Chapter 646: The Secret Passage
Valley of Thorns, Treasure Bay.
It is the largest port and town in the Valley of Thorns, the headquarters of the Blackwater pirates, and the largest stolen goods in the entire South Seas, where the Blackwater pirates gather to transport looted supplies to all parts of Azeroth, and even to the continent of Kalimdor once the tribe is formed. Slowly, the stolen goods of the Alliance and the Horde were sometimes sold here, and the ruling Rivigaz even set up a neutral auction house here exclusively for the use of the Alliance and the Horde.
Ratchet City is also ruled by Rivigaz, and his unexplained relationship with the tribe is not to be said, and some say that he is a member of the 'Hot Sand Trade Organization', but most of it is just speculation. But not to mention the many goblin technologies he provided to the Horde, the waterway from Ratchet City to Booty Bay was the only reliable waterway available to the Horde until a trade agreement was reached between the Horde and the Alliance.
And relying on the treasure bay, Rivigaz has indeed accumulated considerable wealth, and has also earned the title of the rich man. Using this wealth, he purchased a considerable number of ships, hired a sizable number of guards, and gained a considerable degree of military power.
It's just that ------ this power is a little inadequate in front of a war machine like 'Dawn Light'.
"Oh~ Dear Lord Rivigaz, my employer is sorry for the conflict that took place before. Razdenk sat on his steam mech, squinting condescendingly at Rivigas, his face covered with under-beaten mockery. "Considering that it was your people who did it first, of course there is no compensation or anything, and in addition, my employer wants to be able to rent the port here, what is the price------ this needs to be discussed by us, and from now on, I am fully responsible for this matter. ”
Razdenk straightened his collar and looked around nonchalantly, the goblin guards were tied up in a string to the stakes of the harbor, he had little sympathy for these former opponents, on the contrary, he was happy to see them all happen.
Rivigaz was a thin goblin who was also seen in the population, wearing a pirate shirt and a captain's hat on his head, and his face looked rather gloomy with a sharp shadow.
"I'm going to talk to your employer, Razdenk! You filthy pig doesn't qualify!"
"Then I'll have to let my employer implement the second package. Razdenk held up two fingers and shook them. "We're going to temporarily detain your guards, and of course, you and your first mate. Razdenk gestured to a side hill of dark-skinned minotaurs. "Then, we're going to forcibly requisition the port here------ and as for the other ships that need to dock here------ trust me, my employer doesn't have any sympathy for pirates!"
"You filthy pig! ---- shit------ "The human assistant shoved a rag into his mouth with a wink.
"Boss, the marshal is looking for you. The human assistant pointed behind him.
"As I said, put these stinky pirates in their own dungeon!" Razdenk smiled and waved his hand, jumping out of the mech and running towards the harbor.
"Your Excellency, the port here is still too small for our warships. "I thought the admiral in the uniform of the Navy was reporting something. "We can only rely on some simple supplies here, and we can't carry out the work of repairing the battleship!"
"It doesn't matter. Gavinrad put down his binoculars. "We won't stay here for long, and the battle won't take place in this sea, your fleet is just in case, your priority is to keep an eye on the pirates in this area, prevent them from being used by the Naga, and if necessary, you have the right to use force to defeat them. ”
"Yes!" the admiral punched his chest, glanced at the running goblins, and turned away, he didn't like these dwarf creatures, most humans didn't, and their eyes always gleamed with cunning.
"Your Excellency, Marshal!" Razdenk bowed deeply and flatteringly. "Can the humble Razdenk help you?"
"Can you get in touch with Kozan Island?" Gavin Rad never beat around the bush and always got straight to the point, and Razdenk was obviously used to this, rubbing his hands together without hesitation but rather awkwardly.
"It's my hometown, Your Excellency Marshal, it's just that ----- I'm only a very small person there----- this -----you know------"
Gavinrad waved his hand.
"As far as I know, the center of Kozan Island is a town called Andermai?"
Razdenk nodded.
"So, did you know that Undermar has a direct passage to the bottom of the Endless Sea?"
The goblins were stunned, the passage to the bottom of the Endless Sea? This ----- this is Undermail's biggest secret! Even he only learned of the existence of such a secret passage by a very accidental accident, how did these humans know?
"Looks like you know. "Gavin Rad is as sharp as ever. "Let's get it straight, Mr. Razdenk, we need to requisition that secret passage, just as we requisition this port, but I need an intermediary who can help us get to Kozan, and I think you'll be the right one. "In fact, Gavin Rad has no one else to use, and he doesn't have time to contact the head of the Hot Sand Trade through the Horde, although the latter is clearly better suited for the job.
"This ------" the goblin rubbed his hands together hesitantly, and beads of sweat began to appear on his forehead.
Kozan Island is a territory commanded by the Prince of Trade, and although he still has some status on the island of Kozan, if he had to negotiate directly with the Prince of Trade------ if it weren't for the statues on the island, he wouldn't even know what the Prince of Trade looked like-----!
"You just need to take the job, and we'll take care of the early stages. "Gavinrad is clearly aware of his concerns, and the 'Encyclopedia of Azeroth's Intelligent Races' left behind by Benny has given him more than enough knowledge about goblins, including their strange political system. "You see, Mr. Razdenk, we just don't want to solve problems by force. Gavin Rad looked at the goblins who were being taken into the dungeon, and the meaning in his eyes was self-evident, he had already seen through Razdenk's thoughts.
"Oh, of course, Your Excellency. Razdenk hurriedly bowed his head. "I'm willing to take this job, it's just ------"
"The remuneration will satisfy you. Gavinrad picked up the telescope again, and in the lens he could already faintly see some huge ship's bow piercing through the fog, it was the Grand Fleet of Dawn Light.
Razdenk paused for a moment, then turned away silently, not knowing what awaited him, opportunity, or being buried at the bottom of the sea?
