"Sasha's XD" brother adds more[110]
(Happy Children's Day to all the babies! In this festival that everyone is entitled to celebrate, treat yourself to some gifts that you can't bear to buy, just treat yourself as a kid.)
"Your Majesty? Your Majesty! Are you okay?"
Daelin heard the call while feeling dizzy.
He opened his eyes blankly and saw Lord Ashvane looking at him with concern, but his body was as hard to move as if it were filled with lead, and waves of pain kept rising.
He groaned in pain, and then stood up with the help of his lord. The swaying deck under his feet represented that he was at sea, but the painful memory in his mind stayed in the desperate situation of his flagship being submerged in the storm.
His last memory image was of a big wave hitting him, and then he fell into darkness.
"Where am I?"
He sat on the chair, took the drink from Lord Ashvane, took a sip to numb the pain, and asked in a dumb voice:
"Where's the fleet? Those pirates. Naga and the ghost ship."
"The fleet you brought out luckily escaped the storm and is now gathering towards the island. Don't worry, Bloodsail Pirates has been defeated by you."
Lord Ashvane seems a little nervous.
He looked at Daelin's expression and said softly:
"But Derek Proudmoore, who betrayed the country, escaped with a pirate fleet, and it is said that he defected to the ambitious Anduin Lothar. They were about to attack Lordaron Kingdom, intending to destroy the orthodox inheritance of mankind.
Do you remember Lordaron Kingdom?
You and King Terenas have been friends for many years. You also promised to marry your daughter to King Terenas's son. Unfortunately, the young princess Jaina was also coerced and betrayed by Prince Derek.
You were almost defeated by this disaster, but you were so strong and you survived."
"Really?"
Daelin It feels a little strange.
This doesn't seem to be the way he treats his son and daughter, but if you think about it carefully, it seems that it is.
Some memories emerged in his mind. His rebellious and ambitious eldest son longed for power and was dissatisfied with the power-sharing model of the four Kul Tiras families.
One stormy night, he launched a shameless rebellion.
The loyal Duke Falrevere led the fleet to rescue and drove the traitor out of Boralus, but Derek's final counterattack killed his wife and his mother.
Ah, Katherine.
As she died in pain in her arms, she begged herself to forgive her unfaithful son.
But how can such an act of rebellion be forgiven?
"The traitor!"
The angry Daelin clenched his fist and smashed it on the table.
This anger affected his injuries and made him cough violently. He drank another glass of wine, and then more memories emerged.
When Stormwind Kingdom was invaded by Green Skins, the king of Lordaeron generously aided their war, but the careerist Anduin Lothar took the opportunity to seize power during the war. He colluded with the archbishop of Holy Light and used Holy Light's fanaticism to incite war.
They formed a large army and are conquering Northern Borderlands.
Fortunately, the black dragons who were also hunted came to support King Terenas at this critical moment. He was also deeply aware of the threat from Lothar, so he sent Tidesages to support the Lordaeron people.
But the traitorous son's rebellion made him extremely angry, so he personally led an army to Plunder Isle to conquer Derek.
Shameless guy colluded with Naga.
No!
Wrong!
Naga of the Deep Sea Empire are clearly long-term allies of the Kul Tiras people. Just because they are not accepted by the famous world, Kul Tiras people cannot promote this precious friendship.
Yes!
Daelin remembered more details.
When Derek used evil magic to cause a storm, it was Naga who risked their lives to pieces and rescued themselves in the storm.
"You remember everything, right?"
Lord Ashvane took a deep breath, held Tidal Holy Crest in his hand, and said softly:
"Your loyal Duke Falrevere is protecting you. You are on his flagship "Devil Shark" at this time. Oh, by the way, your lover Queen Fyasia is leading her Bloodscale Clan to protect you.
Don't worry, we will be sailing back to Kul Tiras soon.
Although the careerist Lothar incited the domestic Waycrest Family to start a rebellion in the Drustvar Mountains, your loyal Ashvane and Stormsong Family will soon be able to put them down!"
Daelin nodded.
His mind was in a mess due to injuries, and various memories were rolling around in his mind, making him urgently need to take a rest.
Yes.
Take a rest in the arms of your lover.
