Azeroth Shadow Trail

   Chapter 1524 157. Good day! Dafan, this is a great sacrifice! —Add [1125]

  At the same time that Black walked out of Dean Blue Moon's mage tower, a merchant ship flying the flag of the Wharton Trading Company was also slowly docking at Tol Barad Harbor.

   The timing was just right, which fully demonstrated the super strength of the fox people in the shipping industry.

   After receiving Black's order, they immediately sent people to Westfall, reached a cooperation intention with the Mason Brotherhood with super high efficiency, and invited the leader of the Brotherhood to come to Tol Barad to interview Lord Black.

   Originally, the pirates wanted to invite pandaren masons from Pandaria.

   Those black and white billows are also amazing in the art of carving, and even surpass the human stonemason brotherhood in terms of stonemasonry attainments.

  Unfortunately, considering the inside story of this mission, it is not suitable for pandaren who respect nature and regard death as a kind of reincarnation.

   Mainly because they are afraid that the trolls who have always been self-cultivating and self-cultivation will not be able to accept the cruel truth of the force of death for a while.

   Well, in terms of the civilized traditions of the rolling people, this matter may really disappoint them in the world.

  Fortunately, the members of the Mason Brotherhood are also very strong. Those who have seen the new Stormwind City with their own eyes are all impressed by the masons' powerful skills, imaginative imagination and design ability.

   Besides, the Mason Brotherhood is not an outsider to Black.

  Since Silithus showed Pope Fao and the Kaldorei elves the magic of the sin monument, orders for tombstones from the Mason Brotherhood continued to pour in.

   This time, these simple masons thought that there was a war on the elves, so that the sales of tombstones were so good?

   Of course, after a long time, even the dumber people realize that so many custom-made tombstones are definitely not used in the traditional funeral industry.

   But considering that the profit brought by the sin monument has already made the Mason Brotherhood a lot of money, and this matter involves the secrets of the Church of the Holy Light, the masons did not pursue it too much.

   They are just an organization composed of a group of craftsmen and veterans to keep warm. Everyone is working to support their families. It is unnecessary to think about the secrets of too many big people except to talk about the mountains after a meal.

  There is really that time. Wouldn’t it be better to go to the pub in Yuexi Town for a drink? I heard that the new pole dancers there are really hot.

   "Thank you for helping me reimburse the ticket!"

On the docks in Tol Ballard, dressed in an architect's uniform, carrying a half-worn suitcase, and with the gentlemanly-mannered head of the Brotherhood of Masons, the great mason, Mr. Edwin VanCleef, strode across the board with vigor Landing on the trestle, he turned around and waved goodbye to the foxes on the boat behind him.

   he cried:

   "When you stop at Long Beach next time, remember to come to Yuexi Town. I'll invite you to drink. Your wine and mason fraternity is all inclusive. Lively little guys."

   The big stonemason's shout immediately caused the fox sailors to burst into a burst of enthusiastic cheers and whistles, which means that the big stonemason who also has business dealings with Wharton Trading Company is a person who is very good at dealing with people.

   He is shrewd and a qualified leader.

   And in addition to being a skilled stonemason and presiding over the rebuilding of Stormwind with a group of his brothers, Mr. VanCleef was a veteran and a fighting hero himself.

   During the period of the fall of Stormwind Kingdom, Van Cleef had been leading the brothers of the Brotherhood to fight guerrillas in the northern border. At least seventeen or eight orcs died under his sword.

   For a warrior who came from an ordinary person, this is already quite a remarkable record.

   However, because of the scars left by the battle, the big mason will wear very formal clothes on any occasion, and he obviously does not want others to see his scarred body.

Van Cleef had just stepped out of the pier, and was about to take a rest in the very famous pirate town of Losberg, and then go to see Lord Black, but before he could get out of the bustling pier, he saw a carriage parked on the road. side.

   An orc warlock who was blind in one eye was sitting in the driver's seat, whistling to the passing ladies, and beside him there was a giant magician squatting on the ground and eating melon seeds.

   and a sombre-faced human warlock with a staff and playing with a black skeleton pipe.

  This peculiar trio doesn't look like a good guy at first glance, but it's such a distinct feature that Van Crick recognizes the three guys right away.

   He had seen the descriptions of these three guys on page 5 of MI7's list of important people.

