Chapter 254: Entering the Emerald Dream Realm
ps: Watch the exclusive story behind "League of Legends Invasion of Azeroth", listen to more of your suggestions for the novel, pay attention to the official account (add friends on WeChat - add official account - enter dd), and quietly tell me!
The first to arrive here were Karthas and Hecarim. Both Lich and Centaur are experts in souls. And Death Knight Brooks, who also came here with Karthas.
Seeing the Metal Master emerge from the summoning circle, Hecarim stopped running meaninglessly, "Mordkaiser? ”
The Metal Master strode over, "I thought I'd be back on the Isle of Shadows. ”
All three of them are from Shadow Isle, and their origins are not simple. Evelyn is also from the Isle of Shadows, but she didn't come this time.
Karthas had just spoken a few words to Maude Caesar when a second group arrived: Sal, Anna, Khadgar, and Kael'thas.
Bloxs nodded to Sal as a greeting. He was a warrior of the tribe before he became a death knight, and even if he became what he is now, he has an extraordinary affection for orcs.
At this moment, the iron giant-like Notilus walked out of the circle.
Sal froze for a moment, his blue eyes widening, "This is really a big guy!" ”
"It seems to be made of iron, is it a mechanical golem?" Khadgar guessed.
Notilus heard their voices and spoke, "I'm not a steel golem, I'm a diver!" It's just that I can't take it off after wearing this steel anti-pressure suit. ”
The sound he made sounded like mechanical as it passed through the steel shell, mixed with the vibrations of the metal humming.
Khadgar asked curiously, "So how do you eat?" He looked up at Notilus. Guess if it is necessary to open the sealed cabin of the head and then let people climb up to feed it?
Natilus exclaimed, "I don't have to eat!" ”
The second batch of Valoran heroes also gradually arrived here. Marzaha and Sindra are among them.
When Jana appeared, someone couldn't help but whistle. The overall ethos in Azeroth tends to be conservative. It is relatively rare for such a woman to be sexy and beautiful and wear little.
She stood on the ground, her expression a little distressed.
"What's wrong with her?"
"Can't fly."
Brower and Nightmare ask and answer.
Jana is favored by the Wind Spirit in Valoran, and as the embodiment of the Wind Spirit, her feet rarely touch the ground. Just as Sindra seldom stood on the ground after possessing a large telekinesis, they were all accustomed to using their natural abilities at all times.
Telekinesis comes from itself, but Valoran's Wind Spirit and Azeroth's Wind Spirit are obviously not the same system. In order for Cana to gain her previous abilities, she obviously needs to regain the approval of the Wind Spirit of this world.
As usual, Jana tried to reach the Wind Spirit, but received no response. She walked up to the other heroes in distress and sighed, "I really didn't expect it. Coming here, I became a useless hero. Alas, how can I help the commander in this way? ”
Thrall heard what others were saying and asked strangely, "Why don't you try to communicate with the Wind Spirit of Azeroth?" ”
"But...... What should I do? Cana looked at the orc chief suspiciously.
Thrall: "I have experienced two different worlds, and while Azeroth and Draenor have different elemental spirit identities, there is no essential difference in the way they communicate. Perhaps you should learn the way of shamanism. ”
"Manner, essence ......" Jana understood the crux of the matter at once, and she smiled again and said to Sal excitedly. Thank you! I know what to do - my name is Jana, and I don't know what to call you yet? ”
"This is Thrall, the Great Chief of the Orcs!" Karthas next to him said.
"Thank you, Sal!" Jana thanked her again.
Because of the other party's guidance, Jana immediately understood the problem. She had drilled the tip of the horns, and now that she was not in Valoran, how could she possibly get the help of the Wind Spirit of the original world?
She recalls the first time she felt the Spirit of the Wind. Try to get in touch with the wind spirits of this world.
By this time, Zyra had already stepped out of the summoning circle.
Broll looked at the woman, who was only covered with colorful leaves and petals, and couldn't help but take a few more looks. "She's obviously human. Why do I think she's like a plant-based creature like a flower demon? ”
"That means you're right." Nightmare "hehe" laughed a few times.
Zyra's body is the Flower Demon, and later devoured the mage who now has this body. And after fusing the memories of the other party, he became a human form.
"Another beauty!"
Another whistle sounded.
Compared with the sexy but fresh temperament of Jana, the nine-tailed demon fox Ahri is the most popular and seductive woman in the eyes of people, her smart eyes seem to be able to hook people's souls, and her every move exudes a fatal attraction.
"Valoran is such a great place!"
