Shadow Trails in Azeroth

The moonlight shrouded Miss Maiev in the moonwell like a veil, and the divine power belonging to Lord Moon Shadow was integrated into her body, leading this pious soul to the Black Moon Road.

This process is naturally accompanied by the strengthening and transformation of life levels by divine power, and Black is familiar with this, because in addition to Maiev, he already has many gods chosen after 10,000 years.

Of course, if you sort them by time, Maiev is the first one in front of you.

In more religious terms, it should be called "The Divine Enlightenment", "The First Saint" or something like that. If you put it in an organization like the Holy Light Church, it will definitely be written down in a big book and leave its name in history, and it will also be memorized by Protestants. Keep the scriptures and meanings firmly in mind, and it might even become a big question in a graduation exam or something like that.

But Blake, the unscrupulous evil god, obviously doesn't care about these things.

As a pirate, he didn't appreciate this kind of meaningless red tape, and he had no intention of starting a sect, let alone creating a religion for millions of people to cause trouble for himself.

The belief in the Shadow Moon is destined to only be passed down among the Watcher faction within the Sisterhood of Elune, and given the peaceful nature and social structure of the night elves, the number of elves who set foot on the path of the Black Moon in peacetime is definitely not high. There will be so many.

This is good. The provincial pirates have to take one day a week to pay attention to the believers.

Just kidding, I’m busy enough robbing homes and doing bad things, how can I have so much time to listen to believers complaining that their wives should be beaten for their misbehavior/children should be punished for their disobedience/I hope the gods will help me if my rent is gone next month/Lao Wang next door always comes to visit. It's not about killing him or other filial pranksters.

Being a god is not that easy.

My white, rich and beautiful boss, Ms. Elune, has complained many times.

Obviously, Pirate Pirates was a little distracted, mainly because Miss Maiev was wearing something "cool" during the ceremony in the Moon Well, which made Lord Moon Shadow a little distracted.

Although I have admired this perfect body many times on various occasions, the innocent Maiev and the royal sister Maiev are obviously not the same thing, and their extraordinary attractions are naturally different.

It's like a good dish, but you can't taste the real taste if you're too anxious.

But the pirate must maintain his precarious "gentleman" attitude, so naturally he cannot turn his obscene gaze to his chosen one, even if the other person will become his wife in the future.

Hmm, why does this sound so painful?

But to be honest, asking Maiev to complete the Black Moon Ritual in a cool manner was not a deliberate trick by Black. After all, the Pirate Pirates only wore a pair of big shorts when he completed his Black Moon Ritual in the Moon Well of Sundala City ten thousand years later. .

This is tradition!

understand?

Although it seems very astringent and obscene to outsiders, this is the legacy of Watchmen.

However, under normal circumstances, the black moon ceremony does not require a host. It is completed by the Watcher recruits and girls alone under the moonlight.

Since no one was watching, there was nothing to be ashamed of. This embarrassing situation was an accident.

The most important thing is that the career inheritance Maiev will accept tonight is not only the "Moon Watcher", but also the advanced mythical career "Moon Night War God".

Ten thousand years later, Maiev handed these two inheritances to Black. After completing the pirate magic, he traveled back through time and taught the inheritance to Maiev.

This is how the Circle of Destiny works.

The same principle applies to the fact that ten thousand years later, Maiev took away the "first blood" of the Pirate Pirates, and Blake had to "retaliate equally" after traveling through time.

Well, it’s the first time for each other, so that’s interesting.

Of course, the current progress of this matter is still advancing slowly. After all, there is no way for the Overlord to force the bow. It is not because of physical inability, but mainly because Black cannot pass the test in his heart.

Anyway, it’s a tangle.

All kinds of tangles.

"Ahem"

While Blake's thoughts were flying around with the rising smoke from the burning pipe, a light coughing sound came from behind. It was Miss Maiev who had completed the black moon transfer and was getting up from the dried moon well.

Blake still maintained his "gentlemanly manner" and did not look back. He decided to wait until Maiev got dressed before speaking to her. However, he did not expect that Miss Maiev's first words after completing the ceremony were:

"Where is my armor? Mr. Black, did you bring it?"

"Well?"

The pirate was stunned for a moment, and then heard Miss Maiev hastily add:

"I'm talking about the serious Warden armor, not the obscene one you took out before. Ahem, just understand what I mean."

"Of course, it was just a small accident before. As a man, it is normal to have some personal hobbies."

Blake talked nonsense to put the matter aside, then took out a heavy box from his luggage and placed it at Maiev's feet. After opening it with his own hands and confirming it, he made a "please" gesture to her.

The whole process was done blindfolded.

