Furnace hall, nearly ten minutes after the fierce battle.
"Cough... Thank you, great guardian."
The weak ignes sits cross legged on the ground. The wound on his forehead has not yet healed. In fact, because it is a wound formed by the battle between order and chaos, the wound will almost never heal without special treatment. Fortunately, after nearly 10 minutes of suffering from hell, the runic giant of the most ancient forger finally regained his consciousness.
Well, it''s not a complete recovery. Dick''s slightly hot left hand proves this, but at least he has recovered most of his reason. The existence of guardian is different from that of ordinary people. Even in this state, he can rely on himself to suppress the inner chaos, at least it will not become worse.
Relying on the power of order, it is not a simple thing to dispel the chaos of a guardian. Even Dick now feels a little tired, but fortunately his body is different from ordinary people, and he can recover as before with a little rest.
In the face of ignes'' thanks, Dick waved his hand. He stood in front of ignes. Although he was much more powerful than the master of the stove in terms of combat effectiveness, even if the giant was sitting on the ground, the contrast between the two people was just like human and mouse.
"If it wasn''t for you, I''m afraid I wouldn''t be able to survive for long."
Ignes looked at the building behind audur with some fear. He whispered, "that voice began to appear in my heart thousands of years ago. I don''t even know when I was defeated. It''s terrible... It''s really terrible. The prisoner has escaped, but we don''t know about it."
"That''s why I''m here, master. Tell me, what''s going on inside audur?"
Dick looks into ignes'' eyes. He doesn''t believe that he is the guardian who has recovered his sense. But there is no doubt that he is still affected by chaos. Even the order power of the silver hand can''t completely dispel it. Facing the radiation of a complete ancient god, Dick is very reluctant to ensure that he won''t be affected.
"It''s bad..."
The giant''s voice was low. It seemed that he thought of something bad. He sighed, "2000 years ago, I couldn''t enter the inner ring any more. The high-level guardians closed their hall. Even the front hall and the observatory were tightly sealed. The iron and Steel Council allowed the crazy iron and steel legions to destroy everywhere. No one stopped them. Their temperament changed greatly, I can''t remember the passage of time clearly. I only remember that Lord millon locked himself in the laboratory of wisdom spark after that experimental accident. Lord Freya focused on his greenhouse of life, while hodir completely blocked his winter temple with the harsh winter. Torum... Right! Torrem escaped here... I remember very well, he left... Where is he? "
Dick looks at the giant and then drops his eyelids,
"It''s a pity that torrim may have escaped chaos, but he didn''t escape the conspiracy. Loken deceived him, so he''s back now. In your opinion, he in that state can''t escape the corrosion of chaos."
"Loken! by the way! It''s Loken... It''s that guy who started all this! "
Ignes''s voice suddenly became thick, rising together with the flame behind him. Obviously, the mood of the person in charge of the stove began to be angry.
"That traitor! We all misjudged him! After Lord Odin left, he ordered to block the deepest prison. At first, we thought it was for better travel responsibility, but now we think it is to realize some evil plan! Even more than one steel soldier has seen him. They have seen him go into the cage alone, always staying for a long time... We are too slow to see the abnormality of Loken! "
"He did all those terrible things, yes! this is it! Loken should still be in the lightning hall! I''m going to kill him
"Calm down! Master of the furnace, under the power of the ancient god, control your emotions... And Loken is dead. "
Dick''s reply stunned Agnes who had just struggled to get up for a moment. His face was dull, but then he sat back on the ground, patted his thighs and laughed,
"Dead? Good death! Ha ha ha, good death
Looking at Ignace''s face, which seemed not to be false, he repeatedly confirmed the trustworthiness of the giant in front of him. The paladin was relieved. He stood up from the stone platform and waved his hand to Ignace,
"It''s the only good news to see you recover. You have a good rest. If you have spare strength, you might as well go to the training ground to help those mortals fight against the iron Legion. I''m leaving."
"Wait... There are mortals in here?"
Ignes stopped Dick, who turned to leave. His face seemed to struggle, but he finally breathed a sigh of relief. "Forget it, in extraordinary times, you can''t abide by those bad beliefs, but if you still go deeper, you have to take these two things!"
Dick turned his head and saw two things that the man in charge of the stove pulled out of the crucible on his chest. They were a gray Rune and an irregular metal block. They looked like handles.
The paladin curiously took these two things and asked,
"What is this?"
The master of the stove scratched his head, and the sparks were moving at his fingertips. "This stone can control colongarn. When Odin left oldur, Loken ordered me to build a rock giant guarding the front hall. It has no thought, but its pure brute force is terrible. When I realized something wrong, it was probably in the idea of self preservation, I quietly left this control stone. With it, colongarn won''t attack you any more, so it will be easier to enter the inner ring. But be careful, ollia, my colleague, the Archivist of audur, she should be wandering inside the inner ring. She must be in chaos like me, and she is stronger than me! "
Agnes looked at dick with a prayer in his eyes. "If you can, great guardian, please help her. Ollia is peaceful, and she knows a lot of audurie''s secrets. You will use them!"
