Chapter 56 Meetings

Although Pandora's reply didn't make Shen Yi come up with a definite answer, it was not enough to make Shen Yi care too much. This is not Shen Yi's carelessness, but people's energy is limited after all, and it is impossible to be suspicious of everything. If that's the case, you'll be a soldier. Traps may exist, but that doesn't mean they can't be avoided.

It's like you can ambush halfway, or I can spread scouts, as long as you do what you need to do every day, you don't necessarily have to understand the conspiracy to save the day.

Since Liu Sen has already said that there is no need for the people of the Broken Blade Team to go, then no matter what problems arise in the Ice Lake two days later, it will not be his Broken Blade Team who is unlucky.

Therefore, in the past two days, Shen Yi has to deal with internal affairs first.

It was at this time that Gentleness told Shen Yi one thing - her inheritance task was completed.

In the original Legacy mission, the Dark Ranger was tasked with Tavius. But after Gentleness kills Arceth, Sylvanas directly approves of Tenderness and acquiesces that she has completed the final task.

Although it is true that the most hated person by the dark ranger Sylvanas is Arceus himself, from the perspective of the plot, killing ArcΓ©s is indeed more effective than killing Tavius, but due to the limitations of urban missions, it stands to reason that this change should not occur.

Just like the bargaining between Decca Kane and Shen Yi, knowing that Shen Yi's behavior was to "save the world", it was still impossible for him to be generous enough to give Shen Yi the book of appraisal and the book of returning to the city.

I didn't expect this to happen this time, and it is estimated that this is related to the plot change caused by the girl in white.

Then there are some small tasks that Sylvanas gave her, mainly to test her endowment qualifications. Unaware of the existence of such a thing as an urban system, Gentle needs to prove that she has the power to wield her. These tasks are not too difficult, so from now on, Gentle has actually begun to learn abilities from Sylvanas, but her main direction of learning is silence and charms, and she is not very interested in dark arrows and life absorption.

The former, like Frostmourn, is the ability to transform the dead into undead, but it has no effect on adventurers, while the latter can absorb the target's life to replenish itself, but it cannot move itself. Since movement is directly related to the ability to evade blows, and Gentle is a speed-oriented adventurer, he is not too interested in this skill. So all she wants is the last two skills and a career.

In addition to being gentle, Vina and King Kong have also improved by leaps and bounds in their professional inheritance by killing Arceus. Since neither the current Paladin nor the King of the Hill are original Warcraft characters, the hatred for Arceth comes from indirect rather than direct, so the final quest cannot be skipped directly like Sylvanas.

But at least Vena and King Kong don't have to challenge Tavius first, but go directly to the final ring, and when they kill Tavius, they will get the official inheritance. And before that, the two of them actually followed their goals and began to learn various basic abilities.

The real trouble was Zhou Yiyu, killing Arces had no effect on him to obtain the inheritance of the Goblin Tinker, and the result was that he still had to find an alchemist to fight first.

This challenge had actually started two hours earlier, and the result was that Zhou Yiyu had barely passed ten moves with the alchemist with Hera's help before he was beaten by him.

Fortunately, this old goblin is not a murderer, and finally let Zhou Yiyu go. He barely completed the challenge with the sheer "kindness of the enemy". Although it was completed, the mission evaluation was pitifully low.

According to Zhou Yiyu: "The tinker was very dissatisfied with my performance, saying that I was barely qualified. It would be nice if I could learn one of his abilities in this way. The problem is that all four of his abilities are suitable for me, and I want them all the......"

As a result, Hong Lang replied: "It's okay, you pick the one you can learn first, and after the big deal, we'll help you kill him, maybe you can burst out other scrolls." ”

Zhou Yiyu shuddered, thinking that he hadn't apprenticed yet, and he was already ready to deceive the teacher and destroy the ancestors.

It was Shen Yi who gave Zhou Yiyu an idea and helped him find a few other small tasks, asking him to show his mechanical talent in front of the tinker as much as possible, maybe it could arouse the old guy's love for talent.

