Chapter 1283: Can the Archmage do it? (hungry, tired, hot, sleepy, cat)
The reason why the ether dragon larvae attacked Deathwing was not because it was interested in the continent of Azeroth or the battle between good and evil, but for a simpler reason.
As mentioned before, the ether dragon grows by devouring star energy, and when Deathwing appeared again, it happened to appear in the eyes of the ether dragon larvae. To the ether dragon larvae, this thing with fire and light all over its body seems very similar to the food it eats!
I wonder if it tastes good?
Adhering to the instinct of taking a bite out of curiosity, the ether dragon larvae bit into Deathwing.
Then there is no more.
This is a complete dimensionality reduction attack. In the final analysis, Deathwing is just a giant dragon that dominates the planet. How can it be compared with the ether dragon that shuttles freely in the universe.
Thus, a crisis that might have brought serious disaster to Azeroth was resolved - well, or it still brought disaster. At least Kalimdor was severely harmed by Deathwing. Most of the night elves' territory was flooded and burned by fire, leaving little good land.
As for the tribe, they suffered heavy losses. The Barrens was shaken to its original state, Orgrimmar was also in flames, and the Tauren's Thunder Bluff was also trembling in the shadow of Deathwing.
But this has nothing to do with the Eastern Kingdom, right?
When Duanmu Huai returned, he didn't even take the news seriously when he heard it from the girls. In his opinion, if you eat a black dragon, you can eat it. If it doesn't taste good, don't eat it. You just shouldn't leave food residues everywhere. Throw it... Of course, there is no trash can that the Ether Dragon can use.
With the destruction of Outland and the complete destruction of the Dark Portal, the troubles encountered in the continent of Azeroth have come to an end. Duanmuhuai also told Varian and others on the way back that the mission of the Tribunal basically ends here. You can solve the minor troubles yourself. In the future, don't call me unless there is a crisis that reaches the level of human destruction.
Varian also had certain expectations that the Inquisition would not stay in Azeroth for a long time. Although he was somewhat disappointed, he could understand it.
In fact, as local aborigines, they did not intend to rely on the Tribunal to make a living. Varian and Mekkatorque have already agreed that when they return, the two parties will work together with the dwarves to develop mechanical engineering technology.
To say that the technology of the Tribunal shocked them the most, it was not the power of Duanmuhuai itself, but the giant ships and cannons of the Tribunal. After learning that it only required human hands to control it, Varian immediately became more alert.
It is not easy for humans to gain a foothold in Azeroth. They have been working hard to study magic in the past, but it turns out that this alone is not enough. Because in terms of magic, both high elves and dragons are much stronger than humans. Even if there are a few geniuses occasionally, humans are still not as easy to operate as machines.
Not to mention that all mages like to seek death. Once the situation gets out of control, the impact will be incalculable.
Whatever you're looking at, it's you, Medivh!
In the past, humans did not specifically develop mechanical engineering technology because they could not imagine what mechanical engineering would become in the end. On the contrary, magic is more intuitive. At least everyone can see how powerful the mage's instant pyrotechnics are.
But now, the appearance of the Tribunal has allowed them to witness a future path of mechanical engineering. This power is no worse than magic, and it is easier to control!
Although everyone also knows that it takes a lot of time to reach the level of the Tribunal, but at least this is not an illusory dream, but a reality that already exists. Therefore, as long as they work hard in this direction, one day they will be able to reach the heights of the Tribunal!
Varian has decided to take out some of the mechas for research and imitation when he returns. During the evacuation of the expeditionary force in the outer domain, these "logging" mechas indeed showed strong combat effectiveness. Not only that, Varian also discovered that these mechas were indeed as Duanmuhuai said, and they performed well even in the field of people's livelihood.
There are people in the Kingdom of Storm who are rich, the dwarves have the skills, and the dwarves are also very accomplished in metal smelting. If the three parties join forces and work together in this direction, they will definitely produce results.
Now Varian also wants to understand that following the high elves and dragons to learn magic is ultimately just a younger brother who picks up on others, and the fate of mankind cannot always be pinned on one or two geniuses who have the possibility of convulsions and seizures. On the mage.
