Sarlayan raised his eyebrows in surprise: "Not a woman? But him?"
Muradin scratched his head in confusion: "It's a man, what? Do you know female Pandaren?"
"Um……"
Sarlayan frowned and thought for a moment: "Whatever, a man is fine too."
'By the way, where did Meng Xia go?'
According to Muradin, the black and white bear-headed man headed south after leaving the Snow Mountains of Dun Morogh, and should have gone to the territory ruled by the Kingdom of Stormwind.
Of course, we do not rule out the possibility that he was captured by the Dark Iron Dwarves near Blackstone Mountain.
However, according to the information provided by the mountain rangers in Karanos Town, the bear-headed man has a strange fighting style, but he is very strong and has rich travel experience, so he should not be easily plotted by the Dark Iron Dwarves.
The Searing Gorge and Burning Steppes around Blackrock Mountain are the core control areas of the Dark Iron Dwarves.
The Dark Iron dwarves living in Blackrock Abyss had a bad relationship with the Blackrock Orcs who occupied the upper floors of Blackrock Tower. Instigated by the bosses behind them, the two sides fought in the tower.
Coupled with the standing border troops deployed to the Fortress of Torment in the Desolate Land to defend against the Bronzebeard Dwarves, the Dark Iron Dwarves should not be able to spare much energy to help those who are on the way. There is a high probability that the Pandaren will be able to reach Stormwind smoothly.
territory of the kingdom.
"Three months ago?"
Calculating the distance traveled, even if you had to wander around and enjoy the scenery along the way, the panda should have been to Stormwind City.
Sharlayan set his next stop at the capital of the Kingdom of Stormwind. When he arrived in Stormwind City, he could also learn about the latest battle situation on the front line through the embassy in Quel'Thalas.
Now the Dark Iron dwarves are fighting fiercely with the Bronzebeard dwarves in the wasteland. Once the storm is over, Brian will arrange for the earth spirits to disguise themselves and blend into the dwarves' defensive army, all the way back to Ironforge.
Magni will then ask these earth elves disguised as dwarves to go to the port in the wetlands, hand over to the Kul Tiras fleet, and use an icebreaker to secretly send them to Northrend.
The construction of New Shandara City has begun to take shape. The sudden war has affected the city's construction progress to some extent. Many engineering puppets have been temporarily mobilized to the front line to strengthen the city wall.
These earth spirits will be temporarily placed in the inner city of New Shandarara, and Sarlayan has other plans for them.
Even the troggs, the earth spirit's degraded flesh and blood species, are naturally capable of digging holes. There is no reason why the earth spirit's abilities should be weaker than those ugly monsters.
It just so happened that Sarlayan's long-term development plan for Northrend originally planned to open a mountain tunnel from Crystalsong Forest to Wintergrasp.
When the time comes, we can let these earth spirits who cannot show up openly do the work first, and we can also find something for them to do.
There is a Titan treasure house in the north of Wintergrasp Lake. It is just right for the earth spirit, who is a Titan creation, to knock on the door. Maybe he can successfully take over this permanently frozen lake that is rich in natural resources without fighting.
The Dark Iron Dwarves were very angry at the expansion of the Bronzebeard Dwarves in the Badlands, and Emperor Dagran Thaurissan planned to mobilize as many mobile troops as possible to the Fortress of Torment.
On the other hand, Magni, who secretly learned about the progress of Brian's exploration, could not give up Uldaman.
In order to prevent the secret from being exposed and trigger an expedition by Loken's Iron Army, he even planned to capture the Fortress of Pain and completely drive the Dark Iron Dwarves out of the barren land.
Previously, the two tribes could only have a small fight at the border of the deserted land, but now they are fighting with real swords and guns.
If the Blackrock Orcs in Blackrock Tower hadn't pressed too hard, Daglan Thaurissan almost wanted to come to the front line to meet with Muradin in person.
It is precisely because of the lack of high-end combat power and the crisis in the rear base camp that involves a lot of troops that the Black Iron Dwarves' military operations in the deserted land have been retreating steadily, and they have withdrawn to the Fortress of Pain and cannot hold on.
The Bronzebeard Dwarf army led by Muradin was not in a hurry to attack the city.
Facing a fortified city, forcibly attacking the city is undoubtedly the next best option. The attacking side will suffer far more losses than the defending side.
At Saryan's suggestion, Muradin chose to encircle the point and provide reinforcements.
The Fortress of Pain was completely surrounded, and the Dark Iron Dwarves' supplies could not be transported to the fortress at all. They could only rely on the resources reserved in the castle to survive.
The deserted land is inherently poor in resources and lacks water sources.
