Accompanied by the heavy snowfall, Princess Luo Jie'an wrapped her windbreaker tightly around her body. Accompanied by Shumu Suzaku and Claferrig, Princess Luo Jie'an crossed the valley where she had fought not long ago and arrived outside the valley. In the forest not far away, some crystal clear crystal pillars were standing strangely in the snow-covered forest, as if they were growing from the ground like plants.
When she saw these crystal pillars, Princess Luo Jie'an ran forward regardless of the cold wind and snow. When she walked to the crystal pillars, even though she was told the truth in advance, the little princess was still surprised and covered her mouth and tried hard. Let yourself scream out, human bodies are solidified in the translucent crystal pillars, their expressions are frozen forever on their faces, pain, fear, anger, sadness! There seems to be an indestructible soul suffering eternal suffering in each crystal column.
"Master Gretel!" Luo Jie'an couldn't help but exclaimed when she saw the familiar face in the icicle.
The mage closed his eyes tightly with an expression of realization on his face, and his body was frozen by thick ice crystals, standing in place like a sculpture. Princess Luo Jie'an looked sadly at the magician who was frozen in the ice crystals. All she could touch with her hands were cold ice crystals. She clenched her fists tightly and knocked the ice crystals hard. She was covered by the dragon's blood. The eroded body has the power of breaking stones with bare hands, but even though blood is oozing from both fists at this moment, the ice crystal pillar that seals Gretel is not damaged at all.
Shumu Zhuque stepped forward and grabbed Princess Luo Jie'an and said loudly: "Stop quickly or you will get hurt."
The power of Shumu Suzaku, who had been transformed into white dragon blood, was far superior to that of Princess Luo Jie'an, who only inherited the thin dragon blood. With a gentle squeeze, Luo Jie'an could no longer move at all, and the little princess shed half a tear. Kneeling on the ground.
"Please┉┉" Princess Luo Jie'an murmured to herself as if she was lost.
"What?"
Both Kraferig and Shumu Suzaku looked at Luo Jie'an strangely. They saw the little princess throwing herself on the ice crystals and saying in pain: "Please, Lord Suzaku... please let everyone go."
Shumu Zhuque sighed and shook his head helplessly and said: "We cannot release them without His Majesty Yalin's consent."
"Please┉┉" Princess Luo Jie'an leaned her head on the ice crystal and said still unwilling to give up.
"I'm sorry, these ice crystal pillars may be difficult to destroy even with our power. Unless you can obtain His Majesty Yalin's consent, there is nothing we can do."
Claferrig said standing aside. "Don't worry, these people are not dead yet."
"I ┉ ┉ know" Luo Jie'an raised her head and gently touched the ice crystal pillar with her hand. The body that was eroded and changed by the dragon's blood had far sharper insights than humans. Through the icicle, Princess Luo Jie'an could Feeling the mage Gretel in the icicle, her fire of life is still burning, and her soul has not left her body and returned to the sea of souls.
The blood of the white dragon made Princess Luo Jie'an subconsciously consider Yalin her master, but the memory of being the princess of the Kingdom of Saxony made her unable to forget her subjects. After waking up and regaining her strength, the first thing Princess Luo Jie'an did was to ask Yalin, hoping to know the fate of Gretel and the members of the investigation team who came to the Yanold Mountains.
Princess Luo Jie'an, who was originally prepared for the worst, was pleasantly surprised when she received the answer and found out that none of the members of the investigation team were dead. Yalin originally did not want Princess Luo Jie'an to be too consciously biased towards the status of a princess of the Kingdom of Saxony. The best thing is to retain the memory of being the princess of the Kingdom of Saxony, but to be more on your own side. Therefore, she has not been allowed to visit the 'captured' soldiers. Even if Yalin knew that Luo Jie'an was seeing these prisoners, it was impossible to talk to them.
But what he didn't expect was that Princess Luo Jie'an's longing for her was stronger than expected. After the little princess's pleading, Yalin finally couldn't bear to continue looking at Luo Jie'an's sad and worried expression, and agreed. Ask her to meet the members of the investigation team who were frozen and placed in the forest.
