Light and dark sensitive parasitic symbiote, this is the official scientific name of the ancient god, originally named after the Pantheon.
Native residents of Azeroth like Sharlayan and Valeera have long been accustomed to using more popular terms to call them - the Old Gods, or the Old Gods for short.
The unabashed scientific name of "Prius" revealed his intelligence source. His knowledge of the ancient gods obviously came from the Pantheon and its affiliated institutions or personnel, otherwise he would not be able to accurately name such a difficult to pronounce scientific name.
Prius himself did not realize for the time being that because of a question of title, he revealed the fact that he was not an ordinary person to a certain extent.
After all... it's not easy to find out the scientific name.
Even titan guardians like Mimiron and Freya don't bother to call the ancient gods by the scientific name of "Light and Dark Sensitive Parasitic Symbiote", which is too many words and too difficult to pronounce. They usually call them by their first names.
For example, the ancient god Enzos and the ancient god Y'Shaarj, etc.
Sarlayan stamped his feet to the ground meaningfully: "If you are talking about the monster rooted deep in the earth under our feet... indeed, the Thousand-Eyed Demon C'Thun is its name."
Prius saw something was wrong from Sarlayan's subtle smile, but for a while he couldn't tell what was wrong.
"Okay, Prius man, I don't want to waste my time talking in circles, let's have a frank talk."
Sarlayan took the initiative to step forward and block Valeela, deliberately letting Prius focus on his body language.
Valeera used Sarlayan's cover to observe the environment of this shelter.
The projection of the Eternal One is at least a demigod, and demigods theoretically do not need to sleep, eat or drink.
Their strong bodies allow them to absorb free energy from the outside world to maintain the perpetual motion of their body functions without having to take in additional nutrients.
Therefore, the hiding place of the Prius can be described as a bare house with no furniture at all.
'...If we can't reach an agreement and start a fight, we don't have to worry about the impact of the surrounding environment. '
Prius was currently distracted by Sarlayan's bold and direct proposal, and had no time to pay attention to Valeela's little moves.
"Oh?" Prius still maintained a smile that was neither far nor near: "This..."
"Salayan."
"Okay, Sarlayan."
Prius asked with a smile: "What do you want to talk to me about?"
Sarlayan would also smile and say to the point: "Brother Prius, you are not from this world, are you?"
Prius' expression remained unchanged and he asked back: "Why do you say that?"
Sarlayan put away his smile and said seriously: "No matter who he is, as long as he exists in this world, he will definitely leave traces."
"My wife and I followed the traces you left all the way to Ahn'Qiraj. Are you sure you want to keep going in circles with us?"
The salty smile on Prius's face gradually disappeared: "So? What is your position? Flesh and blood creatures."
"Should we stand on C'Thun's side and condemn me for killing innocent people indiscriminately, or should we stand on Titan's side and help me create obstacles for the Ancient Gods?"
"Unfortunately, neither."
Sarlayan said calmly: "Now, I just want to confirm your identity and your true purpose of sneaking into Azeroth under the nose of Titan, and then use your answer to judge whether you have any interest in this world." It will pose a threat.”
"Threat...?"
Prius held his chin with one hand thoughtfully: "So, even though you are very different from the life forms of those sub-Titans, you are also the guardians of this world."
"Since you are so honest, I don't want to tell you any lies."
Prius solemnly said: "I wonder if you who were born on this planet have heard that in this vast universe that we all live together, there are not only Titans, the ultimate creatures that stand at the apex of all things."
Sarlayan smiled meaningfully: "Of course I have heard of it, the Titan's knowledge base is not a decoration."
"So, which of the six forces of the universe do you represent? Chaos? Light? Or...death?"
"Ha~"
Prius smiled again: "I've been tracing this all the way, but you already have the answer in your mind, don't you?"
Regarding Prius's acquiescence, Sarlayan nodded noncommittally: "Second question, what are your plans for collecting souls and corpses on this newly born planet?"
"Well..."
Prius's expression became a little complicated: "It's hard to explain."