Although at his current rank, he definitely doesn't need his eyes to take a peek, but he still has to have the proper posture.

There was a sound of armor clashing behind her. It was Maiev's first time putting on the Warden's armor.

The inheritance of the Black Moon Ceremony presided over by Blake has given Maiev all the information about the Watchers, including how to forge Luna Steel and how to make armor. After that, they need to solve the equipment of the Watchers themselves.

The peculiar nature of the Watcher's armor being blessed by the moon determines that although this full-body plate armor may seem very heavy to outsiders, when worn by an official Watcher, it is no different from flexible and light leather armor.

The plate-armored assassin appears!

"I'm fine, Mr. Black, you can turn around now."

The familiar, hoarse voice came from behind. The voice that was almost identical to Maiev in his memory shocked the pirate. He turned his head and looked behind him.

The green Watcher armor wrapped Maiev's body, and the owl helmet covered the beautiful face of the priestess. Armed with the blessed steel, the once delicate little white flower also bloomed with a cold aura.

She imitated the pirate's previous posture and raised her body. The thick cloak with a sharp blade was folded in front of her to cover her whole body, and the long hair tied behind the helmet was swaying in the night, with a vague appearance. The light of the black moon shone down, making the figure in front of him coincide with the figure in the pirate's memory bit by bit.

"very nice."

He took off his pipe and said softly:

"Welcome back, Maiev Shadowsong."

"Buzz"

As the icy arc of light swayed, the strange and ferocious and deadly thorn blade flew out of the pirate's hand, making a scalp-numbing cutting sound in the air. When Maiev raised her hand, it was steadily carried by her. Spiked gauntlets gripped his hands.

The moon phase above the head changed at this moment, and the bright moonlight reflected a cold light on the knife wheel in Maiev's hand.

The figure of the first watcher gradually melted into the moonlight, becoming a true armed maid of Elune and a hunting assassin under the dark moon.

"how do you feel?"

Blake asked, and at the same time he raised his left hand and easily disarmed the blade wheel wielded by Miss Shadowsong who was escaping next to him in a weak collision.

Maiev's figure was knocked out of Shadow Escape in the collision. She lowered her head in embarrassment and said:

"It feels good, but the tactics and techniques in my memory still need time to be honed."

"There are still many demons wandering in the plains outside the city."

Blake threw the knife wheel in his hand to Maiev and complained:

"The work of those giant dragons was too rough. They just used their breath to kill most of the demons and left them alone. For the safety of this city, the watchers should probably launch a 'clean-up' operation.

What do you think? Madam Warden. "

"I'm happy to, Lord Moon Shadow."

Maiev stood up straight and nodded, eager to set off. The pirate shrugged, and the black hood around his neck transformed into a closed combat helmet in the moonlight.

He said:

"With my rank, I won't bully the poor demon brothers, but I don't mind appreciating Ms. Shadowsong's fighting posture and providing some hunting guidance.

Let's set a small goal, one hundred demons before dawn.

I’ll tell you a few more stories on the way. "

"Can I continue making wishes?"

Miss Maiev tilted her head and asked. The pirate pretended to think about it and said in a long voice:

"If you behave well."

The next moment, the two figures disappeared under the moonlight, just like the dancing dim moonlight crossing a silent and tired city and sneaking into the distant night.

Well, the wind is very noisy tonight, and the blood in the wind proves that tonight is a good weather for hunting.

——

A banquet is being held in the Tower of Dark Night.

This is the tradition of the upper elves. After a victory, it must end with a banquet and celebration worthy of victory. Of course, this banquet is also necessary under today's circumstances.

The attack of demons put the common people and nobles in the city under the same pressure. After seeing the grand gathering of demons on the Great Plains of Suramar, many people felt that the end was coming.

But they won.

It's the best thing that they survived, so it's natural to celebrate.

It's a pity that not everyone attended the banquet. None of the really important nobles showed up, which made the nobles who had prepared flattering toasts a little embarrassed. But in this situation, everyone can't ask for too much.

"I really don't know what they are celebrating?"

In the central hall of the Tower of Darkness, the adjutant of Lord Ravencrest, His Excellency Star Eyes, heard the faintly cheerful music. The commander couldn't help complaining:

"We suffered terrible casualties plus Suramar's large shield to survive the first wave of demon attacks, which was not even their main force. There are ten times the number of Destroyers on Zin-Azshari's side. They are roaring and trampling us, maybe even more demons will swarm this land tomorrow.

It's almost like a carnival before the end of the world. "

"They are not soldiers, Lord Star Eyes. You cannot use the standards of soldiers to restrain the nobles."

