After some exchanges with the water elemental named Montadi, Sarlayan realized that he had made a common sense mistake.
Among the countries that Sarlayan knows, at least they have a unified official language within the country, but this is not the case in the Dark Empire.
Qiraji is only one of the official languages of the Dark Empire. Flesh-and-blood creatures, including Enraki and Xeraki, have their own language system. Both are the official languages of the Dark Empire.
At first, Montardi habitually spoke the elemental language, which was very rare in later generations. Seeing that Sarlayan and Valeela did not respond, he immediately changed to the official language used by the Faceless Men, but it was still useless.
At this time, Sarlayan and Valeela had lost their patience and launched an attack first. Muntadi, who was not well prepared, launched the attack in a conditional manner, hoping to use Frost Nova to control the two of them before switching to a third language.
Unexpectedly, his confident attack failed, and instead the two of them seized the opportunity and launched a combo.
Just when Sarlayan was about to take advantage of the victory and continue to use his killing moves, Montadi finally spoke the Qiraji language he could understand.
In today's era, there is no such complicated division of camps as in later generations. After all, there are only three forces.
Titan creations, elemental creatures, flesh and blood creatures, gone.
From the perspective of Montadi, who is an elemental creature, the soft-skinned Sarlayan and Valeela are obviously not those Titan creations with sharp bodies, and he can also be sure that the two have nothing to do with the elements.
Then there is nothing to say. These two people are definitely flesh-and-blood creatures under the command of the ancient god. They should be considered allies after all.
Sarlayan and Valeera communicated quietly through the soul link, and they both agreed that they should continue to fool Montadi for the time being, hoping to get more information.
Valeera raised her own question through the soul link channel: "Montadi? In my impression, there seems to be no water elemental lord around Neptulon with this name?"
Sarlayan: "I haven't heard of it at this stage, but I can't guarantee that he will not survive to the next generation."
"Only some of the water elemental lords brought to Azeroth by Neptulon's clone, and some stayed at the throat of the abyss in the water elemental world to prevent their hometown from being stolen by other elements when the rear is empty." Lan.
"Perhaps this Montadi is one of the water element lords who stayed in his hometown?"
Valeera curled her lips and argued: "It's also possible that he didn't survive the war at all. After all, this guy doesn't look very smart at first glance."
Unlike Valeela, Sarlayan did not think Muntadi was stupid, he just failed to escape the influence of the historical background and see through the true positions of Sarlayan and Valeela.
The Elemental Lords can be considered high-level personnel in the war between the Dark Empire and the Titan Creations, and Montardi does know a lot of important information.
The brief battle before made Montadi realize the strength of the two people. He guessed that Sarlayan and Valeela should be a species newly transformed by an ancient god, a specialized race specially designed to deal with Titan creations.
Sarlayan and Valeera did not deliberately correct Montardi's misunderstandings. They used his misunderstandings to get a lot of information that they had not been able to obtain before.
As Sharlayan speculated, Y'Shaarj was torn apart by Aman'Thul's hands thousands of years ago.
Since then, the secondary titans created by the Titans of the Pantheon have taken the original territory of Y'Shaarj as their base and gradually expanded their sphere of influence outwards.
The speed of Titan creations put the Ancient Gods who can also mass-produce flesh and blood creations to shame.
With enough iron and stone, the Lesser Titans can create an entire army with one click.
Enzos, the weakest among the five ancient gods, was attacked by a sea of Titan-made soldiers more than 800 years ago. It was also sealed in a ruined city of the Dark Empire called Ny'alotha.
After winning the battle, the Titans continued their attacks without stopping.
"If nothing unexpected happens." Montardi's eyes revealed a hint of schadenfreude: "C'Thun and Al'Akir will also be defeated within three years at the latest."
"Although Yogg-Saron is powerful, facing the army of Titan creations that has assembled all its forces, its failure is only a matter of time." Lan.
"The dark empire that has ruled Azeroth for countless millennia will probably come to an end soon."
