Menethil's Power

Chapter 230 Tyr's Guards
The woods below receded rapidly, and soon you could see that it was no longer a green canopy, but a large area of ​​wheat fields, windmills and mills.The flying snow wings sway from side to side at a slow speed, and the posture is extremely graceful.

Landing in the griffin cage behind the palace, he took the reins from Snow Wing and gave it to the griffin administrator. Isaacs habitually looked up, but he didn't see the agate dragon.

"Where's Su Ren?" Isaacs called to the Gryphon Master Modris.

"I was ridden away by that stinky-faced black-and-white bear man a few days ago, and he said he had your permission." Modris replied.

Isaacs nodded slightly. He did tell Yuan before that if he needed a flying mount, he could just ride Sunren. After all, it is difficult for an ordinary griffin to carry an adult pandaren for a long-distance journey.

As the pandaren ambassador of the Wandering Isle to Lordaeron, Yuan Ji has been very low-key for more than a year. Part of the reason for his hasty departure at this time is Isaacs' order, and his destination is also very clear, that is, the Lost Isles.The old friend of the panda people has arrived there, but he can't communicate effectively with those humans and goblins, and needs his assistance.

The vitality of the big turtle seems to be too strong. It took only one year for such a serious injury to heal. Isaacs really didn't estimate it, so most of it only existed in his mind before. The plan can only be started in advance.

When I was living on the Wandering Isle, Isaacs had a crazy idea. Since Shen-zinko can bear the homes of tens of thousands of pandaren, what would happen if it was used as a mobile combat platform?
This crazy idea was just a flash of inspiration, but now that the surface of the Wandering Isle has completely collapsed, and the pandaren have joined the alliance as a whole, it is already possible to realize it!

think about it!A battle fort the size of an island!Can carry thousands of artillery!For at least a five-figure air force to take off and land!It can transport at least ten legions' military supplies for a whole year!It will be the absolute overlord of the endless sea. Whether it is an expedition to Kalimdor, Northrend, Pandaria or Zandalar, it will be the most solid guarantee for the expeditionary force of Lordaeron!
Isaacs even thought about letting those dwarves and goblin tech geeks develop an over-the-horizon weapon similar to an intercontinental ballistic missile, which would be mounted on Shen-zinko's back and directly blast the Icecrown Glacier from the Northrend coastline...

The idea is indeed good, but it is not an easy task for Shen-zinko to have such a terrifying strategic ability. Its own security is very problematic. You must know that this giant turtle has a huge body, but its actual combat power is not. Very scum, the hardness of the turtle's shell is average, and the magic resistance is almost zero, otherwise it would not be harmed by an ancient god parasite and almost burp.

First of all, if it is really used as a mobile war fortress, Shen-zinko itself must not be able to fight alone. It should be the absolute core of the air-space fleet that Isaacs envisioned, always under the protection of a large number of sailing and floating ships. Secondly, Shen-zinko's own defense must also be strengthened. A layer of high magic resistance alloy armor is necessary. At the same time, an energy defense matrix of at least the hero level must be constructed, and at least one standard mage group must be stationed.

But here comes the most fundamental problem, money.

Although Blizzard has mastered the cheap and efficient arcane smelting technology, even if the cost of a piece of arcane-plated armor only costs single-digit gold coins, it is an astronomical figure when multiplied by the area of ​​Shen-zinko's back. basic cost...

Not to mention that the research and development of new weapons and the construction of floating warships also require a large amount of money. Isaacs felt that even if Lordaeron's treasury was exhausted, it would not be able to fill this bottomless pit.

Oh, by the way, there is also the problem of Shen-zin Zi’s food. It devours fish and shrimp by itself when wandering in the endless sea, but if it is used as a war fortress, its rations will become the burden of Lordaeron, and such a super giant Sea turtles eat...

Isaacs couldn't help but look up to the sky and sigh. , He originally thought that he should be regarded as one of the best capitalists in Azeroth, but in the end he was still a pauper.

Money and energy are always the hardest truths.

