After Ashbringer, Another Divine Weapon Fell Victim to the Shameless Plagiarism of That Dog Saint!
(Additional update for brother "Huo Zhengtinghao" [6/15])
"I went in and took a look, and those Fallen Arakkoa were hiding in the corner of Blood Rain Valley. They were arranging some very dark spell rituals and distilling and collecting some very disgusting things from the dripping rain of blood.
However, due to your previous battle with Anzu, part of Sethekk Hollow's terrain was destroyed.
So those fallen servants are repairing the magic circle there, and they seem to be doing some kind of weird summons! I saw them catching a lot of Blade Tooth Tiger-Man as sacrifices. I also found this from the Claw Court guards!"
Near midnight, outside of Curse Pool, also known as Sethekk Hollow, in the east of Spires of Arak, Garona, who had completed the penetration investigation with extremely high efficiency, was reporting her knowledge to her "Grandpa Saint" and Princess Lacey.
She took out some strange scales from the material bag and handed them to the two of them.
When Diakum took it in his hand, he found blood stains on the scales. It seemed that Garona did not get these things through "peaceful" means.
But that's not the point.
When Vigilant looked at the weird "Snake Scale" in his hand, Princess Lacey next to him had already given an answer with disgust:
"This is the cursed scale of God of What Was, which is Wind Serpent Scale of Sethe. It is said that Anzu tore it short when he devoured the flesh and blood of the cursed one. The ugly wings and scattered scales are spread all over the Sethekk Hollow, and on each scale remains Sethe's curse on the world and Arakkoa.
These the Fallen are crazy!
I can't understand what they do with collecting these cursed objects? But I don't want to know either!"
The Arakkoa princess who was also Lightforging still retains the high-level Arakkoa's bright voice that is as bright as Kaliri's singing. When she speaks, the tone rises and falls like a bird singing. Even when she curses, it is quite interesting.
However, like her father, she does not use the "modal particles" such as "gua" and "ga" that are unique to other Arakkoas when speaking. It is obvious that she got rid of this indecent habit after a long period of special training.
Facing her anger, Scroll Keeper Reshad, who had already rushed back to Fenglin from Karabor Temple on Dread Raven, immediately explained:
"Hey, Your Highness the Princess, those of us Arakkoa Claw Priest who serve Midnight Raven God have been vigilant about False Talon King's activities over the years. I can answer your questions.
These the Fallens are subject to the ambition of Claw Pseudo-King Aegis. That crazy guy has been trying to summon the will of Cursed Wings that remains in this blood pool. It thinks that it can enslave the crazy power of the cursed person in order to degenerate. Well, Arakkoa of the Midnights can relieve the distortion and corrupted form of this body.
Its desperate servants are not eager to restore their noble bodies and soaring wings every day, so they fanatically follow Ikiss and collect the remains of God of What Was for it. These fragments of Snake Scale are only the most insignificant part.
As far as we know, the royal court of False Talon King has found all the cursed remains that were spurned by Anzu.
If the "sparring" between Diakum the Saint and Anzu hadn't destroyed part of the valley and interrupted the ritual of those madmen summoning the cursed ones, I'm afraid you would still be able to see those depraved and crazy scenes here."
"Is it to lift the curse on the tribe?"
Princess Lacey hesitated for a moment, then shook her exaggerated and gorgeous feathers inherited from Talon King and said:
"That sounds pretty noble."
"A great goal indeed, but in the wrong way."
Diakum shook his head and purified the Cursed Scale in his hand with Holy Light. The cold breath inside Dispersion handed the tough demigod Snake Scale to Garona, indicating that she would collect it and find Garadar's master cobbler to make a set of assassin armor for her.
Vigilant looked at Curse Pool who was still raining blood under midnight, and he said in a deep voice:
"They tried to achieve a grand goal in a depraved way, and tried to use dark means to bring light to the people, but they overestimated their own power. No matter how weak Sethe is, he is still a demigod.
They cannot control the spirit of God of What Was that remains here, and will only be reversely eroded by the dark ritual.
