Chapter 0398: Vanessa Van Cleef (2)

When Grian? In the midst of Stallman's hastily proclaiming the formation of the People's Army of the Wild West over the headless corpse of a certain duke, searching for Assassins and imposing martial law on the streets, the assassin Vanessa and the spell Lana appeared here with a snap in an uninhabited and inaccessible area of the Demont Wilderness, west of Mooncreek Town, in a hidden valley farm opened up by refugees who had evaded taxes.

Then, an acquaintance who seemed to have been waiting for them for a long time hurried to meet them.

"Vomit ......"

As soon as she emerged from the apparition, Vanessa didn't care about the reaction of the person who had been waiting and answering at this farm, so she threw the Duke of Leskova's head into the mud in her hand, and ran directly under a large tree on the other side of the farmyard, and vomited in embarrassment while lying on her stomach.

In fact, she didn't do it because of the head in her hand or the uncomfortable reaction after killing!

The current Vanessa, although it can't be said that she kills people like hemp or treats human life like a mustard, but killing someone, especially the nobles of the Storm Kingdom, this kind of thing is natural for her! It's impossible to feel nauseous or even vomit!

"Sister Lana...... Next time...... Next time I'm definitely not going to do that illusion with you......"

"Absolutely no ....... ......"

Before she could finish speaking, Vanessa's face changed again, and she fell under the tree again and retched.

Vanessa had seen Lana, Queen Anne's lady-in-waiting, use that kind of apparition to visit Quel'Thalas many times, and she had always thought that this was actually just a portal spell similar to a mage's, but it was faster and more efficient!

But who would have thought that she never expected that the result would be like this......

"Haha! My dear sister Vanessa, the illusion is like this, and you will get used to it after a few more experiences. ”

"Fortunately, you didn't think about breaking free from my hands when the phantasm came, otherwise, I, a seventh-grade student, wouldn't dare to guarantee your life!"

Lana herself naturally knows better than anyone else about the feeling of apparition! And once the other party breaks free of his hand and falls in the illusion, what will happen is probably only known to Merlin in the book.

I think that at the beginning, when she contacted this spell herself, that feeling was really just like what was explained in the book, in the process of phantom transformation, she would feel the strange feeling when she was strongly squeezed by the space, very uncomfortable, very terrifying!

But ah, there is a process for everything, and no matter how bad the discomfort is, as long as you get used to it, it will become simple!

And Lana, who is now proficient in the spells of phantom shifting and follower manifestation, has long been accustomed to this terrible feeling! Just as a veteran warrior is accustomed to the pain of his sword and body, and a ranger is accustomed to the soreness of a long draw of a bow, they mages naturally have their own things to get used to.

“……”

"I ...... I actually thought about breaking free...... However, I don't know where my own hands are at all......"

"I was ...... It just felt like I was being squeezed into a narrow passage and couldn't breathe...... I can't see anything either...... All the hands and feet seem to be squeezed together...... Then it was rolled around and kneaded again...... Finally ......"

"Finally...... Suddenly, it burst open again...... ...... vomit"

After gasping for breath and describing it for a while, Vanessa's face suddenly changed again, and then she went straight to the bottom of the tree and vomited, as if she would not stop until she vomited everything she had eaten before......

Or maybe your stomach has been crumpled by that damn spell?

Thanks......

Fortunately, when they were making a battle plan, Sister Lana strongly objected to what she said: directly teleport over and cut down the enemy, and then teleport back?

If they really did that, I am afraid that as soon as they teleported there, she, Vanessa, the leader of the New Defia Brotherhood, would be captured alive by the enemy directly after losing her combat effectiveness......

Then, she will be the stupidest rebel leader in this Western Wilderness, and even in the entire Eastern Kingdom Continent, where everyone can laugh off their big teeth, there is no one!

