Chapter 340 How can the years be quiet, but someone is carrying a load
"Yeah……"
Sharlayan's decision about Alleria was not too surprising, that's the kind of character she has.
Alleria is willing to pay any price to protect her family.
High elves have a long lifespan, and even if they stay in Draenor, they may still have a chance to reunite with their families in the future.
Sarlayan hugged Alleria before saying goodbye: "Sister Alleria, please be sure to protect your own safety and don't act recklessly."
"Please remember that there is still your family in distant Azeroth waiting for your safe return."
Alleria, who had always been strong, showed a rare gentle smile and gently rubbed Sarlayan's silver hair.
"I know that with you as my belief in persisting in fighting, I will not give up hope of survival easily."
"By the way...why does your boy's hair grow so fast?"
"Ah this..."
Sarlayan spread his hands helplessly: "With strong vitality, it is inevitable for hair to grow. I will try my best to control the excess vitality."
After Sarlayan gave way, Vereesa's expression changed for a moment: "Alleria, I am still..."
"no!"
Alleria was hundreds of years older than Vereesa. Because Vereesa was busy with military affairs, both sisters were raised by the eldest sister Alleria.
Before Vereesa could finish her words, she guessed what her little sister meant and sternly rejected her decision.
"I have always been a prodigal son like the wind. My mother and I are used to not seeing me often. This time it just extends the time a little longer."
"But you are different."
Seeing Vereesa's aggrieved look, Alleria sighed softly and gently held her little girl in her arms.
"With me out of Quel'Thalas, the Farstriders lack a backbone. I'm really worried about relying on that lazy guy from Halduron."
"Sylvanas wants to lead the ranger army, and mother also has important work as a council member to be busy with. You can take charge of the Farstriders instead of me."
"besides……"
Alleria said with a smile: "I'm afraid my little brother will be very uncomfortable if he stays with his mother. The forest is the place where Windrunners should be active."
"After you return, you apply to your mother to transfer your little brother to the Farstrider camp to teach him personally. Just say it's my wish."
"Far Traveler... I understand."
Taking a deep breath, Veresa left her sister's warm embrace, holding back her tears and said firmly: "Before you come back, I will help you take good care of the Far Traveler, and I will urge him to grow up as soon as possible, little brother.
…”
"Alleria, we have an agreement. No matter how many years it takes to meet again, you must ensure that you return safely."
There were tears in the corners of Alleria's eyes, but she still smiled and extended her little finger to Vereesa.
"Old rules, we'll make sure you do it."
"Lugou~ The agreement is that it will not change for ten thousand years!"
The situation was urgent, and the warmth between the Windrunner sisters did not last long. The two sisters quickly turned their attention back to the battlefield.
Since they were just the vanguard of the Burning Legion's partial division, the legion demons that emerged from the airdrop pods did not have high-level units like the Eredar. Most of them were lower-level demons such as succubi, imps, and void walkers.
The person responsible for commanding the advance team is the backbone race of the Burning Legion, the Demon Guard.
As soon as they arrived, they were attacked wildly by the Alliance Expeditionary Force before they could even gain a foothold. The Burning Legion, which was ill-prepared, was forced to retreat.
After Sarlayan and others arrived at the battlefield, they immediately joined the battle, with only Velen hiding behind the team as usual.
It's not that the prophet doesn't have the courage to fight, on the contrary, it is the right choice for him not to show up.
Once Kil'jaeden discovers Velen's traces... I'm afraid it won't just be the advance team that lands next.
These low-level demons could not stop the expeditionary force with high morale. After the draenei also joined the battle, the coalition forces only took half a day to eradicate the demon camp and ensure that the road leading to the Dark Portal was clear again.
Just in case, Turalyon and others have been leading the army to escort the draenei to the door of the Dark Portal.
It is unknown whether he changed his mind after learning of Alleria's decision. Khadgar, who had originally made an appointment with Sharlayan to explore Karazhan, also decided to stay in Draenor.
[Well, after going around in a circle, the five heroes of the expeditionary force are finally gathered. 】
[It is inevitable by chance, but I don’t know if Turayan and Alleria will be involved in the Twisting Nether and later be picked up by the Legion of Light.]
