Chapter 868: Fuxi? Woe to you?
At about 10 o'clock in the morning of the next day, Dagran, who had been drunk last night, finally woke up leisurely.
Most of the soldiers of the coalition army who participated in the banquet and got drunk were still lying on their beds and falling asleep, and it seemed that it was difficult to wake up until noon.
As an alcoholic dwarf, Dagran is by no means the first hangover.
What surprised him was that he didn't have a splitting headache when he woke up after being drunk this time, and it was as refreshing as if he had just slept normally.
Although Moira didn't know what Sarian had done, she had watched Sarren emit those green glows full of vitality, and Dargran's state was eighty percent related to this.
Anyway, now that the battle has been fought and the feats have been celebrated, it's time for Dagran and Moira to discuss how the Black Iron Kingdom should develop in the post-fire elemental era.
First of all, the two couples agree on one point of view.
The Black Iron Kingdom cannot continue to close itself off in the Black Stone Mountain, and must actively go out and re-engage with the world.
If you want to get out of Blackstone Mountain, the Black Iron Dwarf has another factor that needs to be considered.
It was the Blackstone Orcs who also settled in the Blackstone Mountains.
The previous Black Iron King originally intended to use the tribe to attack the inherent order of the Alliance, hoping to weaken the Copperbeard Dwarves and expand the Black Iron Dwarves' sphere of influence.
His ideas are beautiful, but the reality is sometimes cruel.
The seemingly invincible tribe not only failed to defeat the alliance as the old kingdom wanted, but also personally performed a play for him called it easy to invite the gods and send the gods.
The old kingdom's calculations were good, and the remnants of the tribal army under Red and Maim alone could not pose any substantial threat to the Black Iron Dwarves with the fire element behind them.
However, the old king scratched his head and didn't expect that this group of lost dogs would actually have something to do with the rebellious black dragon who had long planned to occupy the magpie's nest.
The black dragon and the fire elemental are both subordinates of the ancient god Enzos, and according to common sense, they should be allies.
However, this is not the case.
There are many mountains and factions within the ancient god forces, and it is common for different factions to cooperate with each other and fight each other.
The old king even licked his face and begged to meet the King of the Fire Demons, asking his master to put pressure on the black dragon and let them take the blackstone orcs out of Blackstone Mountain, the base of the black iron dwarves.
Would Nefarian be afraid of Ragnaros?
Answer: No.
If it was Ragnaros who had entered the material world, the arrogant Nefarian would have to retreat.
But a clone who can't leave the heart of the molten fire, the arrogant black dragon prince really doesn't care about it.
As long as you can't attack the underground molten cave of the Molten Heart, which has long been a domain, there is nothing the fire elemental that seems to be sitting on the home field can do anything about the black dragon with amazing flame resistance.
Under the attitude of the two sides not giving in to each other, this local conflict dragged on into an eight-year war of resistance, from the 6th year of the Black Gate after the end of the Second Orc War to the 14th year of the Black Gate, and there is still no sign of ending.
The biggest headache for Dagran is that the Blackstone Orcs occupy the upper part of the Blackstone Mountain, which is equivalent to controlling the entrance out of the mountain.
If they want to regain control of the gate of Blackstone Mountain, the Black Iron Dwarves will inevitably have to fight with the Blackstone Orcs.
The Black Iron Elites, who had just experienced a bitter battle in the Heart of Molten, were still very tired, and now was not the best time to go to war.
And Dagran had other ideas in mind.
Through this battle of the Molten Heart, which was almost completely planned, Salian showed his big-picture vision and planning skills in front of Dagran and Moira.
Moira still hasn't figured out how Sarren was able to convince the Fire Elemental and Wind Elemental to help in this battle.
Had it not been for the Water Essence and Sunderland's struggle to slay the Clone of the Fire Demon King, the losses suffered by the coalition in this war would never have been as light as they are now.
Although Dagran is still young, he can be regarded as a man of great talent among the princes and kings of Black Iron in the past.
Unlike the previous kings who had been staring at the kingdom of Kazmodan desperately trying to find fault, Dagran had absorbed a lot of knowledge from the outside world from Moira, and his eyes had long since turned to the whole of Azeroth, and he was no longer narrowly confined to the infighting of the three dwarves.
