Today is Beetle Festival, so let's talk about the zerg replica and the god they worship, the ancient god Cthun.
Cthun
Source of the name: The honorific title of the servant
Prototype: Monsters from the Cthulhu myth
Appears in the game as the final boss of the Team Quest, the Temple of Angela.
Ancient gods ravaged
Tens of thousands of years ago, the Ancient Gods descended on Azeroth from the Twisted Void.
They contaminated the material of Azeroth, spawning monsters, the Faceless, and the ancient wormmen of Azeroth, turning them into subunits.
With the help of these two kinds of minions, the Ancient Gods continued to expand their territory and form the Dark Empire.
The Titans descend
When the Titans arrived in Azeroth, the ancient gods wrapped the surface of the planet like a layer of carrion.
So they all went to Azeroth to overthrow the Dark Empire.
The Titans created powerful Titan creations, imprisoning the Yaki Wormmen and the Ancient Gods.
One of the ancient gods, Cthun, was eventually sealed underground, and the Guardian Lydon (one of the leaders of the Titan creations) built a prison around it— the later mighty Angela.
Troll Wars
Tens of millions of years later, powerful races, trolls, will be all over Azeroth.
During a ritual ritual, some of the Zandalar troll sacrifices accidentally awaken the sleeping Aqui-Worms and their Kracis leader, Kichikos, when the Dark Empire collapsed.
The Bugsters engage in a protracted war with the trolls, and the trolls defeat the Bugmen.
Mutations
The Aqui Empire split in three directions – Hylisus (later the Ghras), Northend (later the Adra Nirub Spider Demon), and Pandaria (later the Mantis Demon).
Some of the Zerg flee southwest to Angela, enslaving the Guardians' guards who remain in Angela Prison, Anubisas (also a Titan creation, close relative of Towell of O'Danm)
Time passed, and the Cthun imprisoned here had long since manipulated this powerful and evil race, and under the influence of the ancient gods, these Yaki worm people became a new race: the Zerg people.
Battle of Quicksand
Thousands of years later, the Night Elves unexpectedly woke up Cthun.
Its worm people began to sweep through Hylisus, and the entire Hillissus was engulfed by a tide of worms in an instant.
The Night Elf Grand Druid Vandal Deer Helmet's son, Vastann, was killed by an ambush by the Zerg, and the Night Elf Legion retreated eastward, through the Crater of Angero, to the edge of the Tanalis Desert– The Cave of Time (territory of the Bronze Dragon Legion)
Vandal asked Anacross (son of the Bronze Dragon King Nozdom and the leader of the Time Cave at the time) for help.
Wall of Beetles
After the Bronze Dragon and the Elves cooperated and pulled their crotches, the Bronze Dragon began to shake people again- the Green Dragon Legion, the Red Dragon Legion, and the Blue Dragon Legion.
Eventually, the Druids and the Legion of Dragons summoned a huge barrier, the Wall of Scarabs, completely sealing off their Zerg people, and the Battle of Quicksand came to an end.
Anaclos made two sacred relics, the Beetle Gong and the Quicksand Staff, which were used to open the Wall of the Scarab later.
Door opening task
Hundreds of years later, angela's gates opened again, and in order to stop the dragons from interfering, Cthun spread a spell to control all dragons near him.
In World of Warcraft version 1.9, open the Beetle's Gate with a series of donation missions and elite missions, allowing you to enter two large team quests, the Temple of Angela and the Ruins of Angela.
The leader who leads the opening of the Beetle Gate receives a precious Beetle Mount.
Since the spells against dragons are ineffective against mortals, only the Foot men and elves can pass through Angela to Cthun's cage and eventually defeat the ancient god Cthun.
Temple of Angela
In the Battle of Quicksand, the Blue Dragon Aregos, the Green Dragon MyrinSela, and the Bronze Dragon sacrifice themselves to create the Wall of Beetles.
Angela's mysterious master (Cthun) orders Viklor and Viknilas (Angela Twin Emperors) to create moam, the obsidian destroyer, from volcanic stone.
Cthun trapped three sacrificial dragons, drawing on and contaminating the dragons' magical powers for his own use— infusing Moam with mysterious powers no less powerful than the Titan Guardians.
Ruins of Angela
In the war with the Dragon, an Anubissas-Osrian was rewarded for his meritorious service.
After a war, Ausrian, who was on the verge of death, was rescued by the ancient gods and became invincible, but had to rely on crystals to maintain his life, and once he left the crystals, he would soon die.
So he was called by his people, the Scarless One, indicating that he was a hero who could not be used in the sword.
Fission of the Earth team quest - Twilight Fortress
As the Alliance and Horde are tormented by the Lich King and the Legion of Scourge, the Twilight Hammer Sect founded by the Ogre Gugar attempts to awaken their new master: Cthun.
The power of the ancient gods distorted the ogre's body, and Gugar became more and more similar to his ancient god master (with long eyes on his body)
The official novel plot – The Last Guardian
In the ruins of Angela, Medrian (the son of Mediven and Garona, a mixture of orcs, Deryni, humans, and Titans) used the power of the Neo-Tyrethic Council to destroy the Temple of Angela, and Gugar failed to resurrect the ancient gods.
However, whether Cthun will ever be reborn in the world of Azeroth, no one will know.
