Chapter 48 - Concealment
…………
Zhu Talan sat cross-legged on the ground. The battle seemed to be over, but he still did not dare to breathe heavily. Yaria was treating him, but she could only relieve some of the pain of skin trauma.
"I... just take a break." Zhu Talan couldn't help coughing twice, spitting out two mouthfuls of blood, splashing on his hands and legs.
"Master!" Tao Ya shouted, his face pale. "Ariya, send the master back to the Zen Temple."
The monk sitting on the ground shook his head. "The mountain is terrifying...the monster ran away, we must...stop it before it ravaged Pandalia."
"Let our friends stop the Storm Lord Narak." Tao Ya nodded to Yariya. Under the gaze of everyone, Zhu Talan was taken on the back of a Shadow Trace Leopard and left the Mogu Courtyard with Yariya.
The result of the battle makes people feel the joy of victory. Shanha is dead, but he has resurrected Narak. When he is about to face Thunder, Zhu Talan is seriously injured...
Tao Ya couldn't help but look at those who fought side by side with the Shadow Sect.
She saw Veronara pondering the dagger. She seemed to have seen the sword somewhere. Just as she wanted to recall, a forgotten man hurriedly passed by her and approached the Dark Ranger.
"Mr. Veronara, the Union and the Tribe were talking outside."
Veronara hurriedly put away the sword that had been pulled from the head of the mountain horror. "Very good, maybe we can be a witness."
...
Outside the courtyard, the Alliance and the Tribe had gathered their own people and faced each other. However, the two sides did not have a tense attitude.
"I'm so happy to see you, Ms. Jaina. And you, my sister." Aurelia nodded at Sylvanas, and then focused her eyes on the female mage in a robe.
Jaina, who has experienced a battle, wants to have a good rest, but now she has more important work.
"I am also honored, Ms. Regent. But the alliance is not here to say a few polite words."
"Of course, I think we should have a good talk, but not here." Aurelia caught a glimpse of a few black figures approaching. She hurriedly ended her conversation with Jaina and asked the ranger with a black tone: "I just heard your voice. You are Veronara, right?"
Since she had been recognized, Veronara no longer concealed her. She simply took off her hood and the people who walked with Aurelia were all elves, so she just let them see what kind of monster their former sisters had become.
"Thank you for remembering me, General."
This claim made Aurelia tremble all over. Veronala was also her soldier when she was alive, serving under her. Now the other party used the title of that time to call her, was she missing the past or was she deliberately ridiculing her?
"Why are the Forgotten Ones here? You..."
The Regent was interrupted before he could finish his words. "We do things all depend on his will, especially after defeating the Lich King. But you..." A smile gradually appeared on Veronara's face. "Aren't you afraid, General? He is on this island, you know who I am talking about."
All wounds will be uncovered one day, and then they will be torn open, or will they be completely healed. Aurelia cannot judge. She once ruthlessly rejected Nathanos in the past, but now her husband has the same power.
"I think he and I will meet again."
He had come. Veronara's eyes were staring at Aurelia like an ignorant girl. Sylvanas said she had a repentance towards Nathanos, and yes, Veronara saw it on the regent's helpless and painful face.
but……
"I hope it's not too late. So, I wish you a day soon." Veronara turned the other side, nodded to Sylvanas, and said to the Forgotten: "Soldier, go back to the port."
"Everyone, go back and rest, our mission is completed." Jaina also ordered her men to retreat.
The Regent was still standing in place, recalling what Veronara said just now. It's not too late to hope? This prayer seemed to express the opposite meaning. Aurelia hoped that it would not be so.
Someone touched her left shoulder and the Regent turned around and the Earlress Leaderine was looking at her worriedly.
"Let the soldiers gather the wounded and withdraw the camp."
Leadrin wanted to say something, but couldn't organize a word of comfort, so she could only nod and give orders.
"His Excellency Regent." Jaina's voice forced Aurelia to keep her heart in front of her. She cheered up.
"If possible, I plan to talk to you in detail at the Lightning Vein Mine."
The Lightning Vein Mine was once the territory of the Mogu tribe, and was then captured by the Alliance and the Shadow Sect.
"No problem, it's hidden, it's a good choice."
...
The Forgotten people don't walk fast when they turn back.
Veronara was leading the way, thinking about what happened in Mogu Garden.
"You seem to have intentionally concealed the fact that Master Nathanos is nearby, sir." A careful death hunter noticed what was hidden by her, and his curiosity drove him to ask questions.
"If he was willing to show up on his own initiative, he wouldn't hide in the dark."
"Why is the master unwilling to meet with us?"
Verona turned around and glared at the questioner. "Don't ask if you shouldn't."
The death hunter's eyes sank.
What Nathanos wants to do depends on his own ideas whether he wants to let others know. Others should not spy on it.
After walking for a while, Veronara suddenly stopped and ordered: "All of you go back and rest. I have another task to complete."
Several dark rangers were a little confused and had no objection. Although the others were not directly under her jurisdiction, they were not qualified to ask what he was going to do.
Looking at the soldiers' backs away, the dark female ranger began to turn around and run back.
Based on her knowledge of Nathanos, when everyone's attention is focused on one place, he will definitely act elsewhere. This is how the Forgotten was, but this time Nathanos came to the scene...
There is only one possibility, that is, the courtyard just now was the destination of Nathanos. He was falling down at the horror of the mountain.
Veronara took out the hidden dagger, which was Nathanos' weapon. He saved Zhu Talan's life. Was he forced or intentional? If it was the latter reason, it means he wanted to meet the Dark Ranger.
...
The terrifying body of the mountain fell to the ground, as well as Zandala and the Forgotten. After a while, no one appeared and cleaned the courtyard.
