Is it a problem? -Additional update[75]
(Additional update for brother "Gervis" [2/5])
When the super-large Lightforging Ritual of thousands of people ended, the Holy Light wrapped around Diakum was finally consumed to the point where the "balance of light and shadow" could be maintained.
So he opened his eyes.
What caught his eyes were Neri and Twins who rushed towards him crying. Three girls held his hands, and one held him in her arms, making Vigilant a little embarrassed.
Didn't we agree not to make the relationship public?
There are so many people here, you three should be more sensible. And you, Lothar! What are you doing there holding your wife's hand and smiling like a kind aunt?
On the contrary, Tiangang has returned!
"Can you please stop doing such dangerous things next time?"
Neri lamented:
"Fortunately, I am in Azeroth. I can find Lesser God like Nightsworn to help. If we were in Draenor, we could only watch your light go out."
"Not so"
Dick just wanted to explain,
If this happened to Draenor, it would be easier to just call Argus Lord and drive "Invincible Gundam", which has not yet been purified but can actually be tested, to break into Sea of Darkness to save people.
That process is definitely much easier and simpler than the bound Nightsworn humming and running to help.
But when he saw the tears in the corners of Neri's eyes, and then looked at Twins who was also looking at him with reproachful eyes, Dick didn't explain the necessity of doing this rationally, but just nodded.
After all, there is nothing meaningful in this world that cannot be expressed by just nodding.
He raised his head and looked at the old Velen beside him who was looking deep in thought. The prophet made eye contact with him, but still had not made a decision.
This is normal.
What the old Velen holds in his heart is all Eredar. His status as a spiritual leader does not allow him to make such private decisions at will that will definitely seriously interfere with his destiny.
Dick didn't urge him, he just used his eyes to indicate to the old prophet that he could think carefully before telling him his decision.
"Sorry to trouble you, everyone."
Vigilant sat by the bed, took back the five Archangels, and let the majestic and divine Golden Little Angel turn into Golden Little Angel who could only blow rainbow farts, and then said to the others:
"Thank you for everything you have done for me."
"We should say this, Vigilant."
Lothar shook his head and said sincerely:
"We once didn't understand what kind of struggle you were fighting, and we even complained in our hearts that you were obviously powerful but unwilling to intervene too much in the mortal world. But after witnessing Sea of Darkness's "God War" with our own eyes, we already know the pressure you are under.
That is a great achievement that we mere mortals cannot imagine.
In fact, I should apologize to you now. Human Empire's internal affairs have delayed too much of your precious energy. Thank you for everything you have done for us.
Your statue will forever stand in every church in the empire."
Diakum I wanted to decline such a profound and exaggerated thank you.
But then he thought about it, and there was a "Supreme Sky Construction Project" waiting for major infrastructure behind him. If every building in the Holy Light Territory needs to be built by himself with the power of faith, then he really needs to expand the source of his faith.
In the past, the most he wanted for this thing was to use the Divine Descent technique, but it is different now. Now he wants Faith Power, which is really useful.
So, he nodded, acquiesced to this treatment, and asked again:
"Lordaeron has been captured. When are you going to hold a coronation ceremony to announce the founding of the "Enemy Breaker" empire? Well, do you really not consider changing the name?"
Lothar was embarrassed, he curled his lips and said:
"There are indeed many people who are not satisfied with this name. I thought about it. We humans can call ourselves "Enemy Breaker" in the future. The official country name may be "Strom'kar Empire". As for the coronation date,"
The marshal hesitated and said:
"Northern Borderlands has not been recovered yet. In fact, we only captured Tirisfal Glades in the entire Lordaron Kingdom. The conflict in the Stratholme area has not ended yet. I plan to do this after Northern Borderlands and even Kul Tiras are completely liberated.
These things will take at least several months."
"There is really no rush. Right now, just where to place the capital is a big problem."
Archbishop Faol sighed and said:
"Perhaps we need to restart Stromgarde as the capital of the empire, which is the One a location that can be accepted by all factions, but Stromgarde's Fel pollution is a big problem, and the reconstruction of its urban areas cannot be completed in just a few years.