Anzu personally said that Sethe's power comes from the void and shadow, which means that the day False Talon King's summoning is successful is the day that the entire Claw Court will completely fall.
The most important thing is that all Arakkoa of the Midnight's body distortions are due to being contaminated with Sethe's cursed blood. Arakkoa Claw Priest themselves do not deny that they are stepping into the shadows. The curse sound of Sethe can often be heard in the field of magic, so why does Claw Pseudo-King Aegis conclude that its arrogant ideas come from its own persistence and not from the secret bewitchment of the curser?"
Diakum looked at Princess Lacey who was lost in thought and said:
"The reason why your father asked your commanders Sun Guard and Arakkoa Claw Priest to come here to clean up False Talon King is probably to make you, who is more emotional and younger, think about this issue.
If you inherit the title of "Talon Queen" in the future and lead Sunfire Arakkoa and Arakkoa of the Midnight on the journey of leading Sun Empire to rise, will you bear in mind the lessons of Ikiss and not use dark means but pursue fair results?"
"What the alien Saint said makes sense, your highness, princess."
Scroll Keeper Reshad nodded in agreement, its eyes as deep as agate rolled, and while little Kaliri Percy chirped, it reminded the princess:
"There is essentially no difference between the madness of False Talon King and the perverse behavior of Sun Cult. Ikiss was once a member of Sun Sage. After it was persecuted, it brought its crazy behavior to Arakkoa of the Midnight's Arakkoa Nest.
This is the extreme thought that His Majesty Terokk must strive to eliminate among the people, and it is also a temptation that you must be wary of.
But you can learn these slowly. Now you must first clean up the corruption of Sethekk Hollow, and with the help of Anzu, completely end the persecution of our people by the cursed people for thousands of years, let this valley welcome the sunshine again, and make Curse Pool completely become a terrifying legend that must be forgotten."
"Garona, you lead the assassins of Sunfire Arakkoa to find the source of the corrupted ritual in the valley."
Diakum warned his assassin granddaughter:
"Claw Pseudo-King Aegis and its core cult members must be there. I will first clean up the fallen rituals outside the valley with Princess Lacey. We are pressed for time, so the sooner the better."
"Take this with you, quack."
Reshad handed a Shadow Crystal ordinary pendant to Garona, and it explained:
"This is my god's Shadow Eye. It can help a powerful assassin like you escape into deeper shadows, allowing you to more easily capture the traces of power left by the cursed one.
Ordinary assassins would get lost in the midnight shadows of Anzu, but not you!
Gua, half Orcs, your mother and I are good friends, and I am amazed that a Arcane Mage like her can actually cultivate an outstanding Shadow Walker like you. Well, Lelan is indeed a magical Draenei."
"Whispering sound"
Facing Reshad's sigh, Garona, who took over the Eye of Anzu, curled her lips and did not explain too much how she became an assassin. She took a few steps back and disappeared into the shadows. Those Arakkoa assassins who followed Princess Lacey also followed her into Stealth.
The slender and flexible bodies of high-level Arakkoas, their natural super-speed movement and the unique neural responses of birds make these guys naturally suitable to become assassins, and Arakkoas are very good at high-altitude ambush.
Their "Death Drop" is one of Draenor's deadliest ambush methods.
It is said that Shattered Hand Clan's activities in Spires of Arak have not achieved much results because Arakkoa's assassination skills are not inferior to that group of sadists. Especially when you see your companion's head being scratched to pieces in a gust of wind and you can't see your opponent at all, no matter how brave you are, you will lose your courage.
"Then I'm going to set off too, Your Highness Lei Xi."
Dick glanced at his newly prepared recruits, and he said to Princess Arakkoa:
"After completing the cleanup of Sethekk Hollow, we will return directly to Talador Region. The battle over there needs us more.
But I still have to ask one more question, do those Shattered Hand Clan assassins who are attacking the city in the other direction of Spires of Arak really not need our help in cleaning up? I heard that they have built a fortress and fortress in the valley northwest of Fenglin.
