Azeroth Shadow Trail

Chapter 1473 106. I was wrong, you are still my god, Emperor Denathius!

Back then, because of Frostmourne's good work, the emperor gave Bu Laike a "personal armed force" composed of 3,000 Stoneborn with a wave of his hand, which once made the stinky pirates very excited.

He even had a simple idea of ​​"following the emperor and having candy".

But it turns out that the cunning Bu Laike did not escape the pit of empiricism in the end.

He seemed a bit too generous in thinking of an Eternal who had ruled Revendreth for countless eons, and mastered all the machinations and machinations that had ever existed.

The Stoneborn legions promised by the Emperor did come.

And they are all genuine stone-born soldiers, but the problem is that no matter the quantity or quality, they are far from the authentic "Standard Legion" that can shake the world of death in the memory of the stinky pirates.

Not to mention that these recruits lined up in the valley and tried to pretend to be brave, but in fact, even the little firebirds on the shoulders of the pirates could feel their "emptiness".

Not to mention the overly monotonous combination of arms.

The real Stoneborn Legion is based on the Stoneborn Destroyer who is extremely good at close combat and defense, flanked by the Stoneborn Shadow Assassin, and then assisted by the unstoppable Gargon Beast Legion.

Finally, use the stone-born demon like a big bat as the air suppression unit.

In short, this is a completely systematic, very simple and perfect tactical arrangement and arm matching.

And now the stoneborn that appeared in front of Laike are all shadow assassins.

Not that stoneborn assassins are bad.

These female stone descendants with slender bodies and wings connected to their arms like the arakkoa, who can fly in the air and perform precise assassinations of death from the sky, are very powerful in combat.

But their bodies are too fragile.

They need to be paired with the Stoneborn Destroyer to display their perfect combat effectiveness.

It's useless for Bu Laike to just ask for a group of assassins.

And most of these stoneborn assassins don't wear the Sin Warrior badge, which means they haven't completed their recruit training

Good guy, Bu Laike thought he could prostitute the strongest army under Emperor Denathius for nothing, but he didn't expect the emperor to come back and "reverse prostitute".

After five hundred years of fighting with an outstanding assassin master like Bu Laike, this group of Stoneborn recruits just finished their elite training. When they return to Revendreth, the emperor will have another deadly striker under his command.

Well!

This wave, this wave belongs to the extraction of surplus value. The emperor's behavior of squeezing his "loyal servants" almost made the capitalists cry.

It is worthy of being the ancestor of a group of animatronics vampires.

Finally, let's talk about quantity.

This is obviously only about 1,200 people!

This is what made Boo Laike angriest.

Forget about the new recruits. Anyway, with the legendary biological template of the Stoneborn, they will accumulate a lot of combat experience and become qualified fighters after a few casual battles.

Even single armies.

The "crispness" of the Stoneborn Assassin is compared with that of the Stoneborn Destroyer, which is big and round, rough-skinned and thick-skinned.

These creatures, esoterically carved by the mysterious Lady Stonesmith from the strongest magical stone in the Shadowlands, are so perfectly designed that they have no weaknesses in the conventional sense.

Ordinary weapons simply cannot penetrate their self-repairing rock bodies.

Because it was originally designed to fight against the naaru, stoneborn are naturally endowed with superior energy and magic resistance.

As long as these stoneborn assassins complete their combat training, their resistance to magic can even be compared with Quel'Thalas' famous "demon breakers" spellbreakers without falling behind.

But the quantity is too small!

What is the use of twelve hundred people?

In the current situation that Bu Laike is facing, such a small number of people can't even fill a combat field!

Therefore, in front of General Carl, who commanded these Stoneborn assassins, the pirates were very unhappy.

But General Carl, as the third general of the Stone Legion under the Emperor's command, had also experienced it before. She knew exactly where Laike's anger came from, and she also made preparations in advance.

Facing the anger of the pirates, the mighty and tyrannical General Carl did not explain too much, but just waved his claws like eagle claws, dotted with blood rubies and steel gauntlets.

Behind her, a stoneborn assassin captain took off a special bone whistle and blew gently on his mouth. There was no sound but a heart-pounding breeze. Then, under the gaze of Braike, a About the size of a big horn, a strange rock beast that looks like a combination of a bear and a dog is summoned.

The body of the thing was huge and heavy, a pair of blood-colored eyes stared at Bo Laike, and it bared its teeth at the flesh and blood creature.

This thing is called Gargon.

A hound and war beast belonging to the dead kingdom of Revendreth, it has the strength like a bear, the bravery like a wolf, and the loyalty like a dog, and it is the favorite companion of the Venthyrs.

"Don't misunderstand the emperor's love and value for you, Your Excellency Earl Bu Laike."

