Chapter 8: The Edge of the Vortex
Riding a boat sounds interesting, but it's actually very boring, and after experiencing the initial freshness, only three days later, Cheng Xiaotian felt bored. Fortunately, there were so many adventurers on board that there was nothing to listen to them brag about to pass the time, and one thing piqued his keen interest.
The water elves who occupied Theramore, in order to prevent being caught by Stormwind and the orcs, launched an attack on the orcs first. I have to say that this battle was fought so beautifully that the orc army was completely defenseless and was instantly defeated.
After the battle, the Stormwind fleet, which had received the news halfway, immediately lowered the battle flag and replaced it with a blue flag representing a friendly visit, and the army turned into an envoy group in a blink of an eye. Despite this, when they arrived at Theramore, they were not allowed to go ashore, and they only handed out a letter of state, and hurried back.
The details of the credentials are unknown, but according to the grapevine, Stormwind City recognizes Theramore as an independent country and its legitimate ruler as a water elf, and euphemistically expresses the hope that the Theramore water elf kingdom will send representatives to attend the alliance's alliance ceremony.
In addition, it is all trivial things, listen to it, and forget it later, Cheng Xiaotian fell into boredom again.
The ship sails around the clock, and is expected to reach the other side in a month. The passage to the Black Coast has been sealed, and Theramore is no longer able to dock, and this ship will dock in the goblin city of Ratchet Tooth.
It borders Theramore to the south and leads west to the heart of Kalimdor, making it a perfect landing point for adventurers. The only thing that upsets the Alliance adventurers is that the ship carrying the tribal adventurers will also dock there.
Fortunately, although the two ships are parallel, they are far away, otherwise, it is difficult to guarantee that people on both sides will not carry out long-range bombardment, but there are still many people who are unhappy about this. Every morning, the starboard side of the ship would be crowded with people, shouting at the tribal boat in the distance, regardless of whether they could hear it or not.
Don't doubt the adventurers' ability to curse. According to Cheng Xiaotian's estimate, if these guys spend three hours a day practicing, they will have to spend at least five hours practicing swearing. It's been half a month, and Cheng Xiaotian still can't adapt. I listened to it with a dry mouth and a dry chest like a drum.
"Norbulingka, why are they so swearing?" Cheng Xiaotian leaned on the port side and asked weakly.
Linga grinned and laughed, shaking his head and shaking his head with amusement.
Norbulingka's face flushed slightly, and he snorted, "They...... The level is very average. If it's me......"
Norbulingka's voice grew quieter and quieter, her eyes flickering and she lowered her head, and by the end she was completely inaudible.
"What did you say?" Cheng Xiaotian chased Norbulingka's face and asked, Norbulingka dodged left and right, and finally simply poked his head out to look at the sea.
Cheng Xiaotian was suddenly bored, he wanted to learn how to scold people, but it seemed that there was no fun.
"Come here."
Just as Cheng Xiaotian was about to go back to his room and continue to sleep, Norbulingka shouted, as if he had found something. The two hurriedly crouched on the side of the boat and looked down with Norbulingka's fingers.
I saw it clinging to the side of the ship. There were a few silver shadows swimming rapidly underwater, very fast and agile. Through the twisted surface of the water, these shadows can be seen to be about three meters long, with silver scales all over, the back half resembling a snake, and the front half being human-like.
"Naga Siren!" Linga exclaimed.
As soon as he said this, a shadow under the water turned and swam on its back, staring at the three of them across the water. This is a female Naga with a delicate face with no scales. It's just that his face is pale, and his dark blue eyes are as cold as ice.
"Oh no, our ship is being targeted by Naga!" Norbulingka muttered to herself and took a step back, not daring to make any more eye contact with the Naga in the water.
The ocean ship is targeted by the Naga Siren. It is the most feared thing of the sailors, and once these obedient Naga find that someone has violated the territorial waters, they will attack directly and do not communicate at all.
Speaking of which, Naga were originally Night Elves, and they were also nobles among the Night Elves.
Unlike the normal Night Elves who study the ways of nature. These High Elves, who call themselves Queldore, are fond of magic, and they occupy the Well of Eternity in the center of the ancient continent, absorbing the magical energy of the well water without restraint, and eventually attracting the demonic invasion of the universe. Although the war ended in the victory of the Night Elves, the Well of Eternity was destroyed in the war, and the unimaginable explosion blew the ancient continent apart, becoming the shattered state it is now.
The Endless Sea was thus formed, and the Well of Eternity became a huge whirlpool, spinning in the middle of the Endless Sea for ten thousand years. Queldore, who sank into the sea, had been following their queen, Azara, but instead of going ashore, she somehow became Naga.
The above content is from "The Battle of the Ancients - Queen Eshara's Love of Humans and Demons", Cheng Xiaotian has read this absurd and uninhibited book to understand this period of history. But he just took it as a joke, just kidding, the book said that Queen Aishara was about the same height as himself, and the big demon king was 10,000 meters tall, and this size didn't match......
In any case, these nagas are indeed very powerful, they can perform magic regardless of their profession, and although they have no legs, in the sea, adventurers of the same level are no match for them. Now these few are obviously just reconnaissance troops, and when they recruit a large number of people, the fleet will not escape the catastrophe!
"Give me the bow, you can't let them go!" Linga stared at Naga in the water and stretched out his hand to Cheng Xiaotian.
Cheng Xiaotian didn't say anything, untied his bow and arrows and handed them over.
"Ahh The female Naga, who had been watching them, suddenly let out a sharp strange scream, and with a flap of the snake's tail, she dived into the deep sea in a blink of an eye. Immediately after a series of "poof" sounds, the group of naga all drilled down.
Linga opened his mouth and stammered, but the bowstring didn't have time to open.
"Shall we ...... the news" Linga muttered and pointed to starboard, and as soon as his hand was stretched out, he felt that the hull of the ship began to tilt to the left, and all the adventurers who had been crowded on the starboard side rushed over.
"What's wrong, what's wrong? I seem to hear strange noises. The adventurers rushed over and asked the three men on the port side.
Lin Jia was about to speak, when he suddenly felt a tightening of his wrist and was grabbed by Cheng Xiaotian.
"Ahh I just saw a carp, it's so big! Cheng Xiaotian yelled in an exaggerated tone, and gestured with both hands, looking at his posture, that carp was bigger than this boat!
"I'm going to shoot it with an arrow, so that we can make a big pot of soup, but I didn't expect the thing to suddenly speak, it said......" Cheng Xiaotian is still desperately flickering, and the onlookers are quitting, which is too fake.
"Let's ......" everyone disdained in unison, raised their hands at Cheng Xiaotian, and several of them also stretched out their middle fingers, and then dispersed in a hurry, and continued to go back to starboard to curse.
"Let's go!" Cheng Xiaotian gave the two of them a look, and walked back with a gloomy face.
"My lord, why don't you tell the truth?" Lin Jia strode up to Cheng Xiaotian, grabbed his arm and asked.
Cheng Xiaotian turned his head and glared at him, but for some reason, Linga was glared at by him and involuntarily let go of his hand.
Cheng Xiaotian slowed down his tone a little and said, "These people are all scattered, and knowing the truth will only make them lose their courage." ”
"But......" Linga was still to debate, Cheng Xiaotian ignored him at all, turned around and left.
Norbulingka shook his head at Linga and followed Cheng Xiaotian into the cabin. (To be continued.) )
