Azeroth Shadow Trail

   Chapter 506 59. The Windrunner family is too much, consider us Proudmoore

  Pirates guard the cabin of the Nagfar on the eve of a magical visit to the Academy of Nar'Thalas.

   He opened the window and let the moonlight into the dark place.

  The moonlight shone through the window, shining on Blake's pipe-dipping body, causing part of his body to fall into shadow, as if it had been bizarrely cut open by an invisible thing.

   There was also part of the moonlight on the black coffin placed in the cabin, and the loyal magic saber Mionyx lay on the coffin like a big cat, wagging his beautiful tail.

   She also seems to know that the master will recover tonight, which is waiting patiently.

  The pirate had the golden harp from Quel'Thalas, and planned to use it as a gift to congratulate Windrunner's mother on her "reborn".

   If it wasn't for his lack of understanding of rhythm, this would be matched with this quiet and terrifying picture, so he should play a song to add to the fun.

   There are nimble crows flying around outside the window.

   This is very consistent with the biological habits of the trade wind crows foraging at night. Miss Hisari Black Crow is really serious. As long as there are pirates, she strives to improve her camouflage interpretation to full marks.

  Blake was blowing smoke rings, watching the crow flying past with a green bug in his mouth.

   There was an inexplicable emotion in his heart.

   Decided that at the moment when this "camouflage game" ends in the future, she must personally award Miss Black Crow an honorary actor certificate from the Karazhan Grand Theater to reward her for such a hard-working performance.

   "But what drives her to drink dew and eat bugs every day, just to stay by my side to probe for information? Is it her loyalty to Elune?

How did the   Raptor Druids cultivate such loyal spies? "

  Black rubbed his chin and thought to himself:

   "There must be a knack for this kind of thing, right? Isn't this Miss Hisari Crow a natural dramatist? Does she enjoy this kind of deceit and snooping on her privacy?

   For this reason, it can even endure such boring and harsh living conditions.

  Hey~ Thinking about it carefully, this is too perverted, and the humanoid camera belongs to it. She has a miserable life every day, why don't you start preparing special bird food for her tomorrow?

  Nate has bait specially made for fishing, which is said to have been learned from the walrus.

   It was ground and mixed with several kinds of bugs. The last time I passed by, it smelled quite fragrant. I wonder if it suits her appetite? "

  Blake's thoughts run wild at this time.

   Mainly because the wait was a bit long, he finished smoking the pipe in his hand and looked back at the coffin under the moonlight.

   The countdown for Lireza Windrunner's soul reconstruction and career transformation given on the character card had already reset to zero ten minutes ago, but Windrunner's mother showed no sign of waking up.

   "Did something go wrong?"

  Blake stepped forward, reached out and touched the big purple leopard lying there, drove it off the coffin, and then reached out and clasped the edge of the coffin.

  Then Thesari Black Crow silently landed on the window, while she neatly arranged her feathers with a sharp beak, she also probed to Blake's side.

   She was also very curious, what was the purpose of the pirates who had worked so hard to steal back the remains of Lireza Windrunner?

   Isn't it necessary to revive the Windrunner?

   As a Druid who uses life force, Miss Black Crow knows very well that resurrection from the dead is absolutely impossible, right? Otherwise, the Staghelm Arch Druid would have resurrected his son who died in Silithus a thousand years ago.

Miss   Druid had good reason to think that the evil pirates must be carrying out some desecration of life and death.

   As a bystander, she will record this incident and send it back to the Cenarion Order as Blake's "criminal evidence", which will be used later in the liquidation of wicked pirates.

   Of course, on this boring night, it’s not bad to come and watch the fun.

   "click"

  Black opened the coffin that had been closed for half a month.

   Oncoming is a thick dark force, much like the cold fog formed when the high-level death power is converted and dissipated, causing the temperature of the entire cabin to drop several degrees at this moment.

  After dispelling the black mist, Lireza Windrunner's pale body still came into view, and there was no change compared to half a month ago, except for her face.

  Black noticed that his mentor's eyes looked like smoky makeup.

   Dark red tear spots formed around her closed eyes. Compared to before, her cheeks were thinner, and she could even clearly see the outline of her jawbone.

   This thinness brought a sense of "mean" and indifference to Liresa, making her image infinitely close to the Queen of Darkness in Black's memory.

   "This wave, this wave is the mother stealing her daughter's future career plan."

  The pirate groaned and stopped the big purple cat who was probing his head and trying to throw himself into the coffin. He stretched out his hand and put it on the mentor's neck, wanting to see her current condition.

