Azeroth Shadow Trail

   Chapter 1708 76. Item 1 of the investigation into the cause of the dock massacre: Hey, what is this button for?

   "I didn't expect that you actually won the demon by jumping gangs. I thought it was a funny story in the legend."

  When Dai Lin walked into the Hall of Heroes, she heard Blake say in a mocking voice:

   "The old fur seals at sea couldn't resist the urge to chop off a few heads with a knife even if they were among the stars. It seems that you never expected to be a good starship commander in your life."

   "But I won, and that leaves you speechless, my boy."

   Dai Lin stroked his beard that was scorched by the evil fire during the battle, he grinned, threw the captain's key in his hand to Black, waved his hand and said:

   "That ship is nice, but it's not for me, maybe I'm still not ready, or as you say, I don't expect to set foot in the sea of ​​stars in my life."

   "You just feel that the things you need to learn before becoming a captain give you a headache, and you just feel that you have been humiliated by a group of dwarfs."

  Blake laughed and walked to the exit of the hall. He whispered to Dai Lin:

   "But it's too late, old man, I've already signed you up for a Captain's Crash Course in Mechagon. After the war, you can honestly become a student. Do you need me to arrange a few fierce elves to be your schoolmates?

  You're welcome, I know you want it. "

   "I think you are itchy."

The admiral    scolded expressionlessly, but Black just gave him a defiant look and disappeared into the shadows under the dim sky of Valhalla.

   When Daelin turned around, Jarod was already introducing Varian about the next action plan.

   When he heard that a commander-in-chief was needed to lead the Ashes Crusade into Antorus to carry out a suicide rescue, the young emperor let out a sigh of relief and took up this important task without hesitation.

   He said seriously:

   "There is no one more suitable than me, Commander Jarod. Of course I need an adjutant. Perhaps Warlord Saurfang would like to support me in such an operation?"

   "No, Varian, you don't have enough prestige to lead such an army."

  Behind the emperor, Dai Lin shook her head and said:

   "You are more suitable as the commander of the human side of the raiding force.

   As for the most suitable candidate, I think it is the most suitable for the Stormrage Brothers who won the War of the Ancients and Lady Tyrande, the wife of Lord Malfurion.

   They have faced equally bad desperate situations, and at least in terms of experience, they are much richer than all of us. "

   "I don't think you should join this raid."

   His Majesty Faao spoke more directly, and the old man said with a serious expression:

"As an emperor, it's understandable that you want to show your courage, but the best thing you should do is to stay in the base camp to boost morale. You can kill a hundred demons alone, but the warriors inspired by you can easily kill them. ten times the enemy.

  Varian, you have to learn to use your identity.

   I will personally go to this raid. "

   "Ah, speaking of prestige, Your Majesty, shouldn't you stay here to boost morale?"

  Varian said with a headache:

   "How can the prestige of a foolish child be compared with that of His Holiness the Pope?"

   "Varian was right, Your Majesty."

  Dai Lin will speak up here:

"Your prestige and ability will be more useful to stay here than to fight with us, what's more, the emperor of mankind has always been known for his bravery, and if Varian can complete this attack and return victorious, his throne will only be more secure. "

"So be it."

   Jarod and the other three commanders exchanged glances, and he said firmly:

   "Call everyone from the Ash Crusade to Valhalla now! I have a map near the Burning Throne captured from the demons, and we need to hurry up and discuss the various points of the raid plan.

   After three days at the latest.

   Wait until the draenei ships bring the Aqir swarms of Draenor into the battlefields of Argus, and when our stretched forces are relieved, we shall go! "

—

  “mua~”

  The passionate kiss was released in the shadows of a floating island in the demon-surrounded terminal dock.

   Of course it’s just a taste, after all Maiev is very serious and serious when fighting.

  Although Black was very dissatisfied with this, he longed for some more in-depth communication to relieve the longing after not seeing him for several days, but Ms. Shadowsong decisively rejected this crazy proposal.

   "Nasa and the Moon Guards and the Veterans of the Watchers have buried Titan explosives on several ships near the dock these days, but this is almost the best we can do."

   Maiev stood in the shadow of this broken floating island, pointing to the large and small demon starships flying around in front of him, sometimes taking off and landing, and said to Black:

   "These ships far from the dock really have no chance of infiltration.

  The demons guarding this place are not only numerous but also very elite. They have strange fel devices on their ships that can dispel the shadows, making it impossible for us to sneak in shadows at all. "

"this is necessary."

  Black sat on the shadowy stone, reached out and patted Maiev's arm, looked at the busy terminal dock in front of him, and said:

   "Even in the Burning Legion, which has a large number of troops and never lacks cannon fodder, the Demon Starship Fleet is the most elite force, and they unleash more slaughter and destruction in the stars than the other demons combined.

