Northland Storm Chapter 46 After the Incident (I)
"Thank you from the bottom of my heart, great human paladin lord. You and the other human warriors have saved the lives of countless Queldore!I swear in the name of Daylight that I will never forget this kindness as long as I, Kael'thas Sunchaser!" Kael'thas made a promise after learning what Adlan had done for Quel'Thalas, and bowed his noble and proud head in a solemn and unacceptable way to countless High Elves.
Queldore was then renamed Sindore by their prince, in order not to forget the shame of Silvermoon and the Well of the Sun, and to honor the lives of those who perished in the Holocaust.
None of the High Elves objected to the first decision of Kael'thas after his return, on the contrary, it was more likely to stir up their will to restore their kingdom and take revenge, and His Royal Highness knew very well what his people needed, as much as he needed himself.
It was also the first time that Edlan had met His Royal Highness, a prince who was very famous both now and "in the future", Kael'thas inherited the handsome appearance of Anastria, but to be precise, the High Elves were all handsome men and beautiful women even in terms of human aesthetics. His hair color was the same as his father's, pale blonde and somewhat milky white, which was more elegant than the flamboyant and outward expression of the common golden hair color of human beings.
Kael'tham's eyes were the emerald green common of the High Elves, and as Edlan had remembered, His Royal Highness did not use weapons, at least now he did not find them wearing them on Kael'thas, not even the usual staff of mages, of course, because the weapon he inherited from his father had not been repaired, and the flaming blow had been broken in two. Unlike Edlan's "impression", there are no three emerald green "balls" on the luxurious and exaggerated robe on Kael'thas shoulders.
And these three emerald green "balls", they are fragments of the Moon Crystal. The Moon Crystal was the Key of March, in other words, the most important energy core in the important nodes of the magical defense barrier formed by the giant rune stones surrounding the Eternal Song Forest Realm, so at this time, he had not obtained these three magic trinkets like amplifiers.
In fact, at this time, Kael'thas served as a member of the Council of Six in Dalaran Kenrito, but he did not get the throne because he was the prince of the High Elves. Because of his own high attainments in magic, Dalaran's book "Factions of Arcane Magic" describes that "Kael'thas Sunstrider is the most famous user of protective magic", and his unique achievements in the field of magic are also admired by Antonidas.
Edlan doesn't know much about the "commercial blowing" between mages, but being able to get the approval of Antonidas, who has become more and more stubborn and arrogant, can be more or less used as a corroboration. Again, such praise had caused Anastria to feel sorry for his son, who had been in the human world for too long, and despite his loyalty to Queldore, he was also loyal to Kenrito, much to the Sun King's constant distress.
But now, when Kael'thas learns of the danger of his homeland, he resolutely abandons his identity as a member of the six-member Parliament of Kenrito and shoulders the responsibility of a royal bloodline. Then, after learning that the Well of the Sun, where the High Elves lived, was polluted by the Scourge Legion, which would seriously damage the health of the Elves, he had to make the second major decision after his return to destroy the Well of the Sun!
"Your Royal Highness, King and Prince, do you really want to do this?" Although Magister Rothman was well aware of what the contaminated Sunwell meant to the people, his idea was to find a cure for the Sunwell rather than destroy it.
"Needless to say, Rothman, I'm sad to make this decision, but it's a must...... We can tolerate the addiction, but if we don't, then we won't even see the future, and the polluted sunwell will swallow up our lives bit by bit. β
In the face of Kael'thas's distressed appearance, the high-level blood elves present were silent, even the rangers who relied the least on the sunwell, and all the blood elves present knew about such a thing as demon addiction. This is a symptom of a blood elf, or an addiction to magic peculiar to the upper classes.
So what is addiction?
Before the War of the Ancients, the upper elves sat on the Well of Eternity, and the energy produced from the pure planetary "blood" of Azeroth provided these upper elves with an inexhaustible source of energy, but at the same time, they were secretly changing their constitution. This is also the reason why the upper elves are almost all excellent magicians by nature, and from birth to death, they enjoy the incomparable supply of magic from the Well of Eternity, and even every breath can absorb the magic that intoxicates them.
Later, after the War of the Ancients, the Well of Eternity exploded, shattering the entire continent, which also led to the collapse of the Night Elf Empire, and Darth Rema's Sunstrider stole a bottle of water from the Well of Eternity, and took his clan and followers across the ocean to the northern part of what is now the Eastern Continent, the Well of the Sun.
Then, these elves who had traveled across the ocean were well nourished and transferred their dependence on the Well of Eternity to the Well of the Sun. It's just this time, the ranger at that time
Inheriting the glory of their ancestors, they have taken root far from the Sunwell, guarding the frontier of Quel'Salas, and because they were and are far away from the Sunwell, they are not physically fit to be magicians, nor are they confused by the addiction to mana.
