The Winter Temple was full of ice and snow debris, and the frozen and shattered Thunder Heroes were tragically dismembered and thrown into the hall covered with snow and ice.

The cold north wind howls and blows like a knife, and can lower the body temperature of ordinary people to a fatal level within a few minutes. This is simply a place of eternal freezing in myths and legends.

This temple should not be like this under normal circumstances.

It should be as exquisite and majestic as other guardian temples, and should also be filled with treasures donated by various frost giants to Hodir. The treasures are still there, but the frost giants who once came to make pilgrimages have declined.

.

Giants, this remnant of the mythical age, are quite rare in Azeroth today. Except for the sea giants, who are slightly more common, the other giants live in seclusion on the edge of the world and carefully hide themselves.

All this is thanks to the war that Thorim started rashly under the temptation of Loken. It was that war that destroyed an era.

Of course, Blake knows that this does not mean that he is interested in these ancient histories. He is currently leading the cowardly sea giant demigod Yacorok around the main battlefield of the temple where ice is splashing and the earth is shaking.

The two demigod stonemen and the winter god Hodir fought tooth and nail.

Perhaps in the void, the chaotic Hodir thought that he was only fighting to defend the temple, but to the two fierce stonemen, the big man in front of them was the fattest "piece" they had ever seen since entering the material world.

Meat".

They will not let go of this crazy guardian until their endless thirst for anima is satisfied.

"Hodir is the most autistic of all the guardians, especially after almost all of his giant family members were slaughtered, this guy has sealed himself in this temple until now.

Look at these crystal-clear ice cubes, each one tells the story of Hodir's loneliness and nostalgia. He was also a poor man living in the past."

While stepping on the heavy snow, Blake said to Yacorok behind him:

"Speaking of which, you are also a giant. There may be some kind of unrelated relationship between you and Hodir."

"Hey, how could you humiliate me like this?"

The sea giant demigod suddenly became unhappy.

It grabbed a starfish from its seaweed-like beard and threw it into its mouth, chewing it. It was full of a proud look of being settled down and proudly declared:

"We sea giants are different from these hybrid giants. We are the direct bloodline of Lord Gorgonas the Howler, and we are the noble ones closest to gods among all the giant bloodlines.

The other giants in this world were created by the Titan Guardians in order to maintain the system, but we are not! We appeared in the same era as the Guardians.

After the Howler shaped the sky and sea for Azeroth, he left us to take care of and protect the endless sea territory. If this were hundreds of thousands of years ago, Hodir would have greeted my father with respect when he saw him.

"

"Yes, yes, Gorgonas left you to take care of his favorite endless sea, but look at how 'careful' you are."

Blake said sarcastically in a long voice:

"There are Nagas, void monsters, pirates, and merchants in the sea now. Each force has its own territory and story, but you, the true 'children of the sea,' have been driven to remote areas.

If Gorgonas could see you in this embarrassing state, he would definitely crush you all to death. It's so embarrassing! Azeroth can survive to the present civilization. Whose ancestors have not been rich?

Don’t talk about the past, it’s not embarrassing enough.”

"Huh, whatever you say, it won't change the noble bloodline of our sea giants. Even when we are in dire straits, we have to maintain our dignity. This is the only thing we have left."

The sea giant demigod holding the prototype of the Tidestone curled his lips.

It probably recognized the reality of the weakness of the sea giants over a long period of time and knew that the sea giants' revival was destined to take a long time. It was mentally prepared in advance, and naturally it was not too unhappy when faced with Black's sarcasm.

What's more, Yacorok didn't just come here to listen to Blake's complaints because he had nothing to do.

It is willing to risk being killed by the big monsters in Ulduar and comes here, and it must have its own purpose.

Blake knew this, he just didn't say it.

The two people scraped the edge of the battlefield and finally bypassed the dangerous zone. Listening to Hodir's angry roar, you knew that the rough-skinned giant god could still hold on for a long time under the attack of the two stone-born demigods.

That's good.

This gave Black and Yakorok enough time to complete their work.

"This is it!"

The sea giant demigod kept moving its nose like a hound. It led the pirates everywhere in the frosty snow deep in the Winter Temple, and finally determined a place.

He placed the Tidestone of Golganes in his hand on the ground of the temple, took out a very ancient horn and put it to his mouth, then turned to Black and said:

"I want to mobilize this pure Titan power to charge the Tide Stone. After completing the charging, you need to borrow the Hammer of Khaz'goros and find a few craftsmen with good skills to hammer it twice to help the holy object heal.

