Chapter 594: Time Hourglass
The hourglass of time is always on. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
It draws endless energy from the time vortex to ensure its continuous operation.
Chromie clasps Sean's hand and takes him on a journey through time.
It's not the first time, it's the second time.
The difference is that the last time I used the power of a one-time bronze dragon artifact, the power contained in it was too weak, so that time journey did not go very smoothly, and Sean at that time was still asleep and did not have the opportunity to appreciate the wonderful scenery of the time vortex.
This time it's different.
The Hourglass of Time has an endless supply of energy - as long as time flows, as long as Azeroth exists, even if it does not exist, as long as Azeroth has had a past, with countless different timelines and different endings, then the Hourglass of Time has a steady source of energy, and it is endless.
This time the time journey, as Sean said, was with his eyes open.
Countless moving images passed by his eyes, and he saw one familiar or unfamiliar face after another, seeing humans, elves, dwarves, gnomes, goblins, orcs, minotaurs, centaurs, forsaken, demons, dragons, and even the phantom of the Titan Guardian.
Chromie takes him, in the whirlpool of time, against the current, from the present to the past, not too far away.
Twenty-six years ago, the day the door of darkness opened.
Sean felt the growing resistance.
It takes a lot of energy to travel through the timeline, because there will be a lot of resistance, and that is from the time and space itself.
Each time node will instinctively repel creatures from other time nodes, which is the self-protection function of the timeline.
The Time Hourglass is one of the Titan's most subtle artifacts, which itself involves the time rules of Azeroth, and it uses the timeline itself as an energy source, so it will not be rejected by the protection mechanism of the timeline, so the Bronze Dragons can use the power of the Time Hourglass to monitor the timeline.
Without the hourglass of time, even a powerful dragon king like Northdom would not have the ability to travel time.
Every time I traveled through time before, everything went very smoothly because the Bronze Dragon Clan did not intend to interfere with the course of history, but only monitored and observed as a bystander.
But this time is different.
This time, the time node they want to enter is one of the most important time nodes in the history of Azeroth, and it has been greatly protected by the timeline, even if the power of the time hourglass is very large, they have also encountered the rejection of the timeline.
Moreover, the place where they were going was a black swamp, near the Gate of Darkness.
In this area, the astral mage Medivan is conducting a ritual to open the Dark Gate.
At this time, Medivan's own soul was in a weak or sleeping state, and it was a little bit of the soul of the fallen Titan Sargeras who dominated his body.
Sargeras was the most valiant warrior of the Pantheon, single-handedly destroying the entire Pantheon and killing all the Titans. He may not be good at the field of time, but his understanding of time is still not comparable to ordinary people, even most bronze dragons.
Any fluctuation in time or space would attract his attention.
He will use his power to stop the arrival of the traverser.
Although he is opening the dark door, his power is so huge, even if he only uses a little power, it is enough to have a certain impact on Sean and Chromie's time travel.
The closer you get to the point in time when the Dark Portal opens, the slower you traverse the timeline.
When Sean and Chromie came within a year of opening the Dark Gate, the speed of the crossing was even close to zero, almost static.
Chromie's efforts to communicate with the hourglass of time, hoping to use the hourglass to gain more power.
Looking at Chromie, who was frowning, Sean thought thoughtfully.
Time is the most wonderful and mysterious thing in the world, and the transformation system in arcane magic is involved in this, but there are very few mages who really study time spells in depth.
Gianna and Kael'thas are very accomplished in the transformation system, but one is proficient in teleportation, and the other is good at gravity distortion, both of which have nothing to do with time.
In this world, except for the bronze dragon clan who was born with the ability to affect time because of the blessing of the Titans, and the few Titan guardians, I am afraid that there is only one person who has studied time spells deeply.
That was the Astral Mage Medivan.
Sean doesn't understand time spells, not at all.
But he knew that it wasn't just him and Chromie who wanted to travel back in time to the point in time when the Dark Gate opened, but also the Eternal Dragons.
The Eternal Dragons, who want to destroy the opening of the Dark Gate.
To this end, they have sent very powerful forces, including several Legendary-level Time Lords, as well as several Legendary-level Eternal Dragons.
The Eternal Dragons are fallen bronze dragons who travel through time and need the power of the hourglass.
Among the countless timelines, there is only one hourglass of time, which is the only one.
It needs to serve both teams at the same time, helping them with their time travel.
Although the Time Hourglass is an artifact of the Bronze Dragon Clan, with an endless source of energy, it is still a tool after all, with a rated upper limit and limited functions.
It has no soul and can only be manipulated by the Bronze Dragons and the Eternal Dragons.
In the original timeline, without the existence of Sean, the adventurers at that time successfully came to the time node when the dark door opened, defeated the eternal dragons, and protected the normal opening of the dark door.
But because of Sean's appearance, everything changes.
The Eternal Dragons are the Bronze Dragons who will fall in the future, so they naturally know about Sean's existence, they have also learned about Sean's existence, and they also know all the plans of the Bronze Dragons, including asking Sean for help to stop them.
So they will definitely stop Sean's time travel.
Then the best way, naturally, is to directly affect the hourglass of time.
So that Sean can't use the time hourglass to smoothly travel through time.
The current situation is likely to be caused by the Eternal Dragons.
Sean smiled slightly.
The future Eternal Dragons, although they know their existence, will not know the existence of the Space Fortress, nor will they know the existence of the Gate of Time.
So you wouldn't know that even without the power of the hourglass of time, Sean can travel through time.
And it's not difficult. (To be continued.) )
