Chapter 403: Avada Kedavra
"Huh? What is this... ah! It's a reward notice?!"
After finishing the business in Karazhan on the Deadwind Pass, Annie bid farewell to those troublesome adults in Medivh and left that annoying area of time and space chaos. Finally, she used the portal to teleport to the name of West Wild The town of Stormwind Kingdom called Yuexi Town is here.
The people here are in a hurry, no one stays here at the city gate, and the nearby guards with iron and wooden shields and long swords are also staring at each passerby with vigilant eyes, even Anne herself was examined by the other party with strange eyes for a long time.
Before she entered the simple city gate of Yuexi Town, little Annie immediately saw a notice board standing at the gate and the two sketches and rewards of criminals posted on inferior yellow paper. official announcement.
Reward 1: Vanessa Van Cleef, a thief! Gender female, between the ages of fifteen and sixteen, with short black hair and about six feet tall, is now the leader of the terrorist and violent organization of the New Defias Brotherhood. Serious crimes like the Duke of Lescova...
Kill the target and reward 3,000 gold coins! Those who provide accurate trackers will be rewarded with 100 gold coins after verification!
The West Wilderness People's Army of Yuexi Town, Storm Kingdom, xx, xx, xx.
Reward 2: Suspected important member of the Defias Brotherhood, Mage! Unknown name, female gender, unknown age, unknown appearance and height, good at using a short staff of about one foot, now an important member of the New Defias Brotherhood's terrorist riot organization, and once committed the coordinated assassination of Greg Lai The Duke of Scova and the crimes of covering up the bandit leader...
Whoever kills the target and presents the wand credential will be rewarded with a thousand gold coins! Those who provide accurate trackers will be rewarded with fifty gold coins after verification!
The West Wilderness People's Army of Yuexi Town, Storm Kingdom, xx, xx, xx.
"Tibbers, look, that Vanessa and the others seem to have been offered a bounty by the bad guys!"
In the blink of an eye, Annie stood at the front with her little bear in her arms, looking at the bulletin board that was hardly read by anyone, gloating and talking to herself.
For some reason, Annie suddenly thought of a good idea: if she did some bad things in Yuexi Town, would those bad guys come to offer a reward for herself?
Of course, this is just thinking about it. She herself is a peace-loving child. If there are no bad guys who take the initiative to provoke her, then it is very unlikely that Annie will just casually burn bad guys for fun.
"And, she's so tall now... She's grown to six feet..."
Annie bit her finger, then began to twist the fingers of the other hand and silently calculated in her heart: If one foot is equal to a little over thirty centimeters...then about six feet is equivalent to nearly 1.8 meters the height of...
Sure enough, time is the most annoying thing!
She herself just went to the outside world to play happily for about two years. When she came back here again, the little Vanessa who loved to cry back then had grown into a long-legged sister...
But now, Annie herself is still the same as before, which really feels a bit out of harmony!
(…)
(If you don't like it, you can release the time law of constant time passing on your body at any time, and then wait until you grow up, it will only take a few years, it will definitely not take much trouble.
——For this matter, Tibbers was noncommittal. Anyway, no matter what its little master becomes, it can't escape the fate of being treated as a pet. Therefore, these things have nothing to do with it, and let this little master make troubles. )
"I don't want it, growing up or something, I hate it the most!"
"It's great that she's smart, cute and cute... There are so many fun things in the world, I don't want to grow up so soon!"
After sternly rejecting Little Bear's bad idea, Annie tiptoed and directly tore off the reward announcement of Vanessa and another mysterious big sister,
Just holding it in his hand, he walked towards Yuexi Town while studying the things in his hand.
"Hey! Little girl, what are you doing to tear down those reward notices?"
After walking a few steps, Annie saw a dirty old man calling her, who was holding a lot of reward notices and a bucket of paste in his hand, it seemed that the two notices that Anne tore off were made by What did he post?
"Those bad guys want to catch poor little Vanessa, of course I will tear it down!"
Seeing that the other party still had a Lame notice in his hand, Annie blinked, then said indifferently. Anyway, she can tear it up if she wants, why are there so many?
