Azeroth Shadow Trail

Chapter 515

"The poor little bird can't fly now. It needs to rest for at least a month before its wings can fully recover."

In the Dalaran magic pet shop, a festively dressed white-haired dwarf with a ball head was standing on a chair, carefully helping Laike's trade wind crow's wings to be wrapped in bandages.

She is the owner of this pet shop, her name is Britney, and it is said that she is a well-known "Master of Pet Taming" in the entire Eastern Continent.

Of course, she's not a hunter.

Her pet taming master refers to taming small pets and using them in games and battles. Little murlocs like Benboerba are the targets of these pet taming masters.

In the Eastern Continent, it is also a very popular sport to let pets who have no actual fighting ability fight in a specific arena, especially among women.

Many human noblewomen are loyal fans of this cute and fun sport.

And the physical condition of the dwarves also determines that they have no chance with the hunter, a profession that needs to deal with ferocious beasts frequently. Most of the war beasts can easily swallow a dwarf at a time.

However, Laike learned through gossip that in Gnomeregan, the underground city of the dwarves, the artisan council has not given up on researching "mechanical war beasts" that can be tamed by the dwarves.

"Are you a warlock? Or a hunter?"

The little dwarf Britney, who was taking good care of the poor bird, raised her head and looked at Bo Laike, who was wearing the Corruptor's vestment. She said curiously:

"I feel the power of the wilderness contract from this poor little bird. Is it your war beast?"

"It's my baby egg."

Bu Laike caressed his poor little bird with the delicate affection that a hunter should have for pets. He said:

"Such a unique, smart and cute bird, how can it be used for fighting? I usually keep it, and occasionally use it for scouting. Master Britney, you can see what hurt my little baby egg ?"

"Uh, its wings have been burned."

While skillfully applying ointment to the bird, the dwarf master poked its feathers to check, and said with some doubts:

"It seems to be damage caused by magic, but the mages of Dalaran will not use magic to attack such a cute bird. Maybe some kind of magical beast escaped from the laboratory?"

"A flying beast that can use fire magic?"

Bu Laike glanced at the poor little crow on the table, he snorted, and said in a cold tone:

"Needless to say, I know who it is."

"quack quack"

The little murloc was also brought into Britney's Magic Pet Shop, and it was lying in front of the window, looking brightly at the clothes and decorations made for little pets displayed inside.

He turned back and called out to the pirate, pointing to the clothes in the window.

The meaning is obvious.

I want!

buy it for me!

"Buy it yourself! It's not that you don't have money, who did you learn bad habits from?"

The pirate replied impatiently.

The murloc was very angry.

Its eyes fell on the black crow being cared for by Laike, it was this little bastard! Since it came, Bo Laike has become more and more indifferent to himself.

The little murloc's gaze became vicious.

But soon he pretended to be harmless to humans and animals, and blew the fish mouth whistle, jumping to the table in front of Britney.

He grabbed a handful of gold coins from its small bag, and pointed to the pet clothes in the window to the little dwarf shopkeeper, meaning to get a set of everything.

"Such a smart little murloc is really rare, it's so cute."

The dwarf shopkeeper who likes small pets will see Benbo Erba, her eyes will melt. She carefully picked up the little murloc, moved her short legs, jumped off the chair, walked to the window, and took out those old gifts for her. The little murloc tries on clothes.

In the end, a magic pouch specially used to store clothes was also presented as an extra gift.

"I heard that you have a cooperation with the Wildhammer dwarves, and you will sell some tamed griffins?"

The pirate bandaged his wings, and held the clumsy trade wind crow in his arms. While stroking the bird's head, he asked the dwarf shopkeeper who was playing with Benbo Erba.

Master Britney raised his head and replied in a crisp voice:

"It is indeed for sale, but it is very out of stock now, and the griffins sent by the dwarves were sold out last month.

Mainly the mages and the nobles of the surrounding kingdoms are ordering. If the guests want it, they have to pay a deposit in advance, and it is estimated that they will have to wait for about half a year.

In addition, the griffins that were sent over were all eliminated by the dwarves.

They are all small, poor babies who couldn't survive in the wilds of the Hinterlands, so they were sent by the dwarves to find them a good home.

They can't be used for fighting, and they can't fly too far when flying. They are basically ornamentals. Of course, it is definitely no problem to use them for short-distance travel. "

"Then I want a batch to be used as an internal vehicle for Nazaras College."

