Shadow Trails in Azeroth

No matter how difficult the night is, it will eventually pass.

When the first ray of sunlight shone on Azsuna, the outer perimeter of Narthalas College had changed drastically.

The Naga camp was ravaged by demons all night, and most of it was destroyed. In the ruins in front of Nathalas College, there was also a guy of terrifying size lying there.

It was an Annihlan demon.

Well, this is a more academic term, and more popularly, they would be called abyss lords. There are also some unlearned guys who will call these guys "big butts" based on their physical characteristics.

This kind of high-level demon has a really big butt, and is basically the race with the biggest butt within the Burning Legion.

But it's also incredibly scary not to get in the way.

Its appearance is as tall as the mammoth, a legendary creature unique to the Northrend continent, with a body and four legs covered in scales like a lizard, and a tail and wings like a dragon.

The upper body also has two claws holding double-headed war spears, and the inverted triangular head is burning with evil fire, like a crown with flames.

Even if these guys are dead, their appearance is extremely terrifying. At least the Nagas are very scared. They disperse at night without any intention of fighting the devils.

So how did the abyss lord summoned by the evil eye die?

Very bizarre.

It was blasted to death by the fireball technique, or it might be more accurately called the meteorite technique.

By the inner lake outside the academy, Black stood on the body of the dead abyss lord. He frowned and looked at the high-level demon at his feet. This guy should be only one step away from legendary power.

They themselves are a legendary demon race, naturally violent and powerful. In the material world, they can withstand the siege of three or four human legends.

But he died so quickly, which really left people scratching their heads.

"That's what happened, Captain. It's not that I didn't work hard, it's that the elf ghost that suddenly appeared was too scary. As soon as he appeared, he summoned the meteor technique to attack the abyss lord.

There's no way this big demon can be stopped.

I saw with my own eyes that the ghost didn't summon one or two meteorites! The scene was so exaggerated. He waved his hand and more than a dozen meteorites fell from the sky.

He beat this unfortunate devil alive until he was dizzy.

Then there was a series of ferocious fireballs the size of cannonballs, which burned the demon's chest and tore it open. I have never seen such a powerful mage.

I've fought against Dalaran's mages on the battlefield.

It is no exaggeration to say that the meteorites summoned by Dalaran's mages are not even worthy of carrying the ghost's shoes! "

Behind Black, Evil Eye was describing last night's battle to his captain in an exaggerated tone.

Behind the orcs, the troll Zarak is still busy. He is working with Black's demon guard Clinflan, one holding a sharp spear and the other holding a magic steel battle axe.

He was tearing apart the skin and flesh of the abyss lord with difficulty, and obtained bragging "trophies" for the pirate commander who was overjoyed with his success.

Black planned to carve out the heart of the abyss lord.

Use the demonic organ full of magic to create a warlock treasure. Then cut off the ugly head of the abyss lord, which was flattened by the meteorite, and use it to decorate his treasure ship.

Kanrisad stood under the body of the abyss lord and used a container to collect the demon's blood.

The orcs in Maimu are now also affected by demonic blood, and they are becoming weaker.

Although this demon blood does not come from the demigod demon that originally polluted the orcs, it is not a big problem to use it to relieve the orcs' demon blood.

"So, you just watched that ghost suddenly appear, use its power to kill the abyss lord we spent so much effort to summon, and then walk away?"

Blake covered his eyes and said in a cold tone:

"You still have the nerve to tell me a story here! At least stop that ghost and let me have a few words with him, you loser!"

"That's not my fault, Captain."

Xie Yan innocently spread his hands and said to his captain:

"I was frightened at the time. How could I dare to go out and block other people's roads? Such a big abyss lord was smashed to death with meteorites. If I dared to go out, I probably wouldn't even be able to withstand a fireball.

But the ghost must be in these ruins, and he must not have gone far. "

"Ah, trash."

The pirate kicked the evil eye with a headache.

The orc also knew that he had messed up, so he could only laugh along with him.

However, although the process of the matter was relatively bad, fortunately the result was not bad.

