MTL - War Hymn of Warcraft [WOW]-Chapter 42 cave of time
"Hello, we are called by Chromie, she said let us come to Soli Domi, we will know what we should do." As an excellent diplomat, Jaina even in the five-member team It also took on the heavy responsibility of diplomacy.
"So it was called by Chromie, so please come with me, adventurer." The leader of this group of bronze dragonmen carefully looked at the group of five people, and found that the energy intensity on their bodies even surpassed that of most bronze dragonmen. . It seems that the troubles that have been suffering from insufficient manpower can finally be solved. Thinking of this, the bronze dragonman happily turned his head and led the way, walking towards the depths of the Cave of Time.
The Cavern of Time is not so much a cave, but a subplane located in the twisting void with land above and below, surrounded by purple aurora and arcane energy, Zhan Zhixing felt as if he had returned to the Storm Fortress. According to rumors, the timeline of Azeroth is actually very unstable. From some places where the timeline is disordered, it is even possible to directly enter the blocked sacred place of the bronze dragon family.
"Recently, the timeline has fluctuated greatly, and it was done by a group of premeditated guys." The leading bronze dragonman introduced the current situation of the Cavern of Time to everyone, "Otherwise, the great eternal Nozdormu would not Allowing you mortal races to enter the Caverns of Time—of course, it is also possible that after an adventure, you suddenly find yourself sleeping in your own bed at home, forgetting everything that happened here."
Everyone didn't say a word, but they didn't think so in their hearts. Not to mention how difficult it is to manipulate everyone's memory now that the strength of a group of people is here. Besides, the Bronze Dragon Clan is famous for keeping their promises. Since Chromie promised to give everyone a wish, everyone will not forget everything that happened here.
After going around several corners, everyone finally came to the center of the Cavern of Time, in the hall where the Time Hourglass is located. The time hourglass of Azeroth is placed here, and the sands of time symbolizing countless "moments" slowly flow down from the top.
The hourglass of time is a three-layer structure, the first and last layers are composed of three cylinders, and the middle is a round sphere. The sand in the upper three cylinders gathered in one place like a feather and fell into the middle sphere; the sand in the middle layer was always full, and if you didn’t look at the glass-like outer layer, you would even think that It is a sand ball; a bunch of sand slowly falls from the bottom of the sand ball, and then it is magically divided into three parts, falling into the bottom three cylinders respectively.
"What a delicate structure, I think... I saw the whole, no, countless worlds..." As soon as Jaina entered the hall, she was instantly attracted by the hourglass of time, and couldn't help muttering to herself.
"You have good eyesight, Archmage." At this moment, the head of a bronze dragon suddenly popped out from the side of the hourglass. It blinked, grinned, and transformed into a high elf lady in an instant.
"Hello, adventurers, I am the chief consort of the Eternal, Solidormi." The high elf woman was dressed in a white cloth robe, looking gentle and elegant, "I entrusted Chromie to find a few more reliable adventurers to help correct the situation." Wrong timeline, I didn't expect her to invite so many heroes, it's our honor."
"It is our honor to serve the Bronze Dragon Clan, Your Excellency Soli Domi." Although Jaina was taken aback by the sudden appearance of the dragon head, she still maintained her demeanor as a magician, "But I would like to ask, what is it? What is the reason why the Bronze Dragon Clan, which guards the timeline for thousands of years, has to ask us mortal races for help?"
Solidomi sighed softly, and looked at the hourglass of time: "It's a group of powerful enemies. They call themselves the Eternal Dragon Clan. Although most of the people who have appeared so far have been the Dragonmen of the Eternal Dragon Clan, of course there are occasional Eternal Dragon Clansmen." The giant dragons appeared. But they still showed strong fighting power, among them, the dragonmen of the Eternal Dragon Clan can even make many weaker dragons of our Bronze Dragon Clan fall under their hands."
