Chapter 86: The Isle of Quel'Danas

On the Isle of Quel'Danas, there is one thing that the high elves live on and cherish the most. It is called: the Sunwell! It is the most important source of magic for the high elves!

The Sunwell is a source of powerful magical energy that covers the entire region of Quel'Thalas. It was created by the ancestors of the high elves using water from one of the Wells of Eternity stolen from the Well of Eternity by Illidan Stormrage. made.

About 6,800 years before the opening of the Dark Portal, the Highborne who were exiled by the Night Elves came here. They occupied this place they called Quel'Thalas, and named themselves the High Elves to show their The difference with the night elves! Then, they built this special magic well and began to build their own brilliant magic civilization!

Under the nearly infinite supply of magic power from the Sunwell, the high elves who came to Azeroth have been greatly strengthened, so they are near the north of Quel'Thalas, near Quel'Dana Their main city was built on the island of Si: Silvermoon City.

As their power grew, they enchanted the Forest of Eversong, bathing them in eternal spring. The elf mages built the so-called "runestones" on the border of Quel'Thalas-these huge stones formed a magic shield, allowing the elves' magic to hide behind this magic shield, evading pretenders from outside the world , at the same time, they can also protect the land from invasion.

Except for a high-intensity war with the Amani trolls about 2,800 years ago, the Kingdom of Quel'Thalas has almost never had a major war in the past 3,000 years! As for the war where the orcs attacked Quel'Thalas and dug up the rune stone more than ten years ago, it could only be regarded as a low-intensity local war, and the high elves at that time did not suffer too much loss.

And now, after countless years of peace, Quel'Thalas is finally about to usher in an all-out war involving almost all the high elves!

The enemy of their elves this time is a huge and boundless army of undead without fear of death, and the target of their undead is the most cherished treasure of their high elves: the Sunwell!

Therefore, now on the island of Quel'Danas, countless high elves, elite rangers, royal guards, a large number of lawbreakers, and high-level mages are all waiting in full force! They intend to be here, to give a good look to those undead who dare to peek at their elf treasures!

The current king of the high elves is Anasterian? Sunstrider, and the first king of the high elves, the pioneer Das Rema? Sunstrider is his great-grandfather. Anasterian ascended the throne in the late period of the Troll War, and it was he who signed a contract with the human kingdom of Arathor that was able to defeat the mighty Amani trolls at that time!

But now, the old covenant has long since become dilapidated. When the high elves are facing the natural disaster of the undead, it is finally time for him to swallow the evil he planted! Facing the threat of the undead, their elves can only resist alone, without any help from the alliance! After all, he was the first to tear up the covenant at the beginning!

On the platform of an enchanted tower in the Sunwell Highlands, King Anasterian is discussing the details of defending the Isle of Quel'Danas with his courtiers.

On the platform above this magical tower, apart from King Anasterian on the main seat, all the members of the Silvermoon City Council are sitting below. Most of them are high-level mages. It can be said that Most of the elite combat forces of the high elves have been concentrated on this island!

"Your Majesty, according to the information from the Dragonhawk scouts in Silvermoon City, the death knight and his undead army did not go north to Silvermoon City, but went westward to the Western Temple. The intention is unknown!" A councilor took After publishing the previous information, he began to read it to the king and the rest of the councilors.

"The intelligence also said that Ranger General Sylvanas seems to have received the help of a powerful human mage,

The mage set a fire and burned down the main road leading to Silvermoon City. The continuous fire forced the undead to change their route. This may be the reason why they went to the western temple. "

"Well... I believe you have all felt the magic fluctuations in the south of Eversong Forest. With this level of magic power, it is almost enough to cast a large-scale strategic spell with you! If you are not all here, I will I even thought, did your mage group sneak away to help the little girl of Windrunner's house to release a large-scale rain of flames? Alas...! I can't figure out, when will the short-lived human race appear again? Such a powerful mage?"

Anasterian, who was sitting on the main seat, sighed, and finally shook his head. He was a little confused about this matter! He didn't know why, such a powerful mage suddenly appeared to help the high elves!

