Shadow Trails in Azeroth

Chapter 857 187. The Governor is here - additional update for good brother Huo Zhengting [1720]

Finna said she was joking.

But no one thought that the stupid warrior was joking when he was so angry.

So it didn't take long for Fenner's new scandal to become the latest gossip on the Nagfar.

In fact, when she witnessed the first real awakening of the Holy Sword of Salameni that day, Finna Golden Sword, as a legendary warrior, was really shocked.

In all her memories and in all the legends about weapons, she had never seen or heard of any other weapon with such a strange effect.

It can also be divided and combined.

Hell, it's a weapon, not a brick.

But Fenner's greatest advantage as a warrior is that she is heartless. Even though she knows that the ghost sailors on the ship are laughing at her, she doesn't care at all.

She eats and drinks when she needs to, and occasionally goes down to the cabin to participate in the "Snail Contest" held regularly by the murlocs. Although she loses every time, she enjoys it.

Of course, for soldiers, daily combat training is indispensable.

The clanking sound of weapons clashing constantly came from the deck of the Nagfar. In the dim moonlight, two swift figures came and went in a staggered confrontation.

They did not use real lethal force, but purely trained their reaction and combat skills.

Finna, holding two magic steel swords, fought back and forth with Black, who was holding Salamani.

Various elves and human combat skills are at your fingertips, sometimes violent, sometimes light, demonstrating this legendary warrior's super talent in this area.

And Blake, who was fighting against her, was also a skilled person.

He is proficient in the different combat methods of assassin factions such as elves, humans, orcs, and dwarfs. He also has secret combat systems such as watcher combat skills, so it is not difficult to deal with Fenner's attack.

Occasionally, he would make a wild and imaginative counterattack, which shocked Fenner to the point where her hair stood on end.

After another two-sword slash was blocked, Blake put his hands together, and the two one-handed swords instantly merged into a heavy slashing sword. After getting up and spinning to accumulate power, Blake struck a powerful raptor strike, which was intertwined in Fenner's hands. The blocked magic steel sword flew away.

Two blood-red long swords swirled and fell, colliding several times on the ground.

"No fight, no fight."

The stupid warrior spread his hands with envy and dissatisfaction and complained:

"That monster sword of yours is too much. It has the destructive power of a two-handed sword and the swiftness and precision of a one-handed sword. It can also be converted into each other. This is pure bullying."

"Let's do it again, it's not done yet."

Black held Salamani and challenged Fenna to fight. In the hollow above the hilt of the battleship sword in his hand, the shadow ball of light danced like an open eye.

"Don't come, you are bullying others."

Fenner snorted, picked up the two swords she had obtained from the devil, put away the weapons, and said to Blake:

"I feel like I suffered a huge loss. I was the first to find the sword at that time. It should be mine."

"I know what you want to say, Finna."

Blake shook his head helplessly and said:

"Even if I give it to you, you won't be able to break it. To awaken the holy sword, you need it to actively cooperate with you, but the sword forged by the upper elf also has the character of an elf.

It is very arrogant. I am not belittling you, but your experience and size are probably difficult to satisfy its appetite. "

"Let me try again! I'm in good condition today. I think I can break it open today. I almost broke it yesterday. I felt it."

Fenna puffed up her cheeks and shouted unwillingly.

The pirate shrugged, handed her the sword in his hand, then took out the wine bottle from his arms and opened the lid.

With a look that looked silly, she looked at Fenner exerting herself there.

As soon as Salamani was in Fenner's hand, the shadow ball of light above the sword's hilt dissipated. Fenner grabbed the bare sword and imitated Blake's easy "breaking chopsticks" look, and kept exerting strength with both arms.

The muscles on her slender arms were bulging, and her face was flushed with pain. Even Tyr's divine power was forced out, and circles of silver light surrounded her body.

But she tried her best, but she couldn't make the sword separate at all.

"It's not a matter of strength, poor Fenner."

Blake couldn't stand it any longer, so he stepped forward and took Salamaini over and split it casually. With a clicking sound, the epee split into two single-handed swords, one long and one short.

They closed together like magic and transformed into the strange shape of the Elf Sword again.

"This is your ninth attempt this week."

The pirate looked at Fenner who looked disappointed and said:

"It's time for you to recognize reality. If you can't break it off, it doesn't mean you're a failure. It's just a weapon. I never use weapons to define myself.

