Chapter Eighty-Seven: The Disappearance of the Archmage
As the lord of Dalaran and the chairman of the Council of Six...... Archmage Antonidas has been in a bit of a restless mood lately.
A powerful mage who has lost contact with Dalaran for a long time.
He is a member of the Council of Six, an eight-ringed grey robe: Alexis!
Three days later, one of Alexis' students informed Antonidas of the news.
"My mentor hasn't been in touch with me for almost four months...... I felt as if he had completely disappeared from this world...... No one heard from him," said the student. : Four months ago, my mentor told me...... He just went to the vicinity of Karazhan to do a simple survey, and he could be back in half a month! ”
It's understandable for a mage to disappear for four months because of something; But if you don't have any contact with people for four months, it's not normal!
Alexis is a powerful mage who majored in spells...... He was born into a magical family in Dalaran; His grandfather, his great-great-grandfather, had been a member of the Council of Six!
However, the venerable Alexis, he disappeared like this. Is it dead, or is something terrible happening?
Antonidas couldn't jump to conclusions!
In fact, all he could do was try to cover up the spread of the matter!
Until the truth is found.
……
Two figures appeared on the street of Dalaran.
The one in front of him was a blonde-haired High Elf, his movements were graceful, but the corners of his eyes were thick wrinkles that magic could not erase...... Even among the elves, he is considered very old!
There was another one, whose whole body was shrouded in a black cloak, and only a hoarse voice could be faintly heard inside:
"Dalaran, I haven't been here in a long, long time!"
"yes!" The elf smiled and nodded: "The change in this city is a bit ......"
"But today, I don't have time to feel this...... We need to find the current leader of Dalaran as soon as possible! The hoarse voice continued.
"Let's go to Violet Castle!" The elf nodded, and with a slight wave of his hand, the two figures disappeared completely into the streets of Dalaran.
Even the Violet Eye hanging high in the sky didn't notice anything unusual here!
No reaction was made.
……
Khadgar hummed a ditty as he prepared to walk out of the castle.
He was going to go to the nearby Violet Commercial Street and buy some snacks to eat...... Carlin went to Dunhold to help the mentor with some business, and Kel'thugad was still at home on the shores of Lake Daron Mill and did not come; He was the only one in the castle except for the Mentor.
Two figures suddenly appeared in front of them, almost colliding with Khadgar!
"Who are you?" Khadgar frowned and asked in a low voice.
One is an elf, an old elf; And the other is a mysterious man who hides his body completely in a cloak!
Khadgar could swear that after so long in Dalaran, he had never seen these two faces.
"We have something we want to visit Archmage Antonidas, can you please help us report it?" The elf asked gracefully.
"Looking for a mentor...... Khadgar said casually, taking two steps back without leaving a trace.
These two figures give people a very strong sense of invisible oppression...... At such a close distance, Khadgar felt very obviously, they have at least seven rings and not eight rings! Two strange eight-ring mages......
There was also an inexplicable appearance at Violet Castle, and Khadgar was even more convinced that they had bad intentions! You know, out of himself, Karin and Kel'thugad, no one can get here without notice!
"It's a coincidence, the mentor isn't here today, he's gone to ......," Khadgar said perfunctorily as he quickly raised his staff.
He wants to be a police officer before these two people react!
However, Khadgar's staff was only halfway raised, and the whole person collapsed to the ground as if he was asleep!
The old elven mage just raised his hand and directly hypnotized Khadgar......
"A very wary young man!" The hoarse voice in the black cloak said slowly, with a bit of appreciation!
A breeze suddenly blew through here inexplicably.
"Who!"
"Who dares to hurt my students in my castle!"
As the breeze blew, Khadgar, who had fallen asleep, disappeared without a trace.
At the same time, two invisible shields completely enveloped the two intruders.
The elf and the figure under the black cloak looked at each other, then raised their staff at the same time!
Those two invisible shields, in an instant, were broken by their spells!
The figure of Archmage Antonidas appeared in front of them.
His main purpose just now was to save Khadgar; Those two shields were just used to delay each other...... However, the other two, being able to break it so easily means that their strength, at least-
Nine rings!
Antonidas glanced at the two intruders.
The one on the left is an elf, and an undisputed High elf without any disguise...... There are only two Nine-Ring Mages in Quel'Thalas: one is King Anastarian and the other is the Archmagister; Obviously, the other party does not belong to either of the two.
The one on the right, the black cloak on his body, has been shattered by the aftermath of Antonidas's spell, revealing his true face...... An undead soul who has a body made of white bones at all, a necromancer!
Antonidas frowned, he never knew when Quel'Salas would have an extra white-robed mage, nor did he know that there would be a mage who transformed himself into an undead and had the strength of the Nine Rings!
But he didn't panic, this is Dalaran, his home field!
With the help of the whole Dalaran......
Not to mention the two Nine Ring Mages, even if there is a legendary mage of the Ten Rings, he is completely sure that he will defeat the other party!
"Your Excellency Antonidas!" The necromancer bowed slightly......
"Maybe there is a misunderstanding between us, we should introduce each other first!" His voice was hoarse, but it didn't have the air of arrogance and madness of ordinary necromancers.
"When the two Excellencies broke into my castle, they actually said that there would be some misunderstanding?" Antonidas said in a deep voice, but he gave up on the idea of gathering all of Dalaran's mages at once and killing the two invaders.
"I'm Naloras-Sunstrider!" The elven mage said elegantly.
"I'm Merry Dongfeng!" The necromancer continued his words: "We represent one of the oldest organizations of mankind, like you ...... for help."
"Council of Tirisfar!"