Dick nodded and put away the rune properly,
"Don''t worry, master. I''m not a butcher. What about this one? What''s this? "
Dick raised the metal handle in his other hand, and ignes'' expression became solemn,
"This... Is a fragment of the scepter of the world! I don''t know if you''ve ever heard of it. It''s another name. It''s valaner the hammer of the ancient kings. It was once given to yurell Shixin by the last great Guardian Lai. It''s the first earth spirit made by Titan himself. It''s also the ruler and leader of all earth spirits. He used this scepter to help Titan make the first generation of life. It''s said that this is the secret treasure of Titan, It represents a higher symbol
Agnes looked at the handle of the scepter held by Dick in awe. His voice became softer and softer. "In my memory, there was the shadow of yurell holding the scepter of the world. The good-natured Earth Spirit placed the scepter on the stone, and the stone quickly formed the body of the Earth Spirit, and gave him real wisdom and soul, It is said that the spirit of the ancient kings attached to the scepter can bring the users omnipresent protection, even real "upgrade". And I can be sure that the scepter originated from more ancient times, at least before we appeared, it already existed, the most intelligent guardian... I mean Loken who has not fallen into the dark, he once said, This Scepter may have come from another world, from the history of the great Titans. "
The person holding the stove stopped, and his voice became sad at this moment,
"But the misfortune came one after another. Shortly after Titan left, the kind yurell died in an accident. We thought it was really just an accident... The scepter of the world broke and disappeared mysteriously. Until about 5000 years ago, I found this handle in the corner of the proving ground. At that time, the atmosphere of audur was very wrong, So I didn''t tell anyone else about it, but I seriously doubt that the rest of the artifact should still be inside audur. "
Ignes''s words made Dick hold the handle tightly in his left hand, which is related to the tips left by nogannon in his last task. The secret hidden by vallanar''s hammer of the ancient guardian is much deeper than it seems. He once imagined that the real world would not divide a hammer into 30 pieces, as in the game, but he did not expect that, The first fragment was hidden in ignes'' hands.
Luckily I didn''t kill him!
The expression on Dick''s face was interpreted as surprise by ignes, so the person in charge of the stove introduced the precious part of the fragment to dick in detail,
"Don''t underestimate it, big guardian. In fact, I think it''s because I keep it that I can maintain my ignorant consciousness until now. Without it, I might have been entangled in chaos like other guardians thousands of years ago. In the chaotic brain scene at that time, my only clear idea was to study this fragment, This is a real priceless treasure. You need to find it and find a way to re integrate it. I believe that if you want to fight against yugosaron, this Scepter can definitely give you a great help. I believe that! "
"Well, I believe it, too."
Dick took back the slightly rough handle of the scepter and put it in the storage ring. He pondered for a moment and asked, "do you have any suggestions for me about the high-level guardians?"
"Well, let me think about it. The damned chaos has made my memory a little confused. Oh, yes!"
Agnes propped his chin with the palm of his hand, then slapped himself on the thigh and said aloud, "Freya, yes! Lord Freya, if you want to deal with high-level guardians, I suggest you go to the life greenhouse first. Lord Freya may still be sober! But I can''t guarantee that... "
"Oh? What do you say? "
Dick felt more and more that it was right for him to save ignes. The guardian who had been in audur all the time obviously gave him too many surprises. In the face of his doubt, ignes scratched his head again,
"First of all, Lord Freya was the last one to close her own hall. Then I vaguely remember that just before she closed the greenhouse of life, she sent one of her incarnations out of audur. It is said that she went to the solacha basin to maintain the ecology, which was her experimental site. You probably don''t know, for high-level guardians, An avatar is equivalent to a wisp of consciousness. If her avatar stays in the solacha basin all the time, it means that she has at least a wisp of consciousness, which means that you have a great chance to wake her up! At least it''s a lot bigger than the others! "
"The most dangerous thing is millon. In my confused memory, Millon''s character has changed a lot since that experimental accident. He no longer uses his wisdom to maintain the balance of the world, but begins to study very dangerous things... His proving ground is also full of debris, So if you want to face him... Be very careful! "
"Well! Thank you for the information
Dick nodded to ignes, and the burner waved wearily,
"You''re welcome, great guardian, I should thank you... Wait, let me see your weapon, that sword!"
Dickens gave a pause, but then he handed the wind chasing sword to ignes. The most ancient forger was the first blacksmith in Azeroth''s history. His initiative to make this request might mean something special.
The fireman took Dick''s wind sword, which was equivalent to a two handed Epee for ordinary people, but it was like a toothpick in his hand. He turned the wind sword over and over, and finally shook his head with regret,
"Unfortunately, it should have become a weapon with its own soul. It has this qualification, but the element creature that injected energy into it was too weak, which limited its limit. It lost the chance to become a more spiritual weapon."
Dick shrugged his shoulders. He was not surprised by this answer. Don''t forget that the paladin himself is also a master blacksmith. He had guessed the hidden danger of the wind chasing sword long ago, but the next sentence of ignes made the paladin rekindle his hope.
"I can help you modify the sword to make it more possible, but big guardian, it''s a two-sided choice. I will completely empty the original element power of the sword for you, and make it a piece of white paper. Its power will drop a lot, and it will lose its adaptability to lightning. It will take you a long time to infect and change it with your own power, It may be a long process until it gives birth to its own soul and completes the real sublimation... Would you like to? "
Dick stretched out his left hand, and a golden ray of thunder ran between his fingers,
"Help me to modify it, ignes. Like it, I''m looking for self sublimation. Compared with others, I hope this sword can accompany me to the end... I''m a nostalgic person."
The master nodded. He stood up and picked up his forging hammer,
"So, I can help you shift the original element of the sword to another weapon, and it''s not wasted. After all, this is the essence of a powerful element. It''s too bad to give up like this. You can give it to others."
Dick nodded happily, took a pile of ingots from his storage ring, and gave them to the person in charge of the stove,
"Then just make a blessing of the wind chaser according to its shape. My wife''s weapon has just been damaged, and she also needs a new sword. Please, Agnes."
"Ha ha ha"
The person in charge of the stove clapped his stomach and gave out a hearty laugh. "It''s my honor to serve you, the new owner of audur."
