Azeroth Shadow Trail - v2 Chapter 1775

   Chapter 1775 1. Sorry for disturbing your ceremony, but don’t expect me to compensate

In the splendid and prestigious Tianchan Temple, the holy land of warrior monks, the morning sun has not yet risen, and there is a faint white light in the sky, but the diligent ministers are already dressed in court clothes and standing outside their emperor’s meditation room .

   This is the tradition of the Pandaren Dynasty.

More than 2,000 years have passed since “Fist of Dawn” Master Kong led the pandaren slaves to break free from the brutal rule of the mogu warlords, but this dynasty still leads the people of this rich land like the rising sun. The tribes advance.

Although the pandaren retained the ruling system left by the mogu, and even used the mogu’s words as their own words to record history, but as slaves, they obviously learned from the cruelty of the mogu. He ruled his own dynasty based on benevolence.

   This makes all the tribes, including pandaren, jinyu, yaungol, and even the wicked hozen, willing to accept the command of a benevolent and wise emperor.

   Of course, this is also because the panda people have excellent farming skills, allowing them to produce enough food to feed themselves and other allies.

  Without the danger of starvation, even the hozen can live in peace with the rabbit demons.

   It’s amazing that the emperors of the pandaren dynasty rarely have faint kings. Of course, this has nothing to do with blood, but it does not stem from pure coincidence.

Apart from the fact that the princes had to accept complicated lessons since they were young to learn doctrine and governance skills, and to seek martial arts skills from the monk masters to strengthen their bodies, they had to go through a very special experience before they were officially crowned emperors. ceremony.

  It was a ceremony presided over by the mysterious Jinyu prophets who could predict the future, and the emperors could see their own life from that secret ceremony.

   They can see the great things they have done and the terrible mistakes they have made, and they will learn from that prophecy so that they do not repeat the same mistakes.

A ceremony like    is obviously very good for a ruler.

  Although occasionally a revelation of fate can lead rulers to change one mistake and trigger another tragic tragedy, by and large, this mysterious ritual has always prevented the Pandaren dynasty from entering a period of irreversible decline.

   This is actually a kind of “cheating”.

But the supreme gods of Pandaria have never expressed their views on this behavior of maintaining rule through prophecy. The four honorable gods obviously also want to see long-term peace and stability on this land, so the pragmatic panda people put this Tradition is passed on.

today!

  Today is the day when the new emperor will be baptized by prophecy. For the traditional pandaren dynasty, this is an absolute event!

   The wisest courtier who was born in Lorewalker looked up and looked at the first ray of sunlight in the east rising in the mountains of the beautiful Jade Forest. He solemnly sorted out his cumbersome and solemn ceremonial clothes, and put on his crown.

   He leaned on a peach wood stick that symbolized auspiciousness, twisted his beard and smiled and shouted to the meditation room in front of him:

   “Your Majesty, the elders of the Water Whisperers are ready. Before the rising sun, you should set off for the holy land of the Jinyu people.”

   “Well, you should correct your title, my wise prime minister.”

  The person in the meditation room was actually awake long ago. He was just waiting for the right time to open the ceremony. Following the call of the prime minister, the door of the meditation room was pushed open by two warrior monks and guards dressed in mighty clothes.

  The tall pandaren wearing a white emperor’s robe, embellished with black jade belts and golden bracelets, and leaning on a uniquely shaped prayer flag cane strode out of the room.

   This is a very young pandaren.

  As can be seen from his sharp eyes and muscular body, he is an outstanding product of the unique and excellent imperial education of the Pandaren Dynasty.

   But he was not overwhelmed by those cumbersome rules, on the contrary, he faced the world and his future with an optimistic attitude.

  In the rising sun, the emperor opened his arms to his courtiers and said with a smile:

   “I will become emperor tomorrow, my subjects.

  You should call me Your Highness now, lest my father be unhappy and send you all to farm in the middle of the mountain, or to guard the mantid on the Dragon’s Back. “

   “Wouldn’t that be better? My Majesty.”

  The already aging prime minister shrugged, the wise old pandaren said with a smile:

“The perennial heavy government affairs are about to crush my old bones. It’s a good thing to leave office and become a farmer in the middle of the mountain, but you can be gentle today, it doesn’t mean that tomorrow’s ceremony, you can also ignore the rules like this, my majesty.

  Tomorrow must restrain all her optimism, and you must make your subjects feel the majesty of the emperor, not to frighten them, but to make sacrifices to maintain order.

   Well, perhaps you should read more of the book I gave you, the experience of rule written by our friend from afar, the queen of the elves herself.

   She said that as an emperor, you must make your subjects feel revered. If you can’t have both, then ‘awe’ must come before ‘reverence’. “

   “You know I don’t like that.”

   The young emperor shook his head.

   He stood on this high hillside and looked down at the beaming palace below, where the monks of the Tianchan Temple were preparing for the celebration of the new emperor’s coronation.

