In the Emerald Forest, the farthest rear area from Panlong's Backbone, the defeat on the frontline battlefield seems not to have affected this area yet, but to some well-informed people, the news of the unprecedented Panlong's Back retreat is no longer a secret.
.
In the Elders' Villa of Tianchan Monastery, Ms. Jaina, who was rarely seen wearing the formal dress of the Queen of Lordaeron, stepped into the elders' meeting hall under the protection of Pandaren guards. Just as the Queen entered the room,
Immediately, she heard a familiar voice.
"Believe me, wise elders, the Federation officials are always paying attention to the war situation in Pandaria. We are willing to become allies of the Pandaren. Our goodwill is very sincere. As long as you need it, my friends, the Federation
The Legion will be on the battlefields of Pandaria immediately to help our pandaren friends fend off those damn mantids!"
Senator Maxwell's powerful voice echoed in the room:
"Of course I know what you are worried about. The demons on this land are indeed a problem, but the Federation's war technology is at least 30 years ahead of the entire Azeroth! Our soldiers no longer need to fight face-to-face with those terrifying monsters in close combat.
Yes, we have excellent weapons that can be fired at long distances and can quickly clear the battlefield. As long as we get your permission, the Federation is willing to share this powerful new weapon with our Pandaren friends!"
"But with all due respect, Senator Maxwell."
Just as the congressman was eloquently lobbying the representatives of the Golden Lotus Sect and the Lorewalker Organization in front of him, a calm female voice sounded behind him. Queen Jaina, who was dressed very dignifiedly, said to several elders of the Pandaren polity.
arrive:
"I admit that the Federation's military technology is indeed amazing, but the Federation's soldiers lack experience in fighting Zerg, and no matter how good the weapons are, they still need people to control them. This is fatal to our Pandaren friends who are in urgent need of real help.
Weakness!"
The queen was sitting on a chair, and she was talking:
"But the Empire is different. My Pandaren friends, oh, especially Mr. Zhou Zhuo, you should have read the "General History of the Empire" I brought. You should also know that just a few years ago, in Cali
In the southern border of Mudor, in the Great Desert of Silithus, the outstanding soldiers of our empire defeated the Qiraji empire controlled by the ancient gods..."
"Look, isn't the situation you are facing now exactly the same as what we were back then? The Mantid has been confirmed to be a bug-human civilization, and the most important thing is that there are traces of the ancient gods behind them. In this case, the Empire is
The best choice for Pandaren friends! Moreover, the Dread Waste, the base camp of the Mantid, is closer to the continent of Kalimdor. Our invincible fleet only needs 2 days of sailing to land behind the Dread Waste and open up a new world for Pandaren and Mantis.
The second front of the demon war!"
As soon as Gianna finished speaking, Senator Maxwell said in a deep voice:
"What the Armada can do, our Black Ark Fleet can also do! And unlike the Empire, we don't covet anything from our Pandaren friends. What we need is also very simple, just some trivial trade access.
Right...that's all, I think this has proven the federation's sincerity."
"That's it?"
Queen Jaina chuckled:
"Who doesn't know how the merchants of the Federation are? Once the Pandaren open trade with you, I'm afraid that within 10 years, all the merchants in Pandaria will be unemployed, and this place will also become a place where the Federation plunders raw materials and dumps goods.
A market, I think about this, the dozen or so small kingdoms in the South China Sea that were ruthlessly destroyed by commercial violence may have something to say."
Seeing that the conversation between Queen Jaina and Councilor Maxwell was getting more and more heated, several panda elders who looked at each other helplessly knocked on the table, ending the quarrel between the two. In the end, Yu, who had the best relationship with the outsiders,
Scholar Zhou Zhuo explains:
"The Pandaren are very grateful to the Federation and the Empire for their concern for Pandaria. We are also very grateful for your helping hand, but the problem is that we do not need your help for the time being..."
"kindness?"
"Well?"
