Menethil's Power

Chapter 394 The Royal City at Noon

There is a fixed two-way portal between the Blizzard headquarters and the Royal Academy of Lordaeron, but considering the cost of teleportation, only high-level personnel have the right to try it for free.

Naturally, Isaacs didn't have to pay for his own portal. He took Kalia and traveled through most of Azeroth in an instant, and came to the underground of the Royal Military Academy of Lordaeron.

Although he has the identity of the bronze dragon, it does not mean that Isaacs can also use the portal as a means of travel like a high-level mage. After all, the bronze dragon will consume a lot of power of time to open the gate of time and space. Especially the gate, and if the two timelines have not become parallel twin time-spaces, opening the time-space gate connecting the Well of Eternity will exhaust all the time-space power of Isaacs.

From one underground laboratory to another, the eyes are still full of silver-white metal walls full of sci-fi style, "Forget about Squall, why is that goblin so respectful to you?" Kalia suddenly asked curiously.

"Because I can decide how much his wealth will be, and this is enough to make most goblins obedient." Isaacs shrugged, "Galuvik's McDonald Company is a vassal of Blizzard Company, So he was actually working for me."

"It's no wonder that the port will be named after New Lordaeron, but I have never seen the record of this port in the financial revenue records when I helped my father handle government affairs a few years ago," Kalia's eyes suddenly He narrowed his eyes, with a sly air, "It's wrong to evade taxes, my dear brother."

"The owner of New Lordaeron is Blizzard Corporation, and Blizzard Corporation was established in Dalaran. In theory, Lordaeron has no right to levy taxes on it." Isaacs said solemnly, "So the Port of New Lordaeron The proceeds are my personal income."

Even if Lordaeron's tax collector had the guts of a bear, it would be impossible to collect taxes on his own prince. Although Blizzard was registered and established in Dalaran, it did not pay taxes after it moved out. The city of mages paid even a copper coin in taxes.

"The entire Port of New Lordaeron is yours?" Kalia got the new news from Isaacs, and the eldest princess couldn't help showing a surprised expression, "The so-called Blizzard you founded more than ten years ago The company was nothing more than a magic game workshop, but now..."

"Now the embryonic form of a commercial empire has begun to take shape." Isaacs continued, "In addition to daily trade, it also doubles as an arms business."

In a nutshell, what you do to make money is what you do.

There was a gleam of interest in Kalia's eyes, "By the way, do you know how much your own property is?"

"I don't really know if it's a fixed asset, but it should be worth a quarter of Lordaeron."

Isaacs thought he would see Kalia's more surprised expression, but found that the eldest princess suddenly showed a very aggrieved emotion, "You have done so many things by yourself, and even brought Alsace Running around and never telling me..."

Isaacs was dumbfounded, unable to think of how to respond for a while.

"Forget it, I will forgive you generously." Kalia suddenly returned to normal in an instant. This moody posture made Isaacs a little at a loss. Something weird.

"But you have to let me join Blizzard. How can you not take me with such a fun thing."

"No problem." Isaacs immediately agreed.

He originally wanted Kalia to conduct a very important experiment, which is to test whether humans have the possibility of becoming demon hunters.

But Kalia's request was a bit beyond his expectation, "What am I doing..." She made a distressed look, "Seeing how confused you are that you don't even know how much money you have, I will reluctantly accept it Your chief financial officer is ready."

Isaacs was taken aback for a moment, but then he smiled kindly, "How can the position of chief financial officer be worthy of our super invincible, noble and beautiful princess?" You can have the whole Blizzard company if you want," he said.

Callia suddenly fell silent, she looked into Isaacs' eyes, "Are you... serious?"

"Of course, after all, we are brothers and sisters. If I can't even trust my own relatives, then who else can I trust in this world?" Isaacs took it for granted.

