Azeroth Shadow Trail

   Chapter 225 44. Council of Tirisfal? Is this the Haunted Council? (superior)

   "You, you, you, you. Hello."

  Miss Ellie, the "special envoy" sent by the Tirisfal Council, stood on the pier, shaking her hands and extending her hand to Warwick, the snake-man prophet standing in front of her, as a gesture of goodwill.

   But the fear in her eyes and the trembling hands represented that Miss Caster was not at peace.

snake?

  Why a snake!

   And the Prophet Warwick tilted his well-dressed snake head with a small crown, and looked at the trembling hands of Miss Caster, who spat out a snake letter and glanced at Black.

   said in a strangely accented human language:

   "This female. Uh, ma'am, what's wrong with her? The fear radiating from her heart, I didn't need to feel it to detect it, did something frighten her?"

   "Well, no, this lady is just a disgusting racist."

  The pirate explained maliciously:

   "Like most of her kin, she likes to judge people by their appearance. I don't need to say more about your snake people's appearance, and I told her about the snake people's 'tradition' before.

   She is very worried that you will use the poison quiver you carry with you to secretly shoot her an arrow. "

   "Ah, that's it."

   The Prophet's scaly face showed a sinister smile.

   It turned to look at Ellie who wanted to explain, waved his hand and said:

   "Don't listen to his nonsense, ma'am. We snake people are friendly and carry quivers just to punish those who don't have enough respect for our beliefs.

   I guess this bad-hearted human must tell you that we eat carrion.

  No no no, we don't eat carrion.

  We only eat fresh meat”

  Warwick's snake pupils zoomed, and with a predatory look, he looked up and down at Ellie in front of him.

   It says in a weird voice:

   "The flesh that smells of fear, first bring them down with poison arrows, wait for them to be overwhelmed by their own fear in the hallucination, paralyzed by the venom, and then take them back to the lair.

   Eat the best part.

  The rest are piled beside our eggs, and the young snakes waiting to hatch take the softened flesh as children's first meal in the world.

   hehe, just kidding, ma'am.

  We snake people are vegetarians most of the time.

  Look, we also have a sense of humor.

   So you don't have to worry that we will hurt you, I and Lord Merry are also very good friends. "

   What a **** of a sense of humor!

   Do you desert people joke like this? I think you all deserve to be dragged into the Darkmoon Faire to learn from the burlesque masters, what a real joke!

   Ellie wanted to make a mad rant.

   But due to his current status, there is also the irregular blue keystone that is surrounded by lightning that saw the snake people lift off the boat.

   Out of the caster's keenness, she immediately realized that the thing must be something unusual.

   stiffened his neck and nodded to a kind of battle mage beside him. The mages immediately stepped forward and checked their sacred items under the vigilant eyes of the snake-man sacred guards.

   Mainly to see if this thing will interfere with the release of arcane magic.

  If not, use the portal back to Dalaran.

  If it will interfere with the stability of magic, you can only walk back.

   When the snake people disembarked, led by the red-haired Jack and some human sailors under Black's command, the 400 locals who signed the contract, also carrying large and small bags of luggage, were transferred to the vacated ship.

   They will first be sent to Tol Barad Island, where they will practice their sailing skills, and by the way, they will help the fox people build a village on that deserted island and reclaim land.

  Black's fleet, in the waters of the Eastern Continent, also needs a clear cover and a docking place.

Taking advantage of the fact that Tol Barad has not been occupied by other forces, first demarcate the territory there, and then find a way to buy the right to use the land from the Kingdom of Stromgard, and the land legally belongs to Black. .

   Anyway, it is a remote place, and it was not paid much attention before. As for whether or not he can keep it after he buys it, that is Blake's problem.

   "There is powerful magic in that stone, and we can't risk transporting it with teleportation spells. Once the magic interferes, the teleportation process is likely to fail."

   Soon, Captain Battle Mage brought bad news to Ellie. They had to use a carriage to send the relic keystone back to Dalaran. Fortunately, the carriage that sent the civilians over was still there.

  So, in the "farewell" of a group of drunk locals, Black and the snake people set foot on the road across the Silverpine Forest.

   After they left, the group of people living by the coast were still talking.

   "What did I see? After the green orcs, is there a snake with long legs? Hell, I'm afraid this world is coming to an end, and all kinds of ghosts have come out."

   "Those snakes are also flashing lightning, I see!"

   "My kids touched the snakes, they were friendly, and gave my son a small gem! Look, I'm going to make a fortune!"

   "Damn it! Your gem is releasing lightning! Throw it away!"

   "Boom"

   "God, those four-legged snakes stole my apples, but left the money, I must be not drunk enough.

   Another glass of wine!

  The Holy Light is above, do I have to use my mouth to help someone have a good time, and then someone will serve me a drink? Hey, what are you all doing lying on the ground? Why are you smoking above your head?

   Is this some new trick? "

   Aside from the little confusion caused by this group of naïve civilians, the snake man's way to Dalaran was smooth sailing.

  There are battle mages riding horses to **** them in front, and there are no blind creatures in the forest who dare to block the way.

   But Miss Ellie was having a hard time in the carriage.

   She is not only afraid of snakes, but also has a strong thirst for knowledge, but the prophet Warwick and the pirate Blake, who are sitting opposite her, speak in the language of snake people.

   That language was a meaningless hissing sound to the elf.

   "Is it okay over there in Tol Barad?"

