The gray-faced Brian Bronzebeard stretched his head out from the ruins with difficulty. His face was covered with dust, and even his beautiful orange beard became dirty. And beside him, the giantess Elona
Ya was trying to climb out of the collapsed cave, while Lorewalker Zhou Zhuo was lying not far away. This unlucky guy's head was smashed by a falling rock and he was bleeding now. He looked so miserable.
.
Muradin was the only one who was intact, but his battle helmet was also flattened by stones, revealing the face that had been completely transformed into diamonds under the battle helmet.
Brian tried his best to look back. The place that was originally the Shaper's secret room had been completely submerged by the rocks that fell from above. The cave itself collapsed, but the main body of the rock hall was not destroyed, so the place in front of him was
The collapse only requires a period of cleaning before the secret room can be opened again.
"Are you sure your friend didn't press the wrong button?"
Muradin stretched out his hand and pulled his brother out of the ruins. Faced with his inquiry, Brian, who was wiping the dust on his body and wiping his face, shrugged:
"There should be nothing wrong. Look around. The noisy sounds of the gears have stopped. Zhou Zhuo did turn off these devices, but this collapse and fall...who knows what happened."
"It's Lorcan!"
The female giant Elonnaya finally climbed out of the big pit. The secondary guardian who regained her body looked around, and then said to the two dwarves in front of her:
"Loken must have connected the control terminal of the Shaper's secret chamber with the security system of the entire Hall of Rock. That villain has set a trap. Any operation that attempts to lock the Forge of Will will directly cause the collapse of the secret chamber.
"
A mocking smile appeared on the rock-carved face of Elonnayana:
"But that traitor certainly didn't expect that there is still a real guardian awake... Azadas and I have been given the authority to control the earth. I can still resist such a collapse... You did a good job, Bu
Longzan! The other control terminals of the Forge of Will have been locked. Now unless Loken comes to the Rock Hall in person and reopens this terminal, he will no longer be able to use the power of the Forge of Will to deal with us."
Having said this, the giantess waved her fist fiercely:
"And as long as that coward dares to come here, I will definitely teach him a lesson! Alas... It's a pity that Azadas is not here, otherwise the two of us can lead you directly into the Lightning Hall and kill the traitor
Pull him down from his throne and chop off his head full of dark wisdom!"
"Then what's next? Ancestor Elonnaya."
While trying to lift the unconscious Zhou Zhuo up, Brian looked at the rock giant in front of him and asked loudly:
"Are we going to counterattack the Lightning Hall next?"
"No!"
Alonaya shook her head, she thought for a moment, and said to the two dwarves in front of her who had won her trust:
"Our strength is not enough. Although Loken can no longer activate new Stormcast Legions from the Forge of Will, the number of soldiers that have been activated is also very large, and the Vrykul and Frost Giants in the entire Storm Peaks are constantly conquering
, that traitor will definitely use the hatred between the two parties to lure them into his camp."
"You saw Storm Guardian Thorim in the Temple of Storms before. He was depressed because of the death of his wife. It doesn't matter. I will be responsible for persuading him. Thorim is a powerful guardian who controls thunder and lightning. Once he stands
On our side, we no longer need to fear Loken and his evil legions, and Thorim is the god of the Vrykul, and his resurrection will stop the war in Storm Peaks."
The giantess said confidently:
"As for you, you have to recruit the heroes of this world, find all the forces that can be united, and twist them into a rope. Then after we defeat Loken, I will take you into Ulduar and bring my compatriots
Awaken one by one, and then use the power of the guardians to seal Yogg-Saron again...or kill it directly!"
"I heard that the mortals in this world killed the ancient god C'Thun in the Silithus Desert. Although I don't know how you did it, but since you can do it for the first time, you must do it.
I can do it a second time..."
"And this time, the guardians will be on your side! Fight together for the future of this world!"
——————————————————————————
At the moment when Zhou Zhuo pressed the button and locked all the control terminals of the Forge of Will, at the northernmost end of the Storm Cliffs, on the ring wall of the mysterious city of Ulduar at the North Pole of the world, separated from the Rock Hall,
Another acropolis on both sides of Ulduar, in the Hall of Lightning, the wisdom guardian Loken, who was leaning on a rock-made, crystal-embellished throne, suddenly woke up. This traitor to the guardian who had been sleeping for hundreds of years suddenly
Eye.
This huge guardian of wisdom felt that the trap he left in the rock hall had been triggered, but the vicious trap seemed to have no effect.
This made Loken very dissatisfied.
He calls himself the guardian of wisdom. Because of his superior wisdom, which was personally blessed by Norgannon, Loken always seems to be very conceited. Of course, he also has the capital to be conceited.
This traitor, who has a giant body like other guardians, still maintains the posture when he was born. He has short golden hair. Although it is carved from rock, it looks lifelike. On his forehead is a sapphire crown that represents wisdom.
Paired with Loken's blue eyes and well-groomed beard, this guardian looks calm and majestic.
He wears a white robe, with a golden belt to tie up the waist of the robe, and beautiful blue and white ribbons on both sides of the shoulders. He wears chain mail-like shorts, complete shoulder armor and arm guards, and
A pair of shoes that look like slippers.
Overall, Loken is the one who dresses the most like a human among all the Guardians, which seems to represent a certain nature of his.