Bu Laike readily took out a gold card from Goblin Bank, handed it to Britney, and whispered:

"Remember to issue double invoices, so I can use them for reimbursement. Your store has a good atmosphere, and I like these little pets very much. Let this be my 'investment' in this good store."

The pirate slipped a silver card to the dwarf.

Britney accepted it knowingly, and quickly wrote the invoice. Judging by her skillful movements, she must have done this kind of thing before. Sure enough, the brains of the gnomes are easy to use.

Although he is not as good as a goblin in doing business, he is definitely a good hand.

"Oh, by the way, there is one more thing to bother you."

After Laike received the invoice, he said to Britney, who had done a good deal and was in a good mood:

"I want you to take a letter to Gnomeregan for me, and give it to Master Overspark, saying that I am free now, and the expedition to Kul Tiras that I talked to him before can also be put on the agenda .

If he has free time, he will prepare his travel team and supplies, and come directly to Tol Barad to find me. "

"OK."

Britney nodded and promised to bring the letter. Bo Laike exchanged some pleasantries with her, and walked out of the pet shop with her baby bird and the satisfied little murloc after shopping.

According to the original plan, he was going to continue looking for Fenner.

However, when turning a street corner, the pirate suddenly found a small "smudge" on a brick under the wall, hidden in the grass, the kind that you can't even notice if you don't look carefully.

Keir Rogge's eye drifted over to take a closer look, and found that it was a mark of a little finger.

"Yo, my brother Shaw has also come to Dalaran, and he's still convening a meeting with SI:7. Tsk tsk, let me join in the fun too. I haven't seen him for a long time, and I don't know how he is doing now. Sample.

Well, give him a surprise. "

——

Shaw did come to Dalaran.

He set off first to "stand up" for His Majesty Lothar and Varian. The two important figures are still resting in South Sea Town, and it is estimated that they will not be able to enter Dalaran until tomorrow.

Due to the current situation, it is absolutely necessary for Shaw, the intelligence director of the Stormwind Kingdom, to come here in advance.

In the business district of Dalaran, Shaw, disguised as a carriage driver, parked his carriage in front of the Glory grocery store. He jumped out of the carriage, looked left and right, and supported his carriage in the dusk of the magical city. Grandma got out of the car.

Soon someone came out of the shop and left with a car.

Meanwhile, Xiao Er and Pasonia passed through a secret door in the grocery store in silence, and entered the underground hidden facility.

"It's not right, it's too quiet."

As soon as Granny Xiao stepped into the underground passage, she immediately became vigilant, flipped her right hand lightly, and a moon-curved dagger jumped into her hand. sword.

The two jumped into the shadows one after the other, and soon came to a small room underground.

Then they saw the SI:7 elites who had been summoned by the round table sitting upright on the chairs, but everyone was lying on the table. This scene made Xiao frowned.

No one died.

There's no smell of blood here, they're just knocked out.

According to the situation, when these elites were in a meeting, all the intruders were knocked down in a very short period of time, and there were no traces of fighting. The attack happened in an instant.

In addition, all valuables in the house were looted, and there were no footprints left on the ground.

A neat and clean robbery.

Definitely a "masterpiece".

"Bo Laike? Did you do it?"

Xiao Er jumped out of the shadows and asked indifferently.

Granny Xiao was still hiding in the shadows.

She didn't think the assailant was gone, but the problem was that she couldn't feel the slightest movement of the shadows around her. Her Assassin senses were telling her that there was nothing around, that it was safe here.

hell!

This is the most troublesome opponent for assassins.

"Certainly not such vile deeds by the great and free Lord Laike. Let me introduce myself to you."

As a group of dark green flames ignited in the corner of the room, the dancing sparks formed a very bluffing arch, and Cloth Laike, wearing the Corruptor vestment, walked out slowly with a scythe on his back.

Gul'dan's head was clasped in his left hand, which was glowing slightly. Against the backdrop of the evil fire behind him and the cassock, which was not a good person at first glance, he looked very, very evil.

He said:

"The one who came here is the Great Mentor of the Warlock School of Narsalas College, the King of Warlocks, and the Demon Chaser."

"Stop pretending."

Xiao Er stepped forward with a gloomy face, and looked at the pretending Bu Laike in front of him. He showed a fleeting smile, and stretched out his hand to hug his bad-tempered brother.

A second later, he said:

"I've got an 'anti-theft bomb' in my pocket, so put your fingers back, okay? You bastard!"

