Although looking at the time scale of changes in the earth's crust, ten thousand years is too short a period of time, too short to produce changes visible to the naked eye. But what really affected the landscape of Azeroth was the catastrophe caused by the collapse of the Well of Eternity.

At this time, the platform where Tyr's Tomb is located has not yet been formed. The guardian's tomb is only located on a peak in the northwest mountain range of Tirisfal Glades. It is not like the way it was in later generations, where it was widely regarded as big or small.

, it is said that it was submerged by the lake, which is not a small lake.

Looking around, we can see that the intentionally modified peak platform is very flat. There is a spring gurgling out from the southwest corner where the huge boulders lie, and then it converges into a small stream, which circles the peak and then rushes down the mountain. Due to the terrain difference, a small stream is formed.

There are dozens of small waterfalls, and the scene is quite spectacular. The top of the mountain is densely covered with towering ancient trees, and the birds are singing and the flowers are fragrant. It is a grand scene.

There were hundreds of flesh and blood Vrykul, as well as dozens of new mogu, as well as some black dragons, dragon beasts and draconians under Nefarian. They were all concentrating on arranging protective spells, setting up traps and hiding positions.

, in order to consolidate the defense of this place.

According to the marching speed of the Corrupted Army, maybe they will pass by the foot of the southwest mountain tomorrow or the day after tomorrow. Once Loken intends to get involved in the Tomb of Tyr, a big battle will inevitably happen, so some preparations must be made in advance.

Nefarian found a woodland with sparse trees and slowly landed Angmar.

As soon as they landed, Nomilon, the leader of the Tyrian Guards, stepped forward and said, "We have opened the passage to the tomb."

Angmar nodded in response, and then saw several griffins at the edge of the woodland that were quite similar to the Hinterland griffins raised by the Wildhammer dwarves in the Eagle's Nest Mountain in later generations. He no longer wondered why the other party was one step ahead of him.

Arrived.

It seems that the ancestors of mankind began to domesticate griffins as early as this era.

Although the endurance is far less than that of the dragon, the short-distance flight speed of the griffon is similar to it, and it can even be slightly better when sprinting at full strength. It is not surprising that a griffin is driving ahead in this short journey of more than ten kilometers.

.

Seeing their arrival, a new mogu and a black dragon with a higher status also came over and reported to Angmar and Nefarian on the progress of the work during this period. After listening to the report, the two of them gave a few words of advice each.

, then walked towards the entrance of the Tomb of Tire under the guidance of Nomilon.

During this period, the Tomb of Tyr was still intact, completely obscured by profound magic, making it inaccessible. When he first arrived here and had not yet received the help of Tyr's guards, Angmar had doubled down on this.

Feel surprised.

Because the tomb is so strong, even with his strength, it would take at least several months to violently break down the defense facilities at the entrance.

In later generations, even if the secrets of Uldaman were revealed by explorers, mortals would obtain the Norgannon Disc that recorded countless extraordinary knowledge, and learn that it was the Titans who brought order to the world, but for those who uphold the will of the Titans to protect them,

The guardians of this hard-won achievement still lack sufficient understanding. Even scholars generally believe that the guardians cannot be compared with the guardian dragons at all.

This is because since the history of mortals has gradually become clearer, the presence of the guardian has been too low. In fact, the guardian is not only equivalent in strength, but also far exceeds the knowledge of the guardian dragon. Azadas and

The various protective measures implemented by Ellonnaya when building the Tomb of Tyr are the best evidence of this.

Not to mention Angmar, even if Loken, the King of Wisdom, who is also a guardian, and all the other guardians corrupted by Yogg-Saron come here, it will be difficult to break through the protection of the tomb in a short time.

Angmar guessed that the reason why the Tomb of Tyr was so damaged in later generations was definitely not due to time. Judging from the level of protection of the tomb at this time, even if it has been a hundred thousand or a million years, it should never have changed.

The main reason for this is probably the collapse of the earth. In the face of such a catastrophe that Mo Ran can't resist, no matter how perfect the protection is, it is no different.

At this time, a large number of flesh and blood Vrykul spellcasters were standing at the entrance, using magic to maintain this passage that was usually hidden and extended straight to the underground space diagonally below.

When passing by, Angmar also noticed the magic they used.

The Vrykul are not good at arcane magic. In other words, this kind of creation was created by the guardians and was originally used as a charging warrior. Spellcasters are not their mainstream. Even so, it is still a Titan creation.

He is born with a supernatural affinity for magic, and has an inheritance far beyond that of mortal races.

He was really curious as to how humans, as descendants of Titan creations, had lost their inheritance and were reduced to the point where they needed the teachings of high elves to re-understand the arcane ways.

He discovered that the spellcasting style of flesh and blood vrykul mages was completely different from that of mortals, which was not surprising. The basis of the arcane magic for mortals in later generations was all based on an upper elf mage named Metri during this period.

He accidentally summoned Alunes, and with the latter's help, he understood the secrets of the universe, wrote many magic books that far exceeded the knowledge of ancient times, and left many scrolls recording special spells.

——Speaking of which, Alunes, an arcane creature from another world, is quite unlucky. He was summoned by the curious blue dragon to study it for many years, but at least the blue dragon treated him very kindly. The real unlucky thing is still there

Later. Thousands of years later, Aegwynn, who became the first female mage and the first female guardian in history, once again summoned Alunes and directly imprisoned her in a staff, thus creating an extremely powerful weapon.

