Rise of the blood elves

238 [The whole story of the theft of the Book of Medivh]

Angmar said in a deep voice: "The Hyjal coalition needs help from the outside world, otherwise with their strength, there is absolutely no possibility of defeating the Burning Legion."

After hearing this, Luo Ning looked towards the military fortress on the distant shore.

The weather is very good today. The bright sunshine locks the mist of Lake Lordamre firmly on the lake, and the open plains of Dalaran are unobstructed.

Soldiers actively preparing for war, laborers transporting supplies, and masons building city walls

"Your worries are correct, Angmar. If the Burning Legion defeats the Hyjal coalition and successfully uses the magic of the new Well of Eternity to summon their master Sargeras to Azeroth, destruction will eventually come. On everyone’s head.”

Luo Ning sighed, withdrew his worried gaze, and continued:

"I will try to persuade the leaders of various countries, but I can't guarantee that except for the paladins of the Silver Hand, others can listen to my words. You have to understand that the current war is reaching a critical moment, and all the undead have returned Tirisfal Glades, this is a great opportunity to contain them. Once the plan succeeds, this war will be equivalent to half over, and natural disasters will no longer threaten the lands of all nations. When it comes to the fundamentals of critical survival When it comes to interests, not everyone can make sacrifices decisively.”

Angmar realized that Ronin had misunderstood.The current member of the six-member Kirin Tor Parliament thought that Angmar wanted him to use his energy as a diplomat in his early years to persuade the member states of the Alliance of Nations to abandon the war on their doorsteps and participate in the Battle of Mount Hyjal. Woolen cloth.

"Master Luo Ning, you misunderstood," Angmar shook his head, "How could I have such an idea. Even if the coalition of tribes agrees to participate in the war, once they have solved the logistics supply problem and boarded the fleet to sail west, then The delay of three to five months in the voyage has already ended Mount Hyjal, and it has also delayed Lordaeron's fighter planes. By then, both sides will be unhappy. Besides, for a terrifying existence like Archimonde, there is no such thing as quantity. In any sense, no matter how many ordinary soldiers there are, they can be destroyed with just one finger."

Luo Ning frowned and said in confusion: "Then what do you mean by outside help?"

Angmar looked around to make sure there was no one around, then took out the vial containing the Well of Eternity water and handed it to Luo Ning.

"This is"

Because this transparent vial made of an unknown substance was very good at isolating magic fluctuations, Luo Ning looked over it over and over for a long time, but couldn't figure out why.

"What's in this is water from the Well of Eternity 1 years ago." Angmar said quietly.

Luo Ning immediately took a breath of cold air, grabbed the vial, looked around nervously, and stammered: "You didn't lie to me. Where did you get it?"

The Well of Eternity, the original lifeblood of Azeroth.

Ronin was born in Dalaran with limited background. Although he learned many secrets through his close relationship with Quel'Thalas and knew that the Well of Eternity was an unparalleled source of magic, he did not understand its formation.

In fact, the Well of Eternity was created countless epochs ago, when Azeroth was still corrupted by the ancient gods. When a group of Titan creations failed to conquer their empire of flesh and blood, the leader of the temples, Titan Aman'Thul, heard this and became worried. The wounds caused by the majestic body crawling onto the planet and pulling the ancient god out of the planet will never heal.

Until the war was won and all the ancient gods were imprisoned and sealed, the Titans came up with a way to get the best of both worlds. They transformed the wound that spurted the source of Azeroth's star soul into an arcane well that could feed themselves back. .

But it doesn’t matter whether you know it or not. Just understanding the first point is enough.

There is no Dalaran mage who has never heard of the words "Well of Eternity". Everyone yearns for the ancient times 1 years ago and envies the night elves' empire that was blessed by nature at that time. If they could live near the Well of Eternity, today's Brilliant, it will surely attract the attention of the world.

Angmar nodded, and in a few words, he told Illidan about his plan to use the energy of the well water to launch the Eye of Sargeras to bombard the demon army. Ronin shook his head after hearing this.

"Angemar, let me not ask where this well water comes from. Have you ever thought that it could be used in your sunwell? The sunwell has not been fully restored, and your people are still partially suffering. People who are troubled by magic addiction will not understand you, Angmar, and perhaps the more extreme ones will resent you because their beloved three magisters actually used a bottle of treasure that can change the fate of thousands of people. other places"

Angmar was stunned. He didn't expect that Luo Ning's first thought was to consider his situation, and he couldn't help but feel warm in his heart.

