Chapter 548 The Traveler's Big Move
That's right!
In the original history, Lothar would die. The cause of death was precisely his most trusted Excalibur!
This divine sword is not widely recognized in the alliance as the king's sword inherited from Emperor Thoradin.
Or in other words, the "King's Sword" proclaimed to the outside world is just a cover to cover up the true identity of Excalibur.
About 25,000 years ago, the Excalibur [Dark Judge] was split into two pieces after the betrayal of the Titan God of War Sargeras, namely [Tisharaki] in the hands of the Avenger Aggramar and Destroyer. [Gory Bloor] in the hands of *Sargeras.
When Sargeras the Destroyer tried every means to obtain [Tisharaki], and then merged it into [Golthrak] to summon [Dark Judge] to destroy the Pantheon, the father of all gods * Aman'Thul proposed to forge a powerful A weapon against Gorthrak.
However, this will be extremely difficult.
The Dark Judge is a combination of good and evil, so what should the newly forged weapon be? Totally bright and totally good.
Gugneth the Rumbling Thunder found the best casting material in the universe; Khazgoros the Blacksmith began to forge this mighty weapon, an Excalibur; Norgannon the Dreamweaver exhausted almost all his strength Enchanting; Avenger* Aggramar infused the noble soul into this sword, and this sword is called [Escani* Punisher].
When the sword was about to be completed, things changed.
Sargeras the Destroyer led the Burning Legion to attack the Pantheon, and the gods finally completed the weapon with all their might. The newly completed weapon was ejected from the Pantheon due to the power of the interruption, and it was left in the newly created Azeroth.
Although the gods wanted to find the sword, because of the Burning Legion, they had to deal with the enemy in front of them first.
After a long time, this matter was gradually forgotten.
More than 20,000 years later, three travelers found this weapon in an abandoned cave. They were Ryan Wrynn, Guardian Medivh and Anduin Lothar.
Only those with the most noble personality can hold this sword. Fortunately, one of these three people has him, and he is: Anduin Lothar.
This is the difference from the history that Duke is familiar with - the moment the sword recognized Lothar as its master, it suddenly fused with the king's sword that Lothar carried and inherited from his ancestors.
Most of the time, what is displayed in front of others is still the seemingly thin, gorgeously crafted one-handed sword. But when Lothar needs to fight, or when his mind moves, the sword will quickly transform in a golden light. It turned into a huge two-handed wide-edged sword, and the sacred aura attached to it almost slashed when encountering evil.
Guardian* Medivh gave this sword a name: Quel'Zaram (Quel'Zaram), which means noble sword in Salas.
This sword woke up from a 25,000-year slumber, and later Anduin Lothar used this sword to enter Karazhan. Fortunately, Duke was also briefly recognized by this sword , used this sword to stab Medivh who was possessed by Sargeras, and drove Sargeras' soul into the bottomless abyss.
However, this sword has a fatal weakness - it cannot deal with noble people. When the bearer uses him against a noble person, he loses his powers.
No one thought that the orc leader who led the ferocious orc army and set off a bloody massacre on the continent of Azeroth—the Great Chief Orgrim would be a noble person.
That's right, although Orgrim has caused countless killings, the starting point of all his actions is for the continuation of his own race. As a result, he was directly judged by Quel'Zalam as a noble person and refused to release the invincible divine power.
This happened at the most critical time of the fierce battle between Lothar and Orgrim!
It can be said that success is also noble, and failure is also noble.
Lothar was able to master [Quelzalam] because of his noble character. He took the lead in fighting on the Silverpine Forest battlefield, and he was invincible. Except for Grom* Hellscream who is holding 【Goreroar】, no one is his opponent at all.
Born during the duel with Orgrim, [Quelzalam] was downgraded to Fantie, but was smashed by Orgrim's semi-artifact [Doom Hammer].
This hammer not only smashed the shape of [Quelzaram], but also hit Lothar's chest.
Lothar died unjustly because of this hammer.
In life, nine out of ten unsatisfactory things happen.
The longer I live, the more I feel that I have missed too many things and left too many regrets.
After crossing, Duke would feel that he could not accept any familiar faces around him disappearing forever, let alone Anduin Lothar, Duke's most respected hero.
From being penniless to Duke's strong rise, Ryan and Anduin have given Duke too much support. Never lagging behind, I can do my best and never leave a point.
Even if Ryan did not die because of Duke's efforts in this life, Anduin didn't need to kneel and lick King Terenas to seek a chance of life for Varian who lost his father, let alone Anduin who fought alone in the alliance's most important position. The glorious record on the front line does not detract from Anduin's noble character.
Since becoming the commander of the alliance, Anduin has never deliberately favored the army of any country in any military operation.
Those who can go up, those who can't go down.
Even though Terenas hinted many times that he hoped that Lordaeron's army could get better missions, Anduin never paid attention to it.
It is his fairness and impartiality that set a good example for the entire league, making it possible to have a truly equal atmosphere within the league.
Therefore, no matter from which point of view, Duke has no reason to let Anduin die at the hands of Orgrim.
Here comes the problem.
If they want to seize the last chance to weaken the tribe, they can only take advantage of the present. The practice of massacring the tribe is obviously dishonorable to most knights, and it is bound to conflict with the upright Anduin and others.
If that nobility is tarnished, then Anduin Lothar will no longer be that Anduin Lothar.
On the other hand, since Duke chose to save Anduin's life, even if he was saved with Lothar's style, when the bastard Orgrim chose to surrender for the continuation of the orcs, Anduin would never Allow Duke to kill Orgrim under the black hands.
Let so many orcs survive by absorbing the finances of the alliance countries, and after more than ten years, they shouted the classic "orcs will never be slaves!"
This makes Duke very upset!
How can we get the best of both worlds?
Duke first used the hatred of the people to severely attack the hearts of Anduin and Ryan, and then minimized their psychological bottom line in the name of Emperor Thoradin, and finally threw out his ultimate move against the orcs...
