In that instant, the entire inn was filled with an incredibly dense Holy Light. The combined energy of these six people far exceeded the imagination of ordinary people. Even Uther the Lightbringer, the only Legendary Paladin of the Order of the Silver Hand, could not mobilize or control so much Holy Light energy!
All this Holy Light energy converged within the Shadow Crystal, and the interior of the crystal ball, which was like an endless night, began to radiate Holy Light. The darkness gradually receded at this moment, replaced by a flame-like orange-red!
At this moment, it gathered unimaginable Holy Light energy, the shadows completely disappeared, and it truly became an incomparably holy crystal ball!
"I can feel that its power is completely different from before! I want to know what it is now? I... have to try." Alexandros reached out and touched the crystal ball.
This hand once touched the Shadow Crystal, and was subsequently corroded and damaged by Shadow energy, which even Holy Light could not heal.
But unexpectedly, the hand was healed in an instant!
"By the Holy Light! When I touched it, I felt the Holy Light penetrate my body, and an unprecedented power merged with my mind and soul! It not only purified my body but also my heart!" Alexandros murmured to himself, "I have seen the realm of Legendary! If I forge it into a weapon, then wielding it, I will be Legendary like Uther!"
Legendary!
This is a field that everyone aspires to, but only a very few can actually access.
The Order of the Silver Hand have been established for 15 years, and only one Legendary Paladin has emerged!
Uther the Lightbringer!
In the final battle at Blackrock Mountain, Turalyon took up Lothar's broken sword, " Great Royal Sword," and ultimately unleashed terrifying Holy Light energy, defeating Orgrim Doomhammer. However, he was still considered not to have reached the level of Legendary Paladin.
To date, no one knows that Turalyon is still alive and has already advanced to the Legendary realm.
Now, Alexandros claims to have seen the Legendary realm, and not only High General Abbendis and Fenna, but even Tirion, the first generation of Paladin, is filled with envy.
Even he hadn't seen the Legendary realm; he was still far from it.
But who has the ability to forge a crystal ball into a peerless weapon?
" Ironforge." Jiang Jie looked around and pointed to the towering mountains to the south, saying, "The forging skills of the Ironforge Dwarves are unparalleled in the entire Eastern Kingdoms. King Bronzebeard Magni the best among them. Only he has the ability to forge this crystal ball into a legendary weapon."
" Ironforge? That's right, only the Dwarves have that ability!" Alexandros's eyes gleamed. The allure of becoming Legendary, and the temptation to witness a legendary weapon, made him exclaim, "I'm going to Ironforge right now! I'll have King Magni forge it himself!"
"I'm afraid that won't work." Jiang Jie shook his head and said, " Highlord, His Majesty the King has ordered you to return to Lordaeron immediately. There's a meeting tomorrow to discuss how to deal with the crisis facing the entire nation. Therefore, no one, including you, can go to Ironforge."
This is the absolute truth, because at this very moment, what these people should be doing is returning to Lordaeron and protecting Lordaeron, instead of leaving for a month or two and waiting in Ironforge, thousands of miles away.
"Then I'll go. I'm no longer a member of the Silver Hand, so I don't need to attend tomorrow's council meeting," Tirion suggested, his eyes filled with endless longing as he looked at the crystal ball purified by Holy Light.
Jiang Jie glanced at Tirion Fordring, thinking to himself, "This old man is really good at black market gear. Historically, he even wanted Duke Bolvar's helmet of the Black Lich King... But will I let you have your way?"
The others nodded in agreement; it was a good idea. Although Tirion had been expelled from the Order of the Silver Hand...
But everyone present believed in his character and abilities. Highlord Alexandros nodded and patted Tirion on the shoulder. "Old friend, I'm counting on you!"
"I'm sorry, but I'm afraid that won't work either." Jiang Jie shook his head again. "In fact, His Majesty the King and Princess Calia both hope that Highlord Tirion can return to the Order of the Silver Hand and return to Hearthglen. They need him there, and young Taelan Tirion Fordring needs him too. Princess Calia will propose at tomorrow's meeting that Lord Uther the Lightbringer personally preside over the ceremony to welcome Highlord Tirion back. I think His Majesty the King will agree, and the Lightbringer will agree as well."
Jiang Jie is lying through his teeth; that's not true at all.
However, once he returns to Lordaeron, he will definitely make the suggestion to Princess Calia. This is a great opportunity, and Lordaeron does indeed need Tirion; after all, he is a powerful Grand Knight, second only to Uther, Gavinrad, and Dathrohan, and even above Alexandros.
"Yes! Tirion, you should have come back a long time ago! We all want you back! We can fight side by side again!" Alexandros exclaimed excitedly.
He and Tirion were very close, and of course he wanted him back.
"Really? That's... great!" Tirion certainly wanted to go back too, but he still hesitated. "But if that's the case, who will go to Ironforge? I have a feeling that this crystal ball will become an artifact against the Undead!"
"Don't worry, Miss Jaina and Miss Fenna will deliver it safely to Ironforge, and then Miss Fenna will witness the birth of Ashbringer." Jiang Jie finally revealed his true colors, winking at the stunned Fenna, then looking at Alexandros: " Ashbringer, that's the name I gave to the weapon that's about to be born. It's quite fitting, isn't it?"
The group exchanged glances, ultimately having to admit that this was indeed the best solution. Jaina and Fenna were both trustworthy, and Jaina was proficient in Teleport; with her assistance, the journey to Ironforge wouldn't take long, and Ashbringer would be created much faster.
Everyone was happy!
Suddenly, someone barged in.
This was a Paladin over two meters tall, with a weathered face, looking to be about fifty years old. He wore a bright Paladin armor and had a full head of white hair. As soon as he appeared, he exuded a strong aura and oppressive force. After scanning him, the game pod discovered that the Holy Light energy contained within him was even stronger than that of Alexandros and Tirion!
"Commander Dathrohan!" Alexandros called out.
" Dathrohan... my old friend," Tirion whispered.
He is one of the Grand Knight of the Silver Hand, the third most important figure after Uther and Gavinrad, the commander of the Knights, the Highlord of Stratholme, the highest governor of the entire Darrowmere region, and Tirion's direct superior.
" Tirion, it's good to see you here. Alexandros, it's great to see you all here!" Dathrohan glanced around, his gaze lingering on Jaina before he nodded, his voice booming. "This plague has taken a sharp turn for the worse! That brat Arthas massacred Stratholme! He even accused Uther of treason and announced the disbandment of the Silver Hand! We must act immediately!"
Dathrohan rushed over, covered in dust, only to find that everyone was looking at him strangely.
"Ahem." Finally, Tirion coughed, reminding him, " Dathrohan, we already know all this. His Majesty the King has ordered us to return to Lordaeron immediately... Let's go!"
Soon, Jaina and Arcanist Doan joined forces to open a portal to Lordaeron, and a group of people disappeared into the portal one after another.
"Remember, after the Ashbringer is born, you must feel its power, make it acknowledge you, and ideally, merge a part of your spirit into it, becoming one with it. I think at that moment, you will become a Grand Knight!"
Jiang Jie to Fenna, a faint smile on his face, "I'll wait for you to come back and teach you Chinese martial arts!"
