Chapter 770 Pre-War Meeting
In fact, Levin knew more secrets about this world, but he couldn't reveal too much to Maiev. Because the source of some intelligence is really hard to explain. These secrets can only be revealed by real time travelers like Krasus. "So, what is the name of this so-called evil power hidden underground?" Maiev continued to ask. "It is called the Old God!" When mentioning this name, Krasus's tone was full of awe and heaviness. God? Maiev couldn't help but snorted from her nose when she heard this name, as if expressing dissatisfaction. As a devout priest of the moon god, she firmly believed that there was only one god in the world, and that was the moon god Elune she served. In her opinion, other so-called gods were false gods and were not worthy of the same level as Elune. "Although they are not as great as Elune, their power is indeed extraordinary," Krasus explained, "and they always lure a lot of cultists to believe in them, so we call them the Old Gods." Levin could hear that when he heard Krasus's evaluation, the Xalatath on his waist snorted coldly. "I seem to have heard this name somewhere before." Levin pretended to be in deep thought, "You mean, the mastermind behind all this is actually the Old Gods?"
"In fact, Rhonin and I went back ten thousand years ago to investigate the matter of Nozdormu, the Lord of Time. I received its message for help, which made us begin to suspect that there was a bigger conspiracy behind all this." Krasus continued to reveal, "I strongly suspect that it was the Old Gods who secretly manipulated Neltharion's fall, and it was their existence that forced Nozdormu to send us back to this era. 11
"Before I came, Lord Cenarius told me that if I wanted to destroy the portal built by Azshara, I had to use a powerful treasure, and the Dragon Soul obviously met this condition. "Maiev crossed her arms in dissatisfaction and looked at Krasus. She still couldn't understand why the Old Gods couldn't take away the Dragon Soul. "Since you are so concerned about the Lord of Time, why do you interfere in our war with the Burning Legion?"
Red Dragon Mage Krasus frowned and asked: "Do you think the Red Dragon Clan will sit idly by and watch this war?"
"Isn't that the case?" Maiev's voice rose a few degrees, and she seemed a little excited. "We have fought against the Burning Legion many times. You Red Dragons have only appeared briefly in the second defense of Black Rook Fortress. "When have you ever fought side by side with us?" The priestess' words revealed a bit of disdain and disappointment. She wanted to save some face for Krasus, but when she thought of the night elves who died because of the rash behavior of the red dragon clan, she could not hide her inner dissatisfaction. In fact, her accusations were considered light. She did not directly point out that the so-called "support" actually only had one red dragon, and the other dragons just made a big fuss on the battlefield and then left. The internal fighting of the dragon clan even affected the rebels, leaving behind countless corpses of night elves. Seeing the conversation between Maiev and Krasus gradually heated up, Malfurion on the side was nervous. He was afraid that these two important partners would fight because of misunderstanding, which would have a serious impact on their mission. "Well, we are all here for the same goal, there is no need to start an internal conflict here." Archdruid Malfurion immediately stepped forward and tried to defuse the tense atmosphere, "Our goal is the Dragon Soul, let's work together and not be distracted by these trivial matters." Then, he turned to Krasus and changed the subject in a calm tone: "You told me before that you and Neltharion are both dragons, so he is most likely to be aware of your presence. He must have anticipated that other dragons might try to steal the Demon Soul, so he must have made all preparations. Krasus nodded and replied: "Indeed, we dragons are extremely sensitive to the power of the Dragon Soul. But because of this, we are more likely to keep a distance from that thing to avoid alerting the enemy. Moreover, I have always been very careful and try not to expose myself to Neltharion's perception range. "
Malfurion agreed after hearing this: "You are right. As long as the disc is still in Neltharion's hands, you dragons will always be at risk. I believe many dragons want to try to take it back... The Earth Guardian will naturally think so. He must be wary of dragon magic in the cave, especially your detection magic. Therefore, we need to make plans more carefully."
