Azeroth Shadow Trail

Chapter 624 177. The collapse of ambition

In the middle of the night, the stinky pirate who lay dead in the forest woke up from the cold.

He got up naked from the extinguished bonfire, and his first reaction was to grab his luggage and equipment. After tapping, he found that all the important items were there, which made the pirate heave a sigh of relief.

He was really overshadowed by Maiev's looting, and he was afraid that he would also be robbed this time and lose everything.

Then he couldn't cry anymore.

"The water chain of the dark sea, and the piece of Azzinoth was taken away by that stinky woman!"

Laike put on the robe of the Corruptor, and threw a brimstone fire to re-ignite the bonfire emitting smoke in front of him. While the flames were dancing, he said bitterly:

"Huh? This time she only took two things? Is this considered 'progress'?"

"No, my little master, she took another thing with her."

Xal'atath whispered in Bu Laike's ear:

"Your little rubbish 'inner demon' was taken away by her, Kasanatier is really miserable, if left in the hands of such a guy, it won't even have a chance to escape back to the Twisting Nether.

But it doesn't matter, the false and weak demon is dead, and I, the warm and dignified real demon, will accompany you. "

"That's nothing, it's just less trouble."

Bu Laike picked up the moonblade, rubbed it slightly on his fingertips, and said in a mocking tone:

"Casanatier put on airs, pretended to be stupid, and plotted rebellion. It thought it could hide it from me, but that bastard dared to bargain with me. It really gave it face!

Now that it has connected with Mal'Ganis, the "faithful servant" of Emperor Denathrius, its existence is dispensable.

Isn't it the Dreadlord?

There are a lot of them in the Twisting Nether, and there is no shortage of them.

When I am free, I will draw a more useful SSR from the 'Burning Legion Limited Card Pool'.

Speaking of which, what happened after I passed out? Why did that stinky woman leave me here alone? Didn't she want to take me away? "

"Of course it's because your loyal servant attacked her subordinates."

Xalatas said respectfully:

"I flew over the coast with the black dragons, and I happened to find a warden escorting a group of 'prisoners' to the beach, and among those prisoners were two of my 'citizens'.

Then the angry black dragons attacked her.

Although Ms. Nasa is powerful, she cannot resist a group of manic black dragons at the same time. In order to ensure that the prisoners will not be released, she can only ask for support.

From this point of view, Maiev Shadowsong is really a qualified leader.

She cares about her subordinates, and your ruthlessness is just two extremes. "

"well done."

Bu Laike was a little skeptical though.

However, what Xalatas said was difficult to refute, whether it was based on logic or facts. He only needed to go to the place Miss Void said to see the truth.

With Xalatas' cunning, if he really wanted to lie to him, he would never use such a clumsy lie.

So it probably does.

"You can't do without a woman by your side. Let's see this time, little master. You need to strengthen your defenses. Why don't I bring the black dragons to join you?"

Xalatas also suggested:

"Anyway, after witnessing Deathwing's failure and fleeing, they are now in a mess, without a leader. With Nefarian not present, I, who successfully escaped with them, can easily seize the leadership of the Black Dragon Legion .

I can 'convince' them to cooperate with your fleet and become an important air force for the undead fleet. "

"Forget it, pirates are enough to be hated by people, I don't want to provoke the anger of the Blue Dragon Corps, besides, Little Xingxing will definitely not agree, he is now the 'savior of Azeroth', a big shot .

As we all know, only one sentence from a big shot is enough to kill a pirate like me. "

Bu Laike waved his hand and said:

"It may be difficult for you to seize the leadership of the Black Dragon Legion. Besides Nefarian, Lady Sinestra, Queen of Deathwing, is still in Grim Batol.

She is the number two of the Black Dragonflight, and you and Nefarian must stand aside.

Next, you go to her, gain her trust, and then act secretly. When necessary, I will contact you. In addition, after the past, remember to send me some dragon servants and goblins.

I want the kind of goblin artisan who has mastered the techniques of smelting sourcemass steel and refining sourcemass gems. "

"Obey, my master."

