Chapter 525: The Identity of the Night Elves
The Eternal Kingdom of Quel'Salas.
When Onexia returns to the elven kingdom hidden in the enchantment, she can't wait to come to the Well of the Sun.
Today, the Well of the Sun still shines with a warm glow on the land, so that most of the elves who live in this land are unaware that the prince they sing about has been covered in a curse.
The island of Queldanus is heavily guarded, and even Onexia has to filter through many enchantments to be spared by the island's elite troops.
She ran impatiently into the familiar hall, but was surprised by what she saw.
Pitch-black vines like steel emerged from the surging spring water, densely intertwined, completely obscuring the true body of Kael'thas floating in mid-air.
Without a glimmer of golden light emanating from within, proving his safety, the spectacle would have broken anyone's heart.
Seeing the curse Sylvanas spoke of was a completely different feeling
"Little one, I'll save you."
Onexia's hands lit up with flames, which then condensed into tiny fireballs that she wanted to get rid of.
"Wait!"
However, a group of Wang family mages who saw her movements ran over in shock.
"Onexia-sama, don't attack!"
"Please calm down!"
They rushed in front of Onexia and blocked the way.
"What are you doing?"
Onexia was a little unhappy with the movements of these mages, but she still stopped her hand sensibly:
"Is there anything wrong with that vine?"
The mages collectively breathed a sigh of relief, and then sent a representative to answer Onexia's questions.
The black vines are the outward manifestation of Kil'Gardan's curse, and it's like a mystical combination of evil powers: a system of curses that self-improves.
If an outsider does not have the strength to completely remove the curse and easily strikes at the vine, the vine will take damage, but it will also absorb the experience of this damage and become stronger, and it will grow again in a matter of moments.
What's even more terrifying is that the vines that grow back will become resistant to previous attacks and will not be subject to the same attacks again.
"And what are you going to do now?"
After listening to the explanation, Onexia asked the mages with a cold face:
"Do you just leave it alone?"
This sentence really broke the hearts of many Wang family mages, from ancient times to the present, the high elves have been unique in the study of magic. Every elf who becomes a mage of the royal family is the pride of the sky. The heart is full of pride.
But this time, they really tried to break their heads, and they didn't find a way to lift the curse.
"For the sake of today, it is the best way to let His Highness use the power of the Well of the Sun to slowly devour the curse."
His sideburns were slightly white, and the old mage of a certain age stepped forward to break the silence.
What he said sounded meaningless to Onexia, but fortunately he hadn't finished yet.
"In fact, His Highness's curse is not an unsolvable method, perhaps because it was launched in a hurry, and we found a lot of loopholes in it."
"Those loopholes are mainly exposed to the past people of the cursed, as long as they have a certain foundation. can solve the curse on the loopholes through our teachings. β
Onexia was stunned.
Before she could show her joy, a wave of cold water extinguished the flame seed.
"However, this curse was cast by Kil'Gardan on his deathbed, and his power is too great"
The old mage's expression was gloomy, and he lowered his voice imperceptibly:
"That power is enough to close the curse's loophole, unless he can find the strength not far from him to break through from the outside. Otherwise, His Highness can only rely on the power of the Well of the Sun to slowly devour the curse. β
Finding the power that is not far from Kil'Gardan is simply a fantasy.
Aside from the destroyed World Tree before, who else in this world is not far from Kil'Gardan in terms of strength?
Deathwing may be able to, but obviously it can't help, and the second World Tree, Teddashir, that the Night Elves now wield, doesn't have that much power.
That's why the mages are helpless - no one in the world itself can save Kael'thas.
"No way"
Onexia felt a little lost in her heart, and she looked up at Kael'thas who was wrapped in vines like a dumpling, and her eyes showed a deep sense of worry.
"But can the power of the Well of the Sun really lift the curse?"
If it happens, isn't the little guy she likes unsaved?
"Don't worry."
The old master replied in the affirmative:
"The Well of the Sun continues to absorb arcane energy in the Void, and now the curse has stalled. It won't take two years to be completely expelled from it. β
Two years is just an approximate number.
No one outside of Kael'thas can monitor how quickly the Well of the Sun absorbs energy. So this number is a conservative estimate by the elven mages, and the time to actually lift the curse will definitely be shorter than two years.
"That's good."
Onexia felt a little better.
She stood next to the well and looked up for a long time. In the end, Kael'thas was not seen coming out or making a sound.
