Light's Dawn of Azeroth

Chapter 174: 71. Such an exciting tune right after arriving? The local villains in Azeroth are so rude!
Stonewall Fortress, a military fortress built in the eastern part of Redridge Mountains, was the front line of Stormwind Kingdom against the gnoll army during the reign of King Baratheon. It was also a stronghold for the human kingdom to monitor the situation in the Burning Plains.

The kingdom's elite troops are stationed here all year round, commanded by a general appointed by the king himself.

Today, Stonewall Fortress welcomed a mysterious guest. It is said that General Gavinrad has invited Lord Solomon, the lord of Lakeside Town and Redridge Mountains, to meet him in person.

In the reception room of this stone fortress, Diakum sat on a chair in a military-like manner. To avoid attracting attention, the Sentinel put on a hood to hide his inhuman face, but to be honest, it was useless. After all, anyone with eyes could see his large tail with a golden tail cover.

What's more, what can you, a 4.5-meter giant, hide in front of humans who are generally 1.9-2.2 meters tall?

It's like a thunder elephant in the room, even a blind person can see it clearly.

But Diakum didn't have time to care about the strange looks and whispers from the soldiers around him who were supposedly "protecting" him but were actually "monitoring" him. He was considering a very serious issue.

Where did his holy sword Ashbringer go?

Although he did not put his holy sword back into the Augre treasure chest at the critical moment when he was teleported through the Black Gate, theoretically speaking, it is impossible for him to lose his grip on the weapon even when falling.

The garrison officer's manual clearly stipulates that a qualified garrison officer must hold his weapon tightly at all times.

And even if the Ashbringer slipped out of his hand when it fell, considering the distance the orc fortress fell into the Black Swamp and he was thrown to the Redridge Mountains, the sword would at most fall in Elwynn Forest or Sunny Forest.

The holy sword was forged with his own holy flame and had a spiritual connection with him. This distance was not enough to prevent him from sensing its location.

But the problem is that even if he spread his mental power completely, he could not detect any trace of the Ashbringer.

Or, the holy sword was left in Draenor.

Or, the point where it lands is very, very far away from you.

"Or perhaps some force interfered with the holy sword when I fell, causing it to slip out of my control in a supernatural way. But why did it have to be Ashbringer?"

Diakum was puzzled.

If we really want to talk about preciousness, isn't the Heart of Argus on my finger more precious than the Ashbringer?

It's really strange that one of the swords disappeared.

In addition to the unknown whereabouts of the Ashbringer, Diak'um is also trying to capture the traces of Maraad and Yrel in this world through his spiritual connection with the two Chosen Ones.

I don't know if I don't see it, I'm startled when I see it.

He could vaguely feel that Yrel had landed in the center of the vast Endless Sea in the world of Azeroth, and Maraad was even more incredible. For some unknown reason, his great uncle had run to the other side of the world, most likely somewhere in the continent of Kalimdor.

This kind of landing point
Doesn't this exceed the scope of the Black Gate's transmission interference space?

Something must have happened!

He took out the Arkinite crystal communicator he carried with him. This thing was completely unusable in the other world for various reasons. The Sentinel could not contact the Lightforged veterans under his command, nor could he communicate with other commanders of the Alliance of K'ure. He was full of worries.

So he decided to talk to the two local human leaders in Redridge Mountains and hope to get help from them.

While he was thinking, Diakum's ears suddenly moved. He heard footsteps and the sound of armor clashing, and he stood up. A few seconds later, the door of the reception room was pushed open, and a fully armed human general and a middle-aged man in aristocratic hunting clothes walked in, accompanied by a spellcaster.

"Hello, foreigner who can use the Holy Light. I am the commander of this fortress. My name is Gavinrad, general of the Stormwind Kingdom."

The general of Stonewall Fortress looked at the burly half-giant in front of him with surprise, while Mayor Solomon, a civil servant, was a little frightened.

There is no way, the oppressive force of the sentinels is a bit too heavy for ordinary people.

"Greetings, General Gavinrad, my name is Diakum Zastins, I come from a distant world and have fallen into your territory because of a war."

Diakum replied in standard human language:

"I want to warn you that a city filled with half-demon creatures has crashed on the edge of the Black Swamp southeast of the Red Ridge Mountains. Those highly aggressive creatures may attack your kingdom. I...
Um? "

Before the sentinel could finish his words, he keenly sensed that the castle was shrouded by a special force.

When he looked back, he could clearly see the ochre-colored quicksand light invading the inside of the fortress from the outside, like some kind of "freeze", dragging the human generals, lords, and soldiers who were listening attentively into the freeze without their knowledge.

In the blink of an eye, everyone in the fortress except Diakum was transformed into a strange filter like a "faded photo".

Time is frozen.

"Time. Malice is coming, prepare to fight!"

Argus Star Soul's reminder allowed Diakum to draw out the Flame Blade and Kazak's Soul Rod.

He realized that the malicious visitors had intended to freeze him as well, but they ignored the star soul power in their bodies. For the supreme power of this sea of stars, the lower-level time manipulation bestowed upon them would be difficult to take effect.

