Archsteward Shanennox slowly made his way to the Queen's dining room with some papers, ready to report to their Queen Anne on the preparations for a full-scale offensive against the entire northern continent in the coming year after the fall of Akmund.

Every day, and only at this time of dinner, it has the opportunity to report to Her Majesty about some things in the Kingdom of Flames, and at other times, little Anne is either sleeping lazily and refusing to be disturbed by anyone; Either they play vanished, and at that point, no one would know where their queen would go......

Now, Lana, the Queen's personal maid and female officer, was setting up delicate cutlery at the table, and Shane Knox couldn't help but nod. If you look at it this way, it's just the right time, and you just need to wait a little longer, and their Majesty will appear, right? Then, as she ate, she listened to its chatter, which was about to become a common practice in the Flame Kingdom.

"Lana, why do you only prepare one dinner? That one...... What about the little human girl named Vanessa? ”

After looking patiently for a moment, Shane Knox couldn't help but be a little surprised when it saw the lady-in-waiting, Lana, who had only set up a cutlery and a dinner. It stands to reason that at the usual meals, didn't Her Majesty always have dinner with the little girl she had rescued? How...... Just put one out today?

"After Sister Vanessa received the shadow power given by Her Majesty the Queen, she will not control it at all!"

So, she was sent to Quel'Thalas to learn the knowledge of the Shadows and the techniques of the Assassins from a master of the High Elves. It is said that there will be some Ranger training involved, and I don't know much about these things...... Anyway, Her Majesty said that Sister Vanessa will definitely not be able to come back within three or five years. ”

Lana also felt a little gloomy about little Vanessa's departure, she finally had a friend to talk to, but unfortunately, Vanessa looked gloomy all day.

Especially after she gained the power of the shadow, her whole person became even more terrifying!

Lana doesn't know if the shadow knowledge studied by the High Elves can make her transform back, I hope so, right?

According to the resident ambassador of the High Elf Kingdom, their High Elves had already begun to study it as early as the end of the Second Orc War, and after so many years, they had gained a lot, and they had a more detailed understanding of the power of shadows, and there was no problem at all in teaching a little human girl.

It's just that...... Her Majesty was really messed up at that time!

How could she so casually forcibly stuff that terrible seed of power into a little girl's body? That kind of pure dark power, just looking at it, Lana feels terrifying!

"Oh...... Shadows......"

Shanknox nodded, and asked no more. For a little human girl who has nothing to do with the Flame Kingdom, it doesn't bother to worry about it, it's just a casual question.

However, as for the power of the Shadows, although they have not studied the fire elemental, they can be said to be the first in the world to come into contact with this power in Azeroth. You must know that back then, tens of thousands of years ago, their four elemental legions, but they had served under the command of the ancient gods, and they were no strangers to this kind of power.

Who are the old gods? They are the evil seeds that the Void Lord (Shadow) has splintered from, and the last thing they lack is that distorted shadow power.

Shahnnox was quite surprised at the beginning that Her Majesty also controlled the power of shadows, but after thinking about it carefully, he was relieved.

Who is their Queen Anne? That's the number one super genius in the world of Azeroth, the mortal existence of the Flame Goddess, shouldn't it be normal to know everything?

After thinking for a while, Shane Knox stood at the Queen's table with half-squinted eyes, quietly waiting for their Majesty to return, and when it was time for his daily report.

……

In a wide street in the bio of the City of Fire, under the horrified gaze of some scattered tourists or dwarves, humans and High Elves of the other three races, the three daggers of the two trolls smeared with all kinds of poison stabbed Anne in the neck and back of the waist.

It's done?

It's done!!

The two trolls looked at each other in ecstasy after attacking. From the moment just now, from the slightest sense of stagnation when the dagger entered the human body, they could clearly feel that it was definitely the feeling when the weapon entered the human body, and there would be no mistake.

They have killed countless people, and as veteran assassins of Ravenhold Manor, they are definitely no strangers to this kind of touch!

They never expected that this mission would go so smoothly, it was a bit incredible!

Such a powerful flame mage was planted under the hands of the two of them like this? This makes the series of plans they originally prepared useless, and this contrast is really a bit big!

However, it's normal to think about it carefully, this little girl, no matter how powerful she is, is just an unsuspecting innocent little girl, look at it, she doesn't go out with a guard, it's really unreasonable for her not to die!

