Lycantos's request silenced Diakum.
He glanced at the Spirit Bone floating in front of him, and thought to himself that if he asked old Bwonsamdi to help in this situation, his debt to it would probably double to the sky.
Black Wolf God really found the perfect opportunity to show his courtesy.
The two Lich were also sizing up Black Wolf God, who were both Death Force's followers. They could tell that Black Wolf God was a Loa who had just become a god. He was not very powerful, but he had full potential.
After all, it is in charge of the wolf pack that is currently patrolling the star sea. The number of its dependents is quite exaggerated. Unfortunately, its incomplete soul makes it difficult to further improve. If it can make up for the shortcomings, this guy may become "Loa", a mixed bag of good and bad. The most powerful handful of strange groups, even if they can be blessed by the force and become "Force Chosen" like Diakum, it is not impossible to transcend demigods and become Lesser God in the future.
Aegwynn also raised his head and looked at Diakum.
If possible, the former guardian would be willing to bear all costs to get his son back.
But now it is Vigilant who makes the decision.
He risked death in battle to help his children repel Lord of Fel, but he could no longer push the limits.
In the brief silence, Diakum stretched out two fingers.
He said:
"One, Green Skins Orcs's war with humans is something I must intervene in."
"This is no problem."
Lycantos had a premonition that an agreement would be reached, and it waggled its tail and said:
"Green Skins has its own hurdles to go through. Their Felblood Calamity has not yet arrived. My original intention is to use this invasion to make them suffer and refine. They cannot join my star sea hunting group without wearing away the last trace of Demon Blood Curse.
There are bound to be many Orcss dying among them.
But in your words, this is the punishment they deserve, and as the god of racial death, I have no intention of stopping it."
"Two, the grudge between you and Goldrinn is your own business. Don't involve more forces."
Diakum warned:
"You know what I'm talking about, Lycantos, the "Werewolf Curse" is a very troublesome thing, and once it spreads, the consequences will be disastrous."
"I won't do that, but I can't control Goldrinn."
Black Wolf God made a weird laugh and said:
"Even Elune can't subdue that rebellious creature. I don't think it will listen to you. I promise not to take the initiative to spread the dark curse of the werewolf.
So, a deal is reached?
You won't intervene in my duel with Goldrinn?"
"It's a showdown between life and death, and I, Holy Light Walker, can't find any reason to get involved."
Dick nodded and said:
"The contract is reached, go ahead and bring Medivh back as soon as possible!"
"His soul is not in Shadowlands."
Black Wolf God disappeared in the wind, leaving only the sound here Dispersion:
"Astral Mage has long been prepared for this. Medivh's wisdom amazed me. He seemed to have realized this outcome a long time ago, so he tampered with his soul. He is "Astral Mage".
Naturally, you should go to the star realm to find his wandering soul, but since you have made a contract, I will help you complete this soul attraction.
Wait."
Black Wolf God's response made two Lich suddenly realize at this moment.
The star realm is a strange plane that does not belong to Six Forces. It is not a group of stars but a projection located above Material World.
There are many chaotic creatures living there, and all kinds of forces are mixed among them, so there is basically no normal order there. Medivh is known as Astral Mage because he is one of the few spellcasters Azeroth who can roam freely in that plane.
In addition, there are special roads in the star realm that can connect to Material World. Medivh has locked Draenor through the star realm. Otherwise, there is more than half a Material Star Sea distance between the two planets, and even a demigod mage would have difficulty reaching it in his lifetime.
"Thank you, Diakum, my friend."
The haggard Aegwynn stepped forward, bowed his head and thanked:
"You have sacrificed too much for me and Medivh. You are a truly kind person, and you are even willing to interfere with your morality for this."
"No, that's not the case. My morality is related to my destiny. Holy Light is very tolerant of me in this regard."
Diakum waved his hand and said:
"I also thought that Holy Light wanted me to stop all tragedies and protect all good things. However, when I was alone in the darkness, I realized that that was not Holy Light's original intention. I realized that I could not rashly intervene in the fate of others in the name of "being good for you."
