Azeroth Trail of Light

Dick sat in the room alone. He brought a chair and sat by the window, watching Theramore, who was gradually darkening outside the window, in a daze. The ebony pipe was in his hand, Alsis With the scepter on hand, it can be seen that he is also under pressure in his heart, but this scene is much better than the worst estimated by others.

At least he didn't just leave.

After the meeting, many people tried to see him or probe his voice, but they were all turned away by Liadrin, who was at the door, using "Dick’s health" as an excuse, including the worried little prince Anduin. , His identity determines that he is very precocious, and he can already vaguely realize what his mentor has done.

"Master, you should at least eat something..."

Moam sneaked into the room with a nutritious dinner from outside the room. This obsidian destroyer has become the gardener of Theramore court as he wishes, taking care of all kinds of things every day. Flowers and grasses, but after Dick became this "weak and windy" appearance, Moam became Dick's "human shield" again.

It can absorb and counterattack everything that will not instantly destroy its body. The magic of any system determines that this strangely speaking obsidian destroyer will be the best human shield.

Dick glanced at the food and shook his head. The Paladin really had no appetite now. He picked up the fresh juice and turned to ask.

"Moam, how is the situation with those envoys now?"

In the slightly dimly lit room, the eyes under the Obsidian Destroyer’s mask were green and looked a little weird. This smart guy organized the language and quickly reported back.

"Kul Tiras, the orcs, and the trolls have agreed to an agreement to send troops. The prince of Stormwind, and your disciple Anduin also absolutely supports the sending of troops. Princess Laila went back to Ironforge. There is news that Magni The king may come in person, the night elves' Moon Temple also has news, and finally Quel'Thalas...the attitude of those elves is very strange, they did not agree or object."

"Ok."

Dick nodded and stopped talking.

Moam probably saw the master’s boredom. It remembered the instructions of Mister Leah before entering the room, so he sniffed again and said,

"Actually, I don’t think you need to worry about this, Master. Mortal lives are too short. Their starting point for thinking about problems is always shallow. Although I have not been in the human world for a long time, I see When it comes to their shortcomings, you may not know that, in the eyes of our Titan creations, the curse of flesh and blood has corroded their bodies and liberated their will, but too active thoughts are not a good thing, especially in the absence of a strong As the leader, their overall strength was greatly weakened."

Moam took a peek at his master, and when he saw his pensive appearance, he breathed a sigh of relief and continued,

"It's not that they can't see the threats of the undead, but subconsciously ran them behind their heads. This is actually an escape from our point of view. As you know, Titan creation never escapes problems, even though I also admit that humans There are heroes with integrity like those knights, but in our opinion,"

Moam’s voice increased by two degrees,

"They who have forgotten their mission are always failed creations! They don't realize that in this mysterious world, they are actually the weaker, and the number is their advantage, but unfortunately, after losing unity and unified will, They will inevitably fall to the corner of the world stage, and even need a charge from the Earthen Legion, the mortal army will fall apart, they are too weak."

The corner of Dick’s eyes jumped, he instinctively wanted to refute Moam’s words, because he was also a human, but after careful consideration, he found that this obsidian destroyer was like a wise man at this moment, despite his voice Still as funny as before.

"So... what do you want to say, Moam?"

Dick leaned on the chair and asked curiously, "Someone told you these things, right?"

The Obsidian Destroyer shrugged, it moved its wings behind it, and said with regret,

"Actually, what I want to say is, Master, you have never set your identity right. You have never realized that after gaining the authority of the Titan, you are no longer an ordinary human being, and you are always at a higher level. Looking at the problem from a perspective, it is difficult to integrate into the group of ordinary people. This kind of estrangement and separation is inevitable. Even if there is no such thing, you will slowly fade out of the mortal world."

"After all, for you now, for the tricky things you are facing now, everything in the dunya is just a shackle, not a blessing."

The Obsidian Destroyer slowly picked up the lunch that hadn't moved at all, and when he left the room, he added,

"Uh, Lord Elonaia asked me to relay these words to you. She said she wanted to tell you these things a long time ago, but this situation may be more suitable now. She also said that you must learn to adapt. Look at the world with a higher perspective, because in the second half of your life, you are destined to deal with things that are hidden from the appearance of the world."

Moam left, and Dick leaned back on his chair with the juice. He had never considered this matter from this perspective, but he had to admit that Elonaya, this special Titan creation, made sense. .

In the face of the Northern Expedition and the non-cooperation of various countries, Dick seemed to have lost his previous interest in switching between various forces, because he did have countless troubles to deal with.

The troubles of Kel'Thuzad, Yogg-Saron, Ulduar, and the will of Odin, who has just appeared on behalf of Valarjar, has been hidden behind the scenes of N'Zoth and his evil and treacherous servants, gradually emerging from the surface. Pandaria, the Misty Continent, and so on.

It’s not that the mortal kingdom cannot understand how difficult it is to deal with these heady issues, but just as Moam said, the active will of mortals determines that they will have the selfish idea of ​​"the sky is falling, and the tall man will bear it". It has nothing to do with justice and evil, but just human nature, and Dick, in a sense, he is now a "tall man."

After all, in the final analysis, anything that is ignorant of the ancient gods can't be handled by mortals.

At least every time you can't wait until disaster is approaching, Dick will stand up and lead the world forces that are united under pressure to fight against it, right? After taking over the burden of reversing the world 4 years ago, Dick understood that this kind of passive defense would only bring down himself and the world in the end, and he had to attack more actively!

