Azeroth Shadow Trail

  Chapter 1135 231. The world is a circle, and it comes back after going around in circles, are you right, Ms. Elisande?

On the deck of the    Nagfar, the sea giant demigod Akorok was carefully observing the broken Tide Stone, while Farondis' eyes were full of apprehension and anticipation.

   This is normal. When you have hope for something, it is inevitable to worry about gain and loss, and the magic prince of ten thousand years ago is also unavoidable.

   "We shouldn't trust this giant."

  Beside Farodis, the legendary shaman Magatha who was newly aboard was looking at the sea giant demigod in front of him with a questioning and vigilant gaze.

   Just like evaluating a thief, she wagged her tail and said in a dissatisfied tone:

   "Nor should we present our relic to him like this, this giant has terrifying power and knows so much about the Tidestone.

  If he had bad intentions and used the power of the holy relic to deal with us, it would be a disaster.

   Black Shaw may be a generous and cunning leader, but he's clearly not prudent enough. "

   "You are not allowed to speak ill of my father, you bad cow!"

  Magatha's question soon aroused the dissatisfaction of Miss Shipling, and Nagfar said to the black cow with a beard and staring eyes:

   "My dad is the most cunning person in the world, he must have his plans if he dares to let that big giant touch the Tide Stone.

   An ignorant mortal like you can't understand his terrible thoughts. You can do whatever he asks you to do. Stop talking nonsense. Be careful I send the scary crazy blue dragon thug little star to cut your tongue! "

   "Oh, what a typical child's speech."

  Magatha snorted, but did not refute any more.

   She doesn't want to ruin her relationship with the ship spirit now. After all, she is a new sailor on the ship. Although she has been entrusted with important tasks, she is still on the inspection period.

   Now to be low-key.

But her complaint had obviously been heard by Blake who was standing beside the Tidestone. The stinky pirate was very satisfied with Magatha's "food protection" behavior, especially that "we" represented the black cow's mentality. small changes.

   As for her questioning, the pirates didn't care.

   She has been on the ship for too short a time, and she has no idea what kind of person her new boss is. She is not to blame for such ignorant remarks.

  Blake squeezed the jug, sniffed the strange aroma of the Winter Spring Fire Wine in the jug, glanced at the sea giant demigod who was touching the Tide Stone with his hand, rolled his eyes, and said:

   "You've been doing this for almost five minutes, and my evil crew has begun to suspect that you're using the Tidestone to do something bad, and they're plotting to murder you.

   Of course I'm not urging you, I believe in you very much, but you have to give me a progress report too.

  The war is still going on in the ruins of Azshara, and I don't have time to spend it with you. "

   "My children have already joined the battle, and the fall of the naga is a matter of time. And I just use my own power to perceive the degree of damage to the Tidestone, which is a very delicate job.

   Take your time as it should. "

   The sea giant demigod explained slowly.

   But the stinky pirate believed him to be a ghost.

   This guy's breath was obviously much thicker than before after he touched the Tide Stone. Obviously, he used some methods that Blake was not sure about to draw power from the ancestor's sacred relic.

  Black actually doesn't care that Akorok uses the Tide Stone to strengthen himself. After all, this is the ancestor of the sea giants.

   As a direct descendant of the Pantheon Titan Roarer Gorgonus in this world, even a stingy guy like the stinky pirate has no reason to stop the sea giants from pursuing their power.

   But the premise that he doesn't mind sharing the power is that it must be good for him, otherwise this kind of "stealing" in front of the master will lead to very bad consequences.

   Probably also sensed the malice that Black was accumulating. After a few seconds, Akorok meekly withdrew his thick fingers. The sea giant's demigod glanced at the jug in the pirate's hand and said:

   "I'm a little thirsty and have a lot to talk about. Can you order me some wine? The wine in your hand smells delicious and reminds me of the court wine I got by chance in the Elf Empire many years ago."

   "You'd better give me some good news, your insatiable greed has made me feel dissatisfied."

The smelly pirate sullenly took out a few barrels of winter spring fire wine from his luggage and piled it up by the sea giant demigod. Took a few sips in it.

At the same time as    let out a soothing moan, the peculiar power of Winter Spring Fire Wine exploded in his body, causing the sea giant's body to swell in an instant.

   "Good wine! This tastes really good."

   Akorok applauded.

