Chapter 140 I want to plant trees

The day after Charlemagne returned to Taquilin disheartened, the largest military town in the southern forest suddenly welcomed a visit from a big man.

The visitor was Prince Kael'thas, the crown prince of Quel'Thalas. Before teleporting back to Dalaran, he first followed his father's instruction and came to visit and win over the new baron who had obviously suffered a certain blow yesterday.

Although Charlemagne is still a little brooding about what happened that day, it is not enough to blame the prince and king on this matter.

With the encouragement of Alleria and Sylvanas and the urging of his mentor, he completed his first private meeting with Prince Kael'thas in the Mage Tower in Taquilin.

Originally, the two of them just communicated in a formulaic aristocratic way, but the gains from the conversation during this meeting far exceeded the expectations of both parties.

First of all, the two conflicted about the consistency of the Silvermoon Council. Although Kael'thas also served as a member of the six-member council in Dalaran, he has always disagreed with this inefficient voting method.

In the nearly one thousand years since he was born, he has seen the parliament to make things difficult for his father many times in various ways. It was also because he couldn't help but bump into Darkan for his father when he was listening in the meeting hall. Find an excuse to put Dalaran far away.

That's right, the power of the Silver Moon Council is so great. Although Osis still chose to abstain from voting as always, but the two members of the moderate faction believed that the prince's respect for the authority of the council was obviously not enough. Laran's "advanced studies" resolutions were all voted in favor of.

Although Anasterian, who had always been gentle, was furious at the rampant parliament after the fact, he was unable to change the regime established by his great-grandfather because of his old age and frailty.

"Kael'thas, now you understand that the excessive power of the Silvermoon Council has greatly weakened the authority of the royal family. When I was young, I also thought about changing this situation. The MPs who came to power are simply not something I can easily remove."

Kael'thas still remembers the expression on Anasterian's face at that time. He has never seen such a bitter and decadent expression on his kind and gentle father. Thinking of the shame of his exile, the young prince A seed has been quietly planted in my heart.

The idea of ​​completely eradicating the Silvermoon Council and allowing the Sunstrider family to take sole power once again appeared in his mind for the first time.

However, when he told Anasterian his thoughts, the Sun King shook his head and rejected his point of view.

“Although I once thought about it, I gave up after thinking about it for many years.”

The current Sun King's eyes are shining with wisdom, "Although it is a great thing for the Sunstrider family to take power alone, it is not necessarily good for the entire Quel'Thalas. You can ensure that you will not do anything after taking power. Make a huge wrong decision? And your descendants won't either?"

"Since our Sunstrider family bears the name of the royal family, we should consider it in line with the royal family status. The existence of the parliament is still necessary, but these guys cannot be allowed to oppose it just for the sake of opposition."

"The system of the Silver Moon Council must be reformed to some extent. I am already old... I will leave this difficult problem to you to think about it slowly in the future."

To this day, Kael'thas still remembers the scene where his most admired father seemed to be shining brightly at that time. For the first time, he thought deeply about the privileges and obligations of his royal family.

In the next hundred years, he gradually changed his original extreme thinking, but his original intention to reform the parliamentary system has never changed. This point undoubtedly resonated with the depressed Charlemagne during this meeting.

As the Sun King said, such an important reform that would shake the foundation of the country cannot be simply implemented. Charlemagne knew that Darkan would betray him sooner or later, but this kind of groundless accusation without evidence alone could not make Anast Ryan made up his mind to do it.

At least Darkan has not done too many things beyond his own racial identity at this stage. Now his dispute with the royal family can be attributed to political differences, but betrayal... this is serious enough.

Charlemagne's idea of ​​staring at Dar'Khan's investigation obviously provided Prince Kael'thas with a good idea. Instead of thinking about finding everyone's weaknesses at once, it is better to specialize in one person. No doubt Dar'Khan is the guy who dances the most. .

At the end of the meeting, Charlemagne told Kael'thas that he planned to find the magic tree Arkandor. The prince himself had never heard of this, but before he left, he opened the door to the Sunfury Path. The portal of the tower directly sent Charlemagne to the mage tower dedicated to the Sunstrider family to meet the Sun King.

Prince Kael'thas, who has now advanced to the 8th ring, opened the portal effortlessly by himself, and after bidding farewell to Charlemagne chicly, he teleported back to Dalaran in a burst of arcane light.

In the back garden of the Sunstrider King's Court, the Sun King, who was a little sorry for not being able to reach Charlemagne's proposal, was stunned when he heard his new proposal.

"Acandor? I seem to have heard it mentioned by King Dath'Remar before. It seems to be a tree of magic power developed by high-level elf scholars to replace the Well of Eternity?"

Charlemagne nodded and said, "That's right, it's that kind of magical tree. I have seen the development and cultivation of Alcandor in the past history of Uldaman, and a druid thousands of years ago. After the power was integrated into the tree species, the seeds were improved."

Afterwards, Charlemagne explained in detail to the interested Sun King the efficacy of improving Alcandor and the process and results of the first tree planting. This miraculous tree that can fundamentally cure magic addiction made Anast Rian immediately complained.

As the king of a country, Anasterian is very aware of the magic addiction of his people. Although the existence of the Sunwell makes this problem less prominent, those mages who go out must carry the Sunwell water anyway. is an inconvenience.

Moreover, the tragic situation of the nightfallen elves in Suramar also aroused his vigilance. He does not want his people to become this inhuman and ghost-like in the future... Although he still firmly believes that the Sunwell The defenses are impenetrable.

Charlemagne has already seen the old king's stubbornness, and this is not the best time to argue with him on this issue. After recruiting Kelisha to understand the situation, Anastrian finally agreed to let Charlemagne go to find Akan Dole, and promised to plant this miraculous tree that can cure magic addiction with the support of Sunwell magic after thorough research.

Crysia was amazed by Charlemagne's erudition, and at the same time expressed her expectation for the improved effect of Arcandor. After all, the problem of magic addiction is not limited to Quel'dorei, but also to Shadorei.

On the day of departure, Kelisha and Luti returned to Suramar with Charlemagne. Next, they need to mobilize the remaining nightfallen elves of Aluneth to move to Quel'Thalas in batches, and to fight with the Nightborne Liaison matters also require a clear plan.
