The origin of creatures like insect-men can be said to be that the scum on Old Gods turned into a war weapon, but Old Gods also endowed them with extraordinary wisdom, and when After Old Gods was imprisoned by Titan Keepers, the wisdom of the insect people allowed them to establish a powerful ancient empire. Even after being defeated by Troll, the insect people could still maintain their civilization.
However, when Old Gods re-establishes contact with the insect people, their wisdom will be affected. After all, what Old Gods needs is real weapons rather than a group of subordinates with their own ideas.
Nerubian Empire's Nerubians were lucky. Although they made their home on Yogg-Saron, this Old Gods was addicted to polluting Emerald Dream and tempting Titan Keepers to fall. Instead, it gave the Nerubians the opportunity to fully develop freely, thus allowing their ancient empire to continue until they met Ner'zhul.
But Qiraji was not so lucky. These unlucky guys once retained a prosperous civilization. However, when they were sealed in Scarab Wall by the dragon and Night Elf, the tragic fate of Qiraji began.
As the creation of Old Gods, Qiraji will have great respect for C'Thun, which makes them unable to resist the influence of Old Gods, and a thousand years have made Old Gods The influence of E gradually expanded, and eventually most of the bug-men gradually lost their original wisdom during this period. Only a few bug-men were still able to think normally, but they also became fanatical believers of Old Gods.
Of course, the bugmen were originally fanatics of Old Gods, but Qiraji was unlucky and was reawakened to this fanaticism, which led to the strange behavior of these large bugs.
Logically speaking, breaking out of the blockade of Scarab Wall is what Qiraji desires most. Even if they are defeated, they should choose to flee in order to survive. However, their enthusiasm for Old Gods makes them choose to return to Temple of Ahn'Qiraj when the battle situation is unfavorable, and protect the safety of their master here.
"I just asked why these insect-men are so strange." Aaron finally understood why these insect-men chose to defend themselves in a dead place after listening to Xal'atath's explanation.
As a member of the Old Gods camp, Xal'atath has a very thorough understanding of the Bugs. After all, she was involved in the rebuilding of the Black Empire by the Bugs under the command of Kraxxi general Kith'ix. When it comes to understanding the Bugs, apart from Old Gods and the Bugs themselves, she is probably the only one who can count them.
Learning from Xal'atath the reasons for the abnormal behavior of the bugs will help Aaron help the commanders of the army to designate the next strategy. "Since we know that the bugs will not escape, it is simple, let's blow up this temple."
"Blow up this temple?" Everyone in the temporary headquarters was surprised by Aaron's idea. Thorim, who immediately led the Titan-forged army here, was the first to question, "This temple is actually the key to sealing C'Thun. If it is blown up, C'Thun will come out."
"We originally wanted to lure C'Thun out." Aaron understood Thorim's worries. He continued to explain his thoughts, "Thorim, what is our final combat goal this time?"
"Kill C'Thun?" Thorim's tone was a little unconfident. If Yogg-Saron hadn't been killed, he might not have dared to think about it.
"Yes, we are here to kill C'Thun, so does it matter where we kill?"
"Isn't it important?"
"Hmm... Okay, it's actually quite important," Aaron hesitated for a moment, then continued, "If we want to enter the interior of the temple to fight C'Thun, then we will have to face a large number of bugs inside, and we will be limited by the internal environment. And according to my understanding, C'Thun has partially corrupted his cage, and fighting there will be his home field."
"Well... well, my father told me to listen to your command. Since you have your own considerations, I have no objection." Thorim thought for a moment and chose not to question it. As for his father, Odyn, the chief management officer did not come in person. According to Thorim, he was busy dealing with various problems caused by Helm of Domination.
According to Odyn, there are a large number of souls of the dead imprisoned in Helm of Domination. If the helmet is destroyed without processing, it may break the balance between life and death. The worst result may be that Shadowlands collides with reality, and no one knows what bad results will happen.
Aaron doesn't know much about Shadowlands, so he chooses to trust Odyn in this regard. After all, this person also learned the technology of manufacturing Val'kyr from Shadowlands, right?
The topic was a bit far off topic. After Aaron convinced Thorim, he turned around and looked at the commanders present. Most of them had no objections to Aaron's idea. Anyone with a discerning eye could see that Aaron's move would eliminate the home field advantage of the bugs and reduce the casualties of the soldiers. Why not?
But not everyone has opinions, such as Aspect of the Blue Malygos: "This is a good idea, but there is a problem, what should we do with our heirs? Will they be hurt in the process?"
Aaron deliberately said that it would be better for Arygos, the guy who finally took refuge in Deathwing and almost caused the complete extinction of Blue Dragonflight, to die, but considering Aspect of the Blue's In his mood, and with the existence of two Dragon Aspects descendants, Aaron came up with a plan that he had prepared for a long time. "How about we first send an elite force in to rescue the three dragons who made great sacrifices, and then carry out bombing?"
Malygos nodded, agreed with Aaron's proposal, and offered to take charge of the preparations for the bombing. If Aaron had any objections, Holy Light like Malygos could not be better used to deal with bugs and C'Thun.
Aspect of the Blue is preparing to bomb the temple, while Aaron is preparing to lead people into the temple to rescue the three giant dragons. This operation must be concealed in Aaron's plan. It is best to rescue the three unlucky children without anyone noticing.
If we only consider concealment, Aaron feels that the most professional among the troops attacking Ahn'Qiraj are the assassins of Ravenholdt. Unfortunately, these guys are only responsible for battlefield reconnaissance work, so Duke Jorach did not send many people at all. It may be difficult to rely only on these people.
After thinking about it for a while, Aaron decided to change his mind. "Assassins can hide in, so let them put a beacon in, and we can teleport in directly to save people. Wouldn't it be safe to teleport out later?"
"This can be done." Jaina, who came on behalf of Dalaran, carefully weighed it and said that there was no technical problem. Aaron was also lucky that Dalaran sent Jaina. If it was Rhonin or Kel'Thuzad, then this plan might not be successful.
After the plan was confirmed, the Ravenholdt assassin, who brought the teleportation beacon made by Jaina himself, sneaked into the shadows and entered Temple of Ahn'Qiraj. He would bring a prop made by Krasus that could sense the direction of the three-headed dragon and enter the temple. Whether the plan would succeed or not would depend on whether the assassin's Stealth skills passed the test.
