Chapter 240: Beware of the old lady's madness

In the days that followed, the elves made their way slowly and carefully in the Twilight Heights, and in the information of Onexia, the leader of the Dragonthroat Clan, Nexus Cruise. The Skullcrusher - and the current owner of the Dragon's Soul, is located in a small camp north of the Twilight Heights.

"Are you sure he won't get out of there?"

To be on the safe side, Kael'thas asks Onexia again.

"I probably won't leave."

Onexia herself was not very sure, but she cocked her fingers at her head, and said:

"It's just that he didn't leave there during the time I stayed here."

This answer gave Kael'thas some peace of mind.

The Black Dragon Princess's exploration of the Twilight Heights lasted several weeks, during which time Nexus Cruise. If the Skullcrusher hadn't left the location, that location would have been his hiding place.

The most important thing is that no matter Ne Cruise. Whether the Skullcrusher is there or not, Kael'thas and their intelligence is limited, so they have to go there first.

The 6 elven thieves brought with them were all excellent explorers, and along the way, Kael'thas and their advance was slow, but they were not in danger, and their arrival was not detected by the orc scouts.

However, the problem of food is a lot more difficult for Kael'thas and Solan Lian, there are only 3 mages here, and naturally no one will ask Mephites to make magic bread, so this task is pressed on Kael'thas and Solan Lian.

Actually, Solan Liane wanted to handle the problem alone, but Kael'thas was embarrassed to let a girl take care of the job, and he felt unkind to do so.

Equality between men and women, both in previous and present lives, is truly realized. The love for the female surname is left in the bones of every man, and except for a few exceptions, the rest of the men can be said to be a pathetic creature.

Sometimes, Kael'thas also thinks that female surnames are so good, and they are always treated preferentially.

Some people may say that the elves are a race of women and men, but Kael'thas never thought so.

In this world, except for the time when the Night Elves and High Elves served the same queen Azhara ten thousand years ago, the rest of the periods were obviously dominated by male surnames.

Whether it is a night elf or a high elf, among the people in the upper echelons, they are mainly male surnames. With a history of tens of thousands of years, there have been countless male elves who have left an indelible light, but there are very few female surnames in this regard.

Speaking of which, the female surnames that have had a profound impact on the elven society are only a handful.

Even in the future, the upper echelons of Quel'Salas are mostly male elves.

If history were to turn back to its original trajectory, the future ruler of Quel'Thalas would also be a man, a ranger named Lotherma.

Sadly, Kael'thas doesn't know that in this world, it is a girl who inherits the name of Lotherma.

"Your Highness, there are no traces of orcs around here, you can spend the night here."

On this day, after a long march in the night, until the light of the moon began to dim, an elven thief came to report.

"Well, thank you."

Kael'thas looked up at the dim sky and thanked the elven thief who couldn't see under his hood, the hardest person in this time was the thief.

It should be close to midnight, during the day, the elven thieves follow the procession, and at night, they only get a few hours of rest and rotate the vigil.

In his previous life, when playing the game, Kael'thas hated the Rogue profession because they always tended to hide in the shadows and attack others.

However, after coming here, thieves turned into a profession that Kael'thas greatly appreciated.

This class may not seem as powerful as the others, but its usefulness is undeniable. The presence of thieves and the absence of thieves changed the pattern of all wars, large and small.

Kael'thas doesn't use much of it now, but it is foreseeable that his use of thieves will always change and improve in future battles.

"Teacher, let's rest here tonight."

Kael'thas looked at the terrain around him and reported to Mephites.

Although it is not a forest, it is a good place to rest because it is sheltered by hills and rocks that vary from high to highland.

"Hmm."

Mephites nodded in agreement.

Kael'thas then gave the order to the elves, took their tents and set up camp.

At night, the flames emit a conspicuous glow, allowing the enemy to detect their presence, so no one prepares a bonfire while camping.

After setting up the tent, Solanlian whispered a spell and began to prepare to make magic bread.

In the Twilight Heights, there is no fire, and the elves can only eat dry food and bread. Of course, during the day, a small area of fire can be used, but don't forget that when using flame to make food, its flavor will remain.

In order to remain as secluded as possible, Kael'thas was very demanding, avoiding most of the main roads and walking from the middle of nowhere. Some locations, such as wet mud soil, are very prone to leaving footprints, and in order to hide them, Kael'thas also learned some hidden magic from Mephites.

The effect was apparently good, and after a few days had passed, no orcs had spotted them.

After setting up camp, the elves, who had been on the road for a day, did not speak, and hurried to sleep.

Except for the three thieves who were in charge of guarding the adjacent area, the rest of them were sleeping soundly.

Time passed the fastest in my sleep, I just turned a few times, and when I opened my eyes again, it was already morning.

