2. The call of the world

Ahhh ”

Muladin, the diamond dwarf who slid swiftly down the desert rift, let out a ghost-crying wolf-like scream.

It's not that a warrior as powerful as him is afraid of this kind of rapid gliding movement, in fact, even if he falls from a height of thousands of meters, it will not make the brave diamond dwarf feel afraid, but the problem is that this suddenly cracked desert road is some... It's too long.

He's been sliding down for almost 20 minutes!

Judging by the scorching breath that has become here, it is definitely close to the depths of the earth's crust, even reaching the mantle layer.

This can never be a naturally formed hollow ...

Of course, it is also fortunate that Muradin is the only diamond dwarf in the world, and such a long and rapid friction with the sand can definitely grind a flesh and blood body into white bones, and even a body as solid as a rock will be completely ground up, and even so, Muradin can feel the temperature of his back and hips rising rapidly, so that a diamond creature like him can also feel the pressure.

In other words, he is probably the only one in the world who can go through this long road.

Muradin closed his eyes, not looking at the rapid passing in front of him, the rapid transformation of the picture made him feel a little dizzy, although after diamondization, he had lost the ability to eat and vomit, but the simple dizziness was also very uncomfortable.

"Bang"

Finally, in the midst of Muradin's dwarven curses, he was thrown out of the quicksand passage like a speeding cannonball, and after several turns in the air, the dwarf landed firmly on the ground, like the most powerful gymnast, and how could he get the highest score with that thousands of degrees of rotation in the air just now.

"My beard is on it!"

With the vigilance and posture of a warrior, Muradin held the Creation Scepter in his hand, and the power of the Pure Titan surged above the holy relic, making the ancient god's warhammer look like a bright light in the darkness.

And in the light of the light, the dwarf clearly saw that in front of him, there was a large artificially dug cave, and the stone walls around the cave were covered with all kinds of Titan scripts...

He had been in Ulduar for several years, and Muradin was well aware of the Titans' style of creation.

Apparently, this is a Titan relic that has not been discovered by anyone else, and even the Guardians of Ulduar have not mentioned it to him.

"You're finally here..."

A gentle, light voice, echoing in the dwarf's mind, was the first time she had become so clear, almost as if it were ringing in her ears, and the dwarf jerked his head, and the stone gate that had become one with the mountain in front of him was pushed open like an invisible hand, like the secret of the whole world, opening the door to Muradin.

"Who are you?"

But Muradin didn't immediately enter the gate, he held the war hammer in both hands, and looked around vigilantly, as a warrior who had fought against the ancient gods, Muradin knew that those servants of the void had many evil spells that could disturb people's hearts, and he could not let his guard down, even in an ancient Titan ruins, perhaps, there was an evil god sealed here.

"Come on, enter the Chamber of the Heart..."

"I'll explain it to you..."

The light voice did not answer Muradin's question, but summoned him again, and the diamond dwarf hesitated, and he stepped vigilantly into the passage behind the stone door, holding the hammer.

In this deep hall, the stone decoration was all replaced with metal, or the dark gold metal often used by the Titans, as if it had been molded as a whole, on the metal staircase in front of the dwarves, there was not a trace of assembly, and between those metals, there was also the same Titan energy pipe as Ulduar, and the dark blue power surged in it, like dark blue flowing water, and the attached light illuminated the entire secret room.

And what surprised the diamond dwarf the most was that in front of him, under the stairs, was a large Titan energy device, which was coupled by several layers of metal, like a cylindrical instrument deep into the ground, and around that instrument, through the glass-like shield under his feet, he could clearly see the gears and levers in motion, full of the ancient and sophisticated texture of Titan engineering.

Muradin's most pure Titan power has ever seen is surging in it, those faint blue halos outline a dreamlike light and shadow in the air, and also add a touch of solemnity and sacredness to this secret chamber of the heart, Muradin's just getting closer, he can feel the power of the bloodline, and the creation scepter in his hand is also accompanied by Mulardin's movement, slowly opening and closing, as if the true form of the Holy Hammer is about to be activated.

At the time of the Battle of Ulduar, Muradin restored the ancestor Yurell. Stone Heart's Creation Scepter, but he lacks the permission to use the Scepter, which is the permission of the Guardian, and even Rai can't give Muradin's high permission, so this recast holy relic can only be used as a weapon, and can no longer reproduce the divine power of the creation back then.

But now, Muradin could feel the Scepter of Creation in his hand being reactivated as he stood in the dark blue curtain of light.

"Rai said that only the Titans can activate its power."

The diamond dwarf used a dreamlike voice to look at the surging energy under his feet:

"You're... You are a Titan! My beard is on it! ”

"I am... Elune! ”

The voice sounded in Muradin's head, and at the same time, the dwarf's eyes lost focus, as if their souls had been withdrawn, but this was not a malicious attack, at this moment, Muradin's will seemed to enter another dimension, and he was looking at the blue planet in front of him from the perspective of a third party as a bystander. Grow.

Muradin saw that when the world was born, every elemental creature on the surface of the planet was constantly fighting, those ancient elements were the beginning of life in every world, and in the collision and annihilation of the elements, the most primitive power of the stars was infused into the world that had not yet really taken shape, so that the earth was gradually filled with the power to give birth to life.

The power of the wind rises and eventually forms the sky, while the power of water precipitates and then becomes the ocean, and the power of the earth condenses little by little to shape the mountains and plains of the whole world, and finally fire...

The burning of fire brought with it the temperature and heat that gave birth to the first life in the oceans.

