Shadow Trails in Azeroth

Black did not come forward to stop the Ancestral Turtle from playing games with his pirates.

But are his thoughts really the same as those of the little fox man?

No.

no.

The human pirates are just preparing to take this opportunity to play a bigger game.

"The turtle shell game is boring."

When Scroll Sage Kojo returned to his seat, Black, who was enjoying fine tobacco, waved his hand and said to the turtle man in front of him:

"That thing looks like a gamble on luck, but actually after playing for a long time, you will know that it tests your eyesight and details. The pirates under my command are all not very smart, and they will probably lose miserably.

But I am their leader, so naturally I have to be included in this game.

I want to play too! "

Blake took off the dwarf's pipe, blew out a puff of smoke, and said to the Scroll Sage in front of him:

"But I'm going to play with you according to my rules. Don't worry, it's fair."

As he spoke, Black took out an Eye of Gul'dan from his magic bag and placed it on the table. As soon as this thing appeared, it immediately attracted the attention of the ancestor turtle scroll sage Kojo.

These turtle people are the descendants of the wilderness demigod Tortola. They inherited the super vitality of the turtle demigod. Each ancestor turtle can live for a long time.

And these guys love two things in life.

Listen to the story.

Collect things.

Therefore, every Ancestral Turtle is a walking treasure house. An Ancestral Turtle that can become a Scroll Sage will definitely have more good things in it than you can imagine.

The best part is, these guys have an unquenchable passion for good stories and collecting action, not out of interest.

They can't get rid of these two hobbies, just like high elves can't get rid of their addiction to magic, and night elves like to live in trees. This is natural.

"This is such a pure crystallization of magic power. I have lived for almost a thousand years and have never seen too much. How did you get it? I think this must be another legendary story."

Kojo stretched out his paw and stroked the Eye of Gul'dan obsessively.

He looked at Blake, who shrugged and didn't answer, but continued to take things out of his bag.

The Mark of the Wizard King, Gul'dan's Skull, Gul'dan's other crystallized eyeball, the Flame Blade Sankesu, the Devil's Strike Dagger, and the Tide Charm that he hadn't used in a long time.

A total of seven things filled the table in front of him.

The Scroll Sage Koo Qiao is the ancestral turtle who has seen the world. The "jewelry" emitted by the seven things in front of him made the Scroll Sage a little emotional for a while.

He touched one and examined the other carefully.

Just like the best treasure appraiser, he kept making comments very much like the Ancestral Turtle.

"This... must be more than two hundred years old!"

"Wow, this sword contains legendary power. It must have recorded endless legends. If I knew them all, I would probably be scared out of my turtle shell."

"Appreciate it slowly, my friend, don't be impatient, there's still some time until midnight."

Blake held his pipe and said in a gentle tone to the excited Scroll Sage in front of him:

"Do you like these things? My collection is much better than yours, right?"

"Um!"

Kojo tapped his tortoise hard. He looked at Black with wide eyes, rubbed his paws, and said to the pirate:

“But you are also a living legend for being able to gather such a large collection into one person, Blake, and I think I will definitely become a good friend with you.

Then I will ask you to tell me all the stories in your head and I will write them all down. "

"No problem, I'm happy to share the story in my head."

Blake shrugged and said:

"But let's finish this game first. Are you ready to hear the rules?"

"Well, tell me."

Cojo suppressed his excitement, sat across from Black, and heard the pirate say to him:

"The rules of the game are simple, I call it 'blind box', which you can think of as another form of the turtle shell game. I have seven collectibles here, so we can play it seven times!

If I lose once, my collection belongs to you.

But since it's fair game, you also have to come up with items worth as much as my seven collections.

If I win, your collection will be mine too.

It's up to you to prepare, friend. "

Blake reached out to cover his eyes, and said in a brisk tone:

“You can use all your methods to hide your collection in something and then let me find the one with the highest value. I only have one chance per round.

If I don’t find the one with the highest value, I lose.

In this process, I will not use any power that belongs to me, and you can also try your best to restrict me. I will only touch them with my hands.

Everything is touched only once.

Do you have anything else to add? "

"No hands!"

Kou Qiao thought for a while, and the ancestral turtle said cunningly:

"I just saw you touching those ships with your hands, and you easily identified the good ships that Totaka had hidden among them. You must have learned the art of treasure identification, and you must have been very skilled in it.

So I have to limit you, you can only see with your eyes.

As it happens, I have ten turtle shells blessed by Toga in my hand, which can hide anything without revealing a breath. "

"You are so cunning, my friend, so cunning that you don't look like a turtle."

Blake smiled.

He blew out a puff of smoke and said to Kou Qiao:

"You can go and prepare, friend. If you lose miserably later, I will give you the right to admit defeat. But the rule is, if you surrender, you lose half."

"Hmph, the things I've seen can scare the hell out of you, my human friend."

The Scroll Sage stood up slowly, snorted, then took out a strange scroll from the backpack behind him, and tore it open in front of Blake's eyes.

His figure suddenly disappeared from the spot, and he ran to prepare.

Blake didn't care. He sat on the chair and didn't touch it with his hands. He used his left eye, which was not blocked by the blindfold, to look at the seven things he placed in front of him.

The reconnaissance technique was thrown out seven times in a row.

