Chapter 744: Alchemy

I hesitated and thought about retreating.

Compared with a true hero like Lothar, Duke felt ashamed.

His title of legendary hero is more like a blasphemy to the word "hero".

It has nothing to do with past performance, it is purely a difference in ideological level.

Duke summoned up the courage to say, "Yes, Anduin, in fact, you may also know that the longevity of the high elves and their original ancestors, the night elves, actually comes from the blessing of the dragons. To be precise, it comes from the blessing of Nozdormu."

Lothar half-closed his eyes. He seemed to have thought of what Duke was going to say. He gently waved his hand to stop Duke before he could say it.

"Perhaps living beings will instinctively pursue so-called longevity, immortality, or even eternal life. But I don’t think that too much time is a good thing for a living being. Look at those high elves. Even if they don’t have endless lifespans, what have they done in the past few thousand years? They have fallen and corrupted because of emptiness, and they have imprisoned their own minds and the minds of all their compatriots because of their lack of ambition. In nearly seven thousand years, has the entire country of Quel’Thalas ever made any progress?"

What Lothar said made so much sense that Duke was speechless.

"It is precisely because human life is short that we cherish it. Humans will seize the most brilliant and glorious years of their lives to invent, create, and do all kinds of valuable things. Look, when I was young, the whole world only knew swords and magic."

Then Lothar pointed his finger at Duke’s forehead and said, "However, the hot weapons and steam civilization that you have promoted have overturned the lives of the people of the entire Stormwind in the past thirteen years. If it weren’t for the existence of extraordinary professionals, if it weren’t for the fact that cannons can’t destroy the undead and demons, there would be no need for long swords and holy light to exist. Think about it, isn’t this a miracle created by mankind?"

Duke’s breathing suddenly became rapid. He waited, eager to hear Lothar’s final words.

Sure enough, Anduin Lothar, this name with sacred meaning, the greatest words left by the greatest man of this era, did not disappoint Duke.

That means:

"Life is great because it is short, and life is brilliant because it is limited!"

It was like a sudden enlightenment, like a bucket of ice water poured over him on a scorching hot day. Duke was shocked beyond words.

Duke suddenly understood why Lothar chose not to marry for life and would rather let the noble and great Arathi bloodline end with his generation. It was because with a more inclusive and greater alliance, Lothar believed that the bloodline of Emperor Thoradin had no need to continue to exist.

Suddenly I want to cry.

But I can’t cry!

Lothar left, leaving Duke alone, staring silently into the distance in the wind.

As the night deepened, Ilucia came to Duke’s side without him noticing.

"It’s getting late. Rest now. If the soldiers below see you looking depressed, they will also doubt your future."

"Um."

In the past ten years, in order to avoid provoking Lordaeron, the Barov family has not sent their collateral descendants to hold important positions in Southshore City. However, as the former lord of Southshore, the Barov family’s influence is everywhere, and they are the actual masters of the Southshore city-state.

Therefore, the Barov family owns an independent villa on the hill west of Nanhai City.

Following Ilucia to this so-called resting place, Duke was shocked to find that the style of this villa was exactly modeled after the villa on the Stone Cairn Lake where he often lived.

Not only the appearance, but also the things inside, except for the extremely valuable ones that cannot be copied, are arranged exactly the same. The master bedroom is decorated according to Duke’s bedroom in Karazhan.

Obviously, this is not something that can be done overnight.

More importantly, many things in the villa have obvious Fengxing style, which are traces left by the two hostesses of Stone Cairn Lake Villa. Even many very small details were discovered and imitated by her. If Ilucia was a jealous or petty woman, she would never do this.

What is attentiveness?

That’s what it means to be attentive!

Duke suddenly sighed, Ilucia was too nice to him.

During the ten years since he disappeared, Ilucia has been supporting the entire Edmund family without regrets, ensuring that his policies and plans can continue to be implemented, and even providing for all the expenses of his so-called fiancée Jaina.

When he just came back and his magic circuits were disordered, she did not hesitate to split her own soul and donated her magic circuits to help him overcome the difficulties.

When he rushed to Dalaran to lay siege to Arthas for the first time, Ilucia, bearing the pain in her soul, rushed back to Stormwind to organize the logistical supplies for the army’s departure.

The eldest daughter of the Barov family, whose family was almost completely destroyed, silently shouldered so much with her feminine body and weak shoulders...

However, she never envied Alleria and Vereesa in the slightest. She put herself in a humble position and did all this silently.

"Ilucia?"

"Huh!?" Ilucia, who was originally tugging at the edge of her skirt nervously, not knowing whether Duke liked it or not, was stunned for a moment before she came to her senses.

"While I’m back, let me restore your magic circuits."

"No, I... you are about to fight, you need it more..."

Obviously, Ilucia misunderstood.

Duke said nothing, but just kissed her lips deeply.

"Hmm... Hmm..." The uneasy woman’s heart suddenly calmed down.

Duke smiled: "Don’t you think that if you get the magic circuit back, it will be easier to open a portal to find me?"

Ilucia’s face instantly turned red, from her cheeks to her neck, to her collarbone, to her half-exposed breasts, all were bright red: "Actually... I didn’t mean to hold you back today... But when I thought about how I haven’t really gotten you yet, and I might lose you soon, I suddenly felt very scared."

Duke breathed into Ilucia’s sensitive ear: "Today, in addition to completing your magic circuit, I will also help you teach you a kind of alchemy."

alchemy?

When did Duke learn this?

Or did Duke and the cat learn it in Karazhan over the past ten years?

Duke added in a low voice: "It is the most mysterious human alchemy in the world!"

What?

The human body is amazing.

It consists of 45% to 75% water, about 8% blood, 35% to 40% bones, and some protein, fat, and muscle.

The specific method is to purify the mother body first, usually just wash it clean, then draw a magic circle with your fingers, generally focus on attacking important parts, wait for the mother body to heat up, and finally the most important step - pull out the long sword needed to summon life, stab it into the center of the magic circle, repeatedly use straight stabs, left and right stabs, and circular stabs until the light of life bursts out from the sword tip.

Well, in ten months there will be a chance to complete Human Alchemy!
