12. Scenery of Hot Sand Harbor
The southern part of Kalimdor has been a desert since the dawn of history. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info
From Silisus to Tanaris, and even in the mysterious city of Audam, it has been covered with yellow sand, which is a barren landscape, but it does not mean that there is no life there, in fact, in those deserts, there are hidden secrets that have been handed down from eternity.
They have been buried in the yellow sand by time, a thousand years after a thousand years, waiting for future generations to discover.
But there are other things besides secrets, such as trolls all over the world, and a tribe of trolls that is said to have been handed down from the time of Zandalara, Sandfury, entrenched in the yellow sands of Tanaris.
There are also goblins, where the headquarters of the Hot Sand Harbor Company is located, and the goblins have built a large station called Gakison, and no one knows what business these goblins are doing here, but judging from the news from the dark world, the original purpose of these goblins should be to come here for a legendary troll artifact.
And then like any story about goblins, eventually they found a way to make money, so artifacts and all that stuff was left behind.
"Believe me, Mr. Earl, the Hot Sand Port Trading Company is not a good partner, in fact, in this desolate place, except for the hot sand port is still a little useful, the other buildings seem to me to be a piece of garbage, completely unworthy of a person of your status, so you can come and rest in my big villa in the Glitter Plains, where the enjoyment is top-notch except for the exciting racing races!"
Goblin Lauren wore his gown, sat next to Dick and chattered about the playground he had invested in the Flash Plains, unfortunately, Dick didn't listen much, in fact, the Paladin took the time to go on a long trip alone this time, there was an important promise to fulfill, so he didn't have much time to enjoy the Flash Plains.
"Alright, Lauren, let me be quiet!"
Dick waved his hand and motioned for the goblins to stop, "If you can, you'd better help me get Senxia over." ”
Lauren shrugged his shoulders, as a polite goblin gentleman, he was happy to serve the higher-ups, especially a big man like the Earl of the North, so he jumped out of his chair and walked out briskly.
A few minutes later, dressed in a black tuxedo and a white shirt trimmed with lace trims, dressed like a pirate captain at all, Senxia walked in briskly and stood respectfully beside Dick.
"You're looking for me?"
Dick rubbed the corners of his brows, the long voyage made him a little tired, and more importantly, the responsibility on his shoulders, in return for retrieving the fragments of the blue scepter that was lost due to the mistake of the weak chicken blue dragon, the still weak Theramore will be exempted from the heavy collection of allied supplies, and only need to send an army when the war comes.
Although Kalia has repeatedly said that Dick does not need to make such a choice, for Theramore, who will inevitably lose next year's food harvest due to the insect plague, this material collection is still too heavy, besides, he will have to face the clone of the Fire Demon King sooner or later anyway, it is better to take this opportunity to get everything done.
"How long will it take to get to Hot Sand Harbor?"
Dick asked, and Sensha pulled a delicate silver pocket watch from his bosom, looked at it, and then replied,
"In 1 hour at most, you can see the port of Hot Sand Harbor, seriously, don't you need me to accompany you for the rest of the journey?"
"You still have your things to do. ”
The paladin said to Senxia, "Don't forget the incident I told you before, it's been 2 years, although there has been some progress, about the sea route that can enter the closed Audam, I know it is difficult, but you must find him in the near future!"
In the past two years, the body of the famous "Dark Lord" in the sea of the Eastern Continent trembled, and the special energy gushing out of his body was manipulating his body under Dick's will, it was a gift, but it was also a bondage.
That thing made him alone in the cunning pirate community, known as the "Dark Lord", because all the opponents who met him would be reduced to a wreck under the black shadow of death, but for Mori Xia, there was always a tall black shadow standing behind him, a shadow he could not even think of surpassing.
"Yes, I'll find that sea route as fast as I can!"
Senxia replied in a loud voice, and Dick nodded, signaling that he could go out.
The Dark Lord stepped out of the cabin, and beyond the blue sea and blue sky was a cloudless sky, the most beautiful scenery for someone who had never seen the sea, but for someone like Senxia who was destined to wander the sea for the rest of his life, there was nothing more annoying than this.
Even the roaring storm, the sight of black clouds in the sky is better than this tired scenery.
"Speed up, scumbags, you must be at Hot Sand Harbor in 40 minutes!"
Mori Xia's face was full of gloom and shouted to the busy, trembling pirate sailors, the flagship he violently snatched from the Difia thieves was a rare wooden + iron hull battleship, and on the shell of the battleship, it was painted with the black logo of Mori Xia's unique vines and skeletons.
Although compared to the real sea overlord like the "Sea King", the Dark Lord is like a toddler, but in the eyes of other pirates, the Dark Lord has a cruel style, and has at least 100 dwarven string cannons, but he is an unknown evil star.
The Dark Lord represents the rise of a new pirate force in the Wild West.
"But Captain, it's impossible for us to reach Hot Sand Harbor in 40 minutes! It's very windy and rough now! If you increase your speed, the Dark Lord will be in danger of tipping over!"
The navigator whispered to Mori Xia, who exuded a cold aura all over his body, and the captain turned his head, and a black, hideous vine sprang out from his outstretched left index finger, wrapped around the navigator's neck like a snake,
"What did you say? Mr. Gibbs, I didn't hear you, say it again!"
The navigator from Gilneth shuddered, and rumors about witches and dark magic in the countryside of Gilneth surged through his mind, and he immediately shouted,
"I said, no problem, Captain, we can get to Hot Sand Harbor in 35 minutes!"
