Stratholme District, 'Dawn of Light' Research Department. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The once crowded Research Department has become deserted, and apart from the occasional fleet, there are few people to be seen here.

The original dwarf-style laboratory also looks to have been transformed into a more 'Stratholme-style' house----- a square, gold-roofed house that resembles a military barracks.

"Good makeover. Benny looked around. "The concealment is good! Are all the defenses built?"

"It's still improving. Fording followed Benny's side, gesturing to the mountain looming behind the dense woods. "Our defenses are mainly built in the mountains, and the small defenses and vigilance facilities have been completed, but the arcane energy protection enchantment is still being perfected, and the mages need to carve runes in the mountains, so the progress is slow. ”

"An illusion has been applied here?" Benny suddenly listened to the footsteps, he reached forward with his hand, the air in front of him suddenly fluctuated, and his hand disappeared as if it had passed through something.

"Yes. Foding nodded. "But I don't think it's very significant, because the research department can't completely cut off contact with the outside world, and 'people with hearts' can easily find it through our transport fleet. ”

"Then build a short-distance subway system. Benny walked through the illusion barrier and continued. "The subway leads directly from Stratholme to the warehouse of the Research Department, and I will communicate with the craftsmen of Ironforge about this!" "The concealment of the Research Department must be ensured, and the defense facilities must continue to be improved, and it is very difficult to prevent 'senior' thieves like the Syndicate now! Not to mention the Burning Legion!

"That's for the best. Foding nodded.

The field of vision in front of him suddenly widened, and a huge clearing appeared next to the foot of the mountain.

"Your Excellency, Great Lord!" Fendall, who had been waiting for a long time, stepped forward and bowed, now that he finally had some aristocratic demeanor----- at least, he would not make a mistake about etiquette.

"Let's get straight to the point. "Benny had a bit of a sense of impatience for the first time.

"Of course. Your Excellency, High Lord!" Findel turned sideways. "It's all ready, and as soon as your order arrives, they'll be able to soar into the skies!"

"I want to see the aircraft first. Benny said.

"This way, please. ”

Benny followed Findel all the way to a strange building that was noticeably much taller than the others.

The building looked like a shackled warehouse from the previous life, with a brown roof that was close to the ground, and several guards in full costume stood in front of the gate.

"Your Excellency, Great Lord!" the four guards saluted, and the two guards stepped forward and slowly pushed open the gate.

Findel hurried ahead of Benny and led the group to a very strange machine------ which looked like some kind of flying machine, because it was obvious that it had two propellers.

It is peculiar because it is different from all known flying machines, with a sharp triangular nose, which expands halfway from the fuselage and turns back to the peculiar U-shaped wing of the tail, the center of the entire wing is completely hollowed out, and the two propellers are installed in the wing.

The whole aircraft does not look large, and on the sharp nose, there is a crystal cabin with a light purple tinge.

"Ahem!"

Everyone recovered from the small shock and looked at the gnome who had stood on a box at some point.

"Everyone!" said the dwarf, holding his head high and looking proud. "Allow me to introduce to you---- ahem---- our aircraft has not yet been officially named, of course, it doesn't matter, what matters is ----- its performance. ”

"Yes, shocking performance!" the dwarf waved his hands----- which was his habit when he was excited.

"This aircraft was shot by the great Dawn Leader High Lord Benedict Smith, and was developed by the Dawn Research Department. The dwarf bowed to Benny and continued to speak with his head held high. "The entire craft is made entirely of brand new metal developed by the Dwarven Craftsman----- yes, you heard it right, it's an all-metal crafting machine------ and of course, some Naru Crystals. The dwarf held up a finger. "Very few. ”

"It doesn't matter! it -----"

"Findel!" Benny interrupted the dwarf with a smirk.

"Oh yes, Your Excellency, Great Lord!"

"Getting to the point!"

"Yes!"

"It's all about ----- performance. The dwarf pointed to the flying machine with his right hand. "This aircraft is seven yards long and four and a half yards wide, its two propellers allow it to take off or land in place, and it can fly more than six times faster than Ironforge's newest aircraft----- you heard it right! It's six times as fast! At the same time, it's a one-man aircraft, and we have perfectly integrated its weapon system with its flight system----- and it's completely capable of being handled by a single person skillfully and smoothly! Oh, everyone must be concerned about his firepower! Look at the sides of the wings. ”

The gnome pointed to the wings of the craft and took up the four protruding long objects on it.

