Chapter 396: The Name of Meri Winterwind

Of course, Antonidas knew about it. As the head of a country, he knew all about the spies stationed in Dalaran.

Coincidentally, Dalaran actually installed some intelligence personnel in Quel'Thalas.

However, due to the xenophobic customs of Quel'Thalas, intelligence personnel from Dalaran... and even other countries can only follow the caravan and cannot stay in Silvermoon City for a long time.

This practice of sending spies to each other is an unspoken rule among countries. As long as the face is not completely torn, no one will bring this matter to the table and put it on the line.

Not long ago, Dalaran expelled all the spies inserted in Lordaeron, which annoyed Terenas, and a war almost broke out between the two countries.

As for how much the difference is... Only the two countries involved know best.

Even when relations were at its worst, Dalaran did not expel the spies planted by Quel'Thalas.

In the final analysis, the diplomatic turmoil at the beginning was originally Dalaran's fault.

Antonidas has always wanted to rebuild the relationship with Quel'Thalas, so it is naturally impossible to further offend the high elves with extra complications.

According to the information provided by Valeera, there will be a six-member Backlighting Blade team stationed in Dalaran at any time. Once they find any abnormal situation, they will immediately convey the information to the headquarters of Silvermoon City.

This time, the team obviously encountered an unusual and unexpected situation.

All six people lost contact, and only had time to send a brief message for help, without even attaching any notes.

"about this point…"

Antonios explained with a solemn expression: "Although I can't be 100% sure, I speculate that the disappearance of those 'citizens' of Quel'Thalas should be related to the crisis that Dalaran is facing now."

Sarlayan narrowed his eyes cautiously: "Your Excellency, are you serious? You don't mean to kill someone with a knife?"

"of course not."

Antonidas argued seriously: "As far as I know, those 'citizens' disappeared after entering the sewer. If Earl Deep Shadow doesn't believe it, you can go to the XC area to investigate near the sewer entrance."

There is more than one sewer entrance in Dalaran, and there are all corners of the city.

Rommath, Ronin, and Callai used the official entrance, which was on the side of Violet Castle. There were Kirin Tor guards guarding the entrance at all times, and the order was maintained relatively orderly.

It is obviously impossible for the thieves of Backlighting Blade to enter through the official channel. Even if Dalaran is well aware of their existence, the matter of investigating intelligence cannot be put on the surface, otherwise Dalaran will not give Dalaran face at all.

Now that the situation in Dalaran is urgent, it is impossible for Antonidas to offend the high elves at this juncture.

Sharlayan chose to trust Antonidas, and before he turned to leave Violet Castle and started to act, he raised his mouth seemingly unintentionally.

"By the way, why didn't I see Archmage Kel'Thuzad? I also want to ask him some questions about spells."

Antonidas did not expect that Sharlayan would suddenly mention Kel'Thuzad, and he was stunned for a moment before he said in doubt: "Kel'Thuzad has been doing closed-door research in his mage tower. body."

A strange look flashed across the Kirin Tor speaker's eyes: "Earl Deep Shadow, may I ask, what kind of spells do you plan to ask Kel'Thuzad for advice?"

Sharlayan said indifferently: "There is nothing bad to say, as you can see..."

Sharlayan's left and right hands flashed different magic lights at the same time, the left hand was green, and the right hand was gray.

"By chance and coincidence, I obtained the inheritance of a special profession called Thorn Whisperer."

"This kind of combat function uses the power of death and life at the same time, and can reconcile these two forces that interact with each other."

"I still have some experience with the power of nature, but the power of death... is too rare."

"I heard that Archmage Kel'Thuzad once studied the notes of the Lich Merly Dongfeng. I think he should be able to give me some inspiration on how to effectively use the power of death."

Meri Winterwind, the first lich in Azeroth's history, and one of the founders of the Tirisfal Council.

After the catastrophe of the Tirisfal Council, Merry Winterwind was the last remaining member, the only lucky one who was not found and killed by Medivh (Sargeras).