I'm really willing to clear that place for my Arakkoa friend, it only takes one night."
"Thank you for your kindness, Vigilant, but Talon King has just returned to Skyreach, and my father also needs a weighty "prey" to show the majesty and power of the king to his subjects."
Princess Lacey whispered:
"Just like when it first became king, it stabilized the rule of Skyreach by wiping out the Khajiit warlord Bloodmane Valley. Since War Horde is K'ure Alliance's enemy, Shattered Hand Clan who obeyed the destroyer Blackhand will naturally have to be eliminated by us as members of the covenant.
This is to show the power of Arakkoa to other members of the covenant."
"Hmm."
Dick is very satisfied with this answer.
Compared to Talon King's diplomatic response, he really wanted to see Shattered Hand Clan's fortress in Spires of Arak be razed by Arakkoa, using the heads of the common enemies of both sides to swear unity.
A few minutes later, Diakum led his recruits to a ceremony near Fallen Arakkoa under the cursed blood rain. While preparing for the battle, Eredath, wearing a Priest robe and holding a Crystalforged Staff, walked over. He said to Diakum with some worry:
"Saint, I. Can I really use the power from darkness in front of my companions? I'm afraid they won't be able to accept such a teaching. You know, our people's yearning for light makes them very resistant to darkness."
"But you didn't become Shadow Priest just to win the respect of your peers."
Diakum looked at Eredath.
He felt that this kid was good at everything, he had courage and a spirit of sacrifice, not to mention wisdom and determination, but he often lacked confidence. It was probably because the achievements of the old Velen in the Priest industry were too dazzling, making it difficult for Eredath to have the confidence to surpass his old father.
But on the other hand, he wanted to become Garrison Commander, and also tried to surpass "sages" like Kil'jaeden in his career. This is simply a tragedy for Eredath, who has a special status.
Ah, the damn old men have gone all the way and don't give young people a chance to play. These hot-blooded old men are really too bad! Yes, the old men including Vigilant Saint are too bad!
Seeing that the young man was still a little hesitant, he stood up with Ashbringer and prepared to launch a wave of Holy Flame Charge. By the way, Diakum, who was trying out the legendary skill [Solar Storm] he had just acquired, moved his shoulders and said to Eredath:
"If you haven't made up your mind yet, you can also attack in the form of Light Priest.
Our walking "Light and Shadow Intertwined" teachings can allow you and me to gain strength on both sides of light and darkness at the same time. In addition to being the Vigilant of darkness, you are also the Redeemer of Holy Light, but this means that we must spend twice as much or even more energy than other Priest in order to better polish our strength.
Darkness and light have never been multiple-choice questions for us, Eredath. The power of light and darkness is just a tool for us, not a purpose.
Ask yourself carefully, for what purpose will you ultimately achieve Consecration as you move forward with the tool in hand?
This is faith.
If you cannot strengthen your faith, sooner or later you will fall into the temptation of darkness or the blindness of light."
After throwing out a few words of chicken soup for the soul Priest, Diakum put the helmet on his head, but before leading the new recruits Charge, he took out Flame Blade from his bag and held it in his other hand.
Maraad and Yrel were dumbfounded by such powerful dual-wielding weapons. The recruits exclaimed:
"Saint, why are you fighting with two heavy weapons? Wouldn't it be difficult for you to consume double or even more power?"
"I just want to explore the potential of Garrison Commander on Warrior's side."
Dick explained:
"Through years of training, powerful warriors can master the skill of using two heavy weapons in simultaneous combat, which will turn them into the deadliest killers on the battlefield. When the two weapons are wielded at the same time, only the destructive storm of flesh and blood remains behind them.
That's a crazy killer's tactics, kids, but you have to admit that no matter how violent a guy is when facing a tough Warrior who wields two heavy blades, the fear of being chopped into pieces by two weapons will make the enemy calm down for a moment.
Well, fear is also the weapon of Warriors
We should make good use of it!"
