Chapter 1270 Turmoil (Today there was another power outage and internet disconnection, it was so miserable)
After killing the ancient god named C'Thun, Duanmuhuai returned to the Tribunal stronghold in Tirisfal Glades.
After all, he originally went out to investigate the situation of human beings in this world. For now, human beings are still dominant in this world, which is enough for Duanmu Huai.
As for the aliens in the tribe... Duanmu Huai doesn't have time to waste on them.
After returning to the stronghold, Duanmu Huai gave everyone the gifts he bought from Stormwind City.
Of course, the big ones were Mary and An, but Duanmuhuai didn't favor one over the other. He also brought gifts to the other girls, but there were no such rare ones as the magic mount.
An and Mary also liked the magic mounts given by Duanmu Huai very much. In fact, Duanmu Huai didn't say which one to give to which at first, but let them choose by themselves.
The result was that An chose the relatively mild-tempered fox Qiu Yi, while Mary fell in love with the lively and playful warm velvet cat.
This actually surprised Duanmu Huai, because according to his observation, Qiu Yizhihu's personality was similar to Mary's, both of them were quiet and quiet. The Nuannirong cat is as lively and playful as An. Originally, Duanmuhuai thought it would be like its owner - but unexpectedly, the two of them chose the one with a completely different personality from their own, and these two magical pets also He looks very pleased with his master.
Maybe this is what is called complementarity?
While An Ye was petting the fox, he began to report to Duanmu Huai what happened at the Tribunal stronghold while he was out.
Unsurprisingly, this place attracted many secret temptations from various forces. Of course, adhering to the Tribunal's usual open strategy, Ann did not put any special effort into vigilance. Basically, when someone came to investigate, she always adopted an open-door attitude and went to investigate like Mathias from the Kingdom of Stormwind. , and then there were several people who were invited in to drink tea and chat with confused expressions.
According to An's analysis, in addition to the Kingdom of Storm, which Duanmuhuai had visited before, these forces also include dwarves, dwarfs, and a race calling themselves blood elves. They have all come here to conduct investigations, and even received a representative from the Holy Light Church. .
Overall...well, the situation is not optimistic.
All the forces seemed to criticize the human supremacy of the Tribunal. Even the human bishop of the Holy Light Church believed that this approach was not suitable for the current world. In the final analysis, they still hope to coexist peacefully and fight against foreign enemies together...
"It's all bullshit."
Duanmuhuai directly threw the information in his hand aside.
"Do you think we are fools? The Alliance and Horde people are all out of their minds. Why are you talking to me about racial unity here? Why don't you unite with the trolls or orcs?"
Duanmu Huai sneered at this. When he was in Stormwind City, he had some rough understanding of the history of this world. He knew that a few years ago, a race called the orcs opened the Dark Portal and invaded Azeroth, causing great damage to the Eastern Kingdom. . Later, the human kingdoms at that time joined forces to defeat the orcs.
However, after that, the king of Lordaeron made a decision that Duanmu Huai considered to be very retarded. Instead of executing all the orc captives, he established various internment camps and took in the orcs!
Perhaps the king's original intention was to use the orcs as slaves, but in Duanmu Huai's view, this was no different from a retard.
In fact, among players, many people have discussed such a contradictory topic.
Is that why there are always forces that like to conquer foreign races and then use them as slaves?
From a logical point of view, this seems to make sense. Slaves can be used or killed as they please, and all dirty, tiring and dangerous jobs are done to them. All you have to do is lie down and count the money, which is called happiness and freedom. Slave owners or nobles can think this way, and that's fine.
But from a national perspective, there is a problem.
That is - slaves have done all the dirty and hard work, what will happen to the poor in the country?
It is impossible for any country to be without poor people. So how do poor people live? The best way is naturally to let them work, and most of these people do not have any extraordinary wisdom or cultural knowledge. If you want to let them work, then naturally it is dirty work that does not require any skills or culture.
But if slaves do all this, wouldn’t the poor have to starve to death if they lose their jobs?
The question is, are they willing to starve to death?
Indeed, slaves may have less food than poor people, and they don't need much wages. They die when they die, and they have no human rights. But the problem is that if you think about it from the perspective of national stability, isn’t this approach of preferring friends to domestic slaves to force the poor to rebel?
Just to save a few bucks, invest the entire country? Is it worth it?
The same is true for the orc shelter opened by Lordaeron. In Duanmu Huai's view, these orc captives are not assets, but a burden. Facts have proved that in the end Lordaeron played itself to death, and this was a large part of the reason why the original largest country of mankind turned into a happy scene of disco dancing on the graves of the undead.
Similar situations have occurred in history before. The most famous one is Bai Qi's trap to kill 400,000 surrendered troops.
Why do this? The reason is very simple, Qin State cannot afford it!
As for letting go? That definitely can't be put away. Wouldn't it be in vain if you put it back?
