Descendants of elves with half blood can be called half-elves, but... few people know what the other half of the blood is besides the Sarlayan elves.
Races such as dwarves and gnomes who have settled in the Eastern Kingdom for a long time have very obvious racial characteristics.
Sarlayan's height is taller than the average of high elves. Obviously, the other half of his bloodline cannot be dwarves or gnomes.
According to common sense, many people would think that Sarlayan is a mixture of high elf and human.
A more knowledgeable person might guess that his other half is night elf or nightborne.
Aegwynn is over 900 years old and has served as the guardian of Tirisfal for over 800 years.
Definitely considered well-informed.
Others don't dare to think because of their knowledge and experience, but mages with unconventional thinking dare to boldly make assumptions and then carefully verify the unexpected things.
Based on Sarlayana's powerful resistance to magic without relying on magic tools, Aegwynn boldly guessed that the boy in front of him might have dragon blood.
In Aegwynn's impression, dragonmen are all stupid and thick men with dragon heads and four legs. Most dragonmen are transformed from mortals.
As far as Aegwynn knows,
The draconians guarding Wyrmrest Temple were all voluntarily transformed by night elves in ancient times, completely changing their racial category.
Dragonites like Sarlayan who can maintain human form,
Never heard of Aegwynn before.
Don't talk about Aegwynn,
Even the five guardian dragons have never seen such a perfect "creation" with dragon and mortal blood mixed together.
Sarlayan's life form is undoubtedly a miracle. His mother Inas finally succeeded after a long period of genetic adjustment and can be said to be the only perfect dragon.
Aegwynn's surprised look triggered an in-depth discussion in the barrage, and while chatting, they mentioned some news related to the world of Azeroth that they had seen recently.
[By the way, isn’t Dragon Hill who was released in 10.0 also a dragon? Is it any different from Sharlayan? 】
[Who told you that Long Hill is a dragon? After all, that thing is still a dragon, but its shape is different from an ordinary dragon. 】
[Dragon Hill is the legacy of Deathwing. After experiencing the failures of the colorful dragon and the twilight dragon, he finally succeeded in developing the experimental creation after learning from the experience and lessons. 】
[Xiao Sha's ability is indeed similar to Long Hill to a certain extent. He also has the power of the five dragon clans and can also transform into dragon and giant dragon forms. 】
[It seems that Dragon Hill cannot transform into a dragon. He can only switch between human form and half-dragon form. 】
[Who knows, after all, it is something that has not been officially released yet. Maybe a completely dragon-like setting will be added in the future. Let’s let the bullets fly for a while. 】
Thalayan, who was busy chatting with Aegwynn, had no time to pay attention to the chatter of the barrage.
After Aegwynn guessed about Sharlayan's identity, she obviously changed her fighting style.
Previously, she used small spell combos with fast casting speed.
Now it has become a powerful high-level spell with flying bricks.
Even an adult dragon's magic resistance has its limits. Aegwynn had fought against dragons when she was young and vigorous. At that time, her spells could forcibly tear apart the dragon's own magic resistance and hurt them.
When she is a demigod witch, she can hurt the demigod dragon. After being downgraded to a legend,
Aegwynn can theoretically injure Sharlayan, who has not yet entered the demigod realm, but he just needs to change his fighting ideas.
When fighting with melee professionals, most mages cannot recite complete spells under the constant pressure of the enemy, and it is difficult to hold back powerful high-level spells.
I have to say that Aegwynn's combat experience is indeed very rich.
Even in close combat, she was able to dodge most of Sarlayan's attacks with the instinctive reflexes developed through long-term combat.
After all, Sarlayan's close combat style is still essentially that of a warrior.
Although the power of each attack is impressive, the attack speed is not fast enough, giving Aegwynn plenty of time to anticipate and dodge.
While dodging multiple powerful blows from Sharlayan's sword, Aegwynn was still able to move her body and recite spells quickly.
[Damn it! You can recite incantations while fighting, is that okay? How about just fighting each other? 】
[Don’t tell me, it’s really a bit of a fight between the two. 】
[If you want to avoid Sharlayan's attack, relying on instinct alone is far from enough. Aegwynn is also using distraction.]
