Chapter 160: Silvermoon City (I)
When Wang Peng arrived at the port of Silvermoon City and witnessed the magnificence of Silvermoon City with his own eyes, Wang Peng was stunned!
Silvermoon City is located in the northernmost part of the Eastern Kingdom continent of Azeroth, the capital of Quel'Thalas, once home to the High Elves, located in the northern part of the rich Yongsong Forest, led by the Sunstrider Dynasty, with the House of Elders, and the Silvermoon Rangers responsible for the city's defenses. Silvermoon City www.biquge.info is the embodiment of the High Elves' tens of thousands of years of high civilization, where the High Elves trade, research, study, and deal with the attacks of the Amani trolls in the east. Dense forests to the northeast lead to the sacred heights of the Well of the Sun. The blood elves announced their withdrawal from the alliance after the Second **** War, and later joined the tribal camp.
Now Silvermoon City has been rebuilt on the eastern side of the Plague Scar on the original ruins, and has become the new home of the Blood Elves. It covers half the size, but there's no denying that it's still the world's largest and most beautiful main city in Azeroth.
"The Scourge once occupied the city, but abandoned it when it depleted its resources. There was a time when it was dead silent, and it was almost an empty ghost town except for the dead plants. From time to time, people walk through the cobblestone paths, and only the spirits of the sad elves can be seen. The only visitors to the city are treasure hunters who come here in search of our treasures. But the ghosts that roam Silvermoon make it extremely difficult for the thieves to move. Liadlin said as she led Wang Peng and Yan Xi, as well as the Blood Elf soldiers behind her, towards the direction of Silver Moon City.
Along the way, Wang Peng was able to see that similar to the Silvermoon City in the game, the original Silvermoon City had been destroyed by the Scourge Legion led by Arthas, and the current Silvermoon City was built by the later blood elves along the ruins of the original east, and the former site of the once prosperous Silvermoon City in the west has been reduced to a ruin at this moment, called the Silvermoon Ruins. The presence of dangerous Heartbreakers and Arcane Patrolmen roaming the ruins of Silvermoon makes this place extremely dangerous, but they do not attack Silvermoon City.
Liadline led a group of men across the avenue to the gates of Silvermoon City.
It seems that because of the lessons of the destruction of Silvermoon City, the walls of Silvermoon City are very tall and thick, with the banners of blood elves fluttering on them, and the soldiers guarding them are very conscientious. Seeing the return of General Liadline was immediately a tribute.
"Welcome back, Lord Regent has been waiting for you for a long time." An adjutant stepped forward to greet General Liadline with great respect.
"Okay. Radus, you lead the two of them to find a place to stay, and I'll go to them when I'm done reporting to Lotherma. Liadline said to the adjutant.
Wang Peng glanced at the adjutant, and saw that it was a somewhat old male blood elf, wearing a purple robe, and he was respectful in front of Liadrin.
Once the High Elves relied on the power of the Well of the Sun to have a very long life. The Well of the Sun was once a repository of powerful magical energy that covered the entire Quel'Salas region. It was created by the High Elves using water from a bottle of the Well of Eternity that Illidan Fury had taken out of the Well of Eternity. However, when Arthas polluted the Well of the Sun in order to resurrect Kel'thugad, and Kael'thas eventually destroyed the Well of the Sun, the Blood Elves lost their source of magic and thus their vitality.
And the adjutant named Raders also glanced at Wang Peng and Yan Xi, who were actually two human beings? Raders also had doubts in his heart, but since it was brought by General Liadrin, there must be no problem.
"You two follow Radus first, he will settle everything for you, take this, it will keep you safe in Silvermoon City. But it's better to be careful. Liadlin said to Wang Peng and Yan Xi, and then handed them two Blood Elf Logo Badges, ""
"Okay." Wang Peng replied.
Then, Liadlin rode directly to Silvermoon City.
