Light's Dawn of Azeroth

Chapter 98: 53. Towards the Dawn [23] Please Call Me Miracle Naaru

Dick's heart was filled with sadness.

This is because after completing the final "synchronization" with K'ure by sacrificing and healing on behalf of the orc ancestors, he has realized that the situation of this guardian Naaru is irreparable.

It had been swept into its original tragic end by the icy fate. Even when the storm of fate caused by the butterfly Diakum flapping its wings with all its might 20,000 years ago had reached this moment, Kure still failed to become the "savior."

Perhaps it was because the changes in fate caused by Dick had not yet reached such a profound level. In short, after Diakum chose the "Hand of Fate" morality, this was the second time he felt sadness and powerlessness from the bottom of his heart.

He couldn't help but wonder if he had woken up earlier, if he had tried harder.
At this moment, wisps of golden light slid down amid Iriel's exclamation. When Dick raised his head, he saw the light shining on his forehead, like a warm hand touching and caressing him at this moment, like the silent encouragement and comfort of a friend at this moment.

K'ure seemed to sense what Dick was thinking, and it was telling him in this way that it wasn't his fault.

It was just a counterattack of fate.

Diakum shoulders a heavier mission, one that even concerns the entire starry sea of the material universe. When the Original Light chose him to become the Iron Hand that shakes fate, it was destined that Dick would have to fight against the invisible and cold giant.

In such a heavy game concerning the future of the universe, K'ure is willing to turn himself into firewood.

Even for a good-natured Naaru like him, this is the most satisfying and satisfying ending he has chosen for himself.

The Naaru are born mythical creatures, born from the purest light. Their starting point surpasses 99% of the life of the stars. Because of this, they understand better than mortals the difficulty of fighting against fate.

Diakite has done a great job.

Even K'ure, who was about to be the "sacrifice", could not ask him to be more perfect. That was obviously beyond the pressure limit that the current sentinel could bear.

"boom"

At this moment, a sound like breaking glass rang out in the light released by Dick. He lowered his head and saw that K'ure's scarred crystal body was shattering.

Or it's called weathering.

That was the aftermath of Dick's holy light colliding with the deep void shadows when he tried to purify it.

The Sentinel's guess was correct. K'ure could no longer withstand such an infusion of energy, but it did not refuse Dick's holy light from continuing to pour into its body. Even though it knew that this would shatter it into pieces, K'ure had already made its choice!

It hopes to return to the original light that shaped them in the form of light, rather than continue to survive as a "void entropy demon".

It knew that if it chose that selfish path, it would bring another threat to the world of Draenor besides the fel.

Void!

Every naaru captured by the void will become a filthy rift opened by the Sunless Sea in the real world, and the uncontrolled void power will unscrupulously wash over the fragile Draenor with it as the center.

The Shadowmoon Clan and Darkstar Kara have proven this.

When it was captured by the Void Shadow, Kara also asked Velen and Hatton to immediately exile it to the stars. It knew very well what would happen once it fell into the material world.

Draenor is not one of those lucky worlds. It does not have enough power and potential to cope with the dual erosion of fel energy and the void at the same time.

In fact, even though K'ure was stuck in the "Void Transformation" at this time, he had already produced a series of complex impacts on the ecology of Draenor, which was also one of the "troubles" that Dick had to deal with next in the Nagrand grasslands.

The Sentinel could even hear K'ure's urging in this light.

Its body continued to shatter in the collision of light and darkness, like a collapsing crystal tower, but every collapse would make K'ure sing a song of relief.

It has been trapped in this state of "neither life nor death" for more than two hundred years, and it should not continue to endure such torture.

So after the next breath, Diakum's eyes became firm.

"Yrel, dry your tears of weakness and bid farewell to the great one with courage and perseverance! Now, retreat!"

He said something.

Iriel, who had been assisting the saint and His Majesty K'ure in a spiritual connection, heard the entire conversation between the two. The recruit heard the saint's decision from his tone.

So Irel wiped his tears and quickly stepped out of the dazzling light.

