Chapter 559 Shadow Assassin
Chapter 559 Shadow Assassin
After Godos transformed, the berserk blood orc shaman no longer cared about anyone. Lorraine and Lilith were surrounded in the center of the arena and could not escape for the time being.
The Burning Blade Clan is a large clan; its members have long since drunk the blood of the Abyss Demon Lord, and most of their bodies are red...
Godos is dark red...
It and Goyash, these warlocks and minions of the Shadow Council and Shadowmoon Shaman faction, had previously received a higher degree of fel infusion... and now wield even more elemental and abyssal power.
The appearance of the Molten Giant Hound in Ragefire Rift is already quite illogical...
When the demon emissary Sat'azalan realized the truth, it was already decapitated.
In the last few seconds before complete death, when there was still consciousness...
Its half-head muttered, "Master will not forgive you, will not... You are courting death... Traitors? Are we all destined for the same fate? No... no... Lord of Darkness, Supreme God, Lord Sargeras... We have been carrying out the tasks you entrusted to us, this world has been burning, my blood... is... burning..."
As the last few words became indistinct, Lorraine heard the familiar ancient Elvish language again...
Azaran, a weakling with an almost endless lifespan, was once a Kaldorei nobleman who voluntarily accepted demonic power. He was originally a member of Queen Azshara's court nobility.
They were pleasure-seeking, addicted to the magic of the Well of Eternity, and looked down on the lower-level night elves who hunted in the forests...
When the Dark Titan descended, the Burning Legion promised the Satyr true immortality...
Before the night elves received the blessing of the World Tree from the Red Dragon Queen, most of the high elves chose to betray their people. These nobles were utterly devoid of morality; they held themselves in high esteem, possessing the best resources and looking down upon the lowly elves who toiled and lived extravagant lives...
Ultimately, they let the wolf into the house, and some of them degenerated into Sartre.
Another group of Queen Azshara's close attendants and guards sank to the bottom of the Endless Sea in the vortex created by the explosion of the Well of Eternity. They slept for a thousand years, and when they awoke, they had become Naga sea monsters...
Both the Satyrs and the Nagas were once nobles and druids of the ancient Night Elf Empire...
However, Satir chose to stay with the Burning Legion's demons all the way to the end.
The Naga accepted a gift from an unknown entity, transforming into a monster capable of surviving in water, while serving a new master.
Their owner was Illidan, the Demon Hunter?
Illidan was merely a pawn caught in a trap; though he seemingly controlled most of Outland, he was actually taking advantage of a weakness and forced into hiding...
No! No! No!
Lady Vashj led a contingent of Naga to answer the call of Demon Hunter Illidan, as clearly stated in ancient prophecies. The mastermind behind it all has already revealed its true form: the Old God worshipped by the Twilight's Shadows...
That's right, it's the octopus monster that was originally sealed in the underwater city, the seemingly weakest of the Old Gods, the Thousand-Bearded Demon, N'Zoth...
The true form of the Faceless Ones that Lorraine had dealt with.
N'Zoth dominates the oceans, possessing not only the Faceless Legion and the Naga Minion, but also the enslaved offspring of the water elemental lord Neptulon and the murloc followers... This was already known to the murlocs when the Tide Amulet, a murloc relic, was obtained, but Lorraine, having accepted the gifts from the water elemental lord's followers, never considered helping them escape their predicament.
On the contrary, several times when he tried to get help from the poor merfolk, it only brought them fear and death...
It's all because, as the teacher said, the murlocs bullied every new adventurer who arrived in Azeroth... They deserved it, their hands stained with the blood and bones of otherworldly beings... The tombstones of the poor souls killed by those insignificant murlocs, if laid end to end, could circle Azeroth's equator more than ten times its length...
Speaking of which, Azeroth seems to be a habitable planet only slightly larger than the moon. Similar fragments of Argus and Draenor are not far away. If Lorraine looks up closely, he can always see the blood moon still hanging high, and a green, mottled planet that seems to be constantly close to Azeroth...
......
Witnessing the death of the corrupted demonic stigmata Azaran, Lorraine's thoughts drifted away...
It then remembered the key points the teacher had mentioned...
On the ancient and ravaged continent of Kalimdor, not only are there many traces of the Burning Legion's attack on the World Tree remaining atop Mount Hyjal... but also numerous Wildlands demigods perished in battle across the land, and the Emerald Dream and the Legion's strongholds are also plentiful...
It could appear at either the north or south end, the body part that the adoptive father mentioned...
