Shadow Trails in Azeroth

"Dang, Dang, Dang"

The piercing tolling of bells echoed throughout the fortresses and Kyrian homes of Ascension Bastion, and urgent alarms announced the approaching danger.

As the Kyrian Ascendants and Candidates continued to gather and receive weapons, more details were announced to the warriors of this gorgeous land.

Maldraxxus, the war nation that was supposed to protect the Shadow Kingdom and resist all foreign enemies, gave up their great duty. Those butchers who had been addicted to dirty desires in the fight all year round slashed their butcher knives at the Ascension Fortress. The beasts of the courtyard are besieging the Temple of Courage.

The mighty Lady of Courage Saint Alexandria and her followers are in desperate need of help.

The Kyrian warriors who heard all this were extremely angry. This anger not only came from the shame of their homeland being trampled by the invasion of foreign enemies, but also from the contempt for the warriors of Maldraxxus who abandoned their duties.

On the land of Ascension Bastion, every soul has a role to play.

Only souls who have continuously dedicated themselves to this land are qualified to embark on the road to promotion. The Kyrians value their responsibilities as much as their own lives. In their view, Maldraxxus's corruption is simply shocking.

Now, this group of degenerates are trying to taint their filth on the land of Ascension Bastion. This is completely unforgivable.

With such a common enemy, the first batch of reinforcements quickly set off from the temples of other saints. The blue angels with strong wings wore gorgeous armor and held sacred blades to form a column. Under the leadership of their respective heroes, He flew down and over the earth and sky that were no longer peaceful.

They will encounter the air cavalry released by Maldraxxus halfway, face the gloomy two-headed snake-like winged beast and the terrifying and cruel psychic roc that is completely sewn up with various corpses. Despite their fierce obstruction, the Kylian Angels launched a fierce battle with these guys without fear.

In the Shadowlands, the sky is always Kyrian's domain.

Their sacred wings make them unrivaled in the sky battlefield, and only the Stone Legion, who can also fly, can match their aerial combat skills.

Maldraxxus' undead air force could not stop the Kyrian reinforcements' raid. Nearly 30 minutes after the war began, reinforcements arrived from all directions and began to besiege Maldraxxus' floating city in an attempt to buy time for the Temple of Courage.

However, these heroic reinforcements soon discovered that their arrival had no effect.

Because Saint Alexandria of Courage and her Hands of Courage have completely fallen into the trap of the Maldraxxians, they have become bait to attract more prey.

Those war madmen have completely occupied the Temple of Courage. The only reason they haven't killed Saint Courage yet is that keeping this noble soul can bring them more Kylians who fall into the trap.

After the first batch of reinforcements arrived, this group of mad undead decisively used exterminating plague weapons to block the surrounding sky.

It is indeed not their territory, but the Maldraxxians have long been accustomed to launching attacks on the enemy's battlefield and are very good at turning the enemy's advantages into their own traps.

Under the coercion of the plague that spread everywhere, the Gryen angels who came to rescue but were trapped were forced to land on the top of the temple where Sandelia had previously stood. They had to activate the last batch of sealed weapons in the temple. Goliath came to help them defend their position.

This is a kind of machine warrior powered by telekinesis.

They have their own thinking circuit, are brute force, tireless, and loyal. They are a very important part of the promotion fortress war system. It is precisely because the Goliath giant was activated in time that this temple can be built in Maldraxxa. They saved the last glimmer of hope under the crazy attack of the Sri Lankan people.

Hope is like a flame.

Just a little burning in the dark will attract more moths to the flame, but not too much or it will just scare those moths away.

"There are thousands of reinforcements in this batch, and they are all the most elite Kylian warriors. The Academy of Creation has reported to us that after eating this batch of 'raw materials', including the corpses collected by the Temple of Courage, it will be enough to replenish it. The losses of the previous construct army, and can provide us with a batch of higher quality Abomination Breakers in a month."

In the floating city of the Soul Chosen Chamber, in the hall that serves as the temporary headquarters, Baroness Draka is reporting to Grom Hellscream, the initiator of this war and the current leader of the five major chambers of Maldraxxus. with the progress of the war.

This female warrior who came to the Soul Selection Academy from the Sharp Eyes Academy and was appointed as a baron said simply:

"The Ritual Academy has begun to draw hearts from the center of the Temple of Courage to replenish the energy reserves of the floating city. The spies of the Sharp Eyes Academy have taken advantage of the chaos in the major temples to infiltrate their holy places.

It is estimated that by this evening at the latest, the first phase of the combat objectives will be achieved, and the Temple of Courage will become our first enemy fortress in the Ascension Fortress.

Marquis Fenna Golden Sword has invited herself to stay here and take charge.