Although Terenas graciously forgave Kalia, it is almost impossible for the eldest princess to touch Lordaeron's political power again, and Kalia is a confident and self-reliant girl, eager to prove herself. So it is obviously a very good choice to give her another platform to play.

With the growing scale of Blizzard Corporation, Isaacs is also somewhat unable to grasp it. Although Squall, Garruvik, Ronin, Obno and others are all trustworthy, the company still needs an outstanding leader. Commander, and Kalia is obviously very suitable for this position.

As for the question of trust, would he suspect a girl who was undercover for him in a powerful evil force like the Burning Legion?What's more, Kalia is his own sister.

It's just that the above-mentioned senior executives of the company have to suffer. It must not be a wonderful experience to work under Kalia.

"Brothers and sisters..." Kalia lowered her head slightly, her eye circles were a little red, but the faint redness disappeared immediately, making Isaacs think he was hallucinating.

In the Royal Military Academy, an elevator powered by arcane energy was connected to the underground laboratory. Isaacs and Kalia came to the ground. It was noon, and the students of the military academy had finished their morning classes and were enjoying a short of lunch break.

Isaacs took Kalia, and casually glanced at the students in twos and threes around him. In fact, he and Kalia were about the same age as most of the senior students, but their special identities made them shoulder heavy responsibilities early on.

Because Isaacs naturally turned on the extra-dimensional state, no one noticed the two uninvited guests. The special ability of this bronze dragon can avoid a lot of trouble. The idiot I knew was so fascinated by Kalia's beauty that he tried to provoke trouble.

"How are you planning to go back to the royal city?" Kalia asked in a brisk tone, seemingly careless.

"Let's take the flying mount directly. After all, there is still a long way to go. I'll summon Su Ren." Isaacs said, thinking that the cloud serpent must have been fed with delicious food and drink for the past three months. I don't know how much fat I have gained.

"What do you want that serpent for? A flying mount? Don't you?" Kalia suddenly showed an evil smile.

Isaacs' face darkened. Sure enough, having an extra dragon status is not a good thing. Why do these chicks want to ride him even though they have the ability to fly themselves?Under Kalia's urging, he reluctantly changed into a dragon form, and the Princess waited for him to take off with her wings after she sat firmly on his neck with a cautious attitude like dealing with a fierce horse.

Flying over Lake Lordamere and the thick walls of the royal city, Isaacs landed on the top of the palace's steeple and regained his human form.

"Your scales are too hard and uncomfortable..." After riding, Kalia actually gave a bad review.

Isaacs was full of black lines. "Should I get myself a saddle?"

He looked at the sky, "Father should be discussing important matters with the noble lords now," he said, "We need to wait for a while."

Waiting in vain is boring, Kalia suggested a game of Hearthstone, and said that she has not played this favorite game since she was a child for a long time, and she misses it very much.

Isaacs readily agreed that there was the latest version of the Hearthstone card box in Alsace's room, but the little prince himself did not seem to be in the palace. "Let me remind you that this game is very different from the one we played at the beginning." Isaacs said in advance.

After 10 minutes, Isaacs threw out a card, "Summon the Archmage Vargoth, the effect is that at the end of the round, a spell released this round will be randomly released, two arcane giants will be summoned, and the time-space warp will be used , the effect is to gain an extra round, the end of the round, my turn, the arcane giant attack, the end of the round, or my turn..."

"Boring." Kalia threw the card in her hand on the card table, feeling a little dispirited, "The designer who designed this card should be thrown into the Twisting Nether to feed the demons."

This feeling of watching the other party do whatever they want is really terrible, and there is no game experience.

"This game was sold to Dalaran seven or eight years ago, and those mage masters naturally didn't care about balance when designing cards based on themselves." Isaacs shrugged, "It's almost time, Let's go see our father."

At this time, Terenas had finished his morning government affairs and was eating in the dining room. Seeing Isaacs and Calia, the old king did not show any surprise or joy. He was obviously used to the eldest son's frequent When he disappeared suddenly, he motioned for Isaacs and Kalia to sit down, and then the servants brought them the same food as the old king.

