Just as the Battle of Dalaran was about to begin, in the south of the Eastern Continent, the black mountains covered with snow all year round were everywhere. The great craftsman Gerbin Mekatok paced back and forth in a makeshift camp near Dan Moro Karanos with a melancholy face. The snowflakes that fell from the sky silently covered the body of the old dwarf with a white beard with a thin layer of hoarfrost.

The campfire in the camp is stubbornly making a "crackling" sound, proving that he is still contributing a trace of warmth, but here, the cronies of the Nomorigen exiles who were invited by the master craftsman to go out for an "outing", and the master craftsman Owersbuck is not in a good mood.

Not long ago, a spy claiming to be Lordaeron brought a letter. When the master craftsman took out the letter and his eyes fell on the letter that had been named to him, his face changed suddenly, and then he read the entire letter almost hungrily, and then the master craftsman raised his head, the expression on his face was a little dull, which made the surrounding Nomorigen exiles feel that something was wrong.

Seeing this, the master craftsman Owersbuck asked with some eagerness, "What's the matter?" What is written on it?"

The others also watched the great craftsman's reaction with curiosity and anticipation. Under the gaze of everyone, the master craftsman reversed his usual appearance of saying something, he hesitated, and finally swallowed a mouthful of saliva as if he had made up his mind, and then stabilized his emotions and said, "Someone knows the news of McCargon." ”

Everyone was in an uproar!

Then there was a scene of the master craftsman and the master craftsman riding out on a mechanical bird under the pretext of inspecting the periphery of Nomorigen.

McCargon, the ancient pygmy mechanical kingdom. There is little to know about its past, which can only be glimpsed from the legends of the gnomes. But first of all, it should be clear that modern gnomes, like dwarves, are all Titans, and after being cursed by flesh and blood, they slowly fade from their original form, from inorganic things such as machines or stones to organic things like flesh and blood.

And that ancient gnome technology kingdom, after the curse of flesh and blood, in the bottomless underground world, devoted itself to research, and developed the flesh and blood form through the transformation of science and technology, so that the gnomes can become mechanical forms again! King McCargon claimed that only the mechanical form is the most perfect form of the Titan's creation, and this is the destination of the gnomes.

But unlike the "afterlife", the king of McCargon, who was driven mad by the whispers of the old god Enzos, McCargon at that time did not force every dwarf to be mechanized, it was a choice of personal will, and no one could force it. However, due to the fact that mechanized transformation can indeed bring more, more convenient and stronger changes to the daily life and strength of the dwarfs, many dwarfs have chosen to carry out mechanized transformation.

As for the gnomes of Nomorigan, how they lost contact with McCargon, and even their origins are unknown, even their leader, the Great Craftsman, can not be said, but many ancient books record that the source of this problem is that there is a dwarf mortal enemy in the vast group of underground creatures, that is, cavemen, also known as stone palatines.

In the underground world, troglodians are the real rulers, dwarves and gnomes are "outsiders", although these three parties are all titan creations, but from the dwarves and gnomes are affected by the flesh curse, as for the cavemen, they used to help the Titans dig mountains and abysses, but when the Titans left and those guardians "slept" After that, I don't know when the cavemen began to claim to be the rulers of the underworld, and when the first dwarves and gnomes entered the underworld, the cavemen were already aware of the existence of these two races.

At first, both sides were unharmed, the cavemen didn't care about the small number of creatures that were still on the outskirts of their territory, the underground world was so vast that they didn't mind sharing it with other races. But as time went on, both the gnomes and the dwarves developed powerful civilizations, and the cavemen remained the same as before. And the underground power of the gnomes and dwarves has expanded more and more, which directly conflicts with the cavemen.

And then...... Then there was no more, and the dwarves changed direction to look for minerals in the mountains, rather than focusing only on the underground, after all, they thought that there were more minerals in the mountains than underground, so the conflict between the cavemen and the dwarves was almost cut off. But gnomes are different, take McCargon and Nomorigan as examples, although they are very high-tech, they are an underground city after all, and if they want to continue to develop, it will undoubtedly compress the living space of the cavemen, and this contradiction is unavoidable.

War and death escalated this conflict, which was originally only a territorial conflict, directly to the level of mortal enemies on both sides, so that later the cavemen, who were not very intelligent, would attack any creature that dared to break into their territory when they saw it, which was completely contrary to the original intention of the Titans and Guardians......

Therefore, Adelan boldly guessed that Nomorigan, the dwarf who had crossed the ocean to Danmoro, probably migrated to escape the war, and in the years that followed, like the elves of Quel'Thalas, they gradually forgot about Eresalas (the air of doom).

As for Edlan, the reason why he asked Nomorigen for McCargon's information was related to his layout. Go to Ulduar to find the authentic mechanical gnome boss Mimiron himself who is not qualified in terms of power or strength, that is one of the guardians left by the Titans, he is one of the few guardians who has not been corrupted or injured, and what he has produced is a perfect example of magical technology engineering!

