Chapter 1033: The One Who Loves Water Drowns
Sarren had discussed Azeroth's time run with the barrage.
Note that Azeroth is not just referring to the planet Azeroth, but to the entire physical universe in general.
Due to the protection imposed by the Titans of the Pantheon, the main timeline of Azeroth is virtually unaffected by any external influences, unless someone surpasses Amansur, the father of the gods, in the magic of time.
The reason why the responsibility of guarding the plane was given to the Bronze Dragons was to allow them to maintain the many tributaries outside the main timeline, and try to avoid external factors from affecting these branch timelines, which could affect the stability of the main timeline of Azeroth.
And this is exactly what the self-proclaimed time-breaker Eternal Dragon wants to achieve.
It is true that with the blessing of the Titan's power, the backbone of Azeroth's time is extremely stable, but it is not completely unshakable.
For example, the main timeline of Azeroth is the trunk of the Nordasil, and the countless tendrils buried deep in the ground that support the World Tree are the branching timelines.
If the Eternal Dragon destroys enough of the branching timeline, it is theoretically possible to shake the backbone of time.
Of course, this is only theoretical.
No one knows exactly how much timeline needs to be broken to have a slight impact on the time backbone.
The more familiar people are with the theory of timelines, the more likely they are to be confused by the many possibilities of the endless branching world lines, and finally get into the horns of the bull and find it difficult to extricate themselves.
That's exactly what Nozdorm, the keeper of time, is.
The so-called Eternal Dragon King Mnoz is Nozdom himself in a future timeline.
Since being knighted as a guardian dragon by the Titans, Nozdorm has witnessed the many sacrifices the dragons have made to protect Azeroth in an infinite timeline.
As the Dragon Lord of Time, who wields the power of time, Nozdorm can call upon images of Azeroth's future at will.
Of course, it's the possibility of the future that takes place on the branch's timeline, and like Elisand, who also has the Eye of Almansour and is also on the tip of the bull's horns, he can't see the "real" future.
In these timelines, Nozdom has witnessed the betrayal of Nesario, the madness and fall of Malygos, the fall of Yonsera, and the death of Alexstasza and himself, and more than once.
After witnessing his own death and the destruction of Azeroth once again, Nozdom is physically and mentally exhausted in a future timeline, and he gradually begins to wonder about the mission he has fulfilled for tens of thousands of years.
Is it really meaningful for the bronze dragon to fight for his life's work? Is the future of the backbone timeline really irreversible?
Is it true that Nesario's betrayal can't be prevented in advance?
The Eternal Dragons who are dedicated to disrupting the normal flow of time were born, and those Eternal Dragons that changed their appearance were the future of Mnozdo, the bronze dragons who were just as skeptical as he was about the mission of time guardians.
This is also the reason why the Eternal Dragons, who are obviously less numerous, can be entangled with the Bronze Dragon Legion for a long time, because no one knows their past selves better than them.
In order to remove the threat of the Eternastron to the timeline, it is necessary to start from the source of their birth - to eliminate the Eternalsaurus Mnozdor, the future Nozdorm.
Since Sarren first left Quel'Thalas to join the world, after 10 years of hard work, he has rescued the Red Dragon Queen, smashed the plot of the Dream Demon King Savis, awakened Malygos, who had lost his mind for many years, and recovered the Black Dragon Queen Sinestra, who had been missing for many years.
The development of the red, green, blue, and black dragons has gradually returned to the right track, but the Bronze Dragon Legion is still competing with its future self, and the Bronze Dragon King Nozdorm has never been found.
As the time for the second invasion of the Burning Legion approaches, Sarjan wants to gather all the forces at his disposal to defend against the invasion of Akmund.
Considering that the cataclysm occurred long after the second invasion of the Burning Legion, the fallen demigods, including Malorn, should not have been able to catch up with the Akmund invasion.
The two Burning Legion commanders, Akmund and Kilgardan, have already touched the threshold of advancing to the rank of true god, and they are definitely not something that ordinary demigods can deal with.
Throughout Azeroth, without the moon god Elune, only the strongest demigod, the White Deer Malorn, can fight against them.
In addition, the great guardian of the heyday, Laiden, and the chief manager, Odin, may also have the strength to fight.
But now Laiden is still missing, and only entrusts part of his power to Sarena.
Odin was also sealed in Valhalla, and the other half of the seal imposed by him and Hela could not be lifted until Lorcan died.
Sarren wasn't going to pin all his hopes on Nodashir's self-detonation, as Azeroth's future was already very different from the original history because of his existence.
There is no guarantee that Akmund's pattern of action will be exactly the same as in the original history, and Sarean must consider the variables that may occur.
At the very least, he needed to prepare for the eventuality of how the defenders of Azeroth would defeat the mighty Burning Legion commander in case Akmund was thrown out of his predetermined destiny due to various factors.
The three strongest forces under the True God are unable to participate in the battle for various reasons, and the Titan Guardians are still busy fighting among themselves in the Storm Cliffs.
