"I...I need some time to think about it."

“Alright! I’m going to explore the Tomb of Sargeras now. You still have time until I return. Remember, don’t let the other bronze dragons know what I just told you, or I can’t guarantee what might happen.”

Sensing that Chromie was still struggling internally, Zhang Cheng didn't rush her and strode towards the entrance of the excavated tomb.

Although he had always been very interested in the bloodline of bronze dragons and wanted to abduct one to do research, and also to see if he could lay some hybrid dragon eggs to further improve the hybrid dragon's genes.

Because many young dragons died on the battlefield during the final battle to conquer Hell, he urgently needed to rebuild a larger, stronger, and faster-growing dragon army.

Of course, Chromie wouldn't know about these plans, at least not a single bit before the abduction was successful.

Poor Chromie was unaware that she was being watched, and was still pondering whether or not to abandon her responsibilities and follow the example of the Black Dragon Princess to enjoy life in another world.

Chapter 0883 Remains

The Tomb of Sargeras was originally a temple used by the night elves in ancient times to worship the moon goddess Elune.

However, due to the explosion of the Well of Eternity, the location of this temple was torn off the continent and became part of the Broken Isles.

Later, Magna Aegwynn, the guardian of the Council of Tirisfal and hailed as the most powerful human mage in history, successfully defeated Sargeras, the Dark Titan who had invaded Azeroth, and sealed his remains deep beneath the temple.

Clearly, she wanted this corpse, radiating astonishing evil energy, to remain forever slumbering within the seal, never to awaken.

Unfortunately, as the saying goes, as long as there is great power, there will always be a continuous stream of people pursuing it.

Over a century later, Gul'dan, a powerful warlock from another world, found this tomb and attempted to obtain the near-limitless power of the Dark Titan, only to be torn to pieces by the demons hidden within.

Not long after, Illidan Stormrage led his men to successfully land on the Broken Isles, retrieved the Eye of Sargeras from the tomb, and incidentally engaged in a love-hate chase with his prison guard, Maiev Shadowsong.

It can be said that the remains of the Dark Titan Sargeras are like a giant magnet, constantly attracting ambitious people and mortals who crave power.

Today, as one of these people, Zhang Cheng has also overcome numerous obstacles and stands beside this enormous body.

Since the fraudsters have not yet broken through the barrier, the remains have not been resurrected; they simply lie quietly on the ground, motionless, just as they were when they were defeated.

Driven by intense curiosity, he bent down to examine the grayish-brown metallic skin closely, as well as the astonishing green fel energy emanating from the cracks in the skin. Finally, he couldn't help but mutter to himself, "Just as the legends say, it's not flesh and blood at all, but rather a mechanical life form formed by the combination of energy and metal. Or should I put it another way, the Titans merely used these bodies as shells, so that even if they were destroyed, the core of their spirit and consciousness could still escape unscathed?"

After all, apart from those unawakened Star Souls, almost no Titan with an awakened independent consciousness has ever been truly killed.

Even Argus, corrupted by fel energy, was ultimately only purified and returned to the Titan pantheon.

Without any hesitation, after confirming that Sargeras' remains were not in immediate danger, Zhang Cheng immediately began the long-awaited research.

First, he needs to reduce the total amount of fel energy within the metal body to prevent a violent explosion during the subsequent dissection.

Secondly, he needed a sharp enough scalpel to cut through the unknown but exceptionally tough metal skin, muscles, and bones.

Finally, and most importantly, we searched within the remains for the most essential traces of Titan life.

Just do it!

With the help of the Supreme Authority, Zhang Cheng almost completely drained the massive amount of evil energy remaining in Sargeras's remains in just over ten hours.

It must be said that, in terms of energy level alone, Titan absolutely crushes all known life forms.

Just as he was excitedly preparing to begin dissecting the inside, he encountered a huge problem: the seemingly inconspicuous metallic skin covering the body was too hard and too tough, and ordinary magical weapons simply could not cut through it.

Let alone cutting it open, there aren't many that can even leave a mark on it.

"Damn it! I knew it wouldn't be that easy..."

Looking at the high-level enchanted dagger broken in two in his hand, Zhang Cheng couldn't help but mutter a complaint under his breath.

