Shadow Trails in Azeroth
Chapter 1073 169. Night talk around the fire·Old Fording’s adventure story (Part 1)
The Silithus incident ended like a dream too good to be true.
Especially for the garrison soldiers of Cenarion Fortress, although they also lost many comrades in last night's battle, the thought of the thousand-year garrison ending at dawn, the feeling of happiness is enough to make the most ruthless warriors fall. tears.
Finally, there is no need to continue to be stationed in this ghost place!
Finally there is no need to stay here and eat sand.
This vast desert may be a terrible place for other people, but for the night elves who love forests and nature, it is a complete hell.
Now that the shadow of the Qiraji Empire has dissipated, Cenarion Fortress may still be retained, but so many people no longer need to be stationed here, and most of the soldiers will be transferred back to the Feralas Jungle with a better environment.
This is no fantasy.
The High Priest of the Moon, who was recuperating in the fortress, had already announced the good news. Because of the taming of the Qiraji, the Desert of Silithus would become a "breeding house" for the Silithids.
The druids will send special personnel to take over the place, and the Sentinel warriors who guard the border for Kaldorei will withdraw one by one to the southern base camp of the Silver Winged Sentinel Legion in the next two months.
This news was enough for the entire fortress to be filled with joy, and some of the desperate warriors who had been tortured by the desert had even begun to pack their luggage.
No one likes this place, except the big bad Black Shaw.
This is really sad news.
This is true in every sense of the word.
"Then, let's sign the agreement, Commander."
In the chief's office of Cenarion Fortress, Black, wearing a classic pirate costume, reached out and signed his name on the bark scroll in front of him.
He looked up at General Marlis, the local commander with a serious face in front of him, and said:
"The Uncrowned Ones will send people to take over Cenarion Fortress as soon as possible. The name here will not be changed, and we will not expel the druids, but from now on, this fortress will belong to the Uncrowned Ones."
"Of course, this is the instruction of the high priest, and we are also willing to offer our goodwill to the friends of Kaldorei."
General Marlis is an elven veteran.
There is a scar on his face that destroys the elf's elegance. It is said that it was left during the Battle of Quicksand, but this scar gave the tall elf warrior in front of him an extra sense of bravery.
He said to Blake in a soldier's crisp tone:
"Your contribution to the continent of Kalimdor will be passed down among the Sentinels. I and all the soldiers in this fortress, as well as all the elves whose bones have been buried here for thousands of years, are grateful for your wisdom.
Of course, we rarely meet friends who are so generous."
At this point, Marlis shrugged and said with a smile:
"I can't understand why this shabby fortress built in the center of the desert is so valuable in your eyes. Your bid is more than five times that of the goblins.
The Sentinels simply could not refuse such generosity.
I'm curious to ask, what do you plan to do with Cenarion Keep after you bought it? "
"I will use it to build me a palace."
Blake coughed and looked out the window, and said seriously:
"An assassin's palace built in the center of a desert isolated from the world.
Only those true assassins who have the most courage and wisdom, are not afraid of life and death, and have a certain creed in their hearts can possibly cross the vast desert to reach the temple of the Uncrowned One.
This would be an alternative choice.
My story will be endowed with a mysterious and legendary color, and my reputation among assassins will rise to the top again. Don't laugh, Your Excellency, this is really my plan.
This will become the base camp of the Uncrowned in Kalimdor.
I know that the wind in this desert is rough enough to hone true strength and upgrade the will into the creed of the soul. "
"Hmm, that sounds good."
It was difficult for General Marlis to understand the weird thoughts of the big pirate in front of him. He could only give a perfunctory compliment and personally sent the "rich man" out of his office.
The general obviously didn't like the place where he had been for a thousand years. The joy on his eyebrows couldn't be hidden from Black. The general was also ready to evacuate this place.
It is said that this general also has a beautiful priest wife.
Any good husband would not let his wife stay in the desert and waste the best of his youth, so Lord Marlis simply agreed to Black's request to spend money to buy Cenarion Fortress, maybe for love?