The appearance of a large number of demons scared away the Nagas who were surrounding the local area, and finally made the chaotic situation around Nathalas College calmer.

"Now, let's reward based on merit."

Black took out the Eye of Gul'dan from his bag, which the three warlocks longed for so much. He threw it in his hand, glared at the orc, and threw it to the skinny boy Kanrui not far away. Sade.

explain:

"Skinny boy did the best job last night. You all saw it. He took down all the instructors by himself and blocked the academy to prevent the elves and ghosts from running out.

No one will complain about this reward, right? "

The trolls and orcs looked sad, but they accepted the result rationally and did not dare to complain.

But how shrewd Blake was.

He glanced at his incompetent subordinates and spoke again:

"I use the Skull of Gul'dan for my own use, so don't think about it. However, among the gifts left by the great warlock, there is also a Heart of Gul'dan, which is now stored with Red.

Another Eye of Gul'dan was given to Pope Faol by me, but it was just a symbolic item for victory in the war against the orcs. It is said that the Pope intended to transfer such a thing to Dalaran as a research object for the mages.

But what do mages want that for? "

The eyes of the troll and the orc suddenly lit up.

They knew that their captain had always wanted to plunder Dalaran. Now we are just trying to make a difference between the two of them. After all, they are the first batch of old men to follow the captain. Blake still thinks of some hard work.

"Captain, don't worry! This time it was just an accident. Next time we have a mission, we will never let you down!"

Xieyan and Zarak clapped their chests to express their loyalty, looking like die-hard losers, but the captain shook his head, if it weren't for these two guys being somewhat useful and winking.

They should be given

"Captain! Look, Dean Lan Yue is coming out."

Kanrisad now had the Eye of Gul'dan, and he was happily playing with this good thing. When he turned around, he saw Elya Blue in the shadow of the entrance to the ruins of Narthalas Academy not far away. Dean Yue walked out slowly.

The pirate whistled and told his henchmen to continue working.

He walked briskly to Dean Lan Yue. The dean, who had never left his office for ten thousand years, was now standing in the shadow of the boundary between light and darkness.

She looked at Blake, and after a few seconds, said:

"Nathras Academy will serve you, Blackshaw.

But let me make it clear in advance that we are a cooperative relationship. If your fleet fails on the sea, if you too die in the conquest, then we will stand alone.

But as my student, if you are really unfortunate enough to die, I will try my best to take your soul back to the academy and complete your unfinished courses.

Go ahead.

The Tidestone is in my office, bring it out, load it on your ship, and ship it away. "

The words made Blake smile.

I don’t know how difficult Dean Lan Yue’s thinking process was this night, but now that the results are good and everything is fine, he can’t help but feel the pain of going undercover in the college in person.

However, he still had questions and said:

"Will taking away the Tide Stone have any impact on the other ghosts in Azsuna?"

"Won't."

Dean Lanyue pushed up his crystal glasses.

Among the ruins, she looked at her hometown that had been dead for ten thousand years.

The prosperity of the past has become a thing of the past, and the elven city that stood here 10,000 years ago has turned into a ruin of incomparable decay.

What a great change.

The spellcaster stretched out her hand to support the dilapidated and cracked wall beside her, and she said softly:

"Azshara's curse has been permanently imposed on this land through the power that surged when the Tide Stone was broken. Whether the Tide Stone is present or not will not affect the power of the curse to continue to take effect.

There are only two ways to save this land from this terrible and heavy fate.

Either kill Azshara, which is nearly impossible.

Or you can only use the power of magic to deal with magic and find a way to undo the curse on this land. This is also the second condition on which I promise to serve you, my student. "

Dean Lan Yue looked at the pirate apprentice in front of her and said:

"You must help me undo the dark fate that the tyrant Azshara has imposed on her people. Until the power of the curse is lifted, these ghosts will not be able to rest in peace."

"This is simple."

The pirate clapped his hands and said:

"Since the power of the curse is released by the shattering of the Tide Stone, we only need to recast it, and perhaps we can use the energy of the same source to smooth out the brutal magic on this land."

