Rise of the blood elves

"when"

Everyone was silent all the way. In addition to the footsteps of the guards, the corridor also echoed with the sound of Magister Carlyle's staff hitting the ground heavily.

Carlyle is old and has some inconvenience in his legs and feet. The staff is his crutch, his third leg.

It took a lot of effort for him not to be left behind.During this time Norton followed him slowly and without saying a word.

At first, he noticed that Magister Carlyle was also following him. Leonard gritted his teeth and glanced at Norton, as if he was resentful of this "colleague" who was in the same camp as himself but had the same evil intentions as himself, but he didn't. What to say, I just walked faster.

"Strange, why do I always feel like someone is spying on us secretly?"

After walking for a while, Leonard touched the cold hair on the back of his neck, looked around, and then glanced back at the guards behind him. Seeing that everyone was looking at him with doubts, he pretended to be natural. He said "nothing", scratched his round belly, and continued walking with his head buried in a funny posture.

It has to be said that this pot-bellied magister is a complete anomaly among the blood elves. He has a [-]% chance of turning heads wherever he goes.

Blessed by the magic power of the Sunwell, the blood elves are in good health, immune to common diseases, and their bodies have strong self-regulation capabilities.Normal people rarely appear too thin or too obese.

Leonard's weight is almost as heavy as the two, which is very, very rare among the blood elves.

His belly has also been a hot topic for all the busybodies.The belly has almost become Leonard's label. As long as the "Big Belly Magister" is mentioned, no one will know about this crappy mid-level mage who relied on his family's influence to join the ranks of magisters.

"Ha, you said that our beloved Magister Leonard has several babies in his belly."

"I think they are at least twins."

"Well, that makes sense."

Everyone soon arrived at the small courtyard located in the northern part of the Sunwell Highlands that the prince had provided to the guide Anselon for recuperation.

The two guards standing guard outside the door immediately stepped forward, first bowed respectfully to Leonard, the leader, and asked: "Dear Master Magister, this is the residence of Sanxi's family, may I ask?"

They are all elite royal guards dispatched by the prince from his own escort team. They are not only powerful, but also know etiquette and how to treat others, and behave in accordance with royal etiquette.

Leonard directly took out a piece of parchment and said, "Arrest warrant from the Silver Moon Council."

After saying that, he signaled to the guards behind him to push open the door of the small courtyard.

"Please wait."

The royal guard stopped in front of the door and winked at his companion. The other royal guard nodded and ran away quickly.He himself took the arrest warrant, scanned it at a glance, and said: "The arrest of the Kingdom's serving magister requires an order signed by the Sun King himself. The arrest warrant privately issued by the Silver Moon Council does not have any legal effect. What's more, Lun Lord Nader, the seal on this arrest warrant belongs only to Lord Randolph, the patriarch of the Suiyun family. I'm sorry, I can't let you do what you want."

He raised his head fearlessly and looked straight at Leonard in front of him.His left hand touched the door without leaving any trace, and the magic lock on the door clicked and locked.

Leonard couldn't help but feel a little irritable.That damn guy went to fetch reinforcements. How could he not know?

The island of Quel'Danas is still firmly in the hands of the "remnant party" loyal to the prince, with more than 1000 elite soldiers, more than 200 quasi-high-level mages, and almost all of the leaders are new sects.This is a powerful armed force that no one can ignore. It protects the entire island with an iron wall, and the conservative nobles cannot get in at all.

They would definitely not allow the Silver Moon Council to privately arrest the family members of the prince's most trusted third magister.

Before leaving, Chancellor Randolph gave many instructions, asking him to take Angmar's family away quickly without disturbing anyone. To do this, he would not hesitate to even if a bloody conflict broke out, and he would find a way to calm down the aftermath later. That’s the impact.

Of course, if you have the opportunity, it is also good to cut a branch from the sacred tree and take it away.It's just that this plan didn't come true. Who knew it was so late and the old Carlyle guy was still there.

Therefore, the twenty guards he brought were almost all high-level elite warriors, and there were also several surrendered spellbreakers among them. They could be called an extremely elite tactical team.

"Stop!" Just as another royal guard was about to disappear into the corridor, several guards brought by Leonard suddenly ran out from the corner and blocked him with weapons.

