Shadow Trails in Azeroth

The mysterious mistress Setaris is a powerful loa who was active on the island of Zandalari nearly eight thousand years ago.

She is the creator and main god of the snake people. Although her popularity in the entire Azeroth is not as good as that of "top celebrities" such as Bwonsamdy and Garni, to be honest, in Azeroth at present, Among all the Loa gods born in Si, the mysterious mistress is actually a relatively high-class existence.

Just because she can fight to the death with Mishrax, the top general under G'huun's command and one of the best among the void commanders under the ancient gods, we can judge the power of the mysterious matron at its peak. No weaker than the royal loa of Zandalar.

Of course, the Loa gods who have not fully obtained the orthodox divine power in the field of life have natural disadvantages compared to the genuine demigods. Even the same Loa's strength fluctuates greatly at different times.

Naturally, one cannot take a moment of prosperity as eternity.

But in any case, the mysterious mistress of the snake people's god did indeed use her own sacrifice to prevent G'huun's efforts to escape from the cage at that time seven thousand to eight thousand years ago.

There was no Blake in that era. Raiden was still autistic in that era, Odin, the King of War, was still in confinement, and the power of the ancient gods had not been cleared up much.

If G'huun breaks out at that time, the whole of Azeroth will most likely be destroyed.

From this point of view, Seitaris is indeed a savior hero.

This is also the most proud identity in the history of snake people's civilization.

When the Deconstructor went on a killing spree in Wo'ton to destroy the second seal of Odile City, the mysterious matron had a premonition that she might not be able to come back before she set out to fight the evil.

But as Loa, she had the means to reincarnate, so she laid an egg and gave it to her blood descendants for safekeeping, and told the snake people that she would definitely return to this world in the future.

Unfortunately, the brave and powerful Mysterious Mistress of the Snake Spirit God missed one thing. She did not expect that a Loa demigod like her would have to "make an appointment to queue up" for the spiritual resurrection in the Arden Fairyland, the Kingdom of Death!

In the Kingdom of Nature, where all living demigods and Loa gods go after death, the dead from all worlds are stranded there waiting for the process of resurrection.

Everyone is a demigod.

I have done all kinds of big things in my life.

Even heroes like the mysterious mistress who saved the world became mediocre after they passed away.

Although it was her turn to be resurrected one after another in the eternal time of Ardenweald, the anima of resurrecting demigods was never enough.

In addition, in the past few thousand years, we have also encountered the terrible situation of the Winter Queen's spiritual seed greenhouse being abandoned, so it has been delayed for almost eight thousand years, and the mysterious mistress still has not been able to complete the resurrection in the material world.

But the egg she left behind was well kept by the snake people. At least before the snake people split into pious people and unbelievers, this divine relic was well kept.

However, it is impossible for a civilization to develop in the long term without encountering "unworthy descendants".

Because the god of dust, who had not been resurrected for eight thousand years, seemed to have no power to spread, some snake people finally began to doubt this unresponsive belief after years of disappointment.

And so the unbelievers were born.

This was a terrible mistake that continues to this day.

When Black entangled all the forces in the Voldun Desert, plus the Trolls' golden fleet and military guards, and pushed the Faithless Empire to the end, the last remnant of the mysterious mistress Setaris left in the material world was still Couldn't keep it.

"Plop"

The old snake man Warwick knelt down in front of the sacred snake egg that had been injected with filthy blood by the blood troll barbarians. At this moment, this tough and sincere old snake man could no longer resist the cruel malice in front of him.

In the end, it failed to retain the glory that countless predecessors tried their best to retain.

The tear glands of snake people are not well developed, but the old snake man still cried like a tearful snake at this moment.

Its old and desperate sobs echoed in this ancient snake nest, and its desperate cry was filled with anger and murderous intent against those who had no faith.

But all this is irreversible.

The last hope of the snake people's gods to return to the material world was shattered.

They have forever lost their creator god, they have lost the noble glory of their faith, and they will today degenerate into mere miscellaneous creatures no different from those who have no faith.

"Oh my god, this is so tragic."

The little fox-man Eudora stood next to Blake. Although the fox-men did not have their own gods, and faith was by no means necessary for their survival, she could still feel the overwhelming feeling from the old snake-man's cry in front of her. The terrible despair of a broken soul.

