28. Extinguished Sun---For the Eight Gods Illusory Brothers【3/7】
Queldanas Island, ten minutes after the seed of life erupted.
This most important stronghold in Quel'thalas, the place where the Sun Well, the most important treasure of the entire high elf race, is now completely gone.
The huge ornate complex built around the Sun Well has been demolished by the vines dancing in the air, and the remaining two-thirds are also in danger under the wild power of the rapid proliferation of the seeds of life.
If possible, Terion would not have thrown the seeds of life with endless troubles into the Sunwell so hasty, but the problem is that he currently lacks enough deterrent power. The Eye of Sargeras can of course easily level the entire Quel'thalas, but that thing has more important uses. In addition, there is also power from the Burning Legion inside the Undead Natural Scourge. Before everything is settled, Terion does not want his connection with Ner's Zu to be exposed.
This means that there are many, many methods that cannot be used.
The most important thing is that neither Ner's Zuzu nor Terion wanted the Well of the Sun to fall into the hands of the Burning Legion so easily. However, when ensuring that the Lich King is not exposed, once the plan is opened, facing the inclination of the undead in the north, a Quel'thalas cannot stop such a force at all. So after many discussions, Terion and the Lich King made up their minds.
Destroy the Sun Well!
However, even if it is destroyed, there are many ways. Terion can forcibly detonate it. However, once the huge magic power bursts out, it may completely destroy the entire terrain of Quelthalas, and even affect the situation in the northern border. This is something that neither side wants to see, so the destruction must be in a more "softer" way. This is also the purpose of Terion infiltrating Quelthalas alone when he only informs Mela.
He can guarantee that he will not be discovered by the legion's eyewitness in natural disasters. Before the legion's power arrives, the rapidly evolving seed of life will suck the magic power accumulated by the Sun Well for thousands of years in a short period of time, causing the well to be temporarily scrapped.
The advantage of doing this is that the Sunwell connects the magic nodes underground in Quel'thalas. As long as the continent itself is not destroyed, sooner or later, the Sunwell will be full of magic again. But at that time, the one who controls the Sunwell will no longer be the High Elves of Quel'thalas.
This is the best of both worlds, and the most important thing is that you can easily throw the blame to another group of people with this method.
"Clang"
The magical golden well water of the Sun Well has been absorbed by the greedy seeds. The powerful magic accumulated over thousands of years has given it enough nutrients. It almost destroyed the seeds of life in the ecological environment of the Drano world. After its complete recovery, it began to burst out its powerful abilities in another world.
In the ruins of the inner hall where the Sunwell was directly destroyed, under the scattered bricks and stones, plants that appeared invisibly began to grow rapidly. In just over a dozen minutes, huge sprouts appeared in every place on the entire Queldanas Island.
Moreover, these "green natural disasters" are growing at a rate visible to the naked eye. These plants are full of aggressiveness. Whether it is the tall city walls or the artificial buildings of the elves, they are swallowed up from the bottom by vines and trees. The tide of plants triggered by the seeds of life is like an unstoppable explosion of life. In a very short time, the artificial buildings on the entire island are like completely erased by an invisible big hand.
This situation is based on the collapsed Sunwell as the center and spreads to all directions to the entire island. At the very center of the origin of life, the situation at the Sunwell well is extremely bad. The green, thick vines with golden magic patterns on the surface have stopped destructive action after the early vines ended, just like the pillars of the Temple of Life, using those vines to support a unique life structure in the ruins.
The hardened vines hung the entire ruins. In the shining of the golden magic patterns on the surface of the vines, more branches grew from the main body of the vines and spread in all directions. Soon a strange "tree of life" was supported in the ruins of the Sun Well.
Those corpses...the bodies of the phoenix guards who died in this sudden outbreak of plant disaster were slowly covered by the branches of vines, as if they were "swallowed" by this strange plant. Their flesh and blood will be swallowed up under the cover of this branch, becoming insignificant nutrients for the new plant forest.
It can be said that the corpse is gone...