It's just that Adelan would love to find that one and get him back out of the mountains to fight for Azeroth, but now this

It's unlikely, Lordaeron still has a bunch of to deal with, and even what Dalaran should do now, he is just a little bit of an eyebrow.

But in Edlan's vision and layout, since he can't get Mimiron's help for the time being, then he can only find what he wants through McCargon, who is also a mortal.

That's right, in the world of Azeroth, the development of technology is also very high, thanks to the technology left by the Titans and the technology outflowed from the Guardians, the gnomes are undoubtedly the race that inherited the mantle of the Guardians. Although Nomorigan's dwarf level is a little second, it still creates a lot of convenient vehicles for the alliance in the "afterlife", but the dwarf engineering is still full of all kinds of instability, which makes Adlan very painful, so he set his sights on the McAgon kingdom.

In the imagination of a certain traverser, the best way to fight against the Burning Legion is not to build the "Great Wall" with the flesh and blood of the natives of Azeroth, but to use technology! As a person who has crossed through the world of advanced technology, Aedlan naturally knows the meaning of technology! Those high-tech war vehicles can be piloted by some ordinary people who have undergone strict training, and the power they exert can even be equal to that of high-level professionals, which is extremely advantageous in dealing with endless demon wars! It is also the best way to preserve the vitality of Azeroth, magic and technology go hand in hand, which is the most beneficial development of this world!

So at the moment when he can't get Naru Technology and Titan Technology, McCargon is his only choice. Even if it won't be able to solve the problems of materials, energy, or driver training for a while, Adlane knows what kind of benefits the technology of flesh mechanization, more specifically the branch prosthetic technology, can bring to the army resisting the undead at this stage!

That's the reuse of disabled skilled soldiers!

In war, living people always have these or that defects, such as being injured or missing an arm, and people like this can no longer go to war, and the most suitable job for them is probably a sheriff in a small town or an instructor in a boot camp. Perhaps this is a good thing for some people to have peace in the rear after a brutal war, but many more people, they have a hatred for the invaders, a great hatred for the souls of the dead, and the pain of keeping them away from the battlefield is no less painful than replaying in front of them and having their loved ones eaten alive in front of their eyes......

Therefore, mechanical prosthetic technology is the technology that Adline wants to get the most, there are many veterans in Lordaeron, in the hills of Hillsbrad, those veterans who have lost their ability to fight are some ambitious, and will form militia guards under the leadership of the local government to help maintain local order, but some are very desperate guys, they soak in alcohol all day and waste their lives......

Such skilled soldiers, such soldiers who are loyal to the motherland, are wasted in the rear like this, and they should not be sunk like this! If prosthetic technology can be popularized soon, then these people will become the backbone of the fighting force against the undead and demons after adapting to the new limbs! Maybe even if they can use the natural advantages of mechanical prosthetics to exert even more powerful strength than before!

So, this is a step that a certain time-traveler has been thinking about for a long time, and now he finally has the opportunity and this status, and can talk to the leader of a small country on an equal footing, although the wording in his letter is not too formal and disrespectful, but it has to be said that McCargon is indeed very attractive to the gnomes.

Now head back to the little camp outside Karanos.

"Owarthbuck, do you think the human spy who claims to be from the North is reliable......?

"Oh no, Gerbin, this is the thirteenth time you've asked! Hell, didn't you call me out to relax?

Listening to the words of the master craftsman, Owersbuck, Mecatok was a little stunned, he stopped, raised his head, took off his engineering glasses, which had slightly problems and had entered his list of "troubles that must be solved", and saw through the naked eye what a magnificent scene of snowflakes falling from the sky was, he exhaled and asked, "Owersbuck, do you think a human would know McCargon's name?"

Owarthback took a sip of the mead from his allies at Ironforge, pulled his coat tighter and took a deep breath of cold air before trying to sober himself up a bit, "Hey man, have you forgotten the iron rules that we engineers must practice in order to pursue the truth?"

"Of course I know that, but do you know what the outside world says about our gnomes' engineering?"

Owarthback didn't notice the great craftsman's fierce glance before he said that, he jumped up very confidently, and said as if he were dancing with his hands: "Our gnome engineering is the most brilliant and creative technology in the world! We can use it to make a lot of useful tools! Successful engineers can use their inventions to solve problems and make themselves and their teammates faster and stronger! Our creations are enough to change Azeroth!" For example, eyewear that enhances eyesight or makes others look taller, powerful guns, mechanical pets, mechanical mounts, rare trinkets, and even brainwashing helmets that can control powerful creatures, and ......"

"Oh my God, it's good to be confident, but how did I never know you had a habit of talking after drinking?"