"Are you both alright? Then I'm relieved! ”

"That's right, sister! This head should be the noble Duke Leskova from Stormwind, right? You guys really succeeded!? ”

In Vanessa? Van Cleef couldn't care about anything else, and just when he was lying under the big tree and vomiting, a young warrior wearing Lordaeron's elite plate armor and the bear-headed robe of the Flame Alliance pressed the hilt of his sword, and walked over to carefully examine the head of the dead old man who had just been thrown to the ground by Vanessa for the first time.

The other party's beard and eyebrows are neatly trimmed, presumably he should be a big man? So, after kicking on his toes and observing for a while, he asked his sister Lana curiously.

That's right, this young human warrior, he is Annie's handmaiden, the younger brother of the spell mage Lana, the same awesome guy who dared to run out with a logging axe to the opposite side of the evil and terrifying undead at the age of twelve, and planned to infiltrate the lumberyard to steal food for his sister!

It's just that Pete, who was skinny at the beginning, has grown up now.

He is already eighteen years old this year, although his face still looks a little immature, and the lines are not obvious, but he has grown two heads taller than his sister.

And he specializes in the way of warriors, he looks unusually tall and strong, and his muscles are also very developed, and now he has directly become the general of the new Defia Brotherhood, directly from a trainee second lieutenant officer under Daddy John in the City of Flames, and has become a general who commands nearly 3,000 Defian Brotherhood rabble militants!

"You wait a minute......"

Lana didn't pay attention to her brother's question, but frowned slightly, hugged her body directly, and slowly curled up to a chair in the courtyard.

"I feel...... The time limit for the potion effect of the Polyjuice Potion I drank is also approaching......"

Sure enough, as Lana frowned and curled up in her chair, her body began to tremble violently, and then her entire face and skin began to squirm wildly...... Soon, as the potion effect was completely over, she was transformed into another great beauty again.

Then, when everything calmed down, she finally breathed a sigh of relief, wiped the cold sweat on her forehead and shook slightly.

"Hoo ......"

"Although this compound decoction, it was made by luck after I tried a lot of medicinal herbs unique to our Azeroth world according to its medicinal properties, and it tasted good...... But...... I don't want to drink it a second time......"

After taking out two small bottles of polyjuice potion from her small magic pocket and looking at them twice, Lana poured them out with some regret. This kind of thing can't be kept for too long after adding the hair of those two women, and it's useless to keep it.

And the recipe for this transformation potion was also found in the book Hogwarts Magic Spells Encyclopedia! In that book, there are a lot of medicinal materials that she can't find exactly the same, so she can only experiment slowly, and thanks to the fact that the Flame Kingdom is very rich, she can toss the potions at will, so this is the two bottles of compound decoction that she drank in this operation!

Lana, though, prefers to call them potions!

Anyway, they're so magical that they only need to throw in a little bit of the material on the body of the creature they want to become, such as someone's hair, skin scraps, or fingernails, etc., to turn into the other person's appearance, which is easily unrecognizable by ordinary magic detection methods!

Of course, this potion has its own limitations.

That is: you can't be too different from your original size, it can easily turn you into a dwarf, or a High Elf, or even a little ogre with a small size difference! However, it can't just turn you into a giant dragon!

Even if you throw the dragon's scales or other materials into it, it won't do anything! At most, it will only turn you into a miniature version of a baby dragon, and that's it.

"Sister...... You haven't told me yet! Is this head the great nobleman of Stormwind City? ”

Seeing that his sister was finally back to normal, Pete kicked his head in the mud again, and then looked at his sister expectantly.

"Yes, Pete!"

"We both made it! That Duke Leskova, he was really an idiot, he easily let his guard down when he saw a beautiful woman, and he stuck his head directly in front of Vanessa's sister without knowing whether he was alive or dead, and he was simply killing himself! ”

Thinking of what had just happened, Lana couldn't help but feel a little proud.

