(Additional update for brother "Huo Zhengtinghao" [14/15])
Diakum's third Divine Descent was not smooth.
Because Quel'Thalas has opened their strange and outrageous "Ban'dinoriel" barrier, which is nicknamed "Frontier Guardian". It is a super magic barrier that covers the entire territory of Quel'Thalas. Their Sunwell serves as the energy center and extracts the underground Ley Node to charge it.
Although it is said to be "absolute defense" once it is turned on, the actual effect of this thing is actually very doubtful.
In the official history, Gul'dan and Old Horde found a way to get rid of it, and also used precious barrier stones to create a batch of brutal Two-headed Ogre, which indirectly made the "Twilight's Hammer" clan prosperous. However, that failure was also because Old Horde could control a large number of red dragons.
Generally speaking, if the "absolute defense circle" created by High Elf can withstand the intensity of mortal war, it won't be a big problem.
Last time at Silithus, Diakum, I heard Farodis say that they opened the barrier to prevent Magic Plague spores from entering Quel'Thalas. As a result, this wave of attacks was unexpected, allowing the High Elf kingdom to avoid the first round of demonic invasion.
When Diakum finally found Holy Light's stronghold in Quel'Thalas with a little difficulty, what caught his eyes were a few Hellfires hitting the purple barrier. In the meteorite, those demonic structures were blocked by Banth'inoriel Barrier, countered by the power of Arcane, and even failed to take shape, and turned into ordinary demon-scarred stones during the fall.
"You have some ability."
Diakum sighed in admiration.
But when he looked at the front of Holy Light Church, he was startled.
"What's going on? Magic Plague didn't block it? So many elves are infected? Something's wrong! They were just infected. There's a traitor inside Quel'Thalas!"
Vigilant saw those weak elves being placed in a house near the church. A group of elves Priest were busy, and not far away there was a Forest Sprite Sage who was cooking a strange-tasting soup. This was the savior Sun King sent back from the Stormwind Kingdom by the Silver Moon mages.
"Let me see."
Diakum is looking for a suitable "Divine Warrior candidate" near Holy Light Church. His current Faith Power is only enough to make another Temporary God Chosen.
Must be more cautious.
Fortunately, among the Holy Light users of Quel'Thalas, there is also a "spare tire" who meets the strict requirements of Vigilant. Considering that Holy Light's belief has never been "explicit" on High Elf's side, it is not that difficult for him to find the right person.
"Long chestnut hair, pointed ears that are longer than others of the same kind, you are still Priest. It's you, the "green plum loser" Liadrin who always ends up being stolen from Stromgarde!"
With Vigilant's subtle and hateful laughter, a ball of light fell on the body of a very tired elf Priest Gleam, waking her up from resting on the table, and then she was surprised to see the uncontrollable Holy Light burning in her hands.
This shocked the female Priest.
She was worried whether this Holy Light would hurt herself and her companions, but she soon calmed down.
"Where are you now?"
Diakum comforted this elf girl who had not experienced the pressure of fate and was therefore somewhat innocent. He asked in Thalassian:
"Why are so many elves suddenly infected with Magic Plague?"
"Who are you? Some kind of evil spirit?"
Liadrin picked up the scripture at hand very vigilantly.
It was a sacred object given to her by her adoptive father, His Excellency Vondelor, the leader of High Elf Holy Light Follower. It is said that it was consecrated in Light's Hope Chapel and could protect her from evil spirits.
Because High Elf has been in constant contact with Amani Troll, who is good at voodoo and sorcery, this kind of protection is absolutely necessary.
What makes Diakum gratified is that compared to human Priest who focuses on chanting sutras to protect his soul, High Elf Priest's career choice is obviously more "flexible".
Young Liadrin is not just a Priest. She has received combat training since childhood and is good at using war hammers and spears. Although she is not a brave Warrior, it saves Diakum the need to teach her how to fight.
"I am Vigilant, the foreign Saint who came to the Stormwind Kingdom in the light. You may have heard of my name. It was I who brought Spriggans into Azeroth so that the elves in front of you who were tortured by Magic Plague can receive effective treatment.
I've satisfied your curiosity, Liadrin, now it's your turn to answer my questions."
Diakum asked:
"Why are these elves infected with Magic Plague?
Your Excellency Phoenix Guard Farodis told me that Banth'inoriel Barrier has always been on, which can filter out the influence of Magic Plague. Even if Magic Plague spread in the early stage, I believe High Elf has enough means to control the spread of the disease.
Now there are so many new patients, which is not right."
Liadrin has heard of the name "Vigilant" because a good friend of hers wrote her a letter detailing Stormwind's glorious night of victory. After her friend In Finna Goldsword's letter, his brave friend has been praising Vigilant's greatness and selflessness, and she has become Paladin, which makes Liadrin also very happy.
She also tried to persuade her good friend to become a Priest.
Therefore, after learning the identity of Diakum, Liadrin immediately replied:
"We don't know that Magic Plague has indeed been controlled before, and Phoenix Guard has brought back new methods. Many spellcasters infected with Magic Plague have tried the mysterious "Ascension Ritual" and are completely immune to the influence of Magic Plague.