"You are right, I should learn from you."
Yrel nodded vigorously.
As the commander of the first company of Hand of Argus recruits, Maraad glanced at her and felt that his "deputy company commander" had fallen into the "blind obedience" that Saint had been wary of. Maybe he should correct her wrong ideas when he had time.
But this is not a big problem.
Especially after Vigilant used his skillful Noon Sun to tear apart the croaking dark ritual of Fallen Arakkoa, causing those crazy and noisy guys to rush out roaring and then be beheaded by Vigilant with his cool double blades, this raid quickly evolved into another combat training for the new recruits.
Fallen Arakkoas are amazing.
The shadow affinity they gained due to the curse allows them to easily control a series of shadow spells from Anzu and the vicious spells from Sethe. They are simply born Warlock seedlings, and every Fallen Arakkoa is a master in controlling the shadow storm.
But still the same sentence.
In front of Vigilant, who is now more and more deeply involved in the morality of punishment, most of Draenor's lives are weak. The team of recruits led by him is like a whirlwind of Holy Light that swept through Fallen Arakkoa's dark stronghold. In a few hours, they razed at least seven fallen rituals, but these were just warm-ups.
When Garona notified the location of Claw Pseudo-King Aegis through Auchenai Communication Crystal, the real "challenge" was put on the table.
False Talon King is not a big problem, just a fallen legend Arakkoa Warlock.
The real problem is that this madman may have realized the seriousness of the problem, so he actually summoned Dark Will of the cursed Sethe in advance through crazy sacrifices.
When Diakum rushed into the dark place with the scorching heat Holy Light, what he saw was a sacrifice site that was so smelly that it made people sick.
Not only was the captured Blade Tooth Tiger-Man, the crazy Ikiss even threw his loyal Talon Guards into the place of sacrifice.
This huge dark cave was filled with activated shadows and howling void atmosphere. False Talon King, standing on the skeleton, laughed loudly, and in front of it, in front of Diakum, a huge Wind Serpent composed entirely of skeletons was already trying to fly again in a terrifying way.
The latest ⊥ little ⊥ talk ⊥ is first posted on ⊥⊥⊥!
"Be careful! Although the fallen soul of Sethe has returned to the void, the madman left all his cursed power in this valley before he died."
Old Anzu's eerie voice sounded in Dick's battle helmet, and it reminded:
"Ikiss has collected the remains of Sethe that I threw everywhere in Spires of Arak, which is enough to give this resurrected cursed man most of the power of Sethe.
It's not that I haven't tried to purify this valley over the years, but it's just that I swallowed the flesh and blood of Sethe, which caused me to be partially "contaminated". I can't fight against the power that belongs to "me", so I can only use the hands of outsiders to complete it.
Also, remember to explain it to me after you finish it.
What's the matter with that power from the sun in your body? Why do you have Rukhmar's sun fire? Did you steal it? If so, you should think about how to escape, you "power thief"!"
"Well, the real story is more exciting than you think, my dear Old Anzu."
Diakum moved the heavy weapons in his hands and responded mentally:
"What if I say that this is the reward given to me by Rukhmar's will? What if I tell you that Sun God has actually been paying attention to his hometown and his lover in the distant the Other Side?"
"Gah! I don't believe it!"
"In the name of Holy Light, you better believe it."
Vigilant said a word, and then rushed towards the skeletal evil god in front of him with a scorching wave of Holy Light. He did not forget to assign the task:
"Leave the cursed Sethe to me for purification! Recruits, go and deal with False Talon King! The legendary fallen Warlock is the last part of your recruit trial. Execute it in the name of Holy Light, and then return with me to Talador to participate in the battle of glory!"
"Yes, Saint!"
Yrel and Maraad rushed out from the excitement of Diakum, Sunflare Holy Light, and they opened the bright lights at the same time. The brilliant Wings of Vengeance pounced on Claw Pseudo-King Aegis, who was still laughing like a classic idiot villain, but faster than them was Garona who emerged from the shadows holding double blades.
