Shadow Trails in Azeroth

"Treat their injuries, don't let them die."

Blake played with the blood-stained gold coin in his hand and said something to the black-robed ship doctor who ran over from the mist.

Ms. Natalie nodded, commanding the three tall antlered tauren to pick up the three dying children of the night and quickly retreat to the coast not far away.

Captain Grayson's ghost ship is waiting for them there.

Anares Yuejun, who was guarded by two tauren, also grabbed a loaded musket and walked to Black. She was about to explain her plan to her captain, but was waved by Black. interrupt.

"Now is not the time to talk."

The captain glanced at the fog that was gradually dissipating ahead, and said to the girl from Yue County:

"Since you have a plan for your family-related affairs, you can execute it yourself. I only want to see the results. In addition, your sister has made a promise to me.

But she missed the date.

She may have thought that an agreement with a pirate was just that.

Just like the political games you elf nobles play, as long as I give enough apologies and gifts, I can forget about this.

Unfortunately this is not the case. "

Blake threw the blood-stained cursed gold coin to Anaris, who had a complicated expression. He said:

"I made an empiricist mistake. I thought your sister was more useful than you, but it turned out that I was wrong. I personally changed my destiny, but I was still relying on past experience.

I believed too much in strangers I had only met once, but ignored that they were not what I imagined.

Take it.

When we dock in Suramar, you can go see your sister for me. You can do whatever you want. I have only one request.

Let her remember this lesson

I want her to deeply remember the price of doing something wrong. I want her to deeply understand how rude it is to violate the agreement between me and her.

I want her to wake up screaming from nightmares every night for the rest of her life when she remembers this.

Don't show such fear, my Captain Yuejun. "

The pirate reached out and patted Anares on the shoulder, and he said softly:

"I don't want to punish your sister, I am a very reasonable person. Punishment is just a means. If scolding is effective, there is no need for the blade to appear.

I just want her to realize her mistake deeply.

You see, the fact that I leave this matter to you means that I haven't given up on her yet.

If you don't convey my meaning well enough, if your sister doesn't realize her mistake, then I don't mind coming in person. "

"She'll learn a lesson, I promise."

The girl from Yue County clenched the cursed gold coin in her hand, the slightly cold touch irritating her skin, and the blood stained on the gold coin made her very uncomfortable.

But she didn't show it, she just made a sincere promise to Black, her captain and commander.

"I believe in your determination, Anarres. You will make a great pirate. I see your potential."

Blake walked into the fog with the moon blade in hand, and said without looking back:

“Your legend will spread across this sea.

Not because of the influence your last name brings, but because of what you do next. Be brave enough to step out of the shadow of Yue County and accomplish the great deeds of Anarres.

Go ahead.

Don't bother me trying to find my place.

I was bullied by the leader of the Watchers, and I wanted to bully them too. Alas, I didn't know that I was also such a vengeful person.

What a shame. "

The girl from Yue County did not dare to disturb the captain's "leisure and elegance" of bullying others. She took out her handkerchief and wanted to wipe the blood off the gold coin, but after hesitating for a moment, she still put the contaminated gold coin into her pocket.

"Mr. Moros."

Anares took a deep breath and asked to the empty side:

"Is the 'study' of my butler Runas over?"

"It's still a little worse."

The undead butler in a tuxedo whispered in the shadows:

"He has many problems that need to be corrected, and many of his habits are not in line with the values ​​of upper class society."

"Please complete his training as soon as possible."

Yuejun girl said:

"When I go back to Suramar City, I need him to accompany me. In addition, there is no need to pursue perfection too much. We are just a group of pirates, as long as we have that meaning.

No matter how elegant you hold the knife, it can't change the nature of robbery, can it? "

"This could not be more wrong, Miss Anarris."

Moros said softly:

"Being a pirate doesn't mean you have to give up who you are.

It's just a career and it doesn't represent your life. Just like my master enjoyed the joy of plundering, he never forgot the country where he came from and his identity.

You should learn from him too.

It's time to be elegant at all times.

No matter how difficult the situation is, you can't lower your head. Maintaining dignity is your best response to all malice. If you lose yourself and truly become a 'pirate', then you will lose your characteristics in the eyes of your master.

Become one of those who can be sacrificed at any time. "

Anaris was stunned for a moment.

She thought these words made sense and thanked the undead butler, but Moros was no longer where he was. As Black's butler, he had a lot to do.

Windrunner's mother also carried an exaggerated war bow and walked through the increasingly sparse fog. Anaris followed her and asked her about the story of the High Elf Kingdom.

Just as the two approached Grayson's ghost ship docked on the coast, a loud noise burst from the direction of the Watcher's Cave.

Ms. Lilesa turned around and saw a black shadow flying into the sky like an eagle, and the thick evil energy wrapped around it gathered into a flying storm in the sky.

With the vision of the legendary ranger, he could clearly see a figure with two wings on his back flying rapidly through the sky in the billowing energy like black smoke, flying into the distance.

"Illidan Stormrage, the traitor from thousands of years ago, escaped."

Windrunner's mother sighed, and saw some heavily armored Hippogryphs carrying the Watchers into the sky, pursuing Illidan in the direction of his escape.

