Chapter 573 The Effect of Adding 1 to All Attributes
According to rumors, the Supreme One Commandment has siblings. These rumors also suggest that if there is a Supreme One Commandment, there is a Supreme Two Commandment, and vice versa. However, there are no Supreme Three Realms or Four Commandments, because the Three Realms and the Realm of Death were devoured by the Supreme Five Commandments...
Who is Xiaodao? I don't know...
Anyway, the Supreme Ring is just a very basic, ordinary ring.
It looks like an ordinary gold ring, except that it is engraved with magic patterns, which are said to be the writing of demons.
In another world, the One Ring has another name: the One Ring, also known as the Ring of Domination... It also has siblings, but it can control the other Rings. The other Rings have magical powers when worn, while the One Ring is a cheat device that the Dark Lord created for himself. It can control those who wear the rings and eventually turn them into slaves of the rings, becoming Ringwraiths, or vengeful spirits controlled by the rings.
The thing in Lorraine's hand was a reward given to her by Mr. Marcus. During that quest, Lorraine gave Marcus a package to take away for the first time, apparently heading towards Hearthglen, the stronghold of the Scarlet Crusade.
General Marcus said he wanted to prove something to the Scarlet Crusade, but nothing came of it. Later, Marcus met Admiral Barry, the commander of the Scarlet Fleet, but the reason for their meeting remains unclear.
In any case, most of the Scarlet Crusade's high command did not accept Marcus's peace proposal, and the Forsaken army and the Scarlet Crusade remain mortal enemies.
The die-hard Scarlet Crusade members are still holding out in the northern deadlands, fighting the Scourge alone, and even attacking messengers and warriors from the Horde and the Alliance. They condemn the divided Argent Crusade, believing that the Argent Dawn is inviting trouble and that the dream of restoring Lordaeron has become a mere illusion.
The Lordaeron Restoration Front is still lobbying among the human kingdoms, attempting to regroup and break the current rudimentary truce agreement between the so-called Eastern Kingdoms.
......
Putting everything else aside, Lorraine clearly remembered the Supreme Ring, which her teacher highly praised. It seemed like a piece of trash, with all attributes increased by 1. However, her teacher said that it had some hidden significance. The 1 was 100%, a 100% increase in luck. Wouldn't that mean double the drop rate that everyone wanted, guaranteeing the appearance of a divine artifact?
As it turns out, the drop rate in Lorraine wasn't low; I got most of the good items from defeating enemies. Unfortunately, most of them either ended up gathering dust in my inventory or I didn't even have time to tell if they were artifacts usable by mages.
The result of over-reliance on artifacts is that the various treasures that were originally needed to be used together in different situations become so numerous that only the Mirror of Truth remains as a source of dependence.
Even the original merfolk relics, the Tide Amulet and the Orb of Deception, were gradually forgotten by Lorraine...
Love the new and get tired of the old?
No, no, no, the main problem is that the things that came out later were too overpowered, which undoubtedly made the original ancient treasures seem rudimentary and useless. This situation is very common in Azeroth. Not only have gold coins depreciated to scrap metal, but artifacts have also met the same fate. This undoubtedly made the nostalgic teacher feel sorry for them, and left the frugal Lorraine at a loss.
I only use the Ice Ring occasionally; clothes, pants, belts, hats, etc., are optional. I always look like a beggar, utterly disheveled every time. I have no time to care about my appearance; I'm not a fairy...
Wearing makeup before a major battle?
Do you really think you can defeat a ferocious enemy just by striking a pose? Verbal attacks can be effective, but they're only a small part of the equation, and some are even just misleading...
Lorraine, however, struck a very stylish pose at this moment...
The rune's right eye was activated at its maximum power after a long time, and all the suppressed abilities and power were unleashed. Not to mention, Lorraine felt a sense of triumph. Countless vengeful spirits flew out of the rune prison, which had been thirsting for life. The high-level vengeful spirits, which had been healing for a long time and were now fully saturated, were looking for new bodies to ascend to the status of one of the twelve Death Lords.
Necromantic runes have been suppressed for a long time...
The previous losses were nothing. Lorraine thought he had suffered a huge loss, but in reality, for the Necromancer's Right Eye, it was a reshuffling and a clean sweep. Only with more vengeful spirits fighting and devouring each other could a stronger Ghost King be born in the Ghost Lands...
Lorraine was unaware that its eyes revealed a world—a world of death, a cage, another small realm of ghosts.
In the darkness, the adoptive father cleverly bestowed the necromancer runes upon the master and disciple, but only Lorraine and his disciple were able to make them shine.
