Thunder Isle was a hive of activity.
The Emperor's Will Legion, the Hozen Legion, and the Yaungol Legion were tirelessly moving treasures from the Thunder King's palace, one by one, and transporting them to Saint White City through the portal at the entrance.
Since Galen ascended the throne as King of Stromgarde, he spent most of his time in the Stromgarde Royal Palace, making Saint White City the secondary capital.
However, the city remained important as it was the base of Galen's Origin Engine.
At that moment, the treasures being transported out of the portal left Thoras speechless. The Thunder King's collection alone was so vast, giving Thoras a direct and visceral understanding of Pandaria's wealth!
Taran Zhu was too embarrassed to divide the Thunder King's wealth with Galen. Although the Shado-Pan Assault contributed significantly, Qinyu and Baine deserved the most credit for directly confronting the Thunder King's army.
Moreover, Taran Zhu had been in a daze for the past few days!
The Thunder King is dead again?
How could it be so easy?
Not long ago, the Thunder King's resurrection was quite the spectacle. The entire northern sea of Pandaria was shrouded in lightning, a sight that terrified the Shado-Pan's scouts.
But before the news of the Thunder King's resurgence even reached the Valley of the Four Winds, he was gone?
It didn't really cause any damage to Azeroth.
It was too fast! He didn't even have the chance to realize his ambition of ruling Pandaria again before being killed by them after they stormed the heavily guarded Throne of Thunder?
It was like a dream!
The Thunder King had a record of defeating the Four Celestials!
Galen's strength is so terrifying!
The Alliance's potential is so great!
And just like that, Taran Zhu happily and dazedly led the Shado-Pan Assault away from Thunder Isle, eager to share the good news of the Thunder King's defeat with his compatriots, while also supporting the Jade Forest, which was being invaded by the Mogu.
Galen didn't stay on Thunder Isle for long either. Although the dark clouds in the area had been dispersed by the Storm Lord after his surrender, the environment here was still dark and humid, making for a terrible experience.
In the future, this place would only become a training ground. Galen would select outstanding individuals and send them to the Pinnacle of Storms to receive Titan power enhancements, just like the Thunder King enhanced Horridon.
But that was a matter for the future. For now, after leaving troops to continue looting the Throne of Thunder, he returned to the Vale of Eternal Blossoms with Ra-den.
"This is a familiar aura!"
After Galen dismissed the curious Alliance members who had gathered around, Ra-den stood on the platform of the Shrine of Two Moons and exclaimed.
"This valley has changed so much over the years, but the only thing that hasn't changed is this rich life energy."
With the help of the Origin Engine, Ra-den, the great guardian, was like a computer that had been poisoned and crashed, but had its system reinstalled.
The computer was still the same computer, and the system was still the same version.
But the state was different.
Hey!
He's better!
No longer withdrawn!
He had become the sunny and cheerful great guardian once again.
Galen's solution was always so simple, direct, and effective!
"After all, tens of thousands of years have passed, and it has been modified by the Mogu. It's normal for there to be some changes."
At that moment, Ra-den was radiating with lightning, indicating that Galen had returned the Heart of the Thunder to the great guardian.
Galen had been wrong about Ra-den before. He had always thought that his will was weak and that he was not worthy of being the great guardian.
But after "curing" his autism, a piece of sealed history was revealed.
In reality, Ra-den was also an unlucky fellow, and his experiences were somewhat similar to Loken's.
The Titans of the Pantheon and Sargeras had disagreements, and they agreed to negotiate on a planet called Ny'alotha in the Dark Beyond.
As a result, Sargeras annihilated the entire Pantheon. The bodies of the Titans of the Pantheon were destroyed. At the last moment, Norgannon, the Shaper of Magic, cast a spell to protect their souls, trying to send the Titan souls to Azeroth to merge with the Titan Watchers.
But this was not successful, not only because Sargeras was preventing and hunting them down, but also because the Watchers' bodies could not receive the full power of the Titan souls. In the end, only a portion of incomprehensible memories and feelings were transmitted.
If the Titan's soul was a 12TB file, then the body of a Titan Watcher on Azeroth could only be considered a USB drive. It was impossible for the Titan Watchers to accommodate such a large amount of content, which was difficult for them.
