feralas or Kun-Lai Summit of Pandaria, there is no place that can give him this kind of passion that only a real battle can bring.
Little Prince grasped the hilt of Windfury's sword with both hands, and once again encouraged the endless Holy Power that Anveena brought to him. Like the shining saint Warrior, Warrior strode towards Ymiron who was standing still.
Seeing this scene, Dick's eyes widened. From Anduin's Holy Light, he felt a trace of the essence of power. It seemed that this battle brought Little Prince much more than he imagined.
He moved his shoulders. After this blow, this battle will be over. It is time for him to leave here. There are many things in Broken Isles that are worthy of him to find, and he does not have much time. After all the soldiers of Stormheim are transferred to Borean Tundra, he will join the sequence of Northern Expedition.
The goal is of course not Arthas. To be precise, the ultimate goal is not Arthas, Ulduar and Yogg-Saron. That is the real headache for Dick.
Thinking for just a moment, the roaring Anduin and the roaring Ymiron had already collided together in the two groups of light. The light merged, expanded, and finally exploded. With a light collision sound, Oathkeeper flew far away in the sky and landed upside down at the feet of Dick.
It kept wailing, as if it was worried about its previous master. It wasn't until Dick's hand touched the hilt that its wailing slowly subsided, and Dick even felt a hint of obedience from it.
Maybe if he wants, he can also participate in this Trial... But, it's not necessary.
Paladin stepped forward, and the overturned Holy Light mist exploded at the last moment, rendering the hall extremely spectacular. Wherever Dick went, Holy Light gently parted, as if to make way for his king.
"Call"
Dick's shoulders sank, and Anveena sat there, holding her shoulders, looking unhappy.
"Idiot, your disciple is even stupider than you! With the power of my master, he still can't beat that old man."
"He's just a kid."
Dick shook his head, bent down, and parted the golden mist. Ymiron and Anduin fell to the ground. Neither of them had any obvious wounds. They just lay on both sides gasping for air. Ymiron's condition was worse. Dick helped him up, and then threw out a Holy Light Chains, also grabbed Anduin from the ground.
"Did he pass Trial?"
Dick asked.
"Ahem... he will become a good Warrior in the future."
Ymiron closed his eyes, "Now let me see your promise!"
Paladin shrugged and helped Ymiron walk into the Lightning Portal beside him. "As you wish, Warrior like you shouldn't die in bed. The battlefield is your destination. Rest there for a while. When you wake up, there will be more wars waiting for you to participate!"
Anveena stayed in Tomb. She became the size of an adult, and then held Oathkeeper and Truthguard stuck on the ground in her hands. Obviously, these two weapons did not recognize it, so what fell into Anveena's hands was just heavy iron.
Sunwell Spirit felt bored after playing for a while. She walked to Anduin who was sitting on the steps and handed Longsword and the shield to Anduin, saying with a look of disgust,
"Here, little fool, your booty!"
Anduin didn't treat this weapon as casually as Anveena. He stood up, wiped his hands, and then took the dimmed Oathkeeper and Truthguard. It was quite heavy to hold, but he felt like his mind was connected.
This was the first trophy in his life, which made him temporarily ignore the meaning of Artifact. However, when Truthguard fell into the hands of Anduin, it did not change its form immediately like Dick's Fire of Justice or Kael'thas's Sunstrider's Pride. It still maintained its original form, which was the form it had in the hands of Ymiron.
In other words, Anduin still failed to gain its recognition, probably because he used a power that did not belong to him to pass Trial. If Artifact wants to fully recognize him, Anduin still has a long way to go.
But this is not important, he still has a lot of time, and his story has only just begun.
Dick left Ymiron who was almost fainting on the platform of Summit of Lei Shen. The power left by Ra-den and Lei Shen rolled here. Here are those Zandalari Trolls Where, Das and Demitier underwent transformation, their transformation has not yet been completed, but it is nearing the end. When they wake up from Titanic Energy, they will have a completely different future.
And at the moment when Dick crossed over Portal and returned to Tomb, he keenly felt the change in Tomb's breath in just a few minutes. Windfury returned to the palm of his hand, and gold and Silver Light filled the entire dim Tomb at this moment.
He felt threatened!
"Who's there!"
Just as Dick's shout rang out, two thick tentacles, covered with suction cups and Evil cuticles, and covered with Gray's shadow power, pierced Tomb of Kings's ground on the left and right. They were so huge that they completely covered the space for Dick to dodge.
Then Paladin heard the exclamation from Little Prince,
"Help! No..."
"Ugh!"
The golden Cross-shaped Star lit up in the darkness, as if it had brought a cross blade in the air, completely slicing the huge terrifying tentacles, and the whole body was wrapped in Order and Lightning power's Dick rushed out, just in time to see the scene where Anduin and Anveena were dragged into the darkness by the tentacles of Abyss.
"Helya! Bastard! Put them down!"
Dick waved his left hand furiously, and the silver-purple Lightning was beating on his arm, and in an instant it gathered into a line of Lightning Storm, the energy mixed with Order and Holy Light was like a silver Holy Sword rising into the sky. The moment it was swung, it pierced through the thick earth above the head, and then chopped down all the way, turning the entire Tomb of the First Kings into ruins.
"Hahaha... this little cutie will become my most powerful Shadow Angel, thank you for the gift you brought me... ah!!"
Helya's shrill wails mixed with the pain of tail-cutting disappeared into the roar of the mountain's breaking and the shadow-like darkness that faded away. As this scene faded, The Halls of Valor, the Mists on the sea, and the Necromancer in the fog quickly dissipated at this moment, as if they were back in the Hell where they should be.
Purple thunder covered most of the sky in Stormheim in an instant, and rushed straight up from the ruins of Shieldrest Isle, like a bursting thunder pillar.
After the Mists that quickly dissipated on the Sea, a touch of Anger Lightning pierced the sky.
