Shadow Trails in Azeroth

"This request."

Facing Blake's threat, Kelsey seemed hesitant.

Although the stinky pirates left a bottom line, they did not prohibit the dwarfs from upgrading their own technology to make weapons for the alliance, but only required that the dwarfs not use Mechagon's black technology.

In other words, if the gnomes themselves develop weapons that surpass Mechagon's engineering theory, they can also be used in the weapons they make.

But that will definitely take a long time!

According to the Artisans Council's own estimation, they may need more than ten years of technological accumulation before they can break through the shackles of various technologies and catch up with Mechagon's basic technology.

This means that even if the gnomes try their best to help Daelin build the ship, the navy of Kul Tiras and even the entire Alliance will still lag behind the military technology of the Undead Fleet for a long time.

Although the gnomes are not keen on war, as the commander Kelsey Steelshine can understand the weakness of the alliance when facing the undead pirates in this situation.

As a member of the alliance, this made Kelsey very hesitant, and this hesitation was immediately captured by the "understanding" Black.

"I know that the materials and support I just provided are not enough to make you make up your mind. After all, you dwarves are a democratic government and everything must be discussed."

Blake shrugged.

He took out a piece of his personal seal, threw it to Kelsey Steelshine, and said:

"Take this thing and go back and tell Gelbin Mekkatorque, the King of Craftsmen, that as long as you agree to my request, Gnomeregan will become a 'permanently neutral country' in the future. I, my subordinates and my The fleet will protect the gnomes from anyone and from any war.

Of course, I don't want you to be my high-intelligence slaves, my dear gnomes.

This is just a prudent protection.

After all, in the next era, you senior intellectuals are the ‘strategic resources’ that all parties are competing for, and your safety must be guaranteed.

besides"

The smelly pirate lowered his voice and said to Kelsey:

"You are wondering what the dwarves are doing in Northrend, right? Let me tell you quietly, they are running to find the city of their ancestors.

It is the legendary ‘City of Creation’!

There are many black technologies of the Titan Guardians, don’t you want to learn something from them? Your ancestors also came from that city.

As long as you agree to my request, I can take you with me when I step into that city.

All the knowledge there will be open to you!

What we are discussing is knowledge!

Isn't this what the gnomes have been pursuing? Idiots all say that dwarves have no faith, no, no, no, you do! Knowledge is your faith.”

The pirate's sensational and emotional words had a miraculous effect, impressing Kelsey almost immediately.

The little dwarf nodded and said nothing more. She just promised that she would return to Gnomeregan immediately and convey the pirates' request to the Council of Craftsmen. She also said that she would do her best to promote the achievement of this matter.

Blake felt contented.

While watching Kelsey gathering the small people in the surrounding forest who were roaring and trying to attract the werewolves to transform them into wolf dwarfs, and to immediately end this pointless and stupid attempt, Blake felt that he could finally be helpless. Concerned about leaving Gilneas, which was already in chaos.

He and Hisari Black Crow agreed on the time and place of the operation, and made contact signs. The Uncrowned Ones from all over northern Xinjiang were also quickly gathering towards Gilneas.

On the afternoon of the second day after the pirates returned to Tol Barad, Queen Mia returned to the eastern continent on time.

In the teleportation hall of Narthalas College, Black, several children and Lady Catherine were waiting to welcome the arrival of the future Queen of Gilneas.

As the light from the portal in front of him shimmered and floated like rugged waves, the tall figure appeared in the light.

The queen is still the same queen, with a hot figure and elegant temperament. Even her attire has not changed. She still wears the merchant's dress and top hat that Gilneas ladies like to wear.

She was also holding a black gold-encrusted cane in her hand as she walked towards her.

Everyone found this mature lady to be extremely beautiful.

But Blake could see more.

In the floating sea-blue eyes, he could see that Queen Mia had been transformed, and an explosive power was hidden in this lady's seemingly slender body.

It is no exaggeration to say that now she can easily crush a werewolf's head with her hands.

"Mother!"

When he saw Queen Mia emerging from the portal, Prince Liam, who had been waiting on the island for two or three days, wiped away his uncontrollable tears and rushed towards his mother.

Little Lorna also wiped her eyes and rushed forward.

The only daughter of Lord Darius had lost her mother since she was a child. She was also brought up by Queen Mia. In her heart, the queen was no different from her mother.

"Hey, you two brats, be careful!"

Blake later "kindly" reminded:

"I don't know how well your mother has mastered the new power. You'd better not hug her or anything. She can strangle a cow with her slender hands now.