Dragonmen are humanoid creatures blessed by the Dragon Clan. They generally serve the Dragon Clan and take care of dragon eggs. Humanoid creatures can be converted voluntarily during conversion, and the Dragon Clan can also force humanoid creatures to be converted into Dragonmen. When converting a dragonman, the strength of the dragon needs to far exceed the strength of the person being converted, especially when the conversion is forced. This is recorded in the classics that Jaina once saw in Dalaran.
"This group of dragonmen of the Eternal Dragon Clan can actually have the strength of an ordinary dragon, so doesn't it mean that they..." Jaina couldn't help exclaiming.
Solidormi nodded, frowning: "That's right, according to our estimates, the Eternal Dragons who converted them are at least as powerful as Nozdormu. But fortunately, the more powerful Eternals that have been killed so far From the point of view of the dragon people, the Eternal Dragon Clan who performed the blessing is the same, as long as Nozdormu returns to the current timeline, this so-called Eternal Dragon Clan will be nothing to fear."
But now that Nozdormu is in trouble, Zhan Zhixing, combined with the history he acquired in "World of Warcraft", deeply feels that the current prospects are not optimistic. Now Nozdormu is lost in all moments—except the Last Hour, where the Eternal Dragonlord, Murozdor, is entrenched, or rather Muzdor at that moment is mutated. Fortunately, it is also because Nozdormu is "at all times", and as a legendary dragon guardian dragon, there can only be one in the world at the same time, which makes Nozdormu, the eternal dragon king, only dispatch some insignificant monsters. The Eternal Dragonman came forward.
"Forget it, why are you talking so much?" Soli Domi waved his hand, and suddenly felt that he had talked too much, so he began to introduce their mission to everyone, "The purpose of our inviting you here is to Correct the wrong timeline."
She waved her hand, and a shiny golden net appeared in front of everyone—the net looked chaotic, but it was always vaguely restrained on the same line.
"This is the schematic diagram of the time network of Azeroth. The timeline of Azeroth is generally in the shape of a network." Soli Domi introduced, magnifying the network countless times, and one of the nodes was placed in front of everyone. .
Garrosh suddenly felt that the node in front of him looked familiar. He touched it curiously, and suddenly the clip that Zhan Zhixing showed him at the beginning appeared in his mind - Grom Hellscream permanently freed orcs from the slavery of demon blood The moment it was released.
Shaking his head fiercely, pushing these pictures out of his mind, Garrosh seemed to understand what the nodes on this network were.
Seeing Garrosh's suddenly realized expression, Solidormi smiled and continued to explain: "As you can see, every node on the time web is a major historical event. However, sometimes, some accidents will make these Changes in historical events have caused the entire timeline to deviate. The task of our Bronze Dragon Clan has always been to correct these wrong timelines, and even destroy the entire wrong timeline if necessary."
"But," Suolidomi changed the topic, and the bright golden giant net drifted behind everyone in an instant, revealing a lonely timeline. One part of this timeline is linked to the main line of the timeline, while the other end is completely divergent, and everyone can even faintly see some iron blue luster that does not belong to bright gold.
"The Eternal Dragons are trying to completely change some timelines and replace the existing timelines of Azeroth with them, changing history forever. This is the task I want to entrust you with - find out all the timelines that are being modified by the Eternal Dragons. Timeline, and destroy the Eternal Dragons you have encountered." As he spoke, Solidomi took out an hourglass, opened the top cover of the hourglass, and "filled" part of the iron-blue luster into it.
Handing the hourglass in her hand to Jaina, Soli Domi explained to everyone: "Hold this hourglass, it can and can only allow you to travel through the time fault polluted by the eternal dragons. When the interference of a piece of time is eliminated, It will become usable again. If all the faults have been repaired, you smash it and we will send someone to pick you up and return to this point in time."
Jaina looked at the hourglass with an iron-blue light in front of her, and raised her head to make a request to Solidormi: "After completing this task, Sir Solidormi, one of us would like a 'bottle' of water from the Well of Eternity, Of course, we guarantee that it will not appear on the continent of Azeroth; moreover, we request at the same time in the name of two people, let His Excellency Nozdormu bless the world tree we planted in the new world, so that it can let all The hero class remains immortal."