Therefore, Marshal Lothar can only temporarily handle government affairs at Lordaeron. The good news is that Stonemasons' Brotherhood does have enough time to repair Stromgarde more carefully."
"Given the current situation of mankind, Marshal Lothar will not be able to rest for the next ten years. He is destined to bear unimaginable pressure."
Velen twirled his beard and said:
"But fortunately Holy Light blessed him. Lightforged's abundant energy ensured that Marshal Lothar would not become sick from overwork. However, based on Eredar's experience in Second Co-Governance Era, an efficient administrative team can effectively help you reduce stress."
"Yes, this is a top priority, thank you for the reminder."
Lothar nodded and said to Velen:
"It just so happens that you are here today. Archbishop Faol and I have discussed that Holy Light faith is undoubtedly the future state religion of the empire, so we need to cultivate a large number of outstanding Priest to fill various parishes in the empire.
Eredar's experience tells us that faith is the best glue for an empire, so we hope to send some apprentices and officials to Eredar's city to receive training and education.
I believe that the ancient Argus wisdom and the extremely efficient Executive Officer administrative system that you have used and summarized over the past 20,000 years will definitely help Human Empire get on the right track quickly."
"This is a good thing."
The old prophet nodded and said:
"We are happy to help. Archbishop Nali is our diplomatic ambassador in Azeroth. She can take charge of and contact these matters. As for the believers, just send them directly to the Arcane Academy's Divinity School on this floating island.
Diakum teaches them personally, so that the young people no longer have to worry about traveling and traveling."
"Everyone, we can discuss these political matters later. Sunwell Floating Isle needs to set off."
Ms. Vilara spoke at the right time and said:
"Just now, we got in touch with the Quel'Thalas palace. As expected, His Majesty Kael'thas was also troubled by some strange visions. Moreover, Sunwell's return to Quel'Thalas will help adjust the magic environment there which is rapidly becoming thinner.
So, we have to leave."
"Please bring the wounded."
Lothar said seriously:
"The environment in the Tirisfal area is very unstable right now. We have transferred some lightly injured people to "Ashen Holy Blade Monastery" in Duke Mograine, but those seriously injured people cannot stay here.
I hope to place them in Quel'Thalas, which is more stable, and Commodore Daenerys will be responsible for taking care of them. By the way, I will send Sun King the credentials of "Strom'kar Empire"."
"As it should be."
Dick nodded and said:
"I won't interfere with your continued command here, Lothar, but if necessary, please remember to notify me in time. Also, Archbishop Faol"
"Huh?"
The somewhat tired old Fao raised his head and heard Diakum say to him seriously:
"Please personally coordinate Cenarius Order's actions in the empire, as well as the faith affairs of the Moon Goddess church. I cannot tell you too many secrets of the gods, but you and the believers in the empire must remember that Moon Goddess's followers of faith and life are Holy Light Follower's strongest allies.
We can trust them at any time!
"Sun and Moon Shining Together" symbolizes the truth of the sea of stars, and is also the direction we have been working towards.
If we have time in the future, we can seriously discuss the faith symbols of Holy Light and the sun. This will be a very important faith issue."
Archbishop Faol was stunned for a moment.
Then he remembered the visions that appeared in the previous battle of Lordaeron, especially the golden "miracle" of Sunflare hanging high in the sky that everyone had seen with his own eyes. Combined with what Diakum the Saint emphasized, it was impossible for him as a believer not to think too much.
But this meeting was unable to provide some doctrinal insights, so I could only nod and agree.
An hour later, Sunwell Floating Isle, who had accepted the seriously injured people of all races, entered the teleportation spell. In the golden sunshine Gleam, the high-hanging floating island of the city disappeared into the Tirisfal Glades sky in the beating Arc Light.
Prince Derek on the ground was holding a waist knife and waving his hands with a sad look on his face.
