Azeroth: Starting with Eagle Eye in the Necropolis.

Anveena placed her small, white hand on Kael'thas's forehead, and then, like Soram, tried to imprint the entire structure of the spell into Kael'thas's mind.

Kelsas immediately felt a terrifying force enter his head, making him feel dizzy and disoriented. But then a sun-filled, holy, and warm force protected his head.

He felt extremely comfortable, and a special spell appeared in his mind. With enough magic power, Kael'thas could easily cast this spell.

Rhodes, standing to the side, found this scene rather strange. In the world of Azeroth, it's not so easy for living beings to learn spells. Jaina had previously suffered excruciating pain just learning a level 1 spell.

It took her more than a month to learn the second one, but so far the female mage has not dared to try learning level 2 magic, while Kael'thas started with level 5 magic.

Logically, Kai should have been writhing in agony on the ground, but instead, his expression was slightly off at first, looking like he was in a lot of pain, but then he showed an expression of enjoyment.

“I’ve made some improvements. This ability makes learning spells very difficult for the brain, so I’ve added some holy light to neutralize it, which will make it a bit more comfortable,” Anvina said with a smile as she turned to Rhodes.

Rod's lips twitched. "You're such a sweetheart! Hand over this ability to me! Hurry up!"

"It really feels good. My mind is crystal clear now. I've learned this spell. Thank you, Anveena. That's enough for today. I'm leaving now." Kael'thas took a deep breath, then turned and left without looking back.

He needs to be alone to calm down.

“Brother, let’s go together. We can grab a drink; I need to calm down.” Rhode waved to Anvina and caught up with Kael’thas.

As for getting Anvina to pass on this spell to me, I'll think about that tomorrow! At least I don't want to get any more upset today.

"???" Anvina looked at the two leaving, feeling a little lost. Had she done something wrong?

Just then, Jaina returned from calming down outside. She felt something was off as she watched Kael'thas and Rhodes leave arm in arm.

“You’ve come at the right time, Jaina. I have a special spell I’d like to teach you,” Anvina said, waving her hand as she saw Jaina.

She's really eager to try out this special ability to teach magic; Jaina had previously mentioned wanting to learn lightning.

"Really? What kind of spell is it?"

Chapter 278 Leaving Silvermoon City, Riding a Chocobo to Reminisce about Lost Youth

"Thunderbolts, impending doom, the Fiery Wall, the Bloodlust Technique, summoning fire elementals—I can teach you anything you want to learn," Anvina said smugly.

Now she feels incredibly skilled; she can learn any spell just by looking at it. Jaina has taught her many frost spells these past two days, and although she's not good at them, she can still learn them just by looking at them.

"You mean you can now pass on those special Titan spells that Rhodes taught you, just like Soram!" Jaina's eyes widened in disbelief.

“That’s right, Jaina, I’m not a normal being. I’m the embodiment of the Sunwell. I am the purest magical energy, and I’m connected to the Sunwell. So please don’t judge me by common sense,” Anvina said with a grin.

Now she finally understood that she was not an ordinary girl; she possessed power that was difficult for ordinary people to attain, just like those legendary heroes.

What you need to learn for decades, I only need to glance at.

“Okay, I got it, but I probably can’t handle the last time my brain was hit by Rhodes’ spell, it almost blew up. I can only learn one spell every month or two, and now I can only learn level 1 spells.” Jaina shrugged helplessly.

"Don't worry, Jaina, I've improved this spell. Now you can learn these spells without any side effects, and your head won't hurt," Anvina said with a smile.

Besides the power of holy light, he also added some life energy. As for where the life energy came from? Please, he is the Sunwell, and he was created by the red dragon father using life energy. What's so special about having life energy?

In a hazy, dreamlike state, Anveena seemed to sense a connection between herself and the entire planet, an energy like that of her mother, her true mother. (The latest plot is utter nonsense. I've noticed that every time Blizzard gets a new editor, they want to overturn the previous editor's work. Now Azeroth isn't even a native planet-soul anymore; they say it's a goddess the Titans captured from somewhere else. But this book still uses the premise that Azeroth is a native planet, so that's it.)

“Oh, that’s great news.” Jaina’s lips twitched.

“Alright, Jaina, get ready. I’m about to teach you magic. This magic has been improved by me and can now permanently summon elementals, but it consumes a lot of mana. Under normal circumstances, it’s best if you just summon one or two elementals to fight.” After saying that, Anvina placed her palm on Jaina’s forehead.

An hour later, Jaina left the training ground somewhat dazed and went to where Rhodes and Kael'thas were drinking. She sat down silently, picked up the wine on the table, and drank it all in one gulp.

