24. Sebellian the Betrayer
Deathwing wasn't once called Deathwing, in fact, it didn't sound like a good name and didn't fit the commander of the Black Dragon Legion, he used to be called Netsario, and he was a very prestigious presence in the original Dragon Legion.
Mainly because when he was fighting against the giant beast Galakron, Deathwing appeared as a brave warrior, and among the five dragon kings, he was the only one who dared to confront Galakron, who was a hundred times his size, and he was not left behind.
This shows the strength of Deathwing's body, and when Tyr later recommended the dragons to the Titans as the World Warden, Nesario was also favored by the Pantheon's Earth Shaper, Kazgros, and through the Shaper Azadas, he was given authority over the land of Azeroth.
After this, the era of the Guardians has come to an end, and the age of the Dragons has arrived.
However, even the wisest of the time kings, Nozdom, could not say exactly when his brother Nesario's fall began, but the only thing that was certain was that Nesario had maintained the balance of the earth for a long time, and in the darkness deep underground, he heard voices that should not be heard.
And it doesn't seem to be an ancient god yet.
Corrupting a guardian dragon while imprisoned is far from something that an Old God can do, so in the eyes of those who know that history, the fall of Nesario and the appearance of Deathwing are likely to be the beginning of all the rebellion and dark plans that the three Old Gods have joined forces to carry out.
In short, the power of the land from Kazgros makes Deathwing the most powerful frontal attack of the guardian dragons, and makes him the easiest to reach the darkness.
As the Red Dragon Queen Alexstasa often says,
"It's a blessing for us, it's a responsibility for us. ”
But apparently, the fallen Nesario betrayed his duty, and for tens of thousands of years after receiving the blessing, he was quietly transformed by these dark forces, perhaps from the initial resistance, to the silence that followed, to the final compromise, the old gods are such creatures, and the most terrifying thing about their power is that even if you refuse, in the end, you will be subtly transformed.
In the end, the Battle of the Ancients arrived, the demons attacked Azeroth, and the Guardian Dragons were hidden as the guardians, and the most powerful combat force on the Order side, the Guardian Dragon Legion, finally joined the battlefield at the request of the Night Elf commander Garrod Shadowsong, but what the other dragon kings did not expect was that their brother was no longer the original Nesario.
The Demon Legion is so powerful that it can't resist this excessive attack by relying on Azeroth alone, so Nesario proposes to make an artifact called the Dragon's Soul, which is said to contain the power of the guardian dragon and release it at once, which is enough to destroy the Burning Legion's largest portal, the super-large portal built next to the Well of Eternity.
The dragon kings did not suspect him, so they poured their own origin power into it, and it was a golden disc that looked like an artifact, but they were tricked.
Nesario didn't inject his power into it, he played a trick, he manipulated it to kill a huge number of demons and elves, but in the end he manipulated the dragon's soul and swept the destructive pillar of light towards the unprepared Blue Dragon Legion, and the other guardian dragon legions suffered heavy losses, and the Blue Dragon Legion of the old blue dragon Malygos was on the verge of extinction in that battle.
Nesario didn't pour his power into the Dragon's Soul at all, making it impossible for the other guardian dragons to harm him, and he led the army of black dragons, also corrupted by their bloodline, to slaughter the other dragons.
At that moment, Nesario died and Deathwing was born...
The dragons, who were unable to win, went into hiding under the leadership of their leader, and the mortal heroes of the Furious Wind brothers (Malfurion and Illidan Fury) stole the Dragon's Soul from Deathwing through the Emerald Dream Walk at a considerable cost, causing Deathwing to fail.
After the battle, the four dragon kings tried to destroy it, but because it was infused with their origin power, it couldn't be destroyed, so they teamed up to cast a spell to make the dragon's soul, also known as the demon's soul, an artifact that could no longer be used by any other dragon, and then hid it.
But the dragon kings made a fatal mistake, their arrogance made them not even think that the dragon's soul would fall into the hands of other creatures, and those inferior creatures would not dare to provoke the mighty dragon army.
However, 10,000 years later, when the Orcs of Draenor attacked Azeroth, Zuluhid, the original chief of the Dragonmaw Orcs, was lured by Deathwing to find the artifact, and boldly used it to control the Red Dragon Queen Alexstasa, imprisoning her underground in Grimbaatar, and driving the Red Dragon to fight for the Orcs.
This is the first time that a noble creature has fallen into tragedy, but Archmage Ronin, who was still an apprentice at the time, was unexpectedly involved in a conspiracy when he went to investigate the news about Deathwing on the orders of the Dalaran mages.
In the end, when Ronin used Deathwing to tease him, the scales given to him completely destroyed the dragon's soul, and the imprisoned dragon king was restored to freedom, and Deathwing's undefeated golden body was shattered.
Everyone believed he was dead.
But actually... He didn't die, not only did he not die, but he also hid in the dark, planning a new conspiracy, of course, for a big boss of the level of Deathwing, the conspiracy that he spent 20 years planning was definitely not a small fight to seize one or two human countries.
In fact, what he studied was a power that could completely destroy Azeroth... A forbidden power!
"Oh, it's almost ripe..."
In an extremely hidden crypt hidden near Ogrera, Nesario carefully used his magic to remove a strange dragon egg with purple light from a magic circle, the shell of this dragon egg is like frosted crystal, opaque, but through the purple light, you can see a small black creature moving, like a small snake with wings.
