Chapter 259 Skeleton Using Holy Light

In the High Elf Kingdom, after giving Kael'thas a lesson, Richard asked him to handle government affairs and practice hard. At the same time, he told him to discuss foreign affairs with Sylvanas in the future.

Kael'thas's political score was not good enough, so he should learn more, watch more and talk less. His current political score can be compared with the idiot who announced the massacre.

There were hundreds of thousands of people in Stratholme, and they just massacred the city without considering any political impact.

After handling the matter, Richard took out the soul crystal that he had not used last time and prepared to make two arcane guards.

Due to material problems, the challenge level of these two arcane guards is not as good as those in his floating tower, but Richard estimated that they are also around level 27.

Even the current Kael'thas and Sylvanas are not opponents of this challenge level of construct golem.

It was not difficult for Richard to make a legendary construct golem. It took him four days to complete the two golems. Because they do not use precious metals such as uru and vibranium, the challenge level of the two arcane guards is level 27.

One of the two arcane guards is placed in the Sunwell Tower, and the other is placed in Silvermoon City. The arcane guard in the Sunwell Tower basically does not leave, and the one in Silvermoon City will be dispatched as a supporting firepower.

Old Peter has just wiped out the undead in a small town and found a large amount of food from the warehouse of the town farm. After the magic detection of the high elves, these foods are not contaminated and can be eaten.

After hearing this news, the whole team cheered loudly.

Everyone hurriedly took action to load the food on the car. They used more than 20 carts in this farm to take away all the food.

After finding a large amount of food, the team began to return. The dragon eagle knights in the sky were responsible for reconnaissance. If they found a small group of undead, they would directly eliminate them, and if they found a large group of undead, they would hide or take a detour.

The convoy advanced safely, but at this moment, the Dragonhawk Knight suddenly sent a signal, and the high elf who had been in charge of the communication immediately shouted: "There is a situation, immediately form a military formation for defense!"

After hearing the order, the convoy stopped immediately, and 500 soldiers quickly formed a military formation and waited for it. The refugees they collected were surrounded in the center by the convoy.

At this time, the Dragonhawk Knight dropped a wooden cylinder, and the leading high elf opened the wooden cylinder. After reading it, he said to the old John next to him: "The Dragonhawk Knight found a team of Lordaeron paladins in front. They have come here. They seem to be searching for supplies to rescue refugees. Do you want to contact them?"

"Sir, we don't recognize those paladins, and we are no longer Lordaeron people. Just leave," said old Peter after a silence.

Since they learned that this undead scourge was led by Lordaeron's prince Arthas, they have been completely disappointed with Lordaeron. They no longer regard themselves as Lordaeron people.

"Okay." The high elf didn't say anything and directly ordered the convoy to set off again.

But just after the convoy had gone for a while, the team of paladins caught up and greeted them warmly.

"We are from the Knights of the Silver Hand, and we are gathering refugees and soldiers here. Are you soldiers from the legion of Lordaeron?" the paladin asked.

Old Peter frowned and looked at the paladin and said, "We are not from the legion of Lordaeron, but a group of refugees forming a search team."

"Refugee search team? Why are there high elves?" The paladin came forward and saw a team of high elves next to him. He was very surprised. He knew the arrogance of the high elves.

"It was the high elves who took us in and helped us build the camp." Old Peter said.

"Would the high elves be so kind?" The paladin whispered, and then he thought of something and asked hurriedly, "Are there many people in your camp?"

"Yes, dear paladin, if there is nothing else, we will go back. We still have many people waiting for food." Old Peter didn't want to entangle with them, so he said directly.

"Commander, Lordaeron is in crisis now. We hope you can join us in clearing out the undead and saving the country." At this moment, a middle-aged paladin came over.

"I am Dathrohan of the Silver Hand. Now we have established the Crusader Knights and need you to fight against the Scourge with us."

"I have seen these recruits you have trained. I have to say that they are all very good soldiers. If you are willing to fight side by side with us and clear out the undead to recover Lordaeron, I can appoint you as a colonel and let you lead a thousand-man regiment." Dathrohan said directly.

"I am sorry, Lord Dathrohan, thank you very much for your appreciation, but we are no longer Lordaeron people. Lordaeron has been destroyed. There are still many refugees in our camp waiting for us to bring back food. We must go back as soon as possible." Lao Pi recognized the paladin and refused directly.

"As the people and soldiers of Lordaeron, why are you unwilling to join us in recovering Lordaeron again?" Dathrohan said with a frown.

Before Old Peter could speak, an old soldier in the crowd suddenly said, "I participated in the Second War of the Orcs and fought for Lordaeron, but how did Lordaeron repay us?"

"He destroyed our homes, killed our loved ones, and even desecrated their bodies. Now you're asking me to fight again to recover Lordaeron?"

"What's the point of liberating him? Let him continue to kill our relatives and friends?"

"No, soldier, these are all the plots of those demons, things are not what you see! Arthas fell into the trap of the demons and did such a thing, and the culprit is the demons hiding behind!" Dathrohan said hurriedly.

"Really? I remember that the Knights of the Silver Hand and Archmage Jaina followed him at that time. If you had resolutely stopped him, would there be the later things?"

"What did you do? Strongly oppose, and then just pat your ass and leave, letting Arthas deal with it himself? Then how did he deal with it? He ordered the massacre of the entire city! Is this the prince of Lordaeron?"

"Okay, you can also use military orders to prevaricate us, the lower-class people, whatever you say, but we will never work for a kingdom that massacred our relatives! Lordaeron is no longer a kingdom for us."