Bane, the son of the Minotaur chief Kane, was also here, and he looked at the troll leader Woking and asked, "What do you think?" He was referring to the Ahri who almost stared out of their eyes at the sight of humans.
"It's too short." Woking glanced at Ahri and replied.
"In addition to being short, I'm also too thin." Bane commented earnestly with the aesthetics of the Minotaur. He looked at it again and added, "The breasts are passable, and the breastfeeding ability should be good, but they are not attractive to me. ”
Woking shrugged: "I don't understand why those humans would like this. ”
Both express incomprehension.
After summoning Ahri, Jiang Weihan found that the energy of Valoran's Heart was enough to summon about ten more ordinary heroes, but he was not prepared to use it that way.
The Nightmare Invasion has put one-third of the world's living beings to sleep. This includes not only intelligent creatures such as humans, elves, dwarves, and goblins, but also all kinds of animals that dream when they fall asleep. Wolves, dogs, bears, leopards, tigers, lions, cows, kodors, griffins, mammoths...... Basically, with the exception of dragons, about one-third of the vast majority of large and medium-sized animals are devoured by nightmares.
These sleepers will become minions of the Nightmare, as long as Harvey orders it. Nightmare Minions will be able to enter the real world as a semi-physical state in the special case of dreams fused with reality, and attack Harvis's enemies.
But now Harvey doesn't have the essence of the World Tree to draw on. He no longer has the ability to haunt other people who are not asleep with nightmares. In this case, it is clear that summoning tens of thousands of ordinary people would be much more useful than summoning ten heroes.
Jiang Weihan quit Valoran's Heart. Seeing that the people had arrived, he spoke, "Now that time is pressing, let me first talk about the general plan - the main body of the Nightmare King is located on a cliff north of Azhara, and after our reconnaissance, we found that there are countless facelesss, Krakens, and nightmare minions gathered there, and it is difficult for us to break through the defense line from the sea or from the ground. And his soul is in the Emerald Dream Realm, guarded by the souls of all the sleeping people in the world, and even the owner of the dream, the Green Dragon Queen Ysera, cannot resist his power. It's much harder to attack than to destroy its body. ”
"And what can we do to defeat him?" Prince Kael'thas asked.
"We may need the help of a key person." Jiang Weihan is talking about the great druid Malfurion, who is trapped in a dream, and he gives a general introduction to Malfurion's situation. And then added, "If we can wake him up from his dream, he'll do the rest." ”
After a pause, he continued: "If not, then we will have to save ourselves—I think the will of the world if we are really in a desperate situation—or maybe Mother Earth, who will not only identify a specific person to give strength. If our own strength is no match for the Nightmare King, then we can only hope for the help of Mother Earth. ”
Listen to him talk about Mother Earth. Hamuel, Bane, and Moon, the three minotaurs who came here, bowed their heads and said reverently, "Mother Earth protects us. ”
"It's a terrible feeling that this fate is in someone else's hands." Khadgar gave a wry smile. He was reminded of the vision of his future that he had seen in Karazhan more than a decade ago, the last time he had faced a combined attack by Akmund and Kil'Gardan in the Outlands. He relied on the illusion to comfort himself, believing that his final moment was not at that time, in that place, and that they were out of danger.
Then the place of the battle this time is in Azeroth. There will also be no such scenes in the illusion, so does it mean that Harvey will still not succeed in the end?
Khadgar shook his head. Throw off this logically absurd reasoning. On more than one occasion after returning to Azeroth, a certain thought arose to him - if I committed suicide here. Will it be successful?
If the suicide is successful, then Karazhan's prophecy is meaningless; If it doesn't work out – then a qiē is worth pondering.
"You're right, but at least our fate isn't in the hands of the enemy." Cassadine spoke from the side.
"What do the gods—the moon goddess, Mother Earth, these almost omnipotent gods—think?" Khadgar's mind drifted to the other side, and he thought, "If I were a god, at least I wouldn't have helped my people when they were in desperate need."
"We must learn to walk on our own, not to be supported by the gods." Cassadine's words woke Khadgar up like thunder.
Remulos, the Guardian of the Jungle, begins to cast a spell on the portal in front of the Dream Tree, preparing to open it.
The topic returned to Jiang Weihan. Sal asked, "Is it still according to the original plan?" ”
The original plan was for dreams and reality to go hand in hand, Jiang Weihan led a group of heroes who were good at dealing with spirit enemies into the Emerald Dream Realm to rescue Cenarius and Malfurion, while Thrall, a powerful shaman, led the rest of the people to gather a large army and go to Ayshara to deal with the main body of Harvis, the twisted oak tree on the cliff.
