Azeroth Shadow Trail

   Chapter 298 7. That’s how the grudges started—[1235]

   (Additional update for the Assassin Gilu Brothers [2/5])

   The next morning, Keel Harbor was still rainy and rainy, a perfect testament to the unpleasant humid and cold climate in Gilneas.

  Queen Mia recovered very well after resting all night.

   In order to capture her alive last night, the assassins left all skin wounds. After being rescued, they used the healing potion from Dalaran, which made Her Majesty the Queen quickly get rid of the weakness.

   The scars on the body are for sure.

   However, with King Jean's character, he might be even more excited to see his wife so brave.

   The children were a little frightened last night, and they were still resting in the room. Her Majesty the Queen picked up the loose clothes brought by the servant from the bedside, and after washing, pushed the door and walked out, and went downstairs again.

   It will be early morning, raining again, and bad business in the bar.

The door was closed, and the light was dim, but at the table against the wall, there was an assassin in black, with a full-covered leather helmet, and a masked face, waiting for her there.

  Queen Mia glanced at him, took a bottle of Badlands whisky from the wine cabinet behind the bar, twisted the lid, poured herself a glass of wine, and added ice cubes.

   She raised her cup, sat opposite the assassin, took a sip of wine with the sturdy sturdiness of a Gilnean woman, and then said:

   "I finished my commission last night?"

   "It was done two hours ago."

  Jack took out a blood-stained letter from his arms, put it on the table, and pushed it towards the queen.

   He said in a hoarse voice:

   "Mr. Mayor of Keel Harbour is in warehouse No. 15 in Crime Lane. Your Majesty can ask more from him. I am only responsible for finding out the employer, and I will not participate in the political infighting after that.

   Please forgive me. "

   "From the time I was attacked to two hours ago, in less than six hours, I was able to check it out so clearly. It seems that Master Black's subordinates are really strong generals."

The Queen    put away the letter, did not open it, but praised it.

   Hearing that, Jack laughed in his heart.

   Laughing to death, now there are no more than five assassins in the entire Uncrowned faction. But it doesn’t matter, pretending to be a ghost is a must-have skill for high-level assassins.

   So in the face of this praise, he responded with silence.

   After a minute, he said:

   "Then, it's time to ask Your Majesty and the Prince, Her Royal Highness, to leave here, and we have to open the door to do business. The rules here must have been told to Your Majesty by the Master.

  If you leak your secret, then we will not accept any commission from you in the future. "

"Snapped"

  Queen Mia took off the luxurious jewelry around her neck, put it on the table, and pushed it to Jack, she said:

   "Now, I'm going to issue a second commission to **** me and my children back to my husband. He should be in the naval port in Keel Harbour by now. This commission shouldn't be difficult, right?"

   "It's not difficult."

  Jack glanced at the Hidden Blade on his left hand, he pushed the jewel back again, and said:

   "But we don't take **** missions."

"Um?"

The Queen    looked at the assassin in front of her in surprise. She took another sip of wine and said:

   "Aren't you an assassin?"

"Do not."

  Jack replied mildly:

   "I am the Uncrowned."

   "What's the difference?"

  The queen asked another question with great interest. Jack shook his head, stood up, covered his body with a cloak, and said:

   "You'll find out later.

  The carriage of the tavern has been prepared in the backyard, so please ask the madam to drive to the military port in person. Please rest assured that everyone who should not exist on the road has been eliminated. "

   After saying that, Jack leaned slightly towards the queen, backed into the shadows, and seeing the assassin was about to disappear, the queen got up and asked:

   "Is Master Black still there? I want to issue a commission to him, in the name of the Greymane royal family!"

   "The master has left this place."

  Jack's voice came out faintly when the shadows gathered:

   "His time is very precious. In this country, there is currently nothing worthy of the Master's attention. The entrustment of Her Majesty the Queen can be entrusted to our second-rate colleagues.

  I'm sure they'll do it fairly well. "

—

   "Oops, it feels so good to be back at sea."

   Outside the territorial waters of the Kingdom of Gilneas, in the cabin of the Nagfar, which was quietly traveling in deep water, Black was sitting on his gorgeous and somewhat vulgar captain's golden chair.

   He left the Keel Harbor at dawn, and took a nap in the reassuring cabin, looking at the thick chart in his hand in high spirits.

  The cover of this thing is also marked with "Gilneas Navy Top Secret Document", but the process of getting it from the ship's doctor, Ms. Natalie, must not be considered difficult.

   In fact, it was the Commodore at Keel Harbour who personally handed this thing into the hands of Ms. Natalie when the chaos broke out last night.

  The mind control used by shadow priests who specialize in playing with the mind is so magical.

   "This biting reef is really troublesome."

  The pirate looked at the markings on the chart, and Sefir hovered behind him, looking down, but she was a layman watching the fun.

   This kind of nautical chart is difficult to understand without professional study.

   "It spreads almost all over the coastline of Gilneas. Only the Overturned Strait, where Keel Harbor is located, is not affected. If external forces want to intervene, they can only take that sea route."

  Blake rubbed his chin, his fingers rubbed on the lines marked on the chart, and after a few seconds he said:

   "Either the reef belt was bombed from under the sea, but this is basically impossible, the workload is too large, and the Kul Tiras fleet cannot do it.

  The pure natural defense line is a headache. No wonder Gilneas has been here for hundreds of years, and there are no pirate rumors.

   Ordinary pirates could not survive in such sea conditions. "

   "So, Captain, are you going to give up Gilneas?"

  Seifer was so stunned by the chart in front of her that she stopped looking at it. She hung beside Black and asked softly:

   "Although we can't plunder the mainland of Gilneas, but outside of the mainland, there are also the military ports of Zurred Island and Tidefall Island, which are also the home ports of their fleets.

