Azeroth Shadow Trail

Chapter 988 84. You may have defeated the Dark Titan, but this is not enough to meet the challenge of raising children!

Stinky Pirates walk the muddy swamp.

Not far from him was a big six-legged crocodile lying in the muddy water, looking at the two guys walking towards it with cold, emotionless eyes.

The person next to him who is walking with a staff and suspended a few inches from the ground should not be messed with.

As a "resident" of this swamp, in Mr. Crocodile's limited memory, many of his companions died at the hands of another woman holding a staff.

So it chose its breakfast target very carefully.

The person next to that guy was walking in the muddy ground one deep and one shallow. Judging from his movements, he knew that he didn't come to the swamp often.

It looks like a good target to strike.

So Mr. Crocodile began to lurk in the mud, ready to wait for the two to come over and give them a surprise attack.

Soon.

Soon.

It's now!

"swish"

The explosive power of the six-legged crocodile is much stronger than that of the weak four-legged compatriots. When the stinky pirate approached it, the vicious predator opened its mouth and bit him.

With that movement, that posture, that speed, ordinary people will never be able to avoid this vicious blow!

This is a fatal blow that can only be delivered by top predators!

"Go!"

Then

There's no after that.

With a strange cry from the smelly pirate, Hemet's trap boots kicked the big crocodile hard on the forehead, causing the six-legged beast to twitch and fly out.

The mud that was brought up was flying around, but the pirates swayed left and right to avoid it.

He also looked up and watched Mr. Crocodile, who was looking for breakfast, draw a brilliant arc in the air, and finally crashed into a small river in the distance, splashing beautiful water.

"One more point for the Pirates! The Swamp team still has 0 points. If this continues, I will definitely win."

Bu Laike nodded in a serious manner, turned to look at the Archmage Ellan beside him, and said:

"But what's wrong with your wife? There are so many good places in this world that she doesn't go to, she insists on hiding in this rotten swamp. Is there any place in this swamp that can attract her?"

"Because this is the only area in the Kalimdor continent where the night elves have not sent sentries."

Elan explained:

"The elves hate the climate and terrain here, they never get close to it, and my Aegwynn became a little lonely after she got old, she likes to be alone and quiet without being disturbed.

Also, Dustwallow Marsh has a ley node on Kalimdor's east coast, and spellcasters will feel comfortable staying there. "

"Just because of that, and not because Ms. Aegwynn has developed social phobia?"

Bu Laike looked around and joked:

"Look at this ghost place, it's a place of good news for people with social phobias, you don't have to go out here for a whole year, and there won't be a single visitor in ten years.

Except for the fact that the environment is a little bit worse, people with social phobia like me are moved.

However, this should not be a good place to raise children, right?

Going further south, living in Shimmering Plains is better than here, at least it is close to the largest city in southern Kalimdor. "

"Gadgetzan? The goblin city is too noisy."

Elan, who was floating on the swamp, shook his head and said:

"Shuiyue Manor is ahead, I think Aegwynn should have spotted us, let's go, let's go there."

The archmage said that he was not in a hurry, but seeing his speeding up and flashing across the swamp, it was clear that the spirit spellcaster must have some expectations in his heart.

Counting the time he was trapped in Karazhan and going crazy, he hadn't seen his wife in a sane state for many years.

The eagerness of Laike was understandable, so he didn't say any more strange words, and speeded up to follow. Hemet's Trap Boots are as good as ever.

Especially in terrain like swamps.

Although it still brings out mud with one step, it will not slow down Laike's speed to an unbearable level.

After crossing a swamp with complex terrain, the two quickly saw a small manor hidden among the redwood trees in the mud swamp. This is the place where Aegwynn lives in seclusion. It has to be said that this place is still very mysterious.

It is surrounded by swamps, and ordinary people cannot enter at all.

A large flat platform was built with soil and trees around the manor, and all the buildings were on it. There were low walls made of trees, and lanterns were hung on the front and back.

The faint white light illuminates the surrounding area, which is a rare bright light source in this dark swamp. Aegwynn also built a road, extending from the front of the manor all the way to the swamp.

She even has flowers.

In the open space just outside the manor, there were a large number of colorful flowers gathered there. The fragrance of these flowers was strong and tangy, which just neutralized the stench of the swamp here.