"These are four HL---B muskets with enhanced caliber and power! The muskets can be adjusted at an angle of 30 degrees up and down to ensure that the aircraft can carry out ground fire support without diving!"

"Is there a specific number?" Benny was probably the most sober of the crowd, and the others frowned----- wondering how much credibility the dwarf's words had!

"For example, how fast can it fly? How long can it be in the air?"

"It's a hundred and forty thousand yards in less than an hour! It can fly at this speed for nearly an hour!" said the dwarf excitedly.

"An hour?" Benny frowned slightly, it was too short to even support a slightly longer local encounter!

"What's its powertrain?" Benny asked

"It's the arcane power core researched by the Orvosbuck technicians!" the dwarf said. "He's debugging the aircraft on site, so he's not here. ”

"What's the power source?" Benny continued.

"Mana crystals. The dwarf suddenly became a little embarrassed.

"How many mana crystals will be consumed in an hour's flight?" Benny already had a bad premonition.

"Eleven----- normal size. "The gnome was even more embarrassed.

"Whew~" Benny nodded and sighed slightly. "I see. ”

An hour's flight will consume eleven mana crystals------ which is nearly two hundred gold coins, which is burning money!

"Cancel the flight tests and let all the engineering involved in the project of this aircraft come here. ”

The dwarf was stunned and jumped off the box.

"Your Excellency?" the dwarf's face was very bad, except that the power system was too expensive, he didn't know what displeased the Great Lord, and the power system could be solved by reducing the weight of the flying machine----- in his opinion, an all-metal flying machine was completely unnecessary!

"Go ahead. Benny nodded.

The gnome reluctantly walked out of the warehouse.

"Not satisfied?" Fordin walked over to Benny. "In my opinion, it's enough to shock me!" and it will blow everyone who sees it!

"What I want, not a money-burning machine!" Benny frowned, looking at the flying machine. "They're on the wrong track!"

The excitement had vanished, and Benny looked at the flying machine, which could be called 'changing skin and bones', wondering if he needed to intervene in the self-development of the 'Research Department'!

"Your Excellency, Great Lord!" Findel quickly ran back out of breath, followed by a large crowd of people, including gnomes, dwarves, elves, and some draenei.

"Everybody knows me. Benny looked around at the crowd. "I'm not a big fan of, so let's get straight to the point----- what do you think of this flying machine?"

"Flawless!" one of the gnomes shouted, and the others nodded their heads in amazement.

"It looks like it is. Benny turned around and looked at the sci-fi flying machine. "But do you know what it's for?"

"Against the Burning Legion. Findel said.

"Do you think it can be?" said Benny, shaking his head, asking himself. "In my opinion, no. ”

"Because we don't have that many mana crystals for it to burn!" Benny turned his head. "I have no intention of denying the results of your painstaking research, but it seems to me that, apart from what I said, this craft is perfectly flawless, and I admire your minds, and I am very glad to have you here, and you have turned one of my almost impossible ideas into a flying machine in front of me. ”

"But!" Benny paused. "I want to say that you are on the wrong path. ”

"Does anyone remember why the Research Department was founded in the first place?" asked Benny, looking at the crowd.

"Gather the power of all races and create a weapon strong enough to fight the Burning Legion!" said Draenei technician Andron, who took two steps forward.

"Gather the power of all races-----" Benny nodded. "So we first have to figure out what we're good at, what we have!"

"What is the gentliest, most stable, and most usable energy in this world?" Benny asked, looking at Andron.

Andren was stunned for a moment, not knowing how to answer, arcane is a power that is easy for mortals to use, but it is far from stable and gentle, and holy light, although mild, it is extremely difficult to control, and it cannot be called stable.

"It's the Light!" said Benny. "In their 10,000-year-long practice, the Draenei have summed up a set of effective Holy Light techniques, and you have even researched the Holy Light Rune-----"

"I think I get what you mean. A dwarf suddenly stepped forward. "You want to use the Light as an energy source, right?"
