Chapter 907 26. Earth Spirit --- Adding more for world peace [1820]
Earthlings, this is an ancient race.
They were born in the period when the Titan Guardians reshaped the order disturbed by the ancient gods in Azeroth. They are the life created by the guardians and are a very important part of the guardian system.
The earth spirits are born with the power of the earth, which makes them very talented in construction. According to legend, it is the earth spirits that built the city of Ulduar, which is like a miracle.
But after Loken, the guardian of wisdom, rebelled, the earth spirits were brutally driven out of Ulduar, exiled on the Storm Peak and even the whole world, and Loken was afraid of the abilities of these earth spirits, so he sent his own The cunning and ruthless iron dwarves under his command chased them down. Some of the earth spirits couldn't bear such atrocities. When Tyre, the god of justice, stepped forward, they followed Tyre into exile all the way to the border of the mainland.
After Tire died in battle, they continued to follow Azadas and Elonaya to the Uldaman ruins, and now, in the renovated Uldaman ruins, there are still some ancient earth spirits. exist.
But there are still some earth spirits who did not follow Tyr to leave their hometown. In order to avoid the pursuit of the iron dwarves, they used their own shaper power to create a remote but safe place for them on the edge of the cliff of the storm cliff. The sanctuary... The remaining earth spirits have been living there, carefully maintaining the inheritance of the race, avoiding the pursuit of Loken's henchmen.
Thousands of years after the Guardians of Wisdom fell asleep, the Earthen have somehow recovered and their race has flourished again, but now a group of outsiders have taken over the Halls of Rock, waking up the brutal Rebel once again. Loken, this made the earth spirits living in the earth spirit sanctuary face another cruel choice.
Either completely leave their homeland and leave the Storm Peaks, leave their glorious land, and avoid this terrible disaster.
Or... give up the cowardly thoughts in your heart, and follow these brave outsiders to overthrow Loken's brutal rule in this sacred land...
This is a very difficult choice, but it is also a choice that the current leader of the earth spirits, the Stone Shaper Elder Budkrager who has lived from ancient times to the present, must make.
In fact, the earth spirits have already discovered the traces of this group of copperbeard dwarves who came to the storm cliffs a few years ago. The lives of these short people who resembled them in appearance and habits, which is why for a while, all kinds of food, wine and other items were frequently stolen from the dwarven base.
The earth spirits are born with the ability to shape the earth, so an earth spirit walks under the earth, as long as he doesn't want you to find him, then even the most powerful shaman can't find the traces of the earth spirit so easily.
Some earth spirits also suggested that the Stoneshaper Budcrag contact the copperbeard dwarves, but the old and prudent elder rejected this suggestion. The Stoneshaper could smell the curse of flesh and blood from the copperbeard dwarves. The pure earth spirits created by the guardians of the titans, the stoneshapers instinctively loathe this kind of flesh and blood degeneration caused by the hands of the ancient gods... However, now, when the elders of the stoneshapers are still hesitating, these copper beard dwarves actually He took the initiative to find the door.
This dwarf who claims to be Brian Bronzebeard has the authority of the guardian system, so the Stone Shaper is willing to give him a chance, and Brian invites the Stone Shaper, Elder Budcrag, to come with him to the Snowflow Plain. On the edge of the battlefield, I watched the battle between the coalition army and the steel soldiers of the Thundercast Legion with the elders.
"incredible!"
The stone-shaper elder who has lived for more than 100,000 years is holding his own stone-shaping hammer. This earth spirit wearing ancient armor is surprised to see the steel soldiers of the Thundercast Legion, who are feared by the earth spirits like tigers, defeated by these mortals. , Those terrifying explosive weapons, those war fortresses flying in the sky, and the bravery and madness of those mortal warriors all shocked Elder Budcrag very much.
And most importantly, the earth spirit elder seemed to sense some familiar shadows from these mortals.
Especially the little gnomes who are repairing the steam tank reminded him of the steel gnomes under the mechanical guardian Mimiron, they are also good at engineering...
There are also those humans who carry swords and shields, hold muskets, and bravely set foot on the battlefield on tanks. Their fighting posture and roar reminded the stone shaper of the family of Torim, the guardian of the storm. The brave vrykul.
And the copperbeard dwarf in front of me...
After careful contact, the well-informed Elder Stoneshaper can already confirm that the copperbeard dwarf in front of him is a creature derived from the earth spirits who suffered the curse of flesh and blood, but the curse of flesh and blood has never spread to the storm cliffs. The earth spirits, so these dwarves are probably the descendants of the earth spirits who ran away with the God of Justice Tyr...
Thinking of this, the Elder Stoneshaper stroked his rock-like beard, looked at Brian Bronzebeard, and asked in the ancient Titan language:
"We can talk about the alliance later, but I have a question, Bronzan, and you must answer me honestly...you, dwarves, who are your ancestors?"
This question surprised Brian, he didn't expect these solitary earth spirits to be interested in this question, but for an outstanding archaeologist, this question was completely difficult for him, and Brian didn't use it very much. The proficient Titanian replied:
"In our memory, the first mountain king was named Anweimar, and that was the only mountain king respected by the three clans of Bronzebeard, Wildhammer and Black Iron. It is said that thousands of years ago, Anweimar Mal woke up alone in the Coldridge Mountains, he didn't know where he came from, only a mysterious necklace in his hand, but he could feel a heavy mission on his shoulders."
