Chapter 85: Science and Technology Are King
Jiang Weihan looked at the goblin with amusement and said, "I have an idea, that is, I hope to combine Valoran's magic technology with Azeroth's magic technology to create a greater magical technology civilization - perhaps some earth technology. Otherwise, I see that you have some skills, you can simply join my science and technology room, and I can give you a good salary. He seduced/bewitched: "It must be a much higher salary than you sell protection machines all day long!" ”
Jikshir hesitated, and he thought to himself that his sales pitch had indeed failed. The acquisition of the Hillsbrad Hills is still a long way off. Seeing the invention of a goblin pacemaker, who knew that this lord would be a little unsightly - should he go back to Kozan Island to sell to those goblin chaebols?
He felt that those fellows were even more hateful than vampires, and that he would be squeezed dry by them.
"Still, I want to buy the Hillsbrad Hills—if you work for you, God knows if I'll be able to grant my wish before I die." Jikhir was in tears.
Jiang Weihan encouraged: "As a lord, I have always pursued a policy of 'meritocracy'. I can guarantee that if you make a meaningful invention here, I will give you a good reward - if you have enough ability, you can even get a land that is even bigger and richer than this Hillsbrad Hills! Or even become the world's highest-ranking goblin! ”
"Okay, boss!" Jikhir immediately changed his tune. The cunning goblin immediately realized that his real opportunity had come!
After getting this new job, the goblin stopped selling machines and pacemakers, and directly prepared to go back to Nanhai Town to move all his belongings. And by the way, he also gets a task to recruit more goblin experts with real talents for his boss.
In fact, Jiang Weihan didn't fool Jikeshir on a whim, but he did have such an idea. Even if Jikshir doesn't come to "throw himself into the net", it won't be long before he looks for opportunities to work with the gnomes.
In any world, the power of technology cannot be underestimated. Even though Azeroth is still the king of magic, Jiang Weihan will definitely not forget how Garrosh, who established the Iron Tribe in the future, is the enemy of the whole world - in addition to evil energy, the key to the rapid rise of the Iron Tribe is goblin technology!
Mecha monsters like steel war scorpions, and terrorist/terrifying bombs/bombs like steel stars, these are all armed with technology. So much so that it is clear that the Iron Tribe of Garrosh is only a small part of the original tribe, but it has to unite other tribes, alliances, and panda people to fight against it.
Even back in Draenor, technology is still the Iron Tribe's most powerful weapon. Garrosh relied on an improved version of the Iron Star to severely damage the Abyss Lord Manolos, which gave him the opportunity to kill his son Grom Chuang.
- Manolos is no small character. Even in the Burning Legion, that can be ranked high. Akmund the "Polluter", Kilgardan the "Fraudster", and Manolos the "Saboteur" are the three most effective generals under the Legion Master Sargeras.
Since a weapon like the Iron Star can damage Manolos, a more powerful weapon naturally has the potential to damage or even kill Akmund.
And technology has a huge advantage over magic: learning magic requires talent, while mastering technology requires knowledge.
-- Talent is a very thing, if you have it, you have it, and if you don't have it, you don't have it. There are one in a hundred people with magical talents, and the vast majority of them can't reach the realm of great magicians. Therefore, magic is really difficult to popularize, but anyone with a normal IQ and body can master the use of technological weapons.
Looking at the devices revealed by the Titans so far, almost most of them can be related to technology.
Science and technology are the primary productive forces -- the words of His Majesty Taizong are definitely the most rational sayings in the universe.
……
After the discovery of the Norrend continent, humans established a permanent colony in the Borean tundra, which was named "Zhiyuan County". But since the rise of the Lich King, the colonists here have had the most terrifying nightmares - the vast majority of human civilians have now been killed by the Scourge Legion, and even the port fortress was recaptured from the undead by the Lordaeron fleet not long ago.
After Luo Ning and his party landed, they separated from the orcs. According to the guidance, the orc advance team divided into two ways to explore: one to the north and one to the west. And agreed that no matter how far he went, he would return to Zhiyuan County to gather in half a month.
Crassus takes Ronin, Winlessa, and a group of soldiers to the Dragonbone Wastes, a sacred place for dragons to lay dead in the world.
The Red Dragon Queen, Alexstasa, is usually here.
Three days after landing, the group was almost at their destination.
As night fell, and after everyone began to rest, Crassus used his magic to create a mirror image of himself and stay in the tent, and then quietly left the tent using invisibility. When he reached no man's land, he dissolved his magic and transformation spells, and instantly transformed into his own image - a large, strong adult red dragon!
Then he flapped his wings and flew towards the sacred land of the Red Dragons.
