Azeroth Shadow Trail

Chapter 1193 289. The Swarm·Yaki Civil War - [Seeking Monthly Ticket 23]

Bu Laike worked hard as a stonemason on Sunny Peak, but the war in Pandaria did not stop because of the absence of stinky pirates.

While his treasure hunt was going on in the last few days, the battle preparations on the Mantis Plateau outside the Serpent's Spine and the Dread Wastes were rapidly escalating, and those "reinforcements" from beyond the mist arrived one after another.

On the land outside Niuzao Temple, with the casters of the Nagfar as the main body, with the acquiescence of the supreme gods, several portals to the outside world are operating.

The centaur untouchable cannon fodder from the desolate land appeared as mercenaries with crude equipment. These barbarians who have not yet escaped the barbarism do not hate war.

On the contrary, they were all in high spirits.

It can not only satisfy their barbaric desire to plunder and fight, but also exchange enough food for the newly established Maraudine centaur court and their family as a participant in the war. This transaction makes the centaurs very satisfied.

Over the course of three days, thousands of centaurs were sent to the Townlong Plateau to use their super-fast mobility to help the pandaren clear the land of the mantid remnants.

There are also some remnant fighters from the three extinct clans, who were sent to the more dangerous fear wasteland, where they carried out hunting operations.

Well, it's basically the same as sending them to their deaths to attract the mantid's attention and give the pandaren time to deploy their troops.

Of course, such cruel orders cannot be made by pandaren. They all came from the think tank of the naval commander Ms. Jaina, and they were specially requested by the centaur royal court.

The elders and prophets of the Maraudine clan obviously wanted to use up the pandaren's war to consume all the remnants of the three major clans. Then give them the name of "Warriors", so as to completely bury the three extinct clans in history.

It seems that the "political advisor" sent by the Uncrowned to the centaur, General Moore, who did not want to disclose his name, is also working very hard.

This will definitely make Bo Laike very happy.

In addition to the plentiful and useful centaur fodder, the Shado-Pan employ other warriors from undead pirates.

Warsong orcs, Blackrock Mountain orcs as well as Grimtotem tauren and warlike Bloodtotem staghorn bull warriors. These guys have a lot of ingredients, but one thing they have in common is that they are all good at playing.

Especially after receiving the blessing of the earth from the Mother of Stone, the destructive power of these knife-handled warriors has been improved again.

They are not cannon fodder that can be consumed casually like centaurs. They are elite sharp-knife forces. They were entrusted with important tasks as soon as they came here. base.

The most capable Warsong orcs were transferred to the Pass of the Setting Sun to cooperate with the defenders of the Serpent's Spine against the elite army of the Klaxxi Council of the Mantid.

According to the battle reports they sent back, that warlike lunatic Grom hacked to death a mantid hero who claimed to be "The Unscathed" last night.

Grom is said to be very pleased with his new opponent.

He had already let go of his bold words at the Pass of the Setting Sun that he wanted to hack all the heroes of the mantid to death with his own hands to express his "respect" for good fighters.

This ferocious performance also made the masters of the Shado-Pan sect begin to secretly re-evaluate the combat effectiveness outside the fog.

Zhu Taran originally wanted to go to the Setting Sun Pass to sit in charge, but was stopped by Fen Na and a group of think tanks.

Nominally, the battle in the Dread Wastes required him more.

In fact, he was afraid that Zhu Taran's passing would trigger Grom's fighting frenzy. If that damned bastard warrior couldn't hold back and hacked Zhu Taran to death, then things would be troublesome.

At this time, in the captain's room of the Nagfar, the commander-in-chief and her think tanks are discussing and confirming the next action.

Just now, the Faceless Assassin under the command of Red-haired Jack sent the latest battle report. It is said that the vanguard army of the great queen of the mantid, Sheksiel, has left the Palace of Heart of Fear and is heading towards the border of the Mantis Plateau.

This represents the intention of the mantid to take the initiative to fight.

And the captain's cabin of Bu Laike has also been temporarily used as the commander Jaina's combat command room. Even the big round bed beloved by the stinky pirates has been moved to other cabins, and now there is a huge battlefield map there.

Mathias Shaw, one of the think tanks, also returned yesterday. His complexion was surprisingly good. In addition to his assassin attire, he also wore a beautiful crane feather cloak.

At this time, Shaw is in front of the map, combining the latest situation and Jaina talking about the current situation and how to deal with it.

