This is the most famous one-handed sword in World of Warcraft, the Wind Sword.

There are tens of millions of players in World of Warcraft, and there are countless players who have owned Wind Sword in the 18 years since the game has been in operation. When it comes to the classic server, it is even worse.

Looking at the 18-year game history of World of Warcraft, there are not many players who can be recorded in the history of the game. Among them, the first wind sword owner "Kyushu Problem Young Master" is definitely on the list.

During the open beta of World of Warcraft, Blizzard's original design was for a certain monster to directly drop the Wind Sword's mission prop "Bottle of Resurrection", allowing players to directly summon the Wind Prince to obtain the Wind Sword.

When it came to official operation, Blizzard felt that legendary weapons that were too easy to obtain were not good weapons. They modified the way to obtain the Wind Sword, added more difficult pre-missions, and added the Wind Sword mission opening props to the drops of Gall and Baron Geddon. , there is the Wind Sword mission process that players are familiar with.

In the normal Wind Sword mission process, you need to obtain a "Wind Chaser's Imprisoned Skull" before you can receive the follow-up mission from the NPC "Demition" in the Crystal Valley of Silithus and obtain the "Bottle of Resurrection".

Use the Bottle of Resurrection to receive the subsequent "Wind Chaser Sunderland" mission. The task requires players to gather a pair of Imprisoned Skulls of the Wind Chaser, the Essence of the Flame King, and 10 Originium Bars to summon the Wind Prince.

Kill the Wind Prince to get the "Wind-kissed Blade", and use the materials previously given to Demition to awaken the Wind-kissed Blade into the wind sword "Thunder's Wrath, Wind Chaser's Blessed Sword".

However, the Originium Ingot can only be obtained in the second stage of the team copy Blackwing Lair, so even if you get two Wind Chaser Imprisoned Skulls in the first stage, you still cannot complete the task and get the Wind Sword.

The problem is that the first wind sword player in the game, Young Master Jiuzhou, does not need to collect a pair of Wind Chaser's Imprisoned Skulls, the essence of the Flame King, or 10 source matter ingots for his wind sword. He can directly use the bottle of resurrection to create his wind sword. The Wind Prince "Wind Chaser Sunderland" is summoned. Kill the Wind Prince and directly pick up the complete Wind Sword.

The reason is very simple. His Resurrection Bottle was obtained before the Wind Sword mission was modified. In other words, this Resurrection Bottle was a product before the mission was modified. It slipped through the net and was not modified.

As for how the young master of Kyushu Problem obtained the Bottle of Resurrection, no one knows. There are more theories that he dropped it accidentally while doing quests and killing monsters in Silithus. In fact, even he himself couldn't figure out how to get it, so he got the first wind sword in the game just like this.

The official will never admit its mistakes, and it is always the players who are wrong, so it is determined that the wind sword of the Kyushu problem young master is a bug product. However, in the early stages of the game's operation, the official did not dare to directly recycle it for the sake of the game's reputation, so they used a method that did not require Bilian and restricted the use of the wind sword in the hands of the problematic young master from Kyushu.

The official didn't want to show any shame and raised the equipment level of this wind sword to level 100.

The problematic young master from Kyushu became the only player in the game with a level 100 wind sword.

"It's a pity that he didn't make it to level 100 after all."

Wen Xin felt very sorry for this. After all, the Jiuzhou problem young master retired before reaching level 100. The level 100 wind sword became history: "If he can persist for another 9 years, he will be able to equip this wind sword."

It was officially launched in 2005, and the 100-level version was only opened in 2014. In 9 years, the official successfully forced the young master with the problem of Kyushu out of the game. Do you know how I got here in the past 9 years? Shit official!

"Could it be that the bottle of resurrection given to Tangyuan by the system is the most primitive bottle of resurrection that can directly summon the Prince of Wind to explode the wind sword?"

Wen Xin felt that it was very possible. Only in this way could he explain the purpose of the system giving him the bottle of resurrection.

If the bottle of resurrection given by the system still requires a pair of Imprisoned Skulls of the Wind Chaser, the Essence of the Flame King, and 10 Origin Ingots after accepting the mission, then the bottle of resurrection given by the system is meaningless, and giving it is equivalent to not giving it at all. .

To sum up, the most likely result is that the bottle of resurrection given by the system can skip the task of the wind sword and directly summon the wind prince. Killing the wind prince can explode the wind sword.

Spicy Tangyuan shared the bottle of resurrection in the guild chat channel, causing the guild to explode.

Although everyone does not know the purpose of the bottle of resurrection, they know the meaning of the legend.

