No matter how powerful he is, and how much magic has evolved over the past few thousand years, in front of these great mages of Dalaran, in front of these warriors who have experienced hundreds of battles, there is still no
any effect.
Because even if the fireball technique from thousands of years ago consumes time and its power has not been improved, it is still a fireball technique that can kill people.
This is just like the nuclear bomb a hundred years ago, although it is no longer useful in various places, it is still a nuclear bomb and can kill people within its range.
The energy is still there,
Coupled with some wonderful, unique spells and the like, Karai's death was simply too normal.
He just fell to the ground, staring at the sky with his eyes fixed, and in the end he didn't feel that he had done anything wrong.
He had struggled for so many things in his life, and Li Ke would ask him to hand them over with just one sentence.
He has endured so much hardship to gain the privileges, status, rights, and interests. Why would Li Ke want to make him lose these with just one thought?
But Carle will never know.
Li Ke has never targeted him.
Li Ke is targeting the arrogance of mages, the sects, and the mages who want to bring bad habits into his empire.
In other words, the target was not just him, but the entire Dalaran mages.
The mages of Dalaran have been accustomed to this set of cannibalistic rules for too long.
The archmages oppressed the lower-level mage apprentices, and the mage apprentices exploited their own families, or deceived them, and tried every means to stay in Dalaran to learn magic, hoping that after learning magic, they could earn enough money to change their own destiny.
However, how many can truly become Archmages?
Countless mages and wizard apprentices died meaninglessly in this cycle.
But when farmers in Lordaeron only need a few gold coins to survive a month, and an apprentice mage in Dalaran can earn a monthly salary of several hundred gold coins, and when they spend tens of thousands of gold coins learning spells, those farmers
I don't care where these gold coins come from, and learning magic is such a dangerous thing.
Magic is basically another upward channel.
So this set of rules could work in medieval Azeroth.
What Li Ke wants to destroy is this old upward channel and replace it with a more efficient circulation channel.
And Kalai, the burial object of this old system, was chosen as a victim by other archmages and surrendered. He was forced to become a clown. How could he, Li Ke, feel happy because of the death of such a person?
He just feels sick.
Therefore, when the people from Dalaran sent a message saying that Rebellion was dead, Li Ke had a look of disdain on his face.
Because he knew that from now on Dalaran would be the dog under his control. Even if the archmage of Dalaran preached how good something was the day before, as soon as he opened his mouth, they would immediately forget everything they said yesterday.
Then he quoted scriptures and said how bad this thing is.
"As long as these people have some sense of resistance, I won't care about them so much."
Li Ke sneered casually, these mages actually fit in with the false and non-existent class of 'middle class' in every sense.
Their knowledge allows them to easily see the true face of things, but they are different from the common people at the bottom.
They don't have as many things as the nobles. Unlike the nobles, they can't afford to fail. What they get from surrender will definitely not be more than what they already have, so they won't sacrifice their lives to firmly protect their rights and interests.
And cut off all his escape routes.
But they have more than the common people, and it doesn't matter even if they surrender, so they don't dare to give up rashly, because they all started from scratch, and naturally they know how difficult it is to climb over others again after losing these.
.
So when he knew that he was determined to build his own Dalaran even if there was no Dalaran, and then popularize magic, Dalaran's attitude and fate were already doomed.
This is why the nobles of Lordaeron can get their own compensation, but he can completely ignore the mages who have greater power, and he doesn't even intend to care about them.
These people are the weakest.
But the nobles of Lordaeron were different. They had seriously considered the possibility of fighting them, and came to the conclusion that they could not defeat them, so they sincerely surrendered, and in this case, allowed themselves to lift their power.
Armed.
This is different.
Because the Lordaeron nobles' troubles would really affect his plans and cause the people of Lordaeron to have a worse sense of him, but Dalaran would not.
Dalaran's prosperity is due to their lack of kings and nobles, as well as a large number of immigrants from other countries.
But Dalaran's demise was also because they had no king and nobility, and they did not have any "idiots" who were willing to die with Dalaran.
But a country without such 'idiots' cannot be strong.
And these people who resist Li Ke for their own interests will inevitably be divided because of their interests.
Li Ke is becoming more and more able to see this clearly, and he is becoming more and more proficient in using it.
"You can't say that. After all, mages are all smart people. Smart people are always like this. They think a lot. They always feel that they can convince other people with their own ideas and eloquence, and treat other people as fools."
Dai Lin sneered. These mages read a few more books and treat others as fools. They question this and that, talk about human rights, and say all day long that they, the Dalaran people, are the wisest among all races.
The wisest one.
But what about actually?
It's of no use.
They are useless for big things, and their mages are not needed for small things. When there is no war, the meaning of mages to the nobles is really only to perform tricks and concoct various aphrodisiacs and tonics.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! It is really useless at other times.
As for the suggestions made?
Most of them are useless.
Just like they had previously advised Terenas to isolate the undead, they spoke clearly and logically, as if Terenas would perish if he didn't listen to their advice.
Although Terenas has indeed lost his country, can he isolate his own people just by saying isolation?
What to do with people’s opinions, what to do with food during the period? What to do with autumn harvest and spring planting? What to do with various businesses? You force everyone to stay at home, which requires grassroots management and coordination capabilities, and also requires all walks of life,
Have they ever thought about how exaggerated the ability of an industry like loan sharking to cooperate with isolation is?
Not to mention whether the people will panic or riot. Once there is a problem in one link, there will be problems in the entire kingdom, and it is not impossible to directly lead to the destruction of the country.
Moreover, Lordaeron actually died not from the undead plague, but from Arthas' backstab.
