Chapter 842: Sitting High in the Heavens? Come down for me!
Lalars is now the leader of the Far Wanderers, and as the only male in the Windranger family, he will need to inherit the Windranger family business sooner or later.
In order to increase his knowledge and experience in commanding troops, Sylvanast applied to the Sun King, and this raid on the Molten Heart brought him with him.
The Far Travelers are not an official organization, but an organization founded spontaneously by non-governmental people.
In principle, even the Sun King did not have the authority to dictate to them.
That being said, when the Sun King put down his position and issued a commission in his private capacity, it was impossible for any leader of the Far Wanderer to lose face at all.
Moreover, Sylvanas is just going through the procedure for his own public office to prevent civilians from entering the barracks and breaking the rules.
If it were to be more serious, Sylvanas could have forced Russ to accompany him as an older sister, and most people would choose to turn a blind eye to this kind of border violation.
Unless the territory and citizens of Quel'Thalas are in danger, Far Travelers whose purpose is to protect the legitimate rights and interests of all the High Elves and their descendants will not be taken lightly.
This time, Rath only followed Sylvanas in his private capacity, leaving his lieutenant, Haduron Mingyi, to stay behind at the Far Wanderer's camp to take care of the day-to-day affairs.
After a long time, under the strict urging and teaching of many ranger elders, the strength of Lairas has made great progress.
His Ranger level has reached level 45, and he is not too far from entering the Legendary realm, and the speed of progress is even somewhat beyond Sarren's expectations.
But being self-motivated is a good thing after all.
As the Scourge enters its active period, Azeroth is about to enter a stormy era again, and the Burning Legion and the Old Gods will jump out one after another to cause trouble.
The stronger your own strength, the more sure you can be of protecting yourself and the important people around you, and protecting the home you rely on for survival.
According to the timetable established by the original history, there are still 3-4 years before the official attack of the Scourge Legion.
However, given the many changes that Sarean has made to important events in history, this time is not necessarily accurate.
At Kil'Gardan's urging, Naozu may be launched early, or it may be delayed, in short, it is unlikely that the original timeline will be accurately stuck.
Once Naozu plans to officially announce the rise of the Scourge to the world, Kel'thugad will definitely find a way to inform Sarean of the news in advance, so that the guardians of Azeroth will have enough time to prepare.
In short, the rise of the Scourge Legion is an inevitable event, and the so-called Lich King is just a pawn of the Shadow Realm and the Burning Legion, and can only dance under their command.
Before their own strength is not enough to deal with the unknown dangers that will inevitably bring about changing history, rashly taking action to strangle the Scourge Legion will only lead to more serious consequences.
With Sarren's advance arrangement, it is impossible for the Scourge to inflict irreparable damage on Azeroth as in the original history, at least Sarjan will never allow Quel'Salas to be defeated by the Scourge Legion.
As for Kil'Gardan's attempt to obtain the power of the Well of the Sun to summon Akmund the Polluter...... Salian also came up with a countermeasure, and it couldn't just be a little more waste.
After discussing with the barrage, Salian basically agreed with their opinion.
Akmund the Polluter must descend on Azeroth, and he must die in Azeroth.
Great demons of the level of Akmund and Kilgardan, if they want to resurrect them, the energy they need to consume is not a joke, it must be an astronomical amount.
In the original history, Akmund died many years ago, as evidenced by the fact that the Burning Legion still did not resurrect him.
In other words, if Acmund could be killed in Azeroth, the Polluter would be semi-permanently out of the Burning Legion's long-running war with Azeroth, making it easier to fight the Burning Legion in the future.
And there is another consideration for Sarean.
The Night Elves have been enjoying the blessings of immortality in the World Tree Nodashir for 10,000 years, and some of them even distinguish their forms of existence from mortals, and always put on a high-minded posture when communicating with other races.
Sarean was not used to this, and he would not allow any mortal race to claim to have different life forms, and to step on the heads of other races, even if they were distant relatives of the High Elves.
Therefore, Nodashir is also bound to be fried.
