Azeroth Shadow Trail

Chapter 463 16. These Northern Trolls Are Really Barbaric

The little star went to Moonglade in Kalimdor to "collect debts" from the druids, so the journey from Grizzly Hills to Zul'Drak had to be done by Laike alone.

Fortunately, he still has a silly little murloc, two war beasts, and a loyal hippogryph to accompany him, which makes this journey not boring.

The Hippogryph flew low above Bo Laike.

In the forest below, the ghost wolf is running wildly, while the big horn is chasing the stupid wolf in the forest with the little murlocs waving flags and cheering on their heads.

However, in terms of speed, the big bear is indeed no match for the stupid wolf. It can be compared with short-distance running, but once it starts to travel long distances, the bear will immediately fail.

But Bear is also cunning.

In terms of familiarity with Grizzly Bear Hills, Stupid Wolf is far inferior to it, so Xiong Xiong chose to take a shortcut, and after bypassing a small hill, he appeared in front of Stupid Wolf instead.

This made Frostpaw very angry.

The game was agreed, why are you still cheating!

Big stupid bear, you are shameless.

So a small-scale tussle began again. The murloc, who didn't mind the excitement, waved his pirate flag during the collision of the two wild beasts, and cheered on while firing.

It likes this kind of exciting and wild fish fun.

Bu Laike didn't disturb the happy time of these three guys. There was no important thing to do in Zul'Drak this time, but he just went to the kingdom of frost trolls in advance.

Stepping on the ground for future events, just as he said to Seifel before, at this stage, the Northland troll empire is still in a strong state.

These savage and warlike frost trolls are extremely powerful. If they are pulled to the Eastern Continent, they are fully capable of launching a large-scale conquest comparable to the orc war.

Relying on the current strength of the pirates alone, it is impossible to realize the dream of attacking the Drakalai Empire.

We can only develop while waiting for opportunities.

There are two roads from the Grizzly Hills to Zul'Drak in the north. One is from Silverbrook Town, the colonial territory of the Gilneas, all the way north, which is an area controlled by trolls.

There is a Dak'Saron Fortress guarding the road to Zul'Drak. That fortress is the most important military facility of the Drakkari trolls. It was built a long time ago to prevent the bears from invading.

There are a large number of elite troll warriors guarding it, so it is not a good place to break through.

And the other way, just northeast of Grizzly Hills, beyond the mountains of Ursoc's lair, is a giant stairway, along with Grizzly Hills and Zul'Drak's troll empire.

This was once a military road built by the troll empire to attack the bear people and launch a large-scale war. However, after a certain battle failed, this broad road was included in the bear people's power.

The trolls have lost control of this place forever.

But the bearmen didn't want to go anywhere. They didn't like the barren and cold land of Zul'Drak.

The bears guarded Grizzly Hills wholeheartedly.

This ancestral land rich in supplies can fully meet all the needs of the bears. If the trolls hadn't taken the initiative to start the war, they would not have wasted time fighting with the stupid trolls.

All things considered, the pirates ultimately chose this route to Zul'Drak.

But when they came to the towering stairs leading to Zul'Drak, the pirates found a guy who had been waiting here.

Tur Ragepaw.

This brave black bear warrior is still wearing the Cenarion vestment, carrying a big burden on his back, it seems to have been waiting here for a long time.

"I thought you ran away."

The pirate drove the wind vulture and landed next to the bear warrior. He joked:

"After all, for an honorable lair guard, it's too shameful to be a human pirate's bodyguard."

"The oath we bears swear is as indestructible as the snow-capped mountains in the Northland."

Tull let out the barbell-like laugh of a bear.

It seems that it has stepped out of the shadow of Ursoc's disaster, and there is also a pendant of broken bear teeth hanging around its neck, representing its nostalgia for Ursoc.

"Since you have helped us bring the painful demigod back to peace, no matter what your status is in your civilization, you will always be our bear people's friend.

I promised you that I will protect you, and I will naturally fulfill my promise. I will protect you like Ursoc, until you die of old age, and then I will return to my hometown and continue my mission. "

Tull patted his chest and said honestly:

"We bear people can live a long time, the elders said, let me take this experience as a journey in life. Just like ten thousand years ago, my people followed Ursoc and Usor to The kingdom of elves against demons."

