In the dark basement, Gading, the dean of the Scholomance Academy, led the way. The swaying torches on the walls shone with a long green light, casting a green halo over the entire corridor, as if walking in a world of ghosts.
"The history of Scholomance Academy is older than Lordaeron itself." Dean Gardin's voice was magnetically hoarse, and he had the temperament of an old scholar.
Robbie followed behind, admiring the ancient murals on the walls.
"In the distant years, a group of exiled forest trolls settled on the island of Keldaron, performing dark sacrifices according to the ancient troll tradition, hoping to awaken a certain dark god. Yes, we must be grateful for these
Trolls, their sacrifice failed, but they inadvertently opened up the initial ghost space for us.
"At the beginning of the founding of Lordaeron, a group of crazy warlocks pursuing immortality secretly conducted dangerous and evil experiments on the island of Keldaron. A few souls as sacrifices escaped deep underground. It was a very coincidental discovery.
Entering the ghost space, they are the first residents here.
"Subsequently, a secret about immortality spread among the mages and warlocks. The Scholomance Academy has been carefully selecting suitable candidates. What we need are scholars who persistently pursue the power of magic and devote themselves to the study of magic.
Known as the Archmage, he is using magic to arm himself as an ambitious man. We guide the suitable people in their twilight years to enter the island of Keldaron, and after taking their last breath, help them enter the ghost space and obtain eternal life. Here, they can not
Affected by the worldly world, he devoted himself to studying magic.
Speaking of this, Dean Gading raised his head slightly, showing a proud look, and spoke in a high and steady voice.
"In terms of research on magic theory, we were far ahead of Dalaran, but at that time we were just a group of ghosts. We had theories but were unable to practice them. We urgently needed to establish connections with the real world and verify our magic theories.
"At this time, a young man named Barov came into our view. He has Arathi blood. Although he is a run-down nobleman, he is smart, motivated, and has an upright and just heart. We gave him a
A piece of ghost essence, which is a tool that allows living people to communicate with ghosts. Although the Scholomance Academy does not produce anything, we have priceless knowledge. Barov quickly accumulated a huge amount of wealth, and we also used it to experiment
The theory of magic."
After hearing this, Robbie suddenly realized that the Barov family is a huge and mysterious family. The rise of this family has always been a mystery. It turns out that it is related to the mysterious ghost space underground.
"You know, the progress of Dalaran's magic relies on the results of our magic research. We cultivate agents in Dalaran to ensure that magic theories are sent to Dalaran for experimentation without any doubt. Moreover, we do not recommend that magic be transferred to Dalaran for experiments.
The mages taught to Dalaran are all for humanity, and Kel'Thuzad is the last agent."
Speaking of this, Dean Gading said happily:
"Kel'Thuzad's excellence is beyond imagination. At that time, we detected abnormal magic fluctuations in Northrend, hiding unimaginable evil. Kel'Thuzad ignored his own safety and went to investigate alone, and successfully stole the Burning Legion reward.
The knowledge given to Ner'zhul. He shared this precious knowledge with us, so we ghosts studied the undead body, and we no longer have to rely on Dalaran for experiments."
After hearing this, Robbie was secretly surprised. No wonder Kel'Thuzad dared to challenge Medivh. Although he knew the weakness of the magic-stealing dragon, when the two of them fought with magic from a distance, Kel'Thuzad was not at a disadvantage.
It turns out that there is a powerful magic research organization behind him.
It's no wonder that the Curse Sect is so mysterious and full of talented people, many of whom are ghosts who have regained their physical bodies.
"The Lich King Arthas entrusted us to help research the method of transforming from undead to humans." Dean Gardin said ostentatiously: "To a certain extent, we have achieved success."
"Successful?" Robbie asked in surprise.
Dean Gading smiled slightly and explained unhurriedly:
"The difference between humans and the undead is that humans can exchange materials with the outside world, eat, digest, absorb, and excrete, while the bodies of the undead cannot do this. The undead eating meat only replenishes the magic power in the body and cannot replace decay.
body, no amount of preservatives will be of any use.
"Our Scholomance Academy has already solved this problem long ago."
After that, Dean Gading opened a stone door.
This is a huge space, with no edges visible at a glance. At the top of the space, there are countless magic gems, large or small, suspended, simulating the starry sky of Azeroth. On the ground are clusters of green bonfires, dotted all over the place.
Around these bonfires, many undead people were sitting.
Robbie noticed that the green flame had no temperature, and the undead bodies surrounding the flame were completely normal, with no signs of decay, and were almost indistinguishable from humans.
"These flames are our invention, allowing our bodies to maintain communication with the outside world. In a sense, we are already human beings and can survive forever. The only problem now is to shrink the flames and move them into
inside the body, and this flame cannot come into contact with sunlight."
After a pause, Dean Gading said regretfully:
"It's just that we can't reproduce, so it can't be called real life, but we got inspiration from plague dragon eggs. Plague dragon eggs can hatch plague young meat, and a few of them are particularly strange and have the same characteristics as other dragons.
Healthy dragon scales and the ability to produce plague dragon eggs. In the near future, we will definitely be able to reproduce the next generation."
This is really an amazing discovery. For some reason, Robbie always feels familiar.
Dean Gardin led Robbie through the fire, and occasionally greeted the familiar undead beside the fire. Most of the names were unfamiliar. In Dalaran, the magicians who are buried in the laboratory usually have little reputation, even if
There are major magical discoveries that are unknown, but those who apply them shine brightly.
Archmage Antonidas, Jaina, Khadgar, etc. all belong to the application school of magic, and generally require the silent support of one or more teams to achieve the great achievements of an archmage.
But Robbie still heard a familiar name.
"Grand Mage Arugao, how is the research progress on werewolves?" Dean Gading greeted a mage in black robes beside the fire.
Archmage Arugao straightened his unkempt hair: "Soon, soon, I will end the werewolf's madness and make the werewolf's curse history."
A group of silently dedicated people, whose names are unknown to the living, are influencing the development of history, which is very admirable.
Dean Gardin continued:
"In addition to mage research, we also take in outstanding ghosts in other fields, such as talents in art, blacksmithing, herbal medicine, engineering, etc. Your problem will be solved soon, and I will introduce you to the most important person in the history of Lordaeron.
Great politicians, counselors, and wise men. In the political field, no living person can match their wisdom."
Robbie was puzzled by Tyrande's refusal to withdraw. He couldn't understand why Tyrande was so desperate. Robbie's knowledge and resourcefulness were still insufficient, and he could not see through the truth behind this.
Fortunately, I had the help of Dean Latin, and I was fortunate to have the help of the greatest conspirators and wise men in the history of Lordaeron.
Beside a green bonfire, Robbie saw a group of ghosts wearing white robes. Unlike the ghost mages who studied magic, they did not need the bodies of the undead.
Robbie did not know the people here. They were all unknown during their lifetimes. Real wise men understand the burden that fame brings to future generations, and they are unwilling to leave their names in history.
Robbie described recent events in great detail, including Medivh and his son becoming Eternal Flesh, the deaths and replacements of Thrall and others, Stormwind's removal of Varian, the battle between the Forsaken and Karazhan, etc., as much as possible.
detailed.
The green bonfire crackled, but otherwise the scene was quiet, and the ghost counselors were communicating in their own way.
Soon, the ghost who looked like the leader made a voice:
"Exclude all possibilities, no matter how scary or unbelievable it is, it must be the truth..." (To be continued)
