Chapter 1286 If you want to live a decent life...Thorim, you understand, right?
As the leader of magic, Shaohao took the initiative to leave the material world, and the fog that had guarded Pandaria for thousands of years finally began to dissipate.
Most of the pandaren living in Pandaria did not have a clear understanding of this, but the four gods sitting in their respective temples immediately noticed the changes in the outside world.
"This is……"
White Tiger Xuenu strolled outside the main hall of White Tiger Temple and looked up at the sky thoughtfully.
"After so many years, we once again relied on our power, and then the fog dissipated. Could it be that... Shaohao's mission has been completed?"
Baihu Temple is located in the east of Kunlai Mountain, not too far from the top of the mountains where the emperor's tomb is located.
As the saying goes, the clouds follow the dragon and the wind follows the tiger. Xuenu, who felt something in his heart, rose into the sky, walked on the wind blowing by the howling wind, and was the first to reach his destination on the top of the mountain.
At this time, Sharlayan and Stellagosa had not had time to set off. Seeing Xuen landing in front of them with a confused look on their face, they could only give up the idea of leaving temporarily and wait for the four gods to gather and explain everything to them at once.
…
Since Shaohao transformed into the mist, the four gods of Pandaria have also been trapped in this continent, unable to leave, and have almost completely lost contact with the other wilderness demigods.
After learning that Shaohao had finally completed his mission and left Hexi with peace of mind, the four gods all had mixed emotions. They were both happy for the last emperor who was both their teacher and their friend, but also a little sad and regretful that they could not say goodbye to their old friend in person.
.
Sharlayan and Stellagosa had no time to accompany the four gods to mourn the spring and autumn.
After entrusting them to convey Shaohao's last words to the Golden Lotus Sect and the Shado-Pan, the big bird covered in golden-red flames took off again, changed direction and accelerated towards the Holy Platform of Mogu Mountain.
After the signal obstruction caused by the fog disappeared, Sarlayan was finally able to contact the Hall of Origin through the communication equipment provided by the Nalaksha Engine.
With the cooperation of the radiant creature Lajie, the leader of the four guardians of the Hall of Origin, Sarlayan successfully completed the connection between the Nalaksha Engine and the Origin Forge in only half a day.
...After all, the preliminary preparations have been completed long ago, and now only the final touches are needed.
"Buzz!"
Sufficient energy supply makes the slow-running Nalaksha engine make a loud buzzing sound, and the efficiency of the entire Titan creation production line is significantly improved.
At the same time, Loken, who was preparing for war in Ulduar, also felt the increasingly active rhythm of the Forge of Origin. Filled with fear, he was even more certain that the long-lost Great Guardian was coming back, and he was ready to mobilize all his troops to settle accounts with him.
coming.
Sharlayan was too lazy to pay attention to the battle of wits and courage between Loken and Air. As the fog of Pandaria dissipated, the pandaren needed to face a very real problem first.
The covet of the Zandalari trolls.
As early as tens of thousands of years ago, during the ancient period before Pandaria was sealed, the Pandaren had a bloody conflict with the Zandalari Empire who used the excuse to fulfill their promise to Thor.
Because the Zandalar elite suffered heavy losses when they accompanied the Mogu Empire in attacking Uldum, the war ended with the Pandaren successfully driving out the invaders.
Thousands of years have passed. Except for the Golden Lotus and the Shado-Pan who still remember the history and remember their feud with Zandalari, most pandaren have no concept of foreign invasion at all. The only thing they need to worry about is regular attacks.
of mantid.
The mist shielded Pandaria from all threats from the outside world. If it weren't for the presence of the mantid, Sharlayan suspected that the naturally optimistic pandaren might have abandoned their weapons long ago.
The Mantid side is okay. According to the cycle calculations summarized by the Pandaren, the time for the next Mantid invasion is still relatively far away.
The commotion caused by the Sha of Pride being sealed is not too big, and there will not be any sensitive reaction from the Mantid. What needs to be focused on right now is the situation of the Zandalari Empire not far from the mainland of Pandaria.
"Stella, tell Vol'jin through secret channels that if Zandalar shows any signs of sending troops to Pandaria, contact us immediately."
Stellagosa nodded solemnly: "I understand."
According to the information provided by the barrage, in the original history, Zandalari's second round of invasion of Pandaria was led by the prophet Zul, and his excuse was still the old almanac - to fulfill the agreement with Thor.
"Thor God? Ha..."
Sarlayan smiled disdainfully: "It's over. The God of Thunder has long since ceased to exist. I wonder what other excuses you can make shamelessly."
