Shadow Trails in Azeroth

Chapter 1516 149. Night Banquet·Lich King Limited Edition-——Last month’s monthly ticket will be updated【325】

"I thought you weren't coming."

In a valley in the Eversong Forest on the way from Quel'Thalas to the territory of the human kingdom, Blake, who was enjoying the sunrise on the hillside, was pretending to be wearing a black elf cloak, carrying a Solidar war bow, and trying his best to Disguised as a ranger.

But unfortunately, even when the sun shines on this guy, the cloak-like shadow curtain that floats out symbolizes his identity.

An assassin.

Or in a more literary way, it’s called Night Walker.

He turned his back to the shadows in the forest behind him, holding his own wine bottle in his hand, and said in a chic manner with his back to the visitor:

"I'm still thinking that if you don't send someone here, I will sell this precious soul at a high price to those shameless warlocks who covet her."

"After receiving the news of the war between the Nightborne and Quel'dorei, we sent people immediately, but the journey was long and we lacked the support of official forces, so we couldn't even use portal tactics."

In the forest behind the pirates, Elisana Ravencrest, also wearing an elf cloak, and her boyfriend Marius Demonscourge quietly walked out.

The eldest lady of the Ravencase family explained in a low voice:

“And at a time when a Lich King has just been born in the Eastern Continent, the resurrected undead wandering around will undoubtedly cause unnecessary panic.

The Father realized this and sent me to collect the precious souls. "

"Tsk, tsk, it's really not good for death knights to run around in the eastern continent, but it's hard for me to understand Lord Ravencrest's brain circuit. Wouldn't two blind elves with tattoos swaggering through the city attract attention?"

Blake complained venomously:

"Look at your appearance, even if you were thrown into Silver Moon City, you would be recognized immediately. This is not the low profile that a secret agent should have.

So, are you two here to perform the escort mission of the Black Crow Chapter? Or did you find an excuse to go on a honeymoon trip? "

"Please do not doubt our sincerity."

Elisana knew how venomous Blake's mouth was. She didn't try to explain, but she just didn't intend to continue this fucking topic.

But just as the blind Illidari wanted to get close to Black, he was almost bitten off his fingers by the howling of two stone Gargon hounds lying at the pirate's feet.

"What is this?"

Elisana pulled out the moon blade with a sound.

She was vigilant in sensing the strange auras of the two people who suddenly appeared in front of her. Just now, her hunter sense clearly told her that they were two oddly shaped but unremarkable stones.

How come this suddenly came to life?

"Ha, this is the baby I specially found to scare you!"

Blake saw two Illidari veterans successfully frightened by the Gargon Hounds. He clapped his hands very happily and said coquettishly:

"Now do you know the dangers of blinding your eyes? Your hunter's sense is not invincible. I have taught you a lesson through practical teaching. No matter what you do in the future, you must stay away from those weird things.

This world is becoming more and more dangerous, and your senses cannot save you from danger like before.

Think about it carefully, when you walk through the forest, how many sculptures do you perceive in the forest? Tsk tsk, it’s no exaggeration to say that you ‘best hunters’ just walked on the edge of hell.

Seeing as I have taught you another lesson, I think you should pay me the teaching fees. It doesn't need to be too much, a hundred demon soul stones are enough. "

"No money."

Marius Demonic Disaster put away the moon blade, spread his hands and smashed them directly and said:

"Lord Illidan is training a large number of demon hunter recruits in the Black Temple. All the soul stones we captured in Draenor must be turned over. That thing is now a strategic material.

But all the powerful demons in that small world have been killed by us, and Lord Illidan is even considering sending a group of new soldiers back to Azeroth for hunting training.

We can already confirm that there are already a large number of demon spies hiding in various forces.

This is why I accompanied Ilisana back to Azeroth. Master Black, I brought you a request from Lord Illidan. He needs to use the channels of the Uncrowned to help the new recruits quickly enter their respective war zones. "

"Hey, I'm here to steal business!"

Blake said in a bad tone:

"The warlock students in my academy are currently catching demons from various factions to improve their vision. You guys are going to come and interfere. Well, this is not a bad thing.

There has been an embarrassing incident where the demon's disguise was exposed by the warlock, but the weak warlock could not defeat the demon and was almost killed. I might consider pairing my disciples with your recruits to form a real demon-hunting team. '.

Warlocks are responsible for finding them, and demon hunters are responsible for killing them.

If you can't find the demon, my warlocks can help you summon demons from the Twisting Nether for you to kill.

Gee, this 'self-produced and self-sold' model is simply great. "

Having said this, the stinky pirate raised two fingers and said:

"Then, for every demon found and hunted, Illidari needs to pay me two hundred gold coins, which can be replaced by soul stones. Do you accept this condition?"

