Chapter 1750: The Fallen Council of Zanshuli
The fall of the Nazwasa Seal was almost inevitable, as it was too close to Gohorn's Odil lab.
Coupled with the fact that Cirik, a traitor who led the way, took the initiative to distract Kagwa, Toga, and Grohl, it was only natural that the prepared blood trolls would take Nazwasa by surprise.
Although the offensive has slowed down in recent years due to internal problems, Zandalara's troop of troops in the fortress of Zulgar is still a cause for alarm.
Because of this, the blood trolls who were so devastated moved more than 70% of their remaining forces to the southwestern part of the swamp near the fortress of Zulgar, and guarded against another attack by Zandalara.
With so many blood trolls in population, the forces remaining in Nazwasa were stretched thin.
As the king of the Zendalar Empire, Loa, Bonsandi has the power to mobilize the priests of the Grim Reaper, who belong directly to the Hades.
After receiving Sarren's notice, Bang Sandy cooperated and began to act without saying a word.
A large number of troll priests with the power of death came out of the palace in an orderly manner, surrounding the weak northern defenses of the Heart of Darkness.
At the same time, the combined forces of the fox and the snake people also sent troops to the Land of Sorrow, and after taking this necessary crossing from Zudasa to the Hades, Warwick, who personally led the army, did not rush to attack, but began to build fortifications steadily.
By the direction of their fortifications, Bonsandy could tell at a glance that the snake men and the foxmen were not only guarding against the blood trolls, but also against the Zandalar army from the Zurgar fortress, which meant that the alliance intended to officially bring the Land of Sorrows under its jurisdiction.
Bonsandy saw all this, but he didn't say anything to stop it.
For the sake of Bang Sandi's face, it is impossible for the alliance of the two clans to really block the normal communication between Zudasa and the Hades, and Bang Sandy is not panicked at all.
At the same time, Sarayan and Onexia also began to split up.
Onexia transforms back into the form of a dragon and flies to Toga's lair, which is relatively close to Hades, where she recruits the mild-mannered turtle Loatoga to join the coalition plan.
And Loa Kagwa, a frog who is far away and has a very shallow friendship, is personally in charge of Sarren.
The daring Sarian didn't bother to take a detour, and flew directly over the Heart of Darkness and walked in a straight line towards the Kagwa Lair.
As he flew over Odil, Salian clearly felt the power of the Void coming from inside the building.
Compared to Enzos, who Salayen faced before, Gohorn's strength is still inferior, at least so far.
At this moment, Salian keenly sensed a covert gaze, and he glared back along the other's line of sight.
The oppression of the dragon power attached to the golden dragon pupils made the blood troll hiding in the shadows tremble, and Salaan seemed to be able to see Gohorn hiding behind the scenes through his godless eyes.
"Humph!"
Sarjan, who quickly turned his gaze back, snorted disdainfully: "Don't worry, I'll soon go to Odile to visit you personally, Doghu." β
β¦β¦
At the same time, Tarangi and Zur, who had returned to Zudasa, began to put the finishing touches on the arrangement of every part of the plan.
At the end of a busy day, Zur said goodbye to a tired Tarangi and returned to his secluded abode.
As soon as he sat down, Zur felt the call of a certain will again.
Since Zur stepped down, he has been exposed to this will more than once, and the other party will always use seductive language to lure him to liberate his nature.
"Again?" Zuer tugged at the corners of his mouth and sneered: "I see that you are also in a hurry, and you are in a hurry to go to the doctor?" β
"I repeat, my fate is up to me, not God, and even if I am depressed, I will not pin my hope for the revival of the motherland on the vague promise of the so-called 'God'."
"Get out! One day I will personally confront you, a 'god' full of lies! β
If Sarena had been there, he would have recognized it at a glance, and the will that had haunted Zor for so many years came from Gohorn.
As Gohorn had seen in his early years, there was darkness lurking in Zur's heart after a complete failure of political ideas, and he was confident that he would have tempted Zur to his advantage.
If Zur is well-connected in the Zandalar Empire, the hope of breaking the seal of the Zudasa Giant will be greatly increased.
However, to Gohorn's chagrin, Zur refused to accept his invitation.
In desperation, Gohorn retreated and reached into the equally dark-hearted Council of Zanshuli.
With this experience, Zur Shun guessed that someone in the Zanshuli Council would betray his country, which was one of the reasons why he was willing to return to the mountains to assist Tarangi in his seizure of power.
After the "...... of the Zanshuli Council" confirmed that the mysterious will was gone, a cold light flashed in Zur's cloudy eyes: "Sure enough, these fools have lost themselves because of the bait of power, and they can take the opportunity of this coup d'Γ©tat to clean up the entire parliament." β
Zur was also a member of the Zanshuli Council, and during the period when he was in power for Rastaha, the Zanshuli Council was so efficient that it would never forget its job as it is now.
At least, in the early days of the Zur administration.
Later in Zur's reign, Rastaha, who had lost patience with his ideas, began to operate in the shadows, replacing several members of the council one after another.
Those who play with power will inevitably be eaten by power in the end, and it is not until he steps down from that position that Zur, who is a bystander, can see this calmly.
The current Speaker of the Council of Zanshuli is Yazma, the chief priest of Spiderlo Ashadra, who was Zur's deputy when he was in power.
Don't get me wrong, the reason why she can serve as the number two person in the council is not because of Yazma's outstanding ability, but simply because of her prominent background and strong family influence.
Yazma's family has been priests serving Shadra for generations, and after countless generations of accumulation, they have finally sat in the position of chief priest.
To be fair, Zur thinks that Yazma's abilities are not top-notch, but they are barely functional.
At least, during his reign.
With Zur forced to step down, Yazma, the second man in parliament, became the natural substitute for the speaker.
Perhaps it was the rise of status that gave birth to Yazma...... Or the ambition of the family behind her, Yazma, who was once quite conscientious, began to devote more energy to playing with power, and she even wanted to overthrow the rule of the god king Rastaha as the leader and put Princess Tarangi, who was about to inherit the throne of the god king.
With the exception of Yazma, the members of the council who had been reused under Zor had been ostracized, and now in power were either Yazma's henchmen, such as the deformed troll Vokar, or the ill-intentioned careerist, such as General Zakhadzec, a sandfury troll.
With an ambitious speaker like Yazma who sets the tone, only those who follow her will will have more power in the parliament.
Zur's upright councillors, such as the War Druiloti and the Sorcerer Lord Ral, have lost their voice and are dormant waiting for a chance to fight back.
And that opportunity is coming soon.
There's an old saying that if you want to make it die, you must first make it mad.
In Yazma's opinion, he was only one step away from reaching the top of Zandalara.
Excited, she inevitably overlooked some details that should have been taken seriously, focusing all her energy on how to defeat Rastaha, but ignoring the crisis behind her.
Once upon a time, Zur would also ignore things that didn't seem important to him at the time.
After stepping down from the pinnacle of power, Zur was able to more calmly confirm the changes in the world situation.
The final conclusion was...... Zendala's old philosophy of governance is no longer fit for the times.
It is for this reason that Zur gave up the burden of patience and continued to assist Rastaha, and chose to be cultivated by Princess Tarangi, who is still young but very malleable.
"Ha......" Zur, who was sitting in the middle of the night to sort out his thoughts, yawned, and before dragging his old and tired body to bed, he looked up at the bright moonlight outside the window: "The ancient Zandalar Empire has also come to completely change from top to bottom, I hope the young Tarangi can bear this burden."