Sarlayan raised his eyebrows slightly, looked at Montardi's transformed Jiebao face with a strange expression and asked: "It sounds like... you don't seem to be sad or worried about this, but rather gloating about it?"
Montardi smiled nonchalantly: "What else? You don't really think that the elemental creatures truly surrender to the ancient gods, do you?"
"...Of course, that idiot Ragnaros is a different matter."
"Ah this..."
The corners of Valeera's mouth twitched, and she complained to Sarlayan through the soul link: "The words fire and water are incompatible are indeed more than just words."
Before the ancient gods descended from the sky, the most fiercely contested among the four elements were the fire element and the water element.
As mentioned before, earth elements are naturally more Buddhist. They participate in the elemental war just because they don't want to be manipulated by other elements after they fail.
The foundation of the wind element is not originally on the earth, the sky is their home field.
Excluding these two elements that are not very motivated to fight, the only ones left fighting for control of the ancient Kalimdor continent are the water element and the fire element.
I wonder if it is due to nature, but the water element and the fire element have completely opposite positions and views in every aspect.
If you want to burn the earth, I will flood the world.
If you want to be a loyal dog to the ancient god, I will perform a faithful act for you.
Sarlayan rubbed his eyebrows in confusion: "Montadi, aren't you afraid that we will tell Yogg-Saron that the water element's stance is not firm enough?"
Montardi shrugged indifferently: "Please feel free to do so. The attitude of the water element is nothing new in the Dark Empire. We haven't survived until now."
"Besides..." Montardi smiled meaningfully: "Do you really think Yogg-Saron can still find time to clean up the interior?"
"As long as a sufficient supply of materials can be maintained, Titan creations can be produced endlessly."
"It is true that the Lesser Titans are leading the main force to attack C'Thun, but this does not mean that they will allow Yogg-Saron to accumulate strength in peace."
"Well..." Sarlayan touched his chin thoughtfully: "If, I mean if, the water element has a chance to have a place in the new world reshaped after the victory of Titan Creation, Montardi, what will you do?
make a choice?"
Montardi glanced at Saryan meaningfully: "How to choose? We don't choose anything."
"Boy, although I don't know which side you are on, please don't help Titan Creation to fool us." Lan
"Of course the ancient gods are not good people, and those Tin Woodmen are not good men and women either. Many high-level individuals among them are extremely hostile to all non-Titan life forms."
"I don't think those decisive secondary titans will let go of the elemental creatures that helped the ancient gods. You'd better be sparing in trying to persuade them to surrender."
"Is that really the case..."
Sarlayan shook his head and smiled bitterly. The failure to persuade him to surrender did not surprise him.
Just as Sarlayan analyzed Valeela before, the cards he holds in his hand are seriously insufficient now, and it is difficult to convince the water element to retreat, which is already determined to retreat.
Moreover, even if he performed his best to persuade the water element to surrender, he would not be able to convince those stone heads on the Titan Creation side.
The personalities and behavior of the Titan Guardians in this era are very different from those in the future, and Sarlayan is not sure that he can persuade them.
Just like what was discussed before the barrage, if he and Valeela walked up to the Titan Guardians in a big way, they would most likely be crushed to death on the spot as flesh and blood creatures under the command of the ancient gods, without even giving them a chance to explain.
.
This was normal practice during the war years.
"Um……"
Sarlayan scratched his head in distress: "Then let me put it another way."
"Montadi, have you... and the tide hunter Neptulon behind you, have you considered the future of the water element?"
Montardi's eyes flickered: "The future? Do we still have a future?"
"The fate of Ragnaros and his fire elements is our future. Sooner or later, all elements will be driven to the sub-plane seal outside the material world. This is a fate that we cannot escape." Lan
Sarlayan shook his head meaningfully: "I didn't mean to say this. The future I'm talking about is far beyond this."
"You don't want to be sealed in the elemental world forever, unable to return to your hometown, right?"
