Chapter Seventy-Two: The Council and the Guardian and the Tragedy

"Since the Tyrisfa Council's duty is to prevent the invasion of demons, why didn't you show up when I encountered and fought demons before?"

"You don't know. Verin sighed deeply at the current state of the Council, "The previous Guardian, Egwene, betrayed the Council and refused to pass on the power of the Guardian to the next Guardian. With her great power, the council had no way to find her trace. ”

"Without the Guardians, our ability to fight demons is greatly reduced. Shaking his head slowly, Verin, who gave Lanloth's first impression was very unorthodox, had a deep and complex light flashing in his eyes.

Both fell silent, and Lanros's thoughts drifted away.

In fact, he knew more about the current state of the Council of Tirisfa than Verin.

The Guardians of Tirisfa are not missing, and they are no longer Egwene. If I am not mistaken, the current guardian should be Medivan, who fell into a coma.

Hundreds of years ago, Egwene defeated the powerful demon leader who invaded Azeroth, the Dark Titan Sargeras!

Although it is only an incarnation, it is completely conceivable how powerful the Guardian can be!

However, it was a conspiracy, and a wisp of Sargeras's soul took advantage of Egwen's slack due to the victory and invaded her weakened body, and the eternal evil power of the Dark Titan gradually affected her soul.

Egwen's slowly changing mind makes her question the council, and her biggest suspicion is that she discovers that some of the top leaders of this secret organization, whose ultimate goal is to protect Azeroth, have begun to meddle in the politics of the human kingdom.

Add to that the new members of the council who are stubborn and self-serving are abusive to her, trying to force her to step down as Guardian.

Skepticism eventually turned to distrust and hostility.

She fears that when she leaves office, the 'degenerate' parliament will elect a weak and indecisive guardian to act as a puppet to help them achieve their political goals.

So, Egwene chose to leave, leaving with the power of the Guardians.

The Council of Tirisfa was furious, and the councillors of great strength and courage joined the pursuit of the 'traitor' Egwene.

Among them is a very good arcanist, Neras Elam, who is unable to escape from the pursuit of the Guardian with the help of a magical artifact created by the Council to weaken the power of the Guardians.

As the saying goes, the people who know you best are often your enemies.

During the long chase, Egwene found that Elan, like himself, seemed to be intolerant of the Parliament's meddling in the politics of the Human Empire.

At the same time, Elam discovers that the Guardian is not as rebellious and disloyal as the council claims. When he saw Egwene's motives, he gradually felt pity for the latter's plight.

After a long time, two souls who understood each other sparked in this way......

After all, the power of the Guardian was created by the Council, and Egwen thought that she would not be able to hide for the rest of her life, so she and Elland conceived an heir, and secretly passed on the power of the Guardian to this child.

They named him Medivan, which in the language of the High Elves means 'Keeper of Secrets'.

As his birth meant, the Council of Tirisfa would not be able to track down Egwen, who had lost his Guardian powers, through existing spells, and would not have imagined that this child would be the new Guardian.

It was a secret, a secret that only Egwene and Elan knew, but there was another secret that even neither of them knew.

The evil power that lurks in the depths of Egwen's soul has been transferred to this child.

Therefore, Medivin is destined to be a tragedy......

Lanlos sighed silently as Verin recalled him, but he quickly came back to his senses and continued to sort out and look through the memories of the recent timeline in his mind.

After that, Egwene disappeared from view, and Elan left the council to become the chief court mage of the Stormwind Kingdom and teach Mediven the arcane ways.

Until he can truly control the power of the Guardian and inherit the authority of the Guardian.

However, an accident happened, on Medivan's fourteenth birthday, the power of the guardian in his body suddenly exploded under the inducement of Sargeras, and the young Medivan could not control such a powerful power by his own will.

Although Elan was determined to help his children, he failed, and this amazing force not only put Medivan into a coma for nearly a decade, but also killed Elan.

Medivan's awakening time was about 21 years before the Dark Gate opened, but unfortunately, due to Quel'Thalas's seclusion and Lanloth's lack of power, he couldn't accurately judge the time, and he couldn't be sure whether Medivan was still unconscious or awake.

However, even if Medivan awoke, he had no intention of informing the Council of Tirisfa of the future Guardian's identity.

Under the influence of the Dark Titan, Egwene's approach was somewhat paranoid, but not entirely unreasonable. If the Council of Tirispha had stayed true to their original intentions and refrained from interfering in the politics of the Human Empire, Egwene would not have been so.

