The headquarters of the special forces in the Faraki Mountains became crowded due to the arrival of experts from all sides.
In addition to the members of the original special forces, there are seven experts from the Kaldorei, six experts from the Explorers Association, and a historian from Zandalari, Takshiro.
Li De is here to introduce experts to each other.
"This is Takshiro, the great elder of Zandalar. He is an excellent historian and linguist. During the war with the orcs, the great elder promoted our research on orc history and orc language, and also Help us solve the problem of the Krothos giant."
The Kaldorei and dwarf scholars were all in awe. Takshiro's reputation was quite high in academic circles, and everyone present had heard about it.
Taxiro always had a modest smile on his face, while complaining half-truthfully and half-falsely about Li De.
"I don't deserve such high praise. I'm just an old man who was halfway through studying history and couldn't write anymore. If you really look into it, I don't even have a complete book."
No one took Takshiro's self-effacement seriously. His unfinished work was a history book that took two hundred years to complete, which is much longer than the lifetime of many mortal races.
Li De also laughed when he said this. He recalled that the great elder whom he had used violent words to accuse suddenly stopped what he was doing. It had been several years since he said it.
"This is all my fault. If it weren't for me, your general history of the world would have been completed long ago."
Taxiro pointed at Li De and smiled so hard that he was speechless. It took him a while to speak.
"It's not just your fault, it's all your fault for opening up your old age's horizons. Thinking about it, I was really arrogant at the time, hoping to use a general history to explain all the past problems in the world, but I didn't want to be so unlucky that I encountered a major change that had never happened in ten thousand years. .
But it's all thanks to you, otherwise when the general history is completed, it will also be the day when we Zandalari historians become clowns.
It sounds like our general history should be completed, but what is completed is only a summary of past history.
A new history is beginning, and I can’t see clearly which direction it will take in the future. I just want to live well and see more of this wonderful era.”
"Ha, then Bangsandhi is really depressed."
There was another burst of laughter, and Taxiro and Li De both understood it tacitly.
Takshiro chose to stay in the Vast Sea Protector for three reasons. One was to participate in the research here, the other was to serve as a priest of Bwonsamdi, and the last one was to avoid the reforms that Zandalar was about to start.
He was already old and didn't want to get involved in too many intrigues. When he noticed the wind in Zandalari, he chose to retreat for the time being. He didn't plan to go back for at least three years.
…
After getting to know each other, Li De began to introduce the next work content.
“Everyone has a certain understanding of what we want to do.
Specifically speaking, it is to solve the real contradiction of the raging Feralas insect swarm; grandly speaking, it is to study the impact of insect swarm activities on the natural climate; to rise to the highest level, it is to explore the relationship between life and nature.
Among the experts, there are naturalists, animal and plant experts, geographers and historians. In the next period of time, I hope that everyone can work together to bring us closer to the truth and at the same time solve the problems of the residents of Feralas.
.
This is copied from the notes of Medivh, the guardian of Tirisfal, and contains Medivh's research on this aspect. I hope it can provide you with some ideas."
As he spoke, Li De took out the manuscript copied by Khadgar from his arms. Khadgar himself was not present at today's meeting. He is not good at natural research, and he still has his own studies. He feels that he
Previously, I relied too much on the Staff of Atiesh.
'The entire natural system is a whole, and the prosperity and decline of life will have an impact on climate change...'
"This summary is amazing! It said everything I wanted to say but couldn't say clearly!"
Brian said with admiration.
If Brian was just amazed, then Hiloma was shocked. What she read was another paragraph.
‘Does a Creator really exist? The human race seems to have a Creator. At least the Vrykul, the ancestors of the human race, were created by the Titans.
But why did the Creator shape the Vrykul into the appearance of the Vrykul? Is this due to the Creator's subjective initiative or a hint given to the Creator by nature?
The Creator's creation of the Vrykul may have failed because the Vrykul created by reason degenerated beyond the control of reason.
But when the Vrykul degenerated into the human race, the degeneration stopped, and the human race's appearance and physical characteristics stabilized. Does this mean that the human race's physical appearance and nature have formed a new balance?
Are our hands, our feet, our eyes, and our brains the product of reconciliation with the world?'
"This is really a genius conjecture! We always want to explore the meaning beyond existence, but we never thought that existence itself has profound meaning!
