Chapter 895 14. Alunes. Guardian (Part 1) - Adding updates for the FreeNight brothers [620]
Dalaran is a magical organization established by the Human Empire more than 2,000 years ago, but its predecessor, the Council of Tirisfal, has a much longer history.
The magic knowledge of human civilization is taught by the high elves, and the magic knowledge of the high elves is inherited from the upper elf magicians of the elven empire 10,000 years ago, but the ephemeral thinking of human beings has influenced the teaching of the high elves In the tradition of magic, human beings have completely broken the elegant magic system of the high elves with extremely creative thinking and bold actions, and thus created the eclectic spellcasting forms of human mages.
It can be said that although the three are in the same line, the high elves, high elves and humans are completely three different magic systems.
And an organization with a long history will inevitably experience many, many strange things, and in the experience given by time, it will always get this kind of strange thing. For Dalaran now, a very important task is to take good care of it. Those dangerous items left by the predecessors, don't let them fall into the hands of guys with ulterior motives.
Frankly speaking, this is not an easy job.
"hum"
The blue portal opened on the edge of Coldara Island off the coast of the Borean Tundra. The two archmages stepped out of the portal. The cold breath that hit their faces made Jaina and Ronin immediately stretch their mana shields. It was better, and Jindy Sparks and Daphne Marin who followed them were wearing thick furs.
The magic power of the high-ranking mage is not as abundant as that of the archmage, and the two of them can't support the magic shield for a long time in the magic power node monitored by the blue dragon, so they can only use the oldest way to keep out the cold.
Looking at the icy and snowy scene in front of him, Luo Ning couldn't help but sigh:
"It's strange that blue dragons, who are always proud, would seek help from mortals... Also, I've been thinking about a question, Jaina, you have to be honest, I don't believe there is no other in Dalaran that can suppress Mage of Aluneth, why me?"
"Of course, there are plenty of talented people in Dalaran."
Jaina said something in a mocking tone, and then walked forward while explaining to Ronin:
"However, Archmage Modera rejected the task on the grounds that she was unwell. She is indeed quite old. Recently, she is even considering resigning from the Council of Six and focusing more on the internal affairs of the Kirin Tor. Both Mage Vargoth and Archmage Xylem said they are not suitable to deal with blue dragons... well, I mean, they don't want to get involved in such troublesome things, you know, mages are all A bunch of weird guys."
Jaina, who is the Archmage and Her Majesty the Queen, rubbed her forehead and said to the silent Ronin:
"You are outside the system of Dalaran. You may not be very aware of the recent changes in this city. After the establishment of the new Dalaran, the Council of Six has always been a model of 4 mages + 2 warlocks. To ensure that mages and warlocks can coexist in the same city, let alone the warlocks, Master Kel'Thuzad can suppress the dark ambitions of those warlocks, and he also nominated the orc warlock Jolin Deadeye to be another member of parliament, of course , that is for political considerations.”
"However, our mages have always been in a state of inadequacy. Modera, Cresim, and Archmage Anslem, who just resigned last month, are all figures from the previous era. They are all very old. Things are always a little bit out of control, and although the newly appointed Archmage Vargos is in his prime, as I said, he has a weird personality and is not very willing to take over these tedious affairs."
Jaina looked at the giant blue magic hub tower standing between the snow-capped mountains in the distance, she said softly:
"The Kirin Tor is currently discussing a plan to replace a new member of parliament. Archmage Modera and Archmage Cresim plan to step down and focus on training new mages. As for the positions they vacated, we plan to re- Invite His Majesty Kael'thas back to Dalaran, and..."
Jaina turned to look at Ronin:
"you!"
"What?"
Ronin's eyes widened:
"You want me to be a councilor? Forget it, I don't want to get involved in these things! I heard what you said, and I think Dalaran has started to get involved in political affairs again. I don't want to fight with those nobles and kings. We deal with them, so let me go, you can find an orc, or a tauren, or a night elf to be the archmage councilor."
Dragon mage Luo Ning raised his head, he keenly saw a blue dragon flying towards them, so he took the initiative to stop the conversation:
"I'm not going! Don't try to persuade me, Jaina."
