The Council of Kenrito turned their attention back to Oryx, and this time, they seemed to be solemn, and Antonidas in the first place nodded for him to continue.

Oryx took a deep breath and said loudly, "My lords, I'll just ask one thing. Is Master Kel'thugad, a former member of your parliament, missing? Isn't there anyone keeping an eye on him? ”

This is what he speculated through the plot.

Necromancy is a no-no for all races, and there is a fundamental difference between the study of prevention and the desire to master this power. Kel'thugad falls into the latter category.

He was also a member of the Kenrito Council, the ruling class of the Magic Capital in every sense of the word. However, his behavior can be described as a bad record, not only is he extremely enthusiastic about forbidden psychic spells and necromantic knowledge, but he also repeatedly violates the ban and secretly conducts dangerous related experiments, and is finally expelled by the council.

How to say it, even if you don't know the history behind it, Kel'thugad is also a troublemaker, not a trouble of Ronin's degree, but a "real troublemaker" who may incur extremely terrible consequences once something bad, his enthusiasm for forbidden knowledge is only one aspect, and what is even more terrifying is that he is a rare legendary mage in the world, looking at all mankind, there are not many mages who can compare with it.

And after Dalaran expels him, he will inevitably keep a watch on him - there are still people watching and stopping him when he conducts forbidden experiments in Dalaran, and it would be bad if he ran out and caused chaos.

It stands to reason that at a time when the Council of Tirisfa has long since died out, replacing the functions of this Guardian-centered organization and continuing to closely monitor the potential threats to the world is what Dalaran should do.

Not to mention that their former colleague Kel'thugad was a dangerous man.

However, based on the fact that Dalaran knew nothing about the Scourge before the outbreak of the plague, it was possible to conclude that their surveillance was not in place. At least he didn't follow Kel'thugad to Icecrown Glacier in Northrend, otherwise he would definitely be able to detect the undead forces rising there, and be alert to it as soon as possible.

As it turned out, Oryx guessed right.

One of the councillors looked at Antonidas for a long time, as if after pondering the meaning behind Oryx's words, and was surprised that he knew Kenrito so well, and after receiving his approval, turned to Oryx and said:

"Now that you can name the word surveillance, you must know the reason for Kel'thugad's expulsion. But at the same time, you should also understand how difficult it is to spy on a legendary mage. A few months ago, we lost track of him. ”

Although the tone was calm, a hint of dissatisfaction could be heard. Not to mention how Orix knew about this, but at this time, he is questioning and even questioning the Kenrito Council, which is uncomfortable no matter what.

"He went to Northrend. Icecrown Glacier in Northrend. Oryx said quietly.

The members of the House of Representatives in the seats fell silent, not because they didn't understand Oryx's hints, but because they couldn't believe the fact. Finally, it was Antonidas who asked in a deep voice, "You mean, he's studying the undead?" ”

"No," Oryx said slowly, "he went to meet the Lich King, who ruled over the undead, and chose to pay his allegiance to him!" ”

As soon as the words fell, the whole hall was shocked, and several parliamentarians finally couldn't sit still.

"What?"

"It can't be! He would never do such a thing......"

The news is truly striking.

Who can believe it?

It was normal not to believe, after all, they had all worked with Kel'thugad for so many years and knew very well who he was.

Oryx shook his head secretly.

The councillors were right, and Kel'thugad did regret it.

But his fall was inevitable. At first, I was tempted by the knowledge of necromancy that the Lich King promised him, and there was a bit of a sense that he had heard of the Fa-rectification and died without regrets, giving people the impression that he was purely a fanatical scholar.

It was only after meeting the Lich King that he realized that he had embarked on a path of no return. But at this time, it is too late to turn back. Because the olive branch extended to him by the Lich King has a name, which is "If you don't take it, you will die, and you will suffer a fate ten thousand times more terrible than death".

So Kel'thugad was semi-forcibly pulled onto the thief ship, and of course, the law of true incense was fulfilled, and that was a matter for later.

"Is this a fact-based conclusion of the Knights of the Silver Hand, or is it what you saw in the prophecy?" Antonidas asked.

"It's a prophecy, but it's also a fact, because it's already happened." Oryx replied.

Antonidas nodded, waved his hand, and a torrent of magic swept through the space, as if casting a soundproof magic, and then Orix couldn't hear the sound in his seat, he could only see them talking to each other, and some people couldn't help but shake their heads.

After a while, the communication was over, the soundproofing spell was withdrawn, and Antonidas asked again, "Is there anything else you want to tell us about Kel'thugad?" ”

"He's back, armed with the profound necromantic knowledge bestowed upon him by the Lich King, and is about to use his former fortune to form the Cult of the Damned with my father, Oryx Rivendell, and use the flow of food to spread a terrible plague before the spring of next year, killing millions of civilians and turning Lordaeron and the entire Northland into a paradise for the undead!"

Once again, there was silence for a long time.

"Alright, we know, Ronin, bring this paladin back to his colleagues." It was a long time before Antonidas spoke, but his tone was no longer calm.

Oryx saluted and followed Ronin out of the venue.

The occult spell slowly dissipated, revealing the lineup of the six Kenrito Councillors, with Antonidas at the top flanked by the oldest and most mysterious Crassus, the High Elf prince Kael'thas Sunstrider, Modra, who was in charge of political and foreign affairs in Dalaran, Drandon who disappeared around the time of the Third War in the canon, and Ansrem Ruinvivol, who replaced Kel'thugad.

The identities corresponding to each of the previous figures were all guessed by Oryx Rivendell. I don't know if these councilors will be even more surprised and curious about this young paladin if they find out.

But they don't have the leisure right now, and everyone's faces are heavy.

This is the third time, and the silence is slowly fermenting in the silent silence, and the background of the cosmic starry sky is no longer circulating, as if it is reflecting the sorrow in the hearts of these Kenrito councilors.

"What are we supposed to do?" Finally, a member of parliament spoke up to break the silence, and it was Ansrem.

"It's better to believe it than to believe it......" Derlandon sighed faintly and turned to Antonidas, "What do you mean, my lord?" ”

"Investigate." Antonidas said categorically.

Modra nodded, "Well, I'll take care of that." ”

"No, Durandon and Ainsrem will also put down what they are doing, and you will go together to investigate."

"Yes."

After a while, Antonidas suddenly chuckled, and the white beard on his mouth trembled slightly, and said, "It is strange that this young man has brought us such a prophecy. We'd better check on him as well and make sure he's safe. ”

"Seconded."

"Seconded."

After the two councillors nodded, Crassus also said, "Second." I'll take care of that. ”

With that, he left the venue and disappeared into the azure magical mist peculiar to teleportation spells, leaving the rest of the crowd in surprise. Crassus has always been so mysterious, and no one knows how many years he lived. But at least he was here when Dalaran and the Kenrito Council were founded, guiding the flourishing of this magical capital with wisdom and protecting all of humanity.

"Seconded, but I'm still inclined to use a memory search on him—the most thorough kind." Modra also spoke.

Only the High Elf prince Kael'thas Sunstrider remained silent, his hands folded and his chin propped up, staring at the place where Orix had disappeared in silence, as if he was interested in the eccentric young man.

Antonidas turned to his old companion and said with a smile, "Those old stubborns of the Church of Light and the Knights of the Silver Hand will smash our castles. ”

This joke somewhat diluted the solemn atmosphere, and everyone got up and disappeared into the teleportation spell, going their own way.
