Gou is a dark elf in Warhammer

Chapter 620 471 The shock from Dacus

"What happened next? Then we found another relic, where there was an injured second-generation Slann Magic Priest and a sleeping third-generation Slann Magic Priest. He got very angry after chatting with the awakened third-generation Slann Magic Priest. He kept talking and cursing to himself. The Duruchi stood far away and didn't dare to approach him to talk. He would occasionally say some strange things, but he usually behaved very elegantly. That was the first time I saw him angry, truly angry, after I met him."

"Why?" Finnubar had been brought into the rhythm by Beloda, and curiosity took over his heart. But he did not show any impatience, but asked calmly and elegantly.

"The nodes of Albion and Ulthuan are connected, and Albion is connected to Elsin Alwyn and Norsca. Albion's system has a stabilizing effect on Ulthuan. When Ulthuan is affected, Albion will also be affected. It is said that the reason why the second-generation Slann Mage Priest was injured was related to the collapse of the sky and the earth a thousand years ago..." As Belloda spoke, she looked at Finubar meaningfully. She was reminding Finubar, even though what she said was very obscure, but she believed that Finubar could understand.

"What do you mean?" Finubar ignored the commotion in the tent and stared solemnly into Beloda's eyes.

"Yeah, you're like you understand."

After getting the confirmation, Finnubar nodded. Although there was a lot of information that Belloda did not say, he had already grasped the hidden meaning of Belloda's words. Darkius was angry. Who was he angry with? It must be Malekith. The collapse of the sky and the crack of the earth was Malekith's doing.

All the elves knew this, and various legends and ruins found everywhere in Ulthuan confirmed this. Why did Ulthuan have a huge wave of immigrants after the Great Sundering? It was because Malekith destroyed their homeland, and the Asur who survived and had nowhere to go could only go to Elsin Arwen to make a living.

From the fact that Dacus was angry, he could tell that Dacus' power and status in the Duruchi was higher than he thought, and that he might even be close to Malekith in terms of status. And he was very influential in the Duruchi, otherwise those Duruchi would definitely have to express something instead of just standing there and watching. Thinking of this, he suddenly thought of something, but it seemed impossible? As far as he knew, Malekith seemed to have lost his ability to have children.

"Dacius... Which family is he from? He and..." Finubar looked around and asked cautiously.

"It's not what you think. I had the same idea as you at the time, but it's not. He is from the Herban family, which is the Hellbane family in the variant of the Duruchi language, Elsalin. Daquus Hellbane is not the head of the family. As far as I know, Anasara and Newker are still alive.

But he is very influential and can influence the will of the family and even the will of the entire Naggaroth. He has two titles, "Hand of the Witch King" and "Chief Archon of Druki". Malekith entrusted him with all matters of Naggaroth, big and small, and fully supported him. As far as I know, Malekith actually didn't want him to come, but he insisted on coming, and you saw the result. "Beloda knew what Finnubar was asking, and she directly denied it.

The atmosphere in the tent became depressing again. The Helbane family was well-known in Ulthuan. Alandrian was Malekith's most trusted lieutenant, and his daughter Hellebron was even more notorious. She had fatally destroyed the Kingdom of Cosqui during the Sundering. His brother, Calderon, died in Tar Anlek during the Sundering, but Anathara, Calderon's wife, had made great contributions during the Sundering.

Newker...

After the ninth Phoenix King, Moviel, the "Reckless One", came to power, he organized an army to attack Nagaros in revenge for the eighth Phoenix King, the "Singer", Edis. However, the attack was discovered in advance, and Duruchi, who received the warning, was ready. When the Asur army was halfway through its landing, Duruchi's army launched a surprise attack on it.

This massacre was called the "Day of Blood". More than half of the Asur fleet was destroyed, causing the power of the two sides at sea to tilt. After that, the two sides maintained a strange and delicate balance. The commander of the battle on land was Newker. Many of the elders of the princes and princesses in the tent served in the Asur Navy...

Now there's another Dacus, the "Chief Archon of Druch"?
"Go on." Having obtained the key information, Finnubar did not dwell on it any further. He motioned for Beloda to continue the story.

