Chapter 218: Astral Consortium
"Welcome to the Fortress of Glory. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info "Edward saw that Veren and a large number of Draenei soldiers had brought, and personally went out of the city to greet him. He had planned to launch an attack on the Dark Temple once the situation in the Fortress of Glory and the Hellfire Peninsula stabilized, completely removing the tumor of Illidan, but now it seems that the situation has changed.
Viren has lived in Shattrath for a long time, and he doesn't come here with a large army for no reason.
"Edward, I didn't expect you to achieve such an accomplishment in just a few days. Viren and Edward embraced, their eyes shining with relief, "However, now is not the time for us to catch up, I have been informed that Kael'thas is going to use our Storm Fortress to do something crazy, we must stop him, I need your help now." ”
"What happened?" said Edward, solemnly, "my scouts have discovered the enemy of Kil'Gardan's Throne, from where a large number of demons have flown to the Void Storm, and now the crater is an empty barracks. ”
"Sure enough. Viren sighed, "If my prophecy is correct, Kael'thas has taken refuge in the Burning Legion. ”
"Our Void Storm agent risked his life to send back the news that he had found the Demon King Kazak in Void Storm. And the location where he appeared was on our mothership Storm Fortress. ”
"What's even more terrifying is that in the Sunwell Heights of Quel'Salas, there are also traces of demons. "They are not many now, but we can't find the location of their portals, and they must have a plan to appear there, and they may have something to do with Kael'thas." ”
The countess's mouth no longer addressed Kael'thas by his royal highness, but by his first name.
Edward looked at Liadrin.
Seriously, when Liadrin's Blood Knight first appeared a few years ago, it also had a conflict of faith with the Paladin of the Demon Hunter and the Paladin of the Silver Hand. However, as time went on, and Cullen's deliberate friendship with Silvermoon City, the relationship between the three parties gradually calmed down, and each of them believed in their own beliefs, while growing rapidly in the northern regions.
Among the three major paladins, the Demon Hunter Paladins have been steadily growing in strength due to their ability to generate holy light on their own, and even the invasion of natural disasters has not been able to stop them. On the contrary, the development of the Silver Hand and the Blood Knight has been hit hard.
The Order of the Silver Hand split due to the death of Uther and the betrayal of Arthas. The paladins who still believe in the Light are led by Fordin and Mograine, and are still known as the Silver Hand. The other extreme paladins split into the mad Scarlet Crusaders.
And the appearance of the Blood Knight is the latest of the three paladins.
Storm Fortress was originally an interdimensional ship used by Naru to travel through the Great Universe, but when Naru came to the Outlands and entered Shattrath City to participate in the battle against the demons under Illidan's command, Muru was left alone as a remnant member of Storm Keep.
At this time, Kael'thas Sunstrider, who was under Illidan, led his men in a raid on the Storm Fortress, capturing Muru and sending it as a gift to Silvermoon, the main city of the Blood Elves.
During the Scourge invasion, many priests lost the ability to sense the Light, believing that the Light had abandoned them, and turned their backs on the Way of the Light in an attempt to enslave the Light.
Muru is imprisoned in the basement of Silvermoon City, and every Blood Knight needs to obtain pure Light power from it in order to enslave the Light.
The Blood Knights did not initially believe in the Light itself, they saw the power of the Light as a mere use of energy, believing that they could control the Light stolen from Muru's body.
"I felt the true light in Shattrath, she was so warm and holy. "As the first Blood Knight and the leader of the Blood Knights, I am ashamed of our previous enslavement of the Light. Compared to Lord Muru's great and selfless deeds, we can only be regarded as despicable thieves, shameless robbers. ”
"Muru had foreseen his fate a long time ago. "It was his own choice to be willing to put his life into the line to create an army to resist evil in Azeroth." The Blood Knight can get lost, and I think that's what Muru wants to see the most. ”
"Praise be to the Light, Lady Liadrin, and your Blood Knights' repentance will be supported by our Demon Hunter Knights. Edward agreed.
"Thank you, Mr. Edward, for your support. Liadline thanked her heartily. The distance between them and the fortress of Rivendell was not far away, and although the Blood Knights and the Demon Hunter Knights had not had any substantive conflicts in the past, neither side was used to seeing each other. Now, if the Blood Knight regains the Light, he can only make great progress if he is accepted by the Demon Hunter Paladin, otherwise it will definitely gradually decline in comparison with the people.
