Azeroth Shadow Trail

Chapter 1709 77. The second item of the investigation into the cause of the tragedy in the dock: the combination of two bases

Against the backdrop of the explosion flames of the terminal dock, countless demons ran in chaos.

Under the scolding of several Ganerge demon engineers, they are trying to rush into the burning hull to rescue some valuables.

Of course, more demons just prefer the chaos of burning and explosions. They cannot participate in the violent battle with the Azeroth invaders in Port Hope, so they can only look forward to this meaningless chaos.

There are more demons rushing out from the surrounding defense towers, patrolling back and forth in the huge and complicated area of ​​the terminal dock under the leadership of their respective commanders, trying to catch those saboteurs.

But they can't catch anything.

Because the spaceships docked at the dock were remotely detonated, and the bomb that blew them up came from Ulduar's wisdom spark, and was placed on these few ships for repairs during the watcher's secret operations these days. in the small spaceship.

"I don't understand."

On the edge of an empty and barren cliff nearly a thousand meters away from the entrance of the dock, Maiev frowned and looked at the detonated demon spaceship, she said:

"If you want to save those two guys, I can send people in to search, this kind of rescue operation pays attention to a secret, but you detonated the bomb we planted, sparking this meaningless chaos.

Do you think those two guys can take advantage of the chaos and escape?

They are not fighters, not to mention that it is not easy for real fighters to survive among so many demons.

What the hell are you expecting, Boo Laike? "

"Uh, I said I was expecting a miracle, would you hit me?"

The pirate was also looking at the chaotic terminal dock. Behind him was a group of heavily armed hunters and rangers. A little further away, the mother of Windrunner was talking to her second daughter.

Maybe it was the warning before the battle.

Of course, there may be some trivial housework.

Laike scattered his thoughts of truth, and he kept penetrating into those demons running around at this distance, like adjusting the communication radio to search for the thoughts of the two hapless ones, while talking to Maiev next to him explain:

"Forget about those bombs, bombs are not enough to destroy such a large-scale terminal dock, anyway, the Scepter of Sargeras will be delivered at midnight, and we have nothing to lose even if they fail.

And if those two amazing guys succeed, we'll make a fortune.

This is the uncertainty factor in the plan.

We need to grasp the potential benefits of these unexpected factors. "

"benefit?"

Maiev didn't like this kind of temporary change of plan, she pushed her helmet and said in a serious tone:

"You're putting two civilians who can't even protect themselves on a dangerous mission that we should be doing, and you're expecting them to do the impossible.

You know, if they fail, the demons will immediately strengthen the defense of the terminal dock, which will bring great trouble to the midnight operation. "

"Unless the demons can rebuild the completely collapsed space structure of the entire terminal dock before midnight, the star teleportation of the Scepter of Sargeras will not fail."

The pirate didn't argue with Maiev, he turned his head and smiled at the warden, saying:

"To complete such a task, at least a spellcaster at the level of a fraudster must work non-stop for at least half a month, but now they only have less than six hours left.

Unless they can get the corruption of Norgannon here, there will be absolutely no interference with our operations.

As for my confidence in Brian and Lao Zhou is not without reason.

It may be difficult for them to strive to accomplish great things, but it is easy for them to destroy something.

These two guys have some sort of uncanny talent for finding holes in a very tight defense, finding flaws in a seemingly flawless system.

This can no longer be described with skill or experience.

These two guys rely on talent when it comes to wreaking havoc. "

Bo Laike picked up his pipe and exhaled a hot smoke ring. He said:

"Anyway, it's worth trying.

If you think about it, if the two of them really do something, we will make a lot of money. If the two of them fail and are killed by the devil, we will lose two troubles at once.

Well, I found them.

These two guys are really fast, they really know how to take their chances, relying on us to create chaos caused by the explosion, they have slipped into the control room of the terminal dock.

But they seem to be in a bit of trouble."

——

The stinky pirate said that the two people who caused trouble had encountered a little trouble, which is really a mild way of saying that the two of them are now in serious trouble.

Although the process of sneaking into the command room of the terminal dock was very smooth, the two of them were not professional stalkers after all, and both of them had injuries, so the smell of blood was the most likely to attract the dogs with keen sense of smell from the demons.

"Hide! Get out of the way!"

Brian was holding a ignited demon bomb in his hand now, and he yelled at Zhou Zhuo in front of him.

