(Additional update for brother "Huo Zhengtinghao" [7/10])
Dick was confused by this scolding.
The other party's emotions were agitated and filled with strong indignation. The pressure of that emotion on the spiritual connection was so fatal that Vigilant was almost crushed on the spot.
Even if what he is facing is not the complete will of Star Soul, but just a "node" formed by the convergence of more than 30,000 fragments, the pressure from the spirit is definitely not something that a legend can withstand.
But the good news is that the opponent still maintained his sanity. When Diakum was about to suffer the disaster of becoming a "brain-dead player", he took back his power one step ahead.
But the bad news is, Dick feels His resistance.
His own spirit is being pushed out of this realm, and the other party obviously does not intend to talk more with the "Forsworn" in his eyes.
It was at this moment that Dick reacted.
"Argus!?"
Vigilant shouted at the spiritual level:
"You gave birth to wisdom? Is it you? Argus? Answer me!"
No response.
But Vigilant can still feel that the connection between his spirit and this field is quickly disappearing. If he doesn't think of a way, he will lose this precious communication opportunity.
The previous scolding also made him understand why Star Soul Fragment suddenly merged and why it became uncontrollable and could no longer be passed on.
This is spiritual contact and connection. Star Soul Fragment wants Dick to see his anger and loss, so pictures flash past Diakum's eyes like a revolving lantern.
He saw a wife who had lost her husband screaming at the commander who was in mourning.
In extreme pain, a Argus Heart Pendant that had been cleaned but still had the smell of blood was thrown to the ground amidst the screams of the widow.
Vigilant saw a new recruit who had just experienced the war, leaning tiredly in the medical room.
The child's dull eyes reflected a broken soul. After putting the war-scarred ring to his lips and kissing it, he ended his just-started life with a bullet.
Saint saw a group of young people born in exile slowly growing up.
When the seniors described the scenery of Argus's hometown and the tragic decisive battle, they joked and showed disapproving smiles, thinking that the sacrifices of their fathers were adventure stories that only existed in legends, and after the birth of their children, they relayed the history that no one seemed to care about in the same careless manner.
Diakum saw Genedar fall.
In the midst of the panic, Draenei were everywhere rescuing the wounded from the flames of the crashed spaceship, risking their lives to bring those precious things out of the fire scene, but only the box of Argus Heart covered with battle scars was left out. It was not until a long time later that a lame veteran rushed in and took it into his arms as a precious thing.
Finally, he saw Othaar ascending to the position of archbishop in glory.
He saw the great traitor promoting his extreme ideas on different occasions and spreading secret scrolls filled with blasphemies everywhere.
He saw that bastard confuse right and wrong and call the fall of Argus "the inevitable fate", and those bewitched young people gathered around him, and loudly declared that Draenor was their hometown of the One under the contemptuous gaze of the veterans, and they were proud of it.
The picture stopped at this moment.
The image of Othaar continued to change, and finally settled on one of those young people who grew up in the safe Genedar spacecraft, who regarded the bloody history as a joke, the persistence of their parents as stubbornness, and the lofty oath as a joke.
The emergence of Othaar is not the budding moment of separatism. When this cowardly traitor without any conviction ascends to a high position, it means that some people's betrayal of the past has been completed!
Star Soul Disappointed by this.
Argus is angry because of this.
He had every reason to feel these sorrows.
So He began to take back the Star Soul Fragment of those dead Draenei individuals, and no longer intended to give them out again, because from what he saw and heard, He had determined that Draenei had betrayed the former World Vow.
He tried his best to send Eredar, whom he regarded as a child, to take refuge in the sea of stars. He almost exhausted himself to death in order to do all this, but they betrayed Him!
After twenty-five thousand years of exile, Eredar has lost the nobility of his soul.
They are no longer trustworthy.
At least Draenei's performance over the past two hundred years is no longer worthy of His trust.
