Chapter 258 Divinity The Fall of Dalaran
The fusion of divinity is already very familiar to Richard. In the spiritual world, Richard began to defeat the consciousness mark on the divine power again and again.
In the spiritual world, the faceless man was killed again and again. Here is a competition of spiritual consciousness. Every time he kills an enemy, his spiritual mark will weaken a little.
Until the enemy will never be resurrected again, then all the consciousness marks can be forcibly erased. Most of the divine power can choose to transform into the same divine power as its own divinity after erasing the consciousness mark, but there are also some special divine powers that cannot be transformed.
Like [space], [time], [death], [life], [nature] and other divine powers cannot be transformed.
These divine powers can condense the corresponding divine domain. Just like possessing the divinity of death, you can master the divine power similar to the [hand of death] of the god of death, which can directly deprive him of his life.
Richard got some death divinity from the lord of hell Mephisto and can use some death power. At the same time, it will also strengthen the spells about the death domain.
Just like the Law Word spell, without divine power, you can only use this spell to bully those who are much weaker than you. This spell requires spell strength and self-resistance to fight.
The spell is also much weaker than other spells of the same level, and divinity can greatly enhance this spell. At the same time, when Richard uses the Law Word to die, he already has some of the killing effects of the God of Death [Hand of Death].
Death divinity is the best way to deal with those ancient evil things and gods that are extremely difficult to kill completely. Why are many ancient evil things and gods sealed instead of killed?
It's very simple. It's not that they don't want to kill, but they really can't kill, or even if they are temporarily killed, they will be resurrected soon, so they can only be sealed.
But after having the power of death, you have the possibility of killing them completely.
The power of death symbolizes the end of all things. Of course, in addition to the power of death, the power of time also has such an effect, but compared with the power of death, the divinity of time is more difficult to obtain.
Richard shattered the consciousness of the Faceless Man once again. The consciousness of the Faceless Man, which was already shaky, was completely shattered after this attack and could no longer be revived. Then Richard's spiritual power wiped it out completely.
Then he integrated the divine power into his body.
After feeling that there was no problem with the divine power, Richard opened his eyes, and the original golden divine light also merged into his body again.
Then Richard waved his hand gently and lifted the mansion spell. The next second, he returned to the forest. Looking at the time, it only took him a few hours to merge the divinity this time.
As his divinity became stronger and stronger, the speed of merging the divinity was also much faster.
Richard took out the map and looked at it. The ruins near Mount Hyrule had been turned around, and there were still some ruins left to go to other continents. In the north of Northrend, there was a fortress left by the Titans, in which an ancient god was imprisoned, but Richard didn't know the exact location.
There was an Angela Bug Temple in the south of Kalimdor. The Titans didn't leave anything in this ruins, but the cage of the ancient god. In addition to these two ruins, there is also an Uldum. Uldum is also guarded by some catmen, so it should be possible to communicate.
But just when Richard was about to go to Uldum, the communication stone he left in the High Elf Kingdom suddenly rang.
"What happened?" Richard asked after opening the communication stone.
"Sir, Dalaran has been breached." Sylvanas' voice came.
"Have Kael'thas and the reinforcements he brought returned?" Richard was not surprised that Dalaran was breached. At this time, there were no reinforcements at all. How could they defend it?
"There is a teleportation stone, and everyone has been withdrawn now." Sylvanas said, "But there are still some casualties, and His Majesty is a little depressed."
"What is the situation in Dalaran now? How did Arthas break through Dalaran?"
"The Archmage Antonidas of Dalaran was killed, and many other mages died. Arthas entered Dalaran through the sewers, and then joined forces with the undead army outside. The Dalaran defenders were caught off guard and the city was broken."
"After breaking through Dalaran, Arthas and Kel'Thuzad used the Book of Medivh together to summon Archimonde the Defiler."
"After being summoned, Archimonde directly destroyed Dalaran and killed Archimonde the Defiler." Sylvanas said.
