Chapter Forty-Nine: Medivan Appears
Jiang Weihan kept thinking of various idioms to describe the encounter at this moment: the peaks and loops turned, the willows and flowers were bright, first suppressed and then raised, and the desire to promote first suppressed ......
The results of his persuasion far exceeded his expectations. Not only did he fool the five councillors, but he also managed to infiltrate the top of Dalaran - what an unexpected surprise!
"I'm willing to join!"
"I must remind you that the Kenrito Council represents not only a right, but also a heavy responsibility. We have an obligation to collate, collect, and share all kinds of spell materials, and we have a responsibility to eliminate the damage and influence of evil spells on our world. Are you sure you can carry such a burden? β
Jiang Weihan took a deep breath: "I'm sure!" β
"So," Antonidas walked up to him, tapping his staff lightly on his chest, "welcome to one of us, Jiang Weihan!" β
A thought was transmitted from the staff to Jiang Weihan's mind. He felt as if he had opened a door to Violet - he had been a guest in the city of mages, and now he was the master. As long as he wants, he is free to use the city's energy nodes to cast spells, and he can also freely enter and exit many forbidden places where he can only pass guΓ² with the status of a councilor.
However, he still couldn't figure out why he suddenly became a Kenrito.
He asked his own questions.
** Shi Antonidas laughed: "Actually, as early as when we fought side by side in the Psychic Academy, didn't I say that I would introduce you to join the alliance?" What happened later made me more convinced. I'm back here to talk to you, and it just so happens that the vacant seat in the Council of Six has been undecided. At that time, we only had this intention to temporarily include you in the scope of investigation. But to tell you the truth, your own strength at that time was not enough to rank among the ranks of the ** division. But this time you gave us a surprise, in such a short time, you actually entered this realm! I can't tell you that you have the same aura as Ms. Kyle! β
"This realm" should refer to the surging power that Jiang Weihan felt after the transformation ceremony, right?
I remember Kyle telling him that he now has the power that a hero should have.
It seems that being a hero is the minimum standard for the Kenrito Council to recruit new members?
After talking about business, Antonidas sent an invitation to Jiang Weihan: "Let's go, I'll take you to the mysterious treasure room." The thing you want is inside. β
Just as he was about to leave, a crow landed lightly on the carpet in the center of the conference room.
Jiang Weihan was thinking, "It can't be such a coincidence", and then the crow magically transformed into a wizard in a purple cloak in a puff of smoke.
Antonidas, who was also shocked, looked at the mysterious wizard, and he immediately remembered that the last time he was in the court of Lordaeron to introduce Valoran to the Alliance, the wizard appeared to Terenus and persuaded the king to move the people to Kalimdor.
Later, Jiang Weihan pointed out the identity of this person - Astral Mage Medivan!
Medivin stood in front of the ** masters and spoke: "Rulers of Kenrito, I have come here to warn you of an extremely urgent warning--humanity is in danger, the tide of darkness is coming again, and the whole world is on the brink of war!" β
His voice was loud and powerful, with an unhesitating affirmation.
"I know who you are, you've been to Lordaeron and said the same thing in front of King Terenus." Antonidas smiled, he had already guessed what Medivan meant, but he still asked, "Prophet, what do you mean by danger?" β
Medivan nodded slightly, obviously the mages here were much easier to communicate with than the old stubborn Tyrenus. He was almost kicked out of the throne room. The seemingly wise king was too old and too old to listen to good advice.
Sure enough, the mages are the wiser ones. At the very least, they showed a willingness to listen.
He spoke heavily, the prophecy he saw: "The fire of hell will fall from heaven, and the dead will be dominated by black magic and will rise up against the living." All of Azeroth will be ruined in flames. The only way out is to take a boat to ancient Kalimdor, where there will be a place for the people to live. β
"Sounds scary." Shi nodded, "And we did discover the evil sect you prophesied to resurrect the dead into ghouls." But we don't intend to give up on the land that nurtured us. Instead, we're going to destroy the root cause of the real catastrophe before it strikes -- you know, right? It's the Lich King Neozu in the Ice Crown of Northrend! β
Medivin looked at the ** master in surprise: "You already know?" β
"I know more than you expected, Medivan!" Antonidas revealed his identity directly.
Medivan was silent, and after a moment he said bitterly, "I know what kind of disaster I have brought to this world recently. I am also glad to see that you are facing up to the threat of natural disasters. But the future will always lead us down the same path. I'm trying to avoid a greater catastrophe for humanity, so why are you trying to do anything useless? Trust me, that won't make much difference. What should come, will always come! β
Jiang Weihan listened to the "fatalistic" argument in this discourse, and then thought of his efforts during this time, a lot of history has been actually changed, so how can what Medivan affirms inevitably happen?
