Chapter 33: The King's Hunt
A day later, Varian was sitting on his throne in the throne room, and he was now one with the other half.
Originally, the archbishop planned to send someone to invite the archmage of Dalaran to cast a spell to fuse, but Lagash refused.
After obtaining Rai's heart, the Great Guardian's endless mana and even the arcane knowledge in his memory have been inherited by Lagash, and he only read Gianna's spell book to understand the model of this spell, and he can even improve it and do it better.
This is the case with this fusion, the spell works perfectly, and at this moment, Varian is not only one, but if necessary, he can also split into two more clones, fight together, and deal with other things together.
At this very moment, the newborn king is meditating on the throne.
The heart of the Great Guardian bestows him not only with strength and knowledge, but also with wisdom.
After reading a large amount of information sent by Madias, after asking many maids and soldiers one by one, and then synthesizing the memories in his mind after the reunion with Claudia, he had already guessed what happened to Claudia in his heart.
"Shadow...... Black Winged ...... Monster Army...... Shadow Witch ...... Gods of the Ancients. ”
Varian covered his forehead with his right hand and let out a sigh.
At this moment, he already understood how difficult Claudia's corruption was, and how much trouble Claudia would cause once the truth was exposed, and once it was not handled well, it was possible for the whole world to be enemies.
But so what?
Varian didn't care about those things, he only cared about one thing now, where the hell Claudia was, and he was anxious to find her, help her, and save her.
"From what I've learned, all the changes started in Angela, and it looks like I'm going to have to go to Angela once."
Varian had decided, Angela was Cthun's prison, and Azadas, the Guardian who was close to Claudia, was there, where he should be able to find some useful clues.
While the king was pondering, the lieutenant came over and handed over a document on the state of the battle in Gilneth, which had been withdrawn by Varian after the merging ceremony yesterday, and it was only natural that this document would be sent to him for his purpose.
Varian took the paper, looked at it a few times, and set it aside.
Gilneth was beaten badly, but so what? What does this have to do with him? He had never had a good impression of King Jean.
For Varian, it was enough to protect his wife and children, govern his country, and at most do the necessary duties for his allies, and he was never interested in the banner of humanity.
Especially now, he cares more about his wife's whereabouts than he helps Greyman, who is helping to deal with himself.
But one person apparently didn't think so, and at lunch with Anduin at noon, Anduin was extremely concerned about Gilnehs's current situation.
"Is it because of the Greymane daughter? I've heard that you've been with her for two months, and I've heard that she's a pretty little lady. ”
Varian tried to lighten up the conversation, but Anduin's immature face still looked worried.
"It's not just because Tess, Father, I've heard about what happened in Lordaeron, once the city of Gilneth falls, it's hard for me to accept the thought that those horrible things will happen to the people of Gilney, I wish I was grown up now and could use my own hands to help the people there and stop the atrocities of the Scourge Legion."
"I understand your feelings, Anduin," Varian instructed disapprovingly, "but you need to understand that the Gilneys are neither our people nor our allies, and we may be able to help them a little if we can, but we can't afford to invest too much, and protecting our own people is the most important thing." ”
Anduin was silent for a moment, then took a different view, "No, Father, if it were to be handled according to your opinion, King Terenus should not have taken you and our people in more than twenty years ago, but he did everything in his power to help us, even though those people were 'neither his people nor his allies'"
Varian was stunned for a moment before he burst out laughing, his attitude changing slightly, and although he was still dismissive of Anduin's sympathy, he had to admit that the current form did have a resemblance to that of more than twenty years ago, and gave him some inspiration.
Over the past year, Anduin has grown a lot.
Varian was faintly proud, and then remembered a message he saw in the morning, his heart moved, and he said, "Anduin, do you want to go to Ironforge to play?" ”
"To Ironforge?" Anduin looked a little incredulous, but he quickly reacted and said excitedly, "Of course I want to go, Father, I've always wanted to go to Ironforge to learn about the Explorers' Guild and their most precious collections, and maybe I can talk to some members." ”
"Come with me when you're done eating, kid, we're going to see King Magni this afternoon, and I'm going to discuss something with him, and Lady Paltris, she's woken up from her coma yesterday, and we're going to have to visit her."
"Auntie is awake? That's great! Anduin had a palpable look of joy on his face, but he quickly noticed the word, "Afternoon?" ”
"That's right, son, your dad will take you with him in the afternoon." Varian smiled and touched his son's head.
With the power of Zilai, Varian teleported Anduin and Arthur, who had been promoted to officer, to Ironforge shortly after the meal, but he stayed at Ironforge for a while before leaving, and Arthur was left by him to accompany and protect Anduin, and he himself came to Angela.
Varian's brow furrowed as he recalled his experience, one of the purposes of his visit to Ironforge was to learn more about the Shadow Witch when she first appeared.
Magni was fine, not much different from the information gathered by MI7, but it was different on Partris's side, she was a good boy who had never lied, although she tried to cover it up, but how could she hide it from Varian, and it didn't take long for Varian to tell the truth under Varian's repeated questioning, and pitifully tried to intercede for her sister.
After comforting his sister-in-law, Varian came to Angela and thought about the words that Partris had just confessed.
Why did Claudia hurt her favorite sister? What's going on? When I saw her, she was normal, but was she only going to lose control at certain times? That's why she had to fake her death and leave me and the children?
Varian guessed as he walked towards Angela's gate, intending to gather more information before making his judgment.
But soon, he had to stop in shock, and before his eyes, a transparent seal appeared, and with the memory of Lai, Varian quickly recognized who had cast the seal.
Hela? The witch who created the Four Elemental Realms with Rai in the first place, how could she get involved?
Wari's confusion and confusion deepened.