If you take too big a step, you will fall into trouble. The young prince warned himself that arming Shen-zinko is a very long-term plan. At present, this super giant turtle is better used as a super transport ship. It just so happens that Kalimdor is looking for gold. The government decree has initially taken effect, and a large number of rare mineral deposits that are still contaminated with soil have been mined and are waiting to be transported to Lordaeron. Shenzinzi can completely solve the food problem on his own during the journey between the two continents, so that he will not use his appetite to drag down Luo Daeron. Dan Lun.

Having made a decision in his heart, Isaacs waved Modris back, and then walked slowly towards the palace. When he approached the gate, he found that there seemed to be a dispute here.

You must know that this kind of scene is rare. Terenas has been in power for more than 50 years and has won the respect and love of almost all citizens, so it is almost impossible for people to come outside the palace to make trouble.On the one hand, there is really no reason, and on the other hand, it is because the royal guard's knife is not unpleasant.

Isaacs couldn't help but stop, and secretly observed it with great interest.

This is a balding middle-aged man with dark skin and plain attire. He is wearing a half-worn Lordaeron-style full body armor. He looks like a veteran. Isaacs speculates that he may be the sheriff of a remote rural town.

The country sheriff seemed to have a lot of conflicts with the royal guards guarding the gate, "I have something very important to see His Majesty King Terenas." The sheriff said, his voice was hoarse, but his tone was calm and firm. '

Naturally, the royal guards cannot be easily persuaded, "If you want to briefly answer His Majesty the King, then you should get up on the audience day. On that day, the gates of the royal court are open to all Lordaeron citizens. At that time, you should naturally You can see His Majesty the King."

The magistrate took a deep breath, and he seemed to be suppressing some kind of impulse. He looked straight into the eyes of the royal guards, "Listen, young man, you must let me pass, this matter concerns the entire Lordain Road and the safety of the entire world.”

"I think your raising this point of view on the audience day will definitely attract the attention of His Majesty the King." The royal guard replied flatly, obviously he didn't believe it at all.

The sheriff took a deep breath, "Then I'm sorry." He whispered, a surge of holy energy that was as hot as the sun suddenly surged out of his body, and it was about to explode.

"Wait a minute!" Isaacs had almost no time to react, and stopped him immediately. At the same time, the young prince was overwhelmed with surprise. What's going on?Why would a heroic paladin try to break into the palace?It is reasonable to say that he knows all the knights who have reached the hero level, but who is this one who suddenly appeared?

Fortunately, he just ran into this incident, otherwise the incident of a hero-level paladin forcibly breaking into the royal court would definitely cause turmoil in Lordaeron.

The burning holy energy of the middle-aged sheriff stopped fluctuating. He looked at Isaacs, and he returned to his ordinary appearance. It seemed that the hotness before was just an illusion. He could clearly see Ai's sudden respect from the guard's expression. The extraordinary identity of the saxophone.

"I am Isaacs Menethil, the Crown Prince of Lordaeron. If you have any important matters, you can report to me directly."

"Listen, young prince, I must see your father, and he must immediately cease all activities in Tyr's Fall."

Fall of Tyr?Isaacs was taken aback suddenly, "Who are you?" He asked with a frown.

"Tawad."

It wasn't a famous name, and Isaacs wasn't particularly impressed, "You mentioned the Fall of Tyr just now, do you know the meaning of this place?" He looked seriously into the eyes of the middle-aged paladin.

"I'm from the Guards of Tyre." Tawad said in a very calm tone.

Tyr Guard, the name of this organization is enough to explain the meaning of its existence. This organization may be the oldest organization in human history, long before the flesh-and-blood Vrykul who migrated south and settled in Tirisfal evolved into the first humans. This organization already existed, composed of loyal guards who volunteered to guard the land where Tyr fell, and it has been passed down to this day.

Isaacs knows what this organization is guarding. In the original timeline, three artifacts will be born in the fall of Tyr, not the Hammer of the Silver Hand, Scamdor Warbreaker and Satara S. Blade of the Dark Empire, these artifacts have amazing power, and even twenty adventurers holding such artifacts can confront the Titan head-on.It seems that these three artifacts are simply in the bag for Lordaeron, because Tyr's Fall is on the border of Tirisfal Glades.

