69. Northland Fengyun. Hall of the Rocks

Defensive posts and walls were set up outside the main city for all important military installations, especially in times of war.

The establishment of the Titan City of Ulduar coincided with the era when the Titan Guardians were ordered by the Titans to form an Iron Legion to fight against the Dark Empire of the Elder Gods, so outside the Titan City of Ulduar, there was also a circular steel wall to defend this sacred city, and on both sides of the wall, there were outposts outside Ulduar, or Acropolis.

"In my memory, the Rock Hall was the residence of the earth spirits, and it was also one of the breeding grounds of the earth spirits."

In the Explorers' Guild's base camp in the Snowdrift Plains, the female guardian Elonnaya is explaining to the people in front of her in the form of magical illusions the strange technology imprinted on the stone tablet of Ulduar, while also telling stories about Ulduar.

"In my time, the Earth Spirits were the premier shapers of the Thunderforge Legion, they were adept at using the power of the earth to heal the wounds of the Thundercast soldiers, and they were also powerful spellcasters, their earth magic was powerful, and the king of the Earth Spirit was Yurel. Stone Heart, who was given the Divine Scepter of Creation by the Guardians, carried with him was the fragment of the Hammer of Navarnar, a scepter full of Titan power that accompanied Yurell. Stone Heart's death and complete collapse. ”

Elonnaya sighed very humanly:

"In short, tens of thousands of years ago, when I left Ulduar with the great Tyr, the Earth Spirits should still be living in the Rock Hall, and in the rebellion set off by the traitor Lorcan, his Thundercast soldiers tried to storm the Rock Hall, but failed repeatedly, and I don't know what happened to those Earth Spirits now."

"In other words, the Rock Hall is the origin of the earth spirits and dwarves?"

Brian's small eyes shone brightly, and he asked seriously:

"So the great ancestor Aronnaya, do you think we can find the secret of the origin of the dwarves in it?"

"Blonzan, I've said it many times."

Alonnaya explained helplessly:

"Dwarves are the life that evolved after the Earth Spirit was cursed by the flesh and blood, your origin is the Earth Spirit, and the story about the Earth Spirit, I have described it to you many times, I can only tell you that in the deepest part of the Rock Hall, there is a Titan Engine that can derive the Earth Spirit, but even if you master that engine, you can only make pure Earth Spirits and not Dwarves... In fact, your flesh transformation is irreversible. ”

"I don't want you to use that earth engine for war... It seems to me that the war between you and the undead is completely pointless, it is just stupid internal friction. ”

"That's our business, Lord Elonnaya, Ironforge must be recaptured!"

Muradin, who was sitting on the other side, said in a deep voice:

"Of course we won't force our ancient brothers to join our wars, but you've assured us that Ulduaris has hidden technology that can help us win wars..."

"Yes, there are weapons of war you need."

Female Guardian Elonnaya reluctantly said:

"If I'm not mistaken, in the Hall of Lightning, there should be two fully formed, unactivated Thunderforge Legions in the battle storehouse of that hall, which are a terrifying force, and in the antechamber of Ulduar, there are also a large number of Iron Life Corps hidden among the thousands of storm beacons, which are the armies of the Dark Empire that once defeated the Elder Gods head-on, but to be honest, I don't recommend you go directly to these two places..."

"The Hall of Lightning is the palace of Loken the Betrayer, if he is still there, then it is impossible to defeat him by relying on you warriors alone, Locan is the guardian of wisdom, the lightning he summons can easily kill all of you, and you have also seen the map, if you do not open the signs of the Hall of Lightning and the Hall of Rocks, you will not be able to enter the inner city of Ulduar..."

Elonnaya's words fell, and Muradin and Brian looked at each other, and the dwarven war prince coughed lightly:

"So, you mean, suggesting that we go to the Rock Hall first?"

"Yes!"

The female guardian did not hide her expectations, she said calmly:

"First of all, there is an ancient court inside the Rock Hall that is responsible for managing the authority of all Titan creations, if it can pass the detection of the court, then the Titan Creation authority owned by Blonzan will be increased again, which means that Blonzan can use the Titan console in the Rock Hall to remotely lock the activation permission of the Thunderforge Legion inside the Lightning Hall before entering the Lightning Hall, so that the betrayer Lorcan can only fight you alone."

"Secondly, I remember that not long ago you met some local earth spirit descendants on the border of the snowflow plains, and you said that they did not want to contact you, I think this is probably because of the flesh curse on your body, but if Bronzan can pass the detection of the ancient court, then those earth spirits will most likely be on your side, that is, when you enter Ulduar, you will have an extra reinforcement army."

"Finally, a little bit of my personal needs."

Elonnaya's magical illusion waved his arm:

"My body has been broken for too long, and in the inner sanctum of the Rock Hall, there should be several female guardian backup bodies that can carry the core of my mind, and I've had enough of the bad feeling of not having a body."

The female Guardian's voice became muffled, with a hint of murder in it:

"20,000 years ago, Lorcan the Betrayer killed the great Guardian of Justice Tyr with a disgusting and obscene conspiracy, and as Lord Tyr's lieutenant, I have a duty to avenge Lord Tyr! As a member of the Guardians, it's my duty to smash the culprit's head with my own hands! ”

Elonnaya raised her head and looked at the two dwarves and pandamen in front of her, and she said in a deep voice:

"While I have little interest in your war, Blonzan and Muradin, if you can help me execute Lorken the Betrayer, I'll help you awaken the Thunderforge Legion in the Hall of Lightning and Ulduar... Then hand over their command to you, and those two legions will be enough to help you retake your city, but you must promise me in advance that you can't use these legions in wars against other civilizations! ”

"No problem!"

