Chapter 008: A Good Show
"Are you alright, Gianna?" It wasn't until Lanros disappeared into the plaza that Kael'thas slowly removed his magic shield and looked at the human girl behind him with a concerned expression.
"I'm fine. Faced with the concern of this elven prince who was as dazzling as the sun, Gianna was obviously a little uncomfortable, bowed respectfully to the other party with a slight shyness, and silently retreated to the level of an ordinary relationship.
I don't know when the famous elven prince always approached her with this kind of concern that she couldn't resist. It's not that she's an elf, but that Gianna doesn't think she's in need of constant protection like most other aristocratic ladies.
Kael'thas behaved as a gentleman, in a way, underestimating himself.
However, the young girl did not seem to notice anything else. But not far away, Crassus, whose eyes were about to roll out of the sky, obviously understood Kael'thas in an instant.
Sure enough, the long-lived elves have no concept of age at all......
"Ahem!" Seeing that the elven prince wanted to continue, the red dragon mage had to find a way to quickly interject and get down to business, "Kael'thas, we still have something to do." ”
"Here it is. Nodding, the elven prince looked at the girl reluctantly with his scorching golden eyes, "I'm sorry that my people have frightened you, if there is anything that can compensate you, you can come to my mage tower to find me at any time." ”
"Well, I will, if I need to. With a visibly embarrassed smile, Gianna nodded hurriedly, trying to end the conversation as quickly as possible.
Perhaps due to his strong self-confidence, Kael'thas was not aware of Gianna's almost overflowing resistance and vigilance, and of course, it was also possible that he was aware of it but didn't care, or didn't believe that anyone would resist his approach.
Luckily, under the pressure of Crassus's eyes, Kael'thas did not continue to try to close the distance between the two. Seeing the two archmages walking towards the crowd, Gianna breathed a sigh of relief and hurriedly left the noisy square.
——————————————————————
A hurricane suddenly blew in the huge office, and with a large number of files and papers blown all over the floor, two mages in robes appeared in the center of the room at the same time.
"Vomit~!" Before he could stand firmly, Lanlos suddenly covered his mouth and retched, and his swaying body was about to fall backwards, when a chair suddenly slid from the corner and caught his ass steadily.
Allowing the chair to push itself to the table, the elven mage who sat on it did not forget to look at Antonidas with stubborn eyes, even though his face was pale.
"It's hard to overdraw yourself like this. As the scattered scrolls of paper rose up in the wind and returned to their original positions, the archmage sat down slowly on the opposite side, and couldn't help but shake his head silently when he saw that the elves had only shown embarrassment until now.
Forcibly strengthening a three-ring spell to the level of a legendary spell is certainly amazing, but the mental power and magic power required to consume it are also prohibitive.
It is a pity that such a strong will does not need to be on the right path, and only thinks of some crooked ways......
Lanlos pulled up a very ugly smile, and his low and hoarse voice seemed to have gone through vicissitudes: "If you want to be noble in front of people, you will definitely suffer in the future." I picked up this life, I want money without money, I want identity without identity. It's never been easy until now. ”
Antonidas is the lord of Dalaran and a far-sighted legendary spellcaster, so he naturally has a detailed understanding of Lanloth's life and experience. Indeed, if you write an autobiography of what this guy did, I'm afraid the world will only think that this is someone's cranky delusion.
Although it is not an achievement, Lanlos's various experiences of escaping death and turning the tide have completely dominated the headlines in recent years. Even some women and children washing clothes by the river may be discussing him in their spare time.
And if you want to achieve such a level, the hard work and sweat must be proportional.
Looking at the elf's long and scattered gray hair, Antonidas's expression was faintly moved, and he inexplicably gave birth to a feeling of pity.
When people are old, they are easy to sigh......
Shaking his head slightly, throwing away the distractions in his heart, the archmage's face became stern again: "Tell me, what is your purpose. ”
Seeing that the city lord still had an unsmiling expression, Lanlos pursed his lips and silently let go of Adruin, who was shining with a glimmer in his hand, and Elunis on his chest seemed to dim a little.
Although he only has 11 charms, with the full blessing of several world-shattering artifacts, Lanloth's charm is as high as a full 34.
But it still can't shake Antonidas's emotions and judgment, the legendary mage, it's really extraordinary.
Since they are all smart people, there is no need to make so many twists and turns. Lanloth stretched and sat up straight, then unceremoniously took the teacup that had slid across the table and drank it down.
The warm heat begins in the throat and soaks the stomach and finally slowly travels to the brain. The stinging pain in the brain caused by the magic overdraft was actually relieved in an instant.
