Stormwind Wizard God-Chapter 587: Fortress Complete

Dark Portal 4, October 16.

This is a big day worth commemorating for the entire Alliance, because this day marks the completion of the reconstruction of Stormwind City, the completion of Nethergarde, which is responsible for monitoring the Dark Portal, and the opening of the railway line connecting Stormwind City and Nethergarde, which is more than 2,000 kilometers long and spans four major regions.

It took only two years to create so many things. Not to mention the manpower and material resources consumed, the entire alliance was shocked by the short time it took.

"This is impossible!?" Terenas almost fell off the throne.

"No way! I just finished building the inner city here!" Thoras, whose hometown was also demolished, looked at his own smaller Stromgarde and smiled bitterly.

What's even funnier is that after Gilneas broke away from the Alliance and went solo without Terenas, King Genn Greymane was like a madman, worried that the Alliance, which has nearly ten kingdoms, would interfere in Gilneas' internal affairs. Since last year, he has abandoned the territory south of Silverpine Forest and started to build the Greymane Wall along the terrain.

What Genn did is a bit like when Emperor Thoradin built the Wall of Thoradin to ensure the safety of Arathi Highlands, but comparing people will make you feel nauseous, and comparing goods will make you throw them away!

Gilneas had just built a wall when it was announced that the two cities were completed at the same time.

Old Genn's face was really slapped and it made a loud slapping sound, and his face was all red.

"This is impossible—how could that kid Duke do this?" Genn cursed on the throne.

"I heard that he boldly used goblins to help, and also brought in many giant arcane golems."

"Goblins? Arcane golems? Duke must be crazy!"

It's no wonder Genn said that. Almost all the intelligent species on the continent have no good feelings towards goblins. These guys who only destroy but not build will make the place a mess wherever they go.

But, it also depends on how you use it.

No matter how unreliable the goblins are, there are a few things in which they are still at the forefront of the world's people.

The first is the Goblin Shredder.

This huge robot, which is as tall as two people, has a terrible fuel engine that makes harsh cracking noises and produces pungent smoke all day long, but the efficiency of the goblin lumberjack is far superior to that of all races. Even the burly and fat-bellied orc laborers cannot compare with these robots with serrated circular saws installed on their arms.

The second is goblin gunpowder.

Don't think that goblins are a group of guys who shout "explosion is art" and are very good at using gunpowder.

Another good use for goblins is to have them blow up mountains.

The ground in Elwynn Forest is mostly flat, and after laying gravel and sleepers, the rails will be very stable. But starting from Redridge Mountains, it is no longer possible. The rugged Redridge Mountains originally only have a narrow goat trail.

In order to allow trains to pass through, the road must be widened.

When Duke recited the mysterious spell that had always been effective against goblins throughout the ages: "Gold coins! Gold coins! I will give you a lot of gold coins", countless goblins, with red eyes, howling loudly, rushed up the mountain carrying bags of explosives.

The continuous explosions could be clearly heard even at the Logging Ground dozens of kilometers away.

The crazy goblins, with the momentum of blowing the rocks and themselves up to the sky, blew the canyon near the triangular intersection into a basin and turned the natural barrier into a thoroughfare within three months!

According to the original agreement, after the completion of the project, Duke would pay more than 15 million gold coins for the mountain blasting. Every leader of the alliance was horrified when he heard this fee.

But an accident happened one night half a month before completion.

For some reason, a piece of news leaked out that the Red Dragon Queen Alexstrasza had helped eliminate a big demon in the Cursed Land not long ago. As a thank you to the Red Dragonflight for agreeing to station a small team of red dragons in the Cursed Land, Duke prepared a cash sum of up to 1 million gold coins for the Queen.

That night, several groups of goblins risked their lives to sneak into the cave where the queen was temporarily staying, trying to steal the gold coins. The queen was furious and went berserk, rushing to the goblin camp and burning nearly a thousand goblins to death.

"Damn it! I hired you to work for me based on the spirit of a fair and just contract. Yet you come to steal the money of the most important ally of the Alliance!? I hired workers, not thieves and liars!" Duke waved his hand and told all the goblins to get out.

The goblins wanted to argue, asking if they could get half of their wages or something, but Alexstrasza nearby showed off her power: "Get lost! If you keep talking nonsense, I will burn down your Treasure Bay!"

If you ask, what is the difference between the goblin boss and the ordinary goblins who are both looking for death, it is that the goblin boss at least has some brains, they know that goblins can't afford to offend red dragons. If you want to blame someone, blame them for not being able to control their brainless guys who are looking for death and stealing the treasure of the red dragon queen.

The queen showed her dragon power and the goblins fled in panic.

Then it was easy, and you didn't even have to pay the 15 million gold coins.

Several bigwigs of the alliance turned around and wondered if Duke had deliberately deceived the goblins.

That's right! It was intentional!

Goblins are a race that is greedy for money. freēwēbηovel.c૦m

Morality and the like will be sold for money.

They can work for orcs, dragons, or fire elementals. They can sell out their previous employers in the next second to whoever offers the highest price.

Last year, Daelin led the Stormwind Kingdom's fleet, and the two fleets joined forces to go to Booty Bay to cause trouble for the goblins. They defeated the goblins and forced them to cede land and pay compensation, and almost hand over all their warships.

This year, they finally got a big deal. The goblins almost used up all their gunpowder stocks. Who knew that they could not get any more than the 1 million gold coins as a deposit. The goblins were really angry and aggrieved. Although they doubled the price of cheap black gunpowder and added an extra zero at the end when quoting, they still felt that they were cheated by Duke this time.

Well, Duke did screw them.

So what?

Duke would never let these bastards join the Alliance even if he was beaten to death. Besides, in the original history, the goblins were on the side of the Horde.

After using it, he just kicked it away, and the entire alliance was cheering.

The last element in the rapid construction of Stormwind and Nethergarde was the arcane puppets. These humanoid puppets over five meters tall were not rare. They could be seen everywhere on the streets of Silvermoon City.

The puppets only need a magic apprentice to operate them, and they are very useful. They work hard and can easily lift a ten-ton boulder.

The core part of the strongest outer wall of Nethergarde was built by arcane puppets. They carried cut boulders and piled them up one by one. One puppet could do the work that would take hundreds of people a day.