   The beautiful scene brought by this peace made the emperor very happy.

   He supported his old prime minister and said seriously:

   “I prefer to protect my people, not rule them. My ancestors did this. It turns out that people prefer a generous leader to a majestic and ruthless emperor.”

   “Well, that’s true.”

  The old prime minister nodded solemnly and said:

   “But maybe today’s divination and prophecy can change your overly optimistic attitude. You must know that after reading the prophecy, your father did not leave his palace for a whole week.

   He was terrified.

  I guess you are the same, I hope my majesty can perform better in today’s ceremony. “

   “You old thing!”

   The young emperor laughed and scolded:

   “Don’t think you are my teacher, you can make fun of me like this, I will definitely prove my courage to you, so I won’t be frightened by the mere prophecy.”

   “Oh, don’t be so confident, my lord.

   Every emperor made a rhetoric before departure, every emperor will be frightened by his own life, I don’t think you will be an exception, my dear majesty Shaohao. “

   The old prime minister said with a smile:

   “Besides, I’m not just your teacher, I’m also your father’s teacher.

  According to the fine tradition of our pandaren, even if I pull your beard now, you can’t punish me, you have to thank me politely for my teaching.

  Oh, I can’t climb the mountain with my old bones, so I won’t accompany you to the ceremony today, but I specially arranged for the historian of the Lorewalker to record by the side.

   So if you’re not good enough, I’ll know too. “

   “Hmph, I won’t appoint you to continue to be my prime minister.”

   The young emperor pretended to be angry and said to his teacher:

   “Also, I want to visit the kingdom of the elves in person after I take the throne. This is my father’s wish, but unfortunately he was very old when our two countries established diplomatic relations.

   I hope to fulfill my father’s wish. “

   “Of course, I’ll arrange it for you.”

   When it comes to business, the old prime minister immediately became serious. He asked the officials beside him to record the incident, and then whispered to his emperor:

   “I have heard from the young Lorewalkers that the queen of the elves is a lady of remarkable beauty, and may my young majesty not be fascinated by the majesty of her majesty Azshara.

  You know that as an emperor, you must choose a wife from your own clan. “

   “Old and not serious!”

  The young emperor was teased twice by his teacher, but he was not angry because of it. The panda people have always regarded tolerance and tolerance as virtues. As an emperor, he also has a really big heart.

  Because of this, all the courtiers believed that Emperor Shaohao would become one of the best rulers in the history of the pandaren dynasty, and they were very confident in their excellent civilization.

   They do not consider themselves weaker than the kingdom of elves or trolls.

   A quarter of an hour later, as the emperor’s chariot departed from Tianchanyuan, the capital of the entire pandaren kingdom, the land known as the Jade Forest, became lively.

  The children cheered and held up the portrait of Emperor Shaohao and ran after the imperial chariot pulled by eight white divine oxen. Some court attendants grabbed candy and threw them all the way, so that the children could also enjoy the joy of the new emperor’s coming to the throne.

   They called this “Joy with the People”.

The road leading to the Jinyu People’s Holy Land was full of people who came to pay homage to the emperor’s appearance. Whenever the gauze that Emperor Shaohao sat on the imperial chariot was blown away, revealing the emperor’s mighty and handsome posture, there would always be pandaren. The girl screamed in admiration.

   But no one went to drive away these enthusiastic people, and even the young emperor himself felt satisfaction and glory in his heart because of the cheers of the people.

  In the sky, there are also majestic serpents like giant snakes hanging with ribbons as the royal chariots move forward. Those serpents have saddles behind them, riding the most heroic heroes in the pandaren kingdom.

   They are the Cloud Serpent Knights.

   is the most outstanding female general in the history of pandaren, the heroic division formed by the flying woman Jiang in the troll war thousands of years ago, the sword of the emperor and the shield of the empire.

   They are the powerful representatives of the Pandaren Dynasty, and they are also the reliance of the emperor to travel.

   On the way to the Jinyu Holy Land, Emperor Shaohao, sitting on the imperial chariot, thought in his heart that after he completed his visit to the elf empire, it was time to unite with the elves to launch a crusade against the trolls.

  Those savage creatures have been infesting the frontiers of Pandaria, and have been rude to pandaren envoys.

   This is a bad sign.

   I heard that elves and trolls have always had a deep hatred. Perhaps the two empires can unite to contain the ambitious troll empire that wants to re-rise on this continent called Kalimdor.

   In order to complete this war of defending his home and country, Emperor Shaohao needs to form another army to complete the counterattack against the trolls without affecting the defense of Panlongji.

   It may be possible to draw some brave men from the prosperous path of monks to form the emperor’s guard.

   Pandaria does need a standing legion, too.

   With this thought in mind, the young emperor quickly arrived at the holy place of the Jinyu people.

