Zhu Tian started by deceiving his father-in-law from the perspective of pirates

As a mage, Rhonin possessed an extremely strong thirst for knowledge! That's just how mages are; they're always drawn to incredibly magical spells.

They would fall into a state of obsession; otherwise, so many mages of Dalaran would not have been tempted to become liches, lackeys of the Lich King.

Therefore, he was extremely interested in the new necromancy spells cast by the demigods, and his eyes were even filled with fanaticism.

He's actually doing alright; if it were some other obsessed mages, they might be even worse off.

"But Rhodes, I know that the Impure World Reincarnation technique comes at a price. You, you should know that." Sylvanas hesitated for a moment, then stopped herself.

She knew that the Impure World Reincarnation technique could indeed revive undead creatures, but it required the sacrifice of a living offering to perform the summoning.

Rhodes did have a collection of White Zetsu, numbering around 100,000.

The problem is that if this number is applied to all the Forgotten, it's not enough; the total number of the Forgotten is in the hundreds of thousands.

Even all the White Zetsu combined wouldn't be enough. Although this move could theoretically control all the Forgotten Ones, there simply aren't enough sacrifices for them!

"My dear, I have found a reliable solution. For others, this method would be very difficult, but it is different for the Forsaken."

The first forgotten souls resided within them, for their souls remained within them due to the Lich King's power.

Therefore, I don't need to go to any trouble to summon their souls from the Shadowlands.

"In fact, all they need is an ordinary body, which we can actually replace with some special things," Rhodes said with a smile.

The biggest advantage of resurrecting the Forsaken is that there is absolutely no need to summon their souls from the Shadowlands.

"What can replace it?" Sylvanas asked.

"Haha, they're everywhere! In Silverpine Forest, in Tirisfal Forest, even in all sorts of waterways, these lowly creatures are practically everywhere," Rhodes said with a laugh.

"You, you're not talking about murlocs, kobolds, gnolls or anything like that, are you?" Sylvanas asked, her eyes wide.

Why do you think they're no good? Do you know how fast these guys reproduce?

"The kobolds and gnolls are alright, but if you don't clean it up for a few months, a whole bunch of murlocs will come out of the river, those extremely filthy creatures," Rhodes said.

Neither the Horde nor the Alliance cares about the life or death of these lowly creatures; in fact, wiping them all out would be the best outcome.

What are the daily tasks of ordinary adventurers from the Horde and Alliance? Most of them are clearing out kobolds, gnolls, and murlocs.

"That's certainly a good idea, but are you sure they can use it?" Sylvanas asked somewhat nervously.

After all, this is about reviving one's own race!

"Although they are a bit slow-witted, reproduce faster, are uglier, more disgusting, and dirtier."

But they are still a kind of intelligent life; the kobolds can cast some arcane magic, and the gnolls can unleash their rage.

"As for those merfolk, I really can't understand how a shaman could be born from among them. Can you believe how absurd that is?" Rhodes said.

Please! In the world of Azeroth, even the kindest priest wouldn't care about or pity the lives of these inferior beings.

"Don't worry! I've already had Kabuto test it out. He captured some fishmen, gnolls, and kobolds. They are all perfect sacrifices," Rhodes said.

After arriving in Undercity, he had arranged for the apothecary Kabuto and the resurrected Gul'dan to capture some low-level creatures such as gnolls, kobolds, and murlocs, and then conduct some small experiments.

These weak and incredibly prolific creatures, which are found everywhere in the world of Azeroth, are perfect as offerings for the rebirth of the drawing.

Kabuto even wanted some of these creatures to breed and cultivate them in a special way.

Rhodes had no objection to this; in Wano Country, they could raise some fish-men to be used as offerings for the Impure World Reincarnation later.

Gnolls and kobolds can also be used as practice targets for ordinary pirates. Some can be raised in Shiki's territory, and these creatures can breed into a large group in just a few months.

"Demigod Rhodes, the spell you mentioned comes with a price, right?" Rhodes keenly sensed that the spell seemed to have a considerable cost!

"That's right, there is indeed a price to pay. This resurrection spell can bring the dead back to life, but it requires the sacrifice of a life."

"Don't worry! I've found the perfect replacement," Rhodes said.

