Azeroth’s Death Track

Chapter 259 22. The balance of life and death --- add more for the silver lord crow 1131 [230]

Long ago, when Tyrion became a death knight, he was studying the mysteries of death and death.

Of course, for a ranger who was alive, it would be very difficult to study such obscure issues. He lacked the research thinking of mages, so the progress was slow. Until the blood mages Seven and Autumn joined the dark blade, the research speed Only improved a lot.

In Draenor, with the help of the knowledge gained from the orcs and the occasional communication with the Prophet Velen, the Dark Blade Knights made rapid progress in the research topic of life and death, but still did not come to a correct conclusion.

And the final conclusion was born after Khadgar actually joined.

An archmage, an archmage who has experienced the changes in the world, after going from life to death, he also became interested in this obscure question, and at this time, all the work done by the Dark Blade Knights before, They have all helped Khadgar a lot, all their research knights have tended to the essence, and there is only one outstanding wisdom to fully summarize it.

Life and death are in balance, this is Khadgar's conclusion, it sounds simple, but the inner meaning of this sentence is not simple.

A long time ago, Tyrion told Glokush that the basis for the existence of a real death knight is the death energy in the soul and body, which is a mysterious force that is naturally born in the body after death. , If there is no intervention, the spread of death energy will cause the body to decay, and once the soul is resurrected, the death energy in the body can be used.

And most importantly, this kind of energy does not need to be absorbed in a special way, as long as you die, as long as you become a complete death knight, death energy will continuously grow in your body.

This is a taboo power that only the dead can master. It is completely two extremes with life, so it is unparalleled corrosive and destructive to living bodies.

But death energy also has its own limitations, it is not omnipotent.

Powerful death knights, like Tyrion, Glokush, and Saurfang, have already reached the limit of death energy in their bodies. Comparing the body to a container means that a powerful death knight Before there is any hope of further breakthrough, when every part of his body is filled with death energy, the death energy will no longer actively breed!

Because the container is already fully loaded, there is no other place to store more energy, which leads to the fact that the strength of the death knights will eventually be solidified due to different personal physiques.

Therefore, Khadgar believes that there are only two ways to break the shackles of this power. First, strengthen the control of the soul, and use will to continuously compress the concentration of death energy in the body. Every ounce of death energy in his body becomes more pure.

But the soul... Even for an existence like Prophet Velen, the soul is mysterious and sacred, and it is also taboo. Khadgar also cannot make rapid progress in the study of the soul.

Therefore, the Dark Blade Knights finally adopted the second method... expand the container!

Strengthening the physique of the dead body of the death knight can allow them to carry more death energy, and more death energy will in turn nourish the dead body, allowing the death knight to achieve a delicate balance until they are strengthened The container has once again reached its limit.

This is the final answer to the question, but the problem is that it is not as easy as imagined to strengthen the physique of the dead, and instead of a little research, Tyrion chose a more brutal way, in the battlefield of Quel'Thalas In life, he had drawn the blood of young dragons, which caused him terrible pain, but only made his dead body tougher as a result.

What the Dark Blade Knights are doing now is nothing more than copying Tyrion's previous experience, but the way they choose is more brutal and more...unbelievable.

They chose to fortify the body with dragon blood essence from the most powerful creature in Azeroth, the Red Dragon Queen, Alexstrasza the Life-Binder... Frankly, it's crazy!

———————————————————

The limit that the death lord can bear is just a cup of dragon blood essence.

Tyrion and Alleria were walking in the quiet alleys of Grim Batol, the two of them were talking in low voices. The undead couple also drank the king's blood, but due to Salain's respect for the blood Born with the ability to control, their experience is not as painful as other death lords.

The vitality contained in Alexstrasza's blood is so powerful that even Saurfang's body was burned by this vitality, and Luminas's internal organs were even scorched. It seems that they need a while of rest, perhaps for a long time.

