How could Ravenholdt not have any say in the authorities?
But he was destined not to tell the truth to Bohun, because his service to the authorities was secret.
After Lothar officially took office in Alterac, Li De recommended Ravenholdt to Lothar, who was responsible for Alterac's intelligence and assassination work.
But to the outside world, Ravenholdt, like other nobles, is basically in a state of idleness.
Ravenholdt has always seen the changes in Alterac in the past few days, but he did not choose to act rashly because he was not sure whether Dathrohan was deceived or whether he was sincerely colluding with those nobles.
Currently, no one in the Alterac authorities can restrain Dathrohan's tiger. A slight mistake will cause huge damage.
What worried Ravenholdt even more was that after his secret investigation, he discovered that the people behind this conspiracy were vaguely connected to the ideology of Lordaeron.
Past experiences made Ravenholdt not trust Lordaeron at all. Combined with the news of the death of Archbishop Faol a few days ago, he even suspected that this conspiracy was planned by Lordaeron.
Archbishop Fao has always maintained a good relationship with Lothar and Li De. Now that the archbishop has passed away, Alterac has also lost someone to speak for them in the Holy Light Church. It is very likely that someone will take the opportunity to attack.
Ravenholdt did not dare to act rashly for many reasons and could only collect evidence secretly.
But now he really couldn't bear it anymore. There were various signs that the nobles were trying to take over the authority, and Ashkandi's life was also in danger.
At this time, Ravenholdt decided to take a desperate risk and seek help from Antonidas.
In fact, Antonidas himself has been building the magic core in Alterac, but his arrival is secret because the Supreme Council is still a confidential organization at the moment.
If this conspiracy was really planned by Lordaeron, it would be difficult for Ravenholdt to guarantee that Antonidas would be on their side. Meeting Antonidas at this time, Ravenholdt also wanted to know what the other party’s motives were.
The reason is to choose to wait and see about the current situation.
What a coincidence, in fact, the site for building the magic core was not chosen anywhere else, but in the former Barov's mansion.
This project is secret. Apart from Lothar and Lid, no more than one person in Alterac knows about it. The location is chosen in a relatively independent new neighborhood, making it much easier to keep it secret.
Even the Hanhai people who maintained the Xinsheng District didn't know what the closed office was doing, so after Ravenholdt greeted Andel who was stationed here, he continued to sneak outside the gate of the mansion.
The docking code was a series of knocks with a special rhythm. After repeated two and four times, seven responses of varying lengths came from the door, and then the door of the mansion was opened.
The person who opened the door was a mage wearing a purple robe. The pattern on the front of the robe was a huge eye. This is the "Violet Eye", the symbol of the mage city-state. It represents that the mage has a relatively high position.
At this time, the mage was holding a cat and looking at Ravenholdt suspiciously.
Neither of them knew anyone, but the password was correct, so it showed that they could trust each other.
"Hello, I am Ravenholdt, who is in charge of intelligence work."
The mage nodded and let Ravenholdt in. The cat in his arms stared at Ravenholdt curiously, with a pair of bright eyes as beautiful as sapphires.
"Okay Mr. Bigworth, you go and play alone for a while."
The mage scratched the cat's chin, called its name, and let the cat go. He casually summoned two chairs and sat down, not forgetting to signal Ravenholdt to sit.
"Introduce yourself, Magister Kel'Thuzad of Dalaran."
When introducing himself, Kel'Thuzad seemed very reserved. He did not say that he was one of the youngest magisters in history, nor did he mention the possibility of entering the next Kirin Tor Council of Six.
But even so, Ravenholdt can also feel the pride from the other party.
"I have something very important to meet with His Majesty Antonidas. Can you take me to see the Grand Magister?"
Ravenholdt stated his intention straight to the point, and Kel'Thuzad blinked twice.
"I'm sorry, the Grand Magister can't see you anymore. Your Majesty left Alterac yesterday."
"What? The Grand Mage has left?!"
Ravenholdt was a little out of sorts, Kel'Thuzad patiently explained.
"The magic core is initially completed. Your Majesty successfully triggered the teleportation magic and returned to Dalaran without using your own magic.
Normally, Your Majesty should have teleported back, but then Your Majesty sent me a message in Dalaran. He had just learned of the death of Archbishop Faol, and as a friend, he had to prepare for the Archbishop's funeral.
So I am left here to lead a few mages to maintain the magic core and conduct follow-up observations."
Ravenholdt sighed sadly.
"Oh, why did His Majesty Antonidas return to Dalaran at this time!"
