War Hymn of Warcraft [WOW] - Chapter 98

“What?! Jaina’s fleet is gone!” Arthas suddenly got up from his seat.

Baine and Kael’thas hurriedly pulled him from the side, lest Alsace violently hurt others.

“Calm down, Arthas!” Bane said, “We are all surprised that Jaina’s fleet disappeared, and there is nothing you can do if you are in a hurry.”

Arthas shook off Baine and Kane who grabbed his hand, and paced back and forth in the hall where the chiefs were meeting. His brows were tightly furrowed, and countless guesses could not help flashing through his mind.

“How do you tell me to calm down, I and you forced Jaina away from Kalimdor! If something happens to Jaina, I…”

Having said that, Alsace suddenly closed his mouth and took several deep breaths to calm down his restless heart.

“Forget it, it’s useless to talk about it now.” Alsace said, walking to the map in the Hall of the Chiefs, looking at Jaina’s original route marked on the map, “She walked from the south of the maelstrom , the North will do great damage to the water element she summoned, and at the same time, there is not so much time to install icebreakers and heat preservation devices on the ship…”

Alsace’s finger started from Theramore, tracing down the channel little by little: “The two of us talked on the phone the day before yesterday, and according to what she said, we can already see the dark clouds of the maelstrom…”

Above the maelstrom is the projection of the wall of the sky, so the dark clouds linger all year round. However, due to the small plane of the four elements, the projection of the sky wall is not large. Arthas quickly took a pen and drew the area covered by the cloudy sky wall.

“In this case, Jaina’s original schedule today should be in the south of the maelstrom, and the eastern kingdom of Stormwind City reported the loss of Jaina’s fleet today… I think I know where Jaina is now.” Garrosh finally stood up from the chieftain’s seat, and crossed directly south of the Maelstrom with a red marker.

“According to the sea chart of the Proudmoore family that Jaina brought back, there should be nothing there?” Arthas glanced at Garrosh, a little unfriendly. After all, Garrosh was responsible for the fall of Theramore. If he hadn’t proposed it, Jaina would not have left Kalimdor in such a hurry.

Garrosh didn’t say anything. He also knew that Arthas had some prejudice against him now, so he turned to Kael’thas and asked, “As a former night elf nobleman, the blood elves must have heard of pandaren, right?”

“That’s right, such a race is indeed recorded in our royal family’s books.” Kael’thas nodded, “It is said that the Pandaren are ancient allies of the night elves, and the relationship between the two races has been going on since before the big bang. It has already begun. Panda people are generally known for their tranquility and peace. They are addicted to alcohol and are good at a skill called ‘Kung Fu’. They once got rid of a race called ‘Mogu’ and Zandalari trolls with the night elves. ruled and established the most glorious civilization in the Pangea. However, the pandaren family gradually disappeared in the later period, and after the big bang, the wise and peaceful race of the pandaren was basically invisible.”

For other races in the world of Azeroth, everything about pandaren is a mystery—except for a few words in legends and myths, very few people have actually seen pandaren, let alone deal with them. The history of this noble race can be traced back thousands of years. Before the birth of the oldest human empire, even before the world was divided, the pandaren had already established their own civilization. According to legend, they were the laborers of the brutal mogu warlords. With tenacious resistance, secret diplomacy, and unique unarmed combat techniques, the pandaren set off a successful revolution, ended the rule of the mogu, and established a prosperous pandaren empire for thousands of years.

In recent years, the Panda Brewmaster who has appeared in the tribe, Chen Stormstout is a member of the Pandaren. However, during the war, the tribe did not collect information about their race. After the war, Chen Stormstout traveled around the world and disappeared, and no one could find any traces of the Pandaren.

“According to the information I have learned, the pandaren lost contact with the night elves in the later stage because their last emperor Shaohao predicted the big explosion in ancient Kalimdor.” Garrosh said, directing the people behind him The soldiers put a mask of ancient Kalimdor on the map in front of them.

Ancient Kalimdor is five or six times larger than the combined area of ​​all the continents of Azeroth today, showing a trend of being narrower in the north-south direction and wider in the east-west direction. Among them, the continent on the west side is the most different from what it is now. The original large area of ​​land should have sunk to the bottom of the maelstrom, leaving only Mount Hyjal in the midwest and a few nearby plains to form the current Kalimdor; It is the current Eastern Kingdom, and there are only sporadic land left; Northrend on the north side is smaller, and it has shrunk several times due to the explosion of the Well of Eternity.