Seeing this, Leonard felt relieved and didn't want to bother. He took two steps back, waved his hand to the guards behind him, and was about to force his way in.

The sound of weapons being unsheathed was heard everywhere. Not only the guards behind him drew their weapons, but also the royal guard in the distance who rushed to report the news. The atmosphere became tense in vain, and a small-scale bloody conflict was about to break out.

At this moment, an old voice was heard from behind: "Leonard, do you even want to despise my authority?"

Magisters Carlyle and Norton Lan Kong slowly stepped forward and blocked the door.

Carlyle is an epic powerhouse who has been famous for a long time. Although he is old, he still cannot be underestimated.As for Norton, he is also a strong man who has entered the epic level for the first time. Both of them are hundreds of times stronger than Leonard, who only has high-level elite strength.

Seeing that his "allies" on the same front were on the opposite side of him, although Leonard was angry, there was no surprise in his eyes. He snorted coldly: "Norton, Speaker Randolph has long known that your Lan Kong family has evil intentions. So we made two preparations.”

Without any signal from him, the four spellbreakers in the team immediately struck first.

Carlyle and Norton only saw a flash of magic light on the palms of the "ordinary" guards, and the magic power in their bodies suddenly became chaotic, and their spirits also appeared in a brief trance.

It was too late, but all of this actually happened in a short moment.When the two epic mages woke up, several sharp swords were already placed on their necks, making them swallow the spells on their lips.

Looking at the two royal guards, they were all restrained by strong hands several times their own. The one in the distance was knocked unconscious. Several "guards" grabbed his legs and dragged him back.

"Law Breaker" Carlyle and Norton both had bitter expressions.

Although one of the two is an old scholar mage and the other is a "neither learned nor skilled" mage, neither of them is good at fighting, and their real strength is slightly lower than the level, but they are also real epic powerhouses.

The main reason for being momentarily controlled by others was that the two were confident enough to make Leonard retreat, without any defense at all.

Blood Elf Spellbreakers are specially trained to counteract mages, and this is what they are good at.With preparations in advance and at a very close distance, it is not difficult to restrain two epic mages who are not good at fighting and have a lax spirit, and then follow up to seize the vital points and completely cut off the two people's room for resistance. .

The mage himself is extremely fragile. If he cannot keep a clear head at all times and be alert to the dangers lurking around him, even a legendary powerhouse will most likely make a mistake. If a mage is so careless, he may die in the middle before he can advance to the legendary realm. On the way.

"Norton, do you think Speaker Randolph can't see the Lan Kong family's little thoughts?"

Leonard glanced at Norton and raised his head to his subordinates. Soon someone came forward and tied the two of them tightly with magic-forbidden ropes.After leaving the four lawbreakers to guard the two, he led the remaining people towards the small courtyard.

"You are as stupid as your Speaker. You are playing with fire. It is not as simple as you think." Norton struggled violently and roared.

"Just a young boy who only listens to the prince. Maybe he has some strength, but when I catch his poor adoptive father and lowly sister, what will happen even if he is stronger than Romance? You still have to worry about yourself. , when I finish taking care of the things in front of me, you will be the one who suffers."

With a contemptuous expression on his face, Leonard walked up the steps step by step, one step, two steps, three steps before he bumped into something.

He suddenly took two steps back to make room, stared at the empty top of the steps suspiciously for a long time, and then hesitantly stretched out his right hand forward, as if he wanted to confirm whether he had just hallucinated.

But his hand was caught halfway by an iron-like palm.

In Leonard's stunned gaze, a figure slowly appeared.

He was tall and thin, but not thin, and there was anger rising in his plain eyes.He is wearing the standard robe of a magister, but this robe is different from the ordinary robe of a magister. The cuffs are specially embroidered with the emblems representing the three seats. On his chest, there is also the flaming eagle badge symbolizing the Sunstrider royal family, with three stars. The enchanted emerald green beads are spinning endlessly above the flame eagle's head.

A group of armed men from the Suiyun family who were disguised as guards reacted very quickly and attacked him one after another.

"You shouldn't threaten me like this."

