Azeroth Shadow Trail

   Chapter 631 184. Ding! An en route naval strike has been detected!

  The coast outside Nanhai Town under the night is exceptionally quiet, and it is an excellent place for fishing. However, the situation is special tonight. As the portal quietly opened here, the old lich Merry Winterwind slowly walked out of it.

   He was also accompanied by the hurrying little Jaina, who walked out of the portal and looked left and right, and soon found Blake sitting by the sea.

  The smelly pirate took off his hunting boots and was soaking his feet in the sea water. In the water not far from him, the little murloc was sitting on his "undersea beast" ghost-footed crab, beating a group of local murlocs with his teeth and claws.

   "Mr. Black, are you leaving?"

   Jaina ran over, raised her head and asked a question, with a hint of reluctance in her tone, but facing her question, the pirate looked up at the moonlight above his head melancholy, and said:

   "Running around is the fate of people like me. I have been on land for too long, and the sea is calling me. If I don't go back, my body will shed skin because of dryness.

   It would be too ugly by then. "

   "Mr. Black is a real joke, and you're not a fish."

  Jaina was amused, she looked at the pirates, and said eagerly:

   "Then will you come back?"

   "I can't hide my eyes."

  Black looked down at Jaina, he pouted and said:

   "It was me who was asking, but it was your brother who was actually asking, right? Do you have something for me to bring to him? Maybe write another letter?"

   "I've already written it, just ask Mr. Black to bring it to my brother."

  The little mage took out a letter from his luggage, handed it to Black, took out a few gold coins and handed it to him, saying:

   "This is the cost of the delivery.

  I know you won't help others in vain, but I praised you to my brother in the letter, praised you as a real warrior, and I ask my brother to reward you. "

   "cough cough"

  Blake, who was twisting the lid of the jug to drink, was choked by Jaina's words, coughing repeatedly, and the old lich next to him also showed a faint smile.

   "Okay, I'll give him the letter and look forward to the reward your generous brother will give me."

   Black said in an odd tone:

  "In addition, Ravenhold is gone, don't use their channel to send letters in the future, I will teach you a more convenient 'post' channel.

  Don't throw away the **** in Tirisfal Castle, collect it and put it in the basement, and put it in a nice pile so that it doesn't stink.

  When you need to deliver a letter, put this thing in front of the garbage heap, and then call the old Ghani, the **** of secret covenants for pirates. "

He handed an old Gani statue made by himself to Jaina, and the little mage took it in his hand and looked at it. This ugly and charming little statue vividly depicted the old Gani's thief eyes. Shaking his head.

   "It's so ugly."

   Jaina laughed and said:

   "Ugly and cute, I feel like I'll be friends with it."

   "That's a possibility."

  The pirate shrugged and asked:

   "It depends on whether you like trash or not.

   Okay, let’s say goodbye here.

  Your brother's reply may soon be in your hands. But I know he's been concerned about your growth and safety, so I hope you'll follow old Merry to learn magic.

   If you learn in the letter that your magic skills are fast and powerful, I believe that your brother will be very happy. "

"Uh-huh."

  The little mage nodded, and when she left, she turned back and blinked, and said to Black:

   "That. Mr. Black, I may be going back to Kul Tiras in more than a month. My brother's good friend Lord Arthur Waycrest is getting married soon, and as a princess, I must attend.

   I mean, if my brother has time, even if he can't show up, maybe he can take a look at the scene from a distance. You are so powerful, and my brother must be very powerful now, which should not be difficult for him. "

   "No, it's just that I'm good, your brother is a waste."

   Black said with seriousness:

   "He will only tell us to do this and that, like a prince in trouble. To be honest, if I hadn't owed him a big favor, I would have quit the job long ago.

  I believe that when you meet him, you will be very disappointed. "

   "Don't say that to my brother!"

  Jaina said coldly with her eyebrows raised:

   "My brother must be a great hero who silently fights evil in the dark."

   "Yes, yes, you are right, Your Royal Highness, please forgive the rudeness of a brutish pirate. Your brother is a real hero, and the whole world will worship him."

  Black said something perfunctory, and then sent the little mage away, then looked at Merry Winterwind who was silent beside him, and said:

   "Zach Yao pointed to that, thank you."

"nothing."

