Alonsos Faol was a transcendent existence to the entire Alliance. As the national religion of the seven kingdoms of the Alliance, he was definitely a great figure who could be on an equal footing with any king.
At this time, the Alliance had just seen the light of victory, and was about to launch a counterattack. However, the news of Archbishop Alonsos's illness at this critical juncture cast a shadow over the Alliance's victory.
It was a huge blow to Andoine, be it publicly or privately.
Publicly, it was because Alonsos had promised that he would mobilize his believers to raise funds for the reconstruction of Stormwind after they reclaimed their territory in Stormwind. Once the most prestigious Alonsos died of illness, the revival of the Stormwind Kingdom would most likely be delayed for a very long time.
Privately, Andoine and Alonsos had been friends for more than 20 years. Now that his old friend was critically ill, Andoine was naturally anxious.
When Duque arrived, the kings who came to visit had already changed a few times.
At this moment, there were only two high-ranking priests from the Church of Holy Light, Andoine, and Uther accompanying Alonsos.
When Duque arrived with Gavinrad, he immediately discovered that the atmosphere was not normal.
"What's going on? Is it a disease or something? "
Duque did not believe that it was a disease.
It was because the priests knew how to get rid of diseases and remove diseases. In this era, the most powerful doctors were the priests. Not to mention Archbishop Alonsos Faol, who was at the top of all the priests.
Secondly, there was the hospital bed.
It was a very special hospital bed. Rather than calling it a hospital bed, it was more appropriate to call it a low water tank. Because Alonsos was sleeping on it, most of his body was submerged in the sparkling holy water. Only his head was propped up against the pillow.
Beside Alonsos, there was a priest who was continuously casting spells to dispel the filthy smell that flowed out of the archbishop's mouth and nose.
Andoine leaned over, and whispered to Duque, "Alonsos seemed to have touched the blood of the demon in the corpse of a tribal chief when he was studying the corpse. Then, he might have triggered a curse in his body. He is now in a terrible state of continuous weakness. "
Seeing Duque enter, Alonsos opened his half-closed eyes. "All of you, leave. Only Uther and Duque will be here."
Andoine wanted to say something but hesitated. In the end, he went out with the two high-ranking priests.
Only Uther was left, purifying the air in the room with low-level dispelling diseases.
Duque was a little hesitant. The historical Faol did not die so quickly.
After winning the war against the Horde, Faol also raised a lot of money to build the Cathedral of Light in the rebuilt new Stormwind City. Hence, he became the Archbishop of both Lordaeron and Stormwind Kingdom.
In order to commend his devotion to the Church of 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 the statue praised Faol's great contribution to the Alliance in the Second War — raising funds to help rebuild Stormwind City and Northshire Abbey.
Faol did not die until the Third War of the Dark Portal, which was before the Undead Scourge invaded Lordaeron. The cause of his death was unknown.
He had never heard of Faol dying.
He thought of a very scary possibility. In the end, he still asked, "Sir Faol, was it that day at the Storm Altar …"
That's right. If there was a variable related to Alonsos, it would be that day when Duque stole the fruits of Gul 'dan's labor. He found this archbishop to help purify the Storm Altar that had been corroded by the demonic power.
Alonsos smiled. "My dear disciple, please swear in the name of the Holy Light that you will not tell anyone about what you saw and heard today."
The muscles on Uther's firm and devout face twitched. "I swear in the name of the Holy Light."
Alonsos then turned to look at Duque. "I will answer your question. Yes and no. "
Yes? Also no?
Duque was a little confused.
"I have spent most of my life spreading the Holy Light, hoping that the Holy Light can drive away all darkness and evil. But I have discovered a fact. Whether the Holy Light drives away evil or darkness devours light, it is a relative process. "
"Relative?"
"That's right. The more devout and pure the soul, the more Holy Light it produces. But only the side with the greater quantity and quality will be the victor of this battle. I did inhale too much demonic power that day. I thought I could purify it with my own power, but obviously I failed. But that's not important. "
"Not important?! Stop joking, Your Excellency, I … "
Alonsos reached out from the holy water and waved, stopping Duque from continuing. "I won't die so easily. As long as you send me back to the Holy Light Cathedral in Stratholme, I will be able to survive with the help of the holy water. At most, I will lose some vitality. This is not the time for me to sleep! The most important thing is you, Duque! "
"Me?!" Duque was stunned.
"Yes! You! " Alonsos pointed at Duque's chest. "In this period of time, you have undoubtedly proven to everyone that you are the brightest star in the Alliance. Your wisdom and foresight almost make me suspect that you are a prophet sent by the Creation Titans. "
"Uh."
Fine, you are half right.
"But I am also most worried about you. Compared to your powerful magic power and wise mind, your will is too weak. If some evil existence wants to deal with you, you are the kind of person who is most vulnerable to corruption. "
Duque, who had been told the truth, felt like his face was on fire.
Yes, he was just an ordinary university student before he transmigrated. Without experiencing the ups and downs of life, they lacked enough sharpening and life experiences. This was his biggest shortcoming, and it was a weakness that he could not solve at the moment.
Therefore, Duque's Fear Spell was a sure hit.
If not for the system elf, he would have died long ago.
"I will be careful."
"No, it is not enough to just be careful. You need a firm belief. Otherwise, if you become the next Savis, that will be the Alliance's nightmare. "
Savis was once the leader of the High Elves, the core leader of the Kaldorei civilization in ancient Kalimdor. His status was second only to Queen Azshara. Afterwards, his soul was corrupted by the ancient god Enzos, which led to the first Burning Legion invasion in the World of Azeroth.
Alonsos' words were very heavy.
What else could Duque say? He could only pinch his nose and accept it. He received a copy of the teachings of the Holy Light from the archbishop.
Before leaving, Alonsos grabbed Duque's hand and said solemnly, "Be careful of Gul 'dan."