And Ra-den, as the USB drive with the largest capacity, received the most information, but also exceeded his capacity, and his spirit was impacted.
Y'shaarj was indeed dead, but the Old Gods were not so easy to completely die, especially the strongest Old God like Y'shaarj.
For tens of thousands of years, Ra-den had been suppressing the reviving consciousness of Y'shaarj in his heart. This crisis allowed Y'shaarj to see the flaws in Ra-den's mind, and he took the opportunity to fully erupt and infect Ra-den's will.
And Ra-den was worthy of being the strongest Watcher. He held on to his last bit of will and fought with Y'shaarj in his spiritual sea for tens of thousands of years.
Because the main consciousness was trapped, Ra-den, who only had the surface consciousness left, looked like a demented autistic patient.
"After this Pandaria crisis is over, I will have the Four Celestials seal this valley again."
Galen told Ra-den his plan: "At that time, we will restart the Y'shaarj's Heart, and I hope you can move the Nalak'sha Engine here and turn this place into the Titan City of the South."
This time Galen and Ra-den returned to the Vale of Eternal Blossoms to strengthen the Y'shaarj seal. If there weren't so many ordinary people in Mistfall Village now, and Galen didn't want to destroy the beautiful Vale of Eternal Blossoms like Galen Hellscream, I'm afraid Y'shaarj's will wouldn't have survived today.
"Everything will be as the Grand Warlord wishes!"
After Ra-den finished speaking, he turned into a purple ray of lightning and flew quickly towards the east.
Galen grinned and turned into golden light to chase after him.
This acceleration method was called Golden Light Escape by Galen. It was a new ability created by combining Justice Pursuit, Holy Light Acceleration, Crusader Aura, and other acceleration skills.
Although this skill was newly developed and its speed was far behind Ra-den's Lightning Escape, the space for subsequent enhancement was still very large and full of infinite possibilities.
Outside the magnificent Mogu'shan Palace, below the long staircase, there was a shaft that emitted a faint light. In the shaft, there was a pool full of life energy.
So the Mogu used the Pandaren slaves to build the Vale of Eternal Blossoms irrigation canal, flowing the spring water full of life force throughout the valley, and even diverting it to the Valley of the Four Winds.
It's just that no one, not even the first generation of Mogu, knew that there was a huge underground palace under this energy pool, used to suppress the heart of Y'shaarj underground.
With Lei leading the way, Galen directly entered the interior of this Titan dungeon through the secret passage Lei had opened.
In the wide passage, the lighting facilities were lit up one by one, and Galen could see the entire appearance of the dungeon clearly.
The space here was very large, after all, it was made by Lei, and it needed enough height for him to pass through, and the style here was exactly the same as the Nalak'sha Engine.
"Imo'sus!"
Galen followed the canal to the center of the energy pool, and saw six spring eyes on the wall flowing out from the wall, converging into a huge pool in the middle, at this moment the pool was constantly tumbling, and a huge blue water spirit appeared!
Lei had already summoned this ancient water spirit.
Tsk tsk, so big.
This was a light blue water spirit, if you had to use a word to describe it, Galen could only say big!
Very big!
Galen had seen many water elementals, as far as Gandalf was concerned, he, as a magical demigod, could transform into a legion of water elementals to fight, and the spectacle was far more awesome than Jaina during the Battle for Azeroth.
But those water elementals were at most seven or eight meters high, and even the more powerful water elemental lords didn't exceed ten meters, while the ancient Pandaren water spirit in front of Galen was probably more than twenty meters.
Moreover, unlike those water elementals, this water spirit named Imo'sus had a face similar to that of a fish, and there were shiny magic patterns on his face, obviously carefully shaped.
"This is the spirit of life in the Vale of Eternal Blossoms?"
Galen asked knowingly.
"That's right, it was born from Freya's power, and I put it here to guard the gate of the dungeon, to prevent anyone from accidentally breaking in." Lei said, looking at the awakened water spirit.
"Great Lei! You're back! I've been asleep for so long, and I haven't seen you come back! I miss you!" Imo'sus looked tall and mighty, but his voice was cute, even a little adorable.
"I'm back, Imo'sus, quickly help me open the underground passage, I need to enter!"
"Open the door! Okay, open the door! I'll open the door now!"
