Shadow Trails in Azeroth

Chapter 1742 110. Ding, there is a new reward order, please accept [Additional update 1520]

Emperor Denathrius was currently immersed in the joy that his eternal plan had finally been completed. He was also exceptionally tolerant of Black. After hearing the pirate's request, the Emperor waved his hand.

Tell him not to be formal and just say it.

Bosses always have more tolerance for capable subordinates.

"My noble Majesty, I know that with your long-term promotion, the force of death has far surpassed other force forces. Now that the order of the Shadow Realm has collapsed, it is an excellent opportunity for a passionate man like you to make contributions.

But I believe that you, who was born to be a great ruler, will never limit your sights to conquering the Shadow Kingdom with conspiracy and wisdom.

That's just the first step for you. "

By the lakeside of Mac'Aree, Black explained his thoughts to Emperor Denathrius in a very loyal manner.

He said with a hint of seriousness in his flattery:

"The entire Shadow Kingdom will come under your command, but that is only a staged victory. Under the premise that the Maw continues to eat souls, in order to satisfy your future citizens' thirst for anima, it is only a matter of time before they cross the curtain of life and death and march into the material world. .

I absolutely believe that you have a long-term and perfect plan for this matter.

My feeble wisdom does not dare to guess your plans, but I know that no matter what you think, the Dark Titan Sargeras is a big trouble that you cannot get around.

Whether he is conquering the material world, seizing souls and extracting anima, or leading the Death Force to complete the erosion and conquest of other realms, the cruel and ruthless Sargeras will become a serious problem for you, and he will not hand over his power so easily. , the Destroyer, who has become the supreme power among the stars, will mount a foolish resistance against you.

You need to take this into consideration. "

The pirate paused and looked at Denathrius' expression. The King of Pain's face was calm, showing that he was sure of victory.

But the pirate knew full well that He was just pretending.

The Death Eternals are at the same level as the Titans in the life hierarchy. They are also the supreme creations of the Force, but the same level does not mean the same power.

In fact, among the Eternals in the Shadow Realm, except for the mysterious "Exiled One", the combat power of the other Eternals is far worse than that of ordinary Titans, let alone fighting against Sargeras.

It can be seen from the fact that Aggramar kicked the Eternal Arbiter to pieces with his soul gesture, that these guys are not good at strength.

Of course, Emperor Denathrius could pretend that he had great advantages, but the pirates knew very well that once they faced Sargeras in the material world, these Eternals would die as many as they came.

They are also very aware of their disadvantages.

And Sargeras is a difficult enemy. His infinite power makes him an opponent that is difficult to defeat with conspiracy. He is really the enemy that conspirators like Emperor Denathrius are least willing to face.

In silence, Blake coughed a few times and said:

"I am willing to solve this trouble for you, of course, provided the price is right."

"Um?"

This sentence made Emperor Denathrius blink his eyes. It was obvious that he was interested. After taking a sip of blood wine, the emperor brushed his long white hair and asked:

"Price has never been an issue, I'm just curious, how will you complete the assassination of the Dark Titan? My servant.

I don’t want to hide it from you, this is very difficult even for me and my brothers and sisters.

Sargeras has exclusive authority over the evil force, which is famous for its destructive power and power among the stars. This makes him the most dangerous existence in the field of force. It’s not that I don’t believe in your ability, but I think there are limits to any conspiracy. .

To be honest, my original plan was to adopt a strategy of neglect. No matter how powerful Sargeras is, he is only an individual. He may be invincible, but the demons under his command are not like that.

I will continue to weaken His power until He becomes a miserable loner. In the material stars where the power of death is getting larger and larger, no matter how powerful He is, he cannot stop the rise of Death.

Until the end, He will drown alone in the Sea of ​​Death Stars with infinite power.

I can even allow Him to grow old quietly in time."

"What a brilliant plan!"

The pirate praised him, then changed the topic and said:

"But in this case, your great cause of conquest may be delayed for several epochs before it is finally completed. Although time is meaningless to the Eternals, this is a bit too delayed.

I have a faster and more harmless way here, which can not only help you deal with the threat of Sargeras, but can even help you complete the ultimate destruction of the arcane realm!

Those Titan Souls

Those cosmic souls rescued by me have nowhere to go. I will bring them back to Azeroth. I will convince them to work together with my help to open the ruins of the Pantheon at the final moment.

You know, that is the supreme realm of arcane force, and only there can the extremely violent Dark Titan be permanently sealed. Although Sargeras is the master of evil energy, he has the body of an alienated Titan, and he himself was born in the realm of arcane magic.

