Chapter 15: Mavi's Grievances
"It took me half a lifetime to find this island, and it took me all sorts of tricks to get it to the surface. Then I and my retinue died inside, and we came close to making it. With my previous efforts, it would have been easy for you to capture the artifact this time. The voice in Illidan's head said.
"Then take me there. ”
At that moment, a Naga scout approached.
"Lord Fasqi, Lord Illidan, it's not good!"
"What's going on to be so flustered?" asked Fasqi.
"We spotted a ship landing, and after reconnaissance it was the watchmen who followed. ”
"Those idiots didn't get the job done. Fasqi said angrily.
"It's not their fault, I said earlier that Mavi's gang is not so easy to deal with. Illidan said.
"Lord Illidan, we're all at this juncture, can't we kill them with killers?" Fasqi said.
After a moment of silence, Illidan said, "We don't need to pay attention to them, just look for the artifact, and when we enter, close the entrance door, and when we get it, we will go out through the other door, and then leave here immediately." ”
The anger in Fasqi's eyes did not subside, but his tone calmed, "Everything is as you command, Lord Illidan. ”
Illidan led the Naga soldiers to the end of the building and chanted a spell.
The building shook, and the stone streaked into the ground, and a bronze gate appeared in front of me.
There was no lock or keyhole on the door, only a skull carved in the center.
Illidan pressed his eyes to the skull, and the skull's hollow eyes sent a flash of light towards his burning eyes, and suddenly there was a "click" and the heavy door opened. It turned out to be a door where the demon's eyes scanned the code, and it just so happened that Illidan had the demon's eyes to open it.
Even though it was a closed subterranean world, it wasn't dark, the walls were lined with glowing gems at intervals, and Illidan and Nagarns were used to the darkness, so everything inside could be seen clearly.
After entering the crypt, there are steps that go all the way down, and at the bottom there is a wide corridor with red letters written on the pillars on both sides of the corridor.
Illidan's voice rang out in his head, "This is the record I left behind, after arriving here, I asked my followers to split up to find the location of the artifact, but I accidentally triggered the barrier, and a large number of demons attacked everywhere, and all the followers died. ”
"Lord Illidan, there are many forks in the road here, how shall we go?" asked Fasqi.
Illidan examined the skull for a moment, as if lost in thought. Finally, he put down his skull and said, "Go from this path." ”
"Illidan, look where you're going!" a voice called out in the doorway, echoing through the open hallway.
"Mavi?!!How did you get in?" Illidan gritted his teeth.
A group of people walked over, led by Mavi.
"I didn't expect it, but I'm glad the old orc gave me this. She pulled a black ball out of her hand.
"That's the Demon Eye I used to open the door. Guldan's voice came to Illidan's mind.
It turns out that the old orc on the island looking for help was one of Gul'dan's retinue, and he was lucky enough to survive and get the key to the tomb of Sargeras. Now that he is infested by the ghosts of his companions, Mavi helps him find the remains of the ghosts, freeing them from the ghosts. In gratitude to Mavi, he told her the location of the temple and gave her the key.
"Mavi, why don't you let me go when you cross the oceans, why are you the only one who has escaped from prison and so many vicious demons?" said Illidan.
"Because that's where you're going to be, have you forgotten your promise?"
All the watchmen and Naga soldiers present were stunned, and Illidan's face turned pale, and he recalled the scene in the prison again:
"You're back?Mavi, yesterday you told you about how the former High Elves stole some of the Eternal Water and founded a nation called Quelsala in the Eastern World, what happened next?" said Illidan as he held the cell door in both hands and turned towards the darkness.
"Are you really looking forward to my coming?" said Mavi.
"I've figured it out, no matter what you say, whining or complaining, it's better than me facing the darkness alone. ”
Mavi was silent for a while, and said, "You know what? I was secretly watching you from the side when I was very young. ”
"Yes......"
"At that time, I had low self-esteem, I didn't have any friends, but I was not willing to be lonely, I liked to watch other people play, watch other people have fun, and that feeling was like I was in it. You, Malfurion, and Tyrande are the ones I watch regularly. ”
"So you have a penchant for voyeurism......"
"You're the most eye-catching of all, I have the impression that you're a troublemaker, and the teachers are a headache for you. ”
"You know that, too?"
"Until now, you haven't changed at all, you don't have the profound city government of the authorities, you are more like a naughty child. ”
"Maybe that's why I've been devastated so far. ”
"To tell the truth, I am disgusted by the hypocrisy of these councils, nobles, etc., and I am disgusted to deal with them once and again, they shout slogans of concern for the country and the people on the surface, but behind the scenes they are doing selfish things. ”
"Aren't you like that?"
"No, everything I do is to fight for power for the people at the bottom, and as long as I am there for a day, the rule of the Night Elves will not completely fall into the hands of the nobles. ”
"So you're great. ”
"It's been my greatest pleasure to come back here and talk to you, and maybe we have a lot in common. ”
"There's a lot in common? But one is a guard and one is a prisoner. ”
"In all fairness, I'm sad that you're locked up in the dark, and I'm sorry for doing so many horrible things to you when I first arrived. ”
"It's all in the past, you can't bear to see me locked up here, then let me out. ”
"This thing can't be done, the duty is here, I can't let you go. ”
"When am I headed here?"
"Can you promise me to talk to me every day?"
“...... Do I have any choice, of course I promise ......"
"Lord Illidan, don't be afraid, she didn't bring many people this time. Fasqi said.
Illidan came back to his senses from the memory.
"Whatever I promised you, it was when I was imprisoned, and now that I'm free, I don't have to keep a promise as a prisoner. Don't you understand that a person can go crazy if he is locked up underground for a long time. ”
"Okay, you're a bad person, so I'll just kill you!" Mavi shouted with tears in her eyes, baring her sharp teeth.
"Run!" Illidan shouted, picking up Fasqi and running into an alley with the others.
Then he cast a spell, and the buildings around him shook, and the road he had just passed collapsed in an instant.
"There are other ways to get around, and we must hurry and get the artifact before they arrive. Illidan said.
