Hokage of Azeroth

Raise the tent.

When the sunlight that poured into his pupils calmed down, the scene of the prosperous fields came into view clearly.

Compared with the western wilderness in the game, the scene in front of Luo Wei was much more prosperous and rich, and high-quality wheat fields could be seen everywhere.

It is said to be wilderness, but in fact it is not wilderness at all.

Not only that, it is also known as the granary of the Kingdom of Stormwind, which shows its agricultural development.

The reason why it became a "wilderness" is first of all due to the deviation of the game's translation. Its English name is westfall, and it might be more appropriate to translate it into "Westfall" or "Western Autumn Wilderness".

As for the fact that it became a wilderness, it was a gift from the current situation, or more accurately, a gift from the Defias Brotherhood.

The Defias Brotherhood was a group of salaried masons and architects who rebuilt Stormwind City after it was destroyed by war, but the nobles refused to pay them.

The conflict between the two sides continued to escalate. During a riot last year, the widely loved queen came out to appease the masons, but was stoned to death in the chaos, leading to an irreversible situation.

Eventually the stonemasons fled the city and founded the Defias Brotherhood amid the hustle and bustle.

Of course, the reason why this conflict has intensified to this point is that Countess Katrana Presto—or the black dragon Onyxia—is really indispensable.

If it weren't for the "Daji" of Stormwind City who secretly became angry and provoked everything, things would never have developed to the point where it would be difficult to end.

But except for Luo Wei, probably few people knew about this at this time.

And even if he knew, he would not dare to provoke this cunning, ambitious and powerful Black Dragon Princess.

Under the leadership of leader Edwin VanCleef, the angry Masonic Brotherhood transformed into the Defias Brotherhood and continued to fight against the Kingdom of Stormwind.

Unfortunately, the paycheck fraternity eventually turned into a full-blown bandit gang.

In the near future, they will plunder everywhere in the western wilderness. The farmers will die and escape, and they will be miserable.

The gangsters of the Brotherhood robbed the land and didn't know how to manage it, so the granary of the Kingdom of Storm naturally became the Wild West in the game.

Of course, the Brotherhood at this time had just been established and had not yet become what it would become later. Many members who had been stonemasons retained respect for laborers, so the western wilderness seemed to be relatively prosperous and stable.

Not only that, besides fighting against the Kingdom of Stormwind, the current Defias Brotherhood also often does some good deeds for the local farmers, which seems to have the meaning of "taunting the people and crusading against crime."

At this time, the farmers in the western wilderness probably would not have imagined what kind of disaster this former masonry brotherhood would bring to them.

"I asked, why do you look so haggard today?" The person who came to call Rowe was Benny Blanco, a blond young man.

The two are considered friends, although they have only known each other for a short time.At the same time, Blanco was also Rowe's guide into the fraternity.

Unlike Rowe, Blanco is a full member of the Brotherhood, as can be seen from the red mask on his face.

Official members of the Defias Brotherhood all wear red masks, and the material of the mask shows their status within the organization.

Low-level members like Blanco wear masks made of burlap.

"It's nothing." Of course it was difficult for Luo Wei to explain.

"Have you ever used the poison I gave you?" Blanco asked again.

"...Used."

"How is it, is it useful?"

"... easy to use."

Blanco patted him on the shoulder: "Remember to use it sparingly, I don't have much of this stuff."

Rowe sighed: "To be honest, Blanco, I'm not used to stealth and poison... Maybe I should hold two axes."

"Maybe." Blanco was noncommittal, "However, if we want to fight against the powerful nobles, we must use these methods. We don't have armor made of Thorium and horses that can run a thousand miles a day, daggers and poison are just Our best mate."

"...One day, the dagger of the Brotherhood will be inserted into the heart of the nobles, and these damn bastards will use their lives to pay the arrears of wages!" Blanco said with a little excitement, he was a member of the storm. The city's masons are in arrears with wages.

Luo Wei: "You seem to have forgotten one thing, I am not a mason."

Blanco frowned: "Okay, I don't seem to know what you did before. What did you do before?"

"Rogue." Luo Wei recalled.

"Haha." Obviously, Blanco thought it was a joke.

But Rowe was telling the truth.

His predecessor, the past Redpath, had been fooling around for many years. Although he had not committed murder, arson, or any other evil deed, he had done the same thing. He had stolen women's underwear and snatched children's toys. Called a textbook-level gangster.

Among the new members of the Defias Brotherhood, there are more and more ruffians similar to Redpath, and even scum villains whose behavior has no bottom line.

To a certain extent, this is why the Defias Brotherhood degenerated into a group of bandits.