This unspeakable pain caused the foxman to droop his wagging tail.

Witnessing a group of snake people crying in despair is never a good thing that makes people happy.

But Eudora soon discovered the smile on her captain's face. It was not a smile that should appear in this situation.

Although the outside world has always rumored that the captain is a cold-blooded bastard, as the first "old pirate" to follow Blake on the sea, Eudora knew that this statement was incorrect.

The captain is a very humane person, although his humanity only exists for his own people.

"Captain, can you help them?"

The fox queen raised her head and asked.

Blake curled his lips and said softly:

"Whether I can help depends on whether the snake people dare to accept my help. I have a terrible idea to tell them. If they want to help their god, they must first give up their god.

Gee, this NTR plot always looks very familiar. "

After saying that, the pirate coughed, took a few steps forward, and stood behind the desperate old snake man Warwick. He stared at the snake egg that was injected with contaminated blood in front of him. The entry was quickly given on the character card. :

Name: The contaminated egg of the mysterious mistress Setaris

Status: Breeding of evil spirits [Countdown: 11 days and 21 hours]

Item description:

This snake egg once possessed the divine power of the mysterious mistress, and was a sign left by Setalis for his soul that entered the world of death to return to the material world.

The mysterious Mistress had her own plans for her own death and resurrection. Unfortunately, the rules of Ardenweald thwarted her perfect plans.

Now, this solitary egg has been used as the cradle of a dark loa that will be born in the material world. It may have the appearance and body of Setaris, but it will definitely not be the benevolent god imagined by the snake people.

Break it!

Or. Take advantage of it.

"Ahem, don't cry so sadly, my dear Warwick."

Black stretched out his hand and placed it on the scales on the snake man's shoulder. He whispered:

"You can also feel that a dark and evil will is gestating in this egg, so even though I know that my suggestion is very cruel, I still have to say that we have to deal with it immediately!

Otherwise, it will become a freak born in the material world in place of the Mystic Mother. "

"I"

The old snake man wiped his tears. Its unique vocal cords had become extremely hoarse due to the hoarse crying. It said in a difficult tone:

"I can't do it. I have worshiped this sacred thing in front of me as a belief all my life. I really can't destroy it with my own hands, even if I know it is necessary.

Captain, I beg you, maybe you can help us."

It really couldn't continue what it said next, and the devout snake people around it were all dejected. Although they defeated the unbelievers today, they lost their faith.

It's hard to call this a brilliant victory.

"Well, I have something to show you."

The pirate rubbed his chin, looked around, then took out a scroll with the name Nathalas Magic Academy from his arms, handed it to the old snake man, and motioned for the latter to open it and take a look.

The weeping old snake man with one Buddha born and two Buddhas ascended to heaven shook his hands and held the scroll in his hand. He felt dizzy as soon as he read the title, for no other reason than because the scroll was all written in the ancient Saras language. .

Although the Warwick Prophet was already considered a cultured person among the snake people, such unfamiliar and cumbersome writing still made him feel like a barbarian who had broken into the civilized world.

"The first draft of "On the Practical Application of Void Magic in the Material World System: Feasibility Study on the Flesh and Flesh Reincarnation Experiment of Demigod-Level Life Forms"?

What is this? "

It opened the scroll and read it almost word by word, relying on its mastery of Salas language with great difficulty. After he read the title, he looked at Black with a blank look.

The pirate shrugged and said:

"It means I want to do an experiment, and I need to use this contaminated snake egg. Don't be too busy getting angry. Read the proposal report and feasibility study first.

If your knowledge base is not enough for you to understand these academic documents, then just turn to the last few pages to read my research conclusions and experimental goals.

I believe that will be enough to convince you to help me complete this experiment. "

Blake explained it this way.

The old snake man was a little skeptical, but out of trust in Blake, he turned the scroll to the end and read it carefully word by word.

This reading speed is of course very slow.

However, the pirates were not in a hurry and did not rush.

He stretched out his hand and stroked the contaminated egg of the gods placed on the altar in front of him. When his fingers touched the snake egg as tall as a person, Blake could clearly feel the vitality of the dark creature being bred in the egg shell.

The latter has not yet developed complete consciousness, but it obviously already has its own biological instincts.

Probably because the ignorant are fearless, it actually took the initiative to roar like a wild beast at the mental level to Blake who was peeping at it. Such childish provocation made the pirate sneer and retract his finger.

