Chapter 869 68. Northland Storm. Creator Data Station
Muradin Bronzebeard, this is a dwarf who used to be famous in the Eastern Continent. He is the prince of the Bronzebeard Dwarf Kingdom, the younger brother of King Magni Bronzebeard, and the ambassador of the Bronzebeard Dwarves in the Human Kingdom. He also served as the swordsmanship instructor of Alsace and Varian, and he was a close friend of the two kings.
At the same time, Muradin was also a powerful king of the hill, the most powerful blood warrior among the dwarves. After his brother Magni died in battle, Muradin should have inherited the throne, but in order to save his people, Muradin, The dwarves took the risk of communicating with the earth. This ceremony went wrong, causing some weird "mutations" in Muradin. Therefore, the throne can only be handed over to Magni's daughter, the ambitious queen Moai Pull to inherit.
The problem is that Moira is also the Queen of the Dark Iron Dwarves in addition to her identity as the Bronzebeard Princess. This weird identity caused some people to be loyal to the Black Iron Thaurissan after the Bronzebeard Kingdom moved to Northrend. The black iron dwarves of the royal family also ran over together, and the two feuding dwarf civilizations lived together in such a strange way.
So far, in the Mithril Fort in the Borean Tundra, the Black Iron Dwarves and the Bronzebeard Dwarves still have internal conflicts from time to time, but neither Muradin nor Bryan want to bother with those troublesome things. All to their niece, Queen Moira to take care of,
Muradin and Bryan, the brothers, are currently focusing on investigating the secrets of Ulduar.
A few years ago, in the land communication ceremony in the Coldridge Valley, Muradin saw the picture of the ancient times from the blood, and also got the most original blood of the dwarves, the sacred object left by Urel Stoneheart, the king of the earth spirit Fragments, Muradin guessed that it was the mystery of the origin of the dwarves, and it was also the only way to save the precarious inheritance of the copperbeard dwarves. The Khaz Modan area controlled by the Sub-Federation.
But this road to revival is too difficult...
"whoosh"
Wearing a full-covered horned battle helmet, Muradin Bronzebeard, who was wearing solid armor, carried his own war hammer and battle ax on his back. He stood on the "somersault cloud" brought by Zhou Zhuo. The dwarf was suspended in mid-air at a height of 5 meters from the ground, and moved towards the direction of the Creator's data platform at a fast speed.
Brian and Zhou Zhuo, wrapped in cloaks, followed closely behind.
"This thing is really useful!"
Muradin praised in a loud voice:
"With this thing, we don't have to worry about those hellish traps in the ruins."
"I'm more concerned about what news we can get from the Creator Data Table."
Brian frowned, holding a suitcase tightly in his hand, which contained very valuable things, he said to his brother: "We have found too many useless things in the past few years, we I saw the crazy Titan Guardian at the top of the Temple of Storms, the ancient machine filled with snow in the deepest part of the mountain plain, and the Holy Altar of the Creator in the mountains to the south... Do you remember? Muradin, That polluted altar."
"Of course I do."
Muradin replied with a heavy tone:
"Those black tentacles covering the holy altar have become decayed over time, but the terrible corrosion contained in the tentacles still makes me feel shocking. No one knows what happened in Ulduar, the city of titans, But judging from the information we have collected now, maybe it is not just us mortals who have encountered wars, even those ancient gods... may have..."
Lorewalker Zhou Zhuo beside the two dwarves did not interrupt, he listened carefully to the conversation between Brian and Muradin, from the conversation of these two dwarves, Zhou Zhuo was able to collect a lot of important information, about the ancient Titan Guardian However, from the communication between the two, Zhou Zhuo could hear a hint of ominous smell, and when he thought of the scenes he saw behind Tyrion before, a very bold, very A desperate guess.
"Maybe, those titan guardians may have been tainted and corrupted... like those mad stone guards in the Mogu'shan Vault."
Of course, Zhou Zhuo didn't say this conjecture. Lorewalkers are very rigorous people. They are used to making judgments after collecting enough information.
"It's here!"
