Azeroth Shadow Trail - v2 Chapter 1797
Chapter 1797 23. How to develop the strongest commander in the workplace
“Let me protect an alien emperor? No, I won’t do this! I’m here to fight demons, not to be a bodyguard.”
On the city wall of Suramar, the young Illidan received an order, but he was not willing to obey, but argued with the Hippogryph knight who came to convey the order:
“I should be charging with Lord Ravencrest! That’s where I should go.”
“But the high lord didn’t give you a chance to refuse, recruit.”
Hippogryph knight proudly said:
“This is a war, everyone has their own responsibilities, the high lord is about to go to the front, you better be honest. Go to the city guard and choose your entourage, Illidan.
If the furry emperor is injured, then you will have to take on this ‘diplomatic accident’. “
After finishing speaking, he drove the Hippogryph to fly into the city, without giving the young Moon Guard any more chance to defend himself, leaving Illidan alone in the wind.
The young man eager to stand out clenched his fists.
He seriously suspected that this group of arrogant noble **** was taking the opportunity to suppress him. After all, to most of the commanders of Black Rook Hold, Illidan Stormrage was just a lucky bastard.
but it is not the truth.
Although Illidan did accidentally break into the high lord’s hunting ground when the demon attacked the high lord Ravencrest, he fought the demon bravely and finally killed him and rescued the injured high lord. own strength and courage.
Lord Ravencrest is a big man who values talents, but unfortunately not all noble commanders under his command have big hearts.
Now that things have come to this, Illidan is useless no matter how angry he is. He calmed himself down, carrying his moon staff and riding the black panther quickly to the barracks of the city guards.
Illidan frowned at the poor quality of the city defense troops who were scared to death when they heard the war coming.
All of them had panic written all over their faces, their hands holding weapons were shaking, and their officers were even more pale as they sat beside the city wall and muttered to themselves.
“Just a bunch of civilians.”
Illidan, who has received strict training in Black Rook Castle, and has a lot of knowledge, complained.
He doesn’t have any hope for his “attendant” anymore. Bringing such a guy to the battlefield is completely looking for trouble for himself. He is thinking about whether to support the reckless alien emperor alone.
I was still complaining that the pandaren emperor was too busy.
However, when Illidan turned to leave, he accidentally saw a young elf in the uniform of the city defense army walking in the crowd. He looked like a recruit, but the guy was encouraging his companions.
And by his side were already a few city defense soldiers who were as young as him, but at least not trembling. Although they were all recruits, those people obviously regarded this young man as a leader.
This made Illidan interested.
“Recruit! Yes, it’s you, come here!”
Riding on his black panther, Illidan imitated his usual behavior of those **** officers, and raised his momentum, and shouted to the strange young elf in a proud tone.
The latter was stunned for a moment. When he saw Illidan’s Moon Guard robes and the rank of sergeant on his chest, the young elf straightened his waist and stepped forward quickly.
He gave a neat military salute and said:
“City Guard warrior Jarod Shadowsong reports to you, sir! Is there anything I can help you with?”
“Have you been on the battlefield?”
Recruit Illidan coughed and said to the recruit Jarod in front of him:
“I have a secret mission that needs help. You are the only one in this group of bad recruits, but I explained in advance that this mission is very dangerous. We have to face the devil, and you may die on the battlefield.”
“I’m not afraid, sir.”
Garrod, who only joined the city defense army yesterday, tried his best to show his courage. He stood up and said loudly:
“I joined the army to protect my people. Although I have never been on the battlefield, I have been familiar with the biographies of the ranger generals since I was a child, and I have also taught myself the “Black Rook Castle Infantry Code” and “The Hunter Troop Training Code”.
“Very good, very spirited.”
Illidan felt very satisfied. Although he was a rookie who had never seen blood before, he was at least imposing, much better than other soldiers who were scared to death.
The dwarf General Liba can only choose him, after all, he doesn’t have many choices.
“Then, pick ten people yourself, then go to your commander to pick up the Hippogryphs and weapons, and we’ll set off in ten minutes!”
“Yes, sir.”
Joy welled up in Jarrod’s eyes, he felt that someone finally saw his talent.
But before leaving, he still whispered:
“Sir, what is our mission? I’m ready.”
“That’s it.”
Illidan really couldn’t tell the task of “protecting foreign guests”, but fortunately, young elves always have a little bit of intelligence. He rolled his amber eyes and whispered mysteriously:
“We’re going to the front line to detect the movement of demons. This is a very dangerous mission, but our brave companions have already set off. I don’t want them to wait too long. Do you have any questions?”
“No more, sir.”
Garrod felt a little guilty when he heard that it was a reconnaissance mission.
