"Here!"

When Diakum left the tavern, he reached out and threw a pile of Goblin Cartel's gold cards to Black Dragon Princess. He said:

"These are used to invite your father's Goblin servants to smelt a large amount of Elementium Steel for us. Is it enough?"

"Well, that's enough."

Onyxia looked at Vigilant with strange eyes, and she whispered:

"But how did you get so much money just by going in and having a drink with the big boss Goblin? Did you knock people unconscious and kidnap them for ransom? Or did you make some shady deals? I just heard a Goblin drunkard say that Steamwheedle Prince has never been a womanizer."

"Listen to what you said, is this something that Warrior of Light can do? And Lightforging doesn't seem to have cleaned up the yellow waste in your mind!"

He glared at Onyxia and said:

"It's just an investment for Light Weaver Faction. After that, a sum of money will be deposited into our account at Goblin Bank every month. Oh, speaking of this, remember to go to Booty Coast to open two public accounts for our religious group and war group, and let Noggenfogger do the accounting audit.

I don't want to cause any religious scandal and have other Naaru Faction laugh at us."

"Didn't Steamwheedle Prince just decide to invest in Lothar? Why did he suddenly come to invest heavily in our war group?"

Black Dragon Princess's head is a little dizzy.

She said doubtfully:

"No matter how rich it is, it can't withstand such a disaster, right?"

"Of course you, a big female dragon who only piles wealth in the dragon's nest after grabbing it, don't understand. Goblin's business thinking can't be explained clearly in a few sentences. Steamwheedle is not afraid of spending money, it is only afraid that its huge wealth cannot be circulated."

Vigilant was not in the mood to explain to Onyxia the operating logic of Goblin's business. He waved his hand and said:

"In short, our business does not have to worry about funding problems for the time being. That Goblin Trade Prince is a very powerful guy. To be honest, he thinks Goblin is a bit unqualified. If he is a Ethereal, all these Consortiums are probably in his pocket.

Neri is back?

We are about to leave. We will pick up Nubodon at Kul Tiras at midnight today, and we must rush back to Stormwind before early tomorrow morning."

"Oh, the Archbishop went back Exodar twenty minutes ago."

Black Dragon Princess curled his lips and said:

"As expected, she lost all her money, but she was in a good mood this time. It is said that she drew a "hidden Booty Bay object" while playing a lottery game, but I don't think the cunning Goblin people will take out real treasures and put them in the casino.

So I suspect that your outgoing girlfriend may have been deceived.

You'd better go take a look."

A few minutes later, when Diakum and Onyxia returned to the cabin of Exodar, which was hovering in the stratosphere, they saw an unknown High Elf leaning against the window and admiring himself in a blue "Robe of Shifting Sands".

Vigilant was embarrassed for a moment, then stepped forward and said:

"So, you drew "Deceiver's Orb" in the Goblin casino? Hiss, in a sense, this thing is really a treasure."

"How's it going? Is my elf form pretty?"

Neri, who used Deceiver's Orb to complete the illusion disguise, specially made a seductive expression of High Elf. However, because Neri has not seen many High Elfs, the face she created using Deceiver's Orb is actually just a mixture of Windrunner family's facial features.

This made Diakum sigh. As she entered the room, she glanced at her raised buttocks and said regretfully:

"No tail."

"Hey, let's try what it feels like without a tail first."

"But it's useless. My Eye of Truth can see through illusions, but your catwalking on tiptoes is so fun."

"Won't you cover up your damn Eye of Truth? You Holy Light piece of wood! You have no interest at all. Come into the house with me."

Exodar Ship also flies very fast in the atmosphere, but because it is the first time to fly on Azeroth, the spacecraft needs to record some necessary flight parameters, so it uses low power to fly.

Almost completely stuck, we arrived at Boralus, the capital city of Kul Tiras country Human King, at midnight.

Nubodon received the news in advance and waited on a hillside outside the harbor. Soon a Landing Pod in optical camouflage landed near the hillside. Diakum and Maraad came to personally greet the team member who was the "miracle doctor" of Kul Tiras.

We haven't seen each other for a long time. Nubodon feels a lot haggard. It seems that Kul Tiras's Demon Plague Infection is in serious condition.

"Their local Druid can barely control the speed of Flesh Degradation, but many civilians have been tortured to accept the bewitchment of Fel, and those Doom Prophets are everywhere in the entire Kul Tiras.