After that, the soldiers did not stop and pushed the carriage back to the camp, leaving only Dathrohan and the paladins stunned in the same place.

In the Eversong Forest refugee camp, as more and more people came here, some Holy Light priests also appeared here. The whole camp has been on the right track. Because it is a unified plan, the whole camp is neat and tidy like a chessboard.

Many farmlands have been reclaimed around the camp, and many farmers are seizing the time to replant food in the farmlands.

Even if the Undead Scourge is destroyed, these people will not be able to go back for a while. Stratholme and Andorhal were destroyed by the undead, and the land there was also polluted by the undead energy. If you want to plant, you must purify the undead energy first.

Purifying the land is not a simple matter, don't think about it in a short time.

The Holy Light priests among humans have tried to purify the land with Holy Light, but although Holy Light can purify the land, the effect is not good.

The power of the Undead Scourge is spreading wantonly. Now, even those who have long been dead have begun to crawl out of their graves, which has caused a serious problem. The number of undead in Lordaeron is more than before the outbreak of the undead.

However, these skeletons and zombies born from the undead are different from the undead transformed by magic. Undead transformed by magic are usually controlled by the transformer, while skeletons and zombies infected by undead energy are not controlled.

These skeletons and zombies basically have no wisdom, and more often they follow the undead army subconsciously or wander aimlessly.

Alonsus Faol, who has been dead for a long time, was resurrected because of the infection of these undead energies. As the former Archbishop of Holy Light, he quickly regained consciousness after becoming an undead.

He felt extremely heartbroken when he saw that the Kingdom of Lordaeron had become like this. But the faith in his heart was ignited again. When he prayed to the Holy Light for the first time as an undead body, the Holy Light responded to him again.

The powerful Holy Light gushed out from his thin skeleton. At this moment, he was as dazzling as a golden sun.

Under the shining of the golden Holy Light, the undead around him immediately screamed and cried on the ground, but soon, these undead were burned to ashes by the flames of the Holy Light.

After using the holy light to purify the surrounding undead, Fao finally realized that he had received the response of the holy light again. Fao, who was extremely excited, began to use the holy light to rescue the refugees. In order to prevent his image of a skeleton from scaring the refugees, Fao deliberately wore a large priest robe and a mask.

Kalia carefully hid in a remote farm. In order to hide from the undead, she hid herself in a water tank filled with water, and she breathed with the help of a straw.

On the day of the disaster, she was taken away from the palace by several loyal guards and came here all the way. Those guards who protected her were also killed by the undead in order to cover her.

In the end, she had nowhere to go and could only hide in this farm, but today when she went out to find food, she suddenly saw a golden holy light light up, purifying all the undead near the farm.

The moment she saw the Holy Light, hope rose in Kalia's heart again. She hurried over to ask him for help, but she was stunned when she saw that the person using the Holy Light was actually an undead skeleton.

Kalia finally followed the skeleton, Archbishop Faol, and left the remote farm. Then, after rescuing some refugees, they began to head to the Eversong Forest of the High Elves. After all, their power was too weak to guarantee the safety and food of those refugees.

"You said you found an undead using the Holy Light?" Sylvanas was stunned when she heard Lor'themar's voice. Undead can also use the power of the Holy Light? Aren't these two powers opposite? What's going on? It's not magic at all!

"Yes, General, I saw him use the Holy Light to rescue those human refugees with my own eyes." Lor'themar is still shocked by what he saw not long ago.

"You watch them first, I'll go and ask the father of the country." Sylvanas said, and then hurried to ask Richard for advice.

"Sir, Lor'themar has found an undead who can use the power of Holy Light." Sylvanas said hurriedly.

Richard was slightly stunned, but soon thought of something and continued: "The power of Holy Light is not in conflict with death and undead."

"Not in conflict?" Sylvanas was a little surprised.

Richard smiled slightly. When this situation first started, almost everyone didn't understand it, but after studying the power of Holy Light, they would understand it.

"Although Holy Light can heal, restore, and revive companions, it looks like life force, but in fact it is not." Compared with these races in Azeroth, Richard knows the power of Holy Light better.

In the world of Motera, even those priests or other races who believe in darkness can also use dark power to heal, restore, and even revive.

This kind of power is very common in Motera, because these powers belong to the category of divine arts. And what is the source of the power of Holy Light? It is the power of the mind and faith, which is the power from their hearts.

The nature of this power is very close to divine arts in Richard's view, and this power is also idealistic. Compared with technology, magic is idealistic, but compared with Holy Light, Holy Light is idealistic.

"Undead magic is a variant of the power of death, and the power that truly corresponds to it is life. Holy Light is a kind of idealistic power, which cannot represent good or evil. In fact, many people who have done a lot of evil things can still use Holy Light."

"Because in their hearts, they think that what they do is justice, it is right, it is true, good and beautiful. In other words, as long as he believes from the bottom of his heart that he is doing the right thing, then he can use Holy Light, even if this person is unforgivable and has committed heinous crimes."

After hearing Richard's explanation, Sylvanas understood the essence of the power of Holy Light.

"The power of Holy Light is very idealistic, and it truly corresponds to Shadow. Of course, in fact, Holy Light and Shadow are also one."

"Sir, I understand, then according to your theory, can we high elves also master Holy Light?" Sylvanas asked.

"Of course."

"By the way, where is the skeleton that can use Holy Light?" Richard said.

"Lor'themar found it, in the refugee camp in Eversong Woods."

"I'll go over and take a look, you guys go ahead." After saying that, Richard opened the portal and headed there.
