"The virtual spirits of the Star Realm Financial Group are the best and most cunning businessmen among the stars."
In the large conference hall of Krokuun's forward base, Nuri Velen was reporting his contact with the ethereal spirits to the generals of the Civilized Alliance stationed in the world of Argus. He did not conceal the true purpose of the ethereal spirits.
He did not hide the truth about the Dark Blade Legion's involvement. He said truthfully:
"After the world of Karesh, the hometown of the void spirit, was destroyed by the powerful void creature, the Devourer of Worlds Dimensius, the former flesh-and-blood creatures also suffered a catastrophe and were transformed into pure energy creatures in the energy field. This is
The origin of the Ethereal, they lost their world, but their race and civilization are still there. The Ethereal, like us Draenei, are all exiles among the stars."
Nuri briefly introduced the history of Void Spirit, and then turned to the main topic:
"Over the past thousands of years, Ethereal has internally divided into three major factions: the Star Realm Consortium, which is keen on doing business, and the Revenge Army, which vows to use all means to avenge Dimensius, the devourer of all realms."
"And because the Revenge Army takes an extreme route, they often involve many innocent planets and species by any means for revenge. This goes against the idea of many virtual spirits doing business, so another group of virtual spirits led by the original node prince Amir
The spirits formed the Order Faction, and while hunting Dimensius, they also specialized in preventing the Revenge Army's endless revenge actions."
"But this time, the three major forces of Ethereal have rarely united together and made a request to Azeroth and the Dark Blade Legion for a joint battle. They promised that they would send Ethereal's fleet to join our war.
, and will also help us purify the threat of Mac'Aree, and share the magical 'Ecological Dome' technology with us."
Nuri's introduction made the generals sitting in the conference room whisper. Although the ethereal spirits are also active in Azeroth, due to the suppression of the Dark Blade Legion, the ethereal spirits can only appear in some remote areas. Azeroth
Lars's life lacks understanding of creatures like virtual spirits.
At this moment when the final battle is coming, it is naturally a good thing to have extra helpers in the cruel war, but the commanders are not stupid. They know very well that an "ally" with ulterior motives is likely to be more powerful than a ruthless and terrifying enemy.
More dangerous.
Ten seconds later, the old general Windsor, who represented the imperial power, raised his hand. The meticulously combed old man looked at Nuri and asked:
"We lack understanding of creatures like ethereal spirits, Commander Nuri, so what I want to ask is, based on your knowledge and experience, do you think these ethereal spirits have a strong will to join this war? Or do I?
Ask more directly.”
"Are they reliable?"
Old Marshal Windsor's straightforward question silenced the entire conference hall. The other generals were also concerned about this issue, but the Draenei commander Nuri did not hesitate. He looked at Windsor.
General, he emphasized:
"The Void Spirits are not reliable. Generals, the Void Spirits are essentially a group of businessmen. Just like the goblins in the world of Azeroth, they pursue interests and are good at calculations. There is no so-called position and loyalty, as long as the benefits are sufficient.
, they can switch to others at any time without being bothered by shame.”
"Hey! You! How can you talk like a Draenei!"
Before Nuri finished speaking, a sharp voice came from behind him. The chairman of the Goblin Bilgewater Consortium, the fat goblin Gallywix, was waving his gorgeous cane and screaming with annoyance:
"We goblins didn't provoke you. Look, we are also responsible for delivering supplies to you! Why are you slandering us like this!"
"Oh, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to denigrate the goblins, Mr. Gallywix."
Nuri apologized awkwardly and said:
"I'm just describing the way the virtual spirits do things. In fact, you goblins and the virtual spirits are indeed very similar in their style of doing things. You are both excellent businessmen."
"Is it enough to just say sorry?"
The fat goblin reluctantly stretched out his hand to straighten his gorgeous high hat decorated with gems. He pretended to be angry and said:
"What you just said has greatly hurt the feelings of our goblins. As a member of the Azeroth Civilization Command, I ask you"
"Pa"
Sitting next to Gallywix, Elder Tor'vir, who was concentrating with his eyes closed, was awakened by the goblin's shrill voice. The black cat-man with a golden mask impatiently took off his ring-covered finger.
