Lord of the People: My Talent is 100 Million Points Strong Chapter 785

Chapter 786

Until the evening, the surroundings of Lei Xiao and his party, covered in dust and dust, were already covered with snow-white frozen soil piled up with clods of mud.

The north wind roared like a dragon's roar, and as far as the eye could see, numerous snowflakes appeared and disappeared.

I saw that under the reflection of the setting sun, the continuous permafrost that has not melted all year round is covered with a layer of orange red, reflecting a little bit of orange fluorescence. Although the vegetation is sparse, it has a special style.

"Is this the northern border of the Cold Flame Kingdom? It really is completely different from the emerald green east."

While chasing the wind and electricity, Lei Xiao couldn't help sighing in his heart as he looked at the twilight around him.

Due to the complex terrain in the north, sometimes there are snow-capped mountains and snow-forest intertwined, and sometimes it is an endless snowfield.

So even though Ariel and Ersha, who knew Leng Yan's terrain well, led the way, Lei Xiao still chose the alternate way of short-distance teleportation and galloping.

In this way, not only can you appreciate the scenery of the northern border, but also observe this vast land more deeply, without spending too much magic power on the unfamiliar terrain. The future is uncertain, and it is very important to maintain the best combat effectiveness at all times.

In the process of going deep into the northern border, Lei Xiao mainly did two things.

The first thing to do is to inform the leaders, subordinates and General Bai Lao that the threat from the Holy Night has been temporarily lifted, so that all regions can safely recruit and produce troops to resist the coalition forces of the two princes.

The second thing is to learn more about the local conditions and customs of the northern region from Ariel's mouth. After all, this is a part of the Lengyan Kingdom, and it must be included in one's pocket.

"My lord, just like what I said just now, the vast northern region is almost three times the size of the eastern region, but there are still 30 major cities, and the population is not even as large as the eastern region."

Ariel's crisp voice reached Lei Xiao's ears through the words.

"As far as my subordinates know, among the thirty cities, only the ten cities that are closer to Leng Yan's hinterland have joined the camp of the eldest brother and the second brother respectively."

"As for the remaining 20 cities, they all maintain a neutral attitude. They don't have much contact with the third sister, and they don't get involved in the power disputes of the princes."

"As for the strength of troops, apart from the five legions commanded by my subordinate San Wangjie guarding the Buluo Fortress, there are about 15 other legions distributed in these 30 cities."

Hearing what Ariel said, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully: "No wonder your prince brothers are very afraid of the three princesses, this undoubtedly means that for them, there are about 15 legions. Uncertain factors hang over the northern region like a cloud."

"The Lord Lord's analysis is very thorough."

Ariel's helpless sigh came from the words: "Because of the current cold flames, the northern region alone is divided into four forces: the third sister, the neutral nobles, the traditional nobles and the new nobles. , it's really embarrassing.”

"It doesn't matter, the more forces there are on this frozen land, the easier it is to conquer one by one. If everything goes well, only your and my flag will be raised here in the future."

Lei Xiao narrowed his eyes slightly, staring at the boundless permafrost around him, smiled lightly and said.

"The subordinates will do their best to assist the lord!"

Ariel's excited and clear voice came to Lei Xiao's ears.

"You and I will move forward hand in hand, and it will be unstoppable."

Lei Xiao nodded in satisfaction, and then asked: "Ariel, this vast northern region was taken back by King Ni himself from the Pals Empire back then, right?"

"My lord, that's exactly it!"

Ariel's voice was filled with passion, and she immediately passed it on: "My father, the king, spent nearly five years successfully expelling the minions of the Pars Empire from the frozen land that the ancestor King Hero personally laid down. Annihilation on the soil, let this place return to the protection of the Lengyan royal family."

"The lord must have heard that more than a hundred years ago, when the Cold Flame Kingdom was at its weakest, the Pars Empire took advantage of the void and spread the flames of war and death mercilessly on this frozen land."

"They turned the people of the northern border into slaves, they turned the land of the northern border into scorched earth, they ran amok and tyrannical, and shrouded the shadow of tyranny on this land."

Speaking of this, Ariel's angry voice was filled with sincere admiration.

