Azeroth: Starting with Eagle Eye in the Necropolis.

These portals were built by demons under the Burning Legion. They cannot teleport high-ranking demons, but some low- and mid-ranking demons can use these portals to reach the shattered Outland.

Illidan, Rhodes, and the others' primary objective was to destroy these portals.

“See that, Rhodes? This is our target. I need to close these portals. You have to help me take over each and every one of them. I need ten minutes to close them,” Illidan said, turning to Rhodes.

The portal occasionally contains low-level imps, hellhounds, or demonic creatures such as succubi, bewitches, fear guards, and demon guards.

“Leave it to me! This will be easy and pleasant,” Rhodes said with a smile.

It's really not that difficult! To clear out these demons, all you need are the Holy Light Angels, Holy Light Elementals, and their Paladins and Priests. As for the Mage troops, the Blood Elves and Dalaran Mages only need to provide ranged fire support.

“Then let’s begin the mission!” Illidan nodded and said.

"For the glory of the Holy Light! Warriors, destroy these demons and purify them!" Old Mograine raised Ashbringer high, its blazing holy light dispelling the surrounding fel mist like a beacon, and he led the charge.

The paladins followed closely behind Ashbringer, their warhorses, formed from holy light, neighing and their holy shields gleaming. A holy storm illuminated the demonic realm, forming an unstoppable torrent of steel that crashed into the horde of demons before the nearest portal.

Before these warriors charged, Rhode cast buff spells on them. The buff spells in the Heroes of Might and Magic world are quite powerful. After being strengthened, these paladins experienced a terrifying increase in combat power. Moreover, each of them used the Holy Light power, which was extremely effective against these demons, as they were as tough as turtles.

Ashbringer traced a dazzling golden arc, instantly igniting a roaring demon guard in holy flames and reducing it to charred remains. Dathrohan stood firm at the forefront, his warhammer slamming, and holy light blasted the hellhounds that tried to pounce at him to smithereens.

"Feel the wrath of the Holy Light, demons, and witness the power of humanity."

The paladin troops formed a golden wall of iron, while the holy light elements summoned by Rhodes in the sky continuously cast holy light spells, attacking the demons surging out from the demon portal.

Countless demons were illuminated by golden light, and then vanished into thin air.

"Mage units, firepower! Target those casting units!" Prince Kael'thas calmly ordered, and a fiery storm instantly materialized in his hand, raining down scorching fire that enveloped a group of demon wizards who were channeling fel arrows.

The blood elf mage forces also joined forces with their prince to cast spells, relentlessly bombarding the demons with terrifying arcane and fire magic, arcane missiles, flame storms, fireballs, and fire dragons.

Rhonin was not to be outdone. He joined forces with several high-ranking mages from Dalaran to unleash a blizzard spell. The cold, cone-shaped ice shards, mixed with arcane energy, not only slowed down the demons but also tore their fragile bodies apart.

The support provided by the mage troops was quite effective, which made Illidan nod in satisfaction. Although Rhodes' troops were few in number, they were all elites.

Especially the paladin units that can use the power of holy light. To be honest, seeing the holy light used by these paladin units filled Illidan with emotion.

Once upon a time, when he was just born, the golden light flashing in his eyes was actually this kind of energy. According to Rhodes, he was likely blessed by the Holy Light at birth, but all of that is in the past. Now he is Illidan, the Demon Hunter.

"Lord Rhodes, it's up to you now!" Kael'thas shouted.

Rhodes nodded and stood in the center of the formation, his expression solemn. He raised his hands, and powerful arcane and holy energy gathered in them. He was about to test his improved version of the spell.

"In the name of holy light, purify the filth!" — [Holy Magic Arrow: Holy Light Variant]!

A dazzling spear of pure holy light instantly materialized and shot towards an Eredar warlock who was summoning hellfire in the distance, accompanied by a piercing shriek.

The spear of light struck the Eredar warlock precisely in the chest, and holy light energy erupted, like a miniature sun, evaporating the Eredar warlock and all the imps around him.

This is a new type of spell developed by Rhodes, which infuses the power of holy light into the Magic Arrow. Theoretically, the Magic Arrow is actually a spell without any attributes, because all four types of magic can provide it with bonuses.

If that's the case, then why can't the special attack spell, Magic Arrow, be infused with the power of holy light? This thought flashed through Rhodes' mind.

Rhodes has now reached a whole new level in the manipulation and use of the power of holy light. So, while casting the Heroes of Might and Magic world magic, Rhodes summoned powerful holy light and infused it into the magic arrow.

The result did not disappoint Rhodes. The power was at least 10 points higher than the ordinary Magic Arrow, and it also had the attribute of Holy Light, which had an extra bonus against undead shadows or demonic creatures. Most importantly, it summoned the power of Holy Light without increasing the mana cost of the spell, which was basically the same as the previous Magic Arrow.

This move was so powerful that it instantly killed a powerful Eredar mage, along with a group of demons around him.

"By the Holy Light, Rhodes, you have actually infused the Magic Arrow with the power of the Holy Light!" Jaina, standing beside Rhodes, exclaimed with delight.