When the Titan Souls decide to sacrifice themselves, although they cannot defeat Sargeras, they can seal the endless scourge of this star forever.

In this way, the ruins of the Pantheon, the birthplace of the Dark Titan, will become Sargeras' prison. "

Blake spread his hands and said to the emperor who was listening carefully:

“In this way, the supreme creation in the arcane realm will die forever in the great sacrifice, and the master of the evil force will also lose his freedom.

You get rid of two troubles in one go.

Only the gods in the realms of Holy Light, Void and Life are left to deal with, and the best part is, I am your ‘three-faced spy’ planted in the realms of Void and Life.

As long as you need it, my lord.

I could launch a ruthless backstab at my colleagues and my Lord God at any time in the Sunless Sea and the Pantheon of Life, and I was willing to do so. "

"It's such a grand and wonderful conspiracy that it makes my whole body tremble. I haven't felt this way for a long time."

Emperor Denathius was obviously very satisfied with Blake's description, but he did not take the bait immediately. Instead, after taking a sip of wine, he asked in a playful tone:

"But why? Blake.

Although I have always known that you are a wonderful being who is as keen on intrigues as the Venthyr, the fact that you are so proactive about this kind of thing makes me deeply suspicious.

After all, these things don't seem to have many great rewards for you.

Have you changed your mind and finally begun to pursue pure chaos without caring about the benefits you can reap from it? "

"No, I can get benefits, but you didn't take into account the emotions I have as a living being, such as disgust, hatred, and revenge."

Blake lowered his head and touched the gorgeous gemstone ring in his hand that had no magical effect. He said:

"You know, I prayed to Lady Elune, and I was willing to give up my code of neutrality just to ask her to help me change the fate of my beloved wife.

She agreed, but she made a mistake.

After all, my dear wife is not in the Kingdom of the Moon God but a guest in your palace, right?

Without your secret help, my wife would have disappeared into thin air after she tried her best to save me from the disaster of the void, and would have completely left my life.

You know me, Your Majesty.

I am a very vulgar person.

I can sell my allies for sufficient profits, and I can also do terrible things for my reward, and what I hate most is those promises that have been made but cannot be redeemed.

Look, Your Majesty. "

The pirate stretched out his hand, and balls of moonlight danced on his fingertips. The dim moonlight lingered around Blake's moon shadow godhead, but made the very knowledgeable Emperor Denathrius blink his eyes.

The King of Pain made a pretentious voice, and he exclaimed in "shock":

"Oh my god, this godhead comes from an incomplete inheritance of power, from the irresponsible gift of power from a god, who didn't even plan the future for this power.

This is so inappropriate! "

"You have noticed, my lord, now can you understand the anger in my heart?"

Blake sneered and said:

"That ridiculous woman who lives in the middle of the moon and uses the moonlight as her symbol, after ruthlessly using me and causing me to almost lose my wife, took such an incomplete power that no one else even looked at as a 'reward' Throw it to me.

She is still expecting me to remain loyal to her.

She is not a good ruler, and she is far from being as generous as you. For such a black-hearted boss, I won't feel any guilt when betraying her.

After all, she was the one who felt sorry for me first.

But, Your Majesty, of course I am not doing this just for revenge.

An ambitious person like me will not allow myself to be inferior to others. Of course I cannot compete with you for the right to die. I just want a promise from you.

Amidst the power of death corroding the stars, please leave a place for life so that I can experience the feeling of harnessing and commanding the Force.

And my wife’s soul.

I want her to leave the Shadow Realm and return to the eternal kingdom of God that I created for her. "

"This can't be done!"

The emperor simply refused and said:

"As long as the curtain of life and death is stable, even I can't send a soul that has entered the shadow realm back to the material world."

"How should I put it? For a prophet, I don't believe there is anything impossible in this world! Especially for you."

Blake said stiffly:

“This is my request and your trouble.

If you want to see the fall of Sargeras, the fall of Luna, and the Sunless Sea opening the door for your legions of death, then send my wife back. "

"You're giving me a hard time, Blake."

The emperor made a gesture of "This is very difficult to handle." He thought for a moment, then looked at Blake and said:

“Of course, it’s not completely impossible.

If I can get the Winter Queen's Spirit Seed Greenhouse and gain control of the Resurrection Woodland, then I can spend a long time personally creating an anima body for Ms. Maiev, allowing her to resurrect in the material world as a Spirit Seed. .

But it's hard, Blake.