"What kind of tea is this? ”
In the face of Lanlos's surprise, Antonidas showed patience: "When I have nothing to do, I like to tinker with some unpopular things, old man." ”
As he spoke, the archmage raised his finger, and the empty cup in Lanlos's hand turned out to be his own boiling tea.
Creation, from the point of view of quality alone, has thrown itself more than a dozen streets.
The elven mage drank it again, and then carefully placed the teacup on the table, his face showing obvious flattery.
"Hehe, the archmage deserves to be an archmage, and even a simple creation technique can be proficient to this extent, which is very powerful. ”
"If you want to learn, I can teach you. Antonidas looked at the mage with those wise eyes that seemed to know everything, "After you've explained everything." ”
Looking at the awe-inspiring archmage in front of him, the smile on Lan Luos's face gradually converged, and his more serious gaze became extremely sharp: "This question, why don't you ask yourself first?"
As if as a reminder, Lanlos silently gathered magic around him. The roaring arcane energy was like the sky before a rainstorm, extremely oppressive, but also extremely dangerous.
Back then, in the face of Kenrito's oppression and pressure step by step, in order to ensure survival, the elven mage who was alone almost disposed of everything he could sell at a low price. At that time, Kenrito made enough money for him, but due to the difference in strength between the two sides, Lanlos did not have much complaint about it.
After all, as a dangerous person with demonic energy, Dalaran was willing to take him in, which could be regarded as his best of righteousness.
But now it's not what it used to be, Lanlos is no longer the person he used to be, and the legendary realm has never brought him more than just power.
As a strong person, you should have the dignity and tonality of a strong person. Kenrito obviously didn't realize this, not only did he imprison himself for a year at the juncture of defeating the tribe, but he even wanted to tie himself up to Dalaran to work for them?
Well, although because of the Draenor incident, I have had a messy year myself...... But that's not a reason for Kenrito to detain himself. If you have the popularity and status of the son of Lothar in this year, which one can escape the palm of your hand?
Yes, it's all Kenrito...... So don't blame me for the lion's big mouth.
"Is that so?" Looking at the sarcastic smile on the other man's lips, Antonidas quickly read his thoughts, and after a brief silence, there was obvious disappointment in his eyes, "Twenty years from an apprentice to stepping into the door of a legend, as a High Elf, you are far faster than anyone else. Therefore, you will not be blamed for having such an egotistical mentality. ”
"I'm not your student, Archmage, so I don't have to lecture me. Lanlos smiled and shook his head, "We are all understanding people, why can't we just be more direct?"
Hearing this, Antonidas' dark blue eyes narrowed slightly.
Wisdom, if viewed from the opposite side, can also be said to be cunning. Although Antonidas has always been so kind and benevolent in the impression of the people of Dalaran and even the entire Eastern Kingdom, there are two sides to everything. After going through so much, Lanloth became more and more vigilant about this archmage.
For so many years, the other six nations of the human race have been in constant disputes and disputes, but Kararan was able to maintain absolute neutrality during such a complex and turbulent period, and even became a mediator between kingdoms for a time.
To say that there is nothing is absolutely impossible.
Even, if it goes well...... Don't look at the small territory of Dalaran, but once its influence is expanded to a certain extent, its value and power are difficult to estimate.
The city of the old man in front of him, compared to what his appearance shows, is simply a bottomless abyss.
In this respect, Lanlos is ashamed of himself. Rather than being invisibly dazzled by the Archmage's extraordinary wisdom, it is obviously more advantageous to go straight.
Without waiting for Antonidas to think too deeply, Lanlos flicked his wrist and slammed an old book on the table.
Seeing this, the archmage's eyes clearly flashed with a gleam. But even with the answer in his heart, he still didn't show any expectation or excitement, but looked at the elf with a puzzled expression: "What is this?"
In economics, gambling is a basic and efficient compulsory course. Just like on a chessboard, even the opponent's inadvertent movements and demeanor may become the key to the final reversal of the situation.
Lanlos was absolutely not convinced that Antonidas would not know what the book was. But even he, no matter how attentive and meticulous he was, couldn't dig out even the slightest abnormality from the other party's face.
This acting ...... I'm still young.
Without concealing his admiration, Lan Luo didn't bother to debunk it again, and silently pushed the slightly dilapidated thick ancient book in his hand forward: "The Violet Eye is still stationed in Karazhan until now, and it is called checking for hidden dangers, but in fact, it is searching for this thing, right?"
Following his words, Antonidas's eyes brightened slightly, and this scene inexplicably made Lanlos's judgment of the other party shake. Could it be that he was too malicious and speculated about this venerable old city lord?
No, it's all an illusion......
Shaking his head violently to shake off the distractions in his mind, the elven mage gently opened the patent leather cover: "That's right, this is what you dream of, the Book of Medivan." ”