This is very unreasonable! You know, the relationship between the high elves and the human alliance of Lordaeron is very tense, especially not long after the end of the second orc war, he Anasterian was the first to pick a prick and took the lead to withdraw from Los Angeles. After the Danron Alliance...

"Tell me, why does this powerful human mage come to help us Quel'Thalas, what does she want from us?"

This is what Anasterian cares about most! Having been a king for almost three thousand years, his political sense is extremely sensitive! So, now, when he saw a human being rushing over to do a great favor, the first thing he thought of was: the person who came was not kind! The other party must hope to get something from the high elves!

"Your Majesty, I may have a different opinion." An old mage of the Silvermoon Council stood up, and after seeing that the king had no objection, he continued to speak.

"After my observation and detection, the fire in the southern part of Eversong Forest can only be unleashed by a master who has refined flame magic at least above the legendary level, and it must take a long time to prepare! But the intelligence said again , the opponent has already completed casting the spell in a very short period of time. If this is the case, then at least the strength of a demigod is required! But as far as I know, the only demigod of human beings seems to be the mysterious mention. The guardian of the Risfa Council——Medivh! But he seems to have been killed by their own people a long time ago! Humans should have no guardians now! So..."

Having said that, the old councilor took a breath, looked around at the other councilors who were discussing privately after hearing his words, and the king who was silent and thoughtful.

"Please continue." Anasterian seemed to have thought of something, and raised his hand, indicating that he could continue.

"So, I doubt it! The little human girl who came to help us in Quel'Thalas, she may not be human at all! Moreover, I believe you should also see what is written in the information, how could there be an eight-year-old girl?" Human demigod mages left and right? This is simply absurd! Impossible!"

Anyway, this old congressman absolutely does not believe that human beings have eight-year-old demigod mages! Their original magic knowledge was taught by the high elves!

The old councilor himself was one of the special envoys to the Kingdom of Thoradin to teach human spells, so when he first saw the information, he thought it must be a bad joke! There is absolutely no way that little girl is a human being!

Although the old congressman also admitted that some human beings' magical attainments are even about to catch up with their high elves, such as Antonidas in Dalaran, the other party's arcane attainments indeed surpassed the high elves. However, that is just a special case! He never believed that an eight-year-old human girl could reach or even exceed this level! If such a thing really happened, wouldn't he have lived in vain for thousands of years?

"So, Your Excellency, do you think that powerful little mage is...?" A young councilor finally asked after discussing with the people around him.

"I believe you all should know that according to records, the giant guardian dragons endowed with powerful and mysterious powers by the Titans can transform into any race at will! Whether they are humans, elves, or dwarves. So , now the true identity of the little human girl who is still staying in Silvermoon City is open to question."

After saying this, the old congressman nodded and sat down. He has finished what he should say, and now he has to rest for a while! After all, he is thousands of years old.

"That's right! If that's the case, then it makes sense! I also know that some ancient dragons are particularly good at fire magic. If the fire was caused by a giant dragon, it wouldn't be so strange!" The young councilor After echoing, the other congressmen also nodded in agreement with this guess.

"Okay! That's the end of this topic! Regardless of whether the other party is a human or a giant dragon, at least, so far, she is here to help us Quel'Thalas resist the undead. This is enough, so don't discuss it anymore! Let's start Let's move on to the next topic."

Anasterian also nodded, roughly agreeing with the old councilor's speculation. Now that the mysterious and powerful mage is here to help the elves, let's talk about it after the war is over! No matter what she is or what she wants, when the time comes, the Kingdom of Quel'Thalas will show enough sincerity to repay this kindness.

"Your Majesty, here is also a report of the high-ranking mage Filundre who stayed in Silvermoon City against the Ranger General Sylvanas, do you want it?" After passing the topic just now, another councilor stood up, and then He was holding a secret letter still covered with a mud-stamped letter in his hand, and he didn't know whether he should read it now.

"Oh! Interesting! Why don't you drive it out and have a look, everyone, let's just listen to it." At this time, it is really rare to hear someone report against the highest officer stationed in Silvermoon City, ah King Nastarian almost laughed angrily!