  If it weren't for the existence of Star Souls in Azeroth, and if Sargeras didn't need Azeroth to remain intact, then 10,000 years ago these guys would have been enough to tear our world apart just by shooting from starships.

  Look!

  Kil'jaeden didn't care about the landing of the Anti-Magic and our little victory, as you can see from the orderly operation of the dock.

   They are constantly delivering weapons and ammunition to the fleet's starships, apparently ready to bombard us with full coverage when we're done assembling.

   Our resistance is a joke in the eyes of the deceiver, and it holds the power to destroy us at any time. "

   "Do you have a solution?"

   Maiev looked at Black while holding her helmet, and she said:

   "You have brought your people here, which means that this is your next goal. You must be able to come up with some strange ways, right?"

   "There is a way, yes."

  The pirate snorted, pointed to his cheek, and said to Maiev:

   "But I don't want to say it unless."

"you"

   Seeing that the pirates were so out of character, the warden was so angry that she could not wait to pick up the knife wheel and give this guy a knife.

   But after a few seconds, she still leaned down and kissed the pirate's cheek lightly, only to be hugged by Blake for a French kiss that lasted for several minutes.

   It wasn't until Maiev was panting that Blake let go of her, touched his bleeding lips again, and said:

   "That's right, you should be more enthusiastic to express your thoughts. Well, don't take a knife! Did I say it's not enough?"

  The pirate comforted Maiev, who had pulled out the sharp blade, and pointed to the ground that was shattered and directly connected to outer space. His eyes shone with the mysterious light of magic, and said:

   "Mimiron will be teleported to the Antoran Wastes with the last Iron Legion in the final teleport that will be completed at midnight today, and he will bring the Scepter of Sargeras by the way.

   I've contacted the most space-savvy stellar saints in the constellations, and with their help, I'm going to create a superspace storm in the terminal dock with the Scepter of Sargeras.

   Do you feel it?

   Even in Argus, where the space system has completely collapsed, the spatial structure of the terminal dock is particularly chaotic. The demons choose to build the dock because the spatial structure here will not interfere with the starship’s transition to various places.

   This is a huge advantage, for us as well.

   With evil creations like the Scepter of Sargeras, in a place like this, with a little preparation time, these starships loaded with weapons of destruction can be easily forcibly sent into every corner of the stars.

   Of course, with the sturdiness of demon starships, such a chaotic teleportation cannot destroy the main body of the starship, or even prevent them from traversing the stars back to Argus.

   But we bought time!

   By the time they slowly returned to Argus, the war was already over. "

  Blake patted Maiev's waist armor, squeezing his eyes and saying to his wife:

   "We don't need to destroy them, it's too much trouble, we just need to 'foul them out'.

   Of course, a space storm of this magnitude would certainly damage the Staff of Sargeras, and using Sargeras's artifact in Argus might attract the attention of the Dark Titan.

   But I can't handle so much now.

  Before the Sage and the Scepter of Sargeras were in place, we had to find the weakest spot in the Shattered Space of the Terminal Dock as the eye of tonight's big storm. "

   "Where is the weakest space?"

   Maiev nodded, pointed to the floating island under his feet and said:

   "That's it.

   I have already completed the exploration of this space a few days ago, but the mages said that they could not use the teleportation technique to teleport so many starships at one time, so I gave up this tactic. "

   "My wife is still the best, and I have the same heart."

  Blake laughed and got up and grabbed Mavy's slender waist from behind. His hands nimbly penetrated into Lady Shadowsong's breastplate, and whispered beside her sensitive long ears:

   "Look, now the most troublesome strategy has been determined, and the weak point of the space has been found. I have already separated the Uncrowned and the hunters to prepare for the midnight hunt.

   But it's still a little time until midnight, not as good as us."

   "Black!"

   At this "critical moment", the mechanical gnome communicator on the pirate's wrist suddenly sounded a prompt from Shaw, very serious.

He says:

   "Come here! We just saw a demon escorting the prisoner off the boat, and the prisoner is ours!"

"Um?"

  Black and Maiev looked at each other, and both saw the surprise in each other's eyes.

  The pirate raised his wrist and asked:

   "All the prisoners were rescued during the previous attack on Krokuun, how can there be? Do you see who it is?"

   "Ms. Sylvanas did the reconnaissance. She told me it was a dwarf and a pandaren, and I let Nathanos venture close and confirmed their identities."

  Shore sighed and said in a very tired tone:

   "It's Bronzebeard Prince Brian and Lorewalker Zhou Zhuo. They should be in Mac'Aree, but I don't know why they were caught here by demons. You have an idea.

