Chapter 106: The Queen Returns, the Tribe's Envoy

~8 min read 1,438 words

Sylvanas nodded at the words, then looked at her dark ranger subordinates.

While she, the lord of Undercity, was away, most Forsaken didn't know the details; only these dark rangers did.

Only then did they learn where the queen had gone, and these dark rangers would relay her commands.

"Lord Luode, Sister Sylvanas, her people look just like her but a bit strange," Bulin whispered in Luode's ear.

He didn't know why these female dark rangers always gave him a terrifying feeling, especially their blood-red eyes.

Luode didn't speak, but smiled.

"Get up! You've worked hard this period; while I was away, nothing happened in Undercity, right?" Sylvanas asked.

"Great Banshee Queen, during this time nothing major happened in Undercity."

"It was just some envoys sent by the Horde inquiring, and Silvermoon City also sent a few mages saying they wanted to discuss cooperation," a dark ranger said.

When Sylvanas left, she had made full preparations, just for a month's time.

Undercity wouldn't see major chaos; even if envoys from other forces came, the dark rangers could temporarily hold them off.

"Hmm! Besides the Silvermoon City envoy and the Horde envoy, are there envoys from elsewhere?" Sylvanas nodded and asked.

Silvermoon City and the Horde sending envoys wasn't surprising to her, after all Luode had brought many old Horde members over, and Silvermoon City also wanted to acquire the Floating City's technology.

Another place, the mage city Dalaran should also be taking action? "Your Majesty, Dalaran's mages also sent a visit letter; according to the agreed time, Mr. Ronin will probably come to visit tomorrow or the day after," a dark ranger said.

"Hmm, right! How's the Dark Portal? Have you finished building it?" Sylvanas asked.

Besides the old Horde orcs responsible for participating in construction, her Forsaken subordinates also poured many people into building the Dark Portal, secretly carried out in Undercity's hidden underground space.

"Your Majesty, over this month we've been constructing; the Dark Portal should be completed around tomorrow," a female dark ranger said.

That's because they are tireless undead and the old Horde orcs with limitless strength can work so quickly.

If it were other races, without three or four months, even half a year, they couldn't build the Dark Portal.

"I understand; first go summon the Horde envoy, I'll prioritize meeting the Horde envoy," Sylvanas said.

"Yes, Your Majesty." The female dark ranger nodded and immediately withdrew.

"Luode, come with me to meet the envoy sent by Thrall! Afterwards we'll see the Silvermoon City envoy," Sylvanas said.

Luode had decided to let Kaido's people all join the Horde, so no matter what he had to meet Thrall in person and brief him on the New World.

"Hmm!" Luode nodded.

"Little girl, stay here with Yamato; don't run around, or if you go elsewhere I fear you'll be frightened," Sylvanas said.

After regaining all her living senses, Sylvanas also smelled some pungent odors in Undercity; to prevent enemy invasion, many toxic gases were released in the city's underground river.

Moreover, most Forsaken lack top-tier Death Power to protect their flesh, so their bodies emit a foul corpse-like stench.

Only some top-tier dread guards and dark rangers can keep their flesh from rotting; other Forsaken lack this ability.

But from now on, after obtaining the Yellow Spring Fruit, Sylvanas can feel her soul becoming immensely strong, and she can absorb and transmute Death Power.

Even after returning to the Azeroth world, this feeling becomes even more obvious.

Death Power she can now obtain endlessly; in the future she can promote a cadre of confidants so their bodies won't rot, and even make the entire Forsaken race immune to bodily decay.

"Why do I have to stay here? Lord Luode, can't you take me with you?" Bulin immediately began to act coquettish.

"Be obedient, or else you'll see strange things and smell strange odors later, and I fear you'll be startled; let me tell you, there aren't many living people in this city, mostly dead," Luode said.

"Sigh!!" Bulin.

"Hehe! I am the Banshee Queen, the queen ruling the dead.

