Chapter 697: Goblin's investment vision

After repelling the Naga's attack in the southern waters of the Zandalar Islands, the rest of the voyage went smoothly without encountering any moths.

This attack caused Sharlayan to change the original plan, and the priority of summoning Neptulon, the tide hunter, was greatly advanced.

With the assistance of Tinagosa and Jaina, Sharlayan sent the relevant proposals back to Quel'Thalas for Kael'thas to review.

After receiving the document "sent" by Sharlayan, and flipping through it roughly, Kael'thas showed a pensive look on his face.

Quel'Thalas has never had any contact with the Dark Iron dwarves, but has maintained normal trade with the Bronzebeard and Wildhammer dwarves.

Kael'thas was born when the War of the Three Hammers took place, and he can be said to have witnessed the dwarven civil war that split the kingdom of Khaz Modan.

In the beginning, the princes of the three clans were simply fighting for the succession of the king of the mountain, and there was no enmity between them other than conflicts of interest.

The Wildhammer and Bronzebeard dwarves were completely angered by the Iron Queen's perverse behavior.

This witch who practiced mysterious witchcraft cursed Grim Batol, the old capital of the Wildhammer dwarves. For a long time, the city was filled with a dark and terrifying atmosphere, and it was impossible to live in it.

The Wildhammer dwarves, who had lost their capital, were furious. Prince Caderos of the Wildhammer quickly made peace with Prince Madoran Bronzebeard, who had conflicts before. Victory at the Battle of the Three Hammers.

Through the information that Sharlayan voluntarily submitted, Kael'thas learned some secret information behind the War of the Three Hammers that was not known to ordinary people.

The Black Iron Queen Modgude is indeed a powerful witch, but her strength does not come only from herself, but more from the power of a magic weapon with self-awareness.

This magic weapon is called Xalatas Blade of the Dark Empire, and the remnant soul of an ancient **** resides in the weapon.

After abandoning the useless Modgud, Xal'atath found a new successor, and Kael'thas had also heard of her name.

One of the bishops of the Church of the Holy Light, Natalie Serling.

Sharlayan told Kael'thas in detail the origin of the Blade of the Dark Empire and the identities of its previous holders in an earlier report.

Yes, just the holder, not the owner.

Those who have possessed Xal'atath so far have all been its slaves, tossed around by this dangerous weapon.

There is only one real master of Xalatas, and that is the black dragon princess, Onyxia, who now holds the blade of the Dark Empire.

Unlike the previous holders of the Blade of the Dark Empire, Onyxia will not be affected by Xal'atath because of the seal imposed by Azadas, and will only take the initiative to fight with it when needed. Get in touch with the remnant soul.

After reading Sharlayan's account of the true history of the Dark Iron dwarves, Kael'thas felt a little more sympathy for those poor people who had been enslaved by the fire elemental.

But that's all.

Sympathy stems from Kael'thas's kind nature, but now that he is the king of a country, he must consider his own national interests.

After receiving Sharlayan's proposal, Kael'thas first had to consider what benefits Quel'Thalas could bring to Quel'Thalas by courting the Dark Iron dwarves.

After the proposal was submitted and returned to China, Sharlayan did not receive a follow-up reply from Kael'thas for the time being.

It will take some time for the Sun King and his cabinet officials to carefully consider the pros and cons of establishing a surreptitious connection with the Dark Iron dwarves to avoid offending the Bronzebeard and Wildhammer dwarves.

In October 2012 at Black Gate, the passenger ship that Sharlayan and others took finally docked at the pier of Ratchet City.

The night elves are still busy developing the Sholazar Basin and fighting the Naga bandits on the route, so they don't have the extra energy to manage the trade route connecting the Eastern Kingdoms.

Today, the exchanges between the eastern and western continents are not close enough, and Ratchet City, a port city established by the Goblin Steamwheedle Consortium, is still relatively deserted.

Due to some force majeure accidents encountered on the way, the cross-sea voyage took nearly 2 months, which was longer than originally expected.

Valeera and Stellagosa arrived in Stranglethorn Vale before Sharlayan, and had a preliminary exchange with the Steamwheedle Consortium.

Knowing from Valeera that the Marquis of Deep Shadow will visit Ratchet City in the near future, the envoys of the Steamwheedle Consortium hurriedly set off from Booty Bay on a speedboat, and delivered the news to Sharlayne before Sharlayan arrived later. Gazlowe, Lord of Ratchet City.