If you push too hard in excitement, your beautiful reunion will turn into a tragic farewell. "

"Can't you say something nice?"

Lady Catherine, who was also wiping tears next to Blake, cursed and kicked her son who was talking too much.

This pirate governor's wife has probably been managing a group of vulgar pirates for a long time, and even her original noble lady style has become much rougher. The kicked pirate dared not speak out in anger, so he had no choice but to shut his mouth.

As for the return of her old best friend, Lady Catherine was very happy, so she hugged Princess Tess, who was giggling in her arms, and walked towards Mia.

The queen also showed her emotions at this time.

With her beautiful eyes red, she held back her tears and squatted down to hold her son and daughter in her arms, kissing their foreheads and hair.

When she was forced to flee the Royal City of Gilneas alone, she really couldn't describe her worry and concern for her children. Fortunately, the family was finally reunited safely.

"Look at little Tess, look at how happy she is smiling. She also knows that her mother is back."

Catherine emotionally handed over Princess Tess in her arms to Queen Mia, who took her daughter over like a baby and touched her plump face with her hand.

She raised her head and said to Catherine:

"Thank you, Catherine. I will never forget the shelter and help you gave me and my children in my life."

"Hey, Your Majesty, am I the one helping you?"

Blake squeezed the wine bottle and said in an unhappy tone:

"My mother only helped you take care of the children for two days, but I went through life and death to help you save these three little guys. Didn't you even say thank you?

This is really chilling. "

"I paid you, Black. I have agreed to all your reasonable and unreasonable demands and am ready to fulfill them."

Queen Mia held her little daughter and said to Blake with a straight face:

"I feel like I don't have to say thank you in a pretentious way after I've given so much, but if you, a weakling pirate, really need it.

Well, thank you for your service to Gilneas, although I did pay for it. "

"Tsk, tsk, Gilnean women are so fierce and bold, but they are also as tough and strong as our Kul Tiras women."

Blake snorted and said:

"Seeing the happy look in front of me, a bad guy like me would be moved, but I think whispering to the children can wait until the real business is done.

Your druid friends have gathered in the Black Forest and are ready to raid the royal city at any time.

Your loyal noble cannon fodder has also been deployed on the border. As long as you give the order, they can fight for the pure-blood heritage of Gilneas.

Your friends in the Church of Holy Light have also convinced the old kings of Lordaeron and Stromgard, and their border legions set off in two directions last night.

I have prepared everything you need. With my help, you can overthrow the dark and crazy rule of your cruel husband at any time, and beat back the wolf cubs who are brewing conspiracies in the dark. In the nest, let them howl and surrender to you with fear.

These attentions prove that the reward you have been talking about is not in vain. I guarantee that every penny will be put into practice. My only question now is, as the protagonist of this war, are you ready to take it with you? Are you going to prepare a "bad confession" with your husband? "

The pirate grinned, showing his strong white teeth, and said:

"Let me be more direct. My dear Queen Mia, as a hunter, are you ready to tame a wolf king? Do you want me to prepare a whip for taming animals?"

"No need."

Queen Mia kissed little Tess gently on her forehead and handed her to Lady Catherine. She held the cane in her hand and took another look at her excessively fair arm skin.

she says:

"I've said goodbye to the weakness of the past, Blake Shaw, and I feel like I'm ready for anything.

The weak men have failed in their oath to protect us and our country, and now it is time for the women of Gilneas to step up and solve the problem.

Without further delay, let's go. "

"Very good! This makes her look a bit like a queen."

The pirate laughed.

The moment he walked out of the portal hall, Blake looked towards the quiet sea far down the mountain. As he watched, a black ghost ship slowly emerged from the bottom of the water.

He could even see the tall figure of the reassuring and nostalgic first mate standing on the deck.

He made a "please" gesture to Queen Mia behind him and said:

"Then, please board your ship. We will sail directly to the Royal City of Gilneas and put an end to Genn Greymane's failed rule tonight.

When the first ray of sunshine shines tomorrow morning, we will hold a coronation ceremony for you in that blood-soaked city.

Look, I've even got the crown ready for you.

As the first queen in the history of the seven human kingdoms, I think you should prepare a declaration or something, and also come up with a loud slogan.

Like 'Make Gilneas great again'? "

"Well, that's a good slogan. It's both straightforward and powerful! I like it."

Queen Mia clenched her fist and made a shocking explosion. She looked in the direction of Gilneas and said:

"Let's go, let's kill Jean and make him kneel down and admit his mistake!"