I do have an elf lover, this cannot be faked, I had a tender time with her when I was young and frivolous.
Fuyaxi, the former princess Highborne, was born in the large family of Zin-Azshari. Although she was transformed into Naga by the energy of Well of Eternity in the tragedy of War of the Ancients, she will always appear in the beautiful form of an elf.
To be honest, the Naga form of Fuyaxi is not ugly, at least I like it very much.
As a sailor who loves the sea, Daelin knows that in some places, Naga will be called "sea monsters". They seduce passing sailors with their beauty. However, there are always some love stories between sailors and Naga. After all, Naga is very loyal to love.
I have a Naga lover.
She is also very loyal to herself.
Daelin was supported by Lord Ashvane and lay on the bed. Under the influence of strong alcohol, he quickly fell asleep.
Lord Ashvane, holding the emblem of the tide, stood beside Daelin, looking at the king with a strange and uneasy look. After a moment, the hatch was pushed open, and a tall man wearing the uniform of captain Kul Tiran Navy strode in.
He didn't seem to be very used to the uniform he was wearing. He didn't even button up the formal buttons, and he was very cold overall. His black eyes were even more intimidating.
"He believed it?"
Duke Falrevere asked indifferently, Lord Ashvane nodded and said:
"With the blessing of the ocean tide, the lost King Daelin has returned to Kul Tiras's orthodox faith. We will never let Holy Light's hypocritical hands reach into this country.
But over at Stormsong
Isn't he going to obey?"
"Huh, Stormsong Family, who have worshiped the ocean for generations, will experience such a transformation in every generation. They will turn from doubt to anger, and even resistance and curse, but in the end, they will return to their true faith in the call of the ocean."
Farwynd sneered and said:
"It is only a matter of time before Lord Stormsong will realize what true belonging is. However, is there really no need to go and help Lordaeron people?
I think it will be difficult for them to block Lothar's attack from Lion."
"Lordaeron people don't believe in the tide."
Lord Ashvane said expressionlessly:
"That is the country of the Black Dragon. We only have a cooperative relationship with them. Besides, didn't Naga people pass by? We always have to think about the future, Your Excellency the Duke.
If Lordaeron is eventually occupied by Holy Light, then Kul Tiras, which is alone overseas, will become the One fortress of Tide Zhengxin Base. Under the command of King Daelin, we will fight against the Eastern Continent until we are promoted to Eternal Dream among N'yalotha.
No need to worry!
The destruction of Lordaeron is only part of the plan. Our Lord has a solid plan.
Your next task is very simple, deal with the traitor Derek as soon as possible!
If possible, capture the traitor Jaina. Our Lord is very fond of her talent. She will become "Tideswitch" etched in history and become the next Magna Aegwynn.
Or even the next Queen Azshara.
She is a treasure given to mankind by fate, provided that she takes the right path."
"Oh, speaking of which, here's some bad news."
Duke Falrevere whispered:
"The assassination attempt on your ambitious wife failed. What a pity. But Queen Katherine escaped. The tide sent a message. She was taken away by Jaina under that disgusting light."
"This"
Lord Ashvane felt panicked for a moment.
Queen Katherine is not dead, doesn't this make the "truth" he weaved for King Daelin vulnerable?
"No! She must die! Only her death can maintain His Majesty's anger for a long time."
He said to Farwynd:
"Mobile assassins to assassinate her!"
"Hmm."
The two left the cabin.
In this dark cabin with undulating waves, some kind of power was swaying, wrapping around the sleeping Daelin, causing the weak king to continue to sink in that sweet dream.
Until a certain moment, when the "weaving" of another life was about to be completed, the calls of Jaina and Tandred suddenly sounded in Daelin's dream.
Daelin started to struggle.
He tried hard to open his eyes and escape from this unreal dream and return to reality.
However, those tentacles of darkness were like an octopus, wrapping up the last bit of his conscious spirit layer by layer, and dragging him bit by bit into the dark dream.
Go to sleep.
Go to sleep in Eternal Dream of N'yalotha.
The sun shines in the sky of Azeroth, so that the darkness can only hide under the boundless ocean tide, but there is no need to compromise. When the sun sets, the darkness will escape with the fluctuation of the ocean water, and eventually cover the entire world.