Blake's outrageous words shocked Maris instantly. The demon hunter with a more lively personality exclaimed:

"Hey guys! We work for you and we have to pay you back? What kind of damn pirate joke did you just invent?"

"Hey! Don't be ignorant!"

The stinky pirate put his hands on his hips and said unhappily:

"I generously provided you with a job and only charged a small amount of labor fee. Instead of being grateful, you still want to ask me for wages?

I said, you blind elves are really going too far. "

"If Lord Illidan were here, he would definitely bring up the Warblade of Azzinoth and chop you twice."

Maris complained, but said no more.

He knew that when it came to talking nonsense, the entire Illidari would be ruthlessly suppressed by Black.

This guy is the king of the gossip world, the boastful God of Destruction, and the supreme deity of the mockery world.

He's absolutely great at making people angry.

Elisana did not intervene in this issue that destroyed all three views. She carefully bypassed the two Gargon hounds that had turned into stone statues to hide, and took Elisande's soul stone from Black.

But the eldest lady of the Ravencrest family quickly frowned. She tossed the wailing soul stone up and down and said:

"Why is there only a soul? Where is her body?"

"Well"

Blake whistled awkwardly and said:

"How should I put it? When I executed her, I used too much force. The excess evil energy filled the flesh and blood, and the flesh exploded. I originally thought that with the skills of the suture masters of the Black Crow Knights, I should be able to cut off the stumps. Arms sewn up.

But after repeated confirmation from a senior psychic friend of mine, he told me that the explosion was too broken and could not be stitched back together.

So only this soul remains.

But that doesn’t matter, right? "

The smelly pirate grinned and said:

"Liches don't need flesh and blood. My Dean Blue Moon completed the ascension ceremony with his spirit body. For ruthless lichs, troublesome flesh and blood will only affect the speed of death and decay.

Besides, I know that the Black Crows keep some 'spare bodies'.

If Lord Ravencrest really needs it, he can find a new body for the Black Crow Lich Ms. Elisande. This is not a difficult task, right?

It would be even simpler if we pursue fresh flesh and blood. "

Blake lowered his voice and said:

"I know very well how cruel demon hunter training is. It won't be a waste to find a beautiful one among your eliminated elves and use it.

I just don’t know which one Lord Ravencrest likes?

Is he tall? Or something fierce?

still"

"enough!"

Elisana really couldn't bear the mental attack of this stinky pirate's dirty words. She put the soul stone that her father named for her into her pocket with a straight face. She really didn't intend to stay here any longer, so she turned around and asked for it. leave.

"Hey, you two."

While watching the pair of Elidari thunder ducks leave, Blake suddenly reminded:

"Don't go through Stratholme when you go back, take a detour."

"Why?"

Maris asked in surprise:

"That's the shortest route. Is anything going to happen there recently?"

"Not recently."

Blake took out his pocket watch, looked at it, and said:

"Just tonight!

The terrible Lich King held a banquet there and invited the kings to the banquet.

It's not that I'm worried about the safety of you two, but that you may be targeted by the greedy Frostmourne with Elisande's soul in your hands.

The Lich King cherishes his evil swordswoman very much. If Frostmourne insists, I'm afraid you won't be able to safely take away this soul stone.

It's even possible that yourselves, two spicy souls full of fel energy, will become Frostmourne's snacks.

By the way, I would like to bring a message to Lord Ravencrest for His Majesty, who I am currently loyal to.

Queen Azshara wanted to find an opportunity to talk to her former imperial lords about restoring the glory of the empire. She was such a wise and broad-sighted ruler, and she did not exclude a group of dead people from entering her empire.

She even said that as long as Lord Ravencrest is willing to recognize the existence of the empire again, she can regard the rebellion ten thousand years ago as just a game between kings and ministers. "

"That was her fault in the first place!"

When Azshara was mentioned, Elisana immediately became excited and shouted:

"My father died at the hands of the assassins she sent. It is absolutely impossible for my father to have any contact with that tyrant again! Let her give up!"

"Well, young man, don't make decisions for your older father!"

Blake shook his head in a long voice and said:

"Take my words back. I believe that Lord Ravencase has his own thoughts. You must know that not all the upper elves that sank into the sea with the Queen were transformed into Nagas.

As far as I know, there are still a considerable number of drowned ghosts in the ruins of the city on the edge of Nazjatar.

The Queen allows them to continue to exist in her territory, but she has no good way to arrange for these souls who do not want to rest in peace.

This wave is about everyone getting what they want.

And what the Queen needs is nothing more than nominal allegiance.

I believe that after your father swore an oath to wage eternal war against the devil, he had a clearer understanding of the past grudges.

