Chapter 358 I'll eat you again at 1 a.m.
Imagine you're about to eat, but your food suddenly says it misunderstood...
What would you do?
What is the reaction...?
Lorraine felt that if it were him, he would probably throw away the food in terror and run away, so that the food could escape... and that food was himself!
Humans are generally compassionate and sympathetic, so they avoid eating live animals... In some regions, there is a custom of eating raw octopus tentacles, sashimi, or shellfish.
However, the beginning and end are usually removed and the process is simplified to reduce discomfort.
Animals, especially carnivores, have absolutely no such taboos.
In insects, cannibalism is a common occurrence...
They will make their prey or enemy watch helplessly as they are eaten while they are still alive!
......
Lorraine's mind raced through the books he had read and the things he had seen... including what his teacher had explained about the dangerous races on the continent of Azeroth... Trolls, ogres, spider demons—these kinds of creatures with "demon" in their names were naturally powerful, savage, primitive, and dangerous beings.
They all possess intelligence...and their history of reproduction is so long and ancient that it far surpasses that of modern humans or any new forces that claim to be civilized...
The ruins of the troll civilization are now scattered throughout almost every part of Azeroth... but we won't discuss that for now.
The current threat is the Zerg... Lorraine carefully examined which type of Zergling had captured him... Logically speaking, Zerglings are all servants of the Old Gods... His teacher had said that the Zerg were most likely a race created by the Old Gods...
Why would they actively attack the Faceless Ones here?
Could it be internal strife...?
"It's possible that there were conflicts among the Old Gods... They fought each other, and the fifth Old God, Xalatas, who once disappeared, was killed by the other four Old Gods..."
During the Dark Empire era, the Aqir insectoids once ruled the world!
They once waged a long and protracted war against the trolls, until their defeat...
......
Zerg!
It seems that brainless arthropods...were once the rulers of Azeroth!
The Qiraji, in the southern desert of Kalimdor, have a city called the Temple of Ahn'Qiraj, where the so-called Thousand-Eyed Demon C'Thun is imprisoned! The druids of the Cenarion Circle keep a close watch on what's happening there, and even the bronze dragons of the Caverns of Time dare not underestimate them.
They are working hard to maintain the seal to prevent the Zerg from breaking through the quicksand wall and sweeping across the world again.
The Time Keepers' focus is entirely on the depths of the Silithus desert; they have little energy left to concern themselves with the current conflict between the so-called Horde and the Alliance...
Far, near Antarctica, in southern Tanaris lies the Origin Forge! It's another Titan city, Uldum. To this day, no one knows what lies within... Stone giants have guarded that place for millennia, making it a forbidden zone not only for humans...
Even elves and dragons dared not venture in easily, as the Qiraji had already given them a lot of trouble.
Only a few adventurers and watchmen have remained steadfast at the walls of quicksand.
The teacher once said that Uldum, Ulduar, and Uldaman—these former Titan ruins—are definitely must-visit locations...
The progress is just too slow... The teacher scolded his apprentice for being slow, and Lorraine found the teacher long-winded. At this moment, he was a little nostalgic and hoped that someone could help him determine the other party's identity.
Being able to find effective ways to deal with danger, just like when I fought the lich, battled the werewolf, and infiltrated Dalaran... to obtain the Eye of Light and the Eye of Shadow!
The spider-like beings before them were clearly not of the Qiraji race. The Qiraji primarily lived in desert regions; to be precise, it was the Qiraji who could turn oases into deserts, and they were the symbol of the power of decay.
......
If they're not Qiraji, then they're very likely another powerful insectoid race living underground...
At the North Pole, beneath the continent of Northrend, lies the kingdom of Azjol and Niburu, the only known surviving branch of the Zerg... Their appearance differs from the Qiraji; they resemble beetles...
The specific name... is not well known to the world.
They may be called the Ainz Ooal Gown... but they are merely one of the more powerful tribes among countless strong insectoid races. In reality, there are many varieties of Ainz Ooal Gown, evolving differently in various regions...
The teacher liked to call them the "Little Strong" tribe, but Lorraine didn't know why... probably because they looked similar. As for what "Little Strong" actually meant... Lorraine couldn't understand.
Their discovery was no accident; these insectoids were no longer living beings, corrupted by the Lich King's power and transformed into undead. Xiaoqiang's spider-men, now servants of the Lich King, brought annihilation to any enemies attempting to attack him.
In particular, their king, Anub'arak, the Crypt Lord, is already a formidable force among the Lich King's right-hand men.
If the Archlich Kel'Thuzad was the Lich King's prime minister...
So the Crypt Lord 'Little Strong' is the Lich King's great general...
When the wounded Lich King Ner'zhul summoned the Death Knight Arthas back to the Frozen Throne to save him, he encountered the masters of the underground kingdom while passing through the secret passage beneath the glacier... Although the Spider Demons were quite powerful, they were still no match for the endless onslaught of the power of death and the undead army.
When Anub'arak, the most powerful Zerg warrior, fell, the kingdom of Azjol-nibru was effectively destroyed. However, the Crypt Lords, resurrected by Frostmourne, and the infected Spider Demons rose again, becoming the Lich King's hidden forces.
This legion was not only powerful and well-hidden, but even more terrifying was that the Lich King obtained the technology and equipment of the ancient kingdoms from them, along with countless documents and records, including the construction technology of the floating fortress Naxxramas, and some of the Titans' secrets.
I wonder if the Lich King Arthas knew of the existence of the Old Gods...
In Professor Lorraine's memory, the Lich King seemed to be secretly using the power of the imprisoned Old Gods to create new life... to resist the pursuit of the Burning Legion of the Dark Titan Sargeras...
Clearly, the Lich King's massive construction projects in Northrend, including the building of Icecrown Citadel, were not solely for self-preservation.
After the Lich King and Arthas merged, not only did their own strength become comparable to that of a demigod, but they also gradually broke free from the control of Kil'jaeden the Deceiver.
He has quite a few lackeys... Archlich, Frost Wyrm, Crypt Lord, Blood Demon, Undead, Vampire, Gargoyle, Harpy, Ghoul, Abomination... Proto-Dragon, Death Knight, Vrykul, Val'kyr, Death Angel, Banshee, Shadowfiend...
Not to mention the tens of thousands... ordinary skeletal warriors, zombies, and necromancers...
Little Lorraine suddenly felt a little scared.
"Won't I get struck by lightning for boasting..."
A sense of unease flashed through Lorraine's mind. Was he getting too cocky? He couldn't even handle two spider demons, yet he kept talking about challenging the Lich King! Even the Lich King feared the Titans... Sargeras, the strongest dark Titan who even the Pantheon Titans couldn't defeat... Sargeras... it seemed he wanted to fight him too.
And then there's that mysterious entity that binds the master and disciple... Lorraine constantly wants to beat it up...
Overestimating your own abilities?
Do not!
If a person has no dreams or goals, what's the difference between them and a salted fish?
Lorraine's mind raced, flashing back to all that had happened... In a blur, the spider demon, who hadn't spoken until now, gently moved a claw, tearing through the dead skin on his neck, its mandibles trembling as it drew a drop of his foul blood...
Lorraine thought her head was gone... but then she heard a response in her ear.
"Your foul-smelling blood proves to us that you didn't lie... bug. We've decided to eat you later..."
