Kaares, the home of the Ethereal. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

It was an 'arid' planet, and the biggest difference between it and Azeroth was that it had 80% of the planet's land, not the ocean.

But the creatures living on it don't feel that there is anything wrong with their own world, their technology has developed rapidly, and they have developed a technological device that can balance the ecology, and gradually, space is no longer an obstacle for them.

Just like other planets, this planet has its own problems of one kind or another, but in general, the creatures of this planet feel that they are happy.

Until, a Void Lord found the planet----- Dimansius the Devourer.

How Dimansius found their planet is still a question that the Ethereals want to solve, but the results of its arrival are clear.

Dimansius opened portals to countless voids, discorded arcane and dark energy poured into the planet, and a humanoid race of the Creatures of Karis used their technology to build field defenses in the city, and they succeeded, but strictly speaking, they were only halfway there.

The Stance successfully resisted the forces of darkness, but Discord's arcane flooded the city, tearing apart the bodies of these creatures and causing an unexpected change in their souls, whose souls and arcane energy combined into another creature------ Ethereal.

They bind themselves with magically strengthened strips of cloth so that the soul has an adequate structure to survive. This change became a blessing, their mental and magical abilities were strengthened, and their power became much stronger than before.

But they still couldn't resist Dimancius, because the Void portals brought not only the Arcane and Darkness of Discord, but also an army of Void creatures.

The Void army swept across the planet, and the Void Spirits were forced to use their spatial node technology to escape into the universe, and they found that their new bodies were not afraid of being exposed to the Void, and they could survive in the harshest environments.

In order to rebuild their planet, the ethereal spirits wandered through the universe, collecting all the available resources, and gradually, these ethereal spirits were divided into countless forces, and they even began to hate each other, but their purpose was always only one: to rebuild Kaares.

Ethereals began to appear in the realms as merchants and raiders, their social structure is not yet known, they are too mysterious for a creature to make a deal with, they will not have any deep communication with you, people only know that they call their leader the Prince of -----.

An ethereal force calling itself the Astral Consortium came to the Outlands and found that it had the supplies they needed, they set up camp in Nagrand, where the ecological environment was well preserved, and found a crystal called the Valley of Voshu, which they found to have an incredible magical power, but it was overrun by a large number of Void creatures, they sent an army of Void Spirits and began to clean up the Void creatures there, and began to collect the Void Valley Crystals there.

But recently, some 'outsiders' have reached some kind of agreement with the node prince Haramad of the Astral Consortium, and they have ripped out the Voshu Valley and started making certain deals with these 'outsiders'.

"You want 'spatial node technology'?" Prince Haramad is taller than the other ethereals, and the strips of cloth on his body that have been enchanted are also more ornate, I don't know if it is to facilitate communication with other races, the ethereal spirits always make the strips of cloth on their heads into the shape of a face, and that face can also make various expressions.

"We are talking about business, Your Excellency. Kael'thas bowed slightly, and the etiquette of tens of thousands of years of precipitation was full of elegance. "You're a seller and I'm a buyer, right?"

Kael'thas stumbled upon the ethereal 'Space Nodal' technology that can cause no damage to the surrounding space barriers, and it consumes much less energy----- so small that Kael'thas was shocked, and he was very eager to get his hands on this new space technology.

Think about it, using portals to link every city, even villages and cities, without worrying about these portals causing any damage to the space, they seem to be completely arcane creatures, and their technology is inseparable from arcane, and the elves must be able to master this technology, right?

"As a businessman, I like your candor, Your Majesty. Haramed's cloth-tied face smiled. "But IMHO, space node technology is not easy to master, my ancestors spent thousands of years studying it, but if you insist, I have a full set -----of space node equipment, as well as instructions for how to make them and how they work. ”

Obviously, this is not the first time that Haramed has done this kind of business, and for them, there is nothing that cannot be sold, and there is nothing that cannot be bought.

"Where's the price?" asked Kael'thas.

"It's free. Haramad snapped his fingers, and arcane sparks crackled.

Kael'thas was stunned for a moment, then laughed.

