Azeroth Shadow Trail

Chapter 34 33. Extra Homework

"Wow!"

When Bo Laike appeared on the ridge, the loyal hound who was playing with Nathanos Maris immediately turned around, lowered his body, and made a pouncing motion.

This Gilnean Royal Hound looks fierce and intimidating as it prepares to attack.

Its black eyes stared fixedly at Bo Laike, as if picking the position of the first pounce, and Bo Laike could feel it from the movement of the beast's eyes.

It is looking at its own neck.

"Desolation! Squat down!"

The pirate waved his hand and gave an order.

However, the loyal and valiant hound didn't even bother him, and still maintained its preparatory action for the pounce, and the threatening whimper from its mouth became deeper and deeper.

"Desolate, quiet, it's friends who come."

Its real owner then made a sound. The moment he heard the sound, the barren puppy squatted down on the ground, obediently put away all attacks.

But its eyes still stayed on Bo Laike.

The slightest hostility will definitely usher in a round of onslaught.

"Didn't you go to Lordaeron City?"

Bu Laike got off his horse ten meters away from Nathanos. He looked at the human ranger with a gentle smile in front of him, and asked tentatively:

"And that letter, has it been sent?"

"Letter? What letter?"

Maris was taken aback for a moment, and he asked:

"I don't remember that you sent me a letter. Also, I did leave Danga Locke Castle with my companion two days ago, and moved to the King City of Lordaeron.

But on the way, I encountered some small 'problems'. "

Marius looked at Bo Laike. In his memory, the two hit it off at Danga Locke Castle, but then separated, and only now met again.

Traveling to Dunholde Castle with Brad Laike is no experience at all.

But he was still a little confused about this "orc killer" in his heart. The unknown closeness, and the fact that Bu Laike also appeared in Chillwind Hill, meant that he was also invited by Ravenholdt, so he didn't hide it.

Say:

"My captain and I received a special hunting invitation. The captain is very interested in it, so we rushed here."

"Is Ravenholdt's row so big?"

Bu Laike quipped:

"I thought the League of Assassins only had some names in the human kingdom, but I didn't expect the high elves of Quel'Thalas to know of their existence."

"Because there are high elf assassins in the League of Assassins."

Another voice, instead of Nathanos, answered Boo Laike's question.

The pirate looked up and saw a tall high elf who was dressed exactly like Maris, wearing elven chain armor and a cloak, carrying a war bow, and two phoenix daggers at his waist, walking out of the jungle behind.

He speaks human language very well, with a slight twist of tongue.

There is a head of blond hair, wrapped in a sapphire headband, hanging down in front of the cheek, blocking the left cheek, and on both sides of the hair, sharp ears can be seen tilted back.

The most eye-catching thing is that he is holding the ferocious heads of several trolls tied together in his hand. That thing is very fresh, and it is still dripping blood.

"The soldiers of Alterac have cleaned up the ruins of Chillwind Hill very badly. I can smell the smell of troll activities across a forest."

With a comfortable smile on his face, the elf ranger casually threw his "trophies" aside, took out a scented handkerchief, and wiped the blood on his chain mail.

He walked up to Maris, looked Boo Laike up and down, and said:

"Nathanos, is this human friend the 'orc killer' you talked about before?"

"Yes, Captain Bright Wing."

Maris respectfully gave the high elf a courtesy among the far travellers, and he introduced Laike again:

"This is my captain, the high-ranking ranger Halduron Bright Wing of the Farstrider Legion. Although the captain is only a lieutenant now, the ranger general Liresa values ​​the captain very much.

He will most likely be the next ranger lord of Quel'Thalas. "

"Then, let me salute the future Ranger Lord!"

Laike took a step back, imitating the etiquette of the high elves in his memory, and bowed slightly forward. Halduron Brightwing also had the reservedness unique to the high elves.

After receiving this gift, he nodded slightly as a return gift.

However, Bu Laike knew very well in his heart that the future achievements of the Halduron Brightwing in front of him could not be summed up by a simple ranger lord.

In the future more than ten years later, he will become the kingdom of the high elves of Quells, the first ranger general of the non-Windrunner family in history.

If you know anything about the internal affairs of Quel'Thalas, you will know what a formidable achievement this is.

Of course, Halduron will be able to take over as Ranger General in the future. Apart from his outstanding ability and having a good friend of the Regent, a big reason is also because of the Windrunner family who have been serving as Ranger General for nearly seven thousand years. Fall in disaster.

The big sister disappeared, the second sister died in battle, and the younger sister went away to another country. There was only one young man who could not support the glory of the windrunner for a thousand years, and stayed in his hometown.

"As a human being, hunting hundreds of orcs alone is already a truly heroic act, and it is more like a miracle. If you were born in Quel'Thalas, there will definitely be a bard who will sing the epic for you."

Halduron looked at Bu Laike in front of him, and he gave a gentle word of appreciation.

But with sharp eyes, Bo Laike felt "naked" in front of this powerful ranger.

Bu Laike didn't even dare to throw a scout at the ranger in front of him.

He had this instinctive premonition of danger. Once he did this, he would be nailed to the ground by the two phoenix daggers at Halduron's waist in the next instant.

What's more, it is enough to know that he is powerful, and that he is a strong support from his own side.

There is absolutely no need to do such an unpleasant thing.

Now Laike feels more and more that the detection skill given by this ranger class is very similar to the evil detection of a paladin.

