Azeroth Shadow Trail

Chapter 1255 5. My curse power is vibrating, there must be a big treasure nearby! -【2025】

Speaking of the ocean in Hellfire Peninsula, it used to be one of the most fertile areas in the entire Dellano world.

Just over ten years ago, before the orcs drank the blood of demons and fell, the inner sea between Tanaan Jungle and Shadowmoon Valley was a godsend place comparable to the Zangar Sea.

Although the orcs are limited by the terrain of the world and have not been able to develop an outstanding ocean-going navy, they can still drive ships between the two lands.

Especially the hunters of the Blood Ring clan living in the Tanaan jungle, the catch they get from this sea of ​​heaven is also a necessity for their survival.

It is said that when the Draenei first came to Dellano, they also took a fancy to the richness of this inland sea, so they built the splendid Karabor Temple and the surrounding gorgeous buildings on the coast of Shadowmoon Valley, intending to use it as a place for Germany. The ocean base of the Lenny people.

Unlike the orcs who have been satisfied with the fertile land, the draenei from a more advanced civilization obviously have the ambition to explore the entire Dellano world.

Still, the world is still too small.

Its combined land and sea area is only a quarter of Azeroth's.

Converted to the world of Argus, it is even less than one-sixth, and the continents of this world are closely linked together, and only some large isolated islands exist in the vast open sea.

Therefore, the voyage plan of the Draenei people also came to an end.

But now, at the end of the short violent era, the once fertile sea area has also become a sea polluted by fel energy, like a basin completely polluted with dark green ink.

Even driving on the sea can smell the pungent sulfur smell.

What makes people sigh is the tenacity of life. Even if the sea water has been polluted like this, there are still fish living in the sea. Unfortunately, they were caught as fish in the past and now they have become terrifying predators.

No one dares to approach the coast at will, which means that they will be attacked by strange fish from the sea, but on the other hand, the pollution of the ocean is not a bad thing.

After all, in the current sea of ​​fel energy, the orc world finally has a decent sea fleet

A group of pirates of various races showing off their might are driving their five ships without any scruples on the coast of the former Tanaan jungle and today's Hellfire Peninsula.

The scale of these warships is not large, and they have not developed the exaggerated firepower and sailing speed like the pirates of Azeroth. After all, in this world, these pirates have no peer competition, let alone the powerful Kul Tiras The navy came to surround them.

Ordinary merchant ships will suffice.

The wood used to build these merchant ships was all dismantled from the arakkoa palace in the peaks of Alanka. They were all extremely fine wood, blessed by the sun priests of the arakkoa, and could resist the corrosion of the sea of ​​evil energy.

However, although there is a ship, the pirates on it are very hip.

A group of tiger men and arakkoa with shackles around their necks were driven by the evil orcs with whips and pulled the sail ropes to make the ship turn awkwardly. landlubber behavior.

But again, Dellano does not have powerful pirates to give pointers to the Black Spirit Pirates.

In this "blue ocean market" without competition, the Black Spirit Pirates are the complete "monopoly."

But even so, Felton, the seventh knight of the Black Spirit Pirates who is currently in command of this small fleet, is still very dissatisfied with the current situation of the Black Spirit Pirates.

I know my family, as a "famous pirate" who lived in the endless sea of ​​cruel Azeroth, robbed the Kul Tiras fleet, fought undead pirates, and plundered Dalaran , His vision is already very high.

Past experience tells this black knight with a sledgehammer that his fleet is not even a third-rate fleet in Azeroth, and even the escort fleet of goblin plutocrats can easily kill them.

"A bunch of idiots!"

Felton stood alone on the prow of his flagship, the Damned, in his sleek pirate captain's armor.

Under the gloomy battle helmet, he watched with despairing eyes that the last ship in the fleet actually yawed at a speed of less than 5 knots.

The draenei traitor captain commanding the ship was angrily scolding the clumsy and frenzied Evil Orc sailors under his command, while the Evil Orcs beat the ogre slaves even harder, urging them to steer the ship back quickly.

But the problem is that it is okay to let the ogres fight, but it is obviously beyond the limit of their ability to let them pull the sails.

"A rabble! A bunch of trash! Sad landlubbers! Stupid bilge rats! Did your mother get together with drunk murlocs to give birth to you retarded morons?"

