Shadow Trails in Azeroth

I don’t know when the idea that wind snakes are evil spread among the troll circles.

But if you think about it with your heel, you will know that the emergence of this statement must be inseparable from the destruction of the Gurubashi troll empire. The troll empire that existed in the jungle of Stranglethorn Valley turned to believe in the blood god after the earth collapsed. Haka.

Just by the name, you can tell that this is not a good person.

It also has another name called "Soul Reaver", and it is a wind snake.

This bad guy wantonly drained the blood and souls of believers and made such a fuss that the powerful Gurubashi troll empire declined rapidly, and as a result he offended many Loa.

Among them is the petty god of death, Bwonsamdi.

I don’t know if the Troll’s God of Death is related to Hakkar’s defeat and exile, but there is a high probability that it is, because Bwonsamdi also has his followers and clans in Stranglethorn Vale.

In short, after the incident of the Blood God Hakkar, few trolls in Zandalari and other continents believed in the custom of Wind Serpent Loa, but Hakkar was not the only Wind Serpent Loa.

So this wave is basically a mouse droppings, ruining a pot of soup.

Haka's failure caused him to be banished from the material world, and along with his fellow wind snakes, they were disgusted by the trolls and lost the source of their faith.

There are currently two Wind Serpent Loa in Azeroth, and their shrines are both in Northrend, on the side of the Drakkari Trolls.

Fortunately, Blake had just arrived in Zul'Drak and got involved with one of them.

But fortunately, with Blake's operation, the result was pretty good.

"so be it."

Having said everything he needed to say to Quesluen in front of him, Black took out a emblem of the Uncrowned One, dripped it with his own blood and threw it over. Queslun also threw his holy emblem. The ceremony was established.

The two of them are tied to a boat. Once Black stabs it in the back, it will have a way to expose the pirate's behavior of pretending to be powerful and cheating on Bwonsamdi.

There is a constraint, which is good for both parties.

"The contract is established."

The Gale Snake swung its wings, glanced at the blood stains belonging to its believers on the ground, and then used some evil method to drain the essence and blood from the corpses in front of Blake.

This careless look made the corners of Blake's eyes twitch.

Hey, you are producing and selling your own food.

How is this different from drinking spilled Coke with a straw? I know that your life in Dhakalai is miserable, but it's not as miserable as this, right?

You are a loa after all, can you be more decent?

"belch"

Quesluen drank enough blood and burped. This evil guy flapped his brightly colored wings happily and said to Blake:

"Let your people go to my temple. I will need a few days to bless them. The little troll at the head looks very smart, which is good. He will be my new priest from now on."

After saying that, the wind snake disappeared in a purple aura.

Watching it disappear, the pirate almost burst into laughter at this moment. Bwonsamdi's bad reputation was really useful. Look what he did to the country wind snake in front of him.

But the problem is, he is not Bwonsamdi's emissary at all.

Because of what happened to Hela, old Bwonsamdi felt that the pirate was a troublemaker, and wished that Black would never step into its underworld. He has a bad relationship with Bwonsamdi.

This wave, this wave is called the White Wolf with Empty Gloves, that is, they bully Queslun as a rural loa with limited information, and are afraid of Bwonsamdi to death, so they can succeed so easily.

"Who is that, come here."

The pirate took a sip of wine and waved to Dakuru.

The little troll had just used the captain's power to save his own people. After seeing the captain's power with his own eyes, this ambitious guy became more determined to get a chance on Black's lap.

This time he came running over with a flattering look on his back.

Blake "looked" at him up and down, then stretched out his hand, patted Darkuru's shoulder, and said in an encouraging tone:

"I have researched and decided that from today on, you will be the chief priest of Queslun, and your people will become its loyal believers and be granted the blessing of the wise.

Take your tribe to the temple of Quesluen soon. I have made an agreement with it.

Little brother, do your best in the future and don’t embarrass my recommender. "

"???"

Even though he already knew that the captain was very powerful, Black's power was still beyond the understanding of Dakuru, a country troll.

What the hell?

Is this the chief priest?

When he was a boy, he went to the Fortress of Draxalon to be a trainee priest for Salonya, the other wind serpent god. He stayed there for more than ten years and was kicked out of the fortress to fend for himself for making mistakes.

