Chromie didn't roll.

The Gnomes girl didn't care at all, even though the two people in front of her barely had any clothes left.

So what?

She'd seen this kind of thing countless times while overseeing the timeline; what's so special about it?

At first, I found these scenes quite interesting, analyzing the poses and comparing them to others, ranking them in order of merit. But after seeing them many times, I realized they were all just like that, nothing special.

Isn't it boring to do the same exercise over and over again?

So she had absolutely no idea why these two guys were suddenly so angry and embarrassed. Was it because they'd seen her in an inappropriate position?

"You guys continue, you guys continue, don't mind me... Oh right, do you want me to teach you? I know 108 positions!" Chromie stood to the side, her big, adorable eyes wide open, and kindly offered.

She hoped to express her apology for disturbing others in this way.

Fenna: "..."

Her face turned completely red. With a startled cry, she quickly escaped from Jiang Jie's embrace, grabbed her clothes haphazardly from the floor, and ran to another room, slamming the door shut behind her.

"What's wrong with her? Hmm, this scene seems familiar... Right, I've seen it before when someone's husband or wife breaks in during an affair, and it's like this!" Chromie rubbed his head, thinking that there was indeed too much information in his brain, making it difficult to extract. Even recalling one thing was so hard. The timeline of the surveillance was really not Long Qian's.

" Chromie, I really want to kill you, do you know that?" Jiang Jie helplessly, putting on his clothes and pressing down on a certain protrusion to hide it.

I'm only 16 in this life, but it was different in my past life. I've seen all kinds of scenes in movies, and my face is thicker and harder than Anub'arak's carapace. I don't care.

"You think you can beat me?" Chromie asked doubtfully.

Jiang Jie silent.

Okay, this Gnomes little girl is actually an adult Bronze Dragons, and most likely a Legendary Bronze Dragons at that. I really can't beat her.

"Didn't Nozdormu teach you not to peek at others? It's bad, it'll scare you to death! So many tragic lessons have been taught, so many families' happiness has been destroyed by fear like this!" Jiang Jie looked at the little girl in front of him, thinking, "Being watched by a mother dragon who has lived for who knows how many years, is it me who's at a disadvantage, or me?"

"Our job is to spy on others... no, our job is to monitor the timeline!" Chromie declared righteously, then added kindly, "Do you want to go check on her? It's okay, I can wait. You can continue, I can wait a few days."

How many days?

How many more days?

Do you think I'm a male dragon?

Besides, you've scared me this much, how can we possibly continue?

Jiang Jie felt a pang of regret. He shouldn't have forcibly shut down the game pod to prevent Xiao Feng from peeking. In the end, without Xiao Feng's warning, a mother dragon had seen them, which was a huge loss for him.

"Wait a moment." Jiang Jie over and knocked on the door, but it didn't open.

Jiang Jie could only wait.

Ten minutes later, the door finally opened. Fenna's face was still flushed, but at least she was dressed, and her heart was still beating fast.

"Ignore this shameless little girl." Jiang Jie naturally took Fenna's hand and walked up to Chromie: "So, what's the matter that you're in such a hurry to see me about?"

"I'm not in a hurry. You know, the one thing our race has no shortage of is time." Chromie blinked her big eyes, and seeing Jiang Jie's murderous glare, quickly waved her hand and said, "Well... okay, actually I am in a bit of a hurry. I'm going back soon, and I wanted to see you before I left."

"Alright, let's talk." Jiang Jie sighed helplessly, feeling rather uncomfortable.

Nobody's going to be comfortable when a Bronze Dragons comes knocking.

"Before Medivh left, he went to the Caverns of Time. Nozdormu was very interested in you, but he was busy, so he sent me to check on you." Chromie rubbed his eyes, somewhat annoyed. "But you're acting strangely; a time mist is obscuring you, even the Hourglass of Time can't see you clearly. I couldn't pinpoint your location directly, so I came to find her after hearing that you're close to Sister Fenna."

elder sister?

Are you sure that's the right way to call it?

Is it really appropriate for you to act so young?

Jiang Jie turned his head and saw Fenna's puzzled look. He quickly grabbed her hand and explained, "She's a Bronze Dragons, the kind that spyes on people when she's bored... You must have heard of their legends, right?"

"... I've heard of it." Fenna looked at the Gnomes little girl in front of her and couldn't connect her with the huge and terrifying dragon.

"So, what exactly do you want to see in me?" Jiang Jie asked seriously.

