35. Dark Blade. A body of steel
Storm Crags is a place full of magical prehistoric ruins.
Historical symbols of the birth of the existing civilization can be found everywhere here, from the Veku, Earth Spirits and other Titan creations who lived in the Storm Cliffs, and if the boundaries are divided according to the time of the flow of history, then there is no doubt that the existing civilization is a Tertiary civilization born on the land of Azeroth.
If you count the elemental civilization at the beginning of the chaos at the time of the elemental melee, then the creatures who now ostensibly dominate the world are already the fourth batch of reclaimers in this world.
After the end of the Elemental Melee, the Elder Gods invading the world and building a dark empire of depravity and obscure glory, the Old Gods and their elemental minions divided the world, and at that time, the entire surface of Azeroth stood megacities dotted with black obelisks and evil pyramids, and the Dark Walkers who had risen from the flesh of the Elder Gods were the masters of the earth.
Then, the Titans returned to Azeroth, in order to get rid of the world's **, they sent their own Guardians, and the Guardians built the Titan City of Ulduar in the North Pole of the world, and a steady stream of Titan creations came out of the city, like the autumn wind sweeping away the leaves, sweeping the dark world away, these Titan creations born in order replaced the ancient gods, and created the original prototype of order in Azeroth.
Unfortunately, the passage of time, the resurgence of darkness, the curse of flesh and blood unleashed by the ancient god Yog-Saron, and the infighting of the guardians, caused this glorious civilization to decline, and on the ruins left by the Titans, the Quaternary civilization began to crawl out of the cradle like a newborn baby, exploring the whole grand and strange world, and rightfully regarded this world that had gone through too much time as its home.
But the dangerous secrets hidden under the ruins, hidden in the darkness, are never far away, on the contrary, they simply sink to the bottom, and one day, they will resurface and peek into this young and passionate world... Yes, one day, the remnants of the ancestors will once again try to enter this strange world, and at that time, they will have a fierce confrontation with the existing civilization...
Either be destroyed, or blend in ... There will be no third way for the remnants of civilization to go.
"It's unimaginable."
Tyrion rode behind his own Hellfire Phoenix Ifertar, this Death Demigod who has begun to gradually get out of its infancy has recently become very active, it is like a deliberately naughty little girl, trying to get Tyrion's attention, if you are not careful, this extremely destructive Hellfire Phoenix will make some very embarrassing things...
Early this morning, it almost burned the branches of the Tree of Reincarnation in the Castle of the Dead, at midnight the day before yesterday, it burned Aurelia's favorite dress, the day before yesterday, it pecked the feathers on the wings of the Death Demigod Crack Seat domesticated by Dornan, and fought with Teria's domesticated war bear Bighorn, causing the entire Dark Temple to jump, and under the unbearable scolding of the family, Tyrion had to keep the restless little phoenix by his side.
He gave Ifertar more death power than other death demigods, which caused the little phoenix to launch a surge, and ordinary death knights really couldn't control it.
But when staying with its creator, the little phoenix seemed very docile, it carried the great lord, in the valley in the center of the plain at the bottom of the storm cliff, along the steel tunnel left by the Titan guardians, all the way down, the extremely fast Stygian Fire Phoenix flew rapidly in this low temperature for several minutes, but it had not yet reached the bottom of the tunnel, and this was already nearly 10,000 meters deep underground.
"How did you put such a thing under the earth's crust in the first place? I feel as if it has been connected to the center of the earth. ”
The Great Lord looked at the surrounding area with a scorching aura due to its proximity to the mantle layer, and he looked around the metal passage engraved with runes, the Titan runes that were constantly lit up and extinguished, and the glass-like conduits that were hidden under the metal and occasionally exposed, and the blue liquid energy flowing in the conduits, and the gears that were constantly in motion, this pit was obviously part of a super-large, larger mechanical creation than a city.
Here, it's the Creator Engine... It belongs to the supporting equipment of the Forge of Will, which is placed under the Titan City of Ulduar.
"No, the Creator Engine is not connected to the center of the earth."
The answer to the High Lord's question was followed by Azadas, the Shaper of the Creator's Engine, who rode in a strange, elevator-like device, and followed the High Lord all the way down at great speed along the tracks reserved for the metal tunnel, skilfully maneuvering the elevator and explaining to the High Lord:
"In fact, the main body of this engine is in the mantle layer, and we use the heat of the mantle magma to melt the steel for pre-creation, and at the same time draw some special metal elements from the center of the earth to give the steel structure special abilities."
Hundreds of thousands of years ago, the Shaper Azadas was the guardian in the guardian system who was responsible for managing the Creator Engine, and the guardian who was responsible for the management of the Uldaman Laboratory, so his research and understanding of the Creator Engine was the most among all the Guardians.
"We occasionally capture elemental creatures from the Elemental Realm to give steel constructs the ability to manipulate elemental energy, and I remember when Ironnaya and I had nothing to do, experimenting with various power infusion rituals in the Creator's Engine, where mysterious elemental powers were mixed together to create unique phenomena... Allows me to make some unique construct lives. ”
Azadas' eyes were full of nostalgia, and he held his stone-shaped warhammer in his hand, a one-handed hammer that was more of a tool in the hands of the great sculptor of the Guardian, who was not a combat-savvy Guardian.
And these past memories that Azadas casually said made the Great Lord nod slightly, faintly remembering in his heart.