"If it's these low-level creatures, I completely agree. You don't know that we in Dalaran spend a lot of money every year issuing missions to eliminate these low-level creatures. In some rivers, murlocs can easily proliferate," Rhonin said.

Rhonin might be offended if other intelligent races were used as sacrifices, but not murlocs, gnolls, or kobolds.

Forget it, how many of these things are wiped out? It's something to celebrate, those filthy, inferior creatures.

They serve no purpose other than harassing residents, robbing livestock, attacking caravans, and even assaulting human children.

"If that's the case, then Rhodes, hurry up and do it! I can't wait to announce this good news to my people." Sylvanas looked very excited.

He resurrected all the Forsaken in the form of impure resurrection, so that even the princess of Lordaeron would no longer be able to threaten his rule.

"No problem, my dear. Go and gather all the Forsaken! Announce this wonderful news to them."

Sylvanas smiled and nodded at Rhodes, then turned and left.

That evening, Sylvanas, the Banshee Queen, summoned all the Forsaken of Undercity and announced a decision to them.

Hundreds of thousands of Forsaken gathered here, and Sylvanas appeared before them in her resurrected form.

Standing at the highest point of Lordaeron, beside her was Rhodes.

"Your Majesty! Have you truly risen from the dead?" A Forsaken gazed at Sylvanas, now transformed into a high elf, on the high platform, filled with immense excitement.

"Your Majesty, will you... will you grant us this resurrection? Will you grant it to your people?" a Forsaken warrior asked.

This is what all the Forsaken care about: Her Majesty the Queen has been resurrected, but what about them?

They, these Forsaken who had followed the Queen through countless life-and-death struggles for years, all the Forsaken once shared only one thought: to kill Arthas.

But even now, they want more and more. Before, they gained a hilarious emotion from artificial Devil Fruits, but now they want to be resurrected and become like the Queen.

"My people, all the forgotten ones, I know you are very restless these days, I know you are longing for something these days."

Yes, you all saw it, I was resurrected, but this resurrection came at a price, and it wasn't as perfect as you imagined.

"Tell our Queen, what is the price? As long as it's something we can bear."

"Aren't you perfect as you are now?"

Some of the Forsaken began to chatter amongst themselves, saying that Sylvanas in front of them looked like a living person, not at all like an undead.

Is the price too high? Is that why Her Majesty doesn't want them resurrected because of the demigod's magic?

"However! Although there is a huge price to pay and some drawbacks, as your queen..."

"I am still willing to share this imperfect resurrection with you," Sylvanas said, opening her arms wide.

"Thank you, praise be to you, Your Majesty!"

"Praise be to you, great Queen Sylvanas, your light will shine upon us all."

Upon hearing that Sylvanas would share the resurrection with all of them, the Forsaken erupted in thunderous cheers.

The Queen did not disappoint them; she truly promised to share the resurrection with all the Forsaken.

"No need to thank me, this is the magic spell cast by my husband, the great Azure Dragon demigod Rhodes."

He also improved the spell, which previously required a huge price.

"But now, with just a tiny price, you can be resurrected," Sylvanas declared loudly.

Previously, a living person was required, but now a lower creature is required—fishman, kobold, gnoll, or anything else will do.

Clap clap clap clap! Enthusiastic applause erupted from below.

"Praise be to the great Azure Dragon demigod!"

"Praise be to the Azure Dragon demigod!"

"Praise be to the great Queen!"

"Alright, everyone quiet down! Now I'll show you how this resurrection spell brings people back to life, and what its drawbacks are." Rhodes walked up to all the Forsaken, waved his hand, and signaled everyone to quiet down.

After all the Forsaken quieted down, Rhodes clapped his hands, and a group of Dark Rangers immediately appeared before them, accompanied by a dozen or so murlocs, kobolds, and gnolls.

Some of the Forsaken were bewildered; they didn't understand why the great demigod had brought these inferior beings before them.

Rhodes looked at the Forsaken group in front of him and asked loudly.

"Next, I need a volunteer. I want to show everyone the magic of this spell."

"Who among you will come? Who is willing to be the first to receive this great gift, the gift of the Azure Dragon demigod!" (End of Chapter)
