The mantids of this era are not yet able to breed a large number of Klaxxi Heroes in a streamlined manner like later generations.
But after all, they had just come down from their prime, and almost all of the mantid elites besieging Mimiron were legendary masters.
However, the problem is that Mimiron, who still has the body of a guardian, is a full-fledged demigod. Although he is lower in strength among the Titan Guardians, it is not something that the Mantid, who lacks high-end combat power, can easily win.
After Y'shaarj died, all the Xeraki under his command were pried away by other ancient gods, leaving only these foolish and loyal mantids still guarding Pandaria after their master fell, unwilling to give up.
It was precisely because of the remaining combat power of the Mantid that the Titan Guardians allowed the relatively low-strength Mimiron to sit here alone.
Don't look at Mimiron's individual combat ability ranking at the bottom. If you include his weird inventions, even the strongest Odin and Laden will be in trouble if they fail to take corresponding precautions in advance.
A big loss.
For example, if you have high shadow resistance, okay, I will give the weapon a holy light plug-in that can restrain the shadow from each other, and specifically hit your weak side, and vice versa, highlighting a flexible target.
According to the information provided by Freya, Mimiron has been guarding this valley for thousands of years. With his ability and character, he has already arranged an impenetrable porcupine array around the underground palace that seals Y'Shaarj's heart.
This is not the first time that the Mantid has launched an attack on the Vale of Eternal Blossoms, but in the past thousand years, they have never really broken through Mimiron's defense.
No matter how many troops the Mantid gathered, Mimiron was able to block them out of the underground palace with the help of a large number of weapon arrays set up in advance, and they were still unable to get past the barrier.
"Actually, the problem facing the Mantid is very clear."
Sarlayan stood on a hilltop with his arms folded and looked at the slaughterhouse below: "They lack a key person who can make the final decision."
"Unless they can get a Xeraki to entangle Mimiron's robot, it will be impossible to break through such a tight defense with a suicide attack alone."
Valeera took over the words and said: "Yog-Saron and C'Thun are still unable to protect themselves. They have no spare power at all, and it is impossible to send Xeraki to reinforce the Mantid. Their efforts are destined to be in vain.
"
As the two analyzed, until more than half of the Mantid's cannon fodder troops were lost, their elite combat power still failed to break through Mimiron's defense.
In order to leave enough fire for the next attack, the mantid commander had no choice but to order the withdrawal.
A large number of corpses were abandoned in the riddled Vale of Eternal Blossoms, and the remaining mantids fluttered their wings and evacuated out of the valley in embarrassment.
Mimiron did not intend to take the initiative to pursue. Most of the weapons he deployed were focused on positional defense and were not good at counterattack.
"Hey! Lackeys of the Old Gods! Accept this parting gift!"
The robot piloted by Mimiron suddenly made new moves when the Mantid began to retreat.
Whether it was a personal bad taste or a simple coincidence, the crotch armor of the giant robot deformed and unfolded to both sides, and a huge cannon whose muzzle began to shine with arcane brilliance was ejected along the track.
"Buzz!"
A faint blue beam of light shot straight into the sky. As Mimiron controlled the robot's hips to move sideways, a large number of unsuspecting mantids were shot down from the sky.
"Ah this..."
Under Valeera's rather strange gaze, Sarlayan's eyebrows twitched: "Is it necessary to install the cannon in this position..."
In Sharlayan's opinion, Mimiron was probably unintentional.
To put it half-jokingly, Sarlayan suspected that when the Titans of the Pantheon created the sub-Titans, they did not even install reproductive systems on them. Without that organ, naturally there would be no corresponding evil thoughts.
Pulling up his hood and scarf, Sarlayan said helplessly to Valeela: "Let's go. In order to obtain the other half of the Titan Guardian's intelligence supply channels, we must meet with Mimiron in person."
...梫
Mimiron, whose mind has not been corrupted by the ancient gods, is undoubtedly a wise man among the Titan Guardians. Similar to him is Loken, the Guardian of Wisdom.
There are still countless mantid corpses and a large number of weapons destroyed in the battle in the Vale of Eternal Blossoms. The mechanical gnomes made by Mimiron have begun to diligently clean up the battlefield.