"That third-generation Slann magic priest did something. According to Daxus, he dressed up as the greenskin god while he was sleeping. He made the greenskin prophet who controlled the tribe believe that what he did was guided by God..."

This was a lot of fun in itself, but after Belloda finished speaking, there was no sense of joy in the tent, as the Asur were still digesting the information contained in her previous words.

"Things were a bit complicated at the time. The spiritual vein network of Orbion was very unstable. Some Chaos warbands were teleported there through the channel, expelled the previous greenskin tribe and occupied the temple city there. The Slann magic priest drove the greenskin prophet to fight against the Chaos warband. Next, we formed a pincer attack with the local Orbion natives and attacked the greenskin tribe and Chaos warband in the temple city.

The battle was intense and the advancement was difficult. I was wearing a colorful feather cape that could float in the air, fighting in the air and guiding the Duruchi to attack the outer greenskin trebuchets. After the outer battle, we headed towards the pyramid in the core of the temple city. I saw the figure of Daquus, who fell in blood, and not far from him, there lay a giant, a corrupted giant, a giant with a height of 20 meters, whose throat was cut open by him.

I later learned that he had killed a greenskin warrior and a doomsday bull before that. In my opinion, he has unparalleled experience in dealing with large creatures. Can you imagine that the giant did not cause any effective damage to him?

We then joined the others inside the pyramid, and at the heart of it he asked me a question: Can I trust you? You know how important this is! I still remember my answer: Yes! This is about the world, about Ulthuan! Even if it means sacrificing my life, like the dragon tamer.

I then ascended the pedestal with three other warlocks and began the ritual. The ritual was difficult, and when it reached its climax, the entire pyramid trembled like a frightened beast, and my nostrils were filled with the smell of warpstone and decay. I chanted the spell I had learned only the day before, my throat twisted, struggling to utter the unfamiliar syllables. I found my inner vision distorted, and understanding and power flowed through my body, washing over me like a torrent, and I absorbed and understood like a sponge.

As the passage was closing, I felt pain, an almost unbearable pressure, and I forced myself to concentrate, tapping into my deepest reserves and focusing on the spell. As the chanting continued, the runes were sealed one by one, but the pain and torture continued to intensify, constantly devouring me. I was wondering if all this would stop, if I would die from the pain and torture, and if my soul would be trapped here forever.

Pain and torture spread in my mind, constantly burning me. Endless darkness lingered on the edge of my mind like a tide, and I gritted my teeth and tried desperately to stay conscious.

Everyone is still alive, the ritual was successful, the passage was temporarily closed, the threat of world destruction has temporarily disappeared, our efforts were successful, our sacrifice was not in vain, and my strength has been greatly improved.

We, or rather, Duruchi, saved the world... Can you imagine it? Duruchi saved the world! How incredible, how unheard of..."

As Belloda spoke, her father reached out and held her hand tightly, which was shaking with recollection, trying to comfort her.

"Why didn't you react? Is the story not exciting enough? Or is there something wrong with my story?" Belloda's story did not cause much response, no doubt, no ridicule, only silence and confusion. She looked around and asked slowly.

"You did well. I'm proud of you, child." Seraphim patted the back of Belloda's hand. Then he said, "Child, I believe you. When it happened, we sensed that something terrible was happening on the island surrounded by fog, and corresponding information was also sent from Ulthuan. The reason why Caledor contacted the outside world was also related to what happened on that island. Just when we were about to do something, everything became stable again. Well done, my child."

"Then?"

"After that? When the passage stabilized, the Lizardmen army of Lustria crossed Lustria and Ulthuan, and a portal slowly opened. The Lizardmen took over that place, and they would re-maintain the nodes of Albion Island and guard it.

After that, we set out on our journey again. We were originally going to land in Elsin Alvin to look for you, but something happened during the process. We encountered a ship, an undead pirate ship from Lustria. We chased the pirate ship and cleared out the last remnants. After the war, we found a dwarf. "Beloda told the story, but she concealed some things, such as her friend, the friend who transformed into an elf vampire.

"Dwarf? Why would the dwarf appear there?" Finnubar asked curiously.

