Chapter 1311: Onexia's Scheme
Although Loken's decision-making ability has deteriorated due to his mentality, he is still the Titan Guardian who was once known as the King of Wisdom, and his brain is very flexible.
After the turmoil caused by the High Elves and Kul Tiras's arrival in Northrend, the situation on the Arctic continent has long since stabilized.
After years of hard work, Kurtilas finally defeated the Dragons, and took over Howling Fjord, the warmest climate in Northrend.
The High Elves, on the other hand, used the energy drained from the Sun Well, combined with the magic net system left over from the old Shandara City, to build the entire Jingge Forest into an impregnable group of fortresses.
Due to the existence of the castrated version of the Bandi Norrell Enchantment, the lattice forest, which originally had a relatively cold climate, can also be like spring all year round like the Yongge Forest.
In recent years, many High Elves who have struggled to find promotion opportunities in their homeland have made their way north to Northrend, hoping to make a name for themselves in this cold north.
The Sun King, Kael'thas, is also happy to see this, after all, the more populous the Crystal Song Forest, the more beneficial it will be to the development of New Shandara City.
There are three areas bordering the Storm Crags, one is Zudak, the lair of the Dhakarai trolls, the Crystal Song Forest is occupied by the High Elves, and finally the Icecrown Glacier, which is so cold that no living person dares to settle it.
With the Scourge gone, the once-bustling Icecrown Glacier has returned to its former silence.
Because the glacier region is too cold and the resources are very poor, Lorcan's steel army will not have their eyes on this strategically worthless place, even if they are not afraid of the cold.
Of course, one of the reasons is also because the High Elves have built the iron-walled dam facing Icecrown Glacier too strong, and Lorcan can't find a chance to sneak up if he wants to make a detour.
Excluding Icecrown, the only hostile forces that Lorcan needs to face at the same time are the Dhakari Trolls and the High Elves.
The civil war with the Titan Creations led by Laiden is about to begin, and of course Loken will also think of eliminating unrest first.
Then, the best way is to provoke the already conflicted High Elves and the Dhakara trolls to fight again, so that they have no time to participate in the battle of Ulduar.
Under Loken's covert arrangement, the Dhakarlai troll obtained news of the Titan's civil war through a "serendipitous" chance.
Malak, the Lord of Frost, has been trying to reclaim the fortress of Daxalon and a small half of the territory of Dakzaron, which was stolen by the High Elves.
It was at this time that the Zandala messengers with ulterior motives also came to Zudak with the orders of the Prophet Zur.
After some private discussions, the two sides hit it off.
Zandala, for its part, promised to give all support to the Dhakarai Empire except direct military assistance.
This kind of blank check sounds unreliable to Sarren, but after a few years of cultivation, Dhaka really believes it.
Zandala wasn't entirely fooling Malak, either.
They plan to send a Loa, who is part of the Zendalar Empire, to Northrend to assist Dhaka, as well as military advisors to help them with advice and provide sufficient logistical supplies for Dhaka in case of war.
Originally, Zur's first target was Cirik the Bat, but due to Sarean's troubles on Zendara Island, Hirik's rebellion and killing disrupted Zur's plans.
Zur's second target, Kagwa, unfortunately went into hibernation, and Toga, the third target, was too injured to move.
Bonsandy?
The old and sturdy Zur had already realized that Rastaha was going to replace Rastaha with Bonsandy, and he certainly wouldn't be fighting the god-king who was deliberately pretending to be crazy and stupid at this time.
Zur was reluctant to use Loa, who belonged directly to Zandala, and Nazmir had no play on his side, so he could only beat the abacus to the Wharton Desert next door.
The saber-toothed tiger Jibble lost all of his followers in a great battle with the Naga hundreds of years ago.
The Naga, subordinate to Enzos, cast a curse on the souls of the Jibre devotees, trapping them in a battle that can never be won.
Until these poor souls are freed, Gible vows that he will not accept new followers, and he does not hesitate to refuse Zur's invitation to go out and help.