The dark Drustvar Mountains is their base camp."

Nubodon sighed and said:

"Even though Prince Derek has invited several Forest Sprite Sage to arrive at Boralus and start healing, the number of humans who have surrendered to the devil is still quite exaggerated. What's more terrible is that this trend has even spread to Kul Tiras's navy.

Just a few days ago, a Naval Task Force disappeared after leaving Hong Kong.

According to Tidesages's report, the commander of that fleet, Duke Falrevere, was a demon believer. They killed Tidesages in the fleet and took advantage of the chaos to escape from the island country. It is said that at the last observation, those guys had already risen Bloody Pirate Flag.

King Daelin was furious.

This is the first time Kul Tiran Navy has experienced such a large-scale defection in recent decades, and he regards it as a shame."

"In other words, once the demons invade, the island country Kul Tiras will also be threatened?"

Maraad said seriously:

"With the strongest navy, they may not be able to spare the power to support Eastern Kingdoms?"

"Still supporting?"

Nubodon grimaced and sighed:

"It is a great blessing that Kul Tiras himself can stabilize himself in the inevitable chaos. The demons are obviously well prepared. They will definitely isolate the Human King countries so that they can attack them one by one.

And for some unknown reason, the dead of Kul Tiras are resurrecting abnormally recently.

Some people have even seen an entire Undead composed of Ghost Fleet overseas.

I don't know what the situation is like at Eastern Kingdoms, but based on what I saw at Kul Tiras during this period, I think the situation they will face next will be very, very bad, even worse than when we faced the devil in Shattrath City and War Horde.

From a pessimistic point of view, even if this maritime kingdom survives this chaos, it will be difficult for them to regain their past glory in a short period of time."

"Let's go back to the spaceship first."

Diakum patted Nubodon on the shoulder and said:

"You two go back first. I will do some reconnaissance here. Don't worry about me. Let the Exodar spacecraft continue to move towards the Stormwind Kingdom. I will follow you after I complete the reconnaissance."

"Okay, please be safe, Saint."

Nubodon reminded:

"I suspect that Kul Tiras is hiding a Dreadlord. Well, there is a high probability that it will not dare to appear in front of you."

"It's right here! It's so bold, as if it's deliberately provoking me, "Light Butcher"."

Diakum squinted his eyes, stared at Port of Boralus in the darkness, and said:

"I can smell that sulfurous smell from so far away. Leave it to me. You can go back and rest."

After saying that, Diakum summoned his own Kahe Wanderer, pulled up the reins and disappeared into the shadows.

After several consecutive shadow water splashes, he arrived at King's Castle in Port of Boralus without alerting anyone. This place is called "Proudmoore Fortress" and is the palace area of Admiral Daelin.

However, as a good man who fights against storms all year round, Daelin has a different style from other human kings.

He is more like a general than a king.

He likes to be called this.

Diakum jumped off his "Big Monster Fish" mount, and did not even need to actively call the shadows. The shadows at night actively surrounded the noble Devourer of Worlds in a "dog-licking posture", covering his breath, allowing him to step into the fortress of King Daelin like an invisible man.

Because Prince Derek has invited Forest Sprite Sage to come to Kul Tiras, so at least Magic Plague did not appear in the king's fortress. Although those Warrior who were severely infected recovered their health, they could not get rid of the weight loss and rickets caused by Magic Plague's Flesh Degradation.

To put it more harshly, this is already the standard for disabled people.

However, these Warriors patrolled the castle very responsibly. They knew that the country was not peaceful recently, so they were very attentive. Diakum also came to King Daelin's fortress for the first time, but he followed the smell of sulfur and soon came to an area behind the palace.

In a small palace that was tidied with a girlish touch, Daelin's favorite little daughter Jaina·Proudmoore was hiding on the bed with a frightened look on her face. This three-year-old girl seemed to have sensed some approaching danger.

Her blue eyes were wide open, and she was screaming sadly for her powerful father to protect her.

But amid the little girl's frightened scream, the pink door dotted with beautiful shells was kicked open by Diakum.

As Saint stepped into it, Holy Spirit Form opened, Light Wings flew away, and Golden Little Angels each held a sharp sword in their hands and shouted loudly around the Holy Spirit. Ashbringer, which was broken but still maintained the posture of the holy blade, jumped into the palm of his hand, and golden holy flames jumped back and forth between the broken blades.

