Standing on Wellin Island, one could see that Duque and Queen Sylvanas were already isolated from the outside world, even though they seemed to still be on the island. The Space Defense Array that originated from the founder of the kingdom, Dathrema Sunstrider, had completely separated Wellin Island from the outside world.
When Arthas invaded the Well of the Sun, Dathrema's remnant soul had made the most heroic resistance for the survival of the High Elves. Unfortunately, he had failed. Arthas had directly torn apart such a rotten soul that was not even worth subduing.
The rest of the things that had not been activated in time were all taken by Duque.
Duque thought to himself, Hmm, these things are the price I have to pay for preserving half of Cuel Salas.
The system elf silently recorded the composition of the magic array and analyzed all the possibilities of the array's evolution. The Radiant Moon Elven Mages by the well all had their mouths wide open.
At this moment, Duque was wearing a pearl robe inlaid with 108 arcane gems. The red robe was inlaid with golden edges of the sun pattern, intertwined with round High Elven inscriptions, and hung to the ground. The center of the magic array pattern under his feet was engraved with many profound ancient Elven words that non-elven elders could not understand. It seemed to be the finishing touch.
Duque's raising of his hand and raising of his foot coincided with the ancient casting gestures of the High Elves. Many auxiliary gestures used for strengthening and amplification were lost even in Cuel Salas.
Duque's movements were slow, and he looked quiet and focused.
Yet, serious men always had a kind of magic that captivated people's hearts.
Especially when Duque was wearing the robe that had been passed down from Dathrema and kept in the museum of the Silver Moon Council, his image overlapped with Dathrema's.
More than one elf uttered the same words as Gina Goldsword. They murmured, "Why do I feel like I'm seeing His Majesty Dathrema …"
Looking at Duque preparing to cast a spell, every High Elf suddenly felt that it was not so uncomfortable to let a human like Duque preside over the Well of the Sun. It was no longer a desperate and painful compromise for the continuation of their race and kingdom, but a true inheritance.
Wind rose!
Clouds surged!
Not just the wind and the clouds, but also magic power. Something was moving toward the Well of the Sun quickly.
All the elves could not help but look at the red-robed figure by the Sunwell — the former Prince Kael 'thas!
He should have left Cuel Salas a long time ago, but due to the pollution of the Sunwell, Kael 'thas was summoned back again.
However, there was no resentment on the face of this pure-hearted prince, only the same worry as the other elves. If he had not submitted to his father, perhaps he would have inherited the throne and made the painful decision of destroying the Well of the Sun.
Right now, he was just a spectator.
"Your Highness, do you really not need our help?" Great Astromancer Solarian whispered into Kael 'thas' ear, "If you really don't need us, we might as well leave."
From Solarian's point of view, she could either join in the operation to save the Well of the Sun in order to wash away the prince's shame and stain, or she could simply leave to protect herself.
He would not be in an awkward position like he was now.
Kael 'thas shook his head as if he was not answering the question. "Thirteen years ago, at the end of the second Gate of Darkness. At that time, Duque was far from being this strong. He was already able to use Antonidas' hand to control the powerful magic power of the Gate of Darkness, which was not inferior to the Well of the Sun, and successfully close the Gate of Darkness. In terms of control, Duque is the best in the world. We have to trust him. "
This was not seeking progress, but also not seeking safety. In the hearts of several hardcore fans, this was the worst choice.
However, this was the decision of the prince they were loyal to — to bet everything on Duque.
Solarian lowered her head, took half a step back, and did not speak.
In fact, Kael 'thas had deliberately misspoken. He could deceive the melee professionals under him, but he definitely couldn't deceive the Astromancers.
Perhaps the magic power of the Gate of Darkness and the Well of the Sun was on the same level, but in fact, there was a huge difference between the two.
The Gate of Darkness itself did not produce magic power. On the contrary, it was a huge magic tool that simply consumed magic power. The magic power used by Gul 'dan to open the Gate of Darkness came mainly from the soul energy obtained from killing a large number of Draenei, as well as the extraction of the life energy of the entire planet Draenor.
The magic power of the Gate of Darkness was huge, but its magic power would not increase by itself. Moreover, what maintained the Gate of Darkness in the later stages was the extraction of life energy from the Swamp of Sorrow, which was now the Cursed Land.
The Well of Sun was different.
The Well of Sun was like a nuclear power plant that was constantly undergoing nuclear fission. The current pollution was the biggest interference to its energy production process.
In the Ancient War ten thousand years ago, because a series of magic reactions interfered with the energy of the water of the first Well of Eternity, there was a big explosion, which led to what later generations called the Cataclysm.
The entire Kalimdor continent was split into several pieces, mainly the Kalimdor continent in the west, the Eastern Kingdom in the east, Northrend in the north, and Pandaria in the south. The original location of the well collapsed into an endless whirlpool. Thus, this tragic war was called the Ancient War.
The Well of Sun also originated from the Well of Eternity. If it exploded, because of its relatively low energy level, it wouldn't be possible to blow up the entire Eastern Kingdom. It wouldn't be difficult to blow up the entire old territory of Cuel Salas into the sky.
Even though he was standing next to him, Kael 'thas was still gambling with Duque with his life!
Duque glanced at Kai Zi, smiled, and nodded. Then, he thought to himself, You're willing to follow me with your life, so of course I won't let you suffer.
Duque calmed his mind and began to activate the magic array further.
Before he started, he had already felt that the energy in the Well of Sun was like a ball that had been squeezed, extended, and squeezed again. If the magic power of the Well of Sun was flour, it wouldn't be a big deal.
But in front of the magnification effect of the system elf, which was like a super-high-power microscope, Duque could see that the molecules of magic power had become very loose and unstable.
The magic power molecules played out the process from birth to youth, to aging, to death. Each process became shorter and shorter.
Duque gently pressed his hands forward.
Suddenly, the muddy well water in front of him sprayed into the sky, turning into countless rainbows that flickered with strange colors, some of which Kael 'thas had never seen before.
The well water kept erupting, soaring into the sky with a momentum even more violent than a volcanic eruption. People who didn't know better would think that it was fireworks blooming in the sky, disappearing, and blooming again … Each blooming became more and more mysterious and blurry.