Yes.
Darkness never sleeps.
"What are you looking at? So happy? And the expression on your face is really suspicious!"
Archbishop Nali's voice sounded from Diakum's ears.
She placed a stack of the Lightforged Legion files on the table, stretched her body and lay on Diakum's shoulders, and said:
"I'm really tired of doing these things. Let Twins come back quickly. Not only do I have to help them handle Lightforged Legion's internal affairs, I also have to help them serve Holy Gun.
That's enough!
So, is there anything interesting you can share with me?"
"Yes, I'm watching "The Revenge of the Middle-Aged King" right now."
Diakum dragged Neri into his arms with his backhand, letting her lean comfortably on his shoulders. While extending his spirit into Neri's mind, he said to her:
"This is a script compiled by "director Thousand Tentacle Demon N'Zoth" himself. Let me tell you, it's very exciting."
"Really?"
Neri blinked curiously.
After a moment, Diakum's mysterious vision bloomed in front of her eyes, and the world in her eyes was suddenly divided into two parts. On the left was a brave sailor, with the help of Rexxar, laughing and slaughtering pirates on the deck.
Those Trolls pirates were no match for this guy at all. They were killed by him alone and they were all scurrying around. Those who dared to resist were killed coldly. Those who knelt down and surrendered were spared their lives.
The picture on the right is an abstract interpretation of some kind of dream.
The weak king was wrapped in the tentacles of a black octopus and dragged into the dark sea like a drowning man. He was struggling to wake up, his eyelids kept beating, but in the end he could only be dragged into the boundless sea water.
It seems like two different lives, but these two men appearing in different places are clearly the same person.
"Daelin Proudmoore?"
Neri exclaimed:
"He was split in two? What's going on? Are both of them him? Or is it some kind of strange secret method?"
"It was an oversight."
Dick held Archbishop Nali's waist and explained to her:
"N'Zoth would not have made such a ridiculous mistake, but I once had contact with Daelin. It was to rescue little Jaina who was kidnapped by the devil. I left my Void Power on the anchor pendant of Proudmoore family.
When N'Zoth released Void Magic, that ball of power was activated, causing its spellcasting to be interfered with. It should have completely dragged Daelin's spirit into the dream, but it accidentally split his spirit.
That's the magic of the ancient gods, my dear.
Isn't it simple to create two bodies for a divided spirit?
You can understand that "King" Daelin and "Admiral" Daelin are both real, but only when they merge into one can they become the real Daelin.
You see, the darkness doesn't want to give in, and those bastards keep resisting.
The failure of Quel'Thalas put more pressure on them, and now even N'Zoth has to emerge from hiding and take risks to advance its plan."
"Then what are you waiting for?"
Neri turned to look at Diakum and said:
"Why don't you quickly find N'Zoth's hiding place with Aegwynn, pull it out and strangle it to death? There is also a Titan seal there, and there is also a Everything Unification Field node, right?"
"N'Zoth's problem is rather complicated."
Dick was playing with his favorite little tail and explained:
"The body of N'Zoth is in the seal of Titan, but its spirit is hidden in the old reflection of the Dark Empire. That guy made a deal with Xal'atath a long time ago. Now I doubt whether directly destroying its body can completely annihilate it?
In other words, after no longer being bound by the body, N'Zoth's soul can actually be truly free.
If it really hides in the dream of all things, then I can't find a way to deal with the hidden dangers of Thousand Tentacle Demon except purifying all dreaming creatures in this world.
Do you know why it is called "Thousand Tentacle Demon"?
It's not that it really has a thousand tentacles, but that each of its dream tentacles is connected to a dream. If C'Thun is Stat Monster, then N'Zoth is the real "mechanical monster".
We cannot simply strangle it to death unless we are completely sure of it."
"Yes."
Neri also reacted, she said:
"Supreme Star Soul has been very tired. She always said that she needed to rest. Even after you eliminated Death Rift, she still didn't seem to be fully awake. So, are there N'Zoth's tentacles making trouble in the dream of the world?"
"Well, yes, the weakest ancient god is actually the most difficult to deal with. Precisely because it is weak, it has exerted its advantages almost regardless of the cost for more than 100,000 years. Supreme Star Soul has been sleeping in Waking Dream of N'Zoth.
