Chapter 308: You Can't Kill Me!
The Hall of Rock was the first place to fall to the forces that attacked Ulduar, and the heroes, led by Brian, bear witness to the dusty secrets of history provided by the host of the Ancient Tribunal, and get a glimpse of the deeper stories behind this world.
When they couldn't get any more secrets here, they left the place and followed the host's prompts to the Hall of Lightning, ready to go to the end of Locan, the fallen King of Wisdom.
They were all gone, but Jiang Weihan quietly stayed behind - his mirror image was still with the attacking team. Just like the last time Blackmore was destroyed, trying to confuse the ancients was God's watch.
The reason for this was because he felt that there was more to the Ancient Court than just what Brian knew. Because Permissions - All of Titan's devices are related to permissions. Brian is not the owner of any level of clearance recognized by the Titan system, and it is not easy for him to get some superficial information from the host, and the real secret must still be hidden.
Jiang Weihan believes that if there is really a hidden secret, he will be able to solve it.
"Verify permissions." Jiang Weihan found the familiar bronze head in front of the host.
Accept Verification Request...... Scan starts...... Verify Identity: Titan; Verification Permission: The highest permission. ”
"Welcome to the Wèn Titan System Host Number JÙ Library!"
Hearing the host's response, Jiang Weihan breathed a sigh of relief.
He sorted out his thoughts and asked the questions he had been thinking about for a long time.
"How can the Elder Gods be destroyed?"
"Search number jù...... Analyzing...... Dear Titan, the Elder God is sealed inside the defense system, and to kill the Elder God, you need to first cancel the defense system and clear it from the planet itself. ”
Jiang Weihan's spirits perked up, "So the ancient gods can be killed, right?" ”
"Yes, the Elder Gods can be eliminated at the cost of all Titan systems being shut down and self-destructing, as well as destroying the planet's structure."
"In other words, to completely kill the Elder Gods, you have to shut down all the Titan systems first, right?"
"Yes."
"What happens if the Titan system is shut down?"
"Analyzing...... According to the comparison of the results in the library, the results of the system analysis are as follows: the planetary defense system will fail, and the threat from the Twisted Void will enter the planet without restrictions; Seals on the elemental and elder gods will be invalidated; Blueprint systems, security systems, and defense systems will be rendered useless or contaminated...... The analysis is complete. ”
Jiang Weihan suddenly hesitated.
According to the system's answer, if all Titan facilities are shut down, then Azeroth will undoubtedly become what it was like in the previous era when the Elder Gods were making waves - the Elder Gods broke the seal, elemental creatures wreaked havoc on the land, and what was even more terrifying was that without the "Firewall" system, the Burning Legion would be able to enter Azeroth completely and unrestricted.
This is the opportunity Kilgardan has always dreamed of. With his strength and the number of the Burning Legion, he could overwhelm Azeroth with a light pity.
Until the threat of the Burning Legion is eliminated, such an approach would be too risky.
However, this also has a huge advantage - that is, if the seal on the elements is broken, then there is no need to think about using druids and shamans to communicate with the stone mother to enter the earth elemental plane - it is estimated that many mages will be able to sense the elemental plane directly, and it will obviously be very easy to enter it.
However, the risk was still too great, Jiang Weihan temporarily suppressed this thought, and asked instead: "Is it possible to open only a part of the seal—for example, the seal on the earth elemental plane?" ”
"Querying...... The Titan's seals on the planet's elemental planes are connected to each other, and opening any one of them will cause the seals of the other planes to loosen. ”
"Can you reseal it after opening it briefly?"
"Yes."
Jiang Weihan immediately waved his fist, he finally got a better news! Even with this news alone, this trip is already worth it.
Among the four elemental planes of wind, earth, water, and fire, the master of the earth elemental plane, the "Stone Mother" Serrazan, and the lord of the water elemental plane, "Tide Hunter" Nepturon, have no ill will towards mortals - since being sealed, these elemental lords have escaped the control of the ancient gods.
However, the other two, Orakiel the Wind Rider and Ragnaros, the Lord of Flames, are more unstable, and their unstable hearts are still biased towards the Elder Gods.
Jiang Weihan assessed it in his heart and felt that these should be under control - because during the "Cataclysm" period in history, because of the reappearance of Deathwing, the distance between the elemental plane and the real world was originally narrowed, and Orakiel and Ragnaros also became the dungeon boss.
Even if one seal is broken, it is acceptable for all seals to be opened, as long as they can take this opportunity to destroy Deathwing in advance, the danger of the elemental lords is hardly a concern.
"How can I break the Elemental Seal?" Jiang Weihan hurriedly asked this question.
"The Elemental Plane Isolation System needs to be turned off on the operator interface."
The operation interface was in the hall where Jiang Weihan was now, and he suppressed the urge to open the Elemental Plane Seal now, and turned to ask other questions.
"Where is the Pantheon?"
This question "stumped" the system host, which retrieved the data for a while, and finally replied: "The storage data is insufficient and cannot be answered." ”
Jiang Weihan was a little disappointed, but he didn't care too much, asking this question was more to satisfy his curiosity.