"You knew I was coming but you didn't run away quickly and stayed here waiting to die?"

Diakum stared at the little Jaina huddled on the bedside, screaming in terror.

His Eye of Truth reflected a pretentious female Dreadlord. The latter knew that its disguise could not be hidden from "Light Butcher", but it was emboldened and even took the initiative to provoke the devil in its true appearance.

Dreadlord is not an ordinary demon, and Vigilant's "Ashbringer" power has no effect on them.

In other words, they will indeed be ground up by Ashbringer and filled with the soul of Fel, but they will be reborn in their real "hometown" and die? Oh, for dead creatures, death is like going home.

Who is afraid of going home?

"Who are you! Stay away from my daughter, you bitch!"

Daelin Proudmoore's roar sounded behind Diakum. The king came in a hurry. This was evident from the image of his naked body wearing only a pair of Kul Tiras traditional boxer briefs.

But he held a handful of General's Saber in one hand and a handful of Dwarven Gunblade in the other hand, and his eyes were blazing with fire aimed at the villain who was planning to harm his daughter!

Queen Katherine, who rushed over after him, was only wearing pajamas, holding a Rose Rapier in his hand, and also holding a musket in the other hand.

This couple is simply stunning.

You all have three kids!

And why are you still thinking about having a baby after recovering from a serious illness? The relationship between husband and wife is so good? It is really enviable.

"So, how did you become parents?"

Diakum ignored the gun aimed behind him. He held the holy blade and walked towards the screaming Jaina in front of him, and said in a cold voice:

"You don't even know that your daughter was betrayed by a demon?"

"Stop!"

Daelin did not dare to shoot at this distance, for fear of accidentally injuring his little daughter, so he could only rush forward with Command Dagger, but the next second Holy Light was hit by the Holy Spirit and was restrained in place, along with "Jaina".

Under the illumination of Sun Herald's Blinding Light, this legendary demon finally couldn't bear it anymore, and her disguise was shattered.

As Daelin and the queen watched in horror, their well-behaved little daughter transformed into a pale-faced Dreadlord with bat wings on her back!

"No, Dad, Mom! What kind of evil magic is this? Help me!"

Dreadlord, who was bound in place by Holy Light, was still making Jaina sounds. She shouted in horror, as if this was really Diakum's evil method.

Vigilant Of course I know what this guy is planning to do by performing so hard, but it's a pity that he always has only one attitude towards the devil.

"Look at your classic Sinfall style armor. If I remember correctly, your name is Mel'tranix?"

Diakum let the holy flame wrap around Ashbringer, and he whispered to the female Nathrezim who was grinning at him:

"Say hello to your master for me, and don't be too proud. I will find a way to purify you permanently. It won't take long!"

"Buzz"

The holy blade fell, and under the purification of the demigod-level Holy Light, Dreadlord screamed and turned into a ball of scorching ashes flying in the childlike room. When the corroded armor fell on little Jaina's bed, Diakum waved away Holy Light's chains.

When he turned around, the angry Daelin stepped forward and grabbed his collar. The king's eyes were full of bloodshot eyes and roared:

"Even if it is really a demon, you should interrogate it! My daughter. Oh my god, my little Jaina!"

"It's useless. Dreadlord doesn't say a word of truth. As long as you open your mouth to interrogate, you will fall into their trap, which will most likely lead you to a place where you will definitely be killed. Their plans have always been vicious and serial."

Dick stared at the angry admiral and said:

"I know you can't listen now, but your daughter can still be saved! The prerequisite is that you calm down. Dreadlord will not kill a spellcaster with terrifying talents so easily. Even if she is still very young, she is still very valuable.

Think about it, when was your daughter transferred?"

"This is me."

Under the comfort of Mental Induction, Daelin and Queen Katherine quickly calmed down.

The surrounding guards were dispersed by Diakum with whispers, and the queen quickly remembered that a week ago she took her daughter out of the city to visit the local Druid leader Great Thornsayer, and that her daughter left her for a while.

"It must have been that time! In Arom's Stand, that was when the One left my sight during this period of Jaina."

Queen Katherine covered her heart in pain, she blamed herself very much.

"Could it be those Thornspeaker Witch hidden in the darkness of Drustvar?"

Daelin clenched his fists, his face full of killing intent.

"Wait a moment."

Diakum took out the Arcanite Crystal stone and called out:

"Chromie, come to me, I need your help with something."

