Azeroth Shadow Trail

   Chapter 1368 1. Safe Gilneas reminds you that the driving is not standardized, and the relatives are crying [220]

   "It's already November, and winter is coming. This autumn has been really fulfilling."

   On the boat from Menethil Harbor to Tol Barad, Blake watched the Reaper go far above his head, and he waved his hand to the sky to express a very literary emotion.

At this time, it is the early winter of the eighth year of the Dark Portal, and the climate in the central part of the Eastern Continent has also become a little colder, but for super masters like pirates and Maiev, it is difficult for them to have any sensory effects due to temperature changes. influence.

  If necessary, Black can take off his clothes and play naked on the dwarf's Dun Morogh Snow Mountain or the land of Winterspring. Running will not feel cold.

   But the change of time always makes people sigh.

  Especially when so many things have happened in such a short period of time, it is really emotional.

   But right now on this fishing boat belonging to the "Nat and Hal Fishing Company", Maiev was concerned about something else. This would be the Lady Warden, dressed in a Gilnean Merchantwoman's robe and with a gold top hat, frowning ahead of the cabin.

   There was a wealthy young human being hugging a Nightborne girl in a long dress, talking and chatting in a low voice, and beside them there was a Nightborne little girl napping beside the man.

   Maiev whispered to Black:

   "What happened to that Nightborn and that Human? Why are they so close?"

   "The two of them are husband and wife, right? Isn't that supposed to be intimate? Do you think everyone is as cold as you?"

  Black pouted and said:

   "Hal is a well-known businessman in Nanhai Town, not only because he had good luck last year, he dug up pirate treasures when he went on an expedition to the sea, and returned to his hometown to become rich overnight, bought several boats and opened a fishing company to benefit the village.

   More because he was fortunate to 'picked up' the widow of a wrecked Nightborn elf young woman in the Suramar wilderness while traveling around the world with a handsome and mighty pirate captain, and then fell in love with the latter and got married.

  Although Lady Villeneuve is a dark-skinned elf.

  Although this lady is still a bit addicted to magic.

   But the fact that Howl, a poor boy, can marry a elf is almost like a legend to ordinary people in Southsea.

  I heard that because of the popularity of this matter, Hal is ready to run for the next mayor of Southsea Town. It is said that this generous businessman sends gifts to every townsman who supports him, so there are quite a few people who support him.

   If it's not as good as accident, in a few months I'll be calling him Mr. Mayor. "

   "What lucky businessman even dug up pirate treasures, you really can't make up!"

   Maiev whispered:

   "This Hal is actually the pirate eyeliner you planted in Nanhai Town, right?"

   "How clever, Mrs. Maiev."

  Blake shrugged, holding a pipe around Mavy's slender waist, and said in a low voice:

   "That's right, Hal was mine a long time ago.

   Ever since I brokered his marriage to his elf wife, he's been dead on to me. But Hal wasn't a real pirate, he didn't have blood on his hands, he was a kind man in a broad sense.

  The brother he played with since he was a child is still the chief fisherman in my fleet, but the title deeds of Nanhai Town are all in my hands. In theory, it is my territory.

  Speaking of which, I haven't seen Nat for a long time, and I don't know how that unlucky guy is doing now? "

   "Nat, she's doing fine, Captain."

  While Black was talking to Maiev, the businessman Hal, who had finished talking to his wife, stooped and walked into the cabin of the small boat. He also graciously brought breakfast to Black and Maiev.

   This very happy guy touched his beard, which he had deliberately grown so that he could look more mature and stable, while pouring wine for the captain, he said:

"Last time Nat sent a letter back, saying that with the help of his mentor, he dropped a big fish from the abyss in a hidden cave in the barren land, and finally suppressed his 'disease' .

   Now Nat is running on both sides of the Misty Sea and the Broken Isles with Captain Anaris' flagship.

   He also said that he plans to go to Pandaria to meet the famous pandaren anglers there, and learn a few things from them. "

   "That's okay."

  Black took a sip of wine, touched his fingers, and said:

   "Remind him to come back next time you write to Nat, he still owes me a fishing trip.

  The last member of the ring family in the abyss has not been caught. I don't think anyone in this world can accomplish this except him.

  Although it’s not a big deal, considering that the first and second supreme rings are now worn on my mother’s fingers, and she is not a very good person, so this matter is really on the agenda. "

   "Well, I'll tell Nat, Captain."

  Hal nodded, and was about to turn to leave but was stopped by Black.

  The smelly pirate fumbled around in his luggage, and finally took out a bag of cut draenei gems and threw it to Hal, saying:

   "This is my gift to your unborn child."