As a result, in just a moment, he became the chief priest of the other Loa god?

Dakuru felt as if he was dreaming, or the captain was talking nonsense.

Zarak, who was beside him, saw Dakuru's confused expression and was immediately very dissatisfied with his new little brother.

What's going on with you?

Weren't you quite clever before?

Now I would be happy to be the chief priest of Loa in the countryside for you and you wouldn’t even say anything? You, Dakuru, are too inferior. You have taught me repeatedly all the way, but in the end, this guy still can't open up the pattern.

"Snapped"

Zalak, who was so angry that he couldn't stand it, reached out and hit Dakuru hard on the head, scolding and saying:

"Why don't you quickly thank the captain for your kindness? You are just as stunned as a piece of wood!"

Under the scolding of the giant magician, Drakuru realized that the captain did not mean to brag. He immediately knelt down on one knee and thanked the captain for his gift, just like he did when he became a trainee priest.

Blake didn't care and said casually:

"There were originally three priests in Quesluen, but two were killed tonight, and one more. The first thing you do when you take your people to its temple is to establish a good relationship with the only remaining colleagues. understand?"

Darkuru's neck felt cold.

He was a serious and savage Drakkari troll. How could he not understand the meaning of Black's words? He did not dare to refute now and nodded in agreement.

And the big brother of the troll, Warlock Zarak, was like a captain, patting Drakuru on the shoulder and giving him an encouraging look. He quietly stuffed a sacrificial dagger stained with evil energy into the palm of Dakuru's hand.

Then he chased after the captain who turned to leave and continued to flatter him.

I am embracing a golden thigh!

The little troll looked at the dagger burning with evil flames in his hand, then glanced at the location of the Quesluen Temple, and finally glanced at the corpses of the trolls that had been drained of their blood in the falling snow at night.

In this cold night, a certain door in Dakuru's heart seemed to be quietly pushed open.

He raised his head and looked at the captain who was talking to the Bear Warrior in the distance. He thought to himself, how majestic it is!

Is this the world of the strong?

What I couldn't even ask for in my dreams, someone could get it for me in just a few words. He used to think that the priests of Dassakron Fortress were very majestic, but now, he has a more ambitious goal.

Hey, you abandoned your own Draxalon Fortress, go to hell!

I must be so majestic in the future!

Black didn't care about Darkuru's mental journey.

Although this troll would have become a moderate figure in the original world line, in the eyes of the pirates now, he is just an insignificant figure.

It's best if you can grow. If you can't grow, you won't lose anything.

The pirate will be more concerned about his new bodyguard.

"Now, Tur, you and I have fought side by side.

I don’t want to hide from you what kind of person I am, you have just seen it. I kill innocent people indiscriminately, I make deals with evil gods, I cultivate my own power, and it's not for the sake of saving the world. "

The pirate said to the silent bear warrior:

"Although I helped you put Ursock to rest, villains occasionally do good things. You just happened to meet me when I was in a good mood. But most of the time, I was the same ghost as before.

The kind of big bad guy who kills people without blinking an eye and is burned on the stake ten times without being wronged.

Therefore, before you officially join my fleet, I can give you the right to withdraw for Ursoc's sake. Mainly because I'm afraid that if you follow me in the future, you won't be able to stand my dark side and will have thoughts that you shouldn't have.

I hate betrayal.

So, let’s make it clear in advance. "

Blake glanced at the silent bear warrior and said:

"It's still too late for you to go back to Grizzly Hills. I will never stop you. You can also take Ursoc's Claw with you. Anyway, it is a sacred object in your Ursine Temple."

Tur Raging Claw is a bear-man, and they cannot learn to be tactful. After hearing the pirate's words, he raised his bear head and looked at the pirate with his animalistic eyes.

It asked seriously:

"Would you kill innocent people just because of the evil in your heart?"

"Do I look like a madman to you?"

Blake replied:

"I may not be a good person, but I don't like meaningless fighting either. I enjoy evil, but it is just a tool in my opinion, the same as good.

If it would bring me more benefit to be kind, believe me, I would be as righteous as a paladin. "

"Then I am willing to continue to follow you."

