Chapter 741 Chaos
Chapter 741 Chaos
Yuntian secretly breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that he had successfully kept the secret. However, he had no idea that the moment Zoval's soul was sucked into Frostmourne, the secret had already been known to almost everyone.
Zoval itself possesses a special energy that is directly connected to the other world. The reason why the fake Zoval imprisoned the real Zoval was to avoid breaking this connection. However, Yuntian's sudden intervention broke this delicate balance, causing all forces in the other world to notice this change.
For a moment, all the forces in the other world had different ideas about this sudden situation. Some were shocked, some were terrified, and some began to think about how to deal with this existence that could kill Zoval.
At this time, Yuntian was completely unaware of the chain reaction he had triggered. His attention was completely focused on the star energy extractor below, wondering if there was a way to shut it down.
"System, where is the control console of this star energy extractor?" Yuntian asked the system.
The system quickly gave an answer: "No results found."
"Logically, it shouldn't be too far away. Is there any other way to control the star energy extractor?" Yun asked suspiciously, seeming very surprised by the situation.
The system's voice sounded in his mind: "I don't know about this. This thing belongs to the Titan structure, and my understanding of it is quite limited."
Yun couldn't help but frown, thinking about the reason. He originally thought that there was some close connection between the Star Energy Extractor and the Elune Statue, but now it seems that this is not the case.
"Okay, then do you have any suggestions? Do you still recommend that I go to that Elune statue?" Yun continued to ask, hoping that the system could give him some new ideas.
The system was silent for a moment before replying, "There is a portal in the back. Although it is closed, I have a way to open it. Moreover, according to my analysis just now, although most of the star energy extracted here has been transmitted to the other world, a considerable part of it has still been sent to the closed portal. Therefore, I suggest that you go over and take a look. You may find some useful clues."
Yun nodded, thinking that the system's suggestion made sense. Since he had come here, he might as well continue to follow this clue, and perhaps he would get something unexpected.
"Hmm?" Yun asked in confusion. He stared at the portal in front of him, feeling puzzled. The portal was clearly closed, but why could it still transmit energy?
Yun was no stranger to this portal, as he had passed through it many times in the game. In the game setting, this portal led to the Mine of Saron and eventually to the Hall of Reflection, where the Lich King stored Frostmourne.
However, reality is very different from the game. The appearance of the Soul Forge has already surprised Yun, and now this portal is actually still flowing with energy, which is really incredible. Could it be that there is some unknown secret hidden behind this portal?
"Okay, try to open the portal." Yun decided to find out. He was curious about where this portal could lead to.
Yun slowly walked to the portal, and a strong sense of depression and desolation came over him. The portal looked like it had gone through many vicissitudes, and the traces of time had left deep marks on it.
Yun couldn't help but start to wonder if this portal was really built by Ner'zhul. Judging from its dilapidated and weathered state, this door seemed to have existed for thousands of years.
"System, can you determine the age of this portal?" Yun asked curiously while standing in front of the portal.
The system's voice sounded in his mind: "It's impossible to tell."
Yun frowned and continued to ask: "Then can you roughly determine where this portal is teleporting to?"
The system was silent for a moment, then replied, "It's impossible to tell. This is a characteristic of Titan architecture, but the teleportation distance shouldn't be too far. It could be Ulduar."
Hearing the system's answer, Yun suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart. He stared at the portal and felt that its style was obviously similar to that of Maldraxxus, and could even be said to be a typical undead style. However, the system judged it to be a Titan building, which made Yun very confused.
Yun couldn't help but doubt the system's judgment. After all, even he could see that the style of the portal didn't match the Titan architecture. But he didn't dwell on it too much, thinking that maybe the system had its own basis for judgment.
So, Yun followed the system's instructions and slowly placed his hand on the portal. In an instant, a powerful energy surged out of his body like a torrent, flowing continuously towards the portal.
"Click! Click! Click!" With a series of old and harsh sounds, some runes on the portal began to flicker and emit a faint light. At the same time, some rubble was shaken off, as if this ancient portal was waking up.
What was even more surprising was that the runes that were originally still began to twist and rearrange themselves in a way that Yun had never seen before. This scene made Yun's eyes widen, and he was completely attracted by this strange phenomenon.
"System? What's going on? Why did these runes suddenly change?" Yun asked worriedly, his brows tightly furrowed and his heart filled with uneasiness.
The system didn't seem to notice Yun's worries. It explained in a calm tone, "This is actually a portal from ancient times. It is slightly different from the portals we have today. However, with a few minor adjustments, it can be used normally."
After listening to the system's explanation, Yun's doubts not only did not decrease, but became even stronger. He stared at the portal in front of him with wide eyes in disbelief, muttering to himself: "This is clearly the portal of the dead, where is the ancient portal? Why does the system keep making mistakes today? This is not like its usual behavior."
Yun began to wonder if the system had any problems or was infected by a virus. After all, the system had always been very reliable and had never had such an error.
However, just as Yun was daydreaming, the runes on the portal were lit up one by one, and the originally dim portal gradually emitted a faint white light. Then, a white vortex slowly formed in the center of the portal, and it became larger and clearer.
Yun watched all this in amazement, and he realized that the portal had been successfully opened by the system. Although he still had doubts in his heart, he decided to trust the system.