There are also some very troublesome parasites that take root in dreams."
Vigilant shook his head and said:
"So, we must be cautious when dealing with N'Zoth. We must completely destroy it in both reality and dream dimensions. This difficulty is much more complicated than dealing with Yogg-Saron or G'huun.
As for Daelin
Look at how happy the "Admiral" is. He has even started to pick his own crew among pirates to set sail. I'm sure he hasn't been this happy for many years.
The position of king made him exhausted mentally and physically.
So, let's let him be happy for a while. Anyway, as long as Jaina is not involved in this matter, I think there is no power in the world that can kill this good man who fights the storm."
Neri glanced at "Admiral" Daelin and laughed wildly on that pirate ship.
Indeed, even if you are just watching, you can feel his freedom and wildness without any restraint. This state must be happy.
But after a moment, the Archbishop whispered:
"Am I wrong? You don't seem to be planning to deal with the remaining two Old God and the "artificial ancient god" in the near future?"
"No, your perception is very accurate. That's what I really think."
Facing the person he trusted the most, Diakum did not hide anything. He said softly:
"My current relationship with Void Domain is okay. Killing the Ancient God at this time will be judged as harming the interests of the Void. We can't use weapons when the relationship is good. But don't worry, Xal'atath has been deliberately planning things. She wants to see the relationship between me and the Void get worse.
She will fulfill her wish.
You know, taking advantage of a bad relationship to do all the things you should and shouldn't do in one go is what a wise man does."
"You mean, wait until Overmind wakes up?"
Neri asked in a low voice.
Diakum nodded and said:
"Yes, Xal'atath is planning a conspiracy, and I am waiting for Overmind to wake up. The angry Anveena has gone to Northrend, Shadow Hunters is also active, the insect swarm is about to be complete, and the real Swarm Mind is about to be activated.
Xal'atath I don't understand.
She thought she had the initiative and could stumbling upon me at will.
But time is on my side.
She thought she would find strong support because my "true face" was exposed, but in my eyes, Void Lord's friendship is really not that valuable.
We were not friends from the beginning, so why force ourselves to be friends with them?"
He nibbled hard on Neri's cheek, hugged his rumored girlfriend in Exodar's navigation station, enjoying the rare peace, and said:
"So, let's continue watching "The Revenge of the Middle-aged King". I guess Daelin will definitely give us a wonderful counterattack."
At the same time, on the coastline of Kalimdor, the "admiral" who had just held the steering wheel of the pirate ship suddenly sneezed.
He looked around suspiciously, always feeling like something was staring at him.
But when the ship's steering wheel turned, that innate desire made him focus on steering the ship away from the coast.
Behind the admiral, the trembling pirates were hoisting the killed guys with ropes. These "rebels" would be hung on the mast for three full days to deter other guys on the ship who were ready to make a move.
"Captain. Uh, no, Lord Admiral! This is the best hat you can find on the ship."
A Trolls pirate with his teeth knocked out tremblingly handed a black hat to the admiral. The latter glanced at it, then looked at the black hat, and cursed:
"Horse riding! Why is it a pirate hat? Are you planning to make me a pirate?"
"But there are no other good hats on board."
The aggrieved Trolls pirate wiped his weak tears and begged:
"Just let us go, we are just newbies on board, we haven't had time to do anything bad yet! And your behavior is much better than those noisy pirate captains. In my opinion, you are the most powerful pirate captain on this sea!"
This hat suits you very well.
Its former owner was our previous captain, a legendary pirate who escaped from Daelin Proudmoore several times. Unfortunately, he died on the coast of Echo Isles not long ago.
A strange Trolls was newly moved there, it is very fierce, and it is fighting with Naga."
"Oh? Fighting Naga? Interesting."
The admiral took the hat.
He glanced at the pirate emblem on it with some disgust. He hated this thing, so he picked off the luxurious bloody skull emblem and threw it into the sea water, and then put the black captain's hat on his head.
"You lead the way!"
He kicked the weak Trolls pirate and cursed:
"Let's go to Echo Isles to get some supplies first, and then go to Northern Borderlands. I have a grudge against Naga, and I won't stay overnight for revenge!"