"Because he is not a mountain dwarf who has fought with us. He is a Norse dwarf from Norsca. His ship was sunk and he was captured. Dacus seemed to know something, and he also got some kind of revelation. After that, we adjusted the direction and headed towards Norsca. We came to Skjord, a coastal town of the Bjöllin tribe. After we replenished our supplies, we set off eastward along the coastline of Norsca and arrived at our final destination, Ormskoro of the Salli tribe.

I pulled down a comet there…” Belloda’s words were interrupted.

"Did you pull down that comet?" Fenrir asked.

"That should be it? It seemed that there was no second comet at that time. I guided the comet to hit Omskro, and the Duruchi launched their best raid, and Omskro was destroyed. We found the dwarf who was also captured there. It is said that this dwarf is a prince. I can feel the importance of these two Norse dwarfs to Dacus. He established a friendship with the two dwarfs, and they exchanged gifts with each other before separation.

Don't think about those things, he is very cunning, I can feel that the Norse dwarves are very conservative and exclusive, even more conservative than the mountain dwarves in the records. The next time they meet, they will take out gifts as proof, and in addition, they will also speak a code that only they can understand.

Unless... you are pretending to be Duruchi pirates? But I don't think it will be of any use. According to him, the population of the Norse Dwarves is too small and they need blood transfusions and support. The Norse Dwarves' fortress is too close to the North Pole. They are the first line of defense against Chaos invasion. The roadstone system they set up is still in operation. "

As Belloda spoke, she kept staring at Finubar. She could feel the struggle in Finubar's heart. She could understand this feeling because she had the same one.

"What about the revelation? What is the revelation?" Eltharion, who had said nothing since entering the tent, suddenly asked.

"From what I know about Daquus, he doesn't have the skills of a qualified captain. He can only wipe the deck or climb onto the sails to cause trouble for the sailors. In my opinion, his position on the ship is more like a chef? Yes, a chef, but what he cooks... can only be said to be edible, not delicious. Those ingredients are wasted by him." After making a joke, Belloda stood up and poured himself a glass of wine.

"What does this have to do with revelation?" After hearing what Beloda said, Isharion asked with a frown.

Finnubar shook his head speechlessly. In his opinion, Eltharion was a little immature.

"Of course there is. It was this guy named Duruchi who couldn't even drive a boat that won the recognition of Matheran!"

Belloda's words did not ignite the atmosphere in the tent. The Asur were not fish in water. She had talked about related things during the day.

"You know that Lilith gave the elves three extraordinary items, the Star Crown, the Sunfire Amulet, and the Lilith Moon Staff. But you don't know that Matheran also has three extraordinary items, namely the Trident of the Sea, the Holy Soul Reef, and the Deep Sea Scepter.

Matheran made a choice, choosing Daquus as his champion. Can you imagine that a man named Duruchi who can't even sail a boat became Matheran's champion? The revelation he saw was the Trident of the Sea that he used to defeat Orion today, a weapon that can rival Lilith's Moon Staff, and you saw the power it displayed today. "

"This is impossible! This... Matheran."

The one who spoke was Seraphim, who expressed the confusion on behalf of the Asur. The Asur present were divided into factions and were members of the Kaihai faction. Most of them believed in Maselan, and the professions of the family members were closely related to the sea.

The impact of this incident was too great for them. Before this, Matheran only favored the elves at most. Belloda was the one favored by Matheran, so she was highly respected in Twilight Fortress before she met Daquus, but it was only favored. She was still a long way from becoming the chosen one of Matheran. Matheran had never chosen the chosen one, let alone the champion. Now a Duruchi who couldn't even drive a boat appeared in their sight and became the champion of Matheran. What kind of thing was this?

The tent was plunged into confusion and anxiety, and the Asurs' eyes stayed on Belloda's face, trying to find the answer from it.

"What exactly is Maserlan's intention?" Adeanna whispered, her eyes full of confusion and uneasiness. She didn't understand. The elves of the Kingdom of Cosqui were the most closely connected with Maserlan. A large part of the Asur in the kingdom were engaged in professions related to the sea. They were staunch supporters of Maserlan. In the end... At the same time, she could also imagine the influence of the news that Darkus was the champion of Maserlan on the Asur of the Kingdom of Cosqui.