"dragon!"
The little dwarf Jindy who was following behind the mentor also saw the beautiful young dragon flying towards them with a telescope, and she shouted loudly:
"Mentor! A dragon is coming!"
"Well, don't make such a fuss, Jindy."
Jaina quieted her nervous apprentice, adjusted her robes, and said:
"This is the Magic Hub, the holy land of the Blue Dragon Legion. Isn't it normal for dragons to appear here?"
Miss Marin beside Jin Di was also a little nervous. Although they are high-level mages in Dalaran, not every high-level mage is well-informed. For ordinary people, the fear of dragons is always engraved on the In his bones, even if it flies, it is just a young dragon that has just grown up.
"wow"
In the light of transfiguration, the little star wearing a blue dress and a magic sword made of pure ice appeared in front of the two archmages. She looked at the two powerful mortals in front of her with scrutiny. , After a while, Little Xingxing said to Jaina and Ronin in front of him with the grace that a dragon should have:
"You're here at last... No time for small talk, we have to sort this out before the traveling Lord of Magic finds his palace cluttered with unruly arcane elements!"
"Um?"
Jaina and Ronin looked at each other, and Her Majesty the Queen asked:
"Ms. Dragon, what do you mean, the King of Magic is not here?"
"Of course, if the mighty Lord Malygos is here, how could the crazy elements cause such a big thing!"
The proud little Xingxing, the blue dragon princess, answered angrily:
"That is an item that your mage ancestors deposited with us, so you must take responsibility! Also, call me Miss, I am still very young."
There is a reason for Miss Stellagosa's anger. She was living a carefree and happy life in Winterspring Valley with her good friend Harleen. She played with the young dragons every day and occasionally went to the city of goblins. Walking around, I lived a very unrestrained life. As a result, within a few months, bad news came from the Magic Hub. A magic item placed in the Blue Dragon Treasure was out of control because of the magic power tide, and the entire Magic Hub was destroyed. Hub made a mess.
Malygos, the king of magic who has been in the magic hub for more than 10,000 years, has traveled abroad, and no one can contact the king of magic. In addition, the blue dragon army that monitors the tide of magic power in the world is really hard to tell, so Haha Erlin and Little Xingxing had no choice but to end their happy vacation and return to the Magic Hub to preside over the overall situation.
But it wasn't until they came back that they realized that the arcane element called Aluneth couldn't be handled by their two blue dragons who were not good at fighting. That guy was very powerful, and had his own wisdom and thinking. Poor dragon man, after several attempts to capture failed, Harleen had to protest strongly to Dalaran!
The treasure you keep here has gone mad... Come and take it away! The farther you take the better!
"Come with me!"
Little Xingxing turned back into the form of a dragon. She twisted her beautiful and slender neck and said to the mages behind her:
"Come up, I'll take you to the inside of the Nexus, that little dwarf, I saw the pincers in your hand, don't try to snap off my beautiful scales, or I'll throw you into the magic cage! Be careful , I've just been scaled and waxed, um...maybe a little slippery."
Jindi Huohua put the pliers back into his storage pocket with an embarrassing look on his face when he was called out. The four mages sat behind little Xingxing, grasping the bone spur on the blue dragon's back. Between the flapping of their wings, the four of them took off in the wind and flew towards the distant Magic Shuttle Tower at a speed close to the speed of sound.
The little dwarf who flew on the dragon for the first time wrapped her fur tightly, her face was full of joyful smiles, and the little star asked in a magic secret while flying:
"By the way, what is the origin of that damn staff that you store here? How did you seal the arcane element in the staff? It's hard for me to imagine such a powerful free element. How did it happen."
"Oh? This question should be clearer to the blue dragon than to us, right?"
Luo Ning asked curiously:
"Because it was the Blue Dragon Legion who first discovered Aluneth. The creation of the Guardian's Staff is already a later stage... How can you not know these stories?"
"Uh, I'm an alien blue dragon!"
Little Xingxing said with some embarrassment:
"My ancestral home is not here. In short, let's talk about that story. If the story is exciting enough, I can allow you to take some more things from the treasure house~"
"All right."
