Due to unexpected emergencies, Sarlayan changed his original slightly lukewarm plan and decided to set off tomorrow morning.
Jaina, the young princess of Kul Tiras, is also expected to leave Silvermoon City and return to Boralus tomorrow... or rather this morning. She will spend some time with her parents and younger brother in her hometown before heading to Dalaran to continue her studies.
She originally planned to go to Unicorn Town to say goodbye to Sharlayan, but her plan couldn't keep up with the change.
At 6 o'clock in the morning, Sarlayan, who had not slept all night, took the initiative to visit the Kul Tiras Embassy in the embassy district.
Jaina packed a lot of luggage yesterday, went to bed late, and hasn't gotten up yet.
Dai Lin, who has always been diligent, has already picked up the naval sword and wielded it in the courtyard for exercise.
Upon learning that Sarlayan and others were visiting, Dailin unexpectedly opened the door to welcome the guests. He learned about the recent changes in the situation from Sarlayan and received the latest commission from him on behalf of Kael'thas.
"Use icebreakers to transport troops? Yes, but I need some time to deploy the ships."
Sarlayan nodded: "Your Majesty Daelin, how long will it take?"
"Um……"
Dai Lin habitually stroked the raised beard on one side of his upper lip and calculated in his mind.
"If you are really in a hurry, I can arrange a few idle ships within half a month and wait until another batch of icebreaker ships that go out to sea for business come back before continuing the transportation."
"Okay, that's it."
Sharlayan sighed softly: "Time waits for no time. We must build the defense network of Crystalsong Forest before there is unrest in Northrend."
Dai Lin asked in confusion: "The force that caused the abnormal phenomenon in Icecrown Glacier is very dangerous? Why do you feel like you are facing a formidable enemy?"
Sarlayan scratched his head and sorted out his words: "Danger... It's not considered dangerous at this stage, but disgusting is real."
"If we don't contain them in advance and let those who manipulate undead creatures snowball in Northrend, we will be in real trouble."
The strength of the Undead Legion has never been their individual combat power, but their ability to snowball as they fight more and more.
As long as they cannot cause devastating damage to the undead army at once, they can raise another army from the battlefield after the battle.
In terms of consumption, the high elves who take the elite route due to population problems will definitely not be able to defeat the undead.
In this case, various defensive fortifications that arm themselves like hedgehogs are indispensable, so as to reduce human losses as much as possible and weaken the enemy's ability to replenish troops.
With the assistance of arcane golems, the high elves can build fortifications very quickly.
However, driving the arcane golem requires continuous consumption of magic power. It is impossible for the high elves far away in Northrend to use the sunwell water to replenish energy for a long time, which is too inefficient.
Fortunately, with the help of the green dragon and the druid, Sass'ala, the tree of life that supports the entire Eversong Forest, is directly connected to the network of the Emerald Dream, and Sass'ala has a symbiotic relationship with the Sunwell.
Theoretically, as long as the giant rune tree that Staghelm planted in Crystalsong Forest could be modified, it should be possible to establish a connection with the Sunwell across the ocean through Sath'ara.
When discussing this matter with Julian and others last night, Sarlayan wanted to complain.
This style of planting trees wherever they go is similar to that of the night elves... although the purpose of planting trees is completely different.
Needless to say, Fandral Staghelm, who planted them himself, was the most suitable person to transform the giant rune trees.
Originally, Staghelm planned to leave for the return journey with other representatives today, but Sharlayan asked Kael'thas to send someone to send a message and keep him temporarily.
After negotiating with Daelin here, Sharlayan still has to go to the night elf embassy next door to discuss cooperation between the two races with Staghelm on behalf of the Sun King.
Having never seen it with his own eyes, Daelin was still a little skeptical about the dangers of the undead army that Sarlayan said.
But no matter what, this is a request from an ally, and with a generous reward, Dai Lin will naturally handle this commission beautifully.
"Dong dong dong~"
The maid in the embassy had already woken Gianna up from her sleep, and the sound of the little princess hurriedly changing clothes upstairs could be heard even downstairs.
"Uh~"
Dai Lin's expression was a little awkward: "This girl... doesn't even care about her own family that much."
Sarlayan shook his head and laughed: "It is precisely because you are one of my own family and we are so familiar with each other that you don't have to worry about dressing up. This is a sign of your close relationship."
"That's right..."