"Go! Go away! A child's family doesn't know what is a good person and what is a bad person. I can warn you, go home quickly, and don't tear it up again. It is illegal to tear up official documents and notices!"
After raising his eyes and seeing that the poster on the bulletin board had been torn off by the little girl, the old man urged the little girl to leave early while cursing, and impatiently re-posted the reward announcements that still had a lot of rewards left in his hand.
"Hmph! Of course I know what a good guy is and what a bad guy is! I know more than all of you here combined!"
Hearing that this dirty beggar-like old man dared to underestimate her, Annie stared back with her eyes wide open in displeasure.
"Ha! Okay, okay, you know everything! Then tell the old man, what is a good person and what is a bad person?"
Randomly brushed the rice paste with a brush, and then pasted a few pieces of paper crookedly on the wooden bulletin board. Several copper coins.
So, he finally had the will to turn his head around, and teased the little girl who still hadn't left. He could tell that based on the clothes on the other party's body and the appearance of clean skin and tender flesh, they must be children from rich or noble families, and they must be different from him, a poor old man.
"..."
Annie opened her mouth, looked at the dirty old man, and suddenly hesitated.
"Haha! How about it, don't you know?"
Sure enough, whether it is from a noble family or an ordinary family, no matter what, he is just an ordinary child. At most, he has a good life and was born in a good family... How is he like the two grandchildren of his family? ? Now, under the heavy military taxation of the kingdom, there is almost no food left!
"Humph! I think good people, or those who treat me well are good people! And those who I think are bad, or those who want to bully me, must be bad people! In short, no matter who they are, they are good people if they treat me well. Anyone who treats me badly or has bad intentions must be a bad person!"
After finishing speaking, Annie snorted coldly, turned around and left! She doesn't want to waste time worrying about this old man here!
"..."
"Although it's a child's angry words... But, it seems that there is some truth in it..."
Looking at the background of the little girl going away, and then looking at the contents on the bulletin board and the half bucket of rice milk left in the bucket, the old man who was in charge of posting official documents and offering rewards couldn't help but sigh.
Once upon a time, their family lived well here in Yuexi Town, guarding a small farm with a few acres of land... But now, when the Stormwind Kingdom increased taxes and launched a war, his eldest son was starved to death, The daughter-in-law also died of illness, and the youngest son ran off to nowhere in order to escape military service...
Now, his farmland has been confiscated as a fine for his youngest son's military service, and now he is the only old man and two grandchildren who are unable to survive... If, that Vanessa, that Defias If the Brotherhood can really divide the land and reduce taxes, maybe she is really a good person for poor people like them?
"..."
"Hey! Tibbers, those people are really stupid... Forget about little Vanessa, she still has a portrait and a rough body image, but this big sister of the mage has nothing? Then why do they Maybe you can catch it?!"
How could they dare to offer a reward for arresting a sorcerer whose name is unknown, who is tall, short, fat, and thin? If someone randomly finds a fake one to pretend to be, they probably won't recognize it, right?
(What are you going to do next? The coastline is quite far from here in the west, and you have to cross the Great Wilderness to get there, and this is a place near the middle and lower part of the Westfall. Now you are going to the seaside to wait for the elves and dwarves. Fleet?
——After coming out of Karazhan, according to the trajectories of the stars and the moon in the outside world, it should be about ten days in the past, so Tibbers reminded his little master again, don’t forget The fleet that is about to arrive. Otherwise, it will not be easy to find that Vanessa again. )
"You don't need to go...Anyway, after Vanessa and the others arm those soldiers, they will attack Yuexi Town sooner or later. Maybe we can wait here?"
The coastline is so long, the world is so big, and she didn't say where she landed before, and she didn't give any specific coordinates, so where did she go to find them?
Besides, looking for someone or waiting for someone is the most annoying thing for her. How can she stay here comfortably for a few days? Annie just wants to rest here for a few days now, without doing anything!
