53. The Hand of Death

“I’m not a qualified engineering craftsman.”

Terion clumsily tried to remove a screw with arcane energy, while muttering:

"Although I am very interested in engineering, I am only interested. I can't understand the drawings, I can't build complex equipment, and I don't even know how to use these weird tools."

"Clang"

With a light sound, the exquisite thinking core in Terion's hand broke away from the bracket. Before it fell into the ground, it was caught in the hand by the great lord. Behind him, Lai's huge rock and steel body had been cut into pieces, as if he had experienced a terrifying murder and corpse dismemberment case, and Terion, the murderer, was trying to destroy the corpse.

But that's not the case...

Titan creations are different from mortals' lives. Although these guardians look similar to flesh and blood creatures, they are actually more similar to robots. They have a complete thinking soul, but they are bound to something called "Thinking Core". That thing is like the CPU of a computer system. If the net weight of a mortal soul is 21 grams, then the soul weight of the guardians, well... it is about 5KG.

"Well, it's so pretty."

Terion put the nearly perfect 143-sided cut-pointed thinking core in front of him. Under the dark blue light, the diamond-like crystal emitted a dazzling light, enough to make any woman in the world feel her mind swaying.

"How did the Titans make you? It's really curious..."

The great lord put down the complex engineering instruments in his hand, and he held Lai's thinking core in his hand. The black and cold power of death slowly penetrated into this thinking core along his ten fingers, just like ink polluting a clean pool of water.

Lai, whose body was removed, naturally could not speak, but the vibration in the core of the soul represented the roaring anger and reprimand in the heart of the Great Guardian. In the battle that was less than 10 minutes just now, he lost the heart of thunder and lightning, and spent tens of thousands of years in despair and collapse, facing the grand Lord of Death, he almost made substantial resistance and was ruthlessly chopped down his body.

Faced with the power of death with the power of withering and withering, the once noble guardian had no way to resist. His weapons had long been lost in time, and his family had long been betrayed. He had long been a pitiful lonely man.

"Don't worry, don't worry, I will not destroy the integrity of your soul."

The great lord closed his eyes and controlled the power of death, leaving marks on the strange soul in his hand, and he whispered:

"I said, I want to perform a small "surgery" for you. The soul of the guardian is so huge that even I can't reshape it, but it doesn't matter. I will add some small restrictions to your soul. They will temporarily strip away the impact of meaningless emotions on your thinking, just like the undead, the guardian who will not be affected by emotions. I don't want to hurt you. I just need you to calm down temporarily... Do you know the undead? Have you ever seen the undead?"

Terion put the core of thinking that was invaded by the power of death in his ears. After a moment, the Great Lord frowned:

"Also, don't swear, this does not match your identity. You are a great guardian after all..."

At this time, the perfect diamond-like thinking core in Terion's hand had been infected with black death. The death power infused into the guardian's thinking core was like flowing ink. With Lai's thinking activities, it constantly twisted the direction of movement in that thinking core, like a certain disease, affecting the thinking operation of the Great Guardian.

The Titan Guardians inherited the pure arcane power from Titans, which is one of the six basic forces of the stars. In most cases, this extremely pure and extremely high-level Titan power will help the guardians resist all external forces trying to infect their thinking. But the problem is that the Titan Guardians have been staying in Azeroth for hundreds of thousands of years, and the connection between the Pantheon and them has long been cut off, so the arcane power in the guardians has also become less pure in the flow of time.

This is why so many guardians were contaminated by the ancient gods in the sealed land of the ancient gods, in the Titan city of Odur on the Northrend continent.

But since the void can corrupt the mind of a guardian, there is no reason to die... Especially in the face of a guardian like Lai who has lost his power and has a collapsed will, the Great Lord did not waste much time and injected the pure power of death into Lai's thinking core. Although the level of the power of death is not as good as Lai's Titan Arcane power, the Great Lord does not need to completely reverse Lai's will and thinking.

He only needs to temporarily seal off the despair and collapse in Le's mind, let the great guardian remember his mission again, and let him have the instinct to think again. As for persuading guardians like Le to join him, Terion has a more suitable "persuader" than him.

"Your body is dirty and weak. You need a strong and pure warrior body... Only such a powerful body can carry your reborn soul! Only by allowing you to better fulfill your sacred mission..."

Terion held the slowly transformed thinking core in his hand in mid-air, and a hint of expectation shone in his ice blue eyes:

"Of course, I have prepared such a powerful body for you!"

As he spoke, an ice-blue crack in the death realm burst open in front of the great lord. Under the escort of several silent high-level death knights, a huge steel box was carried by two death gorons and slowly placed on the secret room in front of Terion.

In that steel box, there is a Titan body that is larger and stronger than Lai's body...

It was wearing a helmet of heavy rock and steel, and on the cleaned cheek, a serious and cold face was carved, on the forehead of the cheek exactly the same as the dark Titan Sargeras, the long horns of the two demons bent outward, like a crown.

The body of the Titan used by this dark Titan when entering Azeroth 800 years ago was Tyreon's trophy in the Tomb of Sargeras. At that time, this body was filled with powerful evil energy, but now, in the area where the power of death is strongest in the death world, after such a long time of washing, the evil energy has been stripped away bit by bit, just like armor that has been carefully brushed inch by inch.

Even the wounds cut by the guardian Eggin with magic power 800 years ago were filled with the power of death by the great lord.

It was just like a legendary armor, quietly placed in this huge steel box. When I first got the Titan body, it was only 5 meters high, but it was caused by the seal of the Tomb of Sargeras. As a container for the dark Titan to cast its soul, the Titan body in front of me can be enlarged or reduced according to the strength of the soul.

