Title[65]
(Additional update for "Gervis" brother [1/5])
"How is he doing?"
When old Velen arrived after receiving the news via Dark Portal, it was already a day later.
At this time, in Sunwell Floating Isle, facing the anxious inquiry from the dusty prophet, Captain Fariya, who was guarding outside the main hall of the floating island, shook his head, and while leading the disguised prophet to visit Vigilant, he whispered:
"Commander Diakum has been in a coma since returning from Sea of Darkness. We found the most powerful healer to treat him, but the commander is so beloved by Holy Light that other forces cannot get close to him, so we have to keep you busy and make one more trip."
"You should have told me before he took the risk!"
Velen scolded with some anger:
"His current identity no longer represents more than just himself. As the leader of People of Light in the Star Sea, he should act prudently rather than bet himself on the balance of victory like this time.
I almost had a cardiac arrest after I heard that Dark Titan was involved!
I can't imagine if Diakum failed to escape in time, causing him to embark on the same old path of Kil'jaeden and Sarkir. If that happens, how will Eredar, who has now united to do great things, face that terrible future?"
Fareeya was trained like a granddaughter and did not dare to refute.
The prophet's scolding was right, but they had no idea that Vigilant would cause such a big deal this time. They just knew that Commander Diakum had a plan.
The current first-hand information was obtained from Nether-Stalker, Void Master. After hearing that Void God War had killed seven Lesser Gods in one day, Fareeya knew that this time he was really going big.
She has served in Army of the Light for more than 20,000 years and has fought in all parts of the Star Sea. She is a person who has truly seen the world.
She knew that even though Void Domain was notoriously disunited, due to numerous internal factions and numerous kings, Void Authority were so dispersed that Void Demigods's combat effectiveness was always in question, but the fact that that level of life could be called "god" meant that they were really powerful.
Seven people were killed in one battle. Even for Sea of Darkness, who had a big family and a big business, it was already a crippling injury.
It was hard for her to imagine how Commander Diakum did it. As for contacting Dark Titan to be a thug, it was not that surprising.
Fareeya also had a relationship with Kil'jaeden, and Army of the Light and Burning Legion have been fighting for so many years. If it was really necessary, Fareeya thought that he might be able to send a letter to Great Demon Lord.
Of course, she doesn't have the dignity to invite Sargeras.
Velen walked forward quickly, leaning on Staff of the Redeemer. Ms. Vilara greeted him in front. The two briefly exchanged a few words when they met, and Velen was welcomed into the palace.
When he came face to face, he saw Dawn Lord Kazzak holding Spear of Destruction guarding the door. This Lightforging Greater Demon made the old prophet couldn't help but look at it a few more times.
Hiss, that's a bit evil.
Why is this Diakum doing all these evil things all day long?
Kazzak also noticed Velen's gaze. It bared its teeth and waved its paws at old Velen to signal him to hurry in and leave him alone to stand guard.
Walking further inside, Velen was surprised to see five "Archangels" guarding the bed where Diakum was sleeping.
He is also Holy Light God Chosen, so we can see that these five mighty and divine Archangels are actually the five rainbow-fart little angels before Diakum, but they were promoted by Holy Light with great power.
This is Vigilant's unique "Light's Grace", which others cannot envy.
But Diakum's current situation is indeed a bit "strange". The closer Velen is to him, the more he can feel Diakum's health. The guy in front of him is not injured at all.
Perhaps his condition was very bad before, but during the time he was in coma, Holy Light's "excessive treatment" had already healed all his injuries.
It's not because he's seriously injured that he can't wake up now.
Quite the opposite.
He's a little too healthy.
"Diakum's holy power has begun to accumulate again, which is consistent with what he encountered during his slumber for more than 20,000 years. Well, it's just consistent on the surface."
Velen The brilliant Priest quickly identified the source of the problem.
He thought for a moment, turned to the group of people gathered behind him and said:
"Vigilant's "light and shadow" are out of balance. His Holy Light is overpowering the part that belongs to the shadow. Perhaps it is because he damaged Void Domain's interests and was deprived of Void Authority.
