Chapter 49: The Situation in Theramore
In total, it took less than three years to develop the island, but the speed at which the port city is growing is amazing to everyone. It has become a prosperous city and port that is not weaker than Ratchet City. The competition between the goblins and the Jasper Collar is very cruel and fierce, and with the Jasper Collar's good reputation and good connections in the Eastern Continent, coupled with Brad's high prestige in the alliance, most of the merchants who travel back and forth between the two continents will gather in Theramore.
Compared to other races, the Night Elves are also a race that is not bad for money, since the Jasper Collar opened Theramore, the Night Elves have maintained good trade relations with Theramore, and the Night Elves are also the only race that completely gave up trade with goblins and completely turned to Theramore. It was the Night Elves' full support that gave Theramore a strong support.
There are two sides to everything, and without the loss of the trade of the Night Elves, the trade of the goblins has shrunk a lot. The ancient race of the Night Elves, his background is undoubted, he is the most powerful race in the world of Azeroth, there is no one.
The Jasper Leader has shrunk the goblin trade by ninety percent in the Eastern Continent, and has occupied half of the country in Kalimdor, how the goblins are not angry, and the great feud of Brad burning Ratchet City, the goblins are always looking for opportunities for revenge.
It's just that the goblins knew that it would be difficult to fulfill this wish with their own strength, until not long ago, a powerful figure discussed cooperating with the goblins and working together to deal with the Jasper Territory on the two continents, and the goblins of Goblin Ratchet City readily agreed.
And Theramore also knew that the goblins wanted to destroy Theramore all the time, so they went all out to build a new port. The big wolf is not stupid either. Although Morgana has not been in Theramo for a very long time, because of the existence of the Grand Teleporter, Theramore has been developing normally and orderly under Morgana's intervention.
The big wolf is not stupid. On the contrary, he is very talented, and after more than two years of experience, he has entered the role of the city lord. The construction of Theramore is also very smooth.
The Dust Swamp is home to the ogres of Kogar, the Black Dragon Legion and the Dragonman Legion, the convergence and transportation of various building materials is not a problem at all, and a large number of adventurers have joined the construction of the port city. Especially for guilds settled in Jasper, not only can they get contributions, but they also know that their guild can get a station in the city.
Kalimdo is very dangerous. Each map looks unowned, but in fact it is divided into territories. Not to mention general, even a powerful guild. It is also difficult to gain a foothold without a lord's order. Even the Ancient Tree Lords and Insect Lords were towns founded by taking refuge in the aborigines, without the aid of the natives. The adventurers are not villages and strongholds at all. Even so, the place they chose for the Ancient Tree Lords was very remote.
But what adventurers rely on now is to accept the employment and commissions of the aborigines. And what's the point of building a village in a remote place. Theramore: It's different. Many discerning adventurers know that this is bound to become a thriving port.
Unlike Ratchet adventurers, who can only stay in hotels, it is very tempting to have their own place to stay here, and to have a sky of their own in the bustling city. Even the Brilliant Guilds with their own strongholds, they may be influential among the adventurers, but they are nothing in the eyes of the natives.
Owning a station and gaining some perks in Theramore meant that adventurers were crazy about contributing to the construction of Theramore.
Due to Morgana's consideration of the war, the whole of Theramore was temporarily divided into three regions. They are the port area, the administrative area, and the adventure area.
Port area. As the name suggests, of course, next to the sea, this area is mainly a large warehouse. Acting as a transit point, Morgana has, of course, built the largest casino in Kalimdor on the main arteries and even on the sea, thanks to the casino's money. It's a crowded place, and of course it's also home to the Navy.
The borough, which is also the Aboriginal area, is the true heart of Theramore. The Council Hall, the Magic Tower, the Grand Teleportation Tower, the Aboriginal settlements, and the garrison are mainly concentrated in this area, which is the core area of Theramore.
Of course, the adventure area is a gathering place for adventurers, which is equivalent to the old town of Jasper Collar, and it is also a market centered on night markets, where a large number of adventurers gather, and of course, the Jasper Collar market is also settled here. Auction houses, banks, and trainers of various professions, everything is available, and banks and auctions are very convenient for adventurers, and the direct use of the system can be as convenient as the operation of the game, which is one of the attractions of Theramore. And there are professional trainers here who are sound in crime, herbs, skinning, and skinning are the most popular professions here, although the swamp is dangerous, but a large number of crocodiles, velociraptors and other beasts are inexhaustible. A large amount of high-quality fur is not only exported, but also digested by adventurers.
