Shadow Trails in Azeroth

The Pandaren's Cloud Serpents fly very fast. This snake-like drake is very good at traveling long distances.

Although their short-distance sprint speed is not as fast as that of the giant lizard-like dragons, when it comes to endurance, the larger and heavier dragons obviously cannot compare with the light and elegant Xianglong.

In addition, these auspicious beasts of Pandaria are born with the talent to move clouds and rain, allowing them to harness strong winds to accelerate, thus becoming one of the favorite vehicles for long-distance travelers.

However, no matter how powerful the Cloud Serpent is, there is no way it can cross the territory of Pandaria and the Troll Empire overnight. In this ancient period of 10,000 years ago, before the world collapsed, the area of ​​​​this ancient Kalimdor continent was But it's so huge that even the borders of the trolls and pandaren are far larger than what they would be 10,000 years ago.

Unless Yulong Tianzun personally "comes out" to be their mount, it would be impossible for Blake and his three "buddhists" to rely on Xianglong to quickly fly to the Elf Kingdom.

But fortunately, the pirates didn't plan to fly there in such a dusty way.

Although he does not have a "cheating artifact" like the Scepter of Sargeras, Black is already a god after all, and he has many good ways to cheat.

"Buzz"

Under the surprised gazes of Shaohao and the Monkey King, Blake, who had had enough of the stolen wine, moved his neck and opened a rotating "Emerald Door".

The crystal door surrounded by green smoke is full of a mysterious luster, and it leads to an incredible place at a glance.

As the best monk master, Emperor Shaohao was not a reckless guy. He did not trust the black-clothed prophet who descended from the sky, so he did not enter it immediately, but turned his head and looked at it carefully.

Following the Jade Gate, Shaohao could see an indescribable strange scene on the other side, like a reflection of the jade world in his eyes.

The quiet jungle is filled with the singing of birds, the fragrance of flowers and the sweet air. It is like a dream world. Just taking a look at it will make people feel relaxed.

But it is not a projection of the physical world.

Emperor Shaohao did not see any symbol of the mountainous terrain of the current Emerald Forest in the world opposite. It was a flat plain and a vast forest.

"This is.?"

The emperor turned around and asked.

Before he could finish his words, Blake, who was posing behind him, let out a weird scream and rushed over to kick his legs. Under the standard secret technique of the Rising Sun Kick, a huge force was added to his body, causing the chubby emperor to be kicked with a roar. Entering the rotating door in front of you.

Shaohao was kicked into the Emerald Dream as if he had fallen into water, with ripples appearing on the rotating door of the dream.

This means that His Majesty the Emperor's personal cultivation is very good, otherwise this kick would be enough to put Black on the target list of Pandaria's royal spies.

How disrespectful!

Should be killed!

"Are you going in by yourself? Or should I send you in?"

The pirate stretched his neck in relief, turned to look at the Monkey King beside him who had already grabbed Fu Zan's long stick. He grinned at the vigilant monkey and said:

"You are a weak demigod. The 'feel' of this kick is definitely better than that of Shaohao's round stick."

"What a crazy idiot!"

The hozen demigod was glared at by the pirate's malicious eyes, and the hair on his neck exploded.

Then the big monkey carefully evaluated the strength of both the enemy and ourselves. It felt that it might be "slightly disadvantaged" in front of this violent prophet in black.

In addition, Shaohao was kicked in. How could he, a demigod with such loyalty, leave his good brother alone?

"I'll go in by myself without your help."

The giant monkey snorted and cautiously used his treasured stick to probe into the Emerald Gate. After confirming that there was no danger on the other side, he jumped in wagging his tail.

The golden flying dragon brought over by Shaohao was also dragged by the little murloc to the Emerald Dream by its reins. As the well-informed leader of the Guala Guala pirate group, the little murloc is not afraid of emeralds. Dreamland.

It is a genuine Druid!

Entering the Emerald Dream feels like going home.

"Be careful when you go in."

Black warned the little fishman:

"Don't use druid spells randomly in there. At this time, Malfurion is still just a druid apprentice. Except for those demigods, no druid spells have been spread to other races.

If you mess around in there, it will be easily sensed by the green dragon in the dream.

Although he can be beaten down easily, now is not the time for those big slackers to appear. "

"Quack!"

The little fish man raised his paws, made a strange OK gesture, and then led the white dragon horse...er, dragged the candle dragon and jumped into the dreamland.

Blake was the only one left moving his body in the dark night. He looked back at the night sky.

The aura of the Supreme God is approaching.

