LIVE: Azeroth

Chapter 1176 Busy Illidan
Regarding the origins of Illidan's demons, barrage netizens have different opinions.

Some people think that these demons were originally Magtheridon's subordinates, and turned to the enemy after Magtheridon was defeated by Illidan and others.

It is also believed that these demons are like-minded people recruited by Illidan from the Twisting Nether by other means, and have no connection with the Burning Legion.

First of all, it needs to be clear that "demon" is actually a very general concept.

In the cognition of the people of Azeroth, as long as they are from the Burning Legion, they are collectively called demons regardless of their appearance.

But in fact, the Burning Legion is composed of countless different races.

The most well-known ones are Eredar, Nathrezim (Dreadlord), Annihilan (Abyss Lord), Shivalla (Destroyer), Ereduin (Doom Guard), Morg ( Felguard) and so on.

And one thing to note here is that not all races joining the Burning Legion are family dependent.

It is impossible for a force to have only one voice. Just as the eredar split out of the draenei due to differences in ideas, there are also members of other demon races who do not approve of joining the Burning Legion.

According to the intelligence investigated by Sharlayan, most of Illidan's demons were specially selected from people from various races who opposed the Burning Legion.

However, there are exceptions, and that is the Mistress Shahraz in front of Salayan and the others. She was originally Magtheridon's capable subordinate.

As a member of Silvara (destroyer), Shahraz with six arms cannot compare with the strong Magtheridon in terms of individual combat effectiveness.

But compared to the well-developed limbs and simple-minded Anihelan, the Xivarla family is better at intrigue and various weird spells.

When Magtheridon ruled the Black Temple, Shahraz became the leader of all female demons in Draenor by virtue of her smooth wrist and impressive strength.

On the surface, Shaheras was very loyal to Magtheridon, but in fact she didn't look down on this empty-headed and self-righteous fool at all, and thought that following Magtheridon had no future at all.

When Illidan led the naga, undead, and broken ones into the Black Temple, Shahraz immediately realized that the opportunity she had been waiting for had finally come.

The reason why Illidan was able to defeat Magtheridon was due to Shahraz's proactive internal response.

After defeating Magtheridon, Illidan adopted Shahraz's suggestion and did not kill Magtheridon on the spot.

After taking down the entire Dark Temple, Illidan imprisoned Magtheridon in the basement of Hellfire Citadel, drew his blood to strengthen the evil orcs, and at the same time used the pure shadow power obtained from Muru to suppress the demon's blood that eroded the will. side effect.

In order to reward Shahraz who turned from darkness to light, Illidan appointed the resourceful Xivarla as the chief staff officer, and her female demons became the guards guarding Illidan's palace.

When Illidan was looking for members of the "demon" race from all over the Twisting Nether who were interested in resisting the Burning Legion, the female demons under Shahraz also played a certain role in promoting.

After all... Food and sex are also sexual, and those rebellious members of the major races who are collectively called demons also have seven emotions and six desires.

[Only Illidan dares to entrust this kind of person who betrayed the former Lord without hesitation, at least I don't have such a big heart. 】

[Illidan is too lazy to care about your loyalty or not, as long as it can be used by him. 】

[Illidan has never bothered to use emotion as a bond to win over his subordinates. He pays more attention to actual interests and uses interests to bind others to himself. 】

【Then the question is, for what benefit are demons, including Mistress Shahraz, willing to gather under Illidan's banner? 】

[Who knows, let Xiaosa go and find out. 】

Sharlayan has no time to satisfy Danmaku's curiosity right now, he still has work to do.

Under the guidance of the very enthusiastic Shahraz, Sharlayan and his party entered the Dark Temple and went all the way to the core area where Illidan was located.

When passing through the various areas in the Dark Temple, Sharlayan saw various races, including Naga, Broken, undead and demons, and some powerful evil orcs were also left behind by Illidan. The Dark Temple was garrisoned.

As the chief steward of the Dark Temple, Mistress Shahraz has a very high status, no matter how rebellious the devil is, she dare not stab her in front of her.