After Princess Luo Jie'an wakes up, Yalin is not prepared to let her live alone in the Frost Wing Hall like he did with Elojiel. After all, Princess Luo Jie'an, who has integrated into the white dragon's consciousness, is more loyal to him and her stance. , and the most important thing is that this loyalty is sincere and not due to agreement or coercion. Considering that Princess Luo Jie'an will become an important chess piece in communicating with the Kingdom of Saxony in the future, it is necessary to let her know a little bit about the strength of the territory.
Since Yalin has decided to shape himself into a powerful, terrifying and mysterious existence, he needs some pomp and circumstance to maintain his mysterious posture. Shumu Suzaku, who was converted into a white dragon bloodline, was happily adopted by Yalin. The main job of appointing him as his bodyguard is to convey his orders and will to those who may come to Ulduar City in the future, and Princess Luo Jie'an is his first 'guest' after taking on this job.
Zhumu Zhuque pulled up Princess Luo Jie'an and said, "Since we have seen it, let's go back."
┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉┉
"The operation begins to inject magic power into the magic crystal."
Yalin stood in front of the portal and directed the frost and snow elf mages to start injecting the reserved magic power into the magic crystal of the portal. This huge portal is connected to the elf settlement in the forest outside the mountains. With the magic power A white light curtain was opened in the center of the ascension portal, and the cold wind and snow blew through the light curtain into the warm material hall.
An elf mage slowly walked into the light curtain. Under the expectation of everyone, the elf mage returned to the hall and said respectfully: "Master! It has been confirmed that there is no problem. The connection between the two portals is very stable."
"Very good!" Yalin nodded with satisfaction, and the next thing was for the elves to direct the frost goblins to carry various supplies.
After the portal established in the center of the elf town was put into use, it greatly saved the time required to transport materials, and also facilitated future personnel and information exchanges. It's just that the portal can only be activated unilaterally, and the high elves cannot come to Ulduar City through the portal. However, these high elves living in the settlement today will attract a group of special companions.
"They are elves who fled here just like you."
The high elves gathered in the center of the town looked at the compatriots led here by the silver-haired elves in surprise. In appearance, these new compatriots were indeed elves, but their inner feelings made the fleeing high elves feel a little strange. There are always some among these new elves who exude the aura of magic unconsciously. After the frost and snow elves explained the matter, they left on their own, leaving this elves team of about forty or fifty in place. After a brief surprise, the high elves still showed joy in meeting their compatriots. Many elves quickly brought food from home and delivered it to the compatriots who had fled here together.
"It's really nice. I didn't expect to see our compatriots here." The new escapees who received the food said gratefully.
"Did you also flee here?" the high elves asked with concern after settling their compatriots.
"Yes! We escaped from the area south of the Free City."
"Being able to escape here must be more difficult than the journey on the road?"
The new fleeing elf nodded and sighed: "Yes! We sacrificed many companions to get here┉┉But why are you in this forest again?"
"We┉┉" the high elves smiled helplessly and said: "Actually, we also escaped from the Kingdom of Karut. As for why we live here, it's hard to explain┉┉"
In Ulduar City, Yalin was observing the situation of the blood elves getting along with the fleeing high elves, yes! These so-called new fugitive elves are all high elves exchanged by Yalin through the system, and a few of them are blood elves who are the best at arcane magic in the online game "World of Warcraft". In order to keep them at first, Yalin did promise that Elojiel would not take the initiative to order these fugitive elves to do anything. But since these elves want to live in this territory, sooner or later they must be fully integrated into it so that they can truly Become a loyal citizen and believer.
But just because Yalin himself made a promise at the beginning, it may not be easy to interfere with the positions and tendencies of these elves in the future, and as the King of the White Dragon, Yalin is really not good at going back on his word. In this case It violates the principle of establishing a powerful and mysterious image. Since he cannot personally give orders, he needs a team of agents to help him influence the stance of these fugitive elves. Therefore, the best choice is to take in these elves and let the high elves unlocked by the summoning system. Let these high elves who are exactly the same in appearance but 100% loyal to themselves in their hearts mix into these fugitive elves, and slowly adjust these fugitives. The elves' position tendency allowed them to integrate into the territory as quickly as possible. This was Yalin's plan.