Tyrion said softly:

I still underestimated the power of the Dragon King's blood... It seems that high-ranking knights cannot be allowed to drink the Dragon King's blood directly. It will burn them to death. It must be diluted, but the pain that should be suffered will not be less.

But they also got something really precious.

Aurelia took her husband's hand and said:

The most precious thing for the dead is the future... I have seen their bodies being slowly transformed. The dead body is full of vitality, and the activity of the body has almost doubled. This is just the beginning. It's hard to say what the future holds, but I mean, after this transformation is over, what's holding them back is going to be completely broken.

It's a good thing, and you don't need to worry about it.

But it's painful, Alleria. The vitality of the dead is not much better than poison. They have to endure unimaginable pain all the time in exchange for an erratic future.

A gloomy light flashed in Tyrion's ice-blue eyes:

This is too unfair to the undead. Even if it's just a future, we need to fight so desperately. Sometimes I really envy those living people...

Lord Darkblade stood in the darkness, looking at Vereesa Windrunner who was waiting on the chair in front of him, he said:

The benefits they get from drinking the blood of the Dragon King are more than ten times that of us... Together they can change the world. Unfortunately, they have never done that. They are wasting their talents and lives. To spend a moment thinking about sticking a knife in your fellow man's back and trying to rule the world with machinations is disgusting.

But that's Vereesa, that's not a living person in your eyes, my husband, you should be more tolerant to your relatives.

Alleria retorted dissatisfiedly, and Tyrion shrugged:

Just because she's my kin...was kin, that's why I've done so much around the edges...May this kid be worthy of everything we've done for her, seriously, I hope that the person sitting here is Cirvanas, she can handle everything calmly, she is much better than the childish Vereesa.

He shook his head and pushed Alleria behind his back:

Go ahead, she probably won't want to see me, send our sister away, and then, Alleria, we should go too.

After finishing speaking, Tyrion turned around and walked back into the darkness. Alleria originally wanted to take this opportunity to let Tyrion and Vereesa settle their differences, but now it seems that not only Vereesa refused to do so, Even Tyrion was fighting against this feeling of the past.

Sister, you are here.

Vereesa felt the footsteps behind her, which was deliberately made by Alleria. As a watcher who passed the shadow test, as long as Alleria was willing, she would not make any noise when she walked on any ground. Even a little noise.

This is your share.

Alleria handed the bottle to Vereesa, and Windrunner took it in her hand. Even through the thick wall of the bottle, she could feel the scorching heat of the condensed Dragon King's blood, even a scalding feeling.

I...I don't want to drink...

Vereesa whispered, That queen, she is peaceful, she doesn't deserve to suffer...

Shut up! Vereesa!

A sternness flashed in Alleria's eyes. She looked at her ignorant sister and said in a low voice:

It is gentle to you because it is imprisoned, it longs to be free, you actually use peaceful to describe a giant dragon, it is too childish, its inner is not as gentle as you think, you must drink it , at the right time, drink one-tenth of it each time, it may take a year, but you must finish drinking it! Don't let anyone find out, including Cirvanas!

Sister, this...

Vereesa raised her head and looked at Alleria, a trace of confusion flashed in her eyes, she whispered:

Perhaps this dragon's blood is more suitable for Second Sister...

Sylvanas doesn't need this, she is capable enough to protect herself, but...do you think I didn't leave one for her?

Alleria shook her head, and put a special storage ring in Vereesa's hand. She lowered her voice, and her tone became gentler:

Vereesa, I can't go to Quel'Thalas to see Shiva recently. I hope you can understand my difficulties, but my feelings for you... have never changed. During my absence, I hope , you can take care of Shiva and Lilas instead of me, but to do this, you need strength, protection... protection is never a tender word.