Little Jaina knew that she was inexperienced, so she listened carefully to Shaw's narration, and used her superb IQ to understand the war proposals put forward by Shaw and others.

That posture is the same as the serious posture when learning magic from a teacher.

The elite recruited by Laike from the Uncrowned served as the confidential secretary of the Admiral of the Navy. They kept collecting the latest information, sorted it out and submitted it to the Admiral for reference.

With the assistance of the sages of the Golden Lotus Sect, the forces of the Lorewalkers and the Jade Lotus Gang in Pandaria were integrated, so that little Jaina could learn about the progress of the war at the fastest speed without having to step out of the captain's room.

After several days of adaptation, Commander Jaina has begun to get used to this mode of operation. The high efficiency that the Uncrowned has been adhering to since its establishment has given the little mage a pair of eyes that can see into the war.

"boom"

The door of the captain's room was pushed open, and Zhu Taran walked in. Seeing him coming in, Shaw, who was explaining the military situation to Jaina, stopped, and the little mage also turned to look at head Zhu.

The sudden appearance of the leader of the Shado-Pan and Pandaren monks must be something important.

"Time is urgent, so I won't exchange pleasantries."

Zhu Taran glanced at the busy and orderly command room, he nodded, and then whispered to Jaina:

"During the patrolling of the coast, the Knights of the Cloud Serpent discovered something very worrying on Shanze Island, far away from the mainland, and they reported it to me.

I'm here to ask, is the 'stuff' on that island also part of the 'military aid' we buy from you? "

"I wish the master!"

Shalton frowned, and said in a deep voice:

"Shanze Island is a restricted area marked in advance! Although we are allies now, the inspection of the Cloud Serpent Knights should not set foot there! You have violated our agreement."

"We admit our mistake."

Zhu Taran shrugged, he stared at Xiao Er and Jaina, and said:

"But I have to know what's on that island...and how it's going to affect Pandaria? The Pandaren knight in charge of scouting just took a look from high above and was terrified.

His incoherent description made me feel the seriousness of the matter.

The serpent knights are not afraid of the mantid, but are terrified by our 'secret weapon'.

I find this very abnormal. "

"I can only tell you that those things will be destroyed after the war, and their existence will not have any impact on Pandaria's ecology."

Xiao Er still replied indifferently in the tone of an intelligence worker:

"We chose to arrange them on islands far away from the mainland, which already represents our prudence. I wish you don't have to ask too much, their existence is not harmful to you.

They were born for this war. "

"Shanze Island originally had a force composed of nearly a thousand mogu and their lizardmen servants."

Zhu Taran responded in a serious tone that did not give in:

"In less than three days, there is no living person there! Then you tell me that the creatures that are multiplying at an alarming rate will not affect Pandaria?

According to my estimation, by midnight tomorrow at the latest, their number will reach the limit that Shanze Island can bear.

Mr. Shaw, think about it differently.

If something like that appears in your Stormwind Kingdom, can you still make a guarantee so calmly? I don't think my concerns are unfounded.

You want me to let go of this worry, you have to let me know more. "

Shoal didn't want to answer Zhu Taran's request, but he is not the decision maker now, thinking of Bu Laike's advice to him, the master assassin looked at the little Jaina next to him.

He said:

"Then, the decision is in your hands, Commander-in-Chief, what kind of response will you make to our allies' rude demands?"

Little Jaina showed a helpless expression.

She stroked her fair hair and said:

"I also really want to reject Zhu Taran's request to head the sect, I trust General Liresa who is in charge there, but the problem is, I don't know what's there.

In the documents you submitted to me, there is only a simple operational code name 'Yakir Overlord'.

To be honest, I also want to know the content of this plan and its significance.

So, if you want me to make a decision, Lord Shaw, I hope we can appease the restless mood of our allies. After all, we are fighting on the land of the Pandaren.

We are guests.

We need their unreserved trust and support. As part of the exchange for trust, I hope you can open up this battle plan to me and the leader Zhu Taran.

certainly!

He was alone, and before the battle began, he had to fulfill his duty of secrecy! "

After finishing speaking, little Jaina looked at Zhu Taran.

Head Zhu pushed his bamboo hat and nodded, which meant that he would fulfill his duty of confidentiality.

"Then, as you wish, Commander-in-Chief."

Shaw smiled.

He snapped his fingers, and a Void Warden temporarily under his command emerged from the shadows. Shaw whispered to the Warden:

"Notify General Liresa that two guests will enter Shanze Island soon, and ask her to temporarily restrain the swarm, or give the guests certain activity rights."

