Grimbaatar, the masterpiece that the Hammer Dwarves were once most proud of, is naturally impossible not to remember. With {dream} small ◢.1a

But it has not been recovered, and there is a natural reason.

"Now in the whole of Hinterland, there are only more than 20,000 Brute Hammer Dwarves left." Furstad shook his head and said, "Nicholas, you don't know, in that battle, my father Cardeiro killed Mordgood, the Queen of Black Iron, and she cursed Grimbaatar before she died, it is full of weirdness and evil, otherwise we wouldn't have left there." ”

Jiang Zheng smiled, and then said, "The curse is not impossible to break." It wasn't Mordgood who really cursed the city back then, she didn't have that ability yet. What really cursed Grimbaatar was actually a dagger called 'Saratas', which was Mordgood's weapon at the time. To tell you the truth, if it weren't for that dagger that abandoned Mordgood at the most critical moment, your father probably wouldn't have been able to kill her, and even the Brute Hammer Dwarf might not have existed anymore! ”

Jiang Zheng's words were obviously not very good, but Furstad was not Kudran, so he would not be angry because of such words, but nodded and said, "Mordgood was the most powerful wizard of the dwarves at that time, and his strength was a little excessive. When the Black Iron Dwarf invaded Grimbaatar, we couldn't stop it, and she was able to summon fearful and evil shadow creatures to crawl out of the depths of the earth, making it impossible for us to resist! My father could have killed her, indeed...... Some legends. ”

"The shadow creatures she summoned are probably similar to these."

Jiang Zai took out the Excalibur Stumka, and the spikes of corruption burrowed out of the ground, looking twisted and dark.

Furstad thought about it carefully, and a look of surprise appeared on his face: "I have seen the old picture scrolls, there are these things, but there are more things!" Mordgood's shadow power is far stronger than this sword! ”

Jiang Zai put away the divine sword and said with a smile: "'Saratas', it is said to be the name of an ancient god, that dagger, made from the claws of that ancient god, was used to perform the sacrificial rituals of the Dark Empire in ancient times. It is indeed much more powerful than Stamma. ”

Furstad looked dazed.

Gods of the Ancients? What is that?

What is the Dark Empire?

He had absolutely no idea.

"I think there are at least three ways to lift Grimbaato's curse." Jiang Zai said.

Three ways?

There are even three more?

Furstad was agitated, his eyes widened and his heart pounded.

How could the Brutehammer Dwarves not want to reclaim Grimbaatar? It's just that it can't be helped.

If only the curse could be lifted and Grimbaatar could be recovered, the Hammer Dwarves would be crazy with joy!

"The Holy Light is the enemy of the Shadows. The curse of Salatas, I think can be purified with a powerful holy light. But Saratas' power is too strong, even if a thousand paladins are mobilized, I am afraid that it will not be possible in two or three months. ”

Jiang Zheng smiled and stretched out a finger: "The only person in this world who can mobilize so many paladins is Luo Danlun. But Lordaeron still has almost half of its land covered in the undead plague and needs to be purified, and there will be no way to help you for at least five years. ”

Furstad nodded secretly, taking it to heart.

The Brute Hammer Dwarf had waited for three hundred years, so he was naturally not afraid to wait another five years, but he still wanted to hear about other methods.

"The druids of the Kalimdor continent once tried to fight against the ancient gods, and there is a towering tree of life in the northeast corner of Hinterland, which was planted by the druids to eliminate the corrupting power of the Saron Evil Iron Vein, and the effect is very good."

Jiang Zai stretched out his second finger: "Planting the Tree of Life requires the branches of the World Tree, this is simple, I have a World Tree 'Taidahir'." But to nurture it to the point where it can destroy the power of Grimbaatar's curse, I'm afraid that many druids will have to take care of it themselves. There are only five druids in Teldashir to take care of, so you don't have to think about it, and the druids have no reason to help you. ”

This is true.

Most of the druid's current strength is in the Emerald Dream Realm, helping the green dragon deal with the Emerald Nightmare, and a small part of the force is busy treating the forests and lands destroyed by the Burning Legion, and they can't spare their hands at all.

Furstad was a little disappointed.

"The third method is simple, the bell must be tied to the bell. As long as you can find Saratas and control it completely, then the curse can be lifted. ”

Jiang Zai stretched out a third finger: "And I happen to know where Saratas is." ”

"Where?" Furstad stood up suddenly, his eyes wide and excited.

Jiang Zai smiled and said, "Don't get excited, Great Lord. The power of Salatas is too terrifying, and it is necessary to control it completely, and with all due respect, no one has that ability for the time being. ”

It's true that no one has that ability.

Of all the artifacts in Azeroth's class, it is the top and the biggest. There are very few that can compare with it.

Where Saratas is, Jiang Zai doesn't know, but there is one person who knows: Benedictas, the Archbishop of the Holy Light of Stormwind City, is the one who got Saratas and sealed it.

As long as you find him, you can naturally find a way to find Saratas.

But Jiang Zheng has never moved that thought, not only because Benedictas is not easy to deal with, but also because he is not confident that he can control Salatas, even if he is combined with Anvina, he is still not sure.

After all, Anvena is only the embodiment of a small mass of Azeroth's blood, while Saratas is the claw of the ancient gods, and there is a big difference.

But just because you can't do it now doesn't mean you can't in the future.

Seeing the disappointment on Furstad's face, Jiang Zai smiled and said, "Don't worry, give me a little time, I think I will control it." I wonder if we should get together for a meeting and discuss what to do. It also takes time to hold a meeting and transfer troops, and it also takes time to clear the dragon-throated orcs and black iron dwarves. After all this is done, I'm afraid at least a year has passed, right? I think when the time comes, I'll be in control of Saratas. ”

A few months have passed, and Jiang Zheng is already at the ninth level.

He believes that within a year, he can complete the breakthrough and reach another higher level.

When that time comes, it's time to take control of Saratas and take on Twilight's hammer!

"Okay, I'll think about it." Furstad finally regained his composure and sat back in his seat.

He is an old and serious lord, and it is impossible to make a decision easily because of Jiang Zheng's few words.

He had to find a way to get more information to make sure that what Jiang Zai said was true, and he had to find a way to contact Lordaeron and the Night Elves to see if the other two methods could work.

In Furstad's opinion, Jiang Zai is still young, has too little knowledge, and underestimates some things:

If this is a joint development of wetlands, it involves the interests of several countries, and the endless bickering will take many months, and it will also have to consider the reaction of Blackstone Mountain and the reaction of Twilight Heights, which is not so simple.

If you want to drive away the dragon-throated orcs and black iron dwarves in the wetlands, you will definitely not be able to do it in a year, maybe two or three years, or even longer, and you can't be in a hurry.

Besides, the losses of the Hammer Griffin Knight this year have been too serious, and they must be replenished as soon as possible, otherwise the strength will be insufficient.

Furstad thought of more.

After the Battle of the Three Hammers, not all of the Hammer Dwarves followed his father to the Eagle's Nest, and some fled to the east of Grimbaatar, which is what Jiang Zai calls the "Twilight Heights".

If Grimbaatar can really be recovered, maybe those lost Brute Hammer Dwarves can be recovered, then the strength of the Brute Hammer Dwarves will not be at the bottom of the three major dwarf clans, which is a great feat!

"You can seriously think about it, this matter is urgent, we have time."

Jiang Zai smiled, and then said, "Now, let's talk about one last thing: didn't you say that griffins are not easy to raise and eat too much meat?" Well, give me a part, and I'll help you raise it, what do you think? ”