In such a smoke-filled environment, the meeting between Sarlayan and Mimiron was without any fireworks. Mimiron was very enthusiastic about their arrival.
"Wow, are you the mysterious person Freya mentioned in the communication?"
The huge robot half-knelt in front of the underground palace door, and Mimiron jumped directly out of the cockpit on the robot's chest.
"boom!"
The Titan Guardian's body mass was so large that Mimiron caused a small earthquake when he landed.
In a half-crouched position when he landed, the great inventor, who was wearing some kind of high-tech headband, looked at the two completely faceless strangers in front of him with interest.
"Welcome to Pandaria, I am Freya's colleague Mimiron."
"Ha, think about it carefully." Mimiron said with emotion: "How long has it been since I had a serious face-to-face communication with other intelligent creatures? 1,200 years? Or 1,500 years?"
Sarlayan raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Aren't mantids considered intelligent creatures?"
"Harmful!"
Mimiron waved his hand with a constipated look on his face: "I would like to persuade them not to come here regularly to die needlessly, but those bugs who use the hive network to communicate with their souls will not answer my words at all."
"By dissecting the mantid's body, I discovered a depressing fact."
"Due to the long-term use of the hive mind network that can communicate with each other without opening their mouths, most of the vocal organs of those bugs have deteriorated to the point that they can no longer speak."
Through Mimiron's proactive disclosure of the information, Sarlayan and Valeela quickly realized a problem.
I don't know if it was because he couldn't communicate with others for a long time, but Mimiron was holding back his words.
At least at this stage, it seems that this guy is a real talker, and he can't stop talking.
In order to prevent Mimiron from taking the topic further and further, Sarlayan took the initiative to interrupt his long and irrelevant remarks.
"Creating Guardian Mimiron, we are here to..."
"Haha! I know."
Mimiron put his hands on his hips and said with a smile: "Freya has already told me the whole story."
"Since you have your own difficulties and it is not convenient to reveal your true identity, for the sake of Xinghun's willingness to trust you, I am also willing to provide help to you."
"But it's a pity."
Mimiron shrugged and said: "During the time I was in Pandaria, I didn't encounter any major events worth talking about. It was just a regular response to mantid suicide attacks."
"But speaking of this..."
Mimiron, who seemed a little out of tune, suddenly corrected his attitude: "Before the Mantid launched the latest round of attacks, the mecha gnomes I sent to collect intelligence across Pandaria brought back some strange information."
"According to Loken, the Magic Network of Azeroth centered on the Well of Eternity... seems to be the term, right?"
"In short, this so-called magic network is spreading around the Well of Eternity."
"If the results of my survey are correct..." Mimiron stood up straight and stamped his feet on the ground: "This valley is one of the gathering points of the magic network, and it is also the largest one."
"Magic Network...?"
The information provided by Mimiron made Sharlayan and Valeera look at each other.
As people from later generations, they certainly know what the Magic Network is and have their own opinions on how to use it.
However, in the current ancient era, Spellweaver Malygos has not yet appeared, and the magic network of Azeroth is still in a very primitive and unmanaged barbaric growth stage.
Just as Mimiron said, the Vale of Eternal Blossoms is one of the largest magic network nodes in Azeroth.
According to the information that Sharlayan obtained from the historical documents of the Pandaren, in the era where Sharlayan and Valeela originally lived, the Vale of Eternal Blossoms still retained part of the well water from the Well of Eternity, which is what the legend of Pandaria said.
The fountain of youth.
"I probably understand your concerns."
Sarlayan said to Mimiron thoughtfully: "If this is true, perhaps in the near future, the valley you guard will become the largest magic network node, and even part of the eternal well water will pass through.
The magic network pipeline flows back here."
"That's true..."
Mimiron scratched his head with a headache: "If the Mantids discover these magic network nodes that contain the power of the Well of Eternity, they will definitely go crazy and launch another attack."
"Boy, can I ask you a favor?"
Mimiron solemnly said to Sarlayan and Valeela: "As you can see, because of my duties, I cannot leave the vicinity of this underground palace."
"I hope you can help me cover up the coming Well of Eternity before the Mantid launches its next attack, and try not to let the Mantid discover this fact."
