Chapter 239: Northrend

"I'm alive again. Don't ask me why, I don't know. Gruul strode over. For the first time, the ogre demigod looked at Jiang Weihan with friendly eyes.

Jiang Weihan looked at Ansu, the oldest of all the people, who was sure to be able to explain this scene.

Ansu explained, "Because of the Shadow Realm - all creatures above the demigod level will enter the Shadow Realm after death. When the world is reshaped, they return to the real world. Of course, there are some secret methods that can also bring them back to life at great cost. ”

Jiang Weihan immediately understood. Aren't many of the demigods of Azeroth who died in the War of the Ancients have experienced this?

In the midst of the cataclysm, the "Waykeeper" Malone, the king of the forest, Cenarius, the crow demigod Avina, the wolf god Godring, and so on, were all reborn.

"And what about the non-demigod souls that entered it?" Jiang Weihan asked suddenly.

If the souls of ordinary people can also be stored in dreams, wouldn't they also have the opportunity to be resurrected?

"It's against the duty of a Dream Keeper." Ansu was silent for a moment, but still replied.

Jiang Weihan nodded, he had already got the answer.

He arranged for the people to set up camp and prepared for the Naru to test if the ship could take off.

At this moment, the Ranger General Sylvanas came over to find him: "Your Excellency Jiang Weihan, something special has happened in the forest. Her face turned a little strange, "I think you should go and see it." ”

After returning from the Shadow Realm to the remodeled New World, Sylvanas and the High Elf Ranger began scouting the neighborhood to determine if it was safe.

They are located in the ancient Teroka Forest, which is still a large area of primeval jungle. The situation is very complicated. Soon after, the Scout Team brought in some important news.

Jiang Weihan followed Sylvanas to the scene and saw a scene that shocked him:

He saw a giant Margolon fighting another Protoprimordial Thorn beast that was even bigger than it!

"Ancestral Thorn Beast?" Jiang Weihan's eyes widened. He had only fought against the Immortal Vanar who lived in the interior of the planet Draenor not long ago, and naturally knew that these Primordial Thorn Beasts were the descendants of the ancient god Vanar.

Doesn't their presence here mean that the Elder Gods have also been reshaped?

At this time, Ansu's slightly mocking voice sounded next to him:

"Remember the handwriting engraved on that stone tablet outside the Titan ShiyΓ n?"

"At the beginning of chaos. Draenor is a wild land with nothing but the eternal feud between the Creator Beast and the Destroyer. ”

He pronounced this sentence emphatically, and then looked at Margolon and the Primordial Beast, who were fighting fiercely: "The Savage Land, the Creation Beast, and the Destroyer are all here now. ”

Jiang Weihan said: "Margolon is the beast of creation? The Primordial Ancestor Thorn Beast is a destroyer? ”

He guessed this because the rock giant Margolon was clearly a Titan's creation. And the original ancestor thorn beast is undoubtedly the heir and servant of Varnar.

Titans are called creators, creators, or something in many worlds, and it's obviously normal for their creations to be called creation beasts.

"On the contrary," Ansu smiled slyly, "the Creation Beast mentioned on the stone tablet refers to the Ancestral Thorn Beast. The Saboteur refers to Margolon and its descendants, such as Goron and the Ogre. ”

"But why is that?" Jiang Weihan was puzzled, "Isn't that the inscription left by Rukma?" Why did she say that? She was not cursed. ”

"Who said it was left by Rukma? Because of that sun-shaped marker? Ansu had a smile in his eyes, "That's actually a forgery from Setai." He breaks into the Titan's room and kills Langdon, the Prime Minister's Guardian, inside. ”

Jiang Weihan quickly figured it out, "Because he was led by Vanar. Temptation, so write such a stele in praise of the ancient gods? So why did Rukma keep it? ”

"Because after the death of the Prime Minister's Guardian, she won't be able to enter there either."

Jiang Weihan finally understood. But these were inconsequential matters, and an even greater question lay before him: "Why have the worlds been reshaped, and the Elder Gods still inhabit Draenor?" ”

That's his biggest question.

Rukma melted the entire shattered world with the power of the Furnace of the Sun. Jiang Weihan saw Varnar burned to ashes with his own eyes in the Shadow Realm, and it was impossible for him to escape. But why is there still an ancient god in the reshaped world?

This question also stumped Ansu, and he could only answer: "Maybe it's because when the Titan created the blueprint, he only temporarily sealed Vanar!" Now that everything else in the blueprint has been reproduced, it is only natural that Varnar will reproduce as well. ”

This explanation is already very reasonable, but Jiang Weihan still has lingering doubts in his heart.

Now that the Titans are able to reshape a planet with their remodeling devices. So why can't you modify the blueprint a little bit to remove the Elder Gods from it?

If no one interferes. Countless years later, Draenor will still be what it used to be. Then Titan's reshaping system will work again. Generate another cycle.

But what's the point?

Only the ordinary creatures attached to this planet were destroyed, and the only things that remained were demigods, gods, Titans' devices, creations, and ...... Gods of the Ancients.

