Chapter 345: Funding
The mages of Dalaran did not stop Kel'Thuzad from leaving. A group of people looked at Antonidas quietly, waiting for the archmage to make a decision.
"Let's go..." Antonidas sighed, his figure was a little lonely. Even if Kel'Thuzad did something unethical, he still remembered the old friendship.
"Just leave like this?" On the distant Kozan Island, Vashj looked at the screen and felt it was incredible. Kel'Thuzad did something that absolutely violated their values, and this thing would bring them very dangerous consequences. If it were here, Kel'Thuzad would definitely be executed!
"Because they are afraid." Richard explained the reason.
"Afraid?"
"They are afraid that if the world knows that there are mages in Dalaran studying dark magic, it will cause a devastating blow to their reputation. Now our Mages Guild and Selena have put some pressure on them, because some human nobles led by Terenas are also dissatisfied with them because of some things, right? Dalaran must guarantee their transcendent status in Azeroth."
Vashj suddenly laughed and said, "How about we destroy their status?"
"No, that would prevent Kel'Thuzad from leaving the Eastern Kingdoms alive. Kel'Thuzad is a very good chess piece."
Vashj frowned, "You want him to go to Northrend? That's too dangerous! Any living creature will be turned into an undead by the Lich King wherever it goes. If it is used as a chess piece, it will definitely get out of control in the end."
"Did I say he's our pawn?" Richard walked to the chair, sat down and looked up at Vashj. "On the Lich King's side, Vaughn now knows about some skeletons, zombies, and spider-men, and there won't be too many that he doesn't know about. These creatures are of a single type, and it's easy to target them. Kel'Thuzad is smart and innovative, and will bring them a qualitative improvement. When their strength increases, they will come out of Northrend, and in the end, we will let them bring controllable destruction to the Eastern Kingdoms."
"Controllable destruction?" Vashj was a little confused. Richard waved his hand, and Vashj walked over. Richard drew two circles on the map.
The first circle included Dalaran and Lordaeron, and the other circle included Stromgarde.
Vashj frowned: "Killing someone with a borrowed knife? However, the more we fight the undead, the more they will appear, especially in Alterac, the center of the city. If Stromgarde and Lordaeron are destroyed, it will be difficult to defend Alterac, which is sandwiched in the center."
Richard pointed at himself: "This requires my new energy."
Vashj looked at the black energy on Richard's fingertips, which was somewhat familiar, but not quite the same as the familiar. She asked tentatively: "Is this divine power?"
Richard nodded, and Vashj was even more confused: "If I remember correctly, divine power is not in this state, right?"
"Well, you remembered correctly, the attributes of divine power are similar to those of holy light, but it is positive divine power. Three of the five goddesses have fallen, but the fallen goddesses can still use divine power. Although the attributes of this divine power have changed, the effect of divine power remains the same. One of these three goddesses is named Freya, do you know her?"
Vashj nodded: "I've read some information. This goddess is good at using a longbow and has a very sophisticated spell to hide her breath."
"Yes, that's the feature of her hidden breath, using my eyes."
Richard stood up and pointed at the magic screen: "Let the crows follow him."
"How far?"
"One thousand five hundred meters, let him find it himself."
"Yes."
On the plains north of Lordaeron, Kel'Thuzad was followed by several prairie wolves, and these few followed him beyond the range of his spells. Along the way, Kel'Thuzad had killed several wild wolves that dared to enter his attack range. Kel'Thuzad touched his bag. He left in a hurry and only took some necessary medicines and funds. He did not bring any food. He originally planned to buy some food at the port, but it turned out that there was no delicious food today. Kel'Thuzad would rather not eat than suffer from his stomach. Fortunately, there are seasonings. These wolves are delivered to the door, and cooking them is also a unique delicacy. Anyway, we can't reach Northrend today.
Kel'Thuzad's information is a bit outdated. He has been immersed in experiments for many years, so naturally he can't get the latest information, otherwise Kel'Thuzad would not have only taken a backpack. Originally, Richard's shipping company had flights to Northrend at all major ports, but since the Lich King occupied the entire Northrend, all navigation has been cancelled. It was because Kel'Thuzad heard that even the ships from Kozan Island were not leaving, so he went north to think of other ways.
"Hiss! It's so cold! I don't know how cold it can be in the north!" Kel'Thuzad, who was lighting a bonfire to roast wolves, shivered. The night on the plains was really cold, and wearing a thin wizard shirt was really difficult to resist the cold wind from the north.
"Meow~"
Kel'Thuzad showed a rare smile on his face: "Are you back? You are still the best. Only you will not leave me, my dear Mr. Biggsworth."
"Meow~"
An ordinary-looking yellow kitten stood on its hind legs, holding a black crow in its two front paws.
"Oh? A magical creature!" Kel'Thuzad took the black crow in his hand. The crow's crystal eyes looked very beautiful in the night. The crow's mouth was open, making a cackle sound, but it looked very weak.
Kel'Thuzad smiled and said, "Stranger, I know you can see me, come out."
"Cack! Cack!" The crow called loudly twice.
"Meow?" Mr. Bigglesworth looked at the eight crows, looking like he wanted to eat them.
Kel'Thuzad showed tenderness on his face, threw away the eight crows, picked up Mr. Bigglesworth, put him on his lap and carefully cleaned his hair.
"Meow~" Mr. Bigglesworth stretched his body very comfortably.
"It can be seen that Kel'Thuzad is a very qualified poop shoveler."
"Poop shoveler?" Kel'Thuzad did not seem surprised by Richard's arrival, but was very interested in this new term.
"To put it in a vulgar way, it means serving small animals." Richard picked up the crow on the ground and fiddled with it a little. The crow flapped its wings and flew high again, flew a circle and landed on Richard's shoulder again.
Kel'Thuzad glanced at him: "You are not bad, Mr. Richard."
"Master Kel'Thuzad still remembers me? It is a great honor."
"Oh. Master? That's all in the past tense. Now I'm just a person. There is no need for you and me to exchange pleasantries. What exactly do you want to do by coming to see me?"
