"Fenris, stop your suicide attempt! I have a way!"
The orcs discovered that as long as they did not try to get close to the Dark Portal, the Cyclops would not attack. In the end, when more than a thousand people were lost, Fenris had no choice but to blow towards it under Drek'Thar's persuasion.
The horn of retreat.
"Drek'Thar, is what you just said true or false? It's not a lie to persuade us to retreat, is it?"
Fenris looked at Drek'Thar with a suspicious look. The orcs had been deceived too many times. They were given hope time and time again, but the bubbles in front of them were burst again and again. The orcs could no longer bear this sense of disillusionment.
Don't get deceived again.
"I'm not lying to you, I do have a way, but..."
However, before Drek'Thar could finish speaking, there was a cry of surprise among the orcs. It turned out to be four dragon kings descending from the sky.
The pressure brought by the four giant dragons swooping down cannot be underestimated, but after reaching the ground, these four dragon kings all transformed into human forms.
The dragon kings seem to prefer the elves as a race. Three of them have borrowed the appearance of the elves, but Nozdormu and Malygos look closer to the upper elves, while Ysera has the face of Kaldorei.
"Orc, tell me your method."
The bearded Nozdormu walked up to Drek'Thar and asked directly. The old shaman said after expressing respect for these great beings.
"I think we should invite everyone from the alliance to discuss this matter together."
Fenris and the orcs finally set up camp in a wasteland northeast of the Dark Portal. They didn't care about the alliance watching them nearby. The orcs now could be said to have lost their direction. They only had one thought:
go home.
Perhaps the appearance of these orcs was so miserable that neither Lothar nor Li De ordered an attack on them.
In the middle of the two sides, a small camp was surrounded. In this camp were gathered four dragon kings, Lothar, Li De, Turalyon, Khadgar, Fenris, Lantrisso...
…high-level officials from all parties involved in the war.
However, these people gathered together not to negotiate, but to watch a large-scale negotiation hosted by Chief Drektar Shaman and Elder Takshiro, with the help of the Vast Sea Protector Troll Witch Doctor Shaman.
Spiritual ceremony.
During this war, we unknowingly arrived at the eighth year of the opening of the Dark Portal, and the first major event in the eighth year of the Dark Portal was that the orcs and Azeroth began to expand on the shamanic level.
exchanged.
The orc shaman's understanding of the soul far exceeds that of the various shamans in Azeroth. The profound and profound ritual techniques of the shamans in Azeroth are also refreshing to Drek'Thar.
Takshiro, who has always presented himself as a scholar, is now wearing a skull mask, his bare upper body is covered with mysterious white paint, and his back is filled with staffs with teeth, bones, furs, and herbs. Takshiro
Loa's attire is very different from the regular Troll Witch Doctor Shaman. This is because the Loa he believes in is Bwonsamdi, the god of death.
The troll shamans of the Hanhai Protector all wore lightning-struck wood masks. Some of them were shaking spiritualist wands with psychic abilities in their hands, while others were standing aside waiting for orders.
Drek'Thar, wearing a wolf-headed hat, silently recited the incantation of Ji Qu Nie Ya, summoned the four elements of earth, water, fire and wind, and blew a whirlwind around the altar.
After that, Drektal followed Takshiro's teachings, took out a handful of Gazrilla's ashes from the urn in front of him, and blew them into the air.
"Dong~"
"Dong dong~"
…
The shaman who stood at attention took out the lizard skin drum and started beating it using the wolf tibia as a whip. As the sound of the drum became faster and faster, the sky above the Cursed Land became darker.
What's even more strange is that the ashes that were blown away before neither dispersed with the wind nor fell into dust, but were suspended in the air and began to form a clear shape!
Those ashes gave off a mysterious light, and a huge face appeared in front of everyone! It was a one-eyed face with angular edges like a mountain!
Although it has only one eye, this eye is extremely agile. It first saw the four Dragon Kings standing at the altar. Looking at the four Dragon Kings, the one eye actually showed a look of joy, and then the simple and mysterious face
It finally spoke, but as soon as it opened its mouth, it said a name that made the dragon kings unable to calm down.
"Agrama."
This name alone confirmed Nozdormu's guess that the owner of the skeleton, the Cyclops, was indeed a Titan creation! The name it mentioned was the Titan from the Pantheon!
It was this Titan named Aggramar who gave his courage and strength to the great Titan Guardian: Tyr!
Drek'Thar didn't know what meaning this name had to the dragons, but he finally confirmed what he thought in his heart. This man had been lying in Frostfire Ridge and witnessed countless springs and autumns - including the elder Drek'Thar.
There is still an ancient unquenchable soul in the body of this huge mysterious skeleton, even if this soul is just a weak flame!
"Ancestors follow the example, all things have animism! Please great life, enlighten our wisdom..."
Drek'Thar clasped his hands together and raised them above his head, praising the Cyclops. The scene that flashed through his mind before made him know that the soul in the skeleton was trapped in a plane and could not escape. Now this skeleton
Becoming Ner'zhul's puppet was not his intention.
