Shadow Trails in Azeroth

The battle in the Qiraji Ruins is not over yet.

But in Blake's mind, it's coming to an end.

The death of the twin emperors represents the complete split of the will of the swarm. As long as Ms. Tyrande successfully tames or kills Princess Hahoran, the most powerful swarm lord, there will be no bug that can independently carry this huge will.

The schism of the Qiraji silithid is a foregone conclusion.

The demise of the Qiraji Empire was a foregone conclusion the moment C'Thun died.

This is a good thing for most civilizations in this world, and it is also a good thing for the smelly pirate, who has received many rewards today.

But being the charitable bastard that he is, Black feels the need to make sure everyone else gets their share of the rewards.

"Take it, take it back to your blacksmith, and let him handle my armor carefully. If it is scratched when I get it, I will go to the Hall of Valor to ask him for an explanation in person!"

At the entrance of the Qiraji Temple, Black handed the stacked Moon God Armor to Queen Addisil, who looked unhappy.

The latter took the pirate's equipment box and said to Black with his hands on his hips:

"I find that you are becoming less and less respectful to me. This is not okay. After all, I am also the Valkyrie Commander under the King of War. In your human legends, I am a god!"

"Yeah, the weak Qi God who was almost beaten to death by Hela."

Blake chewed his pipe and complained:

"If it weren't for me, you would still be a heroic soul in Rune Grove.

Although Heya has repeatedly emphasized that gratitude is also a virtue of Vrykul people, your Majesty the Queen's behavior really makes me doubt the authenticity of this statement. "

"My best descendants are now pirates on your ship!"

Queen Addisil screamed:

"You still want to ask for benefits from me? Your stinking soul is hopeless. If I weren't a heroic spirit, I would definitely stab you to death and throw your soul into Hades!

Speaking of Hades

There have been some terrible changes there recently. Although the Lord of War claimed not to care about it, I always feel that Hades was swallowed up by the void because of you.

Tell me honestly, is that true?"

"I don't know, I don't understand, don't ask me."

Blake waved his hands and retreated into the shadows, saying:

"Why do you blame me for such a terrible crime of destroying hell? You Valkyrie really likes to tell jokes. Hahaha, go back quickly. I don't need your help here.

Also, remember to pick me up and take me to Uldum in a few days.

I have made an agreement with your King of War that mortals cannot enter that place now, but I know that you will definitely be able to enter. "

"I'm not coming."

Queen Addisil flapped her golden wings and took off into the sky. She put her lightning wing helmet on her head and said:

"Whoever likes it will come. I don't want to deal with you as a bastard anymore! May Odin send down thunder and lightning to kill you next time you do something bad."

"He wouldn't do that!"

Blake winked and said provocatively:

"I am now the heart of your King of War, and he still expects me to make suggestions for him, haha, see you next time, Her Majesty the Queen.

Say hello to Emperor Thoradin for me. "

Watching the Valkyrie leap across the battlefield and fly towards the sky fortress high in the clouds, Blake exhaled a long breath of smoke. He frowned and retreated into the dark temple, thinking that the situation on the other side of Hell seemed to be true. Not optimistic.

Even the Valkyrie noticed the strange changes there.

But if you think about it carefully, Hades is a small plane between the material world and the shadow world. Even if it is completely swallowed by the void, it will not affect the current world.

So the pirate, who was wearing a hunting suit, quickly put the matter behind him.

The hell horse he summoned once again went down the winding path from the Qiraji temple to the underground insect nest.

But this time, he did not go to the ancient god's seal at the bottom. Instead, he chose the largest parallel movement among the maze-like insect nest tunnels that extended in all directions.

Soon, Blake entered the central area of ​​the Qiraji hive along the corpses of silithid bugs scattered on the ground.

Most of the insect corpses around were covered with traces of scorch. It was obvious that Tyrande had used the moon god's magic to blast them all the way. This scene was very similar to Maiev's fighting posture in the moonlit War God state.

The divine meteorites falling from the stars bombard the surroundings, basically ensuring that no bugs can get close.

This scene also made the pirate feel sour, just like having several sour lemons.

Everyone is the target of Lady Elune's attention. She is also a reserve member of the Moon God's Chosen, but look at the power of her own daughter.

High-level magical spells such as Stars Falling can be used to kill insects.

