Chapter XIII - Cargo
…………
"Did you get it?"
Fenris stepped on the broken land. The Blood Demon walked over after discovering him. When the orcs who went to the Broken Isles returned, the dragons promised to them by Deathwing were already waiting for them there, and then
The Black Dragon Gate quickly brought them back to the Cursed Land, back to the Blood Demon and the others.
"Yes, we got it." Fenris affirmed. He held up the long and narrow scepter wrapped in cloth and handed the scepter of Sargeras to the Blood Demon. At the same time, he felt that he could finally get rid of it.
Happy. "So what are we going to do next?"
"Go back to Draenor." Gorefiend replied briefly. His hands clutched the wrapped scepter protectively. "Our mission here is completed. Azeroth is no longer for us."
No matter how important it is.”
Fenris was about to ask some detailed questions, but a sudden rumble made him stop. He looked up and saw that the orcs were guiding several large wagons and pushing them into the valley. He remembered that in
During the conversation in the Blackrock Mountains, they knew that these should be the goods that Deathwing asked them to bring to Draenor.
"Gorefiend!" Fenris remembered that the owner of this voice was none other than Chief Warsong. Grom Hellscream and his troops had been harassing the Alliance troops stationed at Nethergarde Keep recently, and he had just returned.
Although he is still some distance away, everyone can hear his voice clearly. "These dragons! Did you bring them here?"
"Yes!" Gorefiend replied. Although he did not raise his voice, Grom could still hear him clearly. "The black dragons are our new allies!"
Chief Warsong frowned and shouted, "I hope your winged friends won't cause chaos." He took a few steps closer. "Is the mission completed?" Grom asked the two.
"Of course." Gorefiend replied without saying anything more. Grom looked at the trucks.
"What is that?" Grom asked.
"Cargo," Gorefiend replied shortly. Each wagon was made of thick wood, had high side rails, and was completely covered by a thick layer of tar canvas. Judging from the extent to which it was covered, these wagons
They are all filled with stuff.
"It seems we just need to get those artifacts." Grom said.
"The plan cannot keep up with the change." The death knight answered him. "Don't worry too much, these goods will not affect our plan." He caught a glimpse of several orcs trying to approach the truck, and then he used some kind of magic to turn his voice
Zooming in, his voice echoed throughout the valley in an instant. "I will personally protect those trucks. If anyone dares to take a peek, I will personally deal with them." The orcs were restrained and they stopped.
.The two orcs who were near the back of the truck quickly backed away after hearing this.
Fenris shrugged. He had completed his task. If the Gorefiend wanted to play any tricks, it would be between him and Ner'zhul. "How long until we leave?" he asked.
"I need some of your people to stay here to defend the Dark Portal. You and the other members of the clan can leave now." Gorefiend replied, "Taga, you also need to keep some bone-chewing orcs."
Fenris frowned, but nodded. He had hoped that all members of his clan could go back, but he understood the Blood Demon's decision.
"What about us?" Grom asked. After Fenris and Targa left, the Blood Demon turned around and stared at the warlord of the Warsong clan, and the other party could clearly feel that his face covered by a black cloak was smiling.

One week later, Nethergarde Keep
The drawing room is one of the few rooms in the castle that has been completed. At this moment, Turalyon was listening to Uther's report.
"So, this place has been attacked recently?" Turalyon frowned and Khadgar looked at each other.
The older paladin in front of him nodded, and continued to add: "Several patrols were attacked, and no one survived."
"Has Nethergarde been attacked?"
"No." Uther shook his head, but his worry did not diminish. He said: "General Turalyon, I am doubtful about the tribe's actions. According to the intelligence we have, the tribe has received help from the black dragon.
, and also attacked Dalaran and stole a precious artifact, I think..."
"I know what you are going to say, Uther." Turalyon said, and at the same time his thinking look was very much like Lothar. Uther could clearly feel this. "I have been speculating whether Stormwind City
The Book of Medivh lost in the Royal Library is also related to the Horde, and I received a report from Admiral Proudmoore that fishermen discovered a Horde ship on the coast a few days ago, which proves that the orcs have been out there.
Cross the sea."
"Their actions look very chaotic, but there must be some important connection."
Turalyon nodded. "How is the gathering of the Alliance going?"
"Eyrie Mountain and Ironforge have agreed to send troops. In addition..." Uther said, paused, and thought of Nathanos. Since he returned from Quel'Thalas, he has become taciturn.
Thrall asked him how the situation was, and Nathanos just nodded in response. "In addition, Quel'Thalas is also organizing reinforcements."
