Chapter 109: Inas's whereabouts
Thanks to the barrage spoilers, Saray has long known the six origins of the universe.
The six primordial forces correspond in pairs, order and chaos, light and darkness, life and death.
In the physical world, it is the natural energy used by the druids that represents the origin of life.
Strictly speaking, all creatures born of nature, including Loa and the Wilderness Demigods, belong to the life side.
Most of the forces associated with life are related to the growth of all things, which is the natural magic used by the druids.
Death, on the other hand, is embodied in the physical world in the form of necromancy, planting despair in the hearts of mortals through the power of decay, and everything it touches leads to the decay of the end of all things.
Due to the instinct of mortals to avoid death, many people will subconsciously reject the concept of death, and even demonize the death that everyone will usher in sooner or later in some literary works.
From the information provided by the barrage, it can be seen that there are terrifying existences in their world such as the eighteen-layer hell and the underworld that fantasize the concept of death.
But in the eyes of the Thornspeaker, death is not terrible, life and death are self-contained, there is life to die, and death to have new life.
The Thornwhisperer strives to maintain a delicate balance between life and death, using the druid's concept of balancing spells while harnessing two forces of a diametrically opposed nature.
The Thornspeakers have been around for more than 10,000 years, and in such a long time, they have made some progress in their research on the power of life and death, but they have also taken many detours under various temptations.
Galek Tool's Fallen Thornwhisperers have all but completely abandoned the power of the life side to devote themselves to the study of the power of death that can induce the instinctive fear of mortals.
The decaying and withering Crimson Forest was created by the Drouctan people abusing the power of death, and the forest still has a strong smell of death.
Eventually, Korlek Tours and his radical men were defeated by Kurtiras, and the Drouchards withdrew from the stage of history, leaving only a small number of people, including Golek Tours, to survive in the realm of decay.
Although the Fallen Thornwhisperers have gone down the wrong path, their in-depth study of the power of death has also inspired Orfa.
Due to a disagreement of ideas, as early as when Gollake Turr tore his face with the humans to start a war, Olfa led a small group of Rusters who did not agree with Gollake Tour's brutal actions to flee in anger and part ways with the fanatical radicals.
This mild-mannered part of Drust gradually integrated into the human society of Kurtilas over the years.
A portion of the human inhabitants of Drusva have a Drustian mixture.
After countless generations of evolution, it is difficult to see the characteristics of the Droucist people in these people, but their blood and cultural traditions have indeed been passed down from generation to generation.
Olfa gives a typical example, the popular witch legend in the Drusva region, which was originally based on Druster.
"Unlike the Thornspeakers, witches have never cared about the balance between life and death, and only abuse the power of death."
Alpha had a look of remembrance in his eyes: "Before the madman of Golek Turr came to power, normal Drouchards didn't like witches who fiddled with necromancy, but they were reused under Golek. ”
"It's a bit far."
Alpha shook the bear's head and pulled the focus of the conversation back.
"There is no good or evil in the power itself, and the Thorny Talker never considers the power of death to be a heinous evil force."
"As long as the will is strong enough, even the wicked who have committed countless crimes will have a chance to be favored by the seemingly shining Holy Light."
Orfa pursed his lips disdainfully: "What represents the power of the Holy Light of justice, phew! It's just a propaganda line for the Holy Light Church. ”
"I have lived for nearly 000 years, and have killed sinners who have wielded the Light more than once, and I have fought alongside good men who wielded the power of death."
"Salian, remember my words, whether the power is good or evil depends mainly on the person who uses them."
Picking up a dead branch from the ground, which had long been gone, the seemingly lifeless branch quickly sprouted under the catalysis of Orfa's natural spell.
As the branch became leafy, Orfa began to reverse the life force, and the branch that had been full of life quickly withered and withered.
Circling the power of life and death, Alpha looked at the thoughtful Sallian and asked, "Did you realize anything?" ”
"Sort of."
Saljan held his chin thoughtfully: "I need to study it...... When is the next test? ”
"Two months later."
Orfa casually tossed the branch away: "That's when the time limit we agreed on is over." ”
"Before that, you must master the use of the power of death and establish a preliminary balance of life and death."
Orfa sat down and said, "I promised you that every time I complete a test, I will tell you a little bit about Inas. ”
"Your mother, Inas, has fallen into a deep slumber due to her injuries."
"With the strong vitality possessed by the dragon clan, Inas's body can repair itself, but her badly injured soul hovers between the two worlds of life and death."
"Under the cover of Bonsandy, Inas's soul was not discovered by the messengers of the Shadow Realm, but she was unable to return to the material world on her own."