A gorgeous piece of jewelry was slapped on the fat goblin's table, and then he said in Common Language with a weird accent:
"I will compensate you for the man with the blue hoof, now shut up because you disturbed my rest!"
"Oh, oh, okay! No problem."
The chairman of the Bilgewater Cartel, a rare fat goblin in Azeroth, picked up the ring on his hand with a smile on his face, and took out a magnifying glass to admire the valuable thing. He waved to Nuri nonchalantly:
"Of course, we goblins are also very generous. We have a mouth on you, so you can say whatever you like."
This episode made Nuri laugh a little. The draenei shrugged, turned around and continued to speak to the generals who were relatively reliable:
"In short, what I mean is that the Ethereal Spirits are not determined to join the war. In fact, now we can be sure that the goal of the Ethereal Spirits is not the Dark Titan Sargeras. Their goal is still to destroy their world.
Dimensius, the Devourer of Worlds."
"The biggest reason why they want to unite with us is because they accidentally saw Lord Tyrion's confrontation with Aggramar among the stars. The Death Lord drove the ancient god N'Zoth to fight the fallen Titan. This caused the ethereal spirits to emerge.
Some kind of 'weird' inspiration."
Nuri increased his voice and said seriously:
"The Ethereals plan to build a super-large mana furnace in the world of Argus, so they will lure the Devourers of Worlds who are wandering among the stars. The moment Sargeras arrives in Azeroth, they will time it.
The World Devourers were released into this star field to complete their revenge on Dimensius by killing people with borrowed knives."
"You mean, the Void Spirits plan to summon a dangerous void creature in the world of Argus that can devour the world?"
The federal representative, Marshal Maxwell, frowned and played with a cigar in his hand. He looked at the generals on the left and right and said:
"This sounds very risky, just for an ally who is not that simple. Maybe we shouldn't do this, and I feel that the ethereals seem to regard us as victims of their revenge against the enemy. What do you think?"
"That's true, but I'm more concerned about what those ethereal spirits can give us."
Draenei priest Ms. Ishana said calmly and solemnly:
"Although the entire power of Azeroth has been mobilized, frankly speaking, I don't have much confidence in the victory of the Doomsday War. We have staked everything. In order to win, maybe we need to come from the stars.
With its power, the Burning Legion destroyed countless worlds, but not all civilizations were destroyed by the demons. As far as we draenei know, in the past ten thousand years, some lucky civilizations have escaped from the clutches of the Legion. They are us
A force that can be united.”
"You have to take risks in anything you do, let alone a war. If the arrival of the virtual spirit can bring us one step closer to victory, then I personally am willing to take the risk."
Priest Ishana's words were agreed by some generals, but Marshal Maxwell's concerns were also correct. The atmosphere in the entire conference hall became quiet. At this time, Commander Nuri coughed lightly and said:
"Everyone, your concerns are correct, but I think we should accept Xu Ling's kindness."
"First of all, under the three major forces of Ethereal, there are several interstellar fleets with very good combat effectiveness. If their fleets can appear during the Doomsday War, it will greatly alleviate our difficulties in Argus and Azeroth.
The pressure of air combat in a world."
"Secondly, I have personally seen the 'eco-dome' technology promised to us by the Void Spirits. It is a very advanced ecological technology. A large-scale ecological dome can ensure that we can survive in an environment like the Antolan Wasteland.
, building an ecological park the size of a city can ensure the survival needs of thousands or even nearly ten thousand people, and that is also the best way to transform the world of Argus."
"Finally, Ethereal has a very complete business network among the stars. As Priest Ishana said, we should now unite all the forces that can be united among the stars. Those exiled civilizations who have also experienced the ravages of the Burning Legion are our most important
Good allies, if there is an opportunity to avenge the Burning Legion and even end the Burning Crusade, I believe the exiles will not be willing to miss it."
Nuri emphasized his tone and said sincerely:
"Relying on our current capabilities, we cannot contact those exiled civilizations, but the Ethereal Merchants can! Everyone, the Doomsday War is a very serious matter. It determines the fate of two worlds and even the entire stars. In this case
Now, even having one more ally is good, as it means our pressure will be reduced."
