This is a wooden staff with a green handle. The head is a wooden carving resembling a bird, and at the very top of that carving is something that looks like a jellyfish or the tentacles of Old Gods, and it's constantly wriggling; it looks rather disgusting. (Sui-meng-. lā)
What was wriggling wasn't flesh and blood, but actually thorny brambles.
This is a Bramblestaff, more like Druid's cane.
If Jiang Jie's guess is correct, this staff should be the one used by Felhoof when he was still Night Elf Illhoof. He was once a noble Druid, but was later converted into Satyr.
As he fell, the staff also fell, becoming twisted and filled with evil magical energy and the Shadow energy of the Old Gods.
The battle just now happened too quickly. Illhoof didn't even have time to take out the staff before it was all over. Thus, the staff was spared from being burned by the flames and became Jiang Jie's spoils of war.
"What an ugly staff! How disgusting!" Anveena exclaimed in disgust, taking several steps back to hide behind Jiang Jie. "Brother, take it away!"
Jiang Jie smiled, then tossed it, along with the ring, to Med'an: "Here, it's yours!"
"My... mine?" Med'an was somewhat at a loss.
He barely participated in this battle; it was all thanks to Jiang Jie. How could he possibly take the only spoils of war?
Moreover, Meryl wanted to train him to be a battle mage, so magic swords and enchanted axes seemed more suitable for him.
" Nicholas, I..." Med'an hesitated, because he really wanted the staff.
He wasn't stupid; he could tell this staff was excellent, practically epic-level, not much inferior to Meryl's own staff. Who wouldn't want something so good, except for its slightly ugly appearance?
In the end, he handed the staff to Jiang Jie, because the staff exuded a strong demonic and dark aura, which was not suitable for him.
"Right, I need to purify it first. Otherwise, it won't suit you, but it'll be more suitable for Master Meryl." Jiang Jie took the staff and mobilized natural energy.
The Blessing of Cenarius between his brows emitted a green light, allowing Jiang Jie to directly communicate with the Emerald Dream, mobilizing natural energy and infusing it into his staff.
In other places, it probably wouldn't be so easy. Even with Jiang Jie's mastery of natural magic, and even with Blessing of Cenarius, it would be difficult to purify this staff that the Legendary Satyr used for tens of thousands of years.
However, this is a point where space and time intersect, and the spatial barrier is very thin. Moreover, the other side of the barrier is the Emerald Dream. Jiang Jie's threshold for communicating with the Emerald Dream has been greatly lowered, allowing him to mobilize more natural energy.
Soon, natural energy flowed throughout the staff, banishing evil and Shadow energy, which were replaced by natural energy.
Nourished by natural energy, the staff recovered from its distorted state, and the bird statue on its head became lifelike, revealing itself to be a Storm Crow. Illhoof must have been a Druids of the Talon back then, and at least a high-ranking one.
The outstretched thorny tentacles ceased wriggling and disappeared.
The entire staff looks just like the famous Chicken Leg Staff, although the real Chicken Leg Staff has not yet been restored; this staff is at best a replica.
It shouldn't have looked like this; it was only because Jiang Jie modified its shape to resemble Chicken Leg Staff that it looks so much like Chicken Leg Staff.
"Alright, here you go." Jiang Jie tossed the staff to Med'an, Med'an quickly caught it.
The staff now appears to be brimming with the life force of natural energy, perhaps more suitable for a Druid, but it's not bad for a mage either. Simply infuse it with Arcane energy, and it will naturally transform into a mage staff, an epic-grade one.
Med'an no longer hesitated; he was captivated by it.
He slipped the ring onto the finger of his right hand, but instead of putting the staff away, he tried to wave it. He didn't notice the wall behind him and hit it with a loud bang. Med'an's heart nearly broke!
"My staff!" Med'an was heartbroken and looked extremely annoyed: a mage's staff!
How could it be used as an axe? Upon inspection, it was discovered to be completely unharmed.
Don't worry, Med'an.
Seeing this, Jiang Jie laughed, "This staff is made of magical thorns. Druid's staff isn't just a pretty face for casting spells; it's even sturdier than stone! Throw away your axe, this staff is your new weapon. You can use it as an axe without any problem!"
Based on the game's attributes, this staff was originally designed for Druid, with its additional attributes being Agility and Stamina, which makes sense.
"Really?" Med'an beamed with joy, but after a moment's hesitation, he didn't throw the axe away. Instead, he put it into his ring.
"If you really like axes, I'll ask Kael'thas for one when he comes back," Jiang Jie said with a smile.
Dire Maul doesn't drop many epic weapons, and " Ancient's Bane " is one of them. It's a perfect tribute from the Gor'dok Ogre and is extremely rare.
Kael'thas is now the master of Dire Maul, so that axe must have fallen into his hands.
High Elf typically use staves and swords; that axe would be useless against them. Given Jiang Jie's relationship with him, getting that axe would be a simple matter of a word.
Hearing Jiang Jie's words, Med'an still hesitated, reluctant to part with the weapon he had used for so many years. In the end, he put it away and secretly decided: I'll give it to Meryl. When I'm not around, he can use it to chop wood and make a fire, so he won't be cold.
" Med'an, let's move on... Meryl's spell isn't ready yet, we still have time... to see someone, someone very important to you." Jiang Jie walked out of the storage room.
"Someone important to me?" Med'an looked puzzled.
He quickly pressed for more information, but Jiang Jie waved his hand, saying, "Don't ask anymore. I'm not even sure if he's there... Let's see when we meet. You'll understand then."
Before long, they arrived at the very top of the library, where a separate room stood before them—a private library, a library existing solely for one person.
"So you really were here." Jiang Jie breathed a sigh of relief.
The game pod scanned the scene inside the door and saw the constantly lingering image, the echo of time and space that existed solely because of Medivh's memories.
"Let's go see him. Med'an, keep quiet. You must show him the utmost respect. Both his status and his conduct throughout his life deserve your respect," Jiang Jie instructed.
"Could it be a great elder inside? Or a mage even more powerful than Meryl?" Med'an wondered with boundless curiosity.
He felt that even when facing Meryl, Jiang Jie didn't show much respect but treated her as an equal. Why did he seem so serious and solemn here?
"Don't overthink it. He's an echo left behind by a mage, not human but not exactly Undead either. Medivh's longing for him created him, involving extremely profound magic. Perhaps Meryl understands a little, but you certainly don't. In short, he exists because of Medivh, and Medivh exists because of him."
Jiang Jie said calmly, "His spellcasting ability isn't stronger than Meryl's, but it's still Legendary level. However, that's not why I respect him. I respect him because he's a great father, Med'an Nielas Aran."
