Among them, there are eight princesses and five princes, a total of thirteen heirs to the throne.
In addition, Queen Amraru Moonflower has an elder brother named Guilio, who theoretically also has the right to inherit the throne.
However, among so many heirs, there was no open or covert fighting for the throne.
After all, Evermeet is not any other place. Strictly speaking, it is a partial projection of Arvandor, the kingdom of the elven gods, so the thoughts and actions of every elf are watched by the gods.
Especially after the Dark Elves settled, Corellon adopted a zero-tolerance policy towards the evil and corruption within the entire race, and he would clear them out without mercy once he found one.
The intrigue and unscrupulous behavior of fighting for power and profit like in the previous Crown War can definitely be regarded as seeking death at this moment.
Whenever you go to the temple to pray, you might suddenly encounter the incarnation of the god, who will shoot you with an arrow and kill you.
Therefore, the political situation in the city of Luhipa, as the capital, has always been extremely stable, so stable that it has been a place of peace and prosperity in the past few hundred years.
Apart from the occasional pirate, red wizard, and Zhentarim ship trying to figure out the location of Evermeet, the elves felt no external threats at all.
This is also the reason why the elves, who have always had a low fertility rate, have a population of 1.6 to 1.7 million on the island.
If they continue to reproduce like this for a thousand or two thousand years, perhaps the entire race will be able to rise again and become an important force in the continent of Faerun again, instead of being constantly marginalized like it is now.
Of course, Zuo Si didn't care much about what the elves and the gods behind them were planning.
After getting to know some of the most important members and families in the royal court, he accepted Queen Amra's invitation to dance with her for the first dance of today's banquet.
This is a customary practice at elf banquets. The party must be started by the man or woman with the most noble status and position present, and then others can come on stage one after another in order.
The symbolic etiquette part will end only after everyone has finished dancing the first dance according to etiquette. Guests can use the remaining time to invite anyone they like.
You may even sneak into some guest rooms or inconspicuous corners of the corridor to do some exercises that are beneficial to your physical and mental health when you feel like it.
Anyway, with the way they are dressed now, it is normal for some accidental shootings to happen.
The elves in Faerun have always had a very open lifestyle.
Compared with them, the cheating, extramarital affairs, and frequent visits to special service places in the upper class of human society are nothing.
When Elminster attended an elf banquet as a student, he was deeply shocked by the boldness and unrestrainedness of these pointed ears.
After the song ended, Amra laughed and joked, "Your Majesty, you danced really well. It was beyond my expectation. Because from what I know, you rarely participate in such activities, and you have never danced with anyone in public."
Zuo Si also smiled and shook his head: "You are too kind, Your Majesty. In fact, I have very little experience in this area, let alone any expertise. I just went ahead with it. After all, as a guest, I don't want to spoil the host's fun."
"Oh? But I feel that your dancing steps are not like those of a beginner. Instead, they are full of an elf-like elegance."
Amla showed a very surprised expression on her face.
"That's because I learned sword dancing from Eilistraee. The two have a lot in common, especially the steps."
Zuo Si gave the answer very straightforwardly.
He was too lazy to waste time learning a skill like dancing which was completely useless except for picking up girls.
I don’t think there is anything worth appreciating in dance, just like my attitude towards other arts such as painting, sculpture, gardening, and music.
Zuo Si never followed the traditional ruling class of the continent of Furen and often sponsored groups engaged in literary and artistic creation.
He would rather invest this money in public education to improve the literacy and math levels of the common people than waste it on projects that are destined to serve only a very small number of people.
Even since the founding of the West Coast Empire, the government has never held a dance or banquet for entertainment purposes.
This made those men who wanted to hunt for beauties at royal banquets, or those women who wanted to seduce the emperor to become his mistress, feel quite disappointed.
So in the dance just now, Zuo Si basically relied on the reaction speed brought by his super high agility attribute and the pace of the sword dance to barely follow the opponent's rhythm, and at most coordinated with the upper limb movements.
This can be seen from the extremely simple style of the Askatra Mage Tower he designed himself.
There wasn't even a single decoration in the huge interior space of the tower.
All you can see in the corridors along the way are cold golems, as well as bare walls, floors and ceilings.
