Shadow Trails in Azeroth

After galloping for a day and a night, the three carriages guarded by the paladins finally arrived at their destination.

Under the mountainous highlands northeast of the Tirisfal region, the knights have dismounted. Although they are somewhat dusty after galloping for a long time, these well-trained knights still maintain extremely high military qualities.

Under the leadership of their respective captains, they stood guard around the carriage, and there was a dedicated person responsible for feeding the horses with fodder.

Ahead was the road into the mountain, but the escort led by the great knight Turalyon did not rush up the mountain. They only sent envoys to communicate with the guards of the Mograine family.

There is definitely good reason to be cautious these days.

In the convoy were the pope, a prince, a princess, a young king, and Anduin Lothar, the current "popular" figure in northern Xinjiang.

As long as one of these people is injured, it will be enough to cause a terrible political turmoil, not to mention that these people gathered together at this time are already a political force that cannot be ignored that can affect the political situation of mankind.

While waiting for the Mograine family to send out envoys to welcome them, Saidan Dathrohan strode to Black's side in the name of "letting go".

Unbutton your pants and stand side by side with the pirate.

The great knight whispered:

"What you just said"

"Shh, now is not the time to talk. You should go find a few trustworthy people first."

Blake shook his lower body, and the Eye of Kilrogg on his shoulder glanced downwards without leaving any trace. Oh, you are worthy of being a great knight, this capital is really rich.

The pirate put on his belt and whispered:

"Don't announce it to too many people, otherwise the old man will be suspicious. I will go find you when he prays for the new couple tomorrow."

"Um."

Dathrohan nodded silently and did not have any more communication with the pirates. He pretended to swing his waist back and forth, put on his belt and walked back to the team.

"You and the Great Knight are so close that you pee together? Are you little girls?"

Black had just taken a few steps when he heard Xiao's sound of being beaten behind him.

The intelligence chief of MI7 came here with his king. Judging from his current relationship with Varian, Shore has successfully established a foothold in the court of the young king.

"I heard that the Grand Knight Dathrohan is the most difficult to deal with among all the Grand Knights of the Church of Holy Light. He is silent and cold, abides by the commandments, and lives as austerely as an ascetic monk. Many people stay away from him.

But the Pope trusted him very much, and he had never failed the Pope. "

Shore, wearing a black noble robe, said behind Blake:

"It's amazing, my brother. He and you are complete opposites in every way. How did you get involved with someone like that? There must be a trick to it, right?

Share it. "

"The secret to making friends is actually very simple."

Blake said without looking back:

"He hates me, but he can't get rid of me, so he still wants to beg me. If this awkward relationship lasts for a long time, naturally we will become friends, just like when we first met.

The way I look at the world is very simple, as long as it is not my enemy, it is my friend.

Why don't you go serve your little king?

You have to know that without your careful protection, His Majesty Varian would probably have choked to death because he drank soup too quickly, or would have slipped and fallen into a latrine. "

"I'm here to advise you not to do anything stupid."

When Shore heard that bad guy Blake started to attack him personally, he changed his expression to an indifferent expression and said calmly:

"I haven't forgotten the last time you asked me to help you inquire about the price of Grand Duke Alexandros Mograine. I also know how bad your character is in this regard.

As long as it's something you like, you'll do whatever it takes to get it.

But don't go!

It's too dangerous to steal things in such a holy place. If something happens, the Pope won't be able to protect you. "

"Wouldn't it be nice if they didn't find out?"

The pirate rolled his eyes under his helmet, raised his left foot again, patted the dust on the half-worn boots on his feet, and said:

"If I was only 70% sure before, now that I have this treasure, I am 100% sure. Do you want to come with me? Can I open your eyes?"

"I will go with you if you don't tell me."

Xiaoer said expressionlessly:

"If your case is exposed, I will arrest you as soon as possible to prove that your stupidity has nothing to do with my lord, Marshal Lothar and His Majesty the Pope.

You better not get caught, Blake. "

The leader of MI7 moved his fingers, and a black knife spun a few times in his fingers. He said in a cold tone:

"I don't want to be part of the hunt for you."

"just you?"

Blake pouted and said:

"I think you are itchy or need a beating, my brother.

Otherwise, I'll say hello to all the masters in Ravenholdt, get your qualification for the Assassin Master Trial, and then 'point' you outright? "

"It's what I asked for."

Xiao still responded with the same cold face:

"After all, you hurt my grandma. Our relationship is on good terms, but we'd better find time to resolve our personal grudges, so as not to have boring guys gossiping."