Captain Felton yelled, but he couldn't change it.

The world of Dellano has never had a tradition of long-distance voyages. The people here know nothing about sailing and naval warfare. There are only nine members of their Black Spirit Pirates, and it is too late to teach the sailors all of them.

What's more, the nine black knights themselves are half-baked, who became the One Piece king halfway from the bandit king who robbed houses.

They are not very good old sea dogs themselves, otherwise they would not be chased all over the world by their peers and navy in the sea of ​​Azeroth.

It is natural to imagine how much gold content the apprentices taught by such a third-rate master have.

But fortunately and sadly, the Black Spirit Pirates are not even considered cannon fodder in the current system of the Burning Legion.

They don't need to take on tough tasks.

Just follow the requirements of the fraudsters, take advantage of the unarmed sea area to break through the land blockade, and log in behind the Dellano native forces to open the demon portal.

Their performance in this regard has satisfied the Deceiver, and the first large-scale invasions of the Legion in Dellano were initiated by the Black Spirit Corsairs.

Now that the demons have completely taken the initiative in the war, the black spirit pirates have retired and started their "old business" again.

Cursed by Sargeras himself, their undead bodies flowed with an insatiable curse. They must constantly search for various treasures for the Dark Titan to relieve the pain and hunger in their souls.

For a while now, the Black Spirit Pirates have been busy, rampaging across the world of Dellano, taking advantage of the chaos of the demonic invasion to loot.

Draenei Treasure in the Temple of Karabor, Arakkoa Sun Relic in Tongtian Peak, Ogre Rune Treasure in Highmaul, the last city of the Ogre Empire, Bone Witch Artifact in the Khajiit Tribe, Orc Tribe The shamanic relics and so on.

But these greedy guys want and grab everything in this world.

They grabbed a lot of treasures in a very short period of time, which undoubtedly made the black knights feel the peace and satisfaction of their souls, and made them all full of energy.

If this continues, perhaps within a few years, they will be able to accumulate enough endless treasures to contribute to Lord Sargeras, and thus be freed from the curse of immortality.

Or pray to the Dark Titan to grant greater power to their loyal servants.

And the five ships commanded by the Seventh Knight Felton are transport ships that transport treasures from the Karabor Temple back to the treasury on the Ashland Peninsula.

Of course, it is worth sending out a black knight himself. There must be not only treasures on this small fleet, but also an important prisoner.

The captive is of great importance to the Black Knights, not only because he is from Azeroth, but also because he holds clues to the legendary treasure of the ogre empire.

That is one of the highest treasures in Dellano's world, and it is the target that must be obtained by the black knights!

"you go!"

The black knight's eyes twitched as he watched the last ship in his fleet yaw more and more, and watched the ship start to spin in circles more and more outrageously, he couldn't stand it anymore.

Grabbing the neck of a succubus first mate who was serving beside her and throwing her into the sky, she roared angrily:

"Go tell those bastards! If you don't get the boat back in fifteen minutes, I'll cut their necks myself! Feed their souls to the bloodhounds!"

waste!

All rubbish! Even give me twenty old sea dogs. No, ten! I'd rather trade the lives of all of them for ten old sea dogs of Azeroth!

Lord Sargeras, how can there be such a stupid creature in this world!

Is such a stupid world still necessary?

Kobolds are far more useful than they are! "

Amidst the black knight's foul-mouthed curses, the succubus first officer didn't dare to refute, so he could only flap his wings and fly to the yaw ship at the end of the fleet.

The entire fleet had to slow down and wait for them because of the damn stupid movement of that ship.

This made the black knight more and more angry.

But a few minutes later, Felton suddenly felt a strange feeling in his heart.

The power cursed by Lord Sargeras suddenly surged in his body, as if a special perception was activated, which made the angry black knight calm down for a moment, and looked at the coast of Hellfire Peninsula not far away with his eyes shining. .

There was something there that fascinated him, like a dog smelling bones.

The analogy is weird, but it's really apt, because Felton himself can't control this perception and impulse.

"My curse power is beating, that place! There is a huge treasure in that place!"

The black knight looked forward greedily, and he even took a deep breath, as if he could smell the most wonderful aroma on the sea full of sulfur.