   He touched the green beard like seaweed, hooked his fingers to Black and Prince Farodis, and when the two stepped forward, they heard the sea giant demigod sitting cross-legged on the sea say:

"The damage of the Tide Stone has exceeded my imagination, and this sacred object is almost irreparable. But fortunately, you have found a way to inject the purest Titan energy into it, which has allowed the sea and sky secret energy contained in the Tide Stone to be obtained. Slightly added.

   After all, this divine power comes directly from the power of Golganes, the roarer. It is invisible and untouchable by mortals, and only the primitive bloodline of sea giants like me can feel it. "

   "For the sake of the wine I gave you, can you say something I don't know?"

  Black moved his fingers and said:

   "Tell me about the curse."

   "Don't worry, irritable little human."

   Yakorok chuckled and drank the wine in his hand in three or two gulps. He threw the wine barrel away, picked up another barrel of wine and put it under his nostrils and sniffed lightly.

   He said in a low tone:

   "I was about to say this, but do you really think Elf Queen Azshara can smash the Shouter's relic with her bare hands?"

   This question made Black and Farodis look at each other, but neither of them answered.

   Obviously, they have their own ideas on this issue.

   Farondis raised his head and said to the sea giant:

   "Although I don't want to believe it, I saw it with my own eyes that night! The Queen appeared from the night rain and shattered the Tide Stone right in front of my eyes. She cast the curse with her own hands."

   "No, dead elf, what your eyes see is not necessarily true."

   Yakorok shook his head, the sea giant said in a solemn tone:

"The Tide Stone is the creation that created the natural environment of Azeroth. It can never be broken by powerful magic or brute force. According to my ancestors, unless a Titan comes in person, the world will not be broken. There is no force on it that can damage it.

   Of course, there are always exceptions.

Just like when two equally strong eggs collide, one will break, so what I want to tell you is that 10,000 years ago, Azshara used the power of another Pillar of Creation to shatter the Tide. stone.

   Combined with the curse of Azsuna you described to me

  The will of those cursed souls has been maintained on the day they die, which is obviously the category of time magic! So, I think Azsuna's curse is composed of two parts, 'Titan's Secret Power' and 'Time'.

   As far as I know, in the elven court 10,000 years ago, there happened to be another holy relic that could manipulate time. "

  “!”

  Blake was stunned for a moment, and said in a surprised tone:

   "You mean, when Azshara came that night, he secretly carried the Eye of Aman'Thul, the pillar of creation that can control time?"

   "I can't be sure, I'm just making a guess."

   The sea giant demigod, who has already shown the temperament of a non-stick pan that doesn't leave his hands, spread his hands and looked at Prince Pharodis, who was in deep thought. He said:

   "The truth of the matter can only be known by those who have experienced it. Ten thousand years ago, I followed my father in seclusion in the Temple of Akoran and repented for our sin of losing the Tide Stone.

   However, the most important thing now is not to understand the past, but to lift the curse.

   I will go to Azsuna to check the situation in person after we part with you.

   Judging from my knowledge of the Tidestone's secret energy, the Titan secret energy lost by this holy artifact should have been infused into the land of Azsuna by Azshara to keep the curse in effect.

  If this is the case, then I can use the broken Tidestone to recover the remaining arcane energy, and this is what I can do for you.

   But to lift the curse is more than just withdrawing the secret power that maintains the curse. "

   Yakorok shook his head and said solemnly:

   "If the malevolent Azshara really used the power of the Eye of Aman'Thul, then the final step in lifting the curse is to bring the time-controlling relic to Azsuna.

  Use it to break the lock of time, so that all the dead elves can wake up and enter the cycle of death.

   I can't help you with this, I don't even know where the Eye of Aman'Thul is. "

   Black and Prince Farodis looked at each other again.

   They knew very well that the time-controlling relic, the Eye of Aman'Thul was in the city of Suramar, to be precise, in the depths of the Nightwell of the Nightborne.

The   Shaldorei elves made the "Night Fountain" by relying on the powerful arcane magic attached to the Eye of Aman'Thul, and continuously provided the night children with magic power that could be sipped for ten thousand years.

  The pirate gave Farodis a wink, and the two walked aside and discussed in a low voice:

"I don't know if what this sea giant said is true or not, but my reason tells me that what he said has some truth. Compared with Azshara being powerful enough to smash Titan artifacts with his bare hands, I believe in Arcorok's inference more. .

What do you think? "

  Prince Farondis also nodded and said:

"I was not in charge of this part back then, so I didn't know much about Titan artifacts, but I also dabbled in time magic. I didn't think about it before, but now I recall carefully, the abnormal mental state of my subjects is indeed very serious. Like being cursed by time.