"Now we have a better plan." Jiang Weihan smiled.
Over there, Remloth had finished casting, and the purple portal began to glow, indicating that it was working.
Jiang Weihan separated his soul and took the lead through the portal and into the dream.
Everyone saw it.
It makes sense that his body was now out of control, as defenseless as Malfurion in the Furious Wind's den. But after only a few breaths, when Jiang Weihan's soul had completely entered the Jade Dream Realm, his body that had stayed in place suddenly opened his eyes. And stood up.
"This, it's true? You've come back from the entrance to the dream? "Brower. Bearskin asked in surprise.
"Nope. My soul soul is still in the dream, in the same place where we stood. Underneath this dream tree in the dream world. ”
Jiang Weihan replied in the display.
"But how is this possible!"
Unless Jiang Weihan has two souls, how can the soul still be awake when the soul enters the jade dream?
It's like a person is obviously dreaming, but his body can still communicate with people normally and accomplish anything that a normal person can do.
"Sleepwalking?" Brower asked tentatively.
"It's not pure sleepwalking." Jiang Weihan explained, "The Jade Dream should not have been forced to merge with the real world in this way, and it was Harvey who forced this process. It's like forcibly bringing the things in our dreams into reality, which is logically contradictory. ”
"Things in the Emerald Dream can indeed merge with the real world, but not in this way. Harveys may have taken some of the authority that Isera possessed. He was able to promote the fusion of dreams, but he didn't have the ability to control the steps before the blueprint was imported. What's more, he didn't have the energy needed to import the blueprints completely and normally. ”
Jiang Weihan saw that everyone basically looked like they were listening to heaven's books, so he had to directly say the conclusion: "In other words, his program is illegal and has produced logical errors." He can use this mistake to advance the process of fusing dreams with reality, and we can also use this mistake to carry out the state of the soul that I just did, when the soul enters the dream and is still awake in the real world. ”
That is to say. We can all split in two like you just did? Sal asked.
"That's right."
Now everyone understands.
Jiang Weihan patted his forehead, I am afraid that among the people present, except for those who have experienced the expedition to the outer regions, everyone else should not understand the true meaning behind the words "blueprint", "dream", "permission", and "fusion".
It's okay if you don't understand. If you know how to use it, you can use it!
This is the help that Kang Wei Han received from the Moon Goddess. Elune told him what to do, and he himself figured out why he could do it.
This is undoubtedly a good idea, originally everyone had to divide their forces to attack the nightmare army in reality and dreams at the same time. Now each of them is equivalent to two.
Khadgar suddenly realized: "Harveys can have both the real-world ontological will and the nightmare incarnation of dreams, it turns out that it is not his natural talent - in fact, we can all do it." Just master the method. ”
"So- can we wake up my teacher directly in the real world?" It was Broll who issued the question. Bearskin.
Before anyone else could answer, he patted himself on the head: "I'm dizzy." He doesn't know ...... method yet."
"So when we enter the dream realm, a lot of things can unfold smoothly."
Everyone breathed a sigh of relief at the thought that they could take Malfurion, a key figure, out of the Nightmare King's blockade without having to think hard about how to bring him out of the Nightmare King's blockade.
Jiang Weihan informed everyone of the method of splitting into two, and then said, "Let's act!" The sooner the better! ”
Mages meditate a lot and are the easiest type of people to get their souls into dreams through portals. In contrast, the fighters became the most difficult category.
Bane held back for a while, but he couldn't calm down, and when he peeked, Woking was also sweating profusely, obviously unsuccessful.
He peeked at the orc death knight Brooks not far away - this guy should be a warrior too, right? Bane thought.
But the silent and sturdy warrior soon came to Jiang Weihan's side—the place where the heroes whose souls had already entered the dream realm were staying.
Bane was dumbfounded, why would it be so easy for Brooks?
However, in this way, Jiang Weihan discovered the shortcomings of the method provided by Elune. Apparently the vast majority of people are unable to enter meditation to the point where the soul enters a dream. If only a small number of heroes, or mage heroes, can enter, then this method is not effective enough.
"How do I fix it?" He fell into deep thought.
——
On the other side, in the Jade Dream, Jiang Weihan can be regarded as a revisit. When he first crossed over, he first came to the dream world, and then entered the real world. This time he came in in a pure soul body way, and he had a different feeling.
