The amount of information taken in at once was too much, and Drek'Thar's brain was still a little overwhelmed.
Blocking out the influx of chaotic thoughts for the time being, Drek'Thar forced himself to collect his mind and return his attention to the matters that urgently needed to be dealt with in front of him, temporarily ignoring Sharlayan's questioning.
"Let's not mention anything else... The world of shadow where all the dead live does exist, and Durotan and Draka are settling in the country of the dead called Maldraxxus?"
Sarlayan felt somewhat regretful that he could not take the opportunity to persuade Drek'Thar to open up the Frostwolf clan. He shrugged and replied: "Durotan did fight in Maldraxxus and became a baron of the Soul Chosen Academy. .”
"At least Draka has not yet arrived in Maldraxxus before I leave the Shadowlands, but I guess that will be a matter of time."
Drek'Thar, who gradually returned to normal, asked calmly: "Why? Do you know the rules of absorbing souls in the Shadow Realm?"
Sarlayan raised his brows and said with admiration: "As expected of the chief shaman of the Frostwolf clan, his mind works very quickly."
"Yes, there is an unspoken rule for absorbing souls in the Shadow Realm. They will give priority to souls that can produce more anima."
Sarlayan stretched out his right index finger and explained solemnly: "Anima is the energy necessary to maintain the normal operation of the Shadow Realm. It is produced by the souls who come to the Shadow Realm."
"The amount of anima depends on the soul's experiences during its lifetime. The soul with richer experiences will produce more anima."
"To put it simply, no matter whether the soul was a villain who destroyed the world or a hero who saved the world, as long as this kind of soul has made outstanding achievements, it will provide a lot of anima to the Shadow Realm."
"Since both Durotan and Draka can meet this condition to a certain extent, the messengers from the Shadow Realm will naturally give priority to recruiting them into their ranks."
Drek'Thar nodded suddenly: "I see. So, without the role of Washugu in attracting the souls of ancestors, those orc souls who have made outstanding achievements would also be invited to join the Shadow Realm first? "
Sarlayan spread his hands: "That's it. The souls protected by K'urei will be difficult to be sensed by the messengers of the Shadow Realm due to the energy shielding effect. That's why you can go to Oshugu to worship and seek your ancestors day after day. of wisdom.”
"But with Gul'dan's series of tricks, your ancestor's soul has almost reached its limit."
Regardless of whether K'urei finally degenerates into the Dark Naaru or is rescued by the Draenei and the expeditionary force, the souls of the orc ancestors absorbed by him will "ascend to heaven" without exception.
...The only difference is whether it is physically ascending to heaven or being connected to the Shadow Realm.
With the endorsement of Durotan himself, Drektar had actually accepted Guyin'er and even regarded him as the reserve chief of the Frostwolf clan.
This is what Gu Yin'er deserves.
However, Guyin's behavior that was incompatible with the orc tradition still made Drektal a little annoyed. He planned to teach Guyin the knowledge he must know as an orc chief before officially supporting Guyin as the chief. and common sense.
Sarlayan has no objection to this. If he always behaves more like a human than an orc, it will be difficult for Gu Yin'er to be recognized by the Frostwolf clan... or even all the orcs in the tribe.
No matter what he thinks in his heart, he must at least pretend it on the surface to make the orcs think that Guyin'er is their kind, so that they will willingly obey Guyin'er's orders.
According to the original plan, Sharlayan's trip to Hillsbrad and Alterac only ended with escorting Gu Yin'er to join the Frostwolf clan.
Sarlayan believes that after this period of words and deeds, he has left a big mark on Gu Yin'er's heart.
For a long time to come, Guyin'er will stay in the Frostwolf clan to replenish his knowledge, gradually transform from a rough gladiator to a transcendent shaman among the orcs, and officially embark on the legendary journey of becoming a salvation shaman. road.
In order to ensure that Guyin'er would not be brainwashed by Drek'Thar's traditional orc customs, Sarlayan specifically persuaded the old shaman and made an exception to allow Talesa to stay with Guyin'er to take care of him.
Knowing that Gu Yin'er had not distorted his views all these years under the careful care of Taresha, Drek'Thar didn't say it, but he was very grateful to this kind and innocent human girl in his heart.
When Sarlayan proposed to let Talitha stay, he just pretended to do so for a short while, and then nodded in agreement on the grounds that he would repay Talitha's upbringing for Guyin'er.
Nazgrin and other orc veterans have suffered a lot over the years and finally settled down in the Frostwolf clan. They also want to take this opportunity to cultivate themselves.
