Menethil's Power

Chapter 303 The Rod of Destruction
Just as Jaina was being judged in the Tribunal of Truth, a figure in black robe appeared in front of the mysterious treasure room in the westernmost part of Violet Castle.She walked straight into this magnificent building, and the magic swordsman on duty seemed to have not seen her at all.

As the place where most of Dalaran's treasures are stored, the mysterious treasure room is undoubtedly one of the most heavily guarded places. The magic sword guards around this building are just for display, and its internal defense mechanism is sufficient to resist any malicious person .

Kalia took off her hood and slowly climbed up the stairs. What she wanted was on the top floor of the tower, but she couldn't get there all the way along the stairs. She had to go through the other two showrooms and three times. Identity authentication, trigger three traps and cross two arcane barriers.But since she is fully aware of the path and possible obstacles, she is naturally prepared for all countermeasures.

This information was provided by members of the Cult of the Damned, extremely accurate but from an unknown source, which made Kalia suspect that there are still many members of the Cult of the Damned hidden in Dalaran, and the position of its leader will definitely not be too low .

Kalia maintained her calm breathing, solved all the obstacles perfectly, and reached the top floor of the treasure room. There were only three items displayed here, a dilapidated book with a metal case, a deep purple gem and a handle. A red long-handled metal staff.

Book of Medivh, Eye of Violet, Scepter of Sargeras.Three magic items that are enough to be called artifacts.

The Violet Eye is a gemstone that contains infinite magical energy. Its history is so long that its origin is a mystery. The only thing that can be determined is that it is inextricably linked with the Kirin Tor Council.But the other two artifacts did not originally belong to Dalaran, but Ner'zhul sent the first-generation death knights to gather them together to form a combination suit that could tear time and space.

This is a history that Isaacs did not participate in. A few months after the end of the Second Orc War, the Dark Portal was reopened. Portals to other worlds to free the remaining orcs from dying Draenor.

It was at that time that the Warsong clan was abandoned and exiled in Azeroth.

Essentially speaking, the orcs are not too targeted at Azeroth this time, but Turalyon has faintly sensed the existence of the naaru at this time, and he wants to maintain justice in other worlds, while other alliance soldiers are still in a state of war against the orcs. So Turalyon, Khadgar, Danas Trollbane, Kurdran Wildhammer and other Alliance heroes passed through the Dark Portal without hesitation and counterattacked Draenor.

The history of this period is roughly the same as the original timeline, except that Aurelia was missing, and the elder sister of Windrunner chose to stay in Azeroth with her family. This is obviously the influence of Isaacs.

By constantly sacrificing orcs to stop the alliance, Ner'zhul finally achieved his goal, but the price was that Draenor was further broken. When the alliance army approached, this completely depraved old shaman shamefully left all his subordinates with A small number of orcs escaped through the opened space rift, but this did not save his life.Kil'jaeden found him easily, tortured him endlessly, and then threw the soul of the old orc to Northrend, the arctic of Azeroth, as the executor of the Scourge plan.

This is the first Lich King, the remnant soul of a fallen shaman, who is really not high-end among the villains in Azeroth.

The shattering of Draenor also affected the Dark Portal. Turalyon had no choice but to let a Wildhammer Gryphon Knight return to Azeroth with three artifacts before the Dark Portal completely collapsed. The artifact has been stored in Dalaran.

As for the four Alliance heroes including Turalyon, they were trapped in Draenor together with the tens of thousands of Alliance troops, and Stormwind City also erected their statues at the city gate after reconstruction.

Kalia scanned the entire room. Separately, these three magic items can only barely reach the legend, but they can play the role of reversing a world when they are combined. It is obvious that there is some kind of strange cooperation between them. In theory, all of them should be taken to make the most of the effect, and Kalia can also be sure that Tichondrius would prefer to get them all.

But this is obviously impossible.

All three artifacts are covered by a translucent purple shield, above which is a bright violet mark.Obviously they all have unique protections.