Jaina smiled. She had indeed heard the news that some blue dragons had returned to the Nexus a few years ago. The blue dragon lady with a good personality in front of her was probably one of those blue dragons. In the wind, Jaina cleared her throat and began to tell the story of Aluneth and the Staff of the Warden.
"The arcane element Aluneth is not a creature of Azeroth, it lives in the arcane plane, which is a place that is still very mysterious, and the blue dragons like to explore by nature, love to solve the mysteries in the stars, Therefore, when they accidentally discovered Aluneth, an arcane element with its own wisdom, the blue dragons were very happy. They even tried to summon Aluneth to the present world... Well, it is in the magic hub! That should be a few It happened thousands of years ago."
"It is said that Aluneth has a weird personality. As soon as he came to Azeroth, he began to destroy the treasures and classics treasured by the blue dragons, but the blue dragons were not angry, because an arcane element with its own personality made them feel To the Mystery Among the Stars, which pleased them, they performed many harmless experiments on Aluneth, and when their curiosity was satisfied, the blue dragons sent Aluneth back to its world... "
Gianna says:
"The story should have ended here... However, during the heyday of the night elf empire, a highborne mage named Metri encountered a mysterious blue dragon. According to rumors, it was a beautiful dragon. In short, after a period of time, Maitri got the knowledge about Aluneth and the arcane plane from the blue dragon, and Maitri began to pursue the secrets of Aluneth."
"All the magic systems in the world today are actually based on the scrolls left by Maitri. From this, we can see Maitri's powerful talent. He quickly found Aluneth, but he did not He didn't enslave it, because Alunes has free will, and it is difficult to be enslaved, so Meteri reached an agreement with Alunes, and he drew some weak power from Alunes to strengthen his spells."
"But even these extremely weak and insignificant powers in the eyes of arcane elements have made Maitri one of the most powerful spellcasters in the Elven Empire. There are rumors that he can even rival Queen Azshara... .”
"Then what?"
The little star was flying while listening to the story. She urged Jaina to continue telling the story, and the queen satisfied Miss Blue Dragon's request:
"In the Battle of the Ancients, most of the Highborne followed their queen and stood on the side of the Burning Legion, but Maitri didn't. He knew the evil of the devil, so he stood on the side of the rebels, and in that cruel In the flames of war, Maitri frequently used the power of Aluneth, and soon, a close fit was formed between him and the arcane elements."
"In one battle, the legion led by Maitri was ambushed by demons, but the spellcaster sent thousands of people safely to another place with just a wave of his hand. His power seems to us like a god. The same, and in Maitri's scroll, he also left a sentence: The real greatness of the mage lies in the fact that we can destroy the enemy and save lives. And the real wisdom lies in knowing when to destroy, When to save."
"Yes, Master Metri is not only an outstanding spellcaster, he is also a hermit with superhuman character."
Ronin also interjected:
"Some of his ideas are still influencing the mages of Azeroth to this day."
"But Aluneth's power is also affecting Maitri... After the War of the Ancients, he could have been a hero, but the night elves banned the use of arcane power, and Maitri has a kind of feeling about it. Weird fear, thinking that he could no longer borrow the power of Aluneth, he began to doubt his excellent spellcasting skills, although it was not necessary, but in the end, Maitri left Mount Hyjal and became a A hermit whose whereabouts are unknown."
Jaina said with some emotion:
"Master Metri was so obsessed with using Aluneth's power that he even forgot that he was also a powerful spellcaster. This is a lesson his story left us."
Speaking of this, the little star flapped its wings and landed in the middle of the giant tower of the magic hub. The mages jumped into the ground. Jaina brushed her blond hair. She looked back at the asteroid that had turned into a human form. She said with a smile:
"The story of Aluneth and the Staff of the Guardian is not over yet, do you still want to hear it?"
Little Xingxing winked at this beautiful human female, and she said softly:
"It's still some way from inside the Nexus, so, I guess, I can get to the end of this story...so go ahead ~ my friend Jaina."