After entering Silver Moon City, Wang Peng and Yan Xi's most obvious feeling was that in an instant, their surroundings were filled with a powerful magic force! It was as if there was a layer of enchantment enveloping Silver Moon City, and Wang Peng couldn't feel anything outside the city gate, but as soon as he passed through the gate, there was a magic force that suffocated him. But feeling this powerful magic power, Yan Xi frowned, this magic contained a trace of evil power!
"Come with me, then, both of you." Rades said as he led the way.
Wang Pengjing watched this strange city from a distance.
As former High Elves, Blood Elves have the exact opposite beliefs to Night Elves. The Night Elves believe in the moon god and nature, so there is very little daylight on the territory of the Night Elves, and the Night Elves live in very wooded places to avoid the sun, so they naturally get close to the forces of nature. And the blood elves, which is a race that worships the sun, is also the origin of the name of the Well of the Sun.
Therefore, I saw that most of the buildings in this city are sun-like colors, and the style of the buildings is also very warm, due to the worship and desire of the blood elves for arcane energy, traces of magic can be seen everywhere in the city, suspended arrow towers, crystals, flower pots, etc. Wang Peng looked at the crystal that emitted an evil green light, and Wang Peng understood that it was the evil energy crystal that Kael'thas - Sunstrider had brought from the Outlands.
After the Blood Elves lost the Well of the Sun, they suffered from extreme demonic concealment, and Kyleas finally surrendered to Illidan and sent the Evil Energy Crystal and Naru to Silvermoon City, which eventually became the current source of energy for the Blood Elves.
Walking down the street, Wang Peng noticed that it seemed that in the entire Silver Moon City, except for the blood elves or blood elves, there were no other races in sight.
"Ahh It's no surprise to you, Silvermoon City is surrounded by the sea on three sides, and the south is blocked by the Plague Lands, so there are very few people from other races, let alone humans. Rades said, leading Wang Peng and the others around a street corner. The blood elves on the street all cast different glances at the two humans, but when they saw that they were wearing badges representing the glory of the blood elves on their chests, they felt very strange.
In the end, Rades led Wang Peng and the two to a very luxurious and magnificent hotel.
Rades said a few words to the boss, and finally very warmly invited the two to stay at the hotel.
"Stay here now, I have already instructed the master, and they will arrange your food and lodging properly, and I will go back and tell the countess that you live here, and if there is anything to do with the innkeeper, he will do it for you." Rades said to Wang Peng and Yan Xi very respectfully.
――
Wang Peng found that the room of the blood elves was completely different from the structure of humans, and the structure of their houses was very ethereal and had an artistic beauty. Because of magic, their houses are not even built according to the rules of physics.
"Peng, the magic here has the smell of evil energy, and the blood elves will definitely slowly corrupt after a long time." Yan Xi felt the magical energy around him, staring out the window at the evil energy crystal suspended in mid-air.
"Don't worry, according to the history of World of Warcraft, the blood elves, as a member of the tribe, will definitely be fine, but who knows? Blizzard's dad can make Ryan, Medivan, and Arthas all die, and maybe someone will be turned against the Burning Legion at some point. Wang Peng said and went to bed comfortably!
From Treasure Bay to Silver Moon City, it was almost half a planet away, and even with the ocean current and the power of magic, Wang Peng and Yan Xi spent half a month on the battleship. During the time at sea, except for Liadelin talking about the history of the blood elves and then discussing the various tribes today, she could only stand on the deck with Yan Xi and look at the vast sea.
Seriously, the first time he went to sea, Wang Peng finally found out that he was seasick!
So the experience was very painful!
――
Silvermoon City, the Tower of the Sunwrath in the northwest corner.
In the middle of the huge council chamber, Liadline hurried in.
"Liadrin, you're finally back."
A silver-haired, blue-eyed blood elf man was surprised to see Liadline walk in. I saw that this adult blood elf man was tall and strong, and he was powerful. The stern face carries the majesty of a king. This is the regent of Silvermoon City, Lotherma Theron.
