A few more days passed, and the goblins' fleet had not arrived yet. There is still about a week before the Winter Festival.

Lock couldn't help but get a little anxious. So much preparations he made were based on the supplies that the goblins prepared for him, but it was almost two months since the goblins hadn't seen a shadow yet.

Lock left Iva town with some annoyance, and he rode straight to the North River Coast with his guards.

Now, the northern part of the Silver Song Forest is much safer. A large number of werewolves were surrounded and killed, and a small number were dragged into the quarry as slaves. The brown bears and wolves who were originally wandering in the woodland have become rare due to humans' lack of food.

In order not to put more and more refugees in a situation where there is nothing to do, Shilo organized refugees to start a connecting project for all the crusade camps in the northern part of the Silver Song Forest.

Shilo first drew a few lines on the map, and then the paving movement began. All the trees along the way were knocked down, bridges were built on the river, and the foothills were bypassed. The civilians used stonemasons to carve the remaining gravels on the road, and with the help of the mage apprentice, they hardened the road surface. They paved the dug sand from the seaside on the road, and the entire northern forest was completely connected.

The advantage of this is that Locke rides a horse from Iva Farm to the beach, which originally took more than one and a half hours to reach.

On the North Current Coast, countless civilians are busy.

Locke asked Hilo to build a large number of warehouses in the woodlands by the sea just to welcome the trade caravans of the goblins.

On the beach, a row of more than a dozen docks are under construction at the same time.

The pier, also known as the ferry, is a long dike extending from the shore to the water. Under the leadership of the craftsmen, the civilians were standing in the water, using hammers to hit the wooden piles inserted into the sea until they met the requirements of the carpenters. When the rows of wooden piles were inserted deep enough, the civilians began to splice wooden boards on the top of the piles, fixing them with nails to the piles and extend the depths of the sea until large merchant ships could be moored.

In addition to the surrounding docks for loading and unloading goods, there is also a dock in the middle for passengers to get on and off, and there is also an auxiliary ship and ship repair dock next to it.

While the civilians were busy, some craftsmen also measured the pier with rulers, and then marked some obvious marks every distance.

Locke called the person in charge here and asked the craftsman what he was doing. The person in charge said that he was drawing the length of the dock line.

Locke heard it a little puzzled. The person in charge explained that several ships would be parked on each pier, and drawing the length of these pier lines in advance would be conducive to the ship's docking.

To put it bluntly, the function of the dock line length is to give the crew a clear mark. Docking the boat in this area is safe and will not encounter other merchant ships.

Of course, this dock line is all drawn by the largest ship.

Locke then suddenly realized.

The pier was established very quickly, which fully proves the saying that there are many people and great power. A pier often has hundreds of people busy there at the same time. In a short while, a pier that is dozens of meters long can be built. As for the quality, it is really hard to say, so I can only wait for the fleet to arrive and actually verify it.

On the sea outside the civilians who built the pier, several fishermen were supporting small fishing boats on the sea, guarding against movements on the water.

In the world of Azeroth, the sea is not much safer than 6. There are annoying fishmen, fierce Nagas, sea monsters, sea beasts, sharks, and other strange creatures in the sea, all of which are deadly.

Every year, because of these deadly creatures, countless lives die on the sea. Even so, people still yearn for the sea because there are inexhaustible resources that humans can use.

"They?" Locke pointed at the fishermen on the sea and was puzzled.

"They are fishermen near here because of our establishment of Iva. They joined us and have been helping us fishing these days. Now, we have to build a dock and have to let them act as our watchtower to monitor the sea."

"Can they do it? They are not professional naval soldiers!" Locke asked suspiciously.

"They are all fishermen who have been living on the sea for the rest of their lives. They know the best of what they have in the sea. Legion commander, don't worry!" The captain in charge here comforted Locke. "What's more, we don't have naval soldiers, and there is no way to not use them."

Locke then thought of the suggestions of some officers and sent an ambassador to the Kingdom of Kurtiras and asked them to provide assistance to us in establishing a naval force.

Based on the situation in front of us, this seems to be a very feasible plan. Speaking of the ocean, I'm afraid no one knows better than them. And the strength of their navy is not questionable.

So, after the goblins arrive, they can rent a boat and send people to the Kingdom of Kurtiras, but who should I send?

Bridget? No! Who is responsible for the civil affairs here after she leaves? Hilo? No! Her burden is very heavy, so who should I look for?

