Chapter 13: The Vanishing Elven Imperial Capital

The difficulty of dragon language is that the text is obscure and the grammar is complex and varied, but the archivist already has some experience, and Anduin only gave him a little pointing, so he let him pause and bury his head in other dragon books.

Seeing Anduin's understatement of the dragon language, the eyes of the green candle kobold were full of adoration, and he saw that Anduin was interested in elven books, so he deliberately acted as a guide and found many important documents for Anduin, covering the origin of elves, the rise of empires, and the general process of collapse and collapse.

Anduin looked at the information very seriously, before hearing a certain story from the mouth of Prince Varana, he wanted to know the relevant deeds of the Elven Empire, and the two kobolds saw that he was so focused that he didn't even dare to breathe, for fear of disturbing him.

I don't know how long it took, Anduin finally finished reading these documents, but in response to that sentence, the more he knew about the Elven Empire, the more he realized how shallow his understanding was, his eyes flashed with puzzlement and curiosity, and he immediately rummaged through piles of documents, and the green candle kobold hurriedly asked: "Knowledgeable anthropologist, am I missing important information?" ”

"No, you're mistaken, I just want to see the territory of the Elven Empire, and the current world map."

Hearing this, the Green Candle Kobold immediately brought these two maps, and Anduin raised his eyes to see it, and his fingertips involuntarily fell to the very center of the Eurasian continent, that is, the location where Stormwind Town is located, and this location is in the elf territory, which happens to correspond to the elven imperial capital.

"So, does the existence of the Gathering Stone have anything to do with the Elven Empire?"

[Quite possibly, but I need to scan the data to be sure.] 】

"Didn't you say that the Gathering Stone suppresses some kind of existence? Even this can make a golden card? ”

[Of course, I am an omnipotent system, but at least a thousand energy crystals are consumed. 】

"A thousand? How can there be so many? Aren't the rune eggs only eighty? Then again, you still haven't told me what's in the rune egg. ”

[Big guy, you have to know that this collection stone may suppress the ruins of the imperial capital, a thousand pieces is already a conservative estimate, as for the rune egg, it is actually an ancestral turtle, the reason why the guardian spirit of the new world is chasing after it is because the ancestral turtle clan prays to it. 】

"Risking my life to get a turtle back?"

[To be precise, the Ancestral Turtle Prophet can foresee the existence of the future.] 】

"That's pretty much it."

Estimating that the time was not early, Anduin stood up, and the purple-robed kobold, who was immersed in the huge harvest, immediately woke up and personally escorted him to the entrance of the secret passage, and when he left, he did not forget to tell him to come over early next week, Anduin readily agreed, not only because the two staff of the library contributed two more cards to him, but also because the library contained the literature of dragons, demons and many other races.

The historical trajectory of this world is very different from that of World of Warcraft, which makes him particularly curious about the unknown beings who have been annihilated in the long river of time, although he has spent most of his time here and has not been able to get substantial help, Anduin feels that it is very worthwhile, at least he knows that the collection stone he wants to protect is related to the elven imperial city in the ancient era.

Passing through the dark passage with ease, the transparent candle was put into the badge space, Anduin returned to the surface and saw the rising sun, and he didn't sleep all night, but he was more energetic, tidied up his clothes a little, and took a few knights to inspect the territory, he didn't do anything new to take office three fires, but personally walked around the territory, condolences to the elderly, and by the way, knocked on the side, asking about Archbishop Benedictas.

Before Anduin left his hometown, there was only a bishop in Stormwind, and it was obviously not up to the box to have an archbishop in the seat.

However, the townspeople's answers all showed that the archbishop was kind and religious, and that he was a qualified priest in every service, preaching the teachings of the Light at every service, and always treating wounded townspeople free of charge.

If you look at these points alone, it is clear that Benedictas is a more qualified priest than Anduin, but when he deliberately finds a certain townsman who showed a repulsive gaze yesterday, he still finds some clues.

Despite the great restraint shown by the townsman, Anduin would show inexplicable fanaticism whenever he asked the archbishop about it, and whenever Anduin revealed his slander, he would speak against him as a lord regardless of his status.

Seeing that this person's emotions were becoming more and more excited, Anduin immediately asked the accompanying guards to be on guard, and with a wave of the scepter, there was a surge of light, if this person had turned away from the Holy Light, it would inevitably be extraordinary, but what made Anduin frown was that the townman's emotions calmed down in the Holy Light, and his face showed a serene expression, showing that he was still an extremely devout believer in the Holy Light.

