Chapter 280: Dalaran's Panic
The arcane hall of Dalaran is bustling with activity, this is the side hall of Violet Castle, which can accommodate nearly 1,000 people or so.
At this time, the Arcane Hall was packed, and when Angel and Adlina arrived after changing their clothes, it was already a mess inside, and the magicians had already abandoned their reserves, and they were all arguing, and they were all arguing, and they were the first to express their opinions.
"Mr. Modra, I think it is imperative that Antonidas's predecessor recall the rights of the Magical Inquisitor and force them to help resist the onslaught of the undead Scourge, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable. ”
"I think it makes sense, the Magic Inquisitor is the backbone of Dalaran, all of them have the strength of the fifth order or above, and now Dalaran is facing unprecedented danger, I think in addition to the Magic Inquisitor, I have to turn to Mr. Nobis for help, after all, he holds the control of the priest's team. ”
"Totally agree!"
"Agreed!!"
In the stands, Modra's sideburns were like snow and she looked a little old, but the determined demeanor revealed in her eyes did not match the feeling she gave people on the outside.
"Calm me down!"
Modra tapped the table with the staff in her hand, and nodded at Angel and Adlina, who had just entered, and motioned for them to find a place where there were fewer people, after all, the seats were already crowded by now, and many people were still standing.
Then Modra said: "What you said is very reasonable, I admit that both Ebith and Nord have put forward opinions that are very in line with the current battle situation, and I completely agree, but these opinions can only be decided after they are presented to the city lord of Antonidas." ”
"Let's talk about the current situation for the next students, I can only make a long story short, after all, time is limited, and those terrifying monsters that we have never seen before have been entrenched in the shadows around us. ”
Modra brought the topic back, and among the more than a thousand magicians present, down to the second and third orders, and up to the fourth and fifth orders, there were nearly eight or nine hundred people who still didn't know what was going on.
Magicians, most of them are withdrawn and introverted geniuses, they are all crazy people who are immersed in magical knowledge, unable to extricate themselves, and indifferent to the dynamics of the outside world.
So Modra felt the need to tell everyone here about this first, she cleared her throat and said, "Lordaeron and Quel'Thalas, I'm sure most of you know each other very well, and even many of you have hometowns there. ”
When Modra mentioned these two once-glorious kingdoms, everyone present had different expressions.
Some of them looked sad and angry, needless to say, they must be human magicians from Lordaeron, and for nearly half a year, the news of the fall of the kingdom of Lordaeron had already spread to every corner of the eastern kingdom.
The others, with their longing eyes and pride, are mostly human mages who worship Quel'Thalas, or High Elf mages from Quel'Thalas. In this place where communications are seriously lagging behind, the time of the destruction of Quel'Thalas was only half a month ago, and many people were completely unaware of the news.
However, Modra obviously didn't want to hide anything anymore, she asked the apprentice to put the map of the Eastern Kingdom on the blackboard where everyone could see clearly, and then pointed to the location of Lordaeron and Quel'Thalas with her staff, and said, "I'm sorry, kids, I have to tell you a cruel fact, the Kenrito Council just got the news, just half a month ago, Queldanus Island was completely destroyed, Silvermoon City and Yongsong Forest were destroyed, and the High Elves had a population of nearly one million, and it was estimated that only about 200,000 escaped. ”
As soon as Modra's words came out, the audience was in an uproar!
"What's going on, who did it?"
"Quel'Thalas, Quel'Thalas?"
"It's the undead, damn it, they destroyed Lordaeron, isn't it enough that they've committed a lot of crimes!!?
These magicians, who had always been able to maintain the image of gentlemen, could not hold back any longer, after all, many of them were also High Elves from Quel'Thalas.
For a while, the crowd was furious, and the Arcane Hall, which had just quieted down, was in an uproar again.
"Be still!"
Modra pressed her hand down, motioning for the people below to be quiet, and then she continued, "Many of you are right, the undead, the infidels who we have suppressed and banished have returned, and they have killed our loved ones and resurrected them as puppet monsters who eat flesh and drink blood. Maybe many of you haven't seen anything like this disgusting, but I think it's been a quick time, Lordaeron and Quel'Thalas have all been poisoned by them, and now, those monsters have targeted us. ”
"That's right, they're coming. ”
Modra used her staff to point to the upper left corner of the hills of the Eastern Kingdom of Hillsbrad, where the magical kingdom of Dalaran is located, "We are gathered here now in order to discuss a plan that can fight against the undead, after all, we Dalaran represent one of the highest combat forces in the Eastern Kingdom, and the Alliance needs us again." ”
Modra spoke loudly, she had already spoken out completely and without any reservations about the current situation in danger.
She knew that now the whole of Dalaran had become food for the eyes of those undead, and everyone in the city was in danger, and if it didn't rely on everyone's strength, then Dalaran... I'm afraid it's going to be another Lordaeron or Quel'Salas.
Not long after Angel came in, she heard something like undead and murder, she was a little confused, and pushed Adlina beside her: "What is the teacher talking about? Is there another war?"
"That's right, this time the enemy, I'm afraid... Even more terrifying than the orcs before it. ”
Adlina nodded, she didn't know how to explain the horrors of necromancy to this little girl, but she was still a little worried about the coming war.
As far as she knew, since this morning, the entire city has been under martial law, and under the supervision of the city guard, no magician is allowed to enter or leave Dalaran in any form or for any reason.
Adlina also noticed that the bright red barrier was slowly rising, completely protecting the entire Dalaran, this is the violet shield, only in the face of a major crisis, Antonidas predecessors will raise this barrier, it can be seen that this time the opponent is very strong, at least not inferior to the previous orcs.
She touched Angel's brown hair beside her, and the two of them looked extremely small in the crowded arcane hall.
The people around were still talking loudly, and Adlina saw Teacher Modra on the stage with a rare solemn expression.
Listening to her students' opinions, Modra gave her opinions, and finally, she gathered them together and drew them into a magic scroll, which she placed in the right pocket of her magic robes.
From the beginning to the end, Angel and Adlina did not say a word, and their level was not too high, so they did not have any right to speak.
Obviously, however, there was no need for the two of them to express their opinions, because the whole meeting was over briefly, and Angel saw Teacher Modra on the stage wave her hand to signal the meeting to end, and then walked through the crowd and came to her and Adlina.
"The war is about to begin. Modra spoke in a serious tone.
She glanced at the people who had left the Arcane Hall one after another and set off to guard the various key places in Dalaran City, and then said to Angel: "The teacher has sworn that during the war, he will fully obey Antonidas's orders, and you must not leave me during this time, otherwise, I will not be able to ensure your safety." ”
Angel had never seen a teacher with such a solemn expression, and she nodded obediently, "I will always stand with the teacher! No matter what enemy you face, I believe that you and Antonidas can defeat it!"
Modra didn't speak for a while, she touched Angel's hair with gentle eyes, hesitated for a moment, and then said, "Go, you two, hurry up and get ready, we will go to Violet Castle early in the morning, there are already people waiting for us." ”
"Oh, good... Okay..."
Angel nodded, pulling Adlina away.
Before leaving, Angel turned around and forgot to glance at Modra, whose eyes were full of sorrow.
If...
Angel thought: it would be nice if he was here...