This half-Orcs assassin has been lurking in the cave just now, waiting for his teammates to come and push the BOSS.
The rear support Eredath is the team's Priest.
He would call Holy Light to heal and strengthen his teammates in Power Word's way, but in fact, Eredath was making a slightly difficult decision in his heart.
Will he choose to believe in his friends? Will he show the destructive power he has found in the darkness in the trial of this war?
For a son of a prophet, such concerns are understandable.
After all, the old father is the most famous Holy Light Priest among the stars, but his son has become Shadow Priest, which doesn't sound good when told.
"Bang"
The loud sound of energy reverberated in the cave. The Solar Storm struck by Diakum's sharp blade was more powerful and domineering than the previous Divine Storm in terms of scale and destructive power. Those dancing Holy Light runes were heated by the sun's fire to the point of melting, giving them a strange white and red contrast as they danced.
The sacred light burned together with the burning of the elemental fire, and was waved by Diakum to fill every part of the huge skeleton of the cursed Sethe. The bombardment of Holy Halo that was constantly launched when being hit and attacked and the subsequent Lesser Most Holy Slash caused Vigilant's battlefield completely became "light pollution" that cannot be seen directly.
The poor curser seemed to have been thrown into the "purifying sea" created by the high concentration of Holy Light. The time it took for it to complete one curse breath was enough for the opposite Saint to violently hit Solar Storm at least three times.
If Sethe could speak, he would have loudly scolded Diakum for not practicing martial ethics!
Are you, Draenei Garrison Commander, the legendary man with no basic attacks? How come every hit is AOE? And how can your AOE be debuffed and trigger execution combos at the same time?
Isn't this horse riding a naked cheating?
Well, you bastard dog Saint, you just used this method to deceive me, an old demigod who is thousands of years old, into sneak attack, right?
It's really shameless!
But Diakum also has something to say.
You are only a few thousand years old demigod, how can you pretend to be a master in front of me, an old man who is more than 20,000 years old?
If this really counts, with the time we have been fighting, old man, I can give you, a young guy like you, a few luxury flats in the city center Skyreach! Believe it or not, I'm going to lie down right now?
In short, there is no way to fight!
There is no way to fight!
Before Diakum learned Solar Storm, he could rely on his own Holy Battle Stance to independently purify the false god Rukhmar. The cursed Sethe in front of him, who was not in his prime at all, was no match for him at all.
In fact, the level of Sethe can only be considered an obscene level among all Wild God of Life Force.
Well, it's obscene in every sense of the word.
What's more, this guy was resurrected as "Undead", and it has to face a legendary paladin. Isn't this bullying?!
At the end of the fight, Diakum even began to practice his two-weapon combat with the cursed bone of Sethe. He must practice the legendary talent [Titan's Grip] as soon as possible to make himself a cool "double-sword style" paladin, so that he can give full play to his "equipment advantage" in subsequent battles.
There are four legendary weapons in the bag, but I can only use one at a time, which always feels like a huge loss.
When Princess Lacey arrived with Talon Guards, she was horrified to see that the dark cave where False Talon King was hiding had turned into a golden " "Holy Light Ocean", the solar heat emitted by Vigilant even began to melt the rocks soaked in darkness, and the screams of the cursed Sethe made it look like an insidious villain at all.
The constant release of Solar Storm's light and heat made Claw Pseudo-King Aegis and the recruits unbearable. They could only run outside the cave to fight to avoid being burned to death by Solar Storm.
"Quack! Lei Xi!"
Claw Pseudo-King Aegis, who had been forced into a desperate situation by the new recruits, knew that he would definitely die today. He was prepared to fight with these nosy Draenei, but then he saw Talon King's The baby girl was appearing in front of him. In line with the big bad idea of "if you don't have a good time, you will never let others have a good time", Ikiss immediately changed the target of his "explosion" to this princess Arakkoa.
It can neither lead Fallen Arakkoa to attack Skyreach, nor can it see the filthy city in the sky burning, nor can it save its fallen people with its own claws, so it might as well use Lei Xi's second death to anger Terokk
Let the whole Spires of Arak burn!