After the two thieves looked at each other, they suddenly pulled out their daggers from each other's bodies, ready to avoid the blood splattering, and then turned around and left invisibly as soon as possible, leaving this dangerous city in the fastest time!

After all, this is the core territory of the Flame Kingdom, and there are countless armies and powerhouses! Even those powerful fire elemental lifeforms can be described in tens of thousands. Now, after they have done such a great thing, they will not have to run again, and they will probably not have to run again for a while, and then they will be burned to ashes by the angry fire elementals!

Odd? That's not right!

The two troll thieves who were just about to forcibly sneak into the shadows to escape the scene were surprised to find that the little girl, she was just standing there in a daze, and the three wounds on her body did not even spurt the slightest blood? Could it be that the other party is not actually human? And just a fire elemental life in the skin of a human?

However, the information they obtained from Ravenhold showed that the other party was indeed a little human girl! What's going on here? Or, what's weird about the other person's body?

If that's the case, I'm afraid, the two attacks they just made weren't too deadly, so why don't you go up and make up for a few more swords? Or would it be safer to cut off her head directly?

"Not good! This one is nothing more than an arcane mirror image, fooled! ”

Just as the two trolls were about to mend the knife again and cut off the head of the assassin target, they suddenly realized that something was wrong with the little girl's body! Little by little, she began to disintegrate and turn into blue arcane dust, and eventually quickly dissipated into the air, leaving nothing behind!

It turned out that what they had just attacked was nothing more than the arcane mirror image cast by the little girl, and it was an unusually real mirror entity, which made the two trolls almost think that they had just easily succeeded in it!

However, what they were more puzzled about was that just now, the two of them didn't see the slightest spell casting action and omen from the little girl...... So, how did she complete the spell cast and shift locations in an instant? It's incredible! And, most importantly: where is her essence now?

When they saw the mirror image dissipate, the two troll assassins began to scan around, up and down, left and right, with eager eyes, trying to find clues to their targets. They also sighed in their hearts at the same time, sure enough, the strength of the other party and the intelligence should be the same, this kind of powerful existence is not something that the two of them can easily get. The generous first kill bonus is not something that the two of them can easily get.

So, now, that little girl, that Queen of Flames, where the hell is she?

Not only did the two trolls start to look around, but even the goblins over there and the few humans who had been pretending to be eating began to scan around with their grim gaze.

There is not much time left for them, they must kill the other party's Fire Queen before the fire elementals can react, and then leave the city as fast as they can!

"There are assassins!!

As Ravenhold's Assassin Gate scrambled to search for the vanished little girl, the people around him, who were still in shock, finally came to their senses at the sound of an exclamation from a human or a dwarf.

In the next moment, those who had no force screamed and scattered, and fled desperately.

A handful of High Elf mages were preparing to cast spells, while others were dwarves or human nobles who were strong enough to be a little strong, and they drew their weapons, intending to give the trolls who were trying to assassinate their Flame Alliance leaders a little color!

Unfortunately, before they could launch an attack on the two trolls, they were smashed on their heads by the surrounding assassin accomplices with various props, just like the three old John before, and they were all fainted to the ground by the sticks without a sound.

This kind of stuffy stick was more popular with these Assassins than direct killing.

Because of this, not only can a person easily lose all the strength to resist, but also do not have to worry about the death counterattack after the other party is attacked by a fatal attack.

Besides, in order to ensure the absolute success of the mission this time, those weapons were smeared with all kinds of precious poisons, those things that were comparable to gold, or even more expensive, and they didn't want to waste them on these little miscellaneous fish.

It turned out that there were more than a dozen assassins hidden in this vicinity!

These are still exposed, but what if you count those who are not exposed and are still sneaking around? Now, after seeing another incident, for the sake of their own lives, no one dared to stay here to watch the battle, and they began to disperse in a hurry, shouting loudly in horror and fleeing from here.

"Hurry up! Find her as fast as you can! Otherwise, we'll just retreat! ”

At this time, the two goblins in front of the stall finally stopped pretending, and directly kicked the stall open, shouting loudly. Now, the people here are almost running away, and they continue to pretend to be here, and there is no point in them anymore!

As a large group of Ravenhold Assassins drew their weapons and tried to find the location of their assassination target, little Anne finally couldn't help but emerge on her own.

If she doesn't come out again, she will look for these people all day, and they may not be able to find her! Besides, she wasn't afraid of them, so why should she continue to hide? That's so boring, isn't it fun?

