The reason why the Kul Tiras expedition planned to search for Pandaria was because they learned about this mysterious continent hidden in the mist from a panda who visited Boralus.
Kul Tiras thought that they had already mapped all the continents and islands of Azeroth. If the Pandaria continent mentioned by the pandaren really existed, Kul Tiras had to find it and correct it again.
World maps have been published and sold to various countries.
Pandaria indeed exists, and even if there was no barrage to inform him, Thalayan would have read about it from Quel'Thalas's collection of books.
But since the Great Schism thousands of years ago, no one knows where Pandaria is.
The high elves also confirmed that Pandaria did not sink into the sea due to the Great Schism through the stories of the pandaren who traveled to the Eastern Kingdom.
However, the pandaren who travel to Quel'Thalas from time to time have no idea where Pandaria is.
They are not local residents of Pandaria, but come from a place called the Wandering Isle, and they lost contact with their fellow pandaren in Pandaria many years ago.
According to the information provided by some of the pandaren who arrived earlier, it is known that Pandaria was shrouded in fog before the Great Schism began.
The years have changed and the world has changed.
Many of the pandaren who have left the Wandering Island to travel in recent years only know the name Pandaria. Over the long passage of time, they have no longer known the scenery of their homeland.
This was the case for the pandaren who provided intelligence to Kul Tiras. She was sitting in front of Sharlayan and Valeela, and she happened to be staying in the same inn as them.
The female pandaren's name was Meng Xia. She didn't understand any of the questions Sharlayan asked, and even asked him for knowledge about Pandaria.
Meng Xia was born and raised on the Wandering Island since she was a child. Pandaria has long become a legend in the eyes of most of the contemporary residents of the Wandering Island.
Meng Xia only knew that it existed, but had no specific information about Pandaria.
Sarlayan was quite speechless about this: "Based on this little piece of information whose authenticity is unknown, Kul Tiras is planning to go out to sea to search for it?"
Valeera shrugged: "That's why they are Kul Tiras, a maritime power that spans the four seas and does not allow any islands or continents in the sea that they do not understand."
‘Speak of it.’
Sarlayan touched his chin thoughtfully and asked the barrage: "You seem to have said that Zandalar had some connections and festivals with Pandaria in ancient times, right?"
[Yes, Zandalari once formed an alliance with the mogu, the ruler of Pandaria.]
[But as the declining Mogu were overthrown by their former slaves, the Pandaren, the relationship between Pandaria and Zandalari naturally turned from allies to enemies.]
Sharlayan: "In other words, Zandalar, which has always coveted Pandaria, cannot find the specific location of that continent?"
[It can be understood that before the fog dissipates, I am afraid that only the giant turtle Shen Zhenzi, who has traveled through the fog many times, knows how to return to Pandaria. 】
[Just to mention it casually, Shen Zhenzi is the real body of the Wandering Island mentioned by the panda man Meng Xia in front of you. 】
[The so-called Wandering Island is actually built on the back of a giant sea turtle, which is always moving on the sea. 】
As the talkative Meng Xia and Valeera chatted, Sarlayan continued to ask in confusion: "Since Shenzhenzi remembers the way to return to Pandaria, why do the people on the Wandering Island not know anything about Pandaria?"
[It's very simple, because even contemporary pandaren don't know this information. Since Liu Lang's death, Shenzhenzi has never returned to Pandaria. 】
[It has been more than 800 years since Liu Lang died. Pandaren are not immortals, so this information has been gradually lost as it has been passed down from generation to generation. 】
According to the barrage, Pandaria has many secrets buried in it and is a very suitable place for adventure travel.
If it weren't for the fact that he still had things to do, Sarlayan almost wanted to contact the Wandering Island through Meng Xia and entrusted Shenzhenzi to take him into Pandaria.
'Forget it, let's find dad first and find a way to wake mom up.'
…
Most of the Pandaren who travel from Wandering Island aspire to travel around the world, and Meng Xia is no exception.
Sarlayan initially found Mengxia not because of Pandaria, but because she had traveled to the continent of Kalimdor, and her adventure experience should help Sarlayan avoid many detours.
"Kalimdor..."
Meng Xia's furry panda face showed a very pure happy smile.
"That continent is very interesting. It is not just pure wilderness as the people of Kul Tiran say."