Thoughtfully sending it away, Anduin's brows furrowed, and he said secretly in his heart: "The situation does not seem to be as bad as imagined. ”

[Why?] 】

"If this person doesn't believe in the Light, I'll be ready to suppress the rebellion at any time, but the current situation is just as tricky, the archbishop is not preaching teachings other than the Light, but strengthening the cult of personality, and if he shows his true colors, these fanatics will follow with him to rebel against the Light, and I suspect that this time is definitely not far off."

[Why?] 】

"The reason is very simple, the arrival of me and the nine papal knights is bound to startle the snake, and the death of Bolval and the departure of old Fording allow him to develop believers without restraint, it seems that I am going to get a good understanding of this archbishop now."

[Why?] 】

"You're repeating the machine! What else could it be? Of course, knowing oneself and knowing that the other side will not be defeated in a hundred battles, if you don't take advantage of the fact that you know more now, will you have to wait until the time of the start of the fight? ”

[Sorry ...... card]

Anduin rolled his eyes, and immediately led people to the town church, since the last time the silver fortress repelled the attacking orcs, this church has been renovated, but the dark color and Gothic style make him sincerely feel the deep dark charm in this thick and solemn atmosphere, and the territory model does not show this church, and the system reply is somewhat intriguing, that is, this is not Anduin's territory.

"Scan the energy crystals needed for the church and use them at will, I want to see what secrets can be hidden here?"

【Okay!】 】

Benedictas did not shy away from Anduin's arrival, and he took Anduin on a tour of the church and discussed the doctrine together under the statue of the Light.

It has to be said that this person is quite charismatic, at least the various insights have deepened Anduin's understanding of the doctrine of the Light, in addition, he learned that Benedictas is about to be qualified for the promotion of the pope, which obviously means that the archbishop's superficial strength should not be underestimated, and if he tears off the disguise, he will inevitably show a more powerful side.

"Is this showing me muscles?" Anduin's eyes moved slightly, "How's the scan going?" ”

[More than ninety percent of the scanning area was scanned, and no suspicious anything was found for the time being, and the remaining area was covered by holy light energy, so the data could not be scanned.] 】

Anduin looked at the anthropomorphic sculpture of the Holy Light in front of him, his posture was noble and yearning, and the archbishop stood beside him and sighed sincerely: "Anduin, do you believe in the saying that the Holy Light is omnipotent and omnipresent? ”

Anduin caught a glimpse of the shadows at the feet of the two and did not answer, Benedictas showed a meaningful smile, personally sent him out of the door, looked at Anduin's back, and said in his heart: "Lazares wants you to spy on me, why don't I want you to spy on him in turn?" Anduin, I hope you will soon fall into the arms of the Lord. ”

Anduin didn't have time to guess about the archbishop's thoughts, because he had just returned to the manor when he welcomed a group of special guestsβ€”workers from the Silver Fort Building Society.

When Anduin teleported to the Silver Fortress, he reached a deal with the Architectural Association and strictly completed his design and plan, and he was paid a lot of money, and for the sake of the two vitality crystals as a deposit, the president of the Masons Guild personally stepped in and brought several skilled players.

"Pastor Anduin, congratulations on becoming Lord Stormstorm, we have brought the crystal generator and other items you want, without further ado, you can get to work now!"

The head of the stonemason is named Van Cleef, that is, the head of the Defia Brotherhood in the World of Warcraft, the Great Fan of Hearthstone, in order not to repeat the mistakes of the past, the genius stonemason is forced to fall into the grass, Anduin has set aside enough funds early, and is always on the lookout for the arrival of some suspicious characters.

Afterwards, the townsfolk of Stormwind looked at the manor in the town with great confusion, the new lord actually began to renovate the house drastically on the second day of his tenure, not only that, but they also saw that Anduin did it himself, basically every detail of the change had to be personally instructed, if it were not for the excellent quality of these craftsmen, the progress was destined to be extremely slow, but it was not until the evening that they heard that the overall renovation was only one-fifth completed.

Normally, similar projects only take two or three days, but the president and the people are so slow, it can be seen that Anduin is so demanding, and a question immediately came to everyone's minds, seeing that such a big move and no intention of building a foundation is not like an ordinary rest house.

The archbishop, who intends to influence Anduin's faith, is also confused about Anduin's purpose, but he is not worried that his plan will go awry, because without Bervar and Fordin, only his voice will exist in Stormwind.