"This place is called Undercity; my subjects are all Forsaken, commonly known as the undead." Sylvanas said. "Could it be! Could it be that Sylvanas isn't a living person?" Sylvanas and Luode exchanged a smile and left the queen's palace together.

Yamato stayed behind to comfort the already overly frightened Bulin; after she enters the city later, she'll likely still get a bit frightened.

After all, this city has many Forsaken whose bodies are just bones or rotting flesh; the horror level surpasses even the Moonlight Moria's terrifying triangular sail ship, one of the Seven Warlords! So we need to give this girl a preventive shot beforehand.

"When I first came here I was also startled, but these folks are just a bunch of pitiful people, nothing to fear, they won't hurt you, rest assured!" Yamato patted Bulin's shoulder and said with a smile.

During this time, Bulin's relationship with her became very harmonious, very close.

"Sister Yamato! Can you tell me what this world is like? Let me prepare mentally!" Bulin said.

The man I follow is indeed a big shot! Controlling an entirely new world, if this news got out the shock would be comparable to the Age of Exploration, even far surpassing its opening.

"No problem, this place is called Azeroth; where we are now is Undercity, the gathering place of the Horde Forsaken." Yamato began to tell Bulin some basic facts about Azeroth.

Meanwhile, Sylvanas and Luode were receiving the Horde envoy who had come.

"Respected Banshee Queen, the Horde's Warchief Thrall sends his greetings." An orc shaman bowed to Sylvanas and said.

"No need for formalities, Horde envoy, do you have any orders to convey to me?" Sylvanas asked.

"Warchief Thrall urgently wants to know why you have a band of old Horde orcs under your command, and why they seem all infected by fel power?" the envoy asked.

These fel-blood-infected fel orcs of the old Horde are, to the true orcs of the new Horde, a disgrace.

Although the new Horde's orcs are mostly green-skinned and fel-infected, they differ from these red-skinned orcs; they are the true orcs.

And the other side are already beginning to demonize into fel orcs.

Even within the new Horde's orc groups, they don't consider fel orcs their kin.

"This matter, Master Rattleson will after a while personally go to the Horde to explain to the Warchief and show him a miracle.

"By then the Warchief will know the cause; believe me, these old Horde fel orcs will regain the glory of their ancestors.

"After the Dark Portal opens, let Treason come over to personally talk to Thrall! Then when Thrall sees Treason's appearance, he'll know fel power can be controlled in the pirate world.

"Then Master Treason, when can he return? Where is he now?" the Horde envoy asked.

"Master Treason will be back in three or four days; then we'll use teleportation to send him back to Orgrimmar," Luode said.

"This is Mr. Luode, right? The Warchief specifically instructed me that if I see Mr. Luode I must convey his greetings to you." The Horde envoy bowed to Luode and said.

"Envoy, please convey my greetings to the Warchief and tell him that soon I will bring Kaido to the Horde to discuss joining."

"The Horde will eagerly await your arrival." Luode and Kaido joining the Horde is a good thing.

"Envoy, do you have anything else?"

"Without the Banshee Queen, Mr. Luode, I'll take my leave first." the Horde envoy said, after which he gave Xierwannasi another salute and then turned and left.

However, before leaving, he unintentionally glanced at Xierwannasi.

The Banshee Queen's eyes seemed to have turned a light blue, no longer the previous blood-red.

Moreover, her entire aura seemed to have changed, and even her voice was no longer as grim and terrifying as before.

Overall, she appeared much softer.

"So now we should meet the envoy of Silvermoon City, you say—could they really have discovered something in this month?" Xierwannasi asked.

Before leaving the Aizelasi world, Luode deliberately used his fruit ability to create some flame clouds, then sealed them with a magical device and handed them to the Silvermoon City mages so they could take them back for careful study.

I don't know whether those Silvermoon City mages have managed to discover anything.

"Since they sent mages to discuss cooperation, it must mean they've discovered something; otherwise they wouldn't be so eager to cooperate." Luode said.

You Silvermoon City mages, please don't disappoint me! (End of chapter)