"Indeed, Kalimdor has many primitive and savage races, such as centaurs, naga, harpies and wild boars, etc."
"But at the same time, there are also civilized races such as furbolgs, tauren and night elves living there, and they all welcomed my visit."
Meng Xia traveled to many places during her travels in Kalimdor. She climbed the towering Mount Hyjal and climbed to the night elves' capital built on the crown of Nordrassil, the world tree.
She had been to the desolate land in the middle of Kalimdor and witnessed with her own eyes the brutal struggle between the tauren and centaurs.
She also went to the Tanaris Desert in the southern part of the continent, where she was driven to pieces by the Sand Fury Trolls.
Although Meng Xia did not visit every corner of Kalimdor due to limited time, she did have an intuitive experience of Kalimdor's customs and provided a lot of useful information to Sharlayan and Valeera.
Information.
In return, Sarlayan told Meng Xia in detail about his knowledge of Drustvar, and the legend of the ancient race Drust aroused her interest as expected.
Early the next morning, Meng Xia, who was familiar with her, waved goodbye to the two of them warmly, and couldn't wait to leave Boralus and embark on her journey again.
During the last day's rest, Sarlayan put everything aside and patiently accompanied Valeela, who was in high spirits, on a tour of Boralus.
But this is not good news for barrages.
This leisure time was judged by the system as cuttable content. When the barrage was re-viewed, the time had already arrived the next morning.
【???】
[Come again?! What happened to Xiao Sa and Valeela yesterday! 】
[Protest! We want to see the full version, no harmony, no harmony, no harmony! Say important things three times!]
At this time, Sarlayan had already boarded the expedition ship named Wavebreaker, standing near the side of the deck and rolling his eyes angrily.
"At least give me some space for my private life. Besides, nothing worth talking about happened yesterday. I was just shopping as a bag boy."
[We don’t believe it! You established a written document!]
Sarlayan shook his head helplessly: "Forget it, let me show you what I gained yesterday."
Sarlayan opened the space package, and what appeared in front of the barrage were two neat rows of shopping bags.
【Ah... Seeing this scene, I suddenly felt relieved.】
[Oops, it turns out that women in all the world are the same, buy, buy, buy.]
[The Chinese men in front of you have any objections? Letting you pay for the bag is to give you face, we women...]
[System prompt: The username ‘Exquisite Little Fairy’ has been permanently banned. Please do not set the pace in this live broadcast room. Once discovered, we will not tolerate it. 】
[Haha! Okay! I have seen these green tea eg...]
[System prompt: Username ‘****’ has been permanently banned. 】
[Then...the system has told you not to follow the rhythm, why do you still not believe in evil?]
[Ignore these Internet keyboard warriors and watch the live broadcast.]
While talking and laughing, the picture seen on the barrage changed again.
One moment, the bustling and noisy Port of Boralus turned into a sky filled with yellow sand the next second.
[...Cut again, is this going directly to Tanaris? 】
Sarlayan: "Yes, this is the Tanaris Desert."
When Sarlayan walked out of the cabin, the barrage exploded on the spot.
【Holy shit, who are you, handsome guy?】
[This has been a few months, why did Louis Koo suddenly become a happy person? 】
Sarlayan, who appeared in front of the barrage again, was somewhat different from the last time he met. Because he had been exposed to wind and rain at sea for more than two months, his skin color had obviously darkened a lot.
【...Dark Elf?】
【Pfft~ This joke is so cold.】
[Will Valeela also turn black? 】
[That’s not true, Valeela has always been wearing a hood.]
[Salayan should often go to the deck to bask in the sun before he becomes dark. Girls still attach great importance to this aspect.]
Saying goodbye to the captain and sailors of the Breaker, who had become familiar with each other, Sarlayan, who was completely naked, and Valeera, who was covered in black cloth and leather armor, officially set foot on the land of Tanaris.
Opening her hood slightly, Valeera squinted her eyes and looked into the distance. All she could see was yellow sand.
"I hate this lack of moisture... Find Julian as soon as possible. I don't want to get tanned like you."
Sarlayan rolled his eyes and also put on a white hood to block the harsh sunlight that was not blocked by clouds.
"Then let's set off. First find a place to stay and discuss the route."