"Captain." The two came to Lightfinger.

"Here you are, Benny Blanco." Thoros Leitfinger seemed to have a good memory, and even had an impression of Rowe, "and Redpath."

A dozen thieves from the Defias Brotherhood had gathered around.

Among these dozen people, about half are full members, and the other half, like Luo Wei, are seeking to become full members—the brotherhood is rapidly expanding its personnel.

Among the many new members, some are wanted fugitives, some are fanatical young people who come here in admiration, and some are working people at the bottom who are oppressed by tyranny and have to resist. They come from all backgrounds and races.

There are even said to be minotaurs.

The Brotherhood accepts all comers, the only requirement is that you have some ability.

"Everyone is here." Leitfinger counted the number of people and said immediately, "We are calling everyone here because we plan to take down a group of jackals... These filthy beasts have repeatedly attacked the Brotherhood and the The residents nearby must give them some color."

"It's the damn gnolls again. There seem to be more and more gnolls in the western wilderness." The thieves were talking one after another.

"I heard from Uncle Stallman that a very strong guy has appeared among Alvin's gnolls recently..."

"Drive the gnolls from our lands!"

"For the Brotherhood!"

"Fortunately, it's not a fish man." Blanco turned his head and said to Rowe.

The strong and bloodthirsty gnolls are indeed more ferocious than the murlocs, but the murlocs who run around in groups, howl, and are slimy and fishy may be the most disgusting race.

Luo Wei nodded absently.

"Those who perform well in this battle will be able to officially join the Brotherhood." Leitfinger said this to the trainee members.

"The jackals are ferocious and bloodthirsty. Once they bite you, they will never simply let go. They are more likely to tear off a piece of your flesh and eat it in front of you, so be careful-"

Leitfinger didn't finish his words.

Suddenly someone exclaimed: "What is that!"

"Holy light, I saw something!"

Everyone followed the man's gaze and saw smoke and dust billowing in the distance. A vaguely human-shaped red whirlwind mixed with some lightning stood violently on the hillside.

"Boom..." The red whirlwind emitted a humming sound, and the sound became louder and louder.

A corpse-crushing bird couldn't avoid it. It whined and was sucked in, shattered to pieces.

"Dust Demon!" Leitfinger's pupils shrank.

Luo Wei also recognized the dust demon, the only elemental creature in the western wilderness.

He still remembers that in the game, this guy has a chance to drop a good thing called "Magic Dust". Magic Dust can put enemies into sleep. The effect is very powerful, so it is expensive. As a result, there are often full-level large players who come here specifically. Hunt the Dust Demon in the Wild West.

I wonder if dust demons in real life would also drop this thing.

Of course, this means nothing to the current Luo Wei. With his current strength, facing the Dust Demon is tantamount to suicide.

Even in the game, this monster is a famous road bully and trumpet killer in the western wilderness, wandering around and killing countless people.

The dust demon in front of me seems to be more powerful than shown in the game.

"Captain...it seems to be coming this way, what should we do?" Everyone was a little nervous.

"Is that an elemental creature? It's the first time I've seen this thing with my own eyes."

"The Dust Devil is the most dangerous thing in the entire Western Wilderness. As far as I know, there shouldn't be any around here. What a hell today!" Captain Leitfinger said without hesitation, "Retreat, retreat, the plan is cancelled!"

"retreat!"

The so-called thieves or stalkers are too broad a classification, with huge internal differences.

In fact, high-level thieves should not be called thieves at all, but should be called assassins.For example, Van Cleef, the leader of the Brotherhood whose killing skills are no less than architectural, would only consider himself an assassin, not a thief.

As for low-level thieves, they are basically "thieves" in the literal sense, a ragtag group with no threshold at all.

A ragged beggar with only a tattered dagger can be called a thief.

This group of people, including Luo Wei, are standard low-level thieves, and may also be the true portrayal of the humble yellow people in some versions.

Such a group of miscellaneous soldiers cannot deal with elemental creatures at all, and there is no other way but to shift tactics.

Everyone immediately dispersed like birds and beasts and went back to their homes.

After running all the way back to his small broken tent, Rowe couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

Fortunately, the plan was cancelled, otherwise in his current condition, he might have sent it on the first day of time travel.

In the game, if he dies, the angel sister will be resurrected. If he dies here, I'm afraid only the corpse bird and Denathrius's lackeys are waiting for him.

We must improve our strength as soon as possible!

Otherwise, we can't even survive in the small western wilderness, let alone Azeroth.

Luo Wei immediately closed his eyes and read the "Book of Sealings". To be precise, he read the eight armor-evading techniques in it.