General Carl touched the fierce and powerful Stoneborn Gargon beside him, and explained to Bo Laike:

"Every Stoneborn assassin here is mind-linked with an accompanying Gargon beast before setting out, which means that they are not only the best assassins, but also excellent hunters like you.

They and their gargons are part of this legion.

If you are really as magical as the legend says, you should know that this is the traditional configuration of the Obstinate Stone Legion. "

"Hmph, that's about the same."

After hearing General Carl's explanation, the pirate with folded arms and a displeased face curled his lips and said:

"Then even if the number of people and dogs is doubled, this number is still not enough! The emperor promised to give me three thousand stone descendants!"

"The remaining six hundred members are here."

General Carl shook his head.

He took out a very delicate stone sculpture from his arms and handed it to Bu Laike. The latter took a look in his hand and was immediately attracted by the lifelike sculpture of a "gargoyle".

Its engraving is absolutely top notch.

On a stone, a flying beast that is very similar to a bat, but more aggressive and has horns, thick forearms and terrifying claws, and a rock armor on its body is carved out of a stone with a crazy technique.

The most surprising thing is that there is a full-cover protective helmet on the head of this beast.

While providing the best head protection, it completely obscures the beast's vision.

But the excellent carving skills are second to none. When this thing was delivered to the pirates, Bo Laike felt a strong heart surge in it, which means that this is not a simple sculpture.

In the next moment, under the pirate's concentrated attention, the engraved entry in his hand came into view:

Name: Beast of Fort Nathria/"Blind Hunter" Xiaoyi

Race: Stoneborn Demon [Legendary Race]/Animation Creation

Occupation: Stoneborn Demon race has no ordinary occupations. Legendary creature templates are regarded as full-level ordinary occupations.

Legendary Occupation: Level 12 Blind Stalker, Leader/Level 12 Castle Secret Guard, Leader [Stoneborn Demon Exclusive Occupation]

Mythical Occupation: Level 1 Night Claw Venthyr Covenant Enhancement

Status: Favor of the Eternals

Mission statement:

The birth of Xiaoyi stems from a rare mistake of the stone blacksmith. She forged a born blind castle guardian for the emperor. It stands to reason that such a defective product should be destroyed at the beginning of its birth.

But for some unknown reason, both the stone forger and the emperor acquiesced in the existence and growth of Xiao Yi.

The blind hunter also proved himself in service in the Endless Era, the most powerful stoneborn that Revendreth has seen since the birth of the first stoneborn.

It is deeply trusted and favored by the emperor, day and night, day and night, sleepless in the emperor's glorious palace, all intruders who try to sneak into the palace will become Xiaoyi's prey and plaything.

"You figured it out too, didn't you?"

General Carl saw Bu Laike fondly playing with the Stoneborn sculpture in his hands. The general of the Stone Legion explained in a slightly jealous voice:

"The Stoneborn Demon in your hands is by no means an ordinary guardian, but the kind and generous emperor specially gave you his favorite loyal beast as a guard in recognition of your contribution.

This is a rare gift.

Although the remaining stoneborn are not as powerful as Howling Wing, as long as you designate targets for them and feed them with enough anima, they will also become your loyal army sweeping the sky.

As for why there is no Stoneborn Destroyer in this legion specially pieced together for you, the reason is also very simple.

The emperor thinks that the nature of your work does not require those soldiers who charge into the battle, and it is the best choice to hand over a group of assassins to your commander, not to mention that the existence of the Gargon Legion is enough to make up for the lack of forwards in this material world."

This stone-born general from Revendreth wanted to help his great emperor explain why the rewards he had promised had "shrunk to the limit".

But under Laike's quiet gaze, General Carl's voice became smaller and smaller. Probably because he realized that the guy in front of him was not easy to fool, in the end, General Carl simply stopped pretending.

This pretty female stone-born general put her hips on her hips and pushed the luxurious Venthyr battle armor full of vampire depravity on her shoulders. She whispered:

"I was originally ordered by the emperor to mobilize a full army of real elite soldiers from my mentor, General Draven, the current commander of the Stone Legion.

But before departure, Chu Yuan suddenly had a problem.

The four major kingdoms have all been warned by the Eternal City, and the destiny revealed by the arbitrator shows that there will be changes in the future, so Revendreth, one of the four major kingdoms in the shadow world, has to start hoarding troops to prepare for war.

This led to the legion I assembled being forcibly taken away by that stone-headed Draven.

This is a call from the arbitrator, and even the emperor can't intervene in it, so I can only bring these recruits to the material world. "

Having said that, the third general of the Stone Legion shook his head helplessly, and said to Bu Laike:

"So, your luck is really bad. This kind of gathering from the Eternal City may not happen once in tens of thousands of years. How come you just happened to bump into it?"

"You really think it's a matter of luck?"

Bu Laike narrowed his eyes immediately after hearing General Carl's explanation. He rubbed his chin and glanced at General Stoneborn, then at the powerful Stoneborn statue in his hand, and said:

"So, this thing?"

