That night, after most of the chaos for most of the day, the palace of the King of Theramo finally returned to its former tranquility, but the palace, which had been infected by the death of more than 300 people, was still filled with ominous light in the dim light, and it was not until the priests purified the entire palace with holy light that the peaceful atmosphere returned here. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info

Daline, Kalia, Dick, Gianna, Erigor, Liadrin, and other dignitaries, all the leaders of the entire Theramore, gathered in the meeting hall of the palace.

In the clearing in front of them, the corpse of a purple fat bug that had lost its life was placed there, but even if it was dead, this corpse was still full of weirdness, at least Princess Kalia forced her eyes not to focus on that thing, and little Anduin did not have the courage before, but quietly hid in Kalia's arms.

Apparently, the kid was also frightened.

Nasha, the leader of the watchers, was still wearing their dark green cloak and armor that had not changed for thousands of years, and she hadn't even taken off the owl helmet on her face, but at the moment, no one paid attention to this, and everyone sat quietly on the sidelines, listening to Nasha, who had personally experienced the last quicksand battle, explain the origin of these strange bugs.

"This creature... We call them Chila worms!"

Nasha held a dagger in her hand and gently pointed at the remains of the worker in her hand, "But in reality they call themselves 'Yaqui Zerg'!"

"Self-proclaimed?"

Dai Lin let out a puzzled voice, "You mean, these bugs can still talk? I've seen talking lobsters and fishmen, and even sea giants can communicate after they've eaten their fill, but bugs..."

Nasha nodded, although she had been living in Theramore for nearly 2 years, she was still not used to human etiquette, and the generous Kalia allowed all watchers to live according to their own habits, so Nasha did not use honorifics, but said bluntly,

"Yes, the kings of men, they not only speak, but also have their own set of civilizations, which have existed even longer than Cadore... Older than the Elder Elven Empire!Before Kadore appeared, the Yakee Zerg Empire and the Dark Troll Empire had been at war without a winner, but they were eventually defeated by the converging Ancient Troll Empire of Zandalar and forced to split into three tribes and migrate in three directions, which happened 14,000 years ago. ”

"Hmm..."

Little Anduin has grown his mouth, and he is not old enough for him to discern what 14,000 years means, but he still knows that human history is only 3,000 years, that is, these insects lived in this world 10,000 years before the birth of humans.

Nasha ignored the surprise of the humans, for her, 10,000 years was just an ordinary and boring light and shadow of a long life, since the War of the Ancients, she had not been surprised for a long time, which was why she chose to stay in Theramore, not only because of Mawi Mawi's orders, but also because she wanted to see the changes in this already strange world.

"We were dealing with the Yaki Bugs 1,000 years ago, when the Great Druids were ordered to take a team of druids and soldiers on a survey of the Great Desert of Silysus, the southernmost part of the Cadore's Dominion, where the Druids would be stationed if there was any hope of governance. ”

Nasha's voice was still hoarse and low, but her description unfolded a gorgeous and strange picture in front of everyone, a group of druids were struggling to march in the endless yellow sand, and where they could not see, in those shadows, crazy and evil bugs were quietly waiting for their prey to enter the net.

"The Deerhelm's exploration plan went well, and they even established the village of Nanfeng there, and in those decades, many of the people who were tired of seeing the forest scenery would choose to go to Silisus to see a different scenery, that quiet desert, which is said to be the most beautiful place in the world, but everything went bad when the son of the deerhelm, the brave warrior Valastan, strayed into the ruins of the strange temple located in the deepest part of the desert because of the wind and sand. ”

"Wormmen... Yes, these bugs we saw were nothing more than the lowest servants of the Yaki Empire, and above them there was the existence of wormmen, which were twisted and powerful creatures, and Valasan was captured, and the worms rushed out of the ruins, and it was only then that the deer helmet found that under this beautiful desert, buried... It's death!"

"The insects surrounded Nanfeng Village, but under the heroic battle of Deer Helm, most of the compatriots were saved, but Deer Helmet lost the last of their relatives because of it. ”

Nasha's voice became mournful, "The black Worm General, who tore Valastan to pieces in front of the Deer Helmet, and even gave his soul to their evil god, I was there at the time, and I witnessed it with my own eyes, it was a true tragedy. ”

"The deer helmet was on the side of the people, but because of this, he lost his last hope. ”

"The Great Druid attacked the wormmen with the same angry soldiers as if he had gone mad, and that was the first time they had been repulsed! As Malfurion arrived with reinforcements, the deerhelm held the remains of Valastan and knelt alone in the blood-soaked sand, and even the news of the dragons appearing and joining the battle could not restore his broken heart. ”

"That was the last time I remember the dragon appearing in the world. ”

The Warden shrugged his shoulders, "You may not be able to imagine the original picture, the invincible dragon was so vulnerable to the armed golems driven by the wormmen, and from the beginning to the end of that battle, at least nearly thirty dragons fell, and several noble dragons were captured by the wormmen and sent into the evil god kingdom that rose from the bottom of the desert. ”

