Shadow of Galax
"My God, what is that?!"
"It's the Flame Demon Lord!"
"Oh my god, Lagrios has been resurrected?"
Those members of Light of Dawn who had experienced the battle in Blazing Flame Canyon exclaimed in surprise. Indeed, the monster in front of them looked very much like the one from before, Lagrios. However, if one calmed down and looked closely, one would find that there were still some differences. For example, this phantom looked bigger, the color of the flames on its body was different, and it was not wielding the Hammer of the Balrog but a flaming greatsword.
The problem is that at this moment, very few people can calm down; the people around are just shouting and creating chaos.
Only a very few people noticed the name above the Balrog's head— Shadow of Galax (the Balrog Lord's incarnation), among them Phoenix.
Under the watchful eyes of everyone, the avatar of the Fire Demon Lord suddenly spoke, its deep voice echoing across Stormwind City.
Shadow of Galax (Avatar of the Firelord): "Little Goblin, you've finally summoned me! I was almost getting impatient. Tell me, what have you done? Have you gotten what I wanted?"
As he spoke, Galax looked around and was stunned to see the members of the Light of Dawn, the Paladin of the Knights of the Power of Holy Light, and the archbishop and high Priest performing a resurrection ceremony. What?!
Eric (Goblin Pyromancer): "That's right, I found what you were looking for. Look, this is what you wanted—the soul of Long Ao Jiutian. Didn't you want revenge? I've personally delivered it to you. You can make your move anytime." At this moment, Xiao Yu had already reverted to his Goblin form, pointing at the altar with a servile and smug (cheeky) smile on his face.
Upon hearing this, Galax was immediately enraged, his body erupting in flames. He wasn't a fool; on the contrary, he was very clever. Seeing the scene before him and hearing the Goblin's words, how could he not realize that the other party had clearly failed to complete his task and was trying to trick him? This filled Garix with fury.
But this anger did not Goblin before him; rather, it was someone else who felt fear.
"Damn it, he's here to avenge Lagrios! Kill him!" Long Ao Jiutian was in mid-air, was panicking. He had spent a lot of effort (and a lot of money) to complete this resurrection mission. If he failed, not only would he need more time to resurrect, but the money he spent would also be wasted. Even if he was a rich second-generation, money didn't grow on trees.
Most importantly, if his star rating doesn't surpass Phoenix's, his position as guild leader will be difficult to secure. If Phoenix gains another star, even if he revives, it will be useless.
"Don't fight!" Phoenix shouted. She had sensed that something was wrong, and no matter why this avatar of the Balrog Lord had come, if a fight broke out, the resurrection ritual would most likely be ruined. So it was best to resolve things peacefully and not to fight, and if a fight was necessary, it shouldn't start here.
"Damn it, I'm the boss! Kill him! You bitch, you've been wanting to take my place for a long time, haven't you? I knew you were up to no good! What did that guy just say to you?!"
Phoenix was so angry he almost vomited blood. He thought to himself, "If it weren't for needing this job, I wouldn't bother with you at all." He said coldly, "No one is allowed to lay a hand on me. I'm the chairman, and you all obey my orders!"
Long Ao Jiutian ignored Phoenix's good intentions and instead suspected that the other party had some kind of conspiracy. In addition, he had just seen Xiao Yu talking to Phoenix, which made Long Ao Jiutian even more suspicious.
"I'm your boss! Get rid of this Balrog Lord now! Don't you want your year-end bonus?!"
That last sentence left the wavering Light of Dawn members with no other choice. Someone threw out the first spell, and instantly all sorts of magical arrows bombarded the Shadow of Galax.
Galax was still talking to Eric. Although Eric wasn't a player, Galax was quite intelligent and had already sensed something was wrong, so he didn't act immediately.
Galax: "Don't try to test my patience, you Goblin. Did you bring these scum here to your grave? Do you even know what you're doing—" Before he could finish his sentence, various ranged attacks had already landed on him.
Even a clay figure has a temper, let alone Galax, who is a "fire man." Being beaten up for no reason only fueled his rage, and to make matters worse, the Goblin was adding fuel to the fire.
Eric (Goblin Pyromancer): "What are you waiting for, you Big Guy? Don't think your pathetic flames can hurt me. I've been scared since I was a kid." He said, shrinking back as he stood with the Holy Light Knights.
How could Galax tolerate such Provoke?
"Die, you piece of trash!" With a flick of his wrist, a fireball blasted towards Eric.
-2375! A huge red number appeared on Xiao Yu's body. He was not killed by the explosion, but only left with low health. After all, he had advanced to the BOSS template. With 3000 health, he could withstand a hit without dying.
Galax picked it up and was momentarily stunned.
The next second, the Knights of the Holy Light guards around him also joined the attack. It turned out that his fireball had too large an attack range, affecting several nearby knight guards. Those knight guards were not to be trifled with, and they immediately joined the battle.
There was no room for explanation now, and the two sides, who were already at odds, immediately started fighting.
Shadow of Galax (Avatar of the Firelord): "Foolish mortals, you pathetic ants, die! Let the flames purify everything!"
Super Fire Nova!
This skill is exactly the same as the Fire Elemental's Fire Nova, both releasing fire power in all directions from the caster's center. However, the caster in front of us is a bit big, and the spell's influence covers the entire church square. In an instant, flames soared into the sky and spread in all directions like a tide.
P. S.: After reading some book reviews in the book review section, I found that some readers seem to not understand the concept of foreshadowing. So from now on, I will try not to keep things in suspense and will release all chapters of the day at once to avoid any misunderstandings.