"As far as I know, Dacus obtained the Holy Soul Reef a long time ago, a gift from Maserlan, which means that he now only needs the Deep Sea Scepter. When he obtains the Deep Sea Scepter... we, not... you, will face a terrible enemy." Belodah was very satisfied with the current results, and continued while gently moving the wine glass with his fingers. "What about you?" Finnubar asked, catching a clue.

"Can I go back? Unless you become the Phoenix King and pardon me, but then what will that mean? What about my honor? What about my reputation? How can I survive in Ulthuan?"

Finnubar nodded helplessly and sighed. He thought that what Belloda said was right. According to the information he had received, the conservatives played a big role in Ulthuan's recall of Belloda. They wanted to do something through Belloda and thus influence him.

"Why did Matheran do this? Although the will of God is unpredictable, I have guessed something. But I can't tell you. You should ask him tomorrow and see how he answers you. Let's talk about something practical. As far as I know, before Daxus became the champion of Matheran, Matheran had a daughter who existed during the Golden Age. The daughter I am talking about is the elf, not the sea dragon beast under the sea of ​​Lothern.

She came from the Kingdom of Yvresse and later came to Elsin Arwen. She is still alive in this forest. The Flowing Water Palace in the north is her residence. She is standing behind the spellcasters today. You may not notice it. You will see her tomorrow, but I don't recommend you to do anything because she is a staunch supporter of Dakwus. In my opinion, Dakwus should be combined with her? Can you imagine what it would be like if they both appeared in front of the Duruchi Navy or the Asur Navy at the same time? "

The atmosphere in the tent was depressing. The Asurs had become somewhat numb. They didn't know how to think or express themselves.

Finnubar frowned, thinking of one thing. When he was still a child, Orion appeared in Ulthuan and attacked the Kingdom of Arion. Kurnos was the main god worshipped by the Asur in the Kingdom of Arion. The riders living on the grassland did not dare to take up arms to resist their gods. Their hesitation and concession made them pay the price of blood.

If one day, Duruch and Asur went to war again, and Dacus and the daughter of Matheran stood in front of Asur's fleet... He was a little afraid to think about it. The Asur Navy suffered a tragic loss during the "Day of Blood" and has not recovered yet. It can no longer suppress the Duruch Navy as before. Now Dacus has appeared. This... Defeat Orion like Dacus? The problem is that the Asur Navy's faith is Matheran.

Thinking of this, he looked at Belloda. According to Belloda's description and his contact with Dax today, he could feel that Dacus was different from the impression he had of Duruchi. It seemed that Dacus had come to him specially, and he must have some political purpose. He could feel that Dacus valued him, otherwise he would not have told him not to come out before entering the Chaos Realm and must kill him. Combined with Matheran's favor for Dacus, he seemed to have caught something. The generals, soldiers and sailors of the Asur Navy were basically from his faction. He seemed to understand, but he was still a little uncertain.

"and after?"

Belloda looked at Finnubar who was asking the question. In her opinion, Finnubar seemed to understand the hidden meaning of her words. And this was the main purpose of her coming here tonight. Just like Dacus said to her, the same words depend on who said them. Some words should be said by her. But there are some words that she cannot say, and Dacus must say them himself.

"Nothing happened afterwards. We circled the Claw Sea and stopped at a port that now belongs to monkeys to resupply. We found some things related to the Lizardmen in a shipwreck. Later we went to Aesop Talarian. The once glorious city sank to the bottom of the sea, with ruins everywhere. Perhaps it was a mistake to have built it there in the first place.

Later, we landed under the watchful eyes of Ceathilta, but before landing we encountered a Norscan fleet that came for revenge, and the fleet was very large. The Trident of the Sea sent out a more terrifying force than today, and those Norscans sank into the sea to feed the fish. That is the territory of Aenil. By the way, if you continue your journey to Elsin Alvin, I don’t recommend you to go there. It’s a waste of time. ”

"why?"

"This part of the story is very long. It was the spring equinox when we landed. The Ainir there were celebrating. I saw there..."

"What did you see?"

"Are you mentally prepared?" Belloda responded calmly to her bestie's question. She answered it as if she were asking herself, and then said, "I saw the incarnation of Loik. He danced with Dacus at the climax of the festival..."

"this?"

