Light's Dawn of Azeroth

Chapter 836, Section 4. Diakum thought he must have been blind before. What kind of teammates are these?

"Oh, they've finally started fighting! Great, I love watching other people fight."

In the "tidal wave" of the void quadrant, Blake Shaw, comfortably lying on the deck "sunbathing," is holding a strange telescope and gazing towards the home port.

Upon noticing the towering flames and sudden storm, the scoundrel jumped up in a fright.

He carefully examined the battle situation. After confirming that most of the other members of the Brotherhood were still there and that they were still besieging Big Brother Cyber ​​amidst the dazzling interplay of light and shadow, even this scoundrel who couldn't stand not causing trouble for a day felt a bit numb.

What a pity!

He only wanted to mess with Dick, who was returning from his trip, and gain some benefits for himself; he never intended to make such a big deal out of it.

But as expected of him.
The random planting of landmines has actually detonated the biggest hidden danger within the Brotherhood today. But the question is, can the combined strength of the others really withstand Big Brother?

That's obviously impossible.

The eldest brother was already a multiverse-level powerhouse thousands of years ago, while the others were trapped in the limits of their single universes and could not transcend them. The difference in strength between the two cannot be solved by simply adding more of them.

"Holy crap! How did they drag Handsome Murphy and Bad Zhou Ke into this too? Do they even have the ability to participate in this kind of world-destroying 'war of the gods'? I bet the aftershocks from Big Brother's fight with Dick would crush them."

Blake rushed to the bow of the ship and frantically adjusted the focus of his binoculars so that he could see more clearly.

A moment later, he saw a new portal open in the frenzied battlefield. When he saw the guy who rushed out of it, dressed in training clothes and carrying a sword, whose style was quite different from the others, the scoundrel was shocked.

"Damn! Even Shen Qiu, who's been on a 'secret mission,' has been summoned? Judging by the looks of it, Boss Jiang will be here soon too! This is truly a reunion of the brothers. Too bad, I'm not going to mess around with you guys."

"Since everyone's tied down, it would be a disservice to the grand spectacle I orchestrated if we didn't seize this opportunity to cause some trouble."

The two-faced captain lowered his binoculars, hesitated for a moment, then turned back and shouted to his ghost ship:

"Turn around! Head to Raven's Mystery House. There are lots of treasures hidden there that I'm drooling over. It's time to rob my buddies. Those idiots are coming to trade with me soon. Let's set the meeting place at the Mystery House and let them take the blame for this."

fast!
Hurry up and finish this massive raid before Big Brother beats everyone up. Wow, Diakum's second phase of the Light and Shadow Twin is really something else.

How could it survive Cyber's relentless attacks in its 'Binary Form'?

He actually managed to hold them back. If the others had been more effective, they might have been able to take down this gambling addict who's hopelessly addicted to gambling today.

Ah, what perfect cannon fodder!

At his urging and command, the ghost ship swiftly changed its mode of operation, plunging headlong into the raging tides of the Void Quadrant like a submarine. The stealth hunt was then initiated, allowing the ship to approach Raven Merlin's second stronghold, "The Mysterious House," in the Void Quadrant at an astonishing speed.

As a skilled pickpocket and thief, the scoundrel has done little else in the years since joining the Brotherhood, but he has thoroughly figured out where the other brothers in the organization "hide their treasures."

He is now ready in his captain's cabin.

The Void Lord's Mysterious House was just the first victim. If there's still time, then I'll go to Tyrion's Darkblade Castle next, and the third will be the Artisan Legion's treasure ship "Mason's House".

The treasures in these three great places are enough for him to live a carefree life for countless epochs, but in the spirit of "since I'm already here" and "a thief shouldn't leave empty-handed," he also plans to visit his little brother, Handsome Murphy's, Transcendental Vampire Vault. He won't go to Bad Zhou Ke's place since he's a penniless pauper, so as not to have to take out a few copper coins and leave them at his house.

"Hiss, should we go to the High Heavens of Diakum?"

The pirate squinted, looking hesitantly at the multiverse star map spread out before him.

The overall strength of Azeroth, where Dick is located, is somewhat "abnormal." The ancient sun god has been rescued, the moon goddess is no longer restricted, and the chief architect Lishwim is also free to move around.

That guy's strength is very subtle. The pirate is sure he won't lose, but what if the chief creator captures him in the laboratory using some strange method? Wouldn't that be embarrassing?
Doesn't the Silent One have any pride?
"Forget it, I'm not going on any more adventures. The Firstborn...tch, a bunch of troublesome guys!"

Blake Shaw scoffed and retorted:

"Those guys didn't just leave their mark on the sea of ​​stars in Azeroth. Who knows if I'll run into them again while I'm running around in this multidimensional world?"

Even in a multi-dimensional context, those guys are still a group of scoundrels that are not to be trifled with.