On that island, his sister was going to start her destined long academic career as a student of "Arcane Academy". Next to Derek, Daelin, dressed in "pirate outfit", was drunk and waving.
Although he refused to admit that the "softie" next to him was his eldest son, he still loved the cute, well-behaved and promising Jaina very much.
As expected of me!
Look how talented that child is. Five or six demigods are teaching her together. She will definitely be very successful in the future.
"I really have a wife in Stormwind?"
The old sailor chewed the orange, put his arm around Derek's shoulder, and said in a salty tone like "How are you two?"
"Describe it to me. Is my wife beautiful?"
"That's my mother! Please show some respect!"
Derek glared at the old sailor beside him, but then he thought that this guy was his "father", at least half of his father, and the prince suddenly felt helpless.
He reached out his hand to cover his eyes rather melancholy, sighed and said:
"I don't know if your mother is beautiful in your eyes, but not long ago, you were discussing having a fourth child, so I guess she probably has true love.
Oh, by the way, speaking of which, you still have a romantic debt with Quel'Thalas.
Do you remember?
You have an elf lover and a mixed daughter Blood Elf. Theoretically speaking, Fina is the eldest daughter in the family."
"Elven lover? And you gave me a daughter?"
The old sailor's eyes widened, and then his face showed visible pride and pride. He threw the orange in his hand and said loudly with his hands on his hips:
"Ha, I'm so awesome, oh, that's bad! Why didn't you tell me about the Elf Lover earlier? If you had known earlier, you would have followed that island to Quel'Thalas. Look, now it's such a chaotic situation that it won't be possible for a while.
Forget it.
I'll go to Stormwind in a few days to see my wife."
"What about Kul Tiras? When do you plan to go back to deal with Kul Tiras's matter?"
Derek stared at his unreliable but very capable father.
He even felt that because the "King" part was separated, the purer "Admiral" Daelin was able to play better than before, and his Warrior talent was further explored.
Ms. Vilara said this was normal, but Derek thought this was abnormal.
"Kul Tiras ah."
Faced with Derek's inquiry, old sailor Daelin hesitated and said:
"I don't like that place, although I always hear it, but can you understand? Derek, I don't want to go there, even if I am really "part" of your dad, I also have my own personality and preferences.
So, why not Kul Tiras just leave it to you to handle it?
I continue to take my ship and my crew on the Endless Sea to live the good life that old sea dogs should live?"
"You ride on the horse"
Derek is really angry.
He grabbed the old sailor by the collar and growled at him:
"You are the king of Kul Tiras! How could you give up your duty to the country and be content with being a privateer captain? And Tandred! Did you know that your youngest son was taken away by the ancient gods?"
"I know, so I will help you get that child back."
Sailor Daelin shrugged his shoulders indifferently and said:
"This is all I can do for you, I can even serve as a battle captain in your fleet, but please understand, child, the life I am living now is the life I should live.
King or whatever, leave me alone!
If you want to be the king, you can go by yourself, by the way! Lothar established the empire, and Kul Tiras is the overseas province of the empire.
You can no longer be a king, the best you can do is become a governor-general and a duke."
The father and son just looked at each other. After a moment, a cold voice sounded next to them:
"Daelin and Derek, have you had enough trouble? If you still plan to rescue Tandred, then maybe we should enter the normal work process now."
"Huh?"
The father and son turned around at the same time and saw the two figures walking out of the deep shadows beside them.
The leader is a hooded male Kaldorei, followed by a female Sin'dorei. General Staghelm, who has just returned from the battlefield of gods, looks a little tired.
He said hoarsely:
"The void spying and intelligence collection on Kul Tiras will be taken over by Shadewalker. We need two people to provide ships and capable manpower. It is best for one of you to follow us for a long time."
"I'll do it."
Derek took the initiative and said:
"I swore to my sister that I would rescue my brother, and my First Fleet would be handed over to my father's command. He is Eastern Continent and even the most outstanding naval commander in the world."
"Really?"
General Staghelm looked up and down at the old sailor Daelin who looked very awkward and was still wearing a "pirate outfit" and said:
"I highly doubt it, but let's get to work."
