Civilization of Azeroth: Start the Great Pyramid Chapter 151

The banquet for Lao Chen was not held in the Gadgetzan Hotel, but was chosen in the square in the center of the city, or in the form of an open-air barbecue.

For such an arrangement, Lao Chen expressed his satisfaction. He is an unrestrained character. Sitting properly in the luxurious lobby would make him uncomfortable.

Hundreds of bright fuel lamps are erected in the square, thanks to goblin technology and fuel mined from the deep sand plains.

The street lights in Gadgetzan now use this kind of light. At this time, there are hundreds of lights in the square, making the whole square bright like daytime.

Li De personally presided over a barbecue, carefully brushing oil on the lizard's legs, and listening to the sizzling sound of barbecue, his appetite was instantly widened.

"The Protector, Marshal Lothar and His Majesty Dailin have both converted to the light of civilization. It is said that the people who are already the Protector of the Great Sea should also convert. It's just that I have practiced the way of nature since I was a child. Teacher's teaching..."

Lao Chen said in a low voice beside Li De, he thought his voice was low, but in fact, even if he lowered his voice, the people around him could hear it clearly.

Of course Li De understood this and shook his head to indicate that the other party didn't have to worry about it, and he didn't even bother to talk about it.

"Master, please."

Just cut off a piece of roasted meat with a knife and handed it to Lao Chen.

"Haha, Du Hu Xie, the Sa family is a little flattered by making such a big show for one person."

Old Chen took the meat unceremoniously, but he didn't forget to be grateful before enjoying it.

Pandaren monks are both rough and fine. He knows that he has just joined the Vast Ocean Protector, and he has received such courtesy from Li De even if he has done his best. I am afraid that it will cause some old people's dissatisfaction.

"Master don't have to worry about it. Tonight is not only for the master, but also for the entire guardian. Tonight, except for those who must be on duty, all positions are closed.

The location of the celebration is chosen here so that everyone can participate in the celebration. Master may wish to toast with everyone, and also recognize people for future work. "

"Well, let's go to the house."

In fact, there is no need for Lao Chen to get up. People such as Haggard, Nogfogg, Brad, Niebuhr and others have already walked over and took the initiative to talk to Lao Chen. Lao Chen also generously poured out the wine in the wine urn and shared it with everyone. share together.

"Master Minister, I think there are a lot of people celebrating tonight. If the money allocated for half of the celebration is not enough to spend, you can't be stingy."

There are several ministers in the Duhu of Hanhai, but at this time everyone knew that Li De was referring to Nogforge.

Holding a wine glass several sizes smaller than the others, Nogfogg said in a shrill voice.

"The Protector made a joke with me again, to celebrate the joining of Master Chen, and to have heroes join us in the future, the standard is 1,000 gold coins.

I may be stingy in other places, but when it comes to treating heroes, Nogfogg is never stingy. Tonight, everyone is open to eat and drink. I am afraid that the 1,000 gold coins will not be spent. "

What Nogfogg said is true, since the establishment of the Hanhai Duhu, it has always advocated frugality.

There is enough wine and meat for the open-air barbecue, but there is nothing particularly extravagant.

The main consumption is the self-produced lizard meat, which is less than 10 copper coins per kilogram, and the most delicious lizard tail is 5 silver coins. Pointing at eating meat to eat up the 1,000 gold coins, I really have to invite all the young and old to come together.

Of course, it's impossible to have only meat. The staple foods and fruits that accompany meals may be more expensive. The most expensive ones are imported drinks, but there's really no need to break down these things.

Li De couldn't help saying emotionally after drinking for three times.

"Since I opened up, thanks to everyone's approval and willingness to work together with me, I have managed to achieve such a situation. In the future, please don't give up, and remind me a lot on the way forward, not to take the wrong road."

As he spoke, Li De took a small barrel-like oak wine glass and drank it.

Li De's alcohol intake was not strong. After drinking the glass of wine, he was already a little drunk. Seeing this, everyone helped Li De aside to rest.

During the festival tonight, even without Li De present, everyone opened their hearts and spoke freely.

"Master, I'll give you a toast. The captain trusts me, and Niebuhr and I are in charge of the army. Niebuhr is the captain's student, and with the approval of all the Loa, there is a bright future.

It's just that my personal abilities are limited, and I'm always afraid of losing the trust of the captain. With the help of the master in the future, the burden on me will be lighter. "

Bradra said confidently to Lao Chen, it could be seen that he was indeed a little drunk, and he still called Li De "captain" as before.

Old Chen proudly clinked glasses with Brad and Niebuhr who was sitting beside him.

"The Sa family is used to being loose, and it is definitely impossible to manage important matters in the army, but the two of you can rest assured. In the future, the Sa family will act as a pawn, and will do her best to guard the Huhai Protector."

Old Chen said humbly that both Brad and Niebuhr were already experienced military chiefs, and Old Chen had no intention of fighting for power with them.

