Chapter 1228 Sharlayan: Did CThun take the wrong medicine?
Although Sarlayan made a lot of troubles in the Shadow Realm, the only Eternals who had personal contact with him were the Winter Queen and her eldest daughter Gristia.
The Winter Queen and "Moon God" Elune are sisters, and they are one of the top bosses on the death side and the life side respectively.
Compared with Gristia, Sarlayan has spent more time in contact with the Winter Queen, and has some understanding of the Eternal One's character.
In a word, the Winter Queen is not simply incompetent like Gristia, she just has no interest in asking questions about many things.
In the words of Danmu, the character of the Queen of Winter is too Buddhist, and her leadership qualities are worrisome.
As for Gristia...ignore her, why would you expect too much from a foreman who is responsible for greeting guests?
Sarlayan has not met Denathrius in person, but he has been a "divine friend" of him for a long time, and is no stranger to Denathrius's style and methods.
Excluding the above three people, among the five Eternals, Sarlayan doesn't know much about Zoval and the War Master.
Based on the information provided by the barrage, Sarlayan, who thought he was standing on the outside, gave Zovar and the soldier different objective evaluations.
Saryan believed that Zovar was a paranoid idealist.
His starting point may have been good, but unfortunately he took the wrong path and used too extreme methods in the process of achieving his goal. In the end, he was exiled by the four brothers and sisters who could not bear it.
Interestingly, the four Eternals had different evaluations of Zoval when they exiled him, representing their respective positions and personalities.
Although the eldest daughter Gristi's abilities are worrisome, her outlook on life is the most righteous among the five Eternals.
Her accusation against Zoval was "a betrayal of duty."
The Winter Queen commented that Zoval "destroyed the cycle of life and death."
Denathrius believed that Zoval was too extreme, that there should be a "better solution", and that he should join forces with him to deal with the threat.
Where is the soldier?
The war leader didn't comment on anything, just asked a question before banishing Zoval.
Why do this.
Zoval's answer revealed his original intention. He wanted to rewrite the rules set by the Firstborn to allow the material universe to survive the threat of something that would come in the future.
As for what this so-called cosmic-level threat is, Danmu doesn't know. Anyway, it is definitely not the group of elemental dragon kings in the next version who can only play tricks within Azeroth.
Until now, Sarlayan's evaluation of the war master is... an excellent chess player with great vision and a real leader among the Eternals.
Without some unexpected clues discovered during this journey that transcended time and space, Sarlayan would not have doubted this seemingly very upright leader of the Shadow Realm.
"think carefully……"
Faced with Valeela's seemingly pointed question, Sarlayan did not answer directly, but said in an incomprehensible tone: "Why did the commander of the army fall into Lingwu's trap so easily?"
"With his overall view and strategic ability, can he really not see the little tricks Denathrius does behind the scenes?"
Valeela's face changed slightly, and her hands holding the reins were slightly harder.
"You mean, the soldier might have been captured by Zoval and Denathrius on purpose? But why did he do that?"
Saryan: "There are not enough clues. With the information we have now, it is difficult to analyze the logical results."
Sarlayan was also quite puzzled by this: "If you make a bold hypothesis, maybe the soldier wants to fish deliberately? In order to eliminate Zoval and Denathius, the only two Eternals who can pose a threat to him?"
"But...this baseless inference is completely untenable."
According to the future intelligence provided by the barrage, until the end of version 100, the leader's position was always positive, and no flaws were exposed at all.
"My head hurts."
During the rapid running, Sarlayan, who transformed into a tank bug, shook his head slightly.
"Let's stop here for the time being with assumptions without any evidence. Maybe the soldier master does have his own considerations behind this, but this does not mean that his position must be contrary to ours."
"There are not so many black and white distinctions between good and evil in this world. Everyone has their own different positions. The conflicts between different forces are still, in the final analysis, a struggle for interests."
"really."
Valeera also temporarily put aside her worries and analysis of the dark side of the soldier's humanity.
"No matter what the soldier's plan is behind his back, as long as he is willing to stand on the side of protecting the peace and justice of the universe, there is really no need for us to be the enemy of this powerful Eternal One."
"on the contrary……"
Valeela's eyes became deeper: "If one day the war master, Denathrius or some other big boss jumps out and threatens the interests of Azeroth..."
