Upon hearing these ancient secrets, Wrathion felt disdain for the actions of the so-called Titan Watcher, Odyn.
Moreover, through a series of investigations, the Black Dragon Prince also noticed the storm dragon Thrymjaris's dissatisfaction with Odyn.
Because Odyn had intercepted too much Titan power, the Thorignir brood created by Thrymjaris was far inferior to the chromatic dragons. Although they had also escaped the category of beasts and were considered intelligent races, they did not have the ability to transform into human form.
After Odyn was sealed in the Halls of Valor by his adopted daughter and unable to appear, Thrymjaris led the Thorignir dragon brood she had created away from the vicinity of the Halls of Valor, re-establishing their dragon nests in the mountains south of Stormheim.
Not only that, but this Thorignir Dragon Mother also named the peak where she resided Thorim Peak.
Who was Thorim?
He was the Storm Lord, a Titan Watcher created by Khaz'goroth, who also controlled the power of storms and lightning. The Thorignir dragonflight would rather believe in Thorim than live under Odyn's jurisdiction, which shows the Dragon Mother's resentment and dissatisfaction with Odyn.
However, this time, Wrathion and Malyzion's target was not the Thorignir dragons living on Thorim Peak, but a group of Storm Drakes living in the mountains of Nastrondir in northern Stormheim.
These Storm Drakes were the offspring of a storm dragon named Nithogg.
Nithogg was once a member of the Thorignir dragonflight. Ambitious, he believed that one day he would become even more powerful than the Titan Watchers. Therefore, he led his offspring away from the Thorignir dragonflight and settled in the mountains of Nastrondir to breed.
As the saying goes, pick the soft persimmon. Although Thrymjaris did not fully receive the Titan power, she was not someone Wrathion and Malyzion could deal with. Therefore, they could only capture the weaker Storm Drakes as test subjects to create Twilight Dragons.
The plan proceeded smoothly, and squeezing the soft persimmon was very satisfying. At most, Nithogg was just a legendary high-level storm dragon. Under the siege of the adult brute Malyzion and the Black Dragon Prince, he was quickly defeated and tied up.
In addition to Nithogg, the leader of the dragonflight, they also captured dozens of adult Storm Drakes and hundreds of Storm Drake hatchlings, as well as countless Storm Drake eggs.
These were all Nithogg's offspring… Although the adult Storm Drakes were not even as strong as the chromatic dragon whelps, the number surprised Wrathion.
After all, the more powerful a creature is, the more it is troubled by the difficulty of producing offspring.
To say nothing else, if the surviving Malygos could breed like Nithogg, the Blue Dragonflight would have long since restored its numbers from the ancient times…
Casting aside these messy thoughts, Wrathion urged Malyzion to quickly take advantage of the night to transport this group of captured lesser dragons back to Highmountain.
The unfortunate Nithogg and his offspring mysteriously disappeared in the mountains of Nastrondir. When he woke up again, he was in darkness.
Nithogg felt himself trapped in a dark and damp prison!
He was trapped!
He did not know what the black dragons who had captured him wanted to do.
The storm dragon racked his brains, recalling his past. Although he usually committed evil deeds near his habitat, he had not provoked the crazy black dragons, had he?
Why!
Why capture him!
Not only did they capture him, but they also wiped out all of his offspring!
He wanted to roar, he wanted to vent the depression in his heart, but he could not make a sound. There was no sound in this prison at all. The silence was driving him crazy. He needed freedom, he wanted to escape…
He did not know how long had passed when a dazzling light shone into the dark prison from the outside world, and then a huge force came, pulling him out of the prison.
Leaving the cage, the storm dragon immediately stretched out his gorgeous and shiny wings. The huge body occupied most of the space outside the cage. His crystal-like huge horns stood like jagged teeth on his spine and head, and his body was streamlined and smooth.
This was a blue dragon full of beauty.
Nithogg quickly scanned the cave he was in and soon discovered the previously captured humanoid Wrathion and a human female!
