By observing their physical structure and core, and attempting to analyze this special elemental life form, Kael'thas was confident that he would soon be able to successfully crack the secret of the Fire Elemental Summoning Scroll, allowing the scroll to truly and permanently summon elemental units.

“Haha, I must say, Kyle, your idea is indeed excellent. I can help with this,” Rhodes said with a smile and a nod.

He thought it was something serious, but it turned out to be just summoning some holy light power. This was incredibly easy and enjoyable, since he now had three Holy Fire Phoenixes at his disposal.

“No, no, no, Rhodes, I’ve already troubled you enough. I don’t need your help this time. I’m just sharing my thoughts. Don’t forget that the Sunwell now possesses the power of Holy Light. I can use the Sunwell to transform into the Phoenix.” Kael’thas smiled and shook his head.

He already owed Rhodes enough favors and didn't want to owe him any more. He had no choice before, but now his elven race had its own Holy Light Source.

Having this holy light source means having an inexhaustible supply of holy light power, so he can handle it without Rhodes' help.

“I’m really looking forward to it. Your phoenix is ​​usually almost as powerful as my Sacred Fire Phoenix. If it transforms into a Sacred Fire Phoenix, it will definitely be even stronger,” Rhodes said.

Although Kael'thas's Phoenix looks almost identical to the Tier 7 unit summoned by the Elemental City in Heroes of Might and Magic 3, it is far more powerful and larger than Kael'thas's Phoenix.

The only advantage we have is the upcoming upgrade to the Awakening of the Gods, which will give us a Divine Phoenix. However, this requires a special resource unit called Mithril, which we still need to accumulate.

However, he also has an advantage in terms of quantity. He has four phoenixes every week, and Kael'thas sends him a bottle of Sunwell water every week, plus an extra slot for a Holy Phoenix.

“I’m also working on the permanent summoning of the Fire Elemental. I estimate I’ll have it sorted out in a while, and then I’ll return the Fire Elemental Summoning Scroll to you and upgrade it,” Kael’thas said.

Rhodes nodded. He didn't know how long it would be for the elves. It could be a few days, a few months, a few years, or even a few decades!

It's been a year since Kael'thas proposed the theory of permanently summoning fire elementals. Hopefully, he can hurry up and finish it, otherwise the Awakening of Gods system might allow Rhodes to learn the magic of permanent summoning.

Since the end of the Dark Temple War, Rhodes hasn't made any major moves or acquired any resources, which has made him want to go find other monsters to grind.

Hopefully, Eggman can quickly train the high demon into a demon hunter, and then lead his demon hunters to raid the Burning Legion's territory, thus accumulating more resources for himself.

“Rhodes, a traitor has appeared among our blood elf race. His name is Darkan.”

"Arthas was able to break through the barrier so easily thanks to him. We didn't have time to deal with him before, but now we do," Kael'thas said.

"I know this guy, Kyle. Do you want me to help you hunt him down?"

Previously, we were busy saving the entire race, so we didn't have time to pay attention to this traitor, but things are different now. The internal problems of the race have been resolved, and now it's time to deal with this traitor.

Rodwin's eyes lit up. This Darkan was a rather famous boss, having been killed several times before: executed by Arthas, vaporized by Anveena, and shot to death by Lor'themar Theron with a magic arrow.

This guy used to be a member of the Scourge, but for some reason he stopped fighting Arthas and got killed. He was then killed by Ananda in the Sunwell trilogy, and later by Aqiang. Finally, he was killed by players in the Burning Legion Expedition.

"No, no, no, you misunderstand, Rhodes. What I mean is that I will personally send a hunting party to kill him, led by Lortherma."

I'd like to ask you to help them get some kind of pass so they can search for this guy's trail in Lordaeron.

Although this guy has betrayed the Scourge, he still possesses extremely terrifying and evil necromancy, which is a threat to you humans.

"Of course, it would be even better if your side could send some paladin troops to join the expedition," Kael'thas said.

He wouldn't even bother with such a minor character, so why would he trouble Rhodes to take action personally? He just wanted a pass and for the Silver Hand to send a few paladins to help him take down this guy.

“No problem, I agree. I happen to have nothing better to do, so I’ll take care of this guy myself,” Rhodes said with a smile.

This guy is considered a mini-boss in World of Warcraft. Taking him down should yield some rewards. Even a small reward is still a reward, and since Rhodes has some free time, he can conveniently kill him.

“Rhodes, aren’t we supposed to head to Stormwind immediately after we get back this time? How will you have time to hunt down Darkan?” Gianna asked, frowning, as she sat to the side.

Please, you are the Regent, the Grand Marshal of the Alliance, and the Vice-Commander of the Knights of the Silver Hand. You don't have time to hunt down a blood elf mage traitor.