Hey, let's fight! The more lively the fight, the better. That way it'll be easier for me to move around. I'm going to make a fortune today! Hmm, I still need to figure out a way to trick that incredibly shrewd spirit from the mysterious house with whom he has an inappropriate relationship.”

And so, in this wicked captain's cabin, the wicked captain began his wicked hair storm, and wicked thoughts burst forth from his wicked brain, eventually forming the wicked inspiration for a wicked plan.

When the mysterious group of men who had bribed scoundrels to create rifts within the Shadow Brotherhood finally arrived at the rendezvous point given by Black Shaw, they were astonished to find themselves before the renowned Void Lord's Mysterious House, a place that had just been ransacked.

Not only were the doors and windows wide open, but the windows were also smashed.

Just outside the mysterious house suspended in the hidden zone of the void quadrant, the soul-devouring ghost ship Nagfar of the scoundrel pirates was docked there. The ghost pirates, cheering loudly, were carrying various treasures out of the mysterious house in groups. Those guys were so happy that the scene really looked like a pathetic scene after a treasure trove containing countless treasures had been breached by a group of shameless pirates.

Now these suspicious villains were certain that Black Shaw had indeed betrayed the Brotherhood of Shadows.

Otherwise, it's impossible to explain why, while others were fighting to the death under the instigation of those scoundrel pirates, this damned bastard actually took advantage of the chaos to plunder his own brother's mansion and laboratory.

Is this something a human being could do?!

Given the Shadow Brotherhood's distinctive style of doing things, the fact that this despicable pirate did something so outrageous means that his reputation within the Brotherhood is ruined and he can no longer stay.

This is clearly a decisive action that signifies a complete break.

Therefore, after a brief exchange and communication with the powerful figures behind him, these mysterious spirits finally confirmed Blake Shaw's "willingness to surrender".

They landed at the entrance of the Mysterious House, carrying the goodwill of the important figure. Fearing the "good reputation" of this ghostly place in the past, they followed the group of ghost pirates who were still carrying treasures into the hall. There, they found Black Shaw drinking heavily and getting drunk in front of the magnificent fireplace.

"Come on, everyone, have a drink."

The dissolute pirate captain laughed and said:
"This is a fine wine brewed by the Void Lord from the sins of evil people collected in Hell. It can't be found anywhere else. You have such a good thing but you keep it hidden away. You know I'm a drunkard, yet you still don't bring it out to offer to me at every gathering."

"Tch, obviously he doesn't consider me a brother at all."

"We are not fortunate enough to enjoy these highly poisonous substances."

The spirits surrounded the pirate captain, and they all said in unison:
"We have taken note of the divine battle taking place in the 'Black Cat and Gun' bar, which stems from your machinations and has caused a rift within the Brotherhood of Shadows, and a brutal rebellion is underway."

This undoubtedly proves your exceptional talent in this area; however, the agreement you made with the big shots is not as simple as just instigating a rebellion.

You need to get the Shadow Brotherhood members' heads for the big shots!
At least one.

Or perhaps the treasures in Cyborg Hawke's collection.

"Hmm, is this what you're talking about?" The drunken captain raised his finger, and with a light flick, the sound of fragments colliding rang out. Under the watchful eyes of those mysterious spirits, several strangely shaped fragments were taken out of his void pocket by Black Shaw.

The fragments appeared to be unaffected by any other mysterious power, yet their appearance caused the spirits to gasp in astonishment:
"A fragment of the Wall of Origin! Yes, this is it!"

Many years ago, when the Shadow Brotherhood faced the threat of the collapse of the Origin Wall, they turned the tide and repaired the source that would unleash endless calamities across the multidimensional world if it collapsed. It is said that they used these fragments to repair the Origin Wall and hid it in a special dimension where no one could find it.

The bigwigs need these fragments to reposition the Wall of Origin, the knowledge recorded on it. It is not the private property of the Shadow Brotherhood!

You also have no right to monopolize their distribution.

"It's them, not me. I'm no longer a member of the Brotherhood."

The pirate captain raised his eyebrows, seemingly lost in thought, and said:
"Hmm, this is the first time I've known that these fragments could be used in this way. No wonder that gambling addict hid these broken bricks like treasures and even put on a show with his wives to entrust them with safekeeping."

Hey, but our Blake Shaw is the most handsome young man in the whole area, and he's a master at befriending emotionally vulnerable girls.

"Fuck!"

The mysterious spirits who came on behalf of the important figures were dumbfounded when they heard this.

They exclaimed in surprise:
"You cheated on Cypher Hawke? You've got guts!"

"Am I fucking crazy to do something so shameless? I can't even keep my own harem in check, how could I possibly be in the mood to flirt with other lovely married women? Sigh, I'm actually starting to envy that ascetic monk Diakum."

The scumbag pirate sneered:

"I just became good friends with those enthusiastic older sisters and easily tricked them into giving me these fragments. But now that I know these fragments are very valuable, the reward we agreed on before is not enough!"
I want to double it!
"If you won't pay, I have plenty of ways to sell these hot potatoes to other interested people. There are plenty of wealthy lunatics in this diverse world."

