My name is Sasuke, from being the richest man in Naruto to dominating the world

Chapter 561: Awakening Nozdormu: Khadgar's Battle

The surrounding space began to distort as golden light emerged from Nozdormu's hands, and Aegwynn's body also distorted.

It can be seen that this Aegwynn is the Aegwynn of this world, not the Aegwynn of the normal timeline.

Time in Azeroth is like a river. The river will have forks and different flows. The same handful of water will naturally exist in different locations on this long river at different points in time.

So if we go back to the past, we will indeed be able to see another person who is exactly the same as us. Even if we only go back to the world one second ago, as long as we move in the long river of time, similar situations will occur.

Sasuke thought about it and thought that perhaps Aegwynn was the first to discover the presence of him and the others, and then she contacted Nozdormu, and the two sides came together.

Never doubt Aegwynn's ability. As the previous guardian, she has such ability and power.

However, just as the space was about to be completely distorted and everyone was sent to the normal timeline by Nozdormu, a large amount of arcane light suddenly emerged from Khadgar, whose time was stopped.

"Please...wait a moment...I...have something to say..."

Sasuke turned his head and looked at Khadgar in surprise.

He really didn't expect that Khadgar could break through Nozdormu's time blockade.

The future Khadgar might be able to do it, but at this moment, Khadgar has not yet obtained the Chicken Leg Staff, and his own strength has not reached the peak. How did he break through Nozdormu's power? Could it be that... he also gained some unexpected gains from an unexpected trip to the Saint Seiya world?

Not only Sasuke was surprised, but Nozdormu was as well.

In his eyes, Sasuke, as well as Loki, Ares, Artemis and others, are all on the same level as himself, especially Sasuke. He can't see through Sasuke at all, so if these people can be unaffected by him, then he can fully understand and accept it.

But Khadgar... in the human evaluation system, he is at most at the level of a great wizard. Of course, this is already very strong and is already the pinnacle of humanity.

But he is not a guardian after all, nor the strongest among mortals, so there is no reason for him to be able to break through his own power.

Nozdormu paused slightly. He looked at Khadgar, thought for a moment, and suddenly snapped his fingers. While maintaining the time distortion around him, he unlocked the time lock on Khadgar.

Khadgar was suddenly unsealed and subconsciously took a half step back, then immediately stepped forward again, looking directly at Nozdormu.

"Are you the bronze dragon king? Why are you trying to stop me? If I defeat Medivh here, the future of this world can still be saved..."

"No, it's no use."

However, before Khadgar could finish his words, Nozdormu shook his head.

"History cannot be changed. No matter how much you do, it will be useless. My mission is to protect the history of Azeroth and prevent it from going astray. Therefore, any behavior that will affect the long river of time must be stopped."

In fact, what he said was not thorough enough.

The timeline of Azeroth, to put it more accurately, is more like a criss-crossing web.

Each time stream converges at a time node like a long river, and then disperses. The heroes of Azeroth on countless timelines have different destinies.

Therefore, this timeline can be seen as a divergent network diagram. There is and will always be only one correct timeline that can allow history to continue, and the final result of any other timeline is the destruction of Azeroth and the death of all living things.

Therefore, the purpose of the bronze dragon is to ensure that we proceed along the correct timeline.

Nozdormu has guided mortals through time and space many times to ensure that certain events in the past occurred, thereby ensuring that the present timeline is correct.

But the complexity of the time flow makes it easy for people to get lost in it, unable to distinguish what is reality and what is illusion, even including Nozdormu himself.

That's why he tried his best to stop Khadgar from changing the current timeline.

"So are we going to watch this timeline suffer the same experience as mine? Watch countless people die under the orcs' axes?"

Khadgar questioned Nozdormu.

"The correct history is more important! I must ensure it is not destroyed!"

The man and the dragon froze there, neither of them willing to take a step back.

"Then I will have to defeat you. I must change this timeline and save the people here!"

Khadgar held up a purple magic circle with his hands.

"Mortal, you are on the wrong path and you are still so stubborn. It seems I need to make you face the reality."

However, Nozdormu was not a man of good temper. Khadgar had already stated that he wanted to challenge him, so he naturally responded with powerful strength.

As the golden light on his hand grew stronger, golden rivers began to emerge around him. This was the long river of history of Azeroth.

Golden grains of sand flew out of the river and surrounded Nozdormu. Each grain of sand looked very small, but in fact it contained powerful time power and could easily change a person's time.

Sasuke looked at the two men at loggerheads and couldn't help but sigh.

In fact, in his opinion, there are problems with both this man and this dragon.

Khadgar was too reckless. Time is indeed a magical thing. Any action to go back to the past and change history requires careful consideration.

Not to mention that the river of time in Azeroth is so special, with countless tributaries, each of which may represent a future of world destruction. The goal of Nozdormu and the bronze dragon is to ensure that Azeroth can embark on a timeline that will continue to exist. Their mission is very important and is by no means a joke.

But now, Khadgar, because of a momentary impulse, wants to change the course of history and time at all costs. This behavior itself is wrong.

As for Nozdormu, his problem is that he is too willful.

He said that history cannot be changed, but in fact, how much history has he changed?

There were quite a few that Sasuke could easily name.

For example, when Rhonin, Krasus, and Broxigar Saurfang went back to the eve of the War of the Ancients to help the night elves resist the invasion of the Burning Legion.

This time travel originated from Nozdormu being trapped in the time stream by the Old Gods.

At that time, the Old Gods wanted to use the power of the Burning Legion to break the shackles on themselves, trapped Nozdormu and wanted to interfere with the outcome of the War of the Ancients. Nozdormu sent a distress signal to Krasus and sent him and Rhonin back to the past, but an orc veteran, Brox Xiga Saurfang, was also sent back ten thousand years ago.

