Azeroth Shadow Trail

   Chapter 1370 3. Why can't I be a warlock and a pirate at the same time? 【420】

   "Well, the legendary Tol Barad!"

  When Hal's fishing boat passed through the Great Barrier of the Shadow of Foliage around Tol Barad Island in the afternoon, Miss Catelyn, who had changed into the caster's robe, suddenly exclaimed.

   It was as if the ship under her feet had inadvertently crossed the magical gate, and suddenly two large islands appeared on the empty sea in front of her eyes.

  The North Island is lively and the South Island is majestic.

  From the shimmering sea, you can easily see the towering, elf-style mage spire of Nar'Thalas College in the South Island.

   Especially the Grand Observatory specially built for astrologers is more like a lighthouse shining with magic light. The white tower body and the violet tower top make this building very similar to the scenery of Surama.

   Catelyn had only seen the landscape of Nar'Thalas College from the picture books brought back by Dalaran mages.

   Now I see with my own eyes that the girl who is chasing a free life has rounded her eyes, and greedily wants to carve the scenery in front of her into her heart.

   "I heard that Dean Aria Bluemoon even bought all the greenskin slaves in Gilneas in order to build this academy, and the prisoners of the Gilneas fleet also worked here for more than a year!

   It is said that many people died. "

  Caitlin turned back to Queen Mia, who was hanging her arms with bandages behind her, and said the third-hand gossip she heard from nowhere:

"I also heard people say that all the wealth for the construction of this magic academy came from the looting of undead pirates in the South China Sea. It is said that Lord Black Shaw has continuously unearthed the treasures of many ancient pirates, and even got him from looting Dalaran. All of his treasures were taken out to raise enough money for the establishment of Narthas College.

While the goblins of Booty Bay in Stranglethorn made a lot of money from this business, some mages in Dalaran complained that the magnificence and majesty of Nar'Thalas Academy was built on the hollowed-out foundation of Dalaran. Up.

   So they almost hated Blake Shaw to the core.

  In the war on the North Sea, there are still many Dalaran mages who volunteered to join the Alliance fleet, and they want to impose the shame of Dalaran's looting on Black Shaw's fleet.

   But to be honest, I don’t feel much about these things.

   I didn't like Dalaran anyway. "

   Caitlin sorted out the mage robes on her body and complained:

   "Originally, the city was full of stubborn guys like my dad, who regarded their own understanding of power as truth and suppressed all voices that disagreed with their ideas.

   is just too stupid in my opinion.

   It was only in the period after Dalaran was destroyed by the defilers that the old men began to absorb spellcasters from other factions.

   It has become more open and inclusive, and the image of the city where I was born has changed a lot in my eyes.

  I don't think it's a bad thing Dalaran was pillaged and destroyed, and old rotten things always need to be beaten up to recognize reality. "

"maybe."

  Queen Mia looked at the island in front of her with a complicated look.

   she whispered:

   "But those captured navy officers were released home a few months ago, and although the pirate island was founded by Black Shaw, the management of the island is not in his hands now.

   is an old friend of mine who runs the place.

   But the rise of Tol Barad is indeed the greatest humiliation we have faced in Gilneas in nearly a hundred years.

   Our fleet suffered a catastrophic defeat on this sea, not only losing control of Tol Barad, but even allowing pirates to show off our open seas as their backyard.

  My husband and his generals have always remembered that fiasco, desperate to get their glory back.

   I thought so too, I'm a Gilnean after all, and I love my country.

   But it wasn’t until I saw the madness that comes from hatred that I realized we might have gone too far down the wrong path.

   I hope to solve this problem by hand.

   You know, if you leave all the grievances to the men, it will always end in war, and the trash men of Gilneas are trying to turn themselves into monsters to gain the power of revenge.

   This is stupid.

   Maybe this time, it's time for the women to solve the problem. "

   "Wow, ma'am, what you said really made me angry as a woman, but it also made me feel a little scared."

  Caitlin looked at Queen Mia, who seemed to be determined, with odd eyes, and she whispered:

   "You're not going to assassinate Blake Shaw alone, are you? You better not do that, that guy is awesome, everyone who knows him says so.

   Actually, he is the second most ruthless character in my heart! "

   "Enough of this stupid talk that's been trending lately among you young people!"

  Queen Mia stretched out her hand to cover her forehead and said helplessly:

   "My son is not yet ten years old, and all day long he pointed his fingers and told me who the warriors he admires most in his heart are you, you are really influenced by Black too deeply.