Dailin looked Sarlayan up and down with a scrutinizing gaze inexplicably, and the strange look in his eyes made him feel uncomfortable all over.
"……What's wrong?"
"nothing."
Daelin aroused Sarlayan's curiosity, but he didn't say the last part of the sentence.
【nmd! Are there also broken dogs here? 】
[What on earth did the pangolin say? 】
Ten minutes later, Gianna, who had finished taking care of herself, hurriedly picked up her skirt and walked downstairs.
"Brother Sarlayan, why are you here so early?"
Sharlayan smiled and waved to her: "I'm here to say goodbye to you. I will leave for Northrend later."
"Northrend?"
Jaina was stunned for a moment, then a look of surprise appeared on her face.
Recently, Jaina has been living in Unicorn Town to receive the teachings of Stellagosa, and occasionally hears Sharlayan and others talking about Crystalsong Forest.
Although she didn't hear any confidential information, the ice-smart Jaina easily deduced that the high elves planned to occupy the now ownerless Crystalsong Forest and rebuild the ancient elf city of Shandara.
During the two years of studying with Kael'thas, Jaina read a lot about the history of the Highborne in the Great Library.
Moonsong Forest was a territory governed by the High Elves as early as the Dark Night Empire. As the descendants of the High Elves, it was only natural that the High Elves take it back and rebuild it.
Except for the night elves who also inherited part of the legacy of the Dark Night Empire, other races are not qualified to make irresponsible remarks on this matter.
Sharlayan had already secretly revealed the information about Quel'Thalas's plan to rebuild Shandalar to the top night elves through Staghelm's channel.
Perhaps because they are still busy with internal fighting, Malfurion and Tyrande have not expressed their opposition clearly yet.
In this case, Sarlayan simply regarded their attitude as acquiescence and no objection.
"The ruins of an ancient elf city..."
Jaina was obviously moved, but she also knew that she would not be able to find time to go to Northrend in her next plans.
Jaina grabbed Sarlayan's hand and shook it coquettishly: "Brother Sarlayan, if you find the classics left by Shandara in Crystalsong Forest, remember to copy a copy and leave it to me~"
"Ahem!"
Dailin, who was watching from the side, stared at Sarlayan sharply.
Sarlayan smiled bitterly and pulled his hand out of Jaina's grasp without any trace.
"Okay, if you can really find it, I will definitely help you keep an eye on it... although I don't think there will be anything left after so many years."
…
After saying goodbye to Jaina, Sarlayan went to the night elf embassy next door without stopping.
Staghelit is a cheerful and cheerful person. Although sometimes this temper can get him into trouble, this is also the charm of his personality.
It is precisely because of Staghelm's character that so many druids who advocate changing the status quo are willing to follow him.
For those who know that he recognizes them, as long as they have the ability to achieve it, Staghelm can be said to be able to respond to their requests.
"Crystal Song Forest? Rune Giant Tree?"
After learning of Sarlayan's purpose, Staghelm's face showed a look of reminiscence, and it took a few seconds for him to show a look of surprise.
"I remembered, this is indeed the case, because Andrassil... Tsk! Forget it, let's not talk about it for now."
The fact that Andrassil was cut down was a pain that Staghelm would never forget in his life. He only regretted that he had not been rigorous enough in doing things and had not considered everything thoroughly.
Sarlayan patted Staghelm's thick arm in understanding... He actually wanted to pat his shoulder, but the height was not high enough, and it always felt a little funny to stand on tiptoes.
"Don't take it too seriously. There are so many perfect things in this world."
"The Saronite iron ore is essentially the 'eye' through which the ancient gods peer into the world."
"If the expansion of those mineral veins cannot be curbed in the shortest time, the entire world will be under the surveillance of the ancient gods."
"Andrassil has completed his mission very well. Although it has left a lot of trouble, it is not without gain."
Deer Helmet sighed: "I know, maybe it's because people are getting old, and they always think about those years unconsciously over the years."
"If we had been more cautious at the time, could we have had the best of both worlds, blocking the spread of the veins while preventing Andrassil's roots from overgrowing, and preventing Yogg-Saron from invading the Emerald Dream."
"Pop!"
Staghelit patted his cheek heavily: "Forget it! There's no point in dwelling on the past! We should focus more on the future."
"Don't worry, I will contact the instructor as soon as possible."
"Sundala City is, after all, one of the ancient cities of the night elves. The reconstruction should be approved by him. Just wait for my good news."
