Chapter 225 Gag
From entering Dalaran to being kicked out... the time was neither short nor long, a full three days... Dalaran disappeared from its original location in the blink of an eye, and an entire city, a magical kingdom, vanished in an instant in the empty land, which was truly astonishing.
For three days, there was almost no rest. Lorraine and his apprentice faced life-or-death tests several times, and almost died each time.
If it weren't for sheer luck, or perhaps the blessing of the Queen or her 'godfather,' Lorraine might have already returned to dust along with countless Forsaken soldiers.
Fortunately, after several twists and turns, the mission to Dalaran seems to have been completed...
Having gained the approval of the founder of the Council of Tirisfal, and with the Guardian's Legendary Staff as a token, Lady Aegwynn shouldn't blame me for taking it back.
Lorraine felt that this should be considered fulfilling Lady Aegwynn's mission...
He met Master Merlin, whom Aegwynn wanted to rescue. Since Master Merlin wouldn't come out himself, a lowly mage like himself couldn't force him. Master Merlin stated his position: he represented certain old-timers who were willing to support Aegwynn in forming a new Council of Tirisfal, believing that absorbing a promising talent like Lorraine was a good thing.
What's new about the new Tirisfal Council?
The main issue is that only the undead predecessors Merlin & Winterwind and Aegwynn remain among the founders and elders... Is this a mysterious blessing of death that grants immortality to mortal mages?
Whether it was a curse or a blessing, even Master Merlin couldn't say. He could only keep the light of his humanity shining through the millennia, silently watching over everything in Dalaran.
Merlin's request for Lorraine to take back the Key to Karazhan represented the opinion of the Elders of the Council of Elders.
It also represents the Council of Tirisfal's hope for reconciliation with the Guardian family.
The trip to Karazhan was inevitable... The master had already explained the key points to his apprentice. Lorraine, however, had no time to concern himself with anything else.
He has personally achieved another promotion. The name of Lorraine, the Plaguebringer, is known far and wide... It will be difficult for him to keep a low profile from now on... He is one step closer to becoming a true archmage.
......
The pressing issue is a secret and mission unknown to his teacher, himself, and others. He came to Dalaran not merely to rescue people, nor to seize the city and gain favor with the Queen...
He was trying to find his teacher's eyes again.
To fulfill my godfather's instructions...
The seven-day limit has long since passed.
The adoptive father seemed to fall silent for the second seven days, especially after the master and apprentice left Shadowfang Keep. The uncontrollable headless knight who left in the blood moon in the sky seemed to have taken news of the adoptive father with him.
The master and apprentice pondered carefully, and in the first seven days they only found the Eye of Light.
They finally obtained the Shadow Eyes in the last three days, and it was the merging of these eyes that saved the master and disciple from danger. Finding a part of their body brought immeasurable benefits. Both master and disciple felt their power rapidly increasing...
They were really looking forward to seeing the results on the next area...
There was also some confusion and worry.
Although the Eye of Shadow came easily, the process of obtaining the complete Mirror of Truth was fraught with difficulties. During the rescue, the Eye of Shadow was in the hands of a strange man who, before dying, struggled to seize the achievement of Lorraine and her apprentice.
He questioned Lorraine, asking if she was sent by that person...
"Who is that person?"
The man's life energy was drained by the Eye of Shadow, everything was taken from him, and he was imprisoned in the deepest well beneath Dalaran for many years. According to the resentful memories flashing through the vengeful spirits the teacher sensed, someone desired the Eye of Light, as well as the body and internal organs of a god...
"Who imprisoned that unfortunate fellow again...?"
Could it be that someone else is looking for what the master and apprentice want?
......
Thinking hard!
The master and disciple had a vague feeling that their "godfather" had always been by their side.
Perhaps for some reason, the "godfather" was unable to issue a divine decree...
It seems to be avoiding something?
The thing that was sent on the mission of Lorraine and her apprentice was probably not just about playing a trick on their teacher...
There are other secrets behind this, but the master and disciple are still unable to access them. Perhaps after obtaining more body parts, the master and disciple will learn more about their godfather.
"No hints, how do I play?"
