Azeroth Shadow Trail

Chapter 225 44. The Tirisfal Council? This is the Haunted Parliament, right? (superior)

"You, you you you you... hello."

Miss Allie, the "special envoy" sent by the Tirisfal Council, stood on the pier, shaking her hands and reaching out to the snake-man prophet Warwick standing in front of her, expressing her goodwill.

But the fear in her eyes and the trembling hands represented that Miss Spellcaster's heart was not peaceful.

snake?

Why is it a snake!

The Prophet of Warwick tilted his well-dressed snake head, wearing a small crown, and looked at the trembling hand of Miss Spellcaster, which spat out the snake letter, and glanced at Bo Laike.

In human language with a weird accent:

"This female...uh, ma'am, what's wrong with her? The fear emanating from her heart, I can detect it without perception. Did something frighten her?"

"Well, no, this lady is just a disgusting racist."

The pirate explained maliciously:

"She, like most of her compatriots, likes to judge people by their appearance. I don't need to say much about the appearance of your snake people, and I told her about the 'tradition' of snake people before.

She is very worried about whether you will use the poisonous quiver that you carry with you to secretly shoot her an arrow. "

"Ah, that's it."

A piercing smile appeared on the Prophet's scaly face.

It turned to look at Ellie who wanted to explain, waved his hand and said:

"Don't listen to his nonsense, ma'am. We snake people are very friendly, and the quiver we carry is only to punish those who do not respect our beliefs enough.

I guess this mean human being must have told you that we eat carrion.

No no no, we don't eat carrion.

We only eat fresh meat”

Warwick's snake pupils zoomed in, and with a predatory gaze, he looked up and down at Ellie in front of him.

It said in a strange voice:

"Those flesh with a taste of fear, first use poisonous arrows to bring them down, wait for them to be crushed by their own fear in hallucinations, paralyzed by the venom, and then bring them back to the lair.

Eat the best parts.

Pile up the rest next to our eggs, waiting for the hatchlings to eat the softened flesh and blood as the first meal of children born in the world.

Oh, just kidding, ma'am.

We snake people are vegetarians most of the time.

See, we have a sense of humor too.

So you don't have to worry about us hurting you. Your Excellency Meri and I are also very good friends. "

What a damn sense of humor!

Are all you desert people joking like this? I think you should all be dragged to the Darkmoon Faire to learn from those masters of burlesque what a real joke is!

Ellie really wanted to rant wildly.

But because of his current identity, he also saw the irregular blue keystone surrounded by lightning that was carried off the boat by the snake people.

With the keenness of a spellcaster, she immediately realized that the thing must be something unusual.

With a stiff neck, he nodded to a kind of battle mage beside him, and all the mages immediately stepped forward to check their holy relics under the vigilant eyes of the snake-man sacred relic guards.

The main thing is to see if this thing will interfere with the release of arcane magic.

If not, use the portal back to Dalaran.

If it interferes with the stability of magic, you can only walk back.

And when the snake people disembarked, led by the red-haired Jack and some human sailors under the command of Braike, the 400 locals who had signed the contract, also carried large and small bags of luggage, and transferred to the vacated ship. .

They will be sent to Tol Barad Island first, where they will practice their sailing skills, and by the way, they will help the foxes build a village on the deserted island, reclaim wasteland and so on.

Bu Laike's fleet, in the waters of the eastern continent, also needs an obvious cover and anchorage.

Taking advantage of the fact that Tol Barad has not been occupied by other forces, first set up a territory there, and then find a way to buy the right to use that piece of land from the Kingdom of Stormgard. Laike it.

Anyway, this is a remote place, and it was not taken seriously before. As for whether you can keep it after you buy it, that's a question for Bu Laike.

"There is powerful magic power in that stone, we can't take the risk of using teleportation spells to transport it, once there is magic power interference, it is likely to cause the transmission process to fail."

Soon, the Captain of the Battle Mage brought bad news to Ellie. They had to use a carriage to send the relic keystone back to Dalaran. Fortunately, the carriage that sent the civilians over was still there.

So, in the "farewell" of a group of drunken locals, Bu Laike and the snake people set foot on the road across the Silverpine Forest.

After they left, the group of people living by the coast were still talking about it.

"What did I see? After the green orc, is there a snake with legs? Damn, this world is about to end, and all kinds of ghosts have come out."

"Those snakes can also emit lightning, I see it!"

"My kids touched the snakes and they were so friendly and gave my son a little gem! Look, I'm going to get rich!"

"Damn! Your gem is releasing lightning! Throw it away!"

"boom"

"My God, those four-legged snakes stole my apples and left money, I must not be drunk enough.

Another glass of wine!

By the Holy Light, do I have to use my mouth to cheer someone up before someone serves me wine? Hey, what are you all doing lying on the ground? Why is there smoke coming out of your heads?

Is this some new trick? "

Leaving aside the little chaos caused by this group of drunk and naive civilians, the road to Dalaran from the Snake People's side is smooth sailing.

There are battle mages on horseback escorting the front, and there are no unscrupulous creatures in the forest who dare to block the way.

But Miss Ally was having a hard time in the carriage.

Not only is she afraid of snakes, but she also has a strong thirst for knowledge, but the prophet Warwick and the pirate Bu Laike sitting opposite her speak in the language of snake people.

To the elves, that language was a completely meaningless hiss.