  Do you remember the 'time-lost lock' that Dean Bluemoon set in her Nar'Thalas Academy when you got the Tidestone Fragment? "

  Farodis looked at his illusory hand and said:

   "The Dean's Time-Lost Lock uses the Tide Stone as its energy source, which also confirms that when you get it, it does have residues of powerful time magic on it.

  Looks like we'll have to go to Suramar later. "

"Not urgent."

  Blake squinted and said:

   "Let's wait until Akorok goes to Azsuna to check the situation. As for Suramar, I just learned a very important news, maybe we don't need to do it ourselves to get the Eye of Aman'Thul.

   It’s just that I promised you that I would solve the problem here, but I didn’t expect you to wait again. "

   "You've done a great job, Blake, you don't have to."

  Farodis, with an effort to smile, said:

   "Without you, I am still living in the hostility of my subjects, lost in self-guilt and unable to extricate myself. You have indeed helped me find a solution to the curse.

   Even one half is enough.

  We Azsuna Elves are never cowards who put everything on our destiny, we go after what we desire with our own hands. "

   "Elysander is not my friend, but you are, so I will continue to help you. A good captain is always trying to accommodate the needs of the crew."

   Black grinned and said:

   "Wait a moment, I'll go to the sea giant and ask a few more questions."

   After finishing speaking, the pirate dodged back to Akorok. The sea giant demigod was also in a good mood. He found the sacred relic that had been lost for ten thousand years, which made him appetite.

   While holding the wine given by Blake, he stirred the sea and grabbed delicious tuna from the sea and threw it into his mouth. He was enjoying himself.

   "Hey, you said just now that you want to teach me the correct way to use the Tide Stone."

  The pirate raised his head and asked:

"Speak now, when I learn it, I will give you a piece of the Tide Stone as agreed, but you also said before that you and your children will be loyal to me, I can't pretend that I didn't hear it. arrive."

   "Order them however you want."

   Akorok grinned, his **** teeth making him look very dangerous.

   This sea giant demigod with the purest bloodline raised his head and poured a barrel of fine wine into his mouth. He burped his wine loudly like thunder, digging his teeth with his fingers and saying:

   "Their hatred of the naga will make them your best warriors, and they will make you their leader as long as you keep fighting the naga.

   Of course, you are also responsible for feeding them.

  My children and I have inherited the big belly of our ancestor Gogonus, hehe, this is the only beautiful tradition we have left that has not been lost.

   As for how to use the Tide Stone, I can teach you now, but you can't use it.

  Because the power of the Tide Stone was based on the integrity of the relic, and it is now broken. "

  The sea giant demigod shook his head, stared at Black, and explained:

   "I'm not playing word games with you, it's just the truth, I ask you, have you seen any other Pillars of Creation?"

   "I have seen the Hammer of Khaz'goroth and the Shield of Aggramar, and I have also touched it myself."

  Blake gave a whistle and said proudly:

   "I don't want to brag about my legend, but everyone with eyes should know that I'm a real big shot."

   "You are really narcissistic and hopeless."

   The sea giant demigod laughed and said:

   "Since you have seen the power of other Pillars of Creation, then you should know that the divine power left by the broken Tide Stone is only enough for you to drive its most basic ability.

   But whether it is tide or lightning, it is less than 1% of the divine power of the howler.

  The Hammer of Khaz'goroth controls the earth, the Eye of Aman'Thul controls time, and the most primitive and powerful power of the Tide Stones of the same level is to shape the ocean!

   No medium, no magic power, as long as you hold the Tide Stone, this endless sea will be under your control!

   Of course, I don't think Azshara, the Queen of the Deep, and the Tidehunters, the water monarchs you are now allegiance to, would allow you to pursue such powers.

  You're going to reshape the Tidestones, which means you're going to fight them. "

   Akorok looked Black up and down, and the old, unruly sea giant demigod said:

   "You are handsome by humanoid standards, and perhaps after making some sacrifices, Queen Azshara, who is always generous with good things, will let you go.

   But Neptulon is not an enemy you can kill with a smile.

   So, do you really want to fight against the titular master of the sea, and its true master? "

   After speaking, before Black could answer, the sea giant stretched out his hand in front of Black.

Say:

   "Whether you dare or not, I dare not, so just give me a tidal shard. I will teach you the knowledge of reshaping the holy relic right away.

   Ancestors may be disappointed in us because of this.

   But there is no way, we have to survive before we can think about the future.

  So, the legendary pirate whose name is famous all over the world, shall we make a deal? "
