It can only be Uncle Hogger!
Illidan When he woke up again, his mind was still haunted by quite bizarre visions.
That was everything he perceived from the outside when he was trying his best to suppress "self-improvement" and fight against the true nature of destruction. In a trance, he "saw" his brother appearing in that terrible killing place, shouting something to himself, with tears in his eyes.
Wow, what a weak character.
How will such a weak Archdruid leader lead his people in the future?
But then, Illidan seemed to "see" Tyrande again, Tyrande in the form of Nightsworn. Wrath of Elune exploded with all its strength, just like the legendary black moon, with a scorching heat that ripped through the mind mixed with the coldness that penetrated the bones.
She was also shouting something to herself, but the infusion of Fel's will prevented her from waking up at all. She vaguely remembered that she seemed to have launched an attack on them, but was then suppressed by the power of Moon Goddess from the outside. Then, a glow filled with golden Dawn erupted from Malfurion's body, instantly washing away all entities perceived by Brother Egg.
That was also the last scene he perceived before falling into coma.
Illidan can be sure that it is definitely Diakum and this Lord of Dawn came to Twisting Nether in person. Only the most direct confrontation between the two forces can trigger such a terrifying energy tide in his memory.
He tried to turn over and sit up, but as soon as he stood up, he screamed in pain.
Star Hunter's whole body felt as if it had been run over by a giant, every bone was roaring with "strike", and his internal organs were undoubtedly severely damaged, and even his strong and powerful heartbeat became erratic.
More importantly, Illidan could feel that his body was "empty". The "inner demon" that was extremely important to Demon Hunter was gone.
It must have been purified, which caused him to fall into a long-term weakness.
The inner demon is the source of Demon Hunter's power. As half-demons, they need to use the inner demon to store, mobilize and resist Fel's summons. Without the inner demon, it means that Demon Hunter's various methods are sealed.
Moreover, Illidan was lying on the bed, touching the painful parts of his body with his fingers, and easily found that his body surface was engraved with Dawn spells like "seals". Those Gleam glowing holy patterns formed a "yoke" on his body, tightly trapping his connection with the true nature of destruction.
This must be the work of Vigilant.
It is said that he also used similar methods in the final battle with Sargeras, forcibly cutting off the connection between Dark Titan and Twisting Nether in order to defeat him.
This secret of "stripping off the force" is Diakum's unique technique. At least Illidan has never heard of any other true gods having this method of isolating contact with the force.
After figuring out his current situation, Star Hunter finally figured out what happened during his coma.
His brother and Tyrande brought him back from the edge of losing control, but they could only save him but could not "cure" him. Considering that the rampant concept of destruction at that time had already pushed Illidan to start his divine ascension, Malfurion and Tyrande called out Vigilant, who had been hiding in them and advancing invisibly.
Diakum used very rough means to purify his inner demon as the "Fel sensing organ", thus forcibly interrupting Illidan's "erroneous promotion", and then used Holy Light Walker's method to temporarily isolate himself from Fel's sensing to prevent himself from being captured by Fel's power concept again.
No wonder I am so weak right now
I am probably the first demon in history who has been personally purified by Light Butcher but has not yet fallen. Hiss, he has accidentally lit up another "mythical achievement".
"Are you awake? You recovered pretty quickly."
A voice that made Illidan frown and subconsciously defend himself appeared in the ears of Star Hunter, who was thinking about countermeasures, and made him say in a dumb voice:
"Xe'ra?"
"Yes, it's me."
Mother of Light shrank her body, rotated her divine Holy Water crystal and floated to Illidan's bedside. She explained:
"Don't worry about the pressure you feel at this time. As a half-demon staying in High Heaven, it is normal to feel uncomfortable. Please rest assured that Lord of Dawn will send you back to Mortal realm when you recover to the point where you can move freely.
The reason why you are brought here is because your previous situation was too complicated.
If Lord of Dawn hadn't forcibly opened the dimensional rift from Twisting Nether to High Heaven at the critical moment, allowing the door of High Heavens to open in the Devil's Land, I'm afraid you were already out of control and would have been completely captured by Sargeras.
A Star Hunter serving God of Destruction is really scary to think about."
She briefly explained what happened before, and then noticed Illidan's "resistance", which made Mother of Light say regretful Holy Song, and then explained:
"Don't worry, I no longer regard you as "Light-Dark Child", and I have long given up on my evil plan to shape you into "Savior".
If those previous contacts made you feel uncomfortable because of my blindness and fanaticism at that time, then I sincerely apologize to you, Star Hunter. At that time, you and I were trapped in the same heavy despair. Fortunately, when I witnessed the arrival of the dawn, all the troubles and tortures were relieved by Holy Light as if I were relieved."
Illidan kept a straight face and said nothing.
The trouble that "Xe'ra" once caused him can't be explained in just one or two sentences. Star Hunter rarely has nightmares, but the nightmares he had in the past ten thousand years were almost all related to Xe'ra.