"The swarm?"

Zhu Taran and little Jaina exclaimed at the same time.

The former feels that this thing must have something to do with the mantid, while the latter has experienced the Silithus War, so she understands the meaning of the word "swarm".

The little mage frowned and said:

"How could you bring such dangerous things into Pandaria? Once they get out of control."

"They won't get out of control. Will your hands defy your brain, Miss Jaina."

Xiao Er said calmly:

"That is the new-generation decisive weapon of the Hidden Passage, and it is the destructive glory of the Way of Hunting in this new era.

This time the Pandaria war is not just a pandaren war, but also a preview of the upcoming demon war by a group of the best hunters in the world.

This war will test the destructive power of the swarm hunters and their control limits, and use detailed war data to improve the hunters' combat mode.

Although you have been appointed as the commander of the fleet, the authority of the "Yakir Overlord" battle plan is higher than your command authority. In other words, even if you are very dissatisfied, you have no right to terminate it.

Because, its permission comes directly from your big brother. "

"Huh? Did the big brother ask for this?"

Jaina, who was still very angry, quickly fell silent after hearing Shaw's explanation. After a few seconds, she took a long breath and said:

"If it's the big brother's decision, then I support it unconditionally. He must have his reasons."

"you."

This reaction caught Shaw a little off guard. He was ready to persuade Jaina, but he didn't expect his words to be so effective.

The master assassin frowned, and he said to Jaina:

"Your big brother may not want to see you follow so blindly, I mean, as the commander in chief, you have to have time"

"This is my family matter, Mr. Shaw, it is beyond the scope of discussion."

Little Jaina raised her head, interrupted Shaw, and said with a smile:

"Now, can we go to Shanze Island?"

"certainly."

Shaw waved his beloved crane feather cloak, he said:

"You two, please come with me, but you just need to keep your eyes on, don't ask too much. As far as I know, as the leader of the secret passage, General Liresa has never liked people who ask questions."

——

A few minutes later, Jaina and Zhu Taran were summoned directly from the Naglfar to Shanze Island, far away from the mainland, following the Shadow Summon activated by the warlock trio.

This is an island with a large area. It is exactly located in the middle of the land of the Mantis Plateau and the misty sea in the distance. It is basically the edge of the Pandaria region.

However, it has been reported that there is a larger island in the fog farther away from Shanze Island.

In the gloomy and stormy weather, the local monks can occasionally see the dazzling lightning flashing in the mist, which means that there is still a mysterious place in the mist there.

As soon as the two of them set foot on the island, they were stunned by the sight in front of them.

Eerie black obelisks have been raised across the island, and large swathes of insect nests have been unearthed above the original mogu and lizardfolk lairs.

The weird swarm creep extends from the lair to the surface, and the workers visible to the naked eye are diligently collecting all the items that can be collected on the island and sending them back to the nest.

Including but not limited to the bones of lizardmen, tree trunks and leaves, fish by the sea, and even the cut flesh and blood of sea snakes and large octopuses killed in the deep sea.

These things can be digested by the swarm, and can be used as the first food for the larvae after hatching.

As for the mogu?

Tch, the bastard race that turns into a stone statue after death is the worst!

Their bodies were somehow eaten, since the qiraji, with their appetites, could not digest stones.

But the stone remains of these mogu are not useless. Their bodies can be sent into the nest and piled up as the pillars of the tunnel to ensure that the tunnel will not collapse due to the weight of the sea water above when digging down.

The entire Shanze Island has changed drastically.

Insects are active under every inch of the ground, and in the sky, swarms of flying insects are patrolling in groups and looking for food in the sea area along the coast.

Everything that can be eaten on this island has been eaten up by the swarm in just three days.

"I don't know why you guys are so mad you want to come here, but since I'm here, there's no need for me to hide.

The Nydus Worms are digging tunnels from Shanze Island to the Dread Wastes, and the Flying Lords have bred the aerial units needed for the first raid.

And the armor bug swarm still needs a day or two to prepare the main force for the ground assault.

If you want to go to war now, there are a large number of workers who are willing to charge for their lords, and their fighting power is not bad. "

In the rhythm of the ground shaking, Windrunner's mother sitting on the head of her beloved Swarm Princess Beast appeared in front of little Jaina and Zhu Taran with cold hands and feet.

Amidst the dissatisfied buzz of the swarm lord Princess Yarki, General Liresa looked at them condescendingly, and said in a casual tone:

"Anyway, delicate little princess, welcome to the world of the swarm."