The rooms in the manor are small in size, but they are very delicately decorated.

The walls are built of red bricks, and gray and white gargoyle sculptures are erected around the black eaves, with eyes made of rubies looking in all directions.

In other places, the pirates would definitely be treated as ordinary sculptures, but this is the manor of a powerful witch, and Laike has enough reasons to suspect that the stone statues should all be moving.

This means that any uninvited "guest" has to pass through the line of defense composed of these six gargoyles before meeting Aegwynn. Just look at their specially shaped sharp claws and obsidian-decorated teeth. Not good.

"Hey, you two! Stay away."

As the two walked towards the stairs of the manor, a cold voice came from above. Bu Laike looked up, Huo, good guy, the master came out to greet him.

However, Ms. Aegwynn's dress today is a little strange.

She didn't wear a wizard's robe, nor did she bring a staff. Instead, she wore a well-fitting lady's hunting suit, a black shirt with a green vest, breeches and boots, and a belt full of bronze bullets. A goblin shotgun.

That caliber is enough to kill a six-legged crocodile with one shot.

The white-haired witch stretched out her hand and pushed her hunting cap, glanced at Bo Laike, then at Elan, a gleam of joy flashed in her eyes, but it quickly returned to indifference.

She pointed at the barrels of the two guests and said:

"See you again, let's go back now! Don't disturb my secluded life. I'm going to hunt crocodiles in the afternoon. The crocodiles around here have become a little rampant recently."

"Cool, Gunslinger Witch."

The smelly pirate whistled and winked at Elan again, meaning:

Your wife is awesome.

Elan pretended not to see Bo Laike's expression that deserved a beating, he shrugged his shoulders, ignored Aegwynn's indifference, and said in the same calm voice:

"I'm here to see the kids."

"You can watch it if you want?"

Aegwynn grabbed the gun and said in an unhappy tone:

"It's been so long, I haven't written a letter, I haven't sent a magical message, I haven't even brought a gift, and I haven't notified you when I come here, the child will call her mother but she hasn't seen her father yet.

A stinky man like you still has the face to step into my house? "

"I'm going to explain this, Ms. Aegwynn."

Bu Laike hastily interjected:

"Mr. Elan is also very busy, since he has a terrible superior, follows the ghost ship around all day, and is also responsible for the teaching work of Nazaras College, he is already under a lot of pressure.

Men, always have to be a little bit enterprising.

as for gifts

Who said he didn't bring a gift, he definitely did. "

As he spoke, the pirate winked at Elan, took out a shimmering stone from his bag, and offered it with both hands.

Aegwynn blinked, looked at the stone in Bo Laike's hand, and said:

"Is this the Stone of the Tide? The one from the Gurubashi ruins in Stranglethorn Vale? How dare you bring such a cursed thing into my manor, you bloody pirate?"

Aegwynn put his finger on the trigger of the rifle with a frown, and scolded Boo Laike:

"I used to try to collect things like this, but now I've given up on the hobby, don't you know there are children here? Damn, I should just shoot your head full of dark wisdom!"

"Shhhhh, listen!"

Bu Laike suddenly raised his finger, pointed to the manor, and said:

"The great Lord Medivh, or His Excellency Med'an, is crying."

"Ok?"

Aegwynn, who was pretending to be cool, changed his face, glared at Elan, and disappeared at the gate of the manor, leaving only a shotgun in place.

Elan also flashed and disappeared in place.

Bo Laike shrugged, whistled, and tossed the tide stone in his hand up and down. Since Aegwynn didn't want it, he returned it.

Speaking of which, this is the favorite of the little star.

However, Her Royal Highness the Blue Dragon Princess has a lot of good things in her hands. Since Bu Laike borrowed it last time to study the curse on this thing, she has not seen her wanting to go back.

Probably Little Xingxing himself forgot about it.

But with the current strength of the stinky pirate, this tidal stone that can summon a small tide and disturb the soul is not very useful.

He snapped his fingers, and a huge blue water elemental quickly appeared from the muddy water beside him. This guy had a completely different body from other water elementals.

The upper body is covered with ice, and there is a head shaped into a crown.

The torrents on his body were also shaped by the ice into a handsome set of ice blade armor, and he was holding a cold ice spear in his hand. He was one of the two legendary water elemental guards of His Excellency the Earl of the Ocean.

