Shadow Trails in Azeroth

Even though it was a surgery, Blake's skill with a knife was smooth enough and his fingers were precise enough to serve as the chief surgeon. But it's just a fatal injury caused by supernatural forces. Is surgery still needed?

"There's something dirty in the wound, just suck it out and it'll be fine."

Captain Black took a bag of magic materials from the little fishman's hand and tossed it up and down in his hand. He glanced at Captain Anne Bonn, who was lying on the table next to her with a pale face.

The latter had already followed the "doctor's orders" and took off his shirt to reveal the wound.

Shy but not shy, they are already old pirates, do they still care about showing some flesh?

The main reason is that Blake's "treatment" posture is a bit wrong, which makes people feel uncomfortable.

The captain arranged a divine power-draining ceremony next to the female pirate at one o'clock, and said to Ms. Natalie beside him:

"When I start sucking it later, you use holy light to keep her soul from leaving the body. I have several things in my hand that eat souls. Once they are taken away, it will be quite troublesome."

"No problem, this is easy."

The ship's doctor looked at the ceremony arranged in front of her and said softly:

"You just use this thing to give Xal'atas"

"So be it."

Blake curled his lips and said:

"But if it doesn't want to, this ritual still won't be able to extract her, so we can only say that Xal'atath 'fancy' me, and it chose me as its new host.

I also broke away from the dagger and made a nest in my heart to make my home. "

"Well, it looks like Lady Xal'atath 'favours' you very much, Captain."

Natalie whispered:

"If I were you, I would probably not be able to sleep well from now on. Be wary of those whispers. No, just being wary is not enough. It's best not to listen."

"That's what I say, but I can't prick my ears. It's right there. It's impossible not to listen. But I have a way to deal with her, so don't worry about me."

The pirate quickly arranged the ritual materials on the left and right. He moved his left hand, grabbed the Devil's Strike in his hand, pursed his lips to Natalie, and said:

"Get ready, I'm about to begin."

"Um."

The ship's doctor stepped forward and stood three steps away from Anne Bonn. She raised her hands and maintained the posture of releasing the holy light for healing. Blake glanced at the pale female pirate in front of him.

He glanced at Annie's chest.

Well, the shape is good and it's pretty eye-catching, but the wound at the heart really makes the scenery look bad.

It looked like it had been pierced by a dagger, and the wound was not large.

But the skin near the wound was already ulcerated, and it still smelled of decay when the mummy was unearthed.

Just by smelling it, you can tell that the injury is not simple. As a master assassin, although Black does not often use poison, he is still very knowledgeable in this area.

No poison can cause such weird destructive power, unless something weird is added to the poison.

"Be patient, it might hurt a little."

Blake put a wooden stick to Annie's mouth. The female pirate was quite courageous. She took a deep breath, bit the stick tightly, and signaled to the pirate with her eyes that she was ready.

The next second, Blake cut his palm and a drop of blood fell on the ceremony.

As the ritual was activated, the moment Blake's blood-stained fingers touched the skin of Annie's arm, a terrible pain erupted in the female pirate's body.

It was like the pain of being cut into pieces by a thousand cuts.

It was like being thrown into a meat grinder. Following the power coming from Black's palm, Annie let out a painful whimper. Her teeth clenched the wooden stick in her mouth, and sawdust flew everywhere.

The wound on her chest exploded, as if a bomb had been planted there. Smelly blood and rotten flesh poured out of her body. For a moment, the female pirate felt like she had seen another world.

A barren, scorched earth was reflected in front of her eyes.

His soul seemed to be leaving his body in pain, but soon, another warm force appeared in front of his eyes, which was the healing of the holy light, turning into a slap on Anne's restless soul.

Ms. Natalie's hand shining with holy light was very rough, and she slapped the pirate's soul back into his body.

The conceptual power of death attached to her wound was quickly captured by Blake in the continuous rolling of pain.

After all, this is not the first time he has dealt with the power of death.

The pirate locked onto the cold force that was destroying Anne Bonn's body, like catching a fish that was scurrying around, and pulled it out hard.

"puff"

The wooden stick in the female pirate's mouth was spat out, and a stream of blood spurted out from her mouth.

Her breath dropped quickly, like a dying person, her eyes became blank, and she was panting again. But as Natalie dropped several balls of holy light, the female pirate's breathing resumed. Quick and smooth.

The wounds on her chest looked terrible, but they began to heal under the healing power of the Holy Light.

This female pirate has good vitality, probably because she has been exposed to wind and rain all year round at sea and has developed a healthy body. The evil forces hindering recovery have been removed, and what remains is that after healing, a few days of careful practice will lead to complete recovery.

Blake took out a handkerchief and wiped the blood on his left hand while looking at the record on the character card in front of him:

Micro-infusion of divine power

Divine Power Discernment: Death

Power Path: [North Sea Scourge] Jonah Sterling

More advanced power path: [Summoner] Anhild

Didn't get mythical rank

The strength attribute does not match and cannot be converted.

In front of Black's eyes, Anne Bonn, although still very weak, had already passed the most difficult moment. The female pirate put on her captain's coat and took the rum specially placed there from the side.

He raised the bottle of wine and drank half of it. Her bold posture was worthy of that of a female pirate traveling across the frozen sea.

"ah."

She let out a moan of pleasure, raised her hand to wipe her mouth, stood up again, and with a hint of respect and fear, bowed to Captain Black in front of her.

she says:

"Thank you for your help, Commander. I know the rules of our profession. Since you leave us losers alive, you want us to serve you.

We are willing to join the undead pirate group and contribute to your cause. "

Look, what is an old pirate?