"Um?"

  Hall's eyes widened, and he looked at the elf wife who was busy outside the cabin with surprise and joy. He lowered his voice and asked ecstatically:

   "Captain, you mean me and Villeneuve."

   "Yeah, a half-elf child with an odd background is about to be born in eight or nine months."

  Blake shrugged, then showed a malicious smile, holding the wine glass and saying to the surprised man in front of him:

   "But I suggest that you let your wife drink less magic wine recently, it's not that she can't drink it, but you must control the amount of alcohol and don't have any effect on the child.

  I don't know if the Nightborne's addiction to magic will be inherited."

   "Yes, but not as serious as you think."

   Maiev next to the pirate shook his head and whispered in Sarasian language:

   "As long as they get out of Suramar's environment, children's addiction to magic can be suppressed through long-term training.

   As long as the magic wine is not abused, the thirst for magic power of the newborn night child is like a slight alcohol addiction, and it will not endanger the children's growth and their minds.

   But you'd better take your child to Mount Hyjal after he or she is born and ask for blessings from the Priests of the Moon.

  The bright moonlight can help the elf baby relieve the pain. "

   "Ah, I see, I'm going to write this down, thank you for the reminder, kind elf lady."

  Hal hurriedly took out his ledger and wrote Maiev's instructions on it.

   He took another look at the close relationship between Maiev and Black, and then raised his brows, as if he was planning to say a few words to bless the two handsome men in front of him, but was stopped by the stinky pirate with his eyes.

   Black snorted and asked:

"Seeing you guys living so happily is really annoying for a vile pirate like me, so I decided to find something for you. My dear Hal, I gave you a dividend to go home and start a business, but I also gave you a task.

   You shouldn't have forgotten, right?

  Say it.

  Is there anything noteworthy near Hillsbrad Hills recently? "

   "Uh, nothing major."

  Hal scratched his head, thinking about the news of his hometown during this period of time. After a few seconds, he said hesitantly:

   "However, a lot of terrible things happened in Gilneas not long ago, and it is said that King Jean there found a solution to the werewolf curse.

  It is said that he brought back a treasure from the elf's territory, and also claimed that the power of the werewolf could be used by humans. But I asked Villeneuve, and she said she hadn't heard of any elven treasure that would defeat the werewolf curse.

And I heard that in the big city over there in Gilneas, many people have taken the initiative to ask to become werewolves under the call of the king. All prisoners were transformed into werewolves. "

   "This matter is over."

  Blake waved his hand and said regretfully;

   "I've known about this for a long time. It seems that you are really careless in doing things for me, Hal, I have to punish you properly."

   "Master Captain, please don't punish Dad!"

Just as he was speaking, Howl's Nightborn daughter Connie ran in with a plate of washed berries. She smiled and put the berries in her hand in front of Maiev, and then grabbed Blake's hand and shook it. go, begging:

"Dad works hard every day, doing business, and going to meetings with those who support him. He doesn't have much time to collect news. But I heard some from my classmates at my church school in Tarren Mill. Interesting news, Master Captain, do you want to hear it?"

   "It's still the little Connie who is amazing."

  Blake was always generous and tolerant to children. He tapped little Connie on the head, took out a bag of Gnomeregan gummies for her, and asked:

   "What did your classmates tell you?"

   "It's great news!"

  Connie put the gummy candy in her mouth and said to Blake mysteriously:

"I have a friend who plays very well. Her hometown is from Burnwood Village. She secretly told me a few days ago that when she and her parents went back to their hometown for vacation, they accidentally saw fierce werewolves in the forest chasing them. Druid!"

"Um?"

   Black and Maiev blinked at the same time. Little Connie's news is what really counts, and the kid probably doesn't understand what she's hearing from the grapevine.

  The stinky pirate and Maiev looked at each other, he looked at Connie who was eating candy, and asked:

   "Did your friends describe to you what the druids who were being hunted looked like? And their identities?"

   "She said it."

  The Child of the Night Elf tilted his head and frowned for a while, and said:

   "But I forgot.

   But I remember her saying those druids weren't good people either! In the past, before the werewolves started to make trouble, those druids used very bad methods to forbid hunters from hunting.

  They forced many hunters to change careers, and some people almost starved to death because of it.

  So seeing those bad druids being hunted down by werewolves, the hunters in the entire Burnwood Village were very happy, they said that this was the retribution, and they wanted to hold a banquet to celebrate. "

   "Oh, Rendehui."

   Little Connie said that, and Black and Maiev immediately understood the whole story.