Just a few minutes of staying there caused the outside of her armor to melt. It can be seen that even in the dawn light, the light and heat emitted by the Sentinel was already terrifying.

The moment she left the light, the dawn light surrounding Dick completely transformed into the scorching midday sun in an instant. He mobilized his holy light with the brightest and most blazing posture of a pioneer of the scorching sun, letting the boiling light wrap around and pour into K'ure's body that was already hopelessly dark.

It was like a burning and torture, allowing K'ure to temporarily free himself from the constraints and pressure of darkness and sing the ethereal naaru hymn for the last time.

But the Void would never be willing to lose another Naaru who was about to be transformed into an entropy demon.

Their counterattack was fierce and crazy. The dark shadows visible to the naked eye gathered together and transformed into hideous shadow creatures in the scorching midday light. They pounced on Diakum who was casting the purification spell with their fangs and claws in the scorching light.

Their dark bodies would be quickly burned in the light, like a bunch of skeleton monsters emitting black smoke.

They cannot get close to the Sentinel because the Sentinel's purification is never an ordinary burning light. Whenever necessary, Dick is happy to personally give these filthy things a just execution.

"I'll do it! Saint, please continue to purify His Majesty K'ure!"

Yrel, standing at the edge of the light, raised her jeweled hammer and shouted:
"Please don't let the Guardian Naaru suffer the humiliation of darkness anymore. It deserves a dignified end. Let me be its defender! As I said just now, I am not representing myself at this moment.

Your Majesty, please look at me, please bear witness to me.

The children you protected back then have already had children, and although we young people have strayed, we have now returned to the right path! We will never let you down, please look at us in the light!
Holy Light will prevail!"

With an impassioned roar, Yrel spread his wings and rushed out with unparalleled bravery.

The opening move, Judgement of Ashes, was a critical hit. Under the shock of the explosion of holy light, the dark object emitting black smoke instantly turned into light spots and shattered. The power scared even Irel himself.

When did she become so fierce?
Although it was not as visually stunning as the Sentinel's Ash Strike that easily burned the enemy, the burst of holy light at this moment was far beyond what a Hand of Argus recruit should be able to achieve.

"Because you're enhanced, kid."

Diak'um's voice echoed through Yrel's mind through the spiritual connection. The saint said in a low voice:

"K'ure saw your bravery and understood your dedication to light and justice, so it bestowed its power upon you and chose you as its moral successor.

But what you inherited is not just power, but also the duties and oaths from His Majesty K'ure!

In the name of the Vigilante, and before His Majesty K'ure's final gaze, I declare that from this day forward, you shall be known as 'Yrel, Hand of K'ure'.

This is the greatest honor, and we must not let this blessing of light go to waste."

"But can I really?"

Yrel was paralyzed.

She could feel a bright holy light power bestowed by His Majesty K'ure pulsating on her body and mind, replacing her previous holy light. The light was light and weightless, but it made the child feel heavy.

She said with some fear:
"I'm just a country girl from the village of Ambori. I haven't even completed the 'Demon Warrior' trial required of elite garrison officers. Can I really inherit His Majesty K'ure's duties?"

"If you keep doubting yourself like this, maybe you won't be able to do it in ten or a hundred years."

In the battle between Holy Light and Darkness, with the sound of K'ure's crystal body shattering in the background, Dick said:

"But if you choose to shoulder this burden now, then through repeated trials and tribulations, you will surely become the person you desire to be. Not every new recruit can be trained by me personally, Yrel.

There is nothing wrong with your talent. It is much better than I was back then. This means that your future achievements are destined to surpass mine.

Go forward bravely and don't let Keure down.

The most important thing is not to let yourself down when you have the opportunity to make a major decision. This is a motto given to you by a senior who has been fighting against fate. "

"boom"

Yrel felt a burst of light as hot as the sun behind her, and the impact pushed her out of the shattered navigation station.

As the recruit fumbled to his feet, she turned around and saw that Saint Diakum had transformed into a "fierce sun of the present world," almost enveloping the entire navigation station in milky white holy flames.