"Very well, Mr. Gibbs, this ship needs someone as capable as you!"
Senxia patted the frightened navigator on the chest, he straightened his collar, and walked into his captain's room with a command knife inlaid with gems, and the other frightened pirates seemed to come alive at this moment, but in the roar of Gibbs, they quickly got busy, and when the four mainsails were raised, the already fast "Dark Lord" accelerated again, under the blue sea and blue sky, and rode the wind and waves towards the hot sand port.
Hot Sand Harbor, which is just an abandoned, uninhabited port in the game, but in the real world, as the only large dock still in use at the southern end of Kalimdor, it is permanently docked here with merchant ships belonging to the Hot Sand Port Trading Company, and other pirate ships that are allowed to dock by the goblins, Hot Sand Harbor is chaotic, with more than 4,000 scum and black market merchants of various clans active here, as well as the power of the Wasteland horse thieves native to Tanaris.
Even the goblins who built the hot sand harbor can't manage it now, where gold and violence are the only truth, and identity or anything is completely useless.
As the Dark Lord entered the harbor, there was a burst of roars and shouts from the other merchant ships and pirate ships, and since his rise, the Dark Lord Senxia had attacked almost all living creatures on the surface of the sea indiscriminately, which made his reputation stink, and everyone hated him and his ship that deserved to go to hell.
But just after the ship stopped, a dense black net composed entirely of black vines quickly gathered on the deck of the nearest pirate ship, and the sucking sound of the scalp-numbing buffalo drinking water resounded through the dock, except for those pirates who saw that the situation was not good and jumped into the sea to pick up a life, the small sailing ship, was already as silent as death.
All the noise and swearing ceased at this moment.
The masked paladin strode out of the cabin, Senxia humbly laid out the red carpet for Dick to get off the ship, Dick didn't care, he patted Senxia on the shoulder, and then strode down the Dark Lord, and soon disappeared into the alley of Hot Sand Harbor in the frightened onlookers of everyone on the dock.
Senxia stood at the bow of the Dark Lord's ship that had been molded into the head of the demon, and looked indifferently at the small sailing ship that had been completely occupied by his crew,
"Mr. Gibbs, go replenish fresh water and food, we'll set off in 2 hours, given your excellent ability, you have 1 hour to recruit a crew here for you, and the ship is yours!"
The despondent navigator's eyes widened, and they all said that Captain Senxia was an evil and generous fellow, and this time he had thoroughly seen the generosity of the Dark Lord, a good ship that was still intact, and sent it away without blinking an eye!
However, he was still a little apprehensive, and after a few minutes, he asked in a low voice,
"Mr. Captain, may I ask where we are going this time? You know, I'm not very familiar with the waters of Kalimdor..."
"We're going to the end of the world!"
Senxia touched his trimmed two beautiful mustaches, he squinted his eyes and looked at the bustling hot sand port,
"If you don't think you're up to the task, you'd better find me a competent navigator!"
Gibbs immediately patted his chest,
"Look, Captain, I know there's a down-and-out fellow, a bad gambler, or a hellish bastard in this harbor, but he's lived in this sea for at least 20 years! I'll get him!"
"Huh? Kind of interesting, what's his name?"
"His name is Tony Doublefang, he's a troll, and he's said to have mastered mystical sorcery, so I'm sure he'll be the best navigator ever!"
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Dick didn't have time to pay attention to what Senxia did, as the second force he planted in the dark world after the Black Iron Bar, he also undertook Dick's secret mission in the past 2 years, as long as Senxia didn't die to provoke Kul Tiras's fleet, he could do whatever he did in the sea merchant, and the things in the dark world would be left to the people of the dark world to do, the paladin was the guy who wanted to save the world, how could the world play with those mice.
Right now, he was riding on the galloping war horse Star, following the direction of his memory, across the Great Desert of Tanaris, preparing to enter Silisus directly.
Although he was well aware that there was a laboratory left behind by the Titans in the Angolo crater, surrounded by two deserts, and a boundary gate that could travel through space to the hinterland of Northrend in the Dark Continent, he didn't have the time to explore those things right now.
And when he crossed the desert, Dick also saw the southernmost part of the desert, the nest that had already formed, the real big nest, and even the desert was transformed by those insects into a disgusting fungus blanket and a dark red, creeping cell and a crack in the earth.
This discovery worries the paladins, as it would not be a problem if the bugs poured out of their nests and swept across the whole of Tanaris, and that it was a real threat to cross the flash plains north of Tanaris to reach Theramore.
And the insects are constantly increasing the size of the hive, and in the game, the insect tide, named the Great Rift, will eventually devour one-third of the Great Thanaris Desert, becoming a nightmare for goblins and trolls.
Even after the defeat of the Worm Man, the hive here actually continues to multiply, and the Worm Man is really an unimaginable life.
With a hiss of the stars, Dick, who had been in the air for a whole day, felt the wind and sand more scorching and unforgiving than the Great Desert of Tanaris.
In front of his eyes, the sand in the air constantly flapped against his armor and mask, and under the distant sky, the blood-red hive buildings that rose from the ground and greeted him made Dick tremble, and in just a few days, the Pullworm had made such a formation in this desert that was wider than the Tanaris Desert?
The paladin's left arm began to burn faintly, that is the perception and rejection of the power of order by the power of disorder, the hidden chaos under this land, with such a domineering greeting, made Dick feel for the first time from the Desert of Silisus, that peep with deep malice!