As Imo'sus drilled towards the ground, the water flow triggered the mechanism, and the entire dungeon, in addition to the sound of water flowing, also echoed with the rumbling sound of the mechanism turning.
Soon, the pool where Imo'sus was located began to sink, revealing a platform.
Lei took the lead and stood on it, and Galen also stepped up when he saw this, and then the platform began to descend, and they entered the second floor of the underground palace.
"Deep Corruptors are strictly prohibited from entering the Central Hall!" A loud voice came from the depths of the hall, and then the ground trembled, obviously the owner of the voice was walking over.
This was a rock giant about the same size as Lei, with a Mogu face.
Obviously, he was the guardian of the Vale of Eternal Blossoms created by Lei, and may even be the first Mogu statue.
However, when the owner of this voice saw Lei entering this Purification Hall, he was obviously stunned for half a second.
"Lei! Lei! You're back!"
"I! Am back!"
Norushen, Lei's adjutant, under Lei's command, led the other Mogu to guard this hall, but from the current situation, those slightly weaker Mogu statues have been turned into dust in the tens of thousands of years and no longer exist, leaving only Norushen, this secondary Titan guardian, still guarding here.
However, this Titan guardian was also eroded by Y'shaarj during the guarding process. After all, this Purification Hall and the Heart of Y'shaarj were separated by only one door, and it was probably difficult to avoid being affected.
In fact, Lei noticed something was wrong with Norushen the first time he talked to him.
As a secondary Titan guardian, Norushen's level and authority were the same as Alanna and Alcavon, but as Titan creations, they followed a procedural form.
But obviously, Norushen had developed self-emotions, he had been corrupted.
Lei immediately asked Norushen to perform self-examination and self-purge emotions.
A burst of white purification light enveloped Norushen, this thing was the main function of this hall, just like the disinfection process before entering the operating room.
The result of the test was self-evident, clusters of small Sha demon aggregates like ink emerged from Norushen's body, and then rushed towards Lei and Galen like octopuses with their claws and teeth, trying to infect more people.
"Humph!"
A cold snort exploded like thunder, and those Sha demon aggregates were instantly swallowed by the blue lightning, turning into a puff of black smoke and disappearing into the air.
"Self-check complete!"
Norushen's voice returned to calm, and there was no longer the emotional fluctuation just now.
"Very good, Norushen, open the gate of the Third Seal Hall!" Lei said, pointing to the bronze door in the depths.
"Yes! Great Guardian!"
Rumble!
The gate that had not been opened for tens of thousands of years opened wide!
Galen and Lei strode into the last hall of this dungeon, while Norushen, as the gatekeeper, guarded the Purification Hall outside as if facing a great enemy.
In the Seal Hall, four Titan Divine Iron chains bound a huge iron box, hanging in the center of the hall, and the periphery of the iron box was constantly tumbling with purple-black energy.
"Just as I expected, the Titan Seal Box has been damaged, and Y'shaarj's will and power have leaked out along the damaged areas."
Lei looked at the seal in mid-air with a solemn expression, while Galen felt the rich Sha energy in the air.
This was the thing that had been trying to erode Lei's will for tens of thousands of years, constantly polluting Pandaria and bringing the suffering of the Sha demons to the creatures of this continent, and constantly calling on the Mantid to attack the Serpent's Spine!
In the original timeline, it was the goblins who dug this thing out from the underground of the Vale of Eternal Blossoms, and then Galen Hellscream personally took the box that sealed the Heart of Y'shaarj.
At the same time, the Pride of Sha absorbed the pride emotions in this chieftain's heart, thus condensing into a physical form.
Feeling the strange aura in this hall, the Heart of Y'shaarj seemed to twitch, and the rich Sha Qi that could drip water spread towards Galen and Lei along the scent.
As a result, after touching Lei's huge body, it was blocked by the blue lightning, and the Sha Qi felt the aura of this old acquaintance, and instantly avoided Lei and rushed towards Galen!
Pride!
The pride in that creature's heart was unparalleled!
Y'shaarj felt that Galen was the most suitable carrier in tens of thousands of years!
Buzz buzz buzz!
A golden shield lit up on Galen's body, and the Sha Qi actually showed signs of melting when it touched the shield!
Is Galen arrogant?
No, it's not arrogance.
It's pride!
