Azeroth Shadow Trail

  Chapter 269 88. As the captain, you don't have a personal doctor by your side, is this a good thing?

  After a night in the Serene Garden Cemetery, Black's last thing on the Eastern Continent was over.

   He couldn't wait to get back to the sea.

   "We'll follow the dark forest, all the way west, through Raven Hill, into the Wild West, where there's an old lighthouse and one of my boats."

   The next morning, in the same, unchanging darkness, without a ray of sunlight, the pirate bid farewell to the ranger, who rode on his hellish horse.

  Behind him, there is an old horse given as a friendly gift by the humblers of Old Garni.

   Ms. Natalie Selin, who was wearing a hood and covering her body, was riding on that old horse. She healed herself with holy light, but after all, the injury was too serious, and she would still be in a state of illness.

   "I've already told old Garni that we've solved a big hidden danger for it and its humblers, so it will help you find that sly fox."

  Black told Nathanos beside him:

   "But I think if you want old Gani to help you with your heart, you'd better follow what it says, and spend two days picking up trash in the Dusk Forest with these refugees.

  Trust me, it's good for you to win Ghani's appreciation.

   Again, it’s not for you to do bad things, it’s just scavenging. I have heard that humility and desolation do not detract from the greatness of the brave, and those who have truly blossomed are never afraid to walk into the long night.

   Naturally, he will not be afraid to lean over to pick up the trash, right? "

"Fine."

   The ranger riding on the military horse sighed, he touched his Farstrider chainmail, and said helplessly:

   "I can't pick it up? But you have to promise that you can't tell other people about this, especially you can't make fun of it. I know how poisonous your mouth is."

  He looked up and said to Black:

   "It doesn't matter to me, anyway, picking up trash is just an apology to those who have been offended by me. But I have another identity, you know.

   I don't want my actions to affect my mentor's reputation. "

   "I understand, I understand very well."

  Black patted Nathanos on the shoulder maliciously, and said in a weird tone:

   "You are really conscientious, you licking dog, and you must do everything in the interests of the goddess. Then, in the name of Lady Sylvanas, my friend.

   Pick up the trash happily. "

   After saying that, the pirate laughed unscrupulously, waved to Nathanos, and in the desolate tweet farewell, took Natalie Selin and walked to the dark forest outside the cemetery.

   There is not much to say goodbye.

   Just like the previous departure, the friendship between men does not need to be decorated with gorgeous words.

   They will always see each other again.

  Nathanos watched the pirates leave, and watched the little murloc riding behind the old Bone-bite cheering and flying into the forest. He raised his hand and swayed silently several times.

   turned around again, to the humble people behind him who were looking at him.

   He gave a warm and friendly smile, moved his arms, and said:

   "Pick up trash, right? Then don't waste your time, just start with this graveyard, come on guys, give me one of your 'uniforms'.

  Well, speaking of it, this cemetery is haunted by dark powers, making many corpses come alive.

   If I help you get these corpses back into the tomb, can it be considered that I have served Old Gani? Well, it's not that I despise picking up trash.

   Mainly, that, there is a specialization in the arts.

   Help me ask your patrons. "

—

  The ghostly place of Dusk Forest is quiet. If you don't have a torch, it will be difficult to illuminate the way forward.

   But at this time, the two people walking near Raven Hill were blessed by the night. The pure darkness was not enough to make them feel afraid, but it would make them feel comfortable "home".

When    was abandoned before approaching, but with the help of the old Garni, when the settlement was rebuilt, Natalie, who was riding on the old horse, suddenly said:

   "The **** who calls himself Gani was summoned to the forest by you. When I was indulging in the darkness before, I seemed to have seen you walking with the orcs during a certain 'hunting' out.

   Are you going to extend your power here? Mr Black. "

   "No, it's not as complicated as you think."

  The pirate waved his hand and said:

"I just saw that the refugees here needed help, so I gave them help. Speaking of the old Ghani, he asked me a question before, saying that it was the humble people who were sheltered by it, and recently began to take the initiative to preach to the outside world. .

   This annoys it.

   It knows that this is the traditional parish of the Church of the Holy Light, and it is afraid of causing trouble and hurting the humble people who are very simple and "good for it".

   Natalie, you used to be the archbishop of Stormwind Kingdom. From your professional point of view, will the sectarian conflict that Old Gani was worried about appear in Dusk Forest in the future? "

"Um"

The question of    pirates made the weak archbishop hesitate for a moment. After organizing the language, the archbishop wearing a black hood said seriously:

   "If it was before, there would have been conflicts.

  The Kingdom of Stormwind is not as simple as a traditional parish of the Church of Holy Light. In the North County of Elwynn Forest, there is North County Monastery, one of the three holy places of the Church of Holy Light.

   Therefore, this land is the core area of ​​the church.

   There are many sincere and fanatical believers there, and they will not allow foreign beliefs to interfere with the operation of the parish.

   But that was before. "

   Natalie looked at the darkness floating around like night, sighed, and said professionally:

   "Judging from the extent to which Dusk Forest is now seriously infested by dark forces, what Old Gani worries about, at least until the darkness recedes, is unlikely to happen.

   The darkness in this forest stems from the magical explosion of Deadwind Pass. My followers and I, while chasing the orcs, also tried to go to Deadwind Pass to check the source.

   In our pessimistic estimates, the darkness of Duskwood will not fade anytime soon as long as Karazhan is around.

   And the dark power in this forest is too powerful, it will suppress the connection between the low-level priests and the Holy Light, unless the church is willing to send Paladins to **** the high-level priests and settle in the Dusk Forest for a long time.

  Otherwise, it will be very difficult for the church to regain the faith of this land in the future. "

   "Well, that's a good thing."