I had previously conducted an "emergency brainwashing" on the four of them, adding some non-existent memories to their minds. When Shaohao returned to Pandaria, those memories would be activated and help Shaohao complete the "Seven Evil Trials" ” filler for this great story.

"Ah, only when you really enter here will you find that the shaping of this destiny is really too fragile."

Blake flexed his fingers and complained:

"I really want to take the four of you to the Elf Empire to make a big fuss and see if Archimonde can break the neck of Black Bull Niuzao, but reality really doesn't allow it.

It's risky to bring Shaohao there. If I bring the four of you with me, I'm afraid the whole history will be rewritten. If one of them doesn't play well, I'll be dead.

Even gods must be born in the conflicts of history

So many restrictions are really enough!

It's like stealing something while wearing shackles, it's so annoying! "

After complaining, before the four gods arrived, the pirate swooped into the Emerald Dream, and the door shrank to a bright green light spot in an instant.

But the moment it completely dissipated, time in the entire Emerald Forest quietly stopped.

The children playing in the Tianchanyuan jumped up and stopped in mid-air. The smiles on their furry faces also froze. The wind in the entire mountain forest stopped blowing, and the Jadelong Tianzun in the wind was frozen in place like a photo.

time!

Time was instantly frozen by a force, and a tall figure appeared in the place where Blake disappeared. He had a resolute elf face, blond hair and golden eyes. The most peculiar thing was that there was a dragon-shaped shoulder armor on his shoulder. A delicate hourglass.

The hourglass kept sloping down the khaki quicksand, but the sand in the upper part did not decrease.

"The Destined Future Visitor"

The Bronze Dragon King Nozdormu who came here frowned. He touched his well-groomed beard and looked around with wide eyes, trying to capture the remaining breath of those "future visitors".

But no matter how he sensed it, there was no breath left.

The Time Dragon King even used time retrieval, but the time magic that could retrace all events failed. It was like there was an unknown "interference source", making it impossible for time magic to take effect here.

"Is this... time uniqueness?"

The Time Dragon King's eyes widened, and his fingers inadvertently pulled off his treasured beard, but he didn't notice it. He just looked at the quicksand light that dissipated on the spot because it could not take effect in shock.

These lights proved something terrible.

A "behemoth" that exceeds the limit of the time network is sent to this era is like an elephant being stuffed into a refrigerator.

As long as the elephant struggles a little, the entire refrigerator will collapse in an instant.

"Nonsense!"

Nozdormu cursed angrily.

He looked at the sky and said in a deep voice:

"This is definitely not a time travel planned by the Bronze Dragon Legion. It is too dangerous. That abnormal existence has the power to shatter the entire time network. Titan, what on earth did the madmen from the future send here?

Most importantly, why do they do this?

No, I have to go and take a look ten thousand years later. "

Before he finished speaking, the figure of the Time Dragon King disappeared into the khaki quicksand, but the next moment, he reappeared with a pale face.

That expression of seeing a ghost proved that something happened ten thousand years later that shocked even Nozdormu.

"The branch of time. The chaotic future of the abandoned sandbox of the Circle of Destiny beyond the perfect blueprint. Ah, it turns out that it is like this. The second branch of destiny beyond the perfect blueprint is unlocked. The endless torture and war will be quelled by this.

Great, I gradually understood everything.

This is awesome. "

The expression of the Dragon King of Time changed rapidly, and the expressions full of worry, confusion, expectation and anxiety were constantly superimposed and finally turned into the same calmness and silence as before.

He had a glimpse of the future.

This is normal for bronze dragons, but this time Nozdormu "really" saw the future.

He thought about it for several minutes, and finally decided to stand still. He would break the rules for the first time after his birth and pretend that this time travel did not exist.

He must meet the mysterious thing from the future.

but not now.

The Dragon King burst into laughter, and just like when he came, he disappeared into the night sky when the frozen time resumed flowing.

——

"Ah sneeze!"

Blake, who was walking forward with his "new friends" in the Emerald Dream, suddenly sneezed, startling Shaohao and the Monkey King who were alert behind him.

The little fishman looked at Blake who was rubbing his nose in surprise. He took out a handkerchief from an unknown place from his bag and handed it to the boss flatteringly, but Blake politely refused.

"Someone found me."

The pirate curled his lips and said:

"Probably that annoying guy I've never seen before. Ha, these time walkers are really annoying."

"how do you know?"

Shaohao asked in a low voice, Blake glanced at him and said:

"This is an instinct from the gods. You won't understand it even if I tell you. I'm happy to share it, but for the sake of your head, it's best not to ask."