Because of this plan, she formulated and implemented it at that time! For this reason, they also sent someone to secretly tie up the two women of the little aristocratic family, and use each other's hair to make a compound potion, and then, she and Vanessa successfully mixed in.

But in fact, it doesn't mean that everything is going well......

Just now, when she was on that high wooden platform, when she saw that Duke Leskova had been pestering Sister Vanessa, she was still a little worried! At that time, her worried and anxious expression was not disguised at all, it was all true!

Because, at that time, according to her estimates, the effect of Vanessa's sister's compound decoction will soon arrive! And if they can't find a chance to drink some more potions to make up for their status, then they will have to be exposed...... Fortunately, at that time, Vanessa pinched the time just right, and just before the potion expired, she simply cut off the head of the Stormwind nobleman who stretched his neck.

"That Duke of Leskova didn't die so easily...... At that time, we were surrounded by their people! ”

"So, Pete, you must remember to me in the future: the more beautiful a woman is, the more she can deceive! They will often hurt you inadvertently! At all times, you must be vigilant, never be blinded by women, and you must not relax! ”

After speaking, Lana looked at Vanessa, who was still retching under the big tree, not to look at the other party's soft and weak appearance now, when killing people, it was very murderous!

"Humph! Did you hear that?! ”

Lana squinted at her brother's eyes, she knew very well that this good brother of hers, Bacheng had taken a fancy to this Vanessa sister! Otherwise, he wouldn't have been so active in running to be the other party's subordinate, and kept saying that it was for the Flame Alliance, so he came here to make trouble for the Stormwind Kingdom.

And his true purpose, Lana, as an older sister, can actually be seen at a glance!

Otherwise, she wouldn't have interrupted her spell practice in the Flame King's Palace, and she had secretly sailed with them to this western wilderness far away from the Flame City.

"Uh...... Well...... this."

Following his sister's gaze and knowing the other party's understanding, Pete scratched his head a little wryly, and didn't dare to answer.

That's right, his careful thinking was indeed seen by his sister, but he didn't mind too much. Because Pete knows that this Lana sister who has always cared about and loved him, he will definitely support him! This can be seen from the fact that the other party did not refuse or hesitate, and directly came to the hinterland of the Storm Kingdom with his unconditional support for Vanessa's sister's plan.

"Alright, Sister Vanessa, don't be so squeamish, isn't it just a phantasm?"

"You may not know, every time I want to punish that little brother of mine, I always take him back and forth several times in and out of the City of Fire, so much so that now he is used to it! So, if you try a few more times, you'll love the exhilarating feeling of being squeezed by the whole world. ”

After glancing at her shy brother in annoyance, Lana walked up to Vanessa with a smile and thoughtfully handed over a handkerchief.

At this time, she suddenly reacted that it was probably a little difficult for her stupid brother to catch up with this powerful woman......

Look at it, don't look at the fact that Sister Vanessa is only in her early fifteens and has not yet reached the age of sixteen, but, with the foundation that the other party is doing now, once it can be done in the future, maybe she will be the queen of the western wilderness again?

And what about her silly brother...... Looking at this great opportunity in front of him, he didn't even come over to comfort the two and offer some courtesy to increase the friendship between the two sides, but instead just went to study the dead man's head of that nobleman there stupidly?

Sure enough, if it weren't for the help of her sister, that idiot would definitely be useless in this life!

"No ......"

"Sister Lana...... I don't think I'll ever use this illusion spell with you again...... It's not the same as the long portals opened by the mages of the High Elves! ”

After barely breathing a sigh of relief, Vanessa leaned over and sat on the ground directly against the trunk of the tree, gasping for air.

In the past, when she traveled through the various portals of the elven mages of the Quel'Thalas many times before, she would not have the terrifying feeling she had just felt when she traveled to and from various places in the Flame Alliance for training and various tasks!

The kind of portal that a regular mage of the High Elves is actually no different from walking through an ordinary gate! It is only when passing through that long-distance space door that there will be a little bit of weightlessness-like discomfort, and it will only be a little bit, and there will not be too much abnormality.