It's just that during the entire conversation, apart from these three people, and even people from other departments, they all acquiesced in Lao Chen's future duties, which must be arranged in the army.

Li De, who was resting on the side, was almost sober at this time. Although his alcohol intake was not very good, as a heroic warrior, his body was different from ordinary people. He was drunk faster but woke up faster than others.

Seeing that Lao Chen and Brad and the others were having a good conversation, Li De didn't bother to go there any more, leaving more space for his companions to communicate with each other. He didn't need to be there for everything.

It was rare to relax, Li De simply enjoyed the joy at the moment.

In addition to a group of high-level officials and cadres, most of the people who participated in the celebration were ordinary people.

It was the troops on guard and the workers who were sticking to their posts. Norgefogg and Haggard also explained that they would improve their meals tonight. In addition, many residents gathered in the square.

Besides eating and drinking, people sang and danced spontaneously, inspired by the cheerful atmosphere.

Most of the human race has a very developed artistic talent. Many of the old people of Stormwind City have brought out their musical instruments. Under the leadership of William, who is in charge of literature and art, they perform a new song belonging to the Protector of Hanhai.

The immigrants from Alterac are also unyielding, and the persevering Highlanders are also good at singing and dancing, and they actually danced a heroic dance to the new song.

The sand trolls also laughed and joined in the fun, although the sand trolls have been in poverty for a long time and have no economic foundation to develop art. But the long-term priest culture also gave them a unique priest dance.

After the establishment of the Huanhai Duhu, new improvements and management were made to the belief culture of sand trolls, and some of the original priest activities were replaced by new beliefs. And the old priest dance has become pure entertainment.

These people who got together because of the industrialized production model are doing cultural exchanges naturally at this time.

And William, who is particularly sensitive to art, looked at the scene in front of him, and a flash of light flashed in his mind. After handing the conductor and playing to his deputy, he ran aside like a madman, pouring the wine and barbecue sauce in himself composing music on his clothes!

The fusion of different styles of dance has inspired his creative inspiration. Soon he will compose a large-scale song and dance drama, which will shape the new culture of the Protectorate of Hanhai.

Li De is happy to see this happen. After building the new wonder oracle, he chose to hold a collective celebration in the square, partly because he encountered a fight outside the station.

Later that day, he learned from Haggard that after the arrival of the new immigrants, a lot of similar small frictions occurred, and the most serious one was even enough to go to prison. Just considering the impact, the detention of the troublemakers could only be downplayed at that time.

To allow new immigrants to witness the wonders of construction with their own eyes, is to let them feel the difference between Hanhai Protector and Alterac. By building a reverence for Hanhai Protector, it also stimulates their sense of pride and belonging, so as to promote the understanding of people in different regions. fusion.

"You are quite leisurely, and you are secretly having fun here by pretending to be drunk."

Just as Li De was thinking about it, Shandris Feather Moon came to Li De and sat down beside him naturally.

"Ha, I was discovered by you."

Li De said with a smile, and at the same time saw Yu Yue holding a small bowl in his hand. Although she participated in the barbecue conference, she seemed to have no interest in barbecue, and just ate fruit in small bites.

Sweeping his gaze upward, he found that even though he was attending a banquet, Shandris still wore a mask on his face, but for the convenience of eating, he replaced it with a mask that only covered the upper half of his face, revealing a chin with elegant lines and smooth skin.

Without the full picture of Shandris, Li De felt a little boring.

"What? Do you have to wear a mask to attend a banquet?"

Hearing Li De's question, Shandris shook his head.

"I'm used to it, and wearing a mask is just a way of life. Many people show their faces, but wear an invisible mask."

Shandris Feather Moon still had that kind of cold voice, but she soon changed her tone, turning her head and speaking to Li De with a half-smile.

"Are you interested in my appearance?"

The other party's active questioning made Li De seem a little caught off guard, and he subconsciously turned his face to one side.

Li De admitted that he did have a little fondness for Shandris, but when he thought of the other party's special status among the night elves, and that he was the leader of the Vast Ocean Protector, neither of them could give up their careers.

"Ah, it's okay, it's okay."

Stammering, Li De himself felt that he was like an idiot at the moment, teasing the other party with the spirit of wine, but was defeated by Shandris.

"I'm leaving tomorrow."

When Shandris suddenly said this, Li De was stunned.

"In such a hurry to leave?"

Feather Moon nodded.

"This time, Mindo sent me out because of the red dragon's request. In the sentinel unit, I still have a lot of things to deal with, so I can't always waste time outside."

Li De didn't say anything, isn't he the same? Since he has a heavy responsibility, he must be worthy of this responsibility, and there is nothing to be hypocritical.

"Where are you going tomorrow? Are you going back to Mount Hyjal?"

"You also know Mount Hyjal?"

Shandris turned her whole body over to make her feel more comfortable at night. Naturally, she didn't wear this wide cloak, and her perfect figure was unobstructed.

Li De rubbed his face and said with a very serious expression.