The temperature here is completely unacceptable for ordinary people to stay here, and the spirits of the ancestors were warned in advance. At this time, the Garadar orcs and Draenei have completely withdrawn from the area to avoid disturbing K'ure's final purification.

This made them miss the magnificent scene of witnessing the Sentinel's power unleashing, and also put Irel in the dilemma of "fighting alone" at this time.

"Hey, look at you now, you're completely radiant! Saint, how dare you say I'll surpass you in the future? What a terrifying prophecy! Even looking up at the terrifying goal you've set for me now would give me a cramp in the neck.

It’s just like coaxing a child.”

Yrel sighed.

She turned around, leaned her warhammer in front of her, and looked at the dark dogs who gathered again and tried to break through the white holy fire.

The recruit glared at them.

She ignited the blessing from His Majesty K'ure within her body, making the golden wings behind her even more brilliant and massive.

Although she was the only one here, she was not afraid at all. At this moment, she said in a deep voice:

"I am the Hand of Yrel K'ure! This is the holy land I protect, and you shall not pass through! Come, minions of the Void, and challenge me!"

Her roar echoed throughout the scorching land.

She knew that she had to buy enough time for the Saint to purify His Majesty K'ure, but what Irel didn't know was that the purification had actually ended in the previous burst of the Holy Flame of the Radiant Sun.

K'ure's dark shadow completely dissipated as his body melted.

Dick was now standing in the melted ruins of the broken navigation station. The burning crystal fragments slid down around him like a rain of light. He looked at the thing floating in front of him with a look of surprise.

A crystal.

It looked very much like the sacred crystals that fell when Kara was purified, but the material was somewhat different. Its appearance made Diakum feel very familiar. After a moment of judgment, he finally recognized the origin of this thing.

This is the core left after the purification of K'ure's crystal body, and it is the crystal at the center of the Naaru's "jigsaw puzzle" body.

Dick didn't know what K'ure was going to do with this thing, but he could probably guess that this was K'ure's last "gift" to him, or perhaps an advance "reward."

After all, K'ure had previously asked him to help look after its orc children.

This Naru is really a man of the scene.

"You've already given me a red envelope, so it would be awkward for me not to take it. So, thank you, my friend! Leave this world that you've protected for over two hundred years to me!"

Dick reached out and grasped the Naaru core crystal.

He thought this thing must be very strong, but the reality was beyond his imagination.

The moment it came into contact, the scorching crystal began to "melt", just like two substances from the same source "assimilating" each other. The moment it penetrated into the flesh and blood, it turned into a hot current that flowed into the body of the sentinel.

At this moment, the golden rune transformed into a burst of light, dancing before Dick's eyes:

【

External forces access!

Path of Power: The Light of the Force, Legacy of the Naaru.

Access method: integrated enhancement.

Access Effect: K'ure gave his morality and oath to the young warrior, but left his glorious core to you. Perhaps it was aware of the final choice of its friend Lula, it recognized your responsibilities and mission, and was willing to become a force to support your progress.

hint!

The K'ure Core and L'ura Legacy have been fused!
The transformation progress of the special race "Descendants of Holy Light·Mythical Race Mutant" is accelerated to 60%.

hint!

The racial talent "Lura's Legacy" has been replaced with "Naaru's Legacy".

The effect of this talent is enhanced as follows: your intelligence, spirit, endurance, holy light affinity and other attributes are raised to the current rank "perfect" level.

hint!

The racial talent "Radiant Body" is replaced with "Radiant Body·Perfect"

This talent's effect is enhanced to: You will inherit 100% of the Radiant Energy pool and Holy Power load of a complete Naaru (Demigod), and your Radiant Energy/Holy Power recovery speed is increased to the level of a Naaru (Demigod). Tip!

K'ure sensed your single-mindedness and devotion in walking the path of Holy Light, and realized that your path did not require interference from other forces, so it left behind a final legacy to help you complete the improvement of your potential.

