"Thank you Xu Yu for the 500 reward, and thank you eva_xy for the 500 reward!"
" The Ashbringer has pushed the offensive power of the Holy Light to its limit. Artifacts possess a spirit; its soul was created by Fenna, and only Fenna can unleash its full potential." Uther looked at Highlord Mograine, his voice authoritative yet tinged with apology. " Alexandros, I'm sorry."
"Perhaps, he was never meant to belong to me." Highlord Mograine shook his head.
Although reluctant and unwilling, he was ultimately a devout Paladin, and the principles of Paladin made it impossible for him to think of anything sordid. Moreover, Uther spoke.
Uther's status was too transcendent. Although he didn't usually concern himself with the day-to-day affairs of the Order of the Silver Hand, when he spoke, everyone had to obey.
There have long been factional disputes within the Order of the Silver Hand, but as long as Uther is still around, these disputes can only be kept within a controllable range. This is due to Uther's immense power; he is the spiritual leader of the Order of the Silver Hand!
More importantly, the die is cast. Are we really going to kill Fenna? Even Uther wouldn't dare do that, let alone him!
If he really did that, he would have no chance of gaining the Ashbringer's approval, and even the Holy Light would abandon him. He would no longer be a Paladin!
"Artifacts possess a spirit. The Ashbringer represents the offensive nature of Holy Light, and it should acknowledge the power of the Holy Light to some extent, especially since both Highlord have also pushed its offensive capabilities to the extreme," Jiang Jie suddenly said. "Perhaps, letting the two Highlord experience its power might... be helpful to you?"
Jiang Jie didn't say that casually.
In fact, in the original history, before obtaining Ashbringer, Highlord Mograine was just an ordinary Grand Knight. After obtaining it, he became the second Paladin to possess a Paladin. The title " Ashbringer " is on par with " Silver Hand "!
In other words, Mograine only became Legendary after obtaining Ashbringer!
Similarly, Highlord Tirion Fordring, though always powerful, also purified the " Corrupted Ashbringer " with the help of three thousand heroes from Light's Hope Chapel before becoming Legendary Paladin and the new " Ashbringer ".
In other words, Ashbringer can help a Grand Knight advance to Legendary!
Of course, not every Grand Knight can do it. But at least, two Highlord should be able to.
Because they are a perfect match for Ashbringer, and they themselves are already close to reaching the Legendary rank!
Jiang Jie made this suggestion for two reasons. First, he wanted Fenna to bestow favors upon the two Highlord to win them over, which would benefit her.
Furthermore, the threat posed by Tichondrius and Arthas is too great. To protect Lordaeron, we must possess greater power. If we can create two Legendary Paladin, then even if Arthas attacks now, we won't have to worry too much.
"We can give it a try." Uther nodded. No one understood the Holy Light better than him; if he believed it was possible, then it truly was.
Seeing that Jiang Jie had spoken, Uther also expressed his support. In addition, he already felt somewhat guilty towards Highlord Mograine. Fenna held Ashbringer in both hands and handed it to Mograine.
Mograine did not refuse. He picked up Ashbringer with one hand, felt the Holy Light energy that resonated perfectly with him, and closed his eyes.
He felt an even more surging Holy Light energy and saw another world, a world belonging to Legendary.
The world was open to him, but there was still a threshold separating him. It was as if he had entered a magnificent villa, but only had the right to use it, not the right to own it.
Holding Ashbringer, he is Legendary;
Without Ashbringer, he is no Legendary.
He saw endless Holy Light, and he also saw the shadows deep within his heart.
Holy Light and shadow are a pair; they cannot exist in isolation. Even Ashbringer was originally a Shadow Crystal, wasn't he?
At that moment, Highlord Mograine had a real urge to possess Ashbringer, but he ultimately restrained himself, shook his head, and handed Ashbringer to Tirion Fordring.
A few minutes later, Tirion Fordring also shook his head.
He felt the same way; after all, they weren't true Legendary. Ashbringer was indeed a perfect match for them, but he didn't acknowledge them, because Ashbringer could only have one master, and that master was Fenna.
"I'm sorry," Fenna said softly.
"No need to apologize, we should thank you. You've at least brought us a little closer to that goal. I think it won't be long before Alexandros and I become Legendary." Tirion glanced at Highlord Mograine, noticing his obviously grim expression, and quickly changed the subject. "We owe you all this time, otherwise we would all be finished!"
"The mages of Ironforge teleported me to Lordaeron, where I happened to meet Professor Uther and Jaina." Fenna looked at Uther: "Then Jaina teleported Professor Uther and me to Chillwind Camp. We learned from High Priest Meldor that you had launched a full-scale attack on Andorhal, and then sensed a very terrifying evil force, so Jaina teleported us here. By the way, what exactly is that guy? Could it be Mal'Ganis, the Dreadlord Arthas was hunting?"
"It wasn't Mal'Ganis, it was Tichondrius, who was many times stronger than him! Fortunately, you dealt him a heavy blow!" Jaina finally arrived, looking somewhat exhausted.
Three consecutive teleportations, spanning two to three thousand kilometers, were too much for her, even with her profound mastery of Teleport. She was now severely depleted of both her magical power and physical strength, and her spirit was somewhat low.
" Tichondrius is the leader of the Dreadlord; that injury is nothing to him." Jiang Jie shook his head, then looked at Uther: "Have you found Prince Arthas?"
Upon hearing this, both Uther and Jaina's expressions turned extremely ugly.
" Arthas has become Death Knight! He wields a terrifying sword! He and Tichondrius killed many Wildhammer Gryphon Rider and captured Korth'azz!" Uther shouted. "He intends to return to Lordaeron, kill King Terenas, and destroy Lordaeron!"
hiss!
Upon hearing this, everyone gasped.
If it weren't Uther said this, they would definitely scoff!
How could Arthas have become Death Knight? And how could he possibly have the ability to kill so many Wildhammer Gryphon Rider in front of Uther, and even kill Lord Korth'azz?
Also, wasn't he supposed to be in Northrend hunting down the Dreadlord Mal'Ganis? Why would he be teaming up with the Dreadlord's leader?
What exactly happened?
