Chapter 470 Stay safe
Chapter 470 Stay safe
Prince Kael'thas of the Blood Elves took away a considerable number of elite troops... The remaining forces in Silvermoon City were actually similar to those in Undercity; it wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that only a group of old, weak, and disabled remained.
Otherwise, Romans wouldn't have personally taken charge of investigating the ancient artifacts and the Bloodstone Egg.
Terra, his most beloved disciple, is several hundred years old this year... yet compared to Romans's three thousand years of lifespan, she is still a young elven girl...
Romance witnessed the glory of the Sun Dynasty. The days when the Arathorian human empire and the Quel'Serrar elven empire bullied the troll Amani empire and seized its land are long gone.
The Silvermoon City Council is currently overwhelmed with dealing with the undead army formed from the dead humans and blood elves...
......
The Blood Elves had no ambition to conquer Azeroth; Aethas and the Sunreaver's return to Dalaran was a choice Silvermoon City had been forced to make. To demonstrate their resolve and stance, Aethas and the Sunreaver even declared their loyalty only to the Kirin Tor, severing ties between the High Elf mages who returned to Dalaran and the Blood Prince...
And will continue to fulfill the promise made by the mages of Dalaran when they founded the Holy City, working alongside humanity to use magic to benefit the world and maintain its safety. This was the oath made by the first Guardians of Dalaran, by the original 100 human magic apprentices, including the Archmage Alodi, a half-human, half-high elf...
When it reached Medivh, the last human guardian, something went wrong.
Medivh personally opened the Dark Portal, plunging the world into chaos...
Dalaran has been destroyed and rebuilt several times...
This has now drawn the ire of Malygos, the Blue Dragon Aspect, and the Spellweavers... The Blue Dragonflight constantly seeks to destroy Dalaran and annihilate all mortals who abuse magic...
Therefore, to avoid harming innocent civilians and to gain the support of the Dragon Aspect Temple, Dalaran voluntarily flew to the skies above Northrend...
Lord Ronin, along with the council chairmen, constructed a defensive line in Crystal Song Forest to assist in the defense of the Dragonsleep Temple, while simultaneously monitoring the Lich King's movements...
Open portals around the world to replenish your forces at any time.
This is why the arrogant Mage Council, who have always considered themselves the behind-the-scenes controllers, haven't had the energy to pay attention to the private conflicts between the Alliance and the Horde on the two continents...
In short, the relationships between Silvermoon City and Dalaran, high elves and human mages, the Council of Tirisfal and the Kirin Tor, and the Violet Eye have been intermittent...
In the current chaotic world order, the mages have concluded that while protecting the world, they must not become embroiled in racial or self-serving conflicts... The so-called heart of justice and fairness is first and foremost power, then order, and finally neutrality...
This is the principle that the all-knowing and all-powerful Violet Eye should adhere to!
To implement and maintain the new order, Aethas and the Sunreavers offered various secret treasures and legendary elven relics as a pretext for the return of Silvermoon City mages and former Kirin Tor members...
Although Aethas and the Sunreavers were high elf archmages, they were also staunch neutrals. This is the root of their problem... and also a helpless move by the blood elves, after experiencing many changes and disasters, to not put all their eggs in one basket.
......
But can humans guarantee they are completely selfless?
Putting aside other matters, the Silver Covenant and the Sunreavers' Temple are essentially an internal power struggle among the high elves... Both sides clearly show signs of favoring the Alliance or the Horde, with the Kirin Tor acting as the arbitrator to ensure the power and status of the Dalaran mages.
Of the six current Mage Council Speakers, the human Archmage Ansrem & Ruinvevor publicly stated that Dalaran belongs solely to the human race and is one of the original seven human kingdoms...
High elves? Get lost... This is the age of humans!
Naturally, the old high elf mages like Romans were dissatisfied with this, and would certainly not voluntarily return...
......
There are many things that Silvermoon City, which has already joined the Horde, cannot do.
But the Sunreavers' Temple can, and Dalaran can!
Romans made the most of his remaining time, moving between the Horde and the Alliance, between the Kirin Tor and the Sunreaver Temple in Dalaran, between the Silver Covenant and between the Blood Elf Prince and the new Council of Silvermoon City.
Arranging for his disciple Terra to investigate the whereabouts of the ancient artifact, track down the traitor, and monitor the movements of the Silver Covenant... and incidentally, to seize the Bloodstone Egg was just a small, secret matter, but unexpectedly, it has caused a huge commotion.
The arrival of the Scourge's second-in-command surprised and shocked everyone present.
A battle is inevitable; it's unknown how many will survive this chaotic fight.
......
"Alas, Lorraine, the plague messenger, could he really be the calamity prophesied in Twilight... The awakened necromancer, is he indeed the one cursed by the gods? Does the Blood God exist? I shouldn't have let Terra go to him... Only through Doomhammer can we find the answers we seek."
"But the dangers of the Bloodstone Egg have been recorded in ancient texts; it is an evil artifact of the Twilight Church!"
"Can't we blood elves wield the so-called power of the Blood God?"
......
Romans realized that something that should have been done discreetly and secretly had dragged out so many big fish, which meant that the Bloodstone Egg had a function that he had not known in detail.
Archmage Romans acted without hesitation, determined to seize the Bloodstone Egg and take it back for careful study.
Terra's previous message contained many details. Combined with the powerful evil force that could be sensed even by the resonating crystals of the Silvermoon City mage tower, she sensed that her disciple was likely in grave danger.
Archmage Romans immediately led his team to the scene... Dragonhawks move extremely fast, and Silvermoon City isn't far from Hillsbrad...
With the assistance of the Sunreavers' Temple, he fought alongside humanity.
I arrived at Atonement Isle this morning and encountered the great lich Kel'Thuzad. I settled both old and new scores.
I just don't know if I can handle Kel'Thuzad, who has transformed into a Grand Lich, and his ruthless minions... while the Grand Lich is distracted dealing with the Void creatures...
Romans launched a barrage of magical missiles to seize the initiative, but after clearing the area, his eyes darted around, searching for his beloved disciple...
......
"Mr. Romans, it's been a long time! How have you been?"
"Kel'Thuzad, do you still recognize me?"
......
“Sir, you are a man of great talent. You once taught us the principles of arcane magic, which I will never forget. When you were already an Archmage of Arcane and the principal professor of the Transmutation school, I was just an apprentice who could only cast Frost Armor.”
"Things have changed. You are now a chilling lich. Your magic is no less powerful than mine..."
......
Kel'Thuzad let out a happy laugh:
“That is natural. My master bestowed upon me unparalleled power, exceeding the lifespan of all mortals. I am immortal... This is something that even the pinnacle of arcane magic cannot achieve. Even if the guardians of millennia accumulate vast amounts of magic, they will ultimately be nothing but a pile of bones, while I am immortal!”
"Your magical skills are exceptional, but even the lifespan of a high elf has its limits... In order not to bury your talent and power, submit to my lord, and His Majesty will grant you eternal life..."
"I don't want to see a legendary archmage begging for mercy in my palm... So, Lord Romans, there's a seat in the Blood Council for you. Would you like to consider it?"