The ability to assess the situation is very strong. When to be tough and when to bow, there is no ambiguity. When you make up your mind to sell yourself, you will never hesitate at all.

The gangsters who betrayed him were neat and tidy and had no loyalty at all.

Blake looked extremely satisfied. He nodded and said:

"Very well, I accept your allegiance, North Sea fanatics, but I am very dissatisfied with your combat effectiveness. My pirate group does not need weaklings, and you will have new tasks soon.

It counts as joining our assessment.

Now, let’s talk about the internal fighting in your fleet. Why did your leader, ‘North Sea Scourge’ Jonah Sterling, suddenly launch a liquidation against you?

You are supposed to be the second in command of the North Sea Pirates. Is there a conflict of interest with him? "

"No, Commander."

When the name Jonah was mentioned, Anne Bonn immediately shook her head and said with an unlucky look:

"There is no conflict of interest, my lord.

Jonah is just plain crazy.

The decline of North Sea pirates has not happened in a day or two. We have many competitors on the coast of Northrend. The environment in that place is terrible and our colleagues are cruel.

The vrykul pirates, the walrus pirates, and the damn Kvaldir, none of them are good.

We have to huddle together for warmth to be able to barely support the situation.

Jonah and I have known each other for over ten years. He is a terrible bastard and a scumbag in every aspect, but he has a good brain and would not do such crazy things.

But a month ago, the situation changed subtly. "

Annie rubbed her sore chest. The female pirate glanced at Blake and said:

"I don't know where Jonah got the news about the artifacts of the Vrykul tribe in Stormfjord. He led a group of people and took advantage of the civil war between several Vrykul tribes to dig out the ancient tombs of the Vrykul. .

No one knows what happened that night.

But after Jonah came back, it was as if he was a different person. He locked himself in the house in Badass Harbor and performed some kind of ritual. Twenty days ago, he suddenly summoned us and said he wanted to discuss important matters.

I was completely unprepared for this.

After the result, it was discovered that Jonah had surrendered to Hades. He claimed that Queen Hela had given him an oracle, saying that a force had risen in the endless sea and must be destroyed.

He wants us to fight for him and unify Beihai first.

Then head south.

The group of Kvaldir Mist pirates actually joined forces with him. All the forces that disobeyed him that night were eliminated. I had to fight tooth and nail to escape.

But of the eight ships under my command, only these three were left. My crew suffered heavy casualties, and I almost lost my life. "

The female pirate glanced at Blake again.

she says:

"Your Excellency Commander, I used to suspect that Jonah's words were just that he was crazy, but now it seems that his claim that he received the oracle from Hela is not groundless.

He said that the force that must be destroyed should refer to you and your fleet. "

"Well, I already know this."

Blake rubbed his chin and said:

"Hela sent her own Shadow Val'kyr to assist the North Sea pirates in unifying the Northrend waters. But the death power of the North Sea Scourge was not given by Hela herself.

It seems that you group of North Sea pirates are not a force that she has carefully cultivated.

It's really a pity that I have caused so much trouble to His Majesty Hela.

But your 'merciful' Majesty still does not regard me as your primary enemy. "

Blake shook his head and said with regret:

"It seems that I have to continue to work harder and create more trouble for Hela. They are all messing around on the sea. I can't let her look down on me like this.

Decided!

Next goal, we go to Northrend.

Go to that frozen sea and inspect it. I heard that there are many Loa gods and trolls there. I promised to help Bwonsamdi find the souls of the troll heroes.

You can't miss an appointment. "

As he spoke, the pirate patted the shoulder of the guarding knight Joan Creedon, and casually threw the trace amount of death power he had just obtained to him.

This divine power is not only trace amount, it is not even "high-level".

With only the weak divine power of turning his hands twice, the pirate couldn't muster the energy to collect it.

But the power of death given to the Creedon Knight had an extraordinary effect, making the aura of the creature between life and death suddenly become obscure and cold.

"哐"

The pirate obtained the Apocalypse Demonic Sword from the tomb of Karazhan. He carefully held the hilt with the animal skin and placed it in front of Knight Creedon. Black said:

"Try it and see if you can pick it up."

Knight Creedon is also reckless.

He immediately raised his hand and touched the hilt of the magic sword, but stopped before making contact. After hesitating for a few seconds, he took back his hand and said to the pirate in a ashamed tone:

"Sorry, Your Highness, I can't touch it. The power you gave me just now is warning me that I am not strong enough to hold such a Deathly Hallows.

Once I touch it rashly, I will lose this soul sworn to serve you. "

"Well, then become stronger as soon as possible."

Blake was not disappointed, wrapping the hilt of the sword with a small piece of dragon skin and throwing Apocalypse back into the magic bag.

He just gave it a try.

It's normal for a small character like the Knight of Creedon to be unable to pick up a soul-eating evil object like Apocalypse.

This legendary thing from the world of the dead was forged by an Eternal. Adding the essence of death makes it very dangerous. Indeed, not just any soul can have the ability to control it.

The pirate glanced at Anne Bonn in front of him, made a gesture and said:

"Go, consolidate the forces under your command, go to Vashj'ir tomorrow, take over the four ships under my command, and help my ancestor turtle friends fight against the Naga.

There are more than 500 of you left, which is too many.

I don’t really like this kind of ‘number advantage’ of mixed fish and dragons, so when there are only 300 people left in the battle with Naga, you can come back.

Don't worry, those dead will not really die, they will just change their way of existence and stay with you and me. "

When Anne Bonn heard this, her face suddenly turned pale.

Blake ignored her and turned around to walk out of the dark cabin. He said:

"Of course, you can also try to escape. We are all pirates, so I won't pretend to be generous. You can escape as you like. As long as you can escape, you will be free."

"So be it."