In the hollow beneath the super life tree constructed by plants, the magic patterns of the vines shine with faint light in the darkness. Looking up, it seems like they are in a special "starry sky". In this dim and vast hollow, the battle between the Sun King and the Dark Blade King is still not over.
The two were separated for a moment when the origin of life broke out, but what happened later, the collapse and destruction of the entire Sunwell completely angered Anastarien. When he realized that the magic power accumulated in the Sunwell for thousands of years had been completely consumed, and most of the loyal warriors who followed him died tragically under this green disaster, the Sun King had already cut off his thoughts of leaving.
"I'm going to kill you! Terion! Did you hear that? I'm going to kill you!"
Anastarien's life of more than 3,000 years has never been as angry as he is now, and has never been as ruthless as he is now. A huge amount of magic shines outside his robe, blowing his long hair up, and amid the desperate and angry roars, a ball of flames as gorgeous and dangerous as a phoenix bursts wildly in the direction of Terion.
The scorching flames fell on the vines of the Tree of Life and would even continue to burn. In just a few minutes, the dim hole was covered by the rays of the flames.
This is the bone-breaking wrath of a top mage. Under this desperate explosion, even the King of the Dark Blade, who masters the power of frost, has to avoid the edge for a while. However, without the suppression of the Sunwell on his own power, his speed is extremely fast, like a flexible night bat, jumping back and forth in the hole under the tree of life. Those sprinkled flame spells could hardly touch his body.
"Look at the advantage, Sun King."
While dodging easily, Terion shouted to Anastarien standing on the ground:
"I destroyed the Sun Well, but actually untied the constraints of the high elves. Do you know what made us stick to a corner of the continent for 6,800 years? With our magical qualifications and magical skills, it is us, not humans, who ruled this continent!"
"The sun well has shaped us, but it also binds us, like a warm nest, and you don't have to worry about threats from the whole world when you stay in it, but you have to remember that the Sun King, children cannot stay in the nest forever. One day, they will learn to prey on their own! I just pushed this process, this necessary procedure...you should thank me!"
"grateful?"
Anastarien laughed in anger, his shrill voice sounded in the fire that burst out in the darkness:
"You destroyed the foundation on which the high elves depend on, you destroyed the future of your own people! Demon addiction... Without the Sun Well, Demon addiction will completely destroy us! You, the extermination of the tribe who brings disaster! I will kill you here today!"
As the words came, a huge phoenix flame swelled in the hands of the Sun King. It was like an elemental creature with its own life, whistling and slapped its wings among the gorgeous firelight, and pounced towards the King of the Dark Blade in the sky.
Seeing the phoenix flames mixed with endless burning heat coming towards him, Terion, who was floating in the air, moved his shoulders. He pulled out the two unusual swords behind him with his backhand. Between the left and right, heavy and cold death energy burst out. A winter-like storm wrapped around Terion's body. He stepped on the vine's feet and jumped, causing his body to smash straight towards the phoenix rushing down from below.
"Bang"
The collision of flames and ice burst out with a chaotic aftermath of energy, causing the entire huge tree of life to tremble for a moment. In the shrill sound of the sky, the huge phoenix of flames was completely cut open from the center. Between the halo and explosion of the flames, Terion's figure fell from the sky and landed steadily on the front of Anastarien.
He looked at the Sun King in front of him, and the golden magic that wrapped around his body had become thinner, which made Terion raise his eyebrows. He dodged a shrill magma fireball. With his feet intertwined, the black figure rushed to Anastarien like a phantom. The Sun King roared and raised the magic sword in his hand. A gorgeous halo of flame wrapped his body together with his weapon.
The temperature of the two battles increased wildly. In between each weapon collision, the sparks bounced out were as hot as magma. The Sun Chaser royal family was not a simple spellcaster, whether it was King Anastarien or his only son Kelthas. The Sun Chaser had a very skillful sword technique, and the special magic sword of the high elves could give the mage an advantage in both range and melee battles.
