In Azeroth, spellcasters are a very valuable strategic resource in any country, and Tide Sage is no exception.
The entire Tide Sage organization has as many as tens of thousands of people, but most of them are civil servants such as file administrators, and there are also a considerable number of apprentices.
Tide Sage apprentices also have the ability to pilot a single ship, but if they want to lead a fleet, they must be led by senior full-time Tide Sages.
There are only over 300 full-time tidesages in Kul Tiras. During peacetime, most of these tidesages have received large orders and travel around with large merchant fleets.
Excluding the more than 80 people brought by Lord Stormsong, there are only about 20 full-time Tide Sage on standby throughout Kul Tiras.
In order to deal with possible emergencies, these left-behind personnel cannot be easily used. Lord Stormsong summoned all the mobile forces to save face.
Even with the help of the Tide Sage to accelerate the high-speed fleet, it is estimated that it will take more than 20 days to cross the Endless Sea based on the wind direction and strength of the current season. This is already the fastest speed.
It took a day to prepare before setting off from Quel'Thalas, and another three days to sail to Kul Tiras. The time left for Sharlayan and others was only about 25 days, which was very tight.
Dai Lin also knows his priorities. Although he really hopes that his daughter can stay at home and rest for a day, this is not the time for children to have a long relationship.
The fleet arrived at noon that day, and before it got dark, Sarlayan and others were personally escorted off by Dailin and Catherine to the military port dock to prepare to board the ship.
In this expedition to Kalimdor, Lord Stormsong, the leader of the Tidesage, will personally accompany him on behalf of Kul Tiras.
When the group arrived at the dock, 86 Tide Sages had already arrived at the port to prepare for departure.
While Sharlayan was busy coordinating the distribution and arranging these tidesages evenly on each battleship, Daelin was holding Jaina's hand on the dock and earnestly giving instructions.
Judging from Gianna's dumbfounded expression, this stupid dad must have made another speechless statement.
Queen Catherine, who was following him, interrupted Dai Lin's thoughts with a dark face, and forcibly dragged him back a few steps.
Lord Stormsong was also dumbfounded: "Delin, you can rest assured that I am following you."
Dai Lin, who was still unwilling, glared at Sarlayan who was busy at work: "Ajax, I'm sorry to bother you, don't let that brat do anything to my daughter."
"Yes, yes~" Lord Stormsong said with a wry smile: "But if your daughter takes the initiative..."
Dai Lin: "Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"
Catherine had veins popping out on her forehead: "Nothing is impossible! Shut up! Isn't that embarrassing enough?"
"You are the king of Kul Tiras! There are a lot of people watching around you!"
After a ridiculous farewell, Jaina finally got rid of her father's entanglement and boarded Sharlayan's flagship with Lord Stormsong.
After receiving Sarlayan's approval, Donari Huguang, the commander of the Dragon Legion, loudly ordered: "Everyone listens to the order! Pull out the anchor! Raise the sails and set sail!"
As the light and agile high-speed battleship turned its rudder and left the dock, the Tide Sages scattered on each ship also took action.
Lord Stormsong stood tall at the bow of the ship with his arms spread out, and a dozen Tide Sages lined up in a fan shape behind him.
"Pray to Poseidon!"
The speed of a battleship that has just started is not supposed to be very fast. It will gradually increase its speed with the force of the wind.
With the help of the Tide Sage's manipulation of small-scale ocean currents, the fleet that was originally slowly increasing speed suddenly realized stepless speed changes, reaching the highest theoretical speed designed for these warships in just a few seconds.
The theory is just a theory. There are too many uncertain factors that interfere with the speed in the actual navigation environment. Logically speaking, it is impossible to reach the theoretical speed under normal navigation conditions.
The power of the Tide Sage was so miraculous that it forced the fleet that had just set sail to reach its theoretical limit speed.
Dailin and Catherine stood on the pier and looked into the distance until the fleet quickly disappeared at the far end of the sea level. They both sighed in unison and looked away.
The couple looked at each other, and Catherine smiled bitterly and shook her head: "Young women are not allowed to stay in college."
Dai Lin also rubbed his brows helplessly: "There is no other way. Since Jaina is determined not to inherit the throne, we can only place our hope on Tandre."
