Stormwind Wizard God-Chapter 386: Beware of Gul’dan

Alonsus Faol was a person of transcendent status in the entire alliance. As the common state religion of the seven countries in the alliance, he was definitely a great figure who could stand on equal footing with any king.

Just when the Alliance saw the dawn of victory and was about to launch a counterattack, the news that Archbishop Alonsus was critically ill broke out at this critical juncture, directly casting a shadow on the victory that the Alliance had just won.

Especially for Anduin, it was a big blow both publicly and privately.

In public, because Alonsus promised that after Stormwind regained its territory, he would mobilize believers to raise funds for the reconstruction of Stormwind. Once the most prestigious Alonsus died of illness, the revival of Stormwind would likely be delayed for a long time.

Personally, Anduin and Alonsus have been friends for more than twenty years. He was naturally worried when his old friend fell critically ill.

When Duke arrived, several kings had come to visit.

The only ones accompanying Alonsus at this moment were two high-ranking priests of the Church of the Holy Light, as well as Anduin and Uther.

When Duke arrived with Gavinrad, he immediately noticed that the atmosphere was abnormal.

"What's going on? An illness or something?"

Duke didn't believe it was a disease.

Because priests can cure diseases and eliminate diseases, the most powerful doctors in this era are priests. What's more, Archbishop Alonsus Fao, who is at the top of all priests?

The second is the hospital bed.

This was a very special hospital bed. Rather than calling it a hospital bed, it would be more appropriate to call it a low water tank. Because Alonsus slept on it, most of his body was immersed in the golden holy water, and only his head was propped up by a pillow and exposed above the water.

Next to Alonsus, there was a priest who continued to cast spells to dispel the foul smell emanating from the archbishop's mouth and nose.

Anduin leaned over and whispered to Duke, "It seems that when Alonsus was studying the body of a tribal chief, he came into contact with the demon blood in the chief's body, and then may have triggered a curse that was already in his body. Now he has fallen into a terrible and continuous weakness." ƒrēewebnoѵёl.cσm

Seeing Duke coming in, Alonsus opened his half-closed eyes and said, "All of you go out, only Uther and Duke are left here."

Anduin hesitated to speak, and finally went out with the two high-level priests.

Only Uther was left, using a low-level spell to dispel disease to purify the air in the room.

Duke was a little hesitant. In history, Faol didn't die so quickly.

After winning the war against the Horde, Faol raised a large amount of funds to build the Cathedral of Light in the rebuilt New Stormwind City. As a result, he became the archbishop respected by both Lordaeron and Stormwind.

In recognition of his dedication to the Church of the Holy Light and his contribution to the reconstruction of Stormwind, a statue of Alonsus Faol was erected in front of the Cathedral of Light. The inscription on it praises Faol's great achievements for the Alliance during the Second War - raising funds to help rebuild Stormwind City and Northshire Abbey.

Faol died before the Third Dark Gate War, just before the Scourge invaded Lordaeron, and the cause of his death is unknown.

I've never heard that Faol would be critically ill.

He thought of a very scary possibility. Finally he asked, "Sir Faol, was it at the Storm Altar that day..."

Yes, if there is any variable about Alonsus, it is that when Duke stole the fruits of Gul'dan's labor that day, he asked the archbishop to help purify the Storm Altar that was corrupted by demonic power.

Alonsus smiled and said, "My dear disciple, please swear in the name of the Holy Light that you will not tell anyone what you saw and heard today."

A muscle twitched on Uther's resolute and pious face: "I swear in the name of Holy Light."

Alonsus then turned to Duke and said, "I will answer your question. Yes and no."

Yes? No?

Duke was a little confused.

"I have spent most of my life spreading the Holy Light, placing my hope in the Holy Light to drive away all darkness and evil. But I discovered a fact, that is - whether the Holy Light drives away evil, or darkness devours the Light, it is a relative process."

"relatively?"

"That's right. The more pious and pure the heart is, the more holy light it will produce. But only the side with a greater total amount and higher quality will be the winner of this battle. I did inhale an excessive amount of demonic power that day. I thought I could purify it by my own strength, but obviously I failed. But this is not important."

"Not important!? Don't be ridiculous, Your Excellency the Archbishop, I..."

Alonsus stretched out his hand from the holy water and waved it, stopping Duke from speaking any further: "I won't die so easily. Just send me back to the Cathedral of Holy Light in Stratholme. With the help of the power of the holy water, I can still survive. At most, I will lose some vitality. This is not the time for me to sleep forever! The most important thing is actually you - Duke!"

"Me!?" Duke was stunned.

"Yes! You!" Alonsus pointed his finger at Duke's chest. "During this period of time, you have undoubtedly proved to everyone that you are the most dazzling new star in the alliance. Your wisdom and foresight make me almost suspect that you are a prophet sent by the Creation Titan."

"Well."

Well, you're half right.

"But I am most worried about you. Compared with your powerful magic and wise mind, your will is too weak. If an evil being wants to deal with you, you are the type of person who will be most easily corrupted."

Duke's face felt as if it was on fire after he was told the truth.

That's right, before he traveled through time, he was just an ordinary college student. He had never experienced the ups and downs of life, nor did he have enough tempering, nor enough life experience. This was his biggest shortcoming, and it was also a weakness that he could not solve for the time being.

Therefore, Duke is always hit by the Fear Spell.

If it weren't for the system AI, he would have died long ago.

"I'll pay attention."

"No, it's not enough to just pay attention. You need a firm belief, otherwise if you become the next Xavius, it will be a nightmare for the Alliance."

Xavius, once the head of the Highborne and the core leader of the Kaldorei civilization of ancient Kalimdor, was second only to Queen Azshara. Later, his mind was corrupted by the Ancient God N'Zoth, which directly led to the first invasion of the Burning Legion in the world of Azeroth.

Alonsus' words were very strong.

What else could Duke say? He could only accept it and receive a handwritten copy of the Holy Light Doctrine from the Archbishop.

Before leaving, Alonsus grabbed Duke's hand and said solemnly, "Be careful of Gul'dan."
