The fact that the portal can be completed so quickly is all thanks to the good foundation of Alterac's magic core.
Alterac's magical core takes advantage of its proximity to Dalaran, and is a branch directly separated from Dalaran's magic network.
In the eyes of mages, the world can be simplified into a coordinate network composed of horizontal and vertical lines. Dalaran is one of the most dazzling points of light in this coordinate network. Dalaran has a huge magical gravity. As long as you have Dalaran,
It is not difficult to transport Dalaran's magic key from all over the world.
The Guardian of the Vast Sea is connected to the portal to Alterac, which is basically equivalent to going to Dalaran. You only need to solve a few small details in the magic circuit to make sure you don't go wrong.
If there are any "small flaws" in the current portal of the Hanhai Protector, it is that it is very easy to go to Alterac from the Hanhai Protector, but it is much more difficult to get to the Hanhai Protector from Alterac. After all, it is here
The magical gravity is much smaller.
This is not something that can be solved in a short time. If you want to increase the magic gravity of a point, you must sort out the magic network in the entire area and concentrate the magic power. In a place where magic is scarce like the Hanhai Protectorate, this requires
a long time.
"That is to say, within a short period of time, it is just a step from here to Alterac. But the success rate of teleporting from Alterac to here is frighteningly low?"
Li De summarized Kel'Thuzad's words.
"Yes, that's it."
Despite this, Kel'Thuzad still came up with a solution.
"The success rate is indeed very low, but if there is a magician here to maintain the teleportation gate for a long time and increase the magic gravity, and if Alterac hires a great magician to accurately seize the teleportation node, it can still succeed in one go.
."
Li De rolled his eyes. Kel'Thuzad probably didn't say what he said. Who maintains the portal in Alterac, it's just two junior mages.
Although this portal still has some flaws, it is already a great convenience compared to before, and Li De is already very satisfied.
"Thank you, sir, let's go take a look at the situation at the portal. If there is no problem, I plan to send a messenger to Alterac first to make some suggestions for the next military operation."
The portal is located in a separate house in the academy area. Lid said this to Kel'Thuzad on the road, and at the same time reached out to pull the door of the room.
"I'm sure there's no problem."
Just when Li De said this, a voice suddenly came from the room, and then the door was pushed open from the inside, and an old man in a robe walked out.
"Great Mage?!"
Li De looked at Antonidas with some surprise, not expecting that he would appear in the Hanhai Protectorate like this.
"When Kel'Thuzad built the prototype of the teleportation array, I made preparations in Dalaran. The alliance needs you now. Danas suffered a defeat in the cursed land, and we need a trustworthy person.
Commander, Lothar recommended you to us."
After hearing what Antonidas said, Li De subconsciously wanted to ask them to hire Gao Ming, but what Antonidas said next made Li De realize the seriousness of the problem.
"Before, we only relied on teleporting magic patterns to communicate, and many details could not be explained. Turalyon was lost in the Cursed Land and did not come out; Khadgar was already dying when he teleported to Dalaran to ask for help; Danas retreated to the Swamp of Sorrows, and we sent
The troops went to investigate but could not find him, only a temporary camp that was attacked.
Ansrem has led Dalaran's mage team south, but we really can't find anyone else who can be the commander of the main force.
Lothar had to stay in Alterac to guard. Red Blackhand and Maim Blackhand gathered a group of people to hide in Blackstone Mountain, and under the banner of the chief of the tribe, they already learned that there were many people from the old tribe.
The remaining troops are gathering towards the Burning Plains."
Among the group of fugitives in Lordaeron, the first two idiots to jump out were Red and Maim, whom Red had already thought of.
If it were any other time, Li De really wouldn't mind playing with these two idiots, but in this situation, even guys like Reid and Maimu may cause huge harm to the alliance.
"I know you have concerns. Your country is far away on another continent. If you can't feel at ease, you won't be able to command the troops without any distractions.
But the Alliance has decided that the mage troops I brought will be stationed here, and the navy of Kul Tiras will arrive soon."
Now that the matter has come to this, Li De has no reason to evade.
"I understand, but before setting off, I need to take care of a number of things."
"That's natural. I just hope you can do it as soon as possible. I can also strengthen Kel'Thuzad's magic while I have time."
The situation was urgent, so Li De immediately started working. In order to save time, he directly opened the door of his office and processed the documents sent by various departments.