Taking in these elves not only successfully unlocked the summoning of high elves on the system, but also specially unlocked the blood elves in "World of Warcraft". These blood elves are almost indistinguishable from high elves in appearance. In order to understand the game, Yalin The gap between the strength of the blood elves and the native elves in this world also led to the exchange of several expensive blood elf mages and warlocks to mix in.
========================
The eastern region of the mainland, Hordaland County, is located within the Kingdom of Karut. Due to its special geographical location, the border intersects with the rising power of the Kalsemmen Empire, and the long-standing nation of Creses, which was founded at the end of the era of overlord Garserik. Between the kingdoms, coupled with the water transportation advantages brought by the longest river that runs through the entire continent, Hordaland County has always been an important commercial city of the Karut Kingdom. Its prosperity and trade volume are second only to the largest in the mainland. The city of commerce and freedom.
Airship! As the crystallization of a mixture of magic and technology, it has always been an important means of transportation for the landlocked country.
Compared with transportation by horse-drawn carriages and ships, airships flying in the sky can avoid the threats posed by bandits and horse thieves on land as well as water thieves entrenched in dangerous river sections. However, airships also have limited transport capacity and load capacity. The reason is that it is only suitable for transporting people and a small amount of materials, and its construction and operating costs cannot be widely used. For civilians, this kind of transportation will only be used in emergencies. On the contrary, it is not suitable for wealthy businessmen and dignitaries. To the nobles, this is just like an ordinary carriage traveling.
A huge, luxuriously decorated airship approached the docking platform on the ground. Many of the sharp-eyed passengers recognized this airship as the Sky Charm, a tourist airship jointly built by the Karut Kingdom and Free City. The entire airship can be said to be a small city, with 16 passenger cabins and 2,700 cabins, which can accommodate 4,300 passengers and 1,300 crew members. The entire skyboat is equipped with all entertainment facilities including shopping malls, wine, banquets and dance halls, heated swimming pools, and two luxury casinos. There is even an opera house in the middle of the skyboat that can accommodate 1,000 people, allowing passengers to enjoy it at any time even at high altitudes. Wonderful musicals and aerial acrobatics.
Countless people on the ground watched with envy as this huge mountain-like airship gradually docked on the ground. Many people were speculating on the people who could take the luxury cabin of this airship. You must know that even if the ticket for the Sky Charm is Even the worst lower class cabin costs 24,000 Lien, which is the amount of money an ordinary craftsman can earn by working without food or water for two years. Those who have the opportunity to fly in the luxury cabin are definitely well-known throughout the continent!
"Dear passengers! Thank you for taking the Sky Charm airship. The ship has now arrived at its destination┉┉┉┉"
Following the announcement from the airship, the ground crew hurriedly set up a corridor to welcome the passengers in the luxury cabin. No matter where they are, it is still the rule of the entire world to divide people into equal parts. Enjoy more privileges than ordinary people, even if you have to step out of the cabin before others.
The airship dispatch center has dispatched a team of maids composed of the most beautiful girls selected from Hordaland County to stand respectfully on both sides of the corridor. Each girl has her best posture and smile to welcome the arrival of the luxury cabin guests. These There are many daughters of minor aristocrats among the maids. These noble aristocratic ladies who are usually pampered can serve as maids. This is because the status of passengers traveling in the luxury cabin is too noble. There have been many beautiful women in recent years. The girl is lucky enough to be favored by the VIPs flying in the luxury cabin. Even if she just becomes the concubine of these noble people, it is a great opportunity for ordinary civilian women or the daughters of some small nobles to fly on the branches and become a phoenix.
The cabin door slowly opened, and the passengers separated by layers of guards stretched their heads desperately to see the identities of the luxury cabin guests. When the first guest stepped out of the cabin door, the maids on both sides greeted him. He hurriedly bent down and said respectfully in a sweet voice: "Welcome to Huo┉┉"
However, halfway through the words, the maids collectively became silent! The onlookers who were still noisy in the distance took a sharp breath and became silent, and the reason for all this was the absolute shock brought by the big man who walked out of the luxury cabin door!