However, if we think about it calmly, if the Titans' bodies were so easily damaged, they wouldn't deserve to be called the most powerful species in the universe.

Left with no other choice, he took out the cylinder that the woman who claimed to be the creator had given him, infused it with a large amount of magical energy, and transformed its shape into a sharp longsword.

This time, the sword tip encountered no resistance and pierced straight in, not only cutting through the skin made of an unknown metal but also revealing its complex internal structure.

Runes!

energy!

Metal skeleton!

Exquisitely detailed metallic muscle groups and internal organs!

Even the nerve conduction system consists of light spots that are indistinguishable to the naked eye!

Without a doubt, this is not a body structure that could be produced by normal natural evolution, but a shell created using technology.

Perhaps the so-called Titans are simply like piloting mechs, projecting their consciousness into their bodies and using these bodies to wander through the universe and do whatever they want.

evidence!

Lao Tzu needs evidence of the essence of Titan life!

As Zhang Cheng frantically dismembered the remains of Sargeras' body, he roared inwardly.

Although the value inherent in this body itself is enough to drive many people crazy, for him, only things that elevate the essence of life are the true purpose of his journey.

……

Just as someone was sealed in the deepest part of the underground, his body covered in green blood imbued with fel energy, and he was in a semi-mad state, on Highmountain in the northern part of the Broken Isles, a group of tauren from Thunder Bluff were cultivating a relationship with their cousins, the Highmountain tauren, preparing to recruit them into the Horde's ranks.

However, among these burly minotaurs, there was an anomaly wearing a pink dress and wielding a huge staff that looked like a hammer.

He was none other than Kara Cape, the first Tauren mage in Azeroth's history, who had served the Goblin Consortium in Booty Bay and was later taken away by Zhang Cheng for training.

Although after returning to his people, he was personally received by Cairne Bloodhoof and allowed to recruit apprentices in Thunder Bluff to teach his people arcane and magical arts.

However, for most Tauren, warriors are their first choice, followed by hunters, druids, and shamans.

As for the mage...

Well, just look at Kara Cape's bizarre outfit, and you'll know she's definitely not going to attract the seemingly honest but actually wild minotaurs, not even the little cows.

Of course, every bad thing has a good side.

As the only individual in Thunder Bluff who studies arcane and magical arts, he is the first person the Tauren people think of when faced with similar problems.

Sure enough, Warchief Thrall had just issued the call to arms when Cairne Bloodhoof sent him over to join this exploration team with an uncertain future.

"Why have I ended up like this?" Kara Cape, sitting alone in the corner, picked her nose, sighed, and shook her head.

Compared to his current austere life, he missed the days when he served the richest man in Booty Bay. He would even close his eyes and recall standing at the highest point in Booty Bay, raising his glass and cheering as he drank strong rum.

Chapter 0884 Strange Phenomena

“Hey! Kara! What are you doing here? Why don’t you come over and have a drink with us, and tell us about your legendary adventures?” A Highmountain Tauren warrior raised his thick arm and waved with a smile.

Despite being unprepared for the arrival of these cousins, the simple-minded Minotaur showed his last bit of friendliness.

After all, they are not much different from the minotaurs of Thunder Bluff in terms of bloodline, and there have been no conflicts between them in history. On the contrary, they have fought side by side.

“Legend? I don’t think that’s a legendary experience.” Kara Cape stood up helplessly, took the glass full of homemade wine from the other person, tilted her head back and drank it all in one gulp.

For someone with a pirate background like him, the temptation of alcohol was irresistible. No matter how bad the drink was, as long as it contained a certain amount of alcohol, he would drink it without hesitation and not leave a drop.

"Why? You know, you're the only known Tauren mage. Before you, none of our companions could sense the existence of arcane magic, let alone use it. By the way, I've heard that learning arcane magic requires a very intelligent mind, is that true?" Another young heifer asked curiously.

"Hehe! That's right! You definitely need a smart brain to learn magic. But being smart isn't enough; you also need devilish training. You know what? The human who taught me magic was an absolute demon. He not only forced me to train beyond my limits every day, but also made me do some extremely dangerous things to strengthen my control. If I had made even the slightest mistake, I probably would have been torn to pieces by now."

After saying that, Carla Cape handed over the empty glass, indicating that the other person should fill it up.