"Hey, I say, you guys...... Is this looking for me? ”

With a crisp and delicate voice, little Anne's figure began to appear on the lamppost of a huge flaming street lamp, and she sat there with a big grin, dangling her two little feet, and looking mischievously at the killers below who were trying to find her.

They actually want to assassinate themselves? Anne thought they were a little too naïve!

In fact, a long time ago, not only Anne found out by herself, but even her little bear Tiebs also reported the location of these people one by one, except for the twenty or so people below, in the surrounding houses, there are also those sneaking around, at least there are the same number! These people have really put a lot of effort into assassinating themselves, look at it! There were nearly fifty Assassins.

So, just now, little Anne deliberately walked into their encirclement.

Since people have made such a big formation, wouldn't it be a pity if she didn't go up and play? Anyway, she has more skills to save her life, whether it is all kinds of shields, or flash teleportation to escape, or time gems and the like, she has too many means to count, how can she still be afraid of them? This is completely non-existent!

If you really provoke her, just throw Tiebs the bear down, and they will all be finished, right? If they don't run, Tiebs will only need three or two clicks to clean them up!

"She's there! Attack with all your might! ”

After Anne spoke and revealed herself, a human man who appeared to be the leader of the Ravenhold assassins hurriedly shouted a fierce word. Then, in the next instant, their various ranged attacks were coming towards little Annie, who was sitting on the lamppost......

Knife fan!

Countless small flying knives quenched with various poisons sped towards Annie's position.

Poison Blade!

Other Assassins also began to throw their poison-hardening primary weapons directly at Anne above the stone pillar.

They just wanted to force her down, and then launch a deadly attack at close quarters, but, to their surprise, these attacks all hit?

It's a pity that before they had time to be happy, the figure of the other party began to slowly decompose, and also turned into bursts of arcane dust, and quickly dissipated into the air.

Damn it! It's still a mirror?!

The thieves began to lament in their hearts, sure enough, the assassination of the master or something, the most annoying...... Once they can't kill with one blow, and let these mages be prepared, they have countless bizarre countermeasures or ways to escape!

"Aha! Actually, I'm here! ”

An Anne appeared on the other side of the street, but unfortunately, as soon as she finished speaking, in the seemingly empty street behind her, an assassin in the shadows suddenly burst out, and then, his vicious blade, swept directly towards Anne's thin white and pink neck.

It's a pity that after this Anne was beheaded, there was still no blood, and it also turned into a piece of dissipated dust. This is still just an arcane mirror image of Annie......

"Aha! Fooled, right? Actually, I'm here! ”

Another Anne appeared on the balcony railing of a house, and she sat mischievously on the railing, also dangling her two little feet.

Then, in the next instant, a Hidden Arrow fired from the side, piercing her head directly from one side of her temple, once again turning her into arcane dust.

"Hey! I am here! ”

"I'm real, I'm here!"

"Don't believe her, they're all fake, I'm real!"

"They're all talking nonsense! They're all fake, I'm the real one! ”

"Mud Song Kai! I'm real! ”

"Nope! I am! ”

More than a dozen identical little annes appeared, all of whom stunned the Assassins......

……

"Whew! Actually, we're all fake! ”

"Cut! Actually, I'm really fake, but the one standing under the door over there, she's real! ”

"Traitor! How dare you tell the enemy? ”

"You're a traitor! People are good children, so they don't lie! ”

"Don't take their word for it, in fact, I'm the real thing!"

……

In the next moment, on the rooftops, under the eaves, in the house, outside the window, on the street, in the alley, on the street lamp, in front of the stall, etc., all kinds of places were standing, sitting, or lying, or lying on their stomachs, and countless little annes, all of them looked exactly the same, vivid, and looked dense, which made Ravenhold's assassin door gasp!

Now, in that playful tone, with bad intentions, with those evil smiles of theirs, they looked at the Assassins who were surrounded by them. At the same time, they were chattering and arguing, trying to prove to the Assassins that they were real, or that one of them was fake......

"Well, then, uncles, guess who of us is the real one? If you guess correctly, there will be a reward! ”

One of them, little Anne, walked up to the human assassin who seemed to be the leader, tilted her head and said to him playfully.

The human assassin looked at the little girl standing in front of him, then turned his head to look at Zhou's, swallowed hard, but didn't dare to make a move.