According to Muradin's guess, after cutting off the supply line, the food and fresh water in the Fortress of Torment can only last for half a month at most. By then, the Bronzebeard Dwarves will be able to capture this strong fortress without a single blow.
The three of Sarlayan did not stay in the deserted land any longer. After helping Muradin with his plans, the three of them continued their journey.
Stellagosa transformed into her dragon form and flew Sharlayan and Valeela from high altitude over the Searing Gorge and the Burning Plains, deliberately avoiding the patrolling black dragons under Nefarian's command.
Through the clouds below, you can still vaguely see the black dragons flying around the Black Rock Tower. Valeera asked thoughtfully: "Speaking of which... how are Onyxia and Abyssian preparing their counterattack plan?"
Already? When are they going to take action?"
Stellagosa shook her head: "It's still early. Dragon Queen Sinestra is relying on her past connections and influence to call for the return of the establishment black dragons who have retreated to the mountains and forests to live in seclusion."
"The last time we went to Wyrmrest Temple to say hello, there were only a few black dragons from the establishment faction that returned, and we still have to wait."
According to the information provided by Sinestra, the black dragons who chose to follow Deathwing and betray the tribe accounted for about half of the entire tribe.
The other half of the black dragons were brutally suppressed by Deathwing. They did not have the strength to confront Deathwing head-on, so they could only hide in the mountains and forests and did not dare to show their faces.
In the next 10,000 years, the black dragon who betrayed the dragon clan was like a rat crossing the street and was pressed with a blaster by the four-color dragon. Anyone who dared to show up would be accurately sniped.
Nowadays, the numbers of the two black dragon factions have strangely returned to balance. Most of the traitors are concentrated in Blackstone Tower, under the direct control of the Black Dragon Crown Prince Nefario on his behalf.
The establishment black dragons are scattered in every corner of Azeroth, and it is not that easy to find them again.
Just like what Sharlayan originally proposed, the best way is for Ebyssian to directly attack Nefarian's lair and announce the return of the establishment to the reclusive black dragons in this tough way.
But Sinestra was worried that young Abyssian was no match for Nefarian's rebellious son, and she disagreed with Abyssian's adventurous plan.
It's not that Sharlayan can't understand Sinestra's mood.
Nefarian's unfilial and rebellious son could no longer be counted on. It was rare to find such a decent and filial son as Abyssian. Sinestra, who had gone through many vicissitudes of life, would naturally treat him as a treasure.
Onyxia couldn't laugh or cry about this. She repeatedly tried to persuade her mother not to be so doting on Abyssian, but with little success.
Abisian, who grew up independently since childhood, also feels very uncomfortable with his mother's omnipresent doting. However, his honest character does not allow him to disobey Sinestra's kindness in person, so he can only continue to waste his time like this.
But wasting time like this is not the answer. We must completely eliminate the forces left by Deathwing before he returns.
With only a polished commander left, Sarlayan didn't believe that the crazy black dragon could do anything cool.
Among the five-color dragons, the crises of the red dragon and the green dragon have been resolved one after another, and the blue dragon clan, which has gone through many hardships, is back on track.
The only ones that still have problems today are the bronze dragon and the black dragon.
Not to mention the black dragon, Sarlayan is quite worried about the crisis of the bronze dragon.
Through Sarlayan's insidious reminder, senior bronze dragon officials such as Anaclos and Solidomi had already known the origin of the Eternal Dragon in advance.
But until today, the Bronze Dragon still has not been able to find the whereabouts of Nozdormu despite the interference of the Eternal Dragon.
Sarlayan didn't know much about the power of time controlled by the Bronze Dragon, and he didn't dare to let an outsider command an expert. All he could do was provide information, and the next specific performance would be up to them.
But on the black dragon's side, Sharlayan might actually be able to help.
As he flew over the Burning Plains, Sarlayan looked thoughtfully at the charred land below.
"The Dark Iron Dwarves and Ragnaros...maybe we can further instigate them to counterattack Blackstone Tower?"
Strictly speaking, Ragnaros, the King of Fire Elementals, and the scions of Deathwing are allies in the camp of the Old Gods.
But even if they are both in the camp of the Ancient Gods, they cannot be of the same mind.
Deathwing is a general of the N'Zoth sect. Sarlayan is not yet sure who Ragnaros will lead, but at least it is certain that the relationship between the king of the fire element and the black dragon of the N'zoth sect is very poor.
Deathwing himself was not in the material world, and Ragnaros in Blackstone Mountain was just a clone. The proxy war between the two sides was a 50-50 split.
But if an external force quietly intervenes at this time... the situation may be different.
