The eyes of mortals will always be attracted by major events, and the sudden outbreak of chaos will blind the minds of the crowd and inspire the violent side that they usually hide in their hearts. These violent factors born in the chaos will use all channels they can find.
Flow to every corner of the world wrapped in panic and fear.
Regardless of whether the human civilization in Azeroth is good or bad, there are always many dissatisfied people in this system, as well as people who desperately seek power. They will naturally be attracted by the tyranny wandering among the crowd, and then, more
More people like them will appear.
In the past human history, there were many dark organizations that used taboo power to try to destroy or challenge the order they were dissatisfied with. In the past confrontations with the solid and indestructible order, these evils would most of the time lose.
But failure does not mean destruction. In the shadow of human civilization, they have been hiding in their own small and smelly sewers, watching everything in the outside world with eyes that yearn for violence... just like rats peeping at power.
Once order becomes shaky, their chance comes.
This is why we say that true evil is often attracted to pure darkness... War and chaos are not the most terrifying thing, followed by those twisted souls who long for darkness to come and what they will do
Things are the most terrifying.
Everything that happens in the Eastern Continent cannot be hidden from the civilians. The super-large-scale war that may start in the wetlands and Arathi Highlands at any time is like a dark cloud covering the sky, hanging firmly on the people's heads, making them panic and uneasy.
They feel fear, when the familiar life is about to be destroyed, and anyone with strong guidance will become crazy.
And this war between the living and the dead has even spread to corners that people don't pay attention to, such as the country of the sea, Kul Tiras.
As one of the most important kingdoms of human civilization, Kul Tiras has the most powerful maritime power in the world. Their invincible fleet has been protecting the sea frontiers of human civilization and those who do all kinds of evil for the past hundreds of years.
Fight against pirates, as well as deep-sea monsters that occasionally appear from under the sea, to ensure the safety of the interior.
The difference between Kul Tiras and other countries is that this country's political system is not a blood-line king system, but is controlled by the four major families that rule the island country.
They are respectively the Proudmoore family who control Boralus, the most prosperous port city in Kul Tiras, and the Proudmoore family who command the Armada.
House Stormsong rules over the most fertile valley floor of Stormsong in Kul Tiras, as well as the mysterious Tideseer Sanctuary.
The Waycrest family rules the Drustvar Mountains, the most remote mountainous area in Kulturas, but is also an important source of military resources in Kulturas.
Finally, there is the Ashvane family, which is in charge of most of the commercial transactions in the entire Kul Tiras. It does not have many fiefdoms, but it is very wealthy.
The king of Kul Tiras will be born from these four families, and the current king of Kul Tiras is the well-known son of the sea, the undefeated admiral of the sea, His Majesty Daelin Proudmoore.
.
The situation in the Eastern Continent has been tense recently, and Dai Lin also left Kul Tiras with two fleets to support the war of the Human Empire. Perhaps at the beginning, there were some political considerations for this support.
But now, after the fall of Khaz Modan, Dailin has also seen the terrible threat posed by the undead. Once the empire's territory falls, even Kul Tiras, who lives far away from abroad, cannot be immune.
Although the king took away more than half of the military power, Kul Tiras was still relatively stable. After all, the advantage of the four major families co-governing was that each family's private soldiers were enough to manage every piece of land in Kul Tiras.
, and because of the recent threat of war, many nobles and merchants from the mainland have moved to Kul Tiras for refuge. This has made the Ashvane family's business network more prosperous, and the entire island country has also become more fully established.
human Resources.
However, no matter how peaceful the place is, there are still hidden figures of darkness. Especially in the past month, the Drustvar Mountains ruled by the Waycrest family have become less peaceful.
The Drustvar Mountains are not a pleasant place even in Kul Tiras. It is said that in distant times, when the first generation of ancestors set foot on the territory of Kul Tiras, it was in Drust that
The Swarovski Mountains fought a battle with the local barbarians who believed in evil beliefs. The battle was very difficult. Many warriors died in the dark mountains of Drustvar. Their ghosts are still there to this day.
Eternal battles were fought on the battlefields of the past.
This legend itself illustrates some of the characteristics of the Drustvar region: supernatural, decayed, and gloomy. In the lush black forest, there are always some disturbing forces lingering.
Cyrus, the most loyal knight of His Majesty Dailin, was born here. He once told the king the story of when he was chased by the dark force in Drustvar when he was a child.
That's true... Such encounters are actually not uncommon in the Drustvar Mountains, especially in the dense forests deep in the mountains. Some people say that evil witches live there. Anyone who dares to step into it will be
Killed mercilessly...or turned into a pig, secretly thrown into the farm by them, then slaughtered by unknowing butchers, and finally disappeared from people's dining tables.
Well, of course, the latter story is often used by parents to scare unruly children, although... this is a real tragedy that has happened more than once.
"quack."
A scream as hoarse as a night owl sounded in the dark jungle of Drustvar, accompanied by the panicked sound of several young people running. They were dressed in sailor's clothes and seemed to have accidentally entered the dense forest.
Outsiders, because locals will not take the initiative to enter here no matter what.
"Run away, run away!"
The sneaky voice sounded like that of an old woman, but the viciousness contained in it was terrifying. Among the swaying trees in the dense forest, several wooden sculptures tied with bones and wood to look like beasts were endowed with dark magic.
, allowing them to run and hunt in the dark like real beasts. There is no doubt that this is a kind of dark magic that has never appeared on the continent.
