Shadow Trails in Azeroth

"boom"

A loud noise woke up Silvermoon General Alleria Windrunner, who was resting inside the Sunwell Palace Complex, and also caused the high knight Turalyon, who was leaning on Ms. Alleria's knees, to stand up with a start.

Don't get me wrong, these two people didn't do anything bad just now, they were just talking about love between battles.

General Silvermoon brought the Farstrider rangers to support the Sunwell, and the Grand Knight, in the name of the Human Pope, together with the Grand Knight of Dathrohan, commanded an elite group of Paladins and Priests to accompany Alleria to defend it. Sunwell.

Of course, judging from the number of people in this vanguard, the support from the Holy Light Church is more symbolic than practical.

This is the message sent by humans to the elves, that humans will not sit back and watch their elf allies being bullied by black-skinned elves who don't know where they came from.

The real main force on the human side should be Marshal Garithos commanding the Army Corps that has just crossed the border between Stratholme and Quel'Thalas.

But considering the current situation of the elves, it would be good to have support, and we really shouldn’t be picky.

The great knight Turalyon, who had just returned from the frontline of the Draenor world and planned to take a vacation, was sent to assist the elves, without any complaints. He was a very serious person, and since he came to the elves' territory, he was ready to help them with all his heart.

Besides, Grand Knight Turalyon didn't hate spending his vacation to help Quel'dorei. After all, the "goddess" he cherished was still fighting here.

If you really don't let him come, he will worry instead.

It can only be said that men's IQ and EQ will quickly drop to negative numbers when they are in love.

"The Son of the Night is coming? What happened to that explosion just now?"

The big knight rushed out of the resting platform with his big royal sword and looked towards the direction of the explosion, but he could only see dust flying, as if a palace had been bulldozed.

"It should be a sneak attack!"

Alleria put on her ranger helmet. She rushed out with the Windrunner family's sacred object, Thasdorla, and threw an Eagle Eye spell on herself.

After looking around for a moment, he saw the outer walls of the Sunwell that had been blown down by the stone demons, as well as the demon swordsmen of the Son of the Night who were pouring into the Sunwell palace complex like a flood.

This terrible scene made General Silvermoon frown. She turned to Turalyon and said:

"Grand Knight, quickly lead your soldiers to climb the wall of the inner temple and assist the rangers and Phoenix Guards in reorganizing the defense line!"

"Don't you need to divide your troops to stop them?"

It was also the first time for Turalyon to enter the magical holy land of the elves. He was not familiar with it, so he asked:

"Wouldn't it have any impact on your holy land if the children of night were allowed to flood into the Sunwell?"

"No, not yet."

Alleria explained briefly:

“Sunwell’s defense line has two layers, and they have only broken through the perimeter now.

In the plan of the Sun King and me, this layer of city wall will be breached sooner or later, but now it is just ahead of schedule due to accidents.

The Nightborne thought they had an advantage, but the closer they got to the Sunwell, the pressure from the tidal force of the magic well made them more passive.

It will take them more time to break through the second barrier, but now that the North Sea pirates have been unable to break through Silvermoon City and are starting to evacuate one after another, our scattered rangers and mages have begun to regroup.

Including the arrival of reinforcements from human allies, as long as we persist for two to three days, these children of the night will be surrounded by our army.

They are so eager to get the Sunwell that they ignore the threat behind them. So don't worry, Turalyon, the more excited they are now, the closer they are to their downfall. "

"No wonder I feel like you're not in a hurry at all."

The great knight whispered:

"It turns out that you guys had a plan for a long time. I knew that as General Silver Moon, you never passively wait for opportunities. You always take the initiative to create opportunities."

"You're terrible at saying earthy love words, Lord Knight."

Turalyon's simple appreciation made the ranger general roll her eyes. She reached out and tapped Turalyon's pauldron and said:

"And pay attention to the occasion. We are fighting now. Knight Turalyon, please be serious!"

"But my compliment comes from the bottom of my heart."

The great knight shrugged. He knew that he was not good at compliments, but facing the girl he loved, he still couldn't suppress his inner desire for expression.

But when he saw that the fastest charging Demon Swordsman of the Night was approaching the second city wall barrier, the great knight also became serious. He nodded to Alleria, picked up his fearless helmet and put it on his head. He got on his horse, picked up his sword, got on his horse, and rushed towards the battlefield with his two followers.

The Ranger General did not go to the inner walls to defend the enemy.

As the commander who was trusted and given command by the Sun King, she needed to have an overview of the overall situation here. After watching the great knight leave, the ranger general pursed his lips. Although the battle ahead was fierce, Alleria at this moment turned her attention away from the city wall. Move up and look at the Tower of the Sun behind you.