The number of your common profession slots is reduced by 1, and the number of your legendary profession slots is increased by 1.

hint!

Your understanding of the "Priest" career path has reached the standard for changing jobs, so the second legendary/heroic job currently available is: Archon/Oracle.

Please choose to change your job as soon as possible.

caveat!

The gap between your Eredar bloodline and your Naaru Mythic bloodline potential is too large, which will greatly enhance your Holy Light power and destructive power, but will also make it easier for you to enter the 'sanctified' state.

Please enhance and release the potential of your Eredar bloodline as soon as possible, so as not to lose your mortal mind and necessary emotions after over-consecration.

caveat!

Your current pool of radiant energy and holy power recovery speed have far exceeded the average level of the "Legendary" rank, but your individual strength is not enough to touch the "Demigod" boundary, so your holy power will accumulate quickly and frequently exceed the upper limit of your body's tolerance.

To avoid entering an overload state, please try to consume and release excess Holy Power as soon as possible when Holy Power is accumulated.

】

"Ugh"

After Dick read this series of prompts, he let out a sigh of mixed meaning, finally realizing how precious what Kure had left him was.

That guy made the same choice as Lula.

The two guardian Naaru who originally resided in the world of Argus both chose Diakum as their true "successor".

It's hard to say whether this is good or bad, but Dick has clearly learned from these hints that if he gets the "legacy" of another Naaru, he will most likely become a true "humanoid Naaru". Unfortunately, the blessings he has received have exceeded the limit he can currently hold.

The guys at Holy Light were too generous, and now that generosity was costing him his life!

This is an exaggeration.

But the fact is that if Dick cannot frequently consume the rapidly accumulating holy power, he will really quickly wear away his emotional fluctuations as a mortal in the frequent sanctification, and put himself into a dangerous "divine" state.

The Naaru are not affected by divinity because they are born as mythical creatures. Properly controlling power is the instinct of superior creatures, but mortals cannot usurp the right to call themselves "gods" because they simply cannot control the ability that comes from the "divinity of the Force."

However, no matter how dangerous it is, that is a matter for the future. The choice Diakum must make now is to choose a career direction for his second legendary career.

This was an unexpected surprise.

Dick was very satisfied with the combat effectiveness of the Sun Herald, who had been transferred from a garrison officer. He was now really looking forward to the bonus that his second legendary career would bring him. In addition, if he wanted to fight against the side effects of "sanctification", then he had a "good opportunity" with both risks and benefits.

Without much hesitation, Dick made his choice after finishing his thought:

[The individual's life level is detected to be "Legendary", which meets the conditions for job transfer!

The individual's affinity for the Holy Light Force is detected as "Current Rank·Perfect", which meets the conditions for job transfer!

The individual's intelligence and mental attributes are detected as "Current Rank·Perfect", which meets the conditions for job transfer!

The proficiency of each major skill of the individual "Priest" profession has been detected to have reached "Perfection", meeting the conditions for job transfer!

The legendary/hero class "Priest → Archon" job transfer has begun!
The skills are replaced as follows:
The "Word of Power" skill enhancement sequence has been replaced with the "Holy Word" sequence, giving the priest's magic more powerful power, longer-lasting special effects, more powerful healing effects, and cooler light and shadow visual effects.

New legendary skills:
Holy Word: Punishment: Releases a Holy Light Punishment that deals massive Holy damage and applies a "temporary magic ban/spell interrupt" effect to a single target.

Holy Word: Serenity: Releases holy light to heal the wounded and applies the "Divine Protection" effect to a single target. This skill can be released simultaneously with the Paladin's legendary skill 'Blessing of Protection: Defense Specialization (not learned)'.

Holy Word: Spirit: Releases Holy Light to strengthen the endurance, intelligence, and mental attributes of a single/group target to the individual's endurance limit in a short period of time, and applies the [Energy Infusion] effect to it, greatly enhancing the combat effectiveness of the single/group target in a short period of time.