Ronin is always like this.

As early as when Angmar was still a small advisor under the prince, Ronin took good care of him because he and his beloved wife Vereesa were from the same race.

He said: "Master Luo Ning, don't be so pessimistic, people will understand my decision. If the world is destroyed, then what is the benefit of the race? Wait until Sargeras cuts our planet in half with a sword, I think All the natives of Azeroth will be enslaved by demons and become cannon fodder to conquer the next world. Besides, I'm thinking of ways to preserve the energy of the well water as much as possible. This involves the outside help I just mentioned."

"and many more,"

Ronin raised a hand to interrupt him. At this moment, Emineel walked by casually. After confirming that the female magician had gone away, she continued: "You have already seen it. The betrayer is basically What a madman, are you sure he will really bring back the Eye of Sargeras instead of using it to satisfy his own ambitions?"

Angmar sighed in his heart. Illidan was indeed a complete lunatic. Not only did he not care about his own sacrifice, he didn't even care about the lives of others. He would use any means to achieve the ultimate goal of destroying the Burning Legion.

Illidan is a scary guy to anyone because he is definitely not a good ally.

But in the face of demons, Illidan is trustworthy.

He said seriously: "I'm sure."

Ronin looked at him for a while, his eyes full of worry, as if he was worried that Angmar would be eaten by the crazy Illidan.After a long while, he nodded in agreement and said: "Then how can you guarantee that you can control the Eye of Sargeras? I haven't even heard of this artifact. In my opinion, you can use a bottle of well water from the Well of Eternity. As an energy source, the power of spells is probably not so easy to control. Once the spells are out of control, you may destroy not only Archimonde and his demon army, but also the entire Mount Hyjal, along with the card. The entire continent of Limdor will suffer an unimaginable blow."

Luo Ning is worthy of being a legendary mage. He can judge the energy level of the spell and the danger it may cause just from the surface.

Angmar nodded secretly.

"So I need help. I am going to mobilize the most familiar magister in the clan to the energy of the Sunwell to accompany me to Mount Hyjal to complete this plan." Angmar said.

300 years ago, Sargeras came to Azeroth in the form of an incarnation, trying to find and open a giant portal in a secret way so that his true form could come.The Eye of Sargeras, an artifact, has never shown its power, and no one except Aegwynn has ever understood how to use it.

Angmar believes that as the guardian of Tirisfal who defeated and sealed the incarnation of Sargeras, Aegwynn must have studied this artifact carefully. When he found that its power was too powerful and could not be controlled, he made the decision to combine it with the incarnation. The decision was sealed together.

It's hard to say whether she can control the power of this artifact, but at least she is definitely better at it than others.

Fortunately, Angmar knows where Aegwynn currently lives in seclusion, which seems to be on an isolated overseas island east of the Barrens.

Speaking of which, Aegwynn's life was really rough. Defeating the incarnation of Sargeras was the battle the guardian was most proud of. She fulfilled her duties, but she didn't want to lose a ray of Sargeras' soul. Sneaked into his own body and eventually transferred to his son Medivh

When she discovered this heartbreaking fact, she traveled to Karazhan to confront her son who had been controlled.But the power of the guardian in her body, which had allowed her to defeat all invading enemies and the incarnation of Sargeras, had long been passed on to Medivh, and she was unable to defeat her son at all.

In the end, Aegwynn was defeated and escaped, and has lived in seclusion ever since.Until her son was killed by Khadgar and Lothar, and before the natural disaster swept through Lordaeron in the 14th year after the Second War, she retrieved her son's soul from the Twisting Nether, and used her youth to fight for it. The magic power of eternal youth that he solidified resurrected Medivh. After that, Medivh transformed into the Crow Prophet, lobbied Lordaeron and Dalaran, and alerted the world with what he saw and heard in the Twisted Void. story.

After that, Aegwynn really retired.

She lived for eight hundred years, but the magic of eternal youth no longer existed. Her time was running out, and she lived a secluded life isolated from the rest of the world on an isolated island overseas.Perhaps during this period, I have been reflecting on whether my recklessness, arrogance and disobedience to discipline are some kind of weaknesses in human nature, because it is all these things that opened up the tragic intertwining of blood and fire for Azeroth. Prologue to modern history.