"Bronze dragon?"

Diakum quickly rushed out of the fortress's main hall and looked up from the fortress wall, gazing at the source of the time freeze. However, what he saw was not the bronze-glowing "Time Police" guardian dragon, but a giant dragon falling from the sky, its entire body covered in an ominous pitch-black sheen, with pale white markings on its wings, body, and claws.

"So it's that little scoundrel, the Eternal Dragon! No wonder they stopped time so brazenly, not caring about the casualties of innocent people. It really fits their villain status."

The Vigilant curled his lips.

He was not in a hurry. The visitor was just a legendary dragon. Even with the template of a mythical creature, it was no match for the Sentinel. What he cared about was that the Eternal Dragon came to visit him as soon as he arrived here. It seemed that because of his influence in Draenor, the greenskins entered Azeroth early.

It is only natural that this behavior of destroying the timeline would attract the attention of these time destroyers.

Otherwise, why do people call Azeroth a "big city"? The time flow in this world has special managers and guardians, as well as professional time flow destruction gangs. The rural areas of Draenor do not have such "high-end configurations".

It is very difficult to be a "prophet" in Azeroth. If you dare to change the course of history even a little, a bronze dragon will immediately come to invite you to "have tea and talk".

If the bronze dragon doesn't come, the Eternal Dragon Gang, which specifically opposes the Guardians of Time and is dedicated to disrupting the timeline, will also find you. They won't bother you for disrupting the timeline process, and they will probably think that you have the talent to be a villain, so they will recruit you to join the "promising" Eternal Dragon Legion.

If you agree to join, you can live a fulfilling life where you destroy the time flow every Monday, Wednesday and Friday, get chased all over the place by a bronze dragon on Tuesday, Thursday and Saturday, and attend a big cult gathering on weekends.

If you decline the invitation.
Well, the Eternal Dragons will not allow a "competitor" to seize the ecological niche of the villain in the time field with themselves. Most importantly, following the principle that "the villain must be more powerful than the righteous partner", the Eternal Dragons are generally more capable in fighting.

Their relationship with the bronze dragons is very delicate. Although they are mortal enemies, these ferocious and brutal guys also have complete mythical creatures and guardian dragon biological templates. Coupled with the talent of manipulating time, they are enough to make most of the fledgling "prophets" die on the spot.

"You can manipulate time, but it's not easy to beat you."

Diakham pondered:
"We should be able to kill them instantly with a burst of fire, but the problem is that there are innocent people here, and these Eternal Dragons' ability to manipulate time is too tricky. If we start a fight, it will definitely drag on for a long time."

"Hehe, it's just time."

A gentle voice echoed in Diak'um's ears. The whispers from the shadows seemed to come alive in Azeroth. It whispered softly:
"Your Holy Light clearly lacks experience in dealing with these scabby creatures, so why not try the Way of the Void? We can corrupt everything, and even penetrate time.

Look upon these innocents, powerless against the ravages of the evil dragon. You must end this battle quickly. Azeroth is filled with malice towards you, Diak'um. Show it your might."

The Vigilant hesitated.

He looked at the entire fortress that was frozen in time. There were at least more than 1,500 human soldiers here. If this eternal dragon wreaked havoc here, these people would most likely be in trouble.

He prayed to the Holy Light, then put the Flaming Blade back into his bag and held only Kazzak's Soul Staff.

With a wave of his hand, the Archon's seal on his forehead transformed, and a thick shadow covered his body. Under the darkness, only the seal of the Eredar leader was still emitting light, like a star in the dark.

"You! Foreigner! Take off your hood and show it to the mighty Aeonus!"

A giant black dragon descended from the sky and hovered in front of the castle. It was quite polite and shouted in human language to the sentinel staring at it:
"The time stream has been disrupted, a truly remarkable disruption!

There was no sign of this beforehand. The accumulation was completed outside the domain and then the timeline was exploded. It was so fast that the bronze dragons could not react at all. They must be huddled in the Caverns of Time in a mess, and they are already discussing whether to give up this severely disturbed time flow.

Hehe, you look like a guy who is good at twisting fate, and looking at the thick darkness surrounding you, you look like a villain who has done all kinds of evil things.

This is exactly the talent that the Eternal Dragon Legion needs most!

The Time Lords have sensed your presence and have sent the powerful Aeonus to invite you to join us. We will continue to push the accumulation of destiny's potential until this timeline is completely incorporated into our chaotic territory."

"I see."

Diakum nodded, and while maintaining the shadow priest skill "Mind Control" to make the arrogant dragon tell him more about things that interested him, he took off his hood.

"Draenei! You're here twenty-six years earlier than normal!"

The Eternal Dragon shouted:
"The flow of time has indeed become disrupted. This is a very auspicious sign! A very auspicious sign."

"So, it's about two years before the Dark Portal opens?"

