Chapter 313: The Mage Hunter’s Poor Professional Abilities
King Terenas listened to the Dalaran envoy’s narrative, but in his heart he disapproved of the legendary Dreadlord.
The Dread Lord is powerful, adept at playing tricks and fomenting rebellion.
This method was nothing to King Terenas.
Because he is the master of conspiracy.
The human kingdoms surrounding the Kingdom of Lordaeron were more or less affected by his calculations, and their national strength declined a lot.
Especially the Kingdom of Alterac, which was only a little bit close to collapse.
As an unparalleled wise man who could conquer a country, Terenas really looked down upon the little tricks of the Dread Lord.
However, the Dread Lord is good at spreading plagues, so we still need to take strict precautions against this.
He didn't want to lose too many people because of the plague.
Population means productivity and military resources, and is an important reference for measuring the strength or weakness of a kingdom.
Thinking of this, Terenas had a sincere smile on his face.
"Welcome the mage hunters from your country to come and provide guidance. I wish us a happy cooperation this time!"
As he said this, he stepped down from the throne and enthusiastically shook hands with the Dalaran envoy.
The Mage Hunters are a legendary force.
Their existence exists in the legendary stories of humans fighting against demons.
Although this special force is called Mage Hunters, the members inside are all mages with good strength.
After all, only mages can deal with mages.
Hunting demons is also part of the mage hunters' mission.
But compared to the most professional guardians, the mage hunters are still too weak!
When mage hunters deal with powerful enemies, they will always make various mistakes and even cause serious accidental injuries.
For example, when they hunted Aegwynn and wanted to unilaterally take back the power of the Guardian, they did not hesitate to take out the dangerous Apocalypse Demonic Sword.
The Demonic Sword of Apocalypse is a dead thing.
However, it will slowly corrode people's hearts, turning them into dark messengers spreading plague and fear.
The Darkbringer scared away or killed many of the dwarven inhabitants.
However, when the Darkbringer and Aegwynn faced off, Aegwynn ultimately emerged victorious.
She beat the Dark Messenger into a dog, then dug a hole and buried the Apocalypse Demonic Sword.
The area where the two sides fought became desolate and dilapidated due to the plague and fear, and became a famous deserted place.
Of course, most people don't know this shit.
Otherwise, the dwarves, as victims, would have settled accounts with Dalaran long ago.
Dalaran, on the other hand, continues to beautify the mage hunters and amplify their achievements.
King Terenas, who was unaware of the situation, felt that he had found a treasure.
The cunning King Terenas has been tricked.
Naturally, other human kings are no exception.
Very professional (amateur) mage hunters began to run between human kingdoms, looking for suspicious targets.
They use magic to detect the properties of suspicious targets.
Anyone with the attribute of death would be arrested and tortured.
According to normal logic, this operation is normal.
But humans are a hodgepodge of forces wielding all kinds of power.
Although the power of death is not a good thing.
As a part of spiritualism, it has been passed down in the human world for countless years.
The origins can be traced back to the vrykul, the ancestors of mankind.
The main manifestation of spiritism is to communicate with the deceased and understand what the deceased's last wishes were, or how they died.
Both civilians and law enforcement agencies need help from psychics.
The necromancer himself knows some tricks of the death faction.
Moreover, they often deal with the dead, so their bodies will inevitably be contaminated with the aura of death.
This caused mage hunters to mistake them for Dreadlords.
If it's not the Dread Lord, where does the aura of death come from?
As for the magic detection on them, the energy response was very weak. This must be some kind of special trick of the Dread Lord.
According to the professional procedures of mage hunters, it is natural to arrest the person first and beat him up.
Although the strength of psychics is very weak, their status is not much lower than that of mages.
These spellcasters who are close to daily life have a high reputation among the people at the bottom.
The capture of a psychic by a mage hunter will undoubtedly arouse strong public outrage.
If it weren't for the powerful magical power of the mage hunters, they would have been besieged by the people at the bottom.
Seeing the panic and public resentment in all countries in the world.
Tichondrius was very satisfied with the work of the mage hunter.
What is needed is this state of chaos.
Otherwise it would be too abrupt if rumors and confusion suddenly cropped up in a certain area.
Tichondrius took Kil'jaeden's teachings to heart.
Do things in a low profile, plan slowly, and don't die in vain.
Of course, the educational effect of being gored to death by the White Deer God should be better.
Moreover, the failure of the operation to infiltrate the High Elf Kingdom also made Tichondrius become even more low-key.
It is said that the arcane puppet can spit out a fire dragon more than two hundred meters long.
It must be very powerful!
Tichondrius knew very well that the Dread Lord was not the type to fight head-on.
If the team fights head-on with that kind of arcane puppet, there will definitely be a lot of casualties.
Hiding in the dark and doing things is the most suitable battlefield for the Dread Lord.
The Dread Lords, who implement the purpose of deep lurking, only develop their power in remote villages and towns.
They package themselves as representatives of death.
Teach death spells to believers and promise eternal life.
Eternal life is a temptation that humans cannot resist.
Therefore, this force that focuses on eternal life quickly developed in remote areas.
After the foundation was firmly established, the Dread Lords sent followers into the big cities to preach the great teachings of the Eternal God.
In human society where people are panicked, various cults emerge one after another.
The emergence of such a cult will not attract the attention of mage hunters and official forces.
In fact, both the mage hunters and the official forces are already in trouble!
The mage hunters randomly arrested and beat people, and even put people on the stake and burned them to death, which made the official forces no longer trust them.
The two forces are restraining each other and are basically in a state of internal fighting.
The only places that are relatively peaceful in the human kingdom are Stratholme and the Kingdom of Storm, far to the south of the continent.
Stratholme is the key protector of the Church of the Holy Light.
The Kingdom of Stormwind is far away from the human world, and mage hunters are unwilling to go to such a distant southern country.
Official forces will not arrest people for interrogation as harshly as mage hunters.
Basically, there is no problem after interrogation. The energy detected by the magic props will not react much, and the unlucky ones will be let go.
Under the premise of relative tranquility, there is little room for cults to survive.
But the rest of the human kingdom is terrible!
Rumors spread throughout the kingdom, and cults sprung up like mushrooms after a rain.
The prison is already overcrowded.
There was daily business at the gallows and at the stake.
Even before the Dread Lord unleashed the plague, the human kingdom was in chaos.
Herad was speechless about the chaos in human countries.
He still overestimated the mage hunter's business capabilities.
Letting these guys capture regular demons is fine.
As for capturing the Dread Lord who is good at disguising and hiding.
This is really not something they can handle.
If they continue like this, all human countries will be destroyed by them!
