Hao Ren noticed that there was something wrong with the negotiations between Kam and the defenders. The broken sword knight who was very confident along the way walked back with a slight blow, which made him unable to bear it. Question: "Having a problem?"
"Something unexpected," Cam shook his head and told the soldiers what he told him. "... This is different from the plan I knew when I set off. Her Royal Highness the Princess and the Northern Grand Duke advanced their advance plans. , And more than a little bit ahead of time-in this way, the sword-sword knight and the rebel army that came from other parts of the empire will likely be disconnected from the front line offensive. "
Kem has a confused expression on his face. Obviously he does not know why Princess Constance launched the attack so urgently.
"It seems that the princess under the princess is not very optimistic about the situation," Vivian smelled a bad breath from this incident for the first time, "It is a big warrior to launch an attack in advance under insufficient preparation. Bogey, there is only one possibility for her to do so, that is the situation forced ... "
"Aren't we going into the city?" Lily blinked his eyes at Hao Ren and then looked at Frost Snow City. "Did you just go back and chase that princess?"
"The Advanced City takes a whole night off." Hao Ren patted Lily on the head, letting the Husky girl get rid of the idea of rushing into the snowfield and running for hundreds of miles to the front line-although he also understands the guy from the sled dog The excitement of seeing the ice and snow, but not all the ice and snowmen in her team, Charlemagne and others are flesh and ordinary people. They followed the team from the south of the empire, and they went through the barriers again. It was through the black pine forest and was bombarded all the way by ancient weapons with air bombs. It was already exhausted. At this time, they were dragging them on the snowfield for hundreds of miles to the front line, and the steel macho had to kneel ...
And Hao Ren does plan to take a break in the city himself. Not only does this experience make him a little tired, but more importantly, a lot of the information he just collected needs to be quieted down and sorted out, and at this distance Gorgon In the nearest place of the abyss, he was also curious whether there would be any clues in Frost Snow City.
Kem also nodded: "This is the best. I heard that there is a snowstorm tonight. Although our car is protected, there may still be wandering monsters from the north in the snowstorm. It is really not a good idea to continue on the road."
Vivian asked curiously: "Do we have a place in the city?"
Kem said with a knightly manner: "The sword-sword knight has a station in Frost Snow City, but if His Highness Charlemagne and Avena are willing, I can arrange to lead you to a post specially prepared for important envoys. -It will be more comfortable there. "
Charlie Man nodded: "Then trouble you-we have come to the land of His Highness Constantine, I believe that my sister and I are safe here."
So under the guidance of Keim, the active sword-sword knight, Hao Ren and his party finally entered the largest fortress in the north, Frost Snow City.
After passing through the entrance of the fortress that is extremely thick and composed of a large number of enchanted stone bricks and defense machinery, the real appearance of Frost Snow City is in front of everyone. The layers of thick walls are like a protective shell covering the exterior of this "mountain city", but the fortress will not be dulled by the walls, on the multi-layered walls There are a large number of ice-like crystal clusters arranged in a delicate array, and the outside sunlight is introduced into the first floor of the city. On the first floor of the mountain, you can see more crystal clusters growing along the building. ——These crystal clusters extend all the way to the hollowed-out mountain, and lead the light outside again ...
And the whole city of Frost and Snow shines in the light miracle outlined by ice crystals.
Due to the special "Dwelling on the Mountain, Building on the Mountain" structure of Frost Snow City, the city can be said to be three-dimensionally arranged, and the post house prepared for important envoys is located near the lord ’s castle, which is near the mountain top , With a height difference of several thousand meters from the residential area below-but visitors do not need to struggle to climb up the winding stone stairs between the buildings, because there are as many as one hundred in the mountain The twenty-two lifts operate around the clock, just like the public transportation system, providing convenience for people living in this city.
Hao Ren and his party packed up the vehicle again, and accompanied by Cam and several soldiers from the northern border, they crossed the traffic area at the bottom of the city and entered a lift that was hidden in the mountain and circulated along a sloped ramp. With a slight mechanical friction sound, the large-scale lifting platform began to accelerate steadily and moved toward the top of the mountain.
"This platform is specially prepared for guests who need to visit the top of the mountain. It will not stop in the middle and it is twice as fast as other platforms," a soldier in charge of the north border introduced this proudly. City, "You can see a transparent passage in the middle, which is built with ice blocks with permafrost effect, don't worry about falling, and you can see the inner city inside the mountain through it."