"But he is a guardian dragon after all..." Krasus pouted and said slowly with a long frown.
Malfurion thought that he would go on to explain a lot of truth, explaining why Malfurion's idea was wrong, trying to correct his own point of view, but unexpectedly, the red dragon mage just sighed in the end. , nodded seriously: "You are right. We will indeed consider trying to steal the dragon soul, and Neltharion will definitely anticipate that we have such an idea. I know him too well, we have worked together before Fighting, intimacy. Maybe I was so eager to get that thing that I ignored it. I was quite lucky to get here smoothly. However, I am sure that a dragnet has been set in his lair. Waiting for other dragons to fall into the trap."
"That's what I think." After hearing this, Malfurion turned to Maiev and advised earnestly: "Look, no matter how much strength the dragon clan contributed in the war, they, like us, never want the dragon The soul falls into the hands of Neltharion. At this point, our interests are consistent, so we can completely trust Mr. Krasus in dealing with the Dragon Clan. It is our precious wealth.”
After thinking about everything clearly, Krasus finally let go of the dragon's arrogance and began to explain patiently: "Maev, you must not underestimate the ancient gods. Although the power of these guys may not be comparable to the moon god Ai you worship. They are comparable to Luen, but their strength is definitely not comparable to that of the Wild Demigods. If Neltharion's fall is indeed related to the ancient gods, then the power trying to protect the Dragon Soul is definitely not Neltharri. Oh, a dragon. I strongly suspect that the ancient gods may have laid an unimaginable trap in it."
After Xalatas heard this, a glimmer of light flashed in her eyes. She keenly captured the key information in Krasus's words, which coincided with some of her thoughts.
But she was more concerned about another detail.
"So," she asked in Levin's mind with some surprise, ".||This Krasus was really sent from the future to the present by Nozdormu? No wonder he knows these things well."
It was only now that she truly began to believe in the existence of time travelers, and was amazed by this wonderful phenomenon of traveling through time and space.
Then, her curiosity turned to Levin: "I just discovered that Master, you seem to know more details than these people from the future, but you have always been tight-lipped and unwilling to share with others. This makes me can't help but guess. ………………
She said slowly: "Could it be that...Master, you are also from the future?"
Levin smiled mysteriously and did not answer directly. Instead, he asked: "What do you think?"
There is certainly a reason why Levin maintains such a noncommittal answer.
He himself is a cautious person, so he knows very well that maintaining a certain sense of mystery is crucial when dealing with shrewd people like Xal'atath. Only in this way, she could not fully pry into his inner world and find out Levin's bottom line - and until she understood everything, she had to always remain cautious and reverent.
After dealing with Xal'atath, Levin turned his attention to Krasus and Malfurion, smiled slightly, and took the initiative to say: "I happen to have some unique insights about the traps that the ancient gods may have set."
As soon as these words came out, both Malfurion and Krasus showed strong interest. They never expected that this Druid, who usually seemed a bit maverick, could bring them unexpected revelations at a critical moment.
Levin paused, then continued: "This method was discovered accidentally in Neltharion's treasure house when I was deeply exploring his lair. I think this may be of use to us."
Of course, he never mentioned Xal'atath's existence.
"Although we have some clues, it is not easy to steal the disc easily." Krasus' tone softened a lot. He turned to Levin and Maiev, with approval in his eyes, "However, I must say , your courage and wisdom are indeed admirable. It is not an easy task to be able to explore Neltharion's lair for so long and not only find the secret room hiding the dragon soul, but also find the spell to open it. ”
"It's just that that kind of spell took some time to prepare, so I had to leave the cave at that time." Levin shrugged lightly and said helplessly: "Although I found the location of the secret room, if I can't enter, then all the efforts will be in vain. It's all in vain. There are dangers in that cave, especially the huge number of goblins, which is much more difficult to deal with than we thought. If we want to successfully obtain the Dragon Soul, we must work closely to face these challenges."