Only when I receive prayers can I serve as a helping hand to the weak and reverse their fate.
Not all weak people need privileges.
I should have realized this a long time ago, but it's not too late to realize it now.
Tragedy has its own meaning, just as light would be worthless without darkness."
"Is this what you realized on the Light-Dark Twinborn path?"
Aegwynn sighed and said:
"As a forerunner, I must tell you that this understanding alone is not enough for you to complete this trial."
"I know, I'm still summarizing more of Shadow's thoughts."
Vigilant said:
"I know it's difficult, but I've already walked into it and I can't give up halfway. It's back. Your child is back, welcome him."
Diakum took a step back.
Amidst Black Wolf God's deep howl, Medivh's spirit body appeared in the wind.
He seemed to have just been awakened and was still a little dazed.
When he looked around, he saw his mother crying and running towards him to hug him. This rare display of emotion from Aegwynn caught Medivh off guard, but under the gentle gazes of several people around him, he finally lowered his head and hugged his crying mother.
He said:
"I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said those words before. Sargeras influenced me and turned my evil thoughts in childhood into a sharp knife that hurt my loved ones. When I became an adult, after I realized what kind of responsibilities you shouldered, I persuaded myself not to blame you for this."
"It's all my fault, don't excuse me, it's my fault!"
Aegwynn said with a cry:
"It was me who only wanted to train you to be a talented person, and it was selfish of me that I wanted to pass on the responsibility of the guardian to you. Your father advised me, but I insisted on going my own way and got him killed because of it. My Recklessness, arrogance and ignorance made you bear the curse of darkness from the moment you were born. It was I who personally sent you to this point.
my child.
This is all my fault. If it happened again, I would rather you be a royal Grand Magus to Llane in the Stormwind Kingdom, inherit your father's mantle, and live a mediocre but happy life.
I know I was wrong, I just ask you to forgive me."
"But I never blamed you, mother. How can a child resent his parents?"
Medivh smiled, patted his mother on the shoulder with a semi-real spirit body, and said:
"It's all over, the shadow of Dark Titan has dispersed, and I am free."
"Are you sure?"
Farodis sighed and said:
"Dark Titan used a very strange method to combine with your soul when you were still an embryo. Medivh, your soul was even shaped by his own hands. Although Diakum repels his spiritual fragments, this does not mean that you can return to purity."
"Your soul was tainted before it was formed."
Old Meryl also shook his head and said:
"The influence of Sargeras is destined to accompany you throughout your life. This kind of filth on the soul level can only be completely washed away by Shadowlands's Holy Land. If you want to resist the supreme erosion of one force, it must be infused and cleansed by the core power of another force.
However, you are Astral Mage, and you know the rules of Shadowlands.
Once you step into it, you can never go back to the physical universe."
"He formed you to form His own intervening hand in Azeroth. He, like me, is looking for some smarter solution."
Diakum also said:
"After the failure of War of the Ancients, Dark Titan has realized the power and potential of Azeroth Star Soul. He knows that it is difficult to deal with this world through normal conquest. Instead, he will force Star Soul to further redeem his potential under heavy pressure.
So it planned to change to a more effective way. Unfortunately, the wisdom of Dark Titan is greater than we imagined.
He found the right way to intervene.
You are Child of Azeroth!
You are born with a certain connection with Azeroth Star Soul. Once you are controlled by Sargeras again, you will become the sharp blade Dark Titan uses to pierce the heart of the world.
The most troublesome thing is that it is difficult to resist the rebellion of one's own children in this world.
The Awakeners' Cult that once emerged in the Argus world is a real example. Sargeras will use this method. He is the strongest person in the material universe, but this does not mean that he will only use violence."
"So, I have to leave, right?"
Medivh nodded.
He acted very peacefully. Perhaps this soul who was regarded as a mentor in the eyes of Khadgar was also willing to bear the wrong things he had done, just as true apology never comes from words but actions.