The furnishings are limited to extremely practical chairs, sofas, tables, cabinets, and a large number of eternal flames and magic lamps to provide lighting.
Even the number of potted plants for landscaping is zero.
"I see."
Queen Amra nodded thoughtfully.
She obviously knew that Eilistraee's sword dance was actually a branch of elven swordsmanship.
Before the Dark Elves descended into the Underdark, it was widely learned by elves of all kinds for its graceful steps and pleasing movements.
However, as the hatred with the dark elves deepened, this swordplay style quickly declined, and now the number of surface elves who can master the sword dance is extremely small.
And with thousands of years of evolution and improvement, it has taken a completely different path.
After fulfilling his etiquette and obligations as a guest, Zuo Si no longer accepted any invitation to dance. He just watched the elves at the banquet reveling, enjoying the wine and food, and indulging their inner desires and emotions. He was like the two sides of a coin with the elves on the continent of Faerun who were living in danger and full of a sense of crisis.
At this moment he finally understood why Sirinsi suddenly mentioned the revival of the destroyed elven kingdom - Cormanthor.
As the saying goes, one is born in adversity and dies in comfort.
If the elves completely evacuate the mainland and stay on this island to live a carefree life without any contact with the outside world, within a few generations they will completely lose their sense of crisis and become a group of useless people who only know how to indulge in pleasure.
In fact, there are already signs of development in this direction.
So the elves must go out and establish a country of their own on the continent of Faerun.
In this way, the elves of Evermeet only need to maintain contact with that country to make these pampered guys feel the danger.
Moreover, they can regularly send some young people out for training, and then return to take up important positions in the royal court and the army, so that Yongju Island will not be weakened in military preparations due to a long period of no war.
It was as if they would send some people back to the continent of Faerun, or join certain organizations, or serve the monarch of a city or even a country, to maintain the presence of Evergrande Island in this world.
If an elf falls in love with another race during this process, or even gives birth to a half-elf child, Evermeet will allow those half-elves who have shown sufficient talent to come to the island to visit their parents and maintain close ties with their family.
Because to some extent, these half-elf talents are also one of the tentacles for the elves to expand their influence.
Khelben, Lyra, and Elminster, among the chosen ones of the Goddess of Magic, can all be counted as one of them.
After thinking about this, Zuo Si quickly guessed the purpose of this invitation.
When the banquet had been going on for about an hour, Silinxi, who had danced several times in a row and whose face was slightly flushed due to the intense exercise, rejected the next handsome man who invited her. She walked straight to Zuo Si, picked up the transparent high-heeled glass from the table, tilted her head back, drank the "Flash Wanderer" in the glass in one breath, and then burped very rudely.
This is a carbonated drink similar to champagne and happy water, but the alcohol content is not low, and it is deeply loved by Japanese elves.
Unlike the continent of Faerun where Sun Elves are rarely seen, the total number of Sun Elves on Evermeet accounts for more than 50%, followed by Moon Elves, with Sea Elves and Wood Elves having the least number.
After drinking a drink of at least 400 ml, Silinxi immediately felt that her burning throat and mouth were greatly relieved. She picked up a piece of silk to wipe the sweat on her forehead and cheeks, and then smiled and teased: "Why are you standing here all the time? You even rejected Zartarius' invitation.
You have to know that she is the queen's personal scribe and almost never shows any affection to other men.
The other two ladies who just walked over were Selsara, the matriarch of the Duroshil family, and Amisil, the ruler of the city of Nimlis. They both hold important positions on Evermeet Island.
If you can establish close friendships with them, you will be able to gain access to a number of elven wizards who are masters of high-level magical rituals."
Zuo Si sneered and shook his head: "Haha, forget it, I'm not interested in playing this boring game of ambiguity and blood relationship with you.
Evermeet is the realm of the gods of the Seldarine.
Therefore, their will is the key, and these elven nobles are just controlled pawns.
Compared to this, I am more concerned about when to start discussing the specific matters of the restoration of Comando?
Don't tell me that after all this time, Queen Amraru hasn't formulated specific plans and measures."
“You can rest assured about that.
Over the past few months, we have sent people to investigate the situation in Myth Drannor and the major forces entrenched in the surrounding area.