"Of course, of course."

The mysterious spirits had long anticipated that this guy would make exorbitant demands.

After all, the pirates' "good reputation" across multiple dimensions is legendary, they said calmly:
"But this concerns the fragments of the Wall of Origin, which is beyond the control of us insignificant people. Please come with us. The great ones are waiting for you to offer up the fragments of the Wall of Origin with both hands. They can assure you that you will receive a proper reward."

More importantly, the big shots are very interested in your responsibilities within the Shadow Brotherhood!
They also hoped to obtain the lost souls wandering in the void quadrant as 'seeds,' and they hoped to obtain even more.

"Those are just some ordinary, unlucky souls."

Blake Shaw toyed with his wine glass and casually remarked:

"Just some guy to amuse the other bastards in the Shadow Brotherhood."

"Ha ha ha ha"

The mysterious spirits laughed loudly and said:
"At this point, you're still trying to play tricks. That is indeed the Brotherhood of Shadows' biggest secret, but the big shots have their own methods. We've already confirmed that the lost souls you've been salvaging come from the other side of the Origin Wall!"
It is said that Cypher Hawk once crossed the Origin Wall to reach the other side, but eventually returned to this chaotic yet vibrant multidimensional world.

Many people yearn to learn from him what secrets lie behind the Wall of Origin, but it is a merciless black hole, burying as many people as it takes in.

But the big shots have plenty of patience, and they eventually figured it all out.

Those souls lost in the void quadrant.
They all possess hidden remnants from 'behind the wall.' Once enough lost souls are found, and more fragments of the Origin Wall are obtained, the powerful figures will eventually uncover what lies behind that wall that isolates all things.

The pirate captain fell silent.

Frustrated by his secret being exposed, he downed the sinful wine on the table in one gulp, then sighed and said:

"Damn it, how did a perfectly good infiltration mission turn out like this? I was originally planning to have some fun with the idiot big shots behind you, but now you've actually set your sights on my 'little fellow villagers'?"
Ugh.
Every great villain has a bottom line, and unfortunately, you just stepped on it. Although I don't like it either, my bottom line is incredibly delicate, and you've made me scream in pain as you've trampled on it. And I'm the kind of person who's very protective of my own!

"Now, I can't let you live!"

"???"

The mysterious spirits realized something was wrong and turned to run, but the moment they rushed out of the mysterious house, they froze on the spot as if struck by lightning.

Before them stood the Brotherhood members, led by a blood-soaked Cypher Hawke, even though each of them was barely alive. The most pitiful logistics member, Mason, was being carried on Diakum's back; he had been beaten so badly in the Civil War that his fate was unknown.

Although each of them was bruised and battered and looked utterly intimidating, at this moment, they possessed a strong sense of shared hatred for a common enemy.

"This is really dangerous."

The Void Lord, his clothes torn to shreds, leaned on the screaming Judah, the demonic sword, and sighed:

"Despite all our precautions, we still couldn't prevent it. Sure enough, other forces noticed the strange behavior of those lost souls. And thinking about it more deeply, some of our 'fellow villagers' may have already fallen into their hands and are being tortured."

"This is the result of you not doing your jobs well!"

The tyrant, cigar in mouth, wiped the blood from his face and scolded:

"I risked my life at the gambling table every day to raise funds for your operation, and this is how you do things? You can't even protect a group of fellow villagers. Do you, your seniors, really have no shame at all?"

Hey!
Blake Shaw, get out here!

How did you manage to steal those fragments from my wives? Are you fucking cheating on me?

"How could I dare? Your wives are all incredibly skilled fighters. When I'm with them, I feel like a pathetic pretty boy who's fallen into a group of female hooligans. Ugh, I'm finally starting to understand why you moved out and only come home two or three times a month."

Being guarded by a pack of she-wolves like that, your kidneys must be made of adamantium.

The scumbag pirate had appeared at the doorway sometime earlier, leaning against the threshold with a jug of wine in his hand, and said smugly:

"But you and your husband are definitely having relationship problems. My best friends have given me a lot of juicy gossip about this, and do you think now is the time to talk about this?"

They're blatantly stealing our Brotherhood's food, and they're doing it openly. I told you, the low efficiency of salvaging Lost Souls in the Void Quadrant a few years ago was definitely not my fault.
It turns out that we have 'competitors' doing the same thing!
So, what will happen to those poor young people from our village who were arrested?

"Of course, it's to save them! Those lost souls who have been abducted are crying out for help. As a warrior of light of justice, how can I ignore them?"

Diakum flicked his fingers, conjuring a sword of light that unleashed the aura of heavenly reckoning. He flicked his nearly severed tail and said in a deep voice:

"I swear I will save them, not one less! It's great that I have work to do as soon as I get back."