These scenes and processes that Diakum has repeatedly seen are completely consistent with the external changes of Star Soul Fragment described by Maladaar! It is like the extremely disappointed Star Soul is sternly questioning the first Hand of Argus who made a contract with him:
Does Eredar still remember the vows he made to his hometown? Does Draenei still want to embark on the road back home?
Dick feels the disappointment of Star Soul.
He also understood the reason for the anger of the "Forsworn" just now.
But now he must first appease the furious Argus, even if there is only a fragment of his hometown Star Soul here.
"I found Azeroth! I found your sister."
When he was about to be completely expelled from this field, Dick used his last chance to shout to the angry and silent Star Soul Fragment:
"In this world, at the appointed time, the door will open, which will lead us into the same world as you! Burning Legion, who is torturing you, has also set his sights on Him. The demons were defeated there ten thousand years ago, and your sister won.
He is still persisting, and so are we."
"You. If you don't persist in escaping betrayal, you are no longer. Son of Argus."
This is the response of the ray of consciousness carried by this ball of Star Soul Fragment to Dick.
It's like the response of a frustrated person who has expectations for others, but only gets disappointment in the end.
He even said the words "severing ties" and "expelling his ancestral home", which shows that Star Soul Fragment's disappointment in the Draenei Clan has penetrated into his bones.
"Oh? Really? Do you really think so?"
Dick was not angry, angry, or desperate. He asked:
"Then please tell me, why do you want to protect the souls of those warriors who died in battle holding Argus Heart? Maladaar said they were trapped, but I could see at a glance that this was not the case.
They are guarding you!
Just like those ancient elements in Krokuun's Holy Land are defending your Holy Stone, you also gave them blessings so that they can not be captured by death. These warriors recognized by you are all Draenei that you despise.
Old Velen likes to say a sentence, which is the best way to summarize the current situation.
Argus, please believe me, not all wanderers have lost themselves!
Even in the years when the damn traitor Othaar acted perversely, there are still enough passionate Warriors who remember World Vow, and they are still proud to get a Argus Heart as a supreme commendation and a glorious medal!
Hand of Argus Legion is still there, and so am I!
We never gave up our vows and our salvation."
Vigilant felt that the force that pushed him out of this realm of thinking was weakening. He sighed and said:
"The fragments of your will are blended with the spirit of Eredar. My people have spent their entire lives and even their own lives protecting you from being captured by the Burning Legion. When you recycle those soul fragments, it means that you have experienced the life of Draenei as a "spectator" again and again.
In the constant return of fragments, you can also observe the growth and ending of mortals from those experiences.
I guess that's where your wisdom comes from.
We have not betrayed the World Vow, Argus we made with you. If you recycle the Star Soul Fragment in Othaar, you should know that I have been working non-stop to reverse those bad habits and cowardly thoughts after I woke up.
I have never forgotten that oath, and you should be able to feel that I am not deceiving.
My people have lost their spaceship, and we can no longer take you to exile in the star sea, but the demons have noticed this place, so I plan to fight them again in this world.
Not just because I know this is my the One way of protecting my people, but also because I know this is my the One way of protecting you.
We must win this war to ensure that you are not brought back to Argus and thrown into the corrupting calcination of the fire of Sargeras, as Draenei has been doing for more than 20,000 years.
Our escape is never just for our own survival.
You shouldn't judge all of us so arbitrarily because of those insects jumping up and down. There are still Warrior who are as brave as before and are willing to sacrifice for you, and there are still passionate guardians who are willing to Consecration everything for you.
You are always with us."
"You you're not. they they're not you."
The anger in the next response dissipated somewhat, but the depression and loss were still abundant.
The repulsive force that pushed Dick out of the field completely disappeared. As his spiritual body walked forward, he once again approached the bright "World Light".
He said:
"But I believe that the reason that prompted you to make this "fragment return" move is not just the wrong choices of some Draenei, but also external factors. I guess, something happened over there Argus?"
"See for yourself!"