"Then let's just say it. Don't say I bullied you then..."

The Eye of Kilrogg on Black's shoulder glanced toward the mountains ahead.

As the pupils of his magic eyeballs zoomed in, he saw a group of knights bearing the flag of the Mograine family galloping over from the gentle mountain road.

The leading knight is tall and strong, and he should be Alexandros Mograine himself.

"Walk!"

The pirate snapped his fingers, and he and Shore disappeared into the shadows of the woods at the same time.

Duke Mograine personally came to greet the Pope and Lothar. The Lordaen Monastery must also be busy welcoming the arrival of distinguished guests. Even if preparations are made in advance, the defense there will definitely be more chaotic than usual.

It's a good opportunity for penetration.

"Hey, little star, why do you want to look like Mr. Black?"

When the carriage started again, little Gianna watched in confusion as "Mr. Black" opened the door and got into the carriage. She took out an ornament given by her mentor, put it in front of her eyes and blinked.

Only then could he barely see Xiaoxing's disguise.

"Shh!"

The little blue dragon princess made a very feminine silent gesture, and imitated the captain's usual appearance. She sat in the carriage with her legs crossed, took out a bottle of wine from the side, and drank it down generously. Half a bottle.

"What the hell is so good about this thing?"

Little Xingxing made a retching motion, burped, complained again, and glanced to the side.

"Steam Princess" Siannigosa is currently disguised as a little star, holding up the hem of her skirt, imitating the elegant posture of the little princess, and carrying the plump "disguise tool" the little blue dragon Amygosa, towards the carriage Come here.

These two guys are both serious blue dragons, and their ability to use magic depends entirely on their talent.

Especially Little Xingxing, who was personally taught by Dean Lan Yue, the disguise magic she released on herself would be difficult to expose unless she was a professional stalker.

She waved to Seanigosa.

The moment the latter saw the little star, his face turned red, and there was scattered magic power in his hair.

"If you lose control again, I will drive you away."

Little Xingxing hurriedly shouted something in a low voice, causing Sai Anigosa to close her eyes in fear, and then she felt a little better.

"Who is this sister?"

Jaina asked curiously, and Little Xingxing made another "silent" gesture and said:

“Don’t ask now, I’ll tell you later.

But you can believe in her just like you believe in me. She is very powerful and can fight. Your brother's servants, my senior and captain Black are not necessarily her opponents.

So, please be nice to her. "

As the motorcade set off again and headed towards the monastery of Lordain in the mountains, Blake and Shore rode together. The Hippogryph Sky carried the two people through the high-altitude clouds.

Those with wings must run faster than those with four legs. After more than ten minutes, they arrived at the top of the Lordain Monastery halfway up the mountain.

This is a complex of buildings that covers an extremely large area. It is built against a mountain and is as big as a small city. The buildings on the outside and inside are intertwined, making the terrain here complex, making it easy to defend and difficult to attack.

Within the layer-by-layer defense line of the mountain col, there is also an ancient castle monastery building. From a high altitude, you can see that the priests and knights in the building below have lined up outside the castle, preparing to welcome the arrival of distinguished guests.

"I sent my little fishman out yesterday. It should be lurking somewhere in the castle now. If I go find it, I can locate the crystal."

On the saddle of the hippogryph hovering in the high-altitude clouds, Blake threw something to Shore behind him and said:

"You ride on my bird and scatter these things evenly."

"Evil stone?"

Xiao glanced at the things in his hand and said:

"You really figured out what this warlock does."

"Of course, you do what you do and love what you do.

A skilled demon warlock can defeat thirty elite assassins in this kind of infiltration mission. They are good at sneaking around.

Believe me, no one in this world understands assassins and warlocks better than me, and I definitely have the right to speak. "

Blake chuckled and said:

"Do you want me to help MI7 train a group of warlock agents? My requirements are not high. I want the 'Uncrowned One' to have the power to move freely and recruit people in the Kingdom of Stormwind."

"Okay, but behave yourself."

Shore responded.

Blake rolled his eyes and said:

"You can beat them if they don't obey the rules. If they are beaten, it only shows that they are weak. I will not stand up for the weak."

After saying that, the pirate fell headfirst towards the Castle of Lordain in a classic leap of faith.

The moment his figure left the cloud, he jumped into Shadow Escape.

It continued to accelerate in the air, and with a precise flash when it was about to land, it followed a backflip and landed steadily in the grass outside the monastery cathedral.