Originally I was planning to let you enjoy the banquet first before we talk.
But since you're not interested in that at all, let's get straight to the point.
Come with me, this is not the place to talk about such things."
After saying that, Silinxi put down the empty cup and turned to walk towards the dark corridor outside the hall.
The two of them quickly shuttled through the corridor filled with flowers and plants, one in front and one behind, and soon arrived at a room at the back of the palace, away from the banquet venue.
As soon as he entered the door, Zuo Si noticed that Queen Amura, who was supposed to be sitting on the throne in the hall, had actually changed into casual clothes and was standing in front of a map of the continent of Faerun.
There were four people standing next to her, one of whom was the personal scribe Zaltaris whom she had met before.
The other three are Admiral Amaldin Elsida, Grand Marshal Caris Blackhelm, and Chief Archmage Briseel Olisle.
It can be said that all the highest military leaders of the entire Yongju Island were present without exception.
Although Yongju Island is nominally a monarchy and the queen holds supreme power, in reality the heads of their respective fields have a great deal of autonomy and can even force the queen to retract unreasonable orders.
Therefore, the appearance of these three people means that the recovery of Cormanthor is not a temporary idea of one or two people, but has received widespread support and recognition.
Since everyone in the room had met each other before at the party, there was no need to waste time introducing each other.
Queen Amla went straight to the point. She first handed a piece of information to Zuo Si, pointed to the marked place on the ground and introduced: "According to our spies' reports, there are currently four extremely dangerous dark elf forces in the Cormanthor Forest.
They are Clan Ozkwen, House Jeller, the Spiderkiss, and the raiding parties that often come from the Underdark.
Among them, the Jeller family is the strongest, with about 8,000 well-trained dark elves.
They were originally a defeated and fleeing family in the city of Menzoberranzan. After decades of wandering, integration and development, they gradually became powerful.
The current leader of the family is Jazz the Cripple, and their main belief is Velen.
At present, these guys are very close to the location of the royal court and are trying to gain control of the maze.
If a military strike is launched, the Jeller family will probably become the most troublesome and difficult enemy.
In second place is the Ozkwen clan, with approximately 3,500 dark elves.
They are not a family bound by blood, but more like a group of wanderers who huddle together for warmth.
In this group, there are not only dark elves, but also humans, surface elves and half-elves.
They all believed in Velen, so their relationship with the Jeller family had always been quite harmonious.
The above two dark elf forces have lived in the Cormanthor region for a long time. If you want to recover this area, you must first eradicate them.
Otherwise, even if they immigrate there, they will only be slaughtered mercilessly.
In addition, there are nearly a thousand Rose followers near the entrance to the Underdark, and surface raiders who often join them and provide support.
Although the number of these drow is small, their destructive power is the most powerful.
After all, they came to the surface with only one purpose, which was to kill and destroy.
As for the ubiquitous gnolls, orcs, goblins and the like, we need to wait until we eliminate the dark elves before considering them."
Zuo Si quickly read the intelligence, a look of satisfaction appeared on his face: "Very good intelligence work, it seems that you have already figured out the situation of Komanso.
However, I would like to add two more points.
First, just two months ago, the Cult of the Dragon, led by Zia Modren, established a foothold near Myth Drannor, which requires special attention.
Because every single member of this cult is an irrational lunatic.
Even God cannot predict what they will do.
Second, there are always a large number of adventurers and treasure hunters near Myth Drannor, and you'd better think of a way to live in harmony with them.
Otherwise, if these people are angered, the situation will become very, very troublesome.
Finally, I would like to ask, how many people does Yongju Island plan to send this time?"
There is no doubt that reclaiming Cormanthor will not be an easy task.
Because the Ozkwen clan and the Jeller family are the main sources of faith in the Dark Elf God of Conspiracy, with a total of more than 10,000 believers.
For Weiren, who has been suppressed and threatened by his mother for a long time, this is definitely not something he can give up.
Therefore, it will definitely turn into a battle between gods in the end.
What's more, there is the spider goddess Rose who is eyeing them covetously.
In Zuo Si's opinion, rather than walking a tightrope in such a highly complicated situation, it would be better to find a new place to start anew.
