"He's asking you to eat him, but I'm a little reluctant!"

Tuller angrily pushed away the skeletal beast that was entangled with him, and then tried to absorb Yurev's soul.

But both the skeletons of Lorraine and the gravedigger's brothers came to stop Thule from getting closer.

Even as several more nameless gravedigger soldiers were utterly destroyed, the shadow priest Orist was also vying with Thule for the remains and souls of the Forsaken...

.....

The 'Chrysanthemum Tea' lurking in the shadows also overheard Yurev's words. He couldn't help but recall that the lich Deiflin had apparently had his remnant soul absorbed by an item in Lorraine.

Did Lorraine steal it?

They were even deceived into believing it was some uncontrolled rune absorption...

"What secrets is Lorraine, this necromancer, hiding? Is he a spy for the enemy?!"

Among those present, many others, including those who were considered forgotten, shared the same question...

Inspector Minette pointed at Lorraine and said, "Devouring the souls of one's own kind is a taboo. He must be arrested and investigated. Only liches of the Scourge have this ability and habit..."

The Shadow Priest scoffed: "There are quite a few within the Forsaken who can devour souls. Which of those demon warlocks isn't a master of manipulating souls? Which member of the Shadow Council can't do it?"

"But that doesn't mean they can devour their own people; that's betrayal. It's a desecration of the Queen's majesty!"

"Shut up!"

The Shadow Priest, seeing his former comrade-in-arms Yurev nearing the end of his life, impatiently blocked Minette's view, preventing him from eavesdropping on Yurev's last words...

......

"I remember a lot. I am Yurev, a paladin who believes in the Holy Light. To protect my country and family, I fought alongside my brothers in Silverpine Forest to stop Arthas..."

"It's a pity that we, so weak, fell so easily..."

"My wife Clarisse, I haven't forgotten her name, and our child... what's his name again... I can't remember. Why is this memory so unclear and incomplete..."

Just as Yurev was about to completely extinguish the flames of his soul, Lorraine sensed that his resentment had intensified several times over.

......

“I swore an oath to the Holy Light to destroy the dead, and today I myself am the very thing I once wanted to destroy. The Holy Light has abandoned us... My piety has become tainted with resentment.”

“Every bone in Silverpine Forest once belonged to a lover of this country. Arthas betrayed us, cruelly murdering us and turning us into his slaves.”

"Your Majesty... lead us to... revenge..."

......

Just before his soul was about to completely dissipate, Yurev stopped his impassioned speech.

In his vengeful eyes, the flames of life gradually cooled...

Lorraine couldn't possibly devour Yurev's soul, even though his runic right eye was emitting a strong signal at that moment...

"I...I'm not a traitor!"

Even though Lorraine did not actively absorb Yurev's soul, the overwhelming aura of vengeful spirits actively converged towards his right eye!

Everyone present witnessed Lorraine devouring Yurev's remnant soul...

The Shadow Priest Orlister bowed his head in anguish and muttered to himself:

"The Holy Light will abandon you, hero, just as it abandoned me."

"Your blind loyalty means nothing to me... The Lord of Light and Shadow governs the endless cycle in the interweaving of light and shadow."

“My friend Yurev, this is the truth I saw in the shadows... Your death is insignificant; only the fallen understand the value of loyalty!”

The Shadow Priest's prayers went unspoken, but Yurev's lingering resentment soared to the heavens.

......

Like a gray, demonic dragon rolling around, stirring up the clouds and mist of the Silver Pine Forest, the two moons of different colors in the sky gradually drifted further and further away.

It was already the early morning of the seventh day...

Whether Lorraine liked it or not, he was haunted by Yurev's vengeful spirit.

This vengeful spirit has a resentment concentration of 99%.

It is comparable to 100 ordinary vengeful spirits.

This is the Death Knight-level wraith that the master and apprentice knew about, which could be stored in the right eye of the rune.

The quality of this soul is worlds apart from that of the low-level Cataclysm Knights absorbed by the lake; there's no comparison!

One against a hundred...