   Those crazy, domineering Rendehui petty security guards finally met a group of werewolves who physically attacked them.

   This wave.

   This wave is called the wicked man grinds, and the dog bites the dog.

   His Majesty Jean's "Gu Raising Tactics" in his own country seems to have entered the "finals". I don't know which evil force will dominate Gilneas in the future?

   It's really exciting to think about it.

   "Really well done!"

  Blake patted little Connie on the head and said to the smiling little girl:

   "You little spy is much better than your father, I want to reward you, my dear little spy, are you going to visit Tol Barad with me for a few days?

   I will send someone to take you back when your school starts. It happens that my daughter and her friends are attending classes there. You will definitely become very good friends. "

—

   "Hey, the old man still wants to trap me? Dreaming!"

  At the same time, but not the same place, Miss Catelyn Ruinwiver was carrying a small burden and ran out of a manor in Silverpine Forest near Lake Lordamere.

   She is agile and vigilant, looking at the flexible posture of climbing the wall, she doesn't look like a spellcaster at all, and she doesn't have the restraint and grace that a daughter of an archmage should have.

   Instead, she looks like a female thief who has been trained for many years.

   But looking at the black ashes on Miss Catelyn's fair face, she knew that her escape from the imprisonment her father had set for her was definitely not smooth.

  The Archmage of the Council of Six, Ansrem Ruinwevor, is still working in Stormwind City. He never thought that his daughter would run away from home at this time.

   He would never have imagined that the two female apprentices he had left to take care of his daughter had already been knocked unconscious by his daughter's self-taught sap skills.

   "Oh, I can finally pursue the life I want!"

   Miss Catelyn, who was looking out of the manor, cocked her hips and laughed proudly. She moved her shoulders and took out the "camouflage props" she had prepared for a long time.

   She hid in the stable and changed into a standard Gilnean businesswoman.

   She even prepared a caravan for herself in the farmhouse not far from the manor, which is often used by Gilneas traders traveling from south to north.

   That’s how we live together.

   "I heard from the mages that the wolf worship in Gilneas has been very chaotic recently, so it is not suitable to go from Keel Harbor. I will go southeast from Ambermere, go to Nanhai Town, and then find a boat to go out to sea."

   Caitlin was very skilled in driving the carriage and hit the road when the sun was rising.

   While waving the whip, she imitated the Gilnean merchants to shout to both sides of the road, while planning her own homeward route in her mind.

   In the clothes of Miss Catelyn's stand-in is an admission notice for the Warlock School of Narthalas Academy, which is the confidence that she dares to run away from home.

   As long as he can go to the magic academy in Tol Barad to officially enroll before the old man can catch him back, then the old man will not want to bring himself back when he is angry.

  The Academy of Nar'Thalas is not a place where a stodgy old archmage can go wild.

   As long as you run there, you can get rid of all the suffocating Dalaran.

   "First go to the Warlock Academy for a few years of study, and then take the professional title and join the undead pirate fleet. In this way, I can realize my long-cherished wish in life.

  Be a pirate!

   What a free and beautiful life. "

  Miss Caitlin has started to imagine her future professional life while she is on her way. She even thought about her own pirate nickname.

  I will be called "Sharpblade" Caitlin from now on!

  Tsk tsk, it sounds majestic.

Of course, it's a very scary thing to think about running away when driving a horse-drawn carriage. It's basically equivalent to wandering around the world while driving. Therefore, soon, Miss "Sharp Blade" Caitlin encountered the first game of her young life." traffic accident".

   Just as she was driving a well-camouflaged carriage, brandishing a whip, and cheering as she crossed the downhill of a forest road, a blood-covered woman suddenly rushed out of the nearby forest.

   The latter opened his arms weakly and seemed to want to say something, but when Miss Catelyn reacted, the galloping old horse had knocked the poor woman out for help.

   And Miss Caitlin's mind went blank when she saw the woman being hit by her own carriage. The first thought that popped up in her stopped mind was:

Ruined!

   This bad old man is trying to find a way to get his daughter out of the Gilnean prison!

   I heard that Gilneas officials are forcibly converting all prisoners into werewolves recently, so, will I become "Wolf Howling" Caitlin in the future?

Hello! This is not the life plan Miss Catelyn wanted to risk running away from home.

asshole!

   Do you have to be so unlucky!

   However, there are dense forests on the left and right, and it will still be early in the morning when it is still dark. No one sees the bad things that he has done accidentally, why don't you just run?

   said, as long as you run fast enough, no one should be able to find you. Right?