Only machinery! Only steel can allow humans to overtake others and become the true ruler of Azeroth!
Can the Archmage do it?
Duanmuhuai naturally expressed his support for this. In the final analysis, humans still have to rely on themselves. Now it seems that Varian is not as cowardly as he originally thought.
In fact, Sal didn't know that Duanmu Huai never thought of wiping out the tribe from the beginning. He planned to keep the tribe as a whetstone for mankind. After all, the conflict between the two sides is limited to one planet, and the danger is controllable. Unlike the Galactic Empire where there are all interstellar civilizations, it will be very troublesome if you don’t kill them...
Besides, there’s still the Inquisition in the end.
Currently, many people have come to the Tribunal stronghold located in Tirisfal Glades and want to train here to become guardians of mankind. Most of them were humans, with a few draenei as well. As for the matter here, Duanmu Huai left it to the night guard to handle. After confirming that there was no problem, he patted his butt and prepared to leave.
It was originally an ordinary traffic accident in space, but it turned out to be involved in so many things, which also surprised Duanmu Huai.
However, just when Duanmuhuai set off again and planned to return to the headquarters, an unexpected person appeared.
"That...Uncle? Do you have time now?"
"Mio?"
Duanmuhuai was somewhat surprised when he saw Mio Naruse walking into her room.
"What's wrong? Are you looking for me? Or is there some trouble in your world again? The God of Disobedience is here to cause trouble again?"
"No, this...that..."
Faced with Duanmu Huai's inquiry, Naruse Mio was obviously hesitant. In the end, Wan Liya pushed from behind.
"Oh, Mio-sama, you are too much of a mother-in-law. Didn't you come to the teacher for help?"
"Ugh, but such a small thing......"
"Okay, okay, what is going on?"
"Something happened to the musical instrument department."
"Persert section?"
It had to be said that Duanmu Huai had never considered this angle. He also understood why Naruse Mio was a little hesitant when he came to find him. After all, Naruse Mio had been following Duanmu Huai for a while, and he was concerned about the trial court and Duanmu Huai. The situation can be considered somewhat understood. In her opinion, the troubles of a mere musical instrument department do not seem to require Duanmu Huai's attention.
"Come, tell me, what is it?"
After all, it was a club that he rarely gave guidance to as a teacher (does it count as guidance?). Duanmu Huai was idle now, so he used a trace of his divine power to tease the ether dragon outside and asked curiously. Naruse Mio was still a little hard to explain, but in the end Maria answered the conversation, and her chattering counterpart Duan Muhuai explained the cause and effect.
Duanmuhuai left school when he was in the second grade. This year, Kumiko and the others also entered the third grade. Naturally, their goal for the bass part is to win the gold medal in the national competition. Originally this was nothing, but this year there were a lot of problems.
First of all, Rina Kosaka is very strict with the training of freshmen. Of course, Duanmu Huai was there in the first two years, and the training was equally strict. But the problem is that Rina Kosaka is not Duanmu Huai after all. Without his aura, she can't suppress people. After a long time, the new students felt tired and depressed. Fortunately, Kumiko took action in time to comfort these new students.
However, they did not realize at the time that this would pave the way for subsequent conflicts.
"The problem is that this year there is a transfer student named Mayu Kuroe, and she also plays the euphonium."
"Oh? Do you play well?"
"Wan Lia doesn't know very well, but it should be good."
"Oh, so this time it's a battle between bass trumpeters."
Duanmuhuai immediately understood what the problem was. He still remembered that a similar thing happened in the performance department in his first year as a consultant. At that time, Reina Kosaka and Furu Kaori Nakasai competed for the trumpet solo. Reina Kosaka's strength Strong, and Nakasai Kokaori was quite popular among the classmates. At that time, many senior students supported Nakasai Kokaori. Later, Duanmuhuai asked the two sides to compete to determine the winner, and then he chose Takasaka Rina. Do a trumpet solo.
So now... history is reincarnating again?
However, according to Marija, unlike Kousaka Reina at that time, the strength gap between Kumiko Kumiko and Mayu Kuroe was not actually big enough for everyone to recognize, so a problem arose.
