Journey to Azeroth

Chapter 86 Smuggling
A scimitar with gauntlets was pinned to his waist, and he limped off the boat with a wooden cane under his arm, and came to Tom.

The captain showed a look of disgust, took out a piece of parchment, and said impatiently: "Hurry up and sign for the receipt. Seeing you group of thieves who have no limit, I feel sick and want to vomit. If I didn't owe someone a favor, hum snort……"

Tom ignored the stranger in front of him with a bad attitude, and ordered a dozen of his men: "Check carefully, whoever is responsible for the goods has problems, he will regret it!"

"We're smuggling, get the goods quickly, do you think we're just playing around?" the captain yelled at Tom in a rage.

The North Dock of Dalaran City does not belong to Dalaran. After leaving the North Gate of Dalaran and walking a few kilometers north, you will come to a small pier, which is located on Lake Lordamere.

Lordaeron Lake is an inland lake on the continent of Lundaeron. It covers a large area and has no outlet to the sea and no trade routes. Along the lake are the Kingdom of Lordaeron, the Kingdom of Gilneas, the Kingdom of Alterac and Dara Then four countries.

It stands to reason that so many adjacent countries should have very developed trade routes.

In fact, it is not the case. Gilneas and Lordaeron have land trade, and it is closer than water transport. It is completely superfluous to start water trade.

Dalaran and Gilneas and Alterac also have land trade.

As for the connection between Lordaeron and Dalaran, there is no need for water transportation, because Lordaeron and Dalaran have teleportation gates. Although the cost of teleportation is higher than that of land trade, the time is short and the cost is not too high.

Most of the boats on the pier in the north of Dalaran are fishermen who live on Lake Lordamere, and regularly sell the fish they catch to Dalaran in exchange for living supplies. These people live on the lake all year round, and some even I haven't come to land once in more than ten years.

It is some distance away from Dalaran, and the Sword of Dawn didn't bother to worry about the security near the pier, and just sent a small team of guards as a token.

The members of these squads are generally guards who have made mistakes or who are not welcome. It is obvious that the security station has turned this place into a place for all kinds of problem characters.

As a result, the quality of the guards here is extremely poor. All principles are based on money, and they do things for money. There is no awareness of the guards of the Sword of Dawn, so this place has also become a paradise for smuggling.

At this time, Tom, the vice president of the Thieves Union, was accepting the smuggled goods.

Facing the aggressiveness of the one-legged captain, Tom didn't bother to pay attention to it. If he didn't have the patience, he wouldn't be able to sit where he is now, and continued to tell his subordinates: "Check carefully!"

The blood vessels on the one-legged captain's forehead were thumping, and he was already on the verge of erupting. He walked over aggressively, grabbed Tom's clothes, lifted him up, and shouted, "Do you want to fuck or get out!"

At this time, the faces of the two were very close, and the hairy face occupied Tom's field of vision. As the captain opened his mouth to speak, bad breath also came.

Tom showed a disgusted expression. This guy had thinning hair and a Mediterranean hairstyle, but the beard on his face was very lush. It was completely different from him. Tom himself had no hair on his hair or face.

"Stay away from me, your bad breath is getting to me!"

"I think you should stay away from me, your ugly soul disgusts me!" the one-legged captain said in a mocking tone.

Tom showed a malicious smile, and the thieves who were familiar with his habits couldn't help shivering. This was a sign before Tom broke out.

He clenched his fist and punched the one-legged captain on the waist.

"Kidney Shot!"

The severe pain made the one-legged captain let go of his hand, put Tom down, and coughed violently while clutching his waist.

Tom, whose feet touched the ground again, kicked out, kicking the one-legged captain on crutches to the ground, pulled out the dagger from his waist, rushed forward, and put the dagger on the one-legged captain's neck.

More than a dozen sailors on the ship rushed down quickly, drew their weapons one after another, and surrounded them from all directions.

The thieves also stopped inspecting the goods and drew out their knives, a conflict was imminent.

The one-legged captain is also a hero, ninja pain, quickly raised his hands, shouting: "Hero, spare your life, surrender!"

Looking at the one-legged captain in front of him with malicious eyes, Tom continued: "Evil soul? Thank you for your compliment."

After speaking, he stood up, and kicked the one-legged captain away fiercely. The captain screamed, rolled and rolled to the feet of the sailor, and sat up humming, cursing non-stop.

Throwing a sack full of gold coins on the ground, Tom beckoned to his men, picked up the box and left.

Just when everyone was attracted by Tom and the one-legged captain, a beautiful fish seller took the opportunity to walk up to the boat, and gradually faded away while walking, and then disappeared.

……

A curved room decorated in the style of high elves. Along one side of the curved wall in the room is a floor-to-ceiling bed. The window of the room is opened. Through the window, various buildings below can be seen in the distance. It can be concluded that the location of the room is very high.

A magic chandelier hangs from the ceiling of the room, illuminating the room.

Carl sat at his desk, absorbed in a book.

The room is an uninhabited bedroom in the Kael'thas Mage Tower. The room is on the third floor of the Mage Tower. It is the room arranged by the housekeeper Jimmy Bass for Karl.

The book in hand was just borrowed by Karl in the library of the Mage Tower. According to the regulations of the Mage Tower, borrowing books is only allowed within the scope of the Mage Tower and is not allowed to be taken out of the Mage Tower. Karl did not leave.

There are not many materials on Mader in the library of the Mage Tower, nearly ten books, most of which are some materials and documents. The one that Karl values ​​is the book that wrote the arcane magic of the high elves. The title of the book is "Darth Rema. Sunstrider's Arcane Notes".

It was also the one that Karl was reading. In a few hours, Karl read the magic book and was a little disappointed. This book talked about some basic magic theories. From the current point of view, many theories in this book are somewhat obsolete.

The legendary Highborne mage Madr mentioned in one of the chapters about the race of high elves and arcane arts. The book did not introduce this legendary highborne mage in detail, but simply mentioned his name.

Taken together, this is a basic introduction to magic notes, and it should be a very classic work in the era of thousands of years.

As for other documents and materials, Carl has discovered something.

Mader was an upper elf nobleman who had shown a strong talent for magic since he was a child. Being able to achieve legends in that ancient era, which was still in the groping stage, was enough to show his talent and luck.

But this person's behavior style is unique, he doesn't like to socialize, and he doesn't like to enjoy himself. Although he is rich, he lives a life of studying magic as an ascetic day and night, as if everything in life except magic can't arouse his interest.
