Azeroth Shadow Trail

Chapter 444 153. I will come to you

"Recovery"

Amidst the neighing of the majestic steed, Maris Nathanos, wearing the Quel'Thalas ranger armor, was driving the Quel'dorei steed under him, galloping through the trails of Eversong Forest.

I haven't seen him for a while, but this human ranger is still as handsome as before, and the tailor-made ranger armor on his body also makes him a bit more powerful.

He is no ordinary ranger now.

Because of his meritorious service in killing the orc chieftain Keir Rogge Deadeye in the Battle of the Burning Plains, he has been awarded the position of Ranger General by King Terenas of Lordaeron.

This is a special position created by Lordaeron in imitation of Quel'Thalas.

The old king obviously made up his mind to train Nathanos carefully, so that this talented young man could train his own ranger troop for the human kingdom.

But the problem is, at the same time that Lordaeron began to woo Maris, there was also gossip from the Quel'Thalas Farstrider Legion that the new Ranger General, Ms. Sylvanas Windrunner, intends to His disciple Maris was promoted to Lord Ranger.

This is a real big deal.

In the 6,800 years since the founding of Quel'Thalas, no foreigner has been able to become a ranger lord.

Although it sounds less prestigious than the Ranger General, the Ranger Lord is the real power position of the Farstrider Legion, and once Maris accepts this appointment, he will be tied to the high elves forever.

There's also recent jokes that the human, Marius Nathanos, is about to become an "honorary Quel'Thalas."

Of course, Maris is not an idiot, he is well aware of the reason why this rumor will spread.

On the one hand, it is because the elves cannot allow the secret training method of the Ranger Ranger to be obtained by humans, so they want to tie Maris to their side.

On the other hand, it was because of the faint ambiguity between Maris and Ms. Cirvanas, which seemed to be finally discovered.

It is said that an "insider" from Windrunner Manor accidentally revealed it during a banquet in Silvermoon City. In short, Marius is in trouble now.

He was very uncomfortable in the human kingdom, and the king's emissary was too warm to him.

He also felt uncomfortable staying here with the elves, and Ms. Cirvanas' fanatical suitors regarded him as a thorn in their side. Only a few days after he came to Silvermoon City, he received more than a dozen duel invitation letters.

This pissed off Marris, and made him even more bored with these political topics, so he left Silvermoon City on the pretext of meeting friends and went to visit Golden Sword Manor.

His friend, of course, is Fina Golden Sword who has been staying in Quel'Thalas recently.

"Hey, General Ranger's pet boy is here. This horse is not bad. It's a high-quality pure-blooded Quel'dorei warhorse. It's very expensive. Where did you get it?"

At the gate of the Golden Sword Family Manor hidden by a lake in Yonggesen Lin, Nathanos had just jumped off his horse when he heard a teasing voice.

He turned his head helplessly, and looked at Fenna Jinjian, who was wearing ordinary clothes and holding an unfinished novel in his hand, looking at him with his hips on his hips.

There was a malicious smile on the face of the hybrid human and elf.

"Sent by Prince Kael'thas.

Thank you for killing Kiel Rogge Deadeye on the battlefield and avenging the elf rangers who died in Arathi. "

Maris handed the reins of his beloved war horse to the servants of the Golden Sword family, and patted the neck of this snow-white majestic war horse with a weird one-horn on its forehead.

He really liked the horse.

Although he also knew that His Royal Highness gave him such a good horse, it must not be just because of "respecting his name for a long time".

"You are a big shot now."

Fenner also admired the majestic white horse. She brushed her hair and said to Maris:

"I was in the Golden Sword Manor, and I heard rumors about you. My mother also said yesterday that the Silver Moon Council also intends to award you the badge of a war hero.

They want you to stay in Quel'Thalas before you bring our ranger tactics and techniques to the human realm. Let's be honest, do you have an idea to teach your fellow countrymen? "

"I don't want to talk about it."

Maris rubbed her aching head, shook her head, and said to Fenner:

"I'm just an errand, delivering things for your brother, the same as last time."

While talking, he took out the heavy shield that old Gani sent from his magic luggage with great difficulty, put it on the ground with a bang, and immediately smashed a small hole in the ground.

This thing is made of magic steel, and the whole body is dark.

The shield surface is 1.8 meters high, and it is a large door-shaped protective shield.

There are sharp spikes arranged outside the arc-shaped shield surface, making it more than just a defensive thing. As for the firmness and sharpness of these fine steel shield spikes, in the hands of soldiers, a shield blow is enough to make the shield Everyone in front of him had their stomachs pierced.

