Crossing Azeroth, starting with the Heroes of Might and Magic system

After everyone had studied it for a while, the shield infantrymen retreated and it was the turn of the soldiers from the next country to take the stage.

The second to appear was the Kingdom of Stromgarde. Three raptors rushed in and demonstrated in the center of the venue, posing in various different shapes.

There was a round of applause in the arena, because humans had never used velociraptors as mounts before. One main reason was that the source was limited, as velociraptors mainly grew in Arathi Highlands; the other was that velociraptors were difficult to tame.

The captain of the velociraptor cavalry introduced to the audience: "Dear guests, we are the cavalry from Stromgarde. Let me introduce the velociraptor cavalry to you."

"By comparison, the running speed of a velociraptor is about 30% faster than that of a horse, and its jumping ability is also 30% stronger than that of an ordinary horse. Its advantages are its high speed and ability to pass through complex terrains, but its disadvantage is its limited load capacity."

"The raptor is suitable for light cavalry or scouts. Everyone is welcome to learn more about it."

Guests from other countries went up to observe the velociraptors, but Varian was not interested, mainly because Stormwind had no velociraptors. If he wanted one, he would have to buy it from Stromgarde, so he might as well buy a griffin from the system himself.

Then he started eating and waiting for the next presentation.

After a while, the velociraptor cavalry finished their display and it was the turn of the soldiers from the next country to enter.

The third one to appear was the Alterac Kingdom display. Six soldiers came in carrying a tower-like model.

Varian took a look and saw it was a turret!

The soldier introduced: "This is the latest city defense system developed by the Kingdom of Alterac, called a turret. We combined the artillery technology of the dwarves and transformed the arrow tower into a turret. The attack power is far greater than that of the arrow tower, and the killing range is also larger. It is used to defend against large-scale attacks and has an excellent effect."

Varian also went forward to take a look. The innovation of the turret, in addition to installing artillery, was more importantly to convert the original interior of the arrow tower into an ammunition delivery system, which made the ammunition delivery faster and achieved a steady output.

This turret is very good. This technology must be learned. We must also build some in the Dagger Ridge Fortress. It has first-class defense.

The fourth to appear was the Storm Kingdom's display. Three griffin knights, riding griffins, slowly flew from the door to the center of the venue.

The scene was suddenly in an uproar. Many people knew that the dwarves of Sintland had tamed some griffins, but few humans could tame griffins as mounts, let alone as combat troops.

Many people on the scene speculated that this might be a griffin from the Hinterland Forest. After all, many people did not have griffins in their countries and had only heard of them.

Just as they were guessing, a priest on a griffin introduced: "This is a griffin found on the cliffs of Dagger Ridge in the Kingdom of Stormwind. We call it a royal griffin. This griffin is larger than the griffins in Hinterland, flies faster, and is more friendly to humans."

"After continuous exploration, we combined griffins and priests to create the Griffin Knights, which can launch long-range spell attacks on targets from the air. Everyone is welcome to come and learn more."

As soon as these words were spoken, people from all the kingdoms could no longer hold back and surrounded the griffin, with some even trying to ride it.

In this era, air forces are a dimensionality reduction attack on ground forces.

At this time, the dwarven flying vehicles had not yet been developed. The high elves of Quel'Thalas tamed some dragon eagles, but their numbers were rare and they were not sold to the outside world.

The appearance of the Griffin Knights in the Storm Kingdom brought them hope. Which country doesn't want to have its own air force?

"Prince Varian, how many griffon riders are there in Stormwind Kingdom now?" asked King Solas of Stromgarde.

"There are only more than fifty griffin knights at present. The griffins are still there, but the training and running-in of griffin knights requires time." Varian said.

"Then can we buy some griffins for training and breeding?" asked King Terenas.

"Of course. The griffins of Stormwind Kingdom are sold to all human kingdoms. After the exchange meeting, everyone is welcome to come to Daggerridge Fortress in Stormwind Kingdom to inspect and purchase griffins." Varian said.

Seeing that everyone was so interested in the griffin, Varian was overjoyed. He had finally sold the griffin. Now all human countries were interested, and he expected the griffin to sell well after he returned.

After the Griffin Rider’s full display, the next thing to come was the display of the magical kingdom of Dalaran.

Only a few witches and an ordinary soldier walked in.

The witch cast magic on the soldiers, demonstrating her skills of slowing down, invisibility, and transforming into a sheep.

These spells were all ordinary spells. When everyone was not paying attention, the witch continued, "As a new combat unit in Dalaran, witches have now formed a large-scale, process-based training model, which can effectively support the front battlefield."

Scale! Process! Varian grasped the key words.

Varian is also very interested in the training of witches, because if the troops are equipped with a certain number of witches, the combat effectiveness of the troops will be greatly improved.

Large-scale and process-based training means that witches only need to specialize in learning these few spells. The threshold will be greatly lowered, the time will be greatly reduced, and the cost will also be reduced. After all, those who went to the battlefield in the past were all-round wizards, who were few in number and expensive.

This is worth studying, and the witch army is also a must.

The Kingdom of Gilneas demonstrated new beast manipulation technology. Unlike ordinary hunters, a Gilnean soldier commanded six wolves at the same time.

The Kingdom of Kul Tiras brought out a new warship model, equipped with the dwarven's latest artillery technology.

Varian is not very interested in the latter two technologies.

He already had many griffins recruited from the system, and he could control them at will without the need for Gilneas' technology.

The warships of Kul Tiras are somewhat useful, but there is no rush, because the upcoming orc war will mainly be fought on land, and the warships will not play a big role.

After all countries had presented their works, the meeting began with a free discussion.

The most discussed topic was the griffin, so many people gathered around Varian.

When they heard that the dwarves of Ironforge had purchased twenty griffins, they had already made up their minds.

If the dwarves can buy it, why can't I? One hundred thousand or eighty thousand gold coins, who can't afford it? Several countries reached a preliminary intention to buy it on the spot.

Varian also went to find out about the shields of the top shield infantry. One shield cost as much as twenty gold coins, which was nearly one-third of the price of an infantryman.

But after thinking about it, it was worth it. After all, it could greatly improve the survival rate of infantry on the battlefield. So Varian ordered two hundred shields from the Kingdom of Lordaeron.

Varian thought that after returning, he would recruit infantry from Moonbrook Town, distribute shields to them, and train them to be shield infantry to serve as the front row.