Tur looked at the Ursoc Claw on his arm and said stubbornly:

"I trust that my spirit will not entrust its sacred objects to a hopelessly evil person."

"You may be disappointed."

The pirate blinked and said:

"I am much more terrifying than those evil people. You have no idea how terrifying I am when I am evil. For example, now, I will give you a terrible and evil order."

Warrior Bear gritted his teeth and said:

"I will fulfill my duty!"

"Okay, then listen up!"

The pirate's tone became colder, as if he really wanted the Bear Warrior to do something heinous.

He was silent for a few seconds and said:

"I want you to go to the temple of Rennok, the giant bear in the north! I want you, a loyal believer of Ursoc, to go to the temple of the heretic god Loa, the other giant bear, to offer sacrifices and ask for its Bless.

Hahaha, this will definitely make a sincere believer like you extremely painful, how about it? Am I evil? "

"Well"

Tur Furyclaw's expression was strange at this moment.

The bear warrior glanced at the pirate with his own eyes and hesitated whether to tell Black the truth. After a few seconds, he decided to tell the truth:

"Well, captain, you may not understand the beliefs of our bear people. But Lennok, the giant bear in the north, is actually a god believed by some bear people clans.

After all, it is also a giant bear born in Northrend, and before the War of the Ancients, it often honed its giant bear fighting skills with Lord Ursoc. They are very good friends.

Just like the relationship between Tortola and Toga.

Before the war between the bears and the trolls, we would have pilgrims starting from the Grizzly Hills every year to worship at the Lennok Temple in Zul'Drak.

When I was a kid, too."

"enough!"

The pirate waved his hand angrily and said loudly:

"In short, I am evil, and I don't need to prove it to anyone! You, you go and worship that bear, and bring me a message to it by the way, saying that I need it to bless the pirates under my command.

I don't care what method you use, you must bring Lennok's Holy Emblem back to me. "

"Now, here you go."

The bear warrior shrugged helplessly, took a roaring statue of a giant bear from some clan pendants hanging on his arm, and handed it to Blake.

it says:

"This is the holy symbol that Lennok will only give to the bear people. It represents the love of the northern giant bears for us. As long as the incense is lit, anyone with a strong will can communicate with Lennok.

As for blessing.

In fact, Lennok is a very friendly Loa. It favors all unyielding warriors. No matter what their profession is, as long as they can be recognized by it, they can receive its blessings.

Captain, if you need Lennok's Holy Emblem, you should have told me earlier, so that you don't have to travel all the way to Zul'Drak so hard. "

"You, you, you are going to piss me off!"

Blake snatched the statue away from Tur. He glared at the Bear Warrior fiercely, turned around and jumped into the shadows. But the problem is that he is wearing a battle helmet and an eyepatch.

That look of anger could not be conveyed to the bear man at all.

Tuul Raging Claw only scratched his head in confusion. He really didn't understand how he could offend this moody pirate.

"Oh, brother bear man, you are too stupid. You can't talk to the captain like this."

The giant magician looked like a veteran, leisurely clasping his hands behind his back, teaching the Bear Warrior life lessons. He whispered:

"The captain is like a bad-tempered child sometimes. You have to coax him, understand? Come on, I'll teach you some ways to deal with him.

Let me tell you, this is a secret that a few of us have worked out privately, and I won’t tell most people about it.

By the way, are you interested in joining our small group?

Although there are only three of us, we have great potential, we are all strong, and only those who are most loyal to the captain are qualified to be invited.

I think you have great potential. If you go to the fleet like this without anyone to protect you, you will be bullied by other stinky pirates. Those pirates are bad. They like to deceive simple warriors like you.

So, not as good as you. Ah! "

Before Zarak could finish his words, a dart shot from the shadow was inserted into his butt. The imprisonment blade was activated, causing the troll to scream in pain and be imprisoned in place, unable to even stop the bleeding.

After a few seconds, the buttocks of the cassock became a large area of ​​red, which looked like bursting hemorrhoids.

Hey, you've offended the petty captain and you still want to run away?

joke!

And you, Tur, now you know how evil I am, right?

Ha ha ha ha
