Chapter 367: Searching the Tanaris Desert.
The total amount of obsidian currently in Herad's hands must exceed 600,000 tons.
However, he is not planning to increase the tonnage of the Obsidian battleship now.
He plans to continue searching for obsidian, and then upgrade the obsidian battleship to one million tons at a time.
A million-ton interstellar spacecraft is actually not a huge tonnage.
Many larger starships can easily reach this scale.
But making it with obsidian is another story!
Obsidian is not a particularly valuable magic material.
However, when the quantity reaches a certain level, the total value of obsidian will be outrageous.
If all the materials are spent, this huge obsidian battleship can completely bankrupt any race in Azeroth!
Herad's current shipbuilding plan still lacks a hearty obsidian collection process.
Herad's dark circles were a bit heavy since he hadn't slept for several days.
Fortunately, the caster is not really weak.
Just not sleeping for a few days will not make his mental state low, let alone sudden death.
But it’s important to stop, take a break, and plan your next move.
He sat down by the cooling pool, which had cooled down considerably.
Looking at the steam spring erupting from time to time in front of him, he summoned a stream of spring water to generate a lifelike map of the continent of Kalimdor.
On this map of the Kalimdor continent composed of a water curtain, the southernmost Silithus Desert and Un'Goro Crater have darkened.
The Tanaris Desert east of Un'Goro Crater is an area with great potential to be developed.
But Herard guessed it was not as good as Un'Goro Crater.
It is estimated that it is at most similar to the Silithus Desert.
His guess is supported by reliable information.
Through the information from the dragon, it can be determined that the obsidian creations in the Beetle Wall were not made by the Titans in the Silithus Desert.
Their real source is Uldum in the southernmost part of the continent.
Those guys were working in the Titan Labs in the Desert of Silithus, trying to decipher the secrets of the Old Gods.
Then their research yielded no results, and instead they were corrupted by C'Thun.
The huge group of ruins inside the Beetle Wall was the original Titan Laboratory.
So those obsidian creations are equivalent to working across regions.
Guys who work across regions cannot be included in the local population.
Then it would be reasonable to reduce the obsidian reserves in the Silithus Desert by more than half.
In theory, the Tanaris Desert is similar to the Silithus Desert.
Obsidian reserves probably do not exceed one hundred thousand tons.
Judging from the current situation, only Uldum, the origin of obsidian creations, can meet Harad's plan for a million-ton obsidian battleship.
But as one of the Titan's most important arsenals, the bronze dragon guards it very strictly.
In the distant ancient times, the ambitious Thor rushed into Uldum and violently snatched control of the Forge of Origin, almost causing the Forge of Origin to explode.
In order to ensure that no one can enter, the Bronze Dragon, who is proficient in time and space, set up a magic circle in Uldum that reverses time and space.
When time and space are reversed, when you walk in, you will come out inexplicably.
And there is a certain probability of being cheated by the time stream.
For example, if you go in and walk around for a while and then come out, you will see that the world has changed outside.
With the protection of such a heaven-defying protective circle, no one can enter Uldum anymore.
If you want to enter, you can only find special permission from the Bronze Dragon King Nozdormu.
If Harald made this request, Nozdormu would probably approve it.
However, he decided to look outside first.
If you really can't get enough, go trouble the bronze dragon.
The Tanaris Desert, like the Silithus Desert, is an endless sea of sand.
The druids planted a large number of cacti and a small number of drought-tolerant trees in the area near Un'Goro Crater to improve the environment.
Looking at the well-developed cactus forest in front of me.
Herard was very moved by the Druids' persistence. This is the only place in the Tanaris Desert where there are plants.
The other place with plants is the coastal area on the east coast.
Druids planted many coconut trees and palm trees there.
But there is really nothing we can do in the inland areas!
Without water, druids can't plant trees in the desert.
Druids have a certain ability to control wind and rain.
They can summon tranquil rain to heal plants and animals.
But this method belongs to the category of ultimate ultimate move.
Summoning once or twice a day is enough.
And the rainfall of Serenity Rain is not heavy.
For such an arid desert, a few drizzles makes no sense.
Therefore, Herard suggested that the Druids dig channels to divert seawater for irrigation.
There is definitely no problem in greening the desert through sea water.
Many plants can absorb seawater and grow normally.
Trees such as coconut palms and Elaeagnus are also commercial crops.
This kind of planned planting can bring a lot of economic income to the night elves.
Why not reap financial benefits while greening the desert?
The druids had great confidence in Herad's idea.
This greening plan is feasible in theory.
As for practice, druids are definitely the best at it!
A vigorous operation to transform the desert begins!
A large number of tauren, centaurs, and wild boars stationed on the east coast and started a major project of digging canals.
These are the apprentices brought by the druids for internship.
As the overlord of the Kalimdor continent, the night elves can recruit their underlings to work for free.
This model of leading apprentices has made several wealthy families grateful.
Seeing those big men digging canals and planting trees enthusiastically, Herard was very impressed by the appeal of the night elves.
Although I don’t know if the Burning Legion has a chance to invade.
This good momentum is worth maintaining.
In the game plot, when Archimonde led demons and undead to the continent of Kalimdor, the night elves led a temporarily assembled army of humans and orcs to resist the invasion.
The hastily assembled army was unable to withstand the attack of the demon and undead army.
In the end, the night elves had to sacrifice a large number of elves and blew up Archimonde and the World Tree together.
If it were in its current state, and the Burning Legion only invaded through the legion portal, it would definitely be defeated by the night elves and their hardcore allies.
Of course, it is better not to face those terrible enemies directly.
Demonic blood can pollute the earth.
Even if you kill them, it will still take time and effort to purify the pollution.
Building an extremely powerful obsidian battleship to sweep away the many evil planets occupied by the Burning Legion is the most appropriate way to deal with it.
This requires sufficient obsidian support.
However, the obsidian reserves in the Tanaris Desert were worse than Harad had guessed.
Except for the area near Un'Goro Crater, there isn't much obsidian anywhere else.
The obsidian distributed along the outer edge of Un'Goro Crater is not as easy to mine as Un'Goro Crater.
Herad could only collect from south to north along the dividing line.
During the collection process, he discovered that the closer to the north, the smaller the amount of obsidian.
Obviously this is the trend of obsidian distribution in Kalimdor.
