The next day, the dwarves knocked on Ares' door, but when they opened the door, they found a Blood Elf woman in the room......

"Hey, things aren't what you think they are."

Dressed Ares, tried to explain, but the dwarves clearly didn't want to hear him.

"What's that? Sharing a room with a Blood Elf woman in the middle of the night is impossible not to happen unless you're not a man. ”

The dwarf Yarlin said with a wicked grin.

But Valeera didn't go out to explain, she still looked hazy and sleepy.

……

After breakfast, Magni led the group to the shooting range.

"Hey, Ares, Varian, I have something to show you."

Magni said mysteriously. He acted as his own guide, taking Ares and Varian all the way to the very back of the shooting range. The rooms here are even bigger than those outside.

"What is it?"

Ares asked curiously.

"Good thing, the weapon you left us two years ago when you left."

"What I left for you?"

Ares was a little confused, and he couldn't remember what he had left behind in Ironforge two years ago.

It wasn't until Magni removed a spear from the weapon rack that Ares suddenly remembered. That's the masterpiece he left behind in Ironforge two years ago - rifled guns!

"I didn't expect you to keep it until now."

Ares sighed in surprise.

"Not only have the weapons been kept to this day, but I have also trained a new army for them. Behold, King Ironforge Musketeers! ”

Magni said, showing off his new army like a proud father. Looking in the direction Magni was pointing, Ares saw a ranged force of dwarves in bright armor and weapons to the extreme. This special team is equipped with a high-powered telescope developed by dwarf craftsmen, and at the same time, each has a rifled gun. A round steel shield and a field light axe. He wears the finest chain mail on his body, the silver-scaled breastplate. In the light of the fire, it looks like a silver knight army.

"What's so special about this weapon?"

Varian didn't understand the equipment of the new army, and asked modestly and curiously.

"What's special about it is its range and accuracy. Equipping this musket will increase the range of the musketeer by more than five times and double the accuracy. The principle is that the bullet is emitted in the threaded chamber and rotates itself at high speed when it is out of the chamber, thus enhancing the power and stability of the bullet. It was invented by Ares two years ago, and after he left, I improved it and equipped it on a large scale with the Ironforge Guard. It has also achieved very good results in actual combat. ”

Magni continued to proudly introduce. Valeera, on the other hand, once again cast a reverent look at Ares. It's just that Ares didn't pay attention, he listened intently to Magni's explanation, and at the same time thought about the other preparations needed to go south to Stormwind City.

"Magni, is there a potion in Ironforge called a dragon slaying potion?"

Just as Magni enthusiastically introduced his new army to the visitors around him, Ares suddenly asked a nervous question and asked another question.

"Dragon Slayer Elixir?"

"Yes."

"I've heard of it, but Ironforge doesn't, and Danmoro has some. It's a potion that's usually produced in small quantities and is something that only dragon hunters need, but you know, dragon hunters make up a small percentage of our species. It is a high-risk profession that not many people are willing to pursue. Of course, if you need to, I can enlist the dwarves of all Danmoro to collect this potion. ”

Magni returned enthusiastically.

"Then I'm bothering you. We need as much as possible. ”

"Okay, I see, I'll let people prepare."

Magni patted his chest and assured.

"What else do you need, brother, just mention it, and I will fully support you."

He continued.

"You may not be able to meet what I need next."

Ares turned to speak.

"Say! There's nothing Ironforge can't satisfy. The sharpest weapon or the toughest shield! ”

Magni said with a grimace.

"No, neither. We need people. ”

After Ares finished speaking, Magni fell silent. Or as I said before, the matter of Stormwind City, after all, is the business of Stormwind City, it is okay to help privately, and openly send troops to Stormwind City, which is not what a king should do. If it is not done well, it will lead to a deterioration in diplomacy between the two countries. Even if the real Varian is here, right in front of him. But who knows? The world still thinks that Varian on the throne of the Stormwind Kingdom is the real king.

"Okay, I'm not going to embarrass you, just five, five dwarven snipers. Wear a dragon slaying potion. ”

Ares said with a smile.

"Say it early, five is fine. I thought you would need a lot of manpower......"

After Ares finished talking about the numbers, Magni readily agreed. The five musketeers, which can be interpreted as private personal actions, have nothing to do with Ironforge. This will not involve the diplomacy of major powers.

"Thank you, Magni, then."

"Be careful if you're so polite, I'll beat you up."

Magni yelled.

……

"So when are you going to go, and have you planned the route?"

As he walked out of the military zone, Magni asked other questions. The group wandered through the tall Ironforge Castle, with boulders and dense dwarven wallhouses overhead. Broll and Valilla are interested in everything. Looking at the vast space around them, they could not imagine how the dwarves had carved such a magnificent city out of the mountains.

"As soon as possible, the sooner the better, and if you can, we'll leave tomorrow. I was furious at the thought that the puppet still occupied my throne and persecuted my people. ”

Varian replied.

"That's not good, old friend, you're too grumpy. This is not necessarily a good thing for the whole operation. ”

Magni said, a hint of concern in her words.

"Well, I'll admit it. But I still couldn't control my emotions and thought about revenge all the time. ”

Varian confessed.

"Well, well, be careful yourself. And the route, tell me the route, your plan. ”

Magni continued to ask.

"From the South Gate, through the Burning Plains, then to Red Ridge Mountain, then from the East Valley Lumberyard into the Elwyn Forest, and finally to Stormwind."

Varian said.

"Burning Plains...... I advise you not to go anywhere. The Burning Plains are no longer what they used to be, they are more dangerous, and a terrible force is reviving and rising...... Why not take the sea route? ”

Magni then asked.

He didn't say what kind of power was recovering, rising. I went straight to the next question.

"The sea route is estimated to have been blocked. You don't know, Magni, not long ago, when we landed in the port of Minethil, we were attacked by an Assassin force. Luckily, we were able to find the Assassins in time and deal with them, so we were able to return safely. But from this incident, it can be learned that Katerina. Presto already knows what we're doing. It's not far from Stormwind to Minethil Harbor, and I'm afraid she's already lined up on the road, waiting for me to throw herself into the net. So, we have to go overland. ”

Varian replied.

"Alas, well. If you've decided, do so as soon as possible. Also, don't pass under the Blackstone Tower, bypass it, the farther away the better. ”

Magni instructed.