   He remembered the official description of the Warlock trio from Stormwind:

   Extremely dangerous, cunning, immoral and shameless. When dealing with them, you should be careful and vigilant. Once you are targeted, you should immediately reveal your identity as an agent.

   Well, I forgot to mention it.

   In addition to being a veteran and a mason, Edwin Van Cleef is also a senior MI7 "hidden stake", in their jargon, a senior "little finger".

   But unlike other "little thumbs" who can be sacrificed at any time, Van Cleef is thriving in this cruel system, and he is now almost one of MI7's leaders in the Wild West.

   But recently Mr. Van Cleef was considering whether to quit the official organization that would benefit him a lot because his wife was pregnant.

   Considering that he is about to have a son or daughter, Van Cleef, who has spent nearly ten years on the battlefield, feels that he is really struggling.

   "Are the three waiting for me here?"

   Van Cleef adjusted his clothes, stepped forward and took the initiative to say to the trio of bored warlocks:

   "I'm Edwin VanCleef, the leader and representative of the Mason Brotherhood, and I've come to discuss with Lord Black about the renovation of the No. 13 Teaching Laboratory Building at Nar'Thalas Academy of Magic."

   "Well, it's you."

  The evil eye who was hooking up with an orc female pirate immediately turned his head when he heard this. He looked up and down Van Cleef with his one eye, and finally showed an evil smile that made the veteran want to draw his sword on the spot.

   He pointed to the carriage and said:

   "Go in, the boss asked us to take you directly to his office, hehe, it's a big job, you're lucky."

   "Hide your little dagger, Mr. VanCleef."

  The giant magician Zaraq opened the car door for Van Crick and warned in a low voice:

   "The knives you hide in your boots and the guns in your suitcase can't hide from us, I just remind you, don't perform your tricks in front of the boss.

   We all know what you did on the borders of Gilneas during the war years, but that's not enough to keep your island safe.

   But as long as you are obedient, you are much safer here than in your home. "

   VanCleef raised his brows, he shrugged, and responded to the troll's warning with a gentle smile, but at the same time he got into the spacious carriage, Kanrisad, who was also a human, also got in.

The skinny boy was sitting in the chair opposite Van Cleef. As Evil Eye and Zarak started discussing the **** topic of which is better, Succubus or Destroyer, Kanrisad also took out a small box from his luggage. Silently handed it to Van Cleef.

  The big mason took the box in surprise, opened it, and a burst of jewels illuminated his eyes.

   Good guy!

   A box of cut gems has seven different colors, and they are placed together according to the colors of the rainbow.

   With the great mason's appreciative ability, he could see at a glance that this was a perfect gem cut by the best jeweler. If he could find a gold chain and set it on, he could sell it at a high price in Stormwind City.

"This is?"

  The big mason looked at Kanrisad in amazement, the latter pulled his hood to cover his eyes, and only showed a weird smile under the hood.

   He said in a hoarse voice:

   "This is the birth gift from the captain to your daughter who is about to be born. The captain said that he will never let his partners suffer, especially an excellent craftsman like you.

  You must accept it.

   This is also a reward for the Mason Brotherhood's perfect completion of the work of carving the sin monument in the past period of time. It is a personal reward for your excellent leadership. "

   The skinny boy paused. He glanced at Van Cleef, whose complexion changed slightly. He coughed a few times and said:

   "Of course, you can also regard them as a kind of encouragement. The next job the captain will give you is very important, not only the construction of the laboratory building of the college, but also a private job that needs to be completed by you and the excellent masons.

  You know the rules. Need I stress it again? "

   "No, no need."

   Van Cleef closed the box and put it in his suitcase.

  He couldn't refuse the goodwill from Blake Shaw here, it would cause him terrible trouble, and under the gloomy gaze of the thin boy, Lord Van Cleef whispered:

   "During work, you shouldn't ask, don't look at it, don't touch what you shouldn't touch, and don't take what you shouldn't take. Please rest assured, Your Excellency Black, our Mason Brotherhood is absolutely professional!"

"very good!"

   Kanrisad nodded with satisfaction. He took out a pandaren lunch box from the dark compartment of the carriage like magic, and handed it to VanCleef, saying:

   "Then take a break, Mr. Edwin, do you need something to eat? There may be some physical work to do later."

