Chapter 1676 The Treasure Heather Was After

Huh? The Old Gods have become Azeroth's most loyal dogs? How could I hear such a blatant contradiction?

Heather tentatively asked, "The Old God you mentioned, is the same Old God I'm talking about...?"

"Replacement guaranteed."

Seeing that the great star god had taken the bait, Xalatas immediately adopted a nonchalant and mysterious demeanor:
"The power of the Old Gods can even corrupt the Protoss, causing them to fall and become Void Titans."

If you intend to fight against the Burning Legion and Sargeras, then the power of the Old Gods will undoubtedly be an indispensable force on your side.

Heather mouthed "Wow!" and looked at Nanami: "Honey, what do you think the power levels of those ancient gods are roughly?"

"While I was searching for those divine weapons, I took a moment to look at the remnants of the Old Gods. The only Old God remaining is N'Zoth, the 'Thousand-Bearded Demon'."

He is constantly battling Yogg-Saron, the Thousand-Throat Demon, whose Nightmare power is corrupting the Emerald Dream, and whose true form resides in the deepest part of Ny'alotha, the Awakened City.

Based on my observation, N'Zoth's power ceiling is roughly the same as Cheryl the Red Cloak.

"So, you mean the level above the henchman but not yet a pillar? That's not enough to deal with Boss Sa."

Heather shook her head, immediately losing interest in N'Zoth.

Xalatas, who was kneeling beside her, looked up at Nanami in shock: "You...you went to look for N'Zoth before? How did you manage to come back unharmed?"

In Xal'atath's view, the power of the void and the power of corruption wielded by the Old Gods are the most terrifying abilities in the entire universe. This mortal named Yasushi is just a mortal with powerful physical strength. How can he resist the mental corruption of N'Zoth the Corruptor?

Nanami lowered her gaze indifferently and said in a cold voice:
"Goth'mnagh ywaq maqth fk'th sshg'nwah Azshara, N'Zoth vra zz shn'gal agthu maqth ag'qor. Kz'tuq uuql agth ywaqth goth'az."

Ancient Gods' Language!
These words alone possess terrifying magic, enough to instantly break down mortals with weak minds, corrupting their souls and flesh into servants of the void.

In Xal'atath's understanding, this meant, 'The offspring of the Black Empire will ultimately become servants of Azeroth, and N'Zoth cannot escape this fate either.'

Most importantly, she sensed a familiar void power in these words—the corrupting power of N'Zoth!

Rushina knew the secrets of the Old Gods long ago. She had gone deep into the sleeping city of Ny'alotha long before she obtained Xal'atath, and even the twisted flesh monsters under N'Zoth's command may not have escaped her clutches.

He was no longer of any value to the Star God.

Saratas jumped to his feet in a panic, desperately trying to explain himself: "Please, please wait a moment, I can help you—"

Click!

Nanami gripped the blade of the Dark Empire's Blade of Xalatas and applied slight pressure. The blade immediately made a crisp snapping sound, and the entire dagger broke in two.

Void magic, powerful enough to instantly corrode flesh and blood into dust, surged out from the broken opening, transforming into a massive vortex of deep purple mist, within which Xalatas's shrill wails and curses could be heard.

Just as the mist was about to spread and envelop Nanami and Heather, pale purple energy shone in the hall. The void energy vortex was then suppressed and rapidly condensed, eventually turning into a small purple glass bead that fell into the outstretched palm of Iris Melody.

"Father, Mother." Yi Hong Xuanlu held the purple glass bead in one hand and gracefully curtsied to Heather and Qi.

With Rainbow Melody in charge of the spatial power of the Starry Ark, how could the vortex of residual void power of Saratas possibly escape her grasp?
Looking at the humanoid form of Xalatas, the once graceful female body had turned into a pool of purple mud, no longer possessing the eloquent, beautiful, and charming appearance it had just displayed.

Heather looked at Nanami: "N'Zoth can't cause any trouble for the time being, right?"

"To prevent N'Zoth from making any moves during the final battle, I have completely wiped out Ny'alotha. Of course, it was a cleanup that did not violate the mission rules."

Nanami spoke with a nonchalant air, words that would make even the bravest warriors of Azeroth tremble with fear.

She didn't use force to eliminate N'Zoth and his minions, as that would likely have resulted in the SSS-rank mission failing. Instead, she used the 'Heavenly Rock' to subdue the Twisted Flesh Lord deep within Ny'alotha, implying that the Old Gods should at least remain asleep until Azeroth and the Burning Legion were decided.

Heather pondered: "So, just letting these sleepy residents of the Sleeping City sleep a little longer doesn't violate the rules of an SSS-level mission... well, at least not completely."

Nanami nodded slightly: "This is already the limit. I feel that even if I kill one more general-level BOSS in Ny'alotha, it may trigger the failure of the SSS-level mission."

Previously, Nanami did not participate in the starship project. Instead, she followed Heather's instructions to secretly travel around Azeroth, leading the natives of Azeroth to eliminate any forces or individuals that might hinder the final battle.

As long as there are native Azerothians acting as proxies, Seven can basically handle any difficulties by directing from behind the scenes and interfering 'slightly'.

Apart from N'Zoth and his minions hiding in the sleeping city of Ny'alotha.

Without the Azerite Necklace protecting them, any mortal entering Ny'alotha is highly likely to be mentally corrupted and die instantly. This is a matter that only Nanami can handle herself.

Fortunately, Qi Shi handled things properly, accurately grasping the very thin line between success and failure in the task.

Heather beckoned to Rainbow Melody, and the purple glass bead in the latter's palm flew up automatically and landed in Heather's hand.

The void power contained within is undeniable; it is one of the six fundamental forces that make up a level 10 Godfall-level Warcraft world, and this power is undoubtedly multi-dimensional.

Of course, the amount of Void Force in Heather's hands was far too small to be considered multi-dimensional.

"So, how much have we gotten?"

Heather casually tossed the void glass bead to Nanami, who caught it deftly and began to play with it.
"To obtain the treasure you are after, you need all six Forces to be gathered together."

Of the six Forces, Nie is attempting to connect to the Force of Life. As for the Force of Death, he has the Black Death Sword of Jin Augar and can steal a portion of it, but the specifics will require either me or LLO to handle it personally.

The seed of the Void Force is in my hands. After the final battle, I can use N'Zoth and the offspring of the Dark Empire to gain access to the Dark Void.

The Force of Light, the Force of Order, and the Force of Chaos remain.

The Force of Light will be obtained from Zera of the Legion of Light once she arrives in Azeroth.

In the end, only the Chaos Force and the Order Force remained.

The former must be obtained from Sargeras, while the latter is the possession of the Titans.

So...shall we begin this expedition against the Burning Legion?

Heather burst into laughter, rising from her throne, her voice echoing throughout the grand hall of the Starry Ark:

"Then let's get started!"
