Lost In Azeroth

   Chapter 20 Syndicate

  There are many beasts in the mountains and forests. It is not difficult to hunt. Of course, in this magical world of Azeroth, if you are not careful, you may encounter powerful monsters.

  Su Chen soon harvested two rabbits and a snake, and also found a deer.

   He had to rely on a lot of food to keep his brain alive, so naturally the more prey the better, even if he chased after the bushes.

   Arthas has a good physique. Even though the paladins in the game are famous for their short legs, in the real world of Azeroth, his speed is not slow.

   To his surprise, he was about to catch up with the deer, but two men in black suddenly jumped out of the woods.

   "Stop, robbery!" The two were extremely direct, and immediately flashed their daggers.

   "Robbery?" Su Chen couldn't help but be speechless. He didn't expect to encounter robbers here.

   "Boy, obediently hand over the things on your back, maybe we can spare your life and let you go to the mine to be a slave." The two robbers played with the daggers in their hands quite proudly.

   "You... want something on my back?" Su Chen was slightly startled, but Frostmourne was on his back!

   Could someone already know their secrets and pretend to be a robber to attack Frostmourne's idea?

   "Don't be too wordy, hurry up and bring it, it's been a long time since I met a fat sheep like you!" One of the robbers said that he had already forced him with a dagger, and immediately wanted to take the sword box on Su Chen's back.

Su Chen immediately punched out instinctively, and saw that guy immediately flew backwards like a kite with a broken string, until he hit a big tree before he threw himself forward heavily on the ground without even screaming. With a sound, he passed out.

"Is this... is it really a roadside robber?" Su Chen couldn't help but be dumbfounded. It seemed that he thought too much. These two are really small road robbers who are blocking the road and robbing here, but the sword box on his back may be too large. Eye-catching, they were mistaken for heavy cargo.

   No wonder Xiao Hei did not provide an early warning. Obviously, the strength of these two little robbers is too low and they have been automatically filtered out.

   At this moment, the other person also wanted to come forward to **** it, but after a little delay, he saw his accomplice being punched and flew away. He was immediately scared and bloodless, and he turned around and prepared to apply oil on the soles of his feet.

   However, Su Chen just needed to find someone to ask for directions, and was immediately rushed up by a lunge and caught him.

"Brother, no, uncle... Please let me go, this is the first time I came out to rob, and I have eighty..." The robber didn't resist at all, he threw the dagger in his hand, and immediately broke his legs. A soft.

   "Don't be long-winded, I don't have time to kill a little scoundrel like you. As long as you answer my questions honestly, I will let you live."

"Question... My name is Fay. I just joined the syndicate last week. I used to belong to the Garcia family and lived in Jarvan Heights. I have five brothers at home..." The robber hesitated for a while, but he didn't When Su Chen asked the question, he started to explain it like a bamboo tube pouring beans.

   "Syndicate?" Su Chen couldn't help but be startled when he heard the words. This was a force he was quite familiar with, and it seemed that their main area of ​​activity was indeed in the Alterac Mountains.

   In World of Warcraft, syndicates are low-level humanoid monsters, but in this real Azeroth, Su Chen did not dare to underestimate this force.

   You must know that the hostile force of the Syndicate is Ravenholdt Manor!

  Ravenhold Manor is also known as the League of Assassins, and only outstanding assassins and thieves are invited to join.

   And if a syndicate can fight against the best group of assassins and thieves in the entire continent, it needs at least some strength of its own.

   Of course, the strength of this syndicate rookie in front of him is unbelievably low, and it seems that he is no better than an ordinary soldier.

   "Do you know the road going north through Alterac?" Su Chen grabbed his chest and lifted it up.

   His primary purpose was still to quickly go north to find Uther, and he was reluctant to get involved in this syndicate who didn’t know the specifics.

   "Know...know something."

   "Well, as long as you can take me there, I will let you go, and I will reward you heavily in the future."

  Su Chen soon returned to the ruined hut where Ilucia was with the prey and captives.

   At this moment, she has raised a small bonfire, and she immediately greeted Su Chen happily.

However, when she found the prisoner behind Su Chen, she couldn't help showing doubts. After Su Chen explained the situation, Ilucia's eyes showed some pity, and she whispered: "The members of the syndicate are actually Many of the nobles of the former Alterac Kingdom were also expelled when the kingdom was destroyed. In addition, most of the original Alterac Kingdom's lands were annexed to Lordaeron and Dalaran Kingdoms, so they Many of them had to embark on the path of theft and robbery, which Dalaran knew all too well, but since the Syndicate was looting pedestrians and fighting ogres in the Alterac Mountains, Dalaran has not dealt with them for now."

   "Oh..." Su Chen naturally understood why she had sympathy for the Syndicate, after all, the Barov family was also brought down by it.

   After hurriedly eating two roasted rabbits and roasted snake meat, Su Chen immediately caught the rookie robber named Feixie and led the way north.

  Ilucia was still quietly following behind her, looking soft and weak at all, not like an archmage.

  Because of the local guide, the road to the north finally went a lot smoother. Quite often, this guy named Fessi even offered to take them some shortcuts up the mountain.

   As it got late and the night fell, the surrounding environment had changed from verdant jungle to snow-capped, and the two of them were already on top of the Alterac Mountains.

   "There will be ogres and snowmen further ahead. We usually only go here, and I don't know the way forward." Fauci said with some fear.

   "Well, you can leave. If we meet again in the future, I will give you a bag of gold coins." Su Chen did not continue to embarrass the rookie robber, and waved him to leave freely.

"Thank you very much." It seemed that he really came from a noble family. Before leaving, Fei Xi did not forget to bow down to thank him. At the same time, he also said to Elusia in a period of time: "The road ahead is windy and slippery, and it is not suitable for walking at night. It's better to find a place to rest and continue north tomorrow."

   "Where is the resting place on this mountain?"

   "The Syndicate has recaptured some places from the ogres, and some powerful nobles have now returned to the Alterac Kingdom to restore the castle. The lady may be able to ask them for help." Fauci suggested.

  Because the altitude of the Alterac Mountains is too high, and the temperature is even lower at night, not long after the rookie robber left, Su Chen and the two encountered a big snowstorm.

Due to his strong physique, Su Chen didn't care about the wind and snow. After all, he had been alone in the Arctic continent for a few months, but Ilucia, who was wearing thin clothes, was already shivering from the cold and sneezing from time to time. , so when the outline of a castle appeared in the night, he decided to spend the night here, and by the way, he could ask the owner here about the road ahead.

   The two quickly approached the castle. In the dark, it seemed to be a recently restored castle. Since it was built on the hillside, it seemed to be integrated with the entire mountain in the dark.

"Most of the buildings in the Kingdom of Alterac are built on the mountain, and the stone used to build the castle comes from this mountain, so it seems that the color and style are almost integrated into one, and some nobles will also put the entire mountainside Hollow it out and build a solid underground fortress." Ilusia smiled and said in a low voice, the Barov family is the largest noble family in Alterac, and they are naturally quite familiar with this place.

   "Oh, where was your former castle?" Su Chen asked curiously.

"It's on Broken Mountain, only a little lower than Alterac's palace, but the interior decoration of our house is even better than the palace." Perhaps it was recalling the scene when the family was not yet decayed when I was a child, even if it was freezing cold. She shivered, but her smile was obviously much more than before.