The reconnaissance before this kind of war has always been carried out by the most elite hunters, and he did not understand why the moon guard in front of him chose him.
But there is no doubt that it was a challenge for his nascent career.
The young soldier took a deep breath and ran to apply for weapons and mounts from his superior. The frightened aristocratic superior was not in the mood to argue with the young man Jarod and gave him permission.
Garrod chose ten soldiers who were as young but brave as him and walked into the city defense army’s arsenal, but he was dumbfounded as soon as he entered.
Although the defense of Suramar City is slack, the fairies who are not bad are still very serious about investing in armaments. This warehouse is filled with armor and weapons that can arm thousands of people.
There are more than 20 kinds of weapons scattered around.
For Jarod Shadowsong, who has rich theoretical experience but zero actual combat experience, he was suddenly confused and didn’t know what weapons to use to arm himself.
The recruits behind him also numb their claws, and they all turn their eyes to Jarod.
Although everyone was recruits, Garrod had at least theories, and the soldiers who came from civilians didn’t even have theories.
“Choose wing blades or double knives, each person has a set of ranger chain mail, bring a war bow, three pot arrows and signal arrows for sending messages, don’t bring more.
Warehouse The second warehouse has magic arrows and magic cloaks specially prepared for officers.
That’s a good thing, don’t miss it”
A voice appeared in Jarod’s heart, causing the young elf to be at a loss.
But the next moment, he regained his senses and assumed the stance of a leader, repeating the words just now to his soldiers.
The soldiers who heard the clear command immediately acted, and Jarod walked quickly to the second warehouse. He glanced at the locked warehouse in front of him, and suddenly hesitated.
“Smash it open!”
The sound of sounded again, and the young soldier grabbed the unbladed gun barrel and slammed it against the lock. With a click, the door of the warehouse was opened.
“Who are you?”
Garrod rushed in and took out the shimmering magic arrows and gave them to his soldiers, while asking a question in his heart.
“I am your conscience.”
That voice answered solemnly:
“It’s been a long time since we talked, my dear Jarod Shadowsong. You better hurry up, Illidan is getting impatient.
You don’t want to see him angry.
Also, I know you’re going to ask a lot of boring questions, so I’ll tell you, your sister Maiev Shadowsong is among the vanguards you’re going to support.
I hope this news gives you a little more courage and motivation. “
“Maev?”
Garrod exclaimed and said:
“How did she go to the front?”
“Fate is like this, don’t ask any more questions. Do you see the sword in front of you? It’s the best weapon in the storeroom, take it with you, I hope you can use it.”
That voice Well, Black said something to Jarod.
The young elf became anxious after hearing his sister’s name. He stopped asking questions and silently grabbed the elf-style two-handed sword in front of him and swung it a few times in the same place. Bring your weapon.
“Hurry up! Hurry up, the pioneers are waiting for our support, brothers.”
He urged his soldiers, and personally helped these recruits wear war bows and chain armor. Although he was a recruit, he had already acquired a bit of the momentum that a grassroots commander should have under his anxiety.
A few minutes later, the fully armed warriors rushed out of the warehouse. Illidan saw these guys rushing out in a good manner, and immediately glanced at Jarod who took the lead.
He felt as if he had found a treasure.
If he can come back, he must introduce this talented young man to Lord Ravencrest.
After noticing the magical greatsword carried by Jarod and the magical arrows carried by the soldiers, Illidan grinned, threw the reins of the Hippogryph to him, and praised:
“This is a magic weapon that only lieutenants are qualified to use. Well, your vision is good, I hope your combat skills are as strong as your vision.
Set off! “
—
The flying speed of Xianglong was very fast. Thirty minutes after leaving Suramar City, the candle dragon flew to Suramar with Shaohao and the Monkey King, and Miss Maiev Shadowsong who came to be the guide together. Near the mountains southeast of the Great Plains.
This is the only way to the elven capital Xin Azali, as long as you go over the mountain, you can see the magnificent capital in the distance.
“They’re there!”
In the sky, the monkey demigod swayed left and right, and soon found the traces of people moving in the mountains and forests, but in fact, there was no need for the Monkey King to guide the direction, because both Shaohao and Mai Wei saw the flaming bears burning in the mountains and forests in the distance. fire.
A demon is marching!
Those destroyers from other worlds are setting fire to mountains, this is definitely not to hunt down those fleeing, they are just enjoying the joy of destruction.
Shaohao pulled the reins with a cold face, and let the candle dragon fly to a higher place to provide a better view. After three minutes, they approached the burning forest and turned their eyes to the plain on the other side of the mountain.
The next moment, everyone held their breath.