Kael'thas stepped out of the tent.

"Your Highness, there's a river over there."

Solanlian, who had already gotten up, pointed him in the way.

"Hmm."

Kael'thas nodded, and took a minute to walk to a clear river to wash up.

Before he could finish washing, Sylvanas came over.

"Good morning."

As soon as Kael'thas, who had just stood up, turned around and found this beautiful woman standing behind him, he was startled.

He hadn't spotted her in the reflection, so Sylvanas must have just come over.

"Good morning, Your Highness."

Sylvanas smiled and then quickly faded away.

"Your hair is a little messy."

She suddenly stepped forward, and the smell of her body made Kael'thas a little distracted, and he didn't have time to dodge.

Sylvanas reached out as if he had no hesitation, moving a few strands of hair on either side of Kael'thas cheek, removing some of the hair that had stuck to his face as he washed.

"That's it."

There was a look of satisfaction in her eyes, and she moved away.

"Thank you."

Kael'thas thanked him, then smiled:

"It seems like the first time I've been done by you, but for some reason, it always feels familiar!"

Sylvanas's movements and expressions just now gave Kael'thas a very familiar sense of trance.

Even the body fragrance she came from was obviously a somewhat unfamiliar fragrance, but Kael'thas felt very warm.

He didn't understand these reasons, and perhaps didn't think about it. The identity of the man in Calsala has never been doubted, including Kael'thas. The great prince of the High Elves, in disguise for hundreds of years, created the image of a man who was deeply ingrained.

And his death also completely deceived the entire Elven Dynasty.

So there was no suspicion at all, and even one day he found out that this familiar feeling came from his brother, but Kael'thas would only explain it by chance.

Unless Sylvanas told him directly.

However, for this matter, Sylvanas prefers to keep it a secret for a while.

That's what Anastarian asks of her, and more importantly, Sylvanas doesn't want Kael'thas to know.

What if he treated me like a brother? 】

She couldn't deny the speculation, if Kael'thas learned her identity, would he see her from the perspective of her relatives?

Sylvanas couldn't accept such an ending.

thus

She wants to be a real girl to get Kael'thas love.

When this love blossoms, she can tell Kael'thas the truth.

She is the truth of his brother

She is the truth of his woman

"Your Highness, I feel like it's going to be a deception."

Sylvanas replied to Kael'thas with this.

"It feels like it's deceiving, too"

Kael'thas nodded, agreeing.

Because if you look at it according to this statement, the dark future that he fears and premonitions may not happen.

Just like the beating of the eyelids, there is a saying that 'the left eye jumps to wealth and the right eye jumps to disaster', but it has never been realized.

"I'll go back first, you hurry up."

Kael'thas spoke to Sylvanas and returned to the camp.

After a few minutes, even Mephites had washed up, and everyone set off again, heading towards the target's orc camp.

Judging by the journey, they will be able to arrive at noon that day.

After several hours of travel, the elves came to a small forest a few hundred meters from the camp and hid.

"Can you disguise it?"

With the corpses of several orcs lying at the elves' feet, Kael'thas asks a thief with an improvised transmitter.

The orcs are not stupid, and this small forest a few hundred meters away has also arranged some orc guards, although the thieves easily killed them. However, these orc posts will use unique signals to keep in touch with the camp every once in a while, and if they don't report for a while, the orc camp will find an anomaly.

"Yes."

Luckily, the thief studied for more than ten minutes and finally settled on the information.

On the way, they once caught an orc and tortured it to reveal some information, including two kinds of warning signals. It seems that the signal here is the same.

"Good, so we can go in."

Kael'thas breathed a sigh of relief and continued.

"But Your Highness, there are so many of us, how can we get over?"

Solan Lian frowned and asked suspiciously.

She didn't foresee anything, and that's a good thing.

"You don't need to be all there."

Kael'thas smiled and shook his head, then explained:

"We just need a few people to go over if it's OK Nick Cruise. The Skullcrusher is inside, and notify the others immediately! ”

"In this way, we don't need to hide too much, we can capture the dragon's soul as quickly as possible."

His plan was the best way to come up with it after a long time, and Kael'thas believed that there was a great chance that this group would use their speed to capture the dragon's soul.

"Is that to let the thieves pass?"

Onexia raised an eyebrow:

"Or me?"

The camp was heavily guarded, and she was sure that these high-class thieves were not as useful as her.

However, Kael'thas has a different answer.

"It's not a thief, and it's not you."

He raised his eyebrows, looked at Onexia with dark blue eyes, and then pointed at himself:

"I'll go with you!"

At the time of Onexia's report, Kael'thas had determined that the black dragon princess was capable of transforming into various races.

