Shadow Trails in Azeroth

It is still Bwonsamdi's palace in the other world. The old troll has gone to the forest to supervise the group of lonely loas to do their jobs well. General Draven, who can fly, is soaring high in the forest in the other world, relying on his own strength. Because the stone descendants do not have life fluctuations in the conventional sense and will not be detected by detection magic, they shoulder the heavy responsibility of sentinels.

The two or five men sent by Black had already returned to the Queen's command and were ready to work at the right time, exerting the destructive power that traitors should have. Only Black and his little fishmen were left in the huge palace of the underworld.

And his little murloc pet.

Of course, there is also an army of troll heroes gathered by Bwonsamdi.

These souls, which have been collected and cared for by Bwonsamdi very carefully since the birth of the first troll dynasty, are the condensed "essence" of nearly 20,000 years of troll civilization.

Any soldier pulled out of the army of nearly three thousand people is a famous chief or prophet in the history of the troll tribe. The five leaders who command the army are gold medals who have left great deeds in the history of the trolls. King of.

And the commander-in-chief Bwonsamdi left for this army was a guy who had a relationship with Black.

The first king of the Zandalari Golden Dynasty, he led the Zandalari trolls to escape from the blood plague of Nazmir and established the golden city of Zuldazar in Dazar'alor. The emperor of Zuldazar was revered as the "First Emperor".

"I met you ten thousand years ago!"

Blake looked at the troll emperor in front of him who was riding an armored ancestral raptor and had a fierce hunting raptor as a pet. He wore a majestic crown and carried a beheading blade. He blinked and stretched out his hand to him and said :

"In your city, I chatted with your first generation Zul. Although I didn't formally go to the court to meet him, my friend Shaohao brought you a prophecy."

"Yes, Black Prophet, I remember that vividly."

The First Emperor Dasa was not a arrogant troll spirit. In other words, he was indeed arrogant, but he knew how to show humility in front of the nobles.

This alone is much better than Queen Azshara.

Among the three emperors from ten thousand years ago, she was the one with the biggest crotch, but the sweet-smelling and soft queen always got more understanding. Who wants her to be a girl?

"The prophecy you left behind was conveyed to me by Zul. I have been acting in accordance with this prophecy in the thousand years before my death. From the echoes in the material world, I learned that the empire I left behind prospered and eventually He had accumulated enough strength to survive the demon's attack until now.

If a divided troll civilization exists in the world, then we will definitely drink in hatred under the power of the devil.

And all this glory is due to you.

Sir the Silent One. "

The First Emperor Dasa rode on his raptor and bowed to Black. His sincere words made Lord Evil God very satisfied. He looked at the great soul in front of him.

After thinking for a few seconds, he said:

"Bwonsamdi collected you troll giants in the other world, and gave you the glory after death just to satisfy his shameful collecting habit. An outstanding soul like you should accept a more harsh and greater test.

I mean, you know I came to Ardenweald to restart the cycle of life and death. Maybe you'd like to be one of the first troll souls to return to the material world.

Your life is great enough, but you can also try to do it again in a new era, try to break through yourself and do something more worthy of remembering. "

Black rubbed his chin and stopped talking. After giving Daza enough time to think, he continued:

"Of course, you can also stay with Bwonsamdi. After that bastard takes over the spiritual seed greenhouse, his soul power will definitely be further enhanced.

Although it is still impossible to cross the boundaries of gods, after devouring Mu'ezala's power, he will become the overlord of Loa.

You can follow the light and drink soup or something to become his loa god. I remember that for trolls, this is also a rare honor. "

"Relive a new life, or become a member of all spirits?"

The First Emperor Dasa said with a serious face:

"It's really a difficult choice. No matter which one has an inescapable attraction for me, please allow me to think about it, Silent One. In the face of such a favor, I must take some time to think about it."

"Of course, I'm always generous to great souls."

The pirate waved his hand, indicating that Dasa could retreat. He said:

"But this answer can only be revealed after we occupy the heart of the forest. I hope you will fight this battle with all your heart and strive for glory for the trolls in the world after death."

"I will give everything I have for it!"

Dasa laughed loudly, raised his left hand and shouted:

"Waging war against an eternal being who is in charge of death and rebirth is the most ambitious undertaking I can do in life and after death. Who would refuse such an honor?"

He turned and left, leaving the conversation space to Black, the little fish man, and Lady Moonberry flying around beside the little fish man.

"Damn it? Just tell me if you have anything to say!"

Blake glanced at his little fish-man impatiently. It was really annoying that this bastard came slowly and pretended to be timid.

The pirate kicked him, causing the little fishman to wave his claws and croak a few times.

"Um?"