Moreover, this is just the most insignificant one of this physically powerful abilities.

To be honest, if Terion himself did not like this body made of rock and steel, and would not be able to leave his wife and children, he would even want to give up his flesh and blood body and place his increasingly powerful soul in the body of the Titan in front of him.

"This is your brand new warrior body..."

The great lord slowly floated in the air. He stood in front of the 10-meter-high box in front of him. He said to the quiet thinking core of his hand:

"This body is used by Sargeras, Dark Titan, you can feel it, right? It is more than 5 times stronger than your mass-produced body. If you adapt to it and blend it perfectly with it, I can guarantee that your self-deprecating brothers will not be your opponent even when they go together... Lai, the past is over, and we must learn to look forward!"

"I know that the demise of the Pantheon has caused your will to collapse. You can't stand your perfect Creator being easily killed, but you have to understand that there is no time left for you to be sad and painful... Let me tell you."

The Great Lord put the core of thinking in front of him, and he emphasized tone:

"After Sargeras killed your Creator, he did not let their souls go. Those poor Titans hide themselves as much as possible, but they will still be found one by one by one by the Dark Titans, and then be twisted into a fallen Titan like Agrama... You don't know yet, right? The Dark Titan used the souls left by the Titans of the Pantheon to reorganize the Dark Pantheon!"

"That tyrant wants to use the power of the Titans to help him completely destroy the entire star, and use this destruction to fight against the inevitable corrosion of the void... It's so crazy! However, can you, who are so worshipped by your Creator, accept the tragic fate of your Creator being twisted into a fallen monster?"

The great lord could feel that after he revealed the truth, the core of thinking in his palm that resisted the infiltration of the power of death weakened by half in an instant, and the black force of death began to quickly fill this perfect diamond-like thinking core.

"You don't even need an answer, I can guess your thoughts, you can't accept it! The sacrifice of the great man should be remembered by the world, not so humiliated. Look, I am now trying to fight against the Dark Titan in my own way. Fortunately, the world spirit of this world is also on my side... But if there were only two of us, it would be impossible!"

The Great Lord looked at the mind core in his hand that was increasingly immersed in black death, and he said:

"We need helpers, strong helpers, like you, like your brothers... Of course, the premise is that they must abandon their own pathetic bad habits... I see, I have given you a condition that you cannot refuse, I know you will promise me, I know you cannot refuse a request from Elune..."

He stretched out his hand and put the mind core that was transformed into almost pure black into the head of the Titan body in front of him, and then put the thundering heart of lightning into the heart of the Titan warrior.

After doing all this, Terion stepped back in the air. He looked at the body of the Titan warrior who was awakened in front of him with anticipation under the fullness of thought and power. He spread his arms, and between the brighter lightning flashes, the light in his icy blue eyes became brighter and brighter, and he whispered:

"Don't resist! Lai, let go of your heart... in the dawn covered by death, welcome your new life..."

"Together we will protect this world, you will take on that divine mission again, you will rescue your Creator in a salvation posture... You will become the hero of the Titans... I have seen that future!"

"boom"

As Terion called, the power bursting out of the heart of lightning on the chest of the Titan warrior's body became stronger and stronger, as if it had truly integrated into the body used by Sargeras. The lightning was like blood flowing in the blood vessels of the body, making the bronze-green body shine with blue light under the skin, making it look like a person waving the lightning.

The core of thinking, immersed in the power of death, began to slowly take over this powerful body. As Terion said, the body cast by the Dark Titan for its soul is quite powerful. The power contained in the body is several times stronger than the body of Lai's former guardian.

"Buzz"

The Titan warrior, who lowered his head, opened his eyes at this moment. The eyes were no longer chaotic evil energy, but replaced by the ice-blue eyes like Terion, dead and full of indifference. Obviously, the power of death injected into the core of Ley's thinking has begun to isolate the guardian's emotions, making him like the undead, and only think with the purest reason.

"Crash"

The blue and white lightning halo suddenly returned to the body of the Titan warrior at this moment. He raised his arms and, as the lightning rolled, a broken blade of rock and steel reorganized appeared in his hand. Lai roared and took a step forward, held the battle sword with lightning splashing everywhere in his hands, and roared at the great lord floating in front of him.

Faced with this rapid attack, Terion did not even blink his eyes. Facing the sword blade full of lightning and Titan power, he had no defense at all.

"Swish"

The huge, 7-meter-long battle sword stopped less than 1 meter in front of Terion's forehead. The howling sword wind blew the long hair of the great lord backwards.

“What is this doing?”

Terion raised his head, tilted his head, and looked at the resurrection of the Great Guardian in front of him, and he asked softly:

"Are you testing my courage? Or is your inner anger that you want you to cut me into two pieces?"

"No one dared to do such a evil thing to the noble guardian of Titans! You are the first! You bold and arrogant mortal!"

On the cheek of the Titan Warrior's body, the face that looked like Sargeras was quickly recovering to the original face of Lai, while the cool demon's long horns slowly retracted the Titan's body. Obviously, Lai did not like such "adornaments" that looked like Demon.

The cold eyes were filled with substantial anger and unwillingness, but after looking at the great lord for dozens of seconds, the sword in Lai's hand suddenly disappeared, and the new guardian took a step back. He placed his left hand in his chest and leaned slightly towards Terion, as if it was some special etiquette.

"However, if all you say is true, then I am willing to walk with you. The noble and great Creator should not be so humiliated by Sargeras... I will go to the heart of the world first, and if Eluen agrees with your actions, then... I am willing to drive you..."

"Then go! Hand of Death."

The Great Lord nodded with satisfaction:

"When you come back, we'll go to Odur..."

"Wake up your lost and incompetent brothers one by one... one by one! One by one..."