(…)
(If you want to live here and wait, you can do whatever you want... By the way, I want to remind you: Just outside the city, there was an old paladin on a horse who seemed to be staring at you? You know, now The Kingdom of Stormwind is in a state of hostility and war with your Flame Alliance, if they recognize you, then there will be something to play with!
——Although Zuo Zuo is just a paladin with barely passable strength, whether it is Tibbers or the young master of his family, they don't take each other very seriously, but the necessary reminders and precautions It still needs to be done, which is the basic duty of Tibbers. )
"Don't be afraid, they can't beat me anyway!"
(But...they may have too many people, it's very troublesome...)
"Hmph! Now Shannox and the others don't have to guard in the Firelands anymore. If you dare to mess with me, I will summon the Flame Legion, or release those disgusting bugs from the Koprulu sector." Come out and see who has the most people!"
Her Majesty Queen Anne or Her Majesty the Head of State Anne has a lot of dog legs, and those who want to work for her may be able to line up to the end of the universe? If it is more powerful than herself, she herself dare not boast that she is the strongest. After all, there are gods, Titans, and Burning Legion in this world, and so on!
But, if you want to compare the number of people, then she will definitely not be cowardly!
You know, after Ragnaros, the king of the fire demon, and Lord Leolis, the twenty-five son, were both killed, the Land of Fire finally stepped into a harmonious, prosperous and stable situation again.
And now Shanknox and the others are urgently preparing a new Flame Legion. It will only take two or three months at most. The portal to the city of flames will be reopened, and then the endless army of flames will march southward, sweeping away those damn stormwind coalition forces!
By that time, the Flame Kingdom, which has completely freed up its hands, will be able to produce at least two to three hundred thousand elite troops of fire elements, and all of them will be high-level or high-level elites. At that time, just ask those Stormwind City Are the heads of the coalition forces strong enough? !
(Okay... then you can do whatever you want...but I would like to remind you that if you open the portal from the Koprulu star area, energy is a big problem! After all, this is not the Marvel world, a portal that crosses planes It can't be turned on for a long time, the energy of the infinite stone is no longer infinite.
——In this world, Tibbers still prefers to summon the Fire Elemental Legion from the Fire Elemental Plane, because this is closer and consumes less energy. It can pull out three to five thousand fire elements, and it must be enough to clean up some small miscellaneous fish or cheer. )
"You're so annoying, Tibbers... I'm going to have lunch now, don't bother me anymore!"
(…)
"..."
When Little Annie took her little bear and threw the reward announcement in her hand into a corner of the town and disappeared at the corner of the street, the leader of the Western People's Army who had been staring at her frowning Grian Stallman, the old paladin, finally came to his senses.
Then, not knowing what he was thinking, he just lowered his head and meditated.
"Your Excellency Grian, do you find any problems?"
A young knight from a noble family who was also riding behind the old paladin rode his horse to Grian's side, and followed Grian's gaze, looking into Yuexi Town suspiciously.
"No... nothing..."
"Maybe I read it wrong... Okay, let's go, let's continue to patrol! Although the members of the Defias Brotherhood around have become a lot more honest due to our suppression, but We must not relax, we must be more vigilant!"
After shaking his head and exhaling, Grian Stallman didn't say much, but clamped the horse's belly again and shook the reins, letting the horse under his crotch continue to trot forward according to the path they used to patrol. stand up. He must lead a patrol once a day in order to warn those with ulterior motives and let them know that he, Grian, has been here in Yuexi Town, whether it is the Defias Brotherhood or others, he must be honest.
However, just now...
He seems to have seen a very familiar figure of a little girl... Moreover, the other party seems to be carrying a plush bear... Although it looks like someone, Grian still thinks that this may be his own idea to scare himself That's all!
After all, several years have passed, and the age between the one I just saw and the one in the rumor doesn't seem to match?
Compared to the little girl he saw just now, Grian is obviously more willing to believe that the other female mage next to Vanessa was the one in the legend when he assassinated the Duke before! After all, the remnant of Van Cleef who appeared at the gate of the Stormwind Kingdom back then has grown so big now, and it is absolutely impossible for the Flame Queen to be the little girl she was back then.
"Obey! Your Excellency Grian!"
