Volume 5 The Return of the King 209 does not agree with a word
When I told Bill about it, her face was full of worry, which made me feel relieved and a little distressed. I don't want her to worry about me. And my wish to the Great Witch Magassa Terror Totem is to make Birgit a free man.
The Great Witch readily agreed, and said that if I had done it, I would definitely be able to do it, without any doubt. I chose to believe her, after all, killing a human is no exaggeration to say that I can do it even if I were asked to assassinate a certain king.
I told Bill that I was going to scout for the tribe, not to fight, but she was very upset, and the mission was to let me scout but there was a conflict, and she didn't want me to get involved in those things. But I made a promise to the Great Witch first, and I had to fulfill it. I didn't talk to Billy about what happened after the success, I know she's still very happy with her current life, but in my opinion, she is not free for a day and is tied up by Sylvanas, which makes me unsteady for a day.
I want her to be an independent person, a free person, who can not make choices she doesn't want to make because of Sylvanas's orders, and that she can have a better life instead of being bound here by an invisible shackle.
I set out on my own, the mission objectives and procedures were clear, I would first go to the Taurazu camp to exchange information with the scouts, and if I had time I would meet the man and his friends in the barrens, and the mud of the dust swamp would allow me to catch up with them.
In order to achieve the goal as soon as possible, I decided to embarrass myself again, because at this time there are not so many bipedal wyverns in Thunder Cliff for everyone to fly at will, so I can only ride the Kodomon, I can not rest at all, but this animal can't hold on, the villages along the way can finally have Kodomon to replace, if you can't estimate the Taolazu with this one alone, it will have to die.
Although I kept urging to hurry, when I reached Taurazu, the scout told me that maybe I had to go faster, so the two orcs and the four Kodor beasts followed me to the Dust Swamp, which I remembered as the dark swamp to the east of the Windwind Canyon and the kind of Hinterland, and when I got here, I found it more disgusting than the Wetland Swamp. The trees and grass in the wetlands were still green, and in some places the grass was so green that I felt comfortable, but the dark green and dark green here made me feel really depressed, and there were gray-brown dead trees and muddy ponds everywhere. Even more disgusting are the spiders that crawl on the trees.
I hate spiders!
There was no road at all, and the place where there was grass was probably the place where it could be walked, and the place where there was no grass must not be stepped on, but the puddles everywhere made it impossible for the Kodo beast to walk normally, so I had to abandon my mount and walk with one of the orc scouts. Now it's just that you're either going to catch up with them halfway or you're going to have to watch me.
Orc scouts have stronger instincts than I do, and the experience they have accumulated over a long period of time in the wild has helped us a lot, both in terms of orientation and the choice of the path forward. And the orc's sense of smell is indeed much more sensitive than mine, and several times he smelled danger and allowed us to avoid crocodiles and spiders. When I asked him what the danger looked like, he couldn't say, but he was able to accurately predict the danger that might occur.
By the time we found the signs of human walking, the two men had already entered the city, and to be honest, what happened next made me a little worried. That city is not what I imagined!
Originally, I thought that the city was built on the beach or on the edge of a cliff, but it turned out to be built on an island some distance from the coast, although the city was indeed not small, and the castle was built quite tall, but it would have taken some effort if I had done it in the past.
As evening fell, I waded to the island, with the orcs following me. But before we could get any closer, I saw a large ship leave the island, and the lighthouse on the island pointed the way to the ship.
"It should be a ship to Azeroth." The orcs told me.
It wasn't too hard for me to climb the wall, but it wasn't so easy to find the man when I got into the city, the castle was brightly lit tonight, and there was a group of people walking towards it. Not at all bad as I imagined, that person was indeed an incredible person.
But when I climbed into the castle from the outer walls, I was a little confused, and this castle is quite large. I eavesdropped on the servants in the castle, but not a word of the women was useful to me. So I had to crouch in the corner and wait for them to rest before I came out to move.
Hiding in the corner of the second floor, I watched the people going upstairs and downstairs, and when the figures of two women appeared in front of me, I felt the hairs on my back stand up.
One of them was expected by me, but the other woman I thought was a dazzle and hallucinating, but the moment I saw their faces illuminated by the light as I walked past the torch on the wall, I chuckled.
How is she here!
I suddenly felt that tonight might not be so easy, and there was a faint burning sensation from the rune on my left arm. I suddenly wondered if I wanted to go back, and I had a bad feeling in my heart. That old woman was anything but a good person.