Kalia could feel the abundant arcane energy from the violet imprint. It was obviously not a pure defense mechanism. Anyone who touched it recklessly would definitely taste the horror of these majestic forces.Even if it can be resolved by force, the resulting energy fluctuations will inevitably alarm the entire Dalaran.

The tokens that lifted the three violet marks were kept strictly by several archmages, and even with the ability to curse the big man behind the cult, only one token could be obtained, so Kalia could only get one of them.

If the three artifacts are regarded as a complete operating system, then the Book of Medivh is almost the function of the manual, the Eye of Violet is the power source, and the Staff of Sargeras is the function department. It is clear at a glance which is the most important.

After all, this scepter was specially made for Sargeras. Even if it is not the main weapon of the Dark Titan, it still has some incredible power.

Kalia took out an exquisite pale gold snuff bottle. A faint blue light emerged from the snuff bottle and penetrated into the barrier of the Sargeras scepter. The violet mark on the top gradually faded until it disappeared.Soon the crimson staff was completely exposed, and the atmosphere of destruction and chaos spread out, and the blood ruby ​​on the top of the staff exuded indeterminate light.

Kalia stared at the artifact, its texture seemed very hard.Since it is called a scepter, it is obviously not just a simple spell-casting weapon. The sharp edges and corners can also smash the enemy's head.

But Kalia didn't pay attention to these things. She suddenly discovered a very strange thing, that is, she couldn't feel any special aura on the Scepter of Sargeras, whether it was the independent will that the artifact should have or the leftovers left by the former owner. The imprint below does not exist.

Kalia's breathing suddenly became a little heavy. What happened to this artifact?Did the mages of Dalaran erase what was supposed to be in this artifact?Or was it deliberately not cohesive when it was created?
No matter what it is, one thing is certain, this scepter is currently unowned, that is to say...

According to the previous arrangement, Kalia should use a special long box to store the scepter, and must not touch it during this period, but left without anyone noticing.But she didn't act for a long time, but stared at the Sargeras scepter, the blood-red gem seemed to be calling to her.

She needs strength.

Although this is the last one after the three requirements mentioned by Tichondrius, Kalia will not naively believe in the reputation of a Nathrezim, especially when part of her soul is still under the control of the other party. .She needs to increase the weight in her hands so that she will not be completely controlled by him.

And the Scepter of Sargeras is obviously this "weight", Tichondrius seems to want it very much, and if Kalia becomes its owner, she will no longer have no right to speak.

This is an opportunity. If she doesn't grasp it, she may be forced to do something irreparable.

Kalia gritted her silver teeth lightly, stretched out her white palm, and grasped the handle of Sargeras' scepter. It felt cold to the touch, and then a strange wave poured into her body.Kalia's body trembled slightly, and then the black robe on her body was torn suddenly, her wings spread out, and horns grew out of her forehead, and she turned into a demon form directly.

The scepter of Sargeras held by Kalia also changed. The ice blue tone gradually spread from the place where Kalia grabbed it to the whole body of the staff, and then the blood-red crystal at the head of the staff turned into a deep ice blue. The color seems to absorb all light.

Obviously, this artifact quickly transformed into the most suitable form for the controller. It contained the power of shattering and destruction, and it didn't matter much whether the carrier was flame or frost.

It was so successful?Kalia tried to imprint her own soul on this scepter, but failed. This scepter is not like a soul-bound weapon at all, but more like a... tool, anyone can use it Tool of.

The fact is indeed true, the servants of Sargeras created this scepter with the ability to tear space for their master, but it was only used by Sargeras as a tool to break the space barrier. In the past, he used this scepter to let his body enter Azeroth bit by bit.In other words, Sargeras has never used it to fight. This staff named after Sargeras is essentially a tool such as a wrench and a hammer, but because its owner is too powerful, it has a legendary level. energy level.

With the scepter in hand, Kalia directly smashed the window decorated with colorful glass, spread her wings and began to slide, she knew that the energy fluctuations she had just charged the Sargeras scepter could not be concealed at all, she had already exposed.

