Chapter 286: Sargeras's betrayal
Vera has tasked Sargeras and Al-Mansour with investigating the invasion of reality by monsters in the game world. + Topline novel, www.herself, focused on how to deal with these invading monsters.
She used her authority to create a lot of super weapons to arm the fighters who had been produced, and sent them to destroy those monsters. "Titan" Jiang Weihan is the supreme leader of these armed forces.
Jiang Weihan couldn't help but have a very strange feeling in his heart when he saw an identical self leading the mechanical army to fight against the game monsters. He had seen the process of creating the three highest-authority Titans before - although the "Jiang Weihan" in front of him was a real model, and the skin and the like were all bionic designs, the inside was still cutting-edge technological electronic components, and there was no essential difference between it and a platinum machine like Almansur.
He almost felt the urge to dissect himself himself—to see if he was flesh or machine, to see if he was a real, time-traveling person from 21st-century Earth, or a Titan instilled with a time-traveling memory.
After the fighter army was armed with fantasy technology, its combat effectiveness was unimaginably strong, but this did not give mankind the advantage of war. The monsters seem to be endless, killing a batch, and more will pop up, no matter how you can't kill them all! What's even more terrifying is that the further they go, the more powerful they become, and Wei Rui has to build more combat machines and stronger weapons to fight them!
These monsters are always evolving!
In 2447, a message came from the Titan platform of Guò in Omansur, and he and Sargeras finally found the cause of the monster invasion after investigation: these monsters were actually attacked by a cosmic virus parasitic manipulation. It is a concrete, unknown source virus, and their characteristic is that they can absorb imaginary energy and produce evolution.
All game worlds are built with imaginary energy. These viruses have an almost endless source of energy. They cannibalize the real game world and grow inexorably.
To destroy this monster. There may be only one way - to clear the world built by all imaginary energy and restore one qiē to its original state!
See here. Jiang Weihan naturally thought of Vanar. The primordial god of the ancients confirmed that when the power to reshape the world was activated, the power of destruction in the universe began to grow.
Obviously, the imaginary energy that reshaped Draenor was the murderer who allowed the Elder Gods to develop and spread. In other words, no matter what, there will come a time in the future when the entire World of Warcraft will be completely invaded by the Elder Gods.
"This is the nature of the end of time?" He couldn't help but think.
——
This is a very frightening discovery. Not only are those game worlds built by imaginary energy, but in fact, in addition to the original earth of the imaginary world, the "fairyland on earth" created by Wei Rui and her team - the multi-layered magnificent world is actually built by imaginary energy.
If all traces were to be erased, it would mean that humanity would lose its eternal life. Lose the one they have under the special protection rules of this world! They must leave this world, return to the original earth, continue to live their original life, and continue to be ordinary people!
When people have enjoyed eternal life and unimaginable privileges, how many people are willing to accept ordinary life and accept the threat of birth, old age, sickness and death to them?
Hardly anyone wants that.
One can only hope that the invasion will be put to rest once the game world is completely formatted.
The government and the Titan Heart did so. They formatted the vast majority of the game world.
Warhammer, Star Wars, Future Fantasy, Dota. "Fallout", "Diablo", "StarCraft", "Fantasy Journey to the West". Call of Duty, Ancient Ages......
Countless classic remastered and innovative game worlds have been completely formatted, and all the planets and creatures in it, or the planets and creatures that really exist because of the imaginary number energy, are completely annihilated after the background command is given. Only the last World of Warcraft and League of Legends remain spared for the time being.
Not because these two are the most popular, but because the two Titans with the highest authority: Sargeras and Al-Mansur are still in these two worlds. No one has more authority than them to remove it, and neither does Wei Rui.
Anyway. It is confirmed that such behavior works.
When the countless game worlds completely disappeared, the monsters that invaded the real world suddenly decreased by half. In the end, only the Elder Gods and Void Monsters remained on the attack. By the time Al-Mansour and Sargeras come out, it is likely that they will all be contained.
But before the two highest-authority Titans appeared, all the humans in the imaginary world were suddenly attacked by weakness and disease, and they had to be attacked and killed by monsters in the game world before they were brain dead, and now even if people do nothing, they have lost their health, and everyone feels that they are getting weaker and weaker.
