Shadow Trails in Azeroth

Chapter 310 19. What is the use of such a tree demon who can’t act cute or cry? ——【2435】

(Additional update for ASSASSINZZC brothers [4/5])

The conversation with Veleny left Mother Windrunner in a dark mood.

Although she didn't know exactly what happened in Suramar City, from Veleny's inconsistent explanations, she could still feel the empathy of being a fellow elf and seeing her compatriots suffer disaster.

And, there was an unreasonable feeling that made her feel flustered.

She didn't know where this emotion came from, but she had a vague idea.

Black, the bad guy, must bring her to Suramar, not just to let himself fight for him. The stinky pirate is deliberately hiding something.

This made Windrunner's mother very dissatisfied. After Vereny was helped away by Hal, she took the initiative to ask:

"Blake, you asked me to come here, after all."

"Do not ask."

The pirate waved his hand, sat on the stone on the edge of the ruins, and looked down with interest.

He said to General Lilesa without looking back:

"It's not a good thing. Don't worry, you will be able to see it when we set out to rescue Verenni's daughter later. Now let's watch the performance of my useless men."

Mother Windrunner glanced at the magic-shrouded city of Suramar in the distance, and then at the pool below the ruined hillside. The pirates under Black's command were currently smashing open the cave leading to the underground.

They were eager to catch the monster chasing Vereni and Howl from the cave.

The captain just said that.

There should be things left by the elves in this cave. As long as they can kill the monster hiding in the darkness, the captain allows them to search the underground cave, and everything they find inside belongs to them.

The pirates who hang out on the endless sea don’t know that the things left by the elves are the most valuable!

If you are lucky, everyone here can make a fortune today.

The pirates' enthusiasm was ignited by the seemingly easy wealth. They broke open the mountain wall to a large enough size and dug a large pit and trap outside the pool.

Finally, by drawing lots, two people were sent holding torches to seduce the "centaur" monster in the darkness, hoping to lure it out.

The hunter Atumen was riding behind his beloved Midnight. He was holding a broad-bladed sword and the tattered red cloak was swinging behind him. He was obviously ready to fight the monster.

Blake's attention was also attracted by his group of energetic subordinates.

The pirates stepped forward and sat on the hillside of the ruins, watching with interest as the pirates lured the monsters in the dark.

But this time, the monster seemed to have learned its lesson.

No matter how much the two unlucky ones who got the lot shouted and waved torches in the darkness, the monster never came out. They didn't dare go further in for fear of being trampled to death by the monster's hooves.

"coward!"

Black cursed, dropped the Skull of Gul'dan in his hand, and threw it into the arms of a North Sea pirate with several missing teeth. He shook his fingers and said:

"Use this. It can't resist the sweetness of the magic. Take it and walk towards the cave. Remember to run faster later."

"Oh, yes, Captain."

The pirate with a calico turban on his head and a missing tooth swallowed, he must have been scared.

But the captain had spoken, and he did not dare to say that he would not go.

At this time, he could only strengthen his courage by holding the sailor's knife in one hand, holding the skull of Gul'dan in the other hand, and walked deeper into the smashed cave under the light of the torch set by his accomplices behind him.

The pirates outside were holding fishing nets, ropes and spears in their hands, holding their breath, waiting for the monsters in the cave to rush out.

These guys have been plundering on the sea all year round and have seen a lot of strange things. They are all careless and heartless. As long as they are not sent as bait to explore the way, they are still very courageous.

And the toothless pirate was holding the Skull of Gul'dan. The further he moved forward in the darkness, the more he could hear the restless movement in front of him.

The rich magic power emanating from the skull is like a tempting fish bait, exuding sweetness and teasing the heartstrings of the creatures in the darkness in front of them. All creatures on this land have been transformed by this kind of magic power.

They are all born with magic power and feed on magic power.

Just as Blake said, they couldn't resist the sweetness of the mellow magic power. In just a few seconds, a loud noise came from the dark cave.

It was like the rapid sound of a war horse's hooves colliding with the ground when galloping rapidly.

In the looming firelight, the toothless pirate's eyes widened and he saw in the darkness in front of him a three-meter-tall monster rushing towards him with its four hooves raised wildly.

Immediately, the two bodies started to tremble in fright.

"Mom!"

He yelled randomly, turned around and ran away.

The guy behind the torch reacted faster, turned around, rolled and crawled out of the cave. Hearing screams from the cave, the pirates outside the cave immediately became energetic.

Lyressa on the ruins also raised the bow in her hand, but Black reached out and pressed it down.

"It's just a Faldorei tree demon, they can deal with it."

"Faldorei? Dryad?"

Doubt flashed in Windrunner's mother's eyes. She had just heard the word "Sha'dorei" half an hour ago and understood that it was the child of the night. Now "Fal'dorei" would pop up.

The word means "spider spirit" in Salas language.

This made Ms. Windrunner surprised and asked:

"How many types of elves live in Suramar?"

Blake felt the vibration of the rock below his buttocks. He held the dwarf pipe in his mouth and said vaguely:

"Three kinds."

As soon as these words were said, the two pirates who had been used as bait rushed out of the cave. They jumped out to the side and rolled several times in the pool on the ground. They were picked up by others in disgrace.

The Faldorei Dryad, seduced by these two guys, charged out of the dark cave at an extremely fast speed. As a result, he was met with dazzling eyes, causing the strange thing to scream.

It seemed to be afraid of the sun, but it was too late to slow down.

He could only fall into the trap dug by the pirates in advance in panic, and was trapped in the fishing nets thrown down by the surrounding pirates.