Soon, a group of more than a dozen cavalrymen from the Western Wilderness People's Army surrounded them and rushed towards the road outside Yuexi Town.
————
"Sister, have you noticed..."
"Those guys on the farm before, they followed up quietly just as you thought... Moreover, they are all thieves and sneaked behind our team. Could it be that they are really the soldiers of the Stormwind City?" Seven?"
In the north of the central part of Dimont Wilderness near Wild Boar Ridge, Pete, Lana and dozens of guards are pulling nearly fifty carriages. They left Alexton Farm earlier and walked west After the distance, they turned and headed south while no one noticed, intending to return to the hidden canyon to the south of them.
Of course, no one who said it found out that it was on the bright side!
In secret, they knew that there must be many sneak thieves following them all the way! And this situation has long been discovered by a magic equipment with a special vision on Pete's body! It was given to Little Pete when Illidan was still the acting leader of the Flame Alliance. At that time, he didn't know what the purpose of this thing was, but now, he seems to know.
Because under the belt-like blindfold of this special field of vision, he could clearly see the large group of thieves sneaking around and following them from afar, and the number of the other party was as many as hundreds!
Pete felt that it was really not easy to send so many thieves to follow. Ordinary organizations really took action.
"I know, just ignore them!"
"Look, the front should be our pick-up point, right? I seem to have seen those soldiers. Later, we will deal with those uneasy guys in the front. We must not delay until night!"
Looking at the fiery red sun gradually sinking into the horizon in the distance, Lana frowned slightly.
The number of thieves on the other side is really beyond her expectation. Even with the rabble who came to support them, it is estimated that it will be difficult to resist so many professional killers, so she decided: wait for them to go to the front where the Defias brothers If you know the pick-up point, take action against those thieves!
Otherwise, once it gets dark, it will be even more troublesome! In the dark night, against such a group of professional killers, even Lana herself might have to run away, right?
"Hurry up! Gather at the front, everyone is ready to rest!"
Suddenly, Lana who was riding a horse yelled loudly, telling the exhausted grooms and attendants to speed up and gather on a high ground in front of them after driving for half a day in the wilderness.
"Peter! We pretended to be urging the team to hurry, and slowly fell behind. You pay attention to follow me to guard the surroundings. Later, I will directly set fire to force them out!"
Lana withdrew her cuffed hand and quietly grasped her staff.
She still remembered that this was one of the two things the Queen threw at her when she had the cheek to beg Her Majesty Queen Anne to teach her magic! One of them is the "Hogwarts Spellbook"; and the other is this magical wand in her hand that is different from others:
Epic purple quality, crafted by Anne Hasta.
Item Requirement Level 1
Increases the power of fire spells by 50%
Increases spell haste rating by 100
Mana recovery rate increased by 50%
+2 Blazing Flame
Soulbound item, indestructible!
Lana, who was rubbing the staff in her hand, was still clear about its composition: it was a twelve-inch-long magic staff from Quel'Thalas soaked in the energy of the Sunwell for thousands of years. The trunk of the oak tree, and the core of the staff is made of a tail feather of the fire eagle lord Selia. The outside of the staff is also engraved with patterns of strength and magic. Finally, the handle is also inlaid with two stars from the land of fire. The crystallization of the fire element!
Overall, it's a powerful wand.
For this magic wand, Lana has always cherished it! Although it is very strong and almost impossible to be damaged, she still takes care of it carefully in normal times, and usually puts it directly in the wand sheath on her right arm, so that it can be taken out and used against the enemy at any time.
"Okay, sister, please rest assured!"
Pete tied the special cloth belt on his brow to ensure that he could sense those stealthy thieves without affecting his vision and hindering his display of strength. If it's one-on-one, he's definitely not afraid of those guys! However, now that there are so many people on the other side, and they can still sneak, then he has to be careful.
...
"!?"
Mathias Shaw and the others were following the Defias Brotherhood's ration team from afar, planning to find a suitable time and place to do it, but they were surprised to find: in the distance, that The two leaders of the Defias Brotherhood who had been urging and shouting for the team to gather for a rest suddenly stopped at the end of the team, and dozens of scattered people rushed over from a distance to surround them. Militants?
