Shadow Trails in Azeroth

"Back up! Quick! Back up!"

On the stairs made of magic steel in the terminal dock, Nathanos was pulling his elf girlfriend back and running wildly. As he ran, he waved his arms to his companions who were trying to assassinate the chaotic demon. .

The former Ranger General was somewhat unseemly, as he seemed to be escaping from some imminent danger.

He shouted to the assassins:

"Go into the house! A portal has been opened in the back!"

The two orc assassins who were preparing to "work" below heard the warning from the human rangers, but the two guys dismissed it. Isn't it just a demon portal, and some fierce demons will rush out from the door? ?

What's there to be afraid of?

The land of Argus lacks everything except these portals that can be opened at any time and ferocious demons, okay?

This Nathanos is so stupid!

Chief Red is right, humans are all cowards, hahahaha!

But the next second, the two fierce and arrogant orcs Uncrowded knew that they were wrong. What Nathanos was warning about was not some damn demonic portal.

In front of their eyes, a green light spot that was too bright to be ignored flashed away, and then a huge evil portal rotated open in the broken space of the terminal dock.

The size of that thing is so huge that it can swallow a mountain, almost hundreds of times larger than an ordinary portal.

This is normal. Such evil energy portals are used by demon fleets, and are often only used in war missions that require fleets to dispatch urgently and deploy quickly.

It can quickly send a demon fleet to a predetermined coordinate point among the stars, eliminating the time wasted by the fleet trekking among the stars.

Generally speaking, fleet portals with precise coordinates are open in both directions. There is not much risk in opening such a portal between two star ports. This is something the Burning Legion has mastered over tens of thousands of years of destruction. Technology.

But this one is different now!

Because Argus was pulled into the Draenor star field by Illidan using the Sargrit Keystone, all connections between this demon world and other Burning Legion homeports were severed, and the original star map could not be used.

When this portal is opened, there is no corresponding coordinate response at all on the opposite side. It is opened in one direction at a coordinate where no one knows what the hell the opposite place is.

This is a serious violation of the Burning Legion's mechanical creation regulations set by Lord Kingaros and dereliction of duty!

It did have quite serious consequences.

It's a pity that no knowledgeable devil can stop this dangerous behavior.

Nathanos had already taken Shiva and hid in the nearest building, but the two of them could still feel a terrifying attraction being exerted on the entire dock.

Just like a giant whale devouring a school of fish in the sea, the invisible energy tide is pushing all the unfixed individuals in the dock to rush towards the opened fleet-level portal.

The two orc assassins screamed and were pushed into the air, like branches that were blown off in a storm and could only drift with the waves.

One of them fixed his hand on the nearest magic steel railing, and the other grabbed the leg of the previous guy and let out a piercing scream in the wind swallowed by the portal.

The short-statured Gangerg demon technicians beside the two of them were swirling like sand in the wind. They were pulled towards the giant portal that was opened behind them with horrified shouts. Even the big and round demon guards were blown in uncontrollably. in the air.

The moment this huge chaotic portal was opened, it began to engulf everything around it. The demons flying around the shipyard simply could not resist this attraction.

The moment it was blown up, it disappeared into the rotating portal.

The terrifying thing is still continuously absorbing the surrounding evil energy and expanding rapidly, like an abyss opening leading to an unknown place.

Those huge and out-of-control starships were pulled and submerged into it, like dark green trapezoidal chocolate being swallowed bit by bit by the big mouth of a naughty child.

The demon starship cruising nearby wanted to escape when it saw that the situation was bad, but the thrust of the small starship could not withstand the swallowing pull of the fleet portal that suddenly opened.

Even Blake, who was strolling around the dock, could see that those spaceships were working really hard, but they were still being pulled into the rotating portal bit by bit in the difficult tug-of-war.

"Look, if our midnight battle plan succeeds, it should be like this."

As if taking root on the ground, the pirate standing firmly on the floor of the dock boasted to Maiev, who tied herself and Blake tightly with chains next to her:

“The space structure of this shipyard is too fragmented, which is destined to trigger such a space storm once an out-of-control portal is opened here.

But what we need to do with a demonic artifact and a group of star saints to help, two undistinguished bastards can easily do it with their own hands and their talents.

That’s what I said.

Every life in this world has its own use, and we should have a pair of eyes that can discover outstanding talents. So, you have to apologize for my brilliant plan.

Tonight, I'm waiting for you in the cabin.