With this response, the World Light in front of Dick beat and wrapped his spirit, allowing Vigilant's thoughts to cross the long sea of stars with the help of Star Soul's power at this moment, allowing him to return to his distant hometown in an instant.
Under the world that has been completely transformed by Fel, in the core of the planet, dark green Fel magma is flowing around a sleeping "giant".
Under the gaze of Dick, the blue giant slept in the heart of the planet in an attitude between "virtual and real".
That is the supreme divine body of Titan in Material World, but it has not yet been forged. Fel power overflowing from all over the world is constantly poured into his body, making this gathering of great power closer to reality every minute and every second.
"This is the Fel divine body that Sargeras prepared for you."
Dick looked at Him and said:
"The Life Force extracted from the entire Argus world was created with the help of Force infusion, and the way of destroying the seedlings allowed you to complete the path that originally took millions of years to complete in 25,000 years.
But it's just a shell."
"No"
Star Soul Fragment weakly denied it, and then wrapped Dick's mind to "sneak" into the divine body that had not yet completed the magic casting.
The moment it penetrated, it was as if Diakum was thrown into the scorching magma hell, causing his spiritual body to endure seemingly endless forging and tearing at this moment. This was while Star Soul Fragment was protecting his mind.
If Dick's own spirit enters it, it will be torn to pieces and annihilated.
He knew that Star Soul Fragment wanted to show him something crucial, so he endured the burning pain and followed His guidance, but the deeper he went into the body of God, the clearer the corrupt words lingering in his ears became.
Don't think that Void Force is the only one who can play mind-destroying tricks.
The high-ranking demons born in Twisting Nether are equally familiar with these evil methods of seducing souls. Of course, compared to the corrupt and silent "technical flow" of Void Force, the corruption seduced by Fel is often mixed with a lot of rough Fel pollution and infusion.
It is basically equivalent to the difference between the southern brainwashing and northern fist-fighting MLM models.
Dick discerned that those corrupt words must come from the legendary Destroyer Witch Coven. Under this harmless name are the four most outstanding fallen witch masters born in Twisting Nether. They are elite soldiers directly affiliated with Dark Titan, and are responsible for torturing and corrupting those valuable souls.
Seducing Star Soul into corruption is naturally the biggest challenge they can get.
"Have you endured this suffering for twenty-five thousand years?"
Dick sighed and said:
"No wonder you are so angry. You feel that your long-term persistence and almost life-saving efforts have raised a group of white-eyed wolves. If I were you, I would feel worthless. But is it possible that this self-destructive mentality comes from the guidance of these degenerate words?
You've been affected, there's no doubt about it."
Star Soul Fragment remained silent as He continued to wrap Dick forward.
Perhaps because he wanted "Hand of Argus" whom he recognized to truly experience what he had experienced every day for more than 20,000 years, he also deliberately took a detour to let Dick better "view" the "hell playground package" arranged by Dark Titan for his baby Star Soul.
Until the end of this veritable hellscape, when they reached the spiritual boundary of Argus's divine body, Dick finally saw what Argus wanted to show him.
Another Star Soul!
No, that's not accurate.
That was the part that remained after Argus split the will of Star Soul, but it was infused with the purest Fel Force by Sargeras himself, in order to nourish this weak Star Soul Fragment and continue to absorb and strengthen it.
Today, the remnant of Star Soul, which once had only one breath left, has grown into a green and red Fel Lord.
The originally bright and bright World Light also became anxious and brutal. The red stream of light wrapped around its demonized spirit, as if it was covered with a set of ferocious armor of destruction.
His name is also "Argus".
But Dick can be sure that this thing is definitely not the same thing as the Star Soul Fragment next to him!
"I also felt it when He was born. He must return to gather together or else he cannot be resisted."
The latest ⊥ little ⊥ talk ⊥ is first posted on ⊥⊥⊥!
