"Snap!" A crisp snap of a finger.
A single gesture from this little human, whom Loken had never paid any attention to, caused a huge change in the situation.
In the sky surrounded by the circular arcades, in the gaps between the giant pillars, and on the floor of the temple that was covered in hexagonal patterns, layers of yellow light appeared.
These lights seemed to have a life of their own as they went straight for Loken the moment they appeared.
Any Guardian would have a passive talent called [Titan's Blessing].
This was a blessing that isolated elemental and physical attacks from the modern world from the perspective of the laws. This kind of blessing was equivalent to a huge increase in resistance for no reason, and could only be described as insane.
A mere yellow earth elemental attack that landed on Loken's body was of no use at all, but what appeared now was a ferocious attack that contained almost half of Northrend's earth elemental power. It was hard to imagine that this kind of ultra-high purity earth elemental energy was released by a little human like Duque.
For a moment, Loken saw an illusion — the earth suddenly surged and surged, and countless grains of sand formed a sand wave that connected the sky and the earth.
This raging wave of earth elemental energy directly drowned Loken's huge body, and all that was left was a scream.
"Impossible …" The one who let out a whisper was Torim, who had just escaped death.
The surging wave of earth elemental energy had smashed Loken's body out of the Church of Wisdom in just a few steps. Unfortunately, as Loken waved his arm, the Church of Wisdom suddenly blossomed with a blazing red flame, counteracting most of the yellow light.
"Who … Who are you!?" Loken's face, which had always been full of confidence, finally revealed a horrified expression.
Duque's body fell backwards, and a huge existence seemed to 'grow' out from beneath his feet, supporting Duque's entire body.
Loken immediately noticed that the thing that was supporting Duque was a huge palm that was wrapped in flames.
What made his expression change even more was that there was an existence that was frantically tearing at the protective barrier of the Church of Wisdom, forcefully shoving in power that did not belong to the entire temple.
"In the name of the Wisdom King, I reject your entry!" Loken slammed his fist on the ground.
Unexpectedly, the smiling human disappeared and was replaced by a male human wearing a white mage robe with blue edges. He held a drumstick in his left hand and a long, strange sword in the shape of a long spiral nail in his right.
The two of them had similar but different appearances.
This time, the existence with the appearance of a human that came later released a nearly overwhelming and terrifying Divine Power.
The newcomer was none other than Duque himself!
"In the name of the Guardian of Azeroth, I reject your rejection!" Duque tapped his staff, and the Divine Artifact Atiesh's space-breaking power instantly erupted.
The three illusory black crows let out sharp caws.
The screams were not only unpleasant to the ears, but in Loken's ears, it was worse than a death knell. This was because when the crow's caw spread out, the spatial barriers he had set up in the Wisdom Temple started to collapse one by one.
As the force restraining the intruder weakened, the flaming arm that supported Duque began to extend longer and longer. It was obvious that the owner of the flaming arm was crawling out of the portal that opened on the floor of the temple.
"No!" Loken raised his ten thick fingers and gestured with his spell in an attempt to mend the spatial barriers of the temple.
Just then, a violent tremor came from the bottom of the temple.
Thud — Thud — Thud — The deep and rhythmic bombardment seemed to be shaking the foundations of the temple.
"Impossible, unless it's …" Loken finally cried out in shock.
A mysterious smile appeared on Duque's face. "Yes, the 'unless' you mentioned is here."
Thud! Thud! Thud! At this point, there was no longer a need for special detection or perception. As long as one was not blind, they could see that a giant of the same size as Loken was climbing up the steep mountain wall below the temple.
Under normal circumstances, there would be no place for a giant to step on the mountain wall.
The newcomer obviously had a better idea. Every move he made would summon the earth element within the mountain wall. The earth responded to his call, arching out handrails and stepping stones for the giant to stand on.
The giant seemed to be moving very slowly, but the handrails and stepping stones on the mountain wall would move on their own, as if the giant was taking an elevator.
No!
This should be some kind of special skill similar to [Ground Shrink], right?
Loken's golden face turned pale. As a senior among the guardians of Azeroth, he naturally knew who the newcomer was. He finally squeezed out a name from between his teeth. "Alkafon!"
Around the temple, the cold wind howled.
On the huge floating corridor that connected the Wisdom Temple and the stone hall, countless ice and snow were gathering. A giant that was ten stories tall was forming out of thin air.
Suddenly, thunder rumbled in the sky.
A lightning giant appeared out of nowhere and began to descend slowly into the temple …
"No! Impossible! Who are you? How can you command the four guardians of Alkafon? "Loken was furious as he glared at the smiling Duque.
At this moment, Duque was sitting on the shoulder of the fire giant that rose from the portal on the floor of the temple.
That's right, the four guardians of the treasury — Alkafon, Emarron, Coralon, and Turawan.
Duque put away the [Song of Light and Shadow] and raised his right index finger, shaking it in a smug manner.
"Stain! Stain! Stain! Stain! I only told the four guardians that Odour's guardian, Loken, had been corrupted by Yogg-Saron. He went against the Titan's orders and started to harm his comrades … Then, I shared what I saw with them … "
At this point, the biggest secret of Alkafon's treasury was finally revealed.
The Four Great Guardians weren't guarding any equipment at all, but elements!
As the four elements that formed the world, they had irreplaceable roles.
The status of the four guardians was below Odour's guardian and the Pentashade Guardian Dragon. The four of them played a supporting role. They would provide the guardians with enough elements to support the operations of Odour and the Dragon's Slumber Temple.
But on the other hand, the four guardians of the treasury had similar duties as the guardians.
If the laboratory left behind by the Titan collapsed, or if the guardian ancient god was in danger of breaking free, the four guardians had the same duty to eliminate the danger.
Since it was proven that Loken had betrayed the Titan, there was nothing wrong with the four guardians jumping out to do their work.
Of course, under normal circumstances, the four of them would never know what happened to Odour. After all, Loken had always been very secretive and beautiful.
But Duque had tipped them off!