Pride that stems from his very being, but this pride comes from the things he has done: saving Stormwind, saving the tauren, saving the high elves, saving the Dark Iron dwarves, saving Lordaeron, strengthening Stromgarde, and rebuilding the Alliance!
Opening up Blackrock Mountain, occupying the Molten Core, subduing the orcs, enslaving the trolls, dominating Draenor, planning in the ancient era, defeating Archimonde, and restarting Ulduar.
Each and every one of these things leads the trend of Azeroth, allowing the world to develop according to his will.
This book is first published on the entire network by 𝕥 𝕨 𝕜 𝕒 𝕟 . 𝕔 𝕠 𝕞
Having done so many great things and changed so many tragedies, Galen is proud.
But knowing who the ultimate enemy is, he is more low-key than anyone else, even cowardly and timid, and can't be arrogant at all.
In addition, what Galen Hellscream did in the original timeline tells him that arrogance will lead to destruction, and he will become the target of public criticism if he is not careful.
Therefore, the word arrogance has nothing to do with the current Galen.
Perhaps when the Engine of Nalak'sha is upgraded again, and the Altar of Kings can collect the spirits of true gods, Galen will be able to let himself go without restraint.
But definitely not now!
A portal appeared in the underground palace, and then golden holy light filled the entire sealing hall.
It was K'ure, De'ori, and Mu'ru, the three naaru, as well as the Golden Dragon triplets who had arrived.
The sha energy that had been permeating the air was suppressed back into the Titan sealing box.
"Everyone, I need you to transport this dangerous item to Highmountain in the Broken Isles."
Galen pointed to the Heart of Y'shaarj and said to the five holy light demigods, "This thing is very dangerous to other creatures, and I need you to transport it safely and secretly."
Onyxia, in her humanoid form, seemed to understand something, and then carefully asked, "Highlord, is this item prepared for our mother?"
Galen nodded.
"That's right, Lady Sinestra is crucial to the success or failure of our next Crusade plan, and this item can greatly enhance her strength."
However, the Black Dragonflight is, after all, the mother of Onyxia and Nefarian, and Galen cannot act recklessly.
"I have made all the preparations. You should understand that if I don't want anyone to die, then they will definitely be able to live in this world!"
"We will follow the Highlord's arrangements!"
Nefarian took the lead in transforming. He had died like this before, and he knew Galen's methods very well.
If they could get their mother to join them, and the price was just to suffer a little and die once, they would be willing to do it ten thousand times over.
When the time comes, everyone will belong to the same camp, and the whole family can be together neatly!
The three naaru tool people applied holy light enchantments to the sealing box, and also put mental protection on the three golden dragons, and then in front of Galen and Lei, they staged a scene of three dragons pulling a coffin!
Truly wonderful.
Galen personally destroyed the Five Sha, and Kaz'tik led the Twelve Heroes to kill the Sha of Fear. In the end, this Sha of Pride was still hidden in the Heart of Y'shaarj.
Shaohao failed to remove the arrogance in his heart. It was the last sin that Shaohao could not get rid of. Under its influence, Shaohao shrouded this land in mist.
Galen was not prepared to do this either. The strongest Old God Y'shaarj had been killed for tens of thousands of years, and the power remaining in this heart was very little. If the Seven Sha were all destroyed, there would not be enough sha energy to amplify the Dragon Mother, so he chose to directly take away the Heart of Y'shaarj.
Now the power of Pandaria is basically lifted, and Galen can go to the Four Celestials to collect his final reward.
Subsequently, after the Black Dragon Mother is done using that thing, this Old God's last connection with Azeroth will be severed. Galen is prepared to have the warlocks of the Twilight's Hammer open a demon portal and then throw it into a world controlled by the Burning Legion.
The remains of Yogg-Saron have been refined by Mu'ru for several years, and the work progress is less than 10%. In addition, the Heart of Y'shaarj is like nuclear wastewater. Putting it in Azeroth is ultimately pollution, and it is time-consuming and laborious to purify it, which is too troublesome.
"Now that things here are settled, Lei, I should leave. Do you want to go back to Ulduar to see your brothers and sisters?"
"No, the road ahead is still long, and there will always be a chance to meet again."
Lei witnessed Galen's plan throughout the entire process. As a new member of the Crusade, he did not express any opinions.
"After all, there is still an Old God lurking in Azeroth. For the sake of your plan, Highlord, I will turn this place into another Titan city."