A group of mages rushing down below looked at the figure with bat wings in astonishment, "Devil!" Someone exclaimed.Kalia didn't care too much, the guards who arrived at the first time must be relatively ordinary guards, and they shouldn't pose any threat to her.

But is it really an ordinary guard?
This is a group of mages who have just walked out of the court of truth, and there are indeed many scholar mages among them who can't even perform a standard Pyroblast.But this is not the case at the head. This middle-aged mage with thick brown-red beard and hair is none other than Archmage Ansrem, one of the six highest councilors of the Kirin Tor.

He stared at the demon in mid-air, and felt that the blue-black staff in the opponent's hand looked familiar, but the speed of casting spells was affected by this. A large amount of hail mixed with ice arrows suddenly appeared directly in front of Kalia, and fell down. Caught off guard, the eldest princess directly bumped into it.

How can it be!One is an epic archmage? !

Kalia felt bad when she was hurt, and the physical impact damage was only second. As the same frost user, she had extremely high frost resistance, but at this time she felt a little A bone-piercing chill spread all over her body in an instant, and she couldn't control her body at all, so she could only be shot down.

She fell heavily to the ground and suffered serious injuries. However, the archmage with rich combat experience naturally would not stop there. His left hand made a downward movement, and a wave of force appeared, instantly Knock Kalia's thin body into the air again to prevent her from making any harmful acts of resistance.

Blood splattered everywhere. Even though she had accepted Nathrezim's transformation, Kalia's blood was still bright red, which meant that she still retained some of her human characteristics.Although she appeared to be seriously injured, the eldest princess has not lost her ability to move.

Although she didn't understand how unlucky she was to directly bump into such a terrifying existence, Kalia knew that it was impossible for her to fight against the opponent. Anslem's rank was already one level higher than hers, and she took up another With the advantage of being the first mover, Kalia has no way to resist.

She must escape.

So how to escape?Kalia rationally began to stimulate the power of the Sargeras scepter she had just obtained, and a blue-black space channel appeared in front of her in an instant, and Kalia rushed in with the remaining strength without hesitation. , it was this determination that allowed her to escape a deadly ice spear in a matter of seconds.

As an artifact capable of tearing apart space barriers, opening short-distance teleportation wormholes is the basic function of the Scepter of Sargeras.

Kalia fled, and Ansrem frowned. Although he said that this demon was not very powerful, letting it go would obviously cause a lot of trouble. The whole city is under martial law!" He said to the magic swordsman guards: "It's almost a smooth space passage, she can't run far."

……

Kalia didn't teleport too far. To be precise, she just escaped from Violet Castle, and tragically bumped into a patrol squad of battle mages. Mu was seriously injured, and she had to spend a lot of effort to break through the barriers of these battle mages, but this inevitably made more noise and attracted more pursuers.

Because she was not familiar with the power of the newly obtained scepter, Kalia could only use it for short-distance teleportation, but she ran out of mana after a few times, and the consumption of using the Sargeras scepter was really expensive.In the end, Kalia hid between two walls in an alley. She was exhausted, but Dalaran's hunt for her showed no sign of stopping.

The wall against which she was leaning was very cold, and Kalia closed her eyes tiredly. She was going to pay the price for her greed, and there was no way to escape. She could only wait for the final end, but this was also a kind of relief, wasn't it?At least in one particular way out of Tichondrius' grip.

Her consciousness had already begun to blur, and she was about to fall into a faint. At the last moment when her consciousness sank, she suddenly heard a somewhat familiar female voice, "Yo Yo Yo, isn't this Her Royal Highness Princess Kalia?"

A slender figure appeared in front of her, and Valeera let out an exclamation in the princess's demon form, but the female elf didn't show any fear, she just looked like "encountered something funny".

Kalia did not respond to her, and her consciousness had completely fallen into a coma. Valeera pondered for a moment, and finally bent down and hugged Her Highness the Eldest Princess.After all, regardless of Kalia’s current state, she is still Isaacs’ close relative, so Valeera has no reason not to save her, and her demon form can only be asked after she wakes up. Valeera believes that it must be a Very exciting story.