There is no doubt that those should be the other party's support personnel.
"Blazing flames!"
Suddenly, the woman on the horse jumped off the horse, and then took advantage of the upwind position to wave her hand at the knee-high withered grasslands in the western wilderness!
In the next instant, a long tongue of flame spewed out from the top of her wand, and directly pulled a long wall of fire almost hundreds of meters below her high plateau, and then, driven by the wind, the wilderness The fire quickly spread and began to press towards the hundreds of MI7 thieves who fell far behind!
"Oops! They found us!"
"We can't wait until night. Let's go together and follow the original plan. Remember to kill that mage first!"
Seeing that the other party was trying to attack them with fire, Mathias, who appeared, waved his hand violently and let his men prepare to launch a strong attack from both sides of the fire wall! As for himself, he disappeared immediately and entered a stealth stance again, intending to bypass the wall of fire from a farther place, and then look for an opportunity to sneak attack behind the opponent!
Following the orders of the leader, the agents and assassins of the SI7 in Stormwind City executed very efficiently. They almost didn't need any more instructions from Mathias. They dispersed tacitly and divided into several groups. Sneaking around on both sides.
"Hmph! Leave the ones on the left to me, sister, be careful with the ones on the right!"
Seeing the enemy approaching in two directions from the special field of vision, Pete sneered and pulled out the broadsword around his waist, and then led dozens of Defias Brotherhood soldiers towards the shadowy figure on the left under the firelight. Zhuo's thieves rushed up.
Now under such circumstances, he, Pete, must take the initiative to attack, and he must not wait until those thieves come to him.
charge! Shockwave!
With one combo, Pete, who is the pinnacle of a high-level fighter, with the help of special vision, rushed over and ruthlessly knocked a thief away! Then, with a wave of his long sword, he instantly stunned several stealthy enemies with a cone-shaped shock wave of anger. When he saw the opponents appear, he grinned grinningly at the others who were horrified, not knowing why they were attacked. Another group of assassins who played invisibility rushed over!
"Kill them!!!"
Seeing these thieves who appeared and the enemies who were faintly visible under the fire began to approach, the soldiers of Defias' brotherhood shouted to cheer themselves up, and then began to wave their long spears. Swords and shields formed formation to meet them,
In the next instant, the sound of fierce close combat began to resound here.
The thieves from SI:7, who are good at assassination, are a little bit helpless in this kind of melee. Every time they want to forcibly sneak, they are beaten out by that strange soldier! In addition, the sky is only vaguely dark now, and the strong flames make it very difficult for them to hide, so they have to bite the bullet and hold short knives and daggers to face those Defias members who are holding long swords and shields...
"ah!!"
When a Defias warrior was about to help his companions besiege another enemy with a sharp knife, suddenly, his throat was quietly wiped by a sharp dagger. When he clutched his throat and fell to the ground struggling , more soldiers rushed forward, directly hacking the SI:7 thief who appeared after wiping his throat to pieces...
"..."
"There are many obstacles!"
Compared with the fierce battle on the left, it is obviously much easier to deal with Lana on one side alone! She waved her magic wand lightly, and an invisible wall appeared directly in front of her! Then, those enemies who were sneaking, whose figures were a little hazy in the light of the fire and the coming night, after rushing over, they were caught off guard, slammed into them and fell out screaming!
Now, the ones they hit against the wall have all taken shape.
"Shenfeng Wuying!!"
However, if they thought this was Lana's attack method, they were wrong!
After seeing the enemy appearing, Lana waved her hand with a sneer, shouted a spell, and waved like that, but still did not see any signs. Before he had time to react, he was instantly slashed by an invisible sharp blade!
next moment...
Dozens of bleeding heads or limb fragments with some upper limbs slipped from their bodies...
Now, the other SI:7 thieves and assassins who came around from the right were frightened! They didn't expect that the mage's attack method was so weird, completely different from those mages they had seen.