"Can't you play without prompts? I think you're used to mission guidance. Back in the day, your teacher and I would research and analyze missions on our own, get completely lost, and still manage to complete the adventure after many failures."
......
"No. Teacher, I think the situation is much more complicated now than before..."
"The world is inherently chaotic and full of temptations, big and small. Only by firmly adhering to your goals can you avoid being blinded by them."
......
"So, next, it's time to find the head? Teacher, where is your head?"
"I'm not a headless horseman...how would I know? My true form is currently a pair of glasses...the Mirror of Truth, which you're wearing on your face. Following this logic, my head might be a hat...my hands might be gloves, and my feet might be shoes. Based on what my adoptive father once said, the remaining parts must be some rather famous things. They must be some powerful artifacts that once existed..."
......
"Teacher, if your head were a hat, whose head would you wear it on?"
"Don't ask me... I don't know. My godfather seems to have gone silent lately... I don't know any clues either. We'll just have to take it one step at a time, things will work themselves out..."
The master and apprentice soaked in the lake, chatting idly about nothing...
Lorraine floated on the lake, as if lying in a warm bathtub, the water rippling and shimmering with silver light.
The moon peeked out from overhead again, and he felt a rare moment of relaxation.
The remaining adventures cannot be rushed.
Instead of panicking and being forced to use every means possible to barely survive when faced with powerful figures, strengthening oneself is the best strategy.
Being prepared is better than being complacent; the teacher's countermeasures were correct.
Looking back from the lakeside, the shore is close to Hillsbrad Foothills, with Ambermill, which he had captured, to the side, and the newly established frontline command post of Undercity behind him.
The Isle of Fenice is not far from here; the banner of Queen Sylvanas's Wall of Bones can be faintly seen...
The shores of Lake Lordamere have become the domain of the Forgotten.
Lorraine knew this lake all too well; it was Lake Lordamere, where he had hidden his skeletal beasts. Even now, he could sense that many of the vengeful spirits' summoned creatures still remained at the bottom of the lake...
Those skeletal beasts and skeleton warriors now seem somewhat lacking in combat power, and would be easily crushed in front of fully armed soldiers.
Dealing with some mindless beasts and civilians is quite easy.
With his underlings at the bottom of the lake, Lorraine felt somewhat at ease.
Falling from a height of ten thousand meters, an ordinary person would have died long ago. The mage possesses a divine skill called the Slow Fall Technique.
Light feathers are typically used as the casting material. The principle is to make the caster as light as a feather. This type of spell is quite common and belongs to the classic spells of the chemical transformation school in arcane magic.
Similarly, the Enhancement school uses magic powder to release magical boosts or debuffs...
Compared to the cursed straw dolls in troll sorcery, the magic of Dalaran is relatively gentle.
The evil abyss magic involved in the giant magic has borrowed the power of other unknown entities.
It is usually accompanied by sacrifices and blood sacrifices, producing strong negative effects.
The magic of Dalaran evolved from the magic of the past elves and the spells of primitive wizards, and developed new spells that benefit humanity.
The slow fall technique is a miraculous skill that can prevent a person from falling to their death from a great height.
Without light feathers, one cannot perform.
I've heard that the Holy Priest has a levitation spell with a similar effect, but it's even more amazing.
Having just been thrown from a height of 10,000 meters, Lorraine was caught off guard.
Fortunately, he had another mage's special skill, the Blink spell... similar to shrinking the distance, so he didn't fall to his death on the lake.
The teacher also woke up; he seemed to regain his senses as soon as he left the weak point in the space of Dalaran.
Switching bodies using the Mirror of Truth seems to have negative effects.
The accompanying invincibility effect has a certain chance of causing a brief split in the souls of the two beings, resulting in paralysis and unconsciousness for a certain period of time.
This can still be very dangerous at critical moments.
Next time, unless absolutely necessary, I shouldn't use the rewards my godfather gives me too frequently...
Divine artifacts should not be used lightly...
"Have you rested enough? Time to return to camp and collect your reward?"
"it is good!"
Lorraine happily stood up from the lake, wiggling like a puppy to shake off his fatigue and grime, and confidently walked towards the shore...
This time he really felt much more confident...
Even though he was still dressed in rags...