Next to Dick, Star Soul Fragment explained to him in an intermittent manner:
"I and Him are one and the same. He is strong and I am weak but as long as I persist. He cannot wake up. But I can't be trapped for too long! Polluter evil demon. Kill Eredar, capture the fragments, fall, infuse, swallow and strengthen. He wakes up, and I am dead.
You are homeless."
"You gathered all the will fragments together to suppress the resurrection of Will of Destruction of "Extinguisher"? Yes, although you are weak in terms of absolute power, you are the orthodox only in terms of the will of Star Soul.
He is just the "inner demon" infused and shaped by Fel in your shadow.
As long as you don't admit defeat, He can't take you away.
Even though Sargeras prepared a body for Him, Dark Titan could not directly help Him win this "battle of wills."
This is a war between you and yourself."
Dick gave a thumbs up and praised Star Soul Fragment beside him:
"That's awesome!"
"Don't brag! Find a way. Hurry!"
Star Soul obviously does not need Dick to incarnate as "Eredar boaster" to provide him with emotional value at this critical moment.
He is really panicked now.
Especially with the wisdom gathered from countless lives of Draenei that comes with Star Soul Fragment's return, he is no longer the frightened baby he once was.
If He knows how to think, He can better understand the current crisis.
"The solution is Azeroth."
Dick said seriously:
"Draenei and even now Eredar simply do not have the power to fight Burning Legion head-on and take back their hometown, but Azeroth has such power, and they have defeated Burning Legion can continue to develop for ten thousand years, so as long as you get the help of that world, as long as you get the help of your powerful sister, plus Army of the Light and the Eredar clan currently scattered throughout the star sea, then a counterattack will become possible!
Sarkir once asked me that question. He asked me that I would always face Sargeras at the end of all my actions. He was curious about what kind of solution I could come up with.
I can't figure it out now.
But I believe that a salvation can be found in Azeroth.
If we can't find a way to rescue you there, then we can only welcome the tragedy of reaching the end. However, even if that day comes, I will definitely come back here with the most powerful group of people I can find!
I will bring back all the fragments you sent away. At that time, you will face Extinguisher on the spiritual battlefield, and we will fight against this tyrant in Material World.
Even if you die, die with honor."
As he said this, he stepped forward in his spiritual body to take a closer look at the sleeping "Annihilator Argus". However, as soon as he took a few steps forward, he saw the huge destruction in front of him. Star Soul's closed eyes suddenly opened.
She looked at him condescendingly with blood-red pupils. At the mere moment of eye contact, Dick's spirit was shattered at this moment.
He covered his head and groaned, and knelt down in front of the holy lamp of Auchindoun Holy Site. Then he stretched out his trembling hand to grab the holy lamp to stand up, and wiped the blood that overflowed from his nostrils.
Good guy.
That glance just now shattered my spirit.
I even saw the familiar scenery of the Maw in a trance. Fortunately, I was not there.
He gasped to calm his breathing, then raised his head and looked at the still entangled World Light above his head, and said:
"You haven't created such fragment nodes elsewhere, have you?"
"No. They are fighting. Holy Light leads and protects them. The fragment is safe."
The node of Star Soul's will answered like this, which made Dick feel at ease. It seems that the situation in other Eredar's star sea worlds is much more stable than that of Draenor.
"Then can you share what I just saw with others?"
Dick leaned on the holy lamp, stroking the Argus Heart piled on it.
He whispered:
"What I mean is, show it to every Draenei holding Argus Heart in the current Draenor world, let them know that you are always by our side, let them know that their hometown has never been far away from them, and let them realize that our connection with you has never been cut off by time and space.
In fact, you should have done this a long time ago.
If we are your children, and if you expect us to take the right path, then you cannot wait until a big mistake has been made before abandoning us. You should give us a few blows when the signs of bad things appear.
This is the correct way to guide and educate children.
Let them see it, Argus.
I'll wait here.
I am waiting here with you for the answers to your questions from those holding Argus Heart. If most people have forgotten World Vow, then I will take you out of this world now and go to Azeroth to find a way to save the world.