That is the core area of ​​the Sunwell. The Magic Well is at the bottom of the tower, and the construction drawings of the Sunwell are also stored in that tower.

Alleria narrowed her eyes.

She saw a layer of golden magic light cast outside the tower. It was energy directly derived from the sun well, which could isolate all outsiders who were not allowed to enter.

Fortunately, as a ranger general, she had just been granted permission by the Sun King to enter and report on the war situation in this sudden war.

She just needs a chance now.

"I said, why are you thinking so much?"

A familiar voice sounded behind the Ranger General, and Fenner, an idiot holding a red apple in her hand, strode over with a weapon on her back.

She seemed to know what Alleria was thinking, so she took a bite of the apple with a click. In the chewing with juice splashing everywhere, the Sword Master of the Wrathful Sea, who is now "famous" in Quel'Thalas, said to the ranger The general complained:

"You can go in, so why bother? You rush in and turn off those annoying magics, and then I will complete the search and snatching of the blueprints. Let's run away after finishing this.

I don't believe it!

At our two speeds, who else in this sunwell surrounded by the children of the night can catch up with us? "

Fenner puffed up her chest confidently, patted Alleria on the shoulder and said:

"Besides, my bratty brother, who has a lot of tricks up his sleeve, is waiting for us outside. As long as we get the blueprints, everything will be easy.

It doesn't matter if you are exposed, now they will insult you as a traitor, but as long as Arcandor bears fruit and you bring it back to the Sun King, all the previous insults will be transformed into supreme praise.

They will tell their children that it was Lady Alleria Windrunner who found true hope and a future for the Quel'dorei. "

"Hey, do you always think about problems so simply and directly?"

When Windrunner heard the idiot Fenner's "suggestion", she couldn't help but rub her forehead and said:

"Lord Black obviously has the best wisdom in the world, but why have you followed him for so long and not learned anything at all?

If we must resort to theft and robbery, then Mr. Black's skills will not help us at all. The reason why he arranged this matter for us is that he hopes to complete it with the minimum cost.

It's best to be invisible.

We need to be patient, Finna.

The war started by the Nightborne has attracted all the attention of Quel'Thalas. Sooner or later, these hateful black-skinned elves will bring us a perfect opportunity, right? "

As the Ranger General spoke, she felt something ringing on Fenner's body. She turned around and glanced at the stupid soldier, and found that the latter was holding a very strange watch and adjusting it in front of her eyes.

"what is that?"

Alleria asked curiously, Fenner raised her head, waved the watch in her hand with a cheerful smile and said to the Ranger General:

"This is a good thing we got in Mechagon. It's called a portable pocket calculator. Those mechanical gnomes integrated many chips and gadgets into this thing.

They call this 'technology', which is very similar to our magic, but I heard that this thing can complete remote communication without alerting any mages.

Best for a warrior like me.

Look.

My stinky brother just sent me a message. "

Fenner lifted the watch and placed it in front of Alleria. The Ranger General took it and adjusted the screen awkwardly before seeing the writing on the watch that was constantly beating.

It's very simple, just one sentence:

"I have determined that there are a group of fear demons lurking in the Sunwell. They are too bad. Kill them!"

This quote is signed by Blake Shaw.

Just this name made the Ranger General feel the importance of this news. She glanced at Fenner and then at the Sun Tower behind her.

The next moment, the ranger general raised his bow, put down the visor of his helmet, and said to Fenner:

"Go to the Great Knight of Dathrohan and ask him to bring the holy shield that can illuminate demons and follow me! We cannot allow demons to use the opportunity of war to destroy Quel'dorei's holy land."

"Ouch."

Fenna didn't know what happened, but she was very obedient. Her brother asked her to obey Alleria's command before setting off, so she didn't have any resistance to the orders of the ranger general.

She picked up a half-eaten apple and rushed out of the platform. After two heroic jumps, she landed on the Paladin's position on the city wall.

Soon, after hearing Fenner's news that there might be a demon lurking in the Sunwell, the Great Knight of Dathrohan immediately brought the Guardian of Truth to join General Silver Moon.

The Grand Knight's Holy Shield has helped the Holy Light Church eliminate many demon lurkers hidden in various holy places in the past period. Dathrohan has become more and more skilled at manipulating this sacred object that can reflect people's hearts.

With his help, Alleria quickly captured a Dreadlord Lurker in the caster camp near the Tower of the Sun.

The guy still wanted to run, but as soon as he met him, he was imprisoned by Dathrohan with the Guardian of Truth, and then he was chopped down on the spot by the energetic idiot Finna holding the Wind Chaser Blade and the Holy Sword of Quel'Delar.

With this vivid example, Alleria finally got the chance she needed.