"Excellent!" Turalyon stood up. This was one of the few good news he had heard recently. "Before the Alliance army arrives at Watchfort, Uther, you sent someone to pay close attention to the movements of the Dark Portal.

Dalaran
Khadgar's shaved face looked very neat. He stood outside the Mage City. Even though it was late at night, there was still a room in the Violet Castle with lights on. Khadgar focused his consciousness on that room.
He began to float upwards, and when he stepped on the terrace, he found that the door leading to the room was wide open, with gauze curtains hung on it to prevent mosquitoes from entering, but this layer of gauze could not block the soft moonlight.
Degas gently opened it and walked in.
"Welcome, Khadgar." Khadgar was not very surprised when he saw Antonidas. This was the room of the Kirin Tor leader. Khadgar sat on a chair and Antonidas
Si handed him a glass of wine.
"Thank you." After the two of them tasted the wine at the same time, Khadgar did not speak.
Antonidas pointed at Khadgar's originally youthful face and joked: "A lot younger!"
"I try to make it look as comfortable as possible. I miss this feeling, the feeling of youth. But I am powerless and someone has to stop Medivh. Although most of the time I don't mind it, but sometimes, like now,
, I... really miss it."
"...I know." Antonidas said and nodded. Every time he saw Khadgar's face, he felt more or less ashamed. Khadgar was not twenty years old when he left, but he was still
A year later, when he returned to Dalaran again, Antonidas thought he had spent a century. The Archmage decided not to talk about this sad topic anymore. "King Terenas should have received my message.
Alright."
Kadegao endured the anger of the tribe attacking Dalaran, and he only revealed his doubts. "I don't understand, the tribe and the black dragon? But what about the red dragons? As far as I know, the two dragon clans are sworn enemies."
The Archmage shrugged, "No one has seen the red dragon for a while. Not long ago, a village on the border of Lordaeron was razed to the ground by dragons. After investigation, it was confirmed that it was the black dragon who did it. Maybe the red dragon has escaped from the orcs.
Control, of course, this is the best result I expected." He frowned again and continued: "But the orcs have found new allies, and it seems that this time they are all voluntary."
Khadgar shook his head and asked, "Are they planning to invade Azeroth again?"
"I don't know." Antonidas admitted. "Maybe. They have already invaded once, and they also led Alterac to the abyss." His brows frowned even more tightly. "The orcs stole it.
Eye of Dalaran, Khadgar."
"Yes." Khadgar knew what a big loss this was to Dalaran. "But what does the orc tribe want it for?"
"I don't know, but they did just steal a treasure from it." Antonidas said with certainty. "Several death knights successfully penetrated our defenses, took it away, and used the black dragon to
Help them escape. Just a few days ago, there were reports that the black dragons massacred all the Alliance troops monitoring Alterac, obviously under the instructions of the traitor Perenolde."
"What? How is this possible? How did Perenolde do this."
"This is another mystery. Khadgar, I think you should know about this."
"Thank you." Khadgar said these words heartily. "Yes, I really should know." He frowned and began to think deeply. He reached out his hand to stroke his beard, but found that his current
The chin was so smooth. "And maybe I can find out the reason for it. First it was the Book of Medivh, and now it's the Eye of Dalaran. Why are they specifically looking for these things?" Khadgar reluctantly put his hand in his hand.
He put the wine glass on Antonidas' table and stood up. "It's time for me to go back."
Nethergarde
"Focus on it. You don't need to force your hands intentionally. Relax your whole body, just as simple as spreading butter on a piece of bread." Nathanos adjusted a soldier's archery posture, but he only spoke verbally, wrapping his arms around him.
In front of his chest, he did not forcefully change the recruit's movements. At the same time, he stood three meters away to avoid the other party being nervous.
"Are you ready?"
The recruit swallowed and nodded.
"Let go." Nathanos calmly ordered. The soldier's hands were also relaxed and not as stiff as before. The arrow cut through the air and hit the target, hitting the red heart.
The surrounding soldiers clapped and applauded, and the recruit jumped up with his bow raised high. At the same time, he did not forget to look back at Nathanos, waiting for his evaluation.
"Excellent." Nathanos said, nodded with satisfaction, and then turned around to go somewhere else. But the first time he looked back, he saw Alleria wearing a tight green breastplate in the distance.
, and was surprised why she was here. Nathanos looked at her for exactly a few minutes, until the female elf turned and left to report to Turalyon. Looking at her back, Nathanos couldn't help but think of her that day.
Chapter completed!