The weight of such an overbearing shield is quite astonishing.

Maris struggled to hold it with both hands, but Fenner's eyes lit up when she saw the shield.

She stretched out her slender left hand, clasped it on the handle behind the shield, lifted it with one hand, and easily grasped the shield in her hand.

To be honest, such a heavy shield is very strange to match with a slender elf like Fenner.

It might be more appropriate if an orc or tauren warrior is holding such a shield.

Fenner made a decent block, stepped forward again in a wrong step, and struck out a vicious standard shield attack. With such aura, Maris immediately shrank her neck.

"B Laike has an impeccable eye for treasure hunting and gear appreciation."

Fenna stroked the icy heavy shield very satisfied, and said:

"Counting the magic armor he sent last time, I really enjoyed my birthday this year. He knows what I want, and he really deserves to be a person connected by blood.

The dresses and jewelry sent by others made me want to laugh.

Shall I smash my enemies with those priceless jewels? "

"It's not for nothing."

Maris looked around and said in a low voice:

"Your brother said that he would come to Quel'Thalas for a while, and asked me to tell you that he wanted to see Mrs. Golden Sword, and I asked you to arrange it. It is said that there are some dangerous things to be done here, so I should be prepared .

Tsk tsk, as expected of my family, but if there is any danger, you will not be allowed to participate, and I will be used as cannon fodder. "

"yes?"

Fenner put her beloved shield back into the magic luggage, she sniffled, frowned and said:

"Take care of your fox! If it messes around in mother's favorite garden again, I'll kill it!"

"It's a bit naughty, and I've worked hard to train it."

Marius smiled awkwardly and whistled again.

A few seconds later, a blue fox running between reality and reality appeared from around. It was as big as a dog, with a beautiful huge fluffy tail.

But there is always hateful sarcasm and malice in the fox's eyes.

If you look carefully, there are wisps of jumping electric arcs wrapped around this guy's claws, which means that it also has its own special ability.

"Fenner! Fenner! Something is wrong, Jinjian Aunt's favorite tulip was stolen and eaten."

A few minutes later, panicked cries sounded from the manor.

Wearing an elven robe, the little human girl who was "travelling" in Quel'Thalas, the daughter of the archmage, Caitlin Luinvivor, ran out with her skirt in hand, and brought bad news to the female warrior.

The latter clenched his fists after hearing this, and looked at Maris in front of him angrily. The latter also gave his soul beast a vicious look, while the blue fox squatted where it was, pretending not to see the master's anger.

While licking its paws like a cat, it flicked its big tail, as if to say, the fragrant magic tulip was eaten by a hateful beast, so what does it have to do with my well-behaved and sensible little fox?

"A hunter who can't even train his pets well, what right does he have to call himself a ranger?"

Fenner squeezed her fist and said with a sneer:

"I think you really need to be taught a lesson."

"Don't do it, I will pay for it."

Maris held up her hands and said:

"For your brother's sake, why not"

"When did I have a brother? Are you stupid?"

Fenner's face suddenly became indifferent.

Maris glanced at the little human girl Caitlin next to her, and then realized that she had made a slip of the tongue, so she laughed and skipped the topic.

Just as he was about to say goodbye, he saw a ray of teleportation light appearing in the shade of a tree not far from the manor. A lady wearing a spellcaster robe, her hair curled up, and a graceful face held the magic sword at her waist, and walked Step out of the light.

This is Mrs. Gina Golden Sword.

She is very similar to Fenna Jinjian in stature, shape and appearance. The two stand together like sisters, not like mother and daughter at all.

But Madam Jinjian had a somewhat irritable expression on her face. When her daughter came up to meet her, she glanced at Fenna with a complicated expression, and said in a very magnetic Salas language:

"Your father's letter was delivered to me today. He said he would come to Quel'Thalas to meet me. Although he didn't say so clearly in the letter, he was testing me about you inside and out.

Alas, my silly daughter, I shouldn't have allowed you to set foot on the battlefield of the Burning Plains. "

"this"

Fenner's expression also became complicated.

The mother and daughter were talking, and Caitlin was about to listen, but Maris, who was more sensitive, pulled her arm and stepped aside.

This kind of thing cannot be heard.

It will be silenced, silly boy.

The relationship between the Proudmoore family is too chaotic. If there is a quarrel, the face of your archmage father will not be able to protect you.

"But it has to be solved, and we can't keep procrastinating."