"Aquilian, my loyal warrior, go now to cruise the swamp."

Bu Laike commanded his water elemental guards:

"Help Ms. Aegwynn clean up the crocodiles around them. They seem to have voodoo residue on them. There is no natural reason for gathering here. Someone is using them behind the scenes.

The target is undoubtedly the orphans and widows in this manor, they are really vicious!

go Go.

In my name, catch the mastermind behind the scenes, and wait for me to come back for interrogation. Be gentle, there are children here, don't disturb this little guy who is destined to have a career in the future. "

The water elemental lord nodded, and under the watchful eyes of the pirates, it turned and dived into the swamp, dissipating in a torrent.

But Laike clapped his hands, swaggered up the steps in front of the manor, and looked around again. Judging from his "superficial" knowledge of the arcane school, there are at least four magic locks covering the manor here.

It seems that Ms. Aegwynn really is not old. Although she has lost most of her spellcasting ability because she wanted to save her son, her insight and knowledge are still there.

She's still as deadly as ever, just a lot less sharp.

The smelly pirate walked briskly into the house. The fireplace was burning, making the room full of books and children's toys very warm.

When he came, he saw Aegwynn sitting on the sofa with a crying child in his arms, while His Excellency Elan stood aside, looking tenderly at the child in his wife's arms.

"Hey, you, smelly pirate."

While shaking his arms, Aegwynn comforted the child, and instructed without raising his head:

"The baby bottle is next to you, take it and rinse it off, the kitchen has prepared elemental water and northern seal milk essence, go make some milk.

The scale of elemental water is 140, add four and a half tablespoons of milk essence, the temperature should be moderate, neither too hot nor too cold, this should not trouble you.

By the way, I took the child's diapers to wash, brought the washed ones, and hung them outside the kitchen. "

"Hey, Ms. Aegwynn, don't go too far!"

Bu Laike's anger soared suddenly, and he said with his arms akimbo:

"You asked me to be a legendary pirate, a distinguished guest of the Hall of Valor, and a close friend of the Lord of War to help your child make milk powder and wash diapers? What do you think of me?"

"Ok?"

Aegwynn and Elan looked up at the same time, looking at him with dark eyes.

Both of them said at the same time:

"What? Can't you?"

"I mean"

The smelly pirate still maintained that angry expression, and he said outrageously:

"How can you be so unprofessional? Just ask someone who has never seen a child to do things for you! I'm not saying you, Ms. Aegwynn, you may have defeated the Dark Titan, but you see that the child's technique is too bad.

Look at the way you hug him, it looks like a layman.

I wonder how the poor kid got so big.

I want to recommend to you a professional maid who is absolutely reliable to help you take care of the children. Seriously, she has been tried and tested on my ship and is already my most reliable chief maid.

She even raised an orc baby herself! That orc will be able to do great things in the future, I think she has enough qualifications and qualifications to help you take care of your child.

Look, the baby is peeing, and you haven't changed his diaper yet.

Clumsy, how can this go on?

Just wait a moment, I will send my dear maid Taresa here, she will definitely reassure you a lot. "

"Oh, I forgot little Taresa, too."

Archmage Elan patted his forehead and said:

"Let me go, there are professional maids with fast hands and feet, and it will indeed save a lot of trouble."

After finishing speaking, the great ghost mage tapped the ground with his staff, and was about to send it out. Aegwynn called him again. She glanced at the crying child in her arms, touched her dark circles again, and sighed .

Some said sullenly:

"Bring Moros, too, he was the one who saw Medivh. Laike, I know Moros is serving you now, but I need him to come back and help me.

You're right, watching kids during this time has drained me.

I underestimated the difficulty of this job, I really can't handle it by myself. "

"It's okay, Moros doesn't like being an assassin very much, and now he is in charge of logistics."

Bu Laike looked at the various furnishings in the house, as well as the unwashed dishes in the kitchen. He rubbed his chin and said:

"Your manor is really messy, and you really need a professional butler to help. I can second Moros to you, but his affiliation is still among the uncrowned.

When Mr. McDivine turns ten, he will return to work with me.

And the salary and remuneration during this period will be paid by you and your husband, and you will also give me a part of the loan every month. Is it okay? "