The Guardian said that he had infused the Iron Soldiers with elemental power and had successfully experimented with them, which meant that when the Darkblade Legion was performing the Mechanical God Descent Ritual, he might be able to use some elemental power to mix it up and make his soldiers more powerful!
Well, it's worth trying!
Thinking of this, the Great Lord couldn't help but recall some rumors he had heard in the past, he sat behind the Hellfire Phoenix Ifertar, he looked at Azadas who was manipulating the elevator beside him, and he asked softly:
"I've heard that the Titans who guarded the dragons back then were given to them by you, and I've also heard that the power of the Earth Guardian Nesario, the now insane Deathwing, came from you?"
"Well, that's true, but it's not true."
At the moment when the scorching aura in front of the two of them condensed into a substantial flame door, Azadas reached out and stopped the descending elevator, and as he opened the door of the elevator, he explained to the High Lord who jumped off his mount:
"The power of the guardian dragons that Gojo fought alongside Tyr back then did come directly from us... Rai bestowed the power of Almansur, the king of the gods, on Nozdorm, the eldest of the dragons, and the Ancestral Dragon was fortunate enough to master the most mysterious of all the powers of the king of the gods, and my sister Freya gave the power of the creator Iona to the most enthusiastic Alexstasa, and the flame-like Ancestral Dragon did not disappoint. ”
The little phoenix tilted its head and looked at the glittering flame door in the passage in front of it, it was very interested in the unusual flames, and the high lord stroked the little one's head, listening to Azadas's mythological tales of the past.
The secrets of the guardian dragons and the Titan guardians.
"Alexstasa has mastered Lady Iona's creative power, the life force, and her sister Ysera, a fellow mother, has mastered another life force, which is a strange dream, fused with Azeroth's unique emerald dream, the turquoise progenitor dragon who was asked to manage and monitor the direction and future of Azeroth's biological evolution in the emerald dream, a pair of lucky sisters."
Azadas stretched out and pushed open the illusory flame door, the originally empty tunnel, after stepping through the door, it was like entering another space, this place is no different from other Titan labs, surrounded by metal and blue Titan energy full of science fiction style, in the large space of the laboratory, there is also a large instrument connected to the entire Creator Engine, which looks very heavy and very exquisite.
"Loken, I deserve to be the one who didn't go crazy back then, my wise brother, who summoned the power of Nogamnon, the keeper of mysteries, and bestowed that mysterious magical power on the blue, the smartest progenitor, and made the young progenitor dragon the king of magic in Azeroth, and Loken happily called Malygos "The Weaver", which also became the title of Malygos, and the proud blue dragon felt very honored by this. ”
Picking up his tools from the test bench that had been sealed for tens of thousands of years, Azadas nostalgically wiped the delicate shaping tools while telling the High Lord the final story of the birth of the guardian dragon.
"And finally me, I call upon the great power of Kazgros, the shaper of all things, in the snowy wasteland, and in front of me is the black Ancestral Dragon with an indomitable spirit, the bravest and most stable of all the Primordial Dragons, and I still remember that the scars on Nesario's body from the fight against the terrible Galakron had not healed at the time of that ceremony..."
"And it just looked at me, as if to tell me that I didn't need to worry about its body, as if urging me to give it a great mission."
"Hehe, Nesario at that time was like a young man who wanted to make a career to prove himself, oh, by the way, it seems to have a special appreciation for Alexstrasa... What an innocent black dragon. ”
Azadas chuckled, he reached out and reactivated the creation terminal of the dusty creator engine, and in the slight roar of the entire creator engine, countless gears began to run again, and above the head of the great lord, the dim seven-ring aura also began to recharge, and one after another lit up.
"But to be honest, in the ritual of giving power to the guardian dragons, my brothers and sisters and I only acted as carriers of power, and in the case of the ritual of Nesario becoming the guardian of the earth, it was Lord Kazgros, the shaper of all things, who had not yet fallen at that time, and through my body, he gave Nesario his supreme power of the earth, so in a sense, the connection between the guardian dragons and the Titans is actually no weaker than us."
"Huh?"
Azadas's words made Tyrion frown, he pondered something, and after a moment, he asked in a low voice:
"In other words, in addition to the guardians, in fact, the guardian dragons also have an extension of the power of the Titans, and they can also sense the source of the power of the Titans, right?"
"Well, I don't know, but I guess it's okay!"
Azadas didn't realize some deep meaning behind the High Lord's question, and the Shaper turned his body sideways at this moment, exposing the Creator Terminal behind him to the High Lord's eyes, and he made a "please" gesture to the High Lord.
"I've heard the Great Guardian talk to you, High Lord, and I know that in your plans, your legion will eventually have a body of steel, and you'll use the Creator Engine... While I don't want the sacred equipment left behind by the Titans to be used in the war, given the current situation, I think you are qualified to use it, and although the Creator Engine can only produce a few "samples" until the Ulduar's Forge of Will is recaptured, you are still a beginner in terms of the work of "creation"..."
"Come then, High Lord, under the orders of the Great Guardian Rai, I will personally guide you to create the first Iron Warrior belonging to the Darkblade... It's going to be a long and obscure learning process, but I'm sure you'll be a good student, and you'll eventually get the Iron Samurai you want to be the one you want to represent death! ”
"Or to use your description... Belonging to the Dark Blade, the Undefeated Heroic Spirit! ”
"Now, let's start our first lesson... Open the rock book in front of you, on page 7, well, today we are talking about the fundamentals of creation. 2k reading network
