Chapter 315: Twilight Approval (Part ) Onyxia's head was hung on the gate of Stormwind City, proclaiming the powerful strength of the Stormwind Kingdom. The second part, "War of the Quicksands", tells the story of the war against the insects in Ahn'Qiraj, and the clues were brought by Jaina. After Varian and others left Theramore, Jaina felt that something was wrong with Onyxia, so she and Aegwynn investigated the black dragon's lair and found that the evil forces of the Twilight's Hammer were lurking nearby. They tracked the Twilight's Hammer to Silithus, where they found the half-orc assassin Garona. The two talked with Garona and learned that the Twilight Hammer was trying to open a powerful seal in the south. Garona discovered the magic of the dragon on that seal. Aegwynn asked Jaina to return to Theramore first. She rushed to the Caverns of Time in Tanaris and found the bronze dragon. The Bronze Dragon King Nozdormu was missing, and Queen Soridormi received her. Aegwynn asked about the seal in southern Silithus, and Soridormi used magic to show her how powerful the enemy behind the seal was. Trolls live in the Zandalar region. They worship all powerful creatures and regard them as Loa gods. On a mountain in Zandalar, a powerful creature was sleeping. Some trolls thought it was also a Loa, so they worshiped it all day long. Later, the creature did wake up, but it was not a Loa, but a demon. He summoned a large number of monsters to kill the trolls. These monsters are the Zerg. The insects were extremely powerful, and they killed the trolls and forced them to retreat to an isolated city. Later, with the courageous and fearless efforts of countless trolls and the sacrifice of many Loa, the insects were defeated and the demon was sealed again. However, the Zerg had a strong ability to reproduce, and they soon returned. In order to eradicate them, the trolls split into several tribes and chased several Zerg teams to various parts of the ancient Kalimdor continent. Later, these trolls built cities in various places and fought against the Zerg for a long time. The Drakkari trolls established Zul'Drak, the Amani trolls established Zul'Aman, and the Gurubashi trolls established Zul'Gurub, and they all established new troll empires. Most of the Zerg were killed, and the rest either fled to the north or the south. The Zerg that fled to the south were the Zerg of Ahn'Qiraj. They hid in Silithus and turned it into a desert. After they accumulated a certain amount of strength, they infiltrated out again, but they didn't expect that the bronze dragon had settled in Tanaris.
After the bronze dragons discovered the danger posed by the Zerg, they immediately joined forces with other dragons and night elves to launch a war against the Zerg in Ahn'Qiraj. This war was called the War of the Quicksands. The night elves lost too many people in this battle. Even the favorite son of the then night elf commander, Archdruid Fandral Staghelm, died in this war. When the war ended and the insects were sealed, Staghelm angrily smashed the key to open the seal. Soridormi told Aegwynn that the dragon army was hunting Deathwing, and that mortals were needed to resolve the crisis. Aegwynn returned to Theramore and told Jaina about this. Jaina immediately proposed to unite the Alliance and the Horde, even though the Horde was the enemy who killed her father. Here, Liu Hongmin made a change. Jaina's father, Admiral Daelin, once led a fleet after the Battle of Mount Hyjal to hunt down the orcs. Jaina's brother died in the orc war, so Daelin was full of hatred for the orcs. At that time, Jaina thought the timing was not right, as the orcs had united with the tauren and trolls, and had also eased relations with the night elves. Maiev was not able to hunt down Illidan, and Malfurion and Tyrande were not in Ashenvale with their support. If a war broke out, they would have to fight the entire Horde alone. On the sea, it would be no problem, but on land, they couldn't even beat the orcs, let alone the tauren, whose combat capability was stronger than that of the orcs. Unfortunately, Daelin did not listen and questioned the need to go to war with the orcs. The news reached Thrall, who organized a raid, rushed into Daelin's camp, and killed him. Jaina is also helpless, but she is more rational than Daelin. The profession of mage makes her know too many secrets, and she cannot affect the entire human alliance for personal hatred. Although this change still cannot change the saintly attribute of Jaina, it is better than the original plot where Jaina cooperates with Thrall to kill Daelin. So, Jaina sent invitations to both the Alliance and the Horde to prepare for a second summit meeting. This time, the two sides finally sat together. After some discussion, they reached a temporary consensus and decided to jointly resolve the crisis of the Ahn'Qiraj insects. Because of Daelin's incident, the two sides had a greater rift. However, with the close relationship between the night elves and the tauren as guarantors, the two sides signed a truce agreement. Each race put forward a general to compete fairly for the supreme commander of this war. In the end, it was the orc king Saurfang who demonstrated his tactical command ability and won everyone's praise. Next, both sides began to prepare supplies and then launched an attack on Silithus together. The coalition forces gathered in Silithus and launched an attack on the nearby Zerg nests. King Saurfang did not rush for success, but let the soldiers adapt to the Zerg's fighting style. After that, he began to deploy troops and clear out several Zerg nests. Finally, the army arrived at the Scarab Wall. The coalition set up camp under the wall, and four dragons descended from the sky. They were the blue dragon Arygos, the red dragon Kelestrasz, the green dragon Mylinsera, and the bronze dragon Anachronos. They collected the fragments of the Quicksand Scepter and recast it. Anachronos struck the Scarab Gong and touched the seal of the Scarab Wall. Countless insects rushed out and attacked the coalition forces. Although the coalition army was well prepared, they were still shocked by the endless number of Zergmen. Soldiers fought with weapons to defend the city, spellcasters dealt with flying insects in the sky, melee professions charged forward to stop the Zergmen, and ranged attacks fired shells and arrows at the Zergmen. The night elf priests prayed to the moon god, and countless arcane energies fell from the sky to stop the Zergmen. Just when everyone thought they had stopped the insect people, an army suddenly attacked the coalition forces from behind, disrupting the coalition forces' position. The insects took the opportunity to launch a fierce attack, repelling the coalition soldiers and bringing this army behind the beetle wall. Then the insects retreated one after another, relying on the beetle wall for defense. Obviously, the insects rushed out of the beetle wall just to bring this team back.
King Saurfang ordered to stop the pursuit. At this time, Garona appeared quietly and brought bad news to the coalition forces. That team was the Twilight's Hammer. They entered the Scarab Wall in order to meet a powerful being. At this time, Anachronos revealed the truth to everyone: Underneath Ahn'Qiraj, there was an ancient god, C'Thun, the Thousand-Eyed Demon, sealed. (End of this chapter)
