Chapter 1503 The Desperate Sun King
The island of Quel'Danas, where the Sunwell is located, was once the absolute powerhouse of the high elves, but now it seems quite bleak.
There is nothing that can be done about it. After the collapse of the Sun Chaser family and the Silver Moon Council, which represented the supremacy of magic, the Ranger Faction is now in power.
Whether it is Sylvanas as Queen, the other three Windrunner sisters, Lor'themar and Halduron, they are all rangers.
Although the Ranger Faction would not suppress the Magic Faction, it would not be possible if they were to put mages first and all resources tilted toward mages as they did in the Quel'Thalas era.
As a result, all the factions were happy, and only the mage faction felt resentful.
But what can be done? Nowadays, it is difficult to find even Huiyue in the country, not to mention the powerful Xiri.
When the Allied forces achieved a complete victory in the outer realm and the news came that the former Prince Kael'thas was promoted to the Sun rank, the magic sect in the Sin'dorei was filled with joy, and they all demanded the return of His Royal Highness.
Anyone with a discerning eye knows that anyone can return, but not the Sun Chaser Wang family. Where else would this put Queen Sylvanas?
Kael'thas was also sensible and publicly stated: "I am guilty! If such a serious crime as betraying the country can be easily forgiven, then anyone can commit treason. If the motherland needs it, I will rush back to help the battle as soon as possible, but I will never return to the Sin'dorei. This has nothing to do with His Majesty Windrunner, it is purely my personal atonement."
Rather than return, Kael'thas chose to rejoin the Kirin Tor Council in Dalaran. With the support of Duke and Gianna, he was successfully elected as Speaker by unanimous vote. Duke and Jaina, as well as Ronin, who was still missing, were named as senators and maintained their influence in Dalaran.
Apart from the disappointment of the Sin'dorei mages, it can be said that this is the best outcome for everyone.
On May 10, a mysterious figure arrived unexpectedly.
His appearance, his extremely typical clothes and staff, evoked the dusty memories of many mages. After a slight hesitation, countless mages who were supposed to be worthy knelt down on one knee.
"My king..."
One, two... ten... a hundred, when the entire Sunwell garrison knelt down in front of this mysterious man, he opened his arms - a pair of arms that had lost all moisture. , withered arms.
When his hood was blown off by the wind, a wrinkled face was revealed, as well as a pair of soul fires from the netherworld that replaced his pupils.
right!
He is clearly the former Sun King Anastrian Sunstrider.
"My subjects! I - Anastrian is back!" The Sun King looked up to the sky and roared.
What responded to him was cheers like a tsunami!
"Long live my king!"
After appeasing the blood elves who had re-loyed to him, no, they should be considered high elves now, the Sun King came to a secret chamber and bowed to the two mysterious men wrapped in cloaks.
"My lords, do you see this? My subjects are still loyal, and the Sunwell is still under my control. Now, will the Legion accept my terms?"
"Giggle!" It was a crisp and charming laugh.
If the Sun King was not a forgotten person, maybe he would still be filled with emotions even though he was still an old man thousands of years old.
The two mysterious people took off their hoods, and they were revealed to be the Eredar Twins.
High-level warlock Oreses smiled charmingly: "Lord Kil'jaeden will never forget your contribution."
Queen Saloras said: "He will never be stingy with rewards for the strong men who are loyal to the legion."
"As long as Lord Kil'jaeden succeeds in using the power of the Sunwell to come."
"He can promise on behalf of the Legion not to completely destroy Azeroth. After getting what the Legion wants, you will be the King of Azeroth."
"If there is no problem..."
"Then sign this soul contract in triplicate!"
"I'll leave one for you, we'll take one back to the Twisting Nether and archive it, and the other will be given to Lord Kil'jaeden for review."
"Sign, and you will become a member of the glorious Burning Legion. I promise to give you the treatment of an intermediate void lord directly."
The voices of the Geminis were full of temptation, and the most important thing was still the will of the Sun King himself.
He hesitated for a moment, then bit the toothpick, and "swish, swish, swish" were left on the three soul contracts, which also symbolized the sinking of his soul. He could clearly feel that as he signed his name, part of his soul was forcibly divided and flew into the distant void, becoming Kil'jaeden's biggest bargaining chip to control him.
This is the price!
Anastrian's betrayal was both accidental and inevitable.
Very different from the forgotten people in history. Originally, Queen Xi was the boss in history and turned the city of Lordaeron into the Undercity. In the entire continent of Lordaeron, except for Gilneas and Eagle's Nest Mountain, there is no longer any alliance country in the standard sense.
Because of Cho'gall's instigation and the escalation of various conflicts, the alliance and the Horde were more forced to join hands due to the situation, rather than working together as closely as they did in this life.
In constant local and large-scale conflicts, the Forgotten, who were originally at odds with the Alliance, were able to kill a large number of humans and obtain additional soldiers.
The forgotten people in this life will be miserable.
After the Sun King refused to accept the control of the Lich King and became independent, the city of Lordaeron was quickly broken by the Alliance army gathered by Duke. The Undercity was destroyed before it was officially established. In great misery, he was driven across the sea and hid in Winterspring Valley.
Winterspring isn't a good place either.
There are a large number of blue dragons there, as well as the two-headed chimeras, who are extremely ferocious guys.
After finally joining the tribe, he originally wanted to use the banner of the tribe to check and balance the alliance. Who knew that under Duke's suppression, the tribe was basically like a younger brother. And Thrall regarded him and his Silver Moon Council more as thugs.
The most disturbing thing is that he used it as a stepping stone to join the tribe - the resurrected Orgrim simply set up a new mountain in the Forsaken, pulling away all the death knights and warriors of orc origin, and even more closely Rally around the orcs instead of obeying him, the King of the Forsaken.
The tribe signed an alliance with the Alliance, and the Forsaken could not find supplies of soldiers. The corpses of Alliance soldiers were not transformed, and no one in the tribe except the orcs cared about the Sun King. Even if the orcs became death knights or warriors, they still wouldn't listen to him.
In fact, the entire Forsaken race was driven to a dead end.
After defeating Silithus and then the Outlands, apart from obtaining a bunch of equipment that was not considered Tai Chi, the loss of manpower was the most heartbreaking thing for the Sun King. The Silver Moon Council that had been the Forsaken with him had ceased to exist in name only, with only three or two kittens left.
If the arrogant Sun King wants to regain his glory and become the overlord of a party, he really can't think of any good way.
In desperation, he thought of the Burning Legion.