What level of blood elf would require you to personally hunt them down? That would take a lot of face.

"It's alright, it's nothing. Her Highness's coronation ceremony isn't until more than a month away, so we can just take the land route, cross Eversong Forest, and return to Lordaeron," Rhodes said nonchalantly.

“But the problem is, Kael'thas’s men haven’t even located Darkan yet. Are you going to go search for him yourself?” Jaina said.

“Great Child of the Holy Light, if you are to deal with this evil necromancer, then I request to go into battle. My blade of holy light will purify him,” Fina, sitting next to Jaina, immediately spoke up.

Why should the Son of Light personally take action to defeat an evil necromancer? As members of the Knights of the Silver Hand, it is their duty to participate.

During her time with Rhodes, Fina received quite a few gifts; after all, she was Jaina's sister, and Rhodes was naturally generous with them.

First, Rhodes gifted her a set of armor and weapons made of anti-magic metal, making this female knight even more terrifying against mage-type professionals.

At the same time, she was also given two Holy Light Elementals that could exist permanently. These Holy Light Elementals could fly in the sky, serving as healers for priests and also as a source of vitality for paladins.

“No problem, I have a way to lure him out,” Rod said, popping a grape into his mouth.

At worst, we can go to Tarren Mill and find Anveena beforehand. Anveena, the embodiment of the Sunwell, will surely be able to lure Darkan out.

Then you can send out the Archangel of Light, or some other unit, to kill this guy.

Just as the group was arguing, a blood elf guard ran in.

"Your Highness, a red dragon has appeared, and he calls himself Krasus."

Chapter 272 Kyle's Fury, Rhodes the Charlatan

Upon hearing this, Kael'thas frowned. He naturally knew who Krasus was, after all, he was one of the members of the Council of Six of Dalaran.

They had some understanding of this person's true identity, after all, the person's appearance was that of a blood elf, or rather, a former high elf.

But why would a red dragon come looking for me, especially at a time like this?

“I understand. Go and invite Mr. Krasus in, and tell him I’ll be waiting for him here,” Kael’thas said after a moment’s thought.

Rhodes sat to the side, calmly taking a sip of fruit wine. It was like a pillow being delivered to someone who was sleepy. Krasus's arrival meant he could naturally find Anveena, after all, it was the one who turned Anveena into a human girl.

Furthermore, if one is able to successfully travel to 1 years ago, this person will be one of the companions, so it is important to establish a good relationship with them beforehand.

"Lord Rhodes, this Krasus's identity is very special. I must first explain to you that although he appears to be an elf, this is not our responsibility." Kael'thas intended to explain Krasus's identity to Rhodes before Krasus entered.

“I’m all ears, Kael’thas,” Rhodes said with a smile. Although he already knew Kael’thas’s true identity, he didn’t intend to reveal it. He couldn’t very well tell someone he was a transmigrator and knew their true identity, could he? It was best if Kael’thas told them himself.

“Krasus appears to be one of our blood elves, but he is not actually a blood elf. He is a true dragon from the Red Dragonflight, one of the five dragonflights, and is one of the consorts of the Red Dragon Queen. His real name is Kael'thas. Back in Dalaran, I gave him the identity of a high elven mage,” Kael'thas said.

Rhodes' expression was relatively calm, but Jaina and Fina were both surprised, never expecting that Chen Yan, the member of the Dalaran Council of Six, was actually a real dragon.

Since Kael'thas knew the other person's identity, did his teacher Antonidas also know his true identity?

“I see. I didn’t expect him to be from the Five-Colored Dragonflight. No wonder this mage disappeared after Dalaran was destroyed by Archimonde,” Rhodes said.

“Logically speaking, the five-colored dragonflight should not interfere with the lives of mortals, but the Burning Legion was clearly involved in the last Scourge, and it’s really hard to believe that they stood by and did nothing,” Kael’thas said with a sigh.

He thought Rhodes' words had a hidden meaning, that he was complaining that the five-colored dragons had not provided any help during the Burning Legion's invasion.

To be honest, he was also puzzled by this. Logically speaking, as the guardians of Azeroth, the five dragonflights should have participated in the war.

"Don't misunderstand Kyle, I didn't mean to blame the Five-Colored Dragon Legion," Rhodes said, waving his hand.

Why wouldn't they participate in the war? What else could it be? Isn't it just that Blizzard editors wouldn't allow it? It's inappropriate to force a reason.

“That’s good. The Red Dragonflight of Rhodes loves life and possesses the most powerful life force in Azeroth. Krasus is one of the best among them. You can have a good chat with him later.” Kael’thas nodded and said.

Soon, led in by a guard, a middle-aged man dressed in a red robe and resembling a high elf walked in, accompanied by a human girl who looked to be sixteen or seventeen years old with long golden hair.