We need to release the Holy Light that is too heavy in him."
"What to do?"
Archbishop Nali, whose eyes were red, asked nervously. Velen didn't need to answer, but Twins said in unison:
"Lightforging!"
"Yes, Lightforging."
Velen stood up and said:
"Gather the new recruits of Light Weaver Warband and perform Lightforging Ritual for them here. Using Holy Light of Vigilant as the source, performing a large number of Lightforging at one time can effectively release the sacred pressure he bears.
When Holy Light is weak enough to balance with the shadow, his oppressed spirit can be awakened.
But this is just a temporary measure."
The old prophet said in a cautious tone:
"Diakum has long passed the novice stage of being unable to control Holy Light well, which indicates that it is difficult for him to get an external solution to his situation at this time, and he can only rely on himself to rebalance his light and shadow.
He is further along this path than others and we cannot even advise him.
But let's wake him up first before talking about anything else.
I will preside over this ceremony, Archbishop Aurelesis, summon the new recruits to come over."
"Prophet, even all of our recruits Lightforging are not enough to share Commander Diakum's heavy holy power at this time."
Saloras shook his head and said:
"Even if we bring the black dragons under Onyxia together with Lightforging, it won't work. His Holy Light depression has reached a level close to that of Lesser God. I think we should probably look for other People of Lights for help."
"Humans, elves, dwarves! Even werewolves."
Ms. Vilara pushed up his glasses and said seriously:
"Battle for Lordaeron has come to an end, and Marshal Anduin Lothar must also consider awarding Warrior. I think it is best to use a sacred Lightforging as a "promotion" for those who have made meritorious deeds.
This is a win-win situation.
Although rashly accepting the Holy Light enhancement of Diakum may lead mortals to the path of fanatical belief, but in terms of the current "security environment" of Azeroth, it is not a bad thing for the newly born Human Empire to have a group of fanatical belief fighters."
"Prophet, there are Ms. Vilara, actually I think we can try Lightforging and Dragonborn!"
Yrel, who was standing next to her, hesitated for a moment, then whispered her suggestion:
"Marshal Lothar and his commanders have been worrying about how to deal with Dragonborn after the war. When I prayed with Archbishop Faol last night, I also heard the archbishop express such worries.
Because of the perverse behavior of King Terenas, the number of Dragonborn and Lordaeron is extremely exaggerated. As a race with "original sin", it is difficult for them to coexist peacefully with humans in a short period of time.
But if both parties can have the same belief!
If humans can see with their own eyes that Dragonborn, which they regard as "evil", can also be blessed by Holy Light, then I think there may be an opportunity to break the estrangement between the two sides.
Huh?
Did I say something wrong?
Why are you all looking at me like that?"
The weird looks from other people made Yrel move her shoulders uncomfortably, but then she saw the old prophet showing a satisfied smile that said, "You are a teachable child."
Velen twirled his beard and said:
"Draenei Clan's future Executive Officer has also become more mature. Diakum has taught her very well and her suggestions are of great reference value. Maybe we can really try to bring Dragonborn back into the world of Holy Light.
But we must select those who are determined and have their hearts set on Justice of the Holy Light, otherwise it will be difficult for their filthy flesh and blood to pass the purification of Holy Light."
"Dragonborn Warrior under Sir Uther are all righteous men who bring order to chaos!"
Yrel said loudly:
"I'll contact them right away."
When everyone else was assigned work by Velen and ran to prepare for the large-scale collective Lightforging Ritual, Ms. Vilara, who stayed here, spoke:
"You still have some words you haven't said, Velen. Did you see something was wrong?"
This question made the old prophet look back at Diakum who was sleeping in Holy Light's package. He nodded with a heavy expression and said:
"Diakum was deprived of his power by the void. Holy Light is trying to bring him back to the pure light oath. Two forces are fighting for him. This is the reason why Vigilant cannot wake up.
But this competition has gone beyond "favor" in the conventional sense and can even be regarded as a "war."
