Strangely enough, there are still many people in Quel'Thalas who don't know Sarlayan's true identity, and more night elves know the inside story than those in the country.
[It’s not Darkan’s fault. If that guy doesn’t fall for a day, I always feel restless. 】
[The problem is, you can't take advantage of him. That old fox can stretch and retract freely. He can still hold back from jumping out even when the old king forces him to do so. It's hard to deal with! 】
[To give you an idea, it may not be correct. Will Darkan really become a good person? 】
【impossible! 】
[Dreams are beautiful, but it’s a pity...]
[If he was really good, he wouldn't sit idle in the council all day long. He should give Kael'thas some advice to show his loyalty, right? 】
"Um……"
Sarlayan said thoughtfully: "However, in fact, Darkan is still pretending to be dumbfounded in the parliament, obviously unwilling to do so."
"Once we relax against him, he might immediately seize the opportunity to bite us back."
[Yes, they are all old foxes who are thousands of years old. What do you tell him about Liaozhai? Keep riding the donkey to see the cost. Let’s wait and see who can’t stand it first. 】
Shandis didn't know what Sarlayan was thinking, and Valeela noticed something from Sarlayan's sudden silence, but she didn't ask questions in front of outsiders.
Mount Hyjal is the highest altitude area in Azeroth, and the regular entrance is located in the southwest near Winterspring.
Starting from the foot of the mountain, a winding mountain road leads directly to the top of the mountain. It requires many turns back and forth during the climb.
Sarlayan and others flew directly into the mountain from the direction of Ashenvale. Under the guidance of Shandis, they flew over the southern foot of the mountain, climbed directly to the vicinity of Malorne Sanctuary, and found the crystal clear lake.
"Here we are, right here."
Shandis was the first to jump off the Chimera's back and stood by the lake to introduce Sarlayan and others.
"This is the Turtle Lake. Tortola is sleeping at the bottom of the lake. He has never woken up since the end of the War of the Ancients."
Although Sarlayan has no personal experience, he can get a glimpse of it from the documents preserved by the high elves.
The head-on battle with the Burning Legion was extremely brutal, and even the powerful demigods of the wilderness perished in pieces.
Tortola survived with his unparalleled defense, but he was also seriously injured during the battle, and fell asleep for 10,000 years after the battle.
"correct."
Sarlayan suddenly remembered something.
"This may be a bit rude to ask, but how did the Wolf God Goldrinn survive the War of the Ancients?"
Goldrinn didn't have Tortola's perverted defense capabilities.
In terms of overall combat ability, excluding the white tiger Xuen, Goldrinn is second only to the white deer Malorne among the wilderness demigods, and is almost as different as the black panther Asaman.
But...this one is very watery.
Malorne is the undisputed strongest demigod. His strength has reached the pinnacle of demigod status. He is only one step away from breaking through the bottleneck and becoming a true god. There is a gap between him and Goldrinn and Ashaman who are competing for second place. Driving a long distance.
There were complicated reasons for Malorne's fall. First, he broke into the battlefield and fought for a while before fighting Archimonde, which consumed a lot of energy.
On the other hand, he had been trying hard to protect his son Cenarius who was unable to fight back during the battle. He was distracted and was only caught by Archimonde and broke his neck.
According to the speculation of the barrage, Malorne, who is in good condition, and demigods such as Archimonde and Kil'jaeden should be on the same level, and it is impossible to easily tell the winner.
Among the demigods of the wilderness, Cenarius, who is relatively young, is a typical loser. If he is careless, he will even be taken away by drug-addicted mortals.
"Goldrin..."
Shandis raised his head and recalled: "I don't know the specific situation, but I can guarantee that he is definitely not lazy."
"When Goldrinn returned from the battlefield, he couldn't even stand, and his body was covered with bloody wounds. It was only Cenarius's efforts to save him that allowed him to survive."
"But even so, he has been recovering from his injuries in the Emerald Dream for ten thousand years, and he has not fully recovered yet."
There were only three wild demigods who survived the War of the Ancients, and two of them were half disabled. Only the weakest, Cenarius, was still alive and kicking.
[So, having a good father is really important, no matter what era or world. 】
Sarlayan placed Turtle Ji by the lake. The boy wanted to dive into the lake without even saying hello, but Sarlayan grabbed the turtle shell and lifted him back up.
