Although Sarlayan is relatively slow in terms of emotions, he is not really lacking in emotional intelligence.
Sylvanas' words were not complete, but they were enough for Sharlayan to understand what she meant.
Sharlayan, who sensed the danger, did not answer the call and instead chatted with Sylvanas about the modification of bows and arrows.
The long and short bows used by rangers today are recurve structures with relatively advanced concepts, and there are not many areas worthy of improvement.
Sarlayan proposed the concept of a compound bow to Sylvanas, using a complex mechanical pulley set to save labor and allow beginners to use larger bows.
With the level of craftsmanship in Quel'Thalas, it is not difficult to make a composite bow. What is difficult is how to convert something that requires careful craftsmanship into mass production.
"Compound bow..."
Sylvanas said thoughtfully: "In fact, there is no need for large-scale mass production. According to your statement, this kind of exquisitely constructed compound bow is too expensive and not suitable for rangers who travel through the jungle all year round. Loading up in large numbers.”
"The best market for compound bows is not the military, but the upper class who have hunting needs."
Sarlayan lowered his head and thought for a moment: "You are better than me when it comes to equipment requirements. Since you said so, let's not consider mass production of compound bows for the time being."
Sylvanas showed a rare mischievous look and winked at Sharlayan with her left eye: "Remember to customize a compound bow for me. I want the green one."
"Huh? Oh, no problem."
Although he didn't know why a master of archery like Sylvanas wanted a composite bow, Sharlayan agreed to her request.
With her doubts resolved, Sylvanas bid farewell to Sharlayan in a relaxed manner and returned alone to the guest room Valeera had arranged for her.
Coming to Las Vegas?
The poor boy is still blowing the wind on the rooftop. I'm afraid he will have to spend the night on the roof.
Early the next morning, Sylvanas grabbed Lylas' long ears and teleported to Silvermoon City.
On the one hand, she wanted to discuss the installation of new weapons with Defense Minister Leleza. On the other hand... she wanted to discuss quality education in Lalas with her mother.
Lalas was blowing the night wind on the rooftop all night. Quel'Thalas, which is like spring all year round, is not so easy to catch a cold, but before he left, he still looked messy in the wind.
When I think that my mother will soon know about my feat of shopping in Ozi, I feel a little hopeless in Las Vegas.
"Hey~"
After seeing off the Windrunner siblings, Sarlayan rubbed his brows in confusion.
"Lalas was most likely led astray by Halduron and Lor'themar. Those two sluts just like to hang out when they have nothing to do."
"With Elis' family background and potential, what kind of woman can't be found? Why bother?"
"Haha~"
Wali Lala, who was standing aside, joked with a smile: "Maybe he wants to find something new? You don't envy their 'chic' too, do you?"
Sarlayan rolled his eyes: "Do you think I have that free time?"
"Let's go, today I have to go beat those sand withered nobles who can't turn their heads around."
"I hope my uncle can send back good news from across the sea as soon as possible."
…
Just as Sharlayan and Lelessa predicted, due to Terenas' sudden illness, Prince Arthas, who was overseeing the country, became emotionally troubled by Quel'Thalas.
Lordaeron's plan to annex the Kingdom of Stromgard failed.
We have received a large amount of material reinforcements from Gilneas, Kul Tiras, Quel'Thalas, Dalaran and other countries, and we no longer have the troublemaker Djarin.
The united Stromgard Regency Council led its troops to defeat the ogres and trolls guarding the periphery of the super thunderstorm, and re-entered the capital that belonged to them.
Under the pressure of powerful external forces, the Syndicate, Stonefist Ogres and Deadwood Trolls, who originally fought independently, actually reached a temporary agreement to jointly resist Stromgard's attack.
The two sides are now engaged in a tug-of-war in Stromgarde City.
According to the predictions of the Defense Staff of Quel'Thalas, the outcome of the Battle of Stromgarde will not be determined for at least half a year.
Saidan Dathrohan, who was stationed in Tarren Mill, wanted to lead his army south many times, but every time there was a slight movement, the Gilnean army guarding the western border of Hillsbrad Foothills would follow suit.
Dathrohan did not dare to rush forward rashly and risk being attacked from both sides, and all inquiries he sent to the Royal City of Lordaeron were met with silence.
Over time, Dathrohan became too lazy to bother, and simply stayed put in Tarren Mill. He took the paladins of the Silver Hand into the Alterac Snow Mountains to hunt snow monsters every day, as if he was helping Tarren Mill to eliminate potential threats.
The Royal City of Lordaeron has not been peaceful recently. Prince Arthas issued bizarre orders based on his personal preferences, which finally annoyed Lordaeron officials headed by the Prime Minister. The people of Lordaeron were also very dissatisfied with the prince's wanton actions.
