Shadow Trails in Azeroth

"Your Excellency Sun Chaser will take action today."

In the hiding spot in the city of Zin-Azshari, Natalas Windrunner, who ventured out to join the Highborne Rebel Army, took a sip of water and spoke to a group of sharpening knives in front of him in a hoarse voice. arrive:

"Steward Sangunar told me that Lord Dath'Remar will personally lead people to rescue Ms. Tyrande Windspeaker and escort her to where the civilians are.

Weapons have been distributed. As long as nothing goes wrong, there will be an additional army in the city tonight to resist Azshara's tyranny. "

"You are asking them to die!"

Malfurion Stormrage gritted his teeth and yelled:

"Those are civilians!"

"That's enough, brother, put away your boring sympathy!"

Illidan Stormrage, who was wearing an eye patch, put his hand on Malfurion's shoulder and said in a deep voice:

"We are in the devil's base camp. This is a war. There are no civilians left here! There are only soldiers. If they don't take up arms, do they need us to escort them out of the devil's siege?

Dath'Remar had done her best.

You can't ask for more. "

"Yes, Lord Sun Chaser is under a lot of pressure."

Natalas Windrunner, who is Sunstrider's retainer, also said:

"All the servants in the entire Sunstrider Manor have been mobilized. They are going to face the imperial guards under Azshara. Lord Sunstrider has even left a suicide note.

What I am worried about now is that if the vanguard army outside the city cannot rush into the city in time after they raise the flag of resistance, then"

"Put your worries aside, Windrunner."

Ms. Maiev, who was out conducting reconnaissance, stepped out of the floating shadows. The thorn blade in her hand was constantly dripping with sticky demon blood. It seemed that today's investigation was not going well.

The new leader of the Watch said to the worried young ranger:

"Instead of doubting the courage of the vanguard, it is better to worry about whether the Sun Chaser can walk out alive from the palace full of demons. Tonight's resistance is a signal. Once he takes action there, not only Zin-Azshari will be caught in the flames of war, but also the demons The final battle with the anti-demon coalition will also begin.

This is the final battle.

Win or die! There is no third option. "

"well said."

A sinister and deep smile appeared on Illidan Stormrage's thin and ferocious face. He stroked the crimson moon blade in his hand and said to the people around him:

"Stop worrying about others and think about yourself. Malfurion, you should also prepare. We are going to pick up Tyrande outside Azshara's palace and escort her to her people."

"That's what we're here for."

Malfurion touched the natural horn on his waist. He took a deep breath and temporarily put those benevolent thoughts behind him, and moved outside the hiding place with his brother and the Watchers.

Nataras Windrunner will be responsible for taking them into the sewers leading to Azshara's palace and waiting at the predetermined pick-up point.

Shandis Yuyue, who was accompanying them, was a little nervous. Although this young girl had superb archery skills and had experienced wars with demons, such a near-death rescue still made her feel stressed.

But thinking about seeing Mindo tonight, the young girl felt a little calmer.

"Are you afraid of it?"

A hoarse voice came from behind. Shandris, who was adjusting her armor, turned around suddenly and saw the mysterious Warden Warden taking off her owl helmet.

Yuyue has always been curious about how these sassy and capable big sisters are trained. She is also curious about who their leader is. When she saw Ma Wei's face, the young girl immediately showed surprise. expression.

"Lady Maiev!"

She rushed up to give Maiev a hug.

She knew that she was dragged out of the ruins by this lady and treated by Mindo. Without her, she might have died in the ruins of the Demon War.

She is also his own savior.

Mindo told her that Ms. Maiwi was her other mother.

"I told Tyrande that day that that brave boy would definitely do something great, but I didn't expect that your war would come so quickly."

Maiev looked at the brave girl in front of her with emotion. She didn't dare to sneak into a city full of demons when she was so old.

She looked at Shandis, who straightened her back. The childishness and youthfulness of a young man could still be seen on this girl's face. There was still fear beating in the depths of her eyes, but she did not choose to give in but faced it head on.

"Stay alive, children, you are the future of the elves."

The iceberg-like warden lady gave a brief voice of encouragement, but then she felt something protruding from the shadow behind her and stuffing it into her palm.

Maiev reacted and took out the thing and handed it to Shandis Yuyue in front of her.

That's a bow.

It looks like a typical elf horned eagle bow design, but there is a crescent moon symbol on the bow. It should be a "little toy" that my crooked god spent a little time making.

Along with the war bow, there was a bag of sharp arrows that exuded a natural aura. The arrows were directly catalyzed by living wood. They were not only sharp but could grow and activate on the enemy.