"There's something ahead!"

The Monkey King propped his lucky stick on the ground, coiled himself on the top of the stick like climbing a tree, put his hands above his eyes and looked forward, and said to the people around him:

"It's a tree! A huge tree! There are birds flying around on the tree."

"Mother tree Garnier?"

Blake expanded his perception outwards, and soon felt a demigod force entrenched in front of him. That force was full of interpretations of "storm", "sky" and "wings".

In the eyes of today's Pirate Pirates, such obscure power is almost obvious at a glance. The world has become very clear before his eyes as he pursues the truth, and it is very possible that the fog of ignorance blocks his exploration.

"It's Aviana, the Mother of Birds, and her precious tree."

The pirate rubbed his chin and squinted his eyes, looking at the dream scenery around him. He said:

"Is that thing here? No wonder I couldn't find its destroyed remains in the Emerald Dream."

"That wild demigod lives in Pandaria's dream?"

Shaohao said in surprise:

"But why didn't we find her?"

"This is not Pandaria, my emperor. The mapping relationship between dreams and reality is very complicated, especially the Emerald Dream left by the Creator Titan.

This is a 'layered network' woven by Norgannon himself. "

Blake shook his head and explained:

“Everything is out of order here.

Unless you can find some kind of routine, wandering around will just make you lose yourself in it. If we broke the dream from here, we would probably fall directly to the peak of Mount Hyjal.

Although it is closer to the core area of ​​the Elf Empire, unfortunately that is not my destination.

You guys wait here, I'll go say 'hi'. "

The pirate warned the others and disappeared in front of everyone. The Pandaren Emperor looked around vigilantly at the bright and peaceful forest around him. He wanted to take a step to take a look in the nearby forest, but was grabbed by his good brother the Monkey King.

Da Mahou, who has always behaved chaotically and pursued fun, was very serious at this moment. He said to Shaohao:

"Don't wander around. What that guy said is right. Although this is my first time entering the Emerald Dream, the perception from the demigods is telling me that once you get lost here, you will never be able to return to the material world."

"Quack!"

The little fish man also grabbed his dung fork and stood in front of Shaohao, preventing the master from leaving the circle drawn by the second senior brother.

It pointed at the forest wind with green light spots lingering in the distance with its big eyes, took out a wine bottle from its bag and threw it in front of the Pandaren Emperor.

Under Shaohao's wide-eyed gaze, the wine bottle disappeared into the wind in the forest with a whoosh.

This made Shaohao frown.

dream

It is truly an unknown territory for mortals.

"Whoosh"

Blake, who had just disappeared, reappeared in front of everyone. This guy had many strange and strange treasures on his body. He even had a talisman made of bird claws hanging around his neck and a fresh branch that had just been cut down on his back.

This doesn't look like reconnaissance at all!

This is to go to the demigod's lair to "restock".

He threw the bird eggs in his arms to the little murloc, then grabbed a handful of bright white bird feathers filled with storms, and gave them to Shaohao and the Monkey King as gifts.

He said happily:

"Come on, come on, you're welcome, take them all, this is a pirate's rule, everyone who sees you has a share."

"What did you do?"

Shaohao stared at the Demigod Feather in his hand with wide eyes and asked in a strange tone. Blake rolled his eyes and grinned:

"Of course I'm helping Ms. Aviana tidy up her messy lair. It's not okay for a demigod lady to have such a messy boudoir. This is free housekeeping. She will thank me when she comes back."

"Gah!"

A piercing scream sounded in the dreamland in front of everyone, and the scream was full of anger after having their home stolen.

This dreamland suddenly changed from peaceful to dangerous. The biting wind began to blow in the forest. Countless birds flapped their wings and flew from the giant trees in front, flying out in all directions to find their owners. That shameful egg thief.

"Look, she's thanking me."

The pirate laughed and said to the shocked people around him:

"Calm down, calm down, it's just a bad joke. Come on, let's get out of here before you are poked into a sieve by the angry mother of birds.

I remember that Ursock and Ursol’s bear-head den was not far from the mother tree. We didn’t even need to take a detour. We went to help the two bears tidy up their messy home.

I don't believe it.

The bear's nest in reality is so poor that it has nothing. Could it be that the shrine in the dream can't squeeze out a few ounces of oil? It's not okay for lazy demigods to just fall asleep in their dreams.

Sleeping for a long time is not good for the body. They need to get up and 'move around', oh, I mean, warm up."