   Ever since his bizarre list of admirers came out, it seemed like overnight you young people had such a list in your mind.

   So, are you actually a 'pirate worshipper' too? Miss Catelyn, no wonder your father keeps you locked up in the manor.

   Listen to my advice, little girl.

   You can learn from Blake's adventurous spirit and use his story of the rise as an inspirational extra-curricular reading, but don't follow his chaotic style.

   Do not actively think in terms of the so-called 'dark wisdom'.

   That will turn you into a neurotic. "

   "But I think that's pretty cool."

  Caitlin tilted her head and said something, then she happily took Queen Mia's hand and whispered:

"To tell you the truth, big sister, although we have known each other for a short time, I have decided to learn from you. You are the brave, beautiful, wise and sassy success I want to be in twenty years. big sister.

   Of course, it would be great if I could still have the same body as you in twenty years. "

   "Then eat more meat, drink more milk, and set aside three hours a day to ride horses and hunt."

   Queen Mia, who was blown by Caitlin's rainbow fart, grinned.

   She glanced at the eldest lady and said:

   "Look at you, little girl, you're as thin as a hemp pole."

   "Ladies, please get ready, we're going to dock."

  Hal, who was steering the boat behind him, reached out and wiped the sweat from his forehead. He said to the two in front of him:

   "I have sent the news to the island before, and there may be a close friend of the captain to greet you, especially you, Miss Caitlin, I heard that the college entrance examination is very strict, and you are a transfer student.

   So, you'd better get ready.

  I sent some students who failed the exams out of here before. They cried so badly. There are still a few young people who are still staying in the cram school in Nanhai Town.

   If you miss this entrance exam, you will have to wait another three years. "

   "Ah, is there an entrance exam?"

  The energetic Caitlin panicked.

   She hurriedly opened her carry-on bag, grabbed a few magic notes that belonged to her father that she had stolen, and went over it frantically, trying to use this "quantum reading" behavior to increase her chances of passing the exam.

   But such a sharpening gun is obviously useless.

  Queen Mia pulled her up and told her that it was time to relax her mind. If she was too nervous, even the wisdom she had mastered would be knotted in her mind, which would be too bad.

A few minutes later, Hal's fishing boat docked at the pier in Losberg. He greeted a few old pirates who were familiar with them, and with their help, they fixed the boat, and took off the board to let the two ladies. Board the pier.

   As soon as he got ashore, Hal saw a bored Blake wearing a loose pandaren-style "home robe" sitting on a stone on the pier drinking wine, with a fishing rod and an empty barrel at his hand.

   On his shoulders was a beautiful but restless bird.

   This is the Air Force again?

The captain    is very good in every aspect, but he is really a third-rate fisherman.

   "Hey, Captain, didn't you say you wanted to take that elf lady to play on the island?"

   Howl asked curiously:

   "Why are you here alone?"

   "I actually don't know what happened."

  Blake put down the bottle and said with a sullen face:

   "But my mother seemed very happy that I brought back a girl who was alive, beautiful, normal, without tentacles or scales.

   She kicked me out of the house and told me not to go back until evening.

   also said that they want to cook their own dishes for the guests to taste.

  I don't know what a grudge she has with the elf, but I just hope my dear prisoner doesn't get poisoned by eating a Kul Tiran-style lunch.

Um.

   Your name is Caitlin, right?

   If I remember correctly, you are the daughter of Archmage Ansrem? "

  The stinky pirate took a sip of wine and looked at Miss Caitlin behind Hal with her eyes shining. He curled his lips and said:

   "You are a direct descendant of Dalaran, why did you come to our site at Nar'Thalas Academy? Also, have you corrected your drinking problem? Are you still going to the bar at night to fool around and be picked up by people?"

   "No way!"

   Hearing the smelly pirate mentioning this, Caitlin lowered her head shyly, and whispered:

   "I've stopped drinking. Well, at least I won't drink outside of my home. I haven't thanked you for the last time, Mr. Black. Thank you for saving me."

   "Uh, I actually wanted to kidnap you and ask the Archmage to extort a sum of money."

  Black said maliciously:

   "But you were underage and covered in vomit so I gave up, my daughter is going to be like you in the future and I will definitely break her legs.

  It is really hard for your father to pull you so much by himself.

   Oh, by the way, when I was playing in Draenor, I saw your dad, he was a coward, you know? We were all dying at that time, and he wiped his tears and wrote a suicide note to leave you.

   He really cares about you. "

   "Oops, stop talking about that."