"Yes! Your Majesty. Uh... the letter said that the Ranger General Cirvanas immediately issued an emergency recruitment without anyone's consent and without any discussion with the remaining officials. order, and..." After opening the letter and seeing the content behind it, the congressman was a little surprised, and then continued to read.

"And at the same time issued a mobilization order for the whole city, she made all the citizens ready for a big retreat...".

"what?!"

"How can this be? Who gave her this right?"

"It's just messing around! Is she going to leave Silvermoon City? Is she crazy?"

"Hey! The little girl from Windrunner's family is really messed up this time! How confused!"

"This……"

"..."

Before King Anasterian had time to express his opinion, the members below started arguing on their own. Some refuted General Ranger's arbitrary overreach, some clamored to send someone to seize her command right away, and even suggested Immediately arrest those who are sent to prison for questioning, of course, there are also some who intend to defend her, but their words of defense seem a little weak.

"..."

King Anasterian didn't say anything, he just half-closed his eyes, half-smile, and let the parliamentarians below quarrel, no one knew what was going on in the king's heart.

"Okay! Shut up! Put this matter on hold for now, and discuss it after the threat of the undead has passed! Next..."

Waving his hand, Anasterian doesn't plan to take any action against Ranger General Sylvanas right now, after all, changing generals just before the battle is a taboo for military strategists!

Moreover, among the high elves in Quel'Thalas, only the little girl from Windrunner's family has been resisting the invasion of the undead since the first gate. Generally speaking, she has done a pretty good job!

Among the high elves in the entire Kingdom of Quel'Thalas, she is probably the only one who knows the most about the undead? Anasterian believed that she probably had a reason why she had to do that, so let's put this matter on hold for now!

"Your Majesty, the next question is about the material reserves. Now on the island of Quel'Danas..." When another congressman in charge of logistics was about to report the details of the material reserves, an intelligence officer hurriedly said from the Running up the tower's spiral staircase at high speed.

"Your Majesty! General Cirvanas Ranger sent Dragonhawk scouts to send urgent information: The undead army has built a bridge of ice on the sea out of thin air. Hundreds of thousands of undead troops have set out from the Western Temple, and they were destroyed in less than an hour. They left Sunstrider Isle, and now they are preparing to go north to Quel'Danas Island, the general wants us to prepare early!"

"..."

"Absurd! Return the Ice Bridge? Damn! Are you a spy? Dare to spread false information? Do you know how far the bay of the Western Temple is from Sunstrider Island? No one can build such a long bridge out of thin air! We Not even the mage group! Not to mention that human prince! Is he still a knight?"

As soon as the intelligence officer finished speaking, after everyone was silent for a while, a grumpy congressman came out and spit on him on the spot!

In the view of this congressman, no one can create a bridge of ice from the bay of the Western Temple that can pass hundreds of thousands of undead! That shouldn't be the power that mortals should have at all!

In fact, not only this grumpy congressman, but also other congressmen either doubted or frowned at the half-kneeling intelligence officer. The news he brought was indeed a bit outrageous!

"Your Majesty, I suggest to interrogate this intelligence officer! He..." The irritable congressman was about to propose to the king, but was interrupted by the king's raised hand.

"Stop arguing! He didn't lie! Because, they have already come!"

King Anasterian suddenly stood up from the high platform of the throne, looking at the beach in the distance with a serious expression! It can be seen clearly from this high tower platform! There, a huge ice bridge suddenly formed on the beach!

Many high-level councilors also noticed the abnormality. They stood up from their positions one by one, their faces full of shock, and they looked at the distant coast with incredible eyes. The sea water there was instantly frozen into solid ice! Unexpectedly, there is really a bridge of ice?

The direction it connects to is obviously Sun Chaser Island! Sea of ​​Undead can really build a bridge of frost from Sunstrider Island to here! In the distance of the bridge, countless undead are rushing along the bridge, they are like black ink, gradually filling the white ice bridge, and then rushing along the bridge to the Isle of Quel'Danas A little bit of blacking in the direction! They are coming soon!

quick! They came here so fast!

Anastari sighed in relief, just as the Dragonhawk Knight had passed the news on their front feet, they came on their back feet! No more time to react! Don't these undead really need to rest?

"Get ready to fight..."
