"I apologize for being reckless just now. Our flying mounts are still being tamed and they are not very obedient.
I hope you can take my behavior just now as a welcome to everyone."
The night elves finally landed in the Shining Plains, and because they were in a bit of a hurry, the meeting was finally arranged in the lounge of the flight test ground.
The waiter brought over a plate of hot towels, and Li De signaled to invite the guests first, while he picked it up last and wiped his face and neck, which were covered in dust from the flight just now.
At the beginning of entering the lounge, both parties had already introduced each other.
Li De was still a little surprised that a big man like Fandral Staghelm came to protect the Hanhai.
He knew that this person was difficult to deal with. At the same time, he was more curious about the purpose of the night elves sending high-level officials here this time.
Fandral Staghelm had been almost silent since he sat down, while Grashina Spiritwind did the talking.
"For nearly a thousand years, Kalimdor has been largely peaceful.
You and the goblins are both outsiders. The night elves do not reject outsiders, but you have brought war.
We are representing the High Priest of the Moon to express our concerns about the war, and hope that we can promote a ceasefire between the two sides and resolve the issue in a peaceful manner."
Grashina stated her intention directly, and Li De showed her understanding with a smile, but did not give any reply in words.
Kel'Thuzad, who was sitting next to Li De, blinked and put his hands up.
"Strictly speaking, the war we are engaged in is not a war taking place in Kalimdor.
It is a war to protect the safety of the entire Azeroth and is subordinate to the aftermath of the Orc War.
The goblins cooperated with the traitor black dragon of Azeroth to provide weapons and supplies to the orcs who invaded the other world.
Those who commit such a heinous crime must be punished. Therefore, it is just for us to launch this war, and the guardian dragon's views are consistent with ours on this point."
After Kel'Thuzad finished speaking, Grashina Spiritwind had nothing to say for a short time, and only Fandral Staghelm suddenly said something.
"Dragon? Haha."
This statement made everyone confused. What does this "haha" mean?
In order to make the conversation more meaningful, Grashina suggested that everyone enter Tanaris, the capital of the Vast Sea Protector, and learn more about the current war situation before making plans.
Li De readily agreed to this and specially arranged a sightseeing bus to invite the night elves to experience the characteristics of the Hanhai Protector.
The night elves looked at the sightseeing car powered by a hybrid between a giant lizard and a machine with great curiosity.
The hippogryphs they rode were all placed in the flight test ground, leaving a sentry responsible for feeding them the special feed they brought.
Throughout the entire journey from the Shining Plains to Tanaris, Staghelm had folded his arms and remained silent, pretending to be cold.
It is true that he has a bad personality, and it is also true that he has outstanding abilities. After coming to the Hanhai Protectorate, Lu Kai saw too many things beyond his expectations.
He felt that it was necessary for him to speak less and read more now, and to fully understand the other person first, so as not to make mistakes in his judgment.
Unfortunately, even though Staghelm was rational enough, he still lost his composure on the spot when he entered Tanaris' range.
"This is Tanaris?!"
Staghelm had been to Tanaris before, but that was a long time ago.
After the Great Schism, the living kingdom of the night elves replaced the magic empire of the past.
The world has changed, and the political power has also changed. The Moon Priest and the Druids will definitely launch a wave of "belief in nature, new dynasty and elegant government".
So the night elves began to measure and record the continent of Kalimdor, and judged that the land in that area was worthy of the night elves living in, and those areas were worthless land that could be discarded.
It was against this background that Staghelm once observed Tanaris, and at that time his evaluation of the place was worthless.
Tanaris is poor and has nothing but a bunch of nasty trolls having fun.
But now he looked at Tanaris. Although the land was equally barren, compared to the pure desolate desert, the sandy land was simply fertile soil.
Shandris felt somewhat sympathetic to the gaffe of Staghelm and others. She and Li De looked at each other and smiled.
She believed that anyone who came to the Hanhai Protectorate and understood what happened here would definitely understand that Li De was on the side of the good camp.
Because Shandris firmly believes that the power to summon those great wonders must come from the only true god of Azeroth!
Unfortunately, Shandris got it wrong after all. Her ideas and logic cannot be applied to everyone.
To be more specific, Shandris doesn't understand Staghelm.
In the ancient city of Petra, Staghelit felt the majestic life energy. He firmly believed that only the original power could change the environment of such a large area.
In the end, I don’t know how his brain circuit turned, but he actually decided that the original power of Azeroth was at risk of being leaked again!
Yes, he believes that the ancient city of Petra is the product of the leakage of Azeroth's original power.
Staghelm, who has the world in his heart, is almost in a neurotic state and extremely excited to demand a truce between the alliance and the goblins.
"The most important thing now is to stop the leakage of the original power! Nothing else matters!
This is true for both sides in the war. No inch of land will be safe!
We must stop the turbulence of war! We must work hard to solve the most important problems.”
And to ask what the solution Fandral gave...
Judging from the mature experience accumulated over thousands of years after the War of the Ancients, Fandral Staghelm’s proposal must be to plant trees.
Staghelm proposed to plant a world tree on the ancient city of Petra, completely wrapping the ancient city of Petra in its roots!
One thing to say, Li De can basically confirm that the little game of planting the World Tree is extremely addictive.
After all, planting a small sapling and then watching it grow into a towering tree with enough power for millions of people to survive in a short period of time is really a sense of accomplishment like no other.
Comparable.
How could Li De agree to such an outrageous proposal?
Li De learned a lesson today about Staghelit's paranoid and over-reactive character.
At the same time, Li De was also glad that thanks to Lu Gui, he saw the wonders and the beautiful side.
It’s absolutely impossible for Lu Helmet to visit the breeding farm at Quicksand Sentence. If Lu Helmet knew that the Hanhai Protector was treating dangerous creatures like insects as fodder for monitor lizards, he would definitely go crazy!
In short, under the constant attack of paranoia, Graxina Lingfeng found that she now completely lost her direction.
Originally, what they had to do was to pay close attention to the battlefield situation and judge whether it would harm the interests of the night elves.
But now, the night elves are developing in the weird direction of harming the interests of the Governor of the Vast Sea. Regarding the wonders of the Governor of the Vast Sea, Lingfeng holds a relatively calm attitude.
After all, in Azeroth, it is normal for any magical things to happen.
At the same time, Grashina also criticized Staghelm's solution.
Staghelm has a criminal record. As the only Archdruid in history who planted the World Tree, the night elves' top brass basically knew that he had a "great plan" in his mind for "everyone to have a tree."
Therefore, Lingfeng cannot judge whether Staghelm's statement that the ancient city of Petra is related to the original power of Azeroth is really based on the Arch Druid's keen judgment, or whether it is just an excuse.
For a while, the dialogue between the two parties reached a stalemate, and everyone was in urgent need of an excellent mediator to mediate.
