Azeroth Trail of Light

Vol 9 Chapter 5: .Forerunner in the Storm

The North Sea is also called the Sea of ​​Frozen.

Unlike the perennially frozen sea in the south of Northrend, the sea here is not completely frozen, and warships can travel freely, but the problems in this sea are not easy at all. Compared with other seas in the world, the North Sea The biggest problem is the ice storm that lasts all the year round.

Even the most experienced navigator needs to be vigilant in this strange and unpredictable sea.

Well, it is said that there are also powerful and mysterious North Sea monsters, the Kvaldir pirates of Hella, and there are frequent activities here. In short, this is not a land that will welcome outsiders. To be precise, it is quite used. The harsh attitude drives all fools who dare to approach it.

But even where it is dangerous, there is no shortage of brave explorers.

The gloomy sky, the heavy clouds, look up, and the dark clouds that are constantly shining with thunder and lightning will stay above your head. There is also cold freezing rain, raindrops between liquid and solid beating on the sailor. If we don’t take protective measures, our bodies will be slightly frostbite in less than 10 minutes.

The temperature here is very low, and it is mixed with a knife-like sea breeze. It can even feel pain when it blows on the face, but this is not its most violent time. There are several lines on the main mast of the "Thunder Slasher". The 30 cm mark is one of the scars left on this ship during the craziest storm.

Its steel shell is also scarred, but it is like a warrior roaming the sea. Although there are countless wounds, although you can tear it apart, you just can't defeat it.

Brigadier General Taylor dragged a leg to patrol the deck. The veteran had a blue and white captain's cap on his head. The gorgeous spikes had been wet, but he could not conceal his temperament like a sword, and the loyal and brave Royal Navy for a moment. The water was scooped out from the deck non-stop. They changed in 3 shifts. There was a warm stove and enough food in the cabin, as well as a small portion of spirits. This was an inspiration to the warriors.

The brigadier general wrapped in the bearskin greatcloak cast his eyes on the dim sea from time to time, in the middle of the wind and waves, on the sea near the Thunder Slasher, "Great Chief's Fist", that **** tribal ship has not sunk yet, this is really not a good news.

When he looked at the blood-red fist of the Great Chief, Orc Commodore Nazgrim was also looking at him. This orc general was not as neatly dressed as Taylor, he just buttoned a sailor on his head. Wear an old leather hat to show your identity.

This orc is not too young anymore. He is considered a rare navigator among the orcs. During the period when the old and new tribes alternated, Nazgrim was separated from the tribe during the war and served as a **** on the merchant ship of the goblin consortium. He even achieved the position of captain all the way. After Thrall issued a call, the gold captain surrendered to Orgrimmar for the first time. He was considered the leading figure in the orc navy.

He doesn’t like human beings, especially when he received this mission to be carried out with Kul Tiras and the ships of the Stormwind Kingdom, he even thought about rejecting it, but in the end, the sense of mission flowing in the blood still made him carry The boys set off and entered the most dangerous North Sea all the way.

Tyler and Nazgrim's eyes collided on the dark ocean tide. After a few seconds, the two almost made a provocative gesture to each other as a colleague, and then turned and left.

This scene completely fell into the eyes of Brigadier General Matthew in the stern of the Kul Tiras "enterprise" battleship piloting ahead. The Brigadier General who was younger than the other two sneered and wore white gloves. His hand took his pipe from the table, and then focused all of his attention on the shabby chart spread out in front of him.

On the decks of the ships of Kul Tiras, the strongest navy, there are automatic cleaning robots from Gnomeregan. Their sailors do not need to perform dangerous work in this kind of weather. In this special mission, the First Sea The confidence of a powerful country is fully displayed, not only the crushing of combat effectiveness, but also the direct suppression of higher-level naval warfare civilization.

But this is the case. When faced with this chart that was handed over to him by the Duke of Mograine, Brigadier General Matthew was still a little bit incredulous. He used this rough chart to enter the dangerous North Sea and explore the two. A place that probably doesn't exist at all?

He seriously doubted whether the Duke of Mograine sent them to die, but after setting sail, on the first weekend, they were on the sea outside the Icecrown Glacier, on the edge of the North Sea, west of the Icecrown Glacier, and found the first one. Seat available for docking in the harbour.

Everything seemed to happen in a dream, but it did exist. In the dangerous area covered by crushed ice, Matthew, Taylor, and Nazgrim personally boarded the island. It was the size of a city, completely It can be used as the logistics base of the coalition forces closest to the Icecrown Glacier, and it was only then that Matthew understood the true meaning of this chart.

Although Mograine did not directly say what these two landing points will be used for, all the generals present are all battle-tested generals. If you think about it, you can understand that the coalition is preparing for a large army in the Dragonblight Wilderness. On the other hand, it was the meaning behind the fact that it was quietly looking for a landing point in the North Sea.

After truly understanding the mission he had undertaken, Matthew immediately ordered the anchor to be pulled and set sail, leaving only a handful of mages and craftsmen to build a temporary fortress here. The island named "Entrepreneurship Island" is far from the ice cap. The glacier itself is still some distance away, and coupled with the harsh weather in the North Sea, there will not be a large number of undead to detect, it is simply a perfect surprise location.