The platform runs briskly in the inclined elevator channel, and every other time there will be a light source passing by. It is a crystal cluster buried in the mountain, and the outside sunlight is sent into the city through the crystal cluster, just like Natural lamps are average. Not long after walking, Hao Ren saw the "transparent channel".
It is like a glass tube specially reserved for tourists. Through the crystal clear ice wall, Hao Ren saw the inner city of Frost Snow City. He saw a large number of buildings arranged in an orderly manner in the mountain. Among them, there are many facilities like factories, but probably because the army has already started, the inner city is not as lively as imagined, but it has a sense of indifference: after all, every city in the northern border is first a military fortress The existence of the identity of the city naturally slowed down after a large number of soldiers were transferred.
Suddenly, Hao Ren ’s attention was attracted by a particularly striking building in the inner city: it was a large building standing in the center of the mountain cavity, which was built with black stones and had a neat, as if long The main tower of the spear-like tower is a three-story palace.
The palace is obviously out of step with the surrounding buildings. It is surrounded by a circle. Not only is there a circle of walls around, but you can also see soldiers patrolling and guarding. If you do n’t know that the castle of the Northern Grand Duke is on the top of the mountain, Hao Ren I almost thought that the palace in the heart of the mountain was the residence of the lord of Frost Snow City.
"What's that?" Lily also saw the black palace sharply and asked with curiosity.
"Ah, that's the old palace," Cam replied casually, "Your emperor lived there thousands of years ago."
Although he was already on the side of the "rebels", when Cam mentioned the words "His Majesty the Emperor", he was not unnatural, even with a slight respect in the tone, and the surrounding northern border The soldiers did not show any strange behavior, which made Hao Ren couldn't help but look at him a few more times.
"Old Palace?" Lily ’s curiosity is even better. "Wait ... you said that the Dragong Empire moved to the capital, the old capital is in the north, so say ..."
"Don't you even know this?" The accompanying soldiers from the northern border glanced at Lily with some surprise. "Frost Snow City is the old capital of the empire-but that was something that happened thousands of years ago."
"They don't know much about the history of the Dragon Empire," Cam took the conversation and turned the topic away. "In fact, most parts of the city have been remodeled now, completely in the way of the fortress. The second construction has been completely different from the old city of that year. Of course, the old palace you saw still retains its original appearance, and there are several commemorative places that also maintain the old city era, if you are interested. , I can take you to visit these places tomorrow-in addition to not being able to enter the palace, many places are open to the outside world. "
Hao Ren looked at the old palace that was about to leave his sights and whispered: "Thousands of years of history ... it can still stand intact, really interesting."
The sound of ASanbaA sounded in his mind: "More interestingly, there are some faint energy pulses released under the old palace, and its energy sample is quite complicated."
Hao Ren slightly nodded and replied in his mind: "This city is worth exploring."
Then he quickly added another sentence: "I'm talking about the kind that won't explode!"
ASanbaA: "... then what, this machine hasn't said anything ..."
Hao Ren: "..."
With the introduction of Cam, and the "identity certificate" brought by Charlemagne and Avenna, the stay of the group in Frost Snow City was very smooth.
In fact, Hao Ren did n’t even care how Kem and Charlemagne negotiated with the interim chief in the city. He just looked forward to settling in the post and starting his own investigation.
Before nightfall, the people finally moved into the warm inn near the Lord ’s Castle and ate a sumptuous meal in the warm fireplace hall.
It can be said that since entering the world, Hao Ren and his party were eating their first meal in a stable environment.
If it were n’t for Vivian and Hao Ren, Lily almost ate the table ...
After dinner, people who were physically and mentally exhausted naturally did not participate in the interest of visiting activities. Hao Ren also returned to the room arranged for themselves after saying good night to other people.
The hilltop platform where the post is located is not blocked by the city walls. The cold night sprinkles into the house through the wide floor-to-ceiling windows. The fire-like red light of the Gorgon Abyss is also mixed in this night, as if the blood is diffuse. .
The city has quieted down, but the wind from the plain is gradually strengthening and roaring across the world, and in the wind, the shadow of the snowstorm can be seen.
Hao Ren knocked on the shell of ASanbaA: "Synchronized vision, you help me stare around."
ASanbaA flickered, and then Hao Ren felt a flower in front of him, and his field of vision suddenly switched.
A world full of thunder and flames appeared before him.
The field of vision comes from Probe No. 3, the current position, the area outside the Gorgon Abyss.
The first thing that appeared in front of Hao Ren was the wreckage of an extremely huge starship. The wreckage had striking text:
Revelation number.