[Probably not. They fell into the Twisting Nether because Draenor was broken. Now that Draenor is still fine, the Twisting Nether will naturally not appear so easily. 】
[Ah, isn’t that cool? The next time we meet, Tula Yang will probably be as middle-aged and bald as Danas and Lothar.]
[Turayan in the Mediterranean...don’t tell me, I really want to see it.]
【Are you a devil?】
Although Sarlayan felt a little regretful about Khadgar's decision, he also understood it and said that the overall situation was the most important thing.
Anyway, Sarlayan's lifespan is long enough, and there will still be plenty of time in the future. At worst, it will be ten or twenty years later before he can unblock the artifact and sprinkle water on it.
Before leaving, Khadgar commissioned Sharlayan and others to bring the Book of Medivh and the Eye of Dalaran back to Azeroth.
The Eye of Dalaran will inevitably be returned to Dalaran, but Khadgar does not intend to give up the Book of Medivh to Dalaran.
Although the nominal author of this book is Medivh, the contents were actually written by Sargeras.
Even if you don't mention the obscure content in the book, after Sargeras's consecration, the book itself became a fel artifact.
Mages know mages best, and their insatiable thirst for knowledge is a dangerous double-edged sword.
On the bright side, it is precisely because of the infinite thirst for knowledge that mortals can constantly develop new technologies and spells.
But from another perspective, uncontrolled curiosity may also lead to devastating consequences.
The early days of Dalaran served as a warning. They irresponsibly abused arcane magic and attracted a large number of demons from the Twisting Nether.
So what did Dalaran do?
Let’s face it, hey~ I just don’t restrict arcana, I just play.
With the help of the high elves who sensed the danger and came, a group of relatively responsible mages in Dalaran cooperated with the elves to establish the Council of Tirisfal, specifically to wipe the butt of Dalaran mages who only know how to make trouble by waving their belts.
If you attract demons in front of you, the Council of Tirisfal will kill them in the back. This sense of security makes Dalaran more and more unscrupulous.
Even now that the Council of Tirisfal has been destroyed, Dalaran still has not changed its own way of doing things.
What should I do if I have no one to wipe my butt and attract more demons?
The same old rules, keep doing them.
I'm sorry to ask, but it means Guardian Aegwynn is taking the lead in seeking death. We are just learning from the experience of our ancestors.
Compared with the ignorant and fearless Dalaran mage, Khadgar saw a lot of secrets buried under the surface of Azeroth during the period when he studied with Medivh. He knew that the world was not as different as most mages thought.
Simple.
The reason why Dalaran can maintain a relatively open academic attitude is not that Dalaran's system itself is superior, but that there are people behind it carrying the burden forward.
Now that there are no more people carrying the burden forward, who will pay for the Dalaran mage's suicide?
The answer is themselves.
The history provided by the barrage is enough to prove that Dalaran's set of rules will definitely lead to disaster.
Kel'Thuzad, who will become a lich in the future, is a clear example.
Although Khadgar doesn't know how the future will develop, as a mage, he understands mages better than any outsider.
If the Book of Medivh is sent to Dalaran, he can guarantee with his old face that someone will be able to secretly study this evil tome, and there will be a 100% chance of finding something.
Anyway, if something goes wrong, the Council of Tirisfal will take care of it.
What, you said the Council of Tirisfal is gone?
It doesn't matter, there are Antonidas and other Kirin Tor councilors holding it up, so even if the sky falls, it won't be able to hit me on the head.
Due to the connivance of the Council of Tirisfal for thousands of years, Dalaran's exquisite egoistic culture that penetrates into the bones will only cultivate selfish people with no taboos.
Mage leaders like Ronin, Khadgar, and Jaina who care about the world are more like genetically mutated individuals that appear by chance, and they appear even more outstanding when compared with other typical Dalaran mages.
Khadgar hoped that Thalayan would temporarily keep the Book of Medivh on his behalf, but not send this fel artifact to the treasury in Quel'Thalas.
He also doesn't believe in the consciousness of the high elf mage. After all... the world is as dark as crows.
As for the last artifact recovered from Ner'zhul - the Scepter of Sargeras, Khadgar will need to use it next.
He planned to activate the power of this highly offensive artifact and use it to blow up the Dark Portal.