Angmar's hand that grabbed Leonard's arm suddenly squeezed, and a scorching fire erupted as Leonard screamed.The entire corridor was instantly ignited with flames, heat waves surged, and the air twisted.

When the fire light dissipated, the armed members of the Suiyun family were already lying on the ground, not knowing whether they were alive or dead.If you count them carefully, you will find that there were only 21 of them out of the [-] when they arrived. The one with the highest status and the heaviest weight is missing.

"Three seats in Angmar." After the forbidden magic rope was burned and broken, Norton Lankong suppressed the fear in his heart and said: "I have very important information to report to Candiri, the only one who escaped from the Prince of Dalaran. Lord Si, was imprisoned by the Suiyun family. He must know the truth about the prince’s disappearance.”

Angmar shook off the fine dust on his hands and glanced at Norton lightly.

After the latter learned of his return, he immediately changed his stance and moved closer to Magister Carlyle, making no secret of his "close" relationship with Carlyle in front of Leonard.Just now, he stood in front of the door with great righteousness and roared with great acting skills. He just wanted to use the mouths of Leonard and Carlyle, who were in different camps, to express their own position, or to express the position of the Lan Kong family.Expecting this matter to reach Angmar's ears, in fact, all this was seen by the invisible Angmar.

In Quel'Thalas, on the island of Quel'Danas, in the face of absolute power, smart people will make the right choice.

Having said that, if Norton is sure that he died in Dalaran, the Blue Sky family may have done worse things than the Suiyun family and Leonard.

Angmar knew this.

All he could say was that Norton was a smart man who knew how to adapt to the changing circumstances.There are many such smart people in Quel'Thalas, but not many are as smart as Norton.

"The only thing I'm curious about is whether this is the Lankong family's side or your own decision."

There is no need to talk nonsense with smart people. Norton immediately understood Angmar's meaning and hurriedly explained: "The Blue Sky family deeply regrets its past mistakes. We are willing to draw a clear line with the conservative nobles and help Quel'Sarah." The Kingdom of Sri Lanka has returned to the right track, dedicatedly completed the search and rescue work of His Royal Highness, and is willing to accept all punishment."

"Including being deprived of titles and land, exile, or even the death penalty," Angmar asked again.

Norton gritted his teeth and nodded fiercely.

"How to deal with the betrayal of the Lan Kong family needs to be decided by His Highness himself. Before His Highness returns, I will not make any deviant move. You have many opportunities to make meritorious deeds, or simply take this opportunity to flee this land far away." Ma took a deep look at Norton and gave him enough hints.

Norton suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, as if he had been granted amnesty, and repeated: "The Lan Kong family is willing to accept all punishments and devotes itself to wiping out the remaining forces of the conservative faction."

"The choice of the wise."

Angmar praised him, unlocked the magic lock, and opened the door.

In the small courtyard, Leah was opening her hands to a pot of plants with a serious expression. The palms of her hands were full of green. The plant was growing slowly at a speed visible to the naked eye.Istaria on the side was dancing excitedly, mumbling something in Darnassian that Angmar could understand, but it was slightly different from Thalassian in subtle ways, and sounded somewhat awkward.

Anweina, who was sitting not far away, turned to face him first, with a faint smile on her lips.She moved her fingers and removed the invisible barrier that shrouded the small courtyard, and mouthed to him: "Close the door quickly, don't let them see the body outside."

Angmar nodded and gently closed the courtyard door.

When Leah heard the noise, she turned around and saw Angmar who was smiling at her. She couldn't help but froze on the spot, and the little flower that lost its energy guidance quickly drooped.

"Hey, what's going on? All the flowers are withered." Istaria held the withered flowers in her hands, feeling very sad.

A few seconds later, Leah ran over quickly, stood on tiptoes and pulled Angmar into her arms, choking.

"If Anweina hadn't been telling us that you were fine, my father and I would have gone crazy. You don't know how difficult those first few days were, but you are back."

Angmar simply didn't know what to say. Looking over Leah's back, he saw three people sitting opposite each other and talking at the other end of the courtyard.

One of them was his adoptive father Anselon, and he didn't recognize the other two, but felt vaguely familiar.

A blue-haired human.

A green-haired night elf.