  Do you want to save them? "

—

   "It's really bad luck."

  In a cage in the terminal dock, the wounded old dwarf Brian was hanging in the air by the cage hung by demon chains.

   It can be seen that this unlucky devil was severely taught by the vicious demons on the way to the Antoran Wasteland.

   The black and white mane of Zhou Zhuo, who was also hung up opposite him, was also covered with blood, and his injuries were even more serious than that of the old dwarf. Brian's monkey pet, Grieb, was not abused.

   But this little guy was also tied out of the cage with a chain around his neck, which would be chattering.

  It wasn't abused, of course, not because the demons were animal protectionists, but simply because the demons didn't bother to teach a stupid monkey, but Grieb's fate was doomed.

  Because the greedy demon had already ordered its head for dinner, the **** demon said that he wanted to taste the taste of monkey brains.

   "Lao Zhou, Lao Zhou, are you still alive? Squeak."

  Brian's hands and feet were shackled, he couldn't move at all in the cage, his face was covered in blood, he lay beside the cage, and shouted to the silent Lorewalker:

   "Did you leave a signal to our people? Will they come to save us? What the hell, isn't there no more demons on the seat of the Triumvirate?

  Why the two of us were caught by a group of demons as soon as we stepped in.

  Fortunately, I have the brains to tell them that we have information in our hands, otherwise we will be killed on the spot, but it can’t be hidden for long, I know some demon language, and I heard them say that they have gone to ask the Soul Demon Inquisitor.

  We can be hard-mouthed, but our souls can't stand this kind of questioning. Once they find us useless, we're both finished.

  Old Zhou!

   Say something, hello, are you still alive? "

   "Poof"

   Lorewalker Zhou Zhuo was beaten badly because when he was caught by the demon before, he wanted to block the demon and let Brian run first, but the two guys couldn't run at all.

   The old dwarf boasted that he could lift a demon's skull with a shotgun, but it turned out he couldn't.

But Zhou Zhuo was still conscious despite the pain. The reason he didn't answer was because he couldn't speak right now. Old Zhou looked around to make sure that no demons were paying attention near the cage. Something spit out.

   That thing collided twice between the cage and the ground, and finally landed in front of the screaming monkey Grieb. It was a lockpicker stained with panda slobber and blood.

   is a special tool used by high-level thieves of the Jade Lotus Gang to sneak out and pick locks. As a wanderer and archaeologist, Lao Zhou also occasionally uses this tool.

   "Ha, as expected of you, Lao Zhou!"

Brian immediately widened his eyes when he saw this scene. He suppressed his voice and cheered, and hurriedly shouted to the pet monkey under his feet. Grieb followed the old dwarf to the north and south a lot. It moved in an instant, the chain around its neck caught it, but the monkey reached out with its flexible tail and rolled the lock pick in its own hands.

   It crept up into Brian's cage and handed the thing to the old dwarf.

  The latter gritted his teeth and began to untie his handcuffs and shackles. Although he didn't understand why Old Brian, a world-famous explorer and archaeologist, was so skilled with thieves' tools, now is not the time to think about it.

   A few minutes later, the old dwarf opened the shackles and the cage for himself, and by the way, he also loosened the chain on the neck of the monkey pet. He jumped to Lao Zhou's cage and quickly helped him open the lock.

   The seriously injured pandaren fell to the ground and was helped by Brian. The two guys immediately wanted to run, but they walked back to the cage door and glanced back rationally.

   There are too many demons at the door!

   rushing out like this is completely courting death, they must find another way.

   "I don't think we have to run, Brian."

   Lao Zhou leaned against the cage and said out of breath:

   "We can't run away, there are so many demons here, and it's not so easy for someone to save us. Now everyone is fighting demons, so the two of us can't hold back.

   Why don't we fight!

   Did you see it on the way you were being escorted over? It's not far from the control tower where the demons come in and out, and we rushed over and tried to destroy it.

   At least make some contribution to the coalition.

   This is also the chivalrous pursuit of our pandaren.

   Maybe it's time. "

The    old dwarf fell silent, and after a few seconds, he said:

   "It's not that I'm afraid of death, but how do we get there? Our two sick children will definitely be killed by those demons as soon as we go out. Hey, why is it so messy outside?"

  Brian heard an explosion in the distance.

   He rushed to the door and glanced at it, then came back with round eyes and shouted to Lao Zhou:

   "The demons' spaceships exploded, and they all went over there."

  The two guys fell silent at the same time.

   The next moment, they got up and rushed out the door.

   Whatever the reason for the explosion outside, this is definitely their last chance.