I have been paid attention to by the Moon God for so long, but I haven't seen Ms. Elune give me any good things. Not to mention the falling stars and other good things, there are a few more good things like the Moon God's armor.

Tsk tsk, I have worked hard to "live broadcast" for so long, trying every possible way to please the "big sister on the list", why don't I see Bai Fumei give me some rewards?

Alas, the treatment of wild children picked up from outside is really different from that of biological daughters.

With such unsatisfactory and evil thoughts, the stinky pirates followed the "signpost" guided by the corpse of the unlucky insect that was killed. Before approaching the area where the insect lord Princess Haholan was, Blake discovered another incredible thing. something.

The corpse of a huge silithid general was bleakly blocking the way forward.

This guy has a very weird appearance.

Like a mixture of ants, scorpions and spiders, the desert yellow carapace is covered with red evil lines, and the sharp insect claws are like sharp blades that make people shudder.

The black mouthparts are intertwined, and it will definitely not be a problem to tear a minotaur into pieces.

Looking at its length of nearly twenty meters, you can tell that this guy is definitely a war machine of the Qiraji swarm, and being able to live close to Princess Haholan's lair also proves that it should be a loyal guard of Her Highness the swarm princess.

This guy's name is Van Kress.

There are many stories about it in the records of Kaldorei. The veterans who survived the War of Quicksand called it "The Tenacious Vankress". It is said that it single-handedly withstood the retreat of the zerg swarm. The attack by nearly a hundred elite rangers and druids also killed many elf warriors.

All in all, a great character.

But now, it's finished.

The sharp and predatory forelimbs were abruptly broken by brute force, and the six leg segments that could tear steel were also wrapped and torn apart by tangled vines. The thick carapace was torn apart, and the smelly flesh and blood were burned by the fairy fire. trace.

Even the black and ruthless eyeballs were mostly gouged out by sharp claws.

In the position of the brain, there are several exquisite white-feathered arrows inserted. The entire huge body is covered with stones smashed by meteorites. It can be seen that Tyrande and her druid "pet" jointly killed her. .

This insect died without any regrets.

"Oh, I'm just used to being lavish. To leave such good materials here is like this. It seems like I'm not a person who knows how to live a good life."

Blake pulled out his skinning knife and jumped down into the pit with eyes shining.

While complaining about Tyrande and Malfurion not knowing how to make the best use of everything, he collected the carapace and insect limbs of the powerful swarm lord.

These are excellent crafting materials.

The local Cenarion druids have also mastered the art of making armor from Qiraji limbs during their thousands of years of garrison. When the time comes, they will send a few ingenious pirates to learn here. The Crowned Assassins will have new armor to wear.

These insect shells are as strong as steel, but have the lightness of leather armor, and are extremely resistant to toxins. They are definitely the favorite of armorers.

As for the insect's limbs, they can be used to make weapons naturally enchanted with poison.

Integrating elemental steel into these limbs can create extremely lethal daggers, daggers and axes, which may also become the new standard equipment of the Uncrowned after the daggers made from lava fangs.

Speaking of which, it seems that many Qiraji took advantage of the chaos and escaped during this battle.

Black rubbed his chin and thought that the next assessment of the Uncrowned should be held in the Silithus Desert, where many Twilight Hammer cultists happened to be hiding.

There are many goals that you can choose for your assassins who possess the creed. They will definitely have a fulfilling autumn here.

It was such a happy decision.

"buzz"

Just when the pirates had collected the remains of the swarm lord, a harsh buzz suddenly sounded in the pit ahead. The sound was extremely sharp, like a harsh sound wave, and it made the entire cave reverberate.

Blake's eyes lit up, and he quickly used the Shadow Gate to send himself into the nest of the Queen Bug ahead.

The moment he emerged from the bloody light, he saw Tyrande, the high priest of the moon, sitting limply on the ground, and Malfurion half-kneeling beside him to remove the poison from Tyrande.

This powerful couple looked embarrassed, but the huge incubator filled with insect eggs was surrounded by the corpses of various Qiraji royal guards.

Even stacked together to form a very spectacular scene.

Facing such a density of enemies and being able to defeat them and survive, it is estimated that only a combination of gods like Tyrande and Malfurion can do it.

But even though Tyrande's strength was close to that of a demi-god, her face was still pale this time. Most of the armor on her shoulders had been removed, but she didn't look attractive at all.