It's like the illusion shifting spell that Lana used just now, and she almost died without suffocating her!

"Hah! Didn't I tell you that a long time ago? ”

"The spells I learned, but the quick spells that Her Majesty taught me at Hogwarts back then, are different from those learned by those arcane mages or warlocks!"

"Besides, don't look at the illusion shift spell I just had, it seems inconspicuous and uncomfortable to use, but it's very effective! If you change to an ordinary mage, before they can guide the spell, I'm afraid you will be cut into several pieces by those guards! Unlike my apparition, it just needs to wave its wand and shout a spell, almost instantaneously! ”

Thinking of the exhilarating sense of accomplishment she felt when she had just escaped easily under the noses of her enemies, Lana couldn't help but lift her chin proudly.

After so many years of self-study, although she had only learned the level of the seventh grade graduate, and there were many more advanced magic spells that she had not had time to learn, she firmly believed that she would one day become a powerful archmage!

As long as her magic level can be improved somehow, she believes, it will definitely be!

"Her Majesty...... Sister Lana, do you mean Her Majesty Queen Anne? ”

After hearing Lana's words, Vanessa was finally stunned, and inadvertently remembered the little figure who saved herself at the gate of Stormwind and then gave her a powerful shadow power.

It can be said that in this world, in addition to her dead father and the mother who has little impression, the only thing she respects, loves and is grateful to is the sister Anne who saved her in danger......

I don't know, after so many years, where did she go to that magical existence? What has become of it now?

"It's a pity...... She'll probably never come back......"

"And, Sister Lana, you can also see that those old guys in our Flame Alliance are too useless, a good alliance, look at what they have been tossed into now......"

Thinking of the Alliance, Vanessa's eyes slowly dimmed, and then it didn't take long for her to cheer up again! She felt that she could definitely make a career and help the north here in the western wilderness, she firmly believed!

Now she has grown up, and she is no longer the little girl who can only cry and cry!

Therefore, it won't be long before she will use her own hands to bleed this despicable kingdom here in this hinterland of the Storm Kingdom! Then, Queen Sylvanas and Queen Kalia can be given precious time to regroup and regain their strength, and Vanessa believes that she will be able to do it.

What her father Edwin didn't do back then, she will definitely try to do it in the next few years as long as she is alive! She wants to make this great cause bigger and stronger, and then ...... Fulfill his father's final wish, and with the hands of the Van Cleef family, personally destroy the one who was killed by Edwin? Stormwind built by Van Cleef and the Masons Guild!

"Rest assured, Sister Vanessa...... I think the Queen will come back, I'm sure she'll be back! ”

Thinking of the little queen she served back then, Lana couldn't help but sigh softly.

In the years without the Queen, although she Lana lived a very leisurely life, no one took care of her, the Queen's lady-in-waiting, and allowed her to live freely in the palace and learn magic, living a luxurious life comparable to that of Her Majesty.

But...... The luxurious palace that stood in the middle of the City of Flames, without Her Majesty, Lana always felt as if something was missing?

"I hope so......"

"That's right, Pete! How is the training of our army of the New Defian Brotherhood, you are not lazy, are you? ”

Thinking of the assassination operation just now, the conscripted warriors found in the temporary military camp outside Yuexi Town, and then thinking about the Western People's Army that the other party was about to establish, Vanessa ignored her physical discomfort, forcibly stood up, and asked Pete, who was still carrying a human head to study.

This is the most crucial step in their next plan, and nothing can go wrong!

"What else, it's so-so......"

"Hey! Don't look at me like that, I know I'm very talented, but the Chief...... You can't expect me to train that rabble of 3,000 men to the level of the regular army of the New Lordaeron Kingdom in less than a month! ”

"Now they basically barely have some discipline, and they will no longer run out casually to rob houses, you can reach this level of contentment! Anyway, there is still more than half a month, and when the batch of weapons and equipment you ordered arrives, they will definitely be a group of qualified reserve militiamen! ”

Shrugging his shoulders, Pete said a little indifferently.