Blake blinked, looked at the little fish man and the big fairy Moonberry hiding behind him, and said:

"You said, you have a way to allow me and my army to enter the heart of the forest without alerting the defenders? Is there such a good thing?"

"some."

Lady Moonberry boldly said to Black:

"Few people know, but there is indeed a magical and mysterious 'Mushroom Net' in the Royal Court of Charming Night. It was made and maintained by an ancient Faye Elder in the Arden Fairyland. Only those souls recognized by the Queen or Only the spirits accepted by the Court of Faye are eligible to use the mushroom net in the fairyland for fast travel."

"Huh? Mushroom net?"

Blake blinked, pretending he didn't know anything and mockingly said:

"It's such a nostalgic name. You Faye guys are really good at joking that homophones mean you'll get paid, bastard! Don't think that just because you're cute, you can do whatever you want.

Let’s talk about this mushroom network in detail. "

"Well, that elder Faye is called Malasmus, and he is the 'King of Mushrooms' in the entire Arden Fairyland. When the forest is prosperous, he acts as the queen's eyes and ears to monitor the forest.

As long as there are mushrooms, everything that happens in the place cannot be hidden from the attention of Elder Malasmus. "

Lady Moonberry flapped her wings helplessly and explained to Blake, who pretended to be a "newcomer":

“But since the scourge of anima deficiency swept through the fairyland, Malasmuse’s mushroom circle has languished a lot, and he asked the queen several times for more anima.

But because the Mushroom Network was not necessary for Ardenweald, the Queen rejected his request.

This caused Malasmus to lose a lot of mushrooms, and it also made him feel discouraged and hid in his underground lair. I can help you find Malasmus and ask him to help you get there. Into the heart of the forest.

This allows you to bypass the defenses of the Wild Hunt and Veil Wanderer dragons, allowing you to end the battle faster.

But I have two requests! "

The big goblin was obviously afraid of Black, the gloomy evil god, but she still had the courage to flutter her wings and raise her two claws towards Black. This request made the pirate narrow his eyes and rub his chin for a moment to think.

Then the evil god laughed, waved his hands and showed a false enthusiasm of "As long as you serve me, we are all brothers", and promised:

"The consequences for ordinary people who dare to make requests in front of me are destined to be miserable, but considering that you are my little fishman's most beloved pet, I will give you some face.

Tell me, what are your requirements? "

"First, Malasmus is a weird Night Fae Mushroom. If I want to convince him, I must make a promise to him."

Moonberry waved her hands seriously and said to Blake:

"So, you must promise to provide Elder Mushroom with enough hearts after taking control of Ardenweald to allow him to restore his Mushroom Net. He is a hateful guy who likes to peek and eavesdrop. He will not agree to it unless he meets his demands. of."

"no problem."

Blake snapped his fingers and said:

"Only a fool like the Winter Queen would ignore a powerful Faye who can monitor the entire country. If it were me, I would rather the Royal Court of the Heart of the Forest wither and provide Elder Mushroom with sufficient anima.

If he is still operating now, Bwonsamdi and I's little conspiracy will definitely not be hidden from the queen.

anything else? "

"And that's it."

Lady Moonberry took a deep breath, encouraged herself and said:

"I can help you lure away the goblin elders who are protecting the queen, but you must promise me that you cannot kill the queen! You can overthrow her rule or even exile her, but you cannot harm the queen's existence.

Although the Queen is clumsy and a cold and unsociable person, she is kind-hearted and treats Faye very well. We are willing to be loyal to her not only because the Queen is naturally noble.

She deserves our allegiance! "

"Huh? You said she was kind-hearted? I think those Loa who were sacrificed by her have different opinions on this."

Blake winked and said in a pleasant tone:

"Besides, the fight hasn't even started yet. As one of the elders of Meiye Royal Court, are you sure that your queen will lose?

Not necessarily, she still has a powerful Wild Hunting Group, and controls the most powerful flying creation in the Shadow Realm, the Curtain Wanderers, as well as a group of Immortal Wood Spirit Sect Masters who are as powerful as the fortress after taking root.

I heard that the queen also has a powerful wild demigod who is willing to stay in Ardenweald as a pet, and those ingenious and very intelligent Sylvain also obey her.

She can also control the power of Ardenweald to defeat her enemies.

No matter how you look at it, the Winter Queen can say ‘I have the advantage’. Why do you think she will fail? To tell you the truth, I am actually not sure of winning."

"Quack"

When Blake said that he was not sure of winning, the little fish man couldn't hold back anymore. He barked twice and felt that his owner was a little too shameless.