Given his adoptive father's nature, the body part of the Eastern Kingdoms is likely located in the Northern Deadlands ruled by the Lich King Kel'Thuzad, most likely referring to the City of the Dead, Stratholme.
Or perhaps the mysterious Scholomance Academy, or the ancient troll city of Zul'Aman, hidden not far from the heart of Silvermoon City.
Or perhaps all that's left is the Scourge's stronghold, the Frozen Throne in Northrend, and the Lich King himself...
With Lorraine's current meager strength, let alone the Frozen Throne, Naxxramas, or Zul'Aman, he can't even get close to the gates of Necronomicon or the outskirts of Stratholme.
Therefore, even though they knew there must be something there that the master and apprentice wanted, they couldn't go there for the time being, at least not now.
......
The remaining area is Blade's Edge Mountains in Outland...
There seemed to be a demigod race there, whose ancestors were similar to those of orcs and ogres. The Gruul race could slay dragons, truly tearing black dragons apart with their bare hands. Lorraine felt uneasy just hearing about it, and had no courage to cross the Dark Portal to Outland now.
Moreover, the cursed lands where the Dark Portal is located are in the south-central part of the Eastern Kingdoms.
For the Horde to reach this place, they must travel south from Undercity through the heart of the dwarven and human kingdom of Stormwind, and risk crossing the Burning Steppes, traversing Blackrock Mountain, and passing through the Swamp of Sorrows, among other difficult obstacles.
The Black Dragon Legion and the Flame King might also have parts of the teacher's body on them, and Lorraine will have to go there sooner or later, not now.
Even if you travel in the opposite direction, heading north from Stranglethorn Vale at the southern end of the Eastern Kingdoms, through Deadwind Pass, there lies a mage's sanctuary, Medivh's Keep, Karazhan...
Without a doubt, the mysterious Karazhan is Medivh's private library, containing the secrets and origins of the opening of the Dark Portal.
What a perilous situation that must have been...
.......
Then there's Kalimdor, where another Titan city, Uldum, is hidden at the edge of the northern desert. It's said that the Titans set up another furnace there, capable of directly destroying all life on the surface of Azeroth and achieving purification and restart. How dangerous such a place is!
Even so, in the neighboring Tanaris, where the insectoid swarm resides, the observers of the Cenarius Council of Druids and the Dragon Guardians are constantly watching the precarious Shifting Sands... Inside, there is also a truly powerful Old God, C'Thun, the Thousand-Eyed Demon... To see that ancient, imprisoned being, one must confront an insectoid empire that once dominated half of Azeroth.
A battle of that scale would likely be impossible to defeat without the Horde and Alliance joining forces, and without the Protectors of Azeroth acting together...
This place also contains many lost ruins, territories occupied by various mysterious races, and the ruins of ancient elven cities...
It seems that Lorraine's progress is too slow.
A month has passed in the blink of an eye, and all I've done is wander around the core cities of the two continents of the tribe...
No wonder the godfather ignored the master and disciple; his dawdling was truly astonishing...
However, to put it another way, the wonder and vastness of the world of Azeroth cannot be summed up in just a few words or a single sentence.
If we don't learn about those heroic figures who fought through time and left a deep mark on history, how can we understand the continuation of various civilizations and races, and the inheritance of justice? It was all bought with extremely heavy prices by our ancestors and warriors.
Who doesn't reach the top step by step, one step at a time?
Many others fell before dawn, unknown and forgotten, turning into dust, unable to achieve their wishes.
......
For example, the female orc holding the head of the corrupted demon Satyr has a sense of vicissitude in her eyes. Her hair is somewhat gray, but her figure is flawless, with muscle lines like the golden ratio of a mermaid. Her skin is somewhat greenish-blue, which is indescribably eerie.
The collar around her neck was spiked, digging into her flesh; her neck was covered in wounds...
The collar is engraved with demonic runes, which still gleam with a green, demonic light.
Several discolored, mummy-like bandages were wrapped around her vital parts. She exuded a primal and powerful aura; it seemed she had severed Sartre's head with a single chain, her killing intent overwhelming. Even from a distance, Lorraine felt a chill run down her spine...
One of the dangerous figures from the stone man's mouth has finally appeared...
The arrogance on the berserk orc shaman Godos's face noticeably diminished upon seeing her... but he still shouted, "You disgusting bastard, a sinner of the Shadow Council, who dared to break your shackles and unleash you, you scourge!"
