After the Naga Rebellion was quelled, the waterway between Kalimdor and Northrend became smooth again.
When Sarlayan got up the next day and looked out the window, a large number of ships stranded at Estorante Pier were leaving the port in an orderly manner under the guidance of the port authority.
According to Jarod, Fandral Staghelm's pioneering work in the Sholazar Basin came to a standstill due to lack of local supplies.
As one of the large-scale life greenhouses of Freya, the Guardian of Life, the biodiversity of the Sholazar Basin is no joke. There are a large number of novel creatures that have never been seen outside the basin inhabiting the basin.
Even for druids who are good at communicating with animals and plants, it is not easy to figure out the habits of these creatures.
During the process of pioneering, the pioneer team led by Fandral Staghelm encountered many attacks from native creatures, and supplies such as medicine and food were consumed very quickly.
Fandral Staghelm was a stubborn man who refused to admit defeat. It is said that he swore an oath in Sholazar Basin that he would never leave his comrades and return to the homeland before completing this pioneering journey, and would always accompany them on their journey.
to the end.
It has to be said that although Fandral Staghelm has many character flaws, he is indeed much better than Tyrande in practical terms. At least he really dares to take on things when he encounters them, unlike Tyrande who only talks on paper.
After receiving Fandral's impassioned promise, the morale of the pioneer team, which was short of supplies, was finally stabilized.
Now that Fandral has made a guarantee, as his mentor, Malfurion will naturally provide corresponding support.
Although the Sholazar Basin is still a wild land, the diverse ecology and resources of this basin are of high value to druids and night elves.
Not to mention other things, the Sholazar Basin is definitely the area with the warmest climate and the most suitable for living and planting in Northrend.
As soon as the port of Estorante was lifted, the supply fleet assigned by Malfurion was the first batch to leave the port and head towards the Borean Tundra.
Speaking of Northrend, Thalayan, who dived into the sea and turned into a killer whale, felt a little uneasy.
With the end of the decisive battle between Kul Tiras and the Dragonflayer Vrykul in Howling Fjord, the long-turbulent continent of Northrend seems to have finally returned to calm. Only the Drakkari trolls are still in Grizzly Hills and Zul'Drak.
There is some friction with the Grizzly Maw Furbolg in the transfer area.
Ever since he learned that the Forge of Origin had somehow restarted, Loken, who had been eager to expand his territory before, had been silent for a long time.
This coward is probably worried that the restart of the Forge of Origin is the work of the Great Guardian Raiden, and is afraid that Raiden will return to Ulduar to attack him.
Loken's concerns are not groundless.
In order to investigate the reason for the restart of the Forge of Origin, Loken assigned multiple Iron Vrykul scouts to infiltrate Uldum.
Although these scouts were unable to obtain conclusive evidence due to the tight defense of the local Tol'vir people, they did obtain important information for Loken.
There are residual traces of the Great Guardian's power near the Forge of Origin.
Loken didn't know that Raiden had passed on part of his power to Sharlayan. He really thought that Raiden, who had been missing for many years, was back. He had been trembling with fear in Ulduar for the past two years, and he didn't dare to do anything again.
The reason why the Great Guardian is called the Great Guardian is not only because he has the strongest management and coordination ability, but also because Raiden has a strong fighting power that only the chief administrator Odin can barely match.
Loken is self-aware, and even with Yogg-Saron's support, he is no match for the angry Raiden.
Loken is silent, and the Azjol Nerub people underground are also silently licking their wounds. At first glance, Northrend seems to have truly restored peace.
However, this was just an appearance. The Lich King, who was hiding in Icecrown Glacier to accumulate strength, adopted Kel'Thuzad's suggestion and arranged for a large number of core members of the Cursed Cult to go to the Eastern Kingdom and infiltrate into various regions of the Kingdom of Lordaeron.
Today's Cursed Sect is still in the latent development stage. Once they launch their full force... natural disasters will sweep across the entire northern part of the Eastern Continent.
Since history has already undergone huge changes, Sharlayan cannot say when the Lich King will attack.
Before leaving the coastline of Estorant and heading to Nazjatar, Sarlayan first went to the underwater base where the water element was based, and met with the original sea giant Hercules.
As expected, after some consideration, Hercules agreed to Sarlayan's plan.
Recently, he will take his sea giants deep into various sea giant settlements on the seabed, trying to summon those compatriots affected by the curse of flesh and blood as Titan creations.