New legendary talent [Bright Archon]:
The Original Light has witnessed the miracles you have created. He is very satisfied with the hand of his destiny and has bestowed grace on you, promoting you to be the commander of faith of the people of light!

Your resistance to radiant energy is greatly increased.

The effectiveness of all your healing and protective skills is greatly increased.

The duration of all your enhancement skills is greatly increased.

Your [Kings Guard/Spirit of Redemption] will inherit 100% of your original body's destructive and healing abilities, and can also simultaneously inherit your "Sanctification" status.

Your [Holy Aura] skill has been upgraded to a passive effect. Every time you attack, block, or receive a hit, an aura of searing power radiates from you, healing your allies and punishing your enemies.

Due to the bonus of the legendary talent [Bright Sun], your holy aura will release an additional [Lesser Holy Slash] for all enemies it touches.

New legendary talent [Dark Archon]:
The darkness of the boundless void covets all holy souls walking in the light. After witnessing your contribution to the primordial light, the lightless sea is eager to bring supreme souls like you into their ranks. The merciful holy light allows its chosen people to participate in such a trial of faith.

But please remember, trials are only trials! Never follow the temptations given by darkness and stray from the path of faith.

Your resistance to shadow energy is greatly increased.

In Shadow Priest form, the destructive power of all your damaging skills is greatly increased.

In Shadow Priest form, the duration of all your spell-type skills is greatly increased.

Your [Shadow Fiend/Shadow Phantom] inherits 100% of your original body's destructive power and spell resistance, and can also inherit your "Mind Frenzy" status.

Your [Vampiric Touch] skill has been upgraded to a passive effect. Every time you attack, block, or receive an attack, you apply Vampiric Touch to enemies around you, dealing Shadowburn damage and healing you.

hint!

You have not yet comprehended "Priest Shadow Form". This talent is temporarily sealed. Please unlock the "Light and Shadow Coexistence" doctrine as soon as possible and deepen your study of the Holy Light doctrine.

caveat!

Because of the covetousness of the void force, every time you transform into "Shadow Form", your faith will be tested and "Mind Madness" will continue to accumulate.

In the "Mind Frenzy" state, the destructive power of all your Shadow Priest skills will be greatly increased, and the dark focus will be on the enemy's mind, causing [Fear], [Madness], and [Insane] effects.

Once the "mind frenzy" exceeds the threshold, it will cause your faith to shift. After multiple faith shifts, you will be expelled from the Holy Light Force.

New legendary talent: Light and Darkness

You will be able to switch freely between the "Light Archon" and "Dark Archon" forms.

When you switch to Dark Archon, your connection to the Light Force will be temporarily blocked, and you will instead connect to the Void Force of the Sunless Sea and manipulate shadows and void energy to fight.

hint!

When the Dark Archon form is canceled, you will be forced to accept a "Faith Test". If a faith deviation occurs, your connection with the Holy Force will be weakened and your connection with the Void Force will be strengthened.

caveat!

Faith deviation will also affect the punishment power of your other legendary profession [Holy Light Force·Sun Herald].

hint!

The legendary class Archon has a unique class appearance. Your "Seal of Naaru's Blessing" will be replaced with the "Seal of the Archon". In different forms, the Seal of the Archon will present the appearance of "Glory" and "Void".

caveat!

The legendary Archon class must walk between light and darkness, engaging in an eternal struggle with one's own soul. Especially when the "Void Entity" exists in the world you live in, you will be subject to more dangerous mental temptations in the form of a Dark Archon. Please always be firm in your will.

There are no powerful void entities in the world you are currently in, and you will not suffer any additional mental interference when you enter the Dark Archon form in this world.

Extra tips:

[Ha, you have indeed embarked on this path. Since you helped me win some money, I will give you one more reminder. Remember it!
As the saying goes, when you gain something you will inevitably lose something, but the opposite is also true. When you lose something you will inevitably gain other benefits. If you lose your faith, you will lose more; if you strengthen your faith, you will also gain more.

You don’t understand, right?