"Of course I do. How could I not know about the highest peak in Azeroth? In the history of Zandalar, there is no shortage of praise for the mention of Mount Hyjal."

Shandris Feathermoon smiled.

"Their historians are fair. You should also know that our relationship with Zandalar was not very good in history."

Li De snickered in his heart: Is it not just bad? Is it the level of an enemy of generations? For the night elves toppling the troll empire, Zandalar is still holding his breath! And on the side of the arrogant night elves, they will not admit that they once belonged to the trolls.

Thinking of this, Li De couldn't help but say it with a little bit of wickedness.

"Takshiro, the elder of the history of Zandalar, is also a guest here. He didn't come at the banquet. Now, while everyone is happy, why don't I invite this elder out and let everyone sit down and chat?"

Shandris couldn't help complaining coquettishly.

"You mean to watch us fight, right?! Bad guy!"

Li De laughed, he found that he could talk to the other party with a normal heart.

"Don't dare. Although Elder Takshiro is only nine hundred years old, he is already a real old man. He can't beat you."

Speaking of which, both of them laughed. After laughing, Shandris shook his head slightly.

"I'm not going back to Mount Hyjal this time, but Feralas. You probably haven't been there, but I think you'll like it there."

Hearing Shandris mention Feralas, Li De was stunned for a moment and then understood.

"Is Feralas near Desolace? Although I haven't been there, my caravan has been there to do business with tauren and centaurs.

Isn't there on the other side of the continent? Do you need me to send a boat to take you back? "

When Shandris heard Li De say this, she couldn't help but chuckle.

"It turns out that it was you guys who caused trouble. A group of hooligans sent by the goblins passed by Feralas before and was noticed by my troops. They came to target you, right?"

Li De was ashamed for a while.

"You actually know about this."

"Don't underestimate our sentry troops, if they didn't find out that they were not targeting us, those hooligans would not be able to get out of Feralas.

I don't need to be as troublesome as the goblin caravan when I go back to Feralas. From the Thousand Needles to the north of you, you can go directly to Feralas.

Believe me, on this continent, night elves are far safer to walk than other races. "

Inadvertently being shown off, Li De nodded with a pursed mouth. This is true. Twenty years before the Dark Portal, looking at the Kalimdor continent, who would dare to provoke the night elves.

Although it was a little uncomfortable to be shown by Shandris, it also opened up a way for Li De.

"From Thousand Needles to Feralas smoothly... If I go to Feralas as a guest in the future, will you welcome me?"

Li De tried his best to make his eyes look sincere, but Shandris Feather Moon broke through his little ninety-nine.

"Are you sure you're visiting me? I'm afraid you have some bad intentions, right? Manage your Tanaris well. If you cause chaos on the mainland, be careful to anger Mindo."

Having said that, Shandris rolled Li De's eyes, put the last grape in the bowl into his mouth, and stood up without reluctance to take a fragrant breeze.

But just before leaving, Shandris looked back and smiled.

"If you simply visit Feralas, I might host you? But I'm not always in Feralas."

After Shandris left, Li De was still thinking about the meaning of her words. This is Lothar holding a glass of wine, walking over and sitting down with a smile.

"It's a good woman, but your performance is terrible."

Hearing the joke in Lothar's mouth, Li De shook his head helplessly.

"I suddenly miss the white-haired marshal, at least the kind old man won't make fun of the younger generation like that."

Lothar said with a nonchalant smile.

"Suddenly regained the feeling of youth, let me, an old man, get used to it first~www.mtlnovel.com~ But I'm serious, leader of the dignified party, what is your heroism in Burning Plains and Grim Batol? Go? Why do you look so rubbish? Do you have to learn from Turalyon?"

Li De wants to cry but has no tears. This can be regarded as "how mountains are different from each other". Give him 18,000 people, let him find a way to fill his stomach, or create a piece of land. He is good at it. experience.

After seeing Li De's embarrassment, Lothar also put away his ridicule. After all, as an elder, he should be more solemn.

"Okay, seriously. In fact, I really want to thank you for making me regain my vitality. Do you think the light of civilization can make Archbishop Fao younger? I please say that Archbishop's body is no longer ideal. ."

Li De was also quite moved by this, but when he thought about it, he didn't think it would work.

"I'm afraid it can't be done. The light of civilization only repairs the damage that magic has done to you. You are not an old man. The archbishop is aging naturally, and the light of civilization will not go against nature.

Of course, if possible, I would also like to invite the Archbishop to be a guest here. The environment of Hope Harbor is much better than that of Lordaeron, which has a cold and humid climate, which should help the Archbishop to recuperate. "

Li De really hoped that Fa Ao would be a guest at Du Hu of Hanhai. This old man was holding an aging body, but he still worked hard for himself and for the alliance. He was most worthy of morality and respect.

It's just that he still has a lot of things to do in the next period of time, so the invitation to Fao can only be postponed.

After sending Shandris off tomorrow, the first thing he has to do is to discuss with Daelin to develop the coast of Dustwallow Marsh, the island that will be called Theramore in the future.
