Chapter 302: The Dilemma of the Light of Civilization
"We have another unkind request. Kezan hopes to have richer exchanges with the respected Kaldorei. I don't know..."
Hot Sand said with a bit of flattery, Malfurion looked at the goblin condescendingly.
"This matter is unnecessary. The Kaldorei have no urgent need for foreign trade. If there is a need for communication, we can go to Ratchet City.
There is one more thing I want to remind you, Azshara is a land full of dangers, and disturbing Azshara too much will make Azshara, who is already restless, even more dangerous."
After hitting a soft nail here with Malfurion, Hotsand is not discouraged. This matter can still be taken slowly. In terms of diplomatic relations, if Kezan can climb into the lap of the night elves, he will have trouble with other groups in the future.
Conflict doesn’t mean you are so isolated and helpless.
At this time, Malfurion frowned subconsciously. Although he was willing to give the goblins a chance to try and make mistakes, he did not like to communicate with the goblins at close range for a long time.
Because he disliked the body odor of goblins, especially the body odor of Hot Sand, which was so sour that it almost made Malfurion sick. He couldn't help but have a question. As the most powerful person among the goblins, Hot Sand
Don’t you usually take a shower?
"How's the handover going with you and the dragon?"
It felt like he wouldn't be able to bear the smell for a while, so Malfurion could only change the subject. In fact, Malfurion didn't need to worry about Kezan explaining the black dragon problem to the dragon army.
"Everything has been accounted for, and all the items left by the Black Dragon have been handed over to Prince Krasus of the Red Dragon Legion according to the list."
Hot Sand took the trouble to explain, and Malfurion could only say helplessly.
"That's good. I don't have anything else to do here. Please go and do your own business."
Malfurion had already issued an order to expel him, and Hotsand did not bother him too much to arouse his resentment. Then all the trade kings left together. However, what Hotsand didn't know was that in Malfurion's heart, he had already been marked with "Don't tell anyone."
"Hygiene" label.
"Strim Wilder, why do you have to wrong yourself so much?"
On the way back, Gigvondt asked with some confusion.
"Ha, after all, we are also businessmen. Businessmen must be able to assess the situation and make appropriate interactions. What's the point of having a humble attitude? Really reaping benefits is the most real thing.
The Dark Night has a profound foundation, and as long as they are willing, they can have a huge influence on today's world. The surrender letter is a shackles on us, and Kezan cannot remain alone."
Rousha said it very seriously, and at the same time, he remembered something.
"Have all the Alliance prisoners of war been sent aboard?"
Although the Alliance as a whole won the war, some people were still captured by Kezan, mostly engineers and sailors.
"They have all been put on the ship. They will almost arrive at Hope Port by this time tomorrow."
Gallywix, who was responsible for delivering the prisoners of war, said, and then he raised another question.
"However, among the prisoners we delivered, there is no Noggenfogg mentioned by the Hanhai Protector. What do you think of that guy?"
Gigfund realized something and asked Hot Sand in a low voice.
"Are you trying to silence yourself?"
Hot Sand shook his head and laughed.
"How could it be possible? How could such a valuable person be silenced? I kept him here specifically to sell him at a good price."
Hearing what Roussa said, Gigfund felt a little relieved, but a big question arose in his mind.
Some time ago, both he and Hotsand spent their time in fear. The greatest druids of the night elves, the two Dragon Kings, both came to Kezan. If Hotsand's identity as a fel warlock was discovered, there would be no doubt that
will be obliterated.
But the result is very surprising. There are so many legendary and even god-like figures, but they haven’t seen through the identity of Hot Sand?!
Although Gigvondt was relieved to have survived the test, the alchemist developed a huge thirst for knowledge.
Everyone else returned to their base camp one after another, and only Gigvont followed Hot Sand to his palace.
"Strimwild, what are you going to do? Noggenfogg knows that you are a warlock. Are you going to cast a spell on him and erase his memory?"
Hot Sand gave a negative answer.
"No matter how clever your magic is, its traces will be revealed. The best way to hide a secret, other than silence, is to ask someone who knows the secret to keep it secret for you.
During this time, I have gained a new understanding of evil energy. My friend, are you interested in becoming a warlock?"
Gigfund was startled by Hotsand's suggestion.
"Sorry, I still love my career as an alchemist more. The most important thing when making potions is to abide by the rules. Once the order of potions is broken, no matter how precious the materials are, they will only produce a pile of waste liquid.