The lorewalker, holding a femur stick that he didn't know he picked up, frantically swung to resist the fierce demon hounds pounced in front of him, and rolled on the spot without martial arts, letting himself hide behind a pile of idle demon mechanical creations.

And the old dwarf was like a crazy black iron sapper, throwing the ignited demon bomb in his hand towards the hellhounds who rushed over.

They don't care about whether it's secret or not.

People are dying.

With a loud bang, Brian's bomb dropped three or four Hellhounds that pounced on him, leaving no bones left. He was also lucky enough to blow down the mechanism of the iron fence of the spiral staircase leading to the command room in front of him. The heavy magic steel fence fell down and blocked the follow-up hellhounds under the stairs.

The gray-faced old dwarf sat down on the ground, panting and hugging the terrified monkey Grebe, and Lao Zhou also jumped out of his hiding place, frantically flapping his mane ignited by the aftermath of the explosion.

The appearance of the two of them at this time is very similar to those soldiers who have experienced battles on the battlefield, their bodies are covered with the blood of themselves and the enemy,

Before they could catch their breath, they heard heavy footsteps from above and below the entire command tower, as well as the scolding of the demon guards and the screams of those clever and cunning Ganerg demon technicians.

The two guys looked at each other, they didn't dare to stay at all, they scrambled and climbed all the way up the stairs that didn't know where they were going.

The roar behind him became louder and louder, and there was the echo of weapons hitting the door. It seemed that the demons were trying to tear down the magic iron fence blocking the way, which meant that there was not much time left for the old dwarf and the lorewalker.

No matter what they want to do, they have to finish it before the demons rush up.

However, fate probably favored them, and the road ahead was extremely smooth. Several times, the two guys were almost smashed by the patrolling demons, but every time they were only a few steps away from the patrollers, those The vicious demons will turn around and leave, or they will be attracted by other movements.

The many times of danger made the old dwarf and Lao Zhou exhausted, and they cursed in their hearts that this latent work was not done by humans at all, which was a bit too exciting.

"There are two roads ahead, how do we go?"

Stumbling all the way to the top of the dock control tower, Brian wiped the bloody sweat off his face, and looked at the branch road leading to two directions in front of him.

He glanced at the panting pandaren beside him, who coughed and said:

"One person and one person, the demons will definitely catch up, we split up, no matter how unlucky we are, there must be someone who can touch something important and destroy it.

It doesn't make much sense for the two of us to be together anyway, we're not good at fighting, and it takes the demons about as long to kill one as it does to kill two.

Brian, I.

It's an honor to work with you! "

Lao Zhou stood up while leaning on the magic iron railing beside him, and said to Brian solemnly:

"We may never see each other again, but I have to say, I'm so thankful to have had a like-minded friend like you before the end of my life.

I am also very glad that I was able to complete this heroic adventure with you at the last moment of my life. "

As he spoke, he became emotional, and his eyes were red.

As expected of an emotional traveler, he was the first to make himself cry when he became emotional.

Seeing him being so affectionate and righteous, the old dwarf felt sore in his heart. He tried his best to put on an expression of a tough guy, waved his hands to Zhou Zhuo as if laughing at death, and said:

"Don't be so unlucky! I believe that at least one of us will survive. Remember the eredar artifacts we unearthed together in Mac'Aree?

Let's make an agreement, old Zhou.

Whoever survives will have those discoveries sorted out for someone else, and published in both of our names. "

"Good! I swear on my last name."

Lorewalker gritted his teeth and nodded, and the old dwarf also clenched his fists.

They wanted to say some more provocative words, but the reverberation of the noisy demon roar from behind made the two timid guys tremble immediately.

They didn't say goodbye too much, and each of them chose a direction and rushed out.

Brian dashed forward along the road in front of him, and soon he smashed through a closed door. What he saw was a group of vicious Gangar Demon Engineers fighting each other like crazy.

These bastard demons didn't know why their eyes were red, and they seemed to want to kill each other on the spot as if they were killing their father and enemy.

But they were obviously located in a very important place, Brian saw several consoles covered with buttons and levers, and there were some unintelligible slogans written in demonic language on them.

Judging from the location of the control room, this should be the place where the entire terminal dock is dispatched.

"Come on!"

Brian felt a burst of ecstasy, followed by a burst of disappointment.

The ecstasy is because he has found an important place where he can start the final destruction of life, and the loss is because since he has come to the right place, then Lao Zhou must have gone to a neglected place.

This means that he is likely to die here, but Lao Zhou will survive.