You are a prophet, you should know that I am not trying to raise the price on purpose, it is really difficult, and it is almost impossible to win the trust of that dull woman of the Winter Queen in the first place.

Let me just say this, she is an unreasonably resentful woman. "

"Hateful woman? Difficult?"

The pirate showed a sinister smile. He pulled out the Salamani sword with his backhand, rubbed the sharp blade in his hand, and said softly:

"If she didn't exist anymore"

"Huhu, you can always consider problems from an angle that others can't even imagine and come up with amazing and effective ideas to solve problems."

The emperor clapped his hands and said:

"Yes, no matter how difficult the person is, it won't be a big problem as long as he dies. We need an assassin, an assassin who can kill gods."

Denathrius's eyes fell on the Elven Divine Sword in Black's hand, and he said:

"That outstanding assassin also needs a weapon that can kill the god of death. It just so happens that another of my allies has such forging skills that are unparalleled among the stars.

I am happy to connect you with Him. The exquisite weapon in your hands has great potential. Black, my servant, let me help you complete it.

Just treat it as a deposit I paid in advance.

I promise, Blake, my minion uh, no, my friend, my collaborator. "

The Emperor drank the red wine in the wine glass in one gulp, threw the empty glass aside, opened his arms and showed the most charming smile, and said to Blake:

“I promise to let you and Ms. Maiev meet in the material world.

I can even fulfill my promise in advance. As long as you find an opportunity to come to the Shadow Realm, and we work together to kill the disgusting Winter Queen, I will personally reshape the body of the Anima for Ms. Maiev.

After you see my sincerity with your own eyes, I will invite you to do something really big again.

I will send a servant to send you the Mark of Venthyr, and then take your gorgeous weapons back to the Shadowlands. When you arrive here, we will begin the next heart-stirring grand conspiracy. "

"I look forward to it, Your Majesty."

Blake finally smiled and waved goodbye to the magic mirror in front of him, and the Emperor also politely said goodbye.

The next moment, the mirror reflecting each other, which was separated by countless worlds between them, shattered. The smile on the pirate's face was still bright, but there was undoubtedly something else in it.

In his mind, Lady Elune's depressed voice also sounded, and the moon god asked:

"Am I such a bad image in your eyes? Black, although I know very well that it was just your rhetoric to paralyze Emperor Denathrius, but have I really made you sad?"

"how could be?"

Blake kicked the stone under his feet, letting the stone fly into the lake in front of him and create several waves like floating water. He whispered:

"You will always be my first choice, my lady. Never cast any doubt on this conclusion. In front of Denathrius, I must show hatred.

A being like him doesn't believe in love, but he believes in the power of superstition and resentment. What a bastard.

By the way, about the Winter Queen."

The pirate asked:

"What is the relationship between you and her? There are rumors that you are sisters, but I don't think it is the case. The power gap between you is too big, sisters?

Oh, is she worthy? "

"We are indeed sisters, Blake, don't doubt that."

Elune explained:

"But our sisters do not refer to physical or blood connections. The way of life emphasizes the balance of life and death. I represent life, and she represents death. I represent prosperity, she represents withering, I represent spring, and she represents late autumn.

This is a symbolic connection.

As for the conflict between me and her

Perhaps it is because I love some lives too much that they have been unable to enter the cycle of life and death. This has affected the stability of Ardenweald, which is ruled by the Queen of Winter. In addition, the Aspect Dragons have recklessly exerted power on the night elves' World Tree. Eternal blessing, this incident greatly affected her senses towards me.

But don't worry, she's just sulking.

She is not as heartless as Denathrius describes her to be, although she does have a dull character. "

Luna paused and said:

"I know you have plans for everything, but don't kill her. This will lead to very serious consequences. Emperor Denathrius is using you. Although the order of death has been broken, the balance of life and death is still weakly connected. Between the Winter Queen and the realm of life.

once she dies

All this is irreversible. "

"No! She is not irreplaceable, ma'am."

Blake said firmly:

"The secret of the Eternals is more cruel than you think. The Queen of Winter dies, and the Eternals die. They have never been the key to the problem.

They are different from unique beings like you and Lord Sargeras.

They are all just pathetic consumables to maintain destiny! So if the Winter Queen disobeys, you'll have to pray for her fate.

The destiny set by the Firstborn for the Kingdom of Shadows is not as simple as Denathrius imagined. If he wants to overturn the destiny, what he has done now is still far from it.

So I decided to have another one-on-one game with Him and bet on each other’s lives! "