"The recovery speed of the Holy Power is too fast. If it continues like this, before the end of the night, I will fall into a state of imbalance of light and shadow again."
In the provost's office belonging to the Arcane Academy Divinity School on Sunwell Floating Isle, Diakum frowned and checked his situation. Character Card clearly stated "Void Authority has returned to zero!" which represents the seriousness of the problem.
Power, this is a very mysterious concept of power.
It is very complicated, but it does not represent power, but a collective name for all the enhancements, awards, and reputations that Force Walkers obtain from their respective Forces in addition to their strength.
It can be simply understood as "authority" in the Force system.
For example, Diakum is clearly the "leader of People of Light" in Holy Light Force. This exaggerated title gives him a very high reputation among all Holy Light forces.
Even in a strange world that they have never arrived before, as long as Holy Light Follower is there, they will respect and admire Diakum the moment they see him.
This is the most direct demonstration of the power of the Force.
The same goes for Path of the Void. Although the power of Diakum in Sea of Darkness is not exaggerated, it is still among the highest levels of power that a demigod can obtain. This allows him to enter Sea of Darkness at will and recruit or repel Void Creature who do not belong to his faction.
At present, the death of seven Void Demigods due to "betrayal" has directly caused Diakum's reputation in the void to become "hatred".
Whether you can get in Sea of Darkness or not is secondary.
The void no longer favors him and even affects the acquisition speed of Void Entropy. Coupled with Holy Light's summons to him here, the balance of Dick and Light-Shadow Twinborn is already in jeopardy.
If this continues, he will deviate from the balance of the two forces to the side of "Pure Light Oath".
"Bang"
Just as Diakum was thinking, the door of the office opened and Saloras walked in holding Blade of the Black Empire. She said to Diakum:
"Xal'atath is in this weapon right now. Do you want to take a moment to interrogate her?"
Vigilant's eyes fell on the dagger with a cold aura.
He narrowed his eyes and made a decision after hesitating for a moment.
He took the dagger and said:
"Maybe we can take a more direct approach than interrogation. If Void insists on blocking my channel to obtain Entropic Energy, then there is only the last way left. Maybe "Void Herald" will always be attracted to each other."
"Are you going to devour her?"
Saloras blinked and said:
"With the characteristics of Devourer of Worlds, you can acquire a large number of Entropic Energy at once by swallowing other Void Creature?
This does sound like a solution, but I guess the fact that you have been restraining this method before means that it must have hidden dangers, right?"
"Yes, I am not Void Creature as pure as Dymus. I must consider the issue of "compatibility" when devouring other energies."
Vigilant explained while entering Voidform:
"I will carefully choose each object to devour, and I must ensure that their power will not interfere with my control of the shadows. Now that I have a clear concept of power, I can no longer "eat randomly".
I don't have a good appetite that can "digest everything" like Dymus.
If you are not pure enough, you will not reach the end.
But you said it wrong, Saloras.
I will not "eat" Xal'atath, she is my "sibling", she was born in An'she and I must rekindle Consecration her power for Sun God. In fact, I have been thinking about a topic."
He raised his head and said:
"Do you think it is possible for Naaru who have completely turned into darkness and those Naaru who have degenerated into Void Entropy Demon to return to the light?"
"Probably, no?"
Saloras frowned and said:
"Lady Kara once fell into darkness. It said personally that once it crosses the dark line of depravity, it will fall into darkness forever, with no possibility of returning to the light.
That is the personal description of the person involved."
"But at that time we didn't know the truth about Eclipse."
Dick said:
"So, I actually have my own understanding of the answer to this question, so."
He raised Blade of the Black Empire in front of his eyes. Amidst the screams of Xal'atath, the gluttonous devouring of Devourer of Worlds started, and he sucked in the darkness Entropic Energy that belonged to Xal'atath.
In the satisfied whimper of eating, he said in Shath'yar:
"Let's do an "experiment", Lightforging Xal'atath. It sounds very challenging."