Touching her sister's smooth hair, she said softly:

But anything related to the blood of the dragon king will be very dangerous. After we leave, the violent red dragon will pursue any clues, so you can't disclose it to anyone. Those who need help in Shiva and Lilas At that time, Vereesa, there is a part of this ring that belongs to them. When it is really a matter of life and death, I believe that you know what to do... And remember, Quel'Thalas is not heaven, there are also own darkness.

Promise me, protect our secrets, protect our loved ones!

Vereesa clenched the bottle in her hand. She raised her head and looked at her sister. The mission Alleria gave her was too heavy. Just thinking about it would make her scalp tingle. She instinctively felt fear. But Alleria stared at her, and the eldest daughter of the Windrunner said in a deep voice:

promise me!

I...I promise you!

Vereesa gritted her teeth and nodded. Aurelia showed a satisfied smile on her face. She opened her arms and hugged her sister into her arms. Vereesa also hugged her sister tightly. The next moment, Alleria's fingers rested on the back of Vereesa's neck.

Good-bye, then, sister.

Snapped

Vereesa's body stiffened for a moment, and then she collapsed silently into Alleria's arms. Looking at her unconscious sister, the eldest daughter of Windrunner sighed, twisted the bottle from Vereesa's hand, He poured one-tenth of the dragon's blood into her mouth.

She helped her wipe the blood from the corner of her mouth, and she looked at her sister worriedly:

When will you learn to be on guard...even for the closest people.

And you, Ronin!

Alleria stood up and looked back at the human mage who came out of the darkness. He was no longer the scruffy man he was before. He changed into a clean robe, trimmed his messy hair and beard, and looked like a very handsome young man. .

The blood mistress walked up to Luo Ning, she looked into the dim eyes of the human mage, and she handed him a bottle of dragon blood:

This is your share, you can treat it as...employee benefits, listen, Ronin, I don't know you, and I don't want to know you, but my husband Tyrion looks at you differently, You don't need to refute me saying that he is a lunatic, you have to understand one thing, not every prisoner can survive in the hands of the Dark Blade Knight!

Luo Ning gritted his teeth and squeezed the bottle in his hand, but in the end he didn't refute.

Alleria looked at the human mage with a look of scrutiny and harshness. After a while, she said softly:

I don't know why my husband trusts you so much, but if it is his decision, I will accept it. The dragon's blood given to you has been compressed three times, and its reserves are enough to allow you to live for 3000 years without disease or disaster. ..do you know what that means?

Luo Ning shook his head. The next moment, Alleria grabbed his collar and looked at him fiercely. This change of emotion made Luo Ning's eyes widen. The next moment, Alleria said in a deep voice :

Tyrion and I hand over our dearest sister to you! You have to swear to protect her forever! Do you hear me clearly? You can be her husband or her knight, and she also has a special trust in you, she Probably not against you, which is why I agree with this terrible idea, but if you let me know, you dare to hurt her...”

I will not.

This sudden surprise made Ronin's eyes widen for a moment, but soon, he interrupted Aurelia's words, and he said seriously:

I hate you and Tyrion, I hate all undead!

Ronin gritted his teeth:

But Vereesa is innocent, there is no love between me and her, but as I promised Tyrion, I will shoulder the responsibility of a friend, I will take good care of her, protect her, and do my best, even if I can't go back to Dalaran, even if I have to give up everything... In short, I will not hurt my friend, and I am not as dirty as you think! I will not force her to do anything!

very good.

Alleria let go of Rhonin's collar, folded her arms, and looked at the human mage:

But you may have misunderstood something. No one will let you go back to Dalaran. You can do whatever you want, and we don't need you as our spy. Your strength is too weak.

But that seal, on the back of my hand...

Come on, that's the brand that the Lord Darkblade personally branded, just to protect you from being swallowed by the undead in the future. In addition, do you really think that Tyrion is so weak that the brand he personally imposed will be casually Has an archmage found out?

Don't underestimate us, Rhonin... Take Vereesa and leave, never come to us again! Don't let her do that...