"Despicable black dragon! How dare you turn Nithogg into a pet in a cage?"
As Nithogg roared loudly, blue energy condensed into a lightning spark on his body, and strong electricity shot out from his claws.
The target of the lightning was the young human form of Wrathion. He had discovered in the previous duel that this black dragon was still very young and his strength was far inferior to his, but his disgusting earth magic had been restricting his actions, causing him to be beaten up by another black dragon!
Bang!
The lightning was deflected by a purplish-black energy and deviated from its direction, hitting the stone wall of the cave, causing rocks and soil to scatter in all directions.
"Despicable black dragon! Nithogg will crush you!"
The storm dragon gathered more energy, and dark blue energy intertwined on his dragon claws again, and then formed lightning and shot towards Wrathion again!
"Courting death!"
The human woman who had been silent for a long time made a cold voice.
Chains of energy containing chaotic power suddenly burst out of the ground and tightly entangled Nithogg's limbs and wings, and quickly tightened to imprison him firmly on the ground.
The magic chains tightly bound the storm dragon and cut deeply into his body. Nithogg let out a painful roar, trying to open his mouth to bite off these magic chains, but he felt that his teeth were like hitting solid steel, almost breaking his fangs!
"Let me go!"
The storm dragon roared, making screams mixed with anger and pain, but the magic chains continued to tighten, each deeply cutting into his body. At the same time, the power of the void burned and corrupted his dragon scales, causing his body to endure severe pain again.
Soon, the storm dragon stopped struggling. He had realized that the hooded human woman was an extremely powerful being.
This was a pale woman with a smooth and jade-like face. She was wearing a close-fitting night-colored dress, and long black hair fell on the woman's shoulders.
Behind her graceful body, there was a seven-eyed, goat-horned, black-purple energy creature shaking. Its power formed the chains that trapped the storm dragon.
This strange creature was not the most terrifying. The most terrifying thing was the endless chill emanating from the woman's eyes. Under her gaze, Nithogg's huge body shivered.
The mastermind behind commanding the black dragon!
The storm dragon vaguely guessed the identity of this woman: Black Dragon Aspect Sinestra!
"Accept your fate, spawn of Thrymjaris, and become the sincerity I offer to the Twilight's Hammer!"
Sinestra, clad in black, announced Netherspite's fate, then extended her left hand towards the imprisoned storm dragon, unleashing a potent surge of shadow energy that struck Netherspite.
A piercing hum echoed through the cavern as the blue storm energies within the storm dragon were twisted into black-purple void energies by Sinestra's spell.
As his body was gradually corrupted, violet tendrils of energy writhed across Netherspite, the intense agony causing the bound dragon to groan, his cries resonating throughout the cave.
In the original timeline, the black dragon eggs Deathwing brought to the shattered Outland mutated due to prolonged exposure to the chaotic energies of the Twisting Nether, birthing a new dragon species: the void dragon.
Sinestra used void dragon eggs to begin her own experiments, eventually successfully finding a way to combine black dragon essence with void dragon essence, and injecting it into her own dragon eggs, ultimately hatching a completely new dragon species: the twilight dragon.
Compared to other dragon species, the strength of these twilight dragons was not weak; they also possessed the ability to create unique twilight realm spaces, capable of frantically absorbing energy from the outside world to promote their own growth. With enough energy to absorb, a twilight dragon could mature from hatching to adulthood in just a few months, or even weeks.
Ordinary dragons, on the other hand, required hundreds or even thousands of years to mature from hatching. Twilight dragons were veritable war machines by nature.
However, this new dragon species was inherently greedy, its wickedness even surpassing that of the corrupted black dragons. The black dragon queen, Sinestra, was killed by the twilight dragons she created, a victim of her own creation.
Later, the remaining twilight dragon eggs and modification technology were acquired by Deathwing, who, with the aid of the Old Gods, refined the twilight dragon technology, simplifying the corruption process into a corrupting force. Any dragon egg, regardless of species, could be quickly hatched into an evil twilight dragon if infected.
