Robbie thought of the draenei in Shadowmoon Valley.
The draenei, like the high elves, are immortal. Except for the prophet Velen, their appearance is also difficult to age, and they have strong magic affinity, but they should not choose the Holy Light.
I've never heard of draenei being addicted to magic.
Let's talk about Argus 25,000 years ago. At that time, the Eredar were also abusing magic, and the civilization process was almost exactly the same as Azeroth.
Is magic addiction just exclusive to Azeroth?
Robbie felt he was getting closer to some truth.
The elves have immortality, perfect appearance, and powerful magic. No matter how you look at it, they should become the masters of this planet and the main force to eradicate the ancient gods just like the Eredar.
There is no reason why the elves can't accomplish what the Eredar can do.
Only magic addiction.
Magic addiction is like a cruel yoke, making the elves become weaker and weaker. Using magic in a restrained manner means that the magical civilization cannot develop rapidly and is unable to fight against the ancient gods.
The secrets involved here are too terrifying, a huge conspiracy, related to the future of the entire planet.
Robbie and Vanessa discussed it for a long time, because there was too little known information to draw any useful conclusions.
The two of them continued to move forward cautiously. Under the guidance of the Eye of C'Thun, they avoided dangerous places, twisted and twisted, and finally found Medivh's bedroom, where the Book of Medivh was hidden.
In Karazhan, Medivh has many bedrooms, and this bedroom looks particularly weird.
With the bed as the central axis, half of the statement is extremely luxurious. It is made of precious magic crystals and is as beautiful as the deep starry sky. Even the most luxurious nobles in Stormwind City cannot match it.
Half of it is decayed and desolate, made of sand, rotten wood and stones, with a few piles of hay used as bedding. It is so simple that it is chilling.
Robbie analyzed that this should have some symbolic meaning, meaning that with the passage of time, everything will turn into dust.
Vanessa has a different opinion. She thinks this may be a blueprint for some kind of magic research. The half bedroom made of sand, gravel and rotten wood is very similar to the sand sculpture built by Archmon to destroy Dalaran.
The Book of Medivh is hidden inside a mirror.
This tome is large and heavy, covered in red leather inlaid with gold. The cover is carefully engraved with a black crow with wings spread out. The three crooked words "Medivine" are written in the lower right corner, slowly reflected in a mirror.
Slow rotation.
Vanessa leaned in front of the mirror, observed carefully for a long time, and spread her hands to show that she was helpless.
Both of them could see that it was more like an entrance to the twisted void than a mirror. To open the entrance, you probably needed a specific ritual or a secret word, and it couldn't be destroyed from the outside.
Think about it, after Medivh became the Eternal Flesh, even Duke Alpha, who was particularly familiar with Medivh, did not get the Book of Medivh. This shows that this mirror is not so easy to break.
what to do?
Robbie and Vanessa were at their wits end.
Thieves never leave empty-handed.
If you can't take the Book of Medivh, you might as well search for other items.
There were messy books on the table nearby. They had obviously been turned over. Robbie looked through them without any hope. They were all accounts, miscellaneous books, etc. There was not even a magic book in sight.
Robbie found a best-selling book, "The Secrets of Tyrande and the Tiger."
Judging from the handprints and stains on the paper, Medivh was particularly fond of this book. Unfortunately, some of the most critical pages of illustrations were torn out. It was really annoying.
Just when the two were about to give up, Robbie found a golden bell on the table.
What is this bell for?
While Robbie was wondering, he saw the golden bell flying up and making a "ding, bell, bell" sound.
"No, this is an alarm trap."
There was a rush of footsteps outside the door, Vanessa opened the lurking curtain, and the two figures quickly disappeared.
A group of maids came in, carrying rags, buckets and the like. The leading housekeeper wore a yellow towel on her head, with sharp eyes and a smart and capable look. She directed the maids to clean the room with her hands on her hips.
The housekeeper walked to the table to sort out the books, picked up "The Secrets of Tyrande and the Tiger", looked at it carefully, frowned slightly, and put it back carefully.
Robbie felt that something was wrong with this woman's eyes. Could it be that she was discovered?
One thing is certain, the housekeeper is definitely not human, although she has a human appearance.
It was obvious that these maids were skilled workers and they cleaned the room very quickly. After a few minutes, the entire room was spotless. The maids exited the room one after another, leaving only the housekeeper.
"Are you here to find the Book of Medivh?" the housekeeper asked confusedly.
Robbie knew that he had exposed his secret. After all, he was not as professional as Vanessa. He left some traces when flipping through the book, so he could only stand up angrily.
"The smell of holy light." The housekeeper touched her nose, with a look of trust in her eyes. She walked to the mirror containing Medivh's words and read seriously:
"Archimonde has no hair."
The strange mirror opened its mouth, revealing the twisted void inside, and spit out the Book of Medivh.
The housekeeper took the Book of Medivh and turned around and handed it to Robbie.
This is......
The housekeeper is someone close to Medivh, or a personal maid. It is not surprising that she accidentally obtained the code word to open the mirror.
But Robbie didn't think he would be so lucky and get help for no reason.
"If you don't know the secret word, you can't open this book, and it's useless to take it away." The housekeeper said expressionlessly.
Robbie tried it, and sure enough, he nodded, thinking that this was just right.
"What do you need from me?" Robbie asked.
The housekeeper's dark pupils quickly expanded until all the whites of her eyes were squeezed out, and her eyes became a little scary.
