Murphy looked down on the city shrouded in darkness beneath his feet, sporadic battles still taking place in the corners of the city's depths, but they didn't matter to the bigger picture.

It was the last struggle of the few survivors, and perhaps one or two lucky ones would escape, but most of them were destined to become part of the Void army.

Lordaeron fell, and in less than a day, this glorious and magnificent royal capital protected by the Holy Light was reduced to a depraved dark realm.

Watch as the corrupted citizens walk the streets like the walking dead.

Watch as the priests and bishops who embrace the shadows use shadow magic to open portals and summon a large number of void creatures to this world.

I saw the shadow energy gushing out of the golden tree, constantly spreading and expanding.

The shocking sight left Murphy silent for a while.

He hovered above the sky, watching the horrific scene with cold eyes.

"Hehe, I can't imagine that you really couldn't hold back and didn't make a move."

A voice suddenly sounded from his side.

Mo Fei didn't have to guess to know that it was Wang Xuan.

He turned his head and saw that Wang Xuan was also suspended in the sky, overlooking the city at his feet.

"I've always kept my promises, and since I said that I wouldn't interfere indiscriminately to change the plot, I will naturally refrain from doing so, so all of this is what you promote? The fall of Naozu, the corruption of the Golden Tree, and the destruction of Lordaeron were all your preset scripts? ”

"That's right, how about it, this plot is very good, historically Lordaeron was destroyed by Arthas, he was the crown prince of Lordaeron, and now it is indirectly destroyed by Godwin, he is the king of Lordaeron.

It was the rulers who destroyed the cities and kingdoms they guarded.

It was also destroyed in one day.

The same is to make Lordaeron's people evil minions.

It's full of fatalism and epicness, and I am thrilled with my genius idea, which is so emotional.

And then, naturally, it will be up to our great King of Light to gather adventurers and redeem his people, and of course, it may also be Prince Arthas who will rewrite history and become the savior of Lordaeron, as well as the other princes and princesses, I think many of them want to be the chosen ones and become the saviors of their kingdoms.

As for who can save the world in the end, it will naturally depend on their own ability, although we as GMs have to control the development of the plot, but we still have to leave room for players to play, 'players create history', this is not just a slogan, but this history is to be set by me. ”

Looking at Wang Xuan's triumphant expression, Mo Fei asked with a slight mockery, "So will it make you feel very satisfied to see Lordaeron's people reduced to the walking dead?" ”

Wang Xuan shook his head, "Of course not, I'm not that psychologically distorted pervert, or have an antisocial personality."

Of course, I don't feel guilty about what happened, and if I blame them, they are unlucky, who makes the plot require their sacrifices. ”

"That's your reason?" Murphy's voice was a little cold.

"Hehe, don't pretend to be a saint, haven't you done nothing? If you really care about their lives, you can stop them, and if you go all out, and the Void Will is also five or five, maybe you can still win.

Even if you intervene in this event in advance, you may be able to directly prevent Naozu from completing the final ritual.

Don't say it's because of our agreement, people like you don't really care about my warnings, I guess you just don't care that much about them. ”

Mo Fei nodded, calmly admitting Wang Xuan's speculation, "That's right, I really don't care that much. ”

Maybe he would have cared in the past, but now, after gaining the power of the gods, he looks at those mortals who are like dust, but his heart is like water.

Not only because they are all NPCs, but also because for the dragon god who has endless life and can foresee the future, mortal life is too fragile, and he has already witnessed countless tragic endings of Lordaeron in his observation of the future, and everything that happens in front of him is just one of them as scheduled.

No matter how tragic the scene is, it will make him feel bored after being spoiled.

"Ha, look, we're all the same kind of people, aren't we, and you're starting to think from the perspective of a chess player, yes, these mortals are just pawns on a chessboard, sometimes in order to accomplish a great goal, some are destined to be sacrificed, as long as their sacrifice is worthwhile, it's not a waste of life.

This is the difference between identity gods and mortals, those who control their own destiny and the fate of others are also in control of the meaning of great power. ”

Mo Fei listened to Wang Xuan's words and asked rhetorically, "So what is your 'great goal'?" Will it really be worth it for you to care about so many victims in front of you? ”

Wang Xuan smiled mysteriously, "Don't test me Mo Fei, we've known each other for a long time, I think you should know that I won't say it now, why don't you join me, then you will know everything, with the relationship between the two of us, are you still afraid that I will cheat you?" ”

Murphy didn't say anything more, both rejecting the invitation and admitting his worries.