But Aegwynn couldn't accept it.
Her son had just returned. This strong mother had too much guilt and wanted to make up for her child, but she had to face his departure, which made Aegwynn collapse again.
However, Diakum quickly used another argument to dissuade her.
"Death Force planted spies in the Burning Legion, more than one. The transformation of Black Wolf God is the result of their secret manipulation. In the context of Force Conflict, Fel, which is now wreaking havoc on the Material Star Sea, has become a tool of death."
Vigilant put his hand on Aegwynn's shoulder and said in a deep voice:
"The more ferocious the destruction of the Burning Legion, the more powerful the anima that Land of the Dead can get from it. However, as far as I know, Shadowlands has experienced a strange lack of anima in recent years, and even Ardenweald's Soulseed Garden has withered due to this.
On the one hand, the number of dead people continues to increase, and on the other hand, the anima extracted from the souls of sinners continues to decrease.
There is a big problem here!
Shadowlands is obviously making his own preparations to end Force Conflict. Once Burning Crusade is completed, it will be the moment when the power of death overturns the star sea.
The war in the Force may be ended as a result, but the price is that death will completely control the entire world.
Everyone will die, and everyone will die no more."
He shook his head and said:
"Death Force's ambitions and threats are even greater than those of the Burning Legion. We must also take action. If we want to intervene in this fate that should not occur, we must start with the details. If Death Force can place his spies in other forces, then so can we!
But such a heavy responsibility cannot be undertaken by ordinary souls.
World of Death has its own rules. Under that rigid system, only the truly wise can find loopholes and exploit them.
We can no longer reverse the trend. After all, the psychic energy that has been continuously intercepted for more than 20,000 years is enough for World of Death's careerists to create a Abyssforging army that is not weaker than Burning Legion. But at least, we can use our smart eyes and ears to obtain the movements of the dead, and prepare and respond.
Lady Aegwynn, your son is not only going to Land of the Dead to wash away the dirt in his soul, he also wants to start anew there and become the most loyal pioneer of Azeroth.
And I guarantee you that one day in the future, he will return to Material World and come back to you in an aboveboard way."
The whole hall fell silent.
Even Medivh was thinking, but Farodis's mind was spinning fast, and the big Lich reacted immediately, clapped his hands and said:
"The army of death is certainly not just for military parades. Since the weapons are forged, they are destined to be unsheathed. If Death Force's goal is to end the strife among the stars and Overmind the force system, then when the time comes, the army of death will definitely break the boundaries of Life and Death.
They will take the initiative to step into Material World!
By then, the strict rules of death will no longer be able to restrain the dead, and even the rigid order of Shadowlands will be turned upside down.
Medivh can therefore easily return to Material World and end his heavy mission."
"This is a journey destined to be difficult, but it is also a deserved atonement!"
Old Meryl said slightly harshly:
"Medivh brought the bellicose Green Skins into Azeroth. The flames of war at the Eastern Continent can no longer be extinguished. The Human King Congress has therefore been put to the test. Every drop of blood of those who died is Medivh's fault.
He must accept this Judgment! Otherwise there will be no more justice and no more justice!
Aegwynn, let it go.
Let your son bear the consequences of his actions like a real man, instead of being like your doted giant baby who only hides away at home when he makes a mistake.
You and Aran have taught him well, now it's time to let him go and let him face his destiny."
"I was wrong too!"
Aegwynn gritted his teeth, hugged his child's hand and said:
"I am also responsible for his mistakes. I want to go with my child. He has to face the pressure of Land of the Dead. He can't do it alone, even if he is Astral Mage! I want to cross death with him, and I want to accompany him to complete this painful journey of atonement."
She raised her hand, letting Arcane's energy turn into lightning in her hand, and was about to hit her forehead, but was hit by Old Meryl's Ice Tombstone, which froze her torso.
Aegwynn went to the extreme.
She got into the horns.
This is normal. She has such a personality. All the outstanding people in Arcane Path are willful control freaks! This is true for Azshara, so is Aegwynn, and Medivh is no less generous.