It cannot be said that it is not a good skill.

It's just that the side effects are too great, once it is thrown out, it will inevitably lead to a big trouble.

"Braike, I heard that Maris taught you the blade dance technique of the Farstrider, and he told me that you are very likely to be the second human being to master this skill after him in this era. "

This future accomplished elven ranger is a very talkative person, and he rarely has the arrogance and prejudice that are deeply rooted in the bone marrow of other high elves.

In just a few minutes of meeting, I left a very good impression on Bo Laike.

He looked at Bo Laike's weapon, then at the sky, and said:

"There is still time now, why don't you practice with Marius and let me see your understanding of the blade dance. If you can really master it, maybe the Farstrider Legion will also open the door to you.

As far as I know, Ms. Sylvanas has already seen this possibility in her disciple Marris, and she intends to select talented humans to join our ancient Ranger Legion.

This idea was also supported by General Liresa.

Perhaps, you can also become the second Marris. "

"Yes, my friend."

Maris also chimed in and joked:

"I am alone, and I often miss my hometown in Quel'Thalas, and some elves will treat me like a rare animal. If a human friend also joins the Farstrider, my situation will undoubtedly be much better. "

"Then come."

Bo Laike was not bothered either, he drew out his blade fist and Werther's leg casually, and raised his chin at Marius, who shrugged and drew out two elf one-handed axes.

Under the watchful eyes of Halduron with his arms folded, the two began to fight with weapons in close combat. It was not a battle of life and death, so the speed was very slow, just like a drill.

"The left arm moves too much, and swinging the weapon like this slows down your reflexes."

"Suppress your desire to attack, and always remember that the opportunity exposed to you by the enemy may also be a trap to lure the enemy deep."

"Maris, your counterattack is too slow!"

"Bo Laike, pay attention to defense when retreating. This is the first step. If you can't even learn how to defend, then counterattack is even more impossible."

"Are you humans all so rude? Elegant! Remember, move as gracefully as possible, this is not just for looking good, this is the tradition of the far traveler!

We cannot fight like barbarians! "

"Well, the blade fist is not suitable for you, maybe you can try a dagger and short sword, and Maris's one-handed ax is more suitable than the blade fist.

You don't know how to use this unique weapon at all, you just wield it freely. "

Halduron Brightwing is really a very strict superior. Maybe he doesn't want to reveal his attitude, but when he sees that Bu Laike and Maris have made mistakes, he will instinctively correct them.

When he made mistakes several times in a row, he even reprimanded them in the elf-specific sarcasm, which put a lot of pressure on the two beginners, Maris and Bu Laike.

It's like taking an exam in front of a strict teacher.

But this kind of strict requirements and on-site guidance worked very well. Bu Laike was constantly corrected his mistakes, and he could clearly see that the learning progress of Blade Dance in the skill column of the character card was constantly improving.

Probably because Halduron was proficient in this skill, and it was taught by him himself, which made Bu Laike learn quickly.

Go at this rate.

In another two or three hours, Blade Dance can be truly unlocked.

"Hey, you're so strict, look, you're freaking them out."

Just an hour later, the sky was getting late, and when the two started the fourth round of confrontation, a soft voice suddenly came into the surroundings of the three of them.

Halduron's reaction was so fast that Bo Laike didn't even see how he drew the bow. An arrow whizzed into the front, and the next moment, it was bright.

Flares.

The flare fired by the arrow, just by looking at the glowing posture, one can tell that the flare must be of a high grade, but it still failed to force the stalker out of the shadows.

In the next moment, two dim blade lights splashed from Halduron's eyes. The ranger seemed to have no bones, and his body fell backwards along the blade.

It was like a spring was tense and accumulating power. At the moment when the waist bar was about to break, both hands clasped the phoenix dagger at his waist, and a fierce counterattack hit the assassin's arm armor that appeared in the shadows in front of him.

Sparks were flying, and the tall, strange assassin in a black battle dress with his upper body naked was shot back, but he was not injured at all.

With a bounce on the ground, it landed firmly on a higher treetop.

The confrontation between the two was as fast as lightning.

But in the end, no one took advantage of it.

"Yo, Ming Yi, your skills have regressed quite a bit."

The assassin on the top of the tree stood up, only then did Laike see that he was also a high elf, with long gray-black hair that fell loose on both shoulders, but tied into a single ponytail at the back of his head.

He still has a goatee.

That's the bad thing about elves, they live so long that they don't age until they die, so it's hard to tell an elf's age from its appearance.

"Shen Ying, you are still as annoying as before!"

Halduron withdrew his two phoenix daggers, and without looking at the sneering elf assassin above his head, he said:

"I thought it would be the shadow walker of the Sangunar family, but I didn't expect you, a layman, to come. Now I am worried about the result of this hunt.

You guys are terrible in every way. "

"The shadow walkers of the Sangunar family are busy protecting the Sun King, how can they have time to play in the human territory?"

The elf assassin who was ridiculed was not angry at all, and leaned against the tree in a more comfortable posture, playing with the crystal-like slender dagger in his hand, and said slowly:

"This action by Ravenholdt doesn't even arouse the interest of the Blood Baron. Valeera, his little girl, is really eager to try, but unfortunately, she hasn't completed the Shadow Trial yet.

The big shots look down on your petty fights.

So, I'm the only one here. "