......
The original owner of the necromancer was awakened and cried out, "My necromancer!"
"My necromancy runes!"
"Its necromancy?"
Lorraine and Kel'Thuzad were separated by an ocean and countless mountains, yet they both uttered the same words. Lorraine even faintly heard her teacher's weak voice, though she wasn't sure if it was just a hallucination.
Kel'Thuzad has awakened. The Lich King placed it in an ice coffin to nurture it. Last time on the Isle of Atonement, the High Lich King, along with a group of his minions, came on a fierce mission to reclaim the Faceless One's true form, which the Lich King had always wanted to capture.
The Lich King sought to grasp the truth of flesh and blood, and to create the Old Gods himself. He drew upon the secret knowledge of the entire universe from Ner'zhul's memories, from the Titans, from the Pantheon, and from the Dark Titans.
The only one who knows all this is the blind man hiding in the Outer Realms, who, like him, has obtained the secrets of the Dark Titan.
They are the true protagonists of this world. Souls from another realm, like Lorraine and even his teacher Lorraine, even if they forcibly acquired bodies and adventured across Azeroth, are merely supporting characters...
Of course, the player character never considers himself a supporting character.
Lorraine gave herself the pseudonym Barbaras & Squinty Eyes. She originally wanted to call herself Barbaras & Evil Eyes because it seemed more imposing, but she was just imitating her teacher. Her teacher, Lorraine, had previously used the pseudonym of the bard Barbaras & Footman.
The name of Barbaras's men has become known throughout the Alliance nobility because of the Black Dragon Princess's incarnation, Countess Katarina. They jokingly say that any man who gets targeted by the Black Widow will suffer the consequences.
After all, Countess Katarina's status and wealth were acquired through marrying into a noble family. Aside from the Alliance Regent Bolvar & Fordragon, who are currently in relatively good health, almost every noble from the kingdom who had an affair with the Black Dragon Princess met a violent end...
Bolvar's fate seemed sealed; with King Varian's sudden return, his status had declined. However, Bolvar was surprised to find that the long-absent King Varian seemed like a completely different person—gentle and refined...
He actually took a liking to Katarina and praised the countess highly, which made Bolvar feel uneasy and also aroused some suspicion.
King Varian is a romantic and not exactly gentle. On the contrary, as a typical Arms Warrior and Fury Warrior, he was trained by his uncle, the former Alliance Marshal Lothar, and also apprenticed under the Mountain King. He is a young king who experienced the fall of Stormwind, the Battle of Blackrock Mountain, and the rebuilding and coronation of Stormwind. His temperament is comparable to a wild wolf...
Upon returning, he became somewhat timid.
The only familiar and pleasing thing was that young Prince Anduin was overjoyed; he felt his father had become gentler and more approachable. Since the accident that resulted in the queen being stoned to death during the stonemasons' riot, his father had been unusually calm...
This is good news for Stormwind; the Alliance's political situation is stable for a time, as it appears, and the Alliance seems to have regained its core leadership...
However, the situation in the Eastern Kingdoms and Kalimdor across the ocean is not stable, and the army of the dead is not at ease either.
It was all just the calm before the storm. The high command of both the Alliance and the Horde seemed acutely aware of the future; even the Queen's brief death remained unknown within the Horde, except for the blood elf mages of Silvermoon City who sensed the impending conspiracy. The crisis in Undercity and Silvermoon City never abated...
Lorraine thought he had found refuge in Kalimdor, but the whirlpools of the Endless Sea would pull him back to reality...
At this moment, the runic right eye reactivated, summoning a new Death Lord, like a signal... Kel'Thuzad's awakening was also a significant event. Kel'Thuzad wanted to extract Lorraine's vision, but it discovered that the Eye of Ice it had bestowed upon a minor necromancer seemed to be suppressed by some force...
"This is impossible! Could it be Romans's power? No, his magic isn't enough to contend with the great necromancy..."
Kel'Thuzad couldn't for some reason activate the power of the Eye of Ice. He clearly remembered planting it specifically on Lorraine and even replicating it on the ancient necromancer's right eye, doubly empowering it and hoping for the day the necromancer's rune would evolve into a higher-level rune, or even the ultimate rune...
However, things did not go as he wished. Just like the battle on Redemption Isle, the Scourge not only lost a war fortress, but also suffered heavy losses in combat power. Two Death Knights took the opportunity to escape, and the disappearance of Mograine, the leader of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse, was particularly important.
Kel'Thuzad couldn't even explain this to the Lich King...