But Cormanthor is not without merit.
Especially with Myth Drannor protected by magical mystery locks, as long as the core control is obtained, the safety of the surrounding large areas can be immediately ensured.
This is not a difficult task for Silinxi, who is the creator of the maze.
In addition, there have been thousands of surface elves living on this land, and they have a deep attachment and sense of belonging to Cormanthor. As long as Sirinsi raises the flag high, she will immediately gain their recognition.
"I plan to dispatch 5,000 troops, directly from the West Coast Empire, across the Fallen Star Sea and the Moon Sea, and land in the distant mountains. I believe your fleet or airship should be able to safely deliver this army to its destination, right?"
Grand Marshal Caris Blackhelm picked up a pen and drew the march route he had planned on the map.
Since this is a political action, Evermeet must make all the surrounding countries feel its determination, while emphasizing the legitimacy and orthodoxy of the Kingdom of Cormanthor and Sirinsi.
Therefore, the process of sending troops must be aboveboard and at the same time demonstrate the support of the powerful ally, the West Coast Empire.
"Of course. But what good can I get out of it?"
Zuo Si raised his head and stared at Queen Amla.
Considering that there is Silinxi, the strongest mortal wizard in Faerun, there is essentially no big difference whether there are 3,000 people, 5,000 people, or 10,000 or even 20,000 people.
Anyway, as long as it's not the gods themselves who come, with her strength, no matter how many dark elves and monsters there are, she can kill them all without leaving a single one alive as long as she comes a few more times.
And once we regain control of the maze, even the ghost city floating in the Anauroch Desert will be useless.
So what Zuo Si really cared about was his own interests.
He is not like other chosen ones of the Magic Goddess who would make selfless contributions for such ridiculous reasons as kindness and justice.
"I think this should be enough to satisfy you."
Before the queen could speak, Silinxi took out a scroll that she had prepared in advance.
Zuo Si opened it with great anticipation and took a quick look. He immediately showed an expression of great surprise and asked with a smile, "Is this the spell transfer you invented?"
Silinxi nodded slightly: "That's right. I think you should be most aware of the effect and power of this spell. Its value is far greater than that of a divine weapon, and it cannot be measured by money either."
"Deal! I wish us a pleasant cooperation."
Zuo Si agreed without even thinking about it, and his speed surprised everyone around him.
What a joke! This is [Silinshi Spell Transfer]! All arcane spellcasters in the country dream of getting this magic! If it were sold, even great arcanists like Ovo and Larloch would give up everything they have to offer a sky-high price, not to mention Sazastan and Sammaster.
This shows how precious [Silinxi Spell Transfer] is.
I guess only the Magic Goddess Midnight has the corresponding backup.
Witnessing Zuo Si's face-changing skills, Silinxi's mouth twitched slightly uncontrollably. She raised her eyebrows and asked in a half-joking tone: "Have you always been so realistic?"
"Of course! I can even make deals with my mortal enemies if there's enough benefit."
Zuo Si gave a positive answer, not feeling ashamed but proud.
"Okay, now I finally understand why Elminster doesn't like you. But as a great devil, you are really a role model among devils. No wonder Asmodeus personally invited you to join the camp of hell."
While saying this, Silinxi clearly rolled her eyes.
But Zuo Si, who got what he wanted, obviously didn't care about the attitude of the elf wizard.
But just as he stood up to say goodbye and leave, Queen Amraru suddenly took out a prismatic crystal and gently placed it on the table.
moment!
Zuo Si's attention was drawn to it.
Through the crystal clear surface, he felt the divine power contained within.
“索斯陛下,这是精灵诸神送给您的礼物,感谢您愿意支持我们重返大陆光复科曼索王国。只要这次计划能够成功,永聚岛将会成为您最忠实的盟友。”阿姆拉婼女王郑重其事的说道。
“礼物?”
左思的眼神顿时变得深邃起来,明显感受到了来自精灵诸神的注视。
阿姆拉婼女王微微点了下头:“是的,礼物。伟大神知道您一直对迷锁和精灵的魔法仪式很感兴趣,因此决定授予您这样的能力。作为交换,神希望您能为这次行动保驾护航,对付那些他们不太方便出面对付的敌人。”
“所以这是一次交易?”