"The lord there is called Kaia. Humans call her the 'Storm Witch'. Just as you imagined, she is also a believer of Maserlan. I became friends with her, and she told me... on the day when the Norscan fleet arrived, she stood on the top of the Ceatiel Tower, ready to face the brutal battle that was about to begin. But at some point, an elf lady appeared beside her and said something to her. The lady said: He is hope. She thought the lady should be Aisha! And the "he" Aisha was referring to was Daquus."

Numb, completely numb, the Asur no longer knew what to say. Words like shocked and unbelievable could no longer accurately express their feelings at the moment. They didn't understand... they didn't understand why the gods would favor a Duruchi so much.

"After we stayed there for a while, we prepared to go to Tal Litanel. Kaia set off with us. She was a member of the Three-Person Council that year. She was going to Tal Litanel to take up a post. Ainel, who lives in Lauren Loren, has a complex social system, but of course this is not the point.

The point is that she became a member of the Storm Weavers on the way. I don't think I mentioned it before. The Storm Weavers were founded by Dacus. She is a high-ranking priest like me. After this journey, I will return to Lustria to organize the work of Chapeyuto, such as building the Great Temple of Maserlan and the Great Lighthouse. Like before, I will disperse the typhoons when the typhoon season comes. Later, I may organize a travel ceremony for the fleet of Duruchi?
As for me betraying the fleet's departure information, don't count on me. Dacus trusts me, believes me, and I will repay him with loyalty. Of course, if you organize a navy to attack there, I will not take action, because it is not my turn to take action. Chapeyuto is not just a port city of Duruchi. The lizardmen will also establish contact with the lizardmen in the southern jungle through that city. The second-generation Slann magic priest in the pyramid will protect Chapeyuto.

Kaia will continue to stay there, acting as the head of Lauren Loren, receiving visiting elven ships. I'm not just talking about the elves of Duruchi and Ainir, but also you, if you want to go."

The Asurs did not accuse or scold Beloda, nor were they curious about why they went. They were in a depressed state, they just sat quietly listening or thinking, and even the desire to touch the food and drinks on the table disappeared.

"Something happened on the road. There was a disturbance in a place called the Golden Pool to the south of the road. At Kaia's request, we went there. The situation was very complicated..." Seeing that the Asurs ignored her, Beloda continued to talk to Finubar and his father.

"You went to the Chaos Realm?"

"No, that was later. The situation was very complicated. A Skaven army was hungry for the energy in the Golden Pool. They launched an attack on the Golden Pool. Enil and the forest spirits blocked the attack of the Skaven, and then we joined in. The battlefield was divided into two places. One was the blocking point in the open space, and the other was the Golden Pool. I was assigned to the Golden Pool.

Maybe we were late, or maybe it was some other reason. The guardian of the Golden Pool made an impulsive and foolish choice. No matter what emotions influenced her, this choice was wrong. She activated the energy of the Golden Pool, the rich wind of Jilun and Guer, but this was exactly what the existence in the Golden Pool wanted. There was not only energy in the Golden Pool, but also an extremely powerful demon was sealed. The demon was released, and it transformed Jilun and Guer's wind into Deha. We fought with it, but we couldn't defeat it at all. The Deha of the Golden Pool continuously provided it with energy.

That Deha was so huge that it supported a portal that appeared in the open battlefield. Daxus was in the open battlefield at the time, and later he left the battlefield and came to the Golden Pond. Later I learned that he killed a controlled chicken snake beast on the way to the Golden Pond, and also killed the ratman leader who controlled the chicken snake beast. "

"The Great Demon? What happens next?" Eltharion asked impatiently, his attention drawn to the story told by Beloda.

The word "Great Demon" also attracted the attention of other Asur, and they listened to Beloda's story in their own ways.

"Then a dragon lizard guarding the Golden Pond appeared and fought with the demon, but the dragon lizard was no match for it. In my opinion, that demon was very strong and very good at fighting, even stronger than the legendary Nakali."

Warhammer World Hot Knowledge: Mortals are best not to speak the names of the Chaos Gods...

Although Belloda did not mention the name of the great demon or which Chaos God it belonged to, the Asur understood what Nakali meant when he said it. They took a deep breath, after all, the damage Nakali had caused to the elves was too great, and the great demon Belloda faced was even stronger than Nakali.