Zhou Yiyu was very skeptical that it was useless, and Shen Yi replied: "If it was before, it would probably be useless." But now things have changed. The city's control over the world has weakened, and it is no longer the city that determines the direction of the world, but the inertia of the plot and the promotion of adventurers, I think you can try it. ”

As the control of the city is weakened by the girl in white, the development of this world depends more on its own inertia in addition to the pre-designed track.

To put it simply, the power of the quest NPCs has increased.

They used to be able to make decisions only within the scope of the mission, but now they have a certain chance of jumping out of the scope of the mission, which is a big reason why Sylvanas will directly acquiesce to the Legacy Mission. That's why the girl in white said that the subsequent changes would be guided by the adventurer.

Of course, these are just Shen Yi's analysis, but they are basically not wrong.

The question now is, how can Shen Yi take advantage of this and control the plot trend in his own hands.

While they were considering, a soldier came in: "Your Excellency, the chief of Carlos has invited you to come over to the meeting. ”

"What meeting?"

"It was a meeting about the capture of Hyjal Castle in a few days. ”

"Got it, I'll go over now, you go down. ”

One of the great advantages of being a leader is that you can directly participate in high-level meetings, although you may not be able to determine the overall direction, at least you can exert your own influence and get some inside information in advance.

Especially in the case that the control of this city has been greatly weakened and the autonomy of NPCs has been greatly increased, whoever has more influence on NPCs and whose words carry more weight will determine the future battle situation. Of course, provided you don't be an idiot.

The soldier did not leave, but hesitated for a moment and said, "My lord, there are several captains waiting for you outside the camp, saying that they want to join your command. ”

Shen Yi was stunned, knowing that more adventurers had already reacted.

He said to the fat man: "You are their future deputy commander, you can go and entertain it, the conditions are what was said earlier." Remember to leave a place for the knife, I'll go to the meeting first. ”

"Got it. The fat man nodded in agreement.

Look at the fat man's smile, Shen Yi doesn't like it no matter how he looks at it. He walked over and slapped the fat man's face a few times, smoothing the smile on his face: "The way you smile is too silly, it gives people the impression that you are a bully." Remember, treat your subordinates with dignity. If you can't do both Dewei and Wei, then have Wei first, and then think about Germany. Don't laugh, be serious. ”

Seeing that the fat man's expression was almost fiddling, Shen Yi said to Gentle Hong Lang: "You help him, it should be regarded as another test for him." ”

Saying that, Shen Yi left the camp and walked towards the big tent in the army.

――――――――――――

It was already dark by this time.

There was a little light in the big tent.

A row of elite orc soldiers were guarding the door, and when they saw Shen Yi coming, they saluted him one after another.

Entering the tent, I saw Carlos, Baini, Rokhan and others discussing around a long conference table, on which was placed a sand table, which was a miniature model of Hyjal Castle.

At the bottom of them, there are ten leaders of the orc camp, and now with Shen Yi, there are eleven.

At the top of the conference table, the tall orc with a fierce appearance, a pair of sharp fangs, and a hammer stuck in his back should be the prophet Girono.

If you look at the appearance alone, no matter how you look at it, this prophet does not look like a mage-type hero.

"Mistress Girono, Mistress Lokhan, Mistress Carlos, Mistress Baini, and a few other Lords. Shen Yi saluted everyone in the meeting.

His greetings were just right, and even the order of salutation was according to the status of the chiefs. Gironno is the first leader of the orc camp, so naturally he should be placed at the forefront, and Rock Khan is the older generation of plot characters who have followed Sal, and he is the oldest, so he ranks second. Carlos and Whiteney are in no particular order, but Carlos is his teacher anyway, so it should be placed in front.

Orcs usually don't pay much attention to etiquette due to their rough temperament, but that doesn't mean they hate polite people, especially after the young man had just finished swooping out of the undead camp and saving Carlos.

At this moment, Gironno glanced at Shen Yi with great appreciation, and then said, "A very outstanding young man, Carlos, you have accepted a good student." ”

Carlos replied, "That's true." Unfortunately, he already has his own lineage, and I can't accept him as my official student. ”

But that doesn't mean he can't inherit our power. Bonney replied. Chen Yuntao is also a professional person, and he can't accept his entire inheritance, so he said so.