She sternly yelled at everyone in the camp not to move around, and deployed a team of rangers to block the place. She rushed into the Tower of the Sun with Finna, the Great Knight of Dathrohan, and the armor left behind by the Dread Lord after his death. Reported the news to the Sun King face to face.

"Your Majesty, I am certain that there are more demonic lurkers hiding near us, and they have specifically chosen this moment of war to carry out horrific destruction on Quel'dorei's holy land.

This is something we cannot tolerate. "

In the Tower of the Sun, the Ranger General said to the Sun King in a serious tone:

"I know now is not the time, but I still ask your Majesty to grant me temporary authority. I will work with the Grand Knight Dathrohan and Lord Fenna to search the Tower of the Sun and eliminate the hidden dangers of demons hidden in the Holy Land."

"I fully understand the necessity of your request, my Ranger General."

Sun King Anastarian has been mentally and physically exhausted by the war started by Elisande in the past few days, but the old king has not lost his mind because of this. He knows that the hidden danger hidden in his heart is truly fatal.

After seeing with his own eyes the Dreadlord's legacy armor brought back by the Ranger General, the Sun King immediately gave Alleria permission to search the Tower of the Sun.

"But there are only three of you, so this is too slow."

Anastarian rubbed his forehead and said:

"Let the Phoenix Sword Master and the shadow walkers of the Sangunar family cooperate with you. The Sunwell is a top priority and we cannot allow any hidden dangers to exist here."

"Your Majesty! Elisande has appeared on the battlefield again. The great magister of Suramar is using her damn staff to guide a large-scale destructive magic.

In addition, the damn big pirate Black Shaw also appeared on the frontal battlefield, commanding his strange stone monster to approach the second line of defense.

According to reports from frontline soldiers, our first line of defense was destroyed by that monster. "

Before the Sun King finished speaking, a Dragon Eagle Knight walked in quickly and delivered two pieces of bad news to him.

This made the Sun King suddenly change his expression. He stood up from the throne with a flaming strike. He didn't even have time to say a few more words to the Ranger General, but just warned:

"I leave this to you, General Alleria. In honor of the Windrunner family, I ask you to clean up the demonic scourge before I come back!"

"I promise! Your Majesty!"

Alleria straightened her back and gave a military salute. She said seriously:

"I swear on my family's behalf that I will dedicate everything I have to the future of Quel'Thalas and our people!"

"good!"

The Sun King nodded happily, put on his magic cloak and left with his Phoenix Guards.

After watching the Sun King leave, Alleria and Fenna looked at each other. The two did not communicate much, but even Fenna's mind had already understood what she should do.

"I'm with Ser Salorian!"

After the Phoenix Sword Master and the assassins of the Sangunar family entered the Tower of the Sun, Fenna was the first to raise her hand and said:

"The rest of you work as a team. It might be faster if we work separately."

"Then I will team up with Baron Sangunar."

The Ranger General nodded and glanced at Baron Sangunar, who seemed to be looking very haggard. The latter just nodded to Alleria coldly.

The great knight Dathrohan looked up and observed the structure of the Tower of the Sun. He raised his mirror-like Titan-made shield and said to the others:

"You all are in position. It's best if there are people on the upper and lower floors of this tower. I will activate the Holy Light of the Guardian of Truth at the highest point. Wherever that light sweeps, I can ensure that no demon can continue to hide.

But the Dreadlords are very cunning and will try to escape or jump over the wall, so be prepared for a tough fight. "

"Trust me, Lord Knight."

Alleria pushed her helmet and whispered:

"We are fully mentally prepared to be here, right? Baron Sangunar."

"Um."

The best master assassin in Quel'Thalas nodded, a trace of sadness flashed in his eyes, and he whispered:

"This is also about fighting for the future of my country and my family. I have dedicated my life to this, and a little more is not a big deal."

"Yes, I heard that Miss Valeela in your family has become a real watcher. She is very powerful."

The idiot Finna blinked and said something.

Her expression was like that of naughty children playing a game of "matching the code". As a result, these words attracted the indifferent gaze of Baron Sangunar, who whispered:

"Valila is already the next head of the Sangunar family. I have personally tested her, and her growth has indeed exceeded my expectations. But we are not here to chat, Miss Fenner.

Let's get to work. "

"Uh-huh."

Fenner got the answer she wanted.

She nodded with satisfaction, feeling quite proud and proud of an "underground worker" in her heart, but all this was seen by the onlookers, His Excellency Salorian Morningseeker.

I don’t know if it’s an illusion.

But the Phoenix Sword Master always felt that apart from him, the other three of the four people seemed to have some secrets.

Especially Fenner.

This stupid girl he had grown up watching was a little too active today, right?

Could it be

Hiss, no way?
