Chapter 844 12.Eternal Monarchy·Those who are generous will eventually have everything
"How do you feel? Does the Fel flushing strength still need to be adjusted at this time? I think you are in very good condition. Maybe you can try "Exploring the Limits"."
In the sea area of Broken Isles, in the cage under the ancient island of Watchers, Queen Azshara, dressed in casual clothes, maintained the posture of a "researcher", waving the exquisite Wand of Myriad Spirits to adjust the energy tide in the sealed cave, and said:
"Finding a "test subject" like you is a rare thing, but your queen doesn't have much time to spend here, so if you have any modification needs for this "simulation·Twisting Nether", please tell me quickly.
You were once a powerful Arcane Mage, so I think you can understand the meaning of time to you and me."
Facing her inquiry, Illidan Stormrage, who seemed to be "trapped" in a Fel storm, did not respond immediately.
Because he was also a Arcane Mage, Illidan knew very well that the Azshara in front of him said that he wanted to hear "advice" was not an excuse for humility.
The Queen is clearly embarking on a rather "bold" endeavor, and this is only the early stages of her overall planning.
She really needs "trial reports" from first-hand users like Illidan.
Brother Egg At this moment, everyone was shocked.
He can understand that the energy flow of the Fel storm he is currently in comes from "Energy Simulation" performed by Arcane Force by analyzing the truth of Fel. Azshara performs "Structural and Morphological Remodeling" on pure Arcane Energy and re-embodies it in the way of operation of Fel.
To put it simply, the Queen used Arcane Force to open "Fel Simulator", and Illidan was the first user of this thing.
Star Hunter stretched his limbs in the slightly weird Fel storm, patiently and carefully feeling the pressure coming from all around. He carefully analyzed the Fel flowing through his body, trying to distinguish the difference between these energies and the Fel in Twisting Nether.
But after a few minutes, Illidan gave up this attempt.
Except that there is no "Will of Destruction" in the energy that surrounds him, there is no difference between Twisting Nether and Fel.
"Very pure."
He finally came to his conclusion, saying:
"It's so pure that it doesn't look like a mimetic structure shaped by Arcane Energy, but more like a "filter". You lead the chaotic Fel out of Twisting Nether, but you use your own method to "filter" it.
The Will of Destruction that should have existed in the Fel tide was blocked from pure energy, making this group of Fel become "docile" while retaining its own destructive power.
I can still hear the roar of Will of Destruction, who is very dissatisfied with your "stealing" behavior, but what is shocking is that this "dissatisfaction" did not trigger a counterattack from Fel Force.
This is the first time I have seen Raging Will of Destruction willing to voluntarily give up some of the dominance of Fel's power.
It's hard to imagine, how on earth did you do it?"
"But that's not the kind of compliment I want to hear, not to mention your auspicious words are terrible, Illidan."
Queen Azshara is not satisfied.
She maintained her researcher attitude and said politely:
"If you, who are designated as one of the controllers of "Three Aspects of Destruction", can only express this kind of sentiment, then I will think that you are not qualified at all, nor do you have the wisdom to control the concept of power of destruction.
But your queen will be happy to answer your questions.
Your perception is correct, this is not a pure Energy Simulation, I just added some of my own "understanding" to this ball of Fel, so that it can be temporarily separated from Will of Destruction, so that it can be used by any Warlock, mage or Demon Hunter, and it will not be captured by the "desire" of the Force while it is taking effect."
At this point, the Queen laughed, waved the wand in her hand, and said loudly:
"Not just Fel, but all the Force including Arcane can be "filtered" for such a long time and introduced into this complex system.
I have completed all the theoretical construction and will enter a long and complicated practical stage. I need a lot of data to support my theory to convince World Mother to adopt my system in the future Azeroth.
I named it "Magic Web".
Well, considering that this inspiration came from the discussion that Diakum once had with me, you can also use Lord of Dawn's terminology and call it "Ley Line" for short, but it is not the same system as the Energy Nodes network that Blue Dragons guard on the planet."
"But what's the point?"
Illidan frowned and said:
"I am in a very special situation. I need to use a huge amount of Fel to temper Divine Vessel but cannot be exposed to Will of Destruction for a long time, so I need your "Ley Line miracle".
But for other Force practitioners, if they cannot feel the desire of the Force and cannot clarify their own path and morality from interacting with this desire, they will simply not be able to take that crucial step on the road to the Force.
IMHO, Queen Azshara.
Your work is amazing, but people with strength and talent will not use it at all. They will feel the guidance from the Force itself the moment they embark on the path of the Force, and then use more traditional methods to realize their power."
"Well, that's the comment I want to hear."
