Abidis was unaware of the great battle taking place on the coast of Silithus.

At this moment, he was commanding his army to land at Valsharah.

However, his landing location was no longer the area between Highmountain and Val'sharah that he had originally agreed upon with Tyrande.

Instead, it became the Twilight Reef of Valsharah.

However, his real target was not Twilight Reef, but the former Night Elf fortress across the bay, Black Rook Fortress.

After the War of the Ancients, because the Broken Isles had separated from the mainland, Black Rook Hold, a fortress that had resisted the Burning Legion for a long time, lost its strategic importance and was abandoned due to the fel energy that emanated from it and the countless lingering spirits within.

The last member of its owner, the Ravencrest family, was imprisoned in the Watchers' jail, just like Illidan, for becoming a demon hunter.

However, in Abidis's view, in the early stages of the landing, there was no better place to settle down than here, which was both good for offense and defense and had a large area.

“Ben, Mr. Xu, it’s all up to you now. I’ll get everyone to cooperate with you!” Abidis said to Ben and Xu Wenwu, who were standing beside him, as he stood in front of the gate of Black Raven Fortress.

While Abidis's forces could manage to clear out the monsters entrenched in this fortress, it would obviously be a very troublesome task.

However, with the group of powerful individuals sent by Josie, things are much easier now.

Ben and Xu Wenwu didn't waste any words. Each of them led a Vrykul elite force to begin sweeping through the entire castle.

"Lord Abidis, we've discovered some Night Elf scouts. They've been dealt with; none of them escaped. However, the Temple of the Moon will likely discover the anomaly here soon!" Loki appeared beside Abidis as he prepared to lead his men inside.

Although Black Rook Hold has been abandoned, the original Temple of Elune of the Night Elves is not very far away. In addition, due to the chaotic situation in the Broken Isles, there are a large number of Night Elf scouts in various areas of Val'sharah.

Abidis's massive landing could not possibly be concealed.

“Master Gu Yi already gave instructions on this matter; just leave it to Lady Shadow!” However, Abidis was not worried about this issue. Instead, he looked at Lady Shadow, who was sitting cross-legged and floating in mid-air.

Chapter 355 Awakening Sartre

"It's nothing. The brainwashing of those night elves is complete. With their help, I believe it will be easy to find those hidden satyrs. Also, Talonnicus has gone to Suramar... At that time, hehe~" A hoarse female voice came from beneath the Shadow Lady's red robe.

What she was referring to was the planned second step of the strategy.

The satyrs, imprisoned by the druids, and the night elves of Suramar launched an attack on the night elves.

Satyrs are elves who were corrupted by demons during the War of the Ancients.

And Xavius, the elf whose status was once second only to Azshara, was the first satyr and also the god of all satyrs in later generations!

Although at the end of the War of the Ancients, Xavius ​​was suppressed by a tree formed from an arrow shot by Shandris Feathermoon from Malfurion, and fell into the sea.

However, this king of satyrs did not die as a result.

Instead, after being trapped for thousands of years, with the help of N'Zoth, the most hidden Old God, he became the Nightmare King and successfully invaded the Emerald Dream, creating the Emerald Nightmare, which continues to erode the Emerald Dream.

However, contacting this Nightmare King was not easy, especially with the Burning Legion not launching a second invasion and the Satyr race remaining in hiding.

Even if Josie knew of Sartre's existence, it would be difficult for her to give Abidis much information.

However, there is indeed a group of satyrs in Valsharah.

These satyrs were confidants of Xavius ​​and prisoners of the druids during the War of the Ancients.

Under normal circumstances, these guys would be justifiably executed.

Malfurion and some of the druids shared this view.

However, this proposal was opposed by many druids in the Cenarion Circle at the time—because these corrupt satyrs were friends and relatives of the night elves, and although they hated these guys, they couldn't bear to kill them.

And so, these satyrs were placed to rest beneath the roots of Saladhas, the first World Tree in Val'sharah…

It has to be said that, in the eyes of Josie and Abidis, the actions of these druids were quite baffling...

But this is a good thing for Abidis now.

If these satyrs are released and then contacted, the Nightmare King, then all the night elves in Val'sharah will be doomed.

As for whether Abidis will suffer a backlash from the Nightmare King, there is absolutely no need to worry.

Ancient One has already defeated C'Thun, so why would he be afraid of Xavius, who is just N'Zoth's henchman?

Despite being the last Old God to appear in Azeroth, N'Zoth is actually the weakest of all the Old Gods...

So when Xavius ​​cornered the Night Elves, it was also the time when the Ancient One would take action against the Nightmare King and N'Zoth behind him.

In comparison, Surama is actually the toughest nut to crack!

“In that case, I’ll leave it to you, Your Excellency!” Abidis nodded to Lady Shadow.

Lady Shadow bowed slightly in return, then led the brainwashed night elves who had landed with her on the journey.

However, Maiev was not among the night elves who set off. The reason was simple: not long after she was captured, she was traded to Josie by Abidis.

Accompanying them was an envoy composed of humans under Abidis's command, with Braesta, one of the Four Divine Warriors, also among them.

Besides that, there was a minotaur delegation led by Baine Bloodhoof.

Although Abidis had his own ulterior motives.

However, the story of helping the Minotaur find their relatives and winning over the Minotaur tribe of the High Ridge is not false.

After half a day's march, this mixed force quickly arrived at the vicinity of the Temple of the Moon.

The night elves in the group, who had been brainwashed, sent out a signal based on their own memories.