"However, the people in the northern border did not bow their heads and surrender. They held their heads high and were determined to fight to the end. They were never afraid of snow and wind, let alone the enemy's sharp knives and whips. Soil, that is also a mark of pride for the people of the northern border!"

"Despite their meager strength, the people of the northern border never chose to bow their heads, which made the Pars Empire never really own this land until the subordinate father led the army."

"At this point, the sick lion that sank in the snow has completely awakened, and it is replaced by the cold flame holy lion that makes opponents terrified."

"Under the overwhelming attack of the subordinate father, coupled with the assistance and guidance of the people in the north, the once mighty Pals Empire was defeated, and they paid the due price for their cruelty."

Hearing what Ariel said, Lei Xiao nodded thoughtfully and said, "From this point of view, the residents of the northern border are indeed extremely tenacious, which is admirable."

"That's right, my lord. It's a pity that although more than fifty years have passed, the northern region has recovered some vitality, but it is still the most barren area in Lengyan."

Ariel sighed softly, and said helplessly: "Even the elder brother and the second elder brother who are subordinates don't look down on this vast frozen land, and even dislike it very much."

"Things they don't like may become sharp knives that pierce their vitals."

Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows, and said with a faint smile: "Although the land in the northern border is barren, the people are tough. This is what I need most, and if this land really falls into my hands, it may not be the same. It's what it is today."

"That's true. Your lord has strong financial resources. As long as you integrate the resources in the east and the north, you can develop this frozen land at the fastest speed."

Ariel's voice of approval sounded, and she responded excitedly.

"By the way, the lord must have discovered that the ice-type energy particles in the northern region are extremely active, which not only enhances the power of ice-type spells, but also makes the ice-type magicians emerging in this land much higher than other areas."

"At the same time, it also directly aroused an interesting question that magic scholars have been arguing endlessly, that is, whether the northern border is cold because the ice energy particles are too rich, or the ice energy particles are too rich because of the cold."

Ariel's voice rang again with great interest: "I don't know what the lord thinks?"

"Is it similar to the philosophical question of which came first, the chicken or the egg? Interesting."

Lei Xiao felt the wind whistling past his ears, and slowly turned his gaze back.

After pondering for a moment, Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows and said, "Actually, I don't care whether it's cold first, or the ice-type energy particles are rich first."

"What I am concerned about is that behind the two, there must be a cause behind all of this, and that is the answer we need to explore. After all, this vast permafrost is unique, and geographical reasons can be excluded."

A hint of curiosity flickered in Lei Xiao's eyes, and he continued: "It is possible to keep this vast world from freezing and raining all year round, and the ice will not melt. Just thinking about it is enough to make people extremely curious."

"Look at the essence through the phenomenon? The words of the lord always make people suddenly enlightened."

Ariel's deep voice came to Lei Xiao's ears: "In the borders of the human nations, only the northern border of the Lengyan Kingdom and the southern part of the Pars Empire are always cold, except for the fact that the ice energy particles are rich. Beyond the surface, no one has ever been able to find the real cause."

Speaking of this, Ariel's voice was a little more excited, and she said: "My lord, the silver snow city is ahead, and the silver snow city is located in the center of the northern border. It's only half the way."

"So, have we penetrated deep into the hinterland of the North?"

While the purple magic wings were flapping, Lei Xiao nodded silently and looked to the left and right.

Unknowingly, the silver-white snowflakes floating in the sky were already as dense as goose feathers, fluttering and continuously falling on the ground.

The permafrost mixed with mud clods has also been completely covered by thick snow, and everything that can be seen is orange-red and silver-white.

Taking advantage of the last rays of the setting sun, Lei Xiao moved his dark eyes and looked forward, only to see a majestic large city standing far above the snow field.

Inside the towering city walls illuminated by orange-red radiance, wisps of cooking smoke rose, and the light of magic neon loomed, making it look like a feast for the eyes.

"I seem to be able to smell the rice coming from there."

Looking at the increasingly clear city ahead, Lei Xiao nodded slightly.

"My lord, Silver Snow City has a large airport and is the most important commercial city in the northern region. That's why it is so prosperous. However, under such continuous snowstorms, other cities further north will suffer unspeakably."