If you want a war sword that can be opened and closed as a toy, I can give you some news. "

He looked around and whispered in Fenner's ear:

"There is more than one divine sword in this world, Salameni. As long as you can overcome your hatred of trolls in your heart, I know that there is also a troll sword hidden somewhere.

It has the same characteristics as Salameni, and can be separated into two one-handed swords, or combined into one two-handed sword.

However, its power is much weaker than Salamani, but it is still a very good weapon and is suitable for self-defense. "

"Oh, really?"

Fenner, who looked troubled just now, suddenly became interested.

As Blake said, Fenna actually didn't really want Salamaini.

She also has a fragment of the elven holy sword Quel'Sera in her hand, which only needs to be reshaped to become a weapon most suitable for elves.

What really made her feel unhappy was why Blake could tame Salamaini but she couldn't.

After all, I still don't want to lose to my stinky brother.

If my brother has it, I want it too!

It’s this strange “comparison mentality” I’m talking about.

"Really, that troll sword is called 'Susas', which means 'The Flagellant' in the ancient troll language. It is a sacred object of the Sandfury Trolls, hidden in their ancient city Zul'Farrak inside.

It was held by the ancestral warriors of the Sandfury Trolls, who slaughtered countless ugly and evil bug-men and created their own legend.

It is a pity that the descendants were unfilial and could not uphold the honor of their ancestors. In the internal struggle for power, an ancient spell was used to divide Susus into two parts.

Gasas the protector, and Sansas the counterattacker.

A sword of protection, a sword of destruction. "

Blake sat on the side of the boat and said to Fenna, who was sitting next to him and blowing the sea breeze, listening with her ears raised:

"The two swords are now said to have been lost for nearly a thousand years, but I know that two cunning Sandfury troll clans hid them.

If you really want, let's go over there sometime.

But that troll sword is evil.

It has the power of a voodoo curse, so think before you chase them, and the Sandfury Trolls will never allow you to take away their divine sword.

There is only one way to get it. "

"Don't think about it!"

Fenna waved her fist and said carelessly:

"I want it. I can get the legendary sword and kill trolls at the same time. It's a win-win situation! When I reforge Quel'Sera, I will go there for a walk.

When I get the Troll Sword, I can really compete with you in skill. "

"Okay, as long as you're happy, but I think there's something wrong with your understanding of the word 'win-win'."

Blake shrugged, glanced at Fenner, who was in high spirits and full of fighting spirit, and said to himself that the happiness of a warrior is simplicity.

He handed the wine bottle to Fenner and said with emotion:

"You really refuse to admit defeat."

"No one in the Proudmoore family will admit defeat!"

Fenner took a sip of wine and replied. Then she realized her slip of the tongue and immediately changed her words:

"I mean, no one in the Jinjian family will admit defeat! Why are you laughing? Do you deserve a beating?"

"Nothing, nothing."

Blake waved his hand, looking like he couldn't afford to offend you, and said:

"I just remembered something fun. Look! We are about to arrive near Tol Barad, and the speed of the Nagfar is getting faster and faster.

After it completes this strengthening, it is estimated that it will only take about twenty days to cross the entire Endless Sea. "

"Children, what are you talking about?"

Lady Catherine's voice sounded behind the two of them. Blake and Fenner turned around and saw the "newly joined" Queen Lady walking over accompanied by Sephiel.

She no longer wears the queen's cumbersome attire, but instead wears a dashing lady's hunting suit. Her hair, which is always tied up, is loosened and draped over her shoulders, but it does not destroy her innate grace and nobility.

"Mother."

"lady."

Blake and Fenner said hello to Lady Catherine, who nodded, then looked at Fenner and said:

"You should call me 'Mom' or 'Mother'."

"Oh, I can't open my mouth."

Fenner lowered her head and said:

"Give me some more time, this is too sudden."

"This is the first time I've seen an irritable and shy elf like you. I'm curious about how Gina raised you? Why do you have such a strange personality?"

Lady Catherine chuckled lightly, took Fenner's hand and put it in the crook of her hand. Fenner did not resist this intimate gesture.

"Mother, it's windy at night, you should rest in the cabin."

Blake was actually a little embarrassed. Although he had accepted Lady Catherine's existence after so many days of running-in, he still felt a little awkward in his heart.

"I've had enough rest along the way. Your ship is much more comfortable than any other I've seen."