The black “turbid current” has run through the plains of Sin Azali.
They are marching here from the elven capital, not only the terrifying army that has turned into ruins in the noisy places on the ground, but also the chaotic mephits and flying demons in the sky.
They are like a cloud covering the light, moving in the direction of Suramar
Do not!
Not just Suramar!
With Shaohao’s eyesight, he could clearly see that there were other demon legions in the distance moving in other directions.
The once glorious Shin-Athali has become an evil lair on the earth, and the defilers bred from that lair are polluting this land belonging to the elves like ink poured into a basin.
“It’s just their vanguard.”
Shaohao remembered the future prophecy he saw in the holy land of the Jinyu people. He remembered the barren land completely polluted by the power of fel energy in front of his eyes. The apocalyptic scene stimulated the emperor’s mind and made him clench tightly. The Dragon Staff in his hand.
“Save them, the devil is slaughtering them.”
Maiev’s focus was on the ground.
The elves who escaped from Zin-Athalee are being hunted by a large group of demon hounds, although some of them are constantly opening portals to let others flee, but after being chased for several days, these escapees are exhausted. .
It is impossible for them to escape the pursuit of the demons, but they are still alive. The only explanation is that the demons treat them as hunted “beasts” to enjoy their horror and make fun of it.
“Miss priest, you come to control my dragon.”
Shaohao also saw the miserable innocents on the ground, he handed the reins to Maiev and said:
“You guide them to flee, and the Monkey King and I will block reinforcements for you and buy time.”
“This”
Maiev was shocked by Shaohao’s actions, she said:
“You are a noble emperor! You cannot do such a dangerous thing.”
“Your queen is also an emperor, and she shouldn’t do such a bad thing.”
Shaohao shook his head and said:
“It is not chivalrous to see death and not save.”
After speaking, the chubby and furry emperor jumped down from the flying dragon, inspiring his true qi in the air and turning it into a flying cyan dragon phantom, and smashed into the ferocious dragon with the low dragon roar. Among the Demon Hounds.
When landed, the shock from the strong infuriating qi smashed those disgusting lower-level demons out, and in the flying cyan light feathers, he swirled his body and made a deadly maneuver, sweeping away the surrounding enemies like an elegant crane.
“Ow”
The golden cloud serpent descended from the sky, and the candle dragon was also enraged by the ugly aura of these demons.
It raised its head and exhaled golden dragon breath towards the ground. The flame full of positive energy ignited the forest and shaped the burning golden wall of fire to separate the refugees and the demons.
“Big big big big!”
The Monkey King flicked his tail lightly and landed on the ground, waving his ordinary and simple monk’s stick. Under its happy call, the stick in his hand continued to grow bigger and thicker like magic, and finally it was like a battering hammer. He was also caught in the hands of the monkey demigod and whistled and swept in a round. Under the astonished gaze of the elf refugees, the demons who hunted them were smashed into the air this round.
They don’t know who these helpers are, but at this moment these two guys are undoubtedly their saviors.
“Compatriots! Come with me!”
Maiev, who was lying on the head of the candle dragon, shouted loudly:
“Elune will guide your way, don’t be afraid, bring up the children and the wounded, and the others move forward! Lord Ravencrest has set up a position in the Great Temple.
Go there and you’ll be safe!
quick!
follow me! “
There was a burst of cheers and weeping from the crowd. When they saw the familiar Moon Priest appear in this dangerous place, it was like a cardiotonic injection into the hearts of these poor people, which made them burst out with more courage to persevere. to the end of the escape.
“Sister! Sister is there!”
While Maiev gathered the refugees, Garrod and his party, who hurried over on a hippogryph, also saw the golden serpent and Maiev, which made Garrod heave a sigh of relief.
The next moment, he heard his “conscience” say to him:
“Alternate cover, clear the airspace, and protect these refugees on the perimeter. They will spread your bravery and wisdom, Garrod, you will become a hero after this battle.”
“I don’t want to be a hero.”
Garrod made several gestures and directed the excited soldiers to spread out. He said to Black in his heart:
“I just want to protect these innocents.”
“Yes, that’s it, just tell yourself that.”
Blackla said in a long voice:
“Protectiveness, this is a beautiful quality shared by all heroes. Although I don’t understand it, I won’t stop you from having it. Go and do what you need to do, don’t worry about your sister.
I will protect her. “
“Huh? You’re here for your sister?”
Jarrod blinked his eyes in surprise. He took off the war bow behind his back and put an arrow at the mephit that fell down in the sky. He said:
“Mysterious man, are you pursuing my sister?”
No one answered him.
Obviously, the chip pirates who came to travel through time and space for Maiev are not willing to answer this stupid question.
