Axi was a woman of her word; she said she'd get wings, and she got wings. She manipulated the Wind Elementals to condense a pair of wings for herself. At first, they resembled dragon wings, but they were terribly ugly, so she switched to bird wings. She specifically chose white, making them look very beautiful.
Then she leaped from the floating island, using her wings to fly. When she first tried flying, she couldn't control her wings well, but with the air currents, she didn't have to worry about crashing to her death.
After a few days of novelty wore off, Axi felt that her wings were too large. Although her flight speed was fast, it still couldn't exceed the speed of magic. And just as Gale said, turning was very clumsy. Flying in the sky was easy, but flying within Sky City, she would easily hit things.
So, she modified her wings again, changing them to insect wings. At first, they were butterfly wings, but she found them clumsy. Finally, she tried bee wings, but found them too slow.
Having no other option, she decided not to completely imitate them. She created six long, strip-shaped wings, four for flying and two for turning. After trying them, she found the effect to be excellent.
After a few days of modifications, Axi, with her wings, flew around Sky City, quickly becoming proficient in using them to fly.
Finally, she flew in front of Gale, proudly saying, "Father, don't my wings look good?"
"Flashy!"
Gale's speechless retort made Axi very unhappy. She ran to his side, shaking his arm, "Father..."
Gale reluctantly said, "They look good."
"Hehe, I knew they looked good." Axi happily flew a few circles around Gale, showcasing her excellent aerial turning ability.
However, this behavior only made Gale more speechless. He thought to himself: I must keep a close eye on her, otherwise, with her brain, she might be abducted by some villain.
But what worried Gale even more was Axi. Axi's brain wasn't much better than Axi's, and she was far away in Northrend. What if something happened...
At this time, Axi's team was at Ursoc's Fortress, helping the Bearman resist the Drakkari Troll's attack.
The Drakkari Troll, with their rebellious nature, had barely been peaceful for long before launching an attack on Ursoc's Fortress.
They feared Gale, but in these years, Gale's attention to Northrend had not been strong. Northrend was not the traditional territory of the Kaldorei Empire. Although it maintained numerous fortresses, the only areas truly occupied by the Kaldorei Empire were Darkmoon City and the southern Howling Fjord.
The ZulDrak region had already been given to the Bearman by Gale. Aside from commercial trade, the Kaldorei rarely set foot in the Bearman's territory.
The Drakkari Troll detected this situation and immediately concluded that their current enemy was the Bearman. As old rivals, they were not afraid of the Bearman, even with two demigods backing them.
Therefore, after recuperating, the Drakkari Troll boldly launched an attack on Ursoc's Fortress, wanting to reclaim their land.
The two sides had been fighting for two or three years, with the war remaining in a stalemate. The Drakkari Troll suffered heavy casualties, but the Bearman were not doing much better. If not for Ursoc's Fortress as a stronghold, they would probably have retreated to Grizzly Hills.
Just then, Axi's team arrived in Northrend. Axi heard that the Bearman were at war with the Drakkari Troll and immediately, filled with a sense of justice, led her team to provide support.
She wasn't trying to cause trouble for Gale. Rather, her team included the future chieftain of the Whispersong clan. For Axi, adventure team members were family, and helping family meant giving her all.
Standing on the city walls of Ursoc's Fortress, Axi's legendary Wind Power continuously fired. Each arrow could easily take a Drakkari Troll's life. Even for a Mammoth, Axi could condense a giant ice crystal arrow to take it down.
Yī Nǔ Tè Nalarex cast a mass healing spell, healing a group of injured Bearman, allowing them to quickly return to the battlefield.
Sorey Whispersong's Chain Lightning could clear out a group of Drakkari Troll, creating a vacuum zone on the battlefield.
Lete Highmountain reinforced back and forth on the city walls. Wherever a Troll climbed the wall, he would appear. His Greed Hydra danced with formidable power, slaying every Troll who dared to climb the wall.
Adal Riverwind released a mist. Any corpses within the mist, whether Troll or Bearman, would rise from the ground and launch a counter-charge against the Trolls.
The Trolls had seen all kinds of fighting styles, but they had never seen a method of raising corpses to put them into battle. Only the legendary evil god Hakkar was said to possess the ability to manipulate corpses. Had the Bearman summoned Hakkar back?
With fear in their hearts, the Trolls chose to retreat. Even Adal himself had not expected the Trolls to retreat so easily.
As a demigod, Ursoc greatly disliked necromancy, believing it to be a desecration of the dead. However, Axi's team had provided great help, so Ursoc did not turn hostile but chose to politely escort them out of Ursoc's Fortress.
This situation made Axi very unhappy, but Adal quickly understood.
"Power itself is neither right nor wrong; it is the person who wields it that is right or wrong."
This was a phrase Gale often said, and it was also a motto revered by the Lich.
Axi quickly adjusted her mood. Since the Bearman didn't welcome them, they would go help elsewhere.
The battles in Northrend were not limited to this. Dragons and Faceless One were also fighting. Yogg-Saron was sealed, and the Faceless One of AhnQiraj began to work on rescuing Yogg-Saron.
But the first thing they had to do was defeat the Dragons outside the city. Otherwise, they wouldn't even be able to step out of AhnQiraj, let alone rescue Yogg-Saron.
The Faceless One prepared to Stealth out, but they were discovered by the Red Dragon. To prevent the Faceless One from escaping, the Red Dragon launched a probing attack on AhnQiraj.
Seeing their whereabouts exposed, the Faceless One could only force their way out.
After the War of the Ancients and the War of Ulduar, the number of Red Dragon had greatly decreased. Coupled with the need to guard Dragonblight and patrol various parts of the world, the number of Red Dragon guarding AhnQiraj was far fewer than the Faceless One.
To prevent the Faceless One from escaping, the Red Dragon requested reinforcements from the Blue Dragon.
The construction of The Nexus was almost complete, and Malygos could also send some Blue Dragon to help his kin. However, facing the Faceless One, who were determined to escape, their numbers were still severely insufficient.
In these past few months, at least dozens of Faceless One had escaped. This made the Dragons very agitated, and they had no choice but to request aid from the Kaldorei Empire.
However, it would take some time for the Kaldorei Empire's army to arrive.
Axi's team arrived at AhnQiraj at this time. The Blue Dragon, seeing Gale's daughter, immediately had an idea. They forged a legendary crystal bow and presented it to Axi, asking her to lead her team to hunt the Faceless One.
Axi was very happy. Her father had been too busy these past few years to forge a divine artifact for her, only modifying and upgrading a Wind Power crossbow. But she didn't like using crossbows; she preferred bows.
The crystal bow gifted by the Blue Dragon was not only powerful but also a frost-attributed divine artifact, making it perfectly suited for her to use.
She promised the Blue Dragon that she would absolutely not let any Faceless One escape, and then excitedly led her adventure team to pursue the Faceless One.
This greatly surprised Garrosh, who arrived shortly after, and he immediately dispatched Nasha to lead the Hippogryph cavalry to find Axi.