Sarlayan took the words and said: "No matter how strong their power is, in order to protect our hometown and family, we must not hesitate to show our swords to the enemy."
…
When the Dark Empire ruled Azeroth, the competition between the ancient gods was still very primitive. It was nothing more than a back-and-forth competition between you and me. There were not as many twists and turns as in the future war mode.
.
The conspiracy and conspiracy are new "weapons" that the ancient gods gradually developed due to lack of power during the tens of thousands of years after they were sealed.
Just like the way the late Archimonde thought about things.
Why should the ancient gods in their heyday bother to rely on small tricks of conspiracy and calculation when they can use the simplest and most direct way to deal with the enemy?
Since there has never been any experience in dealing with this kind of situation, the city of Ahn'Qiraj's defense against espionage is almost non-existent.
Although there were several tall bug guards outside the city gate, they did not question Valeera too much when she visited Ahn'Qiraj riding a tank bug.
After learning that this short faceless man came from a long-abandoned village and planned to start a new life in Ahn'Qiraj, the insect guards readily let him go.
Valeela swaggered and lined up to enter the Holy City of Ahn'Qiraj while riding the tank bugs transformed from Sharlayan.
This chapter is not finished yet, please click on the next page to continue reading the exciting content! It must be said that as one of the few large cities in this era, the city of Ahn'Qiraj is indeed very prosperous.
Insects and faceless men entering and leaving the city had to wait in line. This orderly scene made Sarlayan want to complain.
"Isn't the Ancient God a creature from the shadow side? Who did you learn this set of standardized management methods from?"
Valeera shrugged and joked in the soul link: "Maybe he is self-taught? After all, the Dark Empire has existed for tens of thousands of years. No matter how stupid the people in power are, after such a long time, they should have summarized some useful ideas.
Let it be a law that is conducive to management.”
The tank bug couldn't speak. During the boring process of queuing, Sarlayan and Valeera passed the time by joking in the soul link channel, and from time to time they would make some jokes with the barrage.
"Ha, if you think about it, Dark Empire should be following the biotechnology route."
"How did you say that?"
"The machine is weak and the flesh and blood are soaring?"
...Isn’t it the other way around? It’s because the flesh and blood are weak, so it’s better to ascend mechanically.】
】
Family members, come and watch! There is an honest man here!]
Although Sarlayan's words were obviously meant as a joke, upon closer inspection, it turned out to be true.
The Old Gods are representative products of flesh-and-blood creatures, and the concept of flesh-and-blood curse runs through the entire history of Azeroth.
On the planet Azeroth, except for the native species of trolls, the night elves and various elven branches that evolved from the dark trolls bathing in the energy of the Well of Eternity, almost all the mainstream races in Azeroth are
Related to the curse of flesh and blood.
Some barrages once boldly proposed the hypothesis that trolls existed in Azeroth earlier than the Titans noticed Azeroth.
After being sent to this era by Nozdormu, after questioning Freya and conducting some personal investigations, Sarlayan could clearly tell them that this statement was pure nonsense.
Excluding the Aqirs and Faceless Men transformed from the Old Gods, the birth of trolls indeed precedes any native intelligent species in Azeroth.
But at least in this era, those fanged monsters are far from appearing.
After tens of thousands of years of exploration and development, the ancient gods of the Dark Empire, in the context of competition and cooperation with each other, gradually developed a set of evolutionary routes that are most suitable for ancient gods.
Even though they are also called Aqirs, the racial categories within the Insects are in full bloom.
These insect-men with different appearances and specialties, as well as the various bases derived from the Faceless Man Enraki, are the results of many years of research by the five ancient gods.
Perhaps because most of the energy is focused on the ascension of flesh and blood, the urban architectural style of the Dark Empire does not look high-tech, but the population is really large.
"Um?!"
As soon as they entered the prosperous Holy City of Ahn'Qiraj, Sarlayan was discussing with Valeera where to stay first, when an inexplicable feeling of being spied on came to the door.
"...it feels numb."
Sarlayan smiled bitterly and signaled Valeela to prepare to run away: "What kind of gunpowder has this guy C'Thun taken? Why is he so sensitive?"
"Buzz!"
A C'Thun eyeball suddenly appeared in front of Sarlayan and Valeera. As the eyeball flickered with a purple-black dark light, Valeera's transformation spell was forcibly dispelled on the spot, but Sarlayan remained.