Huo, this young man has quite a character. You dare to yell at me and be so disrespectful to me. Okay, now this is a personal conflict between you and me. I will let you know in a moment what a big villain you can't afford to offend is. !

The pirate touched the stubble around his lips.

He looked at the egg that was not shining with black blood in front of him with an indifferent look, as if he was thinking about what to do with this weird egg.

After more than ten minutes, the old snake man finally finished reading the final conclusion of the scroll given to him by Blake.

Although the professional terms in the field of elf magic made his head hurt, and even made the old snake man temporarily forget his sadness because of the difficulty, he still understood the general meaning.

Warwick grabbed the scroll and looked at the pirate with a look of surprise and joy. It hissed out the snake message and said:

"Is this really possible? Can the contaminated relics of a god really help another god to resurrect, and after that god regains his strength, he will help the mysterious mistress return to the world as agreed?"

"This is the graduation project I chose for myself, my dear Warwick."

Blake grinned, pointed to his head proudly, and said:

"You also know that among my many titles, I have the status of Grand Master of the Azeroth Warlock System. Although it cannot be compared with those professional magic researchers, I feel that my magical attainments are as good as what I have done in the past. Those deeds should be enough to give you some confidence.

the most important is"

The pirate patted the contaminated egg of the gods in front of him and said to the old snake man:

"You have lost everything. Even if you believe me once, what else can you lose?"

"Right."

This reason easily convinced the old snake man.

It looked at the snake egg in front of it that could no longer be saved or restored to its purity, and then glanced at the obscure paper in its hand. After a few seconds, the old snake man gritted his teeth and said to Blake:

"So Captain, what do we need to do?"

"Seal the temple, no one is allowed to come near, and no one is allowed to disturb me."

Blake blew out a smoke ring, took out his pocket watch and checked the time, then took out a very delicate skull hourglass from his pocket and placed it in the ancient snake's nest.

He said to Warwick:

"The scheduled time for this experiment is about three days. Not only will I use this contaminated egg to reshape the life of a noble being who has lost her body, but I will also use the process of 'hatching' to give her a symbolic dimension. The meaning of 'new life'.

This means that I will fully resurrect a dead person into the living.

It doesn't take much more than me to explain how difficult this process is. Mantid spellcasters will take over the temple, and you can watch or participate.

In addition, although I guarantee that this great being named 'Ancient Venerable' will help the Mysterious Matron to be reborn in the material world in the future, as the leader of the Mysterious Matron's followers, you'd better talk to her again detail.

I will not participate in this process. "

"So, where is that great being?"

The old snake man looked around and didn't feel the presence of anything strange.

The pirate shrugged and snapped his fingers. In the next moment, a cold will that was so huge that it made the old snake man fall to his knees instantly poured into its soul and will in an unstoppable manner.

Xal'atas, who had been waiting for this moment for who knows how many years, did not act crazy when his dream was about to come true.

On the contrary, in a gesture that was very consistent with the majesty of the great being, she said to the old snake man at the level of his trembling soul:

"I have always been by your side, I have been watching you, snake people, your gods are in pain, and your loyalty to Cetaris makes me jealous.

I will help her just as she left her legacy to help me.

I know that you will question my promise, but just three days later, on the day of my rebirth, I will show you my promise and my sincerity.

Do you have anything else to ask? "

Xal'atath asked in a gentle tone.

Her attitude was excellent, but the old snake man was unable to speak at all. It felt like it was facing a bottomless abyss, and it was afraid that it would lose its soul if it opened its mouth.

God, even a loyal believer like it, when facing this dark and great existence, can't help but have such crazy thoughts as "Why don't you convert?"

This is so disturbing.

No wonder the captain can do so many incredible and great things in this world. It turns out that there has always been such a dark god beside him to protect him.

"Tsk, tsk, you've tricked me."

The pirate saw the change in the old snake man's expression, and said to Xal'atath in his own mind:

"Does it feel good to pretend to be a ghost?"

"It's so cool!"

The Dark Essence replied with a smile, and Blake also chuckled, turned around and shouted behind him:

"My dear school girl Xiao Xingxing!

Stop taking pictures, come in, put on your experimental robes, we are going to start working on my graduation project! Watch and study carefully, you will have to experience this again in the future. "