"But before that, I need to take Norushen to Uldum to recharge, and then bring the Nalak'sha Engine from Kun-Lai Summit back to the Vale of Eternal Blossoms to recast the Guardian army."
"Very good, the war is also coming to an end, and Pandaria is about to usher in peace."
Galen was very satisfied. This Vale of Eternal Blossoms is mine, Galen's!
The Titan city of Ulduar is in the cold Arctic, and it is not suitable for vacation.
Pandaria is beautiful and rich, and the Vale of Eternal Blossoms is like spring all year round. The Shrine of Seven Stars and the Shrine of Two Moons are magnificent and are the best places for parent-child vacations.
After Galen came out of the underground palace, he flew to the highest point of the Mogu'shan Palace, sitting on the golden glazed tiles overlooking the entire Vale of Eternal Blossoms.
I wanted to write a poem to give to this valley, but unfortunately I have no culture, so I can only say, "Damn, it's so beautiful."
Suddenly, Galen saw a group of high elves quietly sneaking into the towering steps and entering the Mogu'shan Palace.
And among that group of high elf rangers, there happened to be a familiar figure!
Vereesa?
What are they doing here?
With this doubt, Galen jumped down from the glazed tile roof and quietly followed them into the palace.
… … … … … … … … … … … … … …
The Mogu'shan Palace is a large palace complex built on a mountain, and its scale is no less than that of a city.
Vereesa and the rangers also underestimated the complexity of this palace. The area they can explore seems to be only the tip of the iceberg of this underground palace.
Not only that, there are also many Mogu soldiers patrolling the palace. Fortunately, they are not strong and there are not many of them. Vereesa and the others easily wiped out several patrol teams and completed a silent infiltration.
"No wonder the elders of the Golden Lotus do not settle the refugees in this ready-made palace. It turns out that it is too big here. If the Mogu secretly enter from other secret passages, those refugees may be in trouble!" In the ranger team, Elshia whispered to Vereesa.
"This is, after all, the palace of the Mogu. In order to build them, countless corpses of the pandaren ancestors were buried here. If it were other races, they might have burned it clean after the uprising."
Vereesa has been studying a lot of Pandaria's history recently and knows a lot of things.
"They are broad-minded enough to keep the Mogu statues and palace complex. Do they have to live in it?"
"That's true. Also, the space here is too big. The decorations are even more magnificent than the Sunstrider royal court, it's dazzling!" The Ranger Captain muttered.
"Pfft!"
Vereesa couldn't help but laugh: "Why are you talking about the royal court? It was built by our ancestors, and King Kael'thas has no reason to change them."
Since Kael'thas ascended the throne, he has been rectifying the extravagant atmosphere in Silvermoon City. Although the Scourge invasion and the King's sacrifice slowly awakened the High Elf citizens, the remaining stubborn factions have been secretly resisting.
Because of this situation within the country, Ael'ciya felt moved.
Vereesa quite admired this. Ael'ciya not only had good talent, but also was cheerful and decisive, daring to speak and act. She once had the idea of matching her with her younger brother.
It's just that the three sisters haven't reached a unified opinion on this matter yet. After all, her second sister prefers her former subordinate, a young ranger named Velonara.
"Shh! Silence!"
Vereesa sensed a slight movement ahead. Although it was far away, she still issued a warning out of caution.
Just behind the passage less than a hundred meters in front of the rangers, was a wide hall. At this moment, thousands of Mogu were surrounding the central martial arts arena, listening to the current Mogu Emperor's speech.
"Your Majesty, the loyal Gorsang clan has been assembled and is now preparing to set off in the Valley of the Four Winds. As long as you give the order, our clan will seize this valley for you and restore the glory of the Mogu Empire!"
A loud voice reached Vereesa's ears. She quietly used Eagle Eye to observe and found that this Mogu who was expressing his loyalty was very tall, and two stone quilen were squatting beside him.
"Your Majesty, the Hasak clan has also awakened a large number of warriors in the Mogu'shan Vaults. We will always be loyal to you!"
"Your Majesty! The elite warriors of the Kergsi clan have sharpened their blades and are ready to offer you the heads of their enemies!"