"Well, I'm still young."

Bu Laike pouted and said:

"You want to wait for me to die, I'm afraid it won't be so easy. Oh, by the way, this thing is for you."

The pirate took out Ursoc's claws from his luggage and handed them to Warrior Bear. The latter's eyes were straightened, and he waved his claws again and again in front of the holy object that the pirate handed over, saying with some fear:

"This is Ursoc's artifact. It has been placed in the Temple of Wrathpaw for thousands of years. After being stolen by the fallen bearmen, it has always brought shame to our tribe.

I can't accept it.

I have neither the qualifications nor the strength to use it. Those bear warriors who tried to master this artifact in the past have all fallen into a madness that cannot control the divine power.

This is blasphemy"

"That's not blasphemy. Those fools are just trying to use the power of the demigod without the demigod's permission."

Boo Laike snorted, thrust Ursoc's claw into Tur's trembling hand, and whistled:

"But you are different. Ursoc left this pair of artifacts and asked me to pass them on to you. Obviously, your god saw your bravery and determination in that battle, and it thought you were qualified to use them.

If you feel unworthy.

Then give me some attention, asshole! Continuous practice, so that one day, I will be worthy of the power of this artifact.

Let me tell you, follow me in the future, and there will be battles for you to fight.

Of course, I know the temper of you god warriors, you will not be allowed to fight in evil battles, only those 'just' battles will let you go forward and fight.

Well, take it, and follow me to Zul'Drak, my incompetent subordinates, who have been waiting there for days.

Uh, let's hope they're lucky enough not to be caught and eaten by the Drakkari trolls

I will not avenge either of them. "

——

"Ah, Captain, you're finally here! I've been waiting to death."

Following the very troll-style stairs, from the grizzly hills to the first village ruins of Zul'dak, the pirates met their incompetent and noisy men.

Zalak, wearing a wooden mask and wearing frost troll-style clothes, would hold the pirate's hand and would not let go.

He seemed to have been wronged, and complained to the captain:

"I agreed to come here as soon as possible. Why did you take so long to come? I was almost caught by those savage bastards and eaten as a barbecue. Fortunately, I was very powerful and summoned demons to kill them.

Captain, let's go quickly.

This Zul'Drak is really not a place for people to stay. The trolls here are really savage. I stayed here for seven or eight days, and I just witnessed more than 20 live sacrifices and cannibalism.

The bandits of Vol'dun and those goddamn unbelievers are less savage than they are.

Serious people who come here!

Hey, who is this brother? This body is awesome, this glove is really powerful, oh, it looks so powerful, come, show me. Ah! "

The humble giant magician wanted to touch Ursoc's claws on Tur Ragepaw's arms. As soon as he raised his hand, the bear grabbed his wrist, and with a light blow, he almost hit the troll's spine broken.

In his struggle, he summoned a hell hound to drive back Tur.

But the bear man didn't use the artifact at all, he slapped it with his paw without looking at it, and slapped half of the vicious hell hound into devil meat sauce.

The paw scared Zarak into a fool.

The giant magician shook his body and didn't dare to resist. The bear man in front of him was obviously a tough guy, and he didn't dare to provoke him. He could only look at his captain as if asking for help.

"Oh, you are hopeless, you trash."

Bu Laike shook his head helplessly, and introduced him:

"This is Tur Rageclaw, the warrior of the Bearman, my new bodyguard. Tull, let him go, this guy is my useless subordinate, let you see a joke."

The bear shrugged, but said nothing.

As a bear man, it had participated in the war between bear men and trolls, so it didn't have a good impression of trolls at all, not to mention, there was a strong dark aura on this oily troll in front of it.

He summons demons to fight on his behalf, adding to Tur's distaste for trolls.

"Where's Dakuru?"

Laike didn't waste time. He looked at the destroyed troll village in front of him. There were bloodstains on the ground and traces of flames around. The destruction should not take long, no more than two days.

He asked a question, Zarak rubbed his wrists and got up, nodded and bowed and said to the captain:

"My men went to track down those cannibals. They launched an attack on the small village where Drakuru was born early yesterday morning, and captured all the trolls in the village.