"Don't worry, as long as you don't use it on the continent of Azeroth, it doesn't matter how big your 'bottle' is." Hearing the loophole in Jaina's words, Suoli Domi blinked mischievously. But when it came to Nozdormu, Solidomy's originally cheerful expression became serious again, and he spread his hands helplessly: "I can satisfy you for the first request, but regarding the blessing, I'm sorry that I can't agree without authorization. Nozdormu the Eternal is the only one who has blessed the World Tree, and my spouse is not in the Cavern of Time. But I promise you that after he returns, I will convey it for you.”
Although he failed to get the Eternal's promise directly, there was no way that the Eternal was not in the Cavern of Time, so he had to postpone the blessing. It's not too late, go early and return early, so the group of people opened the teleportation hourglass under the gaze of Soli Domi, and came to the first timeline that needs to be corrected.
"What is this place?" Breathing the stuffy air in the forest, Illidan frowned. "I smell a decaying smell. It's a swamp, maybe it's Dustwallow Marsh?"
"No, this is not Dustwallow Marsh." Theramore was built on the banks of Dustwallow Marsh. As the lord of Theramore, Jaina recognized at a glance that this was not the swamp beside her own city.
"Don't think about it, this is the dark swamp, and now Azeroth calls it the cursed land." Looking at the familiar scene in front of him, Zhan Zhixing stepped forward and said, "It is estimated that our mission is to help the stars World mage Medivh opened the door of darkness, right?"
"Open the Dark Portal? Why do you have to maintain this kind of history?" Garrosh took out a blade of grass from his backpack and chewed it in his mouth, asking a little puzzled.
"Because the Eternal Dragon is going to prevent Medivh from opening the Dark Portal, if the Dark Portal does not open, there will be no orc invasion, and many subsequent events will not happen. History will be rewritten accordingly, and our real 'now' ’ will also be affected by this.” Zhan Zhixing sighed helplessly, in fact, even he himself did not want to do such a thing, but all this is a historical necessity, “The task of the Bronze Dragon is to ensure the stability of time, Both good and bad things are inevitable in history. What we want to maintain is this historical inevitability.”
"Okay, okay, let's just do it." Illidan picked up the Azzinoth Warblade from behind, and was the first to walk forward, "The demonic aura over there is particularly strong, it should be the place where the Dark Portal opens Yes, you come with me."
A group of people followed Illidan's footsteps, and soon a gate about two people's height appeared in front of everyone.
"I didn't expect that the original state of the Dark Portal was so dilapidated." Jaina looked around, but she didn't find the figure of the astral mage Medivh, "Medivh should be going to get the magic circle. The materials have arrived, let's take a breath and eat something."
As a magician, Jaina knew when she first got the teleportation hourglass that this hourglass has the ability to conceal aura. Even Medivh, who is an astral mage, even has the body of Sargeras, the Lord of the Burning Legion. Soul, there is no way to find yourself these five people. So, Jaina found an open space with peace of mind, put down a few tables, chairs and benches, and prepared to fill her stomach before talking.
When Illidan saw this picture of a picnic, he also sharpened his knife and decided to prepare things by himself: "Wait a minute, I just saw that there seemed to be a leopard or something over there. I'll get one to eat as a barbecue."
After saying that, Illidan turned around and walked towards the forest, and soon brought out a black leopard. He happily unloaded a leopard leg, lit a bonfire and sat barbecue.
Zhan Zhixing hesitated for a moment, but still didn't use the ingredients that Illidan had hunted. Instead, he fished out a piece of steak from the package, raised a campfire and sat frying the steak.
"Hey, Zhan Zhixing, after Illidan's leopard leg is baked, I'm making some bread for you, it's enough for us to eat, why did you make another one?" Jaina looked at the two bonfires, a little unclear so.
Hearing Jaina's words, Garrosh couldn't help showing a constipated expression, while Zhan Zhixing smiled mysteriously and said, "You'll find out later."