The protection rules that Wei Rui had set at the beginning had collapsed on a larger scale, and the rules that had allowed humans to maintain immortality were no longer working correctly.
The fear of the unknown enveloped all human beings, and some began to evacuate the imaginary space and return to their original earth. Then they find themselves healthy again!
From this moment on, the imaginary space changed from a paradise on earth to a hell full of danger and fear!
In 2449, the second great migration began. After more than 40 years, the vast majority of human beings have returned to their original earth.
In order to prevent the monsters of the imaginary world from invading the real world, they completely shut down the Titan system, completely closing the connection channel between the imaginary space and the real world.
Only a very small number of people remain in the imaginary world, studying the real reason for the occurrence of the qiē accident, and looking for a way to completely solve the invasion of monsters in the imaginary world.
Jiang Weihan saw that Wei Rui and Xingli had been staying in the imaginary world, and they formatted all the "fairyland on earth" in the upper echelons of the imaginary world, and together with other people who stayed in the imaginary world, they lived in seclusion on the imaginary earth where zài originally existed, and continued their research. "Titan" Jiang Weihan protects them because they don't belong to this world in the first place, when the original protection rules no longer work. There are still embodied virus monsters that often appear out of thin air to attack these people left behind in the imaginary world.
They identified all the humans who did not belong to this imaginary world in the first place. Think of them as enemies that must be eliminated, but without disturbing the creatures who already live in this world.
Vanar's original words once again echoed in Jiang Weihan's ears:
"I don't know when. The power of destruction appeared silently. Some of the Elder Gods were corrupted by this irresistible force, and they went mad and began to murder all life on the planet where the gods of their home planet had created, including the messengers of the gods. ”
"After this, the gods used their technology to take the home planet to an unknown dimension, completely closing themselves. They then created the Titans and gave them the task of destroying and sealing the Elder Gods, in an attempt to bring the universe back into order. ”
The "Divine Messenger" is undoubtedly the player. The complete closure of the home planet is also completely in line with the scene that Jiang Weihan is seeing now. Wei Rui did create the Titan, and the Titan has always fulfilled the duty of exterminating and sealing the Elder God in the World of Warcraft. Trying to put the universe back in order.
Jiang Weihan has experienced so many things in the World of Warcraft, but he didn't expect that the only one who told him the truth about the world in the end was this ancient god!
The last screen of the video is that Wei Rui takes out the number jù disk representing the world of League of Legends, and then closes the connection port of World of Warcraft.
At this point, only a dark void remained in front of Jiang Weihan's eyes.
"What's going on behind the scenes? How did I get into this world? He looked at Almansour and couldn't help but ask.
"I don't know. The flow of information I received was interrupted here. Almansur shook his head, he looked at Jiang Weihan, "I only know that you were originally by Wei Rui's side to protect her, I think she must have sent you to the World of Warcraft." What is the specific mission? Only you will know it yourself. ”
Jiang Weihan was very clear about his past, and he felt that he could not be the machine that was separated from the heart of Sargeras in this image that lasted for hundreds of years.
"Then are you sure I'm that Jiang Weihan?" He was referring to the Titan who was tied with Al-Mansur for the top three highest authorities.
Al-Mansour nodded earnestly: "I think so." ”
"How is it judged?" Jiang Weihan asked in his heart: Can't you see that I am a time-traveler from the earth?
Almansur replied sharply, "Permissions - you do have all the permissions of my brother, 'Titan' Jiang Weihan. No one can fake this. ”
Permissions...... All right. I know. Jiang Weihan couldn't refute this at all.
He knew that he must have a close relationship with that "Titan" Jiang Weihan, and perhaps this relationship was the reason why he would travel from Earth to World of Warcraft.
And—speaking of which, it was he himself who brought the Heart of Sargeras to Earth in the first place. The occurrence of this subsequent qiē is inextricably linked to him.
But the problem is that he doesn't know what kind of special mission he has with him after crossing over. Even before he saw this image, he had no idea that the world was hiding such a complex secret.