Just think of it as a celebration of victory, my dear Maiev, dance a passionate dance for me alone. "

The Pirate Pirate boasted like this, then raised his foot and rubbed it hard against the claws of an angry guard next to him who was clinging to the edge railing to prevent himself from being swallowed by the portal.

The ferocious demon roared crazily at Black, but the pirate just stared at it with a "gentle and elegant" look, then twisted his feet and increased the force of his boots.

A few seconds later, the demon loosened its claws in pain and swirled around with a crazy curse on Black. In extreme despair, it was thrown towards the increasingly larger portal behind it.

It and many of its compatriots were like pebbles falling into the water, falling into the light curtain of the rotating evil energy portal, causing dangerous ripples.

"This dock is finished."

Ms. Maiev looked around and said to the pirate next to her with a sense of relief that the task was completed:

"Even if a few ships barely escape, they will not be able to deal a serious blow to the coalition's ground forces. They have lost their home port and cannot receive supplies. If one ship is destroyed, there will be one less ship.

But I always feel that Brian and Zhou Zhuo's sabotage operation went a little too smoothly. I still don't think that two helpless explorers can do such a shocking thing under the eyes of tens of thousands of demons. .

Are you secretly helping them?

Just to prove your vision to me? Just so I can give you a solo victory dance tonight? "

"You sure know how to joke, my lady."

The pirate laughed, reached out and flicked Maiev's helmet, and said:

"They do this kind of thing all by talent. My role in it is minimal, but if you think about it safely, let these two guys take the next spaceship back to Draenor."

Blake looked at the growing evil energy portal in front of him. After swallowing several starships in succession, its size had expanded to almost the same size as the entire dock.

The storm it caused in this space-shattered place has begun to affect the structure of the already unstable earth near the terminal dock. Large swaths of gravel were peeled off from the mountain and pulled toward the portal body as if they were weightless.

It is about to evolve from an uncontrollable chaotic portal into a dangerous fel space storm that is about to sweep through a small half of the Antolan wasteland.

The pirate assessed the destructive power of this thing, curled his lips and whispered:

"This dying world can no longer bear the destruction caused by the two of them continuing to act as monsters. Let us be merciful and give Argus a final chance to exit with dignity.

Nothing noteworthy here.

Plant the last batch of bombs.

Let's withdraw! "

Blake's order was quickly given.

In the process of the rapid evolution of the dangerous out-of-control portal, Uncrowned Ones and official Assassins and Hunters of all races placed Titan bombs in every corner of the terminal dock under pressure.

The pirates and Maiev personally went to the control tower full of demons to take out Brian who was scared to death and Zhou Zhuo who was already unconscious. They also blew up the huge control tower and threw all the demons in it into the spread. in the space storm.

As the huge fire exploded in the space storm that swept everything, the Burning Legion's most important military facility in the Antolan Wasteland was destroyed.

But to be precise, before these bombs were detonated, the demon fleet in Kil'jaeden's hands had been thrown into the corners of the stars by the out-of-control space storm.

The end result of the Assassins and Hunters was just to help them get rid of the shipyard itself that had no significance, so that the Burning Legion could spend a lot of money to rebuild a new one in the future.

The demon starships that were thrown into the stars were not seriously damaged, and the pilots and demon soldiers among them were not even injured.

They also have strong combat capabilities.

But the problem is that by the time they trek back to Argus from the stars, the battle here will be over long ago, and even the Burning Throne is probably in ruins.

From this point of view, Brian and Zhou Zhuo's extraordinary performance today actually saved the lives of these demons.

So, come on! Demons!

Get in line, say thank you to Brother Bu and Brother Zhou, and buy some alien melon seeds for Mr. Blake Shaw who can feast his eyes tonight.

——

"Papa pa pa"

When Zhou Zhuo, who was seriously injured, woke up from a coma, he heard strange applause from beside him before he opened his eyes.

Lorewalker felt pain all over his body, but the pain was a good thing.

This proves that he is still alive, and dead people probably can't feel pain.

Zhou Zhuo also felt something wet licking his furry cheek. He tried to open his eyes and saw the bandaged Master Mi lying next to him, blinking and staring at him.

Not far from the hospital bed, Blake, the pirate, was putting down the wine glass in his hand, sitting on a chair and applauding. The trio of warlocks behind him also winked and applauded.

It seems to be a way to express gratitude and praise to the great warrior Zhou Zhuo who single-handedly defeated the demon fleet.

