Azeroth Shadow Trail

   Chapter 206 25. Affair? Yan fart!

   "I still think it's a bit too risky for us to do this. Looking at this chick's dress, she might be a mage."

   Under the darkness of the night, a fearful voice sounded in the dark alleys of Dalaran City, with a bit of cowardice and uncertainty, but he was just getting up when he was interrupted by another rough voice:

   "Go back to the countryside if you're afraid! It was a mistake to bring you here."

   "That's right, we finally got mixed in with the workers, sneaked into Dalaran, and we had to make some money before going back. Damn greenskin burned down my farm, and my whole family was waiting for dinner.

   She is the best mage!

   Who doesn't know that the mages are the richest! "

   There is another voice helping.

   The coward who started talking was pushed and almost sat on the ground, but he didn't dare to resist, so he could only get up, lowered his head, and continued to move forward with his accomplices.

   In this small alley, these guys in civilian clothes are carrying the chick who was unconscious in the bar and was still covered in vomit.

   They cheered each other up as they walked.

   It doesn’t look like he’s a repeat offender either.

   Each one of them was very hard, and they were actually shaking.

   "Look, her bracelet is made of gold!"

   A little guy roughly took off the bracelet from the chick's wrist, bit it in his mouth, and said to his companions with a surprised look:

   "If you buy this thing, everyone in our village can get a lot of money."

   "Lower your voice! You bastard, we're done with the mages!"

   Someone scolded him again, and then said:

   "Hurry up, hide her at our place first, send her out of the city tomorrow, and let her go after you get the money, or just... what are you doing!"

   Before the guy with an idea could finish speaking, he saw his accomplice stretch out his hand impatiently and touch the chick's neck.

   But not to do bad things.

   "Look at her necklace! It's made of precious stones, it must be very valuable!"

   The guy's outstretched fingers were shaking.

   Probably had never seen such a luxurious pendant, and wanted to remove the sapphire pendant from the unconscious chick's neck.

   But before he touched the thing, with a swoosh, a black shadow stabbed towards the guy's arm.

   Blood splattered, making him want to scream in pain.

   But before he could shout, a man jumped out of the shadow behind him, and a knife hit the guy's neck, causing him to roll over his eyes and fall to the ground.

   The gold bracelet with the teeth marks in his arms also rolled out.

   "I thought it was something bad happened, but I didn't realize it was a group of little thieves. Not only are they not skilled, but their knowledge is far worse."

   Trailing their Black all the way out of the floating shadows.

   Grabbing the worn hilt with his left hand, he poured a little magic into it.

  The one-meter-long flaming blade popped out with a "swoosh", and it was burning brightly, illuminating the darkness of the dark alley, and also frightened the few thieves in front of him to shiver.

   The guy pointed at by his blade raised his hands suddenly.

   The ankle of the chick in his hand slammed to the ground with a bang, and several people almost threw the drunk chick out, but they didn't know how much she drank.

   Such an impact did not wake her up.

   There were five little thieves in total, one was stunned by Black, and the remaining four were instantly frightened.

   When they saw that they had done bad things, they were all terrified.

   did not dare to say anything.

   "You guys are really bold. You don't know anything, so you dare to touch a magic necklace, aren't you afraid of it exploding?"

  Black glanced at the sapphire pendant on the girl's neck on the ground.

   He could feel the magic wave on it, but the little girl in the robe was not a mage herself, and she didn't have any magic power on her.

  The pirate said helplessly:

   "And you can tell by looking at her clothes, she must have something to do with the mage, you still dare to take risks, or in Dalaran City, how should I evaluate you?

   is a tiger?

   is still impatient, so you are courting death? "

   He looked at the four people in front of him and the unconscious guy.

   They were wearing shabby clothes, and they didn't look like the residents of Dalaran City. From their conversation just now, they should be workers recruited by the mages from outside the city.

  Not all wizards live in the Dalaran city-state.

   Since it is a city-state, there are naturally civilians living here, but in a place where mages are absolutely dominant, civilians are naturally excluded from the mainstream of the city-state.

  The areas where they usually operate are mostly in the towns and villages outside the city, and there are many such civilian gathering areas in the plains by the lake of Lordamere.

   Under normal circumstances, they would not have anything to do with Master Masters.

   However, Dalaran was attacked by the red dragon driven by the dragon-mawed orcs before, and the city was somewhat damaged. Naturally, it was necessary to recruit some workers to repair it.

  The noble masters of the masters will definitely not wipe the mud by themselves.

"grown ups."

   The head of the four farmers saw that the situation was not good, and saw that Blake was dressed as a merchant, not like a mage in the city, so he gritted his teeth and said boldly:

   "We can't help it either.

  When those greenskins attacked this side, they burned our farm. The mages in Dalaran were supposed to protect us, and we paid them taxes every year.

   But they didn't.

  We are penniless now, and the whole family is waiting to eat, and we depend on working for the masters, which can’t support us at all, neither do we.”

   "Well, the classic bad guy's rhetoric, to do bad things is to be forced helplessly."

  Black waved his hand, put away his weapon, and helped the chick on the ground.

  Well, she has a good figure, covered by a large robe, but I didn't realize that this little girl has such a good figure. And he looks pretty good too, quite handsome.

  It's a pity that she's an alcoholic, you can tell from the smell that this little girl can drink a lot tonight.

   The amount of alcohol is good.

