The Dream Stone regained its composure, and the corpses of Cobryen and Pisas turned into a puddle of black mud before Nalarex's eyes, and then quickly evaporated, leaving no trace of it visible. The great druid stood there with a lonely expression, not knowing whether he regretted his past or missed the voices of his disciples.

"Master Nalarex, please don't be too sad, any flaw in your heart will give the Nightmare Lord a chance." Canos and Thassarian agreed that Bin was responsible for the dealings with the Grand Druid, and in desperation, he took over the errand, "I deeply regret what happened to you and your followers. ”

"You don't look like an undead. I'm sorry, but I didn't mean to humiliate you! Nararex rubbed his eyebrows, "I think you guys can be trusted." Please tell me, what happened while I was sleeping? Why did my disciple become like this? ”

"It's a complex and long story, and I've only learned a small part of it." Yu Bin didn't hide anything, even his own sabotage of the fangs druid's plans, and Thassarian's battle on the Cliff of Eternal Life, he believed that this great druid was not a hairy boy, and he knew how he should judge the truth of these things.

"That's the case, my friends from the Fireblade Clan and I are here for this and have awakened you with the help of Lady Anna."

"It turns out that I have been asleep for decades." Nalarex glanced back at the rock platform, where Anna Kodra's body was laid out, "I predicted that the power of the Emerald Dream would help restore the natural balance of this land, but I didn't expect the darkness to exist behind that gate. ”

This is also one of Yu Bin's worries: "The Lord of Nightmares has been freed, he has even gained the power of the abyss, if left unchecked, this ancient existence will eventually become a threat to this world." ”

Nalarex shook his head and said, "No, I don't think that's the real Lord of Nightmares. According to the documents of the Council of Cenarion, the true Lord of Nightmares was born in a dream of the God of Creation, and his power came directly from the power of the God of Creation, and it was impossible for him to be imprisoned in the depths of the Emerald Dream by Isera, the Queen of the Green Dragon. If I'm correct, it's probably a nightmare that luckily gained some kind of power. ”

"Nightmares? That kind of thing that is covered in hellfire and looks like a war horse? ”

"No, it's a nightmare. The ancient dragons created the Emerald Dream to separate reality from illusion, which is like the front and back of a piece of paper, if you drip a drop of ink on the front of the paper, you can also see the traces of ink spots on the back. The nightmare is the projection of the darkness of reality in the Emerald Dream. Nalarex did not disdain Yu Bin because of his identity and strength, but patiently taught, "Even the Green Dragon Legion is difficult to destroy a nightmare, so they can only be restrained in the depths of the dream and guarded day and night, but obviously, one of the nightmares has escaped. ”

Yu Bin glanced at the Fire Blade Shaman who was listening intently: "Although in your opinion, the nightmare that escaped from the Emerald Dream Realm is not a big problem, but for the Fire Blade Clan who are preparing to move to the barren land, I am afraid that they will not be able to withstand this terrible existence wandering around, Master Nalarex, can you tell me how to eliminate that culprit." ”

"The self-proclaimed Nightmare Lord is not an indestructible existence, I am more worried about the Emerald Dreamland, and the nightmare's escape means that something is wrong with the Green Dragon Legion responsible for guarding them." Nararex said halfway before finally realizing that the creatures in front of him were too different from their own level, and these questions were not for them to go back to consider, "Okay, my old habit is done again. Thank you, my few unsuccessful disciples have obviously been deceived by that nightmare, and I will find him as soon as possible and put him back in the cage of the Emerald Dream Realm. ”

Nararex's promise apparently relieved Kanos and the Fireblade Shaman, and as for purifying the Sweet Water Oasis of the power of death, the Grand Druid also said that if you place a few purification circles in the underground fountains of the Wailing Cavern, the vapor that erupts from the fountains will have a purifying effect, and while it may take months to see noticeable improvements, even your orc shamans can do it.

