Azeroth Shadow Trail

   Chapter 117 27. The big appetite of the little fox

   "You outsiders, do you ask people for help in such a rude way?"

   Ten minutes later, by the bonfire of the ruined temple, the released fox man leader rubbed his shoulders, his furry face showing extreme dissatisfaction.

   She put her paw to her mouth and whistled, and the little alpaca with black and gray fluff immediately took a cheerful step, ran to the fox man, and circled around her.

   The other foxmen who were captured by the orcs were all released, presumably to express their "apology". Maim also brought a few orcs to help the foxmen clean up the caravan that was just messed up.

  The sandy ground is full of materials collected by the fox people in the desert.

   Living in this barren place is very hard to think about, but the caravans of the fox people are very large, and each one is like a house pulled by an alpaca, and it can put a considerable amount of things in it.

   This foxman tribe has nine caravans, and the things inside are all their property. They have fifty or sixty people, and they are already a relatively large foxman tribe in the Waldun Desert.

   It's really hard to imagine how these little guys have collected so many things in the barren Wharton Desert.

   These fox people did not refuse the help of the orcs, but they had no good feelings for these violent green-skinned big men.

   But the fox man who can become the leader is naturally more cunning and calmer than his compatriots.

   She stretched out her hand and stroked the fluff of the vicuña, took out a few green leaves from the bag around her waist and fed them to the vicuña, and said to Blake with a grin:

   "You can find our lost alpaca, and you can definitely find our campsite. Why don't you send a messenger to help? You have to bring us here?"

   "Because we are pressed for time."

  The pirate said with that hypocritical smile:

   "And I found jasmine in the desert, it was all luck.

  I didn't find your camp under the cliff on the southwest side, nor did I sneak in and watch you gather together and wag your tails and sing. "

  “!”

   The fox leader's tail twitched sharply, and her fox-like eyes stared at Black and said:

   "Mickey said I was thinking too much, but I knew that there were indeed a few things missing in the camp! You took the map box we put in the camp, right?"

   "You lost something? It's really miserable."

  Blake poked the bonfire with a wooden stick and said insincerely:

   "Be careful next time, I heard that many of my fellow stalkers have the habit of taking things indiscriminately, and it is not every time you are lucky to meet such an honest and honest thief as me.

   Alright, let's get down to business.

  You see, I have more than 100 men, and I need to hire your tribe. After all of your nine caravans are unloaded, count the roof, and squeeze the inside, enough to accommodate us.

   and your coyote mounts can also divert some of the pressure. "

  The pirate looked at the fox-man leader, and he asked:

   "I can pay with anything you need, but I have a question. From here to the south across the entire Waldun Desert, with you leading the way, is eight days enough time?"

"enough."

  The fox leader scratched his ears, rolled his eyes and said:

   "If we take the foxmen's coastal trade route, it will take seven days, but if we take the road of Akunda Temple, it will only take five days to reach the southern coast.

   You're going to Zemland Harbor to find the Pirate King's treasure, right?

   Actually, there is no need to go. "

   She shook her fluffy tail and said regretfully:

   "We foxmen have lived in Wharton for almost six thousand years, and every generation of the most adventurous foxmen tribe will go there to find the legendary treasure.

   But we have rummaged the place from generation to generation, and there is nothing but a cursed ruin. "

"some."

  Black didn't have to look to know that the sly little fox was talking clichés.

   He said in the presence of the old god:

   "The clue is in the ruins of the harbour, but you haven't seen it. Let's talk about business. I've seen Gilnean traders in the eastern continent, and they also use caravans to pull goods around the northern border countries.

   In some remote areas, they are very popular.

   It is possible to develop such a caravan, I guess, you fox people must be very good at doing business, so you don’t have to worry about it, just tell me the answer directly.

  Would you like to help us? "

   "I have a name! You are not allowed to call me a fox!"

  The fox man leader bared his teeth towards Blake, she held her claws in dissatisfaction and said:

   "My name is Eudora.

   As for your business, you see, it's not that I don't help you. If I want to bring you and your greenskin men, I have to unload all the materials that our tribe has collected for many generations.

   And you guys are too big.

  If you want to ride in a caravan, you need an alpaca to pull it, and a car can ride up to six greenskins. If you want to go together, we have to rent our coyote to you.

   But this way, my clansmen will not be able to accompany them.

  I still have to find a place to put them. The Wharton Desert is very dangerous. You outsiders have no idea how hard we live. "

  The pirate pursed his lips. He looked at the little fox man leader who was holding his claws and flapping his tail. He said:

   "So, Eudora, you mean, you have to increase the price, right?"

   "Smart."

  The fox man laughed, showing a very cunning, treacherous expression, she did not hide it, and said to Blake generously:

   "I don't want you to pay in advance, but if you come here, no matter what you find, my tribe will be one third!"

   "This is too much! Impossible!"

  Blake has not spoken yet, standing behind him, the dog-legged Diga Evil Eye first complained loudly:

   "You are too greedy! Give you a tenth at most!"

   "Okay, then a tenth."

  Evil Eye's voice just fell, and the cunning fox man immediately waved his left hand with only four fingers, and the big tail behind him was very happy, and he agreed with a sinister smile.

