Duke once imagined that two magic networks were fighting for the elental energy of Azeroth, just like a hacker war. The two opponents kept moving in areas where they couldn’t see each other, remotely controlling everything in the cyber world, frantically attacking each other’s positions, searching for each other’s location, and trying to deliver a fatal blow.
In fact, Duke thought too much.
If we must describe this battle between the demon kings as a hacker war, it is more like one side prepares viruses, zombie computers, firewalls and so on, while the other side runs downstairs to the other side’s building and turns off the power.
What a fucking imaginary war!
Because they both knew where the other was, the so-called magic war started out like a fight between gangsters!
Duke never thought that Malygos, who was destined to die, would be so shaless as to find a way to cut off the flow of elents in the Deadwind Pass area where Karazhan was located.
As a magical guardian dragon left by the titans, he indeed masters many elental secrets of Azeroth, such as the specific node locations of the long elental river that extends from the planet’s mantle, through the crust and reaches the shallow surface of the Deadwind Pass.
Malygos cannot make a huge elental river disappear completely, but he can temporarily divert it.
If Duke was really one of those traditional mages in Azeroth who could only unleash his full power with the help of the Mage Tower, he would have been on his knees by now.
The Karazhan Mage Tower, which once shone with brilliant arcane light day and night, now only maintains a minimum of light. The tower, lacking the supply of elental veins, appears dim. To keep the entire Mage Tower running, it has to use the elental energy stored in the elental pool.
For Duke, who was about to start a great magic war, this was a direct cut off of reinforcents.
He could certainly defend Karazhan to the death, and continue to use Karazhan as the center of the magic network to compete with Malygos for control of the magic network of the entire world. In this way, he would be like a lonely castle, and perhaps he could hold on for a while, but would still eventually fall.
As the Art of War says: An isolated city cannot be defended!
Duke sneered, "Arthas, you have a good plan."
Sindragosa was a good fighter, but she was ambushed and defeated by Duke’s n, which was a pity for Arthas.
But not sad.
Because the fallen Malygos is the powerful subordinate he truly desires.
With a powerful body of a dragon king level and magical abilities that Arthas extrely lacks, such a powerful undead warrior is the one who can truly help Arthas.
Duke had clearly beaten Arthas to a pulp, but Malygos, this stupid teammate, was about to go over and get eaten. Duke was speechless.
When Malygos stopped acting on his own fantasies and assumptions, he instantly beca a super-powerful being.
For example, now, once Malygos successfully dismantles Duke’s magic network core and severely damages Duke’s magic network, the hundreds of thousands of coalition forces in Northrend will imdiately lose the most powerful magic cover system. All Alliance mages will instantly reduce their strength by 50%, because most military mages learn and cast spells based on the magic network.
Without the magic network, many mages who were forcibly upgraded would suddenly feel like they were in an elental desert, unable to draw even a single elent to support their magic.
At that ti, if Arthas joins hands with Malygos to launch a large-scale ice storm or sothing, the coalition forces will definitely suffer heavy losses or even be in danger of destruction.
"Luckily! Malygos... You are so short-sighted that you don’t even know what the Cloud Age is, right?"
As a ti traveler who has experienced the Internet from its infancy to its explosive developnt in the new era, there are so many concepts on the Internet that can be borrowed into the magic network.
For example, the debate between single-core and multi-core.
Another example is the concept of cloud storage.
Malygos is now like a super single-core computer with an ultra-high frequency CPU. His data storage capacity and computing power are all far superior to Duke’s. This is what he is proud of.
Even if Duke has the system elves as an aid, he may not be a match for Malygos in a one-on-one fight. After all, as the king of magic, his brain capacity and ability to command and cast multiple spells at the sa ti are absolutely god-level in the true sense.
However, Duke had no intention of using a single-core CPU since the establishnt of the magic network.
What he is playing is typical multi-core.
From Khadgar as the core, to Demon King Vek’lor who later joined as the secondary core, and then to a group of elental ssengers below.
Then there are Jaina and Solarian who serve as auxiliary controllers, as well as the Kirin Tor Council led by Kael’thas and the High Mage Corps of Dalaran.
Almost every strong person above the Grand Magus level is the commander of a certain area of the Demon Network.
Duke split up the authority of the magic network, making the magic network present a diversity that others could hardly imagine. Khadgar and Duke’s system elves only existed for coordination.
As for cloud storage, it is actually the result of Duke not distinguishing between public and private affairs, directly controlling the magic nodes of most of the main cities of the Alliance, and transforming them into magic network nodes.
Except for Darnassus, which is directly controlled by Elune, and the Exodar of the Draenei, all major cities are deeply connected to the Demonic Network.
The four elents of earth, water, fire, and wind exist in the entire planet Azeroth in the form of parallel space. In addition to its superior geographical environnt, each main city of the Alliance is also a node of elental veins of varying sizes.
Duke completely copied the magic network map and stored it in every controlled alliance main city.
It can be said that unless Malygos cuts off the magic nodes of all the Alliance main cities, as long as Duke’s spirit is connected to the magic network, he can issue the highest authority commands to the magic network through any main city.
In fact, Malygos discovered sothing was wrong after cutting off the flow of the elental rivers in the two main cities.
Duke’s control over the human magic network was not affected at all.
Instead, he launched a fierce counterattack.
First up is the water elent!
Blue dragons mostly like to play frost elentals, they think ice is beautiful. Malygos’ main business is arcane, but he is also very good at playing frost elentals.
Now Duke’s magic network’s counterattack made him feel very uncomfortable - Duke cut off the supply of frost elents to his old nest, the Magic Nexus.
Originally Malygos thought this was impossible.
The facts before him deeply stimulated him.
Duke’s virtual image was projected on a desolate island off the western coast of the Borean Tundra. Next to Duke’s projection, stood a gigantic water elent.
"Thank you for your hard work, Duke Hydrasis."
"My most loyal friend. It is an honor for us, the Hydrashia Water Elentals, to serve you." This is the water elental clan’s way of repaying a favor.
Duke led the mortal heroes to kill the clone of Ragnaros, the Firelord, and cooperated with the Hydraxian water elentals to flood the entire Molten Core.
The Hydrashia water elent has always kept this kindness in mind.