I haven't quite understood what Diakum did in Azeroth in Draenor, so I'm curious, is he involved in some important matters directly related to the nature of the Force?
Is this what triggered this overly fierce competition at this time?
With all due respect, a situation like Diakum's is almost unheard of in the star sea after I have lived for so long. Holy Light showed a kind of "urgency" and even "greed" when fighting for him, which is really unbelievable."
This question silenced Ms. Vilara.
She hesitated for a moment and told Velen about An'she, the Sun God.
The more the old prophet listened, the more horrified he became. Until Veilara finished speaking, Velen sat on the edge of the bed. The old prophet, who had experienced great storms, glanced at his hand. His hand holding the staff was trembling slightly.
That comes from the horror and fear in my heart.
"The origin of Holy Light? The Eclipse of Sun God and the rekindling? Oh my god"
Velen made a triangle Holy Crest on his chest and sighed:
"No wonder Diakum would create such a horrific situation as "Void God War". No wonder Sargeras would come in person and willingly become the driven blade of Annihilation.
This is no longer just a matter of one or two planets, our Vigilant is now carrying the future of the entire star sea.
However, you just said that Diakum left the inheritance of Sun God to Azeroth?"
"Yes, Sun King Kael'thas Sunstrider of Quel'Thalas also embarked on the path of Sun God under his leadership and inspiration."
Veilara said with some concern:
"We haven't contacted Quel'Thalas yet. Sun King returned to his hometown yesterday. I'm now worried that Kael'thas may also be affected.
If Diakum is summoned by Holy Light in this way, Kael'thas may also need help. After we awaken Diakum, this Sunwell Floating Isle will have to go to Quel'Thalas immediately."
"Hmm."
Velen nodded.
He recited the scripture Holy Light, but the old prophet was not at peace at this time.
He has believed in Holy Light all his life, and now he knows the secret of Origin of Holy Light, and heard that Sun God is being eroded by the void, and once the terrifying Eclipse Age arrives, the stars will be plunged into despair.
Perhaps, he can also contribute a little bit of insignificant power to this great cause Consecration?
A large-scale promotion of Lightforging is indeed a rare reward for believers, so after Marshal Lothar and Archbishop Faol issued the call, thousands of devout believers immediately gathered in Lordaeron where the war has not completely subsided.
Most are humans, but there are also some elves and a few dwarves.
In a corner where no one knew, Sir Uther also personally participated in this ceremony with several Dragonborn who had always believed in Holy Light devoutly.
Old Velen personally presided over it, allowing Holy Light of Diakum to emanate and transform through sacred rituals, and at the same time infuse it into the bodies of thousands of Priest, Paladin and Warrior.
Trial of Virtue, which exceeds the size of VanCleef, is turned on at the same time.
Because the Holy Light of Diakum is used, this Trial of Virtue must also follow the "rules" of Dick.
The spirits of all the sworn ones were dragged into the spiritual space of Diakum, just like the trials Maraad and Yrel once passed, where they must overcome the fear in their hearts.
And because Diakum has now mastered Void Profound Mystery like Sha Power, he can grasp the fear in the hearts of every sworn person very accurately.
It's enough for these guys to truly experience spiritual torture, where the light of faith blooms.
This is actually helpful for them to realize the release of the great power of Lightforging, and to eliminate their fear in Trial of Virtue is also helpful for these guys to maintain their sanity and not fall into long-term fanaticism and blind obedience.
As the host of Lightforging Ritual, old Velen also heard the call of Diakum at some point.
He did not refuse. In Holy Light, his spirit body left his body and he responded to the call of Dick.
But what surprised old Velen was that following the guidance of Vigilant, his spirit finally entered not the spiritual world of Diakum. On the contrary, wherever he went was a special space filled with light.
Velen Raise your head here, and you can see the golden glow surrounding the "sky" like water, and the silhouettes of one world after another are reflected in the constant Gleam waves.
That stream of light has no place to come or go, just like a "river of light" that flows through all things throughout life.
"Where is this?"