Brian vividly described the story of his ancestors, and this story also slightly changed the rock-like blue face of Elder Budcragg, the Stone Shaper, but he did not interrupt Brian's story, but listened quietly The history of the dwarves:
"Anvimar was not the king of the mountains from the very beginning. He walked in the mountains of Khaz Modan, trying to find those memories that he had forgotten. Along the way, he saw many dwarves like himself who were at a loss. Cuo De roamed the land. Out of a will to protect his compatriots, he led them to live in Khaz Modan. Anweimar ruled the dwarf kingdom for thousands of years. It was the most peaceful time for the dwarves, but Anvilmar and all the dwarves have never given up on finding the sacred mission in their blood and their past history."
Brian shrugged:
"Anweimar didn't leave too many letters. According to some gossip, the mountain king seemed to remember something when he was dying, but no one knows whether the news is true or not."
"I guess..."
Elder Bouldercrag the Stoneshaper hesitated, and whispered:
"The full name of your mountain king should be Modimus Anvilmar, right?"
"Um!!!"
This question made Brian's eyes widen. He never told the earth spirits the name of the mountain king. Could it be that these earth spirits recognize the mountain king?
And this secret was revealed in the next moment.
"In the language of the Earthlings, the meaning of "Anvimar"...is "heart of stone."
Elder Bouldercrag the Shaper said in a low, rocky voice:
"And the name of the king of the earth spirit is "Urel Stoneheart". Yes, I have seen your mountain king, Modimus Anvilmar, before he was infected with the curse of flesh and blood... Right here! On the Snowflow Plain, I met him. At that time, he was a young and vigorous earth spirit. He was a direct descendant of Urel Stoneheart, the king of earth spirits killed by Loken. To avenge his ancestors, and then wait for the earth spirits who are willing to follow him to leave with Lord Tyr."
"It is not because of his heroism that the dwarves, awakened from the curse of flesh, obey Modimus... Bronzan!"
Elder Stoneshaper said to Brann:
"That's because Modimus himself is their king... But just relying on this legend is not enough for me to trust you!"
Elder Buddkragg's body was shaped by rocks, and his character was as stubborn as a real rock. He looked at Brian:
"I remember that when Modimus left, he took away a fragment of the holy hammer Valanir left by Urel Stoneheart, which is a symbol of the monarchy of the earthen civilization... If you call yourself Modi Descendants of Muss, then take out that piece! Otherwise, we still won’t believe you! Bronzan, you have to understand my difficulty, the earthlings have withered to here, if you want us to suppress all hope , if you fight this battle with you, you must first gain our trust!"
"Shards?"
Brian took off his cowboy hat, ran through his hair, and said to Elder Budcragg:
"There is indeed a piece of debris, but it's not with me. It's with my brother Muradin Bronzebeard. If you don't mind, you need to go to the front with me. He is now the commander of the Snowflow Plains War... Oh, by the way, the Bronzebeard surname is also one of the three purest blood lineages of the Alpine King Anvilmar, the other two being the Wildhammer surname and the Thaurissan surname."
"I don't care about that!"
The Stoneshaper said to Bryan, who was trying to make a relationship, with some inhumanity:
"We are earth spirits, there is no such thing as blood in our bodies... so the glory of your surnames means nothing to us, now, take me to see the fragment, if it is really there... .Then, you are the true brothers of the earth spirits!"
—————————————————————————————————
More than ten minutes later, under the artillery-fired front base, in the constantly shaking stratum, he took off his helmet, revealing his completely diamond face, and Muradin took off the necklace from the necklace he was wearing. The orange shard was handed over to the Stone Shaper Elder Budkragg in front of him.
When the Stone Shaper took over the fragment, he first looked at the diamond-shaped Muradin. The King of the Hill didn't want others to know the changes in his body, so he always wore a full body when fighting. This diamond body doesn't need to breathe anyway, but now, under the gaze of the Stone Shaper, Muradin felt a strange feeling of being connected by blood.
"do you know?"
The elder Stoneshaper put the fragment of the hammer in his palm, and he said slowly:
"The king of earth spirits back then, Urel Stoneheart, was actually very similar to your diamond body, but the birth of your body was an accident, and Urel can completely manipulate the power endowed by this body ...you're not a fighter, brother Bronzan, you're not supposed to be a fighter, do you understand? You have a heavier responsibility on your shoulders..."
"But that's for the future!"
After finishing speaking, in the hands of Elder Budkragg, the orange shards suspended strangely. Under the watchful eyes of Brian and Muradin, the elder smashed the Stone Shaper hammer on the ground fiercely, The solid warhammer immediately fell apart, and among the fragments, a smaller fragment that was exactly the same as the orange fragment was picked up by him and placed next to the large fragment.
The next moment, the two fragments strangely melted slowly under the control of a certain force, and then became a larger fragment.
"Very well, Val'annar, the Hammer of the Legendary Shaper...I thought I would never see it again in my lifetime, but now, you have brought hope to the earthen..."
The Elder Stoneshaper carefully handed the fragment in his hand to Muradin. He looked at the diamond dwarf in front of him, and said in a deep voice:
"Then, the earth spirits are your allies, brothers who have never met before, but we joined the war for a hope, and you must complete it!"
"Muradin! You must collect all the shards of the holy hammer in Ulduar and recast the legendary hammer! Only when the legendary hammer returns to the earth spirit will our civilization recover again. At that time, we will Honor you as king!"
"And at that time, the heavy mission that belongs to the king of the earth spirit that you shoulder will be revealed in front of you, believe me..."
"That's a mission ten thousand times greater than becoming a warrior!"
"You will become, the... spokesperson of this world!"