Clearly, another person has broken down today. Seeing the female mage's expression, Rhode knew that this girl had been hit hard again. Sometimes geniuses need to be suppressed by monsters!

"Rhodes, you mentioned at the banquet that we could use Anveena to lure out Darkan?" Kael'thas put down his wine glass and looked at Rhodes.

Rhodes had previously suggested that he participate in the hunt for Darkan, but the guy was not easy to find. However, things would be different if Anvina were involved.

Darkan was a blood elf mage who was extremely obsessed with power. He joined the Lich King only to gain power.

As the most powerful magical being in the world, Anveena is bound to attract the attention of this fallen mage. Rhodes had mentioned this to him in secret at the banquet, so Kael'thas wanted to finalize the matter.

If Princess Anveena could participate in this event and capture or kill the culprit who betrayed Silvermoon City, leading to the successful invasion of Arthas by the Scourge, she would certainly gain great prestige, making the Sunstrider family even more powerful.

Most importantly, it would allow this genius to distance himself from him for a few days, during which he would suffer a huge blow.

Now let the life of Azeroth see what a real monster is! Darkan, you're really unlucky.

Rhodes nodded. "That's right. Darkan's thirst for the power of the Sunwell is ingrained in his very bones. This kind of fanatical traitor would never give up any opportunity to obtain greater power."

As the embodiment of the essence of the old Sunwell, and also possessing a mysterious connection to the new well, Anveena herself is an irresistible 'treasure' to us. We can trust her to be used as bait.

Anveena is now able to crush over 99% of the mages in Azeroth in terms of magic. Even the Guardians, in terms of sheer magical power, might not be as strong as her.

Rhodes was no match for her at all, not to mention the speed at which she learned spells. In close combat, she could take down more than 90% of paladins and more than 99% of warriors.

Although the embodiment of the Sunwell appears to be a delicate and frail girl, she is a formidable force when she gets angry.

It is truly capable of tanking, dealing damage, healing, and outputting damage.

"With Anvina's current strength, plus your personal intervention, there's naturally no problem. But are you sure this guy will come?"

Although Anveena is the embodiment of the essence of the Sunwell and has connections to the new Sun Realm.

"But no one outside knows his true identity. How can you be sure he'll come looking for Anveena?" Kael'thas asked the crucial question.

Rhodes' idea was good, but Anveena's identity as the incarnation of the Sunwell could not be revealed; her current identity was that of the princess of the Sunstrider family.

“I have a brilliant plan, so you don’t need to worry about it. I’ll take care of it. After this mission is completed, I can take Anveena to Stormwind for a while before heading to Kalimdor,” Rhodes said with a smile.

How to lure Darkan out? Is that even a question? Darkan had already discovered Anvina's identity long ago.

“Then I’ll leave it to you, Rhodes. I’m very much looking forward to seeing this traitor’s head,” Kael’thas nodded and said.

"Don't worry, it'll be fine." Rhodes gave Kael'thas a reassuring look.

Early the next morning, Rhode met Anvina again. This time, Rhode accepted Anvina's magical instruction and successfully learned the magic that could permanently summon fire elementals, as well as the normal summoning version.

Now, with his advanced fire magic, Rhodes can summon more than 70 permanent fire elementals or more than 30 holy light elementals every day.

Rhodes also tentatively explained the level 5 magic he had learned in the Royal Tomb City—Summon Earth Elemental—this time without complete magic runes or scrolls.

Anvina unfortunately failed to learn the magic, which made Rhodes feel a little better; you can never beat someone with cheat codes.

After learning the spells, Rhodes told Anveena his purpose: this time he would take Anveena away from Quel'Thalas.

"That's how it is, Anveena. What do you think? Would you like to come with me to defeat the traitor Darkan in Quel'Thalas, and then travel with me to Stormwind and Kalimdor after the campaign?" Rhodes asked.

"Thank you so much, Lord Rhodes. I would be happy to leave here and go with you to defeat Darkan and those evil enemies."

"To be honest, I don't really like living here. I prefer the kind of earthen houses that humans live in. I'm not quite used to this fancy elven decor." Anvina nodded happily and said.

"That's great. Get ready, and we'll set off. By the way, when summoning fire elementals, you can actually add some holy light energy. Although it will consume more, it will summon holy light elementals that are more powerful than fire elementals, which are most effective against demons, undead, and shadow creatures." Rhodes gave a brief reminder before leaving.

Summoning fire elementals is more effective when dealing with large groups of enemies, but when dealing with demon shadows or undead warriors, holy light elementals are definitely the most effective.

Anveena can now connect with the newly formed Sunwell and summon extremely powerful and pure holy light elements, making this move perfect for her.