Before the trouble comes, try to eliminate it, but this road is destined to be lonely. Now, Dick has realized this kind of loneliness. When your footsteps are faster than most of your companions, loneliness is also The irrepressible is always with me.

This may also be the reason why those who were once called "Guardians" will eventually become withdrawn.

Aegwynn was like this, so was Medivh, and now it was Dick's turn.

But before Dick fully figured out these troublesome things, the unexpected visitor arrived. It was a light of teleportation like a fire, when Kael'thas’ handsome face appeared in Dick’s room. At that moment, the three watchmen jumped out of the shadows, and Dick waved them away.

Kael'thas couldn't see the joy or anger on his face, but Dick could probably guess why he was here.

Quel'Thalas’ Sun King’s magical skills need not be doubted at all, and this kind of fixed-point teleportation is as simple as eating and drinking water for him.

After Kael'thas stood still, the Sun King waved his hand as well. A woman in a black hood walked out from another beam of light and stood behind Kael'thas.

"Lannathor, you go outside to be on guard, and don't let anyone approach until I finish talking with Knight Dick!"

"Yes, Your Majesty!"

The archmage of the Sin'dorei elves walked out of the room. Kael'thas was relieved. He waved gently, and a chair quietly moved to the opposite side of Dick. The Sun King sat on it. His blood-red robe is graceful and luxurious, coupled with his carefully trimmed hair and face, and finally the elemental phoenix standing on the hilt of the sword, which is indistinguishable from the real bird. At first glance, it looks like a big man.

Dick held the juice and looked at the Sun King sitting in front of him. To be honest, although the two people have not seen each other much in the past few years, they have exchanged letters because of the fact that they have been fighting side by side. They can be regarded as friends. Up.

Before Dick could speak, Kael'thas stretched out two fingers.

"The two things are both very troublesome, and they were both caused by you."

"Ok?"

Dick looked at Kael'thas with an innocent look. The latter sighed and let it lightly in the air. A glass of red magic drink appeared in his hand, and then the Sun King slowly said,

"The first thing is about Syndra. First of all, I have to make a statement. Dick, it's not that I don't want to use my strength to avenge the undead. You should know that my hatred of them is not much weaker than that of the Paladins. It’s that we really can’t draw enough power. Of course, this is related to the second thing. In short, according to the news I bought from the Assassin League, just this afternoon, the night elves in Feralas expanded their defenses. Almost the entire Feralas was surrounded, and they came out in full force. Relying on normal methods, it is already difficult for me to contact Syndra's descendants, even if you give me specific directions!"

Having said this, Kael'thas sighed helplessly, his voice was full of complaints.

"You should at least ventilate with me in advance for this kind of major event, but I can understand your current situation. I can see that you are going crazy by those short-sighted guys, so I won't talk about it for the time being, but I can promise you to send the last standing army of Quel'Thalas, including 1 ranger and nearly 4000 mages to join the Northern Expedition. If necessary, I can even send the Firewing Guard to help, but you have to use one safely. The method, help me contact the descendants of Syndra, if you can, you have to find a way to pick them out of the night elves."

"Is it so serious?"

Dick's brows frowned. "Almost 7,000 years have passed. The grudge between Syndra and Kaldorei should have disappeared long ago?"

"You don't understand, Dick, the descendants of Syndra have different meanings."

Kael'thas simply explained, "I can tell you this, if the fabled upper elf city Ed'Thalas is really hidden in the forest of Feralas, then the night elf's 7000 years of exploration will have Valuable, because Syndra means "hidden whereabouts" in Salas. They were responsible for guarding all her secrets for Queen Azshara in the ancient times. It is no exaggeration to say that the city The contents scared the night elves!"

"You and I know, and they also know that Azshara is not dead yet. The Battle of the Ancients and the Battle of Mount Hyjal have made them terrified. If Azshara reappears, it will be a complete disaster. After the War of the Ancients, although there has never been an official statement, the Syndras made no secret of their contempt for the night elves. You know, the high-level elves have an inexplicable sense of superiority, so I think."

Kael'thas knocked on the cup in his hand and showed a weird smile, "The night elves won't cut off the roots of Syndra's descendants because of this, but obviously, they will not let Syndra general Those taboo knowledge spread all over the world, and I am even more worried about Syndra's return to Azshara's rule, so banning is a good way, believe me, they did it 7000 years ago."

"But it is a pity that Syndra and the Sunstrider had a brotherly alliance back then. My ancestors had made an appointment with them to leave the rule of Kaldorei. However, on the day of departure, Syndra disappeared and he did not keep the appointment. But I will not deviate from the covenant of the Sunstrider. Since his descendants still exist, I am responsible for removing them from the night elves' confinement."

Dick’s expression hasn’t changed much. In addition to being his friend, Kael’thas is also the ruler of Quel'Thalas. He has a way of thinking about problems, but as the prince of a country, he can come and explain himself. This incident has proved that Kael'thas values ​​Dick, which touches the Paladin a little.

The longevity species is indeed much more sensitive than humans on this issue of standing in line. Although Dick has never shown his own background, Kael'thas has keenly sensed Dick’s difference. In the civilized world and When Dick released a conflict between the two parties, he was on Dick's side for the first time.

"The second thing... have you ever heard of a creature... Naaru?"

"Ok?"

"This is the trouble I'm talking about. Someone who only causes trouble for others, he sent a naaru to Quel'Thalas. It is said that there is a group of powerful trackers coming from another world. Save it, so it’s a hot potato. Are you interested in taking it over?"