左思瞬间明白了什么,缓缓拿起水晶感受着里边所蕴含的知识与神力。
“不,不仅仅是交易,伟大的神更希望这是某种友谊的开始。
虽然您的邪恶倾向和大魔鬼的身份并不符合我们所崇尚的价值观,而且还与蛛后有着说不清道不明的关系。
但在观察了一段时间之后,至高无上的创造者还是觉得您并不是精灵的敌人。
恰好相反!
您可以成为我们的盟友,帮助我们更好的在费伦大陆立足。”
此刻的阿姆拉婼女王明显已经不是在代表自己或者永聚岛,而是代表了强大的精灵主神科瑞隆。
“我很荣幸能够与席德瑞恩诸神建立友谊,尤其是伟大的柯瑞隆·拉瑞斯安,所有精灵的创造者和守护者。代我向他问好,同时感谢他的慷慨。”
说罢,左思直接激活水晶中所蕴含的知识和神力。
瞬间!
这一切迅速被吸收消化转变为属于自己的力量。
与此同时,他的相貌也发生了些许改变,两只人类标志性的圆耳朵变得有些尖锐,四肢和身材也变得修长了一点,就连五官都呈现出一种精灵风格的清秀。
不用问也知道,左思又获得了一个新的形态变化,那就是精灵。
而且这种变化并不像变化系法术那样,仅仅是外形和基因上的改变,而是灵魂中被注入了属于精灵的特质,可以直接与精灵国度阿梵多连接在一起。
高等精灵法师们正是通过这种链接,才能借助神的力量来施展那些强大到足以毁天灭地的法术,建立起一个个令其他种族施法者瞠目结舌的魔法迷锁。
“您精灵的样子很英俊。”
阿姆拉婼女王发自内心的称赞道。
“谢谢夸奖,不过我还是更喜欢保持人类的样子。
如果没有什么其他的事情,我就先返回阿斯卡特拉了。
因为我最近正在探索一个新世界,而且在那个世界发现了一群自称高等精灵的有趣种族。
也许以后有机会,我可以带您去亲眼见见他们。”
伴随着最后一个字脱口而出,左思瞬间恢复成了人类的模样启动传送魔法消失在原地。
他前脚刚走,一名留着金色长发的男性精灵便凭空降临,浑身上下洋溢着语言无法形容的强大神力。
包括女王在内的所有精灵高层在见到这位现身之后,立马跪在地上用实际行动表达了最最崇高的敬意。
因为他不是别人,正是整个托瑞尔星球所在宇宙精灵种族的创造者,同时也是精灵国度的主神科瑞隆。
“真是个有趣的家伙,比外界传闻中还要有趣的多。高等精灵?这是在某个位置宇宙的全新精灵种族吗?真想要亲眼看看呢……”
科瑞隆露出了十分感兴趣的表情。
与所有混乱阵营的神祇一样,他并不是很多人想象中那种严肃、认真的神,而是那种随心所欲想一出、是一出的神,并且十分热衷于艺术、享乐和探险。
对于左思这个突然出现的旅法师,这位精灵主神其实早就已经注意到了,不过没有急着进行接触,而是躲在暗地里默默地观察。
直到最近通过巴托地狱第九层的超级赛博朋克城市,还有西海岸帝国的统治方式,确认这不是一个传统意义上的邪恶之徒和残忍暴君后,才终于决定尝试着进行一些合作。
光复科曼索计划只是第一步。
如果成功的话,那么永聚岛将会与西海岸帝国开展更多的交流,实现重返大陆这一宏伟目标。
“伟大的主神,请问您亲自降临有什么指示吗?”阿姆拉婼女王小心翼翼的询问道。
科瑞隆笑着摇了摇头:“没有,我只是听到在其他宇宙也有精灵感到十分开心。
虽然他们可能并不是我创造的孩子。
另外,我对旅法师这种随意在不同世界乃至宇宙穿梭的能力产生了强烈的好奇。
真希望也能借助索斯的眼睛去探索那些未知的世界。”
“如果您真有这种想法,那最简单的方式就是满足索斯对于知识、力量和神器的渴望。以他的性格,肯定会非常乐意与您达成交易,就如同他与其他神达成的交易一样。”
丝琳希忍不住吐槽了一句。
由于她是魔法女神的选民,因此并不需要像其他人那样对眼前的精灵主神太过于尊敬和畏惧,完全可以站在相对平等的地位上与之进行交流。
“哈哈哈哈!”