Diakum accurately deduced his current timeline. He looked up at the Eternal Dragon and continued, "What's the timeline?"
"Can you do me a favor, mighty dragon? Could you use your power to go back in time and show me where my companions went after the fortress fell into the Black Swamp?"

"Bold! How dare you make demands of mighty Aeonus?"

The arrogant dragon shook his head and tried to refuse the request, but as Diakum intensified his "mind control", the legendary dragon hesitated for a moment, then changed the subject and said:
"But considering your contribution to the Eternal Dragon Legion, it's not a bad idea to give you some convenience. Your companion, right? Watch out!"

It manipulated the flow of time to create a "magic mirror" in front of Diakum's eyes, and as time went back, it showed the Sentinel what happened in the fortress.

Dick saw the warriors of the Alliance of K'ure escaping from the Orc City under the "cover" of the Black Wolf God, which made him look strange.

He saw Lantresor smash the elemental beads and send himself and a group of Mag'har orcs to the desolate land of Kalimdor, where he ran into the Tauren Chieftain who was suspected to be "Cairne Bloodhoof". This made the Sentinel sigh helplessly.

Then, he saw Lelan, in a frenzy, use mass teleportation to send Lightforged veterans across the world.

Lelan and Yrel landed outside the city of Suramar in the Broken Isles, Maraad and Nobundo were thrown into the Silithus Desert, Eredars and two Chosen of the Light landed alone on the Whispering Shore in Tirisfal Glades, and Restalaan the Hunter and most of the Lightforged veterans appeared on the snowy plains of Zul'Drak with confused looks on their faces.

The positions of other people vary greatly, but it is certain that they are basically "evenly distributed" throughout the world, just like flowers scattered by fairies.

Are you sprinkling sesame seeds on the pancakes?

You’re afraid that it’s not spread evenly, right?

"Snapped"

Diakum covered his eyes in despair.

But he couldn't scold his adopted daughter for acting recklessly. After all, in the previous situation, he would probably adopt this tactic if he went there. Just send her away. It would be safer than staying in the greenskin city and fighting PK with hundreds of thousands of demon-blooded orcs.

"Have you seen enough? My Eternal Dragon Legion has expressed its sincerity! Foreign Draenei, now tell the powerful Aeonus your answer!"

The Eternal Dragon stared at Diakum with its black eyes and threatened:
"You've done something so awful, the bronze dragons won't let you go! This world is full of cowards, and only we, the Eternal Dragons, dare to stand against the bronze dragons. If you don't want to be captured and thrown into a time cage, join us!
You have great talent in becoming a time destroyer, and the great Eternal Lord will surely favor you."

"Your Majesty, your invitation makes my heart tremble. I need some time to think about it. Also, I have one last request."

Diakum intensified the intensity of his mental control and said:
"I lost my weapon when I fell into this world. Please understand, but my weapon carries some power that may affect ordinary people. I hope you can do me a small favor and let me see where my weapon fell so that I can recover it in time."

"How can you, a mortal, ask for so many things!"

The powerful Aeonus grew impatient.

But it felt that its temper seemed unusually good today, and the anger in its heart could not be vented.

Looking at Diakum, the shadow-ridden villain in reserve, he felt that it would be a real loss for the Time Destroyer camp if such a talented bastard didn't join the Eternal Dragon Legion.

So it snorted patiently and said:

"Hmph, this is the last time! My time power is so precious, how can I use it to be your retriever? This is because of your dark power."

The kind-hearted Eternal Dragon flapped its wings covered with thick black smoke and went back in time again.

This time, Diakum clearly saw the falling scene that was almost completely replicated when he and "Qin Duanyu fell into the human world". In order to let Diakum see it more clearly, the Eternal Dragon also deliberately "slowed down" it.

Dick saw a distinct ochre light flash across his body as he fell, and then his sword disappeared beside him.

The scene changed, and the Ashbringer wrapped in holy flames appeared above Tirisfal Monastery in the northern border of the eastern continent, and plunged into the back garden of Grand Duke Mograine amid the wide-mouthed exclamations of two half-grown children.

"It's really the bronze dragon's doing!"

The Vigilant frowned and said:

"Is this some kind of stubborn correction of fate? Returning the Ashbringer to its rightful 'master'? But this is nothing more than trying to cover up one's mistake and trying to find a sword by carving a mark on the boat."

"Look! The Bronze Dragon Legion has set its sights on you!"

The powerful Eternal Dragon Aeonus was overjoyed and roared:
"Their unreasonable taking of your sword and giving it away to others is just the beginning! Draenei, you must join us immediately, otherwise you will surely fall into the hands of the bronze dragon. Now only the Eternal Dragon Legion can protect you."

"Yeah, I think so too, but I have one small request, and this is definitely the last one!"

"You! Rude mortal, again and again... Wait! My spirit... You are manipulating my spirit? How dare you! So reckless, so arrogant and frivolous!
You must be punished.

Die! "

"Alas, don't you offer any benefits when you recruit? This local villain is so rude! In that case, I'll just ask you to appreciate this Twilight Hammer. Hey! Don't run away! It's just a knock, it won't hurt much."