Gee, this is really touching.
"My little master, have you fallen in love with someone else's wife again?"
Xal'atath whispered in Black's ear:
"I saw that elf priest just now. It was just so-so. Apart from the holy smell on his body, it couldn't even compare to one of Sephiel's fingers.
You really like this evil tone. "
"No, I'm just complaining. It's purely because you think too much."
The pirate had a dull face and answered in his mind:
"And don't bring the topic to Sephiel. I know you feel uncomfortable and feel that Sephiel has taken away your toy, but we have already agreed."
"Hey, who would feel uncomfortable? You underestimate me too much."
Xal'atas said coldly:
"If she wants clothes of that level, she can take them. I can get better ones at any time, just treat them as rewards from me. Besides, I have to win over Sephiel, so that I can be with the annoying person." Maiev has the upper hand in the battle."
"I think you haven't been beaten enough."
Blake complained:
"You still want to be 'loved' by the Moon God again, right? I'm warning you, if you lose it again this time, I won't re-enter Ulduar or Nazjatar to kill an ancient god to save you. .
I owe Odin a huge favor. You know, debts of gratitude are the hardest to repay. "
"What does it mean to owe a favor?"
Xal'atath said dissatisfiedly:
"You helped him kill C'Thun, something that even the Titan Guardians could not do together. You made Odin truly a legend of his kind.
It's him who owes you a favor.
But speaking of it, little master, I should have told you.
I got some little 'surprises' from C'Thun's power. I heard that Tyrande is developing a relationship with her new pet. I can try to use the will of the swarm to enchant her.
My dear little master.
Want to try Tyrande tonight? Why don't you help me make her into 'new clothes'? How exciting. "
"Um"
Blake glanced at the dusk desert night above his head and said:
"Didn't you find that the moonlight is particularly bright tonight? I mean, don't hold me back until you die. If I dare to lay a finger on Tyrande, you and I will die here.
Stop making such hellish jokes. Elune's staring at me, and she's staring at you. I don't think you were able to hide part of the swarm's mind from C'Thun from the Pale Lady. "
"Yeah, it's too risky."
Xalatath said seriously:
"Then let's change the target. How about Lylitha Windrunner? She also has a Qiraji princess insect as a pet. This is much easier. I only need to adjust it slightly, and she can do it tonight."
"Please, leave me alone for a moment."
Blake covered his eyes and said:
"I'm beginning to regret waking you up. Ah, I finally remembered why I resisted you in the first place. Use your evil in the right place, okay?"
"Order received! Evil mode activated!"
Xal'atath changed her tone to a more serious tone and said to Blake:
"The blue dragon prince that you and the idiot little Xingxing rescued had a fragment of C'Thun's will on him. It was still a big piece. I guess he didn't even notice it himself.
But it is very likely that it will become the carrier of C'Thun's will in the future.
Just like the state I was in when I was hiding in the Blade of the Dark Empire.
I can feel your murderous intention towards Aregos, little master, how about we do it now? "
"No, keep it."
Black coughed and showed a perfect smile to the great knight Old Fording who was walking in front of him. While greeting Fording who was in a good mood, he said in his heart:
"Before Arregos could be dealt with, I made a prophecy and arranged its destiny. That guy who was hungry for power would become a stepping stone for the little star to achieve great things.
It's Little Star's trouble, not mine. "
"Hey, I'm in a good mood, Lord Fording."
The pirate waved his hand and said to Old Fording with a cheerful smile:
"Did you find money? Seeing how happy you are, you must have found at least a thousand gold coins, right?"
"No money was found."
Old Fording shook his head.
Because Black's suggestion restored the Light Forging Ceremony and saved His Majesty Fao from the fate of death, the high knight now has good senses about pirates.
He waved his hand, letting the pirate look at the several shining insect emblems in his hand, and said:
"I just found something very interesting. My son Tyran aspires to be a naturalist, and he will definitely like these insect emblems that can only be found in Silithus.