Taki chose to let Mayu Kuroe play the solo, but first the other members of the same class as Kumiko Komae quit.
As the saying goes, one of the four irons in life is to carry a gun together.
During the summer vacation of their second grade, students in Kumiko Kumiko's class were transported to a different world, where they fought angels and demons. The friendship between everyone fighting side by side was naturally very deep. Not to mention that in that world, Kumiko's vocation was to be a brave man, and she was responsible for leading everyone, so her reputation and status in the hearts of everyone was very high.
Therefore, in the eyes of these people, Huangzen Kumiko is currently in the third grade and is a minister. It is her turn to perform the bass solo. When the time comes, Huangzen Kumiko successfully wins the national gold medal as a minister solo, which can be regarded as a picture of her high school life. The next perfect ending, everyone is very supportive.
Of course, even if ordinary students have objections to their teachers, they will only murmur in private. But who are the people in Kumiko’s class? They’ve fought against angels and demons. They’ve gone through hundreds of battles, so what kind of experience do they have? Why are they still afraid of you, a sweet-faced consultant from the music department?
So I attacked him directly.
Taki obviously did not expect that the students from the instrumental music department, who had always been sensible and obedient, would openly oppose his decision, and he was unable to step down for a while. And Rina Kosaka, a Taki fan, was not happy and started quarreling with others on the spot.
"As a result, the atmosphere is very bad now?"
"Very bad."
Maria spread her hands helplessly. In the eyes of others, Reina Kosaka, as a relative and friend of Kumiko Kumiko Komae, had fought with them, and she should have been on the same front with them. In the end, the other party turned out to be a traitor. I know you like Taki, but you can't forget your friends.
There were a few who were impatient and even wanted to have a private duel with Reina Kosaka - luckily they were stopped by Kumiko Huangzen.
This is not a fight between children. If a fight breaks out, there's no telling what it will be like.
As the senior class started, the junior class couldn't bear it anymore. Originally, they were about to quit the club because of Rena Kosaka's intense guidance, but it was Kumiko Huangmae who calmed them down. As a result, Kumiko Huangzen, who is now kind to them, can't even be selected for the solo? How does this work?
The senior students have come out to criticize the counselors, so of course their junior students can’t lag behind either!
If this continues, let alone the gold medal, the music club may be disbanded before the finals of the national competition.
"This is not possible."
After listening to Wan Liya's story, Duanmu Huai shook his head.
"If this continues, won't everyone be able to go to Antarctica this year? What the hell are they doing?"
"Hey? Uncle, you still remember this."
Hearing Duanmu Huai's emotion, Naruse Mio was a little surprised. She still remembered her and others' expedition to Antarctica last year. When Duanmu Huai came back, he told the people in the music department that if he won the gold medal next year, he would take you to Antarctica. But later, due to various reasons, Duanmu Huai, Mary, Naruse Mio and others left the school respectively, thinking that the matter would be over... I didn't expect that Duanmu Huai would still remember it?
"Of course, a trip to Antarctica doesn't cost anything. Although I quit, as a person you have to keep your word."
The money for the Antarctic base came from the accounts of the Tribunal of that world. Although Duanmuhuai didn't care, there was still someone in charge of the accounts.
"What do Kumiko think?"
"She doesn't want to split over this kind of thing, and she doesn't want to exclude Mayu Kuroe from the competition. She is not as committed to soloing as Reina Kousaka, and she even offered to withdraw from the selection... but she was still rejected. Kumiko persuaded. ”
"A good person, she will suffer from others in the future. I remember she plans to enter the court after graduation."
"Ah ha ha ha ha..."
Naruse Mio also smiled bitterly. Many students in the same class at that time decided to work in the Tribunal after graduation to protect their own world. After all, they already know that their world is far from as peaceful as they imagined, and the salary offered by the Inquisition is not low. Of course, some people plan to go to college.
"Okay."
Duanmuhuai clapped his hands and made a decision.
"Anyway, I have nothing to do. It would be nice to go back and see them. After all, I am still waiting to take them to Antarctica."