After the first Mogu clan chief spoke, two more clan chiefs stepped forward, not wanting to be outdone. From the confrontational words of these three chiefs, it could be heard that the relationship between their clans was not harmonious.
Galen also flashed into the hall at this moment, hiding under a huge red rafter, quietly watching these Mogu.
The current Mogu Emperor, Xin the Weaponmaster, bears the title 'Weaponmaster'.
Hai-yan, the master of the Kergsi clan, specializes in war formation fighting.
Ku'ai, the master of the Gorsang clan, is extremely good at beast control.
And Ming-gu-zi, the master of the Hasak clan, inherited a large number of Mogu spells, and is good at using shadow and ancient Titan creation magic.
In addition to the three major clans in formation, there are also a dozen or so Mogu with smaller numbers. They should be Mogu clans with slightly weaker strength.
To be honest, these contemporary remnants of the Mogu clan are really weak.
Without Lei Shen using the Engine of Nalak'sha to reverse the Curse of Flesh, their Curse of Flesh has gradually deteriorated over thousands of years, and they are not far from complete fleshification.
Although the current Mogu regime still calls itself an empire, in reality, they can't even be considered a proper dynasty. They can only be regarded as warlord forces, nominally listening to the strongest Xin, but in reality, no one is convinced by anyone.
"Very good, I am very satisfied with your loyalty. Now Pandaria has fallen into chaos again. Mantid, Sha, and even the tyrant Lei Shen from ten thousand years ago has been resurrected by his remnants."
Weaponmaster Xin's tone was very impassioned. This once-in-a-lifetime opportunity made him see the possibility of realizing his ambitions!
The rangers who were eavesdropping were stunned. The Alliance had already entered the field, and these Mogu still wanted to turn the world upside down?
Hadn't they experienced despair?
It was just that the rangers' slight movements aroused the vigilance of the two quilen of the Gorsang clan chief, and they immediately issued a warning!
Immediately, Ming-gu-zi, the master of the Hasak clan who was good at using shadow magic, immediately cast a detection spell towards the gate of the hall. The rangers immediately appeared from their disguised state!
This situation directly enraged Weaponmaster Xin!
It was too embarrassing. When the contemporary Mogu Empire was holding the highest meeting, a group of outsiders actually sneaked into the meeting hall!
"A bunch of trash!"
Xin looked angry!
"You swore allegiance, but you can't even drive these inferior races out of my palace. Make up for your mistakes, and purge these invaders. Whichever tribe can make the first contribution will be favored by me!"
After the Weaponmaster finished speaking, he flicked the robe on his body, and then led his guards, striding towards the depths of the palace!
A group of Mogu soldiers also poured out of the passage behind, blocking the passage. Thousands of Mogu in the palace stared at Vereesa and the others.
The rangers were facing a formidable enemy, but Vereesa was not afraid. The space where they were was narrow, and the Mogu soldiers behind were not to be feared, as long as her two legendary soul beasts held the passage in front!
If it really didn't work, Windrunner Little Sister still had life-saving magic items!
Return scroll!
The Silvermoon royal court regarded those scrolls as treasures to study, but they didn't know that the Windrunner family had one for everyone long ago!
However, the expected siege did not appear. Instead, the Mogu in the hall started arguing with each other after Weaponmaster Xin left.
The chief of the Hasak clan, the resourceful Ming-gu-zi, took the lead and said: "Only the dogs of the Gorsang clan would blame others for their failures. You Gorsang clan are the most insane, you must have done it!"
Faced with the outrageous remarks of the Hasak clan chief, the Gorsang clan chief, Wu'ai-ke, retorted unconvincedly: "This is a carefully planned coup! We are not stupid either. Obviously, you clans are colluding with each other. For the glory of the King, we will destroy you!"
Both clan chiefs had spoken, and the last chief, Hai-yan, was unwilling to be outdone: "The Hasak clan is right, only the Gorsang clan would ask inferior races to help. You must be traitors! We, the Kergsi clan, will let you know why only the strong are worthy of staying by our King's side."
"That's right! The Hasak clan will prove to everyone that we are the purest-blooded Mogu, and our clan is the real clan. No intruder can change this!"
Vereesa was speechless. We are still here, why don't you fight and start infighting instead?
You still want to dominate Pandaria like this?
Do you think the monks of the Shado-Pan are made of clay?
You are simply looking to die!