I thought I had thoroughly studied the body structure of the bugs, but I had never thought about what made the bugs have such a body structure! I seemed to understand where to go!"
Over there, Takshiro was holding a piece of light paper and was speechless for a long time, as if this piece of paper was extremely heavy.
‘Is it really arcana that determines all things? I think this needs to be questioned.
The ultimate form of arcana is order, and order is keen on trimming irregular things. The world we live in is generally regular, but irregular things are also allowed to exist.
Humans, dwarves, and gnomes can be classified as Titan creations, but why do many races that are not Titan creations follow the body pattern of one spine, extended limbs, symmetrical sides, two eyes, one nose and one mouth?
Does this mean there are natural, unbreakable rules for shaping life?
But this rule is quite gentle. It allows different races to develop according to their own personalities due to their different environments.
It, or should we say He? That thing that transcends everything can be personified, right?
The mages believe in the narrative logic of the Titan's creation, while the elves are willing to believe that the being is Elune, and the trolls call him Loa - but the trolls seem to be getting worse and worse in their ability to deal with abstract concepts. In order to facilitate understanding
They gave the concept of Loa to many powerful beings.'
Medivh expressed his views on Loa in a very cold and restrained style, but little did he know that after his death many years ago, these words deeply touched a troll.
"This mage guardian understands history and Loa! He indeed revealed the essence of Loa! Isn't it the miraculous craftsmanship created by nature that we worship!
It’s ridiculous how many trolls who believe in Loa now can’t understand that they use Loa belief to seek status for themselves, and even go so far as to annex and eliminate other sects!”
At this point, Takshiro felt that he had made a mistake and immediately kept silent. However, he still rubbed the paper with unfinished thoughts.
"I really want to meet this guardian, the respectable wise man."
It’s also a good thing that there are no mages or other high-level leaders of the Alliance from Dalaran. You must know that the current political correctness is to criticize the great traitor Medivh.
"Everyone, I think you have basically finished reading it, right?"
Li De clapped his hands gently to call everyone's attention.
"It seems that Medivh's notes have brought some inspiration to everyone, so can everyone come up with a general research direction now?"
After the scholars were polite to each other, they started to speak enthusiastically. After about two hours, they came up with a quite comprehensive research plan:
First, observe and sort out the natural ecological conditions of the Feras area.
Then, through the existing Zerg data, we conduct comparative observation and research with the Feralas Swarm to sort out the development and changes of the Feralas Swarm.
Then we will study the lower levels of Feras, trying to excavate animal and plant fossils to build an ecological network and explain the relationship between different species.
Then through historical research such as archeology, meteorological observation data of past dynasties were obtained.
Finally, these comprehensive studies will lead to a rough relationship between species evolution and climate change.
In terms of reality, a suitable plan can be formulated to completely solve the Zerg problem in Feralas.
After coming up with this plan, Kel'Thuzad, who had only listened without commenting, raised his hand.
"I would like to make one additional comment. In specific research, mathematics can be introduced as a research tool. Mathematical models are most conducive to statistics and summary.
There are several excellent mathematicians at the Mathematics Institute of Hanhai Protectorate. They are all students I brought out, and they should be able to help.
I'm sorry that I will be returning to Dalaran soon to report on my duties and will not be able to participate in this operation."
After saying that, Kel'Thuzad did not forget to cast an apologetic look at Siloma.
After such a long delay, Kel'Thuzad was finally going to return to Dalaran. Lid and the others also knew that Kel'Thuzad was going back this time to join the Kirin Tor Council of Six.
Li De noticed the look of resentment in Hiloma's eyes. He knew that in recent days, because of his affairs with Shandis, Hiloma had some admiration for him, but at this juncture, Kel'Thuzad wanted to
When you leave, you can immediately change the topic.
"Let's get back to our topic. There is still a problem that needs to be solved. Where should the operational headquarters be located?"
Although it is to change the topic, it is still an issue that needs to be solved urgently. The object of investigation is Feralas, so it is not appropriate to continue to use the base in the Falaki Mountains.
But it cannot be located directly in Feralas, because Li De intends to build a new base that can be used for a long time once and for all.
This base needs to be convenient for scholars to observe and study, and it must be close to Feralas but not too far away from the Vast Sea Protector.
Finally, after Brian's suggestion, the location of the new base was decided on Un'Goro Crater, because it is extremely rich in species and is simply a natural natural laboratory.