But their speed is much slower than the demon hunters.

Can't catch up.

The Ranger General shook his head, boarded the ghost ship, and approached the Nagfar, but within a few minutes, there was another sharp bird chirping in the airspace near the watcher, like the arrival of a flock of crows.

This made the well-informed Ms. Windrunner's face change slightly. She raised her head to inspect the sky, and soon discovered a large black shadow approaching at the end of the fog.

They flap their huge black wings and fly in groups, harnessing the power of the natural wind in flight, making them faster than any winged bird in nature.

Its body shape resembles that of a crow.

But it was abnormally large, enough that behind each of them was a moon priest wearing a moon-white divine robe, or a ranger wearing a chainmail holding a war bow.

These big crows are covered with broad black feathers, but there is a unified symbol on their chest or head that symbolizes their identity.

Although there were only a handful of flying crows, these guys drove the strong wind together to create a small hurricane, quickly dispersing all the remaining sea fog above Watch Island.

"Storm Crow!"

General Lilesa recognized those unique crows. She turned back and yelled at the ghost pirate who was also looking up at this strange scene:

"The druids of Val'sharah have come to support the Warden, and they've come fast.

Quickly, send us back to the Naqfar. These raptor druids can harness the power of hurricanes. Once entangled by them, it will be difficult for us to escape. "

"But General, the Nagfar can dive underwater."

Grayson hurriedly ordered his ghost ship to speed up and sail towards the Nagfar. He added:

"It's no big deal that these weird crows can control the wind. If we hide under the sea, they can't do anything to us."

"madness!"

General Windrunner angrily said:

"Druids use the power of nature. The sky, land and ocean are their home ground. Under the pursuit of nearly a hundred elite druids, even if it dives into the water, the Nagfar is by no means safe.

The Moon Priests also came.

Once darkness falls, we still can't get rid of the druid's pursuit. At that time, the kaldorei will be strengthened again under the moonlight, and with the watchers chasing us, there will be only one battle left to greet us. Failed miserably. "

"Send a message to His Highness Black and ask him to come back immediately. The looting of Watch Island is over and we have to leave."

——

"I just knocked down the second Watcher."

Black was obviously unhappy about being called back to the ship. He was holding a moon blade in one hand and a captured Warden Owl Helmet in the other.

It seems that he intends to take this thing as a trophy.

On the deck of the ghost ship that had dived into the sea and was speeding towards the waters off Watch Island, the returning captain threw the helmet in his hand to his first mate, and complained to Windrunner's mother:

"Aren't the druids here to support us? There's nothing to be afraid of.

At this point in time, those great druids who have experienced the ancient war are still sleeping in the beast's den, busy playing kissing games with the green dragon ladies in the Emerald Dream.

Those who can come to support are only second-tier characters in Val'sharah. "

"Really? My disciple, it's really a relief to see you so confident."

The ranger general with her arms folded ignored Black's bragging words and said coldly:

"Then please explain to me, why are the thirty elite druids who are currently chasing the Nagfar in the sea and have formed an attack formation led by a legend?

And in the storm crows patrolling the sea and sky, I also felt the aura of these two legends.

So, do the second-tier characters in your perception refer to these elven legends who have experienced tens of millions of years of time honing their strength? Do you understand the current situation?

There were three Archdruids alone!

This does not include the Moon Priests and Rangers in the Moon Temple of Val'sharah. It is conservatively estimated that there are at least five Elf Legends currently gathered on Watch Island.

This was even before Maiev Shadowsong went to hunt down Illidan.

This is just their vanguard force!

You said that Val'sharah is the holy land of the druids. There is a natural gate to Moonglade, and strong men can be constantly mobilized from Mount Hyjal.

The Kaldorei are indeed hopelessly powerful, and now we have them.

How are you prepared to deal with this situation? "

"Simple."

The pirate snapped his fingers.

Glancing towards the front of the deck, Dean Blue Moon and Archmage Elan were placing five broken Tide Stones on a makeshift stand.

When the broken stone approached, there was sea-blue energy intertwined between the cracks, beating back and forth on the stone like an extremely unstable electric current.

In the deep and dark water now, there is a light that illuminates the deep sea.

Blake looked at the Tidestone that had been put back together.

He glanced at General Lilesa with her arms folded again. He didn't know if it was an illusion, but he could always feel that Windrunner's mother was looking a bit stern.

Very guilty.

Is there something you are hiding from yourself?

"I plan to unite the Kaldorei who came to help."

Blake glanced at Windrunner's mother with strange eyes and explained:

"I am about to leave the Broken Islands, and I have to leave something to show that I have been here. Just think of it as leaving them a big surprise. After all, every robbery needs a big scene as the end.

It just so happens that these druids who have slept for ten thousand years can see the changes in the world.

Are you ready? Dean. "

He shouted to the front of the deck, and Dean Lanyue properly pushed the Tidestone fragments in his hands outwards, and then tested the comfort of the energy operation.

He pushed up his crystal glasses and nodded to Blake.

"very good."

The pirate raised his left hand to communicate with the ship's spirit.

"Let's say goodbye to the confident druids we meet for the first time, and make another fortune from them."

"Naqfar, follow my order and come up!"
