Chapter 73 Kael'thas

Kael'thas is a tall high elf wearing a fiery red robe with gold edges. His long golden hair is very conspicuous, and there are three red fireballs floating behind him.

This is a very handsome high elf, who is the most handsome and elegant one even among his tribe.

It reminded Garin of a movie in his previous life. Kael'thas was as stunning as Thranduil who climbed onto a deer in "The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies".

"It is detected that the host has come into contact with elven blood. The blood elf mage template begins to be generated."

Garin was stunned for a moment. The number of heroes at the Altar of Kings, which he had been worried about for a long time, finally changed!

Kael'thas noticed that the young man in front of him was distracted and felt that the Prince of Stromgarde in front of him was a little rude, but his good manners made him keep smiling.

"Prince Garin is looking for me about something important?" Although getting straight to the point was somewhat against aristocratic etiquette, if no one said anything else, the guest in front of him would already be daydreaming.

"Cough! Cough!"

Gandalf also noticed the change in the prince. He guessed that something important had diverted the prince's attention, but since he was currently visiting a prince of a country, he still had to remind him.

Gandalf's cough was a priority for Garin, and he immediately came back to his senses from the sudden reminder sound from the Heart of Origin.

The next step was the aristocratic greeting between the two princes. Many aristocratic etiquettes in human society were learned from the high elves. The high elves had a long history. Three thousand years ago, humans were still a tribal society. The Troll War 2,700 years ago led to the establishment of diplomatic relations and alliances between the two races. The Arathor Empire learned a lot from the high elves' Kingdom of Quel'Thalas, and aristocratic etiquette was one of them.

After everyone took their seats, Garin went straight to the point. He had a good impression of Kael'thas. Although he also had the arrogance of the elves, as a second-generation prince, he had the capital to be proud. He had a good family background and was very powerful. What was rare was that he had a gentle and polite personality and treated people with a warm welcome.

The red fireball behind him looks pretty good, but let him change to a green evil fireball, so that he can be helped in the future.

"One of my caravans and a team of dwarven explorers strayed into an ancient ruin in the southern mountains. Eventually, they brought out a batch of treasures. Recently, I am short of military funds, and my father cannot support me, so I want to sell the treasures to you, Prince Kael'thas."

Garin began to make up lies in all seriousness, the underlying meaning of which was that Prince, you are just the right size, like a fat sheep.

"Oh? What treasure is it?" Kael'thas became interested. The prince of Stromgarde was a royal family member who had seen the world, and the mage beside him was quite powerful. He would not take out some ordinary things, which would be too embarrassing.

Moreover, the Kingdom of Quel'Thalas is the richest country on this eastern continent. They have a lot of treasures. Is there anything that the prince hasn't seen? How can you say it's a treasure if you don't bring out some real stuff?

Garin took out a white scroll from his arms and placed it on the table.

Kael'thas felt the item and found no mana fluctuations, so it was not a magic item. Prince Garin took it out of his arms so casually that it was hard for him to believe that it was a treasure, it was too ordinary.

"This is?"

His good aristocratic upbringing would not let him walk away in anger, but he also believed that a prince would not come all the way to tease him, so his curiosity was aroused and he asked directly.

"This is called a return scroll. It is similar to your wizard's portal and can be used for long-distance teleportation."

"That's it?"

Kael'thas was a little disappointed. The high elves had no shortage of things like long-distance teleportation. They had plenty of mages to open portals. He himself was a mage, so if he wanted to teleport, he just had to cast a spell.

There is no need to shout in the world channel: I need so much G to ask the mage to open the door.

Mage, don't ask for help.

Garin also noticed Kael'thas's impatient expression, and he immediately continued, "Don't be impatient, Your Highness. I haven't finished yet. This return scroll can ignore any magic barrier and seal!"

Boom!

Kael'thas stood up suddenly, and the calm expression on his face finally changed: "This is impossible!"

This time it was Garin's turn to remain calm. He responded calmly, "I'm sure!"

Seeing Kael'thas' face full of disbelief, Garin felt very happy pretending to be cool.

Haha, this wave made me feel proud!

It makes you gentle and elegant, with an aristocratic demeanor, which will scare you to death.

It’s no wonder that Kael’thas was so surprised. Any mage with a little knowledge of space would be surprised.

As we all know, space teleportation requires many conditions to be met, the first of which is energy. The longer the distance and the more people are teleported, the more energy is required.

This condition is not a problem in Azeroth. As a planet that gave birth to the strongest Titan, any excess energy is more than enough for teleportation.

For example, the unfinished Dark Portal is a structure that allows a race to teleport on an interstellar scale, which requires enormous amounts of energy. There are more than a dozen places in Azeroth that meet the conditions for its construction, but not Draenor. To maintain a Dark Portal, the energy of the planet must be drained, causing the orcs to think that their homeland is about to be destroyed, and thus invade other planets.

It’s a bit like how China built the Three Gorges Dam and the Qinghai-Tibet Railway with ease, but a small African country would go bankrupt in a matter of minutes if it built one.

In addition, you need to set up magic beacons in advance, just like a bomber needs to be marked to bomb accurately. If a place is isolated from magic power, or a strong barrier is set up, without the magic beacon positioning, teleportation cannot be carried out.

This is what surprised Kael'thas. A circle of barrier stones was set up on the border of the Kingdom of Quel'Thalas. This was the guarantee for the high elves to stand for thousands of years.

The barrier stone possesses powerful magic power, forming a magic barrier that protects the entire kingdom's territory like a shield. Combined with the energy of the Sunwell, it not only makes their territory spring-like all year round, making it suitable for high elves to live in, but also prohibits air flight and prevents enemies from teleporting into it.

The kingdom spends a large amount of money every year to maintain the barrier, and at the same time, the rangers of the Far Traveler Corps patrol the kingdom's borders at all times to prevent the barrier stones from being destroyed.

The magic barrier that Kael'thas was so proud of should have been an absolute defense, but today, he heard the human prince say that the return scroll in front of him could ignore the barrier and seal?

Garin still had some doubts when looking at Kael'thas, but it was no wonder. This return scroll was really ordinary and there was no mana fluctuation. How could it break the barrier that the other kingdom was proud of?

Words are not enough, he still needs to experience it for himself and shatter the myth of their kingdom's barrier stone with his own hands, so that their border will not be invaded by orcs and trolls in a few years, and Silvermoon City will not be confident that the barrier is invincible and continue to live a life of luxury.

Garin opened the scroll and said to the prince, "Your Highness, this scroll is divided into two parts. I call this small one the beacon axis, which is used for positioning, and this large one is the main scroll that stores energy."

As he said this, Garin handed the small one to Kael'thas.

"Place the beacon shaft in advance at the destination we need to teleport to, and then activate the return scroll to teleport to the location of the beacon."

"I still have six return scrolls here. If you are interested in my set of return scrolls, I can give you an experiment. Dalaran has a sealing barrier, and Silvermoon City should also have one."

"I did not give the scroll to Speaker Antonidas, and I chose to trade with Prince Kael'thas. This is my sincerity! I will go back and wait for news. I will keep the scroll for you."

"and many more!"