Illidan will dream that she is being restrained by Holy Light in a strange place, and Xe'ra, this crazy woman, will use a "martyr" attitude to drain all her power away. He passed it on to himself, and even forcibly transferred himself from Fel to Holy Light, turning himself from a good Demon Hunter into a "Holy Light hunter".
Hiss.
Those nightmares are so real that Illidan is still a little wary when facing Xe'ra.
But Mother of Light now has a clear conscience.
She went on to explain:
"Lord of Dawn Purify your inner demon, because it has been completely infected by the true nature of destruction you are responsible for. It must be purified to interrupt your "promotion" that should not be carried out at this time.
Your foundation is far from perfect. A defective Divine Vessel will not only limit your potential exchange, but also prevent you from having any advantage when facing the Avengers and Destroyers in the future. Therefore, it purifies your inner demons and seals your body.
If you don't take the initiative to step into Twisting Nether, Will of Destruction will not be able to achieve a deeper symbiosis with you.
However, this seal is not permanent.
You will be very busy next, and you will have to do your best to hammer your container to the point where it can perfectly withstand the concept of power of destruction, so as to complete your glorious promotion and make you Fel Lord who can be consistent with the Avengers and Destroyers.
Of course, it's just the same person.
Lord of Dawn believes that you should not Recklessness challenge either of them, as there is a huge gap between you and them in terms of strength."
Illidan was silent for a moment, then nodded and said:
"Express my most sincere gratitude to Lord of Dawn. I know very well that without his help, there would no longer be a conscious will named "Illidan" at this time.
But I still have questions.
How can I forge my Divine Vessel if I can't get to Twisting Nether, or even cut off from Fel Force?"
"The answer lies in your hometown, in Azeroth."
Xe'ra said lightly:
"When you get back there, you will naturally know how to complete the rest of your journey. As for your gratitude, I don't need to convey it to you, because Lord of Dawn is now in High Heaven.
He was supposed to be here waiting for you to wake up and chatting with you about daily life, but unfortunately, just now, there was an emergency that he had to go to deal with in person."
"Huh?"
Illidan stood up with difficulty, frowned and said:
"Is there something that requires his personal intervention? Could it be that some weird evil god has appeared in the Material Star Sea? Or is there another problem with the sun in a certain star field?"
"Well, it's not that serious."
Mother of Light said in a strange tone:
"Perhaps you should go and see for yourself, right in front of the High Heaven gate, in the Spirit Hall under the Faith Stairway. Speaking of which, the people who caused the problem are also people from your hometown."
"Oh?"
Illidan Now I am interested.
He does not plan to stay in High Heaven for too long. On the one hand, as Xe'ra said, it is very uncomfortable for him to be a half-demon in Holy Light Holy Land. The light and heat that can purify him at any time is peeking and examining him. This feeling like a gleam on the back makes Star Hunter quite insecure.
On the other hand, Illidan knew that his brother and Tyrande would definitely be worried about him.
The two of them actually took the risk to go deep into Twisting Nether for their own sake, so I had to give them a reassuring response to let them know that they were out of danger.
More importantly, if you need to complete the forging of the Fel container before the seals on your body expire, then you shouldn't waste time.
He was seriously injured and every bone was screaming, but so what?
Since you're not dead, you have to keep moving forward.
And he was really curious as to which big boss in his hometown could cause something in High Heaven that Diakum, Lord of Dawn, had to personally handle.
Could it be that something happened to Lothar suddenly, causing his soul to ascend to High Heaven?
Hiss.
Isn't that the case?
With the identity and status of Lothar, he has come to High Heaven, which must mean that some damn world-destroying event has happened in Azeroth, but he has never heard that there is another turmoil in his hometown that has been calm and is undergoing infrastructure construction.
With such doubts, Star Hunter put on a robe and hood to cover his whereabouts. Under the guidance of angels, he crossed the sacred and exaggerated castle and pavilion of High Heaven, walked through the very fashionable cloud walkway, and arrived at the gate of High Heaven amidst the sound of holy bells and the prayers of the Holy Spirits echoing everywhere.
It is no exaggeration to say that even with Illidan's determined mind, he felt a strange desire to "convert" after completing this journey.
Fortunately, he is blind and can only perceive but cannot see the sacred scenery of High Heaven. However, along the way, the chanting and sermons of the saints who have crossed over Faith Stairway and become the Holy Spirit in heaven, walking everywhere like pilgrims, still opened Illidan's eyes.
He was never a believer.
But he can be sure that this place is definitely the place that all believers in Material Galaxy long to reach.
High Heaven is very pure. There is no temptation of power, no blessing of power, and no disputes of desire. The souls who can reach here through Faith Stairway only have piety in their faith and a unique understanding of Holy Light.
The hundreds of thousands of Holy Spirits in High Heavens are all enthusiastic people, and they are happy to offer their own salvation and relief to the suffering of Xinghai.
How to say?
Maybe I can't say I like it, but this is definitely not a place that people dislike. Unfortunately, not all souls are qualified to arrive here after death.
As Lord of Dawn said, setting foot on Faith Stairway is a reward for good intentions and good deeds. Promotion to heaven has never been a blessing and power that should be pursued.