   Caitlin interrupted Blake's pirate joke reluctantly and embarrassedly. She took out her treasured admission letter from her pocket and handed it to Blake with both hands.

   pretended to cough a few times and introduced himself:

   "Your Excellency, the Master of Warlock Academy, I, Catelyn Ruinwiver, hereby apply to join the Warlock School of Nar'Thalas Academy, please approve admission."

   "Ah, this is out of my control."

  Blake grabbed his chin, shrugged indifferently and said:

   "I'm no longer the head of the Warlock School of Nar'Thalas Academy, and just a few days ago I did something that didn't have a good impact in Stormwind Kingdom.

   Although the matter has not spread yet, in order to draw a clear line with me, the senior management of Nartharas College has ordered my removal from all positions. Fortunately, the title of spellcaster that I have worked so hard to obtain has been retained.

  So you have to go to the current head of the academy, that is, His Excellency Thakiel the Great Initiator.

   Well, as the former head of the school, I still have some advice, such as entrance exams. "

   Having said that, the stinky pirate looked up and down at Catherine, who was nervous. He poked his face with his fingers, rolled his eyes and asked:

   "Can you cast spells?"

"Um."

   Caitlin said embarrassedly;

   "I will throw Fireball and Frostbolt, the others. I haven't had time to learn."

   "Are you seventeen?"

  Blake squinted his eyes and said:

   "Have another archmage father, did you learn fireball? Your talent is really bad, but luckily we warlocks don't talk about this, it's really great to learn something about Krypton Life.

   Let me ask you again, can you name more than three kinds of demons? "

"can!"

   Caitlin snapped her fingers and said:

   "Little devils, demon guards, succubuses, and um, hounds? Damn it! I've clearly recited that set of demon illustrations, but my mind is blank now. Maybe I'm excited when I meet someone I admire?"

"Um?"

   Black blinked.

   After a few seconds, he clapped his hands and said to the despairing Caitlin in front of him:

   "The talent is bad, the mentality is bad, and the spellcasting skills don't need to be read, it is probably bad, but it doesn't matter! Because you have mastered the best qualities of being a warlock.

   You know how to flatter others.

  You wink.

   And you are very discerning.

  I'm honored to have a place on your list of admirers, my dear little sister Caitlin, come and tell me in a whisper, who do you admire in your heart?

  If this ranking is high enough, I can consider giving you a few good words. "

   "Second."

   Caitlyn raised her hand and waved.

  Black nodded with satisfaction. He took out his magic pen, wrote his name on Caitlin's admission invitation, and returned it to the energetic girl.

He says:

   "Go, take it and report to the Warlock Tower.

  From today, you are a member of the warlocks full of darkness and glory. If you can survive the first three months, you will definitely have a great future. "

   "Thank you Captain!"

   Caitlin jumped up and shook her fist excitedly, but before leaving, she rolled her eyes and asked:

   "That. I actually want to join your fleet. I always wanted to be a heroic female pirate, just like the legendary Queen of the North Sea, Ms. Anne Bonn.

   I was going to be a warlock first, then a pirate, but now I realize, maybe I can be a warlock and a pirate at the same time?

  I beg you, Captain Black, my second most admired man, please grant this humble wish of your admirer. "

   "Your father will definitely be mad at your rebellious daughter."

   Black grinned and said:

   "But what does this have to do with me, a stinky pirate who doesn't want to get involved in other people's family conflicts? You want to join the fleet, right? Okay! For the sake of my bad mood today, I grant your **** wish."

   He took out a pirate emblem from his bosom, threw it to Caitlin, and said:

   "The North Sea Fleet just asked the Academy to send a group of warlocks to sit on the ship. It is said that it is because the annoying elf spellcasters always harass them with magic.

  You go to Beihai as one of them.

  If you survive the first naval battle, I will invite you to drink, the female pirate "Blade" Caitlin who is destined to be very powerful in the future. "

   "Huh huh!"

   Kaitlyn's eyes widened, she exclaimed:

   "How do you know the nickname I just gave myself?"

   "Because I'm a pirate prophet, you idiot!"

  Black drank the wine in his hand and scolded Caitlin:

   "Now, sailors, and new surgeons, go to your tower to take the course, and if you go down like this, I'll punish you for cleaning the deck!

   Oh, yes, this is for you. "

  The smelly pirate took out a good quality pirate machete inlaid with draenei gems from his luggage and threw it to Caitlin. He said:

   "You must protect yourself on a boat full of stinky men, Miss, if any **** is going to do something to you, use this thing to chop down the hardest part of their body.

   I mean head

  You must not think too much. "