Fenna Jinjian was silent for a few seconds, took a long breath, raised her head and said to her mother:

"From the moment I met Bo Laike, I knew that the things I've been fighting against will come to me. Mom, let's not talk about me, how do you deal with the lover of the past?

If you meet Dai Lin again, how will your relationship be sorted out?

He owes you too much.

He cannot come to Quel'Thalas, and once these things are known, your reputation will be ruined. "

"Of course not letting him come here."

Mrs. Jin Jian smiled, and she said to her daughter:

"The final meeting may take place in Dalaran. Prince Kael'thas found me today. He hoped that I could join his small group and go to the human kingdom in the near future.

In the next half a year, I may have to spend it in Dalaran.

Therefore, no matter what I negotiate with Dai Lin, it will not affect the reputation of the Golden Sword family. "

"Ok?"

Fenner froze for a moment, she asked:

"Mom, didn't you always dislike the noise in Dalaran? Why did you take the initiative to accept the prince's invitation this time? Didn't the parliament faction always keep a distance from the prince?

Will your joining his group in this way affect your seat in the parliamentary faction? "

"Hehe, my silly daughter has grown up and knows how to think about these disgusting political factors."

Mrs. Jin Jian covered her mouth and smiled, revealing the style of a mature woman. She took her daughter's hand and walked into the aisle under the shade of the tree. As she walked, she explained to Fenner:

"But things are different this time. This time, the Royal Party and the Parliament faction acted together. Although it was Prince Kael'thas who stepped forward, His Majesty the Sun King should be behind it.

It's all because of the uproar in northern Xinjiang recently. "

"Lothar and his sword?"

As soon as the mother spoke, Fenner understood and said:

"I heard the servants at home chatting and saying that the human nobles have placed a reward in the assassin organization. As long as Lothar dares to bring the emperor's sword back to the northern border, he is destined to die on the land of his ancestors."

"Well, that's it."

Mrs. Jin Jian said calmly:

"During the orc war, Lothar's request for help from Quel'Thalas was declined by the Sun King. This incident has aroused dissatisfaction among many people, who believe that the Sun King violated the promise made 2,800 years ago.

That decision was indeed a mistake. Although we also sent troops to participate in the decisive battle on the Burning Plain, it was hard to recover.

Probably in order to restore the reputation of the Sunstrider family, the Sun King started to act when the Lothar incident was in the air. This time Quel'Thalas will send His Royal Highness and a group of guards to protect Lothar who is about to return to the northern border from harm.

We will not allow Lothar to die in a despicable political assassination! "

"I'll go with you, Mom."

Fenner immediately said:

"I also fought side by side with Marshal Lothar, and I would not allow such a great person to be killed by a group of bugs. Besides, this trip must be dangerous, and you will need protection."

"Do you think your mother and I are weak? Still need your protection?"

Mrs. Jin Jian glanced at her daughter strangely, and said:

"Didn't you listen to what I just said? If things happen in Dalaran, I will have the most powerful warrior in the world to protect me"

Seeing her daughter's still ignorant face, the madam sighed helplessly, and reached out to tap her smooth forehead.

Say:

"Don't disturb my old relationship with your father, you silly boy. With him by my side, I won't be in danger, so you just stay at home.

You are not allowed to show up at will until I have a good talk with him.

I haven't figured out the strange power in you yet. That younger brother of yours is too reckless, he dares to put anything in your body. That pure divine arcane does make you stronger, but I'm not sure if it affects you.

Stay home and be good. "

Fenna still wanted to defend herself, but she heard Jin Jian's mother say again:

"This time, in addition to Prince Kael'thas, there are also the Archmage Manroth sent by the Parliament, the Royal Guard Salorian Dawnwalker, the Ranger King Hawksbill, and the Baron of Blood.

This is already an extremely powerful force, and there are high-level spellcasters like me, as well as Miss Vereesa of the Windrunner family and other representatives of the great nobles.

This is not just a conservation action, it is a political action.

You're too young, Fenner, for this occasion, stay home and don't worry me. "

"Ok."

Fenna Jinjian nodded, seemingly obeying the order, but actually concealed the news that Bu Laike was about to visit.

Mom is going to meet her old lover.

Ms. Fenner, who has been poisoned by reading third-rate novels, has already completed tens of thousands of words of plots in her mind.

She believes that her brother with a bad personality will definitely not want to miss this classic scene, and when the time comes, she will say that Braike tricked her into boarding the boat and going to Dalaran together, no matter what happens, it has nothing to do with her.

Well, the plan works, so do it!
