In this civil war that engulfed the entire Maldraxxus, the House of Soulselection and the House of Decay made no secret of their cooperation with each other, and the House of Creation and the House of Ritual were also in cahoots.
These four secret chambers formed two camps respectively, and they were attacking each other in the Theater of Death.
The position of the House of Sharp Eyes is quite special. As the intelligence manager of Maldraxxus, Marquis Sharp Eyes has always maintained a superficial neutrality in the conflict between the two sides.
Marquis Akalek did not want to directly participate in the war. His purpose was to find the missing soldier.
But as one of the secret chambers most loyal to the military master, Akalek has always been very unhappy with the ambitious Marquis de Gamar who wants to usurp the throne.
On the surface, the House of Sharp Eyes remains neutral, but in fact, Akalek's position secretly favors the "royalist faction" composed of the House of Soulselection and the House of Decay.
Regarding this point, Sindani, the old fox at the Ritual Secret Courtyard, also knows everything about it.
However, she did not want to completely force the Sharp Eyes Academy into the enemy's camp, and repeatedly advised the Marquis de Gamal, who had strong limbs and a simple mind, to exercise restraint against the Sharp Eyes Academy.
As one of the two barons who assisted the Marquis of Caixus, Wilfred's secret position towards the House of Sharp Eyes was clear.
The Marquis of Sharp Eyes personally sent the letter, and he must have something important to tell the Marquis of Caixus, and the bellicose Wilfred did not dare to act foolishly at this time.
After following Wilfred into the Soul Chosen Academy, Sarlayan observed calmly along the way.
There was a forging field outside the Soul Selection Academy. Sarlayan observed it carefully and found no one suspected of being the bonesmith Helmiel.
Bonesmith, as the name suggests, his appearance should be a skeleton.
There were many of Wilfred's kin in the forge. These powerful men were hammering away at the rough embryos of weapons and armor, but they didn't see any skeletons like Helmire's.
Stellagosa suddenly reminded in the soul link channel: "These weapons and armors are embedded with special runes. The blue dragon family has never seen this form of runes."
Sharlayan was not surprised by this: "The forging skills of the rune equipment of Maldraxxus are all passed down by the war master. They have always been circulated only within the Shadow Realm. As the living blue dragons, they have never seen it and are very surprised."
normal."
"but……"
Sarlayan touched his chin thoughtfully: 'According to the barrage, in the original history, these forging techniques were spread to Azeroth by Kel'Thuzad, who secretly colluded with the warden. The death knight's rune sword is
Made using this technology.'
The death knight's runeblade is different from any form of enchanted weapon, perfectly matching the death knight's own abilities.
It can even be said that the rune sword is an extension of their arm.
Now is not the time. If there is a chance in the future, Sharlayan plans to seek advice from the bonesmith to see if he can bring the master's rune equipment-making technology back to Azeroth.
Kel'Thuzad, who had stood in line in advance and received a promise from Sharlayan, was unlikely to accept the warden's recruitment again.
And due to Sarlayan's interference in the situation in the Shadow Realm, once there are no Denathrius and Nathrezim to connect with each other, the Warden will not be able to make direct contact with the world of the living like Azeroth, and naturally he will
There was no way to extend an olive branch to Kel'Thuzad.
After stepping onto a stone bridge built on magma, Sarlayan and his party officially entered the core area of the Soul Selection Academy.
According to Wilfred, another baron from the Soul Selection Academy is directing the battle in the floating city on the front line, and he cannot be seen for the time being.
With Pasonia as an example, Sarlayan once suspected that the new baron was also from Azeroth, but Wilfred clearly gave a negative answer, and Sarlayan was too lazy to go further.
Attention.
According to the information given by the Winter Queen, none of the two barons in the Soul Selection Academy is named Wilfred.
Obviously, this baron only came to power in recent years.
According to him, another baron came to office about the same time as he did.
Because he was brave and good at fighting, he made many military exploits in the civil war, and soon gained the attention of the Marquis of Caixus, who was promoted to baron three years ago.
Under the leadership of Wilfred, the four of Sarlayan went all the way to the deepest open-air platform of the Soul Selection Academy.
The Marquis of Caixus was sitting on his throne with great dignity at this time. Judging from the appearance, he and Wilfred should be of the same race. They are also over 2 meters tall and have distinct bulging muscles.
I just know it's not easy to mess with.
Next to his throne stands a powerful gladiator, who holds a huge rune battle ax in both hands, and glimmering ice-blue runes can be seen on the surface of the axe.
The Marquis of Caixus wore a helmet on his head that covered his entire face. Two large sharp horns pointed upwards protruded from both sides of the helmet. It is not known whether it was the decoration of the helmet or the horns of the Marquis of Caixus himself.