Xal'atath accepted the task meekly, and before she transferred her consciousness to Onyxia, she asked again:

"Little master, are you going back to the sea next?"

"In a few days."

Bo Laike stood before the flames, pushing the hood of his Corruptor vestments.

Once again defeated by Maiev, but this time he was surprisingly calm.

He looked at the dancing flames in front of him and said:

"I'm over there in Hillsbrad, and I have some business to attend to. Go about your business and leave me alone."

——

In the Hillsbrad hills, when the night was approaching dawn, a large number of orc captives were being held, and several shelters around them were being monitored. Dunholde Castle, where the army was stationed, was very "lively".

General Braike Moore, who ruled this place, was wearing full body armor and was carrying a general's sword, angrily walking up to the castle wall.

Behind him followed a large number of elite warriors from the Kingdom of Stormgard.

In this summer night, the moonlight tonight was exceptionally bright, and almost no need for torches and magic lighting was needed to clearly see what was happening inside the huge castle.

Orcs!

A group of orcs from nowhere are attacking here.

They came quietly, using very "advanced" airborne tactics.

The red dragons rented from the Dragonmaw clan crossed the castle at low altitude, and a large group of greenskins jumped down from them, causing chaos in the entire castle almost instantly.

If it's just a simple green skin, it's not terrible.

In the current situation where the green skins are generally suffering from magic blood disease, even if a group of orcs still retain the fighting spirit, their combat effectiveness will definitely not be as exaggerated as in the orc war.

But the problem is that it's not just the Blackrock orcs under Chief Red who are carrying "plunder indicators" who attacked the castle tonight, but also an extremely capable Kor'kron guard.

Commanded by the legendary warrior brothers Saurfang.

Well, just listening to their leader's name, one can tell that Durnholde Castle is likely to be doomed tonight.

"Why hasn't the barracks come to support?"

General Bo Laike Moore, who was standing above the castle to observe the enemy's situation, saw the orcs raging below, and suddenly became angry. He turned around and shouted to the colonel behind him. The latter shook his body and said with a pale face:

"General, the barracks has been breached.

According to the soldiers who escaped, they were attacked by Blackrock orcs, an orc warlord who called himself the "Great Chief" commanded them, and warlocks summoned demons. "

"There are a thousand people there!"

Brad Laike Moore yelled:

"It took less than ten minutes for the orcs to attack, even if it was a thousand pigs."

"One of those orcs was a legendary hunter who summoned bears and porcupines on a rampage, and our ammunition depots were destroyed in minutes.

He also has a damned giant eagle, our gryphon rider is no match for that brute.

General, it's not that the soldiers don't resist. We can't fight against that kind of orc. He is not affected by magic blood disease at all. "

The balding old colonel explained in a low voice to Bo Laike Moore:

"The orc attack must have been prepared tonight, General, we cannot leave the castle to fight them. Our castle is strong and our firepower is strong, and their numbers are too small to charge up!

As long as we stay here and issue a warning to Tarren Mill, General Gavinrad will soon command the army to come to support, and these orcs will not be able to escape by then! "

"I know!"

The battle-hardened General Bu Laike Moore certainly knows that the best strategy at the moment is to defend and wait for reinforcements.

But for some reason, his heart was beating so fast tonight that he felt like it was going to jump out of his chest. He stood on the edge of the castle wall, leaning on his sword, and touched his chest through the general's armor.

That heartbeat was really like a war drum, which made the general feel flustered for no reason.

He looked left and right, and in the dark night sky, there were several huge creatures emerging from the clouds and approaching here.

It's a dragon!

It is a red dragon controlled by the Dragonmaw clan.

"Defense! Fire!"

The general let out a loud roar. During the emergency aiming and firing of the gunners, the specially built anti-aircraft turrets on the castle behind, combined with the explosion of the dwarven mortars, sprinkled a scorching barrage into the air, knocking out those red babies who were trying to sneak attack. The dragon drives away.