Jiang Weihan is not ready to continue to dwell on the issue of his identity. It no longer matters whether it is "Titan" Jiang Weihan or not. Now that he's in World of Warcraft, it's better to figure out the current situation first - Almansur must know what he should and shouldn't do.
He asked, "So what time is it?" And the timeline I'm in, and the relationship between you and Sargeras, and this World of Warcraft...... I have a whole bunch of questions that I haven't figured out yet. ”
"That's exactly what I'm going to tell you next." Al-Mansur replied, "I lost contact with Vervi in 2450. As for what the real world is, if the time flow rate hadn't changed since the port was closed, it would have been 2469 by now. ”
Jiang Weihan nodded, signaled understanding, and asked the other party to continue.
"Now you already know that World of Warcraft itself is a game world, and although it has been compiled by the Titan platform, it is already a real world that essentially exists in Zài, but it still operates according to the rules set when it was first created - the timeline is one of the most basic rules."
"Essentially, the world's so-called timeline is not a line or a mesh. When the game was developed, the company offered players two ways to play: one was the canonical script. That is, in the 21st century, Blizzard provides the classic gameplay. Players participate in a pre-defined course of history. One qiē is strictly limited; The other is a free script - where players play as historical figures and interpret history freely. ”
Jiang Weihan listened to Almansour say the words "game", "Blizzard", "player", "World of Warcraft" and so on. I couldn't help but feel a sense of disobedience, as if he was not the "father of the gods" of the Pantheon, but a like-minded person who discussed the plot of World of Warcraft together.
However, his narration is very easy to understand, and when Jiang Weihan heard that in the "free script", when the player played the role of the plot character, he immediately thought of those situations in other timelines where the history and the official history were very different - could it be that these worlds were originally caused by the experience of the players in the past to change history?
Almansur glanced at him, as if he directly saw his inner thoughts: "You're right, those Blackmore worlds that cultivated Thrall to overthrow Lordaeron, Arthas did not fall but became a great hero to save the world, and even Gianna opened the harem and collected Alsace, Kael'thas, Karegos and so on...... It's all created by players under the free script. ”
Jiang Weihan couldn't help but laugh out loud when he heard that Gianna was opening the harem in reverse. This is definitely something that only a veteran rotten female player can do. And Almansur actually said this in a complaining tone. It also completely refreshed his perception of this titan.
He stopped laughing, relating his current situation and asked, "So the timeline I'm in now is also a free script?" ”
"Yes."
"And what about the timelines I traveled with Chromie before? What is that? ”
"Those are phantoms - you'll follow Chromie through the game, just like triggering the hidden quests in the game, and coming to these worlds is a necessary step in the hidden story quests. Those worlds are also based on what you already know from the timeline you're in - so you'll see all the ones on the web-like timeline as if they were destined - it's not my conspiracy, it's not the Pantheon or the Titans' conspiracy, it's the underlying premise of the game itself. ”
Hearing Almansur's explanation, Jiang Weihan suddenly realized - sure enough. Those past predestined the future, the future pushed back the past, those complex causal theories and fatalisms, are actually just "settings".
Although the free script claims to be "free", it is not completely free. He'll get the traversal mission. The system itself is set up to complete the cause and effect of the Battle of the Frozen Throne that took place before. Blackmore will be destined to become the king, which is also the need of the plot.
Jiang Weihan is currently unable to compete with the "system setting".
He was a little embarrassed - the three hourglasses he had destroyed in the Cavern of Time, and the web-like timelines that Time Realm had seen not long ago that challenged his worldview. I thought that a qiē was a conspiracy of the Titans, but I didn't expect it to be crooked - after being debunked by Al-Mansur. He blushed a little at the time.
After getting out of the horns of the original incomprehensible thinking, Jiang Weihan only felt that his eyes suddenly opened up. The whole world was very different because of what I saw and heard this time.
"And then?" He urged Al-Mansour.
"The problem with the timeline is basically clear compared to you. Then it's time to talk about my disagreement with Sargeras. The smile on Amansur's face faded at the mention of the name.