This is the result of his 20 years of research, for it, Deathwing has personally destroyed an unknown number of dragon eggs, there are black dragons, and there are other dragons, the original embryo of this dragon egg comes from his sister Alexstasa, it is a red dragon egg with strong vitality, and only the red dragon born with life energy can withstand huge energy injection and distortion during the embryonic stage.
And the human form of Deathwing is actually very similar to the human form of Saabmaine and Nefarion, probably one of the inheritances of the father and son, he wears a black robe, a tall body, black hair, the only difference is that his chin, which is not skin, but a steel chin made of dark red steel, looks like a dragon's palate.
When he was manipulating the dragon's soul, Deathwing was flooded with a large amount of energy, and he greedily absorbed them, causing its body to be torn apart, and the transformation of his body by the old gods turned those bodies that should have been bloody and flesh into crimson tendrils like burning blood and flesh, strange and evil.
Deathwing ordered his goblins to forge him a pair of steel dragon armor that encased his torn body from head to end, and this steel dragon palate was a testament to this essentia armor.
This is a dragon that is incomparably evil from the outside to the inside, and his existence is the greatest malice to the world.
The old gods gave Deathwing a strange corrosion, not to make him worship Chaos as his master, in fact, even the old gods who joined forces could not do this, instead, they showed Deathwing a picture of Azeroth's future desperate hell, so that the dragon was convinced of it.
So he had to "save" it in his own way, or destroy it with his own hands.
He called it "Twilight Hour", maybe the name of some disgusting old god, but he was convinced that in order to do so, he needed a monster that could instantly devour the present world and create the Twilight Realm.
Now, the purple dragon eggs he had carefully placed in a pile of the purest Episis crystals were the prototype of the monster, which he called the Twilight Dragon.
And Deathwing's crimson, magma-like eyes, looking at it with the same eye as a treasure, muttered to himself,
"Nefaryan... Onexia... Cinesstra, they're worthless, they're just a bunch of mortals controlled by weak emotions and minds, but you... You're different... I know, you're on a mission to destroy the world, and you're going to be the final death knell of that sad world, I know... You will be my most perfect creation!"
"The Twilight Judgment will come, and the sad world will be..."
"Bang!"
Before Deathwing could finish speaking, a colossus from the ground made him jerk his head up, and as he approached, the entire crypt began to shake from a distance, as if a savage beast was shaking the ground wildly underground.
Nesario's face changed, the Twilight Dragon's hatching was in its final stages, and it was impossible for him to allow his 20 years of preparation to turn to ashes, and Deathwing lifted down with one hand, and the violently shaking earth returned to stability almost instantly.
Although the authority of Azeroth's land cannot manipulate the land of Draenor, the rank and authority are placed there, and this land will not go against the will of Deathwing.
But just from the contact just now, he clearly judged that under the earth, there was another violent will, roaring, roaring, that was the anger of the earth itself, and it was the madness of a powerful creature that could not be violated.
That voice was familiar to him... Gruul, King of Blade Mountain.
Deathwing's figure flashed and appeared beyond the deep crypt, only to be confronted by the scene where his wasteful son, Sebelian, was smashed from the sky by Gruul with a boulder.
Before Deathwing could make a sound, he heard Cyberrian's wail that resounded through the sky,
"Father, according to your instructions, we have killed all the sons of Grull, help! Father, kill him, kill this damned Goron, I have led it into a trap, kill him!"
Grull was about to take advantage of the victory and use his fists to kill the black dragon falling in front of him, but when he heard the word trap, he suddenly hesitated for a moment, but at this moment, the ground of the entire Orgrella Heights quickly cracked, as if some kind of barrier had been forcibly pulled up.
The next moment, golden lightning gathered from all directions, trapping Gruul, Deathwing, and Sebellian in a birdcage-shaped space.
"I'm going to kill..."
"Buzz!"
Baron Saabmayne, who turned into a human form and fell to the ground, pulled a bloody grim smile from the corner of his mouth, the teleportation stone in his hand was crushed at this moment, and his stiffness disappeared in place, and there, his voice still remained,
"Kill this disgusting beast, father! I'll go and slaughter the remaining Gorons, and I'll slaughter them all according to your orders!
"Don't worry about me, father! Gruul is dead after all, this beast does not deserve to share a land with the proud black dragon, didn't you teach us?"
"Whew!"
Deathwing's explanation is pale, not to mention, a haughty guy like him doesn't bother to explain, he has no intention of retreating, because behind him, it's the lethal weapon he's been researching for 20 years to destroy Azeroth, and if he leaves, the angry Grull will destroy everything here.
At this moment, Nesario knew that he had been calculated... Damned Sebellian, this damned traitor, how dare he betray him, and why did he dare to betray him!!
Gruul's heavy fist smashed into Deathwing from both directions, and the Black Dragon King, who had been furious to the extreme by the humiliation of betrayal, looked at the falling fist, a dark red flame stood out from his body, then a second, a third, and in an instant, the dark red flame was all over his body, and in an instant, a scorching flame filled everything around him.
"Give me... Fuck off!"
"My name is Deathwing, the destroyer of destiny, the end of all things, unstoppable, irreversible, I... i.e. cataclysm!"
"Boom !!"