After climbing up the mountain road covered with metal fragments for nearly 10 minutes, the three of them came to the edge of a large metal platform that was heavily guarded. Muradin jumped off the flying disk and led Brian and Zhou Zhuo to the edge In front of the complicated golden console covered with mechanical gears and buttons, he said to his younger brother and Zhou Zhuo:
"Before you came, this place was guarded by many mechanical gnomes who lost their minds. I tried to communicate with them, but even with the breath of His Excellency Elonaia, those crazy guards could not communicate with us. In the end, I had to order wiped them out."
"Who is His Excellency Elonaya?"
Zhou Zhuo finally couldn't bear it and asked:
"Is that a wise man? I can sense from your conversation that you seem to respect him?"
"is her!"
Muradin corrected Zhou Zhuo's erroneous statement, and then cautiously took out an hourglass-like glass vessel from the backpack on his back. Inside the glass vessel made of crystal was a perfect diamond. The same thinking core, and on both sides of the hourglass container, a top-level magic power stone is inlaid to charge the thinking core.
"Your Excellency Elonaia is a noble titan guardian, and one of the few guardians who still retains reason in time. It is she who guided us here."
As he spoke, Muradin activated the magic stones at both ends of the vessel. Amidst the blue magic power, a blue magic phantom appeared in front of the three of them. It was a miniature titan guardian giant. The figure of the female guardian that Brian found in the ruins of Uldaman.
"You are finally back, Bronzan, quickly put the Norgannon Disc into the database. If the data in this database has not been erased, then it can give you a complete topographic map of Ulduar, And granting you access to it..."
The female guardian who had lost her body was talking to Brian, but she soon noticed the pandaren standing behind the dwarf. The guardian looked at Zhou Zhuo carefully. After a while, she said:
"A creature I haven't seen before, it's so strange, but I feel something familiar from you... Your creature template should come from the great guardian Rai, who always likes to use rock life templates to create things, so you come from where?"
Ailonaya's inquiry made Zhou Zhuo subconsciously reply:
"Dear Guardian, I am from Pandaria. I am a pandaren lorewalker. My name is Zhou Zhuo. I came here to pursue the secrets of the gods. As for the great guardian Lai, it is indeed rumored among the mogu of Pandaria The legend about the Creator "Rayden"."
"Is the respected Great Guardian still there?"
Elonaya asked anxiously:
"Before that traitor in Loken started the guardian's civil strife, we had already lost news about Lai. We once thought he was in danger. Is he still there? Most importantly, is he still awake?"
"Uh, sorry, ma'am."
Zhou Zhuo replied honestly:
"We don't know if the great Ra is still awake, but from my experience in the Mogu'shan vaults, Ra should be alive, but no one knows his whereabouts."
"is that so?"
Elonaya's magical phantom became depressed. The guardian seemed to recall some bad memories, so she stopped speaking. Behind her, Brian opened the suitcase in his hand and took out a piece of platinum. This is the platinum disc he obtained in the deepest part of Uldaman, and the guardian calls it the "Norgannon Disc". It is said that this disc contains the secrets left by the Titans.
The old dwarf took a deep breath, put the disc into the gap of the ancient database console in front of him, and took a step back.
The next moment, the unique blue halo of Titan energy began to wrap around the instrument, and the disk put into the data table began to rotate rapidly. Amidst the sound of gears colliding, all the buttons on the operating table in front of them clicked. One after another they light up.
"Oh, damn it!"
Brian Bronzebeard looked at the complicated button in front of him, he didn't know which one to press, and then looked at the phantom of Elonaya beside him as if asking for help, but the female guardian was helpless at this moment.
"Sorry, Bronzan (pronounced "Bryan" in Titan), I am a combat guardian who specializes in guarding and supervising."
Ailonaya glanced at the operating console that was running and waiting for orders, and she said helplessly:
"I don't know how to operate these consoles that require specialized knowledge to use, made by the wise and great Mimiron."
"Give it a try."
Muradin encouraged beside him:
"Just press a button and see what happens."
"All right!"
Brian had a very familiar premonition in his heart... He could feel that if he pressed his finger, something bad would definitely happen, but after thinking about it for a while, the old dwarf still stretched out his finger The console was finally stopped by Zhou Zhuo.
"No, no, no! Don't click randomly!"
The pandaren said with some fear:
"Last time in the Mogu'shan Vaults, I pushed a button and had a terrible accident...but this console, well, seems similar to the one I saw last time..."