The awakening of Nalarex also means that this expedition to the Wailing Cave has finally reached the end, Yu Bin helped the great druid bury Anna Kodra's body in the crypt near the Sweet Dream Stone, the natural power leaked from the Emerald Dream will protect the body of the female druid from darkness and death, and Nararex said that he still wants to stay in the Wailing Cave to do some things after a short period of hanging.

"Among the people who followed me to the Barren Lands at the beginning, there is also a disciple I value the most, his name is Sephine Dis, since Anna and they can maintain their sanity under the erosion of darkness, then I think Sephindis must also be alive, and it is even possible to bring some survivors waiting for me to rescue them, although this hope is very slim, but I must find him, whether he is alive or turned into a corpse, this is my responsibility and my obligation!"

After Nararex left these words, he disappeared into the complex underground cavern, while Yu Bin followed the Fire Blade Shaman to the area where the underground fountain was located, preparing to set up a purification circle there.

Let's press Yu Bin and his line, let's talk about this great druid who has been sleeping for decades and finally woke up.

Anna Kodra's death depressed Nalarex for several days, during which he searched the fangs of the abyss, saw the traces left by the druids who were eroded by the darkness and turned into puppets, and also saw the self-salvation of Corbrine and others, with the release of powerful natural spells one by one, Nalarex learned through the tools and traces left behind that these followers had experienced, struggled, and redeemed.

It wasn't until the sixth day after he woke up, when Nalarex came to a wide shoal along the underground river, that the sounds of fighting reached his ears from a distance.

A gigantic treant was attacking several druids, and the leader of those druids was none other than the Sephine Dis he was looking for, the disciple whom Nalarex was most satisfied with and trusted.

The strength of the Treants is not strong, they are completely relying on their size to bully people, but those druids led by Sephindis do not seem to be in very good shape, in Nalarex's memory, Serfendis was more heroic than Cowbryan and others when he followed him to the Barrens, and now, he looks like an apprentice who has just learned the way of nature.

Nalarex believes that this is most likely the result of the erosion of darkness, which caused Cowbrine and others to lose their minds, and that Sirphine Dis may have chosen to close his mind in order to fight the dark forces.

Seeing that those druids were beginning to show their defeats, Nalarex immediately emerged from the darkness, and while blocking the attack of the giant tree people with the summoned vines, he walked towards the druids: "Sephindis, you take them to heal one after another, and I will deal with this big guy." ”

"Teacher? You...... Are you awake? Sephantis looked at Nalarex with an incredulous expression, "Is this my hallucination?" Are you really a teacher? ”

Appearance can lie, but strength cannot be disguised, Nalarex instigated the power of nature within him, and the emerald green light shrouded the legendary Grand Druid, and the powerful force of nature even caused the surrounding moss and ferns to flourish, quickly creating an underground jungle.

"It's really a teacher! That's great! We are finally saved! Sephindis and those druids cheered as if they had seen relatives, which made Nalarex very emotional, he believed that these druids must have suffered a lot under the leadership of Sephantis, and even Caulbryan and their group could not resist the erosion of that nightmare, how many people could Serphindis shelter alone.

Perhaps the fact of seeing Nalarex made those druids too excited, and as the cheers stopped abruptly, those druids fell down one by one, making Nalarex very nervous, and he quickly came to Serfendis's side and helped his disciple up: "What's the matter?" Why is your strength so weak? ”

"Teacher! Great, you're alive! After you slept, the terrible dark power appeared from your dreams, eroding everyone present at the time, many of them turned into terrible monsters on the spot, in order to prevent them from harming your body, I took some people who could still keep their sanity to lure those monsters away and sent a warning to Cowbryan and them. "The situation in Serphindis is so bad that Nararex can't even feel any force of nature in his body, which is simply impossible for a druid," but the dark forces were too strong and the men they had gathered in Cowbrien soon fell as well, and I had to leave the Dream Stone far away with the survivors. We found that the power of nature in our body was the guiding light in this dark underground cavern, guiding those dark forces to track them down, many people died in constant battles, and finally in order to preserve the little power left, we had to close the source of magic in our bodies. ”

Nalarex can imagine how hard the druids led by Serphindis lived without the power of nature, their flesh was not strong enough, many of them could not even defeat those velociraptors, and could only hide in dark corners and rely on some moss and underground plants to sustain their lives, and at any time they needed to hide from the dark forces that were constantly tracking them.