The remaining navy is thinking about the inland waters of the North Sea at an extremely fast speed. Since the first island exists, the second landing point must also exist, and this landing point is on the body of the ice cap. The first wave of the undead's attack is necessarily equivalent to building a forward base next to the throne of the Lich King. Whether it is strategy or tactics, it is of great significance.

"Clang!" "Clang!"

The sharp bell interrupted Matthew's thinking. He grabbed the telescope and opened the window behind him to look back. Not far behind the Entertainer, a monster that jumped out of the sea was facing the chief. The fist slammed past, and the alarm bell just now sounded by the captain of the Enterprise.

It was a blue sea monster. The part of its body that paid to the turbulent sea was at least 20 meters long. It was huge. It was covered with fish scales and twisted bone spurs. It was like a mountain of meat floating on the sea, spraying from its mouth. The extremely cold ice stream almost froze the hull of the Warchief's Fist.

This is the North Sea Sea Monster, the creature that represents the **** of death in the legends of fishermen. In fact, it is only a huge creature that lives in the deepest part of the North Sea. It is extremely aggressive. When a general merchant ship encounters it, it must be dead and dead. .

But it was not facing an ordinary merchant ship. Nazgrim was holding a blood-red heavy axe. As soon as the sea monster struck, he grabbed the rope and jumped onto the sea monster. The heavy axe in his hand He cut the sea monster's eyes mercilessly, and the intense pain caused the sea monster to stop spraying, struggling constantly, trying to get rid of the little bug above his head.

The orcs and sailors who reacted also opened fire for the first time. The large-caliber naval guns bought from the goblins kept roaring, smashing the red shells on the sea monster’s body, although every attack could only be on the sea monster. There was a small opening left on his body, but the burning pain was enough to make the sea monster, a creature without much intelligence, feel threatened.

Its body continued to rotate on the surface of the sea, using its powerful tail to evoke a vortex under the surface of the sea. Nazgorin was caught off guard and the heavy axe in his hand fell into the sea, and he was holding onto the sea monster with difficulty. With the sharp horns on his waist, he constantly slashed his head with the cutting axe on his waist. This scene, with the lightning and thundering sky and the roaring sea, looks like a picture of "orcs and the sea" that makes people blood boil. .

However, no matter how beautiful this picture is, it cannot change Nazgrim’s state at this time. It is extremely dangerous. Although the opponent is also a powerful fighter, in the face of the mighty force of heaven and earth and the counterattack of the giant beast, only one slip is needed. Let him be completely buried in the sea and fall into the tumbling North Sea in this kind of weather. The chance of falling is less than 1%!

But at the moment when Kul Tiras’s naval guns were ready, another golden figure appeared from the "Royal Mission". He was holding the cable, and when the cable flew to the highest point, he moved towards The sea monster jumped out, holding a slender, sharp, flaming giant harpoon in both hands.

That's Tyler! The veteran who has withstood the test of anger and built the navy of the Stormwind Kingdom. At this time, only such a madman has the courage to jump on the sea monster that initiated the death spin, but Tyler is better than Nazgrin. It was that he was wearing special boots covered with steel barbs. When Tyler fell on top of the sea monster, a brilliant explosion of thunder lighted up behind him. With the stability of his feet, the veteran would pour his hands on him. The special kerosene, the harpoon burning violently, pierced the head of the sea monster under his feet.

"puff!"

Under the entanglement of blood-red anger, the long harpoon in Taylor's hand sank into the head of the big monster, like a hot red iron needle pierced into the brain of an adult, and immediately rushed into a stench. Blood, the sea monster also wailed frantically, shaking his whole body, Nazgorin could no longer hold on, and with a stroke of his hands, the whole person fell into the sea.

But the next moment, his hand was grabbed by another firm hand, Nazgrim looked up, it was Taylor, this human veteran grabbed his hand, his eyes were still full of disdain, but the next moment, he With a sway of his hand, Nazgrim leaped on the broken ice beside him with the force of the jump.

As long as it does not fall asymptomatically, high-ranking warriors are unlikely to die from falling. Tyler also fell on the body of the frantic sea monster, untied his boots, and took advantage of the fast forward speed of the sea monster. The man made an arc of light in the air and fell onto another piece of ice.

After the two generals got out of the trap, more than a dozen cannons popped out from the tail of the Enterprise at the same time. The special cone-shaped armor-piercing projectile effortlessly hit the body of the fast-diving sea monster, knocking its body out. More than a dozen **** cavities, and then another round of precise shelling, completely ruined the life of this sea monster.

In less than ten minutes, the body of this giant beast surfaced.

Nazgrim and Taylor were also sent to the boat. Just a few hours later, when the sailors were tasting the unusually delicious grilled sea monster meat, the tall, icy, solemn figure of Icecrown also appeared. In the telescopes of several commanders.

There is also a step almost suspended in the air carved on the glacier, the thick natural ice cap on the top of the glacier and the cracks that can be seen everywhere, and the ruins of a long decayed wharf.

All this shows one thing. It seems that there have been traces of biological landing here decades ago, but now, there is no doubt that this place has been abandoned.

The sea monster that appeared suddenly seemed to have brought good luck, and the landing point that was hardly marked had appeared in front of him in an unbelievable way.