科瑞隆顿时被逗得大笑起来,一边笑还一边伸手摸了摸丝琳希的头发感叹道:“我的孩子,你不明白像索斯这样的旅法师未来的成长潜力究竟有多么恐怖。
好好想想,他从一介凡人变成现在足以媲美神明的程度才花了几年时间? 尤其是那种可以无限抽取能量强化自身的力量,只要没有半途夭折,超越大部分的神明只是时间问题而已。
更何况我对他为人处世的哲学、思想、还有认同的理念都很感兴趣。
因为他的邪恶并不是传统意义上的邪恶,或者说他正在改变乃至颠覆这个宇宙大多数人对邪恶的认知,还有邪恶本身的概念。
你知道这意味着什么吗?”
丝琳希低着头沉思了片刻,脸上迅速浮现出惊骇之色,抬起头用无比沉重的声音回答:“他会成为像原初者、荒神、上古邪物那样无需信仰,仅凭存在就能让诸神感受到威胁的怪物。”
“没错。
虽然可能他本人还没有察觉到这一点,但的确正在朝着这个方向前进。
所以不要用看待凡人的眼光去看待他。
你的弟子伊尔明斯特就犯了这样的错误。
好了,你们继续筹备光复科曼索王国吧,我期待着你加冕为王哪一天的到来。”
说着,科瑞隆弯下腰轻轻亲吻了丝琳希的额头,随后化作一道光离开了。
……
另外一边,返回法师塔的左思第一时间躲进自己的房间里开始学习【丝琳希法术移改】,并且尝试施展那些知晓的高等精灵魔法仪式,不知不觉便忘记了时间的流逝。
甚至连续好几天都没有前往探知之间去观察艾泽拉斯的局势,更不知道另外一场第三次大战中的著名战役——达拉然防守战即将打响。
当然,即便知道了也不会太在意。
毕竟在阿克蒙德日树并引发强烈的能量爆炸之前,根本拿不到准确的空间坐标,更无法降临分身或者投影。
所以这也就决定了他降临的那一缕意识,从一开始就不会阻止燃烧军团的入侵。
之前所做的一切不过是扩张信仰继续强化与世界的联系,顺便保证东部王国联盟势力不会遭受太大的损失。
除此之外就是给自己控制下的几股势力下达战备命令,包括巴托地狱的魔鬼军团、位于秘罗地时空的新非瑞克西亚、还有以普兰提亚浮空城为核心的玩家势力。
至于目的,当然是为了做好同时与燃烧军团和古神势力正面开展的准备。
因为从分身成功降临的那一刻开始,左思就会把艾泽拉斯星球视作自己的禁脔,一个超大号且永远不会耗尽的能量源。
谁敢把爪子伸过来,他就会毫不留情的将其剁掉。
除此之外,已经孕育出泰坦的阿古斯也已经在收入囊中的清单上了。
故而与燃烧军团正面开战在所难免。
就在左思本人忙着学习消化这些魔法知识的时候,他降临的意识已经悄无声息来到达拉然,注视着这座人类花费大量时间、精力、心血和资源建立起来的魔法之城,正在竭尽所能的抵挡阿尔萨斯与其麾下天灾军团的进攻。
尤其是几名大法师联合施展的反亡灵结界,可以不断消耗海量不死生物体内的能量。
一旦能量消失,不管是低级的食尸鬼,还是巨大的缝合憎恶,都会立刻倒在地上变成一堆烂肉。
哪怕是霜之哀伤也没有办法将其重新拉起来。
而且能量的快速降低也会大幅度影响亡灵生物的战斗力,力量、敏捷等属性更是大幅度的下降。
就连那些普通的步兵都能轻松在一轮战斗中砍下至少七八个僵尸的脑袋。
If it weren't for the overwhelming numerical advantage, Arthas and Kel'Thuzad might not have been able to attack.