"Grass holding, a legendary quality mission prop. After completing the mission, the reward won't be legendary equipment, right?"

"Envy has torn me apart, jealousy has changed me beyond recognition. Why haven't I encountered a void bug? I also want the legendary mission props!"

"No, I can't stand it anymore. Getting the legendary props in glutinous rice balls makes me feel more uncomfortable than my wife going to play mahjong all night at Brother Wang's house next door."

In addition to envy, everyone can only be jealous, why is it not you who encounters the void bug?

Spicy Tangyuan was very happy and proud, and he behaved well after getting a bargain: "It's a small scene, it's just a legendary quality mission prop, everyone should calm down."

Everyone wants to beat him to death and let you pretend, otherwise you will be struck by lightning sooner or later.

Wen Xin asked: "Tangyuan, have you used the bottle of resurrection to accept the mission?"

Don't think about tricking the bottle of resurrection. This bottle of resurrection is a system compensation. It is a soul-bound object and cannot be traded. It can only be used by one person.

Spicy Tangyuan said: "Okay, I received a mission that asked me to go to Silithus Crystal Valley and find an NPC named Demition. Brother, do you know what good things will be rewarded in this mission?"

Wen Xin asked Spicy Tangyuan to repeat the task description in detail.

Spicy glutinous rice balls are recited word for word.

After the retelling, Wen Xin was certain that this was the original version of the Bottle of Resurrection, because the task that Spicy Tangyuan took was different from the normal version of the Wind Sword task and was an independent task.

"This system can handle it."

Wen Xin couldn't help but sigh with emotion: "The operating system of the holographic World of Warcraft is going to be authentic, and is it going to make Tangyuan the problem-ridden young master of Kyushu in this dimension? Well, there is indeed something wrong with Tangyuan. In the late stage of secondary disease, there is no cure. Saveable.”

Wen Xin suddenly made a bold guess.

"The wind sword that is the final reward of the Resurrection Bottle doesn't require level 100 to equip it, right?"

It's very possible, no matter which plane it is in, the game official is a virtue.

Wen Xin has only one official comment on the game: bullshit!

"Tangyuan, what do you think of the sword thief?"

Wen Xin did not directly pick Ming Fengjian.

Spicy glutinous rice balls have always used daggers, fearing that daggers are his religion.

"Brother, I am a dagger thief, I don't know how to use a sword."

Wen Xin expected the answer from Spicy Tangyuan.

Wen Xin expressed doubts about his integrity: "If I were to give you a very awesome one-handed sword of legendary quality, would you give up the dagger and use the sword instead?"

Spicy glutinous rice balls are "strong-willed" and have a clear love for daggers: "What kind of rubbish daggers? I never like to play with daggers. The sword is so handsome. It has good looks and high output. I like to play with swords the most."

If it is a legendary sword, any dagger can be thrown.

This is the ethics of spicy glutinous rice balls, there is no ethics at all.

Everyone saw his shamelessness and unified in the guild channel: "Spit, glutinous rice balls, it's you who are shameless."

Wen Xin smiled. There is no so-called belief in weapons when playing games. What you pursue is not high output and good looks. In the 1960s, not all dagger thieves switched to swords in the 1970s. In the 1980s, not all sword thieves Play with daggers instead.

The so-called weapon belief is based on the premise that the weapon is suitable for the version. When the weapon is not suitable for the version, you must change it to a weapon that conforms to the version. Don't go against the version.

Both daggers and swords can be used in the current version, so whether to use a sword or a dagger depends on the weapon you obtain.

If Wen Xin were to add dog teeth to his destruction, he would directly abandon the combat sword and replace it with a dagger thief.

In the same way, give Spicy Tangyuan a one-handed sword of legendary quality and a rubbish dagger of fine quality. I never play with daggers, so just disassemble them and don’t be an eyesore.

Zhan perhaps asked everyone's doubts: "President, the reward for Tang Yuan's Resurrection Bottle mission is a legendary quality one-handed sword?"

Wen Xin nodded: "I said before that Gard and Baron Geddon will drop legendary quality equipment. In fact, it is not equipment, but mission items. The final reward of the mission is the final reward of the Bottle of Resurrection mission, and the reward is a 1960s-era The most powerful one-handed sword, the Fury of Thunder, the Blessed Sword of the Wind Chaser.”

"Is he so strong?" Zhan Maybe's eyes widened.

Wen Xin said: "It's more powerful than you think. It won't be a problem to use it until level 70. It's just powerful. It's so good-looking, handsome and capable of fighting."