But again, it was some of the members after all, and Egwen's practice of overturning a boatload of people with one shot was extreme.

More extremely, she gave birth to Medivan, so much so that she indirectly contributed to the future orc invasion.

Is Egwene wrong? It was her responsibility to kill the demons, and it was only careless for Sargeras to calculate. In order to avoid the pursuit of the Council, she chose to put the responsibility of Guardian on a child, and it is because of this that Sargeras has the opportunity to corrupt the new Guardian.

Is there anything wrong with the Council of Tirisfar?The Guardians are the 'spearheads' of the Council, the heart and knife of the fight against demons, and if the Blades cannot devote themselves to the task of protecting Azeroth, they will certainly need to change or even replace the Blades.

As the organization grew, the negligence in management and the unscrupulous atmosphere at the top made most of the new members arrogant and self-serving. The more people there are, the stronger the desires.

Meddling in the politics of the human kingdom is in itself a betrayal, a betrayal of parliamentary principles.

As for Medivan, he is still a tragedy, a poor man who has been played by fate......

"So, have you thought about it?" Lanloth's thoughts were interrupted by a lazy voice in his ear, and he saw Verin lying on a branch at some point, basking in the sun very comfortably, as if the depression just now was just an illusion, "Do you want to join?"

"What?!" Although he had some guesses when the other party introduced the basic situation of the council to him, but when he really got Verin's invitation, Lan Luo still couldn't help but be surprised, "This, is it appropriate?"

"As I said, I've been watching you all along, and judging by this time, I'm sure you're an enemy of the demons. Without turning his head, Verin's voice was as calm as an ancient well, as if there was a magic force that made Lanlos's violent heartbeat gradually ease, "I have always believed in one thing, the enemy of my enemy is my friend. ”

"However, I'm just a small spellcaster who has just stepped into the middle rank......"

Hearing Lanloth's uncertain question, Verin seemed to have expected it, and replied with a serious expression: "You have also seen that without the Guardian, the Council's ability to resist demons is greatly reduced, and we need more strength, even if it is your strength. ”

After a moment of silence, Lanlos glanced at the conspicuous black land not far away.

As I said, there is something wrong with the Council of Tirisfa, but that doesn't mean it's completely necrotic. For example, Verin, although this elven uncle seems unreliable, but at least when it comes to dealing with demons, he can let go of all prejudices.

And Lanlos could feel that Quel'Thalas's recent frequent appearance of demons had already made Verin anxious.

"What's the benefit if I join?" After a short silence, Lanlos saw that the time was almost right, and threw out his most important concerns.

The Council of Tiriss is a powerful organization of spellcasters, not only for spells, but also for demons and evil powers, and there is no reason for Lanlos to refuse to join, excluding those internal and external relationships that are cut and unorganized.

After all, as a High Elf, he has enough conditions and reasons to stay away from those political disputes.

Of course, as a good young man from another world, I have countless experiences in novels, film and television dramas about inspirational, court and psychology, plus I have been in the workplace for so many years.

Lanlos knows better than most people in this world how to maximize benefits!

"Benefits?" The feet that were constantly shaking in the air suddenly stopped, and Verin turned his head slightly to look at the young man, revealing a surprised expression, and then quickly laughed, "Ha! Isn't it good to join such a powerful organization?"

With an expression that didn't want to be fooled, a flash of disdain flashed in Lanlos's eyes: "Please, you know that I have dealt with demons, and more than once. ”

"I understand how powerful the enemies of the council are, and there is no real benefit, and your act of pulling me into the gang makes me feel very insecure!"

"Haha! Interesting......" Turning over and jumping off the bushes, Verin stared straight into Lanloth's eyes, who couldn't help but laugh again at the innocence and rightfulness in the latter's eyes, "You're the only mid-level spellcaster in the millennium to bargain with me. ”

Inexplicably, Lanlos felt a pressure coming, but he didn't waver in his thoughts: "This is not a bargain, the pay and the return are relative...... Trust me, if your efforts are sincere enough, my reward will definitely surprise you. ”

"Huh, you're a little mid-level spellcaster, where did you get your confidence......

Scold!

The fire of chaos that rose again was reflected in Verin's pupils, and he didn't say anything more halfway through.

"Want to hear the latest news about demons?"
