Azeroth Shadow Trail

   Chapter 743 74. Everything went well, except for Shore

   "He touched it, and not only did it not trigger a counterattack from the relic, but he even used the holy scripture of the tide to resonate with him the energy of the holy hammer with holy healing.

   His interpretation of the doctrine of faith is still as superb as in the past, and his words are full of compassion and kindness. In his interpretation, the Sea Tide Canon cannot pick out any flaws and stains on the level of belief.

   He is a true believer just like me.

   His heart was filled with the power of faith. "

  After the welcome banquet, Alonsous Fao, who was half-kneeling in front of the holy light icon and praying in the chapel specially set up by Dailin in the palace for the Pope, was not at peace.

   The old Pope turned the rosary beads in his hand while recalling the interaction between Lord Stormsong and the Holy Hammer of the Silver Hand just now.

   The doubts in his heart grew more and more.

   "If I believe Black's prophecy, it means that Lord Stormsong or other tidesages possess the ability to hide their true self from the Light.

   But it was a bit too appalling to be able to so easily hide the perception of the Holy Hammer. Or, has Black's omnipotent dark prophecy gone a little wrong this time?

  The Church of the Storm may have something to do with the power of darkness, but Lord Stormsong is still the pure one?

It is hard to imagine if he is a servant who succumbed to the power of darkness, with the influence of the entire Church of Storms in Kul Tiras and his power as a great noble in the world, once Black and I choose to break this secret, this country will It will be instantly disturbed by him.

   But Lord Stormsong paid no attention to my presence.

   Does he really know nothing?

   Or should the light and warnings of the Holy Light be regarded as ordinary things that do not need attention?

  Under the shadow of the storm, what hides is the way to protect the pure ocean of the country? Or a disturbing dark evil?

   Light above, these questions are really heart-wrenching. "

   His Majesty sighed deeply.

   He knew that these questions were destined to be unanswered by his own thinking. Perhaps he should go to the temple of the Church of the Storm to check it out.

   Having seen with his own eyes the things of the abyss in the dark caverns under Tirisfal Glades, the Pope's determination to eradicate these dark things that pollute the soul has grown stronger.

   He can use the power of the Church of the Holy Light to defend the souls of his fellow human beings, as Blake expects, but only if he has enough evidence to prove that things have become irreparable.

   This is war.

  The battle of faith, which is a hundred times more ferocious than ordinary warfare, must not be sloppy.

   Just as the Pope calmed down and was about to start today's prayers, a sudden thunder made the old Pope look up. In the sky outside the chapel, a storm was already brewing.

  Dark clouds are rolling over this bustling harbour, and before the torrential rain comes, the gale has declared that this night is doomed to not be peaceful.

   This is the changeable and unpleasant weather in Kul Tiras.

  As an island country close to tropical waters, things like storms are really common, but fortunately, the weather here is at least not as rainy and humid as Gilneas.

  After a heavy rain, the whole city will shine like clean coins that have been washed. The rainbow of Kul Tiras is also a beautiful scenery famous throughout the human kingdom.

   Prayer in the night rain can always calm the heart of the sincere person, and it has a unique flavor.

   Just as the old Pope began to recite the first verse, the entire Huifan market near the pier was temporarily closed before the storm fell.

   The local businessmen cursed that the **** weather had disturbed them to make money, but they swiftly followed the port officer's request, put away their stalls, and locked the gates.

   They were already used to this situation. After ten minutes, the whole bustling market became deserted, but at the same time, the Sailor Street in the southwest became more lively.

   Merchants and dockworkers who had nothing to do flocked to the taverns to have fun, and even thunderstorms could not disturb the enjoyment of these islanders.

  If the storm lasted all night, they would also spend the night happily and relaxed in this street.

   "Come on! Come this way."

In the storm that swept the city, a small guy covered himself with a long hood, poked his head in the dark alleys of Sailor Street, and finally waved his hands and whistled a lively rhythm, as if he was delivering a message. .

   In his search, some fellows with the same hoods came pouring in from all over Sailor Street. There were men and women, and in addition to humans, there were dwarves and a few foxmen.

   "The last rumored place where a 'mechanical thief' appeared in the city was in the last warehouse on this street."

  Tandreed Proudmoore with a hood excitedly said to the people around him:

   "It's Sailor Gang's territory. The locals don't like those nasty guys. They always try to extort everyone who strays into the dark alley. They were killed by the Admiralty several times, but they can be revived every time."

   "You don't go in, and tell us the terrain there."