With the help of Quel'Thalas, who defeated the fire elemental and completely freed themselves from the shackles around the necks of all the Black Iron Dwarves, the wider world opened its arms to the Black Iron Dwarves, and Dagran was even more determined to open up his body and mind and embrace the world.
After some discussion with Queen Moira, Dagran decided to ask the Marquis of Deep Shadow for advice to see if he could find a way to avoid the conflict with the Blackstone Orcs and reclaim the gates of Blackstone Mountain.
Before that, though, Dagran intends to fulfill his ...... first Or rather, the promise of the Black Iron Royal Family to Sarren.
……
"Marquis of the Deep Shadow."
Dagran solemnly handed over a black stone tablet with rune seals engraved on the surface to Sarjan.
"This is the summoning record left by the first king of the Black Iron Kingdom, and it is also the source of the suffering of the Black Iron Dwarves who have been enslaved for more than 200 years."
Dagran's expression was a little gloomy and he said, "Although some councilors think that this stone tablet is an important legacy of the Black Iron Royal Family and should not be given to outsiders rashly, I don't think so. ”
"This thing is a disaster, if you continue to keep him in Dark Furnace City, maybe when there will be a relict who admires the fire element to steal it out at any cost and summon the King of Fire Demons again."
Dagran's concerns are not unfounded.
The fire elemental has enslaved the Black Iron Dwarves for more than 200 years, and the resulting effects cannot be eliminated in a day or two.
Even at the moment when the fire element was completely defeated, there were still many servile people within the Black Iron Dwarf who tried to recall the fire elemental and wagged their tails and begged for mercy, as if they didn't know how to live without their master.
For at least a few years to come, while Dagran and Moira are moving forward with all their might, they will also need to keep an eye on the undercurrents within the Black Iron Kingdom.
Rather than leaving the source of this evil cause that attracted the fire element in Darkfurnace City, it is better to simply send it away far away, completely cutting off the thoughts of those who have evil intentions.
Sareen was no longer the fledgling, ignorant rookie he had been, and he could hear the meaning and concerns of Dagran's words.
But he didn't care.
Regardless of the hidden dangers hidden within the Black Iron Dwarves, Salian was determined to take the far-reaching stone tablet with him.
Naga's ambition to dominate the sea has long been revealed, and if they continue to expand like this, once the agreed ten-year period has passed, the overwhelming Naga will inevitably rush to land again like a tide.
Relying on the unled free water elementals of the material world of Azeroth alone, it is difficult to pose a real threat to the powerful Naga Empire.
Sarean is ready to change this situation, adding a lot of worries to Naga through various methods, so that they can't go free to invade the land with all their might.
Since the original Thoresen was able to communicate with the king of the fire element with a special summoning technique, as long as this summoning technique was slightly improved, it was theoretically possible to summon the clones of the king of the elements other than the fire element to the material world.
Azeroth has a very large number of the four elements, but these elemental beings who remain in the material world are not bound by the king of the elements, they are all wild.
If Nepturon can cast a doppelganger in the material world, as the leader of all the water elementals, he should be able to gather a large number of free wild water elementals for his own use, like Ragnaros, and cause great trouble to Naga wherever water exists.
And due to the non-waterless nature of the water element, the difficulty of Neptulon projecting a clone is far below that of Ragnaros.
Azeroth has a roughly 4-to-6 ratio of land to sea area, and wherever there is water, it is home to the water elemental.
Theoretically, Neptulon's clone will not be bound to the heart of the molten like Ragnaros, and will be able to travel through the ocean at will.
However, the actual situation still needs to be communicated and judged with Nepturon himself, and it is not easy for Sarayan to make rash conclusions.
After receiving the slate from Dagran, Sarren did not rush to unseal and study, but carefully placed it into the space to wrap it first.
Judging by the looks of Dagran and Moira, they should still have something to say.
Salian smiled and took the initiative to speak: "Your Majesty Dagran, Queen Moira, we can also be regarded as comrades-in-arms who have shared hardships, so you might as well speak up if you have something to say." ”
"As long as it's within my ability, Salian Deep Shadow will never shirk."
With Sarren's assurance, Dagran and Moira's somewhat nervous expressions were visibly soothed.
Dagran sighed softly and said, "What I want to ask is if the Marquis of Deep Shadow has a way to help the Black Iron Dwarves regain control of the Black Stone Mountain Gate without causing a large-scale conflict. ”
