Benign Competition and the Night Elf Great Wall

Time flew by, and the Night Elves, having concluded their epic war, gradually began to regain their former glory, while the central ethnic group's confidence slowly revived.

Sarodar's Tower of Slumber was completed. This magnificent structure was built entirely from precious Titanium and Arcane Fel Iron, its silver-white body inscribed with mysterious energy rune patterns.

What was visible above the sea was merely the tip of the iceberg; deep beneath the ocean, the colossal tower's base connected to an even larger circular structure.

Incredibly devout and fanatical elves were chosen and then stationed in this sacred high tower, where they meditated and cultivated, remaining detached from worldly affairs.

Here, numerous tall Faceless Ones served as mentors and guards, imparting mental and spiritual magic to the Divine Lord's followers and guiding them in improving their use of Arcane energy.

Those extreme fanatics were selected to undergo sublimation in the tower's lower levels, attaining a higher form: the Nightborne.

Their bodies became more slender, their skin shimmering with magical rune patterns like tattoos. Their eyes were entirely composed of Arcane energy, and a ring of Arcane runes floated behind their backs.

The Nightborne formed a fanatical organization within the Tower of Slumber: the Holy Crusaders of Truth.

This organization was independent of the Eye of Truth. The greatest wish of the Crusaders was to die fighting for the Divine Lord, thereby earning the right to ascend to the divine realm and continue existing in a higher form.

The Holy Crusaders of Truth and the Eye of Truth, one in darkness and one in the light. The former was in its nascent stage of development, which is why Boss Hu kept it hidden. The latter had been passed down for countless years, with Suramar City being the domain of the Eye of Truth council.

As the years passed, the Night Elves continued to expand and solidify their territories.

The recent Darkshore and Ashenvale regions had seen the establishment of many small cities and villages, which had completely become the Night Elves' internal preserves.

Felwood Forest also began a period of comprehensive development, establishing friendships with the local Bearman tribes. The Bearmen opened their Mouth of the Maw Fortress to the elves, allowing them to travel conveniently from Felwood Forest directly to their border region of Winterspring Valley, and then to the Azshara region.

Apart from unintelligent creatures like Murlocs, the Night Elves established relationships with the local indigenous populations wherever they went. This also led to the rapid expansion of the Night Elves' territory, with virtually no enemies.

It couldn't be helped; the elves had been born early. The outside world was still wild, with very few civilized intelligent races. Vast tracts of unclaimed land awaited the elves to plant their flags and claim them as their ancestral lands.

The internal religious disputes among the elves were quite intense, but fortunately, they remained within the bounds of healthy competition.

Ashenvale, Moonlight Grove, and Mount Hyjal were naturally the domains of the Druids. The Forest Demi-god Cenarius resided in the forests of the Ashenvale region, while Mount Hyjal and Moonlight Grove served as gathering places and strongholds for the Druids.

Tyrande's Priestess of the Moon and Sentinels took on the roles of local defense and spiritual guidance. The Priestesses were gentle in nature and got along well with all groups and factions. Even the haughty Highborne mages would respectfully address them as "Esteemed Priestess" when they met.

Speaking of the Highborne, their progress was much slower. These esteemed mages were fond of building mage towers in various locations, selecting a few talented apprentices, and then shutting themselves away like recluses, completely detached from worldly affairs.

Ah, drinking happy soda, nestled in a happy tower, nothing else concerns me, it's simply blissful.

The competition for talent among the elven populace between these three factions was quite fierce. In the end, they formed an unwritten rule: whoever reached the target first got them, and once a target was lured onto their side, the other two would back down.

Development and progress, after all, were slowly achieved through debate and compromise.

Boss Hu, who remained secluded in his own world or as a shut-in within the Tower of Slumber, as the supreme emperor of the Night Elves, generally did not interfere in affairs. However, when he did, it was invariably concerning matters of great importance to the entire race.

For instance, this time, the Divine Lord proposed an extremely grand and epic project: the Night Elf Great Wall.

Although Boss Hu was a Titan, the essence of a proper Celestial Empire citizen within him remained.

Stockpile grain, build a great wall, delay claiming kingship, focus on farming... makes perfect sense!

The elves were so astonished by the Divine Lord's project plan that they were speechless for a long time.

According to the specific plans, the completed Night Elf Great Wall would completely enclose all the current territories of the Night Elves, stretching from the easternmost Azshara region to the westernmost Feralas region (bordering the Wailing Caverns where the Tauren resided). It would directly connect into a towering wall across the continent, fully enchanted and reinforced.

Furthermore, the internal regions would also be completely segmented. The wall would encircle various areas, with access only through heavily guarded gates.

Of course, during times of peace, only the border wall gates would be heavily guarded and kept perpetually closed. The gates in the internal regions would naturally be open around the clock, allowing the elves free passage.

This kind of Night Elf Great Wall effectively transformed the Night Elves' land into an immensely vast chain of fortress complexes.

Once war broke out, enemies would face one checkpoint after another; after conquering one city, another would lie ahead.

The elves dared not disobey the Titan Divine Lord's proposal. Moreover, upon detailed analysis, they discovered that this miraculous project indeed possessed extremely strong indigenous defensive capabilities and broad strategic depth.

So... they decided to go all out!

Consequently, numerous elven construction teams and Arcane Golem construction crews were dispatched to the border regions to lay the foundation for the Night Elf Great Wall.

Soon, a long dragon would bisect the Kalimdor continent, with the upper half of the continent falling under the military control of the Night Elves.

Although Boss Hu did not actively manage affairs, he still closely monitored the world's developments.

Especially the Titan facilities located throughout the world, and the Lesser Titan Keepers left behind by the Pantheon within them.

These stubborn, rigid, and orderly to the point of being pedantic old fossils spent their days confined to their respective facilities, unwilling to take a single step out, and completely indifferent to what was happening in the outside world.

In the face of the Burning Legion's massive demon invasion, while the elves, various outsider races, and even the Dragon Aspects fought tooth and nail outside, what were these so-called Keepers doing? They continued to guard their respective Titan facilities, unmoving, as if none of it concerned them.

Therefore, Hu Feng had a very poor impression of these Lesser Titan Keepers. His initial plan to leverage his Titan identity to recruit them had long since faded.

So pedantic, so stubborn, what use were they?

Moreover, as expected, they soon paid a heavy price for it.

The Keepers on the continent of Northrend, located in the far north, inexplicably developed major internal conflicts. A fierce internal struggle erupted within the Titan facility Ulduar.

Keeper Loken, leading the remaining Keepers, launched a deadly pursuit against Tyr, who seemed to have discovered some secret.

Tyr, a Keeper filled with justice, order, and righteousness, was unwilling to retaliate against the attacks of his own kin. He also couldn't defeat the combined assault of so many of his brethren.

So, Tyr fled. He escaped to the Eastern Kingdoms continent.

Boss Hu, located on the continent of Kalimdor, watched all of this with a cold eye, mentally attaching various labels to the participants.

Eventually, they would have to meet, so for now, he would observe what kind of stances and mindsets these Keepers possessed.