In desperation, Zur set his sights on Akunda, the Thunder Lizard.
However, to Zur's dismay, Akunda's not-so-brained believers have been playing riddles around the bend with him, just not allowing him to meet Akunda in person.
In the end, Zur had no choice but to turn to Zandaraloa, a direct descendant of the Holy Mountain, and after some discussion, he finally chose the honest and honest dinosaur Tokari.
Tokari is known by the Trolls of Zandalar as a walking mountain, a wandering fortress.
There is never only the wrong name, not the wrong title.
From these two titles, it can be seen that the dinosaur Loatokali has extremely strong defense and impact.
Due to his relatively low-key personality, Tokari is not a standout among Zandalara's many Loas, but no one will ignore his contributions to Zandalara.
"Tokali......"
Knowing that it was Loa, the dinosaur, who had been sent by Zandalar to assist Dhaka in the Empire, Salian frowned slightly.
"Woking's intelligence mentions Tokari, the mother of dinosaurs, and her presence means that we must pay special attention to the powerful Tokali offspring in the war with Dhakalai."
"That Zur guy is really not worrying."
Speaking of the crazy Prophet Zur, Sarean's expression became gloomy.
Onexia touched her chin thoughtfully, "Why don't we do something for them behind Zandalar too?" lest they keep reaching out and interfering in the affairs of other troll empires. β
Salian asked with interest, "Do you have a plan?" β
Onexia nodded, "There's a rough idea that we came up with when we were assisting the snake people in quelling the civil unrest. β
Sarena suddenly became interested: "Oh? Let's hear it. β
As the Blood Trolls are on the wane, there are fewer and fewer forces that can threaten the rear of Zandalara.
The snake men who quelled internal conflicts may be counted as one, but Sarjan didn't want them to put the cart before the horse and let go of their duties as caretaker of Atu Aman and Zandalar to the death, and they probably wouldn't have made the decision to provoke enemies for themselves.
"Actually, you mentioned it before." Onexia said solemnly: "Jibul and Akunda, these two Loa have their own reasons behind their decline. β
"Sursis mentioned to me earlier that Akunda has not been seen in front of people for a long time, and according to information from the snake scouts, it seems that he was plotted and robbed of his power by traitors among his followers."
"Coincidentally, this traitor happens to be from Zandalara."
Onexia continued to explain meaningfully, "As you know, I had some contact with the fox people before. β
"Compared to the Setaris, who believe in snake people, the fox people do not have the support of Loa behind them, which is the main reason for their low status on Zandalar Island."
"If we can help Akunda set things right, banish his rebellious followers from Zandalara, and then help the fox and Akunda build bridges......"
Sarjan's eyes lit up: "Even if the Fox People and Akunda will not take the initiative to oppose Zandalara, Zur will definitely increase his attention to the Wharton Desert and reduce his support for the Dhakarai Empire in disguise?" β
"That's right." This is not the end of Onexia's plan: "Second, we can contact Azhara and ask her to send a detachment to land on the Wharton coastline. β
"I've taken the time to ask the Ancestral Turtle Tribe on the shores of the Wharton Sea, and if their description is correct, the Naga who attacked the Jibur Cultists should be the Void Naga under the command of Enzos."
"Hmm......" Sarian said with a slight squint of eyes, "Azhara should be happy to weaken Enzos's power, and we can also take this opportunity to free the souls of Gibr's cursed believers and gain his friendship." β
"Jibul, who has lost all his followers, will inevitably need a new group of believers after untying his heart, Oni, which race are you going to introduce to him?"
Onexia spread her hands: "I haven't thought about it yet, or ...... Or fox and snake people? β
"There should be nothing wrong with the fox people, snake people ......" Salian asked with some hesitation, "Are you sure that their higher-ups will agree to believe in other Loa outside of Settaris?" β
"It's a matter of people." Onexia smiled meaningfully: "As long as SΓ©taris himself does not object, and Sulsis and Warwick take a tacit attitude, who the people below want to believe, it is not good for the snake people to interfere too much." β