“Look, from the ancient map of Kalimdor, it can be seen that the Well of Eternity was located in the center and northwest of Kalimdor. The continents on the east, west, and north sides formed the current Kalimdor. Do, the Eastern Kingdoms, Northrend. Don’t you find it strange that there are no continents left to its south?”

“The south side? Back then, the south side of the mainland was where the pandaren empire Pandaria was located. I still remember that it was written in the ancient books that there was an ancient **** who completely fell there and polluted the land there. Any violent emotions will cause A strange creature called ‘sha’ was born, and only pandaren, a race that symbolizes peace and nature, can live carefree in that land.” Kael’thas interjected, “Could it be, pandaren What special method was used to hide it? But after the explosion of the Well of Eternity, our Sunstrider family also tried to contact the Pandaren, but we did not find any relevant traces on the south side of the maelstrom.”

“This is how their last emperor Shaohao handled it. He predicted Kalimdor’s big explosion, so relying on his own strength, together with a few demigods in the local area, the entire Pandaria was removed from Kalimdor’s territory. Separated.” Garrosh said, drawing a circle from ancient Kalimdor, and made an arrow pointing south, “Pandaria is shrouded in mist, almost no different from the scenery of the endless sea, Everyone who went there thought they had reached the Endless Sea, so naturally they did not dare to continue heading south. That layer of fog also has the effect of blocking communication, and I think that is why Jaina is completely unable to contact her now.”

Garrosh was once inspired by the spirits of the ancestors. Since the world collapsed 10,000 years ago, the ancient Pandaria has been surrounded by thick fog and has never been disturbed by the chaotic wars of the world. There, dense forests and cloud-shrouded peaks support unique and diverse species. The magical Pandaren have lived on Pandaria for generations. Even under the siege of ancient enemies, they still lead a contented life.

“So, Jaina should be in that area now?” Alsace lowered his head and thought for a moment, frowning, still uneasy, “But it doesn’t make sense, Jaina is not the only one on the fleet. If it is The expedition fleet led by Jaina might explore around out of curiosity, but that fleet is an immigrant ship…”

“Do you still remember the cloak that Zhan Zhixing gave Jaina? It is the same legendary cloak as the one behind me, and it has the Heartfire Yu’lon’s Breath that is blessed by the demigod.” Garrosh returned to his seat, Qianying Niuzao Zhiren behind him fluctuated up and down with his movements.

“How can I not remember, that thing saved Jaina’s life. Wait, you mean, among the demigods who helped the emperor named Shaohao move Pandaria away, there was a demigod called ‘Yulong’ demigod?” Hearing Garrosh’s words, Arthas suddenly realized. When the fleet brought a group of civilians, Jaina really didn’t dare to act rashly. But if she meets her former savior, and knows that there is a continent to the south that can be adjusted slightly, Jaina will definitely choose to rest in Pandaria first.

Garrosh nodded: “Zhan Zhixing once told me that these cloaks of his all came from a place called Pandaria. Presumably Jaina must have received the demigod force field from the south when she was sailing on the south side. Run into the mist rashly. However, I will still communicate with the Alliance side. It just so happens that Teldrassil is on the way to the Eastern Kingdoms, so let the night elves turn around and take a look there. In addition, I will also send A fleet, led by me personally, went to the south side to find out.”

Garrosh’s move was well thought out, and Pandaria will be opened immediately. As Kalimdor, who was predicted by the spirit of the ancestors as “a land surrounded by stars and a land where ancient gods ravage”, his fate line has been changed. He must not stay here . Taking a fleet to Pandaria in person can not only avoid the crisis here in time, but also restore part of Alsace’s resentment.

Sure enough, when he heard that Garrosh was going to lead the team there to find Jaina in person, the expression on Arthas’s face eased a lot, and his tone was not as stiff as before: “That’s it, I’ll go back to Nuo Sunder is waiting for the good news.”

“It’s time for me to continue looking for Vashj’s traces. Some time ago, I got a tip that she had appeared in the north of the maelstrom. I guess I will be able to catch her soon!” Kael’thas’s face was full of excitement, that The person who caused Sylvanas’ death could finally be caught by him.

“Okay, that’s the end of this summit. Arthas, Kael’thas, you two had better not come to Kalimdor recently. Bane, you should also tell Kane when you go back, and let him stay in Thunderclap Cliff, don’t go out.” Garrosh hesitated for a moment, but still warned the next few people, “I can’t say the specific reason, anyway, the spirit of the ancestors gave me a revelation, Kalimdor will be in some trouble recently.”