"Compared with the risks that Voidling's participation in the war will bring to us, I think their joining is beneficial to us."
Nuri's speech was very organized and convincing, but for everyone here, it is still a difficult decision whether to accept the Voidlings to enter the Argus front. The Voidlings are not Draenei, and they have no regard for Ai
Xerath is an almost completely unfamiliar alien civilization. For a civilization that has just stepped out of the planet, it is indeed a very risky thing to have such rash contact with an alien civilization.
"Everyone, I actually think you should think about it in a different way."
Just when no one was talking, the fat goblin Gallywix suddenly spoke. His sharp voice attracted everyone's attention. The big goblin businessman was playing with the ring in his hand while slowly speaking in the goblin's iconic tone.
explain:
"Well, I am a businessman. I don't know much about military and political matters, but regarding the matter of virtual spirits, I think it is more appropriate to think like a businessman."
"Oh? What do you say?"
Old Marshal Windsor became interested and made a 'please' gesture to the goblin merchant. Gallywix laughed a few times and then said:
"Commander Blue Hooves just said that Void Spirit is the best businessman among the stars. To be honest, I also think they are very good businessmen because they are making a perfect "investment"."
"For a good businessman, when investing in something, he should not only consider its current value, but also consider its future value."
The goblin stretched out a fat, gorgeous finger and said:
"We, the civilization of Azeroth, are now commodities that need to be 'invested' in the eyes of the Void Spirits. The Doomsday War is coming. We will face the Burning Legion and the most terrifying Sargeras in the stars. If we fail unfortunately
"
A trace of fear flashed in the goblin's eyes, and he moved his body uncomfortably:
"If we fail, Ethereal will lose nothing more than some soldiers, or a few starships, and an aborted revenge plan. This is not a big loss to their business network all over the stars, but in case we succeed,
Where is it?"
"What if we really defeat Sargeras and stop the Burning Crusade? By then, Azeroth's civilization will be the savior of the stars! Whether we want it or not, Azeroth will become the new savior of the stars.
Holy land! Countless worlds that have escaped the ravages of demons will regard us as their benefactors!”
"At that time, if the virtual spirits come together again, the status of both parties will be different. For shrewd businessmen, the icing on the cake is the icing on the cake. How can there be help in times of need to make people grateful? If I were those virtual spirits, I would also take advantage of it
Take this opportunity to make friends with the Azeroth civilization and become their good friends so that we can share the fruits of future victory together!"
The goblin businessman coughed slightly, and he stood on the chair, his eyes full of cunning wisdom dancing with light, and he said:
"Look, Xu Ling is a good businessman and a real interstellar profiteer!"
"So I believe that they know what they should do. What we should do is accept them, lead them to win this battle, let them reap the benefits, and then we take the opportunity to steal their trade secrets and use them to spread across the stars.
The business network will spread our business and reputation of Azeroth to the entire stars, making our world and civilization truly become the overlord among the stars!"
"Commanders, this is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity! We can't just think about the present, we also have to think about the future! Although we may lose, we must be prepared in case we win. Don't let cunning get used to it then.
It would be ridiculous if the ethereal spirit stole all the glory of saving the stars."
The goblin's voice resounded throughout the conference hall. The vision and wisdom that this little businessman, who was usually looked down upon by others, burst out at this moment was almost deafening.
In the dead world, the high lord who had been observing the meeting was leaning on his chair. Xalatas was standing behind the high lord with his secretary's notebook in hand, always ready to record the high lord's orders.
Tyrion rubbed his chin, his one eye shining with light, and he said:
"I underestimated these goblins. Their persistence and acumen for business and profit are difficult for other races to possess. What that acumen brings is a true overall view and courage. Although they are greedy, vulgar, and noisy, they are
There are also excellent qualities that I have overlooked in them.”
"Gallywix is a good goblin. He is much more suitable than my servant Buddy who only makes money. He should have a place in the Forgotten Kings. I need him to use his keenness for business profits to guide the future.
Azeroth truly steps into the sea of stars."
"Ms. Xal'atas, write it down and report it when the time is right."
