6. First Fleet, go!

The world of Draenor, once the Shattered Lands, is now one of the two lines of defense of the Supreme Home Star of Azeroth, due to the existence of the Dark Gate, a near-natural spatial rift, the Azeroth Federation has invested unimaginable resources into this world, filling almost every inch of the available land with traction structures, and forcibly reorganizing the Broken Continent.

The other line of defense is located in Shakan, which is now replaced by the Altveth Empire, the original Shakan King died more than 1,700 years ago, but thanks to the good relations he maintained with the Azeroth civilization during his tenure, after his death, the Artevez Empire was officially accepted into the then nascent Azeroth Commonwealth, becoming one of the first civilizations to be accepted.

Now the Shakan civilization rules a large star region, which is simply unimaginable for them in the past, of course, the current Shakan people have long regarded themselves as a part of the Azeroth civilization, for them, the supreme home planet is similar to their homeland.

The reason why these two places can be called the defense line is that they are also starports where the First and Fourth Fleets are docked, and the Second and Third Fleets are anchored on both sides of the planet's synchronous orbit of the supreme home planet, which is equivalent to the role of the Guards.

The First to Fourth Fleets are not as simple as the permanent armies of each major star region, they have inherited the name of the original fleet, and they have also inherited their history and weight, and these four fleets are no longer the original pitiful raid fleet composed of 15 main warships, each fleet consists of 154 "Whale Shark-class" assault starships, 25 "Sea Beast-class" spiritual attack ships, 15 "Devil Ray-class" comprehensive command starships, 24 supply ships and 20 medical ships, and 4 "Leviathan-class" Composed of super flagships, absolute behemoths.

Each fleet, with more than 15 ground crews and combatants, and 5% of the Federation's annual tax revenue was invested in the construction of these four fleets, which was enough to fill 10 Azeroths in the same denomination of taxes paid from the 137 major star sectors.

This kind of investment, almost regardless of the cost, has created four absolutely terrifying monster-level fleets, each of which can guarantee the destruction of any major star region without support, and after the real fleet, there is no grass, which can be called the four sharpest swords in the hands of the Federation.

It is precisely because of the existence of these four almost invincible fleets that the Federation can subdue hundreds of civilizations with completely different civilization habits and customs internally, and externally almost single-handedly resist the Burning Legion's outpouring attack, and occasionally fight with the mysterious Void forces.

In the 2000-year history, the four fleets have never been defeated after the battle when they retreated from Argus, but that retreat has become a dark history shared by successive commanders of the four fleets.

Marshal Dalyan's phrase "Today, we have become cowards." It was a shame that almost every commander kept in mind, and they didn't want to wash it away all the time, but in the year 2000, they fought only a handful of times with Sargeras's personal guard fleet, and each time it was an undefeated scene, which made the four fleets even more angry.

They were so eager for a victory, and it was precisely under the impetus of this will that for 2,000 years, these four swords have never been dulled for even a minute or a second.

"Dididi"

In the Draenor World, Char Star Harbor, the secret immigration hall, the warning sound on behalf of the entry of foreign visitors made the guards in the hall pick up their weapons for the first time, but when the teleportation pillar opened, the tall figure that greeted them made them straighten up.

"Welcome, Your Excellency Marshal!"

In the loud greeting of the guards, Kuvir Urien, who had been dressed all his life, strode out of the teleportation pillar, and on his shoulders, the golden epaulettes representing the marshal shone in the light of the hall, and he carried his command knife in his hand, and the well-made and heavy marshal's uniform was properly made without a trace of wrinkles, just like the members of the Urion in the past, Cuville was a very image-oriented person.

This is also the bearing that a royal family should have, although he is not the emperor of the contemporary Stormwind Empire, but every time he travels, he also represents the majesty of the Stormwind royal family that rules the 7 major star regions, he has long been accustomed to this kind of necessary actions to show his majesty on various scenes, but in addition to these, Kuwell is also a very good commander and warrior.

Born into a top-notch family of blood nobles, he is destined to give more than his peers, to prove that he is better than 99% of his peers, to set off the sinking glory.

Today, however, Marshal Cuville is not the only big man who has stepped out of the teleportation pillar, behind him are Field Marshal Greymane from the Second Fleet, Field Marshal Tarantina Sunstrider from the Third Fleet, and Field Marshal Derek Prodmore from the Fourth Fleet.

Behind them, the guards of their respective fleets, nearly a hundred of them packed the hall.

At this moment, all the staff in the entire hall were stunned, the whole four marshals were concentrated in Char Star Harbor at the same time, and the Titans were on it, could it be that the Dark Lord Sargeras personally called?

You must know that even the joint rebellion of the 13 major star regions before 547 only dispatched the third and fourth fleets, but what surprised these staff even more was still to come.

After the four marshals walked out of the teleportation pillar, they did not leave immediately, but stood on both sides of the teleportation pillar with the etiquette of a junior, and the next moment, the teleporters' pillars of light turned from white to a pale gold in vain, just like the gate of heaven in myths and legends.

"Salute!"

As soon as Kuville gave the order, the four marshals and the surrounding guards saluted in unison, and then a tall figure walked out of the discolored portal, he was wearing the old armor of 2000 years ago, he looked extremely heroic, but his skin was shining with a faint golden light, and his face was no different from that of ordinary humans, except for the long sword behind his back.

It was a broken blade, and the gentle light made up the first half of it.

At this moment, someone with sharp eyes recognized the identity of the person who walked out of the portal, it was a little girl who liked to read ancient myths, she screamed, and fainted excitedly, but the voice echoed back and forth in the quiet hall.

"That's... The first commander of the First Fleet, Marshal Tulayan!"