Many years ago, Sarlayan had breached the Thunder God's palace, completely extinguishing the last hope of resurrection for the traitor who betrayed his master, and also rescued the imprisoned Laden.
Zandalari has been coveting Pandaria for a long time, and even without the Thunder God as an excuse, they will not let go of this big piece of fat around them.
"The Pandaren are in urgent need of reform and re-establishing their country. This will inevitably cause some turmoil within Pandaria. Let's let them defend instead of attack."
Turning to look at the assembly line that was still producing Titan artifacts at full power, Sarlayan curled up his lips with a half-smile.
"Wait until I deal with the threat of Loken, then come back to Zandalari and slowly 'chat'."
…
After Loken took the initiative to pierce the window paper, the two titan creation production engines of Azeroth, one in the south and one in the north, entered full power operation one after another. This was an arms race with no smoke in sight for the time being.
But... although theoretically the energy supply and production efficiency are both at full capacity, in reality the output of the Nalaksha Engine will be faster than that of the Creator Engine.
This is a very simple reason. Sharlayan can mobilize most of Azeroth's resources to invest in the Nalak'sha Engine, while Loken's men who are trapped in Ulduar can only use a mere Storm Peak.
And it's not just the entire Storm Peaks. The other guardian clans will not obey Loken's orders honestly, especially the storm guardian Thorim.
After learning the truth about Sif's death from Alkavon, the furious Thorim almost impulsively rushed into Ulduar.
If Azadas hadn't arrived in time and forcibly suppressed the iron-headed boy, Thorim would have gone to Ulduar alone to kill him.
Although the unconscious Freya, Mimiron and Hodir will not completely obey Loken's orders, they will still instinctively launch a counterattack against the enemies who invade Ulduar.
Even if Yogg-Saron, who was hiding behind the scenes and controlled by remote control, didn't take action, Loken could easily defeat Thorim with four-on-one justice.
Sarlayan didn't want to play the gourd doll that the barrage mentioned to save his grandfather. Before the preparations for the war were completed, let's let the bullets fly for a while to see who had more resources.
The longer the delay, the more obvious the advantage that Sharlayan's side will gain with sufficient supplies. There is no need to have a stupid fight with Loken at this juncture.
What? Why should Thorim believe Alkavon's empty accusations?
Indeed, Thorim didn't believe it when he first heard from Alkavon that Sif had died at the hands of Loken. He even harshly accused Alkavon of trying to provoke infighting among the Guardians and planned to restore Alkavon to "factory settings."
”.
Alkavon is just a treasure trove guardian, so of course he can't defeat Thorim.
But this guy has one advantage: he knows the current affairs well enough.
Seeing that the furious Thorim planned to personally punish him, Alkavon did not hesitate to send his fastest Storm Warden Amarron to Wyrmrest Temple to ask for help from the Aspect Dragon in the name of Sarlayan.
Under the kind words of "persuasion" from Malygos and Alexstrasza who came after hearing the news, Thorim, who knew that he could not fight one against two, finally calmed down.
At the same time that Sarlayan arrived in Pandaria, Azadas and Elonaya rushed over with Uldaman's earth spirit army. The Earth Guardian also carried the source of the reason why he and Tyr were hunted down.
——The platinum disc that completely records the evidence of Loken's crime.
Using the playback equipment in the Wintergrasp treasure house, Azadas intuitively showed the ins and outs of Loken's affair with Sif to Thorim, who had a black island above his head.
Then... there is no more.
Thorim, who was filled with shame and anger, picked up the warhammer on the spot and tried to rush into Ulduar and smash Loken's dog head. The calm and steady Azadas cooperated with the two dragon kings to force the angry Thorim to calm down again.
Since the fog has dissipated, there is no longer any need for the ancestral turtles who know the way to help transport the rock mogu that have just left the factory. They can walk from the bottom of the sea to Northrend by themselves.
However, this method of transportation is too time-consuming.
Under Sharlayan's operation, Stellagosa led the Pandaren mages to take action together, using the Fountain of Youth in the Vale of Eternal Blossoms as an energy supply unit to establish contact with the Crystalsong Forest Magic Network far away in Northrend.
The Titan creations after leaving the factory can be directly transported through the newly built permanent portal to the front line bordering Crystalsong Forest and Storm Peaks in one step, giving Loken a little Quel'Thalas-like shock.
After building the most convenient troop transportation channel, Sarlayan began to worry about the issue of high-end combat power.
"That guy from Laideng...can't attract him out even with such a big movement? Where did he hide?"
Stellagosa made a suggestion: "How about we ask Odin?"
"As a leader among the Titan Guardians, maybe he will know where Laiteng has gone."