Because of her basic academic background, Jaina also learned some low-level level 1 magic, including Magic Arrow, which is indeed very useful.

Its power increases with your magic power, but its consumption does not. Now that elemental attributes have been added, its power has increased significantly.

Furthermore, since Rhodes can incorporate the power of holy light, could I try incorporating the power of frost to create a frost magic arrow?

As Dalaran's most talented female mage, Jaina was no fool; she instantly came up with a new way to use it.

Jaina excitedly told Rhodes about her idea.

"Haha, as expected of my wife, your idea is good, Gina, you can give it a try." Rhodes nodded with interest and gave Jaina a thumbs up.

“I knew you’d support me. I’ll give it a try.” Jaina nodded to Rhodes, her body glowing with deep blue arcane energy, and terrifying frost magic coalesced around the sorceress.

A terrifying magical arrow, gleaming with icy energy, was formed and, under Jaina's control, shot towards the demon horde below.

This frost magic arrow instantly annihilated more than a dozen demons, and also had a freezing effect, causing some demons to slow down or instantly turn into ice sculptures.

This power is slightly weaker than the Holy Light Magic Arrow, but it is only effective against demons. If used to attack other creatures, the Frost Magic Arrow is not much weaker than the Holy Light Magic Arrow.

"I knew it! This is amazing, Rhodes! I've developed a new frost spell!" Jaina exclaimed excitedly.

Although it's just a small change, it's already a spell from Azeroth. Magic Arrow is the spell that Rhodes uses most often.

Rhodes' understanding of this spell was quite thorough, and he was naturally able to offer Jaina some ideas, in addition to the sorceress's own magical prowess.

Now that frost energy has been added, as long as a mage in the world of Azeroth has a strong enough understanding of magic, they can directly learn Rhode's magic arrows without even needing the special skill of academics.

Archmage Rhonin and Prince Kael'thas, who were standing to the side, also showed slight changes in their expressions. If fire were added to this move, it could become a fire magic arrow. It's really good!

No one expected that the portal used to attack the demons would accidentally lead to the development of a special spell that mages and paladins could learn.

That's right, it's not just mages who can learn this skill; paladins and even priests can learn it if Rhodes is willing to teach them.

At that time, paladins will have another means of attack, and priests will finally have an offensive spell in addition to Holy Light healing, so they won't have to switch to shadow form every time they want to deal damage.

However, this is just a joke. The Path of Shadow is a taboo among priests, and basically no priest would actively engage with it.

Next, Rhodes taught his understanding of the Magic Arrow to Rhonin and Kael'thas, with the sorceress Jaina also helping to refine it.

As top-tier spellcasters in Azeroth, Kael'thas and Rhonin quickly mastered the improved version of Magic Arrow, adding fire and arcane energy respectively to create a powerful variant of Magic Arrow.

After the battle, Rhodes planned to pass this technique on to the paladins and the human priests, spreading this offensive magic directly to the general public.

Since it can also accommodate multiple powers, Rhodes estimates that fel magic users are not entirely unusable.

The Magic Arrow is incredibly powerful and has great potential for development.

Chapter 229 The Holy Light Element with Wings on Its Back, The Treasure of the Holy Light King

Under the relentless bombardment of the Allied forces, the first portal was quickly captured, and Illidan immediately landed and stood in the center of the portal.

Illidan gathered powerful fel energy in his hands and began to close the portal, while the surrounding demonic creatures watched as Illidan was about to sever their roots.

They completely severed the portal from the Twisting Nether, and then they all rushed towards Illidan's side recklessly, trying to prevent the portal from being closed.

"Feel the wrath of the heavens, shatter these demons! Destiny is on our side." — [Thunderbolt]!

Rhodes pointed one finger to the sky, striking the legendary pose of begging for punishment, as if possessed by a red scarab beetle.

A thick bolt of lightning tore through the fel-filled sky, like a divine lash, lashing fiercely at the dense horde of demons near a portal. The electric snakes danced wildly, the smell of burning filled the air, and a large area was instantly cleared.

Unlike the magic arrows, lightning is a breath magic, so it cannot be combined with other powers of the world of Azeroth. However, lightning itself is powerful enough, so there is no need to add anything else; simple and direct is fine.

Boom, boom, boom! Bolts of lightning struck down relentlessly, inflicting heavy casualties on the demon army before them.

“Well done, Rhodes. Give me 10 minutes, and I’ll be able to close these portals. Don’t let anyone disturb me during this time,” Illidan nodded to Rhodes.

"Leave it to me. I can hold out for 10 hours, let alone 10 minutes," Rhodes said with a relaxed expression.

No big deal. I still have trump cards up my sleeve. Titans, Archangels of Light, Phoenixes—I'm keeping them all hidden away!

"Creatures of the Holy Light, answer my call! Powerful elements of the Holy Light, come to aid us in battle!" Rhodes chanted again, and an even greater surge of Holy Light power erupted.