"Is Tol Barad all right?"

Bu Laike asked while playing with the pipe, the snake man prophet nodded, and replied in a very comfortable tone:

"In the new place, there are no unbelievers, and there is no sun that can kill people. Although the war abandoned the island, it is rich in products and has enough water.

My people love it there.

They have chosen a place in the dark forest and have built their nests.

The first batch of eggs has already begun to hatch, and perhaps soon, the population of pious people will grow again. It is a rare peaceful day. "

"I thought you couldn't adapt to places other than the desert."

Bu Laike says:

"In the Eastern Continent, it is very difficult to find a desert for you."

"We do miss the wind and sand that allows us to hide from time to time, but we live in the desert just because we have nowhere to go, not because we really like it there."

The old prophet shook his head, glanced at Ellie, and said:

"There were merchant ships that docked by the island before, and I talked to those frightened merchants, and learned about the situation on this continent from them.

I admit, I didn't have much confidence in you, Captain Bo Laike.

But after asking others about the city-state of Dalaran, I apologize for my vigilance.

But I have heard stories about these high elves. It is said that their Silvermoon City has a powerful building called the Sunwell.

Maybe we can"

"No, Warwick, I know you are concerned about the safety of the Keystone, and trust me, I care as much about it as you do."

The pirate shook his head and said to the snake man:

"Quel'Thalas may be safer than Dalaran, but I think you've also heard from the merchants about the strange tempers of these high elves.

Personally, I don't care much, since I don't deal with them anyway.

But you want to ask the high elves to keep the sacred objects for you, and it is estimated that you will not be able to talk about it for decades.

Of course, you can go and try it.

There are also many high elves in Dalaran, and they have a prince in the city. If you can convince him, I have no problem.

And, I have a little question. "

Bo Laike stared at Warwick, he said in a bad tone:

"There are merchant ships docking at Tol Barad, why did my group of incompetent subordinates let them leave? They are tired of being pirates, so are they going to try to feel like good people?"

"Well, you don't have to worry about that."

The snake-man prophet said with a strange look in his eyes:

"Those merchant ships from Gilneas have been detained by your men. I talked to those merchants in the cage. Your men have tied up the captain and crew, and have sent blackmail letters to their families."

"That's about the same."

Bu Laike nodded in satisfaction, and asked again:

"What about the group of tortoises? Are they still honest?"

"They're fighting the Naga."

The Prophet shook his head and said:

"It's in the sea area south of Tol Barad, in a place called Vashj'ir. They fought fiercely under the sea. The tortoises spent money and hired snake warriors to help in the battle.

I promised to help them protect their refugees.

Therefore, there are still hundreds of tortoises who have lost their homes on the island. Those ferocious Naga even stormed our pier, but were repulsed by the combination of orcs and snakemen.

By the way, there are two human fishermen who came to the island a few days ago, one of them."

Speaking of this, the snake man's eyes became weird.

It said to Bo Laike in a strange tone:

"The young man with the long chestnut hair told me that he had seen us in a dream, that he had dreamed that we were fighting the unbelievers in the desert.

He also accurately stated the name of the mysterious mistress, as well as the general orientation and shape of the Temple of Setaris.

Is that a prophet disguised as a fisherman? "

"Ah, Nat."

The pirate curled his lips and replied:

"That magical fisherman is much more powerful than the prophet, you will know later."

"What are you talking about?"

Ellie finally couldn't take it anymore.

The high elf chick looked at Bo Laike and said:

"How did you learn the language of the Snakeman? Lord Laike, can you teach me?"

"This is called Parseltongue, you don't understand."

The pirate glanced at her and said mysteriously:

"You can't learn it without talent. But Meili will also do this. You can let him teach you in the future. Ask me to teach you the tuition fee. I'm afraid you can't afford it."

"who said it?"

Ellie raised her chest and said proudly:

"Although my family is not a famous mage family, it has been passed down for a thousand years, and there is still wealth needed for the pursuit of knowledge."

"No, I don't want money."

The pirate looked her up and down, and said playfully:

"I want something else."

"Dirty!"

Ellie followed Bu Laike's eyes to look at her chest, immediately hugged her body with shame and anger, and screamed at the pirate:

"Dirty stinky pirate!"

"Hahaha"

The unscrupulous laughter of the pirates echoed in the carriage for a while.

In the second half of the night, the convoy entered Dalaran City without a sound and did not stop in the city. They drove all the way into a very inconspicuous dilapidated mage tower.

And through the magic mechanism inside the tower, they were sent to the secret place where the Tirisfal Council was located.

The old lich Merry Winterwind is ready for work.

As soon as the snake-man prophet came, he was dragged to the secret room by him. The old Lich had collected and recorded all his previous explorations underground in Tirisfal and recorded them in the magic gemstone, which happened to be shown to Warwick.

It proves that what the pirates said is true, human civilization is also facing the same crisis as the snake man, and human beings have the ability to solve this trouble.

This is all arranged in advance.

The purpose is to tie the snakemen to the pirate chariots and make them serve Bo Laike wholeheartedly.

"My lord, why are you still here?"

Ellie sneaked out from the side. The high elf's eyes were full of mischief. She said to Bo Laike in an exaggerated tone:

"The former members of the Tirisfal Council heard of your arrival, and they all wanted to meet you."

"Come on, everyone is waiting for you."