Forget it, don't think about it for now. Let's talk about it when the goblins arrive first.

After inspecting the work here, Locke left the seaside and returned to the town of Iva.

However, before he could sit down, the soldiers outside came in to report a news that a goblin outside wanted to see him.

Locke couldn't help but wonder, what will happen to the goblins? Did he recommend a lighter that would explode to himself?

Locke walked out suspiciously, but he found that the goblins he asked him to go out this time were not the group of goblins in the camp, but a wandering goblin.

The goblin was wearing a gray-blue mage robe, holding a staff similar to his figure in his hand. There was a huge ruby ​​at the top of the staff, shining with red goggles on his eyes.

While Locke was loading up with him, the goblin was also looking at Locke, with a little surprised on his face.

"Oh! Hello! Great Lord!" The goblin first bowed slightly to greet Locke, then he raised his head to introduce himself to Locke. "My name is Garyvey Gates, and he is a goblin wizard. I came here this time to join you."

"Oh?!" Locke felt it became rare. First, there was very few mage profession among goblins, because spell research is all about money. With the habits of goblins, it might be difficult for them to spend this money. Secondly, there was one named Gates in his previous life, but they could make money even if they were very rich.

"Great Lord, don't you invite me in and sit?" The goblin wizard looked at him with a smile. Locke couldn't see his eyes, but could only see the red goggles on his eyes.

This is the core part of Iva and the most tight defense. Even if he is a goblin, he can't make any storms.

So Locke asked him to enter the town hall first to wait for news.

"Go and invite Master Olivia over here! Hurry!" Locke greeted the guards at the door to invite the female leader of the mage group. He wanted to try whether this goblin was a real mage or a fake one.

"Please sit, Mr. Gates." Rock called the goblin to sit on the reception chair. He looked at the goblin with a smile. "Can you briefly introduce where you are from? What kind of professionalism do you have?"

"Oh! Of course! That's fine." The goblin who was drinking tea put down the teacup in his hand. He cleared his throat and said formally. "I am a Dalaran mage. Before Arthas destroyed Dalaran, I escaped there and wandered in the Silver Pine Forest until now. I am an engineering master, an enchantment expert, and I am also a high-level fire mage. What I like most is to soften engineering and magic together and make some engineering creations with magic."

"For example, magic bombs! They are powerful! They can smash enemies within a diameter of 2oo yards. There is also my improved fool thrower, thunder, explosion bomb, 1o yard, and soldiers without engineering knowledge can use it." Gates took off his red goggles and held it in his hand.

"Because I am a mage who loves wisdom and research, I have no funds." The goblin said embarrassedly, "When I heard that there is a generous lord here, I came to you. I hope you can fund my research in other aspects, and there are still many wonderful things in my mind."

"For example, if you throw it out, the enemy will explode and explode, the hands and thunder can make the bullets fired by the musket have the power of magic, etc."

Gates stopped his words and looked at Locke with anticipation.

Locke delayed the time, and he picked up the teacup in his hand and drank the tea.

"Why don't you go to Storm Kingdom? I believe that the people there will be happy for you, the advanced mage, to join you?"

"Great Lord, you're wrong. The Storm Kingdom is not short of mages. In their mage tower, those stupid human mages dominated each other. He looked down on us goblin mages! They thought my idea was nerves! Oh! Sorry, Lord Lord, I'm not talking about you, I'm talking about those mages." Gates apologized sincerely. "I would rather come to the countryside than go to that self-confidenced place."

At this time, Master Olivia walked in, and she saw the goblin mage sitting beside her at a glance. Olivia's eyes suddenly narrowed, and she subconsciously picked up the wand in her hand.

"Oh? Lord Lord?! Are there any other mages here?" Gates asked in surprise. He put down the water cup in his hand and said goodbye to Locke in a hurry. "Since that's the case, I won't disturb you, great lord. I'll go find another place to accommodate you."

"No! You can't leave anything! Gallivi Gates!" The female mage of Olivia raised her staff. At the top of the staff, the blue gem began to shine with a faint blue light! The room began to get wet.

The goblin brought the red goggles in his hand, waved the staff in his hand, and a red lava appeared on the goblin's body surface, surrounding him.

Locke was stunned for a moment! How come he started fighting when he met!

"Don't do anything! Tell me! Why is this?!"
