The Gate of the Creator, this is the name of the ancient ruins that stand deep in the Tanaris Desert. It is located in the mountains in the center of the Tanaris Desert, Silithus Desert and Un'Goro Crater. In the past,
For endless years, it has been protected by a powerful ancient magic power.
As early as thousands of years ago, the expedition team sent by Feralas Feathermoon Fortress discovered this valley and the gate protected by the barrier in the valley. During the First Orc War, the legendary explorer Brian
Bronzebeard also arrived in this valley for the first time. From the traces left on the rocks in the valley, Brian judged that this ruins was very old. He exaggeratedly called it the "Gate of the Creator".
Of course, at that time, Brian had not yet received the letter from the mysterious "Fortman", nor had he really come into contact with the mysterious "Titan", but the naming of the old dwarf revealed this secret.
The true face of the ruins.
This place is indeed related to the mysterious Titan. However, at this time, Brian Bronzebeard was still conducting his own exploration in the Storm Peaks in the northernmost part of the Northrend continent. He had no time to come here to participate in this archaeological activity.
All the way west along the shrub valley, the barrier that was originally as thick as solid rock has been completely damaged, like a mountain wall that collapsed from the inside. The black stone almost blocked the entire entrance to the Creator's Gate, but this
It is not a problem for mages and shamans. After the Titan barrier collapsed, the forbidden magic zone in the valley also disappeared, and the elements became active again.
With the cooperation of Luo Ning and Nobundo, this extremely complex archaeological observation team took less than an hour to clear a road into the ruins.
After the evacuation peeled off the black rock, what was revealed to everyone was the real "Gate of the Creator", which was enough to shock the hearts of any explorers who entered it.
It was a huge mountain range that was forcibly cut from the center. On both sides of the rift valley that crossed the mountain range, there were two huge black sculptures. Judging from the position of the sculptures, it was obvious that this thing was built on the mountain by a master architect.
The sculptures hammered out on the wall fit in perfectly with the mountain range.
The shape of the sculpture looks very strange. It looks like a huge panther squatting on the ground, but it has a body similar to the Khajiit of Draenor, with two wings on its back, and between its claws.
At this time, holding a blazing torch high, the sculpture's face was extremely serious. Its eyes were staring in the direction of the shrub valley, as if expecting to see the scenery and world outside the barrier...
In short, just the Gate of the Creator at the entrance to the ruins allowed the members of the archaeological observation team to see the secrets hidden under this world. Judging from the records of the night elves, it has most likely been hidden for centuries.
, or even tens of thousands of years, but after passing through the Gate of the Creator, what appears in front of everyone is not a perfect world like Taoyuan Township.
On the contrary, it is a vast expanse of yellow sand, just like the great deserts of Tanaris and Silithus... Here, in this vast expanse of yellow sand, there really is a person who has never been in contact with the world.
A mysterious ancient civilization?
"Look! The style of this sculpture, there is no doubt that this is a new civilization that has never been discovered by the world!"
Dr. Harrison Jones, a historian and well-known archaeologist from the Kingdom of Storms, rode on a tall horse and introduced the small "inspection group" behind him with excitement:
"A sculpture of a beast we have never seen before. The upper body is similar to a humanoid creature, while the lower body is similar to a panther, and there is a pair of wings... Well, this may be the natural god worshiped by this civilization, maybe it is
They or some divine beast they imagined... Oh, and this beast protects the burning torch?"
Dr. Harrison, wearing a brown cowboy hat, quickly took out a notebook from his backpack and began to write and draw, mumbling something.
"They must worship the natural flame. This is the original belief that all intelligent civilizations will be born from. This most likely means that what we are about to face is a civilized civilization that is not even inferior to us... Of course, the most important thing is,
They have most likely lived in this weird seal for thousands of years, and their complete isolation from the outside world must have allowed them to develop a culture that is completely different from ours!"
"This is so exciting!"
This doctor is probably the most professional person in this "archaeological observation team", and he is the only one who is immersed in the expectation of the mysterious civilization that he is about to meet. As for the others...even the two people who just
The great shaman who has integrated into the world of Azeroth can't help but cast his eyes on someone in the team.
Yes, Archmage Luo Ning...
