Chapter 460 The Last Hope
Duke is likely to die!?
The league has been shocked all the time these days.
Alonsos Fao's critical illness at one time brought only surprise to the upper level of the league.
After all, the only ones with the greatest influence of the Church of Holy Light are Lordaeron and the Kingdom of Storm. There are churches of Holy Light in other countries to preach, but most of them are still unbelievers.
When the kings heard the news from Alonsos, they expressed: "It's so regretful that I heard this news."
But Duke is different.
Except for the dead King Aiden of the Altlank, almost every king is a soldier. They know very well that compared to Anduin Lothar, who is more upright and courageous, and acts more straightforwardly, Duke is the adhesive and command tower that integrates the countries of the alliance into one.
Terenas's Lordaeron is the target of public criticism. Everyone knows that Terenas's motives are a bit impure. No, it should be said that Terenas's heart to be the second emperor of Soladin is simply known to everyone.
If there are fewer troops, it is the blame for the leader Lord Lordaeron.
If you send too much troops and pay for it, you have to worry about whether it was Lordaeron's conspiracy. No matter how bad it is, it is a condescending alms. No matter how comfortable it is, it is not comfortable for any kingdom.
With Duke, kings from all countries feel much more comfortable.
The troops, manpower and material resources that should be supported are absolutely sufficient and on time. And anyone can see that Duke's killing strategy that has always adhered to is the key to the alliance's current transformation from weak to strong.
If Anduin is the spiritual leader of the alliance, then Duke is the alliance leader who is second only to Anduin.
Now, just as the league was about to enter the counterattack stage, news suddenly came out that Duke was critically ill. The kings of various countries were really anxious.
Visiting Archbishop of Holy Light, it was the bosses of all countries who were trying to express their condolences one by one.
Where is Duke?
A good state guesthouse almost turned into a throne meeting.
As a result, Duke had to be moved directly to the Lordaeron Palace, otherwise six or seven kings would be surrounded by a small state hotel, what would it look like?
Even so, even the King of Kurtilas, Dalin Proudmore, who was in charge of the navy, came on a griffin, which shows that Duke's actions are of great importance.
To everyone's surprise, everyone saw a Duke with a different appearance, but not a Duke who was dying. His short head was slightly gray and as if it were dyed, and there was a small pinch of silver on his forehead.
There is nothing else other than that.
It seems no big deal, but all the high-level priests and Anthonydas, who is the most authoritative in studying curses, told all the kings that it is not that simple.
"Duke is like a bucket with many holes in his mouth. His vitality is losing every moment. Ten days later, you will see a thirty-year-old Duke. Twenty days later, he is forty. One month later, he is not fifty, but he dies directly."
"Is there no way to block those holes or something?" King Ryan was the most nervous. For others, losing a Duke, that is, losing a coalition commander. The main force of the tribe has been almost wiped out. The next battle can be won as long as it is not too idiot. The difference is how many lives are lost and how much time it takes.
But for the Storm Kingdom, what is lost is likely to be the most important kingdom cornerstone and pillar of the country in the next thirty years.
Anthony Das shook his head with regret: "A single curse is like a ball wrapped in a thread. No matter how messy it is, you can still take the thread around the thread. But Duke's condition is like a pile of threads kneaded with threads of the same color. I can't find a clue. This is a hole at the soul level created by different techniques from multiple worlds, and I can't do anything about it. The most important thing is that this is a curse cast by a demigod wizard..."
Can a mere wizard of Xiri do the good things that the guardian of the world do?
Whether it is Ryan or Anduin, his mouth is full of bitterness.
Unexpectedly, after a walk around, it was still the cause of their dead old friend Medivh.
This is the greatest irony in the world.
The temperature in the air gradually subsides. The same is true for the atmosphere lingering in the sky. Almost everyone has a feeling of being unable to breathe.
"Hateful Gul'dan!" Anduin gritted his teeth and pounded the wall.
At this time, Duke spoke: "Actually, the situation may not be as serious as you think."
"It's not serious? Then what's serious?" King Ryan's eyes were red, and even his voice was crying.
After losing the land passed down by our ancestors, Ryan did not cry.
Ryan did not cry when the fall of Stormwind, which symbolized the sovereignty of the entire kingdom.
Now Duke is critically ill, but Ryan is crying. From the beginning when his eyes are red, to the time when he cries out, it only took only two seconds.
"Boy, you're about to die now! I originally thought that you would help Varian and let him recreate the glory of the Storm Kingdom! I originally thought that if I didn't succeed, I would let you do it for..." In the end, the word "king" was not spoken. Anduin patted Ryan on the shoulder and stopped him.
"Listen to Duke first."
Duke sighed: "I guess the power of the world is powerless."
When Duke said this, the hearts of the kings were sinking.
"But fortunately, I still have the last hope for the Red Dragon Queen."
"Alextasa!?" Anthonydas's slightly cloudy eyes suddenly lit up: "Yes! Why didn't I think of her? Duke is saved, oh, at least there is hope."
"What?" The kings suddenly felt energetic.
Not every king is so knowledgeable. They may have received good education since childhood, but most of them are about governing the country, martial arts, and the practice of knighthood.
Only a knowledgeable and experienced wizard like Anthonydas can know about this.
After Antonidas' explanation, the kings realized that Alextasa was so awesome.
In the battle of the ancient times, in order to prevent Sargeras from entering this world through the portal of the Well of Eternity, the spell vortex created by the upper elves in the Well of Eternity eventually exploded. The collapse of the Well of Eternity caused a strong earthquake. The earthquake destroyed the skeleton of the Great Six of Azeroth, and nearly 80% of the Great Six of Azeroth were torn apart, leaving only a few fragmented Great Six surrounding the newly formed ocean.
The gift of life, Alextsa, the queen of the Red Dragon, cast a magical acorn in the center of the Well of Eternity. This acorn began to take root and sprout when it encountered the lake full of magical power and grew into a huge oak tree.
The roots of the big tree go deep into the bottom of the lake, and the huge canopy almost covers the entire sky. This huge oak tree is an eternal symbol of the harmonious relationship between the night elves and nature. The life energy it disperses can slowly spread and heal the wounds of the whole world. The night elves named their World Tree "Nodahil", which means "Crown of the Sky" in the Night Elf's Words. (To be continued.)8
