Chapter 1863: Millhouse Manastorm

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Just before fighting the last Boss, Little Hachi Chan had another quest to do.

“A gnome sister called Milificent Manastorm said that her husband has escaped and wanted to bring him back. According to the information that sister Milificent had, her husband should be here,” Hachi Chan explained.

“Why would he come here?” Everyone was puzzled.

“Ummmm, maybe to escape to outer space on an airship?” Hachi Chan suggested, then shook her head and sighed in a would-be wise tone, “Men, they are so scarily innocent, thinking they can escape to outer space and be safe.”

Everyone was stunned. This guy must have been terrified of his wife to want to escape to outer space.

In reality, Gnomes were a race of high intelligence, and had a strong thirst of knowledge. If there was a chance for them to satisfy their thirst for knowledge with the help of technology, then many would do so.

Of course, Millhouse also did the same and quietly boarded this ship of dreams.

But unfortunately, the Kael’thas’ Blood Elves attacked and occupied the Naaru’s ship. There, they found Millhouse imprisoned amongst other dangerous creatures.

“Then let’s stop fighting Bosses and find this poor gnome,” Lu Li said.

When he completed this Instance Dungeon in his past life, it had already been opened for many months. As such, the difficulty had been lowered. But even so, Harbinger Skyriss wasn’t an easy Boss to deal with, and was perfectly suited as a final Boss after these three smaller Instance Dungeons.

Bringing along Millhouse Manastorm was the same as gaining an additional helper.

The party cleared out the remaining monsters and arrived at the place where Millhouse Manastorm was locked up. The only reason they could recognise their target straight away was because that prison had all sorts of weird and strange creatures inside.

However, there was only one small Gnome like this who was small and weak and helpless...

Warden Bellamoore stopped everyone. Lu Li instructed Azure Sea Breeze to pull the Boss, then he used his Unlock skill to open the prison gate.

That little gnome walked out in a daze.

“Uh, where the heck am I? And who are you guys? Aaaah, my head hurts!”

As Warden Bellamoore was fighting, she turned around and glanced at them.

“What is this?! A despicable gnome? Why is it here in my prison?”

“Despicable? I don’t care who you are! No one dare calls the mighty Millhouse a despicable gnome! I don’t know what has happened here, but I will gladly get rid of this unreasonable fool with you guys!” Manahouse roared.

“Wait for your death, idiot!”

Everyone was watching him in anticipation. No one knew if he was capable of dispatching the Warden in one shot.

“Wait, I need to prepare myself. You guys go first; I first need to make some water.”

They speechlessly watched him conjure water, conjure food and create a pile of things. Then, he sat down to enjoy them.

“That’s fantastic! Next, we also need some protective spells,” Millhouse Manastorm continued, then cast Ice Barrier on himself. When he saw that his Mana had been consumed, he picked up a bottle of spring water to restore it.

“Of course, I need to first restore my Mana. Then, you guys will witness my prowess. Just wait a moment...”

“How about we lock him back up again?” Hachi Chan suggested in embarrassment.

“Step it up! Get rid of this Warden!” Lu Li yelled, no longer pinning his hopes on this Gnome.

“Okay, I’m ready. So, who’s ready now to get a beating?”

Millhouse Manastorm was fully prepared now. He jumped up and began shouting again, “Crystal clear, cooling heart!”

Along with these words came a Frostbolt.

Surely he was joking – it was just a simple Frostbolt.

“I will roast you to bits!”

Then, out shot a Fireball. It appeared that Millhouse was a dual-trained Mage.

“There isn’t anyone who can stand up to Millhouse’s Arcane Missiles!”

Everyone was shocked; he was actually a tri-elemental Mage. No wonder he had the title of Manastorm.

Other than the fact that he was a little eccentric, this Gnome was quite amazing. Warden Bellamoore had been hurt quite badly, and didn’t dare call him a despicable gnome any longer.

“Heal me! God damn it! Quickly heal me! I’m going to die!”

His HP bar had only slightly dropped, but he called for help as if he was on the verge of death.

Hachi Chan immediately tended to him.

“You’re very clever, little girl.”

Unfortunately, Millhouse had married a fierce woman, so he wasn’t gentle at all.

Lu Li and the others no longer had anything to say, and only asked for Warden Bellamoore to be killed.

The battle soon reached its conclusion. After all, Warden Bellamoore was just a minor Boss.

“Now look who’s the strongest?! Who’s the strongest? That’s right! We’re the strongest!” Millhouse Manastorm cried out, feeling full of accomplishment.

“Mr. Manastorm, what are your current plans?” Hachi Chan asked.

“Plans? What else can I plan? This stupid airship is no longer flying,” Millhouse Manastorm said.

“Then do you wish to wait for a bit and come meet a friend with me?” Hachi Chan offered as she blinked her round eyes with a face of pure innocence.

“Your friend? Oh, she must be a cute little girl like you. Millhouse likes little girls the most. Alright, let me come meet your friend. She would definitely love Millhouse. I am a tri-elemental Mage.”

“Ahem, Mr. Manastorm, can you help us get rid of Harbinger Skyriss?” Lu Li asked.

“Interrupting when other people were talking is very rude behaviour,” Millhouse scolded as he turned around and glared at Lu Li. He completely disregarded the fact that Lu Li was the one to save him.

Lu Li shrugged his shoulders and closed his mouth like an obedient schoolboy.

“Mr. Manastorm, can you defeat Harbinger Skyriss?” Hachi Chan asked.

“Of course, I’m the great...”

“Then please help me teach him a lesson,” Hachi Chan begged as she waved her little fist.

“That’s not at all a problem. I’m so tired of him being in my ear all the time,” Millhouse Manastorm agreed without a moment’s hesitation.

The Naaru believed that as long as the Harbinger Skyriss was locked up, he would be forced into a long and dreamless sleep. This would allow his persuasive voice to quiet down.

It turned out that they were completely wrong. Under his instigation, all the prisoners decided to find a chance to escape.

Harbinger Skyriss and Ahn’Qiraj’s Prophet Skeram looked very alike. Even their skills were alike, but they were different Bosses. They weren’t brothers, and only shared the same clan.