But it doesn't matter anymore.

Brian had had an amazing life, and given what he'd been through, he felt Kazgross had blessed him with reaching his age.

He couldn't ask for more.

The old dwarf gritted his teeth, picked up a magic steel crowbar from the ground and walked towards the demon engineers who were in the chaos. The bloody little demons scratching each other's scalps, knocking them down one by one.

Then he threw the crowbar full of demonic blood onto the console in front of him, ready to swing the stick to destroy these sophisticated demonic machines.

The roars of demons have already sounded behind him, and there is not much time left for him.

But just as he raised his stick to destroy the machine, Brian suddenly remembered what the stinky pirate said when he teased him.

"You bastard is going to destroy the world one day by pressing one wrong button!"

In the past Brian had only taken it as a malicious sarcasm.

But now that this situation is carefully considered, there is a strange taste in these ridicules.

Braike Shaw is a notorious prophet, and he certainly doesn't talk casually. If he also thinks he is talented in pressing buttons to destroy the world, then maybe he can do it at this moment when he needs to wreak havoc. Time to try it.

The stick in your own hand can destroy the console at most, but the demon can rebuild it.

If I can do something that does not comply with the "safety regulations" and cause a chain of safety accidents, then the demons will definitely be heartbroken.

Thinking of this, Laike immediately dropped the bloody crowbar in his hand.

He stretched out his hands and pressed the buttons in front of the console indiscriminately. A few seconds later, the entire terminal dock sounded with sharp alarms, and several dock ports sprayed a large amount of black oil, which made the deck of the docked spaceship dirty. dirty.

But it's not enough if it's just a prank like this.

With the snarls and footsteps of the demons behind his ears, sweat broke out on Brian's brow, and he had to find something truly dangerous.

He thought of the electric shock that reverberated in his mind every time he got into trouble, every time he touched something that shouldn't be touched.

He tried hard to remind himself of that state.

It's like opening the observatory in Ulduar, it's like breaking the seal of the deep creation in the Vol'dun Desert, it's like the Silithus Desert, it's like the Engine of Nalak'sha in Pandaria.

He can always find the most destructive buttons like a genius, and press them without hesitation.

That is a rare intuition!

Brian wandered around the control room muttering words.

Get moving!

brain!

Get moving!

Destroyer instinct!

I need you so much right now!

"Ha, I found it!"

At the moment when the demons broke through the door, the old dwarf jumped onto the push rod in the center of several consoles, and he pushed the magic steel push rod upward with all his strength.

But the embarrassing thing is that it can't be pushed at all.

This thing is not designed for dwarven stature.

This is a devil's creation. You can tell from its size that this thing needs a big devil to start.

"It's over, I'm going to die."

Brian pushed the lever frantically, and the monkey Gribe beside him also jumped on the lever to help pull it, but the little idiot didn't know that he was pushing for nothing.

The old dwarf's eyes widened in despair, and he even felt the scorching breath of the demon walking behind him and the magic steel war hammer it swung.

I'm going to die.

The dwarf closed his eyes, and all his life flashed white before his eyes.

Ah, goodbye, my big brothers, goodbye, my niece, goodbye my unborn grandson, I hope that when people in Azeroth talk about me in the future, they will say that I am a poor and unlucky hero.

But if you think about it carefully, if you die in such a place, no one else will be able to find your body, and you will be marked as missing.

Maybe my own people will come to find me tirelessly.

Alas, this burial place is too far from home.

I really want to take another sip of the scorching dwarven ale.

Brian thought wildly and felt the strong wind coming from the back of his head, towards his own head.

I am about to be opened.

boom

With a loud noise, the old dwarf opened his eyes in horror, and saw that the lever in front of him, which could not be pushed at all, was turned upwards by the war hammer dropped by the demon.

It makes a rattling sound and a dangerous amount of plasma energy gushes out of it.

He looked back in shock at the ferocious demon guard behind him.

The demon who was supposed to come to hunt him down lowered his head, and a terrifying smile appeared on the face of the demon controlled by a cheap ancient god.

"Pleasant cooperation, dear Destroyer of Worlds."

Bu Laike's damned voice came out of the demon's eerie voice.

Then, amidst the old dwarf's scolding voice, there was a muffled sound like an explosion in the head of the big demon. It rolled its eyes and fell in front of Brian's eyes. Head poured all over.

as you wish.

Please drink the scorching "wine".

you are welcome.