Wang Xuan spread his hands helplessly, "Okay, okay, let's not talk about this, the excitement here is over, but there are more excitement to see in other places, I know that something interesting is happening in a place, are you interested in going and taking a look?" ”

Murphy reached out and made a gesture of please.

The figures of the two disappeared into the night sky.

Woohoo!

Two white lights flashed, and two more figures appeared on Dalaran's teleportation array.

Both of them wear mystical cloaks, making it difficult to see their identities.

Walking out of the portal tower and walking through the bustling streets, the glorious city of magic is now even more lively, and it is clear that the news of Lordaeron's destruction has not yet reached - the players know it, but the way the NPCs pass on the information has to go through the process.

The city is bustling with people and has a festive atmosphere.

"What's going on?" Murphy casually pulled a passing mage and asked.

The mage was about to have a seizure, but he immediately stopped the aura emanating from Mo Fei's body and said, "It's the guardian!" A new Guardian is about to be born, and the Kenrito Council is about to make an announcement! ”

Mo Feixin said so,

It is not difficult to understand the excitement and excitement of the citizens of Dalaran.

The past few years can be regarded as thrilling for the Alliance, first the Black Dragon Calamity, then the Orc Invasion, then the natural calamity, once killed under the city of Dalaran, and then the demon army intending to destroy the world...... Even in the magical city of Dalaran, a city protected by the powerful power of the mages, the people are still alive in horror.

In the face of more and more terrifying enemies, more and more threats,

People are generally nostalgic for the relatively peaceful times of the past, when there were trolls, gnolls, fishmen, kobolds, and other evil races that threatened the Alliance, but compared to the terrifying enemies they face today.

And at that time, the guardian Medivan was still the protector of the people, and even if a big boss occasionally appeared, he would be easily eliminated by Medivan.

It's easy to associate Guardians with security, and it's time for a new Guardian to protect everyone.

For this new guardian plan, everyone was in high spirits and talked about it.

Outside Violet Castle, it was crowded with citizens and merchants waiting for news.

Mo Fei and Wang Xuan didn't wait for news outside stupidly, both of them had a powerful power that ordinary people could not perceive, so they quietly entered the Violet Castle.

Use their respective powers to hide their bodies and witness the upcoming plot events.

Murphy looked towards the candidate platform, where the two final candidates for the Guardian, Morgan Lisa and Ronin, were standing on the platform, waiting for the final result.

Next to him were the mages of Dalaran, and Murphy also saw Gianna's figure, already dressed in a formal French robe.

And Khadgar, who had just arrived from the Watch Fortress, seemed a little unsettled, and seemed to be very sorry for missing out on such a big event as the Guardian selection.

The six-member council of Kenrito was on the other side of the platform, muttering and seemingly having a heated discussion.

"Hey Ronin, no matter which of us becomes the Guardian, I hope it won't ruin our friendship, you're a respectable teammate and a strong contender, and Hyjal Mountain fought beautifully."

"Thank you, Princess Morgan, but I don't think you need to be nervous, I think you're probably the guardian."

Morgan Lisa wondered, "Oh, why do you say that? Do you have any inside information. ”

Luo Ning shook his head bitterly: "Do you still need to ask, you are Her Royal Highness the Princess of Lordaeron, and I am just a civilian mage, besides, my reputation in Kenrito has not been very good, how can such a heavy responsibility as a guardian fall on me." ”

Morgan Lisa laughed when she heard this, "You are wrong, if I lose in the end, it may be because of my status as a princess." ”

Luo Ning was stunned, he had a limited understanding of political struggle, but he was also a smart person in the end, and he vaguely guessed the reason.

Can you really be a guardian?

When he thought of the demeanor of the guardian Medivan who cleansed the world in all directions and guarded the world, he felt a burst of excitement in his heart.

However, thinking about the responsibilities that the guardians have to bear, but feeling the huge pressure, Luo Ning has always been lazy, and it is inevitable that he will feel nervous about this kind of arduous burden.

Just when Luo Ning was suffering from gains and losses, the six-member council finally made a decision.

In fact, the decision of the council has already been made, but in order to avoid giving people a sense of guilt, it deliberately makes a sense of contention.

At this moment, I feel that the heat is almost over, and I am ready to announce it.