Here is a simple example, the High Elves of the Silver Covenant of the "Later Generations" are almost not impregnated by the magic of the Sunwell because they are away all the year round, so their magic addiction is very weak, and only ordinary breathing and absorbing the trace amount of magic contained in the air are enough. This is also the case with the Windrangers and all the rangers, who are not only born away from the Sunwell, but also not in the "radiation" range of the Sunwell, so they don't have much influence at this time.
This is also one of the reasons why the High Elves have such a strong force but cannot actively expand their territory, one is the population limit, and the other is the radiation range of the Sun Well, if it is far away, even if their army is strong, it will eventually be defeated by demon addiction.
So now, the high-level blood elves present are at a loss, because no matter how they choose, it is painful. But Kael'thas was determined, and the topic was no longer discussed, and everyone was helpless and full of anxiety discussing how to destroy the sunwell.
However, it is not easy to destroy the sunwell, and it requires a very large amount of energy, and Kael'thas obtained the Moon Crystal from Lotharma to become one again. But he redivided the Moon Crystal into three pieces, one for each of the three powerful Magisters of Kael'thas, Romans, and Astaro.
"These three crystals can be a good amplification for us to destroy the ritual of the Sunwell, as long as the ritual is not ......"
Kael'thas was discussing with the other two Magus in detail how to destroy the Well of the Sun, his voice was gentle, but full of confidence and a feeling that would make people feel unwilling, not to mention disgusting, his voice was more like a kind of seduction, which made the two Magus completely approve of him.
It's no wonder that Kael'thas is not in Quel'Salas all the year round, but is studying magic in the human world, which in itself is a shame to those self-proclaimed noble and high-end magisters! Magic is taught to humans by the High Elves, and you, Kael'thas Sunchaser, are a royal family, and instead of fulfilling the responsibilities of a crown prince in your own country, you go to Dalaran to mingle with humans and learn magic with them!
Do you think this will not make these magisters feel ashamed and "heartbroken"?
Only now, not only is Kael'thas very good-natured to these magisters, but his rich and powerful magical attainments have also been completely recognized by these two magisters with this brief discussion, not only the famous magical genius of Dalaran, but also the magical genius of Quel'Thalas, he is their pride, he is their new king.
When Archmage Belovar and Sylvanas emerged from the portal and swore allegiance to the Sunstrider family in public, Kael'thas was recognized by all the surviving Blood Elves, despite the fact that no enthronement ceremony had been held.
Finally, after a brief exchange of information, Kael'thas learned from Beloval about the powerful space magic fluctuations detected on the island of Queldanus, and the daring Sylvanas personally led the team back to the palace of the Well of the Sun to investigate, she found that the loyal guards inside had turned into undead monsters and launched a fierce attack on the rangers' troops, and she also felt that there was a very evil aura in the depths of the palace, which was the direction of the polluted Sunwell, after confirming these information, she immediately returned to the ruins of Silvermoon City with the assistance of the Magister, and joined the Grand Magus Beloval, and then came to the Harbor of Sunsail to meet Kael'thasγ
After learning the news, Adlan was frightened into a cold sweat by the behavior of this unreasonable Ranger General, she worked so hard to let her survive, but in the end she even wanted to run to find Arthas's bad luck?
"Well, since the most troublesome enemy has left, let's do what we have to do. I just hope we're still in time. Kael'thas didn't hesitate, he directly announced the start of the operation, "Beloval, please use teleportation to send us to the Palace of the Well of the Sun, and then the overall situation here will be under your command." β
"Yes, Your Highness the Prince. β
Then the magic filled with arcane brilliance enveloped the group, and the light flickered, and not long after, Kael'thas and his party reached the palace of the Well of the Sun. Edlan was among them, and his impression of this place was even more obvious, this was the room where Muru was over-drained and eventually transformed into an entropy demon. In other words, this is the room of the fifth boss in the Well of the Sun dungeon, which can be said to be extremely nostalgic for Edlan, and many dusty and forgotten memories have resurfaced, but he quickly and secretly shook his head to dismiss such thoughts.
Because he also felt that in the depths of this palace, there was a clear aura of death, which he had not spoken, and Crassus, who was standing beside him, was also deeply touched.
Edlan didn't know why Crassus came at this time, according to "history", he should have come after the destruction of the Well of the Sun, and then rushed to condense the essence of the Well of the Sun that escaped in the air, and used the life spell unique to the Red Dragon to shape it into the appearance of a little human girl.
And this is the energy creature composed of the essence of the pure Well of the Sun, Avena Tige.