Moreover, these twilight dragons were mindless, obeying only Deathwing's commands. Even other dragons, heavily tainted by this evil power, found it difficult to escape their corrupted fate.
In this timeline, Draenor did not explode and had a complete atmosphere for protection, so the void dragon species was never born. Galen tightly controlled the Dark Portal, treating Draenor as his own backyard, and the black dragon mother never had the opportunity to reach this planet.
However, capable of birthing Nefarian, a dragon naturally gifted in scientific research, Sinestra was also not weak in terms of biological modification. She directly devoured the remains of Yogg-Saron and C'Thun brought by Cho'gall.
This step was not only to strengthen herself with the chaotic power of the remains, but also a pledge of allegiance, to tell the Twilight's Hammer that 'we are now one of you'.
However, C'Thun and Yogg-Saron were already dead after all, and the Old God power remaining on their eyeballs and tentacles was not enough to complete the ultimate twilight dragon technology.
Just then, the Heart of Y'shaarj arrived, and Sinestra directly cooperated with the resurrected will of Y'shaarj, and allowed the Sha of Pride to possess her!
For the future of the black dragonflight promised by Galen, and for Nefarian and Onyxia who had been freed from the curse, she was ruthless to herself, directly transforming herself into the first twilight dragon!
It must be said that Sinestra is a ruthless… ruthless dragon!
The transformation continued, but Sinestra was not satisfied with this speed. Her right hand also rose, and black-purple energy tendrils, guided by her, shot towards the edge of the cave.
The glow of energy illuminated the originally dark cave. Hundreds of storm dragon eggs were placed in the corner, and Sinestra's power directly contaminated those dragon eggs!
Netherspite's heart broke. Those were all his children… The storm dragon was disheartened, his ambition to surpass the Titan watchers shattered, and his struggle became weaker and weaker, his entire body turning purple like twilight.
The storm dragon was completely corrupted!
And the chaotic energy contamination continued. An eerie energy storm erupted in the giant cave, the storm dragon eggs trembling in the energy storm, a constant stream of energy injected into the dragon eggs, causing them to rapidly swell to twice their original size, a purple halo reflected on the eggshells.
As more and more chaotic energy was injected into the rapidly expanding dragon eggs, they had long exceeded the volume they should have…
Wrathion almost thought these eggs were about to explode!
Crack!
Suddenly, cracks appeared on those eggshells.
These dragon eggs were hatching.
Seeing this scene, Sinestra stopped the energy in her hands. Her black curly hair scattered, and the veil on her face flew up like a banner, clearly revealing her fair face.
"I succeeded…"
Sinestra murmured, not knowing whether she was talking to herself or telling Wrathion.
"Good… my children…"
Sinestra murmured almost like a mother: "Good… come to me…"
Dense cracks appeared on those eggshells. Finally, the eggshell of the first dragon egg peeled off, and inside the dragon egg, an eye was peering out…
An eye that had never existed in this world.
Although this eye had just seen this world, it was already full of cunning, full of evil… all of which was much older than the eye itself.
Sinestra looked at Netherspite, who was crawling on the ground.
"Netherspite… no, you are no longer the storm dragon Netherspite. You are now the first twilight dragon general under my command. From now on, you will be called Drahga'nox!"
Hearing Sinestra's words, Wrathion's whole body shook!
In the dragon language, Drahga'nox means the devourer of all things, which shows the dragon queen's expectations for this twilight dragon.
For a time, Wrathion's heart was filled with mixed feelings, not knowing whether it was loss or jealousy…
"Drahga'nox, quickly go to the other caves to transform your adult offspring, and then go out and capture prey to feed these children!"
"As you command, great Twilight Queen!"
The newborn Drahga'nox flapped his purple wings and went to carry out the queen's orders.
"Dragon Queen… these whelps…"
After Drahga'nox left, Wrathion looked at the twilight whelps that had hatched, his face full of fear, as if he had seen a natural enemy!