   The old lich shook his head and said:

   "Just a poor scapegoat, his life or death doesn't affect the overall situation. I'm here to say goodbye to you too, Blake.

  I originally planned to take my disciples to investigate the troll gods, but the sudden situation in Dalaran prevented me from leaving for a short time.

  The dragon blood spilled by Deathwing did not dissipate over time. On the contrary, we were cleaning up the giant pit these days, and many mages were attacked by corrupted flesh.

   The concentration of void power in the Tirisfal region is rapidly rising, and we are destined to take a long time to clear it. It is also fortunate that we removed the terrible darkness under the earth in advance, otherwise I would not have imagined the result of the confluence of two Void sins. "

   "What about the trolls? Hakkar the Soul Reaver doesn't care?"

  The pirate raised his eyebrows and asked:

   "Once that guy comes to the material world, it will cause no less trouble than the Dalaran incident. Although the Gurubashi trolls are also down, their current situation is much better than the Amani trolls.

   Once Hakkar re-establishes his army of fallen trolls, Stormwind Kingdom is the first to be threatened. "

   "The church took over this matter."

   The old lich said calmly:

   "The Council of Tirisfal and the Church have decided to cooperate.

   Although Pope Fao is bedridden, he is not yet to the point where he cannot act. He has sent a strong team led by two great knights, and I will send Khadgar to represent the Council of Tirisfal.

   King Varian Wrynn also promised that Stormwind Kingdom will send a jungle army to assist us in entering Stranglethorn Vale, and the three parties will work together to track down the traces of the 'Soul Reaver'. "

"good."

  The pirate nodded, put on the posture of a magician, and said:

   "In this way, the visible threat to the eastern continent may be temporarily subsided, but after these events, you should probably set your sights a little further.

   I mean, it's not just the Eastern Continent that needs you in this world.

   Servants of the Void are literally everywhere.

   They are terrible cancers just waiting to be cleaned up by you. With the ravages of Deathwing ahead, those abyss walkers who are ready to move may also enter an active period.

   In addition to them, there are threats from demons.

  When I first saw you, I told you that this world is just pretending to be peace, and now I have proved my point with facts, this is a broken house with leaks everywhere.

   And you are its paper-makers. "

  The old Lich did not refute this statement. After seeing Deathwing and the Defiler with his own eyes, Merry had accepted the "future prophecy" of the pirates.

   But he didn't feel panicked or depressed.

   The reason is simple, if they can survive the ravages of Deathwing and the Defiler, there are very few things in this world that can defeat them.

   Although the future is tortuous, there is also a ray of light hidden.

   "Where are you going next?"

   he asked.

  Black didn't answer, just glanced at Jaina who was playing with the little murlocs, and the old lich nodded, indicating that he knew.

   He warned:

   "Don't make too much noise, don't be the same as this time. There is an endless sea between here and there, and it's too late for us to support."

   "Don't worry, this time it was the right time for multiple forces to meet. I didn't expect the worst-case scenario that I had expected before to happen one after another, almost out of control."

  The pirate reached out and picked up his hunting boots and put them on his feet. He got up from the rocks by the sea and said:

   "Next time I'll be more cautious. Sigh, it's like my weird thinking before, the more you play tricks and make plans, the more you can feel that there are always limits as a human being.

   But fortunately, I have already connected with a 'big man', maybe I can be a human soon. "

   Black laughed.

   He whistled, and in the sky and night there was a loyal hippogryph flapping its wings and descending from the sky, dancing around Black a few times and hitting the pirate's arm with its antlers, with a touch of intimacy.

   "Go away, little idiot."

  The pirate turned over and mounted the Hippogryph, shouted to the little murloc who was dancing and playing in Jaina, and the Bumblebee croaked twice, and also boarded his "royal seat".

   It climbed onto the saddle of the Ghostfoot Crab, waved goodbye to Jaina, and before leaving, took a troll voodoo ornament from its belt and threw it to Jaina.

   This is rare, especially for this miserly murloc.

   It can share its own toys with others. It seems that it really likes Jaina, probably because the daughter of the sea is born to maintain a good friendship with these sea creatures.

   "Goodbye! Mr. Black! When I become a High Mage, I will find you!"

