World of Warcraft Murloc City Guide - Chapter 389
c389 lost
After learning the news of Van Cleef’s death, Cookie left crying. He planned to go to the Eastern Kingdom to find Vanessa.
Yang Yi stayed alone in the mayor’s office, facing a table full of newspapers.
Adventurers have become more and more active recently.
I don’t know whether this is a good thing or a bad thing for Ratchet Town.
Yang Yi learned from the newspaper that not only the tribe began to accept adventurers, but also the Alliance.
Adventurers can now enter the towns of the tribe and the Alliance, and even enter the main city. After entering the town, adventurers can replenish supplies from the shops in the city as long as they have money, and can even buy top-quality equipment that they never thought of from the auction house, which greatly improves the strength of adventurers.
At the same time, after a large number of adventurers joined, the tribe and the alliance quickly took advantage of them. In the past, there was no manpower or no one was willing to do the work, but now as long as a task is issued or a bounty notice is posted, countless adventurers will come forward to work for it.
Adventurers are also thinking about using the tribe and the alliance.
The adventurers were calculating in their minds. They naturally wanted to find a strong supporter like the Horde and the Alliance.
As the adventurers were gradually accepted by the Horde and the Alliance, they had helpers to run errands and assist them, but the small forces and small races that were not from the Horde and the Alliance suffered.
The adventurers lined up to help the people of the Horde and the Alliance. At first, they only had small tasks such as delivering letters, picking fruits, and feeding chickens. Later, they gradually became driving away the kobolds who occupied the mines, killing the wanted gnolls, and clearing out the harpy men who robbed on the road.
The rewards for some tasks were not actually high, but adventurers still flocked to them. After all, completing the tasks can also increase your favorability, and if you are lucky, you can also get follow-up tasks. Maybe you will meet the chief of the Horde or the king of the Alliance while doing the task line, and you may become successful.
Because many adventurers have such thoughts, the Kolkar Centaur and the Defias Brotherhood suffered. Going back a little further, even the three kobold brothers of Goldfang fled because of adventurers invading the mines.
Yang Yi heard that the murlocs in many places also suffered and became the mission targets of adventurers.
The reasons are also varied, such as worrying that the murlocs in a certain lake have eaten all the fish and need to kill the murlocs; or dislike the murlocs in a certain river swimming around and scaring the fishermen, so they need to kill the murlocs; or think that the scale of the murloc village on a certain coast is getting bigger and bigger, causing trouble for passing merchant ships, so they need to kill the murlocs.
In short, semi-civilized races like murlocs are basically stepping stones for adventurers. They only care about how many people they have to kill to complete the mission, and they don’t consider the harm caused by their actions at all.
“Will the next victim not be the murlocs in Ratchet Town?” Yang Yi was worried.
Ratchet Town and the orcs at the crossroads had a conflict over the Deadwater Oasis, and the murlocs have a bad reputation. It is not impossible that the murlocs will become the target of the tribe’s mission one day.
“No, Ratchet Town has finally had a stable life, and such a thing must not be allowed to happen. Ratchet Town cannot sit and wait for death, and must find a way to attract adventurers first.” Yang Yi thought.
Thinking of this, Yang Yi recalled the interaction between Ratchet Town and adventurers before.
In the early stage, in order to fight against the steel bristle wild boars on Thorn Ridge, Ratchet Town had cooperated with adventurers from the Guns and Roses Guild for a period of time.
Later, when building Deadwater Village, Ratchet Town also attracted investment from adventurers in order to raise funds.
Xie Fei of the Glory Guild spent a lot of money and was one of the largest investors in Deadwater Village. Mu Xiaolan also invested two sums of money on behalf of Qin Kunhui, Guns and Roses also invested money, and small groups like the Holy Sword Knights also invested a little.
“Speaking of which, these adventurer guilds are shareholders of Deadwater Village, and they have all worked hard to improve the reputation of Ratchet. We must find a way to use the relationship with Ratchet.
Also, the alliance between Ratchet and the Horde Tauren must be reached as soon as possible. By then, even if the Horde wants to issue a task to kill the Ratchet Murlocs, they must consider the feelings of the Tauren.”
Speaking of the alliance with the Tauren, Yang Yi is also helpless now.
Ratchet sacrificed dozens of Murlocs’ lives to deal with the Windfury Harpies, and finally got Baine’s support. Yang Yi himself killed the chieftain of the Thornback Boarmen with the Blight Plague and the necklace left by the Red Dragon, and got the promise of Chief Hawkwind. At this juncture, the Archdruid Hamuul Runetotem of Elder Plateau suddenly disappeared.
Hamuel and his student Nara followed a few adventurers and left. They have been gone for more than three months. The Tauren in Thunder Bluff are looking for them.
Baine is even more anxious, like a lost soul, riding a wyvern to look for people everywhere.
Yang Yi had no choice but to wait.
At this time, the door of the mayor’s office was knocked.
In the whole Ratchet Town, only the deputy mayor, the blind old man, would knock on the door. Yang Yi shouted and asked him to come in.
The blind old man pushed the door open with a piece of letter in his hand. “Lord, I received a letter from Slark, saying that the empty barrel was lost.”
“How could it be lost? Could it be a three-year-old child?” Yang Yi was angry.
In fact, if calculated by age, the little fish man empty barrel is really only three years old.
Yang Yi took the letter and took a look.
According to Slark’s letter, the little fish man empty barrel suddenly left a note one day, saying that he went to the Sweet Water Oasis to inquire about the situation, and then disappeared.
The little fishman’s empty wine barrel wrote on the note that his way to the Sweetwater Oasis was through the underground river he discovered himself. Slack was worried about encountering hydras in the river, so he wrote to ask for help.
“This daring little guy, I was worried that something would happen to him sooner or later, and it came true.” Yang Yi sighed softly.
The old blind man heard Yang Yi sighing and asked, “Lord, what should we do now?”
“Slak is so precious to this little murloc. He wrote a letter to ask for help, so of course we will go. In fact, even if there is no letter from Slack, we still have to save the little murloc’s empty wine barrel.” Yang Yi said to the old blind man .
“I will go to the military camp to mobilize the fighting fishmen now.” The old blind man said.
“Wait a minute.” Yang Yi stopped the old blind man, “The situation in the underground waterway is complicated, and we don’t know how many dangerous creatures are hidden underneath. Bringing too many fighting murlocs will make the target too big and more likely to attract danger. It is better to streamline the personnel. It’s better to go quietly with a team of elites.”
Yang Yi thought for a moment, and then said to the old blind man: “Go and call someone. Jagu, Brak, Thief Eye, Magoffin, and… little Naga.”
“Lord, where am I?” the old blind man asked hurriedly.
“You are the deputy mayor. You will be more effective if you stay in Ratchet Town.” Yang Yi said.
The old blind man said nothing more and followed Yang Yi’s instructions to call for help.