"Let's see if you have the ability to become the Keeper of this world." Chromie said crisply, " Medivh said that this world may not need Keeper, but having Keeper is good too. His theory is: as long as you stand on the side of Azeroth, everything you do for this world will be beneficial in total. Although Nozdormu thinks this theory is very unreasonable, he still wants me to take a look. Medivh gave you the key to Karazhan, didn't he?"

"Here you go." Jiang Jie reached out, and a key appeared in his hand. " Nozdormu wouldn't be interested in it, would he?"

" Medivh gave it to you; the Bronze Dragons isn't interested," Chromie said. "He gave you the key, which is the same as giving you Karazhan. Do you even know what Karazhan is?"

Karazhan is the mage tower built by the previous Keeper Aegwynn, and is the most powerful mage tower in the world. It's also where Medivh spent decades, but since Chromie asked, she's definitely not referring to that.

indivual.

Jiang Jie thought for a moment, then said, "In ancient times, Sargeras created the evil scythe ' Ulthalesh Ulthalesh, the Deadwind Harvester ' and gave it to Azeroth's first necromancer, ' Satiel.' Later, Satiel used this scythe to harvest the souls of all the inhabitants of Deadwind Pass, creating a massive explosion that resulted in a powerful magical nexus appearing in the middle of Deadwind Pass, along with countless spacetime rifts, making this place very unstable and frequently intruded by beings from other dimensions. Is this what you're referring to?"

"That's right! It seems Medivh really thinks highly of you; he even told you this."

Chromie nodded slightly. " Aegwynn built Karazhan on the Nexus, essentially fulfilling her duty as Keeper, preventing extradimensional beings from freely entering Azeroth and protecting the world. Now Medivh has entrusted it to you, so you must shoulder this responsibility. Karazhan too special; Nozdormu thinks Medivh's decision was too hasty, so I've come to see if you're qualified to take on this responsibility."

"So, what do you think?" Jiang Jie shrugged.

"I can't tell." Chromie shook his head decisively. "The closer I get to you, the less I can see you. There's too much spacetime mist around you. I can't even cast spells near you. Any spells related to time are ineffective against you and can't affect you. But this at least confirms that you are indeed extraordinary."

"So what's your decision?" Jiang Jie finally felt relieved and asked with a smile.

"I've been away long enough. It's time to go back and fulfill my duties as Bronze Dragons, and report to Nozdormu, though I don't know if I'll ever be able to find him."

Chromie said, "I have a warning for you! You absolutely must take me with you to Karazhan! You don't understand time and space, so don't cause any trouble that we won't be able to clean up!"

"... Okay, I'll let you know when the time comes." Jiang Jie agreed. Why not use Bronze Dragons as a laborer?

He suddenly remembered something, quickly took out the broken staff handle, and asked, " Chromie, you should recognize this, right?"

"This is... um, let me think, my brain hasn't been working too well lately."

Chromie tilted her head and thought for a few minutes before shaking her head vigorously, "I remember now! Isn't this the staff of the Guardian of Tirisfal, called... Atiesh?"

"Yes, Atiesh." Jiang Jie asked, "Then, do you know where its staff head and staff head went?"

"You want to repair it? That's understandable. Since Medivh entrusted Karazhan to you, this staff should be repaired too." Chromie nodded. "The staff head is with Kel'Thuzad, but finding him won't be easy. He has the ' Book of Medivh,' making it difficult to locate him using time detection. The staff tail is in Dalaran, which isn't easily monitored by the Bronze Dragons either; there are many artifacts interfering, and the Violet Citadel Barrier also has the ability to interfere with spacetime."

Jiang Jie nodded.

Just as I thought, neither situation is easy to handle; I need to think of a solution.

"This staff has been corrupted by Sargeras ' power. To repair it, you must purify it. Just find any Holy Light sanctuary: Light's Hope Chapel, Stratholme Festival Lane... or simply find a powerful enough Paladin or Priest, like Uther."

After Chromie finished speaking, she transformed into a two-meter-long fledgling dragon. "I'm not talking to you anymore, I have to go! Next time we meet... well, maybe next time!"

The window opened automatically, and Chromie flew away.

"This little girl..." Jiang Jie smiled, then looked at the person beside him. "Shall we... continue?"

"No!" Fenna quickly broke free from his embrace, ran into another room, and slammed the door shut. "You sleep outside! I'm sleepy!"

Jiang Jie sighed deeply.

How can I sleep when you're right next door?
