Chapter 15: The Traveling Mage
The Land of Spirits, Taquiline.
Over time, the black curtain that covered the mountains was slowly removed, revealing a green forest. The rolling hills in the distance are painted with a line of gold, and the early birds sing the rich green of life among the trees. The flowing morning sun flooded the mountains and crossed the trees, and the first rays of light fell on the walls of the town hall north of the city.
It wasn't until the third day after the end of the war that Roland slowly woke up from the darkness that seemed to be isolated, and the five senses that had been silent began to work again. In the haze, he seemed to hear the chirping of birds, and smelled a faint aroma, was it time to get up? No, I remember there was a war before? The chaotic fragments of memories slowly converged in the young man's mind, forming a complete and orderly line.
The last thing I saw was Sylvanas' face? He was a little suspicious, but he slowly opened his eyes. The sunlight from the purple veil was a little harsh, and Roland had to squint.
Familiar ceiling, young people remember the room of this military camp in the south of the city. Eyes turned around the room, and there was no one else. It seems that I am still alive, and Roland is finally relieved. However, he had a new fear: Is the war over? What happened to Sylvanas?
The young man felt his body and wanted to get up, but he felt his body become a little detached. So he didn't move anymore, but shouted out the system in his heart. In less than a second, a series of system prompts consisting of a green light curtain appeared in the lower right corner of the line of sight.
"By using the Light to attack your enemies, you have learned the attack of Divine Energy and have learned the skill: Divine Judgment."
"Holy Judgment [Attack Skill]: Paladins are good at using the power of holy light to fight enemies, and the damage to the enemy can be increased by imbuing the holy energy on the weapon, and the corresponding weapon must be proficient before infusing the holy energy."
"Divine matter is being absorbed, and energy is distributed to exclusive modules in a seventh-ratio ratio."
"Open the exclusive item: Divination Cards."
"Open the sub-professional brigade mage, open the mana pool."
"There are a total of 78 Destiny cards, including 22 main cards and 56 secondary cards. Find out more on your own. ”

"Fate cards? Brigade Mage? Roland muttered in his heart, ready to find out the details later, because he heard a sound of footsteps. A short time later, a blonde-haired elven ranger pushed open the door and walked in.
It was Sylvanas who came in. She looked like she was fine, thinking to herself, as Roland turned his gaze to the two High Elves beside him, Passaren and an older elf with a staff in hand.
The female ranger had a bright smile on her face, her voice was like a lark on the tip of a grass, and her eyes were full of happiness and joy. "Roland, you're awake!"
The young man nodded, his gaze turned to the strange elven mage, and there was just the right hint of confusion.
"This is my mentor, Master Mephistopheles", seeing that the young man was safe and sound, Passarene seemed relieved, and introduced the young man, "He heard from General Aurelia about your performance in this battle, and was very interested in your skills in using the Holy Light in battle. ”
Seeing the peaceful looks on the faces of the two, Roland understood that the war should have ended, but he still asked uneasily: "We won?" ”
"That's right, the Dragon Eagle Knights have wiped out all the trolls in Taquilin two days ago, and now the kingdom's troops are planning to go to Zuaman to eliminate the trolls." The strange old man answered the young man's question for Passaren.
Zu Aman? The High Elves actually counterattacked? Roland felt incredulous, but instead of talking, he looked at Passaren's mentor and said, "I wonder if the master has heard of the paladin in the mouth of the Adventist?" ”
"A warrior who uses the Light in battle?" Mephistopheles looked pensive before she came back to her senses, "You mean you've become a paladin like they say?" ”
"No, I just managed to infuse the Holy Light on the sword and attack in a hurry." Roland shook his head. As the old saying goes, "People are afraid of being famous, pigs are afraid of being strong", and he didn't want to compete with Archbishop Alonsos Fao for invention rights.
"Even then, it's already rare." The old mage did not show a disappointed look, but comforted the young man, "In time, you may not be able to become the warrior of the holy light in their mouths. ”
Having received the answer he wanted, the old mage did not stay long, leaving Passaren and Sylvanas to accompany the young man who had just turned, and left in a hurry. From their mouths, Roland learned about the current situation in Quel'Thalas.
With the help of Mephistopheles, who arrived in a hurry, and the Dragon Eagle Knight, who followed closely behind, the remaining trolls of Taquilin were completely wiped out, and Lady Oliphilos, who had escaped because she was in Silvermoon City, began to work on the reconstruction of Taquiline. As a result of Zurgin's sacrifice in the center of Taquirim, the rebuilt town will have a stronger defense and a larger garrison.
The reformers, led by Anastarian Sunchaser and Mephistopheles, used the incident to force the Defense Act: all High Elf mages except for the royal family must allocate residency rights to the Sunwell Heights and Magister Platforms based on the time they have been stationed, rather than by their rank.
In other words, a lower mage is also able to have the power to be close to the radiance of the Well of the Sun. Want to stay by the Well of the Sun? No problem, let's go to the Wraith Land first, you can stay in the Wraith Land for a few years, and you will gain a few years of residency in Queldanus. The first to respond to this bill were the large number of mages of the Silvermoon Mage Society, led by Mephistopheles.
Of course, this kind of coercive measure will inevitably cause dissatisfaction among a large number of high-level mages within the kingdom who have vested interests, so the royal family and the Silvermoon Mage Council announced that they will open some private books according to the mage's rank and the number of years they have been stationed in the place, that is, to use knowledge to envelop these guys who have little emotional intelligence.
As a result of this law, a large number of mages followed the kingdom's army into the Wraith Lands, and after clearing out the trolls near Taquilin, they drove directly to Zuaman, southeast of the Wraiths. Although there has been no battle report so far, the kingdom is clearly confident in this attack.
But none of this is what he needs to care about, there is only one thing he cares about most, and that is the southward journey. He wanted to meet Archbishop Alonthos Fao, a saint among the human race, the legendary Anduin Lothar, and more importantly, he wanted to confirm the news of the orcs and verify that this world was the Azeroth he remembered.
"By the way, Sylvanas, do you still want to go to the human kingdom to verify the prophecy of the Advent?" Looking at the lively female ranger in front of her, Roland asked.
"No, the casualties of the rangers this time are very large, and I want to help my sister expand the team." Sylvanas shook her head, looking a little downcast, but she quickly curled the corners of her mouth again, "But for me, it's no longer necessary to prophecy if it's true, because a fool told me never to despair of myself. ”