Morgan Lisa is absolutely not allowed to be a guardian, and the reason is very simple, under the protection of the Golden Tree, the power of the Holy Light Church of Lordaeron has completely dominated, and the Royal Mage faction has no influence at all.

Godwin is the chosen person of the Light, and his dominance is unassailable, which means that Dalaran's influence on Lordaeron is already very shallow.

In this case, even if Morgan Lisa is chosen as the guardian, there is a high probability that it will not be able to change the political landscape of Lordaeron, and Morgan Lisa is likely to be co-opted and used by Godwin.

This is equivalent to Dalaran giving Lordaeron a big gift, and how will Dalaran fight against Lordaeron in the future.

Although Luo Ning's reputation is not very good, he is only a civilian mage, and his family background is shallow, which makes him just easy to control, although he is not the best candidate for the guardian, but at least he can add a powerful weapon to Dalaran, which is better than making a wedding dress for someone.

Antonidas walked up to the high platform and looked at the two people below with a solemn expression.

"It's a difficult decision, Morgan Lisa, Ronin, both of you did very well in the Battle of Mount Hyjal, and of course, the only one is also very heroic, but unfortunately he has already died.

But there can only be one Guardian, and after some deliberation, the Council has finally made a decision, and the new Guardian is-"

"Wait a minute!"

At this moment, a mage suddenly ran over in a hurry and muttered a few words in Antonidas' ear.

Antonidas had a solemn and incredulous expression on his face, and he pulled the other councillors to discuss a few more words, and Murphy could vaguely hear words like 'Lordaeron', 'Dark Golden Tree', and 'Void Shadow'.

Soon the discussion came to fruition.

"The new Guardian is the Morgan Lisa!"

Sure enough, Luo Ning suddenly sighed in his heart.

Morgan Lisa was stunned, this ......

Antonidas walked up to Morgan Lisa.

"Congratulations, Mage Lisa, your magic is so powerful and your faith is so strong that you're the perfect choice for a Guardian."

"Thank you." Morgan Lisa thanked her.

The sound of the system rang in her ears at the same time.

[System Prompt: Complete the Origin Story Quest [Guardian] ......]

"Congratulations, Master Morgan Lisa, please come with me and let us complete the Last Rite of the Guardians, and besides, there's bad news for you to know."

Morgan Lisa was stunned for a moment, but still followed Antonidas through the corridor, towards the depths of Violet Castle.

Mo Fei and Wang Xuan witnessed all this.

Mo Fei was a little dumbfounded, "Is it because of the great changes in Lordaeron that Morgan Lisa became the guardian?" ”

Wang Xuan smiled slightly, "That's right, it was impossible for Morgan Lisa to become a guardian at all, and Dalaran would never give such power to others."

But now with the destruction of Lordaeron, things have changed radically, and the kingdom of Lordaeron is destined to decline after this incident, I am afraid that it will be reduced to a second-rate country within the alliance, and Godwin, as the initiator of all this, has suffered a heavy blow to its reputation, and the Holy Light Church has suffered a great loss, almost losing the power of the ninth layer.

Today's Lordaeron has become a new situation that is falling apart and waiting to be reshuffled.

If all goes well and Morgan Lisa defeats a strong enemy with the help of Dalaran and recovers the royal city of Lordaeron, then she is likely to become the queen of Lordaeron, and then the mages of Dalaran will inevitably dominate this declining Lordaeron.

And Dalaran will thus become the new core of the alliance. ”

"Did you arrange all this?"

"Ha, I'm not that calculating."

But looking at Wang Xuan's smug expression, he knew that he was struggling at all.

Murphy saw something different in all of this.

First of all, Godwin's original plot quest was changed, and the [Spirit of Light] quest that the card owner couldn't complete directly became a relatively easy [Awaken the Holy Light] quest, although it seemed difficult, but at least there was hope for completion.

Even Godwin has become an important plot hero.

It's just pushing him forward.

Then it was Morgan Lisa who completed the Guardian's origin plot mission, also under the secret control of Wang Xuan.

It seems that Wang Xuan is pushing the players of the original story quest to complete their quest.

So what is all this for?

He's the best among the players in the screen!

No, he's screening his teammates!

Murphy could almost have foreseen that when Godwin and Morgan Lisa completed the final part of the original story mission, they would definitely receive a Hall of Fame reward, and they would also go to the game company to get an invitation from Wang Xuan.
