Shadow Trails in Azeroth

Chapter 1374 7. Metal Gear Solid: The Storm of Gilneas [820]

When Blake and his professional team left Tol Barad, in the Fight Club, Queen Mia endured the discomfort in her heart and watched the fighting in front of her.

The good news is that Arugao and Hagasa completed an impossible massacre two against eight.

The bad news is that Queen Mia really doesn't feel that she has the ability to command such killers and butchers to overthrow her husband's dark rule and take over Gilneas.

Especially when Arugao and Hagasa are summoned to her box.

Although both the werewolf and the female orc had changed into clean clothes, the bandages on their bodies, the strong smell of blood, and the cold eyes they had become during the constant fighting made the queen very uncomfortable.

She is not a delicate lady.

She had even fought against the orcs in the city of Lordaeron with Jean, but she had no experience of dealing with such a vicious guy.

Therefore, Queen Mia chose the most direct response method after being silent for more than ten seconds.

She tried hard to maintain her aura as a queen, holding a glass of blood-red wine, sitting on a chair with her legs crossed, and looking at the two guys in front of her.

she says:

"I am Queen Mia Greymane. Both of you should know me. I want to do something in Gilneas and I need help. My close friend and collaborator, Lord Black Shaw, recommended you two to me."

These words made Arugao and Hagasa's eyes light up.

Because these two unlucky guys failed their mission in Gilneas, they have been living almost like hell in the past month.

They also know that their humiliating defeat has made their colleagues in the undead fleet very unhappy with them, so they can only hide in the fight club and be punished, fighting to the death and boxing for a living.

Arugal has completely given up on human form.

Once a mage, he was forced out of all his potential by continuous battles. His werewolf face was covered with scars, which gave him a fierce aura.

And the same goes for the female orc Hagatha next to him.

As a shaman and warlock, she was forced by the brutal battle to completely transform into a dark shaman, and she became more and more proficient in summoning various evil creatures in the "Book of Ur".

But these two guys are also ambitious.

Those who have been able to survive in Black's fleet until now cannot be law-abiding guys. They don't want to sink like this.

They have been waiting for a chance to make a comeback.

And now, the opportunity is at hand.

The light in the eyes of these two guys did not hide from Queen Mia's gaze. When she saw the longing eyes, the still panicked Queen suddenly calmed down.

She knew that both men's desire for revenge would serve them to their advantage.

Then the queen sneered, put down her glass, and said:

"But after learning about what happened to you two in the past, I began to doubt your abilities. You established the Wolf Cult in Gilneas, which seemed majestic, but was destroyed by my husband overnight.

You don't seem to be particularly capable people. "

"That was a shameful mistake, Your Majesty, and we will not excuse our foolish failure."

Arugao moved his shoulders and teeth and whispered:

"But my friends and I already know the price of failure. As long as you give us a chance, we will give you a victory. All I need is a chance to prove myself."

"What I'm more curious about is, what do you need us to do for you?"

The orc dark shaman beside the werewolf shadow archmage raised her eyebrows. One of her eyes was blinded in the brutal battle, but this did not destroy her dark deterrence.

The increasingly gloomy and powerful female orc said in a hoarse voice:

"Only by knowing the goal can we serve you better, Your Majesty."

"Goal? Very simple."

Queen Mia moved her neck and pushed her hair.

She took a sip of the strange-tasting blood-red wine in her hand and tried to force herself to swallow the unknown ingredients to increase her momentum.

Then, she stood up and said to the two people in front of her:

“I want to overthrow the rule of my mad husband, I want to bring order back to Gilneas, which is now in chaos, and I want to become the first queen in the history of Gilneas.

I have obtained the plan he carefully planned for me from Black Shaw. I convinced him to help me with all his strength, but I also need to have the power to show my hand.

After seeing your fighting with my own eyes, I have no doubts about your fighting ability.

But what I'm curious about now is, will you be the kind of assistant I need? "

"Are you going to challenge Jean?"

Arugao and Hagatha looked at each other, their three eyes shining with the flames of ecstasy and revenge.

The werewolf whispered:

"Are you going to overthrow the mad tyrant who has brought endless shame to us two? And you are also assisted by the captain's terrible 'dark wisdom'?