An arcane artifact to fight against the Burning Legion. This staff is named after Aluneth. When fighting against the incarnation of the fallen titan Sargeras, Aluneth also tricked Aegwynn. I don’t know if it was

He was resentful of her for detaining him. In short, he did not respond to her call and did not contribute his magic power. In the end, Aegwynn had to take out Atiesh, which had been passed down by guardians for generations, and finally "annihilated it"

"The incarnation of Sargeras.

Closer to home, the arcane magic system of later generations, whether it is the magic that the high elves are proud of or the magic of Dalaran, is actually further studied and deepened on the basis of the magic scrolls of the upper elf Maitri.

What is arcane magic? It is a concrete manifestation of the original power of order, and Titan is the most powerful individual in the field of order. If the creation of Titan comes from the arcane system of Titan, which is similar to the backward and primitive arcane system of mortals,

That's weird.

However, after observing for a while, he discovered that the arcane methods of the flesh and blood Vrykul were more profound, but also mixed with a superficial feeling that seemed to have just been comprehended on their own, and had not yet been systematically improved. In short,

In fact, it is somewhat similar to the spellcasting method of the New Mogu. It seems that they have inherited the spellcasting ability inherent in the Titan creations to a certain extent, but they have not inherited it completely.

After observing this, Angmar suddenly felt enlightened.

The reason why mankind's magic inheritance was interrupted is probably due to the catastrophe more than ten thousand years ago. Although the curse of flesh and blood caused it to lose its previous orderly form, it did not completely deprive it of its magic affinity, otherwise future generations would not be able to

There are so many talented human mages who far surpass the famous master of high (blood) elves.

The flesh and blood Vrykul were far away from their hometown and cut off contact with the rest of creation. Shortly after taking root here, Uldaman closed itself off again, and then there were earth-shattering and other shocking catastrophes. After several disasters, the inheritance was interrupted, and knowledge

Losing it is nothing to be surprised about.

Before entering the underground passage, Nefarian deliberately transformed into a humanoid race, otherwise he would definitely not be able to enter given his size.

What surprised Angmar was that his human form turned out to be that of a flesh-and-blood Vrykul. He was tall and strong, more than three meters tall. He was wearing gorgeous pure black armor and a long cloak that swept the floor. He looked very heroic.

"What's wrong?" Sensing Angmar's gaze, the "flesh vrykul" asked doubtfully.

"Nothing," Angmar shook his head, "It's just a little strange. Don't the five-color dragons generally take the form of night elves in human form?"

Nefarian followed Nomilon into the passage first and explained: "It used to be, but since the appearance of the flesh and blood Vrykul, we black dragons are more willing to transform into flesh and blood Vrykul. The night elves are too slender.

Even a black dragon can't bear that feeling of weakness."

Angmar asked as he walked: "Then why don't you transform into Vrykul? I mean the kind of healthy Vrykul who are not infected with the curse of flesh and blood."

"We are a race of flesh and blood, how can we turn into stone? Even if we change, we can only imitate its shape, but the body is still flesh and blood." Nefarian's expression was a bit wonderful, as if he was surprised that Angmar would ask such an incompetent question

The problem.

Angmar suddenly realized it. He thought to himself that it turns out that the black dragons in later generations generally took the form of humans and had a historical origin.

Although the Tomb of Tire has not been connected to the outside world for ten thousand years, there is no sense of death and silence, and the air is still extremely fresh. The walls engraved with Titan inscriptions are flowing with bright light, dispelling all the darkness, and there is no trace of the tomb.

It feels more like an underground temple, sacred and solemn.

After walking for about ten minutes, when we arrived almost hundreds of meters underground, our eyes suddenly opened up. Here was a magnificent hall, no different from the main hall of the Tomb of Tyr in Angmar's memory.

Nomilon, who was leading the way, introduced.

"Prophet, this is the main hall of the tomb. On the left is the passage leading to the Zakaz sealing place. Tyr's body is buried deep under our feet, and his silver arm and Silver Hand war hammer are above our heads.

The operation center of the tomb is in a magical position, supplying energy to the defense facilities of the entire tomb, and providing the power of order to suppress Zakaz's resurrection. In fact, we only know the entry and exit methods of the tomb, and the operation of the defense facilities has always been done by Aza

The two guardians Das and Elonaya are responsible for the established procedures left here. If you want to strengthen the defense of the tomb, it is best to start here, but we can't help much."

Just when Angmar raised his head to observe the silver arm and Silver Hand warhammer fixed on the top of the hall by magic chains, a sizzling sound suddenly came from behind him.

He looked back and saw that Nefarian, who had transformed into a strong flesh-and-blood Vrykul, was being enveloped by a purifying beam shining from the ceiling. Black smoke was exuding from his entire body. Nefarian was not much.

He was panicked and said with some surprise: "Why did these defense facilities attack me? I am not a shadow creature... Phew, it still hurts."

"Sir, any shadow aura will activate the defense facilities of the tomb. In the battle a few days ago, it was the defense facilities at the entrance of the hall that blocked Loken's minions and bought us time." Nomilon explained.

, conveniently closed the defense facility and liberated Nefarian.

Nefarian said helplessly: "Well, maybe when I was hit by Loken's magic a few days ago, the shadow breath entered my body."

Angmar shook his head secretly, thinking that it was not caused by Loken's magic, but your father. After the Black Dragon King fell, his bloodline had long been corrupted, and all descendants with the blood of Neltharion flowing in their veins would

Decline inevitably ensues.

In other words, this shadow aura actually comes from the ancient gods.

Angmar then turned back to the Hammer of the Silver Hand.
