Chapter 53: The Followers

Molten Town, Sally Gulun's inn, where a team of eight gathers.

"This Uldaman expedition is something I've never experienced before, and I salute our Arcanist for this great harvest." Surveyor Redul bared his big white teeth and raised his glass in homage to Patrick.

The Explorers' Guild's quest for Uldaman was perfect, as the Copperbeard Dwarves easily (with soy sauce) penetrated deep into Uldaman, and also killed (screaming and cheering) one of the Senators of Darkhearth, and this time the dwarves were rewarded with a lot of excitement to the spirits of several dwarves.

However, Patrick is not in the habit of drinking, and mages, especially high-ranking mages, need to keep a clear head at all times, Patrick poured a full glass of juice and the dwarf symbolically drank it.

"Ahh Good wine......" The dwarf's rough voice came, accompanied by a full burp, and he couldn't help but feel a little sorry to see that Patrick hadn't drunk.

"It's thanks to Master Pat joining us this time that we can get those treasures, and let's have another toast for this success." Serdurin the Lost echoed in that the dwarves were in a good mood and had a good drink.

"Thanks to your maps this time, we were able to find the seat of Kazgros so directly, and thank you for your help." Patrick's words were heartfelt, and the map of the five dwarves did help the expedition team save a lot of time.

Patrick's simple words made the five dwarves drift a little, and the praise from the elves' mouths was not often heard, especially the praise of other races.

------------

The High Elves of Quel'Thalas are all models of high wealth and handsomeness or white wealth, beautiful and long-lived, rich and kind, they have lived in the magic kingdom of the High Elves for generations, ---- Quel's Salas, living a magnificent and luxurious life.

The elves of the Kingdom of Quel'Salas have studied arcane magic for generations, and spells are integrated into every part of the elves' lives, and the strong individual strength of the High Elves and the long-term invincible arcane magic have made the name of the Kingdom of Quel'Salas deeply rooted in the hearts of every race in the continent.

Well, I must state that these are all gold that the High Elves themselves put on their faces.

In the eyes of human beings, elves have a long lifespan, men are handsome and handsome, and women are as beautiful as flowers, but even if they have a character, they are grudgeful, arrogant, and unreasonable. The arrogance can still be understood, after all, the power of the Kingdom of Quel'Salas is there, and the strength of the elven mage is obviously stronger than that of humans.

But holding grudges and being unreasonable is always unreasonable. Humans on the continent of Azeroth are the most populous race, compared to the elves' lifespan of thousands of years, the age of human beings is just a flash in the pan in the eyes of elves, many humans have offended a certain high elf because of something, 100 years have passed, that human may not even have ashes left, but the high elves still remember it clearly, vividly.

And when the High Elves come to the door again, it's a bit ridiculous for humans.

"My great-grandfather (great-grandfather) did it? You show evidence, so many years have passed, my father may not know, what do you want me to do? What's the matter with me? ”

"Are you sure it was my grandfather who did it? We didn't live there 100 years ago. ”

"Ahh Hehe!! Your elves have a really good memory, and you still remember them clearly after all these years. ”

……

Therefore, for the human high-level people, they all hate the High Elves, and when Antonidas was there, the elves and humans were only a superficial balance in Dalaran, and the most obvious example was Garissus. Due to Garissus' paranoia, arrogance, and great humanism, he forced the blood elves led by his ally at the time, Prince Kael'thas, and led Kael'thas to lead the Kingdom of Quel'Thalas to break away from the alliance directly.

Stormwind's covert support for the Silver Covenant, and Gianna's purge of Dalaran in the later period, abound.

------------

So the praise that came out of the mouth of the proud elf was very useful to the five dwarves, like a powerful stimulant injected into the heart.

"Hahaha...... We are also the main force of this expedition, and let's make another toast to our success. Olaf smiled like a chrysanthemum, raised the wine glass in his hand, and the five dwarves drank another glass of wine, and their faces were a little red.

The party had not lasted long, and most of them were boasting to each other through the strength of the wine, and Patrick listened to the black line, and Aurelia had long been a little tired of the dwarves, and just sat politely.

When everyone returned to their rooms, Patrick, Aurelia, and Lorne Flowsong were left with the three elves.

Lorne Liuge spoke first, "Thanks to Chief Patrick's help, this expedition is very meaningful. "It's just a few polite words, and there is not much nutrition.

"Aurelia and I plan to return to the Sun Temple after a break, do you need to go back to Quel'Salas together?"

Lorne Liuge looked a little hesitant: "Huh!?" I'm good to say. And there seemed to be something in the words.

"Hmm!! Is there something you want to tell us? ”

Lorne Liuge took a deep breath and said his thoughts: "Chief Patrick, I want to work under your Excellency. ”

But Lorne Liuge doesn't seem to have much confidence in himself, and he just says it as if he is about to make up his mind.

Patrick was silent for a moment, then said, "That's fine, we'll make detailed arrangements after we get back to the Tower of Light." ”

Patrick is now short of manpower, and when the family's alchemy raw materials can be stably supplied, he can harvest a certain amount of primordial capital in the Sun Temple and even the Ghost Land, and at the same time be able to increase his influence on the surrounding area. As the chief mage of the Sun Temple, he is more or less a lord, and he can attract nearby adventurers to do something for him under his banner.

According to Patrick's own plans for the future, the focus of his work is not on Silvermoon City, and it is imperative to recruit some people to form the intelligence department and personnel department. Moreover, if Azeroth enters turmoil in the future, Patrick will also have to accumulate his own strength to protect one side, so a sound administrative structure is essential, and it needs to be able to shoulder the burden of various social responsibilities at critical moments.

Lorne-Liuge is a good choice, he is an adventurer, he has a clean foundation, he has no dirt with those families in Silvermoon City, he is relatively trustworthy, and he has a certain amount of insight and contacts in the adventurer group, he is in charge of the intelligence department, collects the intelligence and trends of some forces, and encompasses adventurers to work for themselves, or secretly promotes public opinion and stable order, which is also very necessary.

"He was recruited to give him a position to see what he was capable of and to make decisions." Patrick thought to himself.