Muradin's quick yes, and after Elonnaya told him a little more about the dangers in the Hall of Rocks, he withdrew his consciousness into the core of consciousness when the magic of the magic stone wore off.

The conversation between the Titan Guardian and the two dwarves made Zhou Zhuo, who was sitting on the side, frown, the panda man hated war, and he cautiously said to the two dwarves:

"Are you going to fight the Darkblade Legion?"

"Huh? Do you know the Dark Blade, too? ”

Muradin glanced at Zhou Zhuo:

"Didn't you just come out of Pandaria?"

"Because Pandaria also has the whereabouts of the Darkblade Legion!"

Zhou Zhuo explains:

"The bloody battle between our civilization and the mantis demon was stopped by the undead of the Dark Blade, and they helped us prevent the catastrophe of extermination, so although the panda people are difficult to accept the life form of the necromancer, we still have good intentions towards the Dark Blade Legion... Well, I've heard a few things about Ironforge, and I'm not saying that your war is wrong, but I think these things can be resolved through negotiations. ”

"If you don't hurt them, those undead won't sit at the negotiating table."

Muradin's tone was gloomy, and he gritted his teeth and said:

"Tyrion has killed my loved ones, and this account between the Copperbeard family and him will be paid in blood! Of course, we are not crazy, and we are not reckless in starting a full-scale war between the dwarves and the undead, this is just an internal affair of the Copperbeard family... It has nothing to do with the two races, and when I take back Ironforge, I'll challenge him! Either he dies, or I die, and all hatred will end. ”

"The main thing right now is to keep the Rock Hall in our hands."

Brian picked up and said:

"War or something, I'll leave it later, but about the Hall of Lightning, Muradin, you also heard the warning of the ancestors of Elonnaya that we dwarves alone can't fight against that fallen guardian... We need help! ”

"Then send an invitation to Arthas Jr., Varian Jr., and that orc Thrall!"

Muradin waved his hand and said loudly:

"Didn't they always want to be part of the Ulduar program? Now's your chance... As long as they help us take out Loken, and once Ulduar is opened, we'll share the valuable knowledge of the Titan City with their archaeologists..."

"Of course, all of this will have to be said after we take down the Rock Hall!"

That night, in the second group according to the route of the Map Club, the dwarf heading to the Rock Hall was about to set off, and Zhou Zhuo, a traveling scholar wearing a thick fluffy coat, was nervously guarding the door of a certain room in the base camp, this panda man looked sneaky, holding a chandelier in one hand, and his eyes were still looking left and right from time to time, as if he was doing something bad, and he was afraid that someone would find out.

In the room behind him, the dwarf vampire Ella. The magic thread was quickly using professional rubbing tools, trying to rub down the map of Ulduar on the stone slab, and Ella was dancing fast on the table, the dwarf chewing gum, looking very professional.

And around her slender neck hangs a small camera newly developed by the Black Iron Zone, which is an engineering device made using optical principles that can make a complete image into a magical image in a short time.

"Hurry up!"

Zhou Zhuo urged:

"I've heard Brian shouting, hell, they're looking for me!"

"Don't rush, it'll be soon."

Ella was a little impatient as she went about her work, and the dwarf vampire jokingly said to Zhou Zhuo:

"Don't keep a straight face, fat panda, think about the benefits, when this is over, you can be an archaeologist with peace of mind, and you don't need to do these unsightly things anymore, isn't this your ideal?"

"It's not my ideal!"

Zhou Zhuo retorted a little frantically:

"My dream was to be a peaceful traveler and travel the world, but now I'm caught up in the mad war fanatics of the dwarves, who want to activate the ancient war machines to fight the undead... Damn it! The world out there is so crazy that I feel like I should go back to Pandaria and live my little life better. ”

"Haha"

Ella let out a playful screech, she whistled, carefully put the rubbed drawings into her personal pocket, and then threw something to Zhou Zhuo:

"This is the real world, Fat Panda, the peace of Pandaria is just an illusion, in short, welcome to the real Azeroth..."

"This is a little "gift" from the great lord to you, take it well, and throw it on the ground in case of danger... Well, goodbye! My friend... Good luck on your adventure! ”

After speaking, the vampire disappeared into the darkness, and Zhou Zhuo, who was finally relieved, also packed his bags and walked out of the base camp quickly. Brass Whisker was already waiting for him there, and the old dwarf asked suspiciously:

"What's wrong? Zhou Zhuo, why is it so slow? ”

"I forgot something very important."

Zhou Zhuo took out a vivid green jade demon ancient sculpture from his pocket, which looked like a magic item, and he shook it at the old dwarf:

"This little thing, when we are in danger, it can help us buy some time, and I feel that this journey may not be so easy."

"It's good to be more prepared."

Brian also replaced his cowboy hat with a very hardy leather hat, wrapped his head firmly, and the dwarf waved his hand to Zhou Zhuo:

"Let's go, get on the drill, the outpost has found the entrance to the Rock Hall, let's go check out the place first."

Muradin, dressed in heavy armor and wearing a full-covered horned helmet, stood at the entrance of the drill, a bold dwarven warrior assigning tasks to the others:

"After entering that place, I will take Lord Elonnaya directly to the inner sanctum, I will act alone, you don't need to worry, the rest of the people will follow Brian and escort him to the area of the Ancient Court, after doing all this, we will gather in the deepest part of the Rock Hall... Everyone should be safe, and if things don't go well, retreat to the entrance! ”

"We're going to explore a mysterious and dangerous Titan ruins, you all know that this place represents mystery, and you're all the most professional members of the Explorers' Guild, not those second-rate tomb robbers, so remember not to touch anything that seems weird!