High in the sky, Shore continued to throw evil stones into the mountains and forests around the monastery. These stones filled with unstable evil energy would break when they fell from high altitudes and hit the ground.

It only takes two or three superimposed to create evil smoke of different sizes in the material world.

There were also a few processed soul stones mixed in. After throwing them away, they began to activate the small void gate in place, drawing some wild imps into the material world.

These weakest demons are so weak that a farmer with a rake can easily kill them. But they were also real demons, so the moment they were summoned, they attracted the attention of the knights patrolling around.

"Enemy attack! Enemy attack! There is a demon invasion!"

The piercing warning sound was accompanied by a sharp whistle, making the entire monastery tense.

There was a large-scale demonic invasion in Silverpine Forest a few days ago, and today we are welcoming distinguished guests. But at this juncture, demons also appeared around the monastery.

This immediately made the monastery commander, High Knight Commander Fairbanks, nervous.

Under his scolding, the high-ranking knights and their apprentices who were originally patrolling the monastery were sent to the surrounding mountains and forests to eliminate the threat before the distinguished guests arrived.

In order to ensure "realism", Blake's contracted demons Clifland and Daglop also "ambushed" two knights' retinue in two places.

And in "Panic Retreat", he dropped pieces of weapons that were clearly Black Knight style.

While it was busy outside, in the monastery, Blake was taking the little fishman who "lurked" last night, walking along the shadow of the wall of the cathedral area towards the central area of ​​the church.

The cunning and evil little fishman originally wanted to take the owner to drill a "fast lane" for canine creatures, but Blake hit the fish on the head with his finger, and then he honestly marked the target for the pirates.

"Quack"

It waved its paws and pointed at an inconspicuous building behind the church in front of it, indicating that the "big treasure" was hidden there.

The little fish man also relies on his talent in treasure hunting, and after so many things, the pirates already trust him in this aspect.

Under the envious gaze of the little fish man, his master swung out the dragon tendon hook lock in the shadow and climbed up the building as if he were walking on flat ground.

The whole process takes less than a second, as fast as a monkey.

After entering the display room, the pirate looked around. With the help of the Watcher's endless hunting talent, all the easily overlooked details in the entire room were exposed to him.

He quickly found a secret grid on the oil painting on the wall, and with a slight push, a secret door leading to the secret room was opened.

The pirate stuck his head out and took a look into the open secret room.

Good guy.

In the flow of magic sensed by the cursed vision, seven magic traps were laid out on the road less than twenty meters long, as well as engineering alarms that would trigger an alarm if one wrong step was taken.

The pirates can also feel the hollow walls on either side.

There must be flying arrows, poisonous gas or spikes or other vicious things hidden inside.

"As for it?"

Blake complained, stretched out his hands to adjust his clothes, and stepped out his feet carelessly.

He deliberately stepped on a piece of masonry that should have broken into pieces. Nesingwari's decoy boots worked wonders at this moment, allowing the pirate to walk over on flat ground without triggering the mechanism.

The shoes blessed by natural magic allow pirates to step on the air, even in the face of magic traps.

The secret chamber that Grand Duke Mograine spent a lot of money and energy on, and took many years to complete, is now open to all pirates.

But there is no way to hide anything valuable in such a small secret room.

The pirate glanced around and found that stored here were the Mograine family's territorial title deeds and industry certificates, as well as heraldic books recording the family branches.

Well, for a great noble family, these things are indeed very important.

But they are not even worth a gold coin to pirates, unless Black intends to write a letter to blackmail Mograine, but considering his current good relationship with the Church of Holy Light, it is better not to do such a bad thing.

Judging by his wisdom, he can understand that maintaining a good relationship with the church will bring significantly greater benefits to him.

Besides, there are many ways to make money from the church.

There is absolutely no need to resort to such a thankless and low-level method as blackmail.

"What I really want to find is you, my little baby."

Blake reached out and gently pulled out the secret compartment in front of him, and an orc-style bone box was taken out.

He gently opened the box in his hand, and a deep dark irregular crystal appeared in front of him. The reconnaissance technique was thrown up, and what came back was an orange stream of light mixed with red.

This is really a rare thing.

The pirate held the treasure box with the light of shadow in his hand, and smiled like a fool in the darkness.

He glanced back at the unexcited trap corridor, let out a weird laugh, quickly left the secret room, and threw the body of Eredin, the leader of the black knights, that he had collected previously, on the nearest magic trap.

In the crackling arcane light, he whispered:

"Duke Mograine, who will never have the chance to become the 'Ashbringer' again, your house's anti-theft measures should really be upgraded."
