Ice is flying around.
Of the three rapidly spinning ice orbs around Jaina, only one remains. The five ice spikes above her head have been used up several times and have reappeared several times.
She killed far more than a hundred Undead!
Now, her gaze was fixed on the tall, beautiful high-ranking Undead mage ahead, and she brandished her staff, her voice carrying the chilling cold of Northrend:
" Frost Bomb!"
A basketball-sized Frost Bomb flew in front of the Undead and then exploded with a bang.
The shattered ice inflicted irreparable damage on the Undead, and the surrounding Undead were also pierced by the flying ice shards. No attack from the Archmage should be underestimated.
Shadows danced wildly, and swords flashed.
Jiang Jie appeared behind the Undead, gripping the " Barov Family Longsword " tightly in both hands, and severed her neck. The sudden burst of Shadow energy severed the connection between her body and soul, granting her eternal liberation.
Jiang Jie sighed softly.
Illucia Barov, the most prized jewel of the Barov Family, has now gone completely insane, as insane as her mother, beyond redemption. Everyone in the Barov Family, except for the patriarch Alexei, has fallen into madness, including the two who escaped from Barov Estate.
Illucia was lucky; she was freed from the family's longsword, and even a wisp of her soul seemed to have merged into the sword.
The fire is burning.
With each swing of his sword, Ashbringer annihilated one Undead after another. Fenna sensed Ashbringer's anger, and she also sensed Ashbringer joy.
Anger towards the Undead, and joy at annihilating Undead.
The Ashbringer was born when the Undead Scourge ravaged the land, wasn't it to destroy the Undead? That is its primary mission.
Artifacts possess a spirit; Ashbringer, like Frostmourne and other artifacts, has its own soul, a soul created by Fenna herself.
However, this soul is still very weak, extremely weak.
In the original timeline, it was not Fenna who infused a part of her spirit and soul into Ashbringer, but Highlord Mograine.
Each owner incorporates a portion of their spirit and soul into the Ashbringer, thereby gaining the Ashbringer's recognition and becoming the master of this artifact.
In each battle, Ashbringer grows stronger and more perfect as he eliminates enemies, awakening one artifact trait after another.
Slaughter can evolve divine artifacts.
This newly born Ashbringer, through repeated battles, developed a stronger synergy with Fenna, and then awakened its first and most important trait:
Wake of Ashes!
Fenna felt the Ashbringer truly become one with her at this moment. She swung her greatsword, and an unimaginable Holy Fire erupted, completely engulfing the dozens of Undead in front of her. The blinding light even forced Fenna herself to close her eyes.
There were no screams, not much noise.
The moment the light faded, Fenna opened her eyes.
Ahead, only ashes remained.
All the Undead were instantly wiped out. Whether they were zombies, skeletons, vampires, or even the psychics who were casting spells, they were all reduced to ashes. Only their tattered armor and weapons proved their existence.
Such power from a single sword strike!
"Not enough." Fenna took a deep breath.
She sensed the powerful energy contained within the Ashbringer, but she was still too weak to perfectly control it.
Only Legendary Paladin can perfectly wield this power.
One day, she will become Legendary.
And that day is not far off.
"Now it's your turn!"
Fenna her sword and walked towards the Darkmaster Gandling.
Every step was like a raging inferno, each step a burst of fire, radiating light, Mount Tai.
Jiang Jie heard a scream.
Although it was outside the attack range, the sudden burst of Holy Light that enveloped the entire area still caused great damage to Alexei's soul. The poor Barov patriarch had no choice but to crawl into the Barov Family Longsword to protect his soul with the help of the sword.
Yes, this longsword has that ability.
In the years since Alexei became Undead, this longsword has been inseparable from him. Gradually, it has also become imbued with Shadow energy and the aura of the Undead, transforming into a special piece of equipment suitable for harboring a soul.
Of course, it's difficult to entrust another soul to this sword, but it's very easy to entrust Alexei's soul to it, because Alexei has already established a special connection with this longsword, and the two are almost one.
Just like the relationship between Arthas and Frostmourne, or between Fenna and Ashbringer.
However, compared to those two divine weapons, the Barov Family Longsword is at least two levels lower in quality.
With a casual toss, Jiang Jie threw the longsword into a corner to avoid being harmed again by Fenna's Holy Light, and walked towards the Darkmaster Gandling.
He, along with Fenna and Jaina, would announce the death of this Archmage!
No Teleport can work against Jaina.
In the end, Headmaster Gandling couldn't even escape. He was pierced through the chest by Fenna's sword, and his body and soul were burned to ashes by the Holy Fire.
All of his mage equipment was burned away, leaving only a staff.
This purple epic staff, known as the " Headmaster's Staff," is either Gandling's own or a trophy he received from Lady Jandice; in any case, it has now fallen into Jaina's hands.
After three people clear the Scholomance, they need to share the equipment.
There were two purple items in total. Jiang Jie took the one that didn't suit him, Jaina took the one that did suit her. How fair!
As for Fenna, does she even need to share equipment? With Ashbringer, she doesn't need anything else!
Besides, she's smart enough to know that she'll gain the most from this raid on Scholomance. After all, she's now the supreme commander of Chillwind Camp, and monitoring and dealing with Scholomance is her duty.
Now that the surprise attack was successful, the greatest credit should definitely go to her.
Fina glanced at Jaina, then at Jiang Jie, and hesitated, as if Fenna wanted to say something but couldn't.
Jaina is her half-sister.
Although Jaina was unaware of this, the familial bond remained. Therefore, she expressed gratitude for Jaina's help—a somewhat... distant and polite gratitude.
But as for Jiang Jie...
At this moment, she remembered what Jiang Jie had said to her yesterday afternoon:
How about you repay me with your body?
Jiang Jie's tone at the time sounded like he was joking, and she thought he was joking too.
But looking back now, it doesn't seem like it was entirely a joke.
Could it be...?
Is he serious?
Otherwise, why would they offer me so much help?
Fenna was in a state of utter confusion.
Jiang Jie helped her obtain the Ashbringer and then helped her raid Scholomance; this favor is hard to repay.
She had a good impression of Jiang Jie, a very good impression, more so than of any other male.
But has it truly risen to a higher level...?
She didn't know.
After all, she had never liked anyone before and didn't know what it felt like to like someone.
Most importantly...
" Nicholas is only 15? He's so much younger than me... Although, he doesn't seem like a teenager at all... Standing next to him, I feel like I'm the younger one..."
Well, she didn't know that Jiang Jie was already in his twenties before he transmigrated. If you add the 15 years of memories he gained from absorbing and merging with the soul of this body, his actual life experience is nearly forty years!
So, it seems like Jiang Jie is the one who's an older man dating a younger woman?
It's a complete mess, impossible to figure out!