It doesn't matter if you don't understand. As a priest, you shouldn't ask about the Lord of the Void. You will understand when the time comes. Besides, why would I have any unrealistic fantasies about the mind of a garrison officer?
However, when you are finally abandoned by the Holy Light due to your bad luck, I will generously provide you with a new job.

Well, believe me, being a Saint of the Void is much cooler than being a Dog of the Holy Light! 】

】

"Boiled!"

Dick uttered a rare curse word that a saint shouldn't say.

Because from this damn message, he finally confirmed that the bastard who had been "sending barrages" to him was actually from the "Void Realm" and seemed to be a very powerful Void Lord.

I know that only the Void's force system, which is neither picky nor tasteful, can produce such a weird and evil bastard.

But he ultimately did not continue to violate the rules that a clergyman should follow. The moment he turned around, Diakum saw his current self in the broken crystal next to him.

The mark of light on his forehead disappeared.

Instead, there was a geometric holy emblem composed of holy light shadows, which was very similar to the unique form of Naaru, but also different. The majestic seal of the Archon floated above his forehead, which looked more like a mark full of mystery.

"He's quite handsome, and he looks like a complete charlatan."

The Sentinel evaluated himself in this way, and finally said goodbye to K'ure who had returned to the Holy Light, and strode out of this peaceful place. When he left the navigation station, he saw Yrel who was leaning on a warhammer and breathing heavily in front of him.

The kid got himself bruised all over like a reckless and excited novice.

But she won!

She tried to straighten her back and make herself worthy of the responsibilities and mission she was carrying at the moment.

When she saw the saint coming, Yrel was about to ask but saw Dick smiling at her and putting his hand on her forehead. In the flickering warm light, the "Seal of Naaru's Blessing" belonging to Dick was transferred to Yrel's forehead in a "fusion" gesture.

That was a blessing bestowed upon him by K'ure on the world of Argus.

Now he gave this blessing of ancient glory that had accompanied him for more than 25,000 years to Yrel.

He said softly:
"You didn't let it down, nor did you let me down, but your destiny has just begun, Yrel. The further we walk in the light, the longer the shadows behind us will be. One day, we must face ourselves in the shadows.

This road is very difficult, but once you have embarked on it, there is no turning back. I hope you have the courage to keep going until the end."

"I will strive to catch up with you! I will never let down His Majesty K'ure's holy sacrifice!"

Yrel said it loudly, but Dick thought that Yrel didn't understand what he really wanted to say to her. He could only say that the garrisons in the universe probably shared the same thought process.

Of course, Diakite is definitely an exception.

His intelligence attribute is very high, which proves that he is very smart, so smart that he cannot be measured by the standards of a garrison officer.

Seeing Irel's enthusiastic and enthusiastic expression, the Sentinel didn't say much. He just patted the recruit on the shoulder and said:

"I believe in you, just as His Majesty K'ure has always believed in us! Let's go. K'ure's story ends, but our journey must continue. Grab your weapons and go kill a few white orcs to amuse yourself.

In the name of the Holy Light, He who witnessed the tragedy allowed us to kill today."

"Saint, there is one more thing!"

Yrel took out the box containing the Naaru Dark Crystal from her bosom. She opened it and pointed at the Naaru fragment that had completely lost its cold and dark nature. She said to Dick:

"Just now, while I was fighting, His Majesty K'ure strengthened my holy light and helped me purify this crystal, but I don't know how to use it."

"Use it to make a weapon to enforce K'ure's morality. The Naaru will mercifully forgive every guilty soul, and your mission is to send them to see it."

"Oh, okay! I'll listen to you."

Ps:

Thanks to brother “Huo Zheng Ting Hao” for the four silver alliances, and thanks to brothers “konstanzzz” and “ASSASSINZZC” for the alliance leader rewards.

I was wrong. It turns out that I was completely ignorant of the generosity of my brothers and sisters. But as we all know, World of Warcraft players never shirk their responsibilities. So, I currently owe you: 60+40+10! I will definitely pay it back before the book is finished!
