Pick up a bargain?
Is it like putting a mouse into the rice jar?
The serious and sanctimonious hypocrite Duke did a good job of concealing his secretly happy expression.
No, no!
I have to be dignified. If I show my happiness on my face, won't I be laughed at?
whee!
This is a huge benefit!
If the power of the four elements can be explored by oneself and the methods and magic formulas of use can be reversed, then the high-end laws of the arcane system are not something that can be obtained easily.
The magic that the dragons had passed down was already a rare and emasculated version. After 25,000 years of development, some of it had been lost, and some had been changed beyond recognition by later generations. If one wanted to get the original rules first-hand, one had to work hard on Malygos.
Under normal circumstances, it would never be Duke's turn to touch these exploding titan runes.
But the successor is not competent enough!
The five-color guardian dragons only correspond to one law, and other guardian dragons cannot touch the magic titan runes at all. But the Wyrmrest Temple cannot just let the titan runes scatter everywhere. This is a bigger deal than the rebellion of the guardian dragons.
If there are traitors, just kill them.
The loss of the rune is a great sin for the Wyrmrest Temple.
Although the titans have not returned to Azeroth for more than 20,000 years, a group of titan Guardians are still faithfully performing their duties. Not to mention those far away, in neighboring Ulduar alone, there are several guys who are at the same level or even half a level higher than the Guardian Dragons.
Once the blame is put on her, even Alexstrasza won't be able to bear it.
After all, Duke is a guardian recognized by the star-soul of Azeroth, so it can't be considered a leak.
Anyway, instead of staring blankly, the four guardian dragons could only rush over in a swarm, first kill Malygos who was foolishly playing with his own corpse puzzle, and leave the task of picking up the advantage to Duke.
Duke would never do such low-level things as plucking feathers from passing geese or robbing people when they pass by.
Does Duke need to deduct some titan runes?
fart!
You can just make a copy directly, why make it so ugly and cut off a part.
In the eyes of bystanders, each single titan rune is composed of thousands of small runes pieced together in an irregular way to form a unique magic circuit, and then become a law formula that is equivalent to the origin of magic in a certain world.
This kind of complex titan rune, even a single rune, is enough for an ordinary wizard to study for ten or eight years.
Is Duke an ordinary mage?
Don't joke!
With the help of the system AI, Duke had long begun researching and analyzing the titan runes.
With the foundation of observing the four guardians in Archavon's treasure house, Duke has a very deep understanding of the titan runes, and there are hundreds of millions of contingency plans in the system.
All that was left to do now was to compare that part of the runes with Malygos' runes, and to infer the possible magical laws and resulting reactions.
Over there, two of the four guardian dragons were tearing up Malygos, while the other two were expressionless as they tore him apart. It was only a matter of time before Malygos, who was already only half alive, was torn into eighteen pieces. Even the idiot couldn't save him.
On this side, Duke was having a great time picking up runes.
Kalecgos said bitterly: titan Runes are not something that can be picked up by physical touch. Each titan Rune contains its own unique law. If it is touched by different types of elements or entities, the rune will trigger a self-destruct system and disintegrate.
On the contrary, touching the corresponding laws and elements will slow down the reaction and tend to be peaceful. However, this is only a temporary reprieve. To truly return the runes to their original positions, there must be a qualified carrier to engrave all the titan runes into a powerful soul with the specified attributes.
But he suddenly discovered that not only was he inefficient, but his soul was also far from capable of carrying the titan Rune. But Duke, the guest actor, did his job more smoothly than him.
As a last resort, Kalecgos shouted, "Your Majesty Alexstrasza! I cannot bear all the titan Runes. Can Lord Edmund help me bear some of them?"
The guardian dragons of three skin colors, red, green and bronze, all bulged their eyes. What a spectacular scene!
Just let Duke have a go.
You, the successor, can't even inherit the complete heritage, what are you doing?
Alexstrasza, who had never had a particularly good temper, could only suppress her anger and turned to ask, "What do the other guardian dragons think?"
Nozdormu: "It does not matter."
Onyxia: "Ditto."
Ysera: "That's all there is to it."
The Red Dragon Queen glared at Kalecgos, the useless backup guardian dragon, and then turned to Duke and yelled, "Duke, please keep the titan Rune for a while until Kalecgos gets better. Then, please return it to Kalecgos."
"No problem. I swear I won't spy on the titan Runes belonging to the Blue Dragonflight."
Duke had just finished swearing when a thunderclap suddenly sounded in the distant sky.
"Boom!"
A ray of white light instantly split half of the western sky.
Duke really didn't believe it: "As long as Lord Kalecgos needs it, I will send the rune back at any time."
"Boom boom—"
Two flashes of lightning suddenly appeared in the north and south directions at the same time.
"I, Edmund Duke, swear in the name of the Demigod of the Azeroth Demon Network..."
"Boom, boom, boom, boom!" The lightning and thunder seemed to be endless.
Hey! Who is here to survive the calamity? Get out of here now!
Although he said this in his mind, Duke actually flew towards the large titan runes that were larger in size and put a heavier burden on the soul.
Small rune?
Haha, do I have to pick up something a second time when my system has already analyzed it instantly?
Pure Kalecgos doesn't know!
How did he know that Duke was so strong?
He only saw Duke bravely shouldering the heavy burden and using his powerful soul to carry those large titan runes, and he was almost moved to tears.
When he focused on picking up small runes, his efficiency was greatly improved.
One man and one dragon, they used the overflowing elements to maintain the free titan runes as much as possible, and then temporarily absorbed them one by one and fixed them on their own souls. It took them more than an hour to complete the task.
During this period, thousands of giant dragons from the entire Wyrmrest Alliance surrounded this airspace as bodyguards and could not go anywhere.
On the contrary, in the ground battle below, Lord Roar led the orcs of the Warsong Clan to kill those half-dragons and dragonmen who were already dead.
Malygos?
This stuff has been torn apart a long time ago!
Of course, his soul could not be captured, because from the moment he was stabbed by the sword, the core of his soul was left in Frostmourne.
Maybe when we meet again, he can become a dragon soul lich.