These little girls, all of them are exactly the same, whether it is expression, breath, or demeanor, they are all the same as real people, he really can't tell which one is real, or, all fake?

"If you guess wrong, there may be a penalty!"

Another little Anne grabbed her teddy bear, walked up to him, and squeezed away the little Anne who had just spoken, causing the little Anne to glare at her angrily.

"Otherwise, let's let each of them guess once, if they guess correctly, they can go, if they guess wrong......"

Another little Anne came out with Tibbs the bear in her arms, and she leaned next to the two little Annes in front of her, stretched out her hands, and wrapped her shoulders around the necks of the two little Annes.

"If you guess wrong, throw it into the lava and drown him!"

Another little Anne with a dark face walked out of the next room, and behind her, there were many more little Annes......

"You idiot, you can't drown if you throw it into the magma, you will be scalded to death!"

The other behind this little Anne began to retort disdainfully.

"What? You dare to call me stupid? Shoot you! ”

"Wow! Fight it, fight it, you're afraid you can't do it? ”

So, the two scolding little annes who had just come out of this house began to fight each other with a punch and a kick under the watchful eyes of a group of grinning companions and the stunned eyes of the assassins......

"No, no, no! I think it's better to use magma to fill them and kill them directly! ”

"You dead perverts! Wouldn't it be better to just burn them to death? ”

"Burn them? That's too cheap for them! I think it's better to give it to the lava dogs as food. ”

"Huh? Disgusting to death! Fire elementals are not allowed to eat people! ”

"Those blue-skinned trolls and green-skinned goblins, they're not human! It should be edible! ”

A group of little annes just ran up to their opponents and quarreled with each other, discussing how to punish these enemies, and scared these assassins, who had never been afraid of heaven and earth, and even the king dared to assassinate them, trembling all over, and almost peeing their pants!

They have been rampaging Azeroth for so many years, where have they seen such a battle?

Here, take a look now, there are at least hundreds of arcane mirror images, right? How can there be so many?

And, what's even worse is: they all look so real, and they all look like they're all real? They all can talk, not even talking, they even quarrel with themselves, and a few of them even catch each other and fight each other because of disagreements? They can even see that in the distance, there are two little Annies, just you are a fireball and I am fighting with ice bullets? Is this still something that people can do?

……

"Don't do anything! Full retreat!! ”

At this point in front of them, as long as these assassins are not stupid, they all know the true strength of this little girl, what kind of strength is she can do such an unbelievable thing...... Anyway, this little girl is definitely not something they can afford to provoke! These mirrors alone can almost make them desperate!

It's not like a mirror image at all, it's just hundreds of real mages...... In the case of mirroring, how could they quarrel with themselves and cast spells on each other to fight? Those houses that were burned and blown up by mistake cannot be faked!

Right now, what they can do and the only thing they can do now is probably ...... It's just that everyone has to run for their lives, right?

As soon as they heard the order to retreat from the leader in charge of the assassination, the other thieves threw down flashbangs or smoke bombs, and then began to forcibly sneak around, intending to leave this terrible place surrounded by these terrible mage mirrors!

If they could escape, they swore that they would never assassinate this horrible little girl again!

They had never seen a mage conjure so many mirror images in an instant, and it was such a real mirror image! They all look so pink and cute, they can breathe, they can talk, they can quarrel, they can fight! Can also cast spells? If you don't attack them, no matter what they think, they will never be able to tell the real from the fake!

"Uh-huh! Who allowed you to escape? ”

After the assassins had dived into the shadows, the hundreds of little Annies, with gloomy faces, uttered the same sentence in unison.

Then, they began to cast their own spells, using different spells, and in almost the same amount of time, they pulled out of the shadows one by one the killer assassins who were sneaking and trying to escape from here. They were then tied up with various magical ropes, all of which were thrown into a small square in the most spacious part of the biosphere.

Then, the hundreds of little Annies circled the garden, encircling the fifty or so subdued Assassins in the middle.

"We told you! You have to come out one by one, and you have to play this guessing game with us! ”

"We're here, there must be one that's true!"

"If any of you guess correctly, you can go right away!"

"If you're wrong, burn him!"

"Nonsense! It's better to drown him with lava! ”

"Nope! I think it's better to feed the dogs! ”

……

"Don't make any noise! Now, shut up! You say, who came out first to guess? ”

Seeing that the few little Annies in front of her who stood up to speak were about to quarrel again, the other little Annie had to stand up angrily and lecture the little Annies in front of her, and then she stood in front of the group of assassins with her head tilted up, looking at them with her chin down.