"Gah! False gods! They are all false gods! Arakkoa's fate should be in his own hands!"
False Talon King screamed and called for the shadow crows to circle around him crazily, forcing back Yrel and Maraad who were like tigers and wolves. Taking this opportunity to forcefully eat Mutilate Strike of Garona, he turned the fallen curse he learned from the cursed man's secret biography into a black light and smashed it at Lei Xi.
Even if he can't kill her, he can still turn this glorious princess into the same ugly state as Fallen Arakkoa.
But Lei Xi is not a vegetarian either!
This princess inherited her father's bravery. While Ikiss launched a shameless sneak attack, the two wing blades in Lei Xi's hands also flew around. With the power of Lightforging With the blessing, the golden stream of light turned into a swirling light and penetrated into Ikiss's chest and eyes, causing False Talon King to scream and fall down, and then Yrel jumped forward and smashed his head with a hammer.
As for that beam of light
"Eredath! What happened to you? Were you hit by darkness? What happened to that terrible darkness on you?"
Amidst Maraad's frightened and angry roar, Princess Lacey also stared dumbfounded at Draenei who "flashed" in front of him to help him block the fallen beam.
At this time, Eredath's whole body was covered in thick shadow.
The shadowy Arc Light surrounded him and turned into a set of dark gauze. It was neither evil nor presumptuous, but protected Priest's body in a manipulated manner. You could even vaguely see the dark phantom flickering and beating around him.
Great Uncle thought it was Ikiss's final blow that corrupted his brother. He hurriedly stepped forward to check but was stopped by Eredath.
Shadow Priest looked at the dark spell power in his hand that was completely resisted and sealed by himself, and he said softly:
"No, this is my own choice! Maraad, I not only want to walk in the light to heal you, I also want to walk in the shadows the Other Side to watch over you. The Fallen like Ikiss will always try to use darkness to hurt Person in the Light, but.
No matter how dense the darkness is, it only needs a ray of light to dispel and illuminate it.
Holy Light Ah, I have embarked on this road, I have found my own morality, please bless me."
Eredath raised his hand and released his fingers. Along with the transformation of Shadowform Dispersion and Holy Light power around him, the spell was purified bit by bit in his own hot Holy Light.
He returned to the light again.
It seems that the shadow form just now was just an illusion.
"But how can you ensure that you don't get completely lost in the shadows' allure?"
Yrel, who had completed another beheading, came over and said worriedly:
"Not even Great Prophet can guarantee that he can fight against the darkness all the time."
"I have the enthusiasm of Consecration and Holy Light, and of course I also have the discipline of self-restraint. Vigilant has taught me to use years of hard work to resist the erosion of darkness, my brothers and sisters."
Eredath made a triangle Holy Crest on his chest and said softly:
"I am not just a Shadow Priest, I have also become a Ring-Bearing Priest. The commandments of Holy Light are my spiritual armor. This road is difficult to walk, but I believe that I will make it to the end!"
"Boom"
The moment the words fell, the dark cave behind everyone collapsed completely.
As they watched, Vigilant, who was still entangled with terrifying light and heat, strode out of the dust. He grabbed a dark whirlpool of diamonds in his hand and handed it to Eredath. He said:
"Your dark crystal should have been purified under the burning of the sun's fire, just like the Holy Eye given to you by Sunflare Holy Light, and this Shadow Eye from the cursed Sethe is also given to you, my child.
Just like you always use your left eye to seek light and your right eye to be wary of darkness.
Use these two diamonds to create a staff that belongs only to you. It will be able to follow you constantly switching between light and darkness, and better protect our people in the glow of "Blessing" and "Curse Expulsion"!
I believe your legend has just begun.
I believe that the legends of you will eventually be spread in Draenor, and will eventually be sung in the sea of stars. Take a final rest and say goodbye to our Arakkoa friends.
The cursed one has been purified, it's time for us to go back Talador."
