You also die? Alexstraszas tone was indescribable as she sighed. Do you know that just a few days ago, I felt the fading of Malygoss flames of life? If nothing unexpected happened, Malygos offered his soul to Osiris. The death of an old friend has already made me sad enough, and now, youre actually saying that you will die in Osiriss hands Pardon my frankness, but I dont see any light in the future youve described! Osiriss existence, like his t.i.tle, makes me feel shrouded in endless despair
Thats because you can only see the darkness in front of you, Alexstrasza But I see more! Nozdormus eyes were s.h.i.+ning, as though he was using his power. In the scenes of the future, I see devastation everywhere and endless enemies. Even without the Burning Legion, theres still Neltharion and the Old G.o.ds. Even without external enemies, the various races of Azeroth will still go to war because of endless conflicts Alexstrasza, its difficult for peace to come to Azeroth in the future. The hatred acc.u.mulated in the wars has always been causing the various races to slide into the abyss. This is what Ive seen in many timelines, all kinds of endings.
Is that so? Its been hard on you, old friend Alexstrasza patted Nozdormus shoulder. Do you feel terrible seeing those scenes all the time?
Nozdormu shook his head. You dont understand what I mean. What Im saying is that in other timelines, Azeroth has always been in a state of disaster, and many of them even welcome the end of time, which is the destruction of the world But whats strange is that because of the existence of Osiris, this current timeline is able to continue for a long time. I dont know why, nor do I know what happens. After all, I cant see the future after my death. But from the perspective of an observer of time, I can confirm that this timeline is the longest Ive seen In other words, the future of Azeroth has been extended further.
Why is that happening? Alexstrasza was puzzled.
Nozdormu said, Ive been thinking about it for a long time. I think Osiris probably does something that has a profound impact on the future. Otherwise, its impossible for this to happen.
He is a demon king. Could he turn around and protect Azeroth? Alexstrasza said. You said that you died in his hands. From the looks of it, even we Aspects wont be able to escape his vicious hands. He will also cause immense damage to Azeroth.
But this damage might not be his ultimate goal! Nozdormu said. Unlike other demons of the Burning Legion, Osiris might not care about Azeroth Alexstrasza, I have a vague premonition that it might be a good thing for us to let Osiris wreak havoc
Alexstrasza looked at Nozdormu speechlessly. If I hadnt been able to confirm that you are indeed Nozdormu, I would have definitely suspected that you had fallen. Is this what an Aspect should say? Let a demon king wreak havoc on Azeroth?
Nozdormu shook his head. Thats all I can say. Alexstrasza, whether you believe me or doubt me, what I want to say is that you dont need to have any psychological burden. Just do whatever you have to do. Its fine to fight against Osiris, and its also fine to preserve your strength. When youre thinking about your course of action, you dont need to consider the content of our conversation today. Just proceed as normal.
d.a.m.n it! Alexstrasza couldnt help cursing after hearing this. Youve already said so much, and now youre telling me not to feel burdened? How is that possible?!
Nozdormu smiled and didnt say anything.
Alexstrasza suddenly thought of something, and her face turned cold. Theres one more thing, Nozdormu. About me being captured by the Dragonmaw clan
Hearing this, Nozdormu immediately knew what she wanted to ask. He sighed and said, Alexstrasza, Im sorry about this. I did see this history, but I couldnt stop it from happening because its a necessary factor in the timeline
Alexstrasza gritted her teeth and looked at Nozdormu, but she didnt say anything.
Im leaving, Alexstrasza! After a moment of silence, Nozdormu said, The reason why I came to see you is that we might never have the chance to meet again in this timeline
Alexstrasza hesitated for a moment before finally nodding. But she stayed silent, and Nozdormu gradually disappeared.
After he left, she sat alone on the top of Wyrmrest Temple for a long time. It wasnt until dawn that she straightened up.Do what I have to do? Okay
Over the next period of time, the red dragonflight of Wyrmrest Temple attacked several times under Alexstraszas lead. Their goal was Roy, who was searching for dragon corpses in the Dragonblight to create an army of dragon liches!
Although Alexstrasza knew that she couldnt kill Roy by doing this or even cause him any harm, as the Dragonqueen and an Aspect, she couldnt tolerate him desecrating the corpses of dragons, so it was inevitable for her to attack him.
While Alexstrasza was entangling Roy, the situation on Azeroth was rapidly changing.
Just as Medivh had expected, the Burning Legion and the Scourge had lost a lot of troops when crossing the Endless Sea. Although most of them were undead creatures without a will, the demons also suffered many casualties.
But no matter what, under Tichondriuss lead, they still set foot on Kalimdor.
What surprised Tichondrius was that Archimonde had clearly set off first, but after the Legion and the Scourge landed, Archimonde had yet to appear. He hadnt even reached Kalimdor.
The reason was naturally that Archimonde was entangled by the nagas in the Maelstrom
Although Archimonde could fly, he was unwilling to fly. This was out of habit. And because of the World Tree Nordra.s.sil on Kalimdor, he couldnt use Teleportation to enter for the time being, so he had no choice but to cross the sea personally. It made him feel angry and impatient. As a result, when he pa.s.sed by the Maelstrom and was attacked by the ugly and slippery nagas, how could he not be furious?
Archimonde tore apart all the nagas who dared to attack him. The fel energy flowing from his body contaminated a vast stretch of the sea. But even so, the nagas still tenaciously hara.s.sed and sneak attacked him, making it difficult for him to move forward.
Even so, he had never thought about what was going on with these creatures that kept appearing to obstruct him. In fact, after ten thousand years, the Burning Legion had long forgotten the group of Highborne that they had bewitched. After using p.a.w.ns, they would discard them. This was the usual tradition of the Burning Legion, so Archimonde never thought that these nagas were the Highborne from before. He only thought that they were some ugly insects and stomped them to death.
But the nagas had already recognized Archimondes ident.i.ty. The reason why they kept attacking him was due to the hatred and anger of the Burning Legion deceiving them. Moreover, under the leaders.h.i.+p of Queen Azshara, the nagas had taken refuge in the Old G.o.d NZoth. Although they were both in the camp of evil, the Old G.o.ds and the Burning Legion were not friends, so they didnt have any reservations at all.
Precisely because Archimonde didnt arrive for a long time, the Burning Legion and the Scourge had to stop their invasion and wait for their commander. This naturally gave the human and orcs who had escaped to Kalimdor time to form an alliance with the night elves.
However, after the Orc Horde landed on Kalimdor, Grom h.e.l.lscream had a conflict with the night elf demiG.o.d Cenarius and killed him with his ax. This matter caused a tremendous conflict between the night elves and the orcs. But under the immense threat of the Burning Legion and Archimonde, no matter how unwilling the night elves were, they could only put aside their hatred for the time being and face the powerful enemy together.
Deeply aware of the strength of the enemy, the worried High Priestess of Elune, Tyrande Whisperwind, released Illidan Stormrage, who had been imprisoned for ten thousand years, hoping that he could contribute in the upcoming war.
And letting Illidan out of his cage was a sign that the Battle of Mount Hyjal was coming