They evolved like fish in the water, ready to start the cycle of life, however, this normal process was interrupted, and the five creatures that emerged from the rift in the void were invaders, and they ate each other, killing the weakest one, and then filling the remaining four with power, and in Muradin's eyes, everything seemed like a fast-forward picture, and he saw the ancient gods corrupt the earth, shaping a dark empire full of fallen glory in that dark age.

He saw the corrosion in the depths of the world, the sorrow of the whole world of birth, and the helpless spirit of the world, haunted by the power of darkness, like a baby, could only hide in its own cradle.

This filled Muradin's heart with anger... The Elder Gods, indeed they are, the beginning of all disasters and nightmares!

But the next moment, Muradin saw again...

He saw the hand of the gods descending from the stars, and brutally grabbed the most powerful of the Elder Gods, Asshaji, and uprooted it from the ground, the Old God died, but the scars it left almost tore the fragile world, and the blood of the blue world poured out of the wounds, so that the Titans in the stars did not dare to execute the remaining Elder Gods in the same way.

So they sent their warriors!

Guardians!

Muradin clearly saw the Great Guardian Rai and the flaming beard Odin descending from the sky, and Odin was not blind at that time.

He saw the Guardians build the Titan city of Ulduar, and from the Creator's Forge the Iron Warriors of the Protectors to protect the world, and then the birth of new Guardians, who commanded the Titans' undefeated legions against the evil that grew throughout the world, and those Guardians were so heroic that they commanded the legions, bravely fought into the dark empire of the Old Gods, and easily defeated their rotten soldiers.

And the elements that aided the abuse, the arrival of the Old Gods allowed these Ancient Elements to avoid the end of annihilation, allowing them to continue their chaotic and nonsensical wars, they became the evil servants of the Old Gods, but they eventually got their own punishment, and the Guardians defeated their evil masters and drove the Elementals out of this world.

The Elemental Realm was divided, and all the darkness left behind by the Elder Gods was cleared, and even the Elder Gods themselves were imprisoned.

So, the era of order has arrived!

The Guardians healed the world with the instruments they crafted, built Uldaman and Uldem, and many laboratories belonging to the Titans, and the valiant Iron Soldiers laid down their weapons and became the cornerstone of a reorganized world.

Everything seemed to be in order, but the dark conspiracy did not stop there, and in Muradin's eyes, the great events of the ancient times happened one after another, the Guardians were pushed apart by the traitors, and the order of the world was shattered again by the spread of the Flesh Curse.

Muradin even saw the dwarven ancestors staggering through the snow...

The War of the Ancients, the Battle of Sartre, the Crisis of the Iron of Saron, the Establishment and Collapse of the Human Empire, the Escape of the Dwarves and Gnomes from Uldaman...

At that moment, Muradin, as a spectator, experienced the evolution of civilization in the world of Azeroth in its entirety, as if he had entered it and participated in it.

And from the flashback of the world's landscape, Muradin finally confirmed the existence in front of him...

Elune, the spirit of the world in Azeroth, the moon god worshipped by the elves, and an ancient god not believed by other civilizations.

She is truly there, she is as old and sacred as the world itself, she is here, her eyes hovering in the sky, and everything that happens in this world is under the attention of this world spirit.

She is the spirit that shapes all things, the things that the world bears.

She is the Spirit of All Souls, the Blood of All Blood, the Source of All Sources!

She is the ultimate secret of this world!

"Bang"

Dropping down on one knee sincerely, Muradin took the Creation Scepter in his hands, and the diamond dwarf said in a respectful tone:

"At your call, I have come, Venerable Elune, please give your oracle!"

"Don't call me a god, Muradin."

At Tyrion's request, Elune spoke slowly in a dignified and low tone:

"Like you, I am a creature born from this group of stars, in the past time, I have seen your civilization, I have felt the power from civilization, I have seen you proudly defeat the demons of the ancient gods and stars, I feel proud of you."

"But Muradin, now is not the time to celebrate victory, the threat of darkness has not yet dissipated, and a difficult final battle is coming..."

"That's why I've called you here, I need you, the only voice in the world who can listen to me, to bring the message to all living beings in the world..."

"The oldest power of the stars is about to enter this world, he has come for destruction and purification, the Dark Titan Sargeras, that is my ancestor, that is my masked relative, but alas, we will stand against him."

"At this moment, I have never been so connected to your fate, Muradin, I have nothing to give you, I can only give you the last strength and blessing I have left, but I will be with you..."

"On that final battlefield, I will fight side by side with you!"

Elune's warning made the diamond dwarf clench his fists, he raised his head, looked at the floating blue curtain in front of him, and said:

"You need me to warn them? But... I'm just a dwarf, I can't help it..."

"Nope! Muradin! ”

Elune's power flashed out of the blue curtain of light, swaying over the dwarf's body like a stirring blue halo, elevating his authority to the guardian rank in an instant, and connecting Muradin's will to the world.

And in the midst of that light, a brass-colored necklace inlaid with beautiful radiant crystals, also manipulated by a pair of invisible hands, hung on Muradin's shoulder.

"From this day forward, Muradin. Copperbeard, you will be my spokesperson, and you will speak for the whole world! ”

"I give you the Heart of Azeroth, born in the heart of the earth, which will make you one with the world, and it will give you and me strength... Go, Muradin, and gather all the warriors who are willing to fight for this world... Let them unite as one, help them resolve disputes, and unite the power of all things in this world, only in this way can we find the last shred of life in the defeated war of the end. ”

"Muradin, don't stop, let them unite, the time left for us..."

"Already, not much..."