Meri Winterwind was first active during the Troll War, and was the first batch of human mage apprentices to receive enlightenment from the high elves.

In the tragic troll war, Merry was unfortunately killed, but soon he was resurrected as a lich due to the emergency of the war, rejoined the battle, and participated in the establishment of Dalaran and the Tirisfal Council after the war.

Meri Dongfeng is the patriarch who witnessed the division of human civilization from division to unity and then to division. The notes he left are one of the precious documents kept in Dalaran.

Sharlayan was not sure whether there was any information related to liches and the power of death in Meri Winterwind's magic notes, and he planned to use this to defraud Antonidas.

Sure enough, Antonidas' face changed when he heard the term "power of death", and his eyes also showed deep thought.

"If Earl Deep Shadow still has time after finishing his work, you can go to the Mage Tower in Kel'Thuzad to communicate with him in person."

Sharlayan smiled noncommittally: "I hope I can take the time as you said, then we will take our leave first."

"I wish you all the best for your trip."

After watching the three of Sarlayan leave, Antonidas withdrew the smile on his face, frowned and looked at one of the tall towers in the city.

"The power of death..."

Like fel energy, the power of death is also a taboo force that is not allowed to be studied in Dalaran.

All kinds of taboos in Dalaran are on the surface, and Antonidas doesn't believe that Sharlayan doesn't know about it.

'Deliberately provoking? Or is it true? '

Although the information provided by Antonidas should be true, just in case, the three of Sarlayan still went to the XC area.

From the mouths of nearby residents, Valeera, who suffers from social overwhelm, easily asked for the information she wanted.

"It can be basically confirmed that the information is correct. The six people disappeared on the same night."

"Um…"

Sharlayan stood in front of the sewer entrance, looking thoughtfully at the dark passage.

"Lylas, what do you think?"

"what?"

Lailas frowning frowningly froze for a moment, then scratched his head and said: "It should be something unexpected happened in the sewer, but..."

Lailas asked in confusion: "I don't know much about Backlight Blade, but I can guess it with my ass. The spies who can be dispatched are undoubtedly elites."

"What kind of accident can the six-member team only have time to send out an emergency signal?"

Each dispatched Backlight Blade team has only one emergency signal transmitter, which is usually kept in the hands of the captain with the strongest strength and the best overall situation.

This kind of one-time transmitter is relatively expensive, and it has built-in space spells. Once activated, it will automatically send the request for help back to the Backlight Blade headquarters.

Under normal circumstances, when sending a call for help, the captain will simply describe the situation they encountered in the remarks, so that the rescuers can configure the team in a targeted manner.

Based on this, it can be speculated that this Backlight Blade team may have encountered a powerful enemy that they could hardly resist.

It was with this in mind that Kael'thas sent the legendary duo team of Sharlayan + Valeera. He believed that these two old teammates with rich adventure experience could find out the truth.

Lyras? It's just a self-indulgent addition.

Although Kael'thas has no hope for the young Lailas for the time being~lightnovelpub.net~ but since he was brought out, Sharlayan didn't intend to let him play soy sauce, just took the opportunity to train this little Partner, increase his knowledge.

Lyras also participated in the Second Orc War. Although his experience in dealing with emergencies was far less mature than that of Sharlayan and Valeera, he was not a hothouse young master who had never seen anything before.

Sharlayan: "What do you think the enemy might be? There's no harm in guessing."

"Uh…"

Lyras lowered his head and pondered for a moment: "An orc warlock who sneaked into the underground of Dalaran? An archmage who studied forbidden spells in private?"

Valeera couldn't help shaking her head and laughing: "Sure enough, your world view is still too narrow."

"Orcs? The group of bereaved dogs who have already fallen ill are not a threat at all. As for the archmage... what kind of mage do you think can completely suppress Delandon, who is also an archmage, so that he can't even escape?"

Sharlayan's eyes flashed brightly: "Although Rhonin speculates that this matter has nothing to do with Lordaeron, but...is it really not at all?"