Not to mention that the Temple of Ahn'Qiraj and Naxxramas have more powerful weapons, Wen Xin believes that eight out of ten Wind Sword players will not be willing to replace the Wind Sword. In the early 1970s, there were still a lot of people carrying Wind Sword. If they didn't bring Wind Sword to a level 70 group, they would be disliked. They could bring another big version.

Zhan Maybe: "Tangyuan, if this weapon can be traded, sell it to me and I will give you my sister."

He exchanged his sister for a sword, and Zhan Maybe's moral integrity was shattered to pieces like spicy glutinous rice balls.

Spicy glutinous rice balls hehehe: "How dare you sell it, uncle? Only high-end professional players like you are qualified to use the legendary quality one-handed sword. It must be given as a betrothal gift."

Zhan Xu: "Good brother-in-law."

Fortunately, Jingye Siyu has a good temper. If it had been the autumn wind and fallen leaves, Zhan might have been 30 years old now.

Zhan Maybe's act of selling out his sister made everyone's minds start to move. If the legendary weapon rewarded by the mission can really be traded, should they spend money to buy it? Others may not sell it, but Spicy Tangyuan’s personality will definitely sell it.

The character of Spicy Tangyuan is that as long as the price is right, he can sell it, let alone a mere weapon.

There is only one reason why he refuses to sell spicy glutinous rice balls. The price is not high enough.

Wen Xin, who is currently far ahead in progress and has no pressure to compete for the first kill, does not mind adding fun to everyone's game: "I have a suggestion. Let's go to Silithus to help Tangyuan complete tasks and witness the birth of a legendary weapon with our own eyes. .”

"I have to go. Legendary Weapon. I will regret it if I go. I will regret it even more if I don't go."

"Let's go to Silithus together. I don't want to see the glutinous rice balls put into cups. The bricks are ready. If he puts them into cups, I will give him a brick."

"Holding the sun and moon in my hands to pick up the stars, there is no one like me in the world. I am the same if I am not born by heaven. The World of Warcraft is like eternal night. Oh my God, why was it not me who fell into the void bug? I don't accept it!"

Everyone agreed to go to Silithus, help Spicy Glutinous Rice Balls with tasks, and witness the birth of a legendary weapon with their own eyes.

Transition to Silithus.

Silithus Crystal Valley, in the upper left corner of the map, is full of violent elements.

Currently, Silithus is still an unpopular map, and only some players in Crystal Valley are farming elemental materials.

Wen Xin took all the guild members to leave Molten Core and came to Silithus.

Because of the battle for Fire Feather Mountain, Un'Goro Crater has become a popular map. The Commercial Guild has set up a flight from Marshall Camp, and the Commercial Guild flight directly reaches Un'Goro Crater, allowing Wen Xin and his party to quickly reach Silithus.

Come to the Crystal Valley of Silithus and find Demition hidden deep in the Crystal Valley.

Only Spicy Tangyuan with a mission can talk to him.

After a while, Spicy Tangyuan said: "This guy asked us to use the bottle of resurrection to summon Wind Chaser Sunderland and defeat Wind Chaser Sunderland."

Demition is the servant of the Prince of Wind. This guy is extremely rebellious. In the name of rescuing the player, he asks the player to kill the Prince of Wind in order to get rid of the shackles of the Prince of Wind.

"Wind Chaser Sunderland, will he be a big boss?"

"I'm afraid of hair. There are so many of us. It's best to be a big boss and explode a few more legendary equipment."

"MD, it's okay if you don't tell me, but I feel uncomfortable when I mention it. Tangyuan is going to have a legendary weapon, and I'm heartbroken."

The most distressing part is definitely the boat setting sail. From now on, I am afraid that spicy glutinous rice balls will be served to my face every day.

Wen Xin put Spicy Tangyuan into the team. If Prince Feng really explodes the complete Wind Sword, if it can really be traded, the main players in the group will definitely go to buy Spicy Tangyuan.

In reality, Spicy Tangyuan is not a rich second generation. A legendary weapon can make him rich overnight. He cares more about reality than the vanity of games. Based on Wen Xin's understanding of him, as long as someone offers a price that satisfies him, he will definitely sell the wind sword.

With much anticipation, Spicy Glutinous Rice Balls used the bottle of resurrection to summon the Prince of Wind "Wind Chaser Sunderland".

Demition on the side moved and released the summoning magic: "Even in my dream, I never thought that there would be such a day. Look, mortal, witness a power older than this world, witness this person who has faced King of Titans and Gods.”