A dark sorcery that only exists in Kul Tiras.
Behind those ferocious wood-carved beasts is a man holding a wooden stick, wearing dark red tattered clothes, with strange pendants of dead bones and trees on his back, wearing a worn-out conical hat, and an ugly face with a sharp nose and vicious eyes.
Woman with wrinkles on her face.
She looks very old, but her eyes look very young. This is the witch, the real evil of Drustvar, and her appearance really scares those misbehaving children to tears.
As she walked forward slowly, she waved the wooden stick in her hand. In the flash of strange magic, the things around her that were fixed in the field like scarecrows also moved their bodies with rattling sounds. Those dead objects were moved by
Given the ability to move, he joined this terrible hunt with stiff steps.
"You have brought me fresh flesh and blood again. Maybe...it would be a good choice to turn you into meat on the table, quack quack."
The ugly witch looked at the three young men running away in front of her, and her laughter became more cunning and deeper. However, she did not notice that although the three young men looked very embarrassed, they would also scream in fear from time to time.
But they always kept their figures in front of the witch with aloofness, and their steps seemed too light.
Unfortunately, the witch, who was already overwhelmed by the fresh souls, did not notice this. She chased these "prey" and left her home covered with dark spells. The moment she stepped out of the protection of the runes, a group of
Screaming vampire bats rushed out of the dark forest. They were hovering in the air and screaming. They were caught off guard and enveloped the witch in the bat group.
"Ah, get away! Get away!"
The witch's skin was torn open, and blood rolled out along the wound. The blood with dark magic was absorbed bit by bit. The witch waved the wooden stick crazily, smashing the magic in all directions, but she was still unable to hurt the person.
An endless swarm of bats.
Not far in front of her, the three young men who were fleeing also turned around. Without saying a word, they drew out the thin swords from their waists. Facing the wooden beasts that were chasing after them, a flash of light flashed in the eyes of these three young men.
A thin streak of blood and a halo of blood wrapped around their bodies, making them faster. The ordinary rapier was also endowed with a certain ability to break demons.
In the battle that jumped like ghosts, the incoming wooden beasts were torn into pieces of wood in a few minutes. At the same time, the screaming witch was also drained by a quarter.
The blood of Yi was paralyzed by the poison, and the body collapsed weakly on the ground.
Looking at the strange young people surrounding them, looking at their handsome faces, and the beating blood in their eyes, no matter how stupid the witch is, she knows that she has stepped into a trap, and that she is the real prey.
.
"No one dares to mess with the coven!"
The ugly witch struggled and tried to get up, but the next moment, the scattered bats around her body shone with a bloody halo, and turned into a man wearing a black hunting suit with an indifferent expression. Behind the young people,
A human woman with a hot figure and a baby face also appeared wearing a blood-colored dress and holding a ruby staff.
Countess Dabel brushed her long black hair with her fingers wearing luxurious white gloves. She looked disdainfully at the ugly witch at the feet of her servant. This new-born human vampire flirted with the three men behind her respectfully.
Hooking their fingers, they stepped forward like the most obedient slaves and locked up the ugly witch with special chains.
"Witches? Haha...a group of hidden rats, a weak organization that has declined in time. If the secret behind you hadn't been noticed by the big shots, with such an ugly face, you wouldn't be qualified to continue living in this beautiful world.
In the world..."
Countess Dabel Montrose covered her nose with her fingers to keep herself away from the smelly witch, and she whispered:
"Your sleight-of-hand witchcraft can only scare those ignorant civilians, and you dare to scream in front of us. You have no idea who you are facing, a stupid and lucky guy."
"Take her away!"
The vampire lady waved her hand, and the three blood servants pressed the struggling witch towards the hillside. On the coastline on the other side, there was a merchant ship anchored on the sea waiting for them.
"Captain Anthony, would you like to go with me to the witch's mansion to take a look?"
The vampire lady looked at the calm and indifferent man in front of her, and she invited with a smile: "This is the first mission we have carried out for His Majesty. I believe that if we can bring back something more valuable, your generous Majesty will definitely
Give us richer returns."
"Of course, my lady, I do."
"Iron Horn" Captain Anthony reached out and touched his younger face. He followed Countess Dabel obediently and walked towards the place where the witch came. He was originally a captain in the Barov family's caravan.
, during this long journey, he was spotted by this lonely countess. After a satisfying night of romance, he became the first servant and the strongest servant of this outstanding countess.
Big servant.
Blood Servant... The perfect embodiment of Salaine's blood transformation ability. After the blood lords broke through the shackles of Salaine's bloodline, the newly transformed blood servants can already retain their own reason and wisdom. Of course, for someone as lowly as Ms. Dabel,
For a first-class vampire, the number of blood servants she could transform was very small. On a ship with more than a hundred people, including Captain Anthony, she could only transform four blood servants.
If he is a blood lord like Myra, he only needs to release a swarm of bats to circle around the ship, and everyone on the ship will become Myra's most loyal servants. But to be honest, for the powerful blood lord, these
Weak sailors can only become a burden to him.
You have to know that the lives of the blood servant and the master are shared. Once the blood servant is killed, the vampire will also suffer heavy losses. Only novices like Ms. Dabel and daughters of nobles who are not familiar with the world will do this."
"Generosity" in sharing his blood with these handsome but unworthy sailors.
But no matter what, the witch hunting operation in Drustvar has come to an end. As long as the result is good, everything is fine.
