Chapter 22: Dalaran at Night
The night sky in Dalaran is unlike any other place, and here the night sky is faintly dyed a lilac. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
As the center of magic and arcane research for the entire human race, and as the land with the densest concentration of magic net energy nodes in almost the entire continent, magic is almost everywhere here.
Gianna Proudmoore sat quietly on the roof of a spire, humming a mezzire cheerfully. Ever since she left Kurtilas seven years ago to study here, she has been fascinated by almost everything about it. Especially after Archmage Antonidas took her as an apprentice a year ago, she felt like she had learned so much!
She was holding a letter in her hand, and now she was seriously looking at the contents of the letter by the light of the street lamp, and a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth from time to time. A carrier pigeon with the royal insignia of Lordaeron engraved on it was also resting on her shoulder.
It was sent by her best friend Arthas, and the letter contained many trivial things, such as Arthas's detailed account of his baptism at the hand of Tyre...... Reading between the lines, Gianna can also feel his pride and pride!
In fact, this communication takes place between them every two weeks!
There was a sound of slow footsteps behind her, and Gianna felt it, so she quickly put the letter back into her mage robes.
"In Quel'Thalas, the night sky will shine brighter than in Dalaran!" A suave voice came from behind him.
Gianna turned around and bowed lightly to the elf behind her: "Hello, Your Royal Highness! ”
The one who came was the elven prince Kael'thas - Sunstrider from Quel'Thalas, who smiled and nodded, and continued, "In fact, we have created a new sun in Quel'Thallas through arcane energy, which can make the night sky as bright as the day if we want to. If you could see it with your own eyes one day, you would be amazed! ”
"It's a great honor, I think I will ......"
As the royal daughter of Kul Tiras, Gianna was very good at dealing with nobles from a young age, but she always felt a little awkward when facing Prince Kael'thas.
Kael'thas was handsome, elegant and gentle at the same time, and Gianna could have used all the compliments she knew on him. Although he is about the same age as himself on the surface, he is actually much older. At the same time, Kael'thas is an extremely powerful mage, and it is even rumored that he is a member of the Council of Six, the top leadership of Kenrito.
However, when staying with Kael'thas, Gianna could clearly feel the restraint of the other party, which was the real reason for making her feel awkward.
"What a beautiful carrier pigeon!" Kael'thas gently stroked the carrier pigeon on Gianna's shoulder!
Gianna smiled, knowing full well that Prince Kael'thas was deliberately looking for something to resonate with. She replied, "yes, it'......"
Gianna suddenly felt a change in Prince Kael'thas expression.
Kael'thas touched the Royal Insignia of Lordaeron on the carrier pigeon.
"Your Royal Highness?" Gianna asked, a little confused.
"I told you before, I'd rather you call me Kyle!"
"Uh...... Kyle...... What's the matter at such a late hour? ”
Kael'thas squinted at Gianna, a trace of sorrow suddenly flashed in the corner of his eye, and he paused: "Archmage Antonidas wants you to come over, he has something to look for you!" ”
It's so late, the teacher actually has something to find himself, so he must be very promoted.
However, she still did not forget the etiquette: "Then Your Royal Highness, thank you very much for informing me, I will go first!" ”
With that, she hurried towards Violet Castle.
……
The city lord of Dalaran, the archmage Antonidas, was sitting in the Violet Castle, looking a little tired.
Beside him stood another member of the Council of Six, Archmage Modra.
Seeing that Modra, who was almost the oldest mage in the entire Kenrito, was also here at this time, Gianna had already vaguely guessed what was going on!
"Teacher...... And, Miss Modra! She greeted softly.
"Gianna, my child, you're here!" Seeing Gianna's arrival, a smile flashed across Antonidas' tired face.
"Is it about Moni-senpai?" Gianna asked tentatively.
"That's right!" Archmage Modra replied with a blank face.
"Isn't Moni-senpai awake yet!" Gianna was a little surprised.
There was no word, and it seemed that this was indeed the case.
Three days ago, Archmage Modra had returned to Dalaran with her disciple Polly Moni, who had fallen into a coma.
Moni was originally sent by her to carry out a mission to search for an orc warlock, but unexpectedly she was attacked by the warlock, and the archmage Modra found it in time through the energy transmission of the magic net, and then rushed to her side, and then found her completely unconscious.
Several high-level spell scrolls on Moni's body have all been triggered, and if it weren't for the spell scrolls of the Ice Barrier, I'm afraid she would have been dead at this time. But even so, she had completely lost consciousness after the attack of the Warlock's evil spell.
"It's an insult to the whole of Kenrito!" Archmage Modra said with some indignation, at such an old age, her temper is so big.
"Don't worry, Modra!" Antonidas said calmly, "Gianna came here to ask her to thoroughly investigate this time, and at the same time to capture the warlock back to Violet Prison." ”
Gianna probably understood what was going on, and it wasn't actually the first time she had performed such a task.
"But Monnie-senpai is still unconscious, and I can't learn anything about that warlock!" Gianna asked, a little embarrassed.
"Don't worry, my child!" Antonidas glanced at his disciple kindly: "When poor Moni was searching for this warlock, there was a companion who was a priest of Lordaeron Cathedral, and you can learn some information about this matter through him!" ”
"Okay, I see, teacher!" Gianna nodded.
"Good luck, kid!"
