LIVE: Azeroth

Before the cataclysm broke out, creatures from the four elemental worlds stripped from the material world by Hela could not easily enter Azeroth.

Even the powerful elemental kings such as Neptulon and Ragnaros can only circumvent the rules by projecting clones.

During the battle in Molten Core that year, Sharlayan, who had not stepped into the demigod realm, witnessed the battle between Ragnaros clone and Windchaser Sunderland at close range.

Although Ragnaros at that time also had strength that was unmatched by ordinary people, from Sharlayan's current perspective, he was just a demigod goalkeeper.

At that time, the wind prince Sunderland had just recovered from his long imprisonment, and the strength of the two was about the same.

If Ragnaros' body far away in the land of flames can micro-manage the whole process, he may have a chance to defeat Sunderland, who is in poor condition.

However, due to Sharlayan's plan, when Sunderland led the coalition of dark iron dwarves and high elves into the core of the Molten Core, the Firelands were also being attacked by the water elemental army headed by Neptulon.

The clone of the Firelord who had no time to distract him finally took revenge, and the slavery of the Dark Iron Dwarves for more than 200 years came to an end.

Among the four elemental kings of Azeroth, Ragnaros the Firelord and Al'Akir the Wind Rider still stand firmly in line with the Old Gods.

Stonemother Therazane is tired of the endless empty promises of the Old Gods, and has no interest in protecting Azeroth. She maintains a neutral attitude of not helping each other.

Neptulon, the tide hunter, has clearly sided with the defenders of Azeroth.

After the Battle of Estorante, Sharlayan had a detailed exchange with Neptulon's clone.

From Neptulon, Sharlayan learned a lot of important information about the elemental world and elemental creatures.

The first is the true strength of the elemental king.

The elemental king of Azeroth is not something that can be touched by the elemental king raised in a world without star souls like Draenor.

According to Neptulon, the strength of the main body of the four kings of elements is indistinguishable, and they all have a median strength of level 65, which is slightly weaker than the five guardian dragons.

If you want to quickly increase the strength of elemental creatures, the best way is to expand the territory.

It should be noted that the so-called expansion site here is not just a literal meaning.

Strictly speaking, Neptulon's words should be interpreted as expanding the field.

Taking Ragnaros as an example, the Molten Core is the new territory laid by the Fire Demon King outside the Firelands. This lava-filled underground area has already been marked with the fire element.

If the Molten Core continues to exist, when the elemental world and Azeroth are reconnected in the future, Ragnaros and the flame lords who also sent clones into Azeroth will be able to assimilate their clones. Further strengthen its own strength.

This is also one of the main reasons why when Sharlayan contacted Neptulon through Duke Hydraxis, the tide hunters readily agreed to raid the Firelands to draw Ragnaros' attention.

Once Ragnaros has a firm foothold in Azeroth, the fighting power of the Firelord will surpass that of Neptulon, Al'Akir, and Therazane, completely breaking the barrier between the four elements. Tens of thousands of years of balance of power.

And this is obviously what Neptulon, who has a deep hatred with Ragnaros, does not want to see.

After all, fire and water are incompatible.

Things are different on Draenor than on Azeroth, but the general rules are the same for elementals.

"Expand the territory?"

As the eldest brother among the four elements, Godau asked in a low voice: "You also know that the current situation in Draenor is not optimistic, and places other than Nagrand have more or less been eroded by fel energy."

"With the influence of the Elemental Throne, which has fallen to the bottom...can it really expand the territory smoothly?"

Godau's concerns are not without reason.

In addition to the problem of evil energy erosion, all areas of Draenor are now dominated, and not all forces can accept the entry of elemental creatures.

"This is..."

Sharlayan lowered his head and pondered for a moment: "First of all, you should forget about the two most polluted places, Shadowmoon Valley and Hellfire Peninsula."

"Even the Throne of the Elements, which was once at its peak, needs all the strength of the four elemental kings to gather all the power to create the elemental wrath Senluken in Shadowmoon Valley. At least in the next few years...even decades, don't you Focus on those two areas."