If he was willing to go all out to cause a massacre in Ardenweald, relying on his secret anima skill, Shadow of the Dark Empire, would be enough for him to overturn most of Ardenweald alone.

When the time comes, Bwonsamdi and the Loa will be dancing, singing, etc., and they might be able to harvest a kingdom of death filled with corpses.

"I don't know why I have such thoughts."

Lady Moonberry covered her face and let out a weak moan. She flapped her wings and said dejectedly:

"But after having been in contact with you for a long time, especially after seeing you use sweet words to say that Old Hu En and Sirnax became your subordinates, I feel more and more that Her Majesty the Queen's chances of winning are slim.

I never thought my queen could be so stupid before

She is too simple, Ardenweald has always been a peaceful place.

We are not as warlike and violent as Maldraxxus, nor are we as proficient in conspiracy as Revendreth, and we do not have the ability of Ascension Bastion to mass-produce war weapons. We have never been warriors of the Shadow Realm.

Nor should we be warriors.

The Queen is prepared to resort to war when faced with a crisis. This sounds okay, but it is precisely the biggest problem. We should not seek to use warrior methods to solve disasters.

From this point of view, the Queen may have taken the wrong path from the beginning. "

"Well, although you flatter me and make me happy, I still won't agree to your request if you don't speak honestly. You cunning goblin, you actually tried to deceive a void god?"

Blake snorted and said:

"Tell the truth! Otherwise the negotiations will break down."

"Well."

Lord Moonberry snorted angrily. She raised her head, showing the look of an unruly and naughty fairy. She pursed her lips and said impolitely:

"Okay, I'll tell you the truth.

The Queen is not an Eternal who is good at fighting. Her combat power should be about the same as that of Muezala. Even if she is stronger, it is limited. I heard the stupid little fish man say that you are the most powerful assassin in the material stars.

I guess the queen can't escape your assassination.

Instead of seeing the queen die inexplicably, why don't I try my best to save her life, and the rest is just the truth, actually."

The big goblin looked around and whispered:

"I'm also quite dissatisfied with the current situation in Ardenweald. The queen has made the lively forest a mess, and even our favorite Faye stage show has been stopped. This is really upsetting."

"That's right."

Blake grinned, snapped his fingers and said:

"Honest conversation leads to sincerity. Dear Lord Moonberry, I agree to your request. Then I will give you half a day to contact Elder Malasmus. Is that enough?"

"That must be enough."

Yueberry rolled her cute eyes, flew to the edge of the platform and grabbed a strange purple mushroom in her hand. She shook it a few times like a bell, and then an old and dull voice came from it. Rings:

"That's enough! Yueberry, put down my mushroom! This is my 1,317th favorite mushroom, and you almost destroyed it! Oh, who is this majestic evil god?

Is there a distinguished guest in Ardenweald?

I was so slow that I didn't realize it."

"Okay, Malasmus, stop pretending. This guy is the smartest conspirator among the material stars. You can't hide your acting skills from Him."

Moonberry shook the mushroom in her hand and said sharply:

"Did you hear what we just said? Are you willing to help them? Although I doubt that they will bring stability to Ardenweald after overthrowing the Queen's rule.

But honestly, we have no other choice, especially not you. "

The old mushroom fell silent. After a few seconds, he sighed like a real old man and said in a low tone:

"My mushrooms are wilting every day, and my children are crying every day. I don't resent the Queen's decision, but I know there are better ways to deal with it.

I can help you, Lord Evil God, but I have a question. "

it says:

"The queen doesn't know who her enemy is, so she's at a loss. Do you know what you're going to do after taking control of the Fairyland?"

"Aren't you talking nonsense?"

The pirate said rudely:

"I was secretly pushing your queen to fall into this state. I can bring her and the entire Arden Fairyland into such chaos, so naturally I have enough ability to bring order to the chaos.

I know what you are worried about. Forest spirits who cannot fight and hate fighting, I promise you that this disaster will not affect you and this forest.

Both He and you are very important to the next age. "

"Well, then I'm fine."

Lao Mushroom is also a straightforward and decisive guy.

Old men are always like this. After experiencing enough time and enough things, they can always condense their own ancient wisdom.

It is not as forward-thinking as Moonberry. Once it makes a decision, it fully devotes itself to it, letting its mushrooms jingle and say:

"I have prepared mushroom nets for you to use for raids, but please do not harm the queen. Excessive killing is not something worthy of praise. This forest should be more peaceful.

Even if the war is defeated, there should be a peaceful handover. "

"Believe me."

The pirate shrugged his shoulders, held the murderous twin blades of sorrow around his waist, and said:

"Although I am the evil god who brings chaos, I long for peace more than anyone else. If you don't believe me, you can even swear an oath."