The moment Kael'thas saw the girl, his expression changed, and he showed extreme surprise.

He sensed the presence of the Sunwell on this girl, as if he could even see the Sunwell itself. How could this be? Who exactly is this human girl?

Rhodes, sitting to the side, was also surprised. It was obvious who this girl with the aura of the Sunwell was—the famous Anvina.

Shouldn't this girl be living in Tarren Mill with her magically conjured parents? How did Krasus bring her here?

“This, this lady is…” Kael’thas frowned and looked at Krasus.

Jaina and Fina also felt that warm, pure, sun-like energy fluctuation, but not as clearly and deeply as Kael'thas.

This girl is so powerful. Her magic is extremely primal and pure, like the sun itself. When did such a powerful being appear among humanity?

Anveena, feeling somewhat shy under everyone's gaze, quietly hid behind Krasus, curiously observing everyone present.

Can I truly gain freedom? Will the High Elves, or rather the Blood Elves, really spare me, this essence of the Sunwell's magic?

“Don’t be afraid, Anvina, I’m here for you,” Krasus said, patting the girl on the shoulder behind him.

"I understand, mentor. I... I'm just a little nervous," Anvina said softly.

“Lord Krasus, or rather Lord Kael’thas the Red Dragon, I would like to ask you to explain the situation of the girl beside you. I want an answer,” Kael’thas said.

This girl is strange, very strange. What does Krasus mean by bringing her to Quel'Thalas at this time?

"Prince Kael'thas, Lord Rhodes, and Lady Jaina, please forgive my intrusion. First, please allow me, on behalf of the Red Dragonflight, to congratulate Quel'Thalas on the successful reconstruction of the Sunwell. This is not only a victory for the elves, but also a blessing for all of Azeroth." Krasus introduced himself, this time not concealing the fact that he was from the Red Dragonflight.

After Krasus finished speaking, he paused and gently placed his hand on Anvina's shoulder, indicating that the somewhat nervous girl did not need to be afraid.

"I came here mainly for her—Anvina."

Prince Kael'thas, you should have already sensed her unique aura. In fact, she has a very deep connection with the Sunwell, which you have just rebuilt.

“I would like to hear the details, Lord Krasus.”

Jaina and Fina were also very curious about the identity of this human girl. Who was she?

“No problem. As a descendant of the Sunstriders and the future King of the Blood Elves, Prince Kael'thas is entitled to know the truth.”

A year ago, when Arthas defiled and destroyed the Sunwell, the very essence of the well did not completely dissipate, but rather escaped.

I stumbled upon this vital energy that had already developed a faint consciousness. For various reasons… I used my life force to create this human body for her, granting her complete life and emotions, and allowing her to live peacefully in Tarren Mill, hoping to keep her away from conflict and let her live her life as an ordinary girl.

Upon hearing this, Jaina and Fina covered their mouths in disbelief. Was this for real? This girl looked like a human, but... she was actually the incarnation of the Sunwell.

Kael'thas, on the other hand, wore an expression that said, "I knew it." The moment he saw the girl, he had already made a guess.

"Lord Krasus, I have always maintained a good relationship with you and treated you with the utmost courtesy. Why didn't you send her here earlier, but instead chose this moment? Is it because we have already repaired the Sunwell?" Kael'thas was extremely annoyed.

If Krasus had sent the essence of the Sunwell earlier, many problems could have been solved, and the Blood Elf race wouldn't have had to suffer for over a year.

The Sunwell belongs to the high elves, to Quel'Thalas. What reason do you, red dragon, have to use life magic to transform it into an intelligent being?

“I’m sorry Kael’thas, I concealed this matter and didn’t even report it in detail to the Red Dragonflight, but I had my own reasons.”

However, my assessment at the time was that even if Anveena's essence returned, it wouldn't be enough to fully repair the Sunwell.

On the contrary, her existence might bring unknown risks, and more importantly, she is already an independent life. "Krasus said.

"Then our blood elf brethren who died during that year or so wouldn't be considered alive anymore, do you know that? If you had brought her back earlier..."

Or rather, don't meddle in other people's business. Use your life energy to let her give birth to self-awareness and wisdom. How important is this essence of the Sunwell to us? At this moment, Kael'thas was furious.

The three fire orbs floating around Kael'thas burst into flames, a sight that terrified Anveena, who once again hid behind Krasus, trembling with fear.

"Calm down, Your Highness."

"You tell me to calm down, but how can I calm down? You took my things and turned her into a living being. What's your reason for bringing her back now?"

"It's because we rebuilt the Sunwell that we no longer need it, and you want to monopolize its essence." Kael'thas seemed ready to attack at the slightest provocation.
