Chatting along the way, the Fifth Legion traversed the entire Tirisfal Glade, passed the heavily defended ruins of the King of Lordaeron, and crossed the Haru Gorge to reach the Silver Pines Forest. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

After crossing the Haru Gorge, the Silver Pine Forest, a land full of life and a vast area, once again appeared in front of Locke and the others.

Compared to Eregor and Colfax, Bridget and Locke, as well as the entire Fifth Legion, were very excited compared to Erigor and Colfax, who had been gone for almost a year.

"Ah, I feel like I'm at home!" Bridt's eyes closed, smelling the fresh earth and forest in the air, she said with some intoxication, "It feels so good to be at home!" ”

Locke nodded with deep feeling, the Silver Pine Forest was like his hometown here, and returning here made his heart settle down a lot.

Like a wanderer returning home, he wanted to return to Iva immediately to see what had changed there.

At this moment, the sound of a large number of horses galloping suddenly sounded in front of him, and then a herald rushed over.

"High Lord, Deputy Commander Hudson, Colonel Paul, they have come to meet you."

Sure enough, it didn't take long for a large number of cavalry to rush over and surround the infantry of the Fifth Legion. At the head were Hudson, the veteran officer, and Colonel Paul, who was stationed at the exit of Haroo Canyon.

"Welcome home! Great Lord! Colonel Hudson and Colonel Paul were at the exit of the canyon, saluting Locke and the Fifth Legion.

Hudson, a veteran officer of nearly 45 years, was Locke's appointed supreme commander of Eva. On the old man's body, new robes and armor were worn on his body, and his face was full of uncontrollable smiles.

After Locke greeted them briefly, the cavalry joined the legions, and the large force began to march towards Iva.

Along the way, Locke briefly asked about Eva's situation, and the answer he received made Locke very satisfied, and the details will not be known until Eva later.

As he passed by Lake Lordamere, Locke was surprised to find several small boats made of steel parked on the lake! The ship was sailing on the surface at an extremely high speed, and there were quite a few soldiers patrolling on it!

After questioning Hudson, it was revealed that the steel boats were the new invention of the goblins.

At the time of Locke's departure, there were only a few small fishing boats on Lake Lordamere. Fran's legions are stationed on the island in the middle of the lake, and often have a headache to clear out the resurrected fishmen. These fish-people are like tadpoles, appearing in groups in the lake, and even going ashore to attack them.

A frustrated Fran reported the situation to Hudson, who was also quite troubled. There are no shallow-water boats for such freshwater lakes in the Southern Theater of Operations, and there are not even decent sea boats. To this end, he even wanted to transport the goblins' ships to Lake Lordamere, but that could only be imagined.

Just as he was in a quandary, Shiloh learned about it. She gathered all the goblin engineers, and the goblins soon came up with a plan under the lure of high salaries.

After dozens of failures and the killing and wounding of several goblin engineers, a speedboat capable of navigating shallow water at high speeds appeared! The speedboat was made of steel plates, more than a dozen meters long, and small cannons were also installed in the bow and stern. The appearance of this kind of speedboat caused the fish-man in the lake to disappear into the lake at a very fast speed.

Locke, who heard this, couldn't help but smash his mouth, "This doesn't cost less, right?" ”

"This thing, the price of three helicopters on top of one." Colonel Hudson shrugged, "It's a bit expensive, but it's too good to deal with troublesome little things like fishmen." ”

As they spoke, several wagons full of passengers drove past the army and headed straight for the entrance to the canyon.

Locke turned his head and looked curiously at the direction they were going, when did he not lack war horses? Perhaps seeing Locke's doubts, Hudson explained.

"After you left, the goblins transported us horses from Kalimdor a few more times. At the same time, Prosecutor Shiloh made a few more deals with the goblins based on our inventory, and the number of our horses grew. ”

"Since the number of Iva has swelled to the extreme, it is very inconvenient to manage it on a daily basis. In our deliberations, the surplus population of Ivane was relocated and dispersed within our control of the Silver Pine Forest. With Iva, we have built several more towns, and these public carriages are the means of transportation that connect the towns. A ride only costs one copper coin, and the carriage travels between all the towns, makeshift camps, etc., which we have under the control of the Silver Pine Forest. ”

Hudson watched Locke's expression at all times, and when he saw Locke nodding and smiling, he breathed a sigh of relief and continued, "This is Prosecutor Shiloh's suggestion. She said that doing so will make the commoners identify with you, the Great Lord, our Ivah, and our Silver Pine Forest, which will be very helpful to our future management. ”

"You're doing the right thing!"

Locke affirmed their approach, and the stone in his heart was lowered. Such details can be taken into account, and the development of Iva will not be far behind. At the same time, he also looked up to Shiloh again, the prosecutor, if this is really a game, then her internal affairs must be S-class.

Many times she didn't think of it, she thought of it.

Not long after, several more helicopters flew overhead. After checking out the procession below, they even performed a few dangerous somersaults at Locke.

For the enthusiasm of the Air Force girls, Locke could only smile.

Lunch Locke was eaten in a satellite town of Iva.

In this town called Courage, the streets are full of people, and countless civilians are selling all kinds of cheap goods in the market.

In the shops on both sides of the road, some luxury goods began to appear. Locke looked closely, there were those who sold jewelry, there were those who sold books, and there were even those who sold antiques!

Of course, since it is a town, functional architecture is essential. Others, such as inns, blacksmiths, tailors, etc., were built.

In this town, which covers an area of less than two kilometers, there is even a church, and many civilians come and go to give their faith to the Light.

Locke couldn't help but nod, it seemed that when he wasn't here, Shiloh and the others weren't idle. This kind of detailed civil planning can only be made by professionals like them.

It looks like I've found a treasure.

In the evening, they finally arrived at the outskirts of Iwa. Today, this large town with a permanent population of more than 200,000 has finally welcomed its owner.