It seems to feel Edlan's puzzled eyes, this red dragon method
Shi smiled apologetically and whispered, "I think you should know what I'm here for, a magical time traveler who hasn't been hunted down by the Bronze Dragon. β
Edlan, whose identity was revealed, was just stunned, he didn't expect that since Medivan, another big guy would find out his identity. I didn't feel like I was in a cold sweat at all, but because of Crassus's friendliness, he didn't think in a bad direction at all.
The team quickly moved forward, and this team included almost all of the high-end forces that Kael'thas could find, such as Ranger General Sylvanas, High Priests Leadline and Farron, Magisters Astaro and Rothman, Paladin Adlan, High Warriors Garrell and Solana, and Red Dragon Mage Crassus, one of the six members of the Kenrito Council.
As for the rest, they have to continue to evacuate civilians, and they have to continue to lead the remnants of the blood elves to resist, so Kael'thas does not dare to take all the high-end combat power away at once.
With such a powerful team of high-end forces, it couldn't be easier to deal with the undead guards awakened by Arthas in the palace of the Well of the Sun, and Edlan was left behind after applying buffs to everyone in order to communicate with Crassus, and he is now concentrating on being a supporting paladin. It's just that he didn't expect that his relaxed appearance of "being able to fight and adding" fell into the eyes of Liadlin, who was also in the back row to assist, which made the latter's adoring eyes even hotter.
"To be honest, your identity does intrigue me, but there's no doubt that everything you do is for Azeroth. Crassus followed the team very leisurely, he just threw a few spells from time to time and continued to play soy sauce, after all, he didn't expect to meet Adlan himself in Yangfan Harbor, so he also had to communicate with this time traveler.
Edlan was a little depressed, how could others cross over, and his identity could be maintained until the end without being revealed, how could he see through all kinds of bigwigs at a glance as soon as he crossed over?" "Okay, then what are you going to do with the essence of the Sun Well?"
"You know what to ask me?" Crassus smiled.
"Well, the way I'm asking is wrong, I think, the essence of the Well of the Sun is such an important thing, the Red Dragon Legion should take this responsibility to protect it, right?"
"Hmm...... I originally planned to do the same, but, you know, once given life by our Red Dragon, it is a life form that has the ability to think independently, and the Red Dragon Legion has no reason or qualification to 'protect' such a life, every life should have its due value, even its 'creator' can't take away this value at will, right?"
In the face of Crassus's rhetoric, Adlan finally understood why the essence of the Well of the Sun was such an important thing in "history", and Crassus's way of dealing with it was to shape it into the appearance of a little human girl, and give her a certain false memory, and two illusioned parents, so that she could live happily in a small farm in Tarummere......
The Red Dragon Legion respects life, but to be honest, this is a sloppy way of dealing with it. From the "God's point of view" of a time-traveler like Edlan, if Avena had been protected by the Red Dragon Legion at that time, even if she had become Alexstaza's squire, it would have been better than having been stolen by Darkan, handed away by Karegos's scumbag, and then taken captive by the enchanted Kael'thas and reduced to one of the sources of energy that summoned Kil'Gardan to the new Well of the Sun in the present world. Although Kael'thas had already obtained a bottle of water from the new Well of Eternity from Illidan at that time, and the Well of the Sun was recreated, the energy required to summon Kil'Gardan was enormous, and Avena made up for it very well, allowing the summoning to be achieved relatively smoothly......
Although as a living being, Anvena is the most innocent one, she was innocently shaped by the life magic of the red dragon and born, born as an innocent life, and briefly enjoyed the happy time in the world in false memories, but just as the same husband is innocent and guilty, she is destined to be spied on by someone who cares about the essence of the well of the sun, and she has such energy that she has but she has no due protection, and even her own strength is very weak, which is doomed to her future tragedy.
For this reason, Edlan carefully chose his words and said, "I respect the Red Dragon Legion's practices, but I don't think it's a good thing to have such a powerful energy lifeform alone outside. β
Crassus was silent, because he knew the identity of this person, although the other party did not say it explicitly, he knew that the other party was likely to come to the present from the future timeline, and his attitude seemed to be very disapproving of his own actions, just like the two very critical information he provided, so that the dragon army was like a prophet, the green dragon army was able to avoid a disaster, and their red dragon army successfully discovered the place where the black dragon was hiding.
Therefore, Crassus listened to Edlan's words with respect and attention, and he felt that as such a time traveler, there would probably be various restrictions that prevented him from telling everything he knew, but since the other party had reminded him so clearly, it meant that what he was going to do would have a very negative impact on Azeroth in the future.
So Crassus, whose mission is above all else, made a decision, "Then it is up to you to raise and protect her, I believe you will educate her well." β
"Huh?"