"This is your compensation from the emperor."

General Carl looked around at the landscape that was completely different from the world of death and belonged to the material world. Curiously, she stretched out her claws to catch a fallen maple leaf in the air, and sniffed it gently under the nostril carved in the rock. By the way, she explained in a low voice :

"I didn't lie to you, I rarely see the supreme emperor would deliberately compensate a collaborator for such an unexpected incident. Especially if this collaborator is a weak mortal

You must be amazing, mortal.

Otherwise, it would be impossible for the Great Emperor to pay such attention to you.

I heard that that little bitch Jin Tessa has suffered in your hands? "

"You can't call her by such an insulting nickname, because she is now my loyal servant."

Bu Laike replied casually, which made the eyes of the Stoneborn general in front of him shine, and he showed an undisguised smile. She raised her paw and patted Bu Laike on the shoulder, and said more enthusiastically than before:

"Well, even though we hadn't met before, if you can deflate the leader of the hated Nathrezim and make her suffer such a shame, then you are a friend of our Stoneborn.

Although the great cause of the Great Emperor is supreme and cannot be delayed, if during these hundreds of years of serving you, we can see with our own eyes those damned Nathrezim bats, my soldiers and I will be more happy Loyalty' to you. "

"Look at your poor wishes that make me feel sad, but if that's all you want"

Bu Laike rolled his eyes and said:

"Not only can I let you see that the dreadlords are in trouble, I can also let you participate in it and punch two hard, and there will be a suitable opportunity soon.

What I am worried about now is how to arrange you and your assassins, as well as the dogs of the assassins. I know that stoneborn assassins can fly, but how long can you maintain the flight concealment? "

"We are Stoneborn, my lord."

General Carl proudly raised his stone chest and said:

"We don't have a weak situation where we're tired.

As long as you need, we can stay hidden in the target area until you need us to launch an attack, and I have already tested it in the material world when I flew here just now.

When we turn into stone statues, we will not be detected by the magic of your world.

Now I am very willing to lead this group of recruits to hunt and start their combat training. I have sensed a lot of powerful auras in this land.

One of them feels very dangerous to me, and even has a few traces of force deterrence very similar to the Great Emperor.

It seems that your world is indeed very strange in terms of power levels. "

"At least don't provoke Queen Azshara."

Laike didn't need to think about who the stoneborn general was referring to when he said he felt a dangerous aura. He shook his head and warned:

"The empress to whom I am now serving can eat you and your assassins like sandwiches, and bring your unique stone corpses back to her court to serve as statues.

Believe me, she would definitely do such a cruel thing.

I will designate a target for you, you should start trying to lurk in it now, the target is the island that is filled with the brilliance of the sun well on the other side of the northernmost sea area of ​​this peninsula.

I need you to lurk in the Sunwell.

Of course, just outside. "

The pirate picked up his pipe, tossed the Stoneborn statue up and down, and said to the eager General Carl:

"Show me the stoneborn's aerial infiltration tactics.

Oh, by the way, one last question, you stoneborn will serve me for five hundred years, during which time you will serve me, but I don't need to pay you anything, right? "

"Why are you so stingy!"

General Carl curled his lips in disdain and contempt, but then, the powerful Stoneborn General of the Shadow Realm said nonchalantly:

"Don't worry about military pay, all the wealth in the material world is meaningless to us, except for anima. Your world also has very good anima, and I already smell the smell of war in the air.

I know that I can personally plunder fresh power from this war for me to taste! "

"swish"

After General Carl finished speaking, the eyes of Laike who had planned to leave suddenly lit up.

He rolled his eyes, coughed back, and said to General Carl:

"I forgot that all of you Shadow Realm creatures have the ability to plunder and collect anima. How about this, I will help you find suitable anima targets, and I will send you to every battlefield, and you only need to plunder

I only want two-thirds of the anima loot! "

"One third! And you have to provide us with sufficient weapons, armor, and high-quality stone materials so that stonemasons and carvers can use them to repair the battle damage of soldiers' bodies.

I don't know if there are any stonemasons in your world who can create new stone descendants. Before I left, the emperor gave me the order to develop stone descendants in this world.

Although stoneborn born in the material world are far weaker than their Shadowlanders, their existence is still part of the great cause of the emperor. "

General Carl snorted, spread his paws and said:

"The above is my bottom line for the allocation of spoils, if you want."

"make a deal!"

Before the general could finish speaking, Laike held out his hand to General Carl.

He blinked and said in a very sincere tone:

"Then I ask you to take good care of me for the next five hundred years, my dear pirate guard, General Carl the Anima Ravager. Go ahead and hunt some anima to please yourself.

I will arrange for you the best group of masons in the world.

They happen to have business dealings with me, maybe they will give me a discount. "