Strictly speaking, it wasn't Nodashir that was blown up, but the arrogance that the Night Elves had brewed after tens of thousands of years of privilege.
At least until this happens, Saray will not intervene to change history.
After the end of the Third Great War, the Night Elves who have lost their eternal life will return to the same level as the other mortal races of Azeroth.
At that time, other nations, including Quel'Thalas, will be able to negotiate with the Night Republic as true equals and build a strong line of defense against Azeroth.
Some people in the barrage think that this plan is insidious, typical of hurting others and benefiting themselves.
Sarayan has no comment on this and does not intend to refute or explain.
In the big picture, pulling the Night Elves off the altar is a must, just not having to let them lose too much of the population in the Third World War like they did in the original history.
Saljan briefly reminisced with Lalars and encouraged him to continue his efforts.
After that, he crouched in this unattended corner with the soldiers of Quel'Thalas, patiently waiting for Valera to deliver the most critical item to dismantle the Molten Heart.
Unable to move around, Sarayan and the others had to entertain themselves.
While watching Lass and Liadline play the Hearthstone card game, Sarjan chatted with Sylvanas, who was watching the game.
As a high-ranking officer in Quel'Thalas, Sylvanas was not as efficient at receiving information as the Backlight Blade's thieves, but it wasn't much slower.
She also heard about the Dark Gate's increasing movements, and it was with mixed feelings that she told Salaan about Aurelia who had been separated for many years.
In the 8th year of the Dark Gate, Aurelia volunteered to stay with the Expeditionary Force to stay with Draenor, and since then, the Windranger family has not seen her since.
Not only Sylvanas, but also Wenlesa, who is stationed in Shyashan Dara, and Laras, who is trying to improve themselves, miss their eldest sister.
Although Li Leisa, who is in charge of the cabinet, does not say anything, as her children, the three Windranger siblings can see their mother's worry and nostalgia for Aurelia's delayed return.
"Aurelia ......"
Speaking of Aurelia on the other side of the Dark Gate, Salaen's expression was a little subtle.
According to the original history, it was during her stay in Draenor that Aurelia developed a relationship with Tulayan, and gave birth to a half-elf son named Aratol.
In this timeline, Salian doesn't think there's any peachy connection between Aurelia and Tulayan, but there's such a thing as historical inertia...... Who can say for sure?
After 6 years of working together in Draenau, it is not surprising that even if the two really sparked a relationship.
Although there is no definite basis for this, Salian has a hunch.
Perhaps when the Scourge officially launches its attack, the Dark Gate will also open again at the same time, launching a two-pronged invasion of Azeroth.
If the Burning Legion did enter Azeroth through the Dark Gate, the few troops that the Watchtower was currently garrisoning would not be enough.
To put it more seriously, even if the Storm Kingdom pours all its strength into it, there is a high probability that it will not be able to catch it, and at most it will delay the advance speed of the Burning Legion.
The Stormwind Kingdom is the most important line of defense guarding the Dark Gate, and the northern nations have already learned a lesson that they must not allow the Stormwind Kingdom to perish again.
Otherwise, the demons who destroyed the Stormwind Kingdom would easily be able to drive straight into the populated areas of the north, just like the old tribes back then.
Fortunately, after receiving Saljan's reminder, the young King Varian immediately raised his guard, asking for reinforcements from Eagle's Nest, Nomorigen and Ironforge Castle, and also sent a warning letter to the long-standing Lordaeron Alliance.
Retracting his misguided thoughts, Sarjan patted Sylvanas on the shoulder comfortingly: "Don't worry, you know Aurelia's strength, she won't be killed by demons so easily." ”
"Even if she encounters an enemy that she can't defeat, with her mobility as a ranger, there's no problem in escaping the battlefield."
Sylvanas smiled bitterly and nodded: "I'm afraid that Aurelia will give up the advantage of the Ranger to fight for control of the Dark Gate. ”
Sallian hesitated: "This ...... Probably not. ”
[Actually, it's not completely impossible, but the premise is that Aurelia doesn't fall into the trap of the Burning Legion and is picked up by the Holy Light Legion in the Twisted Void.] 】