This is Demition's line when summoning Sunderland, the Wind Chaser, in the Wind Sword mission.

He spoke like a mortal in one mouthful, which fully demonstrated the arrogance of the NPC, which made Wen Xin very unhappy.

"Resuscitate, my master, throw off your shackles and restraints, revive!"

Demition continued to summon Wind Chaser Sunderland. The wind prince's father was the Wind Rider Al'Akir. The Wind Prince had fought against the Dark Titan Sargeras twice. Although he lost in the end, he was still awesome. Than exists.

Unfortunately, today he will be defeated by a group of footmen.

Demition's summoning ceremony ends.

Sunderland, the Prince of Winds, Wind Chaser, is summoned.

The weapon in Prince Wind's hand is one of the most beautiful one-handed swords in World of Warcraft, "Thunder's Wrath, Wind Chaser's Blessing Sword".

Prince Feng is huge, and the wind sword in his hand is also huge. Have you ever seen a 40-meter sword? There is a 40-meter wind sword in front of you.

Spicy Tangyuan was extremely excited: "Brother, is this the weapon in the boss's hand?"

Wen Xin nodded: "Yes, it's the weapon in his hand."

"MD, how can you be so cool? When I think that Tangyuan will soon have a magical weapon, I am so envious that I am separated from the wall."

"No, Tangyuan, if you want us to help you kill the boss, you have to pay more."

"If you can't stand it anymore, Tangyuan takes the magic weapon, you might as well just kill me, it's uncomfortable for Shiitake."

If Feng Jian wasn't good-looking, everyone wouldn't be so excited. Now seeing Feng Jian's good looks, it's hard not to be excited.

Excited as he was, he still had to help Spicy Tangyuan kill Prince Feng.

Wen Xin estimated that only spicy glutinous rice balls had the right to pick it up. Only in this way could the young master with problems in Kyushu get the wind sword. Otherwise, his wind sword would definitely be taken away by the group leader.

Prince Feng raised the wind sword in his hand: "A group of mortals, feel the power of the wind!"

Wen Xin couldn't bear the mortal peat: "Destroy him for me. Sargeras' men are defeated, and He Bilian is here to show off."

Desert Guyan stepped forward to pick up the monster.

Prince Feng is just a mission boss. A group of players is enough to kill him easily, let alone 56 people.

He didn't last long. Prince Wind, who had faced Sargeras twice in the past, fell down and dropped the wind sword in his hand.

"This guy is such a good guy, and he died before I even exerted my strength?"

Spicy glutinous rice balls happily went up to pick it up and dropped it: "I went to see what it was."

Only he has the task, others can't see the Wind Prince drop it, they can only pick it up by him.

"Wind-kissed Blade, what is it?"

Spicy Tangyuan posted the drop of Prince Feng: "It seems to be another mission item."

[Wind-kissed Blade (Legendary): This item will trigger a quest item]

Only Wen Xin knows the story of Prince Feng.

Sixteen years before the War of Overlord, the Dark Titan Sargeras raised his troops to attack the Wind Realm. After several days of fierce fighting, Sunderland finally drove Sargeras back. But Sargeras did not give up. A year later, Sargeras had a head-on confrontation with Prince Sunderland, causing Prince Sunderland's eyes to be damaged. Prince Sunderland deeply loves the wind-kissed elf Ahir, the daughter of the leader Ardorion, but Prince Sunderland knows that he will be blind soon, and Ahir hopes that Sunderland can leave with her. During this war, Sunderland knew that he could not bring her happiness and did not show love to Aichir.

The Wind-kissed Blade is the witness of Prince Wind's love for the wind-kissed elf Ayl, and his regret for his love for Ayl.

In fact, from this background story, we can see how powerful Prince Wind is. At least he has defeated Sargeras once. With this record alone, he is enough to defeat 99% of the NPCs in the background story of World of Warcraft.

Wen Xin said to Spicy Rice Balls: "Just accept the mission."

The Wind Prince did not drop the Wind Sword directly, but the Wind Kissed Blade, which shattered the idea that the Wind Sword could be traded.

Sure enough, with the compensation given by the system, only Spicy Tangyuan can obtain the Wind Sword. It is impossible to leave a bug so that others can obtain the Wind Sword.

Spicy Tangyuan used the Wind Kissed Blade and received a new mission: "Oh, we're looking for Demition again."

Demition was at the side and went to talk to him.

Wen Xin and his party defeated Prince Feng, scaring Demition so much that he did not dare to call himself a mortal again.