"Up to ...... I can barely pull two hundred of their best soldiers out of them to form your most elite guard, probably ...... Those two hundred people should also have the strength of our Flame Alliance recruit regiment, right? ”

After seeing that Vanessa's face didn't seem to be very good, Pete hurriedly added.

Those rabble, it would be very good to be able to be beaten and scolded by him to train into a group of disciplined guys, you really can't expect too much! You must know that now in the Flame Alliance, a qualified recruit has to go through at least a year of hard training!

And now, they've only been training for a month.

Although he Pete is a genius warrior who is about to break through the heroic rank, he is not a powerful demigod like the Flame Queen, and he doesn't have a good solution to things beyond his ability. And now even this method of training recruits is a secret he learned from Daddy John!

“……”

Hearing Pete's negative reply, Vanessa frowned slightly.

She didn't know what to do now, after all, the war on the northern continent was very tight now, and the Stormwind Alliance's use of troops in the Arathi Highlands north of the Saldo Bridge and the Hillsbrad Hills around South Sea Town had greatly dispersed the military power of the Flame Alliance!

Therefore, at this time, it is impossible for her to borrow elite soldiers from any kingdom......

"Relax, my lord!"

"Although our subordinates are a group of rabble, those guys in Yuexi Town are also a group of mud legs who have just gathered! And our large rabble against their militia has nothing to worry about, at least...... There are a lot of people on our side, don't we? ”

Compared to Vanessa's worries, Pete seemed much more relaxed.

You know, now there are 3,000 of them! And when those weapons and equipment arrive, they can instantly pull up a huge army of nearly five thousand people! Although their combat effectiveness is not very good, it is more than enough to run amok here in the Western Wilderness.

Anyway, now the Stormwind Kingdom doesn't have the time and energy to mobilize an elite army to come back and encircle and suppress them, right? And by the time the Stormwind Kingdom finally has no choice but to mobilize troops from the Outlands or the North, I'm afraid that the Western Wilderness will have become the territory of their New Defian Brotherhood.

"Okay, let's do this for now, don't let up!"

Nodding and instructing, Vanessa, who had collapsed after a phantom transformation, waved her hand, refused Lana's support, and staggered a little stubbornly and staggered alone to the farmhouse.

Now, the aristocratic lord who was in the town of Mooncreek has been killed by her, and that Grian? Stallman was also severely humiliated by her twice, and then, she could take a good rest...... When the goblins from those venture capital firms arrive, her new Defiian Brotherhood can revolt directly in the Wild West, stabbing the heart of the Stormwind Kingdom with a sword!

“……”

"Alas...... Peter...... You ...... guy."

Looking at her own brother who was happy to carry someone's head, Lana covered her head speechlessly and followed Vanessa in, not wanting to look at her stupid brother again! She didn't understand, that guy, when he saw Vanessa like this, wouldn't he come over to help?

"What's wrong with me? It's inexplicable......"

Scratching his head, he looked at his sister a little confusedly, and after realizing that he didn't seem to have done anything wrong, Pete quickly turned away.

He plans to take the head of the Duke of Leskova of Stormwind City to their secret barracks and hang it high on the banner of the barracks to boost the morale of his subordinates!

If the situation allows, he might be able to take the opportunity to give the lazy fellows another two hours of training?

"Vanessa, what are you going to do next?"

"Do nothing, rest for a few days and find some monsters to practice your skills......"

"That's right...... Then don't you want to go to Mooncreek Town to play assassination again? ”

"Isn't it self-defeating to go there now?!"

"That's what I said......"

“......”

As Pete excitedly carried the head of some hapless duke and left, the sound of two women talking to each other came from the farmhouse.