As a member of the Red Dragons, Crassus knew his own kind's temper well. If he had brought Ronin and Winlessa with him, they probably wouldn't even have had a chance to meet Queen Alexstasa. However, the threat of the Scourge is great, and he believes that it is incumbent upon the Red Dragons to participate in the confrontation with the Lich King - and perhaps the Burning Legion behind it.
"Ah, who do I see? Isn't this Clay Ostraz? "When you come to the Red Dragon Sanctuary, the Red Dragon who is guarding outside makes a mocking sound when it sees Crassus." Or should I call your human name - Crassus? ”
Cleostraz is his own name, and "Crassus" is a pseudonym given to Dalaran when he became an elven mage of his height. He said patiently, "I ask to see Queen Alexstaza. ”
The other red dragon sneered, "We thought you would always be hanging out with low-level humans, and you wouldn't want to be happy!" How did you remember to come back? ”
"Do you finally remember who you are as a red dragon?"
"Take me to the Queen!" Claiostraz let out a roar, her long narrow pupils fixed on his kind.
The red dragon, who was staring at him, was frightened and took a few steps back. As gatekeepers, they are far inferior to the queen's young spouses.
Finally, he was taken to the lair of the Red Dragon Queen Alexstrasa.
The figure he was so concerned about was lying on top of a pile of dragon eggs, squinting slightly to hatch them. This is the largest and oldest of the Red Dragons - she is Alexstasa, the Queen of the Red Dragons.
"It's you, Claostraz!" The Red Dragon Queen looked at him in surprise, "Come here, we haven't seen each other in years!" Come closer, let me take a good look at you! ”
"Alexstasa, my Queen!" Cryostraz looked affectionately at his favorite dragon, stepped forward with his claws, bowed his head, and gently touched the neck of the red dragon queen.
"Let me guess, have you decided to return to us?" Alexstasza looked expectantly at her favorite spouse. Even she didn't want Cloostraz to be in the company of humans all the time, because they were guardian dragons after all, and as the guardians of Azeroth, they shouldn't be overly involved in mortal affairs.
In particular, the Red Dragon Clan was greatly damaged in the last Orc Invasion War, and the population is very scarce - staying in the Red Dragon Holy Land, they will give birth to more dragon eggs and raise more new young dragons together is the most important thing!
Cleostraz felt a pain in his heart, and he was a little unable to face his lover's gaze: "No, I have more important things to ......"
He slowly recounted the beginning and end of the Scourge Legion, as well as the threat of the Lich King and the Burning Legion behind it, and finally said, "Queen Alexstaza, we Red Dragons are the guardians of life, and we cannot do nothing in the face of this catastrophe of the living. What's more, there is also the support of the Burning Legion behind this. You must remember the catastrophe caused by these demons 10,000 years ago. ”
"I know all of what you're saying, but—" Alexstasa looked at her lover, "Nozdom warned me not long ago not to get involved in this disaster. Because it will not affect the dragons, and in the end, neither the Undead Scourge nor the Burning Legion will be able to escape the fate of defeat. ”
"No, no, my queen, we can't think like that." Cleostraz shook his head, of course he knew the name of the Lord of Time, Nozdom, but this dragon king was becoming more and more abnormal. The Titans gave the Bronze Dragons the ability to travel through time, and Nozdom incorporated the scales with his divine powers into the timeline and watched the world unfold. But after a long time, he became a little insane - he sent his bronze dragon to collect antiques and all sorts of novelties of interest for him from the past and the future. And less and less attention is paid to their own responsibility - to guard the timeline.
The bronze dragon king is mired in "fatalism", believing that the future is predestined and that any attempt to change is futile, so he loses interest in the outside world.
Cleostraz remembers the last time he sent Ronin to save the Red Dragon Queen from being enslaved by the orcs ten years ago, and asked Nozdom to help him deal with the fallen black dragon Deathwing Nesario. But the Lord of Time has no interest in this, for he sees the destruction of Deathwing in the future.
Although he eventually participates in the fight against Deathwing, his attitude grows more and more strange and negative. Even reluctantly reluctantly saving Alexstasa, who is also a guardian dragon, and then gradually lost in the rhapsody of time and fate.
"If we help mortals, our world will suffer many fewer disasters. Isn't that what it takes to be a guardian of life? Maybe when we don't do anything, they can still win in the end. But when we can do what we can—even what we should do—the world will be less traumatized. Isn't it worth it? ”
“…… You have a point, Clay Ostraz. But we Red Dragons can't afford another war - you should know how our population is now. Alexstaza shook his head, his eyes full of embarrassment and guilt, "There's really nothing we can do. ”
"No, Queen, it's not like we're going to war. They are only here to get something. "Something that doesn't cost us much, but it can fight the plague." ”