A dozen spears were stabbed at random, quickly stabbing the tree demon and making it scream.

"Huh? It's a woman!"

Silver Moon Harry, who was stabbing downwards with a spear in his hand, heard the panicked cry with a hint of coquettishness, and the old man's talent immediately activated, and he shouted:

"Stop it! This is a guy who can communicate. Don't kill her yet."

In the shout of the old sea dog, a group of pirates stopped their chaotic attacks, stood in a circle beside the trap, stretched their heads and looked down.

This is a dryad.

She has a deer-like lower body and a short cute tail, but her upper body is that of an elf. She wears a bra made of animal skin on her slender waist, which covers her well-developed female features.

The skin of this strange creature is very similar to that of the Son of the Night. It is purple with a grayish-white appearance, and has some weird transparent scales on its body that can fluoresce even in the dark.

She had two well-developed hands, which were protecting her body from the stab wound. Her face, which was very similar to that of an elf, shone with undisguised panic and fear.

There are small antlers on the top of his head and long hair hanging down. He is holding his own crystallized spear in his hand, trying to protect himself with this weapon.

"Wow!"

Several pirates in the crowd suddenly exclaimed.

But not only because of the wild and delicate temperament of this weird tree demon, but also because this tree demon is very different from the legendary forest tree demon in the kingdom of the night elves and the moon god.

"She has gems on her body! She must be very valuable!"

A sharp-eyed pirate yelled.

Indeed, the hooves, back and antlers of this dryad were dotted with very pure gem-like crystals. The pair of antlers were completely crystallized and emitted colorful light in the sun, no different from gems.

"Use the Snake Man to blow darts."

Silver Moon Harry observed carefully and found that the face of this dryad was very different from that of a high elf, and he immediately lost interest.

The old sea dog said to the pirates behind him:

"Bring her up after she's been poisoned!"

Immediately, several pirates took out the blowguns equipped by the snake people from their waists, put them to their mouths, puffed up their cheeks, and blew fiercely at the Faldorei tree demon struggling in the trap.

Several poisonous arrows with a strong paralysis effect were pierced into the tree demon's body, causing it to twitch quickly. A minute later, the pirates shouted a slogan and dragged it out of the trap with a rope.

Some cheap guys took advantage of the opportunity of tying it up to rub oil on the dryad's well-developed upper body, and a few greedy guys took out daggers to cut off the dryad's crystallized antlers.

These ignorant guys stubbornly believed that this must be some kind of priceless gem.

But he was driven away by Sir Attumen. As Medivh's former chief hunter, Attumen was not a spellcaster, but he was well-informed.

He knew that this was not a gem, it was just highly concentrated and crystallized magic power.

The tree demon in front of him has been transformed by magic power and turned into another kind of creature that is completely different from flesh and blood.

And, it looks vicious.

The deer-like body is supported by four hooves, coupled with the straight upper body and the crystallized war spear in its hand, it looks extremely tall and dangerous.

But in fact, this little thing's combat effectiveness is very poor, and his combat experience is pitiful. He is quite powerful but doesn't know how to use it, otherwise he wouldn't be caught by a group of stinky pirates using a simple trap.

This is just a cub.

no doubt.

It would be a humiliation for a powerful hunter like Sir Attumen to hunt such a helpless cub.

"Your Highness, this creature has the qualifications to become your knight."

When Blake came over with Windrunner's mother, Atumen got off his horse and suggested to Blake angrily:

"As long as it wears heavy armor, it is a natural knight that combines man and horse. It only needs training and can rival the best cavalry in the alliance in a short time.

Since we can catch one here, we can definitely catch more in this land. A team of only a hundred tree demons can resist several times the number of enemies on land. "

"This is not a pure tree demon born from the power of nature. It is more like the product of the Son of the Night elf being twisted by some kind of power. Its whole body is full of disharmony."

Ms. Lylitha Windrunner questioned. She carefully examined the Faldorei dryad in front of her and said:

"There aren't many such rare creatures, right?"

"Don't worry, ma'am."

Blake looked at the tree demon in front of him who was stunned by the poisonous arrows, stepped on the ground with his foot, and said:

"There are many such things in the pits under our feet. Faldorei has built a labyrinth-like kingdom under Suramar over thousands of years.

They multiply in the darkness and give birth to all kinds of strange monsters. Their number may not be as numerous as the Nightborne in Suramar City, but they are definitely considerable.

However, they are not my target for coming to the Broken Islands this time, so I will stop by tonight and catch them if I can. If I can’t, forget about it.

Just come back later when you have time. "

As he spoke, the pirate kicked the unconscious crystallized tree demon in front of him, turned to Atumen beside him and said:

"This prisoner is yours.

Once it wakes up, let it go. It will lead us to the entrance to the lair of the Faldorei spider elves. The tracking will be left to you, my hunter.

In their lair, there is something I must get. "

Blake took off his pipe and took a closer look at the dryad in front of him. After a few seconds, he shook his head and sighed:

"Oh, no matter how you look at it, she is not as cute as Miluen. She has such a bad appearance and can't act cute. She is not qualified to be a group favorite. If you can survive this time, use the waste and send her to fight."

After saying that, the pirate turned around, looked at the sky, and said to Windrunner's mother beside him:

"Let's do good things while we still have some time, mentor.

Go and rescue the kidnapped little girl of the Night, and by the way answer your doubts just now, why I must bring you to Suramar.

There are some things along the way that I want to show you, and that's the answer I'll give you. "