Due to the "publicity" of a beautiful pirate lady who likes to gossip but cannot keep secrets, when this team set off, the rumors about Luo Ning and his bad luck had become a topic of discussion among everyone when they had nothing to do.
new topic.
Faced with this familiar situation, Luo Ning, the famous "Dragon Mage" in the Human Empire, felt that he seemed to have returned to the disgusting city of Dalaran. The looks from around him might be curious.
, either with fear or with ridicule, which made Luo Ning have a gloomy face since he set off.
He didn't want to talk...especially when he saw his apprentice, Miss Daphne Marin, leaving the magic carpet he was driving with the poor excuse of "looking for water", and the little dwarf Jindy, whose face was filled with fear and excitement.
When the sparks crowded on the carriage behind, Luo Ning's eyes became even more gloomy.
The instigator of all this, Miss "Knives" Catherine, simply took several of her followers and hung far behind the inspection group.
Pirates are a group of lawless and extremely superstitious guys, and the smart Miss Catherine is not exempt from them, especially after witnessing the terrible consequences of Ronin's bad luck. No matter how brave Miss Catherine is, she plans to continue her mission.
Before the end, stay as far away from "Dragon Mage" Luo Ning as possible.
Of course, there is another reason why Miss Catherine wanted to separate from this inspection group...
"Bud!"
The pirate lady riding on the back of her beloved white camel "Countess" asked in a low voice:
"Are you sure we can make big money this time?"
"certainly!"
Following Catherine, riding on the back of the black camel, the young man who was a bit cunning and a bit shrewd stretched out his hand to put on his cowboy hat, then rubbed his hands like a philistine, he turned his head and looked at the "Creator's Door" that was open behind him.
"With the huge and long-standing stone statues on both sides, a glimmer of light flashed in his narrowed eyes:
"In the name of the Mage of the Nedlake family, boss, I just secretly took a look at those two stone statues. Judging from my ancestral experience, those things have been standing there for at least more than 10,000 years! In other words, regardless of this
What does civilization look like? They have all stayed in their nests for ten thousand years... In fact, "cultural relic explorers" like me very much agree with Mr. Brian Bronzebeard's words..."
"Even if I bury myself in the desert for a thousand years, my value will increase... and it will be very valuable!"
The young man named Bud laughed twice and wiped his mustache proudly:
"I can guarantee that as long as we can find more than 3 real cultural relics in the desert in front of us, we will definitely make money on this trip! And I heard that this relic is related to the mysterious "Titan". As far as I know,
In recent years, the Explorers Association has been collecting any relics related to "Titan" regardless of cost, which means that those are the truly valuable treasures."
"Come on, Bud, don't flatter yourself. You are still a "cultural relic prospector." Who doesn't know that the Nedlake family is the most notorious cultural relic trafficker in the entire South China Sea, but I have to say that your family's appraisal
Technology is truly trustworthy.”
Another very young female pirate who accompanied Bard, a beautiful woman who was dressed 60% similar to Catherine, reached out and brushed her hair, and spoke very venomously against Bard's flattery of herself, and then in Bard's eyes
In her glare, the charming woman said to her leader:
"So, boss, you will probably have your own second ship...or even a small fleet! We have to celebrate in advance!"
"Look at you, little Edara, your little mouth is really good at talking! I can guarantee you, my friends, you will get 40% of all the loot we get this time!"
Catherine, the "sharp blade" who was praised by her subordinates, laughed and threw a bottle of wine to her subordinates. These people she had also made friends with during her years of piracy and cheating.
One of the few friends, they are all guys who have special skills but are not good at fighting. They are the same as Catherine, the Flower of the South Sea.
After all, Ms. "Knife" Catherine has never gained her reputation through force.
Riding on her white camel, with an unobstructed view of the desert scenery in front of her, Catherine opened a bottle of wine herself. After bragging with her subordinates, she drank wine and looked back at the distance behind her.
Gate of the Creator, a glimmer of light flashed in her beautiful eyes.
"Money? What does money mean..."
Catherine touched her beautiful face, but wrinkled by time, and said to herself:
"As long as we finish the job at hand, the old man and I will have enough food and clothing for the rest of our lives, and even for the next life... After all, that gentleman is very "generous" to his subordinates, and the future he promised is mine.
And what the old man needs...ah, that...eternal life that traps all greedy people."