Well, this is great. "

"We will do our best to serve you, Your Majesty, this is what we have been dreaming about, whether it is a comeback, revenge, or revenge."

Female orcs are more direct.

She knelt down on one knee and shouted to Queen Mia:

"As long as you can lead us to defeat damn Jean, we are willing to pay everything for you."

"Except for loyalty!"

Arugao immediately kicked the female orc companion who spoke so eloquently, and emphasized loudly:

"Our loyalty has long been dedicated to the evil and great Black Shaw and the Undead Fleet! But everything we have left belongs to you, and we are at your disposal."

"Ah, yes, yes."

The female orc also discovered the mistake in her words and hurriedly changed her words:

"Other than Lord Blackshaw, you are the only queen we serve."

But this answer did not satisfy Queen Mia.

The queen frowned and said:

"Why bother? Black Shaw doesn't need your loyalty, he doesn't care about that stuff at all."

"The captain does not need our loyalty"

Aru shrugged and whispered:

"But we must be loyal. We, the humble ones, cannot afford the price of betrayal. In fact, the same goes for you, Your Majesty the Queen. As a pirate collaborator, you will understand this in the future.

So, Your Majesty, when shall we set off?

I really don’t want to stay in this hell called ‘Fight Club’ for a day. "

——

"Ouch!"

The low and long howls of wolves echoed one after another in the night that was about to dawn. Under the cover of the dark night, groups of weird and twisted figures ran in groups on the streets and the eaves on both sides.

They are enjoying the freedom and the release of their beastly nature brought by darkness. This is not a hunt, but the wild beasts "having fun" in the second half of the night.

They looked happy, enjoying the feeling of dominating this large ring-shaped city built at the end of the bay.

But for the few ordinary people left in this city, this time of day is definitely the most difficult.

In other kingdoms, civilians should be enjoying sleep and welcoming the morning sun. They must hold weapons in hand and guard their rooms vigilantly, or hide in the cellar of their home with their equally fearful family members.

The family huddled together and shivered, praying to the Holy Light or some other hellish belief, so that the fearful running in the darkness would end quickly, and praying for bright sunshine to take over the sky.

Although they knew very well that the city seemed normal in the daytime, the strangers they passed by might also be one of those monsters.

But at least under the sun, those monsters will put on gentle human faces.

After King Zeon returned to this country a few months ago with his so-called "redemptive power", after returning to this city, it has become a common habit of the residents of the Royal City of Gilneas not to travel at night.

Even naughty children know that once their family goes out at night, it means they may never come back.

Therefore, "going out" has become synonymous with "danger" in the eyes of children.

"Shua"

Blake's figure emerged from the alarming darkness.

He appeared on the eaves of a street in the Royal City of Gilneas not far from the royal palace. He maintained a half-crouched posture at the end of the roof, holding the rubble with claw marks in front of him with his left hand, looking at the palace in the darkness ahead.

A black cloak draped over his shoulders and body, covering most of his body.

This look makes the pirate look cold and professional.

Behind him, Maiev, who also spread her watcher's cloak and silently glided down from high altitude, held a thorn blade wheel in her hand and protected behind the pirate with her back to the pirate.

The two of them formed a standard alternating cover formation when they landed, which shows the exquisite cooperation.

Maiev looked at the city behind her. The noise caused by the monsters running in the dark could not be hidden from the warden's perception.

"This city has been occupied by werewolves. They regard it as their own territory. I don't even need to look carefully. There are at least three hundred werewolves active in the six nearby blocks."

Maiev whispered:

"Based on this ratio, the werewolves in this city already account for two-thirds of the residents here! This is already a dangerous city of wolves.

Its danger level ranks among the top three in the entire Azeroth. "

"So now I am more certain that my 'Aunt Mia' will never rely on her own luck to escape from this city to the border of Silver Pine Forest, where she also met little sister Caitlin.

This density of wolves is enough to eliminate any 'lucky' elements. "

Blake stood up on the eaves.

The cold wind of the night blew the cloak covering his body, and the pirate whispered in a strange tone:

"I have always doubted the authenticity of the conclusion that 'Jean has gone completely crazy', and now it seems that I have found enough evidence.

It has been more than three months since he brought the Luna Scythe to this city, but there are still one-third of the ordinary people left here. This is simply a miracle.

Perhaps, Gene was not ignored.