She has personally captured Saint Alexandria of Courage, and is trying to break her mind and turn her into her servant.

And based on what I witnessed, I can also confirm that Loyal St. Jedworth has fallen into the hands of Lord Black Shaw. In other words, in less than two hours since the start of the current war, the Ascension Fortress has been lost. Two Saints"

At this point, even Baroness Draka, who was optimistic about the war situation before the war started, was a little unbelievable. She hesitated for a few seconds and whispered to the silent Grom Hellscream:

"I feel like I'm dreaming, Your Majesty the Marquis, are the Maldraxxians too strong? Or is the Ascension Bastion too weak? Why didn't even the elite army be used, and just let the second-line army do its job? I Does it feel like we’re on the verge of total victory?”

"This is normal, Draka. Ascension Bastion has never relied on the spears and wings of the Kyrians to stand in the Shadow Kingdom."

Lao Hou stared at the large map of the Ascension Fortress provided by the Sharp Eyes Academy.

Like a warlord strategizing on the battlefield, he thought for several seconds before speaking:

"The real killer weapons of Ascension Fortress are those Hundred Hearts Machines. Their army of mechanical creations has not yet been activated. Our victory is negligible, and the situation has not yet reached a real turning point.

But now that Loyal St. Jedworth has been captured by the magical Black, our next combat target is naturally the Loyal Fortress managed and ruled by her.

The House of Creation has proven itself powerful, and now it is time for the other Houses to show their dominance. I have decided to give Kargath Bladefist the task of attacking the Loyal Bastion.

Tell him for me, Draka. "

Grom raised his head and said to his Baroness:

"The Maldraxxians are waiting for a clean victory. This is also his responsibility as the Marquis of Sharp Eyes. If he can't do it, then he should abdicate as soon as possible and make way for someone better!"

"yes!"

Draka responded with a standard warrior salute.

But when she turned around and walked out of the command hall, she hesitated, then turned back and asked:

"War Overlord, I have a little question. Regarding the goal of this war, should we destroy the Ascension Fortress? Or should we?"

"The Kyrians of this land are part of the foundation of the order of the Shadow Kingdom, and the eldest daughter Gristia is the core of the existence of the Ascension Fortress. We will not destroy this place, and we will not kill the eldest daughter.

What will happen to this land in the future has nothing to do with us. "

Laohou didn't even raise his head, and explained in a calm tone:

"We have one and only one goal. Before the start of the 'Eternal War', we should strengthen the fighting power of the Maldraxxians as much as possible. Draka, you still remember that at the clan meeting in the Nagrand Grassland, whenever A 'warm-up hunt' before the grand safari festival?"

"Of course, who can forget something like that? Durotan and I met during hunting like that."

Draka understood, and the Baroness said thoughtfully:

"So, the battle of Ascension Bastion is just a warm-up battle for a larger war? I understand!"

——

"The Queen of Winter has joined our camp. She is working with Ms. Elune to rebuild the rules of the cycle of life and death. It will be cooperation across the six fields of the Force. It can ensure that the imbalance of the Force will not easily occur in the next era. scene.

Of course, we also have responsibilities that we need to shoulder.

I have arranged everything. Perhaps the final battle will be revealed in the next half month. I have arranged a unique 'farewell' ceremony for the emperor and the warden.

I can guarantee that nothing will go wrong.

But in order to avoid unexpected surprises, I still hope that you and your compatriots can join in. "

In the command hall of the Academy of Creation, Blake spoke in a relaxed tone with the "guest" standing in front of him. The latter wore a mysterious hood and said nothing. When Blake spoke, he always made a sideways expression. The act of listening.

The entire command hall was quiet. The loyal little fish man was standing outside the hall with an elemental dung fork in hand, ensuring that no one would disturb the conversation.

But it’s not that there isn’t a third party listening.

Lady Loyal St. Jedworth is currently hanging on the wall of the command hall in a very unseemly manner.

The shadow-like chain of control extending from Blake's black seal bound the long-legged blue angel's limbs and neck, stretching her whole body, and a pair of wide wings hung weakly. On both sides of the body, there was blue blood dripping continuously along the white sacred feathers.

All the armor and clothing on this saint's body had been removed, and she was only wearing close-fitting clothing. She now looked embarrassed and helpless, like a poor little beast captured by a fierce hunter.

Let alone running away, he couldn't even resist.

But the pirate did not block the mind of Ms. DeVos, who had interacted with him many times. He did not mind that the loyal saint listened to his conversations with his guests.

The mysterious visitor wearing a hood said to Blake:

"Thanks to your blessing, I have been secretly contacting my compatriots since I returned to the Shadow Kingdom. The effect is not bad. I have now attracted some group of lonely people who are very marginalized in our civilization system.

