Chapter 1342: Lordaeron's Tradition – Father's Kindness and Son's Filial Piety
Titus Rivendell is the modern-day Baron of Rivendell, who contracted a strange and incurable disease at an early age.
Driven by his survival instincts, Titus accepted the invitation of Kel'thugad, whose moral values were very different from those of normal people, and gradually transformed himself into an undead.
In order to leave an offspring for the Rivendell family, the sickly Titus married and had children before he officially became the undead.
It wasn't until his son grew up and was no longer at risk of dying that Titus let go of his worries and was transformed into a ghost with his wife, Annastari.
Ironically, however, the initiator of the movement to separate the undead and the living that is raging in Stratholme is none other than Titus' son, Orix Rivendell.
According to the information obtained by Backlight Blade, it is obvious that Oryx has the shadow of Lordaeron official behind him.
It should be Queen Caria, who is in charge of the palace, who promised Orix some generous conditions that he could not refuse, so that he took the initiative to stand up against his father, who had long since been turned into an undead.
"Oryx Rivinedell......"
Referring to this young man who was not yet 20 years old, Sarren asked Valilla thoughtfully, "Is this little kid because the conditions given by Lordaeron are too generous, or because he can't accept that his parents are undead?" ”
Valera shrugged, "Who knows, Oryx didn't express his thoughts explicitly. ”
"However, he made a promise to Quel'Thalas, if he could drive out the undead, led by Titus and Annastali, he would continue the family tradition of friendship between Rivendell and Quel'Thalas."
"Heh~"
Sarian tapped his finger on the table meaningfully: "What does he mean by this, does he want us not to get involved in it?" ”
Valeera: "Perhaps, what do you think of his statement?" ”
"I'll sit and watch." Salaan waved his hand disappreciatively: "Since Oryx has this promise, whoever wins the final victory in this internal conflict will not have any effect on Quel'Salas, so let them go." ”
Valera smiled and said, "Isn't it because of the care of Galia's face?" ”
Sarjan rolled her eyes angrily: "What's the matter with Guan Jialia?" You don't think I'm a person who doesn't distinguish between public and private, do you? ”
Valera smiled noncommittally: "Just kidding, anyway, the teacher should have a while, and he can't come back until the situation in Stratholme gradually becomes clear, do you have any special arrangements during this time?" ”
"No~"
Sarian pointed to the large number of drawings that filled the entire desk and said with a wry smile: "I'm afraid I'm going to have to live in the National Defense Weapons Research Institute recently, and finalize these ideas as soon as possible." ”
Valera had also heard from Stella Gossa's terrifying impact on the Dinosaur Legion, and although she didn't have the same acumen as Sareen, she could guess why he was so desperate to develop a new weapon of war.
Without him, he just felt threatened by Zandalara.
After years of hard work by Saren and Kael'thas in and out of the world, the number of countries in Azeroth that can be equal to or even better than Quel'Salas in terms of national power is no more than 3 fingers in full.
Needless to say, this old power with a deep heritage still sits firmly in the first place.
And in second place is Zandalara, who has a large number of demigods Loa.
Since Zandalara's strength mainly relies on external forces, it is impossible for them to dispatch all Loa to attack the enemy at once, and the level of combat power fluctuates a bit greatly.
After the civil war and natural disasters, the Lordaeron Kingdom, which was once the leader of the Eastern Kingdom, has significantly weakened in population and national strength.
Salaan couldn't tell which one was stronger now, Quel'Salas or Lordaeron, because the strength of the two was between the two of them.
After these two inseparable countries, there is the sea kingdom Kul Tiras, who has eaten a lot of meat with Quel'Salas, and Kazmodan, who has just become one of the three tribes and has the full support of the dwarfs.
Lordaeron is on his side, and due to the deep personal relationship between Sarean and Queen Garia, it is unlikely that Lordaeron will have a large-scale conflict with Quel'Salas at least while Galia is still queen.
Saljan also took this reason into account, so he desperately drained his vitality and gave the blessing of life for Jialia to prolong her life.
As for the Night Elves...... Regardless of the fact that the two sides have cooperated quite happily in recent major events, because the people on both sides are still full of hostility and prejudice against each other because of the historical problems left over from 10,000 years ago, the high-level relations between the two countries are quite good.