"Is there anything in Titan Tech that is effective in resisting the corruption of the Elder Gods?"
"Retrieval data...... The second-generation Titan Creations have enhanced resistance to the Flesh Curse and can be produced through the Guò Creator Engine. ”
The second generation of creations refers to the creations produced by the Willforge when the Titans returned to Azeroth to solve the scourge of the Elder Gods. For example, the second generation of earth spirits and giants, and so on.
The Creator Engine is part of the Forge of Will, which can be seen as the Titan's creation device - simply put, if the Creator Engine is a production line, the Forge of Will is the entire factory.
Jiang Weihan thought for a moment and asked again, "Is there any way to immediately weaken all the contaminated people in Ulduar Prison?" ”
"You can open the defense mechanism through guò, block all the entrances to the passages, and isolate several large areas in partitions."
"This is good! Can I turn it on here? ”
"Yes, please execute the command on the operation interface!"
Jiang Weihan immediately rushed to the console, and after communicating with Almansur, he had already mastered how to use and operate the Titan's systems - it was basically impossible to treat them as computers, and the way it was encoded was actually obtained from Naru's password, which made it even more difficult for him to master all Naru passwords.
He typed the command on the interface, and then got the prompt: "Highest privilege activation, isolation system activation, defense mechanism activation!" ”
In front of him, a virtual image of Ulduar's interior appeared, and the walls of several large areas inside it suddenly appeared out of thin air, strictly separating all the areas inside, and now there were only a small number of enemies in each area, and now only he could operate the opening and closing of these isolation doors!
Even Lorcan can't operate this defense system right now!
Although as the leader of the Guardians, Lorcan has nominally the highest authority to manage the entire Ulduar prison, he is always only a servant of the Titans, and his highest authority is only the highest authority at the level of a Guardian servant.
Even the authority of the observer is higher than that of the guardian, let alone the highest titan authority like Jiang Weihan?
Now Lorcan can only drive the tainted forces of the Elder Gods to fight, and he can't join the other forces, which means that they will be crushed one by one, and they will have no power to resist!
If all the forces in Ulduar's prison were to be gathered at the gates, I am afraid that the Azeroth coalition would have to pay a very heavy price if they wanted to invade it - you must know that there are a large number of Titan creations, mechanical creations, Titan technology, weapons, equipment, as well as powerful giants and guardians, and even the servants of Yogsaron, whose combat effectiveness is definitely greater than that of the Scourge in its heyday, and even comparable to the Burning Legion - only one less invincible Akmund.
There is also an advantage to the closure of the various passages, that is, Lorcan in the Lightning Hall must not be able to escape - but Jiang Weihan still doesn't know that this guy has already left his lair one step ahead of time and went to Ulduar to coordinate and command the resistance forces.
After activating the defenses, Jiang Weihan asked one last question: "Are there any weapons or equipment in the prison that can inflict heavy damage on Yugsaron?" ”
"Searching...... No content was found that matched the search keyword. ”
"Well, it's me thinking too much." Jiang Weihan laughed, if there was, then this attack on Ulduar would be the same as cheating.
After confirming that nothing else was missing, Jiang Weihan immediately disappeared into the Rock Hall and went to meet the others. With the passages closed, the coalition must open the door if they want to attack Ulduar.
――
"Hell, this place is ...... It's kind of spectacular. ”
"That's right, the Titans are worthy of being the creators, but the guards here are too tough, and it's really hard to deal with!"
"Look, those translucent statues, will they suddenly stand up and join the fight?"
"It's always good to be careful, let's go and see!"
The Hall of Lightning lacked Loken's guards, and although there were still a few golems and giant generals commanding their minions in battle, they were quickly and completely defeated in the face of the overwhelmingly superior Azeroth coalition forces.
Although the progress was smooth, what they saw and heard along the way really refreshed the cognition of everyone who entered - what unfolded before everyone was the miracle of the Creator, an underground city between the mountains, it was magnificent, and the huge cloisters and all kinds of incredible devices gave people a sense of uncertainty.
The Explorers' Guild had excavated Audem before, but the underground city was the difference between a collapsed ruin and a newly built city. The most mundane thing that everyone mentions in their mouth is one word:
"Incredible!"
It's a pity that the owner of the Lightning Hall is not here. When they captured the place, their path was blocked by a huge gate.
"What to do? Knock it off or blast it? "Muladin in front of the way. Brass looked at his brother.
"This door looks like it was just closed, and Lorcan must have escaped from here." Brian made this guess after looking around, he knocked on the door with the hammer in his hand, and the vibrations and echoes from the door brought him a not-so-good message, "I'm afraid we have to use explosives, this door doesn't look so easy to break through by brute force." ”
At this time, Prince Liam stepped forward, he frowned, and some memories naturally came to his mind.
"This is Ulduar's isolation defenses, I'm afraid ordinary blasts won't be able to open it."