[Maybe the Jade Dream is busy]
She came to this conclusion and turned away.
She returns to Silvermoon City to complete the work given to her by Sylvanas, and wants to rush to the Emerald Dream Realm to help Kael'thas sooner.
Before coming to the Well of the Sun, the Black Dragon Princess had sent a message to Sylvanas, another member of the Tower of the Sun, asking her to call back a few people from Draenor to help with something, and now she may have an eyebrow.
Sure enough, Onexia had just entered the Tower of the Sunrise when she met a familiar person, Aurelia.
"It's you"
The Black Dragon Princess was a little surprised, she saw the female ranger with sweat on her face, and it was obvious that Aurelia had hurried all the way over.
After taking Draenor, Quel'Thalas plans to rebuild a portal directly to Shattrath so that outside forces don't block the route to the Cursed Lands - but the new teleportation array has not yet been built.
Therefore, Aurelia must have jumped all the way through the original few old portals when she returned to Silvermoon City, and her speed was surprisingly fast.
"Sylvanas is in need, let me help."
When Aurelia saw Onyxia, she immediately approached her and told her.
When she learned that Sylvanas of Lordaeron needed help, Aurelia's sister-in-control spirit immediately burst into flames, and she threw aside all her tasks and rushed back without stopping.
"Leave that to me!"
Aurelia grabbed the Black Dragon Princess's hand and continued to oppress her.
Onexia gets goosebumps one after another when she is suddenly so enthusiastic about Aurelia.
"Okay, okay, you let me go!"
She wrenched free from Aurelia's grasp and waved her arms in disgust.
"I'll tell you what she's asking for."
After relieving herself, Onexia said to Aurelia seriously:
"She wanted someone to help her get a weapon. And the location she has already investigated. β
The Black Dragon Princess took out a piece of paper from her chest and handed it to Aurelia:
"This is the area."
Aurelia opened the paper and looked at it. It's not a particularly dangerous place.
She rolled it up and put it on her body, then asked:
"What weapon does she want?"
Aurelia is confident that she can snatch her sister Sylvanas from whatever she wants.
"Well, I think it's called the Luna Scythe."
"yes, that's the name."
Onexia hesitated for a long time before remembering the name, the scythe is a very rare weapon in this world, but fortunately, its name is very prominent called the 'Luna Scythe'.
Sylvanas didn't tell her what the Luna Scythe did. But Onexia had a vague sense of familiarity.
She seemed to have heard of this weapon, a long, long time ago
It seems to have something to do with the druids and the Emerald Dream

On the other side, the Blackstone Tower.
In the depths of the dark city, in the darkest halls, Deathwing sits alone on the throne.
A dark mirror image floated in front of him.
"The Human Queen and the Night Elf Man?"
He made a confused voice, this was to determine whether the other party had made a mistake.
"Yes. The people who just appeared in the Emerald Dream Realm, they are very powerful, and it is a little strange Do you recognize these two people? β
From within the mirror came a low, hoarse voice - it was Harveys, the Lord of Nightmares.
ββ
Deathwing frowned in thought.
"Are you sure that's the Human Queen? The one with the ponytail? β
He continued to ask, his heart fluttering slightlyβas if expecting Harvis's affirmation.
"The one holding the Sword of Light in his hand is no one else except that person, right?"
Harvey was sure.
Deathwing froze, then the corners of his mouth curled.
He knew roughly who the Night Elf man was.
Sure enough, he had no place to find the iron shoes, and it didn't take much effort to get it, he didn't expect that the cursed Kael'thas would run to the Emerald Dream by himself.
The Elven Prince is Deathwing's greatest enemy today, and Deathwing has been collecting information about him for many years, and is now arguably the person who knows Kael'thas best.
By the way. Of course, he also knew about Kalia's relationship with Kael'thas.
During the Hyjal Holy War, there was an affair between the Night Elves and Kalia. Deathwing doesn't care at first, but Akmund's sudden death later makes him suspect the identity of the Night Elves.
Looking back now. Isn't that Night Elf supposed to be Kael'thas?
Although Deathwing didn't know how he had left the Well of Eternity incarnation and entered the Emerald Dream, that didn't stop him from deciding.
"Harvis, I guessed the identity of the Night Elf."
A sly glint flashed in Deathwing's eyes, and he chuckled in a low voice:
"But for the sake of caution, let's make sure that if it's confirmed, this is the biggest fish."
"He will be of great value to you and me, much greater than Malfurion"