Aegwynn is one of the people on Angmar's list.

After convincing Ronin to go to the Dragon Clan for help, he will personally go find the former Guardian of Tirisfal.

"Well, it's true. Since the Sunwell comes from the Well of Eternity, and the two kinds of magic have the same source, it's true that no one is more familiar with how to use the well water in this bottle than the magisters under your command," Luo Ning shook the vial. , handed it back to Angmar, "So what you mean is that you want me to help you find some similar talents to complete that spell."

Angmar nodded, then shook his head, "No, not a human being, Master Luo Ning. I need the help of Master Krasus, and the help of the red dragon clan."

"Uh"

Luo Ning's eyes widened suddenly, but he quickly concealed the shock in his expression. The two titles "Red Dragon" and "Master Krasus" were linked together, which made him instinctively wonder whether Angmar also knew the true identity of Krasus.

Yes, Ronin is one of the few Dalaran people who knew his true identity a few years ago.The latter had warned him not to reveal the matter to outsiders.

"No need to doubt, Master Luo Ning, I not only know that Master Krasus is a red dragon, but I also know that he is one of the consorts of the Red Dragon Queen." Angmar said.

Luo Ning could no longer maintain his composure, and his mouth opened in surprise.

"How did you know?"

Angmar had already thought of an excuse and patted the Flame Strike on his waist.

Luo Ning looked at Angmar thoughtfully, shook his head and sighed: "So, what the people in the tribe called you is true. You really mastered some kind of time spell through the Flame Strike, and you can also use it to This is a glimpse into the future.”

"That's right. Master Ronin, there is no need to hide anything. Please contact Master Krasus immediately. Even if his tribe cannot provide help in the Battle of Hyjal, he can still bring us many magical geniuses from the blue dragon tribe. , he himself is also a rare helper in our plan." Angmar said sincerely.

"Angemar, you have changed so much in the past few months. I can't understand you anymore and more," Luo Ning said with emotion. For some reason, his expression suddenly became sad, "You Do you know why the red dragon didn’t join the war?”

Angmar blinked, with a look of interest in his eyes. He felt that perhaps with the help of his good relationship with Krasus, who was both a teacher and a friend, Luo Ning learned about many recent secrets of the Red Dragon Legion that ordinary people did not know.

"Well, do you know where Dalaran sent the Book of Medivh in the past? Don't look at me like that. It is the holy place of all dragons in Wyrmrest Temple. But it was still snatched away by the demon and used to open the teleportation link to the Twisting Nether. Door, summoned Archimonde and completely destroyed Dalaran."

Now it was Angmar's turn to be shocked.

The doubts finally dissipated and the long-standing questions were finally answered.

So that was the case, no wonder Antonidas looked confident at that time.

Wyrmrest Temple is indeed far safer than Dalaran, otherwise none of the Kirin Tor councilors would have sent this significant artifact there.But what happened? The Book of Medivh was stolen from the heavily guarded Wyrmrest Temple.

Before he could ask, Luo Ning said: "The dragon clan wanted to join the war, but when the Red Dragon Queen convened a gathering of green dragons and bronze dragons to discuss how to deal with the demonic threat, a group of high-level demons took advantage of her absence. Dragonblight launched a sneak attack on Wyrmrest Temple. The only one left behind at that time was Krasus, and the remaining dragon beasts were of no use at all. He tried his best to intercept, but still failed to save the Book of Medivh. Not only that, those demons also attacked He destroyed the red dragon’s spawning ground and severely damaged the red dragon clan.”

Angmar was speechless and choked.

But this doesn't make sense. Even so, in the face of the crisis of annihilation, the Red Dragon Queen will never give up.

"So that's why the red dragon clan didn't respond to the night elves' request for help?"

Luo Ning curled his lips, "Who said that? As we speak, the Red Dragon Queen is gathering an army, ready to vent her anger on the devil. Come on, you just teleported from Kalimdor. Come back and have a good rest for a long time. I will take you there at night. Submit your plan to the Red Dragon Queen. Maybe she will summon a suitable blue dragon for you if those guys are willing."

"That's perfect." Angmar thanked him and bowed slightly.

It turns out that the red dragon is ready to join the war.