In fact, he never quite understood why Zhang Cheng had chosen him in the first place, and he didn't understand why he was later asked to return to his compatriots.

Just as the curious calves were about to ask all sorts of questions, a violent tremor suddenly shook the ground beneath their feet, followed by a deafening roar that echoed across the Broken Isles.

boom!

Accompanied by a blinding, dazzling green light, a terrifying beam of fel energy shot up from the ground and tore the entire sky apart!

"What...what's going on?!" A warrior from Thunder Bluff scrambled to his feet, staring dumbfounded at the horrifying scene in the distance.

"It's fel energy! Are there demons from the Burning Legion here?" Vol'jin, the leader of the Darkspear tribe who was in charge of leading the team, narrowed his eyes and released an astonishing aura.

As Thrall's most trusted right-hand man, he had heard about the Burning Legion's evil and power more than once.

“That should be the Broken Beach! According to legend, a powerful demon is sealed there,” the Highmountain Minotaur quickly stepped forward to explain.

"We have to go check it out! Go immediately and inform the airship captain to prepare for takeoff. Kara Cape, it's your turn this time." Woking issued the sortie order without hesitation.

Others may not understand the true purpose of this trip, but he will not forget that it was to find out who that enormous black dragon was and what it planned to do to the world.

……

On the other side, the Alliance, far away at their camp in Storm Bay, undoubtedly also saw the fel energy beams shooting into the sky.

Archmage Anslem Ruinvivor narrowed his eyes, silently sensing the astonishing energy contained within. Without turning his head, he said to the old captain beside him, "This is fel energy used by the demons of the Burning Legion! We must go and see. Have everyone board the ship immediately and prepare for Level One combat."

"Understood!" The latter nodded immediately, turned around and shouted at the top of his lungs, "Everyone board the ship! Hurry up!"

Watching the soldiers, sailors, mages, and dwarven gunners orderly board the small boats and return to the warship, Ansrem Ruinvivor took a deep breath and muttered to himself in a voice only he could hear, "Could it be that Magna Aegwynn's seal has malfunctioned? That would be the worst-case scenario!"

Outsiders may not know what lies on the Broken Isles, but how could he, as the Archmage of the Kirin Tor Council of Six in Dalaran, not know?

After all, the background to the formation of the Council of Tirisfal was that the Dalaran mages' research into arcane power attracted the attention of the Burning Legion demons. Therefore, the high elves and the human magical kingdoms signed an agreement, ultimately deciding to select the most talented mortals to serve as guardians, responsible for hunting down and killing demons that invaded the world of Azeroth.

However, knowing something is one thing, but being able to come up with a solution is another.

The Grand Master felt that the only thing he could do right now was to first check the situation.

If the seal were torn apart and the remains of the Dark Titan Sargeras were to emerge, he would immediately return to Dalaran to inform the Council of Six, the Alliance, the Horde, and the Dragon Aspects, uniting all forces that could be united to prepare for another demonic invasion.

……

"Ah ...

Currently, the left half of his body is still completely shattered, just like Sargeras's body, which is developing from flesh and blood into a metal body.

The green beam of evil energy was shooting out from the heart.

"Calm down, Master! You must concentrate! Pour all your spirit and will into those mysterious spots of light! Otherwise, in half an hour at most, you will be completely assimilated and become another kind of life form, a monster that is neither a Titan nor a mortal. Without thought, without will, and without self, the only thing it has is a destructive impulse stemming from instinct." The Supreme Authority warned loudly and rapidly.

It goes without saying that during the frenzied dismemberment process, Zhang Cheng finally found a tiny bit of substance that was very similar to the light cluster at the top of the tower, and tried to implant it into his body, intending to see if he could devour it and make it a part of his body.

Interestingly, these light clusters possessed such high energy and life levels that they began to frantically plunder, absorb, and assimilate cells as soon as they entered the body.

In their presence, immune systems and protective magic all become useless.

No matter what kind of energy it is, it will be decomposed, transformed, and absorbed within a few seconds, eventually turning into boiling evil energy.

"Shut up! You make it sound so easy! How am I supposed to concentrate in this state?" Zhang Cheng rolled his eyes in annoyance as he endured the pain radiating from his nerve endings, his entire body practically soaked in sweat.