"Sir of Magolon, you can finally talk to me..."
The Cyclops looked at Drek'Thar and said happily, and then told everyone a magnificent story:
Its name is Crotho, and it is the descendant of "Grond", the creation of the Titan Aggramar.
In ancient times, when the Titan Aggrama was walking in the void of the universe, he discovered an unnamed world. This world was inhabited by powerful spore plant life forms, and those plants could even prey on large animals in the unnamed world.
These wildly growing plants have taken over the entire world, and their greed surprised even the titan Aggramar. If these plants continue to grow, they may one day cause the entire world to collapse.
In order to suppress these crazy plants, Aggramar used the four elements of this world, earth, water, fire and wind, to create a giant called "Grond" that was taller than the mountain.
Grond followed the Titan's instructions and eradicated those spore plants that were growing wildly. The powerful spore plants had various roots entwined with each other underground and had long since merged into one. In order to prevent resistance to destruction, these spore plants were entangled and aggregated into a giant walking plant.
Life, fighting Grond in the form of a plant giant.
During the battle, although Grond severely damaged the spore flora, his body was also torn apart by the roots of the plants. Grond collapsed and his body was scattered on the ground, and his body turned into Nag
The mountains of the Lan Highlands, and his head turned into the "Throne of Elements" of Nagrand!
The four materialized kings of the elements live in this elemental throne, forever commemorating Grond's great achievements.
In addition to turning into natural remains, the stones scattered from Grond's body turned into a group of Crothos that were not as huge as Grond, but were still huge.
The Crothos continued Grond's mission and fought against the remaining spore plants. During the long battle, after some Crothos died in battle, some smaller giants were born from the remains, named Magog.
Long.
A more serious problem than dying in battle is the continued impact of plant spores on the giants.
Magoron began to degenerate, giving birth to many smaller descendants, including the degenerated first generation "Gron", the degenerated second generation "One-eyed Demon Ogoron", the degenerated third generation "Ogre", and the degenerated third generation.
Fourth generation: Orcs.
After knowing where his race came from, Drek'Thar was stunned.
It’s not that the orcs aren’t curious about the origin of their race, otherwise they wouldn’t respect the spirits of their ancestors so much.
It's just that no shaman has ever been able to explain clearly the origin of the orcs before. Now I listen to Crosso's emotionless and dimensionally reduced story about the birth of the orcs.
This has had a significant impact on the ideological realm of the entire race of orcs. As a shaman chief, Drek'Thar's most important thing is the spiritual world.
However, there are still people who care more about practical issues.
"I don't want to know how the orcs got here, I just want to know how the orcs didn't exist.
If you really want to be the ancestor of our orcs, then don’t block our way home!”
Fenris rushed to the altar and shouted that he didn't care about anything now, and that all reverence and education were just clouds in the face of life and death.
Drek'Thar wanted to explain to Fenris that the Crosso in front of him was not the specific ancestor of the orcs. Strictly speaking, it could only be said to be very closely related to the orcs.
But after thinking about it, he didn't do this unnecessary thing, but looked at Crosso with the same questioning eyes.
What is its attitude toward its skeleton blocking the door to darkness?
"This is not Crosso's mission. My soul is imprisoned by a person, and he prevents me from being free.
I ask you to release my soul, let my bones decay naturally, let my soul dissipate naturally, and stop doing these things that are not my intention."
Crosso's attitude made everyone happy, but his words were pure nonsense.
Who here didn't want his bones to rot? But the question was what method should be used, and Crosso finally gave the answer with some reluctance.
"The plant spores of Evergreen Woodland can corrode my remains."
Things have entered an endless loop: if Crosso doesn't get out of the way, how can he go through the Dark Portal to get the plant spores? If he doesn't get through the Dark Portal and get the plant spores, how can he ask Crosso to get out of the way.
This is a complete paradox.
Just when everyone thought that this was a worthless idea, Khadgar spoke.
"Actually, it is possible for me to enter the orc world without going through the Dark Portal.
During the previous battle, I used Atiesh to leave a mark on Ner'zhul.
In the process just now, I have been trying to lock Ner'zhul's position.
After all, we are separated by the vast void, so there may be deviations in the teleportation location, but I have a 90% probability of being able to teleport to the world of the orcs."
After all, it is the power of the guardian that can do things that ordinary mages cannot do.
Khadgar said that he could bring up to three people to teleport with him. A total of four people would go looking for plant spores to corrode Crosso's skeleton from inside the Dark Portal.
When deciding on the candidates, Drek'Thar and Takshiro were chosen first. There must be an orc to lead the way, and the troll elder can cooperate with the orc shaman for channeling.
Of course, Takshiro also has a selfish intention. He hopes to truly set foot in the world of the orcs to study their history. Because from Crosso's narration, Takshiro found a line connecting the orc world and Azeroth.
.
As for the last candidate, Li De decided to come forward.