"Now, does Prophet Viren want to attack Stormkeep?" asked Edward.
"Yes, Storm Fortress was originally our Draenei and Naru's ship, and we must take him back!" Viren said, "and the area of the Void Storm is a place where the Twisted Void borders the Outlands, and it is filled with raging Void energy. Kael'thas has set up numerous mana furnaces in the Voidstorm region, ostensibly to relieve their people's addiction, but in fact, these condensed mana can be used in other places. ”
"You saw ...... in the prophecy," Edward suddenly had a bad premonition.
"Yes, I saw the fraudster Kilgardan, the old friend of mine. Viren said with a gloomy face, "What's even more terrifying is that I also saw Muru exuding a lot of shadow energy. ”
"If Kael'thas defects to the Burning Legion, then this matter will be tricky. Edward frowned, "We don't have a force in the Void Storm, and that shattered continent doesn't have a major road to connect to the Hellfire Peninsula or Blade's Edge Mountain. ”
"That's why I came to you for help. "As far as I know, Lady Hayley is proficient in the technology of portals......"
"You mean to use the portal to teleport our army over?" Edward continued, "I'm afraid this is difficult, we need to discuss it with Hayley, and there is one who might be able to help us as well." ”
Edward had all the generals gathered in the hall to discuss the matter, including Danas of the Alliance and Sarufar the Younger.
"It's hard. After listening to Viren's proposal, Hayley was embarrassed and said, "The establishment of a large portal requires an extremely large energy core, unless the prophet Viren asks Naruadar to come here to preside over the maintenance of the portal, we will be able to teleport our army to the Void Storm." Otherwise, it would be difficult for the average energy core to do this. ”
Hayley actually has another choice in her mind, and that is Edward's three energy fragments. But she didn't say it, it was Edward's stuff, and she wouldn't be so selfless as to let Edward contribute.
"Adar is the most solid foundation of our Draenei, and for countless years, we Draenei have suffered terrible disasters, and it is because of Adar's existence that we have persevered until now. Mr. Viren was embarrassed, but finally gritted his teeth and said, "But in order to resist the Burning Legion, I will communicate with Adar." ”
"You are such a great leader. Edward exclaimed, he didn't really understand the technology of portals, so he didn't know that his three energy shards could replace Adar in this task, "But we can't let you draenei suffer this kind of damage again, we may have other options." ”
Hayley was conflicted, but in the end she didn't say it, and she also warned Khadgar with her eyes not to reveal it.
Khadgar was a little creepy when she was stared at by Hayley, and finally didn't interject.
"Ladies and gentlemen, there may be an organization that can help us achieve this, and we only need to give some treasures and curiosities. Millhouse interjected suddenly.
Everyone looked in unison at the unremarkable dwarf standing on the chair.
"That's the Astral Consortium!" Milhouse said, "Although those ethereal spirits are called vampires and captives of interests, they are a reliable ally!
"Astral Consortium...... Viren does not have a good impression of the Ethereal Spirits of the Astral Consortium, and it is this group of Ethereals who once tried to get their hands on the habitat of the ancestral souls of their Draenei - Oakington.
"If it's the Astral Consortium, maybe we'll be able to find their representatives right now. "Just the other day, a team of ethereals came to our Fortress of Glory, and their leader claimed to be Shadrak, an assistant to Prince Halamad of the Node, who wanted to establish a shop in our Fortress of Glory, and said that he could help the druids purify the land and build their ecological domes there......"
"It's the bandaged scoundrel!" Little Sarufar cried out angrily at the name, "I know him, this abominable bandage man has poached a lot of prey in our native Nagrand savannah!
"Astral Consortium?" Edward hadn't seen the Ethereal, but he did.
Shadrak was called into the hall, a soul-like creature, and if it weren't for the "bandage" wrapped around them, one could only faintly see a humanoid energy body.
"It's a great honor to be received by all of you. The ethereal voice was stiff, much like the electronic voice Edward had heard in Harry's world, "I've already heard from this Lord Danas about the specific business, and we in the Astral Consortium are willing to take on this job." But before we get to work, I wonder what we're going to get?"
The crowd fell into deep thought.
Edward thought for a moment, and suddenly something came to mind.
"Do you want to do this?" Edward pulled out a Native Plane crystal coin and tossed it to Shadrek...... (To be continued.) )