Looking at the undulating blue sea, Dai Lin's expression suddenly turned ferocious.
"If Drake were still here..."
When mentioning the eldest son who unfortunately died in the battle, Catherine's expression became a little dark.
"It's past. The dead can't come back. We must leave the past and look to the future."
Dai Lin's expression was still uncertain: "That's true, but we must avenge Drake."
Catherine patted Delin's rough big hand and asked, "Are you still struggling with the matter that Sarlayan mentioned before?"
"Um."
Dai Lin said with a deep look: "If the person who raised this matter was not Sarlayan, I would definitely suspect that he was secretly communicating with the orcs."
Paper can't cover up the fire. Instead of waiting for Dai Lin to personally investigate and then explode the matter in the future, Sarlayan is more willing to take the initiative to spread the matter to avoid any suspicion between the two parties.
Since his eldest son Drake died at the hands of the orcs' red dragon knights, Daelin vowed to make the orcs pay the price in blood.
Daelin once left a famous saying, only a dead orc is a good orc.
Sarlayan specifically mentioned the matter of Guyin'er and the Frostwolf clan to Dailin, and told him his overall plan for Guyin'er, the Frostwolf clan, and even the entire new tribe.
As the helmsman who bears the fate of a country, Dai Lin is by no means a pure reckless man.
At the beginning, he did have the idea of incompatible with the orcs, and firmly opposed the plan to secretly manipulate the new tribe. He believed that those beasts would betray the alliance sooner or later.
But Saryan's words moved him.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! Rather than letting those orcs who have been calmed down by the demon blood die worthless, it is better to let them become cannon fodder when facing the invasion of the Burning Legion in the future, so as to greatly improve the situation.
Reduce war losses in various countries in Azeroth, including Kul Tiras.
Daelin does hate orcs, but before this personal hatred, he is first and foremost a king and must consider the people under his rule.
The changes in the Dark Portal are becoming more and more obvious. Ronin, who is about to take over the position of Speaker of the Kirin Tor, recently went to the Watch Keep in the Cursed Land.
According to close calculations by Luo Ning and the accompanying mages, the Burning Legion will make major moves within 2 years at the latest, and the Dark Portal is likely to open again.
At that time, the entire Azeroth will be involved in the war, and Kul Tiras will not be able to escape alone.
On the other hand, Sarlayan also told Daelin in detail about the movements of the Scourge.
In the past few years, Daelin had been leading his army to fight in Northrend, and he had some knowledge of the Scourge.
The necromancers of the Scourge Legion can quickly transform enemy soldiers killed on the battlefield into undead creatures, force them to join their own side, and point their weapons at their comrades who were fighting alongside them before.
If the Scourge is allowed to snowball through war after war, sooner or later they will become a serious problem for all living people in Azeroth.
Sharlayan received information from Kel'Thuzad not long ago.
After experiencing the defeat in the Battle of Azjol-Nerub, Ner'zhul, who was originally a little swollen, finally recognized the reality.
The division of territory in Northrend has been basically stable. Under the constant surveillance of the high elves on high alert, it will be difficult for him to break out in Northrend.
In this case, Ner'zhul changed his target at Kel'Thuzad's suggestion and sent a large number of psychics across the sea to the Eastern Kingdom, lurking in various human kingdoms and secretly developing the Eternal Sect (Cult of the Curse).
What? Why didn't you send someone to infiltrate Quel'Thalas?
The long-lived high elves do not have a strong desire for so-called eternal life, and Ner'zhul's rhetoric has little market in Quel'Thalas.
There are various signs that Azeroth is about to enter a precarious era again. If there is one wrong move, under the threat of powerful foreign enemies, even as powerful as Kul Tiras, the country may be destroyed quickly.
Although Daelin was still emotionally unable to turn around, his rationality as a king agreed with Sarlayan's plan to cultivate orcs as "cannon fodder".
"Hey~"
Looking up at the darkening sky, Dailin sighed and said: "Those ferocious beasts are not trustworthy under any circumstances. I am worried that Sarlayan will accidentally get away with it."
Catherine said funnyly: "Salayan's planning ability and overall control are much better than yours. Trust him, at least he has never failed so far, right?"
Dai Lin felt a little confused on his face and could only turn around and walked towards the palace with a cold groan.
