Norem's huge body leaned forward slightly, pressing down like a small mountain, but it did not give people a strong sense of oppression, but rather a sense of closeness.

"Young Alvin, after these first two questions, I'm convinced that your knowledge is far beyond ordinary, even enough to hold a place in the long history. For an intelligent individual like you, a simple knowledge assessment is unnecessary and even insulting."

Norem said sincerely, "Exchange of ideas with a wise mind like you is a far more precious opportunity than following rigid rules. Therefore, this third question is less a test than a personal desire to engage in a philosophical discussion with you. I'd like to hear your insights on some of these grand propositions."

Hearing this, Alvin relaxed his tense nerves slightly, but he still cautiously confirmed, "In other words, no matter how I feel about this issue, whether you agree with me or not, you will keep your promise and take us to see Lord Azuregos, correct?"

"Yes."

Norem answered affirmatively, and his energy-made arms made a gesture similar to "please".

"Your answer will not affect the outcome. I just want to hear your thoughts."

Alvin took a deep breath, his gaze darkening. He gathered his thoughts and began to elaborate on his point of view. "Thank you for your approval, Lord Norem. Since you want to hear my opinion, let me discuss a threat we're currently facing, which is related to the possibility you just mentioned—the threat of the Old Gods, and how we should respond."

He paused, then continued, "First, I want to say that the Old Gods are not invincible. They too have weaknesses, even fatal ones. From what I understand, they are essentially the malignant seeds planted by the Void Lords into Azeroth, surviving by corroding the planet and devouring the energy of the star soul. Their strength lies in the pervasive whispers of their spirits and the power they exert on flesh and blood creatures, but their weakness also stems from this—they are often bound by prisons set up by the Titans, their bodies unable to move, and they must rely on their believers and the Faceless Army as their minions. This means that as long as we can resist their spiritual corruption, sever their tentacles, and find a way to attack their bodies, we have a chance to seal them again, or even severely damage them."

"Their most terrifying weapons are despair and deception, fooling people into believing they are invincible, thus willingly submitting or assimilating. But history proves they can be defeated! In ancient times, the Guardians united to fight them. More recently, the Shifting Sands War in Silithus sealed the minions of the Old Gods behind the Scarab Wall."

Elvin's tone became more urgent. "And now, a living example of this is happening! A group of crazy pagans calling themselves the Twilight's Hammer have been bewitched by the Old Gods and have completely lost their minds. They believe in the so-called Twilight Judgment and are eager to drag the entire world into pure void darkness. According to our latest intelligence, this group of cultists is gathering on a large scale in the Silithus Desert!"

He explained in detail, "Their choice of Silithus is no accident! Sleeping there is none other than one of the Old Gods—C'Thun! He is sealed deep within the Temple of Ahn'Qiraj. The Twilight's Hammer's goal is very clear: they want to find a way to weaken or even break C'Thun's seal and completely release the Thousand-Eyed Demon! Just imagine, if they succeed, C'Thun's power will spread from Silithus like a plague, and the Qiraji insect army will once again flood the world like a tide, plunging the entire world into an unprecedented catastrophe!"

"but,"

Alvin changed the subject, his eyes flashing with an unyielding fighting spirit.

"This also exposes their weakness and our opportunity! The Twilight's Hammer has to go to such great lengths to gather, perform rituals, and find a solution, which means that C'Thun's true form is still effectively imprisoned and cannot escape on its own. This gives us a window of time to stop this! We must gather our forces, penetrate deep into Silithus, thwart their conspiracy, and strengthen the seal before the Twilight's Hammer completes their evil plan! This is not blind optimism; it is the only viable path to resistance based on historical experience and current intelligence! We may not be able to kill an Old God easily, but we are absolutely capable of stopping their minions and forcing them back into the depths of their cage! If we don't even have the courage to try, then we have truly fallen into the trap of despair and become the self-fulfilling prophecy of darkness."

Alvin's words were logically clear and powerful. They not only analyzed the threat but also pointed out the hope and direction of action.

Norem listened quietly, the pages of the book on its body stopped turning, and its huge energy body seemed to be solidified.

It obviously did not expect that this young human not only possessed ancient knowledge, but also had such a clear strategic vision and firm will.

After a long pause, Norim let out a long sigh, "It's astonishing, not only your knowledge, but also your courage and unwavering determination. Elwen Priest, you have shown me the heights that mortals can reach. Perhaps the future of Azeroth will truly be different because of someone like you. I sincerely commend your insights."

"Now you can take us to see the big guy!"

Kalitasa had been waiting impatiently for a long time, and immediately jumped up and shouted when she heard the praise.

"Of course, keep your promise."

Norem no longer hesitated.

It raised its huge arm made of rune torrents and drew a complex and mysterious trajectory in the air.

"Also, when we meet later, Miss Red Dragon, please don't directly... call the master by his nickname... He doesn't seem to like it very much..."

Powerful arcane energy gathered in an instant, tearing open a rotating blue oval portal in the open space in front of it.

The door was filled with colorful lights, and one could not see the scene on the other side clearly. One could only feel the majestic energy fluctuations.

"Please come with me."

Norem floated into the portal first.

Alvin and Akalitraza followed closely behind.

The feeling of passing through the portal was like being thrown into a torrent of energy. After a brief period of weightlessness and dizziness, the two found themselves in a completely different place - the true top of the Mage Tower: the Observatory.

The two of them were almost blown off their feet by the strong wind.

Alvin believed that this place must be quiet at ordinary times, but the current scene is extremely abnormal!

They seemed to be on a vast platform without any physical walls, and above their heads was no longer the deep sky, but a madly distorted dark space.

The thick blue magic network veins visible to the naked eye twisted and broke in space like painful nerves.

Sometimes they burst into dazzling flashes, and sometimes they fall into deep shadows.

The chaotic magical turbulence flew around like invisible blades, making a sharp whistling sound.

The terrifyingly high concentration of magic swept through everything like a blizzard, making every breath they took feel like a burning pain.

The entire space was shaking violently, as if it would collapse at any time. The huge arcane energy was rushing wildly here like an uncontrolled torrent.

And in the center of this energy storm, two figures fell to the ground silently - it was Azuregos who turned back into a troll and Stellagosa who remained in the form of a high elf!

They seemed to have completely lost consciousness, their bodies gently pushed by the escaping magical energy.

"Master! Miss Stellagosa!"

Norem's energy body fluctuated anxiously, but it seemed unable to get too close to the core of the energy.

"Oh no! The worst has happened! The master's spirit is trying to forcibly connect to the core of the leyline to find Master Malygos, but I'm afraid his consciousness has been swallowed up by the raging leyline! He is now trapped in the center of the energy storm he created, along with Miss Stellagosa who tried to help him! Someone must enter the center of this storm, find their consciousness and bring them back, otherwise their souls will be forever exiled in the chaotic leyline!"

El asked, looking at Norim who seemed to be triggering the monster opening plot, feeling speechless.