Ms. Lan Yue, who was hanging her arms, said expressionlessly:

"Perhaps in their view, Suramar, protected by a large shield, is a place that will never fall. They already feel safe, so naturally they want to use fine wine, delicious food, and indulgent pleasure to numb their overly fearful hearts.

I wouldn't be offended by that.

But I'm curious, why did Lord Elisande hold the banquet here? Didn't you receive the notice that there will be a combat meeting tonight? "

Facing Lan Yue's question, the Grand Mage stood by the window with a glass of wine and looked out at the night without looking back:

"This is just a small mistake. The victory reception was supposed to be held at Yuejun Manor, but the war ended in the afternoon. My servants did not have time to inform them, so my people followed tradition and came to the Tower of Dark Night.

This is my mistake. I apologize. Your Excellency Lan Yue, can you ignore this small flaw and get to the point?

When will High Lord Ravencrest arrive? "

"The great lord is recovering from his injuries."

The star-eyed adjutant whispered:

"A red dragon prince was tending to him. In that last great act of heroism but recklessness, the High Lord was so badly wounded that he might not wake up until dawn.

But before the high lord received treatment, he told me his thoughts and plans, and I relayed Lord Ravencase's follow-up plan to the two of them. "

"Well, it's good to have a plan. It really puts people at ease."

Elisande turned around with a false smile that an upper elf should have, raised his glass to Lord Star Eyes, and said:

"Then go ahead, Your Excellency, I'm listening."

Xingyan glanced at Ms. Lanyue, who winked at him. The loyal adjutant nodded, and while drinking a bottle of advanced healing potion to relieve the pain of abdominal internal organs, he said:

“The high lord said that although our victory was difficult, it was of little significance to the overall war situation, especially when looking at the level of the entire empire and even the entire world, Suramar’s victory was simply meaningless.

The demons we killed were not enough to make the Burning Legion change its strategy, and the battle reports sent back from other cities in the past few days perfectly confirmed the views of the great lord.

Demons are already attacking in Elre'Thalas on the border, Shandalar City in the north, Vashj'ir in the east, Ashenvale close to us, and even Mount Hyjal and the barren red soil steppe.

In just a few days, we have lost thirteen cities.

Only the city garrisoned by the Magic Prince could barely resist the Demon Soldier Peak. Suramar's victory inspired them, but courage and morale could not help them win the war in a desperate situation.

The High Lord believes that the next phase of the war must target the source of all disasters, our once glorious capital Zin-Azshari and our fallen Queen Azshara.

We must complete the destruction of the alien portal before the demon army crushes the last foundation of the empire, otherwise, a darker desperate situation will be waiting for us. "

"Well said! As expected of a great lord, it is really gratifying to be so far-sighted. With such a great commander leading the way, why worry about the cause of the resistance army?"

The Grand Magister praised with great satisfaction. It seemed that she had no objection to Lord Ravencrest's strategy, but it was unknown whether she would be willing to follow it.

She is not just a pure Grand Arcanist, Elisande is a politician. When facing this kind of creature, you can't just listen to what they say, it will definitely lead to the ditch.

Under the calm gaze of Ms. Blue Moon, Elisande put down the wine glass, gestured to the attendants around to leave the hall, and activated the barrier in the room to prevent eavesdropping. Then she spoke to the two people in front of her:

"Actually, I have also thought a lot about this war. I have to say that the great lord and I have the same view. I also believe that we must seize the time to destroy the demons' portal.

To be honest, while you were resting, I used the magic tide of the Night Well to tentatively make cautious contact with the Well of Eternity.

It was risky, but I got valuable information. "

The Great Magister said very sincerely:

"First of all, the bad news is that the alien portal, which is getting bigger and bigger and has begun to affect and destroy the spatial structure of the entire world, is not that easy to destroy.

60% of the magic power of the Well of Eternity is used to support and protect the portal.

Perhaps in the early days of its opening, we could still rely on magical objects or interfere with the Well of Eternity to destroy it, but now, it has been integrated with the Well of Eternity.

We missed that opportunity, poor Faroldis took it but still failed.

We have forever lost the possibility of ending the war quickly, which means we have to pay tenfold the price for our mistakes. "

Elisande shook his head and said:

"We can't destroy it, no matter how many spellcasters we try.

But the good news is, I have a new idea. What I am about to say may scare you, but according to my repeated calculations, that is the only possibility for us to win,"

The Grand Mage paused and looked at Commander Star Eyes and Ms. Lan Yue. She took a deep breath, and a hint of ambition shone in her charming eyes.

She lowered her voice as if it were breaking news and said to the two colleagues in front of her:

"Let's blow up the Well of Eternity!"