Lady Catherine shook her head and said to Blake:

"And I'm coming to your city soon. I have to cheer up. I can't embarrass my son."

"Don't worry, madam, no one dares to gossip about you."

Sephiel whispered to Catherine:

"Anyone who dares to speak ill of you will be thrown into the arena as cannon fodder, and then their bodies will be thrown to the sea giants for dinner. All your administrative measures on the island will be perfectly promoted.

I promise. "

"But mother, you cannot rule the pirates under my command the same way you rule the navy."

Blake reminded in a low voice:

“They are all a group of scum in the name of ‘freedom’. They follow power and hate control. Coercive demands often lead to chaos due to drunkenness.

In fact, in my design, the best future for Tol Barad is to form a 'pirate nation' and form a pirate council or something to manage it.

Only set basic rules and let them develop the rest and let them rule themselves. "

"I understand, son, do you regard your mother as a mediocre person who only follows the rules?"

Lady Catherine glared at her son.

she says:

"The pirates who know best on the sea, besides themselves, are the Kul Tiran navy. The Kul Tirans have been dealing with pirates since the days of your great-grandfather and even before. .

Their character, their pursuits, their desires, and their evilness are all clear to me.

I won't run a city with the administrative experience of Kul Tiras, Black, I will adapt to local conditions. I will make your pirate country as prosperous as Booty Bay and provide you with a steady stream of funds.

I heard that there is a magic academy for elves on your island?

After landing, I want to visit there first. "

"Of course, as you wish."

Blake was relieved when he heard Catherine's arrangement.

His mother was indeed a powerful person, and she had captured the strongest members of various forces in Tol Barad in one fell swoop.

If she can get the support of Dean Blue Moon, even if Black does not give her any support, Lady Catherine can gather the power of Tol Barad into her own hands in a very short period of time.

Thinking of this, the pirate hesitated.

He took out six rings with different faces and coats of arms from his arms and handed them to his mother. Facing Lady Catherine's curious eyes, the pirate said softly:

"This is the seal of communication for the six forces I have installed in the Eastern Continent, the Broken Islands and the Human Kingdom. I call them 'Albatross'. They are my personal subordinates and my sources of intelligence.

It is also my trump card buried in various key areas.

Through their cooperation, I can activate several wars within a week and profoundly affect regional politics. This is part of my core strength.

Now, they are yours to use, Mother. "

"You just believe me?"

Lady Catherine did not reach out to pick up the six seals. On the sea at night, she said to Blake in a very candid way:

"I know you have doubts in your heart, child. You don't have to use this method to test me. Your tactics are too straightforward."

"No, I'm not testing."

Blake said seriously:

"Since I invite you to be my pirate governor, it means that I already trust you, mother. I also know very well why you want to stay on my ship at this moment. This is a tacit secret between our mother and son.

I never test people's hearts. I only believe in cooperation for common interests.

It's not good for you to mess up my territory. Besides, I'm your child, and I believe your desire to protect me is genuine.

I can feel.

So take it, Mother.

I really need a master of tactics to take charge of the intelligence system for me. Frankly speaking, the captains under my command can do a lot, but there are almost no talents who can take over this important task.

Both of my mentors also hated the intrigue and power play of their jobs.

If Shore were willing to come to my place, I would absolutely leave these things to him to run. But he is Varian's loyal servant, and I cannot ask him to choose between loyalty and brotherhood.

I'm not that stupid. "

Faced with her son's frankness, Lady Catherine blinked. Under the gazes of Fenner and Sephiel, the new pirate governor raised his fingers and put the six seals on his hands one by one.

Including her and Dai Lin's wedding rings, there are seven rings.

"These two are also for your self-defense, mother. I don't need them anymore."

Blake took off the gold and silver magic ring from his finger and put it on his mother's hand. He looked at Lady Catherine's free finger, rubbed his chin and said:

"This set of 'Supreme Lord of the Rings' magic ring is still missing the last one. I'll ask my chief fisherman to work harder another day and catch the Five Supreme Rings as well, so that we can all survive."

"Are you going to dress your poor mother up as a ring merchant?"

Lady Catherine said dumbfounded:

"Why do I need so many rings?"

"This can be your new identity."

Black glanced back in the direction of Tol Barad and said:

"You need a powerful name to suppress those rebellious and stinky pirates, so why not call her 'Ring Lady'? Being cool is the best way to pretend to be a ghost.

My Lord Governor. "
