Azeroth Shadow Trail

   Chapter 179 87. Booty Coast · First Impressions

The   Nagfar holds good things hidden in the cabins, no doubt about that.

  Blake remembered very clearly that in his game career, many quest chains had to pass through the Nagfar, which occupied an important position in the Valhalla system built by Odin.

   Along with Hela's betrayal, they fell into **** together.

   It is completely a witness of that past history. As a bystander, it has witnessed the grievances and grievances between Odin and Hela, the guardian companions and father and daughter.

  Blake is not surprised to find anything on this ship, it just depends on whether the Nagfar is willing to share his "collection" with him.

   The process of "fishing" this ship is already very difficult, and catching it is just the beginning, and then it is not so easy to gain the favorability of this legendary warship.

   Let it "eat" is just the first step.

   Fortunately, Blake's hard work has now paid off.

  The pirate looked at the large shield in his hand, and the string of entries with red dots in orange jumped in front of his eyes:

   The Power of Odin: Shyvana's Asylum

  Legendary quality.【Divinity】

   Extraordinary toughness. Extraordinary block.

   With special effects:

   One. The King of God is here:

   When faced with the negative energy impact with divinity, apply the state of [Shyvana's Asylum] to the user, and save all negative effects no higher than Odin's divine power.

   2. Ragnarok:

  When holding this shield to face all divine enemies that are not in the Titan Guardian system, apply the state of [Odin's Power] to the user, and all soul attack damage is invalid.

   3. Contempt:

   This is the round shield that has followed the king of the gods for most of his life. While contaminating it with divinity, it is also imbued with the arrogance and contempt of the king of gods.

   It shouldn't be on the battlefield of mortals.

   Therefore, in the face of non-divine enemies, this shield will not produce any defensive effect, and at the same time will apply the negative state of [Coward] to the user, making it into an extremely weak state that cannot move an inch.

  Item Description:

   Hela had figured out all of Odin's tricks before betrayal.

   She was so afraid of the power of this shield that on the eve of her betrayal, she personally stole it from the glorious Hall of Valor and hid it in the Nagfar.

  When the glorious Valhalla fortress was sealed by the traitors, if Odin could hold the shield that accompanied him for most of his life, then Hela's mad betrayal would likely enter another sad ending.

   It will undoubtedly protect you through all adversity.

   But also beware of the wrath of the God-king.

  Odin, the scrupulous, does not like others to use his weapons without permission.

   "Cooool!"

  Blake whistled, held the full-body round shield with both hands, and made a shield strike forward. The degree of completion of the action was very high, and the large shield gave people an extremely sense of security.

   He satisfactorily put the round shield in his luggage.

   Although the conditions of use of this shield are harsh.

In most cases, it can't help the pirates, but with such a thing at the bottom of the box, Black can have more confidence in the face of all the gods and ghosts. .

   "I won't die so easily, don't worry, little guy."

  Black looked back at the dark and empty cabin behind him, he said to the invisible ship spirit in front of him:

   "Even if something happens to me, I will choose a good master for you before I die, and I won't let you fall into that horrible and disgusting place of hell.

  Hella don't want to take you away again.

   You don't like that crazy woman with bad taste either, right? "

   Ship Spirit did not answer.

   It was silent as always.

   But being able to give this shield to Black proves that it really has a grudge against Hela, even though Hela is actually its first owner.

   But look at it now.

  It was reduced to this rotten and weak posture, all thanks to Hela!

   It used to be so beautiful, so mighty, so solemn, escorted by Odin's golden Valkyries riding star-lit pegasus, to and fro between the world and the underworld in the sound of horns and drums.

   carried the warriors among the mortals, and sent them to the rainbow bridge of endless glory, and set foot on the glorious Valhalla with the horn of Valar sounded by Heimdall.

   Now, it has become a posture that is inferior to this sewer rat.

   If it wasn't for the second owner, Hablon, who protected it in hell, it would probably have sunk in the salt water **** of **** long ago.

   And if the Nagfar will curse.

   It must have greeted Hela good morning, good afternoon and good night every day in the "hometown dialect" of the vrykul people for the past hundreds of thousands of years.

   But those are over.

  Black found the psychic oak of the world for it to complete the replacement of the decaying hull.

  Although the quality of the oaks produced in the mortal world is definitely not as good as the wood blessed by Freya, the guardian of life, it is a good start.

   As long as Black lives on, it will be restored to its former glory one day.

   "Go, when you come back, you will be beautiful."

  Ten minutes later, on the side of the Nagfar, the pirates patted the bulkhead of the ghost ship, said goodbye to it, and then turned back and handed the pirate Longsefer the head of the ship as a symbol.

   He warned:

   "First mate, have a snack, don't scratch my boat."

  Sefir gestured OK to Black.

  Blake jumped into the boat moored on the water below, and while waving goodbye, he watched the sinister keel ghost ship sink into the sea little by little.

   is like an underwater shadow bone dragon.

  After sinking, he changed direction and dived towards the deep sea.

   "Ah, this weird feeling."

  Blake stood on the swaying boat, stroking his heart, and said to Maim and the dog-legged evil eye who were holding the paddle beside him:

   "It's like an old parent watching their child leave home alone for the first time. It's heartbreaking. You must not understand. You are just a bunch of dirty and incompetent stinky pirates."

   "Captain, you are also one of our members, and you are still our head."

   Maim, who had burns on his face, said quietly while paddling:

   "To humiliate us is to scold yourself."

"Humph."

  Blake raised his chin arrogantly, disdain to argue with his sharp-toothed subordinates.