Leaning on the ferocious magic steel sledgehammer in his hand, he called the second officer on his ship over.

It was a traitor from the Draenei who had fallen emblems tattooed all over his body. He was a "smart man" who lost his faith and joined the Burning Legion.

This means that the cunning draenei will soon be infused with the fel power of the Legion, transforming him from a pathetic draenei into a glorious eredar demon.

Become one of the fallen servants of the Deceiver and Defiler, and maybe even return to the long-lost homeland of Argus.

"There, what is there!"

Felton yelled at his second mate in a vicious voice:

"Is there a place where treasure is buried?"

"Uh."

The draenei looked in the direction pointed by the black knight, he thought for a while, and said:

"It is true that there used to be a small town where the draenei lived, but there are no treasures there. As far as I know, there are no treasures there. Dong XZ is there."

"Then go and see!"

Felton was impatient.

The temptation from the great treasure made his eyes glow with a dim light.

Under his yelling, a group of evil orc sailors hurriedly put the boat on the water surface, and found two big ogre oars to row the boat, carrying Felton and his second officer, and a team of berserk The Fel Orc Destroyer headed for the coast.

The closer he got to the coast, the more violent the impulse in Felton's heart became. The big treasure in front of him was like a shaking hammer, constantly hitting his soul.

It even caused him to have shortness of breath like a living person.

This rare situation told him that the scale of the treasure in front of him was extraordinary. Judging from his previous experience, there was at least one legendary item there.

"I really caught a big fish today."

Felton shouted in an excited hoarse voice, kicked the ogre slave who was paddling again, and scolded:

"Hurry up! Didn't you eat? I don't want to wait any longer. This big discovery will make me shine in the Black Spirit Pirates, and I will be rewarded by the Dark Titan! I will be granted higher power by the master.

I have seen that future!

hurry up! "

"Captain, I don't think something is right."

Seeing that Felton was so excited, his second mate of Draenei felt a little guilty. He whispered:

"Let me emphasize again, this place is a small fishing village, I really don't know who would bury the treasure before, and we didn't find any trace of the treasure when we drove past here before.

Maybe it's a trap. "

"trap?"

Felton sneered at this statement, he leaned on the ferocious magic steel sledgehammer and said:

"Half of the Hellfire Peninsula has been occupied by the Legion. It is very difficult for the Draenei exiles living in the mountains to survive. Where can we get legendary treasures to set traps?

Unless your Vindicators can get past the Legion's blockade in Talador, but your Archbishop Shatar has surrendered to the Legion, hehe, no one can come here!

I don't care who is in front of me!

Even if Dai Lin is here, don't try to stop me from getting the treasure belonging to the supreme master! "

The black knight issued his declaration vigorously, and he quickly landed with a group of violent servants, approaching the ruins of the draenei village that had been razed more than ten years ago.

It has been corroded by the sea wind all year round on the seaside of fel energy, and the ruins are covered with weathered sand. When the black knight approached, he vaguely saw a guy standing in front of a half-weathered tombstone.

The guy is putting a bunch of little white flowers under this tombstone.

figure of the guy

So familiar.

"Captain, what's the matter with you?"

The second officer of the draenei keenly noticed that his captain stopped in place, his hands holding the sledgehammer began to tremble, and his body trembled. Is this because he was too excited?

He asked in a low voice.

The question woke Felton up.

The black knight who was still full of pride just took a step back, and he shouted in panic:

"Impossible! Absolutely impossible! How could it be you! Why are you still not dead, you fanning the flames and disgusting bastard? How could you appear here?"

"Yo, it's Lao Qi."

The smelly pirate, who was mourning silently at the tombstone in front of him, turned his head and recognized Felton at a glance.

He also accurately stated his Black Knight number.

The stinky pirate glanced back at the Draenei cemetery where a pair of young siblings were buried. He stretched out his hand, pointed at the black knight and his servants in front of him, put it on his mouth, and said:

"Shh, keep your voice down, don't disturb the children's rest."

"Come on, let's have a good chat in another place, you don't know how happy I was when I heard that my old friends, the Black Spirit pirates, were doing well in Dellano.

Calculating carefully, we haven't seen each other for almost half a year. You really can't delay the monthly supply of my treasures. So, are you ready to pay off the debt with interest? "