At this time, the heads-up between the Primordial Ancestor Thorn Beast and Margolon was nearing the end. Apparently the stone was still harder than the flesh, and the Primordial Thorn had a leg broken by Margolon and then pressed to the ground and beat violently.

The Primordial Beast screamed and shouted, "You will eventually be dominated by the Great Father!" All non-flesh creatures are heretical! Even the Titans will eventually lose this protracted war! ”

Margolon eventually snapped off the head of the Primordial Thorn Beast, strangling its mad cry in her throat.

Jiang Weihan was silent for a while, and then said in a low voice: "Let's go back!" ”

The words of the Primordial Ancestor Jing Beast kept echoing in his mind: All non-flesh and blood creations are heretics!

He was born on Earth, where all living things are naturally carbon-based, and all animals are flesh and blood. Silicon-based life has still not been proven to exist, while metallic life is if it counts.

But why would the Titans resist flesh and blood? And the Elder Gods are dedicated to fleshing and fleshing life in rock and metal?

Jiang Weihan had a strong premonition that if he could find the answer to this question, perhaps the essence of "the end of time" would be revealed.

――

Sephiel reverted to the High Elves the moment she passed through the Dark Gate. She knew that there must be many mortals waiting to ask her questions on the other side of the door, and she would have to deal with them before she could return to the Cave of Time. Report the situation in the Outlands to Nozdom the Eternals, or contact the other Bronze Dragons to relay the message.

"Do you know what you say?" Archmage Antonidas asked as he pressed Sephier's stern gaze like never before.

"I know very well, Your Excellency the Archmage. If you don't believe me, send someone to scout! Sephiel replied without fear.

As a bronze dragon, how could she, as a bronze dragon, be afraid of the momentum of a mortal?

This is the Dalaran Headquarters over the Cursed Lands. She was the first person to return from the Dark Gate in more than half a month. After learning the news. Many of the leaders came here in person to find out what was going on in the Outlands.

After Medivan reopened the Dark Gate, except for the Valoran Legion led by Karthas and Thrall's Orc Legion, only a very small number of other troops entered, and many people were frightened back by the terrifying hellfire on the other side of the Dark Gate.

In the days that followed, Command also sent a highly skilled team through the Dark Gate to reconnoiter the situation on the other side. But basically there is no return. The few who survived said that there was only the Boundless Hellfire Demon on the other side of the Dark Gate.

After half a month without news, there are many pessimistic voices in the alliance. They speculated that perhaps the expeditionary force had already suffered all of them.

However, the demons never made it to Azeroth through the Dark Gate, an anomaly that led many to believe that the Expeditionary Force should have caught the main force of the Burning Legion in the Outlands. As long as no demons come for a day, it proves that they are still fighting.

Originally, some people mentioned that yì should send more reinforcements, but the situation in Azeroth has not been optimistic recently, and such a mention has not been passed.

Now Sephier finally brought concrete information.

Some people are sad because of it, and some people are excited about it.

A huge fiery eagle with wings spread enough to cover the sky and the sun has destroyed the entire world, and may well have burned Kil'Gardan - they may not have to worry about the threat of the Burning Legion again!

If even demons can't survive this catastrophe. The expeditionary force is even less likely - they must face an equally sad truth: the expeditionary force is also completely annihilated.

"This is ridiculous!" Enraged, Darius stood up and shouted, "This is impossible! ”

"Calm down. General Darius. Admiral Dai Lin spoke up, "No one wants to see the destruction of the expeditionary force. I grieve for every soul who has died heroically. But their sacrifice was worth it, and all of Azeroth were given a new lease of life! ”

King Terenus said in a deep voice, "We should hurry up and confirm this news. If it is true, I will build statues, memorials, and all other buildings for the heroes to record their great deeds, and let people remember and sing about their great deeds forever. ”

King Varian whispered, "Yes, they also killed Akmund, the Great Demon who ruined the Eastern Kingdom. ”

Mavi, who represents the Night Elves. Shadow Song is also in the meeting. She began, "If that's true, then they are great heroes indeedβ€”no one knows the power of Akmund better than us Night Elves." In order to destroy him. Any sacrifice is worth it. ”

The High Elf King Anastarian smiled mockingly, "Indeed, but did the Night Elves sacrifice anything in this war?" ”

The High Elves and the Night Elves have always been at odds. Seeing Mavi's pretentious gesture, Anastarian couldn't help but sneer.

"Absolutely!" Mavi snorted coldly, "We were the ones who saved the world during the War of the Ancients!" Moreover, didn't Illidan also join the Outland Alliance? ”

Thinking of Illidan, Mavi was in a good mood and barely paid attention to Anastarian's provocations.

If the vase-like High Elf (Sephiel) was telling the truth, then Illidan must have diedβ€”she just regretted not being able to slash the prisoner herself; Akmund, who had caused great suffering to their Night Elves, also died; It is likely that Kil Gardan, another great demon no less than Akmund, is also dead.

As long as the demons in the Felwood Forest can be eliminated, the Night Elves will be at peace again - as for Malfurion, who is still asleep? It's better if he doesn't wake up, and let the hell, weak druids sleep to death!