However, what really determines how long this city can last is not the archmage who maintains the magic barrier, nor the soldiers fighting bloody battles, but the leader of the Kirin Tor Council - Antonius Dass.
Ever since he decided to surrender to the Lich King in exchange for eternal life, he has quietly made many arrangements.
Now, as long as the archmage activates the arcane golem hidden in the dark, the powerful magic barrier of Dalaran will disappear immediately, opening a direct passage for the undead army to where the Book of Medivh is stored.
"Tell me, Anthony, what are you still hesitating about? Are you unable to part with this body that is aging and about to die?
Or is it because you just can't bear it, and are afraid to see Dalaran reduced to ruins?
You have to understand that my patience is limited.
If you don’t take action now, it will be questionable whether the previous promises will be fulfilled.”
At this critical moment, the voice of the Lich King, Ner'zhul, once again echoed in the archmage's mind.
These words instantly broke down Anthony Das's psychological defenses, and he quickly explained: "No, I am not hesitating, Master. I am just waiting for the right time."
As the last word came out of his mouth, he immediately activated the backdoor he left behind.
In a flash, the arcane puppets that were originally guarding the key road seemed to be out of control and turned around and rushed towards one of the great wizards who was maintaining his magical concentration.
Seeing this, the great wizard could no longer stand there motionless to support the barrier, and immediately began to cast spells to stop these mad arcane puppets.
As a result of his interruption, the originally weakened Undead Army was immediately revived with full health.
Arthas seized the fleeting opportunity and personally led a group of death knights to charge, killing the archmage at lightning speed and defeating the guards blocking the treasure house where the Book of Medivh was stored.
In order to prove his loyalty, Anthony Dass also personally ambushed and killed the other two great wizards who maintained the magic barrier.
The result was that without the barrier to block them, tens of thousands of undead hordes poured into the city like a tide.
But even so, Dalaran still did not give up resistance.
Instead, they relied on a large number of mages and defensive spires to hold on, and were also organizing a counterattack to retake the Book of Medivh.
It's a pity it's too late.
After obtaining the book, Kel'Thuzad immediately found a place and began to open a portal with the enormous arcane power he gained when he was resurrected from the Sunwell, allowing Archimonde and a group of vanguards of the Burning Legion to enter Azeroth.
When the space rift opened, the legion's support began to pour in.
At the beginning, they were just the lowest-level cannon fodder imps, but not long after, powerful troops such as Hellhounds, Hellfires, Succubi, and Doomguards appeared one after another.
The Hellhound, in particular, feeds on devouring magic and energy, and is an out-and-out magic killer.
The mages of Dalaran often felt that their magic power was immediately depleted after being stared at by these creatures with strange tentacles, and they could no longer cast any spells.
Without the support of magic, it would be a daydream for soldiers to carve out a bloody path among the undead and demon armies.
"It looks like everything is over."
Zuo Si sighed slightly.
Just when he was about to go down and persuade those mages to stop resisting and run away quickly, otherwise everything would be over when Archimonde came out, he suddenly found that a raven had landed next to him.
After only two or three seconds of the man and the bird looking at each other, the raven's body quickly changed into a man wearing a gray-brown cloak and a hood.
"The last guardian, Medivh?"
Zuo Si obviously recognized the other person's identity, and his eyes suddenly lit up slightly.
"Hello, God from another universe, I have been observing you for some time."
This time, Medivh did not hide his identity. Instead, he took off his hood and revealed his iconic face.
"So you chose to show up at this sensitive and special moment. Does it mean that you want to say something to me, or to make a deal?" Zuo Si asked tentatively, touching his chin with interest.
Medivh was silent for a moment, then he asked, "I heard that you want to be the protector of this world. Is that true?"
"Have those bronze dragons come looking for you?"
Zuo Si asked back with a smile.
Because he only said this in front of the two bronze dragons.
"Yes.
Not only did they tell me that this timeline was completely out of control because of your existence, but there was no way to correct it.
So I decided to come and talk to you in person and find out what the future of this world will be like.
This is the only thing I, a sinner, can do.”
Medivh stated his purpose directly.
From his tone, I knew he was in a very low mood, and full of tension and anxiety...