While drinking, Miss Sharp Blade laughed to herself:
"Catherine, Catherine, you are indeed a greedy bastard at heart!"
"But... who isn't?"

"Bang bang"
A low knock on the door sounded in the dark office, and a moment later, a hoarse voice responded:
"Come in!"
"Shua"
The door was pushed open, and Shadow, the deputy director of the Dark Blade Intelligence Bureau in black uniform and a level 9 agent, walked into the dim office with a document. After smelling the special smell that permeated the dim room,
The shadow's eyes become very ugly under the white mask.
She ignored the figure leaning on the office chair with his back to her, threw the documents on the desk filled with cigarette butts, then walked straight to the window, stretched out her hands, and opened the heavy curtains in front of her.
The next moment, arrow-like light shined into this large office. Outside the window, the most beautiful sunset in Stormwind City was hanging on the horizon, shrouding the increasingly prosperous city with its golden-red light.
middle.
"Shut it! Damn it!"
However, Shadow's behavior attracted a wave of scolding, and the hoarse voice scolded in a tone containing anger:
"You idiot, don't you know that vampires hate sunlight? Turn it off! Think about me, a poor monster, okay?"
"Shut up! Maiev!"
Shadow turned around, and she looked at the director of the Dark Blade Intelligence Bureau behind her, who looked like the most decadent girl, wearing sloppy underwear, curled up on an office chair, and puffing away smoke in an extremely salty manner.
Level 10 agent Maiev Shadowsong.
The well-designed black uniform of this once best warden was randomly thrown on the ground, stained with suspicious blood stains. The gorgeous carpet in the entire room was littered with carelessly thrown cigarette butts, and even the carpet was stained.
There were many black holes burned out, as well as many scattered and empty wine bottles. Judging from the labels, they were the best blood wine supplied by Dark Blade Military Supplies to senior officers.
Maiev Shadowsong, who had been transformed into Sarain by the great lord himself, faced the shadow's scolding. She rolled her eyes and showed a disgusted expression. She put the cigarette butts in her hand on the already filled cigarette butts.
He put it out in the ashtray, then stood up casually and moved his arms, not caring at all about his naked and perfect body exposed in front of the shadow.
After all, she was only wearing a small vest and hot pants that could hardly hide her beauty. Even the neat single ponytail was broken into long white hair, which was messily spread over her smooth pale skin.
.
Maiev Shadowsong was born in the upper elf city of Suramar. She has the blood of the upper elf in her body. She is not a pure night elf, so her skin is not the charming purple of the night elf.
"What are you here for?"
Maiev turned her back to the shadow, casually put on her dirty upper body uniform, and asked without looking back:
"What? Does our "great" overlord have any "fantastic ideas" again? Who does he need me to get rid of for him? Tyrande? Very good... I will kill her right now.
"
"Shut up!"
Shadow roughly grabbed Maiev's arm, dragged her into the bathroom of the office, very roughly pulled off Maiev's clothes, and then pushed her into the bathroom.
Between the gurgling hot water and the frosted bathroom glass, Shadow took off his mask and looked at Maiev indifferently, while the naked Maiev stood on the other side of the glass and spoke with
He stared at her with bloody eyes, not caring that the hot blood sprayed from the nozzle wet her body.
"You turned me into a monster like you!"
Maiev's hoarse voice echoed in the bathroom:
"Why don't you let me die? Why don't you let me be completely free? You bastard! Didn't you say...you love me? Is this the way you love me?"
"That happened in the past, Maiev."
Shadow... No, Nasa looked at her former companion calmly, and she whispered:
"Let me tell you something new. Your brother, Jarod, just had his own children yesterday, a pair of twins. They are very cute children... They are your nephews and nieces, the children of the shadow.
The new generation successor of the Song family... Do you know what Jarod named his daughter?"
"He called her Maiev..."
"Bang"
Maiev Shadowsong's fist hit the glass hard, and a shocking crack exploded on the glass. At this moment, the decadent Sarain seemed to have turned into the terrible warden, Wen, again.
The hot water droplets streaked down her forehead, giving the blood-colored eyes like a lone wolf a hint of terrifying murderous intent, and she herself said in a voice without any trace of fireworks:
"If you dare to touch them...I will definitely kill you all!"