Then in front of Blake's eyes, there were five orange lights, one purple light, and one green light wrapping around and shining.

Old Garni had previously given him the blessing of a mysterious guardian to upgrade his detection skills.

It is said that you can see more secrets.

The seven rays of light in front of him are the effects of the upgraded detection technique.

Not only can it be used to view character information, but it can also be used to view equipment.

A few minutes later, the slow Kojo came back with a pile of black turtle shells in his hands. Behind him was Totaka, the leader of the local ancestral turtles.

Without saying much, Kojo placed the ten turtle shells with hidden things in front of Blake's eyes, making a "please" gesture.

The pirate felt it carefully.

Sure enough, as the Scroll Sage said, these ten turtle shells were blessed by the turtle Loa god Toga. No matter what was hidden inside, not a trace of breath was leaked from the outside.

He glanced at Kou Qiao.

The Scroll Sage showed a gentle smile, and the turtle man looked very confident in his spells.

"I'm going to start."

Black reminded him kindly. The two ancestral turtles looked at him from left to right and did not let him make any small moves to cheat. The pirate also did not make any unnecessary moves.

Just look at each turtle shell one by one.

He didn't reach out the whole time.

After he finished reading, the ten turtle shells in front of him were filled with light that was so weak that it was invisible.

Three shades of blue, three shades of green, and three shades of gray.

And, the last one.

Purple!

Blake glanced at Kojo, stretched out his hand, and touched the turtle shell with a blue light. Seeing this action, the ancestor turtle scroll sage suddenly showed a faint smile.

But before its smile disappeared, the pirate's hand that touched the turtle shell suddenly shook and touched the turtle shell next to it.

"I want this!"

He raised a palm-sized turtle shell, shook it by his ear, then reached out and pulled out an old, scratched sword hilt.

He glanced at Kojo again, and then injected magic into it.

"Shua"

The beating, scorching red flame burned from the worn-out sword hilt, and turned into a one-handed sword composed of flames under Blake's appreciative gaze.

The character card also gives an entry for this thing:

Tibu's Fiery Sword

epic quality

Extraordinary ignition. Extremely effective in destroying demons.

Comes with special effects:

After injecting magic power, every time it hits an enemy, it will release a magic fire blast. The destructive power increases with the injection of magic power. The upper limit of the destructive power does not exceed the master-level fire blast.

"Want to do it again?"

Blake turned to look at Kojo and whistled.

The expression of the ancestor turtle scroll sage is not very good.

But he has style.

First, he congratulated Blake, then put away the turtle shell, disappeared again, and came back a few minutes later, again arranging ten turtle shells. This time, Kojo was much smarter.

He probably noticed that Blake was playing tricks.

So this time, the ten turtle shells all contained things of the same grade.

Blake glanced over and saw that all ten turtle shells were blue.

"Is this a trick? Is it to determine the accuracy of the detection technique?"

The pirate thought so in his mind, reached out to grab the one with the strongest blue light, put it to his ear and shook it, then stretched out his finger and took out a dirty, weird little bag the size of a finger.

The character card immediately gives the entry:

Six magic bags

Excellent quality

Comes with special effects:

Chaos Magic: Attack the enemy with the power of wind, fire, thunder and lightning, and even all things! [Cooling time.30 minutes]

"I surrender!"

As soon as Kojo saw Black getting the best collection twice, he immediately and decisively chose to admit defeat.

After two rounds of play, he was certain.

Blake does have a way to activate the "Treasure Appraisal Technique" without contact.

The Scroll Sages were all wise men, and he knew he could not win.

"Surrender loses half the battle, right?"

The Ancestral Turtle was not disappointed either.

Although he lost, tonight's story was very interesting. He could record it, take it back and share it with his companions, and use the good stories to exchange for more good things from his companions.

Therefore, for him, it was not a complete loss.

"You already got two of my collections, half of seven rounds, which is three, so I have to give you one more."

Kojo clapped his hands, as if applauding Blake's wonderful performance. He touched in his luggage, took out a bone ring exuding cold air, and placed it in front of Blake's eyes.

The pirate shrugged and accepted it politely.

But Kojo gave up, and Totaka, who followed him, was a little eager to try. The eyes of this cunning and greedy ancestor turtle leader did not stop at Black's other good things.

On the contrary, his eyes were always on the inconspicuous Tide Spell compared with the magic weapon.

His eyes went from confusion, to surprise, to finally ecstasy, before he was forcibly suppressed, and he tried his best to maintain calm.

After Kojo admitted defeat, Totaka walked across from Black.

He said to the pirates:

"I'm also going to play this 'blind box' game with you. It's very interesting to watch."

"Okay, I welcome new friends to play with."

The pirate grinned, put the cold white bone ring on the little finger of his left hand, and admired the good things he had won. He said to the leader of the ancestor turtles in front of him:

"But can you get enough good stuff? How about betting on that big ship you are unwilling to let go of?"

"good!"

Totaka put away the ten turtle shells and said to Black:

"But the rules need to be changed. Since it's called a 'blind box', you have to blindfold your eyes again!"

"this"

Blake almost laughed.

Ko Qiao, the Scroll Sage next to him, stretched out his claws in despair and covered his eyes.

Investigation does not require eyes to initiate.

It's just Blake's habit to see with his eyes.

This stupid turtle likes to play tricks.

I completely missed the point.