Azshara nodded with satisfaction, and then let out a teasing laugh, she said:
"However, this "work" of mine is not meant for those with strength and talent. Illidan, what you see is the "foundation of my path". This is a "gift" given by the generous queen to all living beings in the star sea.
During my stay in Shadowlands, Diakum once told me a short story to relieve my boredom.
He said that Eredar once visited a strange world during his ten thousand years of exile, where there was no supernatural power such as magic and the Force. It was an atheistic world where there were also wars and those ignorant and greedy creatures chose to kill each other with weapons similar to dwarf muskets.
There are also arms dealers like Goblin Cartel there, who will provide weapons to those chaotic people who want to harm others.
Your queen has no interest in that power-poor world, but Diakum's speech from the most dangerous arms dealer in that world has made me remember it to this day.
He said that every twelve people in the world have a musket, and his job and responsibility is to ensure that the other eleven people also have their own muskets to protect themselves from being harmed by people armed with sharp weapons."
The Queen laughed sarcastically, shook her head and said:
"This is of course a shameless excuse from an arms dealer, and it is a hypocritical shaping of values to make a pale argument for one's own blood-stained hands.
However, this theory is applicable in other scenarios as well.
Because of the existence of Supreme Star Soul, our Azeroth is already the most elegant and handsome world in this galaxy.
However, even in our world, there are only a handful of people who can feel the desire of the Force and embark on the path of the Force. The farmers of Westfall will never have any contact with the hands of even the lowest level mages throughout their lives. And when those predators who covet Supreme Star Soul arrive in our hometown again, those farmers will pick up the pitchforks in their hands and fight them to the death.
Protecting this world is the mission of all Child of Azeroth, and their queen will provide them with a tool and a means!
When they can master energy skills in a simpler way, when they can climb one obstacle after another without being affected by the will of the Force, when they can use real "weapons" instead of a ridiculous pitchfork to protect their farms, families and property, then their weak lives can have a truly precious resonance with the fate of this world.
Yes.
Your queen is the most shameless arms dealer, and is about to turn power from a noble thing in the palace into a daily consumable for everyone.
Your queen will use this to set off the "Great Power Revolution" of Material Galaxy sentient beings.
I will personally push the galaxy coveted by the six forces to the era of "Self-Armament", and I will give those who could only cry when facing demons, abyss and undead the hope of replacing weak tears with angry roars.
When the brilliance of Ley Line lights up from Azeroth and finally covers the entire Material Star Sea, your queen can also ascend the throne of Arcane True God.
At that time, the arrogant Titans will bow to me, and my royal power will be eternal."
This speech made Illidan couldn't help but move his fingers. He was shocked by Azshara's ambition, but then he felt relieved when he thought that this was Azshara.
It is doomed to be a fantasy for other people to do this kind of thing, but if it is Azshara. hiss, it is not impossible to succeed.
However, Illidan is not the queen's dog-licker. He will be immersed in the great blueprint woven by Azshara and cannot extricate himself. He quickly caught many problems in the queen's system.
He said:
"Not to mention your deep desire, you have now only completed the isolation of the will of the Force, allowing the major Forces to maintain "purity" in a low-intensity state, thereby helping beginners get started faster, but I can clearly feel that this isolation has limits.
The realm of demigods is its limit.
No!
The reason I won't be disturbed by Will of Destruction at this time is because you cast the spell yourself, but others don't have this treatment.
In other words, when they embark on the path of the Force according to your Ley Line system, and reach the legendary level at most, the filtering isolation will become invalid, and they will then be called by the Force.
Without the previous battle of wits, courage and self-clarity with the principles and will, it would be difficult for them to resist the sudden call of the Force.
How are you going to solve a problem like this?"
"I won't solve it because it's not a problem at all."
Azshara shook his head and said:
"I've said it before, Illidan, this system is not prepared for those individuals who are talented and capable. This is my gift to "mortals".
The purpose of Ley Line's existence is to allow mediocre individuals who are almost impossible to walk on the path of the Force to gain power, and to allow those souls who are unlikely to be spurred by great force to have the right to "be educated".
That's all.
Your queen is a ruler, not a nanny. It is already amazing to be able to bring them to the level of legend. I have already given them the "key", am I going to personally lead them to attack a higher realm?
No!
They have to choose their own path in the future. Their queen intends to learn from Diakum's endearing and open-minded attitude towards life. She has no intention of taking away their Overmind's power in their own lives, nor does she intend to help them plan everything.
If you have the ability, attack the demigods. If you don't have the ability, stay calm and stay at the level of a legend. Anyway, in most conflicts in the star sea, the legends have enough ability to protect them."
"No wonder Will of Destruction of Fel won't resist the "filtering" you set up."
Illidan It suddenly became clear.