"I'm sorry, Sephine Dis! It's all my fault, I opened the door without thinking about how to close him! Nalarex felt the frail body of Serphine Dis, and once again regretted his recklessness decades ago.

At this moment, the huge tree man did not know where to get his strength, and he broke free from the vines summoned by Nalarex, and attacked everyone with heavy steps, and the huge fist hit the head like a meteorite, threatening to crush everyone present into meat sauce.

"Be careful, Teacher, these corrupted treants are able to absorb power from the darkness around them!" Sensing the danger, Sephantis struggled as he warned of it, trying to stand up against the monster.

"I'm here, don't worry! From now on, no one can hurt you! How could Nalarex let his last disciple face danger again, he pointed at the huge tree man without hesitation, and a huge force of nature surged out of his body, burrowing into the ground, and soon, a huge vibration came from the ground, and a giant with roots and broken stone stood in front of the tree man monster, and the giant, who was a head taller than the tree man, knocked the corrupted tree man back, and the two huge creatures scuffled together.

It was the earth elemental that Nalarex had summoned with the ferns mixed with the power of nature, and with the strength of the legendary Grand Druid, it was enough to crush the corrupted treeman.

However, at the same time as those forces of nature burrowed into the ground, a heart-piercing pain came from the back of Nalarex, and a pitch-black blade had penetrated the chest of the great druid at some point, and from the murder weapon, some black liquid could be seen slowly wriggling, Nalarex was very familiar with this, it was the abyssal power that had been purified by himself a few days ago!

"Sephine Dis, you!" There is no doubt that it was none other than his most trusted disciple, Serphindis, who gave Nalarrex the fatal blow.

I saw that the originally dying Sirphantis had already stood up at this time, and even the other druids couldn't see the appearance of dying or alive before. There was only a blank look on Sephantis's face at this time, like an unconscious shell.

"Miklash, Lord of Nightmares!!" Nalarex gritted his teeth and shouted the name.

"Hahaha, do you like this gift I gave you?" A flirtatious voice came from Serphinedis's mouth, and Nalarex was sure it was definitely not Serphinedis's voice, "For the sake of this day, I have made it to live these poor fellows until now. Praise the Abyss, these idiots have taken the initiative to close the source of their magical power, allowing me to easily control them with the Abyss Seed. What do you think? The feeling of dying at the hands of your own disciples must be unforgettable, right? ”

A rich green glow appeared from Nalarex's palm, and he pressed his palm against the wound, trying to use the powerful force of nature to heal the abyssal infection in his body: "Do you think this will kill me? ”

"Kill you? Hahaha, how could I be willing to kill you! You're the most important part of my whole plan! ”

"You want to use my body as a container to completely fuse the power of the abyss?" Realizing some terrible consequence, Nalarex's voice even carried a hint of trembling, "You are delusional, even if I die, the natural force in this body will instinctively repel the abyss power, and you can only harvest a bunch of residues after the clash of forces!" ”

"You don't have to worry about it! I might as well tell you that those abyssal forces injected into your body have been purified by the force of nature for tens of thousands of years, and they have long been mixed with the power of nature! I have to thank you for your good apprentices! If it weren't for them, I wouldn't have been able to obtain this special abyssal power from the core of the Eternals so easily! ”

Nalarex finally knew what he was up against, and he could feel that the abyssal power that had penetrated deep into his body was not disappearing under his own purification, but slowly devouring the power of nature to strengthen himself. To make matters worse, the few druids who were controlled by the Abyssal Seed soon melted into puddles of black mud in front of Nalarex, and then concentrated on Sephindis's body, eventually turning into a large mass of black liquid.

Nalarex's last memory is that he was engulfed in that black liquid!