This symbolizes the best in the world, just like the Maw symbolizes the best in the world.
Heaven and hell form the two ends of the criterion of good and evil, so that the simplest and purest justice and evil can be divided and reflected, which is an important foundation for the existence of order.
If good and evil cannot be distinguished clearly, it is naturally impossible to determine the boundary between order and chaos. If the boundary is not clear enough, a gray area that can be black or white will inevitably appear, and that is the beginning of the march of chaos.
Illidan felt that his trip to High Heaven was not in vain. He really felt the morality that Diakum poured into this High Heavens. This made him He understood how Vigilant controlled the inheritance of Sun God that he once had, and it also gave Illidan, who was shouldering the same pressure, an inexplicable understanding.
However, when he arrived under the Faith Stairway, the magnificent Spirit Hall that was personally shaped by the Holy Spirits and based on faith for the souls who were waiting to climb the long stairs, he was astonished to hear Gnoll Hogger's plausibly arguing the Bible.
That was Hogger and another Holy Spirit "lecturing" in public. The two were engaged in a rigorous and cumbersome debate around the outrageous issue of "whether High Heaven should have a communication room." The group of Holy Spirits who regarded climbing Faith Stairway as their lifelong ideal were divided into two groups, each supporting different views.
Lord of Dawn Diakum was sitting at the height of the Spirit Hall, listening attentively to the debate between the two.
The "big thing" that the co-author asked you to personally handle is to decide whether to convert Hogger, the self-proclaimed "High Heaven concierge," into a regular official, right?
Hiss, your Lord of Dawn life is a bit too busy every day, right?
Illidan was complaining crazily in his heart, but when he came closer, Diakum raised his hand to signal him to stop talking for the time being, waiting for the end of Hogger's famous scene of "tongue-in-cheek".
This is the most basic respect for Bible commentators.
"This may seem outrageous to you. After all, whether Hogger can have a formal professional title in High Heaven is just a matter of my words. But you have to understand, Illidan, that there are not only humanoid beings like you and me in this galaxy, there are also many animal-shaped intelligent beings like Hogger.
The life forms in the star sea are all-encompassing, and walking the path of faith is their common right.
Therefore, whether Hogger can convince its the Oppressors today is directly related to whether High Heaven will open the road to promotion to those weird believers in the future."
Diakum explained to Illidan in spiritual words:
"Whether it is "all creatures in the world have their own roots and cannot be messed with" or "flowers, birds, fish and insects all have spirituality, and there is no distinction between religion and religion", these two paths are directly related to the style of High Heaven and even Material Galaxy's missionary work in the following years.
The debate at hand is more important than you think.
And this guy Hogger may not realize that his achievements in speaking out today are enough for him to be canonized after his death. Of course, I didn't expect that this guy would be so talkative. You see, the Holy Spirits from all over the galaxy were speechless by his defense.
Hiss, it seems that being at the High Heaven level and working crazily with the Xinghai Holy Spirits every day is really conducive to the cultivation of eloquence."
"But if I remember correctly, Hogger is God Chosen of Black Wolf God, right?"
Illidan replied with a strange tone in spiritual language:
"How dare you let this "infidel" go to heaven?"
"Do you know how many races Black Wolf God's faith in the star sea includes?"
Diakum asked rhetorically:
"If promoting a Hogger can make so many living beings more clearly understand the "boundary of good and evil", then what's wrong with having an eloquent Gnoll Holy Spirit in my High Heaven?
They can create their own sacred grassland outside the sacred palace and castle, and as Lycantos guides, they can run and hunt to their heart's content on that endless grassland.
No one has ever stipulated that there can only be one kind of heaven.
High Heaven is the concept of "goodness", Illidan, it is not restricted or limited to some rigid formulas and requirements.
I should not and cannot dictate the definition of goodness and beauty in everyone's mind, and I certainly should not restrict their efforts to do good deeds due to their desire for heaven.
To put it more bluntly, I only care if they do good deeds and stay away from bad intentions throughout their lives.
As for who the good people believe in.
I don't care."
"Oh my God, I personally heard a Force True God spreading heretical ideas to me. Holy Light Walkers could never imagine that their Lord himself is an "atheist"."
Illidan said in an exaggerated tone:
"But you can't guarantee that every living being in High Heaven has the same idea as you. One day, the beliefs of so many believers will cause disputes and confrontations here. At that time, heaven will not be there."
"Then let it fall."
Diakum laughed and said:
"There will always be the next person to rebuild heaven among the ruins, as long as the desire of living beings for "goodness" is still there, and as long as there are still people who will approach everything to protect those beautiful things.
You are not here to listen to Hogger's Bible debate, so I have to say goodbye to you in advance. I think their discussion is very interesting, so after listening to this debate of faith here, I will send someone to take you back to Azeroth. Don't waste time after you go back, go find Queen Azshara.
She will help you complete the next forging of your container.
Just simulate Fel Force
It has not exceeded the power limit of Arcane Path.
I wish you good luck, Star Hunter, there may be a place for you in this High Heaven."