"Ha, I was just joking."

The pirate didn't feel ashamed at all, he let go of Xiao Er with a smile, then turned his head and said to the empty back:

"Come on, mother-in-law, don't you still hate me? Didn't you almost kill me after I cut off your arm? There is no irresolvable grievance between us, right?

want me to give you a hug "

"How did you develop such a heartless and bad character? Your parents didn't teach you when you were a child. You are really disgusting."

Granny Shaw appeared from behind Laike with a cold face. The dagger she was holding with one arm was right on the pirate's neck, and she only needed to swipe it lightly.

But looking at this guy's fearless appearance, he must have a way to escape the bad luck of death.

He got stronger again.

His grandson has made rapid progress, but compared with this nasty pirate, Shaw's progress is far from enough.

"Okay, let's get down to business."

Laike took a step back and leaned against the table full of SI:7 elites who had been knocked out. He looked at the underground chamber and said:

"My men told me that before he left Dalaran, a mysterious force took over the property of Ravenholdt. I thought it was the 'Duke' who took it over himself, but I didn't expect you to take it over .

Are you continuing to dig underground, are you planning to connect this chamber with the Dalaran sewers?

God, you have no imagination.

The sewer is not a good place to hide. You only need four or five large flame storms dropped by the mages from a few nodes above, and you can all be burned to death in the sewer. "

"I don't think they have that chance."

Shaw replied indifferently.

He took the initiative to end the topic, looked at Bo Laike, and said:

"Your 'Uncrowned' is also operating near Dalaran, and you also want to participate in matters related to Marshal Lothar?"

"Uh, I don't know."

The pirate shrugged and said embarrassingly:

"After all, the bounty is very rich, and I'm short of money now, so it's really hard to say."

"Who told me that an assassin who sells his skills for a few gold coins is the most pathetic?"

Shaw said sarcastically:

"You are short of money, and there are plenty of solutions. And if you can buy you with money, it would be too simple. I will pay you twice the bounty, and let your uncrowned man join the ranks of protecting Marshal Lothar!

make a deal? "

"Only twice?"

Bu Laike shook his head and said:

"Shao Er, Xiao Er, my brother, it is very expensive to ask an outstanding master like me to do it. I heard that when Granny Xiao was in full bloom, it would cost at least five times as much to ask her to terminate a certain task. .”

"What if I tell you some important news?"

Granny Xiao, who had been silent all this time, reached out and touched her silver-gray hair, she said softly:

"A news that will definitely shock you."

"Let's listen first."

Bu Laike became interested. He changed his posture and looked at Granny Xiao expectantly. The latter didn't hide anything, and said frankly:

"The 'Duke' disappeared two months ago, and Ravenholdt was also infiltrated by a mysterious force. Several other masters have obeyed the new leader, and the entire Assassin League is now in chaos.

If you join our side, it means that you will fight against most of Ravenholdt's forces in the northern border.

You really should think carefully, perhaps it is more appropriate for a greedy person like you to join them. "

"Wait, let me repeat what you mean, see if I'm right."

Bu Laike reached out and interrupted Granny Shaw.

He raised his head and said seriously:

"If I join you, it means that at least four master assassins and their lackeys can be hunted down by me, and there is also a mysterious strong man who can imprison the 'Duke' waiting for me to fight.

Do you mean that? "

"I think there is something wrong with your statement."

Granny Xiao said speechlessly:

"Is this the time to get high? Is your brain broken from drinking too much rum?"

"No, no, you didn't understand my needs."

Bu Laike stroked his chin, looked at the unlocked Warlock professional experience slot on the translucent character card in front of him, and said;

"Two. No, it may take three to fill it, and if you want to go one step further... well, I'll take that job! My brother Shaw, go talk to your little king.

I need at least five times the bounty, billing now, don't have to give me that money, deposit it directly into the account of the Uncrowned at the Goblin Bank.

Do not write "remuneration" when registering.

Don't humiliate us with money!

It is not money or rewards that support the actions of the Uncrowned, but something higher than reality.

It's a pity that we still live in the real world. Food and drink always require money, ideals must always be based on reality, and our faction construction always needs some "investment".

Well, in that name.

This is a lucrative deal, and a king as smart as Little Varian must be willing to give generously.

Come, give me information about the lackeys who betrayed Ravenholdt. Let me tell you in advance that I am only responsible for cleaning up, not saving lives.

We don't take escort missions, that's the rule of the Uncrowned. "