"Oh, you old Zhou is so clumsy. He slept for three days after being rescued!"

Old Brian's broken gong voice sounded in front of Zhou Zhuo's head.

The old dwarf in a hospital gown was sneaking away from the fierce Draenei nurses, holding a small wine bottle and leaning on the Lorewalker's bed to wink at him.

He boasted with the arrogance a dwarf should have:

"I only fell into coma after walking back on my own! After we teamed up to destroy the devil's dock, I got a hero's welcome when I came back. They gave me a lot of fine wine, but it's a pity that I can't drink it now.

Never mind, we'll have a good drink in Ironforge when you're better, my brother. "

While the old dwarf was bragging about himself, his pet monkey was lying on Brian's shoulder, squeaking and barking at Zhou Zhuo, as if it was also happy about Zhou Zhuo's awakening.

The monkey's tail was comically covered with bandages, and it looked like it was seriously injured.

"Tsk, tsk, who hid and changed pants immediately after being rescued?"

Black, who didn't want to see other people's kindness, picked up a glass of wine and said in a long voice:

"Who had a nightmare the night after you came back, and in the end you had to beg a Draenei nurse to stay with you so you could sleep peacefully?

Ha, Brian, all your embarrassing things have been recorded by Little Star. She will write all your embarrassing stories in her autobiography, so you can become famous all over the world. "

"Shut up, you are responsible for most of the fright I received!"

The old dwarf blew his beard and said with eyes:

"You bastard has a mind-controlled demon and you're hiding to scare me. If you had told me you were there, I wouldn't be so scared. Damn it, I'm an explorer, a qualified archaeologist and historian, not Your soldiers!

I will never do such dangerous things for you again. "

"Yes, yes, you are civilians and should not be involved in the war, although you two have accomplished great things that required thousands of soldiers to sacrifice their lives.

But I'm still happy to announce it to you.

Ahem, you two, your short service career is over. "

Blake took a sip of wine, stood up, took the two boxes from Xie Yan, and threw them on Lao Zhou's hospital bed. He said:

"Now is a war period, and we don't have time to issue glory to you, so take two medals back first. After the war is over, the high command will replace them for you.

The Exodar will return to Draenor in a moment. You two need to follow the ship back to the rear. You can also follow the wounded directly back to Azeroth. No one will stop you.

After all, you are now well-known war heroes in the anti-demon coalition.

But I estimate that the Burning Legion will issue a high bounty to the two of you in the stars, so be careful no matter what you do in the future.

If you need bodyguard services, the Uncrowned One is willing to take the job. "

"ah?"

Brian picked up his medal made of magic steel and demon bones and looked at it carefully. He said in surprise:

"Don't the Uncrowned Ones never accept escort missions?"

"We won't answer."

Blake curled his lips, blew out a smoke ring, and said:

"But we are willing to make allowances for those special people, especially when we are monitoring you two not to mess with anything dangerous.

The energy spent on assigning a few old assassins who are about to retire to watch over you is much less expensive than the manpower and material resources needed to deal with the mess you left behind.

This is something that several commanders have warned me privately. They now have an intuitive understanding of the 'destructive power' of you two.

Okay, let’s not disturb the two heroes’ rest. "

The pirate quickly walked out of the field hospital built in Port Hope with his three henchmen, and after watching them leave, Brian threw his medal to his pet monkey with a smile.

He turned to Lao Zhou who was looking at him and said:

"Okay, people are starting to drive people away. It's better for us two 'dangerous people' to stop staying in this dangerous place and give the Burning Legion a chance.

Let's go back to Draenor.

I remember that there happened to be the ruins of the capital of the Ogre Empire there, and I heard that the Pointy Ears found great magical knowledge there.

We should also go there for a walk.

Why do you keep staring at the wine in my hand? Hey, seriously injured people can't drink. I don't want to be scolded by those hoof girls anymore. "

"One mouthful, just one mouthful! My throat is about to smoke. It's just a mouthful of wine. I am a war hero who destroyed demons. I think I have this power."

Lao Zhou prayed, and Brian looked around, then carefully handed the wine bottle in his hand to Lao Zhou's mouth. A few seconds later, the door of the ward was kicked open by the fierce little nurse Delaney.

She wagged her tail and screamed:

"Brian! Zhou Zhuo! You two are secretly drinking again! How can two war heroes be like naughty children! Do you still want to be discharged from the hospital? Assholes.

Now, go back to your ward and pack your things, you two are about to be transferred. "