"The ...... Between the Realms of Life and Death"
Sarian pondered for a moment, and asked uncertainly under the reminder of the barrage, "So the Realm of Decay ......"
Orfa nodded approvingly: "Your brain is fast. ”
"That's right, whether it's Zlos of the Blighted Realm, the Helath Abyss created by Hela, the Grim God of the Viku, or the other realm controlled by Bonsandy, they are essentially an over-the-top world between the material world and the shadow world."
"Inas's soul hovers at the chaotic junction between the soul and the material world, beyond the reach of ordinary means."
"To save Inas, you must first enter the Blighted Realm of Zloth, use the Death Ritual Knife that Bonsandy gave you to cut through the space, and then light the Soul Attracting Lamp to bring back Inas's soul through the blood connection between them."
"If you want to enter the realm of blight, you must first master the power of death, use the power of the Thornwhisperer to maintain the balance of life and death to protect your soul from death, and defeat Galek Tur, who will inevitably jump out to stop you."
"I see."
Sarayan finally understood why the Orfa had set up three tests, each of which had a clear purpose.
Learning some recovery spells is to make Saren proficient in the use of natural magic.
Assault learns the Claw form in order to infiltrate the Zendara Islands to make a deal with Bonsandy.
And learning the balance spell unique to the Thornwhisperer is to prepare for entering the realm of blight to save Inas's soul.
At this point, most of the mysteries about Inas's whereabouts in Sare's peace of mind have been solved.
The next thing you need to do is to do everything you can to absorb the knowledge.
……
While Sarean was immersed in his studies at Drusva, the final showdown between the Horde and the Alliance finally began.
After all, Orgrim's expectations were not realized, and the exhausted orcs showed no signs of recovery, but more and more orcs were "infected" by asthenia.
Orgrim finally put aside his luck and planned to have a desperate battle with the Alliance while the tribe still had the strength to fight.
After the Alliance's heavy siege weapons were built, the northern gate of the Blackstone Tower was heavily bombarded.
No amount of strong defenses could hold out, and before the gates could be breached, Orgrim led the tribe out of the unwieldy Blackstone Tower and into the open Burning Plains to the south.
By the time the Alliance made its way through the Blackstone Tower to the Burning Plains, Orgrim had already set up his position, and the ferocious wolf cavalry was the first to charge with a war cry.
The final Armageddon between the Alliance and the Horde began.
At the same time, Valeera, who had fled from Quel'Thalas, once again arrived at the magical human city-state of Dalaran.
Compared to the last time he left, a lot has changed inside Dalaran.
Kael'thas and Crassus resigned from their parliamentarian posts and returned home, and Modra was grounded and banned from politics for five years.
Durandon and Kel'thugad were still bombarding the Horde Spellcasters on the front lines of the Burning Plains, and Dalaran could not play on the elderly Antonidas alone.
Antonidas, who was in a hurry, temporarily promoted Ronin, who had made great contributions not long ago and swept away the controversy in one fell swoop, and awarded him the position of Kenrito Reserve Councilor.
said that he was a reserve member, but in fact, this was just because Luo Ning was too young, and he used the official rhetoric to block those old and ineffective pink eye patients.
In fact, what Ronin is doing now is the work of Kenrito's official councillor, and it is all thanks to the young and strong Ronin running up and down, and Antonidas can barely control the situation in Dalaran.
When Valilla found Ronin, the red-haired mage who had been extremely depressed was no longer what it used to be, and the rose-red robe on his body was very valuable at a glance.
"Kurtilas?"
Busy with his feet on the ground, Luo Ning squeezed out a short time to meet with his comrades-in-arms who had been born and died together, and when he learned Valeera's destination, he scratched his head in confusion.
"As the Alliance army continues to advance southward, the chaotic magical web environment in the northern part of the continent has been straightened out thanks to the efforts of the mages of Dalaran and Quel'Thalas, and Kurtilas can teleport, but ...... Why do you want to go there? ”
Valera did not hesitate to give an answer: "Because Salian is in Kurtiras, I have something very important to find him as soon as possible." ”
"Sarjan? All right...... I understand. ”
Hearing the name of the other friend, Ronin agreed to Valeera's request without much hesitation, swinging his staff to open the portal to Bollarus.
"Admiral Dalin is on an expedition, and now Kultiras is overseen by Queen Catherine."
Before Valera entered the portal, Ronin quickly used his finger to draw a series of arcane runes in the air, and soon a letter appeared.
"This is my letter of introduction in my capacity as Councillor Kenrito, and it should allow you to meet Queen Catherine." (To be continued)