The most intuitive thing is that the layer of green mist in the consciousness perception seems to be a little lighter. I don't know if it's because the dream realm merges with reality, and the green mist here has become thinner, or because there is a difference between the way the soul senses and the entity. He hoped it was the former. Because that means that Harveys, the Nightmare Incarnate, will be vulnerable in the process of merging.
"How dare you come in here and throw yourself into the net?" A voice containing anger came directly into Jiang Weihan's soul. There is no doubt that this is the strongest person in the Emerald Dream Realm now - the "Nightmare King" Harveys!
With his voice rang out. Jiang Weihan sensed that there were countless enemies surrounding him.
Harvey is driving his Nightmare minions to attack!
In the faint green mist, the twisted monster that crawled on all fours roared and rushed forward.
Jiang Weihan summoned his weapon. Stay at the exit of the portal. These nightmare minions are basically the embodiment of the nightmares of those who have fallen into a deep sleep, and they seem to be dancing with their teeth and claws, but in fact their power is limited.
The silver-white judgment of the Holy Flame Burning drew a shining blue arc in Jiang Weihan's hand, and within the fan of the Holy Flame's splashing, dozens of Nightmare Minions were purified into ashes.
In the real world, the same number of people are coming out of their nightmares and waking up at the same time.
Jiang Weihan silently estimated the strength of these nightmare minions, and then concluded that the nightmare minions in the dream were slightly weaker than those in the real world.
His speculation was confirmed, and the power of the "Nightmare King" in the dream world was reduced by the forced fusion of the real world!
More Nightmare minions pounced, but the portal glowed. Thrall's soul had entered, and then Morgana, Karthas, and the other heroes had entered, and for half an hour, all the heroes had gathered, except for those who still hadn't been able to complete the meditation.
"Let's go!" Jiang Weihan took the lead and rushed out.
"Where to go?"
"The Green Dragon's Lair!"
——
The Emerald Dream Realm is now almost entirely the domain of the Nightmare King, and the original owner, the Green Dragon Legion, can now only cower near the Mother Tree Garnier, relying on this ancient tree to fend off the Nightmare minions.
Garnier is a collection of original samples of all trees, and legend has it that the seeds of all trees came from Garnier, before they died. The trees do bear the seeds of all the trees of Azeroth.
The "Mother of the Wylings" Avena is Garnier's Guardian, an immortal demigod who died in battle over the Ancients. Because of her death, Garnier also died quickly. The Red Dragon Queen, Alexstrasa, created Nodashir from the oak seeds of this mother tree.
Naturally, this tree will be in the blueprint built by the Titans. The tallest leaf in the dream world became the last refuge of the Green Dragon Legion.
After the last unsuccessful attempt to break out of the dream by Malfurion, the Green Dragon Queen lost her spouse Illanicuus, but this is not the end. A day later, the Nightmare King began to use his powers to force fusion with the real world. Sensing this, Ysera fell into a complete panic.
She even had the idea of leading all the surviving green dragons to fight the Nightmare King. Even if there is little hope. But doing so will at least give you a glimmer of success. But if the fusion of dreams and reality is completed, then everything is over!
As the guardian of the Emerald Dream, Ysera was able to imagine what kind of disaster it would cause.
That would be no less than a catastrophe for the Burning Legion to destroy the Miè world!
"Don't worry, we still have hope!" Cenarius stopped Ysera, his adoptive mother.
"You sue me, where is there any hope? Wait a few more days, and the Nightmare King will succeed, and he will master all the secrets of the Emerald Dream and even the real world, and then every Qiē facility of the Titan will be polluted, and all the Elder Gods will be released! Do you know what that means! Ysera roared loudly, she had never been so out of shape in her life, and she had never spoken so seriously to Cenarius. But the current situation has brought her to the edge of madness, and one of her small mistakes can lead to the destruction of the world, which puts her with unimaginable pressure.
Both Cenarius and Malfurion looked at Ysera in silence.
"The end of time—the end of time will be born out of my mistakes......" Ysera said the words as if she had lost all her strength, and the massive green dragon's body could barely support her to stand.
She lowered her head slowly, two huge tears flowed from her eyes, and her erected pupils were somewhat scattered, making people feel her confusion and fear.
"The end of time?" This unfamiliar word made the two Senarius even more confused. If they knew anything about things like the Elder Gods, Titans, and the duties of the guardian dragons, the term was completely unfamiliar to them.
Ysera lay on the ground, and the dragon wing covered her head, and said blankly, "The remodeling system, the fault preservation system, and the blueprint system will all be contaminated by the Elder God...... They will be even more powerful if they steal imaginary energy through the guò system...... Even invincible! ”
"What should I do, what should I do......"