I can say these words for my Majesty here, and I can confidently predict that Lord Kutalos Ravencrest will become Queen Azshara's 'loyal minister' again in the future. "

The stinky pirate's words silenced Elisana. After a few seconds, the eldest lady of the Ravencase family said helplessly:

"Why would someone like you serve Azshara? What methods did the Queen use to convince you? Are those terrible rumors true?

Have you become the Queen's only male favorite in these ten thousand years?

Are you really conquered by Azshara's supreme charm? Do you really like scary tentacles? "

"Um?"

Blake's eyes suddenly widened and he yelled angrily:

"Damn it! Enough of these vicious rumors about the lower body! Her Majesty the Queen and I are innocent, I have never even touched her hands, damn it! Tell me, where did these vicious rumors come from?

I will tear their mouths apart!

Although the pirates under my command were sarcastic, after the brutal naval battle of Quel'Thalas, they no longer had the guts to continue making vicious jokes about me.

Are they those damn goblins?

Hello!

You two!

Don't run away, tell me clearly!

If you run away again, I'll let the dog out!

Don't think this is the end of it. It was groundless in the first place. You have to spread it again. If Queen Azshara misunderstands it in the future, you will be responsible!

My swarm is in Draenor. You can run away, but the monks can't run away from the temple!

Just wait for me! "

——

While Black was furious because of his damaged reputation, the Lich King was in an elven military camp called Quel'Thalas on the border of Stratholme and Quel'Thalas, to be precise. Stay anywhere.

The local elf rangers had all been "politely" invited out of the camp by the death knights. The old ranger lord stationed here, Lord Hawkesbill, known as the "King of Rangers", did not try to resist.

He had previously received an order from General Silver Moon, requiring him not to have any conflict with His Majesty Lothar, and to do his best to meet the Lich King's needs.

Because the Sun King himself will also participate in the next "King's Meeting".

Lothar's envoys have sent the Lich King's invitation to every king's palace, and even Gilneas, who is currently in seclusion, has received the letter.

Although it is still early before the start time of the talks scheduled for the evening, the kings of various countries basically arrive early.

And except for the Knights of the Silver Hand who came here to symbolically "maintain peace", the kings' trip this time was very "simple".

His Majesty Lothar's majesty has been fully proved, and no amount of mortal troops will be meaningful in front of him.

Since it has no meaning, just don’t bring it.

Of course, every king has his own powerful entourage, such as Uther and Old Fordring next to King Terenas, and the four royal red-clothed assassins next to His Majesty King Auriden of Alterac.

Another example is the captain of the royal guard next to Queen Mia Greymane, Goldrinn's Chosen Old Genn.

The city-state of Dalaran sent Krasus, the current leader of the six-member council, as a representative. The red dragon had no escort, but little Jaina appeared beside him as the second representative.

The king, who was very capable of fighting like Dai Lin, did not bring an escort, but he brought his two wives. Lady Catherine, who had been "recuperating from illness" for more than half a year, also attended in a queen's dress.

The only person who was more embarrassed was the representative of the Kingdom of Stormwind.

Grand Duke Bolvar Fordragon looked gloomy. His missing Majesty Varian has not been found yet. He mobilized almost all the spellcasters in the entire Northern Territory, but his king just disappeared.

No one knows where he went.

"Don't worry, Bolvar, Varian will be fine."

Dai Lin, who was still recovering from her injuries, comforted:

"That child is being watched by many people, and there are people paying attention to him in the Hall of Valor. If he is really in danger, there will definitely be powerful forces to help him."

"I just think he's a little too irresponsible!"

The Grand Duke said angrily:

"A king has to do what a reckless warrior would do. This time he is really disappointing!"

"Duke Bolvar, His Majesty has appeared!"

Just when the Grand Duke was about to complain a few words, Shore suddenly appeared and brought a piece of joyful news. He said to the Grand Duke:

"The Farstrider Legion just sent a message. They found His Majesty Varian walking alone through the jungle at the edge of Eversong Forest. Lady Vereesa of the Windrunner family is personally escorting His Majesty to Stratholme."

"Quel'Thalas?"

The Grand Duke said in surprise:

"Where did he go?"

"because."

Xiao looked around and then at Dai Lin. He hesitated and said softly:

"His Majesty said that he encountered a miraculous 'divine revelation'."

"Well, I know faith is important, but Varian seems to have gone too far."

Dai Lin thought this was an artistic statement and immediately lamented, but Xiao then shook his head and said seriously:

"No, the Grand Duke and His Majesty Dai Lin, this time it is truly divine revelation. Your Majesty passed the mysterious trial, and he got back the Sword of the Emperor Stromka!"

"What did you say!!?"