The thought of Tyrande, who might secretly weep and be sad every night. Mavi's mood changed for the better.

"Looks like you're all getting ready for the funeral." Darius left his seat with a mocking voice and strode out, the cold voice continuing to hear, "Our commander will not die!" ”

Prince Kael'thas was a little distracted, and he shook his head: "I don't believe that Jiang would die like thisβ€”he is so young, wise, and noble. He also knew so many secrets. I guess he must have some means to save his life? ”

"The future has changed." Anna's voice came in a lowered voice.

Her feelings became very complicated. She looked at the High Elf who had brought the news, and thought that if everything was true, Jiang Weihan's actions would be very meaningful.

He knows part of the future and works hard to change it.

He did it. Countless people in the Eastern Kingdoms have survived because of him.

At one point, Anna was convinced that Azeroth had no other power to destroy Akmund than the wrath of Nodashir.

But Sefir was very sure to tell the crowd that Jiang Weihan led a group of heroes and powerful elemental lords and other demigods to inflict heavy losses on Akmund in a miraculous battle, and killed him completely in the ensuing operation.

She put on her hood and walked out, whispering again, "The future has changed." ”

I am the only one left who knows the future. I should also actively change the future. Reduce or avoid the trauma caused by disasters to the world. She said to herself in her heart.

'No, there's another person. Anna suddenly realized that during the battle of Silvermoon City, the Lich King Arthas seemed to have fled.

――

It had now been a few months since the Battle of Silvermoon City, and Arthas had already arrived in Northrend. At first, he feared that his betrayal would provoke strong retaliation from Akmund. However, this fear has not materialized.

As he had in the past, Akmund didn't care at all about a "small role" like him.

Arthas and Annatheron, the Dreadlord who also betrayed his master, got together naturally.

At first, Annetheron felt that his status was much higher than that of Alsace, and wanted the other party to serve him as his master. However, Annetheron was not strong enough to suppress Arthas, and Arthas, who had just escaped Akmund, would never regard a Dreadlord as his master.

Arthas showed his power to the Dreadlord and uttered some "prophecies" about Akmund's death, and eventually the Dreadlord surrendered to him and offered his loyalty.

Because the Floating Fortress destroyed a large part of it in the first place, Akmund was able to take only a small half of the Scourge Legion's strength with him when he went to the Sunwell. More of the undead are still in Northrend. Stay at Icecrown Fortress.

Arthas knew that as long as he regained control of these undead, he would have the capital to make a comeback. However, because of Karthus's existence, his control over the undead was very low. It is only possible to control a certain number of undead in a small area. It is undoubtedly a very difficult job to completely occupy the base camp of Icecrown Fortress.

Having managed to amass less than 10,000 undead troops, Arthas couldn't stand the inefficiency, and he targeted native creatures such as the Walrus, Spider-Men, Ice Dwarves, Iron Dwarves, and the like who had joined the Silver Covenant and escaped the purge of Akmund.

Akmund didn't know the guys' habits, but Arthas knew very well.

Arthas named this undead force that belonged to him the "Damned Army". Just as he was about to embark on his grand cause, an elite paladin with just over three hundred men appeared out of nowhere, and began to attack the undead army in the land of Northrend under the banner of the "Ash Judgment Army".

This force is sparsely numbered. But the power is not to be underestimated. The leading paladin holds a sword with a golden spine and a silver blade, and is infused with the power of holy light. The power exerted is no less than that of the Ash Messenger in the hands of the High Lord of Mograine!

And every member of this force is a paladin who is born to restrain the undead!

The commander of this force was Liam of Gilneis. Who else could it be other than Prince Greymane?

Liam, who has completed his self-redemption, is like having been given a new lease of life.

Liam was given the power of the Light as never before, and no evil foe could stop his attacks. The Sword of the Guardian of Order made him even more powerful. He used this sword to purify countless evil undead and demons!

And the sword has some magical power - it can transform a devout Light warrior into a paladin!

After discovering this, it didn't take long for Prince Liam to build this paladin army loyal to him and the Holy Light - the Ash Inquisitors!

Liam vaguely guessed the identity of the mysterious cloaked man who gave him the sword, and that name gave him infinite strength, giving him the courage to face any difficulties and clear all obstacles.

The Lord of Order - Tyr.

It had to be him!

With such strength and a silver arm, Liam can't think of anyone else other than the great Tyr.

"Prince Liam, we've found Arthas!" Lord Hervel strode over, with an excited look on his face, and loudly brought the news to their leader.

Liam Huo Ran looked up, his eyes shining like substance: "Where?" ”

"Crystal Song Forest! He's heading in the direction of the Stormcrags with a group of evil minions! ”

Liam immediately shouted, "Assemble, Ash Judge!" The time has come for justice to be done! ”

The paladins in the camp immediately began to assemble their equipment.

Liam pulled out the Guardian of Order, his sword shining brightly in the sun's rays: "Towards the Storm Cliffs, forward!" (To be continued) R466