However, Sharlayan could tell that the people under Illidan did not have a harmonious relationship with each other. Except for business, they would not leave their assigned areas, and there was almost no communication with each other.

But even so, they are willing to put aside the dispute for the time being, and follow Illidan to guard the Dark Temple together, and even fight in all directions.

'What the hell did Illidan feed them? '

Mistress Shahraz introduced the various areas of the Dark Temple to Salayan and others with witty words along the way.

However, when she led the guests to a gorgeous palace, Illidan himself was not seen in the palace.

A group of female demons are working together to open the fel energy portal, and Sharlayan can feel a very high concentration of fel energy from the other side of the door.

"Mother Shahraz, this is?"

Shahraz still explained with a smile on her face: "Guests, please wait a moment. Lord Illidan is using the power of Gul'dan's head to explore other planes. This round of exploration should end soon."

Sharlayan's eyes showed a sudden look: "Have you started looking for the Sargerite Keystone so early?"Really dedicated. '

Illidan's lifelong goal is to destroy the Burning Legion and ensure the safety of Azeroth.

In order to achieve this goal, he has been trying to find a way to find the lair of the Burning Legion - the coordinates of Argus in the Twisting Nether.

However, during the countless years of expeditions by the Burning Legion, the number of worlds conquered by them has already exceeded four digits. It is not easy to find Argus in the vast universe.

After taking down the Dark Temple, Illidan was pleasantly surprised to get a piece of important information from Shahraz, who was once a member of the Shivalla Witches' Guild.

The best way to find the specific coordinates of Argus is to seize the Sagerite Keystone, which can open the portal to Argus.

As far as Shahraz knows, the Sargerite Keystone is stored on a broken world called Mardum.

Mardum was the plane of exile that Sargeras used to imprison the demons he defeated before his fall. It is a completely independent subplane.

Still a Bronze Titan, Sargeras studied the nature of the Twisting Nether in Mardum, hoping to find a way to contain the demons...that is, the race that controls the power of fel.

However... when Sargeras discovered the greater threat of the Void Lord, he immediately changed his original plan.

After warning the Pantheon to no avail, Sargeras turned to recruiting the demons into his service.

He released all the demons who were originally imprisoned in Marton, leaving only a handful of confidantes to stay in this broken world, guarding the Sargerite keystone that can directly lead to the back door of Argus.

Apart from Sargeras himself, even the top Burning Legion leaders like Archimonde and Kil'jaeden didn't know the specific location of Mardun, and Shahraz was no exception.

In order to find Marton, since defeating Magtheridon, Illidan has been using the Skull of Gul'dan to open portals to other planes, trying to get more information from the lackeys of the Burning Legion.

'In that case...'

Sharlayan looked at Shahraz thoughtfully: "Mother Shahraz, since Illidan often goes out, who made the decision to capture Muru and extract the power of shadow?"

Shaheras was stunned for a moment, then shook her head and said with a smile: "Isn't Lord Deep Shadow suspicious of me?"

"The order was issued by Lord Illidan himself, and we are just the executors of the plan."

A smile appeared in Shahraz's eyes: "I did put forward some trivial suggestions in this plan, and it is Lord Illidan himself who makes the final decision."

"Huh~"

Sharlayan smiled noncommittally: "I see, since Illidan is willing to trust you, I, an outsider, will not say much."

Sharlayan really couldn't see Shahraz's loyalty for a while, but he believed that Illidan would have a sense of proportion.

While Sharlayan and Shahraz were chatting aimlessly, a familiar figure first jumped back from the other side of the portal. It was the demonized Illidan Stormrage.

"Oh~ I'm back."

Sharlayan waved and greeted Illidan, who was still stained with a lot of green blood, without any notice, "Thank you for your hard work, have you gained anything?"

"Whoo~"

Illidan, holding the Double Blades of Azzinoth in both hands, took a deep breath, and looked up at Sharlayan.

"It's you, you...huh? Wait!"

Through the special vision obtained by sacrificing the eyes of the demon hunter, Illidan found that Sharlayan's breath was different from the last time they parted.

"You... broke through and became a demigod?"