The special flaming bloodline of the Sun Chaser family can allow them to cover their bodies with the extreme high temperature, and the legendary magic sword in the hands of the Sun King, he almost did not lose any disadvantage in the melee battle with Terion, but the mage is always a mage. Rolling up his sleeves to fight with the warriors and the Death Knight is not what they should do.
After another collision of the three weapons, amid the laughter of Terion, the cold force eroded the flame guards to the limit. With the crackling sound, the Sun King's flame shield was finally stripped away, and the King of the Dark Blade stepped forward, and the weather in his hand flew over Anastalian's wrist. With an extreme buzzing, the Sun King's body suddenly disappeared. When he appeared again, he was already standing on the ground outside the battlefield.
In the joyful hum of apocalypse, Terion turned around and looked at the breathless Sun King, who saw the pain in the Sun King's eyes, and he said:
"This weapon not only destroys the body, it also pierces the soul, and the wounds of the soul cannot heal. Anastarien, you lose."
The Sun King endured the great mental pain. The Apocalypse teared off a small piece of his soul. Although it was not fatal, the pain of this soul still made him unable to concentrate anymore. He supported his body with a magic sword covered with flames in his hand. He stretched out his hand to cover the wound on his wrist. The wound was frozen on the outside, and the flesh and blood that was cut inside was shining with strange dark green liquid. Obviously, there was a certain kind of poison attached to the sword.
What's even more terrible is that after losing the magic support of the Sunwell and fighting with the King of the Dark Blade, the magic power in the King of the Sun's body has almost dried up. In his blood and bones, an unprecedented emptiness and hunger slowly rose.
"Devil addiction! Right?"
Terion did not pursue the victory. He stood there and inserted the sword emissary of the Ashes back into the scabbard behind him. He looked at the silent Sun King and asked in a low voice:
"You feel the addiction to demons, the hunger that crawls in the bone marrow, the curse of the high elf innate, you feel it... It seems that I don't need to defeat you anymore. After losing the Sun Well, you will be defeated by yourself."
"Don't think about it!"
Anastarian's arms began to tremble. He stared at Terion and quietly took out a quaint scroll written in Saras from the storage ring between his fingers. He looked back at the huge dark tree of life behind him. After a moment of hesitation, he shouted loudly:
"I have heard some stories about you. You always boast that you will establish a new era... In the occasional thinking, I can vaguely see the footprints of the dark blade commanded by you... You didn't think about completely extermination of humanity, right?"
"No."
Terion strolled forward, he said:
"You may not believe it, but I do not have any malice towards you, except this time... You hurt my wife, the person I cherish the most... My mother died in this land. I cannot point the butcher knife at the people she once protected, but I can pour my anger on this land... I will destroy your country, and after being displaced, the high elves will also usher in their own judgment."
"Those who are strong enough, hopeful, and able to persist are qualified to survive!"
Terion stood in front of Anastarien, and he raised the apocalypse in his hand and looked at the Sun King in front of him:
"Now, do you have any last words to say?"
"Bang"
The legendary sword in the hands of the Sun King was inserted at the feet of Terion. He lowered his head and leaned against the trunk behind him in the pain of the demon addiction. He said:
"If you can survive the purgatory storm that burns everything, please replace me and hand the Fiery Strike to Kelthas and tell him..."
"Tear"
The scroll in the Sun King's hand was torn apart at this moment, and a ball of flame jumped out of the scroll, and between the flames shining, Anastari closed his eyes.
"He is the next...Sun King!"
"boom"
The purgatory storm, stored in the scroll, released by the first Sun King Dasrema himself, sprinkled out in the beating of flames. The scorching aperture swallowed the bodies of Terion and the Sun King in an instant, and the plants surrounding them let out overwhelmed moans under the pouring of the most terrifying flame magic of the highest level.
Amid the panic, a low voice suddenly rang:
"No, you can actually hand over this sword to your son."
"And, welcome to join the ranks of forgetting kings with your loyal guardians... Anastarien, the Sun Chaser, you and the ghosts behind you, will witness the destruction of Quel'thalas with your own eyes. This is my oath, I do not want to break the contract!"