"We three Titans are the only ones who have reached the truth of this world, and they are also the ones with the highest authority. When Sargeras and I were sent to find the root of the Elder Gods' invasion, we had a different division of labor. I am responsible for inspecting and maintaining the Titan Platform system, and he is responsible for inventorying, modifying, and deleting the number of infected people in the affected system. So specifically in the game world, I can retrieve, maintain, modify, and restore all the original numbers through the background. As you can see, all of the Titan systems and Titan creations are basically based on my permissions. ”
Jiang Weihan nodded in understanding.
Almansour continued: "Sargeras's authority is to troubleshoot, destroy, and delete anomalous numbers - you can understand that he has a GM account, but with a higher authority. Theoretically, he could destroy all the numbers he deemed illegal. As long as he retrieves the data or model and deletes it, he can destroy the corresponding qiē: planets, galaxies, and gods...... All kinds of qiē are all kinds of qiē. ”
Retrieve the model - Jiang Weihan immediately thought of the spell that Akmund used to destroy Miè Dalaran, so he asked, "Akmund was able to destroy Miè Dalaran directly on the sand table because of this, right?" ”
"Yes, exactly. He and Kilgardan, as Sargeras's deputies, were given a portion of the authority. It's like I've given some of my rights to the Titans. ”
Almansour nodded in confirmation, then continued: "When the connection port between World of Warcraft and the real world was closed, the world began to operate freely. We can no longer get outside support, so I suggest that we should rely on the world itself to create creatures to help us defend against the Elder Gods. That's what I was up to, and so the Pantheon began its journey of creation. Sargeras, on the other hand, is in charge of fighting against the Elder Gods who have appeared, as well as creatures from the library such as our canonical enemy, the Abyssal Demon. ”
"Later we found that every time we used imaginary energy to maintain these worlds, the overall amount of the Elder Gods increased a little. This is very bad for us in the future. Therefore, Sagrasti yì completely destroyed all the worlds that had been transformed, leaving the ancient gods without the source of parasitism. However, after experimentation, I found that even if I did this, the power of the Elder God would still increase. ”
“…… Because in the lowest setting of World of Warcraft, there is a description of 'the end of time'. Whether it's a freelance script or a classic script, the world will experience this moment in the end. Whatever we do, as long as this universe exists, that day will inevitably come. ”
Speaking of this, Amansur sighed. Then an argument ensued between us - Sargeras decided that mortals in the setting could not be more powerful and capable of fighting the Elder Gods than ourselves, and that it was better to destroy the underlying structure of the world and change the course of the future. And the plot I analyzed from the underlying structure told me that the creatures in these settings can indeed have unimaginable power. And then what happened, you know-"
"Sargeras's betrayal?" Jiang Weihan was thoughtful.
"Yes."
"Was his betrayal set or something else?" Jiang Weihan couldn't help but ask, "Also, since he is so strong, why did he die?" And the battle in the Warped Void...... He didn't seem to know me. ”
Hearing Al-Mansour's story, he had a lot of questions.
In the classic plot, there is such a scene - the gradual disagreement between Sargeras and the Pantheon. He begins to doubt his mission and eventually falls, forming the Burning Legion and embarking on a quest to destroy the Miè universe.
Jiang Weihan is a little unclear, is it true that this real World of Warcraft must also have such a scene to meet the "setting"?
"The reason for his betrayal may be both." Al-Mansour replied. "We do have disagreements, and the World of Warcraft plot sets that in mind. So when the divergence happened, we all realized it and went along with the change. Go your separate way and see who is right in the end. ”
He looked at Jiang Weihan: "As for why he died-the first is because Azeroth in the canonical plot is very important, and I can't let him use this place as a target to destroy Miè, so I gave him a little trouble; Second, because of the setting, he has such a catastrophe and will definitely return in the future. And he doesn't know you because the free script you're in is just a clone of him. ”
Jiang Weihan was speechless: "But-how can you say that your authority should be higher than the personnel who originally set up this world, right?" Will this kind of setting still constrain you? Jiang Weihan was a little incomprehensible. Normally, the three of them are the real owners of the highest authority, can the company that developed this game still rely on the game setting to restrain them?
You must know that when I was ready to format all the game worlds, I couldn't format World of Warcraft and League of Legends because of the existence of these two. At the same time, he was also a little curious, wondering what kind of role Almansour and Sargeras played in the game world of League of Legends? (To be continued......) R527