Yes, the one who walked out of the portal was Tulayan, who had been completely heroized, and no matter how great a hero could not escape the ravages of time, fortunately, in the era of their old age, it was the era when the Ulduar system was completely rebuilt, and after Odin's proposal was agreed by Elune, in the years after that era, those who had made outstanding contributions to Azeroth would exist as heroic spirits and return to the Valhalla in Ulduar after death.

It was the beginning of the second life, but as the price of rebirth, they could no longer meddle in worldly affairs other than foreign wars, but each Heroic Spirit has its own legendary story, so although ordinary people may not be able to see the real Heroic Spirit even once in their lifetime, these legends who continue to guard the Supreme Home Star in the form of Heroic Spirits are truly the most admirable beings in the entire Azeroth Federation.

Almost every one of them represents a glorious past.

After Tulayan, there was another Heroic Spirit, who looked younger than Tulayan, but when he appeared, Marshal Kuvier was so excited that he shed tears on the spot.

It was the man who single-handedly pushed the glory of the Ureon family to the highest point of history, the greatest emperor of the Stormwind Empire, and his grandfather, Anduin Urien, was an ancient figure who was active between 1300 and 1800 years ago.

The last one to walk out of the portal was no longer a Heroic Spirit, but a middle-aged Quel'Salas Elf with excellent demeanor, his golden hair mixed with a touch of gray and white, and the crimson robe on his body was so conspicuous.

Tarantina, the famous "Iron Marshal", bowed respectfully when she saw him, and the middle-aged elf nodded a little indifferently and ignored it.

Kael'thas Sunchaser, the only surviving ancient person on the Supreme Home Planet, the supreme ruler of the 12 major star regions, after the death of his friends one by one, this majesty has become much lonelier, and even his temper has become quite indifferent, and his daughter Tarantina has long been accustomed to her father's indifferent attitude, so naturally she will not have any complaints.

At the end of the day, the mood is getting more and more weird, which is an inevitable outcome for all immortals, and Kael'thas has changed quite mildly.

The appearance of these three heavyweights made the whole hall silent, and they did not want to waste too much time, so they were soon escorted by the guards to the landing area of the First Fleet, which was ready to depart, where all the captains and commanders of the First Fleet who had received the order stood in the landing area in battle uniforms.

Five minutes later, Anduin Ureon issued a top-secret battle order, the former little prince had lived his fate as a mortal in the tempering of time, and now he existed in Azeroth as an immortal heroic spirit.

The former bravery has turned into a legendary story that exists in history, and what has been precipitated is that he is getting closer to his father, and the same temperament as his mentor, the heroic spirits are not idle, in fact, in the development of the Federation and major battle operations, 70% of the commanders are these immortal heroic spirits, in areas unknown to mortals, these greats, are still in their own way, serving the world they love.

"Soldiers of the First Fleet!"

Anduin's voice rang out in the landing area, followed by the sound of a salute, and looking at the legion in front of him as sharp as a sheathed blade, Anduin nodded in satisfaction, his voice becoming more and more solemn.

"You all know me, 1400 years ago, I led the First Fleet in 30 years, opened up 17 star sectors, defeated tens of millions of opponents, that was the most glorious moment of my life, at the end of the giant snake star sector, there is still the watch tower we erected there, I am proud of the First Legion! I believe that this fleet will also be proud of me!"

"I believe that all of us here have not forgotten our day of shame, the darkest day in all of Azeroth, the day when we abandoned the great fighters and evacuated Argus, 2,000 years ago, but our cowardly name is still not washed away... This is an eternal disgrace to the four fleets. ”

"But today, we're going to wash some of it!"

"Today, I, Marshal Tulayan, Your Majesty Kael'thas, will lead the First Fleet to the distant Pruk Star Sector, where we will pick up a great being who has lost his homeland for 2,000 years, yes, the great being who was left alone in the Land of Despair for the sake of our civilization to fight against the Dark Titans!"

A hint of nostalgia appeared in Anduin's eyes,

"That is my mentor, the former world manager of Azeroth, the stalker who single-handedly carried the fate of the whole world on his shoulders, the one who blocked all the darkness for us, so that we could enjoy the light, the world owes him so much, even after 2000, we still cannot let this bleak fate fall on this great one. ”

"We will return to Azeroth with his pride and glory, and we will bring a happy end to the regrets of the past. ”

"Now, in the name of the World Parliament of Ulduar!"

"Click!"

Countless voices of feet close together rang out in the landing zone, and Anduin opened a scroll covered with the seals of the major forces from his hand and read it aloud.

"Order all members of the First Fleet to go to the Puruk Star Zone, the Star of Origin, as fast as possible, to retrieve the lost world manager Dick Blonzan Don, in the name of Elune, the spirit of the world of Azeroth, Iona, the spirit of life, and Argus, the spirit of the earth, must complete the mission, even if it is fought to the last man, at all costs!"

This extremely strong order awe-inspiring all the commanders present, who immediately realized that this would be a scene that would go down in history.

An hour later, in the command hall of the Storm Fortress, the flagship of the First Fleet in Char Star Harbor, Tulayan sat in his familiar position, looking out of the porthole at the starry sky that he had seen countless times, but each time he was fascinated, he took a deep breath and reached out to stroke his captain's hat.

Memories of the past and everything he had experienced welled up in his mind, and after becoming a Heroic Spirit, he had not experienced such excitement and apprehension for a long time, his hands habitually resting on the armrests, and a deep voice that spread throughout the fleet's communication channels at this moment.

"First Fleet!Target Pruk Star Zone, weapon system open, Void Jump ready!"

"We... Set sail!"