He guessed that it was supposed to be a hint from Tyr, and as the Lord of Order, he certainly knew the function of Ulduar's various facilities.
Brian said: "Then let's try it first, the explosives developed by the demolition expert Giggs of the Valoran Federation. The medicine is very powerful, and I think it should work. If the blast doesn't work, use spells! ”
Archaeology often comes across the need to fry. When the last year or two of medicine, Giggs studied the Hex blasting bomb. After Eliel joined the Explorers' Guild, he became famous among explorers and was widely acclaimed.
Of course, it is even more famous for its destructive power in war.
It was at this time that Jiang Weihan returned to the main body, he canceled the mirror spell, and saw that the explorers were filling the gate with explosives. medicine, immediately stepped forward to stop it.
"I can open these doors!" He stepped forward, and after verifying his identity, the door opened automatically.
Seeing this, Muradin laughed and said, "Haha, look, brother, our ally is better than bombing. The medicine works too much! ”
"It's a lot easier." Brian shrugged in agreement.
After passing through the Guò Lightning Hall, the gates of Ulduar Prison were finally completely opened.
Because Ulduar was separated by a quarantine facility, all the troops within it were isolated in small areas before they could complete their movements. If it were a real war, Lorcan would have been ordered to mobilize all his troops to assemble, take advantage of the terrain to resist, deplete the strength of the attackers, and finally lead everyone to Yugsaron's prison, where all enemies would fall into Yugsaron's crazy whispers and illusions, and become servants of the Elder Gods.
This was supposed to be Yugsaron's plan, but before it could be implemented, Ulduar's internal defense mechanism was activated, and all passages were closed, and if it was a little late, even Lorcan would be forced to stay in the Lightning Hall.
It is important to know that after the defense mechanism is activated, all teleportation mechanisms within Ulduar will be disabled. In that case, what awaits Lorcan will be a fate that will be overthrown by the heroes of Azeroth.
This should have been his fate, but this time he saw the opportunity quickly and escaped for the time being, but it was only temporary. Because now he is still stuck in the room of the Iron Council, unable to advance or retreat, he can only wait for the enemy to come to the door......
No one can save him now!
Ulduar's defense mechanism activated, turning a protracted battle into a standard dungeon process - Azeroth's elite troops pushed all the way through the square, and the mechanical legion left behind by Mimiron, the king of the creation zào, was completely wiped out by the heroes, the dragon legion, and the elite troops before it could last long, and the four leaders of the siege city, the Flame Behemoth, the Heartbreaker qì man XT002, the Furnace Giant, and the flying mount "Razor" of the former Storm King Thorim were all destroyed one by one.
When the door of Ulduar's antechamber was opened with a bang under Jiang Weihan's operation, Lorcan's servants hurriedly reported the news of the enemy's invasion to him, and he was silent for a while before he slowly spoke: "Iron Council, follow me to meet the enemy!" Destroy all the invaders! ”
――
The resistance of the Iron Council is weaker than that of the Siege City - because the mechanical creations in the Siege City are numerous, and they are all armed with Titan Technology, and the fight is like a big war, compared to the Iron Council, although elite, but the number is scarce, it cannot form a scale, and the hindrance to the heroes is certainly smaller.
Compared to the elite, the heroes who attacked Ulduar are much more elite than the Iron Council!
Jiang Weihan rushed to the front and killed several stone statuettes one after another, and at this moment, a huge roar was heard not far away. He could feel the rhythmic vibration of the ground beneath his feet, as if a giant beast was approaching.
After clearing out the enemy in front of him, Jiang Weihan motioned for everyone to stop and be on guard. Although he didn't think that there was any force in the front hall that could stop them from advancing under the isolation of the defense mechanism, he still had to be careful.
He could barely guess what the monster that was making the huge movement of the Maker was.
Soon a huge head popped out of his field of vision, and then soon revealed its full form - it was a giant over 100 meters tall! In comparison, even the dragon king who had turned into his original form was only a little bit in front of it!
Gargoyle-Cologarn, the boss who guards the Broken Walkway, wants to break its two arms in the game, knock it down and use its body as a bridge to the next location, but now this guy actually left his post without permission, left the Broken Walkway, and rushed to the front hall!
Then Jiang Weihan saw several other much smaller figures beside Cologarn, and immediately understood.
Because Loken, the Lord of Wisdom, Orria, the giantess, and the three guys of the Iron Council also rushed over.
Jiang Weihan didn't expect that Luo Ken, who had escaped from the Lightning Hall, was actually locked up in this place, and now he was preparing to fight to the death with his minions!
Even if he gathered all the rest of the people around him, he wouldn't necessarily be able to win, let alone just a handful of servants in the front chambers?
It's a battle that is decided before the battle begins!
Lorcan had been monitoring the advance of the Azeroth coalition, and he was terrified by the strength of this group of mortals, but he was not willing to let it go.
As the king of "wisdom", he wants to show his expertise in this area.
So his opening remarks amazed everyone:
"You can't kill me!" R1152