"Me! I'll guess first! ”

A goblin just can't stand this kind of stimulation!

Countless identical little girls gathered around their own people, and they also discussed how to kill their own people in different ways, this kind of pressure on their hearts, as long as they are alive, they can't stand it! Where is this group of innocent and cute little girls? It's a bunch of devils! A bunch of demons!

"Oh? So let's talk about it, who of us is real? ”

Seeing that there was finally a little goblin who couldn't bear the pressure and took the lead in playing this game with them, this little Anne who came out to lecture couldn't help but light up her eyes and said happily. Now, they can be regarded as having fun!

"It's you! You're real! ”

The goblin's eyes rolled for a moment, and then, in that exaggerated tone, it pointed at the little Anne who had come out to lecture and shouted.

It had just thought that since those little girls seemed to be particularly afraid of the one in front of them, and listened to this little girl so much, then she must be true! You can't go wrong! In this instant, the goblin gave 10,000 likes to his wit! Fortunately, it was the first to stand up, otherwise, this chance to survive would probably be snatched away by others!

"Huh? Are you so smart, little one? Well, congratulations......"

Little Anne bit her finger and looked at the cunning little goblin in front of her with a look of surprise.

"Wrong!"

In the ecstatic look of the goblin, and in the expressions of the other Assassins who reacted and were remorseful, the little Anne uttered three words of regret......

And then, poof! There was a soft thud on the ground.

The little Anne was right in front of the goblin, and under the stunned, frightened, and disappointed gaze of the other man, she instantly turned into a cloud of arcane dust, and quickly disappeared.

"Hahaha! See, you idiot! Does it think we're going to make such a low-level mistake? ”

"Hee-hee! Be careful with us, that's not okay! Anne is the smartest one! ”

"Cut! We're not so stupid, how can you guess so easily? Dumbfounded, right? ”

In the midst of the little girl's ridicule and ridicule, under the horrified gaze of a group of assassins, the goblin was cast by one of the little girls and thrown directly into a distant magma pool, and then, with a seeping scream, fluttered twice, and finally slowly sank, and only a small flame appeared on the surface of the scorching boiling magma......

"Now, it's your turn! Hurry up, if you guess, you still have a chance to live, if you don't guess, you will definitely die! ”

When the spell was cast, the little Anne clapped her hands, grinned and walked up to a troll, pointing to its nose and saying.

"It's you! You're real! ”

The troll looked around at the identical little Anne and began to shout hysterically at the one standing in front of him. It had no idea who was real, and the little girls, whether it was looking at them or smelling with the troll's sense of smell, all seemed to be real or all fake!

"Congratulations...... Wrong again! ”

As little Anne turned into a cloud of arcane dust, another little Anne threw the troll into a pool of magma in the distance, and then, as if nothing had happened, she walked up to the other human killer and looked into the terrified eyes behind the scarf.

"Now, then, it's your turn! Guess what? ”

A third Anne Junior stepped forward and stood in front of the third Assassin chosen. She blinked her cute big blue eyes and tilted her little head, looking down at the human assassin who had been scared and was still trembling. In those big talking eyes, it seemed to say: You have to guess, if you don't guess, you must die a miserable death!

……

Now, a long time has passed since a group of rampant killers assassinated Queen Anne of the Flame Kingdom, and it is said that this time Ravenhold Manor lost dozens of elite killers, all of whom were lost to the clutches of the brutal Queen of Flames, and none of them survived......

Later, according to the humans, dwarves and high elves in the biota, who were watching from afar, their Flame Queen and Lord Moe had at least hundreds of real arcane mirror images that had sparked around the poor group of Assassins, forcing them to guess, trying to get answers that would almost never be guessed!

In the end, the melon-eating crowd who only dared to watch from afar only knew that that day, the seeping screams of the assassin killers before they died lasted for a long time...... It is said that in the end, I was driven crazy by several people!

And the rest, without Queen Anne stepping forward to ask, they just said like pouring beans, saying that the Queen of Flame didn't intend to force them to tell those confidential things, and then they were all thrown into the magma pool and obtained permanent relief......

Since then, any human, dwarve, or elf who knows about this will no longer dare to wander around any magma pool. Because, once they were in the vicinity, they would unconsciously remember the seeping screams of the Assassins as they struggled as they were devoured in the scorching lava.