Because there is a black spike nailed there that makes people feel chilled.

Just like the tail spike of a wasp, it is slender and surging with black light. It looks poisonous at first glance, and it definitely contains some strange corrosive energy.

"Don't touch it!"

Black gave a warning, then dodged and landed next to Malfurion. He reached out and pressed Tyrande's shoulder, grabbing the slender and sharp black spikes made of steel.

He said:

"There is void energy on it, and it will accelerate corrosion when encountering other magic powers. Take back the moon god's power! This thing can absorb other gods' power to strengthen its own destruction.

Bear with me, High Priest, it's going to hurt a little!

Malfurion, hold your wife down.

Don't let her move. "

After saying that, Blake wrapped his void power around the spike. Instead of pulling it out immediately, he first eliminated the void curse entangled with the life force of the High Priest of the Moon.

This process was very difficult. Tyrande held her husband's hand tightly and gritted her teeth not to make a sound.

Ten seconds later, Black looked at Tyrande who was pale, he blinked and said:

"I'll pull it out on the count of three, so be prepared. One"

"puff"

Before counting to three, the pirate pulled out the spike.

Tyrande's legs twitched suddenly, and the next moment she hugged the Archdruid tightly.

With a distressed look on his face, Malfurion urged the power of nature to heal his wife, and the moonlight shone down to help the Moon God's Chosen recover from his injuries.

She must be in pain.

But the pirates didn't mean to torture her.

He looked at the extremely light but extremely strong black tail nail in his hand. This thing shone orange in the pirate's hand, which showed how rare and powerful this thing was:

Name: Nail of Death

Quality: Legend·Creation Material [Void Enhancement]

Item effects:

When being forged into a weapon, it must have the entry "Ignore Divine Power", there is a high probability of having the entry "Void Poison", and there is a small chance of having the entry "Instant Death".

When it is forged into armor, it must have the entry [Thorns Aura], and it is highly likely to have the [Rancid Bee Swarm] entry.

Item description:

Princess Hahoran, who was loved by C'Thun, wandered over the ruins of Ahn'Qiraj, dreaming of meeting her sweetheart one day and giving birth to thousands of children for her.

If anyone disturbs her fantasy, the outcome must be death.

"I'm keeping this thing for my collection."

Black waved the Nail of Death in his hand and said something to Malfurion.

The archdruid raised his fingers to his mouth and made a silent movement. In his arms, his beautiful wife had fallen into a deep sleep due to weakness and severe pain.

Blake turned and glanced at the pool next to him.

The clear underground water is rare in the Silithus Desert, and in the water at this time, Ms. Tyrande's new pet was lying there healing its injuries.

As the queen of the Qiraji swarm, Princess Haholan does not have a too big and bloated body.

In fact, its size is small compared to other swarm lords.

This Queen Bug has a slender body like a bee, and the huge wings on its back will cover the wound, but you can see the bright patterns on the light wings, and the streamers like dust.

Its two pairs of sickle-like limbs are covered with scars, but the bright red sickle blade at the top still shines with the sheen of metal and void. The tail spike at the tail was just launched, and it almost took away the high priest of the moon. Life.

But it doesn't matter.

Its tail spike can still grow back and help Tyrande take away the lives of other enemies in the future.

Of course, as a noble princess, its head is decorated with red and green horns growing alternately, which really looks like a wild crown.

And Haholan's head is not as fierce and aggressive as other bugs. In fact, her big black eyes combined with her face make her look a little cute and honest after looking at her for a long time.

Especially the two black tentacles on the top of the head have looming dark halos, which makes it even more mysterious.

Overall, this queen bug is not ugly.

Although it is not as graceful as a bird should be, it must be spectacular when it flies, especially when it leads the swarm to fight for Tyrande and the elves. No matter how picky the elves are, they will write poems to praise its beauty. and powerful.

"It feels like Ms. Mothra"

Black rubbed his chin and made an accurate summary, then looked back at Tyrande who was sleeping. He pouted at Malfurion and made a "Follow me" expression.

Previously, the archdruid said that chatting would wait until after the war, but now the war is coming to an end. After Princess Haholan was tamed by Tyrande, most of the threat from the swarm has been eliminated.

It's time to talk about the past ten thousand years ago.