It was the best birthday present he could have gotten. "
"Well"
Black glanced at the emblem in Fording's hand and said in an awkward tone:
"Well, I think your desire to be a good father is great, but your ability to choose gifts is a bit poor. Qiraji people will use these statues as part of evil rituals to please their dark evil god.
Although C'Thun is dead now, these sculptures are still entangled with fragments of the void. It may be difficult for a paladin like you to detect it, but to me, the dark aura they exude is terrifying.
I think this kind of thing may not be suitable for children.
I mean, I understand that we have to have strict requirements for boys, but we need to train little Tyran's willpower to face the corrosion of the void. How about waiting until he is older? "
"Um!"
Fording's expression changed, and the moment he clasped his fingers, several bug-man statues he had spent so much effort to find in his hand were instantly burned by the fire of holy light rising from his palm.
Sure enough, as Black said, the flames emitted when those emblems were lit were lavender.
"hehe"
The Lord Knight smiled awkwardly and was about to change the subject when he saw Blake shaking his head, taking out a red Qiraji crystal from his bag and stuffing it into his hand.
"Birthday gifts are the most anticipated thing for children in a year, so they can't be given away casually."
The smelly pirate picked up his pipe and said to Fording:
“Now, just think of this as a gift from Little Tyran’s Uncle Black.
Qiraji eggs are sealed in this resonance crystal. They only need to be placed in warm soil to hatch. This kind of riding insect is specially trained by the Qiraji people to serve as mounts. It has a docile and loyal character and is still alive. The time is very long.
Can be used as a hunting dog when necessary.
Don't worry about it hurting kids, I think it would be so cool to have a riding bug as a pet as a kid rather than having a regular dog.
This is enough to make little Tailan the most handsome boy among her peers.
This is a red riding bug that I carefully selected. You know, red is a status symbol. "
"It's too expensive, I can't"
The knight was about to decline when he saw the stinky pirate in front of him take out a handful of colorful resonance crystals from his bag and turn around to give them to Grand Duke Mograine who happened to be passing behind him.
Even the rhetoric remains the same.
Talk about what Uncle Blake gave to little Reynold and little Darian as a birthday gift.
The Grand Duke was generous. Not only did he not refuse, he also asked the stinky pirate for some more, saying that he would take them back to make Halloween gifts for the orphan children in Lordaen Monastery.
This scene made Old Fording's eyes twitch, and he put the red crystal into his bag without any courtesy. When he got back, he said that his father had worked hard to find it in the desert, and that his good son would definitely like it.
As for what Uncle Black
whispering sound.
Children should stay away from bad guys, do you understand?
"Hey, why does the great knight look so bad?"
Black chatted with Grand Duke Mograine for a while, and after discussing the education of the two sons of the Mograine family, he turned back to look at Old Fording.
He seemed to see through the Paladin's "dark thoughts" and asked jokingly.
Fording waved his hand and was about to speak when he saw Blake, like magic, take out an exquisite frosted warhammer from his bag. It was a typical insect-man style, with exquisite carvings of desert beetles, but it was very small. It's like a flying hammer for adults.
But for children, it just works as a training hammer.
"Now, this is a birthday gift prepared by Count Fordring for his son, but it is a good thing found in the Qiraji Emperor's treasure house. I have purified the void breath from it.
It's best as a gift for a bratty kid who aspires to do great things. "
Black put the small warhammer into Fording's hand, patted the great knight on the shoulder, and said:
"Now that the gifts have been given and the pleasantries are over, I won't hide my thoughts. Your Excellency, the Grand Knight, I am very interested in your experience in the world of Draenor.
For the sake of the birthday present I prepared for you, please share your story.
I won’t hide it from you. I don’t have an informant in that world yet. The first-hand information you have is very useful to me. We are mutually beneficial. I have paid for it. You will definitely not let me down, right? "
He glanced at the sky and said:
"It won't take long. This conversation will be over before you start your evening prayers."
