Chapter 571 Catastrophe
Chapter 571 Catastrophe
Yun and Nefarian turned a corner carefully, and the sight before them made them stare with wide eyes. They saw a spacious and bright cave in front of them, as if it was a mysterious treasure house hidden deep underground. Many tall and sturdy scaffoldings were built around the cave, like an intricate steel forest.
The most eye-catching thing is the huge iron pieces hanging above. They flashed coldly under the weak light, which made people feel awe. Especially the largest iron piece at the front. Yun only took a glance and immediately recognized it as the large source armor worn on Neltharion's chin!
"So this is where Neltharion's source armor was installed..." Yun whispered softly, revealing a hint of emotion and amazement. He never thought that one day he would be able to witness this legendary scene with his own eyes.
Hearing Yun's words, Nefarian on the side showed surprise on his face and asked in disbelief: "Huh? You actually know about the Elementium Armor?" Obviously, Nefarian was very surprised that Yun could identify this Elementium Armor so easily and understand its purpose.
Yun secretly complained in his heart, realizing that he seemed to have said too much. He quickly covered it up by saying, "Uh... I just know a little bit." However, at this moment, he could no longer take back what he had said before.
Then, Nefarian frowned and continued to ask with a puzzled look on his face: "Why did my father wear these heavy armors? Is there some unknown secret hidden in it?"
Looking at the confused and bewildered Nefarian in front of him, Yun couldn't help but feel more and more surprised and incredible in his heart - even Nefarian, the son of Neltharion, was completely unaware of this matter! This was really unbelievable.
Nefarian scratched his head, thought for a while and then said slowly: "Well... To be honest, I don't know the specific reasons. I just remember that there was a period of time, my father suddenly became obsessed with collecting those precious and rare source ores. Then, I don't know how he managed to get a large number of goblins and dwarves, and forced them to forge armor for them day and night. But the problem is that our black dragon clan is inherently powerful. As the guardians of the earth, our own defense is invincible, enough to surpass the existence of all creatures in the world, even those mysterious ancient gods can hardly hurt us easily! In this case, if there is any power that can hurt us, I'm afraid even wearing these so-called source armors will be useless." After speaking, Nefarian shook his head helplessly, indicating that he was also very confused about this.
Hearing this, Yun was silent for a moment, thinking to himself, "Alas, the situation of this guy Nefarian is indeed a bit special. After all, all the information about him is currently only at the level of my understanding of that game. As for the real situation in reality, I really dare not jump to conclusions now. Therefore, facing Nefarian's questioning, it is better for me not to give a definite answer easily for the time being, so as not to mislead him." Thinking of this, Yun sighed softly and said to Nefarian, "Well, this... Actually, I can't be completely sure."
"You speak first." Nefarian stared at Yun in front of him and asked solemnly. After all, Yun, like Nozdormu, was a mysterious being that had the ability to see into the future. Although the future scenes seen might not necessarily happen, they had a great chance of becoming reality. Therefore, Yun's judgment and insights into the current situation were undoubtedly crucial.
Hearing Nefarian's question, Yun nodded slightly, pondered for a moment, and then slowly said, "Well, according to my speculation, the various violent energies in Nefarian's body are now on the verge of getting out of control. They are like a ferocious beast, tearing his body apart frantically. And those armors attached to his body are not just a simple protective function as they seem on the surface. In fact, these armors are more like sutures, trying their best to piece together Nefarian's body that is about to fall apart."
Yun's words startled Nefarian, and he subconsciously retorted: "How is this possible! What kind of energy is strong enough to tear apart my father's body? Even if..." However, Nefarian suddenly stopped halfway through his words, as if he realized that what he was about to say was inappropriate.
Seeing this, Yun raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a slightly mocking smile, and said mercilessly: "Even Galakrond's energy can't cause such serious damage to him, right?"
Facing Yun's sharp words, Nefarian's face flashed with surprise, but he soon regained his composure. He looked at Yun and said lightly, "So you know everything." It seemed that he was not too surprised that Yun knew these things.
Yun chuckled softly and continued, "Not only that, what if I told you that it was me who injured Galakrond personally, and then Nefarian had the opportunity to obtain part of the power of Galakrond's body?" After saying that, he stared at Nefarian quietly, waiting for his reaction.
"This..." Hearing this, Nefarian couldn't help but widen his eyes, his face full of astonishment. Although he felt that this matter was unbelievable in his heart, it was obviously meaningless to lie about such a serious issue. After all, both Neltharion and Nozdormu were personal experiencers of the incident that year. If Yun made up a lie about this matter, his lie would be exposed immediately.
However, if we think about it from another angle, if what Yun said is true, then it means that he has the strength to injure Galakrond! Since he can do this, it is probably not difficult to injure Neltharion. Moreover, if Neltharion is in trouble because of the excess energy in his body as Yun described, then as long as we ensure that the mysterious armor cannot be equipped on Neltharion, he can basically be killed.
Thinking of this, Nefarian frowned, his heart still full of doubts: "But... my father's body is indestructible and extremely strong. The situation you described should not be possible." He could not fully understand this unacceptable conclusion no matter what.
"I am also deeply confused by this. According to common sense, this is simply impossible! In the future scene that I foresaw before, the reason why Nefarian was in such a state was entirely because he obtained powerful energy from the ancient god N'Zoth. However, as for N'Zoth, I have already dealt with him properly. Logically speaking, Nefarian should not have any way to obtain N'Zoth's energy." Yun muttered to himself with a puzzled look on his face.