The final crack.

At that time, you will have a complete Tide Stone.

This request may be difficult for others, but I feel that the Holy Hammer that forged the world is here, and it must be related to you here.

However, I want to inform you in advance, my friend Blake.

You know that I took away a small fragment of the Tide Stone before. It will not affect the power of this holy object, but it can protect us sea giants from being controlled by the Tide Stone."

Yacorok said to Black seriously:

"We can help you unconditionally, but it is out of friendship between the two parties. Although we have been in despair for countless times, as I said, as the blood of Gorgonas, we still have the last dignity.

Once this pure friendship is mixed with coercive elements, the sea giant will become your enemy."

"I understand, I understand. A contract system is not a lifetime employment system. If you ask for help, you may have to pay something. This is the equal friendship you understand."

The pirate held the scepter of Sargeras and blew out smoke rings in the cold wind. He winked and said:

"And I guess that the fragment you took away will become more powerful as the Tide Stone becomes complete and reborn. It may be able to help reunite the divided sea giants and even form an undersea kingdom.

Come, tell me quietly, my friends, are you going to launch a war against the abominable Naga to regain your ancestral land?"

Yacorok did not answer.

It blew the low-pitched horn.

The next moment, the rich water elements visible to the naked eye gathered into torrents in the cold palace, and even the cold wind in the Winter Temple was temporarily blocked.

They wrapped and held up the original embryo of the Tide Stone, cheering like a swallow returning to its nest and blending into the irregular stone. A faint blue light began to shine inside the Tide Stone, like a strange lamp.

The lamp is lit at this moment.

The pirate felt like he was back in the sea.

His Proudmoore bloodline was activated, and he took a deep breath. The slight fishy smell and even the sound of the lapping tide echoed in his ears.

This is the right smell, the smell of the endless sea.

It was not only the divine power of the Winter Temple that was summoned here, but also streaks of lightning that shattered the surrounding ice as they jumped and merged into the swirling torrent.

That is the divine power that belongs to Storm Guardian Thorim, and is also bestowed by Gorgonas the Roarer.

The ocean and the sky, the fusion of the two is the true realm of Gorgonas.

This process did not last long, but Blake heard the roar from Hodir outside the temple, probably because part of his divine power was extracted, making the Winter King's situation more and more difficult.

General Karl was roaring and commanding, and the collision of the whistling wings made the palace seem to be crumbling. Oh my, these Stoneborn's heads are so hard, they didn't even flinch when they collided with the Titan's iron.

A few minutes later, as the last cold torrent and jumping lightning were completely absorbed by the Tidestone, Yacorok also put down his horn.

It reached out and held up the Tide Stone suspended in mid-air, caressed it nostalgically a few times, and then handed it to Blake's eyes.

It wasn't until this moment that the sea giant demigod opened his mouth to answer Black's question.

It stared into the pirate's eyes and said:

"Yes, the sea giants are going to launch a war in the deep sea next. We want to take back our ancestral land that was taken away by Naga, regain our ancient temple, and redefine the status of the sea giants in the deep sea world.

.

I know, Black, I know from the distant tide that you are Azshara's favorite, but I don't want you to participate in this war.

Nagas are not a good thing!

I destroyed the ancient sacred horn of the sea giants to help you cast the Tidestone, which represents my sincerity.

We can even obey the order of the sea led by you, but in the past countless years, we have never forgotten anything that Naga did to my children and my people.

Those ancient hatreds must be resorted to war!

Why are you willing to become Azshara's favorite?

My friend Blake, behold, the Tidestone is before your eyes, and through its power you can dominate the oceans of this world.

Azshara will also surrender to you.

I heard that there is some inappropriate relationship between you and her. Although I cannot understand your aesthetics and strange orientation, I think you can get along with her in another way."

Yacorok laughed inappropriately.

It let go of its hands and let the Tide Stone float in the pirate's hand. It asked softly:

"Don't you want to see Azshara dance in front of you with her deformed tentacles for you alone?"

"Wow, what a terrible temptation. No wonder in some funny rumors among pirates, as the God of Sea Giants, you are classified as an evil god.

I knew that you, the sea giant god with thick eyebrows and big eyes, was not a good person either.

No wonder the two of us have become like old friends after just meeting each other a few times."

Blake let out a weird laugh. He didn't promise anything to Yacorok, but put his hand on the reshaped Tide Stone in front of him.
