Chapter 1497: Nightmare Giant Tortoise Nemesis

In the more than ten years since his debut, Salian has dealt with trolls from various clans.

So far, he didn't dare to say that he was fully aware of the endless voodoo methods of trolls, and the trolls of different clans were able to come up with some new tricks for him from time to time.

Saray even suspects that the troll civilization is still primitive and backward for more than 10,000 years, and the main reason is that they have focused all their energy on voodoo research, and have never thought about climbing technology.

Of course, this is just a joke.

Logically, voodoo is also part of the magic system, and both magic and technology are just tools for the search for truth, and in the end, they end up in the same way.

What makes Saljan untenable is not the trolls' fanatical love of voodoo, but the fact that they don't use voodoo for the right path, thinking about how to torture people all day long.

I used a joke about the barrage to make an analogy.

Obviously, the study of gunpowder technology can further improve the power of explosive weapons and effectively enhance the country's force and deterrence.

Troll ...... To be precise, trolls other than Zandalar fit the metaphor more or less.

No, the Atalai cultists have developed a new trick through voodoo methods.

Now that he had touched the study of voodoo at the soul level, Sarian couldn't understand why Attalai hadn't studied Zandalara.

With the help of Death Loa Bang Sandy, he gained a deeper understanding of the concept of death, and instead used his brains to transform these disposable Wraith self-detonators.

There is one thing to say, it is really a tyrannical thing.

Salian couldn't understand the cultist's brain circuits.

These self-destructing wraiths, which are only immune to all damage for a short period of time, are not very harmful, but are relatively easy to inflict first sight kills.

As long as they are left around like dogs and do not actively approach and touch, the spirits will not be able to do any damage, and they will automatically disappear when the activity time reaches the limit.

The death of the 6 high-ranking priests of Atalai will inevitably alarm the leadership of Atalai, who are squatting in the lowest core area.

After all, the temple of Atahaka is the home of the enemy, and there are also dream demon forces hiding in the shadows and ready to make trouble.

Sarean didn't want to face the cultists' frenzied counterattack.

Whether you can fight or not is one thing, whether you have to do it is another.

Under the orders of Sarean, the Backlight Blade Thieves, who had completed their respective tasks, stalked on the spot again.

They will then continue to descend into the bottom of the temple under the personal leadership of Valeera, and their main mission is to find out the exact location of the leader of Attalai and carry out the assassination.

Just in case, Salian sent Gianna over as well.

Gianna can't stealth, but she can use mage-specific invisibility to enter phase space, and it's not so easy for trolls to catch her.

The Temple of Atahaca is a typical pyramid structure of trolls, with the higher the floor area the further down it goes.

More than a hundred thieves were scattered on the ground floor of the temple of Notda, and Sarren, who was going to act alone, speculated that it would take at least several hours for the Backlight Blade to complete the assassination target.

The course of events was as Sarena had predicted.

Luckily, the thieves were quick enough to reach the bottom of the temple before the Atalai cultists blocked the staircase.

The stairwell is so big, and a little slower movement will allow the other party to set up a formation, forming a situation where one man is at a loss.

…… Of course, the actual situation is certainly not so bad, and Attalai really doesn't have to be this kind of general.

Backlight Blade thieves need to actively avoid the Atalai trolls who scream like rats blasting their nests to the middle level, which will inevitably cause their exploration to slow down.

With Valera and Gianna in charge, Sarren is not worried about the safety of the thieves.

Even if they are unlucky enough to encounter the Dream Demon Legion, these two heroines who are proficient in spatial teleportation can immediately move to the scene to solve the crisis.

After the thieves split into two groups and began to move, SalΓ©an stood in the central ring of the hall and took a look around.

The structure of the lower floor of the temple is not complicated, and there are only 6 junctions in total.

To the north is the stairwell leading to the Middle Level, where a large number of Attalai trolls are swarming towards it...... Although it doesn't work for eggs.

There was only one road to the south facing the stairwell, and with his eagle eye he could only see a corner, and Salian could vaguely feel a familiar ominous aura from the depths of the road.

