Whether it was the mages on duty far away in Northrend, the various posts in the Eastern Kingdom, or the mages at the frontlines of Mount Hyjal, they all welcomed Duque's policy of halving the price of mental strength for fire magic.
All along, the destructive power of Fire Magic had been the undisputed leader among the three elements.
But in this life, because Du had led a team to fight against Ragnaros' clone in the Molten Core and created the Magic Net, the use of mental strength for fire magic was much higher than in history. Unfortunately, there was a limit to the number of times it could be used.
Now that the price of mental strength for a fire spell was halved, the cost-effectiveness of fire magic was far higher than that of ice and arcane magic.
It could be imagined that from today onwards, there would be more followers of the Five Fireball Church.
This was just the benefit of selling themselves to Pharaoh for the Magic Net.
The greater benefit was at the defensive line of Mount Hyjal.
"I know that the mages at the frontlines have made outstanding contributions and great sacrifices in order to protect the world. As the new master of the Land of Fire, I allow you to contract these fire elemental creatures as you wish, as long as it doesn't exceed your own mental strength. "
Duque's announcement sent the entire Dalajan into another kind of uproar.
The development of magic changed with each passing day. Ever since the battle at the Molten Core, the Dalajan mages led by Duque had greatly strengthened the spell [Summon Water Elemental].
The summoned water elemental creatures would improve along with the master's strength. Of course, the main reason was that as the master, the Spellcaster had greater control. Another important reason was that Duque had negotiated a mutually beneficial deal with the Haidacian water elemental.
The Haidacian water elemental would summon its people and compatriots to respond to the summons of the Magic Net Mages.
So in this life, Pharaoh's water elemental was definitely stronger than the Horde's.
Everyone knew that Pharaoh could summon water elemental creatures. As long as the summoning was not canceled, the water elemental creatures would follow the mages around. Let alone attack, they would even be quiet decorations until the mages gave the order to attack.
However, mages never had a spell like [Summon Fire Elemental].
It was awkward just thinking about it. Pharaoh, who was an Ice Mage, could find a Water Elemental Pet. As long as he paid a small amount of Spiritual Energy, an Ice Mage could even let the Water Elemental Pet stay by his bed as a guard while he went to sleep.
The Water Elemental was not annoyed. If you wanted to perform, it would quietly watch you act cool. If you wanted it to beat someone up, it would shoot Frost Arrows. If you wanted it to be a bodyguard, it would beat up whoever beat you up.
The Water Element was so useful that the majority of Fire Mages couldn't accept it.
Fire Mages would eat their own food.
This kind of misery could only be experienced by the Fire Elementalist himself.
For a long period of time, be it the Alliance or the Horde, they used Ice Magic more than Fire Magic.
There was no other reason. The survivability of the Ice Element was much stronger, and it was very useful.
Now that Duque had taken control of the Land of Fire and become the master of the Fire Elemental Realm, the entire world of magic seemed to have been turned upside down.
It wasn't that there were no Fire Mages who wanted to use Fire Elemental creatures as long term summons. Those imaginative Dalajan pioneers even tried to enslave the summoned Fire Elemental creatures by imitating the Warlocks' method of enslaving Demons.
The results were terrible!
Fire Elemental creatures not only consumed more of Pharaoh's Spiritual Energy, but more importantly, Fire Elemental creatures were extremely irritable!
If they were unhappy, they would rather self-destruct than listen to a mere mortal's orders.
It was this characteristic that made Enslavement of the Fire Elemental Essence an unstable, semi-forbidden magic that made it so that I would rather perish than let you off.
Of course, it wasn't that Fire Elemental couldn't be summoned. For example, the Shamans were very good at this. Through the Fire Elemental Totem, they could summon the Fire Elemental for a short period of time to help fight monsters.
Short-term summons were different from long-term bodyguards.
Moreover, in reality, the Shamans' ability to summon Fire Elemental was extremely limited. They would first contact the Fire Elemental Realm with their Spiritual Energy, then humbly ask for the Fire Elemental's help through Spiritual Communication.
Under normal circumstances, the Fire Elemental Totem would be effective.
But … the Fire Elemental could ignore you.
This meant that the Fire Elemental Totem in this world wasn't very effective in actual combat.
Unless it was a Radiant Moon Mage with extremely high Spiritual Energy, very few people would enslave the Fire Elemental. Even if there were people who used it, they would mostly use the Fire Elemental as bombs or walking self-destruct soldiers.
Duque's order for the Fire Elemental to submit to mortals was a completely subversive move.
Using their own Spiritual Energy to attract the Fire Elemental and condense it into a Fire Man couldn't possibly have its own will. How could the summoned Fire Elemental fight?
Summoning Elemental creatures required constant expenditure of Spiritual Energy, but conversely, the Summoner didn't have to worry about every attack of the Elemental creatures.
How could one Fire Elemental compare to two Fire Elemental creatures?
In previous battles, the Fire Elemental would be at the front while the Mages would drink tea at the back.
For a moment, the Pharaoh at the front line of Mount Hyjal was full of ideas, and all sorts of new tricks were developed almost instantly.
Some people contracted four Fire Elemental creatures and really played with five Fireball Gods.
Some people contracted more than ten Inferno Imps in one go and played with Group Fire Arrows.
There were also people who had designs on the Molten Demon Hounds. What the hell, they actually contracted smaller Molten Demon Hounds as mounts. That was so cool that others would die of envy.
There was even an Ice Mage at the Morning Star rank who tried to contract multiple Fire Elemental creatures. He succeeded, and then summoned a Fire Elemental and a Water Elemental at the same time. Unfortunately, before he could truly experience what it felt like to have ice and fire at the same time, the Water and Fire Elemental creatures under him started fighting among themselves.
It wasn't a small fight, but a fight to the death.
This was amazing.
Two Mages had clearly summoned a Water Elemental and a Fire Elemental each. Even if they stood at the side, it would be fine. Why did a Mage summon two Elemental creatures of opposite attributes at the same time and start fighting?
There were too many things that made the Mount Hyjal defense line a little lively, and even messy.
If not for the fact that these Alliance Mages had fought alongside the Night Elves and defended Mount Hyjal to the death not long ago, the old fogies of the Night Elves would have flown into a rage and chased them all away.
Don't f * cking cause trouble in our Holy Mountain!
Duque knew a thing or two about the situation outside.
He didn't have time to care.
It couldn't be helped. If he killed Ragnaros as an outsider, the Fire Elemental creatures wouldn't think much of it. Then the Fire Elemental creatures wouldn't think much of it.
Even if Duque and the rest killed all the Fire Elemental creatures in the entire Land of Fire, it wouldn't matter.