"I can swear on my own honor that I have no hostility towards Azeroth and the Pantheon. I collect the souls and corpses of flesh and blood creatures just to experiment with some new things and prepare in advance for disasters that may come at any time in the future."
"disaster?"
Sarlayan crossed his arms and asked a question that he and Valeela had been unable to determine before in a sudden and deep voice.
"Could it be related to the arbitrator?"
"Um?!"
Prius's gaze suddenly became sharp, and both Valeela and Sarlayan could clearly feel the powerful aura pressing on their shoulders.
'Can projections have such power...'
Valeera narrowed her eyes slightly and touched the handle of the short knife hanging at her waist.
"You... a native creature of Azeroth, why do you know about the Arbitrator?"
Faced with Prius's shocking questioning, Sarlayan shrugged indifferently: "So I said it from the beginning, don't play riddles, you don't really think that we natives of Azeroth don't know the existence of the Shadow Realm, do you? ?”
"So? What's going on with that paranoid idealist Zoval now? Have you already taken action?"
Prius stared at Sarlayan with flickering eyes for a while, seeming to be weighing whether to kill him or silence him.
In any case, Azeroth is undoubtedly the focus of the Pantheon at this stage, and almost all Titans have set their sights on this new planet.
The Shadow Realm and the Pantheon have always been in harmony with each other.
If the Titans, who were already annoyed that their compatriots were being destroyed by the light- and dark-sensitive parasitic symbiote, knew that someone from the Shadow Realm had sneaked into Azeroth... Prius was not sure whether the other party would be furious and call for punishment.
Through the changes in Prius's eyes and demeanor, Saryan could first rule out the possibility that he was Zoval.
In the same way, the ambitious Denathrius did not seem to be someone who would show such rich emotional changes.
Theoretically, it cannot be ruled out that Gristea and the Winter Queen disguise themselves as men and travel quietly, but this is only theoretical.
Based on Saraian's knowledge of those two people, it should be impossible for them to do such a thing.
Through elimination, the true identity of the Prius has been revealed.
He is the leader of Maldraxxus, the Warmaster, who is hailed as the leader of the Shadow Realm by some players, but is considered by other players to be the biggest mastermind behind the events in the Shadow Realm.
Sarlayan did not expose the other party's identity to his face, but deliberately pretended to be uncertain and put on a tentative stance.
As the barrage said, some of the actions of the soldier leader are indeed suspicious, and it is necessary to be on guard against others.
If Prius, the projected incarnation of the war master, gets angry and tries to silence him, Sharlayan and Valeela will not be defeated quickly if they join forces to fight against the enemy.
...At worst, C'Thun, who was searching for both of them, would also be dragged into the water, giving the war leader a way to fish in troubled waters.
He hesitated for a while with twinkling eyes, perhaps because of the attitude of the old god Sarlayan, which made Prius resist the temptation. In the end, he did not choose to turn his back on him.
"Hey~"
After making up his mind, Prius sighed helplessly.
"Azeroth... No wonder the Titans attach so much importance to this new planet. It is indeed a formidable future."
After a pause, Prius continued: "Yes, just as you guessed, we... the Eternals teamed up not long ago to banish that idealistic lunatic to the Maw."
[The not long ago you mentioned...how many years ago was it? 】
[Based on the eternal concept of time... it was at least tens to hundreds of years ago, maybe thousands of years ago? 】
Sarlayan and Valeela were also curious about this issue, but in order to avoid exposing the truth, they did not inquire into the issue.
Anyway, the specific time is not important, it is enough to know that Zoval's exile has happened.
Sarlayan did not continue to inquire further and quickly brought the topic back.
"Prius, you haven't answered my second question yet."
"You, or you, avoid the Titan's gaze and enter Azeroth as a projection, what is your intention?"
Prius shook his head and said, "The answer is actually very simple."
"Although I can't understand what the future threat that guy is talking about is, from my standpoint, my responsibility is to prepare for a rainy day."
"I...or the Shadow Realm, need more powerful weapons and troops to deal with the unknown threats that will come at some point."