"There is no progress in the exploration of Thousand Needles? Tell Niebuhr and Brad that this matter can be postponed. First, 500... no, 800 elite soldiers will be transferred from the army, and pre-war mobilization will begin from now on.
."
"Van Cleef has completed the design drawings of the bridge from Dustwallow Swamp to Theramore? Very good. Last month through the logistics supply business, I brought back the first batch of 150,000 gold coins. Now the funds are sufficient, the Ministry of Finance
Discretionary funding can be made there.”
Selling the compressed biscuit production line, selling cans and bedclothes brought an income of 15 gold coins to the Hanhai Protector. To be honest, Li De was already very kind. It was purely a friendly price within the alliance, which was enough for an army of 10,000 people to consume for half a year.
Saved the alliance half of its expenses.
It's just that most of this batch of supplies has been wasted with the former army. Li De can't suppress his anger when he thinks of these. The Protector of Hanhai and Kezan are destined to have a war. Now through trade with Lordaeron, the food problem has basically been solved.
The solution is that the cotton raw material is now stuck in the neck by Kezan.
Just as Li De was thinking about this matter, Veresa walked in with a piece of information.
"Protector, we have found out that Kezan's cotton comes from the barren lands in the north, mainly concentrated in Razorfen. The hot sand has enslaved a large number of quilboar people to grow cotton for him."
After listening to Veresa's report, Li De suddenly realized.
"This guy has hidden deep enough. He has been in business for so long before he can figure out where all his cotton comes from. What can we do after knowing the origin of his cotton?"
Li De's question stumped Veresa.
"Steamy Sands has absolute control over the area through Ratchet City. It is impossible for us to directly purchase cotton across Hotsands. Even if we plan the uprising of the local wild boars, it will be difficult to help us in a practical sense."
After Veresa tentatively expressed her opinion, Li De also sighed.
"It's true. Outside of Tanaris, our influence in Kalimdor is quite limited. The geographical conditions limit us, so that we don't know the specific conditions in many places in the north! What races live there, and what kind of people are there?
What kind of property!”
Everything has advantages and disadvantages. Since you settled in a relatively closed and safe land like Tanaris, you have to bear the disadvantages it brings. Previously, the sand trolls were trapped here for ten thousand years and never came out. The Protector of the Vast Sea
How easy is it to go out now?
"I'm sorry, Protector, it's our fault in our work."
Li De waved his hand.
"I don't mean to blame you. You are both a cadre of the Ministry of Civil Affairs and a women's representative in the Imperial Guard. Now you have to assist Haggard in intelligence spying. It is not easy to do this to such a degree with multiple functions.
Already.
Let's leave this matter as it is. I'll think of a solution through other aspects. You can go back first. Willy, you send Veresa off for me."
Because there was so much work that needed to be handled, it was obviously impossible to accommodate everyone for too long, so Viri, the security guard and secretary, sent Veresa out of the office.
Just as the two of them walked out of the door, another person walked into the office almost brushing against them.
"Van Cleef? Didn't the people from the Engineering Academy just send you the design plan? I have already approved it?"
Li De asked with some confusion, but unexpectedly Van Cleef shook his head.
"Protector, I proactively ask you for a position. I request to take over the intelligence work from Minister Haggard."
"Why do you suddenly have such an idea?"
"Guardian, I know you have always valued my talent in construction, but now I feel that I have become a protected person.
Our urban construction work is on the right track, and I no longer need to be like a foreman and go to the construction site all the time. Most of my other colleagues have at least two jobs, which makes me a little restless."
Li De began to think about the feasibility of this matter. Van Cleef was indeed a master of stealth. In this regard, he was irreplaceable in the Hanhai Protectorate. In contrast, in terms of city construction, although Van Cleef is still very important.
, but it is no longer as irreplaceable as it was in the early stages of Hanhai Protector's development.
Van Cleef thought Li De didn't want to agree yet, so he immediately spoke.
"I propose to open another architecture school in the college area. I have summarized my work experience into notes, which can be used as teaching materials for the architecture school."
Van Cleef's move made Li De laugh.
"Okay, it seems that you have 'premeditated it'! Since you said so, you will take over the intelligence work from Haggard from today on. Of course, you can't take over the city construction affairs right away.
Put it down, you need to coordinate with Bigwitz."
With this in his mouth, Li De quickly signed the letter of appointment. Van Cleef immediately stood up and spoke in a loud voice.