  When Black took off on the Hippogryph and the murloc disappeared into the sea with the Ghostfoot Crab, Jaina stood beside Merry Winterwind, put her hands to her mouth, and shouted to the sky.

  Under the moonlight, the Hippogryph flapped its wings and headed towards the deep sea. The pirate, swept by the moonlight, waved his hand, shook his head without looking back, and quickly disappeared into the mist above the sea at night.

   After watching the pirates disappear, the smiling Jaina fell silent. She looked up at her mentor and said softly:

   "Teacher, Mr. Black, that's my brother, right?

  Although he didn't act like Drake at all, but just now. Just now, when he was talking to me, I really had the feeling that I used to chat with Drake. "

   "Huh? Why do you think so?"

  Merry asked calmly:

   "Do you think your brother, a prince in distress who escaped death, a soldier from Kul Tiras, a navy who hated pirates, would go crazy and choose to become a pirate after he survived?

   Or, do you think he, who almost died at the hands of the orcs, would choose to cooperate with the orcs after escaping?

   Think with your superhuman wisdom.

  Jaina, we are spellcasters, and any judgment we make must be based on facts and truth, not on emotional thinking.

  Relying on feeling to do things will kill people. "

   "Well, that's true, no matter how you think about it, it's not logical."

   The little mage shrugged, stroking the hail long sword around her waist, and said:

   "Probably, Mr. Black has had too much contact with his brother, so he also has a little brother's habit. Speaking of which, mentor, after I go back for a while, I will try to summon the water element.

  I learned a magical magic from Mr. Black, I'm going to improve the Kirin Tor's elemental summoning, can you help me? "

"sure."

The    old lich showed a frosty smile, accompanied his apprentice back to the portal, and the moment he disappeared, he looked back at the empty night sky behind him.

  Damn it, I almost showed my stuff!

  You Blake, can you maintain your pirate character?

   Look at your poor acting skills!

   was almost discovered by a little girl.

—

   "cough cough"

   The smelly pirate who had just returned to the Nagfar suddenly coughed a few times. He touched his throat uncomfortably and said to Sefir beside him:

   "You must have been lazy and didn't take good care of my boat. I just saw that its ram was broken, but it was a keel ram! How could it be broken?

  You give me an explanation! "

   "That's the Nagfar being 'refreshed,' Captain idiot."

   Pirate Dragon Chief Officer folded his arms and said dissatisfiedly:

   "You know you're running around outside every day, and you don't care about your home at all. Your ship 'eats' a piece of Deathwing's Elementium carapace, which will seem a little indigestion.

  The old ram shattered, but the new one never grew. Just like our dragon changing teeth, it is very uncomfortable now and may need you to comfort it. "

   "Huh? Is there such a thing?"

  Blake blinked with round eyes, then whistled, took out a perfect soul crystal from his arms and threw it up and down, saying:

   "I've brought real goodies to my baby boat, she'll love it, go, let's go see her."

The captain    intends to enter the cabin and let the ghost ship sink into the sea and sneak out of the eastern continent.

   But just a few seconds later, Black's baby crow screamed and flew into the cabin from outside the night and landed on the pirate's shoulder, screaming anxiously, trying to convey some important information to the smelly pirate.

   "Don't worry, let me take a look at the Covenant of Nature."

  Black held down the restless little crow's head and activated the covenant of nature to "communicate" with the crow. Miss Hisari Black Crow would like to scratch the stinky pirate's face with one claws.

   Every time she uses Animal Covenant, she has to mobilize her animal nature to disguise, which is very uncomfortable.

   But now, because of the anxious situation, I can’t manage that much anymore.

   In the next second, what the baby crow saw came into Blake's eyes, causing the stinky pirate to narrow his eyes instantly.

   "The advance fleet of Gilneas is deployed in the waters of Khaz Modan, they are laying mines, and it seems that they will contain the Naglfar and return to Tol Barad.

  My ship is being targeted.

   Immediately investigate the cause! "

  Black looked back at the pirate dragon who was also surprised, and said in a cold tone:

   "Summon old Gani to send a letter to Tol Barad, and let my captains drive all the ships out! Then let all the **** resting in the cabin get up for me to prepare for battle!

  The Gilnean people don't want to live anymore.

very good.

   Let's send them to hell! "