When the passenger ship that Sarayan and the others were on boarded at the port, Gazlowe personally rushed to the pier to greet them, and even laid a red carpet on the wooden pier exaggeratedly.

Many people in the barrage describe goblins as upstarts who rely on oil to make a fortune, and everything is only for profit.

Having personally experienced Gazlowe's exaggerated welcoming ceremony, Sharlayan agreed with this view a lot.

Sharlayan's visit this time is not as a nobleman of Quel'Thalas or as a senior adviser to the Sun King, it is just a private action, and he does not want to cause a commotion.

The flattering was slapped on the horse's leg, and the smiling Gazlowe didn't take it seriously. He nodded and humbly accepted Salayan's suggestion, and waved people to remove those exaggerated welcome ceremonies.

"Marquis of Deep Shadow, the boss wanted to find an opportunity to meet you a long time ago, but unfortunately, he has not been able to do so."

Sharlayan smiled noncommittally: "Steamwold, the trade prince of Steamwheedle? Heh~ Don't dare to relax when talking about business with goblins. If you are not careful, you will be taken into the ditch. Of course, you have to wait a long time before the official meeting." Make some preparations."

Stremwyder is the trade prince of the Steamwheedle Consortium, and also holds a pivotal position in the goblin clan. At this time, he is in Booty Bay on the other side of the sea, negotiating business with Valeera, who represents Sharlayan.

The night elves are the masters of the Kalimdor continent, and they occupy the most fertile territory in Kalimdor.

As we all know, the night elves are a relatively xenophobic race, and no country or race can enter their territory at will without permission, otherwise...the consequences will be at your own risk.

The Kalimdor continent is on the east coast of the endless sea, and there are not many deep-water ports suitable for establishing trade routes.

Excluding the Azshara region that has long been taken into the bag by the night elves, there is only the red land south of Azshara that has not yet been named, and the barren land further south, Dustwallow Marsh, and The South Seaport of Tanaris developed by Erthalas.

Dustwallow Marsh, as the name suggests, is a dangerous swamp.

There are no intelligent creatures in this swamp, and the establishment of a transportation route to the outside of the swamp will inevitably consume huge costs. Even a normal person would not choose to build a port here.

[Jianna:? 】

In the same way, the same is true for the red land named Durotar in the future of the original history.

Because the land is too barren to grow food, there are only a small number of scattered wild boars settled in the area, which is not suitable for establishing long-term trade routes.

Under the premise that the South Sea Port is occupied by the oil transportation route of the high elves, the best choice for the Steamwheedle Consortium to establish a port is the Barren Land~www.readwn.com~ The Barren Land is one of the main battlefields during the War of the Ancients , is also the place where the wild boar demigod Agamaggan fell.

According to legend, the brave Agamaggan killed countless demons on this land, and finally died of exhaustion.

The fel blood of those demons seeped into the land, causing the once lush central wilderness to become the desolate place it is today.

By the way, the ancient dark night empire once established a city in the central wilderness...that is, the barren land. Its name was Senlaro, which was also translated as Zenlelor.

However, Danmaku said that he has never seen the ruins of this ancient night elf city in the Barrens. It is not known whether it sank into the sea when the sky collapsed or was completely destroyed in the War of the Ancients.

The natural resources of the Barrens are indeed not rich enough, but the geographical location of this vast central plain extends in all directions. The goblins of the Steamwheedle Consortium believe that this place will become an important transit point for the Kalimdor continent in the future.

The north of the Barrens is directly connected to Ashenvale, the core territory of the night elves, the new home of the tauren to the west is Mulgore, and the south leads to Thousand Needles.

Considering the Steamwheedle Consortium's presence in Shimmering Steppes and Tanaris, it's no surprise that a port is established along the eastern coast of the Barrens.

In terms of investment, even with the help of the barrage, Sharlayan, who was driving the future vision, had to admire Strem Wilder's vision. Ratchet City would definitely become an important trading port connecting the east and west continents in the future.

Putting aside the future development of Ratchet City for the time being, after following Gazlowe to his nouveau riche-style luxury and high-profile city lord's mansion, Sarlayan got straight to the point.

"Mr. Gazlowe, I will not go around and ask directly."

"Did a master mage from the Eastern Kingdom visit Ratchet City recently?"