"Hiccup! I—I'm not lying!"

The master craftsman took out a booklet from his storage backpack and shook it, "Let's see what is written on this ...... 'Owossback's Non-Disclosure Agreement,' for firearms."

The strength you have to check and repair in detail before and after use, if you don't mind the breakdown and squib, then you can also use it directly, but if there is any problem, we are not responsible', 'for the sake of ......'"

"Stop, man, where did you get this brochure? Wasn't that the first version of the job posting I put out a few years ago to get more people into our business?"

"This is what the humans of Stormwind use to promote us, do you know what they say to kids who want to study engineering?' In the world of Azeroth, there are two major branches of engineering: dwarf engineering and goblin engineering. I think it's a waste of time to mention goblins, but you still have to be wary of gnome technology. They've made a whole bunch of gadgets that claim to change the world, but very few of those things work. Well, friend, read this manual. If you want to learn the trash that will never come in handy, give this to Owersbuck, the master craftsman of Ironforge. He's the Great Mentor of Gnome Engineering, and if you're ready to make some truly wonderful equipment, then you've come to the right place with Master Craftsman Owersbuck who will help you move faster on the bright path of Gnome Engineering. Once you've become an officially recognized technician and have your technician license, you'll be able to use all of the design diagrams for Gnome Engineering!'"

Hearing this, Owerthbuck's face turned red, although his pink and purple hair and huge goggles covered most of his face, but the red to the root of his ears still revealed his shame, so he loudly defended: "Slander, this is definitely slander! Also, why are those tall men in the Stormwind Kingdom so bad-eyed, still using our first edition of the manual, and I have updated the "Confidentiality Agreement" to version 8.2!"

The master craftsman smiled, and then the expression on his face finally softened, and he walked back to the campfire, patted the snow on the ground with the booklet, and sat down with his butt padded, "Now can you answer me? Do you think what the Baron of Anaheim said in his letter is worth it for us to go and risk the undead to meet him?"

"Honestly, man, I don't know, we've had enough trouble. Also, look at the princess of Lordaeron, she's been exiled to Stormwind, and even Muradin has said that things are not going well in the north, and I don't think that human knew where he got the word McCargon, and I'm afraid he doesn't know what McCargon means, so we shouldn't venture into that muddy water just from those words. ”

"It's because he doesn't know what that means to us gnomes, so I think he wants to betray this news to us, if he really knows how advanced and magnificent the ancient gnome tech kingdom is, then he doesn't have direct contact with the other party......? Speaking of this, the great craftsman was also worried, after being betrayed by a traitor and fleeing to Ironforge Castle, the life of the gnomes was not easy, his words came to an abrupt end, picked up the flask, and poured it hard.

Drinking to kill their sorrows, every intelligent race seems to have learned this way.

Adelan is afraid that it will not be convincing to send someone to talk about the past, and there is no evidence, and it is likely that the other party will misunderstand that he is to entertain them, so he has this letter, but in fact, for those dwarfs who are curious and like to get to the bottom of it, his behavior of pointing questions and breaking the chapter is undoubtedly a great torture for them!

No, the Great Craftsman and his Master Craftsman have been hesitating about this for some time. First, they really wanted to know if the human knew the location and specifics of McCargon, and second, the Northland was too dangerous, and the gnomes themselves had enough trouble to find out the truth of the news......

But the other way around...... If McCargon really exists, then it will not be a little bit of growth for the current dwarf technology, and maybe it can really use the power of the ancient gnome technology kingdom to solve the problems they are facing now.

So in this way, the master craftsman and the master craftsman have been secretly exploring for a long time, but they still can't come up with an answer.

"Why don't I go and test the long-range and endurance of our new vehicle. Owersback threw a dry piece of wood into the campfire, and then he looked at their leader haggardly, he knew that he couldn't carry everything on his own old buddy, and since he had to take on the responsibility of being a master craftsman, "You know, I hate those dwarven griffins, every time I sit on them, it's like they've been thrown into the Super Cleaner Type 5200 and keep spinning! ”

The master craftsman stared at his old fellow for a long time, and he was very pleased that there were still people who had enough strength to stand up and fight for the great cause of the dwarfs at such a juncture, "Everyone has their own things worth protecting, it is not about strength or weakness, it is only about will, no matter how weak you are, when you devote yourself to this protective action, you may be the strongest in your life...... It's all for Nomorigan's sake, old man, be careful. ”

"It's all for Nomorigan. Rest assured, although the difference between strength and weakness is so realistic, it will not change immediately because of your will, without a strong force to support your will, everything is just empty talk, and the will to protect is just a short-lived joke...... But, old man, you know, the guy who could kill me wasn't born yet. ”

After the two dwarfs said some awkward and secondary two "life testimonials" to each other, they looked at each other and smiled, touched the wine jug in their hands, and then drank the rest of the wine......