"That's true, especially since this young man has done something that even we can't...... Kill the Lich King Arceus. ”

The death of the Lich King Arceth did not seem to have officially spread, so much so that when Lockhan said this, there was an immediate exclamation of surprise among the commanders.

"Is Arceth dead?"

"Did he do it?"

"How is this possible?"

"It's incredible. ”

"No wonder he dared to break into the undead camp alone, it seems that he really has some ability. ”

Doubts, admiration, exclamations, all kinds of voices came one after another, and even the eyes of the commanders who looked at Shen Yi became a little different.

Gironno coughed lightly: "Silence, since everyone has arrived, now the meeting begins." Rock Khan, tell us a little bit about the situation at the foot of Mount Hyjal. ”

Among the four major orc leaders, Lockhan is in charge of front-line reconnaissance, Carlos and Baini are in charge of the battle, and Gironno is in charge of the overall situation.

At this moment, Gironno pointed to the sand table and said: "According to the information obtained from previous reconnaissance, there are about three thousand Burning Legionnaire soldiers in Hyjal Castle who are responsible for guarding it. Although the number of soldiers is small, nearly one-third of the force is Doomsday Guard, and the strength should not be underestimated. But the real trouble is not these guardians, but the large number of Hell warships and Towers of Doom that are placed all over the castle. Among them, the Hell Battleship has an attack power of 150, a defense of 20, and an armor value of 1500. The Tower of Doom has 200 ATK, 30 DEF, and 2000 armor. Their attacks are defensive in nature, so these batteries can be the ultimate guardian of Hyjal Castle, and if we can't solve this level, we will be killed no matter how many troops we have on it. ”

Gironno asked, "Have you found out where and how many of these batteries are located?"

Lockhan shook his head: "Not yet. At present, it is known that there are no less than thirty of these batteries, and the power information of these two types of batteries alone has cost me twelve excellent scouts. ”

Shen Yi coughed lightly: "Lord Lockhan, please forgive me for interrupting your speech, I would like to make a small addition to your explanation." ”

"Oh?" Lockhan looked at Shen Yi in surprise, "What do you want to say?"

"In fact...... There are not thirty of the turrets, but ninety, spread over the three layers of defense of Hyjal Castle, and your scouts should only see the thirty batteries of the first layer of defense, but they obviously don't have a chance to enter the last two levels. ”

"What did you say?" the four leaders were taken aback at the same time.

Carlos stared at Shen Yi: "Have you been to Hygar Castle?"

"Yes, sneaking in, my lord, after you've taught me something about the Swift Walk. ”

"That's not enough to get you into the castle. ”

"Add a stealth potion and you're good to go. Shen Yi replied in a loud voice.

The four leaders looked at each other.

Lockhan sighed, "Well, I think I sent the wrong person to this mission. Can you tell me more about the castle?"

"Yes, sir. Shen Yi replied respectfully: "Regarding the defensive power of the Hell Battleship and the Tower of Destruction, it doesn't seem very high, but in fact, there is a layer of external armor on the periphery of these turrets. With these external armors, the defense of the turret has been increased again, so the fort's own defense is actually higher than we know. It's just that they won't appear until wartime, so our scouts haven't found out. But when it comes time to actually attack the castle, when we send a large number of soldiers to attack these batteries, we will undoubtedly suffer a big loss. ”

"This is important!" Girlenno said immediately, "So is there any way you can solve this problem?"

"Yes, my lord, all turrets need energy generators to support them in order to fight. In Hyjal Castle, there are actually three energy generators supporting the ninety batteries. They are the biggest weakness of the Hyjal defense system. If we can send someone into the castle and take down the energy generator before the war begins, half of the castle will fall into our hands. ”

The four leaders looked at each other, their hearts moving at the same time.

At this time, Shen Yi's true intention finally came to the surface.

In fact, although the armor of those turrets does exist, it is far from being as strong as Shen Yi said, Shen Yi used word games to blur everyone's concept, making everyone mistakenly think that the external armor of these forts is strong and unpressable, so they can only think of a way from the inside.