   But when the fingers approached, they were precisely clasped by the hands with black gauntlets.

   The next moment, Lireza opened her eyes, which surprised the pirates.

  It was a pair of dark red eyes, completely different from the pupil color of Windrunner's mother before.

   In the current situation of the undead race, this kind of strange pupil color is absolutely rare in Azeroth, and it is not quite right to call it the fire of the soul.

   "Om"

  Lilesa's body turned into a black mist and disappeared into the coffin. Blake reacted very quickly, turning around and swinging the Moon Blade, smashing the Shadow Blade in the hands of Windrunner's mother who appeared behind him.

   disappeared again by the moonlight, and started a short but fierce close-quarters battle with Lireza in the small cabin.

   Relying on Watcher's unreasonable moonlight strengthening, he suppressed the newly awakened Windrunner mother from beginning to end, and saw an opportunity to use Warlock magic to banish Liresa from the real dimension.

  After the exile, Mother Windrunner stood up with the help of the bulkhead, and when she looked up again, the fire of the soul in her eyes had returned to its normal blue.

   She coughed and said in a hoarse and strange voice:

   "Very good, you haven't retreated in half a month, my disciple"

   "Stop pretending, teacher! You can't fake your killing intent towards me just now. You all act as teachers, why are you not acknowledging your weakness?"

  Black appeared from the moonlight, frowned, and said to Liresa:

   "What happened just now?"

   "Interference from the Shadowlands."

  Windrunner's mother didn't hide it, she rubbed her head and said frankly:

   "Ever since the soul body re-integrated, I can hear the whispers on the other side of the curtain of life and death, it scolded me for violating the law of life and death, and asked me to take the initiative to go to the world of the dead and accept the judgment of my own destiny."

   "Don't listen, don't respond."

  Blake suddenly understood, he raised his hand and said:

   "We will discuss this in Dalaran.

   Now, my dear teacher, I have the gift of 'rebirth' for you. I got this from Quel'Thalas with a lot of effort, and I hope you're in a good mood for it.

   Because I have very bad news for you. "

  The pirate flattered and raised the Jin Xiqin beside him, and gave both hands to his chief retainer, and Windrunner's mother's thin face also showed a nostalgic look.

   She stretched out her hand, stroked the Jin Xiqin in front of her, held it in her hand, and gently strummed it with her slender fingers, and an extremely beautiful melody came out from this elf lyre.

  Black didn't disturb Windrunner's mother's memory.

   He stayed there quietly, listening to the resurrected Lyresa playing an ancient song, and using her hollow voice to sing a cappella to the melody in Thalassian.

   This song is so familiar to Blake that he can even beat to the beat.

  It is called "The Elegy of the High Elves". It is a song created by Quel'dorei artists for the lost elf empire. It is also used by the high elves for their mourning or burial.

   To put it simply, this is a sad song.

   is not so lucky.

   But considering the special form of Windrunner's mother at this time, it is not particularly abrupt.

  The little crow standing on the shoulders of the pirates was also immersed in this elegy, and even relaxed the vigilance of disguise for a few seconds, and followed the song to recall the ancient and prosperous imperial era.

  Blake is more concerned about another thing. When Windrunner's mother played the Jin Xiqin, several buffs appeared on his character card.

   is a temporary boost, the effect lasts for ten minutes, but there are many kinds, from boosting mental resistance, to temporarily enhancing movement and attack speed, to dispelling the negative state of clear mind, etc.

   This made him realize that this Phoenix King's Jin Xiqin is not just beautiful.

   It is indeed a rare magical weapon.

   When the song ended, Windrunner's mother, who had finished her condolences for herself, removed her fingers from the strings, looked at her disciple again, and said:

   "You just said you have bad news for me?"

   "Uh, yes."

  The pirate glanced at the window, ready to escape at any time, and then whispered:

   "Well, your little son came to me and said he wanted to follow you. That young man was really determined and made a manly oath in front of me.

   I'm so moved, so he's now surviving in the wilds of the South Island forest in Tol Barad.

   I let Nathanos protect him.

   And I used the way you trained me, my mentor, to strictly demand him. After beating him several times, I finally made some progress, and I no longer look like that bitch.

  Hey, mentor, this Jin Xiqin is a rare work of art! You didn't use it that way! "

   "Ah, if you have something to say, don't swing the axe!!"

—

  Tol Barad South Island, in the forest where mountain monsters are said to roam, Lyras Windrunner dressed like a savage finally ended his "seven-day trial" when dawn came.