The resourceful Lotherma Theron was originally a ranger under Sylvanas Windranger, defending the High Elves in battle after battle. This includes the invasion of Azeroth by the Old Horde, territorial feuds with the Amani trolls, and the terrifying undead monsters of the Scourge Legion. When Sylvanas was killed and the High Elves were routed by Arthas's men, Lotharma resisted and helped the survivors regroup, and Prince Kael'thas returned with Lotharma as regent to assist the prince in rebuilding his home.
In addition, Lotherma Theron is also the lover of Countess Liadline, and the two have endured hardships and lived and died together.
"Yes." Liadline said.
At this moment, in the chamber, out of Lotherma Theron, there were two other people standing.
Dressed in magnificent armor, with a short sword at his waist and long orange-yellow hair, he looked much younger than Lotherma. This man's name is Haduron Brightwing, the current Silvermoon City Ranger General, Ranger is a traditional class of blood elves to defend their country, Haduron Mingyi is a young and talented Ranger who showed his qualities as a Ranger in the face of trolls and the invasion of the Scourge, so when Kael'thas set foot in the Outlands, he was appointed as the new Silvermoon City Ranger General.
The other, with a fuchsia robe, a collar that was high above the chin that covered half of his face, short hair that was different from that of Lothima and Hadurun, and a pair of cold and haughty eyes. This man was Rothman, the leader of the Blood Elf Mages. Rothman was a loyal servant of Prince Kael'thas, and when Prince Kael'thas led his army south to meet with the human general Garithars, Rothman was the only one of the three who followed the prince, and then the prince was framed by Garriss, and eventually Rothman followed Prince Kael'thas to the Outlands, and finally the prince sent him to Silvermoon City to send evil energy crystals and spells to extract magical energy.
These three people are in charge of the control of Silvermoon City, so they are known as the Big Three of Silvermoon City. Although Liadelin is powerful, the Blood Knight is only a newly emerging profession after all, and its power is not particularly strong.
Seeing Liadline's return, both Haduron and Rothman were very pleased.
"Unfortunately, this operation failed." Liadline recounted the raid on Zurgrab to the trio.
"What, it failed!" A hint of consternation flashed in the eyes of all three of Lotherma.
"That's right, the former troll ruins of Zul Grab are already home to a group of powerful trolls, enslaved by the evil god Hakka summoned by the troll priests, and these trolls seem to be planning some kind of conspiracy. The power of the evil god Haka exceeded my expectations, and unfortunately, the soldiers I brought with me never returned, and I almost never came. Liadrin's eyes were filled with the Blood Elven soldiers who had died tragically in front of her.
"Damn orcs, we're the only ones who have done our best to deal with the trolls, but they still haven't moved!" Lotherma said with a frown.
"Yes, although we received an invitation from General Sylvanas to join the Horde, the fact that the orcs once united with the Amani trolls to attack Silvermoon City is still in front of us." Haduron said indignantly.
Sylvanas Windrunner, the second sister of the three sisters of the Blood Elven Windrunner family and a powerful ranger general who once guarded Quel'Thalas, was killed by Arthas himself and resurrected as a banshee when Arthas led the Scourge to attack Silvermoon City. Later, when Illidan attacked the Ice Throne, Sylvanas took control of the Lich King and led a large number of recovered undead to revolt and break away from the Scourge Legion. Calling themselves the Forsaken, they occupied the sewers of what was once the main city of the human kingdom of Lordaeron and named it the Undercity.
Later, the Forsaken joined the Horde, and through Sylvanas, the Blood Elves were able to join the Horde.
The relationship between the undead and the blood elves is very different, on the one hand, the blood elves were slaughtered by the Scourge legion, and on the other hand, Sylvanas, although he is the identity of the undead, spares no effort to help his fellow blood elves. As former Sylvanas's subordinates, both Haduron and Lotherma have a strange affection for the Banshee King.
"I escaped from Zulghrab, but Hakka continued to chase after me, and I was able to survive thanks to two humans." Liadline looked at Lotherma with some trepidation, and there was warmth in her eyes, she almost never saw him again.
"Two humans?"
"That's right, the two are just young people in their 20s. (To be continued.) )