  These graceful creatures come from the water, and they once had a dynasty and civilization as glorious as the pandaren, but unfortunately they were defeated by the betrayal of the hozens in the war with the mogu.

   Since then, the Jinyu and the hozens have become mortal enemies.

  Compared to the stubborn hozens, the civilized and elegant Jinyu people have always been the main force of the pandaren dynasty. There are many wise Jinyu people in the emperor’s court to hold various important positions.

   But what they are best at is still seeing the future from the changes in the currents, which makes the Jinyu people the leading fortune-tellers and prophets in Pandaria.

   “Come with me, young emperor, the holy pool is cleansed, and your destiny is calling.”

  The eldest Jinyu prophet dressed in the most traditional costumes and held a sacred pearl staff to welcome the arrival of Emperor Shaohao. From here, the emperor’s bodyguards could not follow.

   But in the land of Jinyu, pandaren don’t need to worry about their emperor being hurt.

  The torrent juggernauts among the Jinyu people are the deadliest warriors on this land. Their graceful and deadly swordsmanship skills can even compete with the ferocious mantid Hurricane Juggernaut without being defeated.

   “I feel like I’m ready.”

   Shaohao and several historians followed the Jinyu prophet to the sacred pool.

   He was a little nervous. In order to relieve this tension, he joked with the elder Jinyu people around him:

   “I think today I can see not only my fate, or the fate of the empire, but also the fate of the world, maybe.”

   “Well, you really have confidence in yourself, my majesty.”

  The old prophet smiled, and he said witly:

   “But believe me, it is not a good thing to see through the future and destiny too much. It means more responsibility and heavy pressure. Your shoulders are still a little immature. Maybe this pressure should not be borne by you.”

   “Well, I think I can carry more.”

   Shaohao smiled optimistically.

   He took a deep breath, took off his boots with the help of Jinyu, and stood barefoot in the icy pool. Several mysterious Jinyu prophets began to call for the water.

   In front of Shaohao, the calm water suddenly began to spin.

   It was like a magical sorcery or a peculiar magic used by elves. The swirling water stream was like a mirror, shining a light of the future in front of his eyes.

  The emperor’s expression immediately became serious.

   Because he did not see his own destiny, on the contrary, he saw a burning world.

  The huge dark green gate of **** opened on a piece of scorched earth, and he saw the ferocious creatures howling and rushing out of it to slaughter the unarmed elves.

   And behind the huge gate of **** is the gorgeous elf palace, the legendary and beautiful queen is holding a golden goblet in her court and watching her subjects being slaughtered by murderers.

   Then, Shaohao saw the world crumbling and torn apart, and that terrible scene even affected his own country.

   Destruction

   This never imagined future was like an invisible hand gripping the heart of the young emperor, who knew what he had to do to prevent this terrible future from appearing.

   But before the emperor could think for a few more seconds, a sharp scream sounded from the sky.

   This caused everyone in the Holy Land to raise their heads in unison, and then they saw a black figure waving his hands and feet and slamming down from the sky.

   During Emperor Shaohao’s shock and subconsciously taking a step back, that guy smashed into the sacred pool in front of the emperor’s eyes with a thud, shattering the doomsday prophecy that scared Shaohao.

  When the entire Holy Land was in chaos, the uninvited guest who fell from the sky complained loudly, and in a fit of rage he stood up from the chaotic pool with a little fish-man dressed in strange clothes.

   It was a strange life that Shaohao had never seen before.

   He is like an elf, but stronger than an elf.

   The outline of his face is also softer than that of the elf, and the most important thing is his eyes, which are a pair of eyes that complement the sea and the moon.

   Makes one look at it and never forget it.

   But there was also a terrifying shadow in those eyes, a shadow that made the young emperor feel more fearful than the doomsday prophecy, as if he was looking directly at the entire abyss.

  The Jinyu people were angry at the disturbance of the uninvited guest. The murloc swordsmen took out coral blades and strode toward the villain, and the murloc prophets tried to pull the emperor who was stunned in place.

   But the next moment, the uninvited guest who fell from the sky just waved his hand, and the entire chaotic Jinyu Holy Land was instantly quiet.

   “You’ve never seen me, go ahead and do things as if I didn’t exist.”

   That guy spoke in a skilled pandaren language, and under Shaohao’s stunned gaze, all the Jinyu people became quiet as if they had been hypnotized.

   They go about their business again as if nothing had happened.

   Except Shaohao.

   Only he realizes what happened.

  The young and brave emperor immediately reached for his dragon staff, but the next second, the person in front of him reached out and held his furry arm.

   The guy raised his head and gave Shaohao a friendly smile.

He says:

   “You pray for fate to be kind, you pray for disaster to stay away from your kingdom, I heard your prayer, young emperor, so I ordered fate to send me to you.”

   “Hello, Shaohao, we met again, maybe I should say, it’s the first time we met, please take care of me.”