[Then... isn't there something wrong with Xiao Sha? Aegwynn's spell seems to be almost finished. 】
The arcanist's high-level spells are a relatively complex system, consisting of tones, pronunciation of words, and the matching of magic power, all three of which are indispensable.
The further Aegwynn chants the spell, the more mellow and tonal his words become, and the higher his momentum becomes.
As Aegwynn finally spit out a clear and loud arcane spell,
Her turquoise eyes were dyed with a bright orange-red color.
"Meteor shower!"
The temperature near the battle site suddenly began to rise sharply.
Jaina and Tinagosa, who were blocked by Onyxia, didn't feel much at all.
But through the gradually boiling muddy water in the surrounding wetland area, you can see how drastic the temperature changes outside are.
Sarlayan, who was the first to bear the brunt, felt the heat wave first. The fire element simulated by arcane magic appeared above Aegwynn. Dozens of basin-sized fireballs were aimed at his position, bombarding him one after another like falling meteors.
"Gan!"
There was a drop of cold sweat on Sarlayan's forehead: "Meteor shower? It's better to call this the Infinite Pyroblast Technique!"
Each "meteor" trailing flames possesses the power of pyrotechnics. With such a powerful spell, Sarlayan does not dare to use weapons to attack it.
"The wind is coming!"
Since it was difficult to defeat Aegwynn with warrior abilities alone, Sharlayan also flexibly changed his fighting ideas.
"Tatsura!"
With Sharlayan as the center, a cyclone barrier quickly formed, and the high-speed rotating storm blocked all the fire meteors thrown by Aegwynn.
Eroded by the high-temperature flames, the originally gray tornado was dyed fiery red, and Salayan, who was in the eye of the storm, was sweating profusely.
"open!"
As Sarlayan's hands spread outward at the same time, the tornado quickly expanded in all directions. The originally highly compressed airflow gradually dissipated as the distance increased, but at the same time it also took away the last aftermath of the meteor shower.
"tnnd, are you playing tricks on me?"
Sharlayan really didn't expect that Aegwynn could chant in parallel during the fierce battle, and she was caught off guard.
However, this kind of sneak attack is most effective the first time. After Sarlayan improves his defense, it will not be so easy to trick him again.
"Hu~hu~"
This big spell consumed a lot of Aegwynn's mana. After all, she was no longer young, and she no longer had the strong guardian power she once had. The big spell made her feel a little weak, and she turned pale and gasped for air.
After being tied up by the vines summoned from the ground by Sharlayan, Aegwynn gritted her teeth against the backlash of the spell and used Blink to break free.
Having learned the lessons from before, Sarlayan no longer stupidly wielded dual-wielding weapons to attack, but turned into a panther with agile movements, significantly speeding up the frequency of attacks.
When being closely guarded, mages are most afraid of enemies like thieves who attack frequently and are agile.
The Black Panther played the role of a rogue's personal mage to a certain extent, and the high-frequency leopard claw attacks harassed Aegwynn from chanting spells.
After finally recovering from the backlash of the spell, before Aegwin could take a breath and recite the spell again, the black panther accelerated twice explosively in a short period of time and turned into an afterimage, and finally pressed its sharp leopard claw against Aegwin.
On Wen's neck.
The new skill Clear Omen broke out, and he rushed twice to catch the target. Sarlayan also took a deep breath.
"Huh~ It's really not easy."
[Aegwynn is so difficult to deal with in her weak state, but she is so domineering at her peak. 】
[After all, he is the one who defeated the incarnation of Sargeras with his own hands, so he must have a few tricks at his disposal. 】
Even though he is just the incarnation of split-soul manipulation, the demon king Sargeras is not someone who can just step on.
After guessing Sarlayan's true identity, Aegwynn had a hunch that he might not be able to defeat this young guy.
The physical fitness of dragons is no joke. Their strength, agility, endurance and resistance to magic are all beyond those of mortals.
In her prime, she was confident that she could handle this young man.
In her current bad state, the outcome of this battle was already doomed from the moment the big magic sneak attack on Sarlayan failed. At most, she could just hold on for a while longer.
"Hey~"
Aegwynn, who had experienced the peak of her power, felt helpless at her current weakness, but she never regretted passing on the power of the Guardian to Medivh.
"Well, boy, you won very well. If you want to get something from me, just tell me. I will abide by the rules of the game and I will never keep anything secret from you."
