Players are coming, fortunately I have a time travel simulator

After all this time, perhaps the dungeon summoning stone is the most valuable thing in this map. It not only brings a lot of equipment and experience, but also charges players entrance fees - collecting experience and money as admission fees.

This isn't a dungeon gathering stone, it's clearly a money printing machine!

Zhou Ning was suddenly filled with motivation and curiosity about the world.

The simulation continues.

After saving Gnomeregan, you significantly altered history for the first time. According to the original course of events, Gnomeregan would have suffered a rebellion several years later, leading to a chain reaction of radiation leaks. Approximately 80% of the gnome population perished in this event, with the remaining gnome refugees fleeing to Ironforge, the Bronzebeard dwarves, under the leadership of High Tinker Gelbin Mekkatorque. Fortunately, the bronze dragons didn't bother you. Perhaps your presence has already created a new timeline.

Gelbin expressed his deep gratitude for your assistance and solemnly declared: From now on, you and your Rodann family will be eternal friends of the dwarves. In the following days, due to a minor radiation leak in Thermaplugg's radiation chamber, Gnomeregan became uninhabitable, and Gelbin Mekkatorque decided to relocate. Having just inherited the title of Duke of Rodann, you promptly extended an invitation to them to temporarily reside in your territory, Andorhal. (You earned the achievement: The Hobbit.)

[The dwarves accepted your invitation and joined your territory, which brought great development to your territory. Now it is not only the granary of Lordaeron, but also the economic center and technological center of Lordaeron.]

[In your territory, the orcs who behaved well were also released as civilians, and they were treated equally. 】

[As a time traveler, although you don't have much scientific talent, you do have some knowledge. With money, knowledge, and powerful scientists, no one can stop the progress of science.]

Under your guidance, Mekkatorque went on to invent many things, not only the steam engine and numerous machines based on it, but he also discovered rubber and silicon. Following your advice, he discovered that when a magnet passes through a closed circuit, an electric current is generated within it. Based on this, he invented the first generator in Azeroth.

To encourage the development of science and technology and to maximize change in the world, you established the Rodan Prize, modeled after the Nobel Prize. The categories also follow the Nobel Prize, establishing the Rodan Prize for Literature, the Rodan Prize for Research, and the Rodan Prize for Peace, all designed to honor those who have made the greatest contributions to Azeroth in various fields. Surprisingly, the first Rodan Prize winner wasn't you.

In November 13, your contracted author, Marcus Gill, approached you. He had recently ventured into a land called Highmountain and, drawing on his personal experiences, penned the seventh and final volume of "A Tear-Jerking Romance Novel." In this novel, while spreading the teachings of the Holy Light to a certain female tauren of Highmountain, he was unfortunately stopped by her husband, a tauren victim. Then, the strikingly handsome Marcus made another surprising move... The story continued, but the heavy-handed content prevented you from reading any further. (You received a rare item: "A Tear-Jerking Romance Novel.")

This novel deeply moved you, ultimately winning the first Rodann Literary Award. This world's literary aesthetic is truly distorted. However, your real life is quite fulfilling. As the most famous bachelor in all of Lordaeron, you've never lacked bedfellows. Furthermore, you altered another aspect of history. At the end of November 13, Jaina, who was supposed to be with Arthas, confessed her love to you. Arthas was addicted to playing cards and believed women would only slow him down. Considering Jaina wasn't even 11 yet, and you were already 17, you, uninterested in lolita, rejected her without hesitation.

In December 13, after a four-year hiatus, you held the second Duel City Tournament in Andorhal. This time, you used the next-generation Duel Disc you and Gelbin invented. After years of development and cultivation, the huge prize money and generous rewards brought the number of participants to a peak—this time, nearly 12 people, including high elves and night elves, participated in the tournament. At your suggestion, King Terenas of Lordaeron made an exception and allowed the orcs in your territory to participate, and also allowed orc prisoners used as laborers to watch the games. Your new friend, Tirion Fordring, was very supportive of your approach. He told you: He has seen the noblest orcs and the most despicable humans.

[In Andorhal, you also met Varian Wrynn, whom you hadn't seen for five years. He was now 22 years old. After you hugged each other, he invited you to come not only to participate in the Duel City Tournament, but also to invite you to his wedding next year.]

[In the days that followed, you only regretted not being able to record everything with a camera. When holographic projections filled the air and you could hear duels in various languages, including Common, Orcish, and Elvish, and even temporarily put aside the hatred of war, you realized that you had already made the initial changes to the world.]

In the end, Varian was eliminated in the first round, while Arthas reached the semifinals. The second Duel City Tournament's duel championship was between Dalaran Mage Kel'Thuzad and High Tinker Gelbin Mekkatorque. Ultimately, Gelbin emerged victorious, retaining the title of Duel King. After watching him for a while, I realized he bears a resemblance to Yugi Muto, both in appearance and card skills. Except for the baldness.

What's even funnier is that Kel'Thuzad, who was supposed to be obsessed with necromancy and even orchestrated the undead scourge, is now completely addicted to playing cards. After losing his Duel King title, he stayed in Andorhal with his cat and fought ten battles with Gelbin Mekkatorque. He's completely different from the gloomy lich he would later become.

In March 14, you traveled to Stormwind Kingdom to attend Varian's wedding. Due to your continuous assistance to Stormwind Kingdom over the past few years, your investment has been greatly rewarded. You were also granted the title of Duke in Stormwind Kingdom, and Varian generously gave Lakeside Town as your fiefdom.

From March 14 to April 3, everything went smoothly. Your two territories flourished, and thanks to you, the time traveler, the technology tree climbed rapidly. Electricity, electric lights, telegraphs, and various electrical appliances appeared in your territory. In June 16, Varian had his own son. As in history, he was named Anduin Wrynn. You looked at him for a long time, but you couldn't see any trace of the filthy priest he would later become. Instead, your old grandfather, Lothar, almost cried.

You seem to have ruined Arthas. He should have become a Paladin of the Silver Hand long ago, but in this world, he's been obsessed with playing cards, and now he can't even defeat you. Under Lothar's training, you're now a fairly good warrior. It can't be helped, your combat talent isn't particularly strong, and getting to this point is a real challenge. However, in April 16, at the third Duel City Tournament, Arthas finally achieved his dream of becoming the champion. When he received his reward: an Osiris Sky Dragon card, he burst into tears. So inspiring!

In May of 16, an unexpected event occurred. Due to the embezzlement of funds for Stormwind's reconstruction by Stormwind nobles, a riot broke out. Defias workers killed the queen and fled to a mine in Westfall, where they took up residence. Upon hearing the news, you, who were in Lakeside at the time, entered the mine without hesitation and easily defeated the bandits, led by Edwin VanCleef. Some of them surrendered, while others fled. (You obtained the dungeon summoning stone: The Deadmines.)