  In the dark night under the moon, the boat was rowed by two orcs, and in the rough waves, they sent their captain to rest on the Alpaca not far away.

The crews of the three troll warships    Black Teeth, Black Hand and Mysterious Mistress were busy all night, moving things like ants to three smaller smaller merchant ships.

   Tomorrow morning, they will return to the civilized world of the Eastern Continent.

  Really, it makes people look forward to it.

—

   "It's really a natural harbor, and the goblins really had a lot of **** to find such a place."

   In the early morning of the second day, on the stern of the Alpaca, Blake was akimbo, looking out at the Treasure Coast in front of him.

  The city as a whole is in an irregular U-shape.

   On both sides are the Gurubashi Mountains that spread from Stranglethorn Valley to the coastline, like the arms of the mountains reaching out to the ocean, forming two natural barriers, holding a pool of sea water in their arms.

   These two towering mountains block the impact of the sea breeze and waves, so that the harbor will not have big waves all year round.

   As the two mountains go inward, a coastline nearly 100 kilometers long is bent and extended.

   looks like a huge lagoon.

  The goblins don't need to spend any more manpower and material resources to build the foundation of the city. They build a circle of cities around the harbor on the mountain based on the steep slopes formed by the geological evolution of thousands of years.

  Blake looked ahead, from one end of the coast to the other, covered with densely packed low-rise buildings, stacked layer by layer in this bay.

  The one closest to the periphery, of course, is the pier.

   A circle of wading trestle bridges are built with stones and wood, and according to different places, dozens of piers are scattered into the sea.

   Most of the buildings in this circle are where ships dock and unload cargo, and it is also the place with the densest and most cluttered people.

  Many refugees who escaped from the war work here as coolies to make a living.

  They don't have the money to live in cities far from the coast, so they can only build their own shacks outside these messy low and cramped piers.

  Because there are too many people, the first floor buildings on Booty Coast have no plan and are densely connected, like a slum with uneven heights and disorder.

   As the Alpaca slowly sailed into this huge, lively and chaotic harbor, not only Blake, but other people on board also saw the whole picture of this goblin city.

   "What race is that? Their beards are so long that they are mopping the floor, and the sound is so loud that it sounds like thunder. Hey, there are little guys arguing over there!

   There really is a race in this world that is shorter than our foxmen! "

   The quartermaster Eudora swung her big tail, lying beside the railing of the poop, looking curiously at the noisy city in front of her.

   She saw a lot of drunk people on the pier, laying in some places to bask in the sun, and no one cared about them, and many people were leisurely fishing in the early morning sun.

   And some of the sailors were singing, and the singing was terrible.

   But still made Eudora's big ears stand up and sway to the rough singing.

   The quartermaster's big eyes are full of excitement that can't be seen enough.

  In the desolate Wharton Desert, there is no such a lively city. The ancestral tortoise collector Kou Qiao beside her also showed a curious expression.

  The Turtle Man stuck his head out and looked into the depths of the pier, just in time to see a group of barefooted human beings fighting with the local trolls, he turned his head and said to Black, who was smoking a pipe:

   "It's very similar to Boralus Harbor. It's just as noisy and vibrant. But it's more... how to say it's more 'vigorous' than the harbor in your hometown."

   "The goblins only care about making money, and they welcome anyone who can bring them wealth. More than half of the pirates in the South China Sea visit here every year to sell their stolen goods and do business here."

  Blake was also lying on the railing, looking at the bay in front of him with a nostalgic look, he whispered:

   "Kul Tiras' fleet abides by the agreement with the rich man Rivigaz, and seldom patrols the waters near Booty Bay. Therefore, for pirates, Booty Bay is also a good place to shelter from the limelight.

  There are many retired old pirates living here, they often gather in the bar to brag and chat and recall the past.

   But they are a bunch of cowards, and true pirates don't retire.

   We will come here often in the future.

   Eudora, you can separate some tribes and register a trading company in Booty Bay. It is easy to do business here, but it is also very dangerous.

  This city has no bottom line, I will leave some unsuitable troll exiles as guards for your clan. "

"OK!"

   Eudora nodded hilariously, she twitched her tail and said:

   "My clansmen will definitely like this noisy place, Captain, look at it, our water rat gang will definitely make a name for it here.

  Huh. What happened to that statue? "

  The fox man stretched out his claws and pointed suspiciously at the huge statue built on an island reef in the middle of the bay.

   It is a giant sculpture more than 50 meters high, but it is not a hero or a legendary story character, but a vivid goblin stone sculpture.

   didn’t even paint, he used gray-white stone to carve out the goblin’s pointed face with monkey cheeks, and put on a treacherous smile on his thin face.

   Bare eight teeth, round eyes, facing the city of Booty Bay, and spread his hands.

   I don’t know if it’s deliberately funny.

   The movement of this goblin statue is deliberately made into the sacred posture of the priests of the Holy Light when they pray, but it is matched with the strange smiling face of the stone sculpture, which makes the sculpture full of irony.

   "How could someone put such an ugly statue in front of their city?"

   Eudora looked back at her omniscient captain, she wagged her tail and said:

   "Is this some eccentric custom of the goblins?"

   "Well, that thing is awesome."

  Black rubbed his chin and looked at the huge goblin sculpture, he said meaningfully:

   "Don't look at it ugly, it's the most valuable treasure in Booty Bay. Take it down, my quartermaster, when you're free later, come over at an opportunity and bring it back in its entirety.

   We are about to make another windfall. "