But with all due respect, Lord Silent One, we don’t mind taking risks for the future you promised. However, our strength is indeed weak, and it is difficult for us to make waves under the eyes of the emperor.

This is not a matter of loyalty.

This is a question of ability. "

"Of course I have taken this into consideration, and you can rest assured that I have made arrangements."

Blake smiled and turned out a special forged stone emblem in his hand like magic. He threw the thing to his guest and said:

"Do you still remember why your clan was expelled from Revendreth?"

The pirate's guest didn't say anything. He just took the badge he handed him and rubbed it carefully in his hand. After a few seconds, the man said:

"You mean, Lord Stonesmith has forgiven us for our past sins? The door to our hometown has been opened for us?"

"You may be more imaginative, my friend."

The evil god snorted and said:

“My hometown not only opens the door to you wanderers, but also allows you to have your own domain in the place where you were born.

You can share the land of Revendreth with your brothers the Venthyr.

No more Stoneborn will capture you and kill you, and you no longer need to rely on other powerful forces to survive. Nasrezim, you can have your own civilization, or form a twin civilization with the Venthyr.

You have a common Creator, and you are brothers.

I have already established a relationship with Prince Raysonar. As long as he can return to Revendreth, and as long as the authority of the Great Emperor is taken over by another King of Sin, your miserable days will be completely over.

There will be three positions in the new Court of Reapers that will forever belong to the Nathrezim.

How about it?

Is this condition generous enough? "

"Far beyond my imagination."

The hooded man was obviously excited.

It took a deep breath and pulled down the hood covering its head. It was not until this moment that the weak Loyal Saint, who was hanging on the wall, could clearly see the figure of the guy.

That's a golden fear devil

Here is the eldest daughter, a demon-like creature that harnesses the power of the Holy Light. This is a weird and impossible creature.

"What can my friends and I do for you?"

The Holy Light Demon Lord Losaxon, who had been ordered to lurk in the Kingdom of Shadows before, did not hide his appreciation and expectations for the cooperation plan proposed by Black.

It asked very respectfully:

"Do we need to participate in the resistance and assassination of Emperor Denathrius?"

"You can't do it."

Blake slapped her face mercilessly and said:

"You can't resist your creator, at least not now, and I never had any hope that an empty promise would bring me many Nasrezim reinforcements.

I admit that there are rare rebels like you in your species, but most of the Dread Lords are a bunch of shameless bastards.

I can't trust them.

So I will only give you the simplest task.

You know that this journey is for the Nathrezim to be eternally free from enslavement to your evil Creator. This is your fight for your own evil freedom.

I need you to make the right choice at that critical moment.

I know that you are the group of people the Emperor trusts most, and you are the last escape route He leaves for himself.

Therefore, I need you to stab the heart of the emperor who is so weak and desperate when this escape route is activated.

I need you to do what you do best.

I need you to launch a shameful betrayal!

Ending, understand? "

The evil god leaned on the bone throne that belonged to Fenner, Queen of Creation. He held his pipe in his mouth and said in a relaxed tone to the thoughtful Holy Light Demon Lord Losaxon:

"I give you the power to finish. Do you want to continue to live in the shadow of the sewers like rats and obey a sewer king who can never make a comeback?

Or do you want to stand on the side of the winner and enjoy a happy life without a big boss above your head?

It all depends on you.

Freedom can never rely on charity. You should understand this very well. Finally, I know that you are still connected to the Holy Light Realm, Losaxon. "

Blake coughed and whispered:

"That's your unique 'scarcity'. Anyway, promise me to give the Emperor a real 'surprise' for me, okay?"

"Of course, Your Majesty the Silent One, I have been looking forward to that day."

The Lightlord Lothaxon knew it was time to retire. A dreadlord appeared too conspicuous on the battlefields of Maldraxxus and Ascension Bastion.

Of course, it did not forget another important matter, and before leaving, it introduced a strange Gryon who also wore a full-body hood to Lord Black.

It introduces:

"This woman is the current commander of the Forsworn, and she has come to listen to your dark wisdom and learn from you on behalf of her confused brethren.

There are huge doubts in her heart, but I believe you can give her an answer.

Oh, right.

I also heard about a small incident when I was traveling secretly in the Ascension Fortress. It was said that an unlucky female agent was imprisoned in the Ascension Tower by the Kyrians because of some trivial matters.

And that unlucky female agent mentioned your name when she was arrested.

She calls herself your treasurer.

If that's true, then I think you should probably take the time to rescue your minions.

As far as I know, the Kyrian Ascendants have never been kind to souls who are not pure and obedient enough. "

Ps:

Tired, destroy it.