After a quick packing, that afternoon, Rhodes, along with Jaina, Anveena, and Fina—three Nanas in total—left Quel'Thalas.

Everyone praised the Quel'Thalas Strider, a special mount gifted by Kael'thas. It was a unique mount exclusive to blood elves, larger than an ostrich with thicker hind legs, capable of transporting creatures. Slender elves preferred to ride this creature.

However, after riding this mount, Rhodes always missed another work.

Rod once played it for a long time; it was the famous Final Fantasy. In every Final Fantasy game, if you don't ride a chocobo, it's just too tacky.

Rhodes' first Final Fantasy game was Final Fantasy X, which he played on PS2. Later, he played the PC version and the remastered version VII.

This creature has even replaced horses to some extent, running very quickly, and its fuel consumption per 100 kilometers only requires feeding it some carrots or grass.

This time, Rhodes' party consisted of only four people, and they didn't even bring the ranger troops that Kael'thas had prepared.

Dealing with just one Darkan is easy. Even if he recruits a bunch of scoundrels, they're just a disorganized rabble that can be wiped out with a wave of the hand.

In the entire world of Azeroth, no one could escape unscathed from facing their combination.

Chapter 279 Returning to Tarren Mill and Darkan's Strength

"Wow! It runs so smoothly, much more comfortable than the horses in Tarren Mill!" Anveena Sunstrider, the newly crowned blood elf princess, excitedly grabbed the feathers behind the chocobo's neck and shouted happily. Freed from the constraints of the court, she appeared exceptionally lively.

The little girl rode her chocobo at breakneck speed, enjoying this rare freedom. Back in Talomir, she had been restrained by the illusory parents who had never allowed her to leave the vicinity.

This was the first time he had ever run freely and unrestrainedly across the fields, and the feeling was simply wonderful.

Jaina smiled helplessly at the lively Anveena, then spurred her chocobo to ride alongside Rhodes. "Rhodes, are you sure Darkan will show up? Our current route seems to be along the edge of the Death Scar."

“He will definitely come. Darkan’s thirst for power has warped his mind. He’s like a hyena with a keen sense of smell, and he will never let go of any energy source that might make him stronger.”

"And Anvina... to him, is a walking treasure trove of energy," Rhodes said with a smile.

“I understand. You plan to use Anvina as bait to lure the snake out of its hole, but do we need to do some disguise?”

Or perhaps Anvina could tone down that… well, that overly ‘dazzling’ aura emanating from her?” Jaina nodded and asked.

Rhodes' lips curled into a meaningful smile: "No, quite the opposite, we need to make her 'shine,' otherwise no one will see her."

As a former top mage of the high elves, Rhodes would definitely be able to spot him and Anveena's people if they appeared near Tarren Mill. Even if he didn't spot them, Rhodes could use his earth-penetrating magic to find them.

In the original timeline, this person should already be secretly assembling a force composed entirely of undead Scourge.

Moreover, they had already sensed the energy of the remaining essence of the Sunwell and secretly locked onto Anvina and her group.

Darkan is quite powerful; in the final part of the Sunwell trilogy, he even defeated both Sylvanas Windrunner and Krasus.

The comic also features a famous scene of the Queen being hung up by Darkan.

In the end, he wouldn't have been defeated if Anveena hadn't unleashed the Sunwell, burning him to ashes with its energy. And in the end, he was resurrected, albeit with a weakened energy.

It was only later that it became an elite monster in The Burning Crusade, where it was easily killed by players. By this time, Darkan had been resurrected many times, and its strength was far inferior to its peak.

If Rhodes didn't use his disguise technique to slightly conceal her, the energy emanating from Anvina would be felt by top-tier mages even from a great distance.

The paladin could also sense the holy light energy emanating from Anvina.

"I understand your plan. Is that guy named Darkan from Rhodes really that strong?"

"Well, if we're just talking about magical power, he's not much weaker than Kel'Thuzad, after all, he was once a top high elf mage." After referring to Kel'Thuzad's performance in the Sunwell trilogy, Rhodes gave a fairly fair assessment.

Kel'Thuzad's magic was indeed powerful, but he was not the top mage in Azeroth. He was only on par with Darkan in his prime. However, he was unwilling to obey the Lich King's orders and always wanted to work on his own.

Just then, Arthas ascended the Frozen Throne, which weakened his control over undead creatures. At the same time, Illidan's actions weakened the Lich King's power, allowing him to escape control.

"Similar to Kel'Thuzad, then it seems there's nothing to worry about," Jaina said with a light snort.

When she first met Rhodes, he was hunting down Kel'Thuzad alongside Arthas. At that time, Kel'Thuzad hadn't shown much power and was easily killed by the three of them.