Ariel's worried voice rang out, "The land in the northern border is barren, and there are only a few crops that can be planted, and now it's time for the autumn harvest, but it is hit by such bad weather, the result is self-evident .”

"That's an important reason why we came all the way here, isn't it?"

Lei Xiao raised his eyebrows, and responded: "The airship and carriages in Fanyin City have already been prepared. As long as we successfully form an alliance with the third princess and open up the food channel, the food will naturally be delivered continuously."

As discussed with his subordinates before, Lei Xiao understood clearly.

Needless to say, land transportation must pass through the boundaries controlled by the traditional aristocrats and new aristocrats before they can reach the hinterland of the northern border smoothly, and the same is true for airships.

Although the airship is extremely convenient and much faster than land transportation, it is like a steam engine and requires a large amount of special magic mineral crystals to continue flying.

This means that it is also necessary to resupply in the other city on the way to be able to cross such a vast area.

In addition to consuming special magic mineral crystals, the airship can also be directly powered by magic light crystals or magic powerhouses.

However, because the magic power required by the airship is too large, it is difficult to realize these two points in batches.

"I hope everything goes well. After all, my subordinates haven't seen Sister Wang for two years."

Ariel's extremely uncertain voice came to Lei Xiao's ears: "Especially when the four generals of the kingdom are all on the battlefield and the 300,000 troops are about to approach the city, Sister Wang, who must have been neutral all the time, will not Take the risk lightly, after all, there is still the Pars Empire in the north that is trying to make a comeback."

"Even if the hope is slim, I have to try my best, because I have no way out."

In Lei Xiao's gaze, there was a bit more firmness and determination, and those piercing black eyes seemed to be able to enclose the entire earth.

After a pause, Lei Xiao's face showed curiosity again, and he asked, "Ariel, what kind of person is your sister Wang?"

"My lord, this question is really difficult to answer."

Ariel, who was following closely beside Lei Xiao, was silent for a while, and then a helpless smile appeared on her fair face: "It's not so much about what kind of person my subordinate's sister Wang is, but what kind of person my subordinate is." Sister Wang is an unfathomable alien."

"From the memory of my subordinates, the place where I can find Miss Wang is not only the training ground of the battle maids, but also the various weapons and equipment warehouses of the royal family."

"Sister Wang doesn't like complicated etiquette, and she doesn't want to be an elegant lady. She just thinks about sword skills and fighting, like a lion cub whose mane has not yet grown. The subordinate's father also has nothing to do with Sister Wang, so he can only let her turn the training ground upside down."

"Of course, correspondingly, Sister Wang's cultivation talent is excellent. She not only has a fanatical interest in sword skills, but also works extremely hard, so that my father has to admit that Sister Wang has inherited the bravery and strength of the ancestor King Hero. unyielding."

"But Miss Wang is the princess that everyone is looking at after all. She is the eldest lady among the eldest ladies. Every word and deed will affect other noble ladies. This has caused many nobles to complain and complain to their father and king. Their daughters have also started to follow suit. , even using staffs to fight each other, leaving elegance and etiquette completely behind."

Hearing what Ariel said, Lei Xiao smiled helplessly, and said, "This ridiculous situation~www.mtlnovel.com~ won't gradually get better until you start to emerge, right?"

"That's right, my lord, even though my subordinates have also imitated Sister Wang for a while, knocking the magic teacher's head with a staff, reciting spells in leather armor, but after all, they still couldn't resist the temptation of delicious cakes and beautiful skirts, and returned to the world. Time for lessons on ladyhood and manners."

Ariel blinked her slender eyelashes and smiled sheepishly.

"However, my subordinate Wang Jie really takes good care of her subordinates. Not only does she often tell her subordinates the anecdotes she heard from the fighting maids, but she also often brings all kinds of delicious pastries and biscuits to her subordinates until Wang My sister started to practice on the battlefield, so we get together less and leave more."

"In recent years, even if Sister Wang occasionally returns to the capital, she no longer comes to look for her subordinates."

As she spoke, Ariel's crisp voice began to lose its voice: "Perhaps Sister Wang doesn't like the more willful subordinates, so she deliberately alienates them."

"Maybe that's not the case."

Lei Xiao pondered for a moment, then spoke.