"At the last moment, it was the dragon kings who appeared with more dragons, and all the soldiers of Cadore were concentrated in that yellow sand, that drove the insect people back to their caves with heavy casualties! ”

But when the dragon handed the Scepter of Quicksand to the Grand Druid Deer Helm, the desperate Deer Helm slammed the artifact to the ground, then gave up everything he had and became a lone traveler, the artifact shattered into four pieces, and was finally taken away by the dragons. ”

Nasha held out her finger and pointed at Dick,

"I don't know where you got that red crystal, but Dick, it's a quarter of the quicksand scepter that the dragons used to seal the Wall of Beetles. ”

The paladin placed the red shard in the palm of his hand, and the thing looked like a clumsy piece of broken glass, but on the surface, there was no trace of artifact style at all, but Dick knew that the crystal that was held by Nefarian was definitely not ordinary.

In fact, this was also the first time that the "light of identification" in Dick's eyes had a problem, no matter how he looked at it, there were always only four big words on this crystal.

"Unknown Oddities"

Dick knew what it was, and in the game, he was a first-hand participant in that epic battle, and he knew exactly where the four pieces of the Scepter of Quicksand were located, and he had wanted to collect them in advance, and even asked Illanicus about the piece held by the Green Dragon.

The hero dragon just told it,

"That's a dangerous thing, and you'd better not pursue the secret behind it! ”

Dick knew that the time had not yet come.

After reversing a third of the world, the paladin has already understood a truth, the occurrence of an event must have the conditions for the early conflict and the advancement of things, and the same is true of history, just like he used Akando to stabilize the crumbling Quel'Thalas, and now Kael'thas is bent on recovering the country, and it is impossible to have any intersection with Thrall.

This eliminates the possibility of the proud High Elves joining the Horde's side.

Therefore, only the problem solved from the root will be regarded as reversing the fate of the world, which is why such a huge historical node of Mount Hyjal has obtained a reversal degree similar to the disaster of the Black Dragon, in that scene, Dick has not been able to change anything from the level of factors at all, he is just a bystander who participates in it.

Just like Dick waited for two years before waiting for the beetle plague, he pressed his mind and quietly prepared in his own way, he was like an uncertain factor outside of history, he didn't even know that once he entered Silissus in advance, would Cthun's attention lead to the early outbreak of the beetle war.

In another sentence, the older the rivers and lakes, the less courageous they are.

Now he is not the sheriff who had nothing at the beginning, so whether it is thinking about problems or doing things, Dick needs to think too much.

However, he can be sure of at least one thing, that is, as long as the quicksand scepter is not restored, the wall of beetles will be able to hold out in a short time, that is to say, the worms have not been able to break through the defenses, and the most likely reason is that this attack of the hive crystal is because the integrity of the seal has been partially destroyed in the long time.

Nasha's narration is also accompanied by Dick's reflections, and enters the final epilogue,

"The Yaki Zerg, that is, the Qila insects, are actually not without weaknesses, first of all, for a large number of worker insects, their magic resistance is very weak, and secondly, they are very stupid, they have no ability to think for themselves, and can only passively accept orders from high-level worker worms or brain worms!"

"This is a brain worm!"

Nasha pointed to the large, fat, purple carapace, four legs, and two long, tentacles that looked like an enlarged version of a petunia oddity.

"The commanders of the worker insects, their abilities are strange, some will spew acid, some are extremely powerful, some can even release simple magic, their mental power is very strong, and very smart, they have the ability to lay eggs, they can command nearly 10,000 worker insects, so if you want to fight the insect of Qila, the first thing you must do is to find the brain worm and kill it! Otherwise, you will not be able to live to see the victory. ”

"I'm more concerned about the crystals... Nasha, Dick said that at least three crystals had fallen into the swamp of Theramore, and they..."

Kalia's brows were furrowed, and the eldest princess couldn't help but rub the corners of her eyebrows with her fingers, hearing her question, the watchman was silent for a moment, and then sighed extremely rarely.

"Your Highness Kalia, although I hate to admit it, I'm afraid we're in real trouble. Those crystals also appeared at the end of the quicksand battle that year, they were the weapons used by the insects for long-range combat, one crystal can even clear a large area, and now together with the three crystals in the swamp, the insects have projected 5 crystals into this place, obviously, they are also looking for the quicksand scepter, and they are very determined!"

The watchman's finger moved,

"Prepare for war, friends, the Zerg will not reason with us, defeat them or die, there is no third option. ”

As soon as Nasha finished speaking, a swarthy storm raven flapped its wings and landed in front of the palace, transforming into a female night elf druid in eagle-shaped leather armor in the fog of Transfiguration, and led by the guards, strode into the chamber and handed a scroll of animal skins to Kalia.

"Lady Lord of Theramore, the Council of Cenarion invites you to a joint meeting of the Zermen who pull it, and in 1 day, I will build a portal to the Moonlit Glade for you!

The eldest princess put the scroll in her hand, she glanced at Dick, and asked softly,

"What forces did the druids invite?"

There was a heaviness in the eyes of the female druid,

"We invited everyone we could. ”