"Huh? I haven't completely mastered time yet."

"Little Jaina·Proudmoore has been replaced by Dreadlord. I want to find her immediately."

"Wow! So exciting? Wait a minute, I'll be right over! I'll give you my full assistance."

As Bronze Dragons yelled, a moment later, she appeared in front of Daelin couple in the vortex of time.

Chromie, who was in the form of a small dwarf, asked Queen Katherine to cooperate, and then activated time retrieval and disappeared from the place with Queen Katherine. A few minutes later, they jumped out again.

"It was indeed that day! Little Jaina was replaced by Dreadlord when Arom's Stand was playing, but she was taken away from Azeroth by Dreadlord's accomplices. It's hard to say which demon world she ended up in now."

Chromie's expression was quite serious, she said:

"It's not easy to deal with now. Even with the blessing of Star Soul Lord, my time retrieval still cannot escape the scope of this world."

"My daughter was taken to a world of demons?"

Daelin and his wife almost collapsed when they heard the news.

If Jaina was still somewhere in this world, he would try his best to save his daughter, but now he is outside the world, and no matter how powerful his battleship is, he cannot sail across the star sea.

Dick is also a little worried. No matter how talented Jaina is, he is only three years old now. Once he is taken into Twisting Nether, he may soon turn into a half-demon.

The problem is that I can't find it now.

"She should have Proudmoore family's magic pendant on her body?"

"Time Detective" Chromie tilted his head and said:

"It is said that the pendant is the same as Proudmoore family's Blood Connection, so if she still carries it with her, she might be able to find some clues."

"Yes. My daughter's pendant never leaves her body!"

Daelin took off his silver anchor pendant from his neck and handed it to Diakum. He no longer cares who Diakum is, he just wants to find his daughter.

At least make sure she's safe.

"Bloodline Connection, I have to use Curse of Flesh's secret method."

Diakum looked at the pendant in his hand, took a few steps back and called the shadow to join Voidform, and used the blood connection to search for the whereabouts of Jaina through the pendant. After a few seconds, he felt the sensation.

"Dad, Mom? Where are you?"

Little Jaina's horrified shouts rang out from the pendant, as if they were in another distant world.

Queen Katherine was about to pounce but was stopped by Daelin. Although the king was not a spell caster, he had a High Elf Grand Magus lover and knew that Diakum like this Voidform in front of him was very dangerous to mortals.

"Don't worry, little girl, I'm with your parents."

Dick stroked the pendant and whispered:

"They are looking for you, they are worried about you, tell me, where are you now?"

"I'm in a weird place!"

Jaina's faint voice replied:

"Those demons captured me, and they wanted to take me to their Burning Legion. I also heard a bad guy demon say that he wanted to train me into the most powerful demon mage, but they were suddenly swallowed up by a burst of darkness, and then a strange person took me to the broken world where it was.

It told me that this place is very, very far away from Azeroth, and asked me to wait patiently for the opportunity and then send me back."

"Who was the person who saved you?"

Dick blinked and asked:

"Is it a Ethereal?"

"Yes, it said it was Ethereal, it said its name was "Nether-Stalker"."

Little Jaina replied:

"But I don't know if I can trust it. I'm so scared. There is no light in this place, it's all shadow. It asked me to learn to control those powers, but I can't."

"You can do it! You are the most powerful spell caster in Azeroth, and you have a very terrifying talent."

Diakum was relieved and comforted:

"Nether-Stalker is a good person. You can trust it. Please tell it that Azeroth is about to give birth to a group of "Void Elf". They need the guidance and leadership of the seniors who control Entropic Energy."

If it is interested, just say, Light Weaver is waiting for it in this world and invite it to come and meet.

It will take you back on its way, little girl."

"What if it doesn't want to?"

Jaina was a little worried, she said:

"Nether-Stalker is so elusive that I'm worried that I won't be able to convince it."

"It doesn't matter, it will come to the appointment."

As Eyes of the Void on the shoulders closed together, Light Weaver sent a message containing "Void Invitation":

"Because Light Weaver is also a "Devourer of Worlds", Light Weaver and Ethereal have the same enemy, and both parties can cooperate! Be patient, little Jaina, you will be sent home by Nether-Stalker soon.

Your parents are still waiting for you, so don't let them worry, good kids, don't play with the "bad friends" in the dark."