The meaning of Terenas is very simple, if you have something to say, you can talk about it after dinner.

According to a king's standard, Terenas' meals were a bit too simple, just a thick fried steak, a fruit and vegetable salad, a glass of red wine and a few pieces of bread, but he ate very seriously, and after eating the steak Afterwards, the remaining sauce was used as a bread dip, and all the food was eaten clean, and nothing wasted.

Isaacs followed suit, while Kalia simply used some fruit.In fact, their strength has reached their level, and it is not a problem to go without food for several days.

Terenas wiped his mouth with the napkin handed over by the servant, "Finally know you're back?"

Facing his father's accusation, Isaacs could only keep smiling, "Father really has a good appetite." He praised sincerely, and then changed the topic from himself, "Where's Alsace?" He asked .

"I've sent him to Silverpine Forest, there's been some trouble in North Gilneas."

"What kind of trouble would require Alsace to go?" Isaacs was obviously interested.

"Those Northern Gilneas nobles are arguing endlessly because of one issue, that is, should they join Lordaeron." A sharp light flashed in Terenas' eyes, and the old king was full of ambition now.

"Wow." Isaacs sighed in unison, "The name of father's benevolence has been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people, and it has made foreigners look forward to it." This flattery can be said to be extremely loud.

"So you asked Alsace to win the hearts of the people as the representative of Lordaeron?" Kalia also showed interest, "But to be honest, this little guy is still a child at heart, I am afraid it will be difficult to win such a large territory for you, father. .”

"This is also a test for him. After all, Lordaeron is the only prince he can count on. He must learn how to deal with the nobles." While speaking, Terenas looked at Isaacs intentionally. Originally, the eldest son was The best candidate to succeed the king, but he himself was not happy and insisted on giving up the throne to his brother.

Isaacs looked normal, he didn't care much about the throne now, after all, even without royal power, he still had various means to control the situation, and the status of king was nothing more than a shackle to him.

"Since father wants to temper Alsace, then my elder brother's move shouldn't be regarded as breaking the rules?" He asked with a smile.

"No, you don't have to interfere." Terenas shook his head.

Isaacs carefully recalled the political situation of the human countries before he went to the War of the Ancients, and then asked: "Northern Gilneas is about to hold a referendum to determine the fate of the country, right?"

Terenas nodded.

Isaacs has no idea to ask further questions. It is difficult to have any accidents at this stage. Northern Gilneas is a country that has been seriously affected by natural disasters, and Lordaeron's timely assistance has made Shengguang and Terena His benevolence is deeply rooted in the hearts of the people.The division of Gilneas had caused most civilians to lose their sense of belonging to the country, so they should not object to joining Lordaeron again.

That is to say, as long as Alsace does not do anything too outrageous, this national merger will proceed smoothly and spontaneously. At this time, the Arathi Plateau has been completely taken over by Lordaeron. Entering Lordaeron, Terenas will rule more than 70.00% of the northern continent, which is very close to his goal of recreating the grandeur of the Arathor Empire.

This is of course a good thing. A unified country naturally has stronger political and military strength than several small divided countries. What's more, Lordaeron's territorial expansion in the past few years has been through peaceful evolution, not through war.

"Leave it to Alsace over there. If he messes up, I can only admit that my son is incompetent." Terenas said so, he looked at Isaacs, "And you, I have arranged for you another task."

"Happy to serve you, Father." Isaacs said happily.

Terenas nodded, "This matter is really up to you, Quel'Thalas has resumed diplomatic relations with us, and the Sunstrider King over there will send a distinguished ambassador over there, and you will receive it After all, ambassador, you are good at dealing with elves."

"Understood, leave it to me." Isaacs nodded, and then became curious about this distinguished ambassador.

who can that be?