Who can do anything about the confrontation between the sole heir and the king?
"But it's almost over, Li Ke, they have learned their lesson."
Dai Lin still chose to say something to the mages of Dalaran. After all, although his ship had the help of the Tide Sage, Dai Lin, who never liked being threatened, also turned to the mages of Dalaran to help transform it.
own ship.
He is not the kind of person who would give all his wealth and life to one force, especially these tide sages are somewhat mysterious.
Therefore, the relationship between Dailin and the mages of Dalaran is really good, and many times, the business in Kul Tiras is taken care of by the mages of Dalaran.
This time, Dai Lin actually lost a lot of money when he sent Kalai on his way.
If Li Ke still insists on killing all the great mages, he...
He asked Gianna to go to Li Ke's bedroom to cry.
Li Ke rubbed his temples, looked at his father-in-law, and sighed in his heart.
He picked up his information and took a look at it. It said that an elf mage who lived in Dalaran all year round went to Dai Lin's room last night and brought several bottles of energy replenishing potions and several blueprints of battleships.
He looked at the list of his new life assistants, and as expected, Fenna Golden Sword appeared on it, the name of Dai Lin's half-elf illegitimate daughter, and she was mainly responsible for changing clothes.
What is a human society? This is called a human society.
"Furthermore, the mana crystals needed by the elves also need to rely on Dalaran, and we always need some of our own. I know your goals are very ambitious, but you are a human after all, aren't you?"
Dai Lin spread her hands again and made some heart-wrenching remarks.
But Li Ke couldn't blame him. Dai Lin was a typical human supremacist, and it was hard to say there was anything wrong in this world.
Li Ke shook his head and gave the order he had prepared long ago.
"Then let Jaina give a list and let her choose who can be trusted, but I need a sufficient collection of spells in my university. In addition, let Dalaran produce some people, and the blue dragon,
The night elves formed a team dedicated to investigating the abuse of magic to prevent some unbearable things from happening."
At this point, Li Ke paused. He really didn't want to waste any more time on these weaklings in Dalaran, so he planned to finish all his requests in one breath.
"Also tell them that I can live for at least a thousand years. If they really want to play with me, I don't mind using five hundred years to play tricks on them. So it's best to get my results as soon as possible, and let me
They are trying to find a way for me to bring down the price of magic materials. If it is still the same as before, tens of thousands of gold coins easily..."
Li Ke sneered.
"They have no value in existing. I will act according to the rules."
His order revealed great oppression of the mages of Dalaran, but it was for the mages of Dalaran, but no one would care about it, except those mages.
But the mages who have already started an internal fight still have enough strength to resist Li Ke?
The answer is obvious.
Dai Lin accepted Li Ke's order and retreated. Li Ke knew that he would definitely get a lot of benefits from this opportunity, but what he gave was enough.
Legitimacy, the support of the people, and the oppression of other nobles. Without his full defection, the nobles of Lordaeron would not have surrendered so simply, and the mages of Dalaran may not have too many people to stand up.
On his side.
Therefore, the benefit of marrying Gianna is actually being able to have her father stand behind him.
Although Jaina is a super powerful archmage and a super genius specializing in teleportation, she is basically a humanoid nuclear bomb, a strategic weapon, the kind that one person can stop an army.
But for Li Ke, her political significance is even more important.
But what's interesting is that, in terms of purely political purposes.
Li Ke actually married not Gianna, but her father Dai Lin.
Li Ke closed his eyes. In front of him was Stromgarde, as well as several other human kingdoms asking for help and requesting to change to the light cast iron armor built by Li Ke. He did not regard his kingdom as a kingdom at all.
An independent kingdom, but completely his vassal.
In fact, this is also true. Their economic system is not even as good as Lordaeron. Li Ke is waiting to die when he meets him.
Among the seven human kingdoms, except for Alterac, which has been destroyed, and Gilneas, which is closed to the country, the others are already in the hands of Li Ke.
"When we come out this time, we can solve it all in one go."
Li Ke traced his finger across his map. Under the influence of magic, the color of the place he traced changed, and the entire Eastern Kingdom turned into his golden color.
However, only Gilneas, a small place, still maintained a different color, so although it maintained its original color, it became extremely dazzling at this time.
"Greymane..."
Li Ke tapped his fingers. The famous Wolf King has not realized his mistake yet. After all, after the death of Lordaeron, it is not that Stormwind City, which was unable to threaten Gilneas for a short period of time, has become more powerful.
Moreover, he has never experienced the destruction of his country or his family, nor has he experienced displacement. He only survived because of the goodwill of the alliance.
He never experienced the pain of losing a son and became a lonely old man. He subconsciously regarded Varian as his son and Anduin as his grandson.
Therefore, Greymane at this time will not be the charming old wolf king, but will only be a boring old man.
Originally, if he didn't come here in advance, he could still let the old wolf play by himself for a while, but now, he can only let the old king show his dignity.
"Coup, uprising, rebellion..."
Li Ke let out a long sigh.
"I hope you won't let me use these methods, Greymane, I really hope your daughter can lie in my arms, and then you can retire with Dai Lin with a smile, go fishing when you have nothing to do, and urge Anduin
Married. After all, like Varian, Thrall, Arthas, Ronin, Malfurion, and Illidan, you are all my favorite characters..."
But if the old wolf king doesn't want to...
That's all we can do is please him with dignity.
Li Ke closed his eyes and began to rest in the main hall. After an hour, he would go to meet the leaders of the Crusaders who came to meet him and give them reassurance.
As for Dalaran, which just surrendered?
No one cares about Dalaran, which actually split itself once.