There are two intersections on the west and east sides, and if the information provided by the barrage is true, the two roads on each side are connected, and the final destination is two halls with different purposes.

The barrage cannot be fully trusted based on the experience given in the game dungeon, and in the real Azeroth, it is impossible for the leader of Attalai to stay in one place all the time waiting for the enemy to come to challenge.

According to the barrage, the leader of Atalai they knew was named Gamaran the Prophet.

However, the information they know comes from a few years into the original history, and no one can guarantee that there will be any changes in Atta's personnel in the intervening years.

If you just use the information provided by the barrage without using your brain, you may suffer a lot because of inertial thinking.

Therefore, Sarian has not said the name of the prophet Gamaran, lest the thieves of the Backlight Blade form a preconceived misconception.

Personnel can be replaced, but the purpose of the halls within the temple should not change drastically in a few years, especially when it comes to the altar of the haka.

If nothing else, the hall to the west of the temple would have been the altar used to worship the haka, replacing the abandoned altar on the water.

To the east is the administrative area where the core layer of the Attalai is located, and most of the Atalai leaders should be concentrated in this area.

Considering that Haka had only been beaten to the point of autism by Sarian not long ago, the task of exploring the Altar of Haka was assigned to the second detachment of the Backlight Blade, led by Gianna.

Valera personally led the first team to explore the Atalai Administrative Hall to the east.

"Worthy of a fanatical cultist who believes in Haka."

As the Stalker made his way south, the Black Panther transformed by Sarian found a number of giant wind snakes that were the heirs of Haka, with various attributes.

Instead of startling the snakes, Salian took the initiative to bypass the large spicy strips and continued to the southern intersection.

The closer he got to the passage, the more oppressive the atmosphere Salian felt.

"Sure enough."

After turning the last corner, Salaan saw a huge beast with a black-green halo all over his body.

To be precise, it is a soul body giant beast that has been corrupted by dream demons.

It was a giant turtle that looked quite similar in appearance to Tortola, and was relatively similar in size.

But Sarean is sure that this guy is definitely not Torola.

Not long before leaving for Draenor, Salaen had also made a trip to the Emerald Dream Realm and had been in contact with several demigods remotely.

Except for the tsundere Godlin and the withdrawn Ashaman who did not respond to contact, all the demigods were alive and kicking in the Emerald Dream, including the tortoise demigod Tortora.

[This guy ...... It can't be Nemesis, right? 】

[Isn't Nemesis a very cool-looking flame turtle? 】

[It was its form after being infused with flames by Ragnarus, and the original Nemesis and Tortora were almost identical.] 】

Nemesis is positioned in a similar way to Canthos to Godring, it is the shadow of Tortora, the other side of him. 】

[In the original history, Twilight's hammer tried to replace Tortora and Godring's tortoise demigod and wolf god status with Nemesis and Lecanthos, but in the end it was unsuccessful. 】

"Tortola's Shadow......"

Sallian looked thoughtfully at the armored beast, which had apparently lost its mind.

"That's Atta's biggest reliance, right? This guy looks pretty good. ”

As a shadow of a demigod and a dark side of their wild nature, Nemesis was originally disembodied in the physical world, which was the main reason why he and Laicanthos were easily corrupted by the Dream Demon.

"Shouldn't all the demigods of the wilderness have a shadow of a dark side?"

The corners of Sarren's mouth twitched: "What are you playing?" Split personality? ”

[Not really, as far as we know, the only demigods with shadow faces are Godlin and Tortora, and the others have not heard of it at least so far.] 】

"Okay."

Salian kept his sneak around Nemesis, the large turtle unaware of anyone approaching, still holding its eyes closed.

Maintaining the appearance of a panther, Sarjan simply squatted down at the entrance to the hall in front of Nemesis.

"Let's wait for news from Valilla and Gianna, as long as this big turtle doesn't move, I'm too lazy to bother with it."

"But ......"

Sarjan looked thoughtfully at the dream demon aura rising above Nemesis: "I wonder if I can trace back to the place where Varosson is recuperating through the power of these dream demons...... Give it a try. ”