"Rescue my people. The Forsaken have invaded Karazhan. Karazhan Prison lacks guards. This is the only chance. No matter who wins, my people will not end well."
Robbie hesitated for a moment, and his sleeve was pulled by the invisible Vanessa. Robbie understood:
"I'll try my best."
The housekeeper led the way and walked very quickly. She was particularly familiar with Karazhan and introduced her as she walked:
"We are the Ethereal Tribe of the Twisting Void. It has been hundreds of years since my tribe was captured by the demon Aegwynn in Karazhan. The lunatic used us to conduct various dangerous experiments. Speaking of which, this was still a city at that time."
"A city?" Robbie asked in surprise: "How can Karazhan be a city?"
Gul'dan deceived Sylvanas and disguised Karazhan as a city. Robbie thought this was a lie, but thinking about the buildings in the phantom city and the various strange otherworldly styles, there was indeed something strange about it.
.
The housekeeper explained with a calm expression:
"This turned out to be the territory of the Lothar family. The Lothar family is the bloodline of Arathi. At the suggestion of the guardian Aegwynn, the Lothar family led the tribe south and established a city in Karazhan. Everyone thought that under the guardian's
Under the protection, this city should be extremely safe, so everyone rushed to move in.
"In fact, this is exactly the case. This city is called Karazhan and has a good atmosphere. It does not close its doors at night and does not pick up things on the road. It has gradually become the center of commerce and civilization in the southern continent. Aegwin uses the experience of an interstellar mage traveling in the heavens to carefully plan every aspect of the city.
Architecture. It's a pity that people don't know that all this is a conspiracy until the end of the world..."
Speaking of this, Robbie followed the housekeeper to an underground prison.
Robbie was always observing his surroundings with the Eye of C'Thun, not daring to let down his guard at all.
Due to the invasion of the Forsaken, there were only two guards at the prison gate, who were two-headed structures. Robbie defeated them easily.
The housekeeper glanced at Robbie in surprise. It was obvious that Robbie was stronger than she expected.
"It seems I didn't choose the wrong person." The housekeeper smiled.
"I want to know about the end of Karazhan City." Robbie suggested.
The housekeeper paused, shook her head and said regretfully:
"That was a piece of history that was erased. I don't know much about it. I just heard some rumors. Aegwynn wanted to summon an evil god and use the life and soul of a city as a sacrifice to attract the evil god to come and then imprison him.
He, after obtaining his power, this evil god swallowed up the entire city of Karazhan, along with the space here, but allowed him to escape...
"Look, my people are in the cell in front."
Robbie followed the sound and saw a group of mummy-like creatures in a huge cage.
Karazhan's counterattack was extremely fierce, and the Forsaken were forced to withdraw from Karazhan.
The Forsaken suffered heavy losses, and what Sylvanas felt most distressed was the death of a large number of Vrykul. She stared fiercely at Gul'dan, especially the traitor Cairn Bloodhoof, gnashing her teeth with hatred, and would never forgive him.
Gul'dan led the Karazhan generals to the balcony on the second floor again.
"Hahaha! Sylvanas, you have failed. The Forsaken should learn from today's lesson. After all, you are not the real Lich King." Gul'dan said proudly.
Sylvanas looked at the Karazhan generals on the second floor. Although there were no casualties, almost everyone was injured.
The Karazhan side's heaviest losses were the slaves who served as soldiers. Hundreds of slaves were almost killed or injured.
"Gul'dan, if I summon another group of undead, how can you resist it? Just rely on these poor wounded people?" Sylvanas asked tentatively.
"Hahaha! Sylvanas, you don't understand the true power at all. Do you know why the demon can return to the Twisting Nether and resurrect? That's because the ultimate evil energy, like the Holy Light, has the ability to resurrect and heal injuries.
"
Sylvanas was shocked when she heard this: "This is impossible."
"If I hadn't seen the terrifying power of evil energy, how could I have been willing to lead the orcs to surrender to the Burning Legion? Now let me show you the power that the Legion has given me. Today's Karazhan is like the Twisting Void."
Gul'dan raised his staff and shouted loudly:
"Resurrection, my warriors."
Underground in Karazhan, there is a pool of evil energy that has been accumulated for decades. A majestic power of evil energy shoots straight into the sky. Evil energy falls around like raindrops and penetrates into every body that is killed in battle.
Those Karazhan servants who died, or were even torn to pieces by the vrykul, repaired their bodies under the nourishment of evil energy, grabbed their weapons and stood up.
Only those structures are motionless and must be repaired before they can be resurrected.
Sylvanas was greatly shocked by the group resurrection power of evil energy, and she turned to look at Antonidas.
Antonidas shook his head: "I don't know that evil energy has such power."
Gul'dan seemed relaxed, but he was also extremely worried inside. This resurrection spell seemed spectacular and amazing, but in fact it consumed one-third of Karazhan's evil energy reserves. There was nothing he could do the last two times.
Even so, Gul'dan showed no sign of timidity at all, and said with a ferocious smile: "Sylvanas, you are just a native. Do you think that knowing some death magic means you can despise Karazhan? Evil energy is full of mysteries."
Sylvanas took a step back, and then an evil smile filled her rotten face.
"Gul'dan, the power of evil surprises me. I admit that Karazhan cannot be conquered by the strength of the Undercity alone, but you should understand the evil that has been committed in this land."
A coffin was carried in front of Sylvanas.
Gul'dan stared at the coffin, as if he had expected something, and his right hand holding the staff couldn't help but tremble. (To be continued)