"What happens next?" This time the urging came from Yelian.

"Then Dacus came and said to us: We have tried our best..."

"You ran away?" Yelian said with an expression that said, "That's what I guess."

"He said: We have tried our best. I will try one last time. If we fail... we will run as far as we can. He smiled and waved to us when he said that. Then he rushed towards the demon without looking back. I will always remember the way he turned around. This is an indelible memory." Belloda glared at Yelian and opened her mouth, but she swallowed the harsh words in her throat. In her opinion, it was not her turn to teach Yelian a lesson. She smiled calmly and said in a teasing tone.

"He defeated the great demon?" Eltharion asked impatiently as before.

"Things are a bit complicated." Beloda showed off for a while, and then when she saw that the time was right, she continued, "Since you want to listen, I will explain in detail. The Great Demon is connected to the Deha of the Golden Pond. In this case, Daquus cannot defeat the Great Demon. Fortunately, his sister, Koliocolonia Hell's Disaster, took action.

Can you imagine that a Duruchi sorceress could use advanced magic? It's so unbelievable, but she did it. By the way, she also cast the Hour of Disorder today. It is said that she was taught by a second-generation Slann magic priest in Lustria. While the big demon was fighting with her brother, she transformed the energy in the golden pool into Kush, and then she released a sun under our protection.

As time went on, the sun's light became more intense, reaching an indescribable intensity. It began to expand in midair, becoming larger and larger, illuminating the entire golden pool. The next moment, the sun exploded, with a huge surge of energy, releasing dazzling light, like a star exploding.

The demon was injured, but Daxus still failed to defeat it, it was too strong. Colonia exerted his strength again, the arcane cracking attached to the demon's body like a flame, the demon screamed in pain, its claws twitched and opened, the howl was deafening, the severely damaged armor began to crack, and purple pus leaked out from the wound.

He defeated the demon? Yes, he defeated the demon! He controlled the trident to break through the barrier and pierced the demon's heart accurately. The dark clouds dissipated, the shadows faded, and a clear and bright blue appeared above the Golden Pool, and the sunlight moved subtly. "

"Oh, by the way, the great demon is called Xialashi Demon Disaster." Belloda added after she finished speaking, she spoke in pure Elsalin language.

There was silence in the tent. The Asurs' expressions froze, as if time had stopped. Shock, disbelief, awe, and confusion alternately appeared on their faces. Their hearts were in turmoil as everyone was digesting this shocking news.

Facing Beloda's gaze, Yelian's face turned pale, and his lips trembled slightly. He could not accept this. He had never seen the Great Demon, and had only heard of it in ancient legends and stories. He could not imagine facing the Great Demon like Inarel did, fighting with the Great Demon, and finally defeating the devil. Moreover, Inarel did not face the Great Demon alone at that time.

"The Great Demon, that is the Great Demon, no matter how they did it." Eltharion widened his eyes and muttered to himself. In his opinion, it is not important how to defeat the Great Demon, what is important is to be able to defeat the Great Demon.

"This feat is truly incredible." Adianna's voice was filled with amazement and respect that was hard to conceal.

Seraphion frowned, worried about Belloda's experience and shocked by Daquus's feat, but he said nothing.

"I know this news is hard to accept, but Dakwus's strength and determination are real. And... from what I know, this is the fifth great demon he has defeated. Flannais told me that a Keeper of Secrets appeared at dusk in the year when Dakwus came of age. They joined forces with the Lizardmen in Lustria to defeat the army led by a prince, and defeated two princes at the Battle of Grond in Naggarond.

Not long after this, he killed another Great Unclean One, in the Chaos Realm, in the full sense of the word, killing, not exiling! "Beloda looked around at the Asur in the tent, and felt the shock and complex emotions in their hearts. She looked at Finnubar again, and when she saw that Finnubar had no expression on his face, she smiled and said.

The Asurs were completely defeated this time. The tent exploded. They had never seen a big demon, let alone defeated one. Good guy, by the time they got to Dacus, they had already defeated six. At this moment, they seemed to understand why the elves favored Dacus and why the lizardmen obeyed Dacus's orders. (End of this chapter)