Alsace was indeed young and vigorous, but he was not stupid.
Realizing that he had provoked public anger due to jealousy of the orders issued by his superiors, he suppressed his displeasure and restrained his temper, and took the initiative to express to the civil servants that he would humbly accept advice, which finally temporarily calmed the dissatisfaction and anger of officials and the people.
However, both sides knew that the struggle for power between the royal family and the courtiers would not end here. Alsace just chose to give in temporarily due to public anger, and there would be more to do in the future.
After Arthas took the initiative to back down, the tense atmosphere between Lordaeron and Quel'Thalas was temporarily eased, and the East China Sea Fleet did not jump out to cause trouble again.
Just as the situation in Lordaeron was gradually calming down, Valeera brought Sharlayan the latest news.
Terenas finally woke up after falling ill.
Terenas is no longer young, and this sudden illness has put a considerable burden on his body.
According to intelligence agents, Terenas's energy will be greatly reduced even if he recovers from his illness.
Things seemed to be developing just as the intelligence agency said.
When the time came to the spring of the 12th year of the Dark Portal, Terenas, who had just recovered from a serious illness, did not urgently order Dathrohan to march, but instead asked them to withdraw to the Royal City of Lordaeron.
"a wise decision."
In the office of the Lord's Mansion in Unicorn Town, Sarlayan calmly analyzed: "The opportunity to fight has been lost. A forced march will only expose Lordaeron to enemies on both sides, and the gains outweigh the losses."
After months of tug-of-war, the forces of the Stromgard Regency Council gradually gained the upper hand.
The ogres, who were good at adapting to the situation, began to work hard, and the deadwood trolls seemed to have the intention to retreat. Only the Syndicate was still unwilling to give up the Stromgarde that they had finally obtained.
"it's time."
In the past half year, Sarlayan has been handling various complicated affairs in the southern part of the forest at home, and once again convinced those unwilling nobles.
The Backlight Blade thieves sent by Verlais returned news from Kalimdor. They did not find anyone suspected of Aegwynn in Dustwallow Swamp. Instead, they found a very mysterious human witch on the outskirts of Ratchet City.
According to the witch herself, she came by boat from Booty Bay, but Gazlowe, the Lord of Ratchet City, said that he had never seen her.
Having been engaged in intelligence work all his life, Welles instinctively felt that there was something wrong with this witch.
In order to avoid alerting the enemy, the Backlight Blade did not further provoke the reclusive witch, but hid near Ratchet City to closely monitor her every move, while continuing to search for clues about Aegwynn in Dustwallow Marsh.
Reforms in Quel'Thalas are progressing fairly smoothly.
Education reform is advancing in depth. The first batch of students have entered various junior colleges to learn basic knowledge and are expected to graduate within two years.
That's when Kael'thastu will be revealed.
The enrollment of intermediate and advanced colleges will really touch the core interests of the aristocracy, and some troubles may arise at that time.
All three batches of 18 sub-class warships sold by Kul Tiras to Quel'Thalas have been delivered.
Quel'Thalas is not yet a naval power, but it finally has some ability to protect itself before the construction of its large sailing ship is completed.
Admiral Berryman is using these 18 warships to train frantically to prepare for the future of Quel'Thalas Navy.
The turmoil caused by the reform in the country had temporarily subsided. Before the next round of turmoil came, Sarlayan finally took the time to prepare to personally go to Steinblade to find the whereabouts of Merry Winterwind and the information left by Thoradin. Mystery.
In addition, there is an extremely important meeting that requires Sarlayan to participate in person on behalf of the Sun King.
"Those who want to go raise their hands and I will choose at my discretion."
"Uh-huh!"
In fact, what Sarlayan said was nonsense. Everyone in the family raised their hands one after another. Little Tina had the most positive attitude and Onyxia was the laziest.
"Uh~"
Sarlayan thought about it and ordered Tina first. After thinking about cooperation, he decided to bring Valeera with him.
"Tsk~ It's really none of my business, let's go~"
Onyxia had long expected this outcome, and walked out of the conference hall with a carefree wave, continuing to enjoy life in the town.
Stellagosa sighed softly and did not show too much disappointment. After all, someone had to stay and guard the house.
"Well, I wish you all the best. I will stay at home to coordinate intelligence from all aspects, and will send notes to Tina every day."
Tina Gosa climbed onto Sharlayan's shoulders with some excitement, swung her short legs and opened the portal to Dalaran.
"Let's go! Stella guards the house, she deserves it!"
Stellagosa, who was originally in a peaceful state of mind, suddenly felt her blood pressure rising.
