After sending Varian and Queen Talia to Lordaeron, Edward's mission was complete. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 InfoAfter a night's rest in Lordaeron, Edward was about to leave with Hayley and Khadgar in a teleportation array when they were visited by a big man they didn't expect.

It was an old man dressed in a priest's robe, and his first impression of Edward was kind, kind, and kind, and almost every word of praise could be used on the old man, who was always surrounded by a divine light that made him look like a divine source.

"I'm sorry to disturb you, but I heard that you're leaving, and I have to take the liberty of visiting. The old man saluted gently, "First of all, let me introduce myself, my name is Alonsos Fao. ”

"Your Excellency the Archbishop!" Hayley looked at the old man steadily, then half-knelt down, and then explained to Edward and Khadgar, "This is His Excellency Alonthos Fao, the Archbishop of Lordaeron, the spiritual leader of the priests!"

Edward and Khadgar also knelt down, but were immediately held up by a soft light.

"I can't afford such a great gift in front of you. A smile appeared on Fao's wrinkled face, "I took the liberty of visiting this time to learn about the Demon Hunter Paladin you founded by Edward. ”

"You founded the Paladin profession in Azeroth, the forerunner of all paladins, and you and I are on the same footing. ”

"You've won the prize, Archbishop Fao. "Edward had heard of the old man, and he knew how exalted Fa'o was in Lordaeron and the world of Azeroth. Being praised by Fao like this, Edward was a little flattered.

"No, I haven't won an award. Fao looked at the young man with a sense of justice, and his heart was full of affirmation, "The appearance of the paladin has given our priest the ability to fight in close combat. At the same time, we priests will no longer be logistics, we will be able to go to the battlefield and add support to all the warriors who are fighting on the front lines, so that they can be blessed by the Light. ”

"Your contribution is unparalleled, Edward, and I am here to thank you for all living beings. After saying that, Fao bowed slightly, leaving Edward and the three at a loss.

After exchanging greetings, Edward hurriedly helped the archbishop to sit down.

"I know that the Stormwind Kingdom is in turmoil, and the tragedy at the North-County Monastery has left me heartbroken, and you are running out for time, so I'll make a long story short. ”

"What I want to know is, how do you make a priest or an ordinary person with a heart of light become a paladin?"

Faced with Fao's question, Edward thought for a while before saying, "If you want to become a paladin, you must have a strong body and a stronger faith than ordinary priests, and then condense the holy light in your body into a heart of faith through a meditation method......"

"Wait...... Edward, you stop for a moment. Fao frowned, and then he asked, "First of all, I want to ask, where does your light come from?"

"The holy light of our demon hunter paladins mainly comes from their own hearts, secondary from people's beliefs, and a small part is the gift of the source of holy light. Edward didn't say anything about Naru's existence, and in his opinion, Naru's gift of light was only a small part of it, and more of it came from the paladin's own beliefs.

"Oh, from the heart of one's own faith?" Fao's brow furrowed even tighter, "the human heart is fickle, is there a possibility that the source of this holy light will be polluted? ”

"Nothing is impossible, Your Excellency. Edward also frowned, he had realized that his path of light was a bit contradictory to the archbishop, "No matter what kind of light, there is a possibility of being tarnished, and the main thing depends on the owner's own beliefs." ”

"The Light is pure, and she should not be created by the human heart. Fao retorted, "The Light as we know it is a divine being, and he can only be gifted, and then a person who has been baptized can become the owner of the Light." ”

Fao's words have made it clear that the vast majority of the sources of Light came from the giving of the priests before Edward. ”

"Your Excellency, I disagree with your words. "In this war-torn world, the most trustworthy thing is one's own strength, and external forces are sometimes very powerful, but they are also unreliable forces. If one day, we lose the source of Light......"

"The Source of Light cannot be lost!" Fao interrupted Edward with a little anger, "As long as there are virtues in the world, the Source of Light will not be lost. ”

Edward was not angry that his words were interrupted, but looked at Fao, who was slightly angry, with a calm face. He knew that his ideas were like heretics to the old man, who had believed in the Light all his life.