   His originally delicate skin has become rougher, and the feminine feeling on his body has also dissipated a lot. Her handsome face is covered with herbal war makeup, and her body is covered with camouflage leaves woven by herself.

   There are still many small wounds on his body, a bracelet woven with bear teeth on his wrist, and a processed bear head in a bag made of broken clothes behind him.

   That is the tradition of the Windrunners. The first prey caught by oneself is to be made into a specimen, which symbolizes the transition from prey to hunter.

   The former Lilas did not understand the meaning of this somewhat barbaric tradition.

   Now he has learned not to think about these emotional things.

   He walked out from the edge of the forest, looked back at the wilderness behind him, grinned, put the broken bow on his waist, took off his "original ecological equipment" and threw it on the ground.

   bowed towards the forest, and then proceeded to the evacuation point agreed with "Second Brother-in-law" according to the route of departure.

   "Ow"

   A low beast roar came from the darkness, making Lilas quickly prepare for battle. He pulled out the bear bone dagger from his waist and looked around vigilantly.

   He saw a slender figure riding on an armored leopard, walking slowly out of the darkness.

"boom"

   Two things were thrown in front of Lilas by that familiar figure.

   On the left hand is a beautiful golden lyre, and on the right hand is a simple and rough cane, like two different life paths, placed in front of Lilas.

   "Bring Jin Xiqin back."

   Windrunner Mama in black armor says:

   "There are enough good hunters in the Windrunner family, not less than one of you! But we haven't seen a bard in our family yet, maybe you can be the first.

Let's go back.

  Your sisters need your company more than I do. "

   "There are enough good hunters in the Windrunner family, not less than one of me."

  Lyras straightened his back like a soldier being inspected by a general.

   He picked up the Jin Xiqin and the cane on the ground at the same time, and repeated Windrunner's mother's words, saying:

   "I can also be the first bard in my family, but my sisters are strong enough to accompany each other, and you need me to follow you so that you don't lose your way.

   I've lost you once, mother.

   I won't allow you to walk alone this time. "

   A second later, Lilas shouted loudly:

   "Your Excellency Ranger General, Lilas Windrunner, a recruit of the Farstrider Legion, has completed the trial in the wilderness, and now applies to return to the team!"

   Windrunner mother in the dark re-evaluated her little son.

   After a few seconds of silence, she sat down and put on the armored leopard Minnie, and let out a low growl, then turned around and walked into the night without saying a word with her master.

   At the moment when Lilas felt disappointed, he heard a hollow voice:

   "Follow up, recruit."

   "It's time for you to move on to the next stage of training."

   This answer made Lilas extremely excited, he answered, carrying the head of his first prey, leaning on the ancient rune cane, carrying Jin Xiqin, and strode up.

  In the darkness farther behind, the expressionless Black was hiding in the grass with his brother Nathanos, and the sensual Lordaeron Ranger General would have a peaceful smile on his face.

   looks like a **** to a pirate.

  Marris patted Blake on the shoulder and said:

   "This is so touching, why can't you just smile?"

   "Why should I laugh?"

  The pirate said with a wooden face:

   "I understand the truth, but why did she use my things as a reunion gift for her son? I'm her favorite disciple, okay? I was born and died for her, and I didn't get any good rewards.

   This is too different. "

   "Everyone's mother sacrificed her life for you, and you are still distressed for a magic cane!"

  Maris rebuked dissatisfiedly:

   "You guy is really helpless."

   "Oh, I feel bad, but I don't feel bad, anyway, I'll have a better bow soon."

   Black sighed and said:

   "My silly brother, I'm complaining about you. Do you know that although Ms. Liresa didn't say it, I, a person who is good at perceiving people's hearts, have already tasted her meaning.

   If you want to continue to develop contact with her daughter, you have to show 'sincerity'.

   I gave her son a cane and it was over.

   But to make a mighty bow from my staff, I also need an enchanted dragon tendon."

  The pirate patted Maris on the shoulder maliciously and said:

   "Do you understand now? You have to prepare a 'betrothal gift', don't expect me to help you. Tsk tsk, as expected of the Windrunner family, if you want to marry her daughter, you have to fight the dragon.

  Fortunately, I have no interest in the three sisters, otherwise I will be as unlucky as you. Well, that happy wry smile on your face? Or a happy frown?

   I think she is trying to embarrass you on purpose.

  Otherwise, don't give up Sylvanas, I'll take a loss and allow you to pursue Fenna, okay?

   Our Proudmoore family's requirements for choosing a son-in-law are very low. Just help me kill any high priest of the Church of the Storm! Dailin's level may not be easy, but I believe you can handle it.

   Think about it. "