Zhou Zhuo hesitated, but also eagerly said to Brian:
"Why don't you let me come?"
"Uh, good! You come!"
Bryan hesitated for a moment, then moved away. The chubby Zhou Zhuo stood in front of the console. He looked at the dozen buttons in front of him, and then pointed to the largest and roundest button that emitted red light. dwarf said:
"You can't press this! If you press it, something will happen... And this, it seems, is the confirmation button for "command execution". This, it means search, if I remember correctly."
Zhou Zhuo recalled what he secretly saw at that time, Tyrion was operating in the engine of Nalaksha, and then stretched out his hands, and quickly pressed a few times on these dozen buttons back and forth.
"Ka-Ka-Ka-Ka"
Accompanied by the input of the command, the golden console in front of him began to roar, and in the flash of the blue light of Titan energy, a strange slate was ejected from the console, and then a dozen weak metal detectors The needle began to mark an intricate map on the slate.
Seeing this scene, Elonaya's phantom breathed a sigh of relief:
"Okay, it's starting to work correctly... Now we just need to wait until the map of Ulduar is finished..."
"boom"
As soon as the voice of the guardian phantom fell, two loud bangs sounded on the snow-covered mountain walls on both sides of the console. With the slowly opening of the gate made of stone, the machines hidden in the warehouses on both sides of the Creator data table The dwarf cavalry was activated, and amidst the firing of weird magic guns, these irrational mechanical guardian warriors began to frantically destroy everything around them.
"boom"
Muradin quickly threw Brian and Zhou Zhuo to the ground, the bricks and rocks around them splashed wildly, and on the platform in front of them, those crazy mechanical gnomes screamed and rushed over, these steel life It has 8 points similar to the dwarf, but the whole body is composed of mechanical parts, with various weapons assembled on its body, and it rides behind a more complex and aggressive mechanical bird.
These little guys had astonishing attack power. In just a dozen seconds, they beat back the Bronzebeard Legion guarding the platform.
"How is this going?"
Muradin yelled:
"Didn't it mean that the operation of the Pandaren was correct? How could these machines be activated?"
"Because none of you three are real titan guardians, Bronzan!"
Alonnaya's magical phantom was beaten into a human form by the flying metal bullets. The female guardian who lost her body shouted loudly:
"Although you have activated the console, these Mimiron's Familia still think you are intruders... Keep them away from the data station, they are trying to turn it off! Stop them! Bronzan... Once the console If it is destroyed, the way into Ulduar will be completely blocked!"
"Damn it!"
Muradin, the most powerful among the three, grabbed his hammer and axe, jumped up from the ground like a cannonball, and slammed into the group of mechanical dwarves. The dwarf warrior's fighting posture was extremely crazy, He didn't dodge the bullets that were shot towards him at all, and frantically blocked the attacks of those mechanical gnomes with the war hammer and battle ax in his hand.
And under the command of Muradin, the battle line of the dwarf army scattered by the mechanical gnomes was quickly rebuilt. The mechanical gnomes are the most intelligent guys in the Titan Guardian system, but these guys and their descendants, Nomo Regan's gnomes were also not good at fighting. Under the suppression of the regrouped dwarf army with the help of steam tanks, the mechanical gnomes were quickly confined to the center of the battlefield.
At this moment, the map drawing of the golden console came to an end. The quick-sighted pandaren pulled out the hot slate, and Brian pulled the platinum disk out of the gap. The next moment, the gears of the database console A dazzling flame burst out from above, followed by a violent explosion, and the bodies of Zhou Zhuo and Brian were also thrown far away in the explosion.
"puff"
Brian poked his head out of the snow with difficulty. He sprayed out several mouthfuls of icy icicles, then turned his head and pulled the unconscious Zhou Zhuo out of the snow. I took the activated slate, which was engraved with a complete map of Ulduar and marked the entry route to the city of titans.
"The Hall of Rocks? And the Hall of Lightning...the two sentry posts of the Acropolis of Ulduar, this should represent the first ring of the defense system, judging from their distribution, that is to say..."
The old dwarf looked at the map carefully. On the edge of the messy battlefield, he frowned tightly:
"If you don't open these two levels, you can't enter Ulduar?"