"Easy to say!"

Lan Yue glared at Blake and said:

"I've tried for ten thousand years, but I haven't found any way to recast the Tidestone, you"

"We mere mortals can't help it, but others can."

The pirate spread his hands and said seriously:

"This stone is a personal possession of the Titan God Gorgonas. Since it concerns the gods, no one in this world understands it better than the blood descendants of Gorgonas.

Those sea giants who have fallen into the barbaric era must know more secrets about this artifact.

And I happened to know that there was a place where a sea giant lived for a long, long time, and he was also the Loa god of all sea giants. "

"Then what are we waiting for?"

Alya Blue Moon's eyes immediately lit up, and she reached out to grab Black's wrist, making the pirate feel a chill.

The dean showed an urgency that a spell caster should not have and said:

"Let us set sail now to find it!"

"not now."

Blake waved his hand and said:

"That place is the base camp of the Nagas on the mainland. We are going there now just to die. Be patient, Dean, you have been waiting for 10,000 years, not less than these few years.

By the way, this is for you. "

The pirate took out the Naqfar ship's ticket book from his luggage, tore out a page, handed it to Alya Blue Moon, and said:

"Write your name, Dean, and then you will be free. Please keep a low profile. This ticket is only ten pages. I can't give freedom to all the seniors and mentors."

After saying that, the pirate clasped his hands behind his back and walked down the empty ruins of Nathalas College, intending to move the Tide Stone out.

On the other side of the inner lake, the ancestral turtles who knew the news were already ecstatic.

Scroll Sage Old Nora, with her short legs, actually ran at a super high speed that the Ancestral Turtle should not have - it was already close to the speed of a normal human being walking slowly!

The Tide Stone means more than just power to them.

With this thing, they can ensure that they will not continue to be bullied by the Nagas in the sea. This is a major matter related to the survival of the race.

Dean Lanyue ignored the slow-moving Ancestral Turtles she saw for the first time. She looked at the fluttering ticket in her hand. After hesitating for more than ten seconds, she stretched out her hand, and a delicate magic quill appeared. in hand.

The dean wrote his name in very beautiful handwriting on the ticket.

As the ticket burned in the pale flames, Elya Blue Moon felt a call from the distance. She finally looked back at the academy she had protected for ten thousand years.

After losing all the students and tutors, there is nothing here worthy of the dean's nostalgia.

After losing the meaning of persistence, what is left here is just an ordinary ruin.

She sighed, closed her eyes, and with the etiquette of a spell caster, said her final farewell to the academy where she had lived for ten thousand years, and then disappeared in the light of the stream.

Only a gust of Azuna's violent magical wind was left, rolling up the rough dust beneath his feet.

Goodbye, Azuna.

Goodbye, my hometown that I can never go back to.

——

"Buzz"

Ms. Blue Moon appeared on the deck of the Nagfar, which was deep in the sea. She looked curiously at the ghost ship in front of her. Blake's good first mate Sephiel was already here to greet a legendary spellcaster. arrival.

The dean nodded to her and walked towards the cabin.

She desperately needed a break.

But after taking a few steps, Ms. Blue Moon suddenly blinked and said to Sephiel:

"Is there any magic item from Suramar on the ship?"

"Yes, there are many."

Seifer said:

"What's wrong? Is there any problem?"

"It's a big problem."

The dean chuckled, pushed up his glasses, and said:

"Someone is trying to use those magic items to locate the ship. According to the current fluctuation of magic power, they will soon open the portal to the cabin.

This is the best show of the spellcasters of Elisande's relic seeker faction.

My disciple is really stupid.

Should these things of unknown origin be carried onto the ship casually?

Give me some time and I'll help you solve this."

"No, no, no, no need to solve it!"

The pirate dragon Sephiel was stunned for a moment, then immediately put on a smile, persuaded Dean Blue Moon to rest, and then gave an order to the undead knights on the ship:

"Quick! Throw those Nightborne magic silver coins in the bottom warehouse into the trench together with the box!"

"You dare to plot against us, you bastards! I'll drown you!"