"If I'm not mistaken, you'll say next, 'You just need to help me destroy the demons of Voidstorm that are attacking the Eco Dome. ’”

"Oh~ It seems that your intelligence system is very powerful. "Haramet is not at all embarrassed to be debunked. "Your army is very strong, even Illidan------- you must know Illidan, after all, he is very high-profile, that guy controls a powerful army. But even Illidan is afraid of your army, right? Some demons don't pose any threat to you. ”

"Deal. Kael'thas nodded happily. "I have a question----- though. ”

"Speak. ”

"Why don't you destroy those demons yourself? I don't think you have the power. ”

The technology of the ethereal spirit is actually not developed, in Benny's words, the ethereal spirit's technological path is very narrow, their technology is reflected in space technology, and the 'ecological dome' technology they are proud of is strictly speaking an expansion of space technology, their military and people's technology is not even as good as the current dwarfs, but their magic is very developed, thanks to their arcane bodies, they can even be regarded as arcane creatures.

So, the army of the Ethereals is not weak, they have even faced the Burning Legion head-on in the universe, and it is said that there is no winner in that battle.

"The Astral Consortium's business spans the entire universe, which makes us a little short of manpower in the Outlands, so we -----"

"I see. Kael'thas nodded.

"Your shipment will be delivered to Shattrath City in three hours, please pay attention to sign for it. Haramed cupped his chest and bowed. "Farewell, Your Majesty Kael'thas. ”

Kael'thas returned the salute with his chest, and the image of Haramet slowly faded.

"Your Majesty!" Lotherma walked over to Kael'thas. "We don't have extra troops to send to Void Storm, not to mention, the road to there has been completely blocked by Illidan's army!"

"Did we just talk about when to send troops to the Void Storm?" Kael'thas asked, looking at the Ranger Commander he relied on the most.

"Nope. ”

"Do you think such a shrewd businessman would make such a mistake?" Kael'thas smiled. "Of course not, they just don't want to be seen as 'priceless'. ”

"I don't quite understand. Lotherma frowned, puzzled.

"The most important thing for a businessman is to have a good customer who can continue to provide him with 'big business'. And we, that customer. Kael'thas said. "He's showing us his sincerity because ------"

"Because there is no bigger and better business than war. Benny looked at the letter from Kael'thas and hooked the corners of his mouth. "This guy learned a lot from me!"

"I only hope you don't misinterpret the Prince's intentions. Sylvanas shook her head and continued to sort through the intelligence documents on the table, she needed to sift through the intelligence from all over the world, leaving the useful and the useless out, before that, the documents had been sifted through, but it was still a huge job.

"Ethereal spirits are much more skilled in doing business than goblins. Benny lay back in his chair and stretched. "These guys dare to make a deal with the Burning Legion without losing money. ”

"Are you going to recruit them into the Dawn of Light?" asked Sylvanas without looking up.

"Of course not. Benny shook his head. "They stench too much. ”

"Copper stink?"

"Just look at the names they have given themselves, the Astral Consortium, they won't be interested in anything other than 'money', although the meaning of money here is somewhat wide------ resources, spells, and even a corpse. Benny spread his hands. "As long as you have it, he dares to buy it. ”

"A group of bottomless businessmen. Sylvanas looked up. "When are you going to be okay with doing business with this kind of guy. Sylvanas didn't know how to describe Benny, but he learned from Benny ----- moral cleanliness.

"The phrase I taught you doesn't describe me. Benny smiled helplessly and shook his head. "These guys don't have a bottom line, but they're loyal to the contract, and that's enough for us. We and them just take what they need, as long as they don't violate my bottom line, I don't care about anything else. ”

Sylvanas tilted her head and continued to sort through the papers.

"Let's go out for a walk. Benny stood up and walked over to Sylvanas.

"I'm also going to sift through the files. Sylvanas shook her head. "There's some important information here, from Northrend. ”

"Let Trixie help you. Benny couldn't help but say as he pulled Sylvanas like he walked out the door.

"Trixis. Sylvanas reluctantly knocked Benny's hand off.

"Ma'am. Trish pushed the door open.

"Sift through those documents, and I'll come back and look at them. ”

Trixi's face turned bitter.

"Yes, ma'am. "It's not an easy job.

"Do you need a guard to follow?"

Benny waved his hand.

"No, I don't. ”

"But-----" Trixie was a little embarrassed. "Let the intelligence department's escorts follow, they won't bother the two. ”

"We're not going out of town. ”

Benny and Sylvanas walked out of the room directly, and Trixie looked helplessly at the table full of papers, some of them busy. (To be continued.) )