This unplanned crossing changed history forever. The powerful demon dog king Hakkar was killed early, and some dragon eggs of the blue dragon family were protected by Krasus and saved from the destruction of Deathwing. As a result, the blue dragon no longer faced the crisis of extinction.

This crossing successfully saved Azeroth, but Broxigar sacrificed his life to prevent Sargeras from passing through the portal. It is worth mentioning here that this Saurfang is the older brother of the future King Saurfang of the Horde.

Another example is the incident at Dragon King’s Twilight.

At that time, Thrall had resigned from his position as Warchief of the Horde and focused on the shaman work of the Earthen Ring. He was entrusted by Ysera to visit Nozdormu in the Caverns of Time.

In the Caverns of Time, the bronze dragon Kronaris arranged for Thrall to enter the time stream to find Nozdormu. Thrall witnessed the death of his parents and several important moments in his life, and entered a wrong timeline.

There, Blackmoore himself carried out his evil plan that was supposed to be accomplished by Thrall, and he successfully ruled Lordaeron. Blackmoore of this timeline became a servant of the Eternal Dragon and traveled through timelines to hunt down Thrall.

In the end, Thrall found Nozdormu and gained inspiration from his words. He defeated Blackmoore in the wrong timeline and also defeated the shadow of his own slavery.

There are many similar things, so it can be seen that Nozdormu is not as respectful of time and history as he says. In fact, as long as he thinks it is possible, he can do it. On the contrary, as long as he thinks it is not possible, he cannot do it.

To be honest, it's a bit too stubborn.

After all, even if he is a guardian dragon, even if he is commissioned by the Titans to protect the history of Azeroth, it does not mean that he can represent absolute right.

In fact, how time will flow and how history will develop, even the Titans dare not say that they are absolutely correct, let alone Nozdormu, who is far less powerful than the Titans? It is precisely because of his own limitations that the Eternal Dragon Clan - the blackened version of the Bronze Dragon Clan - appears in this infinite time network.

Therefore, for Azeroth, the most important thing is never the past or the future, but...

"Now."

Sasuke said softly.

"what?"

As soon as he said this, Khadgar and Nozdormu looked at him at the same time, and even the other three looked at him curiously.

Sasuke is the strongest one here, having surpassed Nozdormu, so when he speaks, Nozdormu cannot ignore him no matter what.

“Time is fluid and impermanent, and the past and the future cannot be determined by humans. Therefore, the most important thing is now, at this moment.”

This sentence is also the conclusion of Nozdormu himself after he got rid of his confusion and picked up his duty of guarding the dragon again. It reflects his deeper understanding of the mission of guarding time.

Now Sasuke brought out this sentence in advance.

Khadgar didn't feel anything yet, but Nozdormu was frozen in place as if he had been struck by lightning.

"Now, now..."

He murmured.

"That's right, Nozdormu. The present is the most important. The present inherits the past and will open up the future. You are too immersed in the flow of time and ignore the essence of things. There is nothing wrong with protecting the most correct timeline, but how can you guarantee that the future you see is correct?

You can change the past and thus affect the future, but how do you know that there won't be some force more powerful than you that can change the present from the future?

The present of you and me is the past to people in the future.

So now is what you should really protect, to ensure that the present will not be changed by some force, and then everyone works together to create the future that this world deserves, isn't that your responsibility?"

Sasuke said with a smile.

Actually, what he said was a bit confusing. Honestly speaking, time is really too complicated. It involves both physical concepts and philosophical concepts. If we dig deeper, there will be no end to it.

So he stopped there, after all, he couldn't make up anything more.

However, Nozdormu was a smart man. After hearing these words, he immediately fell into deep thought.

Khadgar looked at Sasuke, then at Nozdormu, and suddenly he dared not move, for fear that one of his actions would cause Nozdormu to go berserk.

He knew of course that the Guardian Dragon King was extremely powerful, and he also understood that these creatures were extremely powerful, and only the most powerful magicians and warriors were worthy enough to compete with them.

So if he can avoid fighting, he really doesn't want to go to war with the other party.

Fortunately, Nozdormu didn't plan to fight anymore.

"I understand what you mean."

He nodded to Sasuke, then looked at Khadgar, "Maintaining the river of time is my most important mission. History cannot be rewritten at will, but history is only history. Now is the most important thing. If you want to do something, do it. Regardless of success or failure, I can give you a chance."

As he spoke, he untangled the time warp around them, and everyone returned to Deadwind Pass.

Aegwynn, who had already left, teleported back and looked at Nozdormu in confusion.

"Let him try to stop Medivh... I know what you want to say, but I know you can't stop Medivh. This person... You should be able to recognize him, right?"

"Yes, Medivh's apprentice."

"He comes from another timeline. I have seen countless timelines. Opening the Dark Portal is inevitable. Even if Medivh is not there, there will be others... However, if he can really stop Medivh from doing this, or even restore Medivh's will to normal, history may really change differently."

"So what do I do?"

"Don't do anything, just watch quietly."

Nozdormu shook his head and glanced at Sasuke after he finished speaking.

Sasuke nodded and looked at Khadgar.

"This is your request, so you have to fight on your own. We will not help you. Khadgar, if you want to change history, then let us see your sincerity."

Khadgar looked at Sasuke, then at Nozdormu and Aegwynn, and nodded vigorously.

"I understand. Wait for my good news!"

Arcane light appeared on his hands, and the next second, he disappeared from where he was. Almost at the same time, the magic barrier of Karazhan Tower suddenly became active, and terrifying arcane fluctuations poured out from the tower, radiating to the entire Deadwind Trail.