Soon, night elf scouts appeared in the nearby jungle.

"Who are you people?" the captain of the night elf scouts asked warily, looking at the motley crew.

“I am Natasha. We were sent by Her Highness Tyrande and Commander Maiev to help these tauren reach Highmountain. I believe the high priest in the temple has already received the message!” A female night elf from Lady Shadow’s party stepped forward and presented the token.

Natasha is Maiev's second-in-command (the Huntress in the Warcraft 3 campaign) and also her most trusted subordinate.

She can be said to be the highest-ranking Night Elf besides Maiev among those who followed Abidis's fleet.

“I know you, but as far as I know, you landed in the northern border region, not the south, and your leader should be Lord Shadowsong!” The night elf scout captain was surprised to hear Natasha’s words, but quickly raised a question.

“We were attacked by the Naga during our voyage. The human fleet was severely damaged, so we had to change course and land at Twilight Reef in the south. Lady Maiev also went to Watchtower to dispatch reinforcements, so she entrusted the token to me. I will lead this group of humans and tauren to Highmountain. Of course, to be on the safe side, Lady Maiev ordered that a scout team be sent to ‘escort’ them!” Natasha whispered to the night elf captain.

Although the current capital of the Night Elves is Mount Hyjal.

However, the three major factions of the Night Elves—the Sentinels (Sisters of Elune), the Druids, and the Wardens—are actually based in the Broken Isles, not in Kalimdor.

These are the Primal Temple of the Moon, where they are currently located; the World Tree Saladashir; and the Watcher Bandits in southern Azsuna.

After all, before the continent of Azeroth was shattered, the Broken Isles were the heartland of the entire elven race.

Therefore, Natasha's reasoning can be considered very reasonable.

This is one of the reasons why Maiev would put aside some of her work and follow Abidis's fleet to the Broken Isles—this was their base of operations.

Moreover, Natasha was not worried at all about her lies being exposed.

Compared to the other two factions, the Watchers are inherently more independent. Apart from Maiev, the highest leader of the Watchers, she is the one who has the most contact with the other two factions.

Therefore, the main priests of Val'sharah's Temple of the Moon all knew her, and in Maiev's absence, they generally did not suspect her.

“I understand, but I need to report the situation here to the priest first!” The scout captain hesitated for a moment before answering Natasha’s explanation.

“Of course!” Natasha nodded.

The scout captain then ordered his men to keep an eye on Lady Shadow and her party, while he went back to report on the situation.

However, she left quickly and returned quickly.

They returned in just about half an hour, bringing with them orders from the priests of the Temple of the Moon in Val'sharah, allowing Lady Shadow and her party to pass through the Temple of the Moon and the night elf town of Andutarra under the supervision of night elf scouts, on their way to Highmountain.

Under the watchful eyes of the night elf scouts, Lady Shadow and her party seemed to have passed through the night elf territory "unharmed," except for gazing at the World Tree Saladashir in the distance when passing Andutarra and uttering some sighs.

However, the night elves, led by Natasha, did not follow them to Highmountain. Instead, after sending Lady Shadow and her party to the border of Val'sharah, they returned to Andutarra with the night elves there.

According to Natasha's account to the night elves here, their mission was simply to escort these humans and tauren to the Highmountain region, and then, once they returned, to escort them back the same way they came.

The night elf guards here had no suspicion of Natasha and her fellow race.

At this time, although the night elves were very wary and resistant to outsiders, they were extremely distrustful of their own people.

In particular, Natasha was Maiev's trusted lieutenant, and many high-ranking Night Elf officials stationed in Val'sharah were very familiar with her.

Thus, under Natasha's leadership, these night elves, who had actually been brainwashed by the Shadow Lady, were able to move freely in Val'sharah and effortlessly enter the town of Sharaniel under the Shala Dassil tree.

“This is Saladashir. The satyrs are buried in the Salaniel Cave behind the town. It’s easy for us to get to the outer edge of the cave, but we can’t get into the cave without the High Druid’s order!” Under the tree, Natasha pretended to pray to Saladashir, but in reality she was talking to her shadow—or rather, the Shadow Lady hidden in her shadow.

"That's nothing. Just take me nearby and explain the druid guards there! As long as the shadows are on guard, there's nothing I can't get in!" Natasha's shadow soon revealed the Shadow Lady's hoarse voice.

The reason why Lady Shadow is called "Shadow" is largely because she is extremely skilled at manipulating shadows.

Moreover, while her strength may not be comparable to the Ancient One, it is certainly not necessarily on par with Malfurion.

“I understand!” Natasha replied softly.

So he got up and walked toward the location of the Shalanil Cave.

"This is forbidden territory, my sister. Without the High Druid's orders, please return!" Sure enough, just as Natasha approached the cave's vicinity, a giant bear emerged from the jungle and politely reminded her.

“Excuse me, I just wanted to wander around and admire the great mother tree, but I seem to be a little lost. Could you take me back to town, Your Excellency Druid?” Natasha replied, feigning panic.

“Oh, of course, little girl, come with me!” Upon hearing Natasha’s words, the druid nodded.

He didn't recognize Natasha. Because of the immortality of the night elves, it was difficult to determine their age, so the druid assumed she was just a local girl who wasn't familiar with the place. Over the years, the druid had encountered many similar situations to Natasha, so he didn't pay any attention and enthusiastically led the way for her. Although he was a guard of Shalanil Caves, he was on the outer perimeter, and leaving for a while wouldn't affect the overall situation.