In two years, it has been extremely prosperous. Although the amount of trade is not as large as that of Ratchet City, it is still more prosperous.
It's just that now, although Theramore is also very lively, the whole city is slaughtered. A large number of troops on the island fought against each other and fought each other.
Aurelia and Braumus took the lead out of the Grand Teleportation Tower, and behind them were Sylvanas and Winlessa, who had been followed by the Windranger couple, and Winlessa had already held a coming-of-age ceremony, but she and Sylvanas didn't like each other, and she asked for a part of the Ranger and Mage troops to leave the Windranger Tower and camp in the Daron Mill area.
But the two sisters were very kind to Aurelia, and the Windrangers knew they were coming to Theramore, and feared that they would make another mistake, so they followed. And the two sisters are not at ease, anyway, Quel'Thalas is very calm now, they know that even if the orcs attack Lordaeron again this time, it is impossible to suddenly attack the elven kingdom. Because the elves have set up a sentry at the junction.
The big wolf and the little wolf had been waiting outside for a long time, and when they saw Aurelia, they hurriedly saluted and said, "I've seen two ladies." ”
The men behind the wolf also saluted and saluted Aurelia.
Aurelia raised her hand and said, "Big wolf, don't be so polite, you're Brad's brother, and if he sees it, he might blame me." ”
"What Madame said is, I'll pay attention next time." Big Wolf said that he was cautious and knew that Brad was very different from the previous Little Tiger. The two are too different in strength and status.
The original Brad left him with so much shock that he couldn't even believe that he was Xiaohu. What's more, he is now the consul of Theramore, and Brad is a lord, so the etiquette that should be paid attention to is still to be paid attention to. It didn't matter in private, he knew that Brad didn't care, but he had to give face to the Lord's Mansion in public. Brad's face is not his alone, but represents the entire Jasper Collar, if he is so casual on a formal occasion, it will inevitably make others look down on the Jasper Collar.
Aurelia nodded and introduced her family to the big wolf, and said as she walked towards the city wall, "Big wolf, how is the current form?" ”
The big wolf said while leading the way: "Madam, the current form has basically stabilized, and it is basically impossible for the goblins to break through Theramore, and the big teleportation tower was opened two days ago, and we have received support, and we are officially preparing to counterattack." ”
"Your Excellency Big Wolf, can you tell me about the specific situation, I don't know yet." Sylvanas said.
"I'm sorry, I was negligent." The big wolf already knew their origin and identity after being introduced, and knew that it was Aurelia's mother's family, and this time he was here to help, so he smiled apologetically and said, "That's the case, a few days ago, specifically five days ago in the middle of the night. The goblins launched a surprise attack on Theramore. The attack was so violent that it caught us off guard, because we didn't get any news, let alone any news from the shadows. I didn't expect anyone to dare to attack Theramore. ”
Aurelia said, "The shadow also had an accident, when my son was kidnapped, and Stratholme and Jasper Collar were also in a mess, so they didn't support Theramore in time. ”
"Madame, it's all because of our incompetence, and we don't have any vigilance at all. It wouldn't be like this if we were prepared. The big wolf hurriedly said, he is very able to correct his position, the Jasper Collar is a new structure The time is too short, and Brad is also a pioneering lord, it can be said that the existence of the Jasper Collar is entirely because of Brad, and the entire Jasper Collar has not yet condensed. And it's this kind of family situation, even if Aurelia and they deal with it wrongly, can Brad kill his wife, just kidding, it's simply impossible. There is no point in investigating the reason, and by admitting his mistakes, he will not lose points, but will make a good impression.
"Madame, that's right. At that time, the Blackwater pirates attacked the port at night and sank a lot of ships, but fortunately the navy's warships were all in the inner harbor, otherwise we would have suffered heavy losses. On land, boars and centaurs and some ogres attacked, and some adventurers in the adventure zone rebelled and opened the outermost gates, and by the time we could reflect on it, it was too late. Fortunately, with the cover of the Dragonman Legion, the casualties were not too large, and most of them had already withdrawn to the dock area. Because it is impossible to distinguish between friend and foe, the adventurer's guild has been monitored in the port area. ”
Aurelia nodded clearly and said, "As far as I know, Theramore's defense force is not too weak, how can it lose a city in an instant." This is also what she is puzzled about, the army led by Jasper may not be too much, but the equipment and quality are absolutely first-class...... (To be continued......)