As the saying goes, if the contradictions between the people of the two sides accumulate to a critical point, as the helmsman of the country, Kael'thas and Malfurion may not be able to pull the reins.
Sarean sincerely hopes that the day will not come when the day will come when Quel'Salas and the Night Republic will go to war, which is undoubtedly the worst-case scenario for those who love and avenge them.
At this stage, the most suitable target for Quel'Thalas's imaginary enemy is undoubtedly Zandalara, who is clearly hostile to the elves.
Having just suffered a loss on the battlefield, Saray will not sit idly by and watch the same situation happen again.
Before the next time he encounters the onslaught of the Dinosaur Legion and even the Demon Tyrannosaurus Legion, Quel'Thalas must come up with a sufficiently effective countermeasure.
This time the local war was only fought with Zandalara's agent Dhakalai, and even if the problem of Loa is not considered, the quality of Zandalara's soldiers is far above Dhakalai, and he cannot relax his vigilance against this before the official conflict with Zandala.
Valilla was not surprised by Sarren's decision, she knew that her man was an idle person, and even if he stayed in the country to engage in internal affairs, he would not let himself lie down and mess up.
"Okay, then I'll stay in the territory during this time to take care of your daily affairs, and by the way, help take care of Xiaoxing's injuries as soon as possible."
……
Returning from Northrend, Salian rested at home for only three days.
After Onexia returned home from Silvermoon City, Sarean confirmed from her that Nefarian had no contact with her in the near future, so he left home for Silvermoon City with a large scroll of blueprints.
"Ah......h
At the Weapons Research Institute of the Ministry of Defense, the researchers who were fishing in the office were all numb when they saw Sarren walking in with a resolute wind.
A senior researcher who could already see the gray hair on his sideburns asked with a wry smile, "Grand Duke of Deep Shadow, we have just submitted the results of the magic guide machine gun, don't you have any more wonderful ideas?" ”
"Smack!"
Salian spread out the drawings in his hand and slapped them on the table with a hearty face: "Valrante, congratulations, you got right, guys, get ready to work overtime." ”
"Oh! No! ”
A wail suddenly came from the Weapons Research Institute, which had been in a relaxed atmosphere before.
One thing to say, the working atmosphere of the Weapons Research Institute is already relatively positive in Quel'Salas, after all, the time concept and work efficiency of the immortal species are ...... It can only be said that everyone who understands understands.
However, compared to Sarren, who had never allowed himself to be idle, the researchers' work was a bit lazy.
Valrant, the director of the Weapons Research Institute, waved his hand helplessly to the cubs behind him: "Okay, don't howl here, the fishing time is over, let's start working." ”
Valente took the initiative to set an example, picking out a random one from a large stack of drawings and looking at it, and his face quickly showed a look of surprise: "This is...... Individual vehicles? ”
The blueprints that Varrant got were military motorcycles drawn by Sarren based on the description of the barrage.
Compared to the regular iron-clad human-type four-wheeled vehicle, the two-wheeled motorcycle, which is a human-clad vehicle, makes Varrant feel very unsafe.
But as the head of the institute, Varrant's expertise is undoubtedly excellent, and he can see at a glance that two-wheeled bikes will be better than four-wheeled bikes in terms of agility.
In addition, Sallian also drew a body of different shapes next to the main body of the motorcycle on the drawing, and even drew a stickman holding a magic gun in the body.
"Hmm...... Interesting. ”
Sarren's drawings piqued Valant's interest, and he walked to the side alone with the drawings, muttering technical terms that outsiders could not understand, as if to verify the feasibility of the drawings.
"Smack!"
Salian clapped his hands, interrupting the researchers who had flipped through the drawings and started discussing with each other.
"Don't rush to do it yet, take a look."
Sarren pulled out the one with the tank drawn from the pile of drawings: "Although we were not defeated in the battle of Zudak this time, our front-line soldiers really suffered a lot under the onslaught of Zandalara's dinosaur army. ”
"It is imperative that we first develop a heavy unit that can counter the enemy."
"This steel chariot is the product of my recent vision, I call it a tank."
"For at least a month in the future, you will put aside the study of other drawings and concentrate on verifying the feasibility of this tank drawing, and strive to complete the drawings as soon as possible and come up with the first version of the finished product for testing."
"Ladies and gentlemen, this is related to whether Quel'Salas can take the initiative on the battlefield in the future, please be cautious."