Dalaran was destroyed again. This place is really unlucky. This is the second time it has been destroyed. It will be bombed again in the future. After Archimonde came to Azeroth, he began to build a portal to summon more demons to come, preparing to flatten all the kingdoms in the eastern continent.
After seeing this situation, Sylvanas asked Richard for help.
After hearing that Archimonde was coming, Richard also knew that the Eastern Kingdom was at a critical moment of life and death. In the current world of Azeroth, no matter whether it was the guardian dragon or other archmages or heroes, no one was Archimonde's opponent.
As long as Archimonde did not get carried away and played steadily, the entire Azeroth would have a high chance of being flattened by him. It was a pity that Archimonde was too careless.
Richard summoned the teleportation aura, and the next second, his figure appeared on the Mage Tower of Silvermoon City.
"Godfather." Seeing Richard's figure, Kael'thas, who was a little dejected, quickly stood up.
"It seems that you haven't lost your fighting spirit yet!" Seeing Kael'thas, Richard nodded slightly.
Kael'thas' biggest problem is immaturity, immaturity in politics, immaturity in self-awareness, and immaturity in awareness of strength.
"Godfather, I disappoint you!" Kael'thas said with his head down.
Richard shook his head slightly and said, "You didn't disappoint me."
"As a king, you first need to be responsible for your people. The High Elf Kingdom needs to recuperate, and at the same time you need to improve your strength as soon as possible."
"As a king, you must have the ability to protect your citizens, either you are strong, or your country is strong, or your allies are strong."
"This world is always the law of the jungle, and interests come first. Weakness is the original sin."
Before the Dark Portal was opened, there were frictions between countries in the world of Azeroth, but it was not a big problem. It's just that now it has completely become a naked law of the jungle.
The Undead Scourge and the Burning Legion will not give you a chance, they will only raise their butcher knives and kill the weak.
"The high elves need to recuperate now, but they can try to form an alliance with the remaining countries on the eastern continent. At least now they have a common enemy, the Burning Legion and the army of the undead." Richard continued.
Lordaeron, the capital of the once powerful human kingdom, has now become the camp of the Burning Legion. In addition to a large number of undead, there are also a large number of demons. The people of the Kingdom of Lordaeron are hiding in remote places in the mountains.
At the same time, members of the Knights of the Silver Hand are also gathering refugees, and have built a temporary camp in the Cathedral of Light's Hope, and have begun to form the Crusader Knights under the leadership of Dathrohan, one of the five knights of the Silver Hand.
On the other side, another Grand Marshal of Lordaeron, Garithos, also used his own reputation and his father's reputation to begin to recruit the remaining human army.
The Scourge and the Burning Legion began to spread throughout the Eastern Kingdom, and more and more cities were broken by the undead and the army of the Burning Legion. Most of the humans in Andorhal and Stratholme have become undead, but there are still some people who hid in the deep mountains and forests to escape.
After a period of search and rescue, the high elves finally reached a population of more than 40,000. At the same time, after rushing to repair, the rune barrier of Eversong Forest has also been restored.
"Sir, we found a lot of human refugees near Eversong Forest. How do we deal with these refugees?" Sylvanas asked.
"Find a piece of unpolluted land in Eversong Forest for them to live temporarily. By the way, send some high elves to maintain order." Richard thought for a while and said.
"Oh, let the navy catch more sea fish during this period. Those refugees will come, and there will definitely not be enough food!"
"Yes, sir!" Sylvanas ordered people to deal with these things.
Most of these human refugees are survivors of Andorhal and Stratholme. Because of Richard's order, these human refugees were arranged in Eversong Forest.
The high elves gathered the nearby human refugees here for management, and then sent some high elves to command them to resume production and build houses. At the same time, there are many soldiers among these refugees.
Sylvanas arranged for Lor'themar to be in charge of these humans, and also to be responsible for clearing the undead in the Eastern Plaguelands and monitoring the Burning Legion of Lordaeron.