Faced with this unexpected answer, Queen Jaina and Councilor Maxwell widened their eyes at the same time. According to the news they received, the Pandaren's war in the Valley of the Four Winds, Kun-Lai Summit and the Mantis Plateau was already very critical.
But now seeing that the panda people are not panicking, it seems that they... really still have a hidden card? Or that they have found... reinforcements in advance?
"With all due respect, friends..."
Councilor Maxwell wanted to say something else, but the door to the conference room was pushed open again. This time, a slender man wearing black armor walked into the conference room... an "old acquaintance."
"Pandaria does not need help from the Empire or the Federation!"
Death Lord Yrel put her hands on her hips. She looked at the queen and councilors in front of her like a master. She waggled her tail and said:
"We also don't want the hands of the Federation and the Empire to reach into the land of Pandaria. This land does not yet belong to you, and it will never belong to you! It has only one destined master... and that is the Pandaren civilization!"
After Congressman Maxwell saw the death lord appear, he expressed a strange calmness. Obviously, although Mr. Congressman was a little unwilling to face this result, it was not unacceptable.
Although the Federation has separated from the Dark Blade's political system and has become an independent civilization in the world of Azeroth, the relationship between it and the Dark Blade is still very ambiguous. The Supreme Council is not willing to part ways with the Dark Blade, at least in the Dark Blade.
Until the Blade's power is completely separated from Azeroth, the Federation will continue to exist as the "friend" of the Dark Blade.
The most important thing is that since the high lord's subordinates have appeared here, it means that the Pandaria civilization may continue to advance on a similar path to the Federation. According to the long-standing business policy of the high lord, even if the federation does not force it, maybe in the next few years
Within this year, this market will still be open to the federation.
But the Empire... is different.
"Dark Blade!"
The moment she saw Yrel, Jaina subconsciously grabbed her cane, and clouds of icy mist burst out on her fingers. However, Yrel did not show any signs of the Archmage Queen's unkindness.
It was too intense a response. On the contrary, the hoof girl looked at Jaina with a calm look. After a few seconds, she said somewhat boredly:
"Imperial people, I advise you to pay more attention to your own internal affairs. If I were you, I wouldn't have time to make trouble until the storm caused by Varian is over. I'll just say it straight.
The current situation in the empire is very delicate. Do you still remember the last war in Northern Xinjiang? Miss Jaina, if you make another wrong step..."
Yrel's eyes narrowed, and a glimmer of malice flashed through them:
"Then, Kalimdor will soon become the second Whispering Port...and all this will happen without another Lothar sacrificing himself to save you."
"Go, take your escaped generals and soldiers, and go back and forth wherever you come from!"
Lord Death pointed to the door of the conference room unceremoniously:
"The Dark Blade Legion is now fully responsible for the war in Pandaria. Before the end of this war..."
"Nothing happens without you!"
——————————————————————————
"Xenu! You should always pay attention to the situation in the north of Pandaria, but now the unexpected breaking of the seal of the Sha has disrupted everything, and the Sha of Wrath under your care has also escaped! This should not happen at all."
After Panlongji's large troops withdrew from the danger zone, in the Baihu Temple closest to the battlefield, Yulong, one of the supreme gods, asked loudly:
"Also, Shado Zen Monastery was suddenly closed by Zhu Talan? What happened?"
Facing Qinglong's questioning, the mighty Heavenly Lord of the North, Baihu Xuenu, said in a weak voice:
"This is my negligence...Xuanniu Temple was attacked by the mantid demons of the Mantis Plateau yesterday. Niuzao said that he could handle it all, so I didn't intervene. But no one expected that the mantid demons who always hate demons
The Mantid actually opened the seal of the Sha of Fear so decisively during this invasion... and when I was fighting the Sha of Wrath, the Sha of Hatred who escaped from the Shadow Trace Monastery also joined in."
"I'm sorry. Although I severely damaged the Sha of Wrath, I couldn't stop them both. As for the Shado Temple..."