  If we can take those islands, we can seal off the entire Gilneas Sea. "

   "Of course those islands are to be occupied, but not now."

  Blake closed the chart in front of him, opened the drawer of his desk, and threw it in. He stood up, put on his pirate hat, and walked out of the cabin, saying to Sefir beside him:

   "Let's wait for us to develop for a while, go to the Northrend waters and turn it into our hunting ground, then come back and plan for those Gilnean naval ports.

   Must pick a good time.

  Once the kingdoms of the eastern continent face the threat of pirates, the Kul Tirans will definitely participate. This is their traditional way of 'proclaiming national prestige'.

   It will take a chance until the Kul Tirans are entangled with other forces. "

   After speaking, the captain and first mate walked out of the **** and came to the deck. Blake held the steering wheel in his hands, glanced at the bright sea water ahead, and said:

   "There, it should be Vashj'ir. According to the current speed of the Naglfar, it will take half a day to get there.

   is still not fast enough.

   It seems that the dark wood of Drustvar is not enough to support my boat at top speed. "

   "Whoosh"

As soon as    the pirate's voice fell, Lady Liresa Windrunner landed beside him in the form of a ghost shuttle. Black gave the Windrunner general a slight salute.

   is a nominal mentor after all.

   "Your ship is already very fast, it can run to fifteen knots underwater, which is almost the cruising speed of the magical battleship of the Sun Sail Fleet on the sea.

   It can also snorkel, which has amazed me. "

  Windrunner's mother commands all the ranger troops of Quel'Thalas, and naturally knows a lot about the battleships of her own navy.

   She looked at the bright sea at the far end of her eyes, and said to Blake beside her:

   "I heard what you said just now, can the speed of this ship be further improved?"

   "Of course, the Nagfar is a legendary warship with infinite natural potential."

  Blake clapped the steering wheel in his hand with a hint of pride, and introduced to the Windrunner mother who is now her own:

   "As long as I complete the full upgrade of my beloved ship, it will be the fastest ship in this sea of ​​looting."

   "But it has no weapons."

   Lady Windrunner hugged her shoulders and said sharply:

   "Running fast is not a core advantage, my disciple. If you aspire to be the most feared pirate, then your ship must be equipped with fangs. In this respect, its advantage is also its disadvantage.

   A ship that can snorkel is not able to use artillery on its own initiative, and even a siege crossbow cannot be installed.

  The weapons it needs may not exist in this world at all. "

   "Yes, mentor. There are many strange and strange places in this world, even long-lived elves like you, even legendary powerhouses can't know."

  Black didn't worry about that at all.

   He waved his hand and said:

   "I know very well where there are weapons for my Nagfar, but my schedule is too full, and I don't have time to pick them up. Having said that, since we talked about the magical warships of the high elves

  Teacher, can you give me some information about the Yangfan fleet?

   also saves me from finding a way to get it myself. "

"cannot."

  Windrunner's mother decisively rejected the proposal, she said:

   "I am willing to teach you because I owe a favor.

  This does not mean that I want to betray my country. With the current strength of your fleet, it is no match for the Sunsail fleet at sea, so don't enter the territorial waters of Quel'Thalas, my disciple.

Although the   Sun Sail Fleet is no match for the Kul Tiras Fleet, it is definitely not something that a pirate can bully. "

   This is a rude saying.

   Let the first officer pirate dragon clench his fist, she can't hear others say that her ship is not good.

   But Blake waved his hand without any sign of anger.

   He grabbed the steering wheel and slightly adjusted the direction of the submerged voyage. In the pale halo of the morning light refracted by the seawater on the water surface, the pirate said softly:

   "I haven't planned to provoke the high elves recently, but I know that the country you guard will eventually face disaster. You have things you shouldn't have.

   That is the source of disaster that you will never let go.

   High Elves

  Hmph, a group of poor people who are terminally ill and unable to extricate themselves, I don't need to spend any time to deal with them. "

   A few hours later, the Nagfar officially entered the waters of Vashj'ir, but the ghost ship didn't set off to this bright and incredible sea bottom, but surfaced.

   Enter the sea from underwater, and start to travel on the endless sea in the attitude of a normal ship.

   Soon, it was near where Black's fleet was.

   The huge Alpaca and the four merchant ships escorting it could be seen from a distance, but as they approached, Lady Windrunner beside Black suddenly put her hand on the pirate's shoulder.

   She said in a deep voice:

   "Your ship is being attacked, it's the Naga! They are attacking your crew from under the sea. There are so many of these deep-sea soft-skinned snakes."

"many?"

  Blake shook his head, took out the head of the Nagfar, and communicated with the spirit of the ship. After a few seconds, the cold and sticky gray mist centered on the Nagfar quickly spread out toward the sea.

   "Teacher, since you died, you haven't fought for a long time. Are you interested in hunting down a few Naga to find your way?"

  The pirate handed his Hurricane hunting bow to Mama Windrunner.

   The latter took the hunting bow with disgust, and threw it in his hand, saying:

   "It's far worse than what I've used before, but... hunting Naga, right? It's interesting, there are still some unresolved grievances between us high elves and these high elves."

   "What a coincidence."

  Black carried the scythe and put the Night Killer helmet on his head, he said:

   "As a Kul Tiran, I also have a little 'conflict' with Her Majesty Queen Azshara to deal with. But I am well aware of Her Majesty's arrogance.

   People like her disdain to pay attention to a little pirate.

  So, let’s take her servants who don’t know what to call them, and let’s take a knife. Perhaps when I have killed enough Naga, the arrogant Her Majesty will be willing to 'talk' to me. "