At the moment, there are only four guardian dragons that can be counted on in terms of combat power, except for Torola and Godring, who doesn't know if he will be able to recover at that time.
After years of recuperation, Alekstaza's vitality has long since been restored due to the large number of spawns.
With the demise of Savis, the king of the Dream Demons, the situation of the Emerald Dream has also improved greatly, and Yinsela can return to reality at any time.
The last knot in Malygos the Weaver had not yet been untied, but it didn't affect his combat power and mind much anymore.
After the betrayal of the Black Dragon King Nesario, the five guardian dragons lacked the most critical role to carry the line, and could only reluctantly be reluctantly undertaken by the extremely self-healing Alekstassa.
However, the Red Dragon Queen was originally responsible for healing and supporting output among the five guardian dragons, and forcing her to be a T would inevitably weaken other aspects of her functionality.
Tortora, a turtle demigod with extremely strong defense, can just fill this vacancy, although because of the influence of tacit understanding, he can't completely replace the role of Nesario, but he can finally form a formation of five demigods for Akmund to drink a pot.
However, now because of the absence of the Time Dragon King Nozdorm, the five demigods have fallen into an embarrassing four-in-one, and Sarayan does not dare to guarantee that after losing Nozdorm's time spell assistance, Akmund will be able to find the gaps in the formation and break them one by one.
"Hey~"
Sarean rubbed his brow in a headache.
Salian is self-aware, and he is not the material for research.
As the saying goes, the ruler is short, the inch is long, and professional things should be handed over to professional people to do.
Adhering to the concept that this amount is applicable, Sarayan will not force himself to do what he is not good at.
Originally, Sarren did not intend to personally intervene in the battle between the Bronze Dragon and the Eternal Dragon, after all, he only knew a little bit about the so-called timeline theory, and he could not withstand in-depth scrutiny.
The bronze dragon led by the dragon queen Sori Domi disappointed Sarren, after so many years, the bronze dragon who had a lot of information still failed to get Nozdorm back.
With a frown on his brow, he tapped his fingers lightly on his forehead and fell into deep thought, and Sarian didn't even know when Yin Sera had left the dream world.
"Time...... Otherwise, take the time to go to Sulama and ask Elisander. ”
……
For the next period of time, Saljan followed the "doctor's advice" of Yinsela and stayed in the Emerald Dream to repair his slightly damaged soul with peace of mind.
From time to time, Valera and Stella Gosza would take Gianna and Tina Gossa back to the physical world to inform the dream of Sarren, sending news from across the sea, and monitoring the events that were happening in the Eastern Kingdoms in this remote way.
With the sincere gesture of favor and repeated invitations, the original alliance member countries finally agreed to convene the alliance summit again after many years to discuss matters related to the rebuilding of the alliance.
With the full authority of the Sun King, Kael'thas, Foreign Secretary Carbonia has been following up on the matter throughout the process.
The Dark Gate's anomaly is still continuing, and its expansion law is basically in line with Dalaran's prediction, and there is not much fluctuation.
If nothing else, the Dark Gate should open around the end of the 15th year of the Black Gate to the beginning of the 16th year, and the error will not exceed 20 days.
When Salian entered the Emerald Dream Realm, it was already September of the 15th year of the Black Gate, and according to Yonsella's speculation, it would take him at least one and a half months to fully recover his health, that is, around November.
This time is already very urgent, considering that Kil'Gardan will most likely instruct Neozu to let the Scourge Legion attack at the same time as the invasion of the Burning Legion, leaving Salian with less than half a year to prepare.
"Half a year."
Lying lazily on the grass beside Sarren, and looking at the blue sky of the Emerald Dream with him, Onexia comforted disapprovingly: "Isn't there still half a year?" Why think of it as only half a year? ”
Sarian smiled: "Maybe I'm more pessimistic, I always think about the worst from the worst perspective. ”
"But...... You're right, there are still half a year, so let's try to complete all the preparations within this half year. ”
"Hula!"
Just as the two of them were lying lazily basking in the sun and chatting on the verdant grass of the Jade Dragon Holy Land, a violent air surge suddenly sounded in the distant sky.
"Boom!"
With a slight earthquake in a small area, Onexia and Salian, who looked up to observe the situation, saw the familiar green dragon that had landed on the island in the middle of the lake.
"Merinthra?"
Although he had been fishing and hiding in the Emerald Dragon Holy Land to cultivate his soul during this time, Sarian had not relaxed his intelligence gathering from the outside world, and he probably guessed the intention of Merinthera.
Sure enough, Merinthra didn't care about her mother's outing, and walked straight in the direction of Sarren and Onexia, and along the way, she transformed into a night elf with long turquoise hair.
"Sarena, we asked."
Merinsera said to Sarjan, who had already sat up, "Your speculation is correct, behind the Harpy is indeed the Dream Demon King Varosson who is instigating the bewitchment. ”