Several ethereal and majestic elemental beings with luminous wings coalesced around him, their spears of light, like invitations from the Grim Reaper, precisely aimed at the bewitching bewitches and succubi in the distance.

These holy light elements, which have grown wings of light, are larger in size, faster, and their holy spells are more ferocious and powerful.

At the same time, a taller archangel of holy light, wielding a flaming holy sword, appeared above Rhodes' head. She let out a clear cry that resounded throughout the battlefield, and with a flap of her wings, she transformed into a streak of light and rushed into the enemy ranks. With each swing of her holy sword, demons fell like straws, and wherever she went, evil energy dissipated and holy light swept through.

These Holy Light Elementals previously maintained a golden female human form, but at some point, some of them began to evolve into angelic forms, sprouting two pairs of light wings on their backs. This made them move faster, and their Holy Light spells stronger, increasing their attack power by 2 points and their health by 10 points, bringing their health to around 60. Their speed even soared to 12, making them stronger than some low-level level 7 units.

Rhodes now seriously doubts whether the Holy Light, this energy, truly has self-awareness and is paying increasing attention to itself. Can the so-called Naaru really represent the Holy Light?

However, now is not the time to consider these things. The dozen or so Holy Light elementals in the sky, together with the two Holy Light Archangels, have already wreaked havoc on the battlefield.

"Hold the line! Don't let any demons interfere with Illidan!" Old Mograine shouted, while continuously casting buff spells such as Divine Protection and Blessing of Might to enhance the combat power of the paladins on the front line.

Priests chanted sacred prayers, and warm healing waves and the glow of dispelling evil magic shimmered across the battlefield, ensuring the warriors could continue fighting.

Ashbringer displayed terrifying combat power, especially after being enhanced by Rhodes' buff magic. Old Mograine, wielding Ashbringer, charged into the demon camp like a tiger among wolves, cutting down everything in his path. No demon could withstand Ashbringer for even a second before being burned to ashes.

No wonder Kel'Thuzad was so wary of Ashbringer; its terrifying destructive power was unparalleled, and Mograine's strength increased exponentially when wielding Ashbringer.

With the close cooperation of the Alliance, Blood Elves, and Dalaran mages, the demons surrounding the first portal were quickly eliminated.

Illidan Stormrage seized the opportunity, flapping his wings and flying above the portal. Powerful arcane and fel energy surged from his hands, forming complex runic chains, which he began to forcibly analyze and shut down the portal's core structure.

The green energy flow collided violently with the power he released, producing a hissing, piercing sound.

"Turn it off!"

Om-!

The massive portal let out a mournful cry of despair, its green fel energy curtain flickering violently before shattering into pieces like broken glass, ultimately vanishing completely and leaving only an empty, twisted doorway. Illidan casually unleashed a fel energy shockwave, destroying the portal's remains as well, thus severing any possibility of the demons rebuilding it in the future.

"The first one is complete!" Illidan withdrew his fel energy and looked at Rhodes. "Let's continue, the next one!"

"No problem, Illidan, target, the second portal! Maintain formation, advance steadily!" Rhodes' voice echoed across the battlefield through magic.

"Paladin in front, mage in the center providing support, ranger and spellbreaker protecting the flanks!"

The allied forces, like a sophisticated war machine, began moving toward the second portal. This time, the demons' resistance was noticeably more ferocious and their numbers far greater. Some high-ranking demons even joined the battle, along with some unknown abyss lords and hellfire troops.

"For the glory of Quel'Thalas!" A blood elf mage brandished his hands, arcane and fire energies perfectly merging in his palms to form arrows burning with arcane flames—[Arcane Pyroblast Arrow]!

These arrows seemed to have eyes, bypassing the paladins in front and accurately striking the densest part of the demon horde, while the other blood elf mages began to coordinate their spells.

Each explosion unleashed a double wave of destruction, a mixture of arcane shockwaves and fiery scorching, sending demons flying in disarray.

"We can't let our blood elf friends have all the glory! Paladins and priests, let these demons witness the power of the Holy Light!" Rhodes roared, summoning powerful Holy Light.

They even directly unleashed their trump card combat unit, the Holy Fire Phoenix.

After the giant Holy Fire Phoenix appeared, it let out a cry, rushed forward, grabbed several hellfires with its claws, and carried them into the sky.

The massive hellfire seemed utterly powerless before the Holy Phoenix, instantly transformed into ordinary fel energy rocks by the powerful holy light, and then plummeted from the sky.

Rhode really wanted to collect the remains of these Hellfires, since they were top-tier forging materials that could be collected when defeating Hellfires in the game.

However, now that the Iron Men, Gold Men, and Diamond Men produce special anti-magic metals for him, Rhodes doesn't care much about the evil iron produced by these Hellfires.

"The Holy Light is not only gentle; it can also bring judgment and destruction—[The Treasure of the Holy Light King]!"

With a wave of his hand, dozens of small holy light magic arrows shot out like a swarm of golden bees. Although the power of a single arrow was not as great as that of a full magic arrow, the coverage area was extremely wide, making them highly efficient at clearing out the numerous but fragile imps and hellhounds.