In fact, the Siege of Hyjal itself is based on the battle of the elves in Warcraft against the Elven Lords of the Borderlands, McGothridan.

The lack of imagination in the city is pitiful, and many things can only be copied from the original. The Siege of Hyjal is a copy of the Elven campaign, and the Siege of Hyjal is a copy of the Turret model.

The only difference is that the city wants adventurers to storm Hyjal Castle, so the fort defense is not as strong as the original, and it is much easier to tear down than the original.

But Shen Yi, who included the optional tasks in the plan, was naturally reluctant to just dismantle these forts. Therefore, he needs to weave a lie and advise the leaders to abandon the assault plan and instead let the elite team capture Hyjal Castle from within.

In this way, when the optional mission is enabled, Shen Yi will have ninety turrets at his disposal. Of course, it's different from the turret mode, where a whole bunch of monsters march silly and bombard at your disposal. The attacking Burning Legion will destroy these batteries, but something is better than nothing.

What's more, the whole army took Hyjal Castle and the elite troops captured Hyjal from the inside, and the meritorious deeds established were completely different - just like the knife imagined, Shen Yi, who became the commander, not only had the power to participate in political affairs, but also had the opportunity to grab the highest glory and meritorious service.

Adventurers who have not obtained enough official positions are absolutely not eligible to apply for this opportunity.

In addition to all of these benefits, the greatest advantage is that the orc faction can leave the vast majority of its forces outside the city to defend against the other three factions from behind raids and troublemakers, and enter the castle after the internal capture is completed, thus occupying the castle almost unharmed, laying the foundation for the optional missions that follow.

With so many reasons, Shen Yi is going to fight for it no matter what.

Fortunately, although the orcs were barbaric and rude, they were not really stupid, and they could also see the benefits of Shen Yi's plan, so they talked about it and thought it was feasible.

However, some people objected, and Lockhan said: "Since the energy generator is so important, it is impossible for the Burning Legion not to send heavy troops to guard it. ”

"Yes, my lord, but that doesn't justify us giving up. Shen Yi's face did not change.

Bai Ni said: "We don't have enough invisibility potions to support a large army to enter the castle, the existing invisibility potions are only three hundred bottles, considering that Hyjal Castle has a three-tier defense system, which means that we can only send a team of a hundred people into the castle at most." I doubt that such a small person can do anything, maybe he didn't do anything, and he was eaten by the other party first. ”

"So we're going to send the real elite in. Shen Yi continued.

"You don't want to say that you can complete this task, do you?" Carlos saw Shen Yi's thoughts, in fact, with the contact with Shen Yi, he also got to know Shen Yi more and more.

Obviously, there was nothing he didn't dare to do.

Shen Yi smiled slightly: "If I can go in the first time, I will naturally be able to go in the second time." ”

This is clearly a lie.

All his information about Hyjal Castle comes from Lan Yan's materials. However, the three-dimensional image on the computer has already clearly listed all the defense systems, roads, and guard strength in the castle, even if someone who has entered it once, it is impossible to know more about the guards of Hyjal than Shen Yi. In this respect, he can't be said to be lying.

Carlos glanced at Shen Yi deeply, and after a while, he finally said, "It seems that I have to increase the time I have to teach you...... If you can fully master the Wind Walk in three days, then at least we can save three invisibility potions and send one more good soldier to increase our chances of success. ”

Shen Yi smiled: "Then thank you, sir." ”

"I should thank you, my student, for your great contribution to the tribe...... When that day comes, I'll go in with you. ”

At this moment, Carlos finally officially recognized Shen Yi's student status, even if he couldn't accept his full inheritance.

The Blood Emblem prompts again: Carlos' opinion of you has increased, and his current opinion is 450.

All orc bosses have an increased opinion of you, and the current opinion is 100 points.

――――――――――――

PS: The favorability of other orc leaders towards Shen Yi is fifty points for saving Carlos, and fifty points for the current one. There are some things that I really don't have time to write, OK, that's all.