"Uh"

  The orc warlock suddenly looked embarrassed, and when he looked down, he saw the faint gaze of his captain, which made his heart tremble.

   "You talk more!"

  Blake cursed and said with a look of disgust:

   "Go, go, go out and help the little foxes organize their supplies, remember to take care of them."

  The pirate emphasized the word "care", which changed the expression on Eudora's furry face. She added:

   "Oh, this is negotiable, and it doesn't have to be one-tenth."

   "Well, you seem to be a very knowledgeable leader."

  Blake then smiled. He rubbed his chin, which had grown a messy beard, and said:

   "Do you know how much treasure Zemran left behind? It's a pity to be a pirate for such a cunning and greedy little man.

How about this.

  I give you a tenth, but how about you and your clan, join my pirate party? I'll get you a boat and make it your new home.

  Look, how desolate this place is in Wharton, your wisdom can't be used here at all. "

  The pirate looked at the fox man in front of him, and there was light in his eyes.

   This young fox leader is not simple.

  Blake remembered her name.

   She is in the future.

To be precise, 14 years later, when Dai Lin died in Kalimdor and at the hands of her rebellious daughter, when the order of the South China Sea trade route completely collapsed, she would choose to leave Wharton with her own people. Become a pirate captain.

   And the "Water Rat Gang" she established has indeed made a big name in the South China Sea.

   Since he can become a famous pirate captain in the future, it means that this ambitious and restless female fox is born to belong to the ocean. Such a person is what Blake needs most now.

   Black's words left the fox man Eudora stunned.

   She did not expect that this human being in front of her would actually take the initiative to recruit her.

  My God.

   This is the first time they meet.

  Even the word "human" was just learned by Eudora a few minutes ago. This man didn't play cards according to the routine, which made the fox man leader a little unsure of how to talk to him.

   "I need to think about it, you are so sudden, I don't know anything about you and your forces, and our first meeting was not 'friendly'.

   This worries me. "

   After a few minutes, she flicked her tail, choked out such a sentence, and changed the subject bluntly:

   "Why don't you just complete this trip across the desert first. I'll be your guide and take you along the road of Akunda Temple, no problem?"

   "Problem, yes!"

  Black dropped the stick in his hand, spread his hands, and calmly said to Eudora:

   "You've been persuading me to take the road of Akunda Temple, are you planning to trap us outsiders? Do you think we don't know anything about this place in Wharton?

   Something happened to the temple of the troll Loa recently, and it affected the activities of your foxmen in the local area, right?

   Seeing that my subordinates have amazing fighting power, so I plan to use a knife to kill?

  You foxes are so small, why are you so brave? Aren't you afraid that things will come to light and let your small tribe disappear overnight? "

   Eudora's furry face showed a look of surprise, she took a step back, and looked at Black more and more vigilantly.

   After talking with this human for only a few minutes, she felt that she was being rhythmically walked by the guy in front of her, as if she had fallen into his preset net as soon as the conversation started.

   As the conversation deepened, the net was tightening little by little.

   "Well, our first meeting wasn't really friendly, Eudora. For a merchant or an explorer, such a bad start.

   But think about it on the bright side. If you look at it as a pirate, then my performance and my subordinates are very qualified. "

  Blake showed an indifferent smile.

   He said to the fox man in front of him:

   "As you said, take the road of Akunda Temple, in fact, I have heard about what is happening there, and I also want to pay homage to Akunda, the **** of storms.

   As long as it doesn't take too much time, I'll be happy to help you foxes with a little trouble.

   But at least you have to tell me how the exiles who gathered in the Akunda temple came into conflict with you? "

   "They. They got our people."

   Eudora was a little confused, but under Blake's gaze, she finally decided to tell the truth.

   She shook her big tail and said to the pirate:

   "Hundreds of years ago were safe and sound, Akunda is not a tyrannical Loa god, he has been guarding the order of the Waldun desert together with Jibul, the **** of tigers.

   also occasionally helps us defend against the attacks of those crazy unbelievers.

   But a year ago, things changed. Many fox tribes had their clan members who disappeared for no apparent reason, and several leaders who were familiar with me went to look for them.

   But they never come back.

   It is said that our tribesmen were recruited by the new priests of Akunda Temple to join a strange organization.

   I haven't paid much attention to it, my tribe has been operating on the edge of the desert, but last month, I also had a few people missing! The new priest of Akunda must have played a trick.

  We are locals. Even if we have the intention to **** the clans back, we cannot use force in the holy land of trolls, not to mention that we foxmen are not good at fighting since we were born.

   We can't necessarily beat those trolls.

   But you sure can!

   Those greenskins are powerful, stronger than trolls, and you are outsiders, so you don't have to obey Vol'dun's order. I really don't have any bad intentions!

I swear! "

   Eudora raised her left paw and made a vow.

   She was very sincere and said to Blake:

   "As long as you can help us take those irrational clansmen out of the temple, I will definitely send you to Zemland Port, and I will not charge you a penny."

"it is good."

  Black didn't hesitate, he reached out to the fox man in front of him, he said:

   "That's it, I don't want to wait any longer. Let's go tonight. Go and meet Akunda, our lovely, powerful, honest and unlucky storm god."