It looks like a live sacrifice is going to be held. "

"You brought those cannibals here?"

The pirate frowned and asked.

Zarak shook his head hastily and explained:

"It's not us, captain, we kept your order in mind, and we didn't cause any trouble along the way. The village was destroyed, and it has nothing to do with us.

According to Dakuru, the people in his village were completely unlucky.

Recently, it happened to be the day when the Drakkari trolls worshiped their loa gods, and every loa temple was collecting sacrifices for the gods.

The Northland trolls believe that only blood can convey their hearts to the gods, so many creatures suffer from disasters on this day every year.

There are two loa temples nearby. One is dedicated to the goddess of the snow leopard, Hakeya. She is considered a good god, and she only needs fresh beasts from her followers.

But another temple is dedicated to Quesrun, the wind snake god. "

Zarak showed a regretful look, and said to Bo Laike:

"Snake God, it sounds like an evil bastard, all the snake Shendu in this world are bastards, and Haka is just the most evil one among them.

In short, the wind snake known as the 'Patron Saint of the Witty' has a strong taste.

Its favorite sacrifice must be the heart and blood of intelligent life, and it wants a lot.

The nearby wolverine tribe had already fled to the Grizzly Hills, and the believers of the Wind Serpent couldn't find other lives, so they could only attack their own people.

That idiot Dakulu was born near here. He didn't want to give up his fellow tribesmen, so he ran to track them down, and even wanted to drag me to save people.

But I have a more important mission! "

Zarak puffed out his chest and said to the pirate:

"I will wait here faithfully for the arrival of my captain."

"Are there many living sacrifices like this?"

Bu Laike also raised his eyebrows. Although he knew in the game that the Northland trolls are brutal, dark, and can eat people, they won't show them too much in the game after all.

This meeting really came to Zuldak, and it was a bit eye-opening to hear what Zarak said.

"A lot, more than you think, Captain."

The bear man next to Bu Laike also called the pirate by the name of a troll. It introduced Zuldak in the eyes of the bear man to Bu Laike in a tone of disgust and helplessness.

The two races have fought wars for many years and know each other well.

Tur said in a bear man's tone, in a deep voice:

"The Drakkari trolls of Zul'Drak are the nastiest and most savage trolls imaginable.

Our people have also come into contact with other trolls a long time ago, but the frost trolls like Drakalai are generally more rude than other trolls.

These bastards prefer savage and violent subjugation over sitting down and negotiating issues.

They are crueler than you can imagine, ruthlessly using any voodoo spells they know, and worshiping these same bloodthirsty and evil gods in their lands.

They like to eat their enemies.

When necessary, they will even eat their 'friends' and family, raw!

The only language these Drakkari trolls understand is violence, the only thing they worship is power, and the only thing they want from others is fear.

And after the conflict, take their flesh to eat. "

Speaking of this, the bear man's tone was a little helpless, it said:

"Zuldak's land is very barren. Although there are many beasts here, most of the beasts that can live here are sheltered by their loa.

If they want to survive here, they also have to be cruel.

Fortunately for the rest of Northrend, though, the Drakkari trolls have maintained a clan system, making it difficult for them to truly stick together.

Small tribes are spread all over the land of Zuldak, depending on the loa they worship.

Since they occupied this land, they have been constantly waging civil wars. They slaughtered each other, probably just because they ran into each other on their respective frontiers.

Or a bad look, or a yell, or even just because they're hungry and need meat.

Such frequent wars have prevented the population of the Drakkari trolls from increasing, but their strong fecundity keeps their numbers from declining. No matter how tragic the war is, the Northland trolls will not be wiped out.

They will not share this land with anyone, not even their own countrymen. "

The bear man shook his head and persuaded:

"Captain, this is not a good place, and if you have nothing important to do, I advise you not to go too far into Zul'Drak.

You won't find anything of value here but savagery and madness, and the ruins of cities devastated by civil wars, and countless skeletons echoing in mourning. "

"Hmm, sounds like a good place."

Rubbing his chin, Bo Laike said:

"I just might be facing a war. Such barbaric soldiers are very suitable for my needs. Let's go, let's take a look around this ignorant land.

Don't worry, I won't stir up trouble now.

Not yet. "