"Besides, whether it's Zangarmarsh, Talador Forest, Blade's Edge Mountains or Frostfire Ridge, I can speak."

"As long as you promise that you won't be tempted to occupy the magpie's nest when you become stronger in the future, I can help you build a bridge and lead you to send your subordinates to create elemental fields around Draenor."

"This……"

The four kings of elements communicated in secret for a while, with flickering eyes, before Godau stood up as a representative and raised their questions.

"Mr. Sharlayan Deep Shadow, please forgive me for being stupid, you help us so much... What are you trying to do?"

Sharlayan smiled calmly: "Don't get me wrong, I don't have any shady conspiracy, this is a win-win proposal."

"As you said, the environment in Draenor is not optimistic."

"Although I have dispatched many druids from Azeroth to try to improve the environment, this is destined to be a long-term project that will take a very long time."

"For Delano, we are just outsiders who don't understand the local conditions. If we can have local people to provide assistance within our ability, the progress of the environmental improvement project can be greatly advanced."

Sharlayan raised his finger to the four elemental kings headed by Godau: "In my opinion, you are the most suitable local helpers."

The four elements are the basis of the world, and the elemental creatures, as the spokespersons of the power of the elements, will naturally have a part of the ability to reshape the world.

Sharlayan was dissatisfied with the progress of the Draenor environmental improvement project, because it was too slow.

For example, if a lake polluted by fel energy can be purified with the assistance of water elements, the pressure that druids need to bear can be greatly reduced.

The same goes for soil and air.

If the fel volcano named Hand of Gul'dan in Shadowmoon Valley can be dealt with by the more powerful Godau and Ethan Ratus, it is theoretically possible to purify it.

However, the current strength of the Godau four is obviously not enough. They must expand the elemental field step by step to strengthen themselves.

All in all, Sharlayan's helping the elemental creatures is not just out of good intentions, he also has his own calculations, but this calculation is by no means a bad thing for Draenor as a whole.

In any case, Sharlayan offered to offer help, which was a very good thing for elemental creatures.

Today's Elemental Throne is so weak that it can't even fully expand its influence in Nagrand. It must lower its profile and cooperate with the Mag'har orcs to expand its sphere of influence step by step cautiously.

A journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step, and Sharlayan did not aim too high for the Kings of Elements.

In front of the four elemental kings, Sharlayan promised to help them connect with the alliance commander stationed in Talan, and strive to let the elements spread their influence in Nagrand, the "novice village" with the lowest difficulty, as soon as possible.

After the elemental creatures had improved to a certain extent, Sharlayan would guide them into the adjacent Zangarmarsh and Talador Forest to help the druids purify the water, soil and air of Draenor.

As Sarlayan said, it's a win-win plan.

Elemental creatures can increase their strength through gradually expanding territories, and other races in Draenor can also enjoy many invisible benefits of optimized environments.

That being the case, the elemental kings naturally have no reason not to agree.

The last time Sharlayan came to Nagrand and entrusted the local Alliance garrison to search for the Ashtongue Deathsworn, Sharlayan had met and chatted with Tara's commander.

This time, he didn't need to make another trip himself. Sharlayan summoned a ghost familiar to run errands, and conveyed the Throne of Elements' intention to cooperate to the Alliance Commander in Nagrand.

Sharlayan didn't need to worry about the follow-up negotiations. With the cooperation of Throne of the Elements, Mag'har and the Alliance, this win-win plan should be carried out smoothly.

Busily forgetting about business, Sarlayan changed from her previous serious posture, and imitated Onyxia's appearance and became lazy.

"The details of the follow-up cooperation will be discussed by you and the alliance slowly. Taking advantage of this rare busy vacuum period, my family and I will take a good rest for a while."

Godau and the others nodded in haste and agreed: "Of course, you are always welcome to the Throne of Elements, so... let's get busy first?"

Sharlayan smiled and took out a fishing rod from the space package: "Go ahead, don't worry about us... Oni, Jaina, I'm going to go fishing by the lake for a while, how about you?" (End of this chapter )