"No! You also have your responsibilities to bear."
Diakum scolded:
"Suicide is a cowardly act. You will only make the criminal Medivh bear more unnecessary pressure. If you stay at Material World, you and your son will move forward in two worlds at the same time for the same great goal.
You are all guardians.
You all must shoulder your responsibilities and not run away from it!"
"Everyone, could you please give me and my mother some time alone?"
Medivh said:
"I'm here to persuade her, and I promise there will be a good outcome. If I want to step into death, please let me and my parents say their final goodbyes."
"Well, it should be so."
The two Lich and Diakum left the hall, and Garona also turned and walked away.
Khadgar stood there, bidding farewell to his mentor with a complex expression. As Medivh laughed, a violet key with a raven engraved on it appeared in front of Khadgar.
"You are my the One disciple, and Karazhan is the Legacy I left for you, child."
He said to Khadgar:
"This tower contains knowledge from this world, with more books than Dalaran, enough for you to walk Arcane Path to reach the realm of demigods, but there are also many dangers here that must not be released outside.
You are not only the owner of Karazhan, you are also its caretaker.
Listen to my advice, Khadgar, don't waste your precious time on Council of Six's stupid instructions, mages should be more pure, and power is not what we are chasing."
"Well, I will remember your teachings throughout my life, mentor."
Khadgar took the key and bowed to Medivh. When he turned around, he wiped his eyes and was laughed at ruthlessly by Garona in front of him.
No one knew what Medivh and Aegwynn talked about, but when everyone returned to the hall a few hours later, Aegwynn had already collected his emotions and burned his son's remains with Spirit Fire himself to prevent the guardian's powerful body from attracting evil spirits to take over again.
The burning of the body means that Medivh has made a decision and he is going to Shadowlands beyond the limit of death.
"You have two choices."
Diakum said to him:
"Either go to Revendreth to work for Sire Denathrius, or go to Maldraxxus to participate in the struggle for national hegemony after Primus disappeared. Both of these paths will allow you to rise to the top of Land of the Dead's power in a short period of time, and will also allow you to better spy on Death Faction's plans."
"What about your specific suggestions?"
Medivh asked very humbly:
"You are a prophet. I have personally seen your confrontation with fate in Draenor. You know this well and will definitely give me a perfect suggestion."
"Go to Maldraxxus!
Black Wolf God can send you directly to Ritual Court, where you can seize the honor of Marquis Sindane and become the adjutant of Primus. Primus has been missing for a long time, which means that you can turn Maldraxxus into your own power through a conquest.
At that time, Land of the Dead's "Blackhand" behind the scenes will take the initiative to find you."
Diakum warned with a spiritual voice:
"Overmind "Death Punishment" Sire Denathrius is generous, but he has the most cunning thinking in the world. You may not be able to outplay him, so it is safer to become your own king. When you seize the throne, contact us through Lich who are stranded in the world like Farodis and Meryl."
"Well, it's a very clear plan. It's not just a spur-of-the-moment plan. You are indeed planning to fight against fate all the time."
Medivh nodded and accepted the suggestion.
When Black Wolf God appeared again and was about to lead the way, Medivh arranged the appearance of his spirit body and bowed deeply to Diakum in a very formal manner.
He said:
"I'm sorry that my wrong behavior has hurt your world. I have hurt all sentient beings Draenor. I will try my best to make up for it in the rest of my life. Thank you for giving me this opportunity to atone, Vigilant.
If I am lucky enough to return from World of Death, I will stay in Draenor for the endless years to come, treating it as my prison, and Consecration all my strength for the prosperity and survival of that world.
I dare not ask for your forgiveness, and I can only make this promise."
"If you truly feel sorry, prove it with actions."
Dick made a Eredar Holy Light Doctrine triangle Holy Crest on his chest, and he said:
"I wish you a safe journey with Land of the Dead, and may Holy Light bless your soul, the Redeemer."