However, Isaacs didn't want these artifacts to be born in advance.

Huge benefits often hide huge dangers. Although artifacts are tempting, the price paid for taking them out is definitely not something Lordaeron can bear. Zakaz, this ancient god's creation that requires Tyr to sacrifice everything to suppress, in fact It has not been completely killed, it has been accumulating strength, and extended its tentacles.

The last person who was ignorant and fearless to explore the secrets of Tyr's Fall was Emperor Thoradin. Even such a great figure had to pay the price for his recklessness. His legendary life ended here. To continue the suppression of Zakaz at the cost of the soul.

Of course, Isaacs did not want Lordaeron to bear such a heavy price. The Fall of Tyr is indeed a huge treasure, but it was definitely not opened easily before Lordaeron's internal and external troubles were resolved. It should be in a The stable environment is revealed, and thousands of preparations have been made before.

Of course, there is another possibility, it may be the last straw when Lordaeron is desperate...

But the reality seemed to be out of control. Isaacs realized that something uncontrollable had happened during his journey to the Hinterlands, "Follow me, Tawad." With a wave of his hand, the royal guards came Automatically get out of the way.The young prince walked quickly through the palace gates.

"You asked us to terminate all activities in Tyre's Fall? Could it be that my father issued some unreasonable orders?" Isaacs asked as he walked.

"The location of Tyr's Fall has always been the most secretive thing. My ancestors and family members and I have been keeping this secret tightly. But I don't know how His Majesty the King learned of everything. He sent thousands of guards to block Tire The surrounding area of ​​Erzhiyun. Your Highness, please persuade him to withdraw his order, otherwise it will be too late when the evil emerges."

"I see." Isaacs nodded solemnly, as if he directly believed this statement, which made Tawad a little surprised. He wanted to reveal some ancient secrets to gain trust.

The wisdom and courage of the young prince seemed extraordinary.

"Valeera!" On the way to the throne room, Isaacs keenly sensed a familiar aura, so he shouted without hesitation.

A slender phantom suddenly appeared in the corridor in front of him, and the female elf thief lifted her stealth status, "What did you encounter this time? It's almost like a civet whose tail was stepped on."

The young prince was obviously not in the mood to chat with her at this time, "What happened to the transfer of the garrison?" He asked directly.

After experiencing the tribal siege, the number of garrison troops in the royal city has tripled, and it is absolutely impossible to mobilize under normal circumstances.

"It's no secret among the Uncrowned to find the origin of human beings and the Sword of the Emperor." Valeera replied casually.

"Where did you get the news?" Isaacs asked.

"Your Explorers' Association." Valeera shrugged, "After you left, they sent news that according to the information deciphered from the Norgannon Disk, the guardian Tyr was found in the territory of Lordaeron." ruins and traces of Thoradin's sword, so your father gave them permission to explore and gave them a lot of help."

The League of Explorers... The Disc of Norgannon... Isaacs suddenly regretted leaving that artifact in the hands of the dwarves. How could he trust the integrity of the Bronzebeard brothers?
They deduced the location of Tyr's Fall from the Norgannon disc, but apparently did not obtain enough information, and probably knew nothing about the status of the ruins, which meant that the result of this exploration must be extremely bad .

"When did the League of Explorers discover the exact location?" Isaacs asked.

"Five days ago." Valeera gave a heart-wrenching answer.

Isaacs stopped immediately. He knew that it was not time to discuss with Terenas, and he had to take immediate action. "Valeera, pass my order to Uther, asking him to immediately gather all the Silver Hand knights and bring all the high-level mages he can find to march towards Tyr's Fall."

Five days had passed, which meant that something bad might have happened. The monster in Fall of Tyr had the power to confront the guardian head-on. Doubting that several thousand garrison troops were not enough to suppress the scene, Isaacs felt that he had to prepare for the worst.

As for himself, he must rush to the scene immediately.