  Blake asked a question while playing with his pipe. The Snake Man Prophet nodded and replied in a very comfortable tone:

   "In the new place, there are no unbelievers, and there is no sun that can kill people. Although the war has abandoned the island, it is rich in products and has enough water.

  My people love it there.

   They have chosen a place in the dark forest and have built their nests.

   The first batch of eggs has begun to hatch, and perhaps soon, the population of the devout will grow again. It is a rare day of peace. "

   "I thought you guys couldn't adapt to places outside the desert."

   Black says:

   "In the Eastern Continent, it is very difficult to find a desert for you."

   "We do occasionally miss the windy sand that allows us to hide, but we live in the desert just because we have nowhere to go, it's not that we really like it there."

  The old prophet shook his head, glanced at Ellie, and said:

   "There were merchant ships that docked on the side of the island before, and I talked to the terrified merchants and learned about the situation on this continent from them.

  I admit, I didn't trust you very much, Captain Black.

   But after asking others about the city-state of Dalaran, I apologize for my vigilance.

   But I have heard stories about these high elves again. It is said that their Silvermoon City has a powerful building called the Sunwell.

   Maybe we can"

   "No, Warwick, I know you're concerned about the safety of the keystone, trust me, I'm as concerned about it as you are."

  The pirate shook his head and said to the snake man:

   "Quel'Thalas may be safer than Dalaran, but I think you've heard from the merchants about the strange tempers of these high elves.

  I personally don't care much, I don't deal with them anyway.

   But you want to ask the high elves to keep the holy relics for you, and it is estimated that you will not be able to talk about it for decades.

   Of course, you can try it.

   There are also many high elves in Dalaran city. They also have a prince in the city. If you can convince him, I have no problem.

   And, I have a small question. "

  Black stared at Warwick and said in a bad tone:

   "There are merchant ships docked in Tol Barad, why did my incompetent subordinates let them leave? They are tired of being pirates, so are they going to try to be good people?"

   "Uh, you don't have to worry about that."

  Snake Man Prophet said with strange eyes:

   "Those merchant ships in Gilneas have been seized by your men. I was talking to those merchants in a cage, and your men have **** the captain and crew and have sent extortion letters to their families."

   "It's about the same."

  Black nodded with satisfaction, and asked again:

   "What about the ancestral turtles? Are they still honest?"

   "They are fighting the Naga."

   The Prophet shook his head and said:

   "It's in the sea south of Tol Barad, in a place called Vashj'ir. They fought under the sea, and it was fierce. The proto-turtles spent money and asked snake warriors to help.

   I promised to help them protect their refugees.

   So, there are still hundreds of ancestral tortoises on the island that have lost their homes. Those ferocious Nagas also stormed our dock, but were repelled by the combination of orcs and snakemen.

   By the way, there are two human fishermen who went to the island a few days ago, and one of them."

   Having said that, the snake man's eyes became strange.

   It said to Black in a weird tone:

   "That young man with long chestnut red hair, told me that he had seen us in a dream, that he had dreamed of us fighting the unbelievers in the desert.

   also accurately stated the name of the mysterious mistress, as well as the general orientation and shape of the Temple of Sethraliss.

   Is that a prophet disguised as a fisherman? "

   "Ah, Nat."

  The pirate pouted and replied:

   "That magical fisherman is much more powerful than the prophet, you'll find out later."

   "What are you talking about?"

  Ellie finally couldn't take it anymore.

   The high elf chick looked at Blake and said:

   "How did you learn the language of the snake people? Lord Black, can you teach me?"

   "This is called Parseltongue, you don't understand."

  The pirate glanced at her and said mysteriously:

   "You can't learn without talent. But Merry can do this too. You can ask him to teach you in the future. Please ask me to teach you tuition. I'm afraid you won't be able to pay."

"who said it?"

   Ellie raised her chest and said proudly:

   "Although my family is not a famous mage family, it has been passed down for a thousand years, and there is still wealth for the pursuit of knowledge."

   "No, I don't want money."

  The pirate looked her up and down, and said in a playful tone:

   "I want something else."

   "Dirty!"

  Allie followed Blake's gaze and looked at her chest, then hugged her body with embarrassment and scolded the pirate sharply:

   "Dirty stinky pirates!"

"Hahaha"

  The unscrupulous laughter of pirates echoed in the carriage for a while.

   In the second half of the night, this convoy entered Dalaran City silently, and did not stop in the city, driving all the way to a very inconspicuous dilapidated Mage Tower.

   And through the magic mechanism inside the tower, they were sent to the secret place where the Council of Tirisfal is located.

   Old Lich Merri Winterwind is ready for work.

As soon as the   Snake Man Prophet came over, he was dragged to the secret room. The process of exploring the underground of Tirisfal before was collected and recorded in the magic gem by the old lich, just for Warwick to take a look.

   proves that what the pirates said is true, that human civilization is also facing the same crisis as the snake man, and human beings have the ability to solve this kind of trouble.

   This is all pre-arranged.

The purpose of    is to tie the snake people to the pirate's chariot and let them serve Black with all their hearts.

   "Your Excellency Pirate, why are you still here?"

   Ellie sneaked out from the side, the high elf's eyes shone with mischief, and she said to Black in an exaggerated tone:

   "The former members of the Tirisfal Council heard of you, and they all wanted to see you."

   "Come on, everyone is waiting for you."
