Chapter 193: Military Parade and Controversy (Part 1)

"Anar\'belore, welcome you in the name of sunlight, Your Highness Kael'thas." Taranas and Aristophanes led a group of people on the dock to greet the elf prince.
"Anubelore\'na, the sun is guiding us. Don't give me a gift, two, I hope this abrupt coming this time will not affect the daily work of the fortress." Kael'thas smiled and cheered around. The elf waved and said.
"Please come with me, Your Highness, we have arranged your accommodation with the guard." Taranas said.
"Don't panic, Lord Taranas, I want to look at the life of the ordinary elves around the fortress and the surroundings. I wonder if it is convenient?"
Taranas turned his head to look at Aristophane who was standing aside, and said: "Your Highness, do you want to know about the military or the people's livelihood? I am responsible for the military and Ali for the people's livelihood. Master Stoffen manages."
"Since it is a fortress, let's start with military equipment!"
"Okay, please come with me!"
Subsequently, under the guidance of Taranas and the company of Aristophanes, Kael'thas first visited the battle hall of the fortress and made a very high evaluation of the terrain sand table in the hall.
"This was designed and produced by Aristophanes. It has brought us great convenience in cleaning the woods and hunting down trolls."
Then they came to the training ground, where Aristophanes commanded the rangers to give Kael'thas a small military parade.
Looking at the ranger troops and wizards passing by, as well as the magical but weird weapons and equipment on them, Kael'thas directly asked: "Taranas, I wanted to ask Now, why are the weapons your rangers use so strange in appearance?"
"This is a new compound shortbow developed by Aristophanes. It is already the third generation." When Taranas heard it, he took a hand from the ranger behind him and handed it to Kael'thas. Compared with other traditional bows, it uses new materials to make the bow arms, so although it is small in size, its range is not weak; in addition, it is easy to carry, and it is easier to open and attack in the jungle. With our optimized arrows, a trained ranger can easily hit the bullseye from 150 yards away."
The elf prince took it. The surface of this short bow was smooth, and the grip was made of an unknown material. He felt very comfortable after holding it. It is not as gorgeous and exquisite as other elven weapons, but it has a strange beauty.
Kael'thas observed carefully and found a row of small numbers near the grip: "Three One Zero Five Four".
"This is the serial number of this weapon. Three represents the third-generation bow, one zero is the serial number of the production team, and five four is the specific production order of the bow."
The elven prince tried to pull the bowstring, and then returned it to the ranger guard.
"Huh, after this military parade is over, take me to your production site to take a look." Kael'thas said as he watched Lor'themar Theron walking across the rostrum in vigor.
"Okay, Your Royal Highness. Then I will continue to introduce you. This is Lor'themar Theron and the Ranger squad led by him. They have accumulated rich experience in jungle warfare in the years of battle and can easily fight in the jungle. Twice as many trolls as they deal with each other. They are good at using double knives and long swords. They are one of the most elite ranger units in the Farstrider Fortress. They are located in the fortress ranger unit with the combat team led by another Windrunner family ranger. vertex."
"Are you talking about the ranger Sylvanas?" Kael'thas became interested.
"Yes, your highness, but her fighting style is different from Lor'themar Theron. She is better at destroying enemies from a distance. Trolls often don’t know where enemies will be easily hunted down. They give this The team has a troll name,'Akil\'Zin', which means'eaglebreaker', oh, your lord, they are here."
Kael'thas heard the words and found a small group of rangers with strange guns on their backs, and they were all women. The elf at the head had dazzling blond hair and blue eyes like the sea, and he was wearing Windrunner’s. Green armor and cloak.
"What is this armor?"
"It was also developed by Aristophanes. Later, I can let him take you to see the specific production workshop."
After the inspection of the ranger troops is completed, it is the wizard group. In the view of the archmage Kael'thas, the strength of these wizards is not very strong. Putting them in Silvermoon City is the strength of the small supervisors of the ordinary workshops, not to mention those masters. The master of core technology.
But their mental state is visibly better than those little supervisors, and their equipment is uniform, which surprised Kael'thas.
"Is the economic conditions of the Farstrider Territory so good? This equipment feels like it is almost catching up with the magic breaker." Looking at the luxurious mage robe, the staff made of rare magic metal and the huge sapphires inlaid on it, Kyle Sass was speechless.
Taranas shook his head, then motioned to Aristophane to explain the problem.
"Your Majesty, don’t look at the equipment that seems to be expensive, but we only have such a small-scale battle mage group, and many of the equipment are made by ourselves, so the cost is not too high. The raw materials are mainly through external What you get from the trade, the prince who has lived in Dalaran for a long time also understands how popular our enchanted jewelry is in human society. If your highness is interested, I can take you to visit our factory that produces enchanted items."
Kael'thas still had questions in his heart, but looking at Aristophanes with a smile on his face, he chose to bury it and waited quietly for the end of the military parade.
After eating a far-traveler-style lunch, Kael'thas followed Aristophanes to visit various production and living areas.
"This area is our production area, Your Highness."
After walking eastward along the lake for about a quarter of an hour, they came to a field surrounded by high walls. Two teams of rangers were handing over at the door. Kael'thas looked up and saw many guard towers. He saw it at a glance. A huge light magic array was carved on the surface, and these towers must be as bright as torches at night.
In addition, he also felt that the area in front of him was covered by something.
"Is it a barrier?" Kael'thas closed his eyes and tried to perceive.
Several rangers stood on it and watched their group warily. ~EbookFREE.me~ The blue-emitting long arrows were resting on the slightly opened, weird-looking longbow.
After the guards were handed over, Aristophanes reached out and took out a few badges, put one on himself, and then handed the rest to Kael'thas and his guards.
"This is?" Kael'thas opened his eyes, a gleam of light flashed in his eyes.
"Proof of entering the factory area, Your Highness." Aristophane said as he walked towards the wall on the west side of the gate. After a burst of blue light flashed, his figure disappeared in front of everyone.
Kael'thas stepped forward, but his guard stopped him: "Your Highness, be careful."
"It's okay," the elven prince put on the badge, and followed the example of Aristophanes, walking straight to the wall.
Covered by the dazzling blue light in front of him, Kael'thas had to close his eyes, and at the same time he felt that he had passed through a thick barrier, and all kinds of noisy sounds immediately passed into his ears.
"Welcome to the Farstrider Industrial Zone, welcome to the future, Your Highness!" Aristophane's voice rang in his ears, Kael'thas opened his eyes when he heard the words, and then froze in place.