  Black nodded, and casually shouted to a small garbage dump he passed by:

   "Did you hear that? Old Gani, don't worry that the mad believers will come and fight your faith war with you. Let's play leisurely here. For my sake, don't bully Maris, okay?

   He's a nice guy. "

   "Hey hey hey"

   Old Gani's strange laughter could be heard in the darkness, as if he was saying goodbye.

   Passing through Raven Hill in front, Black and Natalie only need to walk for half a day before they can say goodbye to the dark forest and enter the border of Stormwind Kingdom, which is also a food-producing area, and the western wilderness.

   There is a large coastal plain where fertile and desolate coexist. The scenery is desolate, the sky is high and the sea is wide, which is at least a hundred times better than the ghostly place of Dusk Forest.

"The five great knights of the Knights of the Silver Hand are now all on the southern side. In Lakeside Town before, I heard that two great knights, Saidan and Tirion, were escorting the unconscious Marshal Lothar, from The battlefield has returned to Elwynn Forest."

  Blake rode his horse forward, galloping in the dark in the direction of Westfall, and said to the very silent Ms. Natalie Selling who followed behind him:

   "If you don't want to go back to the northern border with me by sea, you can go to Stormwind City to find the Knights of the Silver Hand after entering the Westfall in a while.

   Now, this is for you. "

  The pirate threw a small magic suitcase.

   Natalie reached out to take it, opened it in front of her eyes and looked at it.

In the magic suitcase isolated from the flow of magic power, the black velvet lining is placed with the silent dark empire blade. On the purple-black blade body, the faint blue lines are still shining with a blurred and mysterious luster. .

The    blue-purple evil relic did not lose its power after being drawn away from Xal'atath.

   Its power comes from its own material.

   This is a genuine weapon made from the remains of the claws of an old **** who died in the wild, in which Xal'atath resides, only to make it more sinister.

   But not including the creation of the void, the blade of the Dark Empire, which turned into a pure weapon, is also one of the most dangerous legendary evil weapons in the world of Azeroth.

  The pirates are big-hearted, but they don't plan to keep this thing with them for a long time.

  Void and evil energy are different. The corruption of the void has always been silent. How can the sinister damage come? When you find out that you have been recruited, it is too late.

   And even if the pirates don't worry about being recruited, there is no way to guarantee that the other pirates on his ship can withstand the temptation of the void. It would be too bad if he created a cult in his undead fleet.

   Now, if the Holy Light Church is willing to deal with this trouble, he is happy to hand over this evil thing.

   "It doesn't speak anymore?"

   Natalie has been with the Blade of the Dark Empire for several years. With a bit of emotion, she found the changes in the Blade of the Dark Empire in less than two seconds after touching the evil object again.

   She looked at the pirate in front of her in astonishment, the change in the evil must have something to do with Black.

   But the latter is not intended to be explained.

   just waved his hand and said:

   "I don't care what you do with it, anyway, take it away, the farther away from me the better. But I guess, even if you bring it back to the northern border and hand it over to His Majesty Fao, the old man will not be able to destroy it.

   Even if there is a silver hand warhammer, there is no way to take it, and it is estimated that it will be sealed in no man's land in the end. "

   "Why don't you use it yourself? You have to hand over this power to others?"

   Xalatas said quietly:

   "Even without my power in it, the Blade of the Dark Empire itself is a weapon that can use magic to create terrible disasters, whether on land or at sea.

   You should hold it, trust me, little master. "

   "As long as I take it to sea, I will be targeted by N'Zoth immediately."

  The pirate said casually:

   "Is this your plan? Miss Xalatas, let me fight with the servants of N'Zoth so that you can profit? This temptation is a bit too contemptible, isn't it?

   What weapon do you think I'm missing? "

   "It's so good to choose you."

   Xal'atas let out a strange laugh and said:

   "Other users will not reject my proposal just now, they are all dazzled by the power, only you are so awake, I am looking forward to the way you kill the Quartet.

  I also look forward to your perseverance and stamina in evil things"

   The last sentence was spoken, and there was actually a tongue-licking sound effect, but the pirate remained unmoved.

   "Ladies shouldn't talk like that, so please hold back a bit and shut up."

  Black took the initiative to end the conversation.

   Behind him, Natasha whispered:

   "You're talking to her, it's dangerous, and I don't plan to go to contact the Knights of the Silver Hand at this time, I'm not ready.

   With this gesture of walking in the shadows, I met my old friends.

   My teachings are not perfect and I still have a long way to go. "

  The Archbishop reached out and handed back the suitcase containing the Dark Blade.

  Under the surprised gaze of the pirates, Natalie lifted her hood and brushed her hair. She looked at the western wilderness that was already shining with sunshine in front of her.

Say:

   "But luckily, I have found my way.

  Although I have returned to the Holy Light in different ways, it is a pity that it is difficult to go back to the old days. Those changes have already happened, so I can't bury my head in nothing and pretend that everything is fine and the world is peaceful.

   Stratholme's Church, Light's Hope Shrine, those are not the places I should go.

   My mentor was a benevolent man, but not everyone was as wise as him, and in the eyes of my former companions, I represented a dangerous force.

   Heretics are more hateful than heretics. "

   Archbishop chuckled, and she said to Black:

   "I just heard that Mr. Black has a ship and a fleet that is about to sail beyond civilization. So, can you reserve a doctor's place for me on your warship?

  I thought I should be able to find a new home there without worrying about being burned at the stake. "

   "Well, I just had my own housekeeper, and now I have my own personal doctor."

   Hearing this, the pirate grinned.

He says:

   "I really want to become a big man, which really makes people feel joy and anticipation. Okay, Ms. Natalie Selling, I have accepted your resume.

  My boat will have your place.

   But there is something special about me, I mean, I hope your new ship doctor is not afraid of ghosts"