"Take it with you, child, and may Elune guide your arrows and Moonshade give you courage."

Maiev said softly:

"Bring Tyrande back, her people need her."

"Yeah, I swear!"

Shandris took the bow and arrows gifted by Lady Maiev with both hands.

She put the weapon on her back and gave a military salute to Maiev who was standing in the shadows, then put on her helmet and followed Malfurion out of the hiding spot.

After everyone left, only Maiev and the man hiding in her shadow were left in the room.

The lady stepped forward and closed the door, looking back at Blake, who was also packing his bags.

But it was much more convenient for him. With a wave of his hand, the magical black prophet costume turned into the black moon armor for combat. But then he felt that this iconic armor was too cool, and it made him feel uncomfortable. The clothes changed again, shaping into a black bat suit.

As the dragon-wing-like cloak enveloped his body, Black, who was wearing a half-faced armor, moved his neck. He looked back at Maiev and found that the latter had a strange look in his eyes.

"What's wrong?"

Lord Evil God asked.

Miss Marvel looked him up and down and said:

"You know, owls are the natural enemies of bats, right?"

"So what?"

Pirate Chip took out a bottle of wine, rinsed his mouth, and said:

"I, a bat, can hang you watchers up and beat them. Besides, if you are such a beautiful and charming 'owl', then I, an old bat, will be willing to be captured by you.

You see, this is the final battle.

I should leave here when this battle is over, and now there are almost four hours until the appointed time at night, and there are only two of us here."

"What do you want to say?"

Young Miss Maiev tilted her head and rolled her eyes cutely.

"I noticed that you seem to like children."

Blake pursed his lips, took out two bottles of less serious pink potions from his bag, tossed them in his hands, and said:

"The relationship between you and Miss Yuyue is really complicated. How about we seize the last moment to create someone? It will also prevent you from being lonely for ten thousand years after I leave. It would be great to have a child with you.

Speaking of which, I plan to leave this thing to Brother Stormrage and Ms. Tyrande. It's really a headache that it's not used. How about we use it here? "

This bold invitation made Miss Marvel's cheeks flush. She shook her head and said:

"No, the child is too much. Let your other wives give birth to you in ten thousand years. I have given everything to Ms. Elune. All I can give you is this heart.

Beyond that, you can't expect more. "

"That's too much. I am your god after all. It's not greedy to ask for more, right?"

Black snorted, and in the silence, he hooked up with Maiev. The warden lady stepped forward and let the evil god's hand hold her shoulders.

The two of them stood by the window, watching the afterglow of dusk above their heads reflect strange streams of light on the gloomy sky filled with evil energy.

They didn't say much, probably because Blake had been preparing for the moment of separation and had said all that needed to be said in the past few days.

"Is it enough?"

The pirate asked softly, and Maiev, who rested her head on his shoulder, whispered:

"What's enough?"

"Are the interactions between us, the sparks created by our contacts and hearts, and these memories enough for you to survive the days and nights of the next ten thousand years alone?"

Blake said warmly:

"If that's not enough, we have the last four hours to create more memories."

"I thought you would use these four hours to forget it, pretending I didn't say anything."

Maiev realized that the man next to her had no desire tumbling in her heart at this time.

She once thought that a god should be decisive and cold, but at this moment, she really felt the complexity and reluctance in the heart of the person next to her.

He doesn't want to leave.

He may be thinking about staying with him for the next ten thousand years, and he doesn't want to be alone.

At this moment, Master Yueying's feelings for his lover overrode everything in his heart, and even temporarily fascinated his eyes, making him want to let go of those grand achievements and the pursuit of freedom for the first time in his life.

The shackles have become

"You want to stay, your Maiev is happy."

A smile appeared on Miss Maiev's face. She brushed her hair, kissed Blake on the cheek, and whispered:

"But your Maiev can't be so selfish, because our world and yours still need you.

Don't be like a child who doesn't want to let go. We will be reunited in the future. Of course, good memories are not enough. To survive ten thousand years, I need more.

I want to see the sea.

I want to see the place where you were born in 10,000 years. I want to see the place where we will have sparks in 10,000 years. I want to see the place where we finally come together.

Is it too much to ask this before the decisive battle begins? "

"Well, if you were an ordinary man here, your request would definitely be too much. It would be equivalent to asking me to help you pick a star."

Blake shrugged, held Maiev's slender waist, opened a void rift, and said:

"You should be lucky that your husband is an omnipotent god. Four hours is more than enough. If we hurry up, we can still leave some good memories for each other before we part ways.