"System, is it really okay for me to enter here?" Yun suddenly asked, with a hint of uncertainty in his voice.
The system's answer was still concise and affirmative: "Don't worry, I have checked this place carefully, and there is absolutely no problem. You can go in without worry."
Yun felt surprised and hesitated for a moment, but finally stepped into the door. According to common sense, he should be teleported to another place immediately, but this was not the case.
The moment Yun stepped into the door, he suddenly felt dizzy, as if the whole world was spinning. His vision became blurry, and the surrounding environment became extremely chaotic. Everything was distorted, making him feel extremely scared and uneasy.
"System, system, what is going on?" Yun's voice revealed obvious fear. He desperately called out to the system, hoping to get a reasonable explanation.
However, the system's response made Yun completely horrified.
"Thank you for your company along the way. Have a safe journey." The system's voice sounded in Yun's ears. It was not the purely mechanical answer he was familiar with, but words filled with certain emotions.
Yun's heartbeat suddenly accelerated, and various thoughts flashed through his mind. In the past, the system's answers were purely mechanical answers such as "unable to answer, unable to detect", but what did the system say just now? This could not be a normal response from the system!
Yun's body began to tremble uncontrollably, and he finally realized the seriousness of the problem. Could it be that the system was controlled by someone else? And this controller deliberately set this trap to lure him in?
But who on earth has the ability to control the system? Yun quickly recalled everything related to the system. He had never revealed the existence of the system to anyone, and no one except Flor knew this secret.
"Could it be Flor?" Yun had a flash of doubt in his mind, but he quickly shook his head and denied the idea. Although Flor knew the existence of the system, he had no reason to treat himself like this.
So, who is behind all this? Yun's heart was filled with fear and confusion, and he felt as if he was trapped in a huge mystery.
Yun tried to open the system, but there was no response. He tried to use a skill, but there was no response. He tried to open his backpack and take out his equipment, but there was still no response.
"System? System, what's wrong with you?" Yun shouted anxiously. His voice echoed in the empty space, but he received no response.
"System, system, please tell me one last time, how can I get out?" Yun's voice trembled slightly, his heart was filled with fear and helplessness.
"System, system, please tell me one last time, where is this?" Yun's voice was getting louder and louder, and his emotions were getting more and more agitated, as if he wanted to shout out all his fears.
Yun had been in this world for a long time, and he had thought of various possible ways to die, such as being killed by a powerful enemy, or being sealed and imprisoned like an ancient god. However, he never expected that he would end up like this - trapped in a completely unfamiliar space, without the help of the system, and without any available skills.
Yun felt like a headless fly, bumping into walls everywhere but unable to find a way out. He began to wonder if he was really going to be trapped here and never be able to escape.
At this moment, Yun's stomach suddenly made a rumbling sound, reminding him that he had not eaten for a long time. The feeling of hunger came like a tide, making his body weak and powerless.
"No way, I didn't die of being trapped, but of starvation?" This terrible thought flashed through Yun's mind, and his face turned as pale as paper. Starving to death? What a terrible way to die!
The more Yun thought about it, the more scared he became. He felt that his fate was already determined and no matter how hard he struggled, he could not change it. His heart was filled with despair, as if the whole world was moving away from him.
A sense of fear surged in Yun's heart, and he realized that he was in an extremely chaotic world. It was not completely dark here, but everything was blurry and unclear, making it impossible to distinguish specific objects.
Yun decided to try to explore the world, and he took cautious steps in all directions. Every step was full of uncertainty, because no matter where he went, the surrounding scenery was the same distortion and chaos.
Suddenly, a thought flashed through Yun's mind: "Hmm? Are these distorted scenes because I came here through a portal?" He remembered the real portal. Although the system changed some runes, the portal itself existed.
Yun continued to reason, "The system can only change the location of the portal at most, so my current location should be somewhere between the portals. These distorted effects may be a distortion of the real world. Only through this distortion can the purpose of teleportation be achieved."
Thinking of this, Yun calmed down a little. He began to concentrate on observing the distortions around him, hoping to find some clues from these seemingly garbled scenes to confirm his guess.
Yun was also a little helpless. It seemed that the chaos around him was changing. Originally, Yun felt that there was something black around him. Yun thought that this was the soul furnace from before, but then it began to turn green, a emerald green color. There was obviously a change here. Before Yun could figure out what was going on, it turned yellow, and then purple. In just a short while, it changed into several colors.
Yun had given up a little. He had always been a reckless man. How could such a brain-intensive thing suit him? He was only suited to hacking and killing.
At the same time, Yun felt a little regretful. Frostmourne, he hadn't used it for a long time, but he still killed Zorval with this one use. How awesome! He still couldn't believe that he really killed Zorval. Imagine the sheep's head on Frostmourne and the string of runes on it, which he would never be able to get again. Yun sighed and shook his head.
"Hmm?" Yun suddenly opened his eyes, and some blue and cyan appeared in the chaos in front of him. These colors appeared very abruptly, and were obviously different from the surrounding chaos, and... and these colors formed a shape... the shape of Frostmourne.
Yun stared blankly ahead, and then the blue and cyan colors gradually blended into the surrounding chaos.