Although Guyin'er has not yet passed the test of Drek'Thar and officially became the chief of the Frostwolf clan, his birth means that the Frostwolf clan cannot regard him as an ordinary clansman, and he still has privileges.
If the Frostwolf clan had followed the policy of escaping from the outside world, these foreign orcs would have been ruthlessly driven away.
At Gu Yin'er's request, Drek'Thar pretended to be reluctant and agreed, taking in the exhausted Nazgrin and others.
However, Drek'Thar asked them to swear an oath in the name of their ancestors never to tell any outsiders the location of the Frostwolf Clan's retreat.
After handling Guyin'er's matter, Sarlayan will rush south to Blackstone Mountain without stopping.
After Stellagosa sent people to Tarren Mill to pick up the Foxtons, she specifically said hello to Sarlayan and told him the latest situation that Valeera had discovered through the Backlight Blade's intelligence network.
As Sharlayan expected, the Dark Iron Dwarves did not stretch their hips during this small-scale conflict, and easily blocked the symbolic attack of the weak Blackstone Orcs.
According to Dagran Thaurissan, the attack power of the Blackstone Orcs was very soft. It was obvious at a glance that they were just to cope with the mission, and the soldiers' fighting spirit was extremely low.
As for where the mission comes from... Anyone who knows the background of the Blackstone Orcs can guess it without using their brains.
That's right, it's Nefarian, the black dragon prince who suddenly went crazy for some reason.
No matter what Nefarian's sudden attack was for, judging from the result, it was actually a good thing for the Dark Iron dwarves Daglan and Moira, who were secretly preparing for a big event.
The invasion of the Blackstone Orcs involved a lot of energy in the Black Iron Council. Daglan deliberately made a generous gesture and temporarily transferred the authority to lead the army against the Blackstone Orcs to several members of the Black Iron Council who were pro-fire elements.
While these capitulationists focused their attention on the Blackstone Orcs, Daglan and Moira accelerated their plans.
More and more senior leaders of the Dark Iron Dwarves secretly defected to the Dark Iron King, determined to get rid of the enslavement of the Dark Iron Dwarves by the fire element.
If given a choice, no one would be willing to be a slave to others, and the Dark Iron Dwarves have been the Bitter Fire Elemental for a long time.
After finally seeing the opportunity to get rid of their slave status, except for the servile Japanese devils, most of the dignified Black Iron executives chose to side with Daglan.
Now that the Dark Iron Dwarves are ready to officially launch the plan, as the leader of the plan, Sarlayan must also show corresponding sincerity.
Yesterday afternoon, Valeera was teleported across the sea to the Azshara region on the other side of the Endless Sea by the mages of the Tower of Sunfury, using the energy of the Sunwell, to the newly built port city of Estorante by the night elves.
After Malfurion and Fandral Staghelm took office as Speaker and Councilor of the Night Council, although they were still nominally members of the Cenarion Circle, they actually divided their respective powers.
The reason is simple, it's just that I'm too busy.
As the Speaker who controls the direction of a country, Malfurion is really full of things to do now, and he no longer has the leisure time he had before when he was sleeping and fishing.
Fandal also shoulders the important responsibility of leading the Arctic exploration team to carefully explore the Sholazar Basin.
After all, this is the experimental garden of Titan Guardian Freya.
Although Sarlayan repeatedly assured that Freya would take care of this place flawlessly for a long time, the Shadow Realm pioneer team headed by Fandral was still a little trembling.
After the two Elder Dru'in left the Cenarion Circle one after another due to busy official duties, the actual control of the Council was transferred to the hands of Archdru'in Lunsa Gianthoof.
The construction of Port Estorante required a large amount of wood and stone.
Sarlayan's old friend Lensa Gianthoof recently came to Azshara on behalf of the Cenarion Circle to inspect the deforestation situation to ensure that the expansion of the night elves' territory would not cause irreparable damage to Azshara's forests.
Having an acquaintance meeting here saved Valila the trouble of talking.
Due to the common enemy of naga, the night elves have maintained a good cooperative relationship with the Hydrasian water elementals over the years.
The water element and the fire element have always been mortal enemies. Knowing that Sarlayan wanted to use the power of Hydracia to break through the Molten Core, the Hydraxia water element actively provided the help he could without saying a word.
As a partner of the water element, the Republic of Dark Night naturally also learned the relevant information.
Under the guidance of Rensa Gianthoof, Valeera successfully obtained the necessary props to extinguish the Molten Core's flame runes from the Hydrasian water element.
The essence of water.