He leaned on his throne in a lazy posture. In front of his throne, a sophisticated Titan instrument used a design similar to an astronomical instrument to outline the operation of the planet Azeroth and the entire galaxy.
Ken calmly watched the operation of the galaxy in front of him. He flicked his fingers, and the next moment, a blue, image-like picture was projected in front of his eyes.
What was displayed on the screen was clearly the scene of Elonaya issuing orders to the two dwarves.
The moment he saw Elonnaya, Loken's eyes narrowed suddenly.
"Tyr...my bravest, most stubborn, and most difficult brother, even if you have been dead for 20,000 years, your troubled soul is still causing me trouble, right?"
Obviously, Loken accurately recognized the former lieutenant of Tyr, the Guardian of Justice, in front of him from the new body of Elonaia.
To be honest, Loken has not forgotten the things that happened 25,000 years ago. Those things were not only a disaster for survivors like Elonaya, but also for Loken himself.
It's a pleasant thing to do.
The guardian of wisdom narrowed his eyes, and the things that happened twenty-five thousand years ago seemed to appear before his eyes again, like a nightmare that he could never get rid of.
The original cause of the story was probably a dispute...
Loken will never forget that on a sudden day more than 20,000 years ago, all the guardians saw a strange scene before their eyes, the magnificence of the stars, the extinction of the sun, and the destruction that spanned the universe and enveloped the sea of stars.
The fire was burning, and no one knew what the sudden appearance of those pictures meant, but the power of each guardian was strangely enhanced as a result.
Since that day, Rai, the leader of the Guardians, has disappeared, and Odin, the most stubborn and powerful person, claimed that he saw a disturbing future from the vision, and he asked the Guardians to give him more authority.
Come and gather the souls of brave men from all over the world to forge a legion of heroic spirits to deal with all crises.
But this request was rejected by the other guardians, so Odin quarreled and roared with his brothers in the hall of Ulduar. Loken would never forget that day... Odin, who felt betrayed, completely and
Ulduar severed ties and sealed himself and his powers within his sky fortress of Valargar.
And that dispute that made all the guardians upset was probably the origin of all the problems...
Loken is the wisest among the Guardians. He read some bad premonitions from Rai's disappearance and Odin's strange actions, but he cannot tell others about his premonitions about the Titans.
The brothers who worship the Titans will not accept it.
But Loken felt the agony of being tortured by this terrible prophecy every day, and even his dreams became weird. At that time, Loken didn't realize that it was Yogg-Saron who was doing this for him.
A trap set because at that time, no one believed that the ancient god trapped in the cage would escape the seal.
In order to relieve his pressure, Loken did something shameful...
He had a secret tryst with a female Vrykul named Sif, which was a taboo thing, because Sif was the wife of his brother Thorim. Loken initially regarded this taboo game as an emotion.
However, with the inner anxiety and the influence of the dream power, Loken began to desire more and more to truly get Sif. He still remembered how he rudely asked Sif to disclose his relationship with her.
But Sif refused.
The titan creation was very rational. She knew that once the forbidden love between her and Loken was made public, the brotherly relationship between Loken and Thorim would inevitably disappear. At that time when the guardians were all terrified,
This will undoubtedly directly trigger divisions within the Guardians.
However, Sif's rejection was regarded by Loken as a betrayal... Driven by the jealousy, anger and madness that suddenly surged in his heart, Loken waved his sword towards Sif who wanted to leave him...
It was a nightmare day. When Loken woke up and saw his lover lying in front of him, he saw the shock and despair in Sif's eyes before she died. He suddenly realized... that he had done a real evil.
What's more terrible is that he doesn't know how to explain this matter to his brother Thorim and the other guardians.
And just when he was suffering from his recklessness, another voice appeared...
That was the starting point for the disaster of Loken and the entire Guardian system...
Loken, who was sitting on the throne, clenched his fists. He forced himself to wake up from that painful memory. He knew that it was he who single-handedly caused the collapse of the Titan Guardian system. It was he who combined with Yogg-Saron to use despicable means.
Method, he assassinated his most righteous brother Tyr, and he single-handedly started the ancient hatred between Titan creations.
It was he...who single-handedly destroyed the order set by the Titans for this world, but he had already embarked on that dark road...he could no longer turn back.
"For thousands of years, civilizations have ebbed and flowed, changing endlessly, but the stupidity of mortals has never changed... In the future that I have seen with my own eyes, they are destined to have no place!"
Loken said to himself. He picked up his scepter from the throne and tapped it lightly on the metal ground in front of him. A moment later, a heavily armed Thundercast Vrykul general came to Loken.
In front of Ken's throne, he half-knelt in front of Loken respectfully.
"Great Guardian, please give orders to your most loyal Stormcast Legion!"
The Iron Vrykul General shouted loudly:
"We are waiting for a new mission!"
"Very well, my loyal Biagri, I do have a mission for you and your soldiers."
Loken said calmly:
"A group of shameless mortals who wanted to violate the order invaded the Stone Hall, and boldly destroyed the operation of the supreme will furnace. They are provoking their creator, they are provoking their own gods... Go ahead and protect the guardian
Spread the punishing wrath over their heads and let them know the consequences of doing evil!"
"My loyal Shaper Volkan will help you create more war golems. You must be careful, Biagri, a lesser guardian who betrayed us and sided with those mortals...capture her
Come back! Throw her into Ulduar's prison cage as punishment for betrayal!"
"As you command! Great Loken! Great King of Wisdom!"