Glutamine
So I really hate the chaos brought by fel energy. To be honest, your original fel eye ruined a good potion for me."
From the standpoint of friendship, Gigvont was on Hotsand's side, but Gigvont made no secret of his views on evil energy. It was only out of the principle of not interfering with the other party's freedom that Gigvont did not persuade Hotsand.
Give up evil energy.
Being rejected by his best friend made Rousa feel a little disappointed.
"What a pity, my friend, that you have missed the truth."
When it comes to evil energy, the two people have completely different views, which makes the conversation end unhappily.
After sending Gigvont away, Hot Sand came to the basement alone. The secret room at the end of the upstairs corridor is actually a secret room that can be made public to the public, and its main purpose is to show people. Hot Sand's real secret room is actually built in
underground.
After opening several locks, Hot Sand met Nogfogg here.
After seeing Hot Sand, Noggenfogg sneered and said.
"You bastard, why didn't you bring any food? It looks like today is the day I die."
After moving Noggenfogg here, in order to keep the secret secret, Hot Sand was so careful that he even delivered every day's meals himself.
In the beginning, Noggenfogg scolded Hotsand for not being trustworthy. Later, he gave up all hope of leaving here alive and often insulted his former boss unceremoniously.
"Hey, don't be so excited. It's still early for dinner, and I want to take this opportunity to chat with you."
"I have nothing to talk about with you."
"No, I'm quite interested in you, the Protector of the Vast Sea. This is no lie. It's such an amazing feat to make even the most capricious goblin loyal to him? I really want to know more about the 'Light of Civilization'
'."
This surprised Noggenfogg, and after pondering for a moment, he finally agreed to the other party's request.
Because he didn't know what the other party's intentions were, apart from the idea of "Light of Civilization", Noggenfogg remained tight-lipped about any specific information related to the Protector of the Vast Sea.
In the process of his narration, Hot Sand acted as a good listener, but occasionally asked some very good questions, which surprised Nogfogg even more. He gradually realized that Hot Sand's starting point was not to ridicule.
kind, but sincerely want to understand the "light of civilization".
"The light of civilization is based on the original strength, advocates freedom and equality, and we respect everything that exists.
The ultimate pursuit is coexistence with mutual elimination of grudges, but the process of pursuing the ultimate goal is positive and is based on protecting the interests of the majority of people."
But in the end, Noggenfogg still couldn't hide his ridicule towards Hotsand.
"Of course, I think this kind of thinking must be naive in your opinion and can never be realized. As a person, how can you truly understand the 'Light of Civilization'? The Light of Civilization will not reject anyone, but there are always people
They are unwilling to embrace the light of civilization."
After hearing Noggenfogg's taunt, Hot Sand actually didn't get angry at all, but instead laughed.
"Hahahaha, don't you feel awkward? Aren't your words biased against me? Doesn't this deviate from the light of civilization?"
Noggenfogg was speechless for a moment, not knowing how to refute the other party. Just when he was stunned, something unexpected happened!
Hot Sand's hands gathered strong evil energy and pushed them out, and the vast energy flow impacted Noggenfogg's body.
Noggenfogg was convinced at this moment that the other party was going to kill him, but when the energy flow dissipated, Noggenfogg was shocked to find that he was still alive?!
"Congratulations, you have become the second goblin warlock in history."
Hotsand said with a smile, and Noggenfogg was filled with sadness and anger.
"What on earth are you going to do, you despicable guy?!"
Streamwilder did not answer his question directly, but kept talking to himself.
"I'll tell you good news. A few days ago, Kezan officially surrendered to the Alliance and the Dragon. At that time, the Archdruid and the Dragon King came to the scene. What's interesting is that none of these great strong men noticed my
Warlock identity?"
Noggenfogg didn't understand what he was going to say?
"Are you showing off your talents? They can't see through you, but they can find out that I am a warlock? And then let them kill me?
Your way of torturing people is really perverted, haha, I will make your secret known to the public even if I die!"
"No, no, no, you may be mistaken. I don't think there is anything special about me. Including my wealth, I sometimes think it is luck.
Don’t you understand yet? It’s not me who is special, it’s the goblins who are special. I believe evil energy and goblins have a wonderful fate.
Isn’t the ‘Light of Civilization’ based on the original power inclusive of everything? I plan to pose a difficult problem to Protector Hanhai and Protector Li De. As one of the six original powers, evil energy, how will the ‘Light of Civilization’ treat it?”