Put on your helmet and be good.

It’s going to be a bumpy ride next. "

——

Time flew by to midnight.

After a tiring day at the Well of Eternity, Dath'Remar Sunstrider dragged his exhausted body out of the Queen's palace, but he did not go home directly. Instead, he talked with his worried or excited companions along the way. With gestures and eyes, these guys who had been planning for a long time separated with a tacit understanding, each running towards their own destiny.

Outside the palace, the Sun Chaser steward waiting here welcomed his master into the luxurious magic chariot.

On the closed chariot seat, Sun Chaser reached out and opened the box placed on the seat. A scarlet red magic sword made of crystal, with a strange and exaggerated shape like the wings of a phoenix, was lying quietly in it.

The great nobleman picked up the newly forged sword and stroked the warm blade with his slender fingers. The firelight reflected by the crystal illuminated his eyes.

It is a flame, a new flame, a new fire ignited in the decaying forest, just like the name of the Sun Chaser. He is not willing to surrender to the night, and he wants to chase the place where the sun rises.

Even if the price is death.

"Set off!"

So said the Sun Chaser.

The chariot set off and left under the gaze of the Queen's guards, then changed direction in a hidden corner.

Butler Sangunar, who changed into an assassin's attire, followed by the loyal guards of the great nobles, put on magic armor, and the murderous Sun Chaser advanced towards the palace cage.

At the same time, throughout the manors in the noble district of Zin-Azshari, the civilians who had been sheltered from the massacre were walking through the night under the leadership of the noble private soldiers.

They were to gather in the deserted area of ​​the Moon Temple ruins.

In the forest outside the city of Zin Azshari, the soldiers and commanders of the vanguard army also unsheathed their swords and guns. Ms. Elya Blue Moon, who was wearing a mage's battle skirt, looked towards the capital with a crystal staff. The magic barrier there still stands, and when it is closed, the war begins.

The deep clouds in the midnight night dissipated little by little, revealing a dim arc of the moon. It seemed that Lady Elune couldn't bear to see the slaughter that would take place on this land, so she used the dark moon phase to cast an icy shadow over the bloody battlefield. Gauze.

Emperor Shaohao and the Monkey King carrying a stick came forward, and he nodded to Ms. Lan Yue.

The Grand Arcanist smiled back. The Monkey King, who was eating a banana, looked at the sky. The monkey in the elf magic armor shook his tail and suddenly said:

"This moon is really uncomfortable. I really want to tear it to pieces."

"Be patient, my friend."

Shaohao tightened the white tiger glove on his arm and said:

"There's always a chance."

——

"boom"

The lock of the cage was smashed by a halberd, and Tyrande stood up and rushed out of the cage.

She saw that the royal guards guarding her at the entrance of the underground cell had been killed in a pool of blood by Dath'Rema's men, and she knew that the last moment had come.

"The magic shackles on your hands were made by Azshara herself. I can't open it."

Sunstrider threw a warbow to Tyrande and said:

"Time is running out, come with me."

"Um."

Windspeaker said no more, put the quiver behind him and rushed out of the cell with Dath'Rema. However, when they rushed out of this gloomy place, they were blocked by nearly a hundred elven guards mixed with ferocious demons. their way.

This made the Sun Chaser's complexion change drastically.

Then he saw a proud figure wearing gorgeous clothes and a scepter on his waist and a charming woman walking out of the military formation.

"Dath'Remar Sunstrider, your shameless betrayal has brought shame to your family. If you still have any conscience, you should kill yourself. The Supreme Queen will leave you with the last dignity."

The arrogant guy said so.

"Savis!"

It has reached this moment, and any words you say are empty.

Dath'Rema called out the name of the bastard in front of him, rushed up with his halberd, and roared:

"It was you who introduced demons into this world! It was you who was the first to bow down to the demons outside the realm! It was you who introduced the wise Azshara into that fallen future.

you!

You are a sinner of the empire!

Die! "

"hehe"

Facing Sun Chaser's scolding and reunion, Lord Xavius ​​sneered and took a step back, and the guards beside him rushed forward, with sarcasm and indifference shining in this guy's dark green eyes.

As the two armies connected, Tyrande was also targeted by the coquettish poisonous snake.

"Snapped"

The sharp snake-shaped dagger brushed against the war bow.

In the fatal edge, Ms. Vashj viciously said to the embarrassed Moon Priest in front of her:

"You stepped out of your cage, sweetie, and you earned yourself a ticket to hell."

"Come on, bear with me, it won't hurt too much."
