Jiang Jie's purpose in coming here this time was to obtain this scythe!
This is a combination of Staff of Elune and the fangs of the Goldrinn, containing the gentle power of the Moon Goddess, the wild power of the Goldrinn, and also sealing away a part of the Goldrinn's soul.
Few can wield this artifact. Even the high priestess who created it was unable to control it. The Worgen calamity ten thousand years ago was caused by it.
It should have disappeared, but now it has reappeared.
Jiang Jie knew that it was the priestess named " Velinde Starsong" who, unable to fight the Burning Legion, prayed to the Moon Goddess and obtained this artifact.
Of course, no one knows the truth, where the artifact was lost, or who made it reappear; not even Velinde herself knows.
The only thing Jiang Jie knew was that Velinde had no way of truly controlling this artifact. Only a truly powerful Archdruid could control it, such as the alpha wolf " Ralaar Fangfire" who was lurking in Gilneas, or its creator, the high priestess named " Belysra ".
"Master, should we help the Night Elf and Worgen?" Allen asked eagerly.
Before seeking revenge against Arthas and the Scourge, he was eager to hone his skills against the Burning Legion.
"Wait a little longer." Jiang Jie frowned.
Currently, it seems that the Night Elf and Worgen have the upper hand, just as Jiang Jie remembered.
Now, Jiang Jie is concerned about whether the Worgen still obey Velinde's orders.
Jiang Jie observed quietly, his expression growing increasingly grim.
He discovered that, without Velinde's orders, several Worgen who were clearly the "leaders" were actually directing the other Worgen in battle, and their tactics and teamwork were excellent. This showed that these Worgen were rational and very intelligent!
Now that Velinde has obtained the Scythe of Elune, there is no doubt that she can control all Worgen through it.
But now the Worgen are fighting independently and are under the command of certain " Worgen leaders," which proves that what Jiang Jie knew was true. Velinde really did, for convenience, hand over the Worgen command to several " Worgen leaders"!
"That stupid woman!" Jiang Jie's face was extremely ugly.
This means that these Worgen have actually become independent and are no longer under Velinde's control! They could rebel at any time, and they are only pretending to obey Velinde's commands now because the Burning Legion and the Satyr are also their enemies, thus avoiding being exposed.
Once the demons are repelled, they will likely reveal their true colors. At that point, the already small number of Priestess of the Moon and Sentinels will certainly be no match for the Worgen. Velinde will then repeat her previous fate, completely losing control of the Worgen, and then fleeing with the Scythe of Elune to find a solution that is simply impossible!
"Wait!"
Jiang Jie made a decision quickly.
Bringing the Fenris People's Army into the battlefield is not advisable; the best course of action now is to wait.
He's going to run over and tell Velinde that the Worgen is no longer under her control? No way she'd believe him!
Once the Worgen defeats the demon, Worgen strength will be significantly weakened. Then, once the Worgen shows its claws, it can make its move!
" Xiaohuo Xiaoshui, Xiaofeng, Xiaotu, get ready..."
Time ticked by, and a full hour passed before the demon and the Satyr finally retreated, leaving behind hundreds of corpses.
"Phew, we finally drove them away!" Velinde breathed a sigh of relief.
She looked at the dozens of sentries and priestesses gathered around her, her expression somber.
The force of three hundred men was now reduced to one-fifth. Velinde was deeply saddened and guilty, feeling her command abilities and personal strength were far too weak. If it were General Shandris Feathermoon in her place, she probably would have defeated the demons and the Satyr long ago.
However, upon seeing the Worgen slowly gathering, Velinde's expression softened, revealing an undeniable air of pride.
Although she was young and had not experienced the War of the Ancients, and although she was not yet a high priestess but only an ordinary priestess, and although her strength was not great and her status in the hearts of Lady Tyrande was not as high as that of Shandris Feathermoon, she still received the response of the Moon Goddess and obtained this artifact!
" Scythe of Elune... That's the name I gave you. Strange, why have I never heard of this divine weapon before? There's absolutely no record of it in the records of the Temple of the Moon Goddess... Well, that's not important. But why would the Moon Goddess bestow upon me such a divine weapon that represents slaughter?"
Velinde couldn't understand it.
Then I won't think about it!
She began to dream of a bright future.
She will summon more Worgen, then march from north to south, completely annihilating all the demons, after which she can go to Ashenvale Forest to provide support.
By the way, Felwood is a remote place, and she doesn't know that the Battle of Ashenvale has already begun and ended. Although Malfurion flew over this forest from Moonglade, he flew too high and was in a hurry to wake up the Druid. In addition, he didn't even know she existed, so he didn't notice her at all.
Velinde thought to herself, "With this achievement, I can be promoted to High Priestess, right?"
In the Temple of the Moon Goddess's priestly system, High Priestess is the highest title. Even Shandris and Lady Tyrande are only High Priestesses in reality. Of course, Tyrande is also the leader of the Sisterhood of Elune, so her status is naturally higher than that of the other High Priestesses...
Velinde felt something was off.
She wasn't someone who easily let her mind wander. Every Night Elf qualified to become a Priestess of the Moon possessed an extremely strong will; why would she be having such thoughts today?
She was unaware that something was affecting her without her noticing, and she was still oblivious to the impending danger.
"Careful!"
Suddenly, a loud shout startled Velinde awake.
Then she saw the Worgen, who had finally gathered, suddenly extend their claws toward the priestess and sentries beside her!
This... how is this possible!
How dare they harm their own people!
"Stop! Stop right now!" Velinde shouted, hastily raising the Scythe of Elune Scythe of Elune to control the Worgen.
But she soon discovered with horror that she could no longer control the Scythe of Elune; this divine weapon was beyond her control!
Completely unaffected!
Velinde trembled with fear.
What on earth is going on?
Just then, the voice that had just reminded her rang out again:
" Night Elf, I am Nicholas Jiang! I am a friend of Cenarius, a friend of Ashenvale Forest! Now join me in fighting off the Worgen!"
Who is it?
Who came to my aid?
Nicholas Jiang? What a strange name. Night Elf don't have names like this. It's neither fish nor fowl. The beginning sounds a bit like the names of humans and Dwarves from the Eastern Kingdoms that Sister Belysra mentioned, and the end sounds a bit like the names of the legendary Pandaren!
The next moment, Velinde saw dozens of people rushing towards her!
That's a human!
She had seen the human sketches her sister Belysra had drawn; this was exactly what they looked like—slightly shorter than Night Elf Night Elf, just as strong, except their skin was too light and their ears too short. So ugly...
These people have quite the presence! The sentinels are usually very calm and never shout like this during battle, because the Night Elf think it's meaningless.
Then, Velinde saw four elemental beings descend from the sky, forming four elemental walls that surrounded her and the other priestesses and sentinels, keeping the Worgen out. One Worgen, unable to stop in time, was burned by the flames and let out a shrill scream, while another Worgen crashed into suddenly appearing earth spikes, its head bleeding profusely.
These are four incredibly powerful elemental entities. How did they even appear?
" Velinde, if you've finished daydreaming, please perk up and fight! Of course, throw Scythe of Elune aside; it's useless now!" Suddenly hearing a voice, Velinde jumped in surprise, then realized a human was standing to her right—she hadn't noticed him at all!