But if they still remember their promise.
Then I hope you can give us another chance, the last chance for us to prove that Draenei is never cowardly.
We will defeat Burning Legion here, defeat Polluter and its minions, and dedicate this victory to you as a clarion call to sound the road home."
"They. Not you."
Argus repeated what he said before, but Diakum shook his head and said:
"They are indeed not me, but they have the opportunity to become a better me. I am as confident in my people as my children. If they fail to surpass me, it only means that I have not led them well.
Let them see it.
Let them experience for themselves what their hometown has suffered in the past 20,000 years, let them realize that you have never given up in the face of evil provocations, and let them share your glory and your courage.
The war is about to begin!
We need this encouragement, and so does the world."
Star Soul Fragment's node hesitated for a moment, and then he said:
"The fragments are fused. They cannot be divided anymore. There must be a carrier. You! As a carrier, it will affect you."
"I already have a part of Naaru in me, so carrying another part of Star Soul's thinking shouldn't be a big problem."
Dick waved his hands and said:
"As long as you think I can support this burden, then I am willing to incarnate into your eyes and your hands, and become your spokesperson to meet your ancient sisters and seek the wisdom of A-chan. But before we set off, we have to make sure that your children are still brave.
Are you worried about getting a bad answer?
Don't you have confidence in your children?
During the twenty-five thousand years of your suffering, Draenei did not enjoy happiness every day."
He put those Argus Heart in his hands and stroked them. Each battle scar on them represented a thrilling battle, and the warrior souls standing around him also stretched out their hands at this moment.
The first hand was placed on Diakum's shoulder, patting him encouragingly, then the second hand, and the third hand.
The palms of those spirit beings quickly overlapped and finally formed a substantial encouragement, which made Diakum turn around and nodded to the warriors behind him.
In this silent conversation, he said:
"Leave it to me, everyone! I will protect Him, and I will protect them, and the artifacts you left behind will be handed over to warriors as powerful as you. You have all been watched by Star Soul, and death can no longer take you away. Please continue to bless these children."
He held up the Argus Heart in his hand, and those spirits saluted Vigilant and then merged into it, turning their existence into a part of Argus Heart, just like the "final strengthening" of the artifact.
But the pendants here are obviously not enough for every spirit to live in them, so Dick finally raised his left hand and let the remaining spirits enter his tail ring.
He likes to hang out with warriors.
While he was bidding farewell to these warriors, Argus's Star Soul Day of Will also made a decision that He would ask that question after 25,000 years of silence.
"Buzz"
At this moment, whether it is Archbishop Maladaar guarding outside the secret hall, Lelan waiting in the Audience Hall, or Karabor Temple far away The old Velen who met Kara was still Neri who was conducting a raid at Shadowmoon Valley to arrest Sargerei cultists.
As long as they hold Argus Heart and Draenei in their hands, they will all feel the vibration of the artifact that has been dormant for more than 20,000 years.
This made them feel shocked and happy, but the moment they touched the artifact, their minds were pulled into the mental torture that Diakum had experienced before.
It's still the scenes of swearing recorded by Argus Heart, and it's still the torture of feeling the fire, lava, and the seduction of corrupt words.
Just like Dick suggested.
Star Soul no longer hides his worries and disappointment, he hopes to get a clear answer from Draenei.
Does Eredar still remember the oath he made to his hometown? Does Draenei still want to embark on the road back home? Do the exiles still stick to their noble beliefs? Do the resisters still have the courage to fight to the end?
This is important!
This will directly determine whether Star Soul, who has been disappointed once, can have the courage to give his children a second and last chance.
This is a difficult choice for Star Soul.
His pain was not because some Draenei broke their oaths and failed Him. Such pain was nothing compared to the torture He endured.
He is just sad that He can no longer trust his children who are traveling far away as he used to trust Eredar in Thirty Day War.
For parents, this is real despair.
So, Draenei, will you let Him down for the second time?