Silvermoon Council is preparing for a super large-scale ascension to solve the remaining Magic Plague epidemics in the country at once.
But a new patient appeared just at this time.
No warning!
They seemed to be infected overnight, from Windrunner Spire to Goldenmist Village to Suncrown Village. The epidemic spread faster than imagined. In two or three days, all the residents here became patients.
We are now at Fairbreeze Village.
This is also where Quel'Thalas currently places patients, but the sudden appearance of the devil yesterday interrupted our treatment of patients."
The young and kind elf Priest sighed and said:
"Spellcasters and Warriors must be dispatched to protect each Rune Stone area of Banth'inoriel Barrier, so that patients cannot gather quickly. If this continues, large-scale infection will be unstoppable."
"So, you have never doubted that there is a traitor behind this?"
Diakum After listening to Liadrin's description, he said:
"Magic Plague is not the most fatal problem right now, the problem is your Sunwell!
Although it is not as brilliant as the ancient Well of Eternity, it is still an excellent natural portal among evil Magic Eye. When the demons fully invade Northern Borderlands, they will never give up on capturing your Holy Land.
I guess, Sun King has ordered the Grand Maguss of Quel'Thalas to gather at Isle of Quel'Danas to defend Sunwell?
If those traitors who deliberately spread Magic Plague and weaken High Elf are hidden among them, wouldn't this be opening the door to thieves and seeking death?"
Liadrin was shocked.
Thinking along Vigilant's train of thought, she immediately realized that her motherland was in extreme danger.
"I now appoint you as my "Temporary God Chosen", the Liadrin of Quel'Thalas. I will exchange all your talents in the future now, and your Holy Light will be improved enough to kill most demons.
Go to Sunwell now!"
Diakum said to her:
"I will contact your Phoenix Guard and cooperate with you inside and outside, remember! Once the devil really captures Sunwell, don't hesitate, call me immediately to descend on your spirit, and I will control Holy Light and infuse it into your Holy Land.
Even if I blow it up, I don't want to see a terrifying portal directly connected to Twisting Nether appearing at the northernmost end of the Eastern Continent.
You have to know that with the scale of Sunwell, the demigod Greater Demon can be allowed to freely enter and exit this world. If it is really opened now, the disaster of tens of millions of Northern Borderlands creatures will come in an instant!
Although saying this will put a lot of pressure on you, the fate of "Holy Light's daughter" Liadrin, Quel'Thalas and mainland Northern Borderlands is indeed on your shoulders now.
Go ahead."
Vigilant's consciousness left behind the knowledge of controlling Lightsworn combat skills, and then separated and returned to his true body.
Liadrin stood there in confusion.
The Holy Light she released unconsciously even caused the surroundings of this small house to light up with golden lines of light.
This scene immediately aroused the curiosity of the elves. When they noticed Liadrin who was like the "incarnation of Holy Light" at this time, these Priests shouted miracles.
The leader of the elves Priest, high-level Priest Vondelor, quickly received the news.
This highly respected elf, old Priest, was the direct disciple of Priest Mireidal, the first female human being. He could tell at a glance that Liadrin's situation at this time was "Faith Incarnation", and he knew that his adopted daughter had received the inspiration of the Holy Spirit.
"There is no need to tell me what your mission is, my daughter."
Old Priest happily handed the holy silver war hammer he inherited from his mentor to his adopted daughter and disciple. He said warmly:
"When I was young, I also saw the pure Ms. Mireidal walking in this incarnation Mortal realm, so Holy Light must have given you a mission that is related to the future of countless people. Go and carry it out, child.
In this era of demonic invasion and Magic Plague running rampant, you have been selected by Holy Light to become our "soul guardian" Quel'dorei.
I feel proud of you."
"But father, I"
Liadrin took the sacred war hammer from her father and carried a caster's shield full of magical power behind her back. She said with some lack of confidence:
"The Holy Spirit told me to do something so terrible that I might become a sinner to the people."
"No, Holy Light has its own moral principles."
Old Priest seemed to have guessed it, and he said in a serious voice:
"Quel'dorei's thousands of years of depravity have made me sad. My child, that glorious sacred well has protected our kingdom, but without it, Quel'dorei can still live well. Maybe it's time
Quel'Thalas must not make the same mistake as Elven Empire!
The mistakes Azshara made cannot be repeated by us, go ahead, this is the will of Holy Light.
You will not become the sinner of the people, on the contrary, you will become our "Redeemer", and I will feel proud of you, my daughter."
"Hmm."
The encouragement from his adoptive father strengthened Liadrin's confidence.
She summoned her Hawkstrider and rushed out of Fairbreeze Village, but she had no intention of rushing to Isle of Quel'Danas by land. That was unrealistic. The island was in the ocean beyond the continental shelf, so you could either take a boat or fly there.
Even teleportation is prohibited there, well, it's prohibited most of the time.
She must use smarter methods to reach her destination. Fortunately, Liadrin has many good friends with great powers.
"A-Qiang! Come out quickly, A-Qiang, I need your help with something important."
