Clearly, the Dark Iron Dwarves have been working here for a long time, and have actually dug out a very complex underground mine. The Dwarves' abilities in this area are almost on par with the Kobold.

There were too many mine tunnels, like a spider web. If it weren't for the game pod scanning and constantly locking onto Brann, Jiang Jie would probably have lost track of him long ago.

Brann could disguise himself as Dark Iron Dwarves because the Bronzebeard Dwarves are physically and physically similar to Dark Iron Dwarves; he could simply disguise his skin and hair color, and they also spoke the same language, making the disguise easy.

However, Jiang Jie and his group had to remain invisible at all times and carefully avoid the Dwarves, since they might still be discovered if they got too close.

It's important to know that the Dark Iron Dwarves have a stronger sense of perception than their fellow tribesmen. This tribe is renowned for its sorcery, and its number of mages is ten times that of the Bronzebeard Dwarves.

In less than ten minutes, Jiang Jie encountered three Dark Iron Flame Mages and two Dark Iron Mages. If he hadn't avoided them beforehand, he probably would have been exposed.

In such places, there are hundreds of Dark Iron Dwarves everywhere. Once exposed, there's no escape; you can only fight them head-on, and even then, you might not be able to win.

Jiang Jie was alright, after all, he could become invisible, something the four Pandaren couldn't do. Invisibility potions also have a time limit, and he didn't have enough to squander and sustain him for an hour or two.

Left with no other choice, Jiang Jie had to repeatedly strike, either by striking pressure points or by striking the unavoidable Dark Iron Dwarves with Sap.

The reason they didn't kill them outright was not only because they had no grudge against the Dark Iron Dwarves and there was no need to provoke them, but more importantly, because they were worried that making a bigger fuss would alert the other Dark Iron Dwarves.

Fortunately, they were fast enough to keep up with Brann.

What's interesting is that Brann didn't stop at all along the way, just kept walking forward. He wasn't just wandering around randomly; he clearly had a destination in mind. Obviously, this wasn't his first time here, and he knew the place well.

An hour later, they finally reached the deepest part of the mine, where a huge archway appeared before them.

This is an archway that is about ten meters high. It is clearly not intended for humans or Dwarves, but for a much larger creature. On each side of the archway is a giant statue, also about ten meters high, with knees bent, arms raised, and carrying huge stones on its back. It is somewhat similar in style to the Dwarves, but it is not in the style of Dwarves.

Uldaman is a small underground palace built by the ancient giantess Ironaya specifically to house the stagnant Troggs.

After sealing away the Old Gods, the Titan Keepers used the " Forge of Wills " to create new Titan-forged as aids in their reshaping of the world.

However, their initial design was far too complex and rushed. Instead of creating perfect servants, they created a group of rock-skinned savages, also known as Troggs or " Rockjaw Trogg." The Keeper quickly improved and revised their design, and the next generation of creations from the Forge of Wills was the Earthen.

Dwarves are the offspring of Earthen who were corrupted by the Curse of Flesh.

In fact, Dwarves originated from Uldaman, as did Gnomes.

However, these two races have long forgotten their ancient glory and their relationship with the Titans. Only a very few people still know some basic facts about the Titans. Therefore, Brann Bronzebeard, who is passionate about this research, founded the " Explorers' League " with the aim of searching every corner of the world for the treasures left behind by the Titans and excavating that history and origin.

Uldaman is a Titans dungeon, in the Titans style.

Although the Mechagnomes designed by the Titan Keepers Mimiron have all been transformed into flesh-and-blood Gnomes and left Uldaman three thousand years ago, and most of the Earthen have also become Dwarves and left Uldaman two thousand five hundred years ago, a small number of Earthen still slumber here, making it still very dangerous.

Most importantly, the Rockjaw Trogg that were initially sealed away have long since broken free of their imprisonment. Some of them have left Uldaman.

Scattered across some regions and even the Earth Elemental Plane, but a portion remains in Uldaman, where it has already conquered half of the area. This adventure is not safe.

The gate was closed, though there were obvious signs that it had been opened before, indicating that the Dark Iron Dwarves had entered but ultimately chose to close it again.

Jiang Jie saw the corpses: the corpses of the Dark Iron Dwarves, and some ugly corpses that looked like baboons.

It's Rockjaw Trogg!

These creatures actually resemble larger Kobold, leading many to speculate that Kobold evolved from Rockjaw Trogg. In other words, Earthen are a modified version of Troggs, and Dwarves are a modified version of Kobold...

Yes, that's how incredible it is.

You see, everyone actually has something to do with Titans.

Incidentally, a group of Rockjaw Trogg attacked Gnomeregan, forcing the Gnomes to seal off the city. This is another ancient connection; they are all Titan-forged, and the Rockjaw Trogg are the Gnomes ' ancestors...

Let's get back to the main topic.

When Jiang Jie arrived, he saw Brann waving his arms vigorously, talking to a Dark Iron Dwarves who looked like the leader!

Jiang Jie couldn't understand what they were saying, because they were speaking pure Dwarvish. Due to limited contact, the game pod hadn't yet deciphered or included it.

In short, five minutes later, when Brann reluctantly took out a small bag of gems, the Dark Iron Dwarves's eyes lit up instantly. He snatched the bag away, waved his hand, and several Dark Iron Dwarves, clearly his trusted followers, immediately dismissed the other Dwarves. Then, the Dwarves worked together to open the door a crack and let Brann in.

This incredible move left Jiang Jie speechless!

Then the Dwarves began to close the door.

Jiang Jie certainly wouldn't miss this golden opportunity!

He the Night Blade inside.

Four Pandaren would have a harder time, because the gap the Dwarves opened was just big enough for Brann to pass through. The Pandaren bodies were clearly oversized, couldn't make it.

Three Pandaren could squeeze in, but there was absolutely no way Old Chen could squeeze in.

Suddenly, the Dark Iron Dwarves felt a tremendous force coming from the door, and the door opened wider, allowing Old Chen to squeeze inside.

"Damn it! Is there Troggs banging on the door? Hurry up and close it! What? The guy who went in? Who cares, the gems are ours anyway!" The Dark Iron Dwarves leader muttered, looked around but found nothing amiss, and then ordered the Dwarves to push harder.

The gate slowly closed, separating two worlds.