Xuen replied somewhat uncertainly:
"Zhu Taran should be urgently repairing the demon-sealing array in the monastery. They paid a terrible price in the death battle last night to re-seal the evil spirit of Kuang. This is probably a blessing in misfortune. In addition, gather together
Mind, Yulong, you have been affected by the evil of anger..."
Seeing the scars on White Tiger's body that have not yet healed, Qinglong could probably guess how terrible the battle at Kun-Lai Mountain last night was. A quarter of the White Tiger Temple built at the foot of Kun-Lai Mountain had collapsed. It was precisely because of White Tiger's obstruction that the seal was broken.
Only then did the evil of anger escape from infecting the entire Kun-Lai Summit.
Baihu's reminder made Qinglong immediately realize that his nameless anger seemed a bit strange, and he was horrified:
"When can evil demons affect Tianzun? Are their abilities powerful again?"
"I don't know, Yulong, but this is the most terrifying problem..."
Xuen's voice became deeper:
"There is very, very bad news... Niuzao is missing. According to the descriptions of the monks at Xuanniu Temple, it fought until dawn with the evil spirit that broke out of the seal, but was completely destroyed in Xuanniu Temple.
After that, it also disappeared along with the Sha of Fear...It is very likely..."
"You mean, Niuzao is... contaminated?"
Yulong's voice became trembling at this moment. He could not imagine what kind of terrible disaster a deity corrupted by evil spirits would bring to Pandaria. But now Niuzao's unexpected disappearance seemed to prove this terrible disaster.
conjecture.
"Then where did they go?"
Chi-Ji, who had been silent, looked strangely weak like Yulong. Faced with its question, White Tiger hesitated for a moment, and then looked at the mountains where Kun-Lai Mountain and the Emerald Forest meet with his eyes filled with white lightning.
, it said softly:
"I don't know, but I can feel that... they may have gone to the Mist Plank Road... Yongchun Terrace, the place where Shaohao sacrificed himself. I don't know why the evil spirit of fear drove Niuzao there, but...
There is not much time left for us to hesitate.”
"Wow"
The door to the world of death suddenly opened at this moment, and the great lord holding two bottles in his hand stepped into the main hall of the White Tiger Temple. Facing the gazes of the three deities, the great lord waved the two bottles in his hand, and the one who was killed by death
In the bottle tightly wrapped by the power, black and green mist shines:
"Anger, and hatred... are all here, Bai Hu, I solved your problem, so... where is my reward?"
"for you!"
The white tiger felt that the evil power of Kun-Lai Mountain had become extremely weak. It knew that the weird elf in front of it had indeed done what he promised, and a contract was a contract, so the Mighty Heavenly Lord did not waste any time, and raised its sharp claws.
The knife fell, and a small piece of soul fell into the hands of the great lord in the form of a perfect sapphire.
Tyrion is very satisfied with this. The power of the Four Heavenly Lords is one step stronger than other wilderness demigods, which means that the death demigods cultivated by their souls will be more powerful. The big lord put away the gem and left and right
After looking at it, he frowned:
"Where is the black bull? Doesn't it intend to pay me the reward I deserve?"
"No, Tyrion."
Yulong whispered:
"Niuzao was infected by the Evil of Fear, and it was driven into the Yongchun Terrace. It is currently the only area in Pandaria that is still shrouded in fog. It is difficult for even us to enter..."
"Is that so?"
The great lord rubbed his chin and said softly:
"It doesn't matter. Since it's not hiding from debts, and since it's inconvenient for it to come now, I'll go find it and take a look at the Evil of Fear... Also, the Evil of Madness is in the Shadow Trace Monastery. That place is now
It's a bit weird... My subordinates told me that that place is shrouded in a weird barrier, I know you will open it for me, right?"
"We will. We are also very worried about the current situation of Zhu Talan and his Shado-Pan."
Chi-Ji flapped his wings and said:
"But the main problem now is not here. Because the Mantid and Sha appeared at the same time, the entire Dragon Spine fell. We must send the Pandaren who lost their homeland to a safe place before the Mantid further occupied the land.
place..."
"We must first retrieve Niuzao, and then... open the Valley of Legends."