The latter also realized his gaffe, took a few deep breaths and said, "I'm sorry, your theory is really a bit difficult for me to accept. ”

"It doesn't matter, after all, the Paladin profession is still in its infancy. Edward smiled, "Whatever the Light, we need to have the humility, honesty, mercy, valor, justice, sacrifice, glory, and soul of a knight, a force of absolute justice. ”

"You're right, young pioneer. Fao laughed as well, and the atmosphere suddenly became very harmonious again, "I originally came here to teach you how to become a paladin, but now it seems that I must also become a pioneer." ”

"I'm going to prove that my philosophy is more appropriate for the world. ”

"Then we'll see. Edward laughed.

"Hopefully I will see the day when the land of the Holy Light Puza will be seen. Fao's body was very weak, and he was almost at the point of his life, "I will soon form the Knights of the Silver Hand, and I hope you will be there when Edward comes." ”

"I think I will. Edward looked at the old man who had fought for the cause of the Holy Light all his life, and his heart was in awe.

After seeing off Fao, Edward prepared to use the teleportation array to return to Stormwind, where Hayley and Khadgar would return with him, while Berval would stay here and set off with Lordaeron's support to meet the refugees in Stormwind.

As for Kael'thas, the High Elf prince was about to teleport back to Dalaran, but his colleague Sahira and ten mages escorted him but were unexpectedly left behind in Lordaeron, nominally to assist Bovar and help Dalaran.

"Listening to your conversation with Fao, I seem to feel that His Excellency the Archbishop's philosophy is more suitable for the Way of Light. Watching as Edward prepared to teleport the spell, Khadgar spoke his mind.

"Whether it is suitable or not depends on the future development. Edward smiled, "Khadgar, the world is full of power that can be used, but I always believe that my own power is the real power. ”

"Just like us mages?" Khadgar said, "The mage's power comes from itself, and the arcane power of the world is too secret and obscure, and we must rely mainly on our own mana, plus the arcane power that guides the outside world, in order to unleash powerful spells." ”

"Yes, that's what I meant. Edward raised his left hand, and blue arcane power circled around him—a teleportation array rapidly formed.

"No matter how many times I watch it, I find it incredible. Khadgar exclaimed, "You are a warrior and a paladin, but you have such powerful mana, are you still human?"

"The instructors, of course, are human. Hayley glared at Khadgar and put her arm around Edward's shoulder.

"Well, you know, I didn't mean that. Khadgar scratched his head and put his arm around Edward's shoulder.

When the three Edwards regained their sight, they were stunned by what they saw.

The once prosperous Stormwind City collapsed in the flames, the tall and majestic buildings were constantly smashed by huge stones, the green orcs everywhere were burning and looting, and some old people and children who had not yet evacuated were crying and trembling under the roar of the orcs.

Edward had no idea that just one day later, the orc army would be under Stormwind!

"Khadgar, you and Hayley go to the port!" Edward shook off Starshine and slashed an orc in half with a single sword, and said angrily.

Khadgar, a mage, knew that he could only get in the way of Edward here, and resolutely ran to the harbor.

Hayley picked up her hammer and shield, and instead of following Edward's advice, she stayed behind to fight alongside Edward.

Edward sighed and did not rebuke the stubborn girl.

Scanning the chaotic battlefield, Edward was reassured.

Lothar's command was effective, and not many of the inhabitants of Stormwind remained here, and they were all protected by blue-armoured Stormwind soldiers.

After a battle with Hayley, Edward and Hayley saw that Cullen was leading a team of draenei paladins in burgundy elven armor, protecting a dozen civilians who were evacuating.

Behind them, they were followed by a band of orcs, the leader of which Edward knew, was Varok Sarufar.

Edward's figure intervened between the two teams, blocking a slash from Sarufar, and then yelled, "Karen, take the refugees to the port, I'll break the back." ”

Cullen and the refugees cheered and immediately retreated.

"Edward the Slayer!" Sarufar roared, ordering all the orcs to surround Edward and Hayley, "You can't run!

"Don't forget, Sarufar, this is a battlefield, not Makgora. Edward laughed, a blue flash gathering in his left hand.