His upper body was covered in very little armor, only wearing a single shoulder armor and a pair of arm armor to protect his forearms. The rest of his body was exposed, but his lower body was wearing a complete skirt armor and leg armor.
Baron Wilfred signaled Sarlayan and others to stay in the outer circle, and he walked in first step by step, holding his war hammer tightly.
Valeela asked in the soul link channel in confusion: "Why are you so cautious? You look like you are about to go to the battlefield."
Sarlayan's eyes flashed and he said uncertainly: "Perhaps, he is indeed going to the battlefield soon."
The Marquis of Caixus, who was sitting on the throne, had been closing his eyes and concentrating. It was not until Baron Wilfred stepped closer that two light green soul fires lit up in the eyes of his helmet.
The Marquis of Caixus suddenly stood up from his seat, took the battle ax from the hand of the gladiator beside him, and strode towards Wilfred's direction.
The Marquis of Caixus' voice was quite magnetic, but what he said made Valeera and Stellagosa widen their eyes.
"Wilfred? It seems that you are reciprocating the situation. As usual, follow my move and then get down to business."
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Valeera: "...Huh?"
Sarlayan slapped his forehead in a state of laughter and tears: "I finally understand why the barons of the Soul Selection Academy are so diligent in changing. They are sailing against the current. If they don't advance, they will retreat."
Onyxia also complained with a half-smile: "Even if you don't die on the battlefield, you might die in the hands of your own marquis. This system of last-place beheading will only create an environment of ultimate involution. No wonder
The combat effectiveness of the Soul Selection Secret Academy is so powerful."
Even in Maldraxxus, where the strong are respected, the strange rules of the Soulselection Academy are unique. At least Sharlayan has never heard of being beaten before getting down to business.
Baron Wilfred was not surprised by this. He clenched the warhammer in his hand and nodded heavily.
"Please take action, Lord Marquis."
"good!"
Caixus raised the heavy battle ax above his head with one hand, and the soul fire under his helmet flashed.
"You have to hold on tight!"
Caixus jumped up from the spot, controlled the battle ax with one hand and struck it towards Wilfred, whose center of gravity had sunk.
"clang!
"
When two rune weapons of equally terrifying mass collided, they made a sharp and violent metal collision sound.
The two hands should have had the advantage over the one hand, but when Wilfred suffered the impact, his feet suddenly gave way and he knelt on the ground with one knee.
"boom!"
His knee made the entire ground tremble, which showed how much pressure Wilfred was under.
Caixus said that every move is a move. Although Wilfred was a little embarrassed when he received it, he finally managed to get through it smoothly.
"Yes, Not Bad."
Caixus Yun Danfeng took back the battle ax lightly and pulled Wilfred up from the ground with satisfaction.
"You've made a lot of progress. It seems you haven't been lazy during this period."
Wilfred looked flattered: "Your Majesty, the Marquis is very flattering. I just... don't want to disappoint you."
"Haha!" Kelsus patted Wilfred twice on the shoulder: "You are wrong. You should not let yourself down."
"As a member of the Soul Selection Academy, our purpose is to climb to the top bravely and never stop pursuing strong strength."
"Okay, let's get down to business."
Without even looking at Sarlayan and the others, Caixus turned around and sat back on the throne, handing the battle ax back to the gladiator.
"Are these outsiders related to your purpose of coming?"
"yes."
Wilfred took out the letter that Sarlayan had given him: "This is an autographed letter from the Marquis of Akalek. These are the messengers responsible for delivering the letter."
"Akalek?"
Caixus pondered for a moment before waving to Wilfred. A breeze blew by, and the letter automatically floated in front of him.
"Well, it is indeed his handwriting and power aura, but..."
After reading the letter, Kelsus finally looked at the four Sarlayans, his eyes a little playful.
"Outsiders, Akalek said in the letter, you were entrusted by the Winter Queen and Gristia to investigate the truth behind the disappearance of the soldier master?"
"Yes."
Sarlayan walked out first and saluted Caixus without being humble or condescending.
"Your Majesty the Marquis should have learned the general situation from the letter. Please also allow us to move freely in the Soul Selection Academy."
"Can."
Caixus readily agreed to Sarlayan's request: "Since it was recommended by the rigorous Akalek himself, of course I have to give him a favor."
Then Caixus suddenly changed the subject: "However, the rules of the Soul Selection Academy cannot be broken."
Kexus stood up from his seat again with great interest: "You four, anyone can do it. If you stand up and accept my move, I will allow you to investigate freely in the Soul Selection Academy."