So he retorted, "Since you say so, Lord Medivan, then you should know that what you are doing now is in vain, isn't it. Is the real purpose of what you are doing is to convince someone you really need guidance that your previous prophecies have come true, and that she needs to follow your guidance in order to have a real way out? β
Medivan cast his gaze over and looked at him scrutinically, "You said 'she', it seems that you know that too?" β
In the lingua franca of mankind, "he" and "she" are, of course, two pronunciations.
"Yes, I know that too." Jiang Weihan admitted frankly.
"Then why do you-"
"Do you still want to choose direct confrontation?" Jiang Weihan asked himself, "Because I have truly realized that the future is not immutable. And as far as I know, cause and effect are not predestined for the outcome and cannot be fought. The future changes from moment to moment, and each of the countless thoughts that arise from us will lead to different causes and effects. Maybe sometime in the timeline, I didn't come to Azeroth. There will not be a force representing Valoran in the future; And in another timeline, perhaps King Terenus heeded your advice and led his people westward, preserving more of the fire of life and establishing a new human state there; There may also be a certain timeline where humanity is completely destroyed, and the world is really shrouded in darkness. β
"So I think that when a qiΔ hasn't happened yet, a qiΔ is possible. We need to strive for better results, not go for it. Jiang Weihan looked at Medivan, and the other party was also staring at him closely, "The prophecy has blinded you, prophet!" β
Medivan looked incredulous: "I can't see your future, it's impossible!" β
"But am I not right in front of you?" Jiang Weihan smiled, "It just so happens that I have a very important thing to ask you!" β
Dalaran's secret treasure room houses a variety of precious items that have been acquired by mages over thousands of years. Some were used by the previous mages, and some were obtained through guΓ² other means that could not be used.
It's fair to say that if a certain force has a lot of top-notch combat power but lacks divine weapons, this mysterious treasure room can definitely arm them.
When Turayan crossed the Dark Gate on his expedition to Draenor, the orc chieftain Neozu sent the Death Knight Talon Bloodfiend to infiltrate Dalaran's mysterious treasure vault and steal it - in fact, the artifact Eye of Dalaran. At that time, the mages were still glad that if the Death Knight swept away the treasure house inside, the orcs would definitely be able to organize a powerful force to destroy the entire human world.
However, the fact that the treasure chamber had been lightly infiltrated also caused them to relocate it, making it more secretive and difficult to destroy.
And recently, due to Jiang Weihan's reminder, this city of mages has begun to rearrange the key defensive arrays - because the traitor Kel'thugad, as a member of Kenrito, is very aware of the key points in Dalaran. If one day he would come with an army of the dead, he would take advantage of the weakness of his defenses to easily break through the magical barrier.
On the way to the mysterious treasure room, Medivan showed a special interest in Jiang Weihan, and he naturally asked Jiang Weihan how he foresaw those threats in the future.
Jiang Weihan had no choice but to move out of Blizzard's father again and let Britchard Prophet appear.
After listening to this, Medivan pondered: "This prophet can see through the river of timeβis that also the point he told you?" The future is not constant. β
"Almost." Jiang Weihan said in his heart, after making up this Richard prophet, he must push everything he thinks on him. After all, his own origins are too difficult to explain.
It is not difficult for Jiang Weihan to come to this point of view, first of all, since he came to this world, he has actually changed many things. And then you can see this from your previous knowledge of World of Warcraft - the most exaggerated is a scene that occurs during the trial of Garrosh in "The Battle of Orgrimmar": Kenoz summons a large group of helpers from other timelines, including the murderous Gianna, the mad Karegoth, Thrall, who did not escape and helped Blackmore overthrow the Alliance, and the cowardly puppet king Anduin, etc., to delay time to save Garrosh.
This is where a wonderful phenomenon occurs, and that is the bifurcation of the timeline.
In the timeline that Jiang Weihan is familiar with, after Garrosh destroyed Theramore with the Rainbow of Focus, Gianna, the queen of Theramore, was ready to summon the elemental tide to flood Orgrimmar to return the color. But it was stopped. Then the murderous Gianna is naturally the Gianna who has not been stopped in another timeline.
The same goes for Saar, Karegos, and so on.
Jiang Weihan has always felt that his arrival is equivalent to causing Azeroth to produce a fork in the moment of his arrival: the one without him continues to follow the original trajectory, and the one with him goes in another unknown direction.
However, such speculations can only be proven when the next summoning of Kiran's intentions can be proven