"Um?"

—

   "Oh, Dafan is here."

  In Black's office in the Warlock Academy, Black, wearing a warlock robe, warmly received Edwin VanCleef, who had just finished a pirate-style feast.

Yes!

  After a long wait, the Warlock Academy finally has its own teaching area, and finally there is no need to teach in the dilapidated watchtower on the North Island.

   This is a good thing for the warlocks who have always been treated unfairly.

   However, Mr. Van Cleef could only smile bitterly in response to this unique title. Although this was the first time he had really met Lord Black, the two had exchanged letters before.

  Blake was very stubborn to call Van Cleef "Great Fan", but the mason corrected it several times, but he could only let it go.

   But until now, he didn't know what the "big fan" of the stinky pirate actually meant?

   Maybe a nickname on the Kul Tiras side?

   "Hello, Lord Black."

   Van Cleef saluted Blake, took a letter from his bosom, handed it to the pirate, and said:

   "This is the letter that Lord Shore asked me to transmit."

  Well, there is no need to disguise your identity in front of Blake. Everyone in this field knows that the Uncrowned Master in front of him is the most knowledgeable person in the entire world.

  People even knew that Van Cleek was about to have a child, and they predicted the gender of the child in advance, which made Van Cleef, a veteran, really can’t think of confrontation in front of the pirates.

   How can a mortal be against a prophet?

   "Oh, I'm here as soon as I come, and I have to bring a letter. This Xiao Er is Xun, and he knows that he is tossing his subordinates. He is really a bad boss."

  Blake complained, and threw it on the table without reading the letter. He picked up his pipe again, and winked at Evil Eye and Zarak who were standing at the door. The two warlocks immediately exited and closed the door.

  When only Black and Van Cleef were left in the large office, the pirate said:

   "Have you brought your carving tools?"

   "Well, take it, this is the guy who eats."

Van Cleef laughed. He had been reminded by Canrisad before that he knew that this time he might have to do a job on the spot. After hearing the pirate's question, Da Fan took off his coat and folded it, and folded his own. The suitcase opened, revealing the neat carving tools inside.

   There are seven stone carving knives of different specifications, and you can see from the shape and metal texture that these are all fine tools handmade by dwarf masters.

   worthy of being an officially certified mason, this set of tools alone is expensive enough.

   "That's fine, carve something for me, and let me see your craftsmanship."

  Black picked up the Sargeras scepter placed on the side of the table and waved, and a very strange birdman sculpture was teleported to Van Cleef.

   There is also a very fine stone that has been cut into a square shape.

  The pirate exhaled a smoke ring, pointed to the birdman sculpture with tail and horns, and said to the frowning Van Cleef:

   "Carve according to it. You don't have to carve to perfection. You can carve with the master craftsmanship of the Brotherhood of Masons, and it doesn't have to be exactly the same.

   I mean, I'll give you five hours to carve whatever you can by evening. "

   "Uh, your request"

   Dafan does not resist working, but as a craftsman, he has his own ethics.

   He shook his head, stepped forward, and professionally measured various parameters of the bird man stone sculpture with his hands, picked up the blueprint and drew a few strokes, then turned back and said to the pirate:

   "Give me ten hours and I can carve a replica with a degree of restoration of over 80%."

"Do not!"

  Black shook his head and refused:

   "Only five hours, you carve as hard as you can.

  Relax, Dafan, this is not a test of your skill, I just need to prove to one of my guests that our stonemasons in Azeroth are capable of some complex tasks.

   That's all. "

After   , the pirate was still close to Dafan and whispered to him:

   "Do it well, it will be beneficial, believe me, this is really big business, if you can take over this job, the Mason Brotherhood will become one of the important forces in this world.

   Even in the future, like Dalaran, it is not impossible to have a city of its own.

  Speaking of which, I have already prepared the invitation letter for the psychic school's structural instructor, and now I am waiting to sign it. This is a good opportunity to truly leap to the sky and cross the class barrier.

   Remember my words, you don't need to be very precise, but you must carve out the 'Shen Yun'. "

  The smelly pirate reminded before leaving:

   "I know this may be hard for you to understand, but make sure to treat them like living creatures, and trust me, it's not going to do you any harm."