But I can’t afford it, so what should I do? We can only kill them all.
In Duanmu Huai's view, this Lordaeron is missing Bai Qi.
If all those orcs were killed, there would be no such troubles. The result? You build an orc shelter, and finally create a tribe! After so many years of alliance tribes coming and going, the number of people who died is probably no less than when the orcs invaded Azeroth.
It once again proves that if you cut the grass without eradicating the roots, the spring breeze will bring forth new life. This is a famous aphorism.
If it were the Tribunal, they would definitely kill all these orcs, and fight through the Dark Portal to completely exterminate them! To avoid future troubles!
Temporary benevolence of women will only bring long-term pain and disaster. Look, isn't this a ready-made example now?
If Bai Qi had not killed the 400,000 surrendered troops, Qin might not have been able to achieve the feat of destroying the six kingdoms and unifying the world.
Lordaeron didn't kill the orcs, but instead built shelters for them. As a result, he was now dead, and the undead were stalking their graves every day.
Duanmuhuai also told An about the King of Storm Kingdom Varian whom he met. Basically, Duanmuhuai didn't like Varian very much, and to be honest, Duanmuhuai didn't care much about the current situation of humans on this planet. Somewhat pessimistic. He originally planned to support human forces to rise to power, but the problem is that Varian does not seem to be a very ambitious person.
This is... a headache.
People like Palpatine or Count Dooku are easier to deal with. The Inquisition is not afraid of you being unprincipled, but it is afraid of being too principled.
"Miss An."
Just when Duanmuhuai was complaining to An Da, Mary walked in with her big orange cat.
"The Kingdom of Stormwind sent a division to contact us." "Oh? Why did they send people here?"
Before An could speak, Duanmu Huai asked curiously.
"Maybe you want to build an embassy here, but I won't do it."
"They hope to reach a deal with the Inquisition to purchase one hundred logging mechas."
"Mecha for logging?"
An was confused after hearing what Mary said.
"Does the Inquisition have this?"
"Of course."
Duanmuhuai chuckled.
"Otherwise, how do you think you bought your pets? I don't have the currency of this world."
"Uh... Mr. Knight, you are too..."
Hearing Duanmuhuai's answer, An was speechless, and finally sighed helplessly and stood up.
"Okay, okay, for the sake of the gift, I'll go negotiate with them... It can be sold, right?"
"You can sell it, but we don't want money. You can do it yourself."
The currency of Azeroth is worthless to the Inquisition. If Duanmuhuai wants to use the technology of the Inquisition, it will be enough to create fake Azeroth gold coins in just a few minutes, enough to make the entire continent of Azeroth Inflation a hundred times.
So Duanmuhuai wants more local specialties. As for what specialties... you can decide for yourself, I won't interfere.
The Tribunal here began to cooperate further with the Kingdom of Stormwind, and in Silithus, there were still people who were busy dealing with the mess left by Duanmu Huai.
"What the hell is going on..."
Standing on the edge of the crater, the night elves looked at each other in confusion. There was the night elf Feathermoon Fortress above Silithus. After discovering the abnormality in Silithus, the night elf sentry force general Sandy stationed at the Feathermoon Fortress Si Yuyue personally led his soldiers to Silisus as quickly as possible for support.
Shandris Feather Moon once participated in the Battle of Quicksand and knew very well about the Qiraji and the ancient gods behind them. In fact, at first, she thought it was the Qiraji who had found a way to get rid of the beetles. The wall seal method unlocks the seal that has become fragile due to time in advance.
The result...well, almost nothing is left here.
The night elves searched Silithus and found no useful clues except for a few half-dead bronze dragons.
"Doesn't anyone know what's going on here?"
Shandris Yuyue stared at the garrison of Cenarion Fortress in front of her. The latter did not dare to take a breath under her sharp gaze.
At this moment, a night elf soldier suddenly stood up.
"I, I think I can guess some."
"Guess?"
"Yes."
Facing Shandris Yuyue's eyes, the soldier was very nervous and swallowed a mouthful of saliva.
"When I was in the Eastern Kingdom, I learned about the elimination of the Forsaken..."
"So?"
Hearing this answer, Shandis Yuyue was a little disappointed. The annihilation of the Forsaken is naturally a big deal, and even the isolated night elves will certainly hear about it.
"I have heard that when the Forsaken were eliminated, dozens of pillars of fire appeared in the sky..."
"Is there such a thing?"
Hearing this, Shandis Yuyue's expression changed slightly.
"You mean, the force that wiped out the Forsaken is the same force that wiped out the Ahn'Qiraj bugs?"
"I, that's what I think..."
"………………"
After hearing the soldier's answer, Shandis fell into silence. She stared at the big pit in front of her and thought for a moment, then turned around.
"I need to report this matter up. Maybe we need to go to the Eastern Kingdom."