Hearing this, Nefarian on the side couldn't help but widen his eyes, his face full of astonishment: "Uh... what? You actually got rid of N'Zoth?" You know, that was the ancient god that made countless people tremble in fear. It was really unbelievable that Yun was able to deal with him.
Facing Nefarian's surprise, Yun quickly waved his hand and explained: "It can't be said that N'Zoth was completely eliminated. It was just that he was cleverly prevented from meeting Nefarian."
"Oh, so that's how it is. But as far as I know, my father seems to have accidentally obtained a considerable amount of ancient god energy." Nefarian said after calming down a little.
"Unintentionally?" Yun's face suddenly turned gloomy. He obviously disagreed with this statement. After all, such a huge amount of powerful ancient god energy is not something that ordinary people can easily obtain and carry to the Black Rock Tower. If you insist on saying that all this is purely accidental, it would be too far-fetched.
"That's right, by chance, we unexpectedly harvested the corpse of an ogre that contained powerful Old God energy! That guy apparently exploded and died because he couldn't withstand the massive amount of Old God energy in his body. In this way, these precious Old God energies fell into our hands. Then, we immediately took action, trying to absorb and make good use of this mysterious and powerful power." Nefarian narrated with a solemn expression.
Hearing this, Yun couldn't help but sneer, and mocked with disdain: "Humph, such a clumsy and low-level method can succeed? It's really ridiculous!"
However, Nefarian was already extremely anxious at the moment, and had no time to care about Yun's sarcasm. He asked anxiously: "Don't worry about these things for now. In this situation, how should we deal with it?"
Yun calmed down a little, thought for a moment, and said, "It's okay, I'll go out and take a look." At this time, he had some understanding of the current situation. He didn't need to worry too much about his own safety for the time being. Thinking of this, Yun no longer hesitated and resolutely walked out.
As soon as Yun appeared, he was spotted by the goblins and dwarves who were busy working on the scaffolding. But surprisingly, although they noticed Yun's appearance, they showed no sign of stopping or questioning him. Nefarian didn't even come out with him. It was obvious that he was deeply afraid of Neltharion. He didn't care about Yun and didn't expect him to be of any help.
But after walking a few steps, Yun suddenly realized that something was wrong - the source armor was still being forged, but it was quietly placed there, but Sario was nowhere to be seen! If he couldn't find Nazario, wouldn't Yun be embarrassed?
He couldn't help but want to go back and ask Nefarian, but seeing his expression, he gave up looking for him.
Just as Yun was looking around, a huge dragon head emerged from the magma.
"Yun? Why are you here?" said Nefarian.
"Huh? Are you still conscious?" Yun looked at the huge dragon head in surprise.
"Nonsense, of course I'm conscious. What are you doing here?" asked Nefarian in some surprise.
"Um...that...why did you make this armor?" Yun couldn't say, "You want to destroy the world, so I'll come and destroy you in advance."
"The energy in my body is too chaotic. I need to use the power of the source material to suppress it." said Nefarian.
"Ah? You know that too? And the source material can suppress these energies?" Yun was a little confused. He thought he knew a lot and could show off in front of Nefarian, but it turned out that the other party knew everything, and it seemed that he knew more than him, especially the function of this source material, Yun had no idea at all.
"Of course, the source material is a very strange substance. It is only produced in small quantities deep underground. It has an inhibitory effect on any energy, and the inhibition is more serious for energy that is not from this planet." said Nefarian.
"Hmm?" Why did Yun feel that all this was somewhat familiar?
"What are you surprised about? Haven't you humans long used stones containing trace amounts of source material to suppress magic?" said Nefarian.
"When did we...do you mean the Redridge Mountain slabs?" Yun looked at Nefarian in surprise.
"Yes, some source energy is always released when I forge armor. Over time, the stones here have source energy." said Nefarian.
Yun was a little embarrassed. It turned out that the Redridge Mountain stone slabs could suppress magic because of the effect of source energy. And it seemed that the entire Redridge Mountain was full of source energy. That was why Redridge Mountain couldn't cast spells. Sure enough, everything happened for a reason.
"Then can you just use these armors? The energy of the ancient gods has no effect on you? Don't you suspect that the source of these ancient gods' energy is a bit strange?" Yun said directly.
"I... there's nothing wrong with me." As Nefarian said this, his face showed an abnormal distortion.
"What's wrong with you?" Yun was a little worried about Nefarian.
"You are the Cloud." Nefarian suddenly changed his tone.
"You... who are you?" Although Nefarian was still the same Nefarian, Yun deeply felt that Nefarian's aura had changed greatly, especially the violent aura that was rushing towards him.
"Haha, my name is Deathwing, the destroyer of the sky, the terminator of all things. I am unstoppable and cannot be disobeyed. I am the Cataclysm."
"Catastrophe..." Yun said unconsciously at the end of Nefarian's lines.
"You are indeed a cloud. That makes things easier." Naxxramas suddenly smiled.
Yun suddenly became alert and was about to retreat, but a black chain suddenly appeared under him and trapped him. Yun used his energy to break free from the chains, but Naxxramas suddenly opened his mouth and swallowed Yun.