  He helped the little girl who could hardly stand, and said to the people in front of him:

   "I'm too lazy to talk to you, and I'm not interested in doing justice. I just saved you once. God knows what will happen after the magic necklace is activated.

get out.

   You better pray this chick is drunk enough to remember tonight.

  Otherwise you will be in big trouble. "

   Seeing that the guy in front of him did not intend to pursue further investigations, the four temporarily foolish farmers immediately thanked him a lot, and were about to leave while supporting their stunned companion.

   But they didn't take a few steps before they were stopped by Black.

"Hey."

  The pirate looked disgusted, and held the little girl with vomit in her arms with one hand.

   He said to the four farmers:

   "You said just now that the nearby farms were all burned by orcs. You are in urgent need of money to support your family? Are there many displaced people like you?"

   "Many, several towns are starving to death now."

  The daring farmer replied bitterly:

   "The kings are going to chase the greenskins to fight and take revenge. We don't complain, but they also confiscated grain for the army, and now the farm is gone.

us"

   "Well, interesting."

  Blake blinked, ignoring the peasants who had been foolish for a while because of the embarrassment of life in front of him, turned around and walked into the dark alley.

After a few minutes.

"Ding"

  Two gold coins were dropped on the bar of the largest hotel in Dalaran, "Magic Hotel". Blake supported the drunk girl and said to the bartender in front of him:

   "Open a room, and then help me get this little alcoholic in. She should be a local and should have something to do with a mage in the city, so I'll leave it to you.

is that OK? "

   "Of course no problem, sir."

   Those who can open hotels in Dalaran are all businessmen who often deal with mages.

   The bartender knew the situation as soon as he saw the robe on the chick.

   He called a waitress and helped the little girl to the second floor. When he turned around, Blake was nowhere to be seen.

—

   "What kind of affair is this TM? Is it so casual that you, this little pond, fulfill your wishes?"

  Beside the Wishing Fountain, Blake, dressed in a businessman's clothes, kicked the pillar of the pond.

   He cursed in a low voice:

   "That little alcoholic is still a minor, bastard!

   I know the appearance of you ghosts and ghosts, they are not reliable at all! Or go to Quel'Thalas someday, tie a few elves back, and imitate the pride of my old man. "

   After scolding, the pirate adjusted his collar and looked left and right. Right next to the Wishing Fountain, he looked left and right at the different signboards in the shops on both sides.

   "Battle witch, not this one! Magic weapon, uh, I've been there just now, and it's full of bluffing junk stuff. Brilliant grocery store, um, this is it."

  The pirate looked at the small shop next to him, carrying a suitcase, and stepped forward.

   pushed the door open and activated the small doorbell on the door to vibrate. It was already dark, and a young red-haired male employee in the store was dozing off in front of the counter.

   After being awakened, he rubbed his eyes and looked at the customers who entered the store with a dissatisfied expression.

   "Hi Jack, how have you been?"

  Black asked the young man in front of him.

   The latter looked at him suspiciously, but did not answer. He put his left hand under the counter, probably clasping some kind of weapon fixed there.

  The pirates didn't waste time either, waving a shot.

The    Assassin emblem swirled and landed on the table in front of the employee, who was stunned for a moment, then quickly and dexterously put away the emblem to identify it, and gave Blake a wink.

   took him into the small living room next to him, and closed the door cautiously.

   Then he turned back and said:

   "Since you appeared in Booty Bay a few days ago, many people in the organization have been inquiring about you. But few people can think that the famous 'Orc Killer' has come to Dalaran."

   called Jack's intelligence agent, brought Blake a cup of tea, and said to him with a touch of respect:

   "Mr. Black, there is something I must tell you.

   After you reappeared, Ms. Passonia gave orders to intelligence points all over the northern border. If we encounter you, we will inform you to join the alliance's pursuit of the Horde as soon as possible. "

   "Mother Shaw?"

  Black held the teacup elegantly and said to the Ravenholdt intelligence officer in Dalaran in front of him:

   "Please bring a word to Granny Shaw for me, I may have less time to participate in the upcoming big battle, and I have other important things to do.

   If she has any questions, please ask her to contact the Church of the Holy Light directly and ask His Highness Alonthos Fao about my work. Also, please prepare a safe enough magic safe for me.

   I have a present to present to His Majesty Fao. "

   "Your request will surely be met."

  Jack replied decisively and turned to go to his shop.

   A few minutes later, a black magic suitcase marked with a dagger of the Assassin League was brought to Black.

  The pirate took out a dark red crystal-like eyeball from the ordinary suitcase in his hand, and put it in the magic suitcase in front of Jack.

   "This is... ah, sorry, I shouldn't have asked, this is not according to the Assassins' code."

  Jack watched this scene curiously, he glanced at Blake, and when the latter closed the suitcase, he couldn't help but ask a question curiously.

   "It's nothing, Jack. Those rules are for outsiders, and there is only one rule for all shadowrunners in our organization.

   The stronger you are, the freer you are. "

  The pirate glanced at him and said in a low voice:

   "This is the Eye of Gul'dan. The relic from the Orc Grand Warlock is also his death certificate. It is also the reason why I disappeared for so long. You can report it to the organization truthfully.

   Yes, as you can see.

   While the whole of Ravenholdt was idle in the war, I completed another glorious hunt and slaughtered another orc legend.

  If the fate of two orc legends cannot be exchanged for the title of 'Master Assassin', then I really have to consider quitting this rotten, incompetent and bureaucratic organization.

   What do you say? jack. "
