the next day.
Lei Luo didn't see [Ant King] Lando again until the start of the mission, which made Lei Luo quite regretful.
For Lei Luo, this academician has a very special status.
As far as Lei Luo knows.
He used to be one of the closest friends with his mentor's mentor, that is, Gu Bo's mentor, and because of this relationship, when Gu Bo was promoted to the position of dean, he was also strongly recommended by this academician.
"never mind."
With a secret mission order, Lei Luo flew to the Immortal Fortress.
This is the most majestic fortress of the Grand Duchy for a long time, and it is also the forefront of the confrontation between the Grand Duchy and the Sealand Duchy.
Fortunately.
After Lei Luo fought for it, the mission transfer order has agreed to Lei Luo's request, and within 30 days, the [Nightmare Devourer] who broke into the Principality of Sealand will be brought back to the military headquarters to prepare for the final battle.
The round-trip journey, even at the fastest speed, would take about seven or eight days for Lei Luo, so the time that can be given to Lei Luo to operate is only half a month.
Seven days later.
When Lei Luo came to the Immortal Fortress.
I have to admit that compared to the Immortal Fortress, the Furnace Fortress is nothing more than that.
Just for the towers alone, there are actually three towers standing side by side in the Immortal Fortress!
"Academician Lei Luo!"
After announcing his identity, not long after, the old general came leading a group of generals, and the surrounding soldiers showed surprise expressions when they saw so many high-ranking generals coming out to greet him.
Among the generals, there were several scholar advisors.
When these people heard that the military department had sent this famous and legendary academician to the fortress, they all looked surprised and excited.
"Master, under the orders of His Majesty, came to garrison the Immortal Fortress?"
The old general was quite happy.
Lei Luo actually felt an aura similar to M from his body.
This is a strong man, the real strong man of the principality, the warrior's physique and courage can be cultivated to this level, even a grand duchy like Gran may find it difficult to find a second one. After the Dragon Warrior achieves the Legend of Heroes, establish a standard template for the temple to become a god.
"Hehe, Your Majesty believes that the generals will be able to protect the safety of the fortress. Those who are stationed in the Immortal Fortress will have someone else after a while. I am here for another task. This is a transfer order."
After being polite, Lei Luo handed over the order to the old general, and looked away at the three towers in the distance.
Not for a while.
The old general looked disappointed, and said regretfully: "Since this is the case, what needs does the master have, just ask the chief magician advisory group, and the fortress will definitely meet it with all its strength."
"good."
After Lei Luo responded, only a few high-level magician consultants from the fortress were left on the scene. It is not difficult to sense the faint threat from these people. These are obviously long-known extraordinary scholars.
"Master, please!"
Under the welcome of a few people, Lei Luo and the others casually chatted about the current situation of the Fortress Fortress, and then started to talk about business after arriving at a high-level tower of the fortress.
"About [Nightmare Devourer] Academician Youyan, is there any news about Immortal Fortress?"
Several people glanced at each other.
One of the female scholars, who was also the only female among the seven people present, blinked her cat-like gem-like eyes, and her complexion was a bit ugly.
"Three days ago, [Nightmare Devourer] Master Youyan was ordered by the King of Sealand to deliver it to the God of War Fortress, but the [Sandstorm Controller] who is stationed in the God of War Fortress this time is the one who inherited Gauss Adolf's natural laws. Members of the conservative faction are at odds with the radicals of [Bio-destroyer] Sicily, so [Nightmare Devourer] Master Youyan was detained in the Fortress of God of War, and the other party asked us to pay enough ransom to release him. A few days ago, the fortress sent [Night Watcher] Master Qiu to negotiate."
oh
Lei Luo said: "So, the original intention of the Principality of Sealand, at least Sicily, the [Biological Exterminator], agreed to release the people, but this [Sandstorm Controller] detained them privately?"
"That should be the case. As for whether the Principality of Sealand ordered it later, it's hard to say."
Another scholar consultant said: "Negotiation is inevitable, it's just a matter of price, otherwise the Principality of Sealand would not have detained academicians here."
After saying that, the white-bearded scholar hesitated, and couldn't help but said, "Master, what's the situation in the Dubite province? Even Academician Youyan was forced to flee to the Principality of Sealand?"
"rest assured."