With Neptulon as a beacon, the high-level water elements of the Throat of the Abyss are still being continuously summoned to the material world, and they are still far from reaching their limit.
Ragnaros's clone was summoned to Azeroth more than 200 years ago. Neptulon does not need more than 200 years of accumulation. With him as the summoning core, he can be fully mobilized and can be accumulated in a few years.
An army of water elements.
The water elements staying in the underwater base are not confident enough and do not plan to expand externally for the time being.
There was nothing to do at the moment anyway, so Neptulon readily approved Hercules' request to leave the team.
If a large number of sea giants can be brought back, the ultimate beneficiary will be the water element, which is destined to occupy an important position in the sea in the future.
After explaining all the miscellaneous things, Sarlayan finally set off officially.
Using the map guidance given by Inas, head towards Nazjatar at full speed.
Along the way, Sarlayan met many Nagas who were out hunting.
These calm-eyed Nagas are completely different from the Nagas of the Ancient God under N'Zoth. They did not immediately attack Sharlayan in the form of a killer whale.
...Of course, it may be that they think they can't defeat the ferocious killer whales.
After swimming until he reached the outskirts of the deep-sea city of Nazjatar, Sarlayan was stopped by the elite Naga guards guarding the city.
"Stop! Ahead is the imperial capital of Nazjatar. Unauthorized marine life is prohibited from entering."
Sarlayan was a little confused about Naga trying to communicate with the killer whale.
'Could these guys be able to communicate with marine life, including killer whales?'
Now is not the time to consider such biological issues. Sarlayan transformed and returned from the form of a killer whale to the appearance of a high elf.
"What?!"
The guards guarding the city's boundaries obviously didn't expect this to happen.
However, these well-trained elites quickly reacted, and they unanimously raised the tridents in their hands towards Sarlayan, and asked with caution: "Who are you? What is the purpose of coming to Nazjatar?"
Sarlayan could not speak underwater, so he could only shrug helplessly.
Under the wary gaze of the guards, Sarlayan took out the voice shell given by Azshara from the space package.
Tanshou handed the shell that had long lost its magic power to the leading city defense guard sergeant, and Sarlayan motioned with his eyes to take the shell and look at it.
"What's this?"
The muscular male Naga captain picked up the shell and looked through it in confusion.
When he saw a certain pattern on the back of the shell, his doubtful eyes suddenly froze.
"this……"
The captain's attitude immediately made a 180-degree turn. He immediately ordered his subordinates to put down their weapons and respectfully beat their chests with one hand to salute Sarlayan.
"I don't know that you are a distinguished guest of Her Majesty the Queen. Please forgive me."
The city defense captain immediately stepped aside and motioned for Sarlayan to follow him inside.
"Ms. Vaschi has already greeted us in advance. Please follow us into the city."
…
Vashj, who was in charge of the reception, had obviously expected that Sarlayan could not speak underwater.
Under the command of the city defense captain, one of the female Naga casters suddenly activated the teleportation spell and left. After a few seconds, she returned to the same place and handed a pearl with a lustrous luster to Sharlayan.
"This is a water-proof magic tool specially prepared by Ms. Vashchi. With its help, you can breathe and speak freely underwater."
'oh?'
Sarlayan took the pearl with interest.
After dispersing the underwater breathing spell attached to the pendant, Sarlayan tried to open his mouth and inhale gently.
As the captain said, under the influence of the spell solidified in the pearl, the sea water will no longer have any impact on his breathing and speech.
"Hey? It's quite magical."
Sarlayan politely thanked the other party and then asked: "Where should I go now? Go directly to the Eternal Palace? Or stay overnight at a hotel in the city and wait for the queen's call?"
After all, the city defense captain was just a rough man and did not know the detailed arrangements of Vashqi. He scratched his head and said with a smile: "Please wait a moment, distinguished guest. I have sent someone to inform Ms. Vashqi. I believe she will be soon..."
"You came very quickly, Sharlayan Deep Shadow."
A familiar voice sounded from a street corner not far away, and a beautiful snake swayed its graceful body and quickly approached Sarlayan.
[Say Cao Cao, Cao Cao will be here.]
[I’m finally going to see the light of light! I’m looking forward to seeing how good Azshara’s appearance is in the real world! 】
[1. The modeling in the game is too stretched, and it doesn’t show Azshara’s proper style at all. 】
'Charming...?'
Sarlayan said silently in his heart: 'I also want to see how charming the Queen of the Night is who can fascinate the night elves.'