  The hooded Shaw looked left and right, made a gesture, and the surrounding Uncrowned Assassins immediately dispersed, trained to jump into the shadows under the storm, and headed for the dark alleys of Sailor Street.

  Shore said to the little prince who ran back in front of him to be the "Leading Party":

   "You should go home now."

   "Hey, I gave up hunting with my sisters and sneaked back from Kennings camp, not to go home and be a 'good boy'."

  Tan Reid waved his hand in dissatisfaction, he said:

   "You need me, this alley is deep and extending in all directions. It is said that a maze was created underground because of the earthquake a few years ago.

   I also heard from the guards that there is a black market in that underground labyrinth occasionally, but the things sold there are not interesting, at least I don't like it.

  The whole Boralus Harbor thugs who haven't been caught by the Admiralty will be operating around these blocks, you out-of-towners can't eat here.

  If no one leads the way, you will get lost. "

   "I don't think so."

   Shaw, with a mask on his face, rubbed his chin and said:

   "But as a Kul Tiras prince, how can you be so familiar with this kind of low-class place? Do you come here often? Well, it seems that our Highness Tanred is really not a 'good boy'."

   "Shhhh, don't talk nonsense."

  Tan Reid saw that he had missed the bottom, and immediately made a silent action, and said to the guy in front of him who he didn't know but looked very powerful:

   "If other people found out, I wouldn't be able to sneak out and play.

   Come with me quickly, the storm is getting bigger and bigger, if the mechanical gnomes you mentioned really exist in this city, then they should also come out at this time. "

After   , the little prince ignored Shaw behind him, turned around and ran towards the dark alley of Sailor Street.

   Shaw shook his head, he sensed his surroundings, wrapped his hood tightly, took a step forward, and disappeared into the alley in the rain.

   "Fizz. Shore? Hey, can you hear me?"

   The leader of MI7, who was temporarily serving as the commander of the Uncrowned, suddenly heard a sound coming from his ears, mixed with waves of strange electric currents.

   He pressed his ear a little uncomfortable, pushed the dwarf communicator inserted into his left ear, and replied:

   "This thing wasn't so noisy during testing! Kelsey, are you sure it won't be a problem?"

   "It was the storm that interfered with the signal hissing, don't worry, this is normal.

  This engineering communicator has become popular among our secret agents of Gnomeregan, and it is very safe as long as you don't get hit by lightning, it won't cause you any damage. "

  The sound of Kelsey Steelspark chewing raspberry gum echoed in Shaw's ears, and she said:

   "I saw the little prince, he is running towards the target warehouse, he is really energetic. I am on the commanding heights now, looking around, with a wide field of vision, ready to shoot at any time.

   But heavy rain will affect my accuracy, so you better be careful, I'm not responsible for hitting you, just kidding, don't be afraid, my marksmanship is very good. "

  The cheerful demeanor of the optimist gnome agents made Shaw uncomfortable. MI7 and Ravenholdt's assassins were not so happy when they were on a mission.

   In fact, most of the people who choose to become assassins have a story of bitterness and hatred.

   The storm was getting faster and faster.

The   pea-sized raindrops hit the uneven ground in the dark alleys of Sailor Street, like a bad symphony.

  Heavy rain has seriously interfered with sight and observation. The field of vision from here has been narrowed to a few meters, and nothing can be seen farther away.

  Shore and the assassins waited patiently in place, searching around silently, while Kelsey Gangshui, who was lying on the commanding heights, used his engineering skills to get himself a temporary hiding place.

   Without compromising her vision, she propped up an odd tent to keep herself and her weapons dry.

   Agent Little Gnome chewed gum, fingers on the trigger of his amazingly long sniper rifle.

The gears of the mechanical goggles on the    eyes kept beating, and she was changing the optical index of refraction of the goggles so that she could maintain a good field of vision in such heavy rain.

   But after waiting for thirty minutes without finding anything, Shaw felt that they might be running out of steam tonight.

   Tan Reid, who was hiding in the warehouse that was stolen once before, even yawned.

  The little prince found that this secret operation was not as exciting as he thought, even dull and boring. If I had known this earlier, I might as well stay at Camp Kenings and hunt with my sisters.

   But just as Shaw left his post, he suddenly found a strange thing in the sky in the rain curtain that was getting faster and faster.

  It was like a raised box.

  The top has a whirling and silent propeller blade, with a triangular grappling hook underneath, like a claws clasping a packed box, like a ghost in the rain.

  Its surface was painted with a very special paint, making it almost completely integrated with the background of the rainstorm. If it wasn't for Shaw's abnormal eyesight, he wouldn't be able to spot the weird thing.