Outside Eastern Sanctum's ranger camp not far from Fairbreeze Village, Liadrin shouted the name of his childhood sweetheart.
Not long after, amidst the winks and good-natured laughter of the other rangers, the sullen ranger commander Lor'themar Theron came out fully armed. He glared at Liadrin, but finally sighed.
"You shouldn't come near this place. Civilians like you are not allowed to come near Rune Stone, Liadrin during the war."
Lor'themar Captain lowered his voice and gritted his teeth and said:
"And we made an appointment when we were kids, you can't call me this damn nickname!"
"Oh, who made your name so difficult to pronounce? And I think the nickname Fina gave you is very good and catchy."
Liadrin smiled, and then told Lor'themar Theron what had just happened with a serious expression.
The two grew up together, were captured by Trolls together, and escaped from danger together. Although they were young, they had experienced life and death. In fact, the relationship between the two was quite ambiguous, but no one took the initiative and it has been delayed until now.
Lor'themar believed that Liadrin would not deceive him, especially the information Liadrin told about the traitor who might team up with the devil to attack Sunwell, which made him take it very seriously.
"We don't have the authority to act, so we must notify Ms. Alleria immediately."
A-Qiang Uh, Lor'themar Theron said seriously to Liadrin:
"In the absence of Ranger General, Ms. Alleria is temporarily managing Farstriders. She is at Farstrider Lodge at this time. Come with me now! We must get her permission to go to Sunwell.
Don't worry, the gathering of Grand Magus from all over the world is not over yet, we still have time!
Hiss with me!
Why are your hands so hot?
Like a piece of red-hot iron!"
"Oh, this is the power Vigilant left to me. It is said that those who have bad intentions will be burned. So, A-Qiang, you have "bad intentions" towards me, right?"
"Hey, what a nosy Saint!"
"Dudududu"
The activated secret stone kept vibrating in Diakum's hand, but Farodis never answered the "phone", which made him a little worried.
The situation at Quel'Thalas seems stable, but because of the existence of Sunwell, it is the most dangerous strategic point for Northern Borderlands. In fact, after Diakum evaluated the situation at Lordaeron City, he came to a conclusion.
Northern Borderlands The demons currently invading are all "cannon fodder"!
The real elites under Polluter have not been used yet, and those demonic dragons flying from the Stormwind Kingdom to Northern Borderlands did not appear on the battlefield of the demonic invasion at all. Where have those demonic dragons gone? What are they planning to do?
Combined with the surging undercurrent of Quel'Thalas at this time, it seems that the answer is already obvious.
A "purely natural" world-class Burning Legion portal
"Damn it Sunwell! Is that magic so easy to suck? Just suck it, suck it! Just break all your Quel'dorei's spines before you start searching for salvation in a blood-soaked way. Why are you so early in the game?"
Diakum couldn't help but curse.
He stared at the secret stone that was still vibrating in his hand and scolded:
"Why are things related to elves always so bad!"
After waiting patiently for several minutes, the secret stone given by Farodis was finally connected. The voice from old Lich was very tired, and he said:
"I just completed the third inspection of Sunwell. I can probably guess what you are worried about. Don't worry, this wonder will not repeat the tragedy of Well of Eternity."
"I'm very confident, but I don't know if the methods are as strong as your words."
Vigilant's voice was full of distrust.
He said sharply:
"Hasn't the abnormal spread of Magic Plague in your country made you aware of the seriousness of the problem? There must be demon spies among your spell casters! In this case, you still need to recruit them to protect Sunwell?
Are you guys, hmm?
Wait!
You said you know what I'm worried about?
So what is this call actually about?"
"At this dangerous moment, if we don't let those with malicious intentions take advantage of this opportunity to be completely exposed, and if we don't let the cancer in the country appear and then ruthlessly get rid of it, how can we let them live Winter Veil Festival?"
Farodis's voice was full of indifference, he said:
"Don't worry, I've made all the arrangements! As long as those guys dare to show their faces, I guarantee they won't be able to escape. As for Polluter who wants to take our Sunwell as a portal, hehe, I really hope it comes through Sunwell this time!
I can't tell you what our trump card is, but I will tell you that if Greater Demon really tries to capture Quel'Thalas in this way, Quel'dorei will definitely teach them a lesson they will never forget!
We are all elf leaders who have experienced War of the Ancients, Diakum, how could we not learn enough painful experiences from it?"
"I see, but if you can really learn your lesson, then Sunwell should not have appeared at all! Facts have proved that you are still following the old path."
Vigilant nodded and said:
"I originally planned to go there in person, but if you are prepared, forget it. One of my temporary designated Divine Warrior is on his way to Sunwell. If necessary, I will support you in another way."
"I beg you, please don't turn Sunwell into a terrible "Devourer of Worlds", okay?"
Old Lich sighed and said:
"Leave some way for us Quel'dorei to survive. Compared to you in that situation, I would rather face a hundred Greater Demon and attack them with a single sword and Charge."
"It depends on my mood then. You pointy-eared people who don't know how to learn a lesson really need to be punished."