This kind of firepower can't deal with adult dragons, but it is very effective against young dragons.

Flexible anti-aircraft firepower, coupled with the Griffin Knight attack. This is what the dwarves figured out by fighting the Dragonmaw orcs in the wetlands in the year after the war.

And the adult dragons in the hands of the Dragonmaw clan are also very limited, and it is impossible for them to use their wealth to support their so-called "citizens".

"You guys, go to the underground prison of the castle and take Sal to my office for protection."

Braike Moore saw a few young dragons being repelled by the artillery barrage, so he only dared to cruise far away at high altitude, and did not dare to come down to attack again, so he felt relieved, called his loyal guard over, and whispered a few words to him .

The tall guard nodded, and quickly walked towards the bottom of the castle with a group of general guards.

The periphery of Durnholde Castle was already in chaos from the orc attack.

The Blackstone orcs opened the military supply warehouse and are frantically moving things out. These guys "practiced" in the city of Lordaeron before, and now they are also good at looting.

Chief Red was sitting between the barracks and the castle. He would be in pain all over his body. He was besieged by the dragonmen under Deathwing before. If Xieyan hadn't saved him, he would have died by now.

Rejoicing for the rest of his life, Red gulped down his wine.

But his mind was not on the battle at all, he was thinking about another thing. I have disclosed the captain's information to Deathwing, will this be regarded as a betrayal by the captain?

Reid was a little worried about gains and losses, and wished he could go to Laike to explain it now.

This will naturally not be in the mood to dominate the battle.

However, tonight's fact is that Red and the others are making such a big fuss here, and it's just to cover the battle of the Saurfang brothers. General Braike Moore thought that the goal of the orcs was to release the green-skinned prisoners in the shelter, but he Big mistake!

Red had no intention of "liberating" his compatriots at all.

The main reason is that his "orthodox tribe" on the other side of the Black Rock Mountain is really too poor. Now that there are so many people who can support them, and if there is a group of big-bellied men who can't fight, Red, the great chief, will not be able to sit comfortably.

From this point of view, our great chief is really self-aware.

He knew he wasn't made to be an orc hero at all, so he didn't try to do it.

"boom"

While Red was thinking about important matters, and his Blackstone orcs were busy looting supplies, a huge explosion suddenly sounded in the inner castle where General Braike Moore was.

It seemed that someone detonated gunpowder under the castle, and the violent explosion shook the whole castle.

Fortunately, it was the general himself who supervised the construction of the castle, which made it very stable. The main body of the castle withstood the explosion, but the internal defense forces suffered heavy damage.

"Damn it! How did they slip in!"

General Bu Laike Moore saw some orcs rushing out of the castle after the explosion, he immediately roared angrily, raised his epee, and rushed towards the direction of the explosion with his guards.

The general's heart will be up and down and restless.

Because the location of the explosion was very close to the underground of the castle, this gave him a bad feeling.

Sure enough, when stepping on the broken bricks and collapsed walls to rush to the explosion position, General Braike Moore saw a tall old orc through the rising smoke and fire, leading his carefully cultivated "King of Orcs" "Saar came out of the underground prison.

And the elite guards he sent to pick Thrall away were disarmed, tied up and thrown aside, and their armor was stripped away by the orcs.

Another legendary orc warrior, Va Locke Saurfang, wielding a black iron battleaxe, strode toward Bo Laike Moore and his guards with his neck loose.

The orc warrior in his prime stared at General Bu Laike Moore and said in a human language with a strange accent:

"Don't look at us with that hateful look, we are not what we used to be, just here tonight to pick up our little compatriots home." Dellas Boo Laike Moore.

We're taking you tonight too.

An 'old friend' of yours asked us to bring you a sentence, saying that your ignorance bothered him.

But it doesn't matter, he has forgiven you generously, and left his relationship to find you a 'new job' elsewhere. He wants you to submit your resignation to the Kingdom of Stormgard with tonight's failure .

Don't worry, Your Excellency General, we have arranged everything, just waiting for you to sign the 'Resignation Letter'. "