Lei Luo said: "It's just that Master Youyan failed to go deep into the enemy's rear to assassinate and was chased by many ancient creatures. The main force of the Principality Legion is progressing quite smoothly, and has regained a lot of lost ground. It is heading towards the core area where the monsters invaded. I believe it will not happen. In a few months, good news will be received here."
Lei Luo's confident words made everyone present breathe a sigh of relief.
night time.
The [Night Watcher] Master Qiu, who was in charge of negotiating with the Fortress of God of War, returned to the Immortal Fortress. After learning that the person who came to the fortress to take charge of this mission was Academician Lei Luo, the Power of the Sun, he came immediately. Arrived at Lei Luo's room.
"How about Master Youyan?"
Lei Luo immediately asked with concern.
[Night Watchman] is an extraordinary scholar wearing a black cloak, wearing an X mask, revealing a pair of eyes.
"Academician Youyan is fine, but suffered some minor injuries. The Principality of Sealand did not embarrass the academician. [Sandstorm Controller] Master Luo Mi said that we need our Principality to pay 15 million gold coins before we are willing to release the master. "
"Fifteen million gold coins?"
Lei Luo frowned and muttered, this is not a small sum.
The Principality’s tax revenue is about one billion gold coins a year. In general, about 5% of the military investment is invested in the military field, which is 50 million gold coins. Even during the war, the investment is only about 200 million gold coins.
Now the Principality of Sealand has a mouthful of 15 million gold coins!
This is almost enough to build ten fully armed balloon airships.
Of course, no matter how much he paid, Lei Luo must rescue the [Nightmare Devourer], this is not a question of gold coins.
If because of these gold coins, the academician was left in the cold, and he was transferred to the Principality of Sealand, the loss to the Principality would not only be a matter of gold coins.
After thinking for a long time, Lei Luo suddenly raised his head and looked at [Night Watcher].
"Contact the Principality of Sealand [Sandstorm Controller] Master Romi. Two days later, I am willing to personally negotiate with him on [Nightmare Devourer] Master Nightmare."
"yes!"
After [Night Watcher] left, Lei Luo went straight to the intelligence department.
"Call out all the information about [Sandstorm Controller] Romy from the Principality of Sealand."
The action of the intelligence department was quite fast, and after a short while, the things Lei Luo needed were dispatched for Lei Luo to check carefully.
The God of War Fortress and the Immortal Fortress are both the largest fortresses in Sealand and the Grand Duchy.
The reason for this is not just because of the humans of the two countries, but because this is one of the famous dangerous places in the Land of Star Curtain, the Abyss of Death!
In the abyss of death, it was extremely cold.
It is said that at the deepest point, except for those few royal academicians of the natural law of Sealand who control the power of fire, and a few royal academicians of Evolution Upanishan with strong vitality, the rest will be difficult to advance due to the severe cold.
Lei Luo remembered that among the many S-level missions he had seen in the mercenary hall, there was a mission to go deep into the abyss of death to find ancient grinding bones. The reward was 6 million gold coins, plus a lifetime elder seat in the St. Yellow spring bird mount.
This shows how difficult the task is.
The value of the ancient magic bones taken out of this extremely cold death abyss, for some scholars who have mastered the power of ice, is probably not lower than some gem-level magic materials.
Terrible yes.
In the Abyss of Death, it is said that because of the special cold, in addition to the extremely terrifying ice creatures that evolved in the abyss, there are also some terrifying unknown creatures at the bottom. Even the pioneers of Antonio and Gauss Adolph were in danger of returning home. biology!
Gradually.
time flies.
When Lei Luo flipped through the information of [Sandstorm Controller] and saw a page, his eyes suddenly froze, revealing the color of thinking.
When this [Sandstorm Controller] was young, he had a bloodline. He was a very outstanding natural law scholar. A noteworthy one.
It proposes to stimulate the flames with severe cold, and weave the academic insights of natural laws in the subtleties.
It's just a pity.
After entering the abyss of death once, he never came out again, and a generation of talented scholars passed away.
Later, after [Sandstorm Controller] obtained the degree of Royal Academician of Sealand, he sought help from several famous fire scholars in the Principality of Sealand at all costs, but unfortunately they found nothing. Until the end, he was also disheartened, but every time So he applied to be stationed in the God of War Fortress to pay homage to his son.
"Maybe, you can try from this direction."
Rubbing his tired forehead, Lei Luo murmured.