Velen looked at this endless "Golden Plains" in surprise. He couldn't see any trace of creation here, and it was very desolate. It was filled with warm light but not a single blade of grass grew.
"This is "High Heaven"."
Dick's voice sounded from behind the prophet, making Velen look at him in astonishment. Diakum spread his hands helplessly and said:
"I call it that. Actually I don't know its real name, but I guess this is the territory of Holy Light Force, the same as Sea of Darkness of void, Twisting Nether of Fel, Emerald Dream of life, and Shadowlands of death.
This is the domain of Holy Light, and we can't find any trace of other Forces here.
It has been sealed for countless years in the past.
But just when I returned to Material World from Sea of Darkness, my spirit was brought here.
"High Heaven" opened the door to me, but you also saw, Velen, this High Heavens is empty.
There is no Naaru, no faith, no An'she.
Full of Holy Light, but only Holy Light."
"Are you trapped here?"
Velen marveled at the place called "High Heaven" by Dick. He could indeed feel the warm divinity in direct contact with Holy Light Force here.
This is enough to prove that Diakum is not lying. This is indeed the territory that belongs exclusively to Holy Light.
"Yes, I'm trapped here. I think Holy Light is trying to protect me."
Vigilant sighed and said:
"He thought that the void wanted to harm me, so he insisted on bringing me back from the shadows to the light at this moment. But the problem is that the void only deprived me of my power, but did not deprive Light-Shadow Twinborn of the shadow part of the road.
Can you understand this difference?
My "official position" over there in the Void has been wiped out, but He still retains my "qualifications", and the Void still has expectations for me.
Maybe it's because He sees the potential of Shadow Chasing Swarm, or maybe it's because He feels that I'm still a worthy candidate when it comes to An'she. In short, I haven't reached the point where I have to say goodbye to the shadow.
But your help gave me a chance to leave here.
I'm just not sure if we leave now, will we be able to come back later?"
"Come back? What are you doing here?"
The old prophet felt that Diakum seemed to want to give him the entire job, and he said:
"There is nothing here. If An'she is not here, it means that the power of this Holy Light territory has been lost. If Naarus cannot reach it, it means that this place may have been abandoned?"
"No! I think otherwise."
Dick blinked his eyes and said:
"I think this is the "backhand" left by An'she. If the sun is destined to go out, he hopes to strip out his light and let Holy Light continue to shine on the sea of stars instead of the sun to counter the arrival of Eclipse Age.
Although I have no evidence, I feel that my guess is probably true.
After all, I have mastered the concept of "light"
If An'she was not willing, I would never be able to inherit this level of power concept. He gave this place to me, Velen, and Sun God gave me his Legacy.
In this case, I have the responsibility to build this "High Heaven" well, like this?"
He opened his arms and called Holy Light like he was embracing the sun. As Velen watched with wide eyes, a golden corona rose, and in the light, one golden angel after another emerged from it, beating on Light Wings.
A majestic and divine "High Heavens Gate" is also looming in the crown of light.
It can be seen that Dick really wants to shape this thing in "High Heaven", but he obviously can't do it now, and can only gather a dim shadow.
Those flying angels are not real, they are also some kind of illusion.
"Ahem"
This divine illusion lasted for a few minutes before Dispersion faded away. The pale-faced Diakum coughed and sighed:
"This thing needs to be shaped by Faith Power. My current Faith Power is still far from perfect. Perhaps after Light-Shadow Twinborn's teachings are accepted by more believers, I can build High Heaven bit by bit.
But think on the bright side, prophet.
Holy Light Walker finally have their own "happy hometown"."
Having said this, Dick smiled.
He stood in the phantom of Dispersion's High Heavens Gate, stretched out his hand to Velen, and invited:
"I alone can't light the sun, prophet, and Kael'thas can't either, but if you and other People of Light leaders are willing to help us, maybe it's possible to take the first step in this matter.
Velen, although all Eredar must do their best for the recovery of Argus, we individuals may also have greater pursuits, such as.
Come on!
Let us Qidian burn the sun and make Holy Light great again!"