He said:
"From the perspective of the Force, the emergence of Ley Line is not a bad thing. On the contrary, more efficient "grassroots education" can be used to provide more "Seeds of Legend" for the respective Forces. They have no reason to prevent you from laying out such a "Simplified Power" system.
Even in a sense, the appearance of Ley Line itself is one of the symbols of the arrival of the "prosperity era" of Xinghai. The prosperity of life is closely followed by the prosperity of power.
Me.
I rarely evaluate a person like this, but Queen Azshara, you are indeed an unparalleled genius."
"I just said, your auspicious words are terrible, Illidan."
Azshara waved his hands and said:
"Instead of praising, why not spend more time completing this "system test" for your queen? I need countless "experience users" like you to give me feedback on various defects to help me better complete the architectural modification of Ley Line.
Okay, now this strength can help you temper and shape Divine Vessel. You, this weird guy, carry the true nature of destruction. What you lack is just a container.
Remember to submit your trial report."
After saying that, the queen turned and left.
She has many things to do every day and doesn't have much time to chat with Illidan here.
But when the queen opened a portal leading to Dazar'alor, Illidan suddenly asked:
"But, at what cost?"
"Huh?"
Azshara turned back and looked at the ancestor Demon Hunter. Illidan repeated his question again:
"I mean, what's the cost of using Ley Line?
You have gifted such a simpler key to power to those mediocre lives. What price do they need to pay for it?
I guess their loyalty to you is the smallest price they have to pay.
After all, you are a king, and expecting loyalty is the underlying logic of this profession. You are also a Arcane god, and pursuing order is what Arcane Force requires of you.
So, do you plan to use Ley Line to shape loyalty, and then use this strength-based loyalty to promote the order of the stars you desire?"
"Ah, wonderful reasoning. If all I long for is to build a star sea empire, then I will indeed be satisfied with this. But you seem to underestimate your queen a little too much."
Azshara sneered:
"The "King" is just the most inconspicuous of your queen's many identities, and Pantheon has used their tragedy to vividly show me the tragedy that will result from forcibly shaping order.
Your queen has been through a lot, and I have learned that ruling with violence will lead to resistance.
Even if order itself is a beautiful thing, life is born from chaos. There is a contradiction between the two that is difficult to reconcile, so why does your queen waste time chasing the impossible?
What is "rule"?
The most perfect rule is not to tell my people that they must praise loyalty, but when my power is quietly transformed into something that every subject will actively pursue. Only then can this royal power exist forever.
So, facing your problem, I will tell you
There is no price!
There is no need to pay anything extra to use Ley Line!
Your generous Queen does not expect to receive more value from each of her subjects who strive for advancement.
I am already rich all over the world, so naturally I don't bother to covet the meager possessions of my subjects."
Illidan fell silent.
After a moment, he shook his head and said:
"They used Azshara's Ley Line to set foot on Path of Strength. They became stronger with the blessing of Azshara. They walked out of the cradle of Ley Line under the watchful eyes of Azshara. Then when they faced the bewilderment and coercion of the will of the Force for the first time, their first reaction was to seek help from the great Azshara.
The moment they open their mouths, they become loyal subjects of Azshara.
Wherever Ley Line goes, it is Azshara's territory.
You will eventually become Queen of the Star Sea in the future, and countless people will praise your generosity and greatness, but they do not realize that they themselves are the "price".
Countless choices converge into destiny, and countless fates will form the foundation of Throne of the True God.
But that's not your end, arrogant and greedy Azshara.
You will not allow yourself to be trapped in the realm of Arcane. Even if you will eventually reach the end of the road to the Force, you will still not be satisfied.
you desire.
Become a being alongside the Force!
I have also heard about the prophecy of First Ones, and I also know that our Star Soul mother will become "The Seventh".
Therefore, I guess, your ultimate desire is to use Ley Line, which will inevitably spread throughout the star sea, as a foundation, and then embark on an even more amazing path, and finally become."
"Shh!"
The Queen stretched out her hand, put it on her plump lips and made a silencing gesture, and said softly:
"Just keep those arrogant ideals that have not yet been realized in your heart. The most important thing is that our World Mother appreciates her ambitious daughter."
"Your Majesty!"
The moment Azshara walked through the portal and returned to the Dazar'alor palace, her loyal Vashj immediately stepped forward to report:
"The beacon you asked me to personally guard shook a few minutes ago. It seems that there is some strange life on the other side of the beacon that wants to establish contact with you, but is isolated by time and space in an unknown place where we cannot pry."
"Well, that's my lovely and loyal Pokopok!"
The queen raised her eyebrows and said happily:
"Finally, when the great plan was about to enter the next stage, my loyal pet sent me back the highest thing. The Ley Line heart of Xinghai, which only the magical Creation Platform can perfectly shape.
The subjects can begin to look forward and cheer, their future is in the hands of the generous Queen!"