This was a huge achievement, but the master and apprentice were far from happy...

.....

"Hey! Don't you all respect Lord Tule?! You dared to steal the food this mage had his eye on, especially you, you little lich. All that talk and pretense... turns out you just wanted to hog it all!"

Tule immediately went into a berserk state, and the crimson magic runes on his body rippled towards the ground...

It looks like a showerhead that emits red smoke...

.....

Filled with unwarranted rage, Lorraine also uttered a third cry of the will of the dead.

The same gigantic skull phantom reappeared above his head, and the entire will of the undead spread outwards... resounding throughout the universe.

.....

Recently in Undercity, Aegwynn and Queen Sylvanas were discussing the current situation.

Including progress in research on the immortals...

The Queen deliberately avoided Varimathras, the dreadlord.

Varimathras also pretended not to know of Aegwynn's existence.

It truly didn't know the seamstress's name, only that the spy had mentioned the president of the Undead Research Society was a powerful archmage...

The Queen and Aegwynn looked up in surprise at the same time, nodding to each other. "This is the little necromancer I told you about."

The Dark Queen carefully sensed Lorraine's third awakening of the will of the undead, and the intense fluctuations of necromantic power were crystal clear.

On the one hand, they are closer in distance, and on the other hand, it has been confirmed that they are from Lorraine.

......

I've actually studied necromancy as well; it's a power of demons that distorts the order of life.

They deliberately reverse the existence of life, depriving the soul and body of their harmony and separating them.

Unlike ordinary death magic, necromancy can steal and deprive the remaining power of life.

It is a collection of all negative energies, including resentment, bitterness, tyranny, jealousy, and greed.

.......

Disruptors of order are a synonym for necromancers.

Ordinary minor characters only glimpse the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the power of necromancy, and their application is merely superficial.

They simply replace the soul and the body, using ordinary magic to draw them together.

This kind of puppet magic is really low-level.

Only by arousing primal resentment, transforming the power of the order of life and death, and preserving the fluctuations of the soul, can a perfect army of the dead be created.

.......

Aegwynn tried her best to explain this special dark magic to Queen Sylvanas...

The queen didn't understand, but she was still concerned about revenge and the future of her people.

The Forsaken received Aegwynn's help. Aegwynn also acknowledged that she was now the Guardian of the Forsaken...

However, Aegwynn clearly retained the traditional neutrality of the old mages of Dalaran. She remained uninvolved in the battles between the Alliance and the Horde, and the conflict between the Forsaken and humans...

He also kept advising the Dark Queen to exercise restraint...

After all, they were all once citizens of Lordaeron!

The monks were obsessed with the study of power and unwilling to get involved in worldly power struggles.

Queen Sylvanas could barely understand that her Forsaken subordinates each harbored their own ulterior motives...

She has tried her best to unite these followers, even if there may be Scourge spies among them.

It's not easy to distinguish friend from foe. Even for Sylvanas herself, her past as a high elf ranger still influences her decisions.

.....

The majority of the members of the Barren Council are Forsaken who have been transformed from humans, and they are always secretly trying to win over the remnants of the Kingdom of Lordaeron.

The Queen saw it all.

......

The Shadow Council, the Royal Alchemist's Association, the League of Assassins, the Black Knights...

War envoys of tribal chiefs, blood knights of Silvermoon City... countless forces are entrenched within Undercity.

In contrast, the Dark Queen didn't know who to trust; she only believed in her own power!

.....

However, in order to support their people and expand their power, the Forgotten Ones do indeed lack talent.

It's difficult to poach talent from other companies, and it's not easy to cultivate talent yourself either.

Nathanos, the former human ranger lord and now the Wither, remains distant, even though the Queen has condescended to personally visit the Plaguelands to communicate with him.

He still only wished to guard that farm in the Western Plaguelands...

......

Lorraine inadvertently came into the Queen's sights, but he was still not qualified...

Lorraine needs to prove her worth through countless trials and achievements.

The Dark Queen will protect him in the shadows...

Until he truly grows into an elite among the forgotten!