When the castle was silent, I came out of the darkness, and the torch in the castle burned slowly until it was extinguished, and the servants of the night patrol would not come to check on it at this time. But after waiting all night, I didn't see a man who met the requirements appear, didn't he say that the man was with a Night Elf?
If the woman lived upstairs, then the man must still be downstairs, but on the first floor, I found only the banquet hall and the kitchen, and the servant's quarters, so the two would not have lived here. With doubts, I touched the second floor, then the third floor, and then the fourth floor. The higher I went up, the more panicked I felt. My gut told me that now I had to leave, and that it was experience, and that the best thing to do if I didn't feel good was to leave as soon as possible.
But when he was standing in front of the doors of the rooms on the fourth floor, he was about to turn around and leave, and suddenly found a woman in the corridor. I shuddered in my heart, the woman was dressed in white, and her long hair was not coiled up but scattered on the sides of her face, which looked very white in the faint light of the fire.
But I knew that face, and she caught me.
"I'm surprised you're here." She spoke, in an old voice.
Actually, at this point I was ready to draw my gun. "I didn't expect to see you here." I say.
"Why are you here?" There was no emotion in her voice.
"I'm here for someone." I say.
"Do you know what this place is?"
"I know."
"Who are you looking for?"
"Haven't found it yet."
"Looking for whom?" She said coldly
"I don't know." I say.
She walked without a sound, perhaps floated over, and she floated in front of me, "Who sent you?" ”
"Ms. Agra......" I clenched my fist slightly, "No, it should be Ms. Egwen...... Last time...... It's going to be almost twenty years. ”
"You haven't changed much." She said. "But you'd better answer my question first."
"I'm looking for a man." I say. "But he doesn't seem to be there." I stared into her eyes, and the woman kept staring at me.
She groaned, "What are you looking for him?" ”
"I want to see who he really is." I say.
"What do you know about him?" Egwen's expressionless face was simply questioning me.
"I just heard about him...... The martial arts are outstanding, and then the orcs are scurrying. "That's all I can say.
"What else?"
"I'm very unhappy that you're questioning me now." I frowned.
"You'd better answer truthfully, if you don't answer well......"
"You can't threaten me." I interrupted her directly, "Ma'am, I don't want to make trouble, I'm just coming to see who he really is, and then I'll go, nothing will happen." ”
"You're going to die." The woman said.
"If I had first met you twenty years ago, I might have been scared, but now...... It is not certain who will die. I said.
As soon as she reached out to my chest, I raised my hand and grabbed her wrist, only to hear a squeezing sound of ice, and a layer of fog appeared in front of my eyes, and I saw that my hand grabbing her wrist suddenly became frosty. Before I could lift my other hand, my jaw and face were sealed with ice.
She tried to pull back the hand I had caught, but when she pulled it back, I shattered the ice in front of my face and on my body. I looked into her eyes, "Can't you be gentle with me?" Like you tried to seduce me back then? ”
She looked at me in surprise and jerked her hand, and I let go of hers. "You ......," she exclaimed.
I didn't mean to touch her, and when she was about to raise her hand, I jumped on one side and pounced, and she reacted quickly, and her left hand only pushed at me with a huge force and hit me in the chest. But my outstretched left hand grabbed her wrist before I was pushed out by her, and she flew out with me with a "whoosh".
I dragged her to the ground, and I rolled over and lay on top of her, and I grabbed her mouth. Her indifference and indifference just now had flown out of nowhere, and now her eyes were full of panic.
"Shhh I gritted my teeth and lowered my voice to her, "I won't hurt you, old woman!" I don't want to hurt you either, now you'd better shut up. ”
Before I could speak, I flew up, hit the roof of the corridor and fell hard. As soon as I looked up, the old woman reached out and cast the spell on me again, I only felt a force hit my head and shoulder, and then a force lifted me up, and I flew up again, and then sat on the ground and rolled backwards several times.
The noise was loud enough to wake everyone up, and I got up from the ground and wanted to run, but downstairs I could already hear the door opening and talking.
Run the stairs!
It only took a split second for me to veto the decision, and then I turned around and kicked the door next to me, and the door opened and I walked straight in. The window was open, and I leaned out half of my body without hesitation, and at this time some kind of power in my body seemed to be awakened, and I hung myself directly on the window edge, and let go of my hand.