Perhaps the cunning Jean is also planning some plans that only he knows about. "

"We'll find out when we see him."

Maiev did not discuss the issue.

She muttered a magical spell in a low voice, and when she closed her eyes and opened them again, she easily captured the guidance signs left on the road to the palace by the fallen watchers who had set off in advance.

She left here in a flickering manner, crossed the dark street and appeared on the other side, running silently in the night like a ghost. After three or two steps, she flickered forward, moving as fast as flying close to the ground.

Black followed closely with the same posture. The pirate swords on his waist felt the weakness of the werewolves jumping up and down around him, and he suddenly became arrogant.

They showed eagerness to attack and even wanted to sing a pirate song to their evil master. However, they were slapped on the hilt by Blake, which immediately calmed them down.

asshole!

Didn't you see that he was playing stealth with his "prisoners"?

Although Blake and Maiev can easily kill from one end of Gilneas City to the other in ten minutes together, and maybe even the werewolves in the entire city can't hurt them, but do you understand the mood?

After getting used to the powerful posture, it doesn't hurt to return to the simple and unpretentious assassin's way from time to time.

Hey, there is really no need for such a dull weapon!

The two masters disguised themselves as assassins for reconnaissance, and easily bypassed the walls of the Gilnean Palace. Amid the patrols of a large number of dark werewolves, they easily slipped into the palace where Genn Greymane was. .

The whole process did not attract any attention, and it was a perfect sneak.

But it’s not that easy going forward.

"My beast is roaring, and the Scythe of Luna is ahead."

Blake rubbed his forehead and took Maiev's wrist. The two of them were hidden in a narrow shadow under the palace corridor, almost hugging each other and huddled here.

He whispered into Maiev's long ear:

"I also sensed Jean's aura. This old boy's strength has risen very quickly, and he is already suspected of being the Chosen One. But the animalistic smell on his body is really strange.

Like Goldrinn, but with unabashed cruelty and darkness.

Queen Mia's information was correct.

It seems that Genn and Laral Flamefang are really trying to create an evil god. "

"This news needs to be recorded."

Maiev moved her neck uncomfortably. She felt her ears were a little hot. She took out the Watcher's scroll to record the news in front of her and said:

"It is up to the professional druids to judge the evil gods. Let's not move forward. Although I am very confident in my and your concealment skills, in front of a veteran God's Chosen like Laral Flamefang Just don't take the chance.

This is not what we came here for tonight.

Where are those children? "

"Shh!"

The pirate made a silent gesture.

He held Maiev in his arms and took out a very strange mechanical creation from his hands. He put it on the wall and took out the earplugs carefully made by the mechanical gnomes and handed it to Maiev.

Each person put it on their ears, and the chatter in the distant palace soon became clear under the strange audio track adjustment.

"This is Mechagon's radio. Let's listen to the conversation between Jean and Yanfang first."

The pirate whispered.

A few seconds later, the two heard King Jean's deep voice ringing from the distant palace:

"Wolf Shepherd! I have already told you that my soldiers are hunting down the fugitives. There is no need for the Wolf Cult, which you took over as commander, to get involved! You also sent people to sneak into Tarren Mill and Southsea Town?

Are you crazy?

Once discovered by the defenders there, we have to start our plan in advance!

We are not ready yet. "

"So how long do you have to prepare? Gene."

Another voice responded in the palace. He spoke the very ancient Salas language. Blake and Maiev looked at each other. They were basically sure that this was Laral Flame who escaped from the seal of the Emerald Dream. tooth.

"Isn't his nickname "Head Wolf"?"

Maiev whispered:

"Why does the title of 'Wolf Shepherd' feel so weird?"

"I asked the same question to a dark werewolf in the Howling Valley of Ashenvale before. It told me that the name was modified by Flamefang himself, and that Flamefang sent them to Mount Hyjal to pollute Goldrinn's shrine."

Blake explained in a low voice, but Maiev immediately raised her hand and pinched his neck. The warden of the Watcher said in a scolding tone:

"Why didn't you say something so important earlier!"

"You didn't even ask."

The pirate replied a little aggrievedly, and then reached out and patted Maiev's buttocks. Unfortunately, he was wearing armor and there was no feeling at all.

Hey, armor and stuff are the most annoying.