Kel'Thuzad twirled the mustache on his lips and asked curiously.
"Did something happen in Alterac? You know, in order to build the magic core, we have not contacted the outside world for a long time. Even Your Majesty only learned of the Archbishop's death when he returned to Dalaran.
God, I swear I'm almost getting used to the smell of that awful magic bread."
Ravenholdt frowned slightly. Although he did not doubt the authenticity of the other party's words, he did not like the way Kel'Thuzad spoke.
The mage who studies arcane magic naturally does not believe in the Holy Light, and neither does Ravenholdt, but when describing the death of a respectable elder, his tone was too frivolous.
This has nothing to do with faith, Ravenholdt can only understand it as a matter of upbringing.
But no matter how disgusted he was with the other party, Ravenholdt still had to stay here patiently. Now his doubts were solved. Antonidas was not waiting and watching the situation, but these mages who were concentrating on the magic circle were not interested at all.
know this.
Since the Kel'Thuzad in front of him was entrusted by the Grand Magister to be in charge of this place, it meant that he was trustworthy. At the very least, he could help convey a message to Antonidas.
Ravenholdt spoke to Kel'Thuzad sincerely, briefly and concisely describing the current situation in Alterac with emphasis.
"Your Majesty the Magister, please convey these words of mine to His Majesty Antonidas truthfully. Alterac needs his help now."
"You mean the nobles are planning a rebellion? The accomplice is the Paladin Dathrohan? This is not possible. Our magic core was built for the Alliance Commander and the Supreme Council. Dalaran does not trust anyone except these two. Magic.
The secret must not fall into the hands of the rebels."
While Kel'Thuzad expressed his attitude clearly, his attitude was unhurried and he looked completely confident.
"I will report your words to the Grand Mage truthfully. Please rest assured that a stupid rebellion cannot escape the control of the Mage."
After saying that, Kel'Thuzad summoned a magic puppet and ordered the puppet to receive Ravenholdt for him.
"You can ask it for whatever you want. It can make you coffee, give you a massage...well, that's all."
After saying that, Kel'Thuzad left Ravenholdt here and went upstairs alone to use the magic core to transmit his voice back to Dalaran.
Although it was a bit rude, Kel'Thuzad was practicing what he said. The secrets of magic should not be revealed to others easily.
Ravenholdt sat on the chair, put his hands between his legs and waited anxiously. As for the magic puppet, he stood in front of Ravenholdt in a daze, waiting for instructions.
This magical puppet has a blue-silver body and seems to be made of stone and steel. Ravenholdt would have been curious about it in normal times, but now he obviously does not have the leisure and leisure.
After waiting downstairs for half an hour, the door to the room behind the railing on the second floor was finally pushed open, and Kel'Thuzad walked down with a confused expression.
"The Grand Magister's order is very strange... Why don't you join me for advice?"
Ravenholdt nodded hurriedly, making a gesture of listening.
"His Majesty said that he understands, and then assigned me to cooperate with you. But the request is to maintain the status quo. Apart from ensuring the safety of the people affected by the impact, do not do anything extra. Everything must be decided after Marshal Lothar returns.
"
After finishing speaking, Kel'Thuzad also said to himself.
"They are just a group of guys who are destined to be abandoned by the times. They can just be swept into the garbage dump of history. Why bother? Even if there are Paladins involved, they can be easily solved by sending three magisters. I really don't understand.
…”
Kel'Thuzad did not understand Antonidas's intentions, but Ravenholdt understood something. It seemed that the Archmage was also thinking about what role Lordaeron played in this.
Ravenholdt didn't speak, Kel'Thuzad was still talking to himself.
"Your Majesty always looks forward and backward in some aspects, just like the research in certain fields. The orc death knight shows that there is a huge academic system right in front of us. How can we turn a blind eye?"
After muttering quietly for a while, Kel'Thuzad suddenly realized that there was an outsider like Ravenholdt present, and even kept silent.
On the other side of Dalaran, after closing the information channel, Antonidas's eyes became extremely deep.
"Old friend, is this what you have been worried about? I really didn't expect that your life has just passed away, and some people are beginning to be impatient to wait.
Haha, it looks like the funeral in a few days is going to be interesting.
It's a pity that your funeral has to be polluted by these things. I originally wanted to have a quiet heart-to-heart talk with you."
The nobles of Alterac could not have imagined that the work they did out of their wits would be misinterpreted as an ideological struggle within the Holy Light Church.
And soon, this will bring huge changes to the alliance.