"Why are you in a hurry? If you rush over now, you won't be able to wake up Tortola, so your trip will be in vain."
"come over."
Sarlayan turned Ji around, sat cross-legged on the ground by the lake, and patted the wet land in front of him.
"Those who want to enter the Emerald Dream with me should sit next to me. Leave 1-2 people to guard outside to prevent wild beasts from taking our bodies away."
Mount Hyjal is a paradise for life, with many wild animals.
Logically speaking, there will be no other beasts in Tortola's territory, but Tortola is in a state of slumber after all, so be careful and be careful, just in case, it is best to make some insurance preparations.
As a guide, Shandis must follow Sarlayan into the dream as a matter of course, and the same goes for Ji, who is the protagonist of the family recognition.
Valeera, Stellagosa, and Onyxia exchanged glances, and Sarlayan estimated that the three of them were bargaining in a certain soul link channel.
The final result of the discussion was that Valeera entered the Emerald Dream with her, while Onyxia and Stellagosa waited outside.
"Come around after we've discussed it, I'm going to start."
Stellagosa and Onyxia took two steps back consciously, and Sarlayan's fingers began to shine with a bright green light, drawing a circle around the three people and one turtle.
"Close your eyes and fall asleep."
In one breath, the consciousness of the three people separated from their bodies and sank into the blueprint world of Azeroth - the Emerald Dream.
Relying on his own strength to travel to and from the Emerald Dream for the first time, Sarlayan was still unable to control the landing point very accurately.
Shaking his head to stay conscious, Sarlayan, who was the first to come back to his senses, raised his eyes and looked at the surrounding environment.
"here it is……"
There were lush branches and leaves near the landing point, and the ground was covered with green grass. Several small animals that were not afraid of people curiously poked their heads out of the forest to observe.
"Little guy, come here."
Sharlayan used the comfort animal to attract a small squirrel, and used the druid's natural ability to try to communicate with it.
"Squeak!"
The little squirrel, which was not afraid of people, happily jumped up and down on both sides of Sarlayan's shoulders, chirping something.
"Oh? It seems that my control is not too biased."
【...Can you translate it? 】
While teasing the little squirrel with his fingers, Sarlayan said to the barrage in a funny way: "This little guy said this is Mount Hyjal, but it's not the Turtle Lake on the west side of the mountain where we dreamed before, but the Ivey in the middle. Near the Temple of Na."
Avina is known as the Mother of Birds and the Demigod Messenger. Her race is Storm Crow. The Druid's Storm Crow transformation prototype comes from her.
Avina, the mother of all birds, originally lived on the mother tree Garnier and had a symbiotic relationship with Garniel.
After Avina died in the War of the Ancients, the mother tree Garnir also withered. Malfurion only had time to cast a spell to save the last twig.
In order to wake up the seriously injured and sleeping Inas, Malfurion once generously lent the Garnier twigs to Sharlayan, and he recovered them after the ceremony was completed.
As the blueprint world of Azeroth, the environment of the Emerald Dream has not been affected by the Great Sundering and is still a complete ancient Kalimdor continent.
The holy mountain of Hyjal was not affected much during the War of the Ancients, and the environment inside and outside the dream was almost exactly the same.
The only difference is the giant tree at the top of the mountain.
The giant tree in the material world is Nordrassil, the world tree grown from the seeds of Garniel, while in the Emerald Dream it is the true form of the mother tree Garniel.
After Valeela and Shandris woke up one after another, Sharlayan entrusted them to take care of Ji who was not yet awake. He transformed into a storm crow and flew high into the sky to observe the surrounding terrain.
Just as the little squirrel said, the place where Sarlayan and his party entered the Emerald Dream was on the east side of Avina Temple, not far from the giant Garnier tree on the top of the mountain.
"who?!"
Avina is known as the Mother of Birds, and most of her followers are raptor druids.
Not long after Sarlayan took off, a large group of storm crows surrounded him and cautiously blocked Sarlayan's path.
"Uh~"
Sarlayan said innocently: "I am Sarlayan Deep Shadow. I entered the Emerald Dream this time because I was entrusted by someone. If I have something to do, I want to see Tortola, the turtle demigod. Have any of you heard of my name?"