Demition:

"33 years before the War of the Lord, the Balrog Ragnaros recuperated underground and led his men to personally attack the Wind Realm. Because Prince Sunderland was too powerful, the Balrog's men Garr and Baron Geddon designed to restrain Sunderland Prince, Balrog sneaked up from behind to kill Xander and absorbed the essence of Prince Sunderland.”

"If you want to awaken the Wind-kissed Blade, you must recapture the essence of Prince Sunderland and wash the Wind-kissed Blade with the prince's essence before it can become the Fury of Thunder, the blessed sword of the Wind Chaser."

Spicy glutinous rice dumplings task list updated.

"Brother, this guy asked me to go to the Molten Core and kill Ragnaros, the Fire Demon King."

Spicy Tangyuan scratched his head: "I remember you said that that big screw seems to be the tail king of Molten Core, right?"

Wen Xin can confirm that the mission line received through Spicy Rice Balls is a simplified version of the Bottle of Resurrection mission line compensated by the system. Awakening the Wind-Kissed Blade does not require the Wind Chaser's Imprisoned Skull or 10 Origin Ingots. Just the essence of the Flame King.

In other words, it is the essence of the Wind Prince.

As long as Spicy Rice Ball participates in killing Ragnaros, you can pick up the essence of the Wind Prince from the boss, come back to Demition, awaken the Wind-Kissed Blade, and turn it into "Thunder's Wrath, the Blessed Sword of the Wind Chaser" ".

Wen Xin stared at the spicy glutinous rice balls for a while. Foolish people are lucky. This guy is destined to become the first owner of the wind sword in the game: "We are trying to get through the Molten Core and get the first kill in this CD. What do you think?" If you want a legendary weapon, you must prepare it carefully for me and don’t waste it.”

One thing that is good to be happy about is that the first wind sword in the game is destined to belong to the Four Seas Guild.

The first legendary quality equipment and the first wind sword both belonged to the guild, and Wen Xin was very pleased.

Spicy glutinous rice balls are rarely serious: "Brother, don't worry, I will not waste time on legendary weapons. I will work hard and work hard."

"no!"

Unable to bear it, the boat set sail and said: "Tangyuan, if you want legendary weapons, you have to pay more."

"Yes, you have to pay more."

"Oh, it's so uncomfortable. I feel like I can't beat the Molten Core without money."

When other people get legendary weapons, everyone won't feel so uncomfortable. Only Spicy Tangyuan gets legendary weapons, and everyone can't stand the excitement.

Spicy Tangyuan scratched his head and laughed: "When I get the legendary weapon, I will ask everyone to kill the chicken immediately."

Everyone said that this was not bad, and technicians No. 1 to 10 would all click on it when the time comes.

After reaching this point in the mission, if you want to get the Wind Sword, you must master all Molten Cores.

The plan couldn't keep up with the changes. The Wind Sword mission was delayed a lot of time, so Wen Xin had to adjust the plan. Today's goal was changed from meeting the No. 9 boss administrator Exotus to killing the Saffron Herald and completing the fire extinguishing mission. over.

Tomorrow's plan is definitely to defeat Boss 9, Administrator Exotus, and meet Ragnaros, the Firelord, the ultimate boss in Molten Core.

"Everyone take a plane to Morgan's Post as quickly as possible and return to the Molten Core as quickly as possible."

The Commercial Guild has set up a flight at Morgan's outpost to save time on map running.

Alliance players in the holographic World of Warcraft are more keen to gather in Stormwind City and go from the Burning Steppes to Blackrock Mountain rather than from the Searing Gorge. The existence of Kargas makes the Searing Canyon a way for the tribe to enter Blackstone Mountain. The separation of the two parties can effectively avoid some unnecessary conflicts.

Wen Xin adjusted the team members, replacing the eight substitute ranged members from the previous game against Shasilar and replacing the eight main melee members.

Like Baron Geddon, Shaslar also comes out with 2 sets of spare parts.

The sets are: the priest's T1 shoes "Boots of Prophecy" and the hunter's T1 gloves "Giant Stalker Gloves", of which the hunter's gloves are given to the substitute hunter.

The spare parts are: "Heavy Black Iron Ring" and "Witch Blade".

The heavy black iron ring was a tank ring and was given directly to Desert Guyyan according to the rules.

The Blade of Witchcraft was taken away by the substitute warlock Houyi Sheyue.

Everyone was happy when the substitutes got the equipment, which made the substitutes even more willing to substitute because they saw the opportunity to get the equipment.

Quickly return to Molten Core.

Land reclamation continues.