However, when they were terrified, Lana, the conjurer of Azeroth's new faction, didn't stop there, because she knew that there were at least dozens of enemies surrounding her!
"Fluorescent flickering!!"
This time, Lana did not continue to attack the enemy, but instead fired a white ball of light emitting strong light into the sky, and then it was suspended in mid-air, illuminating the surrounding area like daylight! And under that dazzling magic light, all the sneaking thieves around were all photographed.
"Very good!"
"Long live the mage!"
The Defias soldiers who had been severely suppressed by the thieves and the entourages who came from a distance to support them, when they saw that the enemy had nowhere to hide, they all surrounded the enemy again with high morale. .
Invisible thieves are scary, especially at night! Because, you never know when your neck will be wiped! But now, the other party has shown their figure, and the number is not as large as their brotherhood, so they don't love each other at all!
Rogues who can't sneak are not even better than recruits like them! They are long swords and shields, while the opponent is short knives and daggers, which is better and worse, at a glance!
"Damned!"
"All petrified!"
"Disarm you!"
With the enemy fully revealed, Lana quickly waved her wand again, causing those enemies in the distance to either scream and faint on the ground; Looking at the empty hands after the weapon flew away by itself...
They were a little confused. What kind of mage insisted on researching this kind of strange spell that makes weapons fly away by themselves after being fed up and having nothing to do?
"Bones in pieces!!!"
Feeling ruthless in her heart, Lana didn't care whether the means were cruel or not, she just pointed her magic wand at the enemies in the distance one after another quickly, and in the next instant, a series of fast red lights came from her Shooting away from the magic wand, those immobilized or unconscious enemies were blown to pieces by the spell, and those shattered corpses and bright blood directly stained a large area of these withered yellow weeds in the wilderness of the West. Like a blossoming red flower blooming...
"!?"
"Armor protection!!!"
Suddenly, Lana seemed to have noticed something was wrong, and finally stopped killing those thieves, and instead directly pointed her wand at herself!
Click! !
Then, in the next moment, an icy blue short blade suddenly pierced in front of her body, about two inches away from her throat, but was covered by the golden shield-like film that suddenly appeared on her body. , Then, before the manifested enemy had time to use his strength, he was thrown away by the protective spell with faintly visible traces of armor.
"Hmph! You can still stealthily sneak under my fluorescent lights. From this point of view, your strength is not bad. You should be their leader, right?"
After thinking inwardly that it was dangerous, Lana held the wand tightly and aimed the wand at the other party. She knew that this enemy might not be easy to deal with, and she had to go all out without any reservations. If possible, she would use some special spells.
"Hmph! Mage, next time you won't have such a good chance!"
Mathias didn't hesitate, he flicked his dagger, ran towards the female mage in a zigzag route again, and rushed towards the opponent quickly!
The moment he was bounced away just now was nothing to a master like him! He decided to try again to see if he could forcibly take down the opponent. If not, he could only retreat temporarily and try again after the night came or their helpers arrived.
"I'm afraid you won't have the next chance! There are many obstacles! Imprisonment quickly!!"
Another two spells in a row, before Mathias had time to react when he hit an obstacle, another two spells in a row quickly hit Mathias who had to stop suddenly.
Shadow Cloak!
disappear!
However, after the other party was imprisoned, Lana was a little surprised that the other party was able to dispel her magic in an instant and forcibly sneaked again, disappearing all at once.
"Hurry up and show up!"
It's a pity that what Lana lacks most is all kinds of spells against the enemy! So, Mathias, who had just sneaked around and got behind the enemy, was shocked to find that he had been revealed again?
Moreover, the tip of that woman's staff was aimed at himself at this fatal moment? !
"Avada Kedavra!!!"
Suddenly, at dusk when the night was about to enter, and there was still a red light in the sky, a strong green light began to light up on the tip of Lana's twelve-inch wand, directly illuminating Westfall In this large area, those kobolds or wolves who were planning to hunt here when they noticed that there was movement here, turned around and avoided this place...
The instinct of animals is very powerful, they all know that that green light has a strong breath of death! Still troubled by the latest chapters you can't find?