——

"Godfrey's rebels have crossed the northern wall. He seems to be supported by your human kingdoms of Lordaeron and Stromgarde. That traitor wants to overthrow your rule.

Perhaps it was because the assistance from his compatriots gave him the confidence to dare to challenge the majesty of the wolves. "

On the walls of the royal city of Gilneas, Lyal Flamefang's voice sounded behind the silent Genn. He asked:

"Jean, I can feel the last struggle deep in your heart. Your weak humanity once disappointed me. I am very curious, how will you deal with those disobedient subordinates this time?

Are you still going to show the king's mercy and spare their lives? "

"No, not anymore."

King Jean scanned the dark forest outside the city with his gray eyes. The wind on the city wall blew his gray mane, making Jean look a little lonely at this time.

Facing the questioning of the ancient druid behind him, he whispered:

"I will no longer hide my true thoughts, Yanya, my last concern has left this dark land, and my last weakness has also disappeared with the wind.

The fact that I asked Darius to fight in my place represents my attitude.

I know that my northern lord will defeat all those who oppose me as before, and this time, Godfrey and the stubborn nobles around him will have no chance to escape.

They will return to my command in another attitude and once again contribute their strength to the rise of Gilneas.

Just tonight”

Old Jean held the Luna Scythe in his hand and whispered in a voice like a beast's grunt:

"Tonight, as you wish, I will become the Howler's warrior in the physical world, and I will use the wild power he has given me to sweep across this weak land.

I heard that my old friend Anduin Lothar has been reborn in darkness. I think this is probably a sign. If a great man like him needs to fall into the darkness to gain the power of protection, then I can also persuade him. Embrace sacrifice yourself.

But Yanya! "

Gene closed his eyes and asked:

"While we mortals are fighting a desperate battle against the demons, you and your gods will not abandon us, right?"

"That will be your god too, Genn, the King of the Pack."

The ancient Druid leader of the Sickle Claw, Lelar Flamefang, let out a hoarse laugh. He stretched out his sharp claws and put them on Jean's shoulders. He said in a deep voice:

"The Howler will not give up any of its followers, and it will not turn a blind eye to all the disasters of its followers like the hypocritical Goldrinn, nor will it be as afraid of disasters as the seemingly rebellious but actually docile Silver Wolf.

I hate demons as much as you do, Gene.

Your human prophets also predicted the end of the world to you, but it is a pity that the stupid and short-sighted king among you humans did not take this seriously.

They were obsessed with fighting for power, but they did not notice the shadow coming behind them.

How can we run the country well with such bugs? Gene.

Don't have any psychological burden on what you are going to do next. The power of werewolves is never a curse. It is a blessing that can give the weak the power to protect themselves in desperate situations.

And I will join you on the battlefield against the devil.

Our wolves will launch a brutal hunt against the ignorant demons, and we will use our sharp teeth to reinterpret "cruelty" to the demons.

We will win, and then we will dominate, and we will rule!

We will cross the endless sea on the remains of demons, and we will hunt in the miserable Mount Hyjal.

us

We will light the so-called World Tree with our own hands. "

Speaking of this, Lelar Flamefang let out a low and weird laugh, and he said:

"They all say that I am crazy, but they don't know that they are the ones who are crazy. The eternal life that Nordrassil bestows on Kaldorei is a stupid poison! Let all those who are blinded by eternal life be immersed in that miserable illusion. .

They never knew that the mistake of breaking the cycle had made the Winter Queen extremely angry, which was enough to make the elves lose their right to enter the Kingdom of Nature forever.

Eternal life, haha, it’s just a decaying thing!

Under the guidance of Lecanthos who returned from Ardenweald, during the long period of sealing, I realized this mistake. I'll fix it myself!

I will prove it with facts. I am Lyral Flamefang! I am the savior of the Kaldorei!

Just like you, Genn Greymane, will become the greatest emperor in the history of humans and werewolves. Although I am not a prophet, I can also predict destiny.

Just tonight, the ancient wolves will roar again on your land. From now on, there will no longer be Lordaeron or the Church of the Holy Light in this land.

There will only be one name left here.

All the land you see will be called 'Gilneas', and you will become the only king of this land.

That's the gift I'll give you, Gene.

This is the power your generous God will give you. "

Yan Ya increased his voice and said:

"Come, Genn, let me crown you under the watchful eye of dark Lycanthos, and you will hunt the weak false god Goldrinn for your god.

When the sun rises tomorrow, no one will doubt the authority of the Wolf King.

Rule, Gene.

This is your destiny. "