And this skill, he also has, and it is more perfect.

"You!?"

Onexia, as well as many other elves, were stunned.

Soon, however, she and a few familiar elves reacted.

"yes, I remember that you little guy used to be a sincere kind!"

Onexia's eyes lit up:

"Could it be that you can become another race too?"

[Kael'thas has shown it before.] 】

Sylvanas recalled the events of the year and couldn't help nodding:

"It seems that His Highness does have this ability."

Kael'thas glanced at Sylvanas in some surprise.

Few people know about his ability, and Sylvanas should not have been exposed to it.

But this is no secret, Kael'thas thought to himself that someone else must have told the girl.

"So, the transformation of Onexia and I into orcs is the most convenient way to approach that camp."

Kael'thas then added.

"I disagree!"

Sylvanas directly refused:

"It's too dangerous."

Several of the other elven thieves nodded their heads.

"Solan Liane, do you see any danger?"

Kael'thas smiled and asked Solanlian.

This astrology has been without warning, and it has also proved that it should be safe.

"No, Your Highness, you can go over."

Sure enough, Solan Lian didn't have the slightest worry and answered directly.

Sylvanas thought it was bad.

[Kael'thas relied too much on this sorcerer.] 】

She thought, then looked at the most powerful old mage here.

"You just let her go with her."

Unexpectedly, Mephites did not refuse the offer, but instead addressed Sylvanas.

The old mage and Sylvanas had known each other for two hundred years, and in this position, unexpectedly refused.

Perhaps for him, it is Kael'thas who gets his workout that is the most important thing.

And the distance of that camp would allow him to ensure Kael'thas safety.

It's only a few hundred meters, and if you sense danger, Mephites can reach it in the blink of an eye.

He felt the situation inside that camp here, and there was no one who could stop him.

"Who is she?"

Kael'thas was a little concerned about what Mephites called 'her'.

"I mean the black dragon."

Mephites glanced at Sylvanas's side, then replied to Kael'thas like this:

"Maybe it's the wrong word."

Mages who are accustomed to reciting spells rarely make mistakes in the use of words, which makes Kael'thas feel a little weird.

But he really didn't find anyone else here, so he could only accept this answer.

After that, Sylvanas did not refuse again, and after warning Onexia with cold eyes, she also asked the 'invisible man' who followed her.

Kael'thas and Onexia turned into two fanged and red-eyed orcs and slowly walked towards the Dragonthroat Clan's camp.

"Your cross-dressing is awesome, little one!"

After a stretch where nothing happened, Onexia relaxed a little and accosted Kael'thas.

"Yours isn't bad either."

Kael'thas had no choice but to answer her with a little nervousness, he was a little curious:

"Generally speaking, the closer you get, the more cautious you be, why do I feel like you're more relaxed?"

"Of course, because I've been here."

Onexia laughed, but the appearance of the orc's ugly and gruff face made Kael'thas lose any of his previous beauty.

"Look, I'm laughing like this, and there are orcs over there staring at me intently."

Onexia hinted with his eyes, and then Kael'thas looked ahead, and sure enough, he saw that the orcs guarding the gate of the camp were looking at Onexia.

It seems that Onexia was a little worried at first that the orcs would suspect her sudden departure.

But after approaching, seeing that those orcs reacted normally also reassured her.

[It seems that this time it is going more smoothly than expected.] 】

With Onexia leading the way, there is not much of a problem in probing intelligence.

[As long as these orcs are not deliberately disguised.] 】

This was Kael'thas's only concern, and he feared that the orcs' expressions were disguised.

However, judging from Onexia's last actions, these orcs should not directly consider them enemies, even if they are confused.

It should be fine

Kael'thas comforted himself, and then made his way to the junction of the camp with Onexia.

"Stop!"

Two orc soldiers guarding the camp blocked their advance with their swords, startling Kael'thas.

[Discovered!? 】

Kael'thas thought reflexively, but although the orc's eyes were unfriendly, they didn't show murderous aura, so he held it down.

"Miss Thea, who is this man who doesn't have many muscles?"

An orc asked.

Kael'thas and Onexia were both a little stunned.

"Ahh

Onexia reacted quickly, wrapped her huge arms around Kael'thas shoulders, and then removed the two orcs' swords away:

"Don't scare him!!"

"Miss Shia's male companion!?"

"That's it!?"

The two orcs stared at Kael'thas with worse eyes.

"Hey, don't stare at him like that!"

"Be careful, old lady, I'm mad!"

Onexia fears that the world will not be in chaos.

She dragged Kael'thas and moved the two orc soldiers out of the way and into the camp.

[What the hell is going on?] 】

The corners of Kael'thas couldn't help but jump - was he ugly?