The high elves have now all practiced the Knight's Breathing Method. Relying on their own qualifications, the elves have made rapid progress. Because they have strong vitality in their bodies, they can usually condense the seeds of life in just half a month.
During this period, Sylvanas, who has made the fastest progress, has been promoted from a formal knight to an earth knight, and her strength has increased by at least half compared to before. When she practiced to a legendary knight, Li Jue felt that she was at least a high-level legend, and it was not a problem to single-handedly brush Arthas.
In addition to the Knight's Breathing Method, the success rate of the high elves practicing meditation is also extremely high. At the beginning, these remaining high elves were only three or four hundred mages, and now the number has directly increased to tens of thousands. Of course, 95% of these mages are low-level mages.
But as long as these high elves are given time, these high elves will definitely be promoted to high-level mages. Militarization management has completely changed the temperament of the high elves, and now the high elves have been reborn.
The knight breathing and meditation methods that Richard gave to the high elves are completely different from the training methods of this world. It is to burn vitality to condense the seeds of life, and then feed back after the seeds of life are condensed.
In order to improve the strength of the high elves as soon as possible, Richard prepared a more violent version for them. This version consumes more vitality, but the strength is also improved quickly. But if the vitality is insufficient, the consequence is that the vitality is exhausted before the seeds of life are condensed.
Only the high elves with a life span of 5,000 years can use it. Ordinary humans are looking for death if they learn it. The same is true for meditation.
These are things inherited from the witch king. For the high elves who are in urgent need of improving their strength, these two training methods are very suitable.
The high elves now can be said to be all soldiers.
Because the number of human refugees soon exceeded 5,000, and there were a large number of orphans among these people, Richard specially prepared housing for these orphans, provided food, and arranged people to give these children simple training. As for other refugees, they need to work in exchange for food.
But even so, these refugees are grateful.
The news that the elves had established a refugee camp here spread quickly, attracting more refugees, which also caused a shortage of food in the refugee camp.
After all, the high elves suffered heavy losses after the attack of the undead army, and food was also insufficient. In many cases, they used magic bread. In order to obtain food, human refugee camps began to spontaneously form search teams to search for food everywhere.
In the Eastern Plaguelands, the paladin Dathrohan also took in many refugees. When he heard that the high elves had taken in thousands of refugees here, he personally led a dozen paladins to recruit soldiers from these refugees, form the Crusader Knights, and even recapture Stratholme and Lordaeron.
"Quickly line up, everyone, stand in order! Don't stand too crowded, how can you swing your arms to attack if you are crowded together, do you want people to shoot you two into hedgehogs?"
"Why are you two so far away? Do you want the undead to divide and surround you? Okay, just like that, leave half a body space in front and behind! The people in the back row stand between the two people in the front row!"
Old Peter selected 500 people from the refugees, half of whom were veterans and half were new recruits. In order to make them form combat effectiveness as soon as possible, he used the method of old leading new.
The weapons used by these people are all standard weapons provided by the elves, but even standard weapons are better than the equipment of the regular army of Lordaeron.
Lor'themar sent two teams of elves to maintain order, and then selected some people from the refugees for management. Some are responsible for farming, some are responsible for logging, and some are responsible for building houses, and the old is the garrison officer among the refugees.
As a veteran who participated in the Second Orc War, although Old Peter is only a low-level officer, he is very experienced in training soldiers.
These soldiers went to the Plaguelands specifically to search for survivors and food, and also intended to use the undead to train their troops. In order to ensure their safety, Lor'themar also sent a team of high elves to assist.
With the help of the high elves' bows and arrows, this newly formed human army quickly wiped out a group of wandering undead without any harm. After destroying a group of undead, the morale of this human army was greatly boosted, and in this environment, they began to make rapid progress.
At the same time, they also began to go to the Plaguelands to search for supplies and food.