   "Kelsey! Your nine o'clock direction, look up to the sky! Can you spot those weird things? Is that something your engineering can make?"

  Shore immediately used the communicator to contact Kelsey.

   The dwarf did not answer, as if she was observing, and after a few seconds, she exclaimed:

   "My God! This kind of stability and speed, and its powerful load weight, our current engineering technology can't do this, it must be equipped with a very powerful gyroscope and energy core.

   At least three levels more advanced than what we use now!

   is a mechanical gnome, yes!

   Hurry up to that direction!

  Shore, right by the bay outside our block! I saw several more aircraft lift off, oh my god! Why is there a horse tied to it?

   Do they even want such a tall and ferocious creature? "

   Under the guidance of Kelsey, Shaw and a group of Uncrowneds moved quickly.

  Tandreed, who heard the sound, was also awakened. The little prince rushed out of the warehouse grabbing a cicada-catching net bag, and ran to the coast behind the assassins yelling.

   As a result, a foxman assassin took out a bandage and wrapped it around his mouth, so that he wouldn't make any **** sound that would alarm the target.

   This is a covert operation!

   Soon, Shaw and Black's assassins found their target.

   In an open space hidden in the middle of some large boxes piled up on the coast, a strange-looking guy is constantly releasing those strange and advanced aircraft.

  The little thing skillfully operated the complex aircraft while making the iconic giggles of gnomes in the rain.

   "This thing will definitely surprise them! It's too edible, and I don't know if it's been transformed into a machine, it won't be able to leave such a good appetite."

   She let out a happy and evil laughter while releasing the flying machine beside her hand. In the grappling hook of this flying machine, there was a big fat pig in three colors that was still struggling.

   "Fly, fly."

   Weird guy waving weird hands and cheering in the storm:

   "Take my letter home, I'm going on vacation next month, and let that **** from Bondo who only squeezes employees replace me with the irascible Naino."

"boom"

   A gunshot rang out, and under the stunned gaze of the mechanical dwarf, the aircraft that had just launched into the sky was blown up by bullets flying in the rain, and the big fat pig that was detained and lifted into the air also fell to the ground.

   The poor fellow was terrified.

   howled and rushed all the way along the coast, knocking the unfortunate Prince Tanred, who was caught off guard, in the face.

   "Ah! It was discovered."

   The mechanical gnome Forerunner, who was hiding in the city and collecting various supplies for his hometown, responded quickly.

   She screamed, turned around and pulled out two weird coil pistols from her waist, and kept firing at the assassins rushing behind her. In the strange vibration of the body, two vivid optical projections were created to try to disrupt the rhythm of the pursuers.

   "Battle analysis started! Find a way for me!"

   She screamed what Shaw could not understand, and was about to escape from the siege of the assassins, but "Sniper" Kelsey Steelspark didn't give her any more chances.

   A precise shot hit the escaped mechanical gnome's leg, causing her to fall to the ground with a howl of sparks.

   should be the broken leg.

  Shore rushed out of the shadows and stepped on the body of the mechanical dwarf who was still struggling. As a result, the surge bomb thrown by this weird guy exploded in the center of the two of them.

  Shore felt that everything around him was rapidly magnifying.

   He seemed to have been casted on some kind of evil magic, and when he recovered from his dizziness, he had already shrunk to one-tenth of his original size.

   became a complete "little man".

   He raised his head and saw the giant-like mechanical dwarf in front of him clenching his teeth and hitting him with his fists, as if he was going to crush him viciously.

   But although it has been shrunk, Shore's deadly skills are still there.

   A flexible dodge, and then rushed forward like a bullet, punching the mechanical dwarf on the forehead, slammed her to the ground, dizzy and lost the ability to fight back.

   "Cool! A steady release of 'World Amplifier'!"

The people around    quickly gathered, and Kelsey Steelspark with a gun quickly grabbed the unconscious mechanical gnome with handcuffs, and she glanced at Mathias Shore, who was a small one under her feet.

   giggled and held him up with his hands, and stretched out to play in front of him.

   "You are so cute in such a pocket, sir Shaw."

  Kelsey took out a glass bottle containing bugs from his arms, buckled it on Shaw's head with malice, and sealed the mouth of the glass bottle.

   tapped the bottle wall and said:

   "I have to pack you up so you don't accidentally get trampled to death. Oh, don't be angry, I'll find a way to get you back. But first we have to take this captive to Black.

   He will be very happy to see you like this. "
