Chapter 317 Gift (4000)
After lunch, Panier ordered the food to be removed and a magic chess board brought in, and he also asked his personal guards to come in and watch.
Snow Princess Emma Lubeli, as a former extraordinary third-level powerhouse, naturally has her unique understanding of the understanding and operation of spells. The mysterious Bone Crusher Mage's strength shown last night has reached the second level of Extraordinary, and he is also a powerful spell caster.
And one of them is of the ice type, the other is of the fire type, and their elements restrain each other. Anyone who knows magic can benefit from watching such a magic confrontation.
With Paniel sitting next to him with rapt attention, this is a good opportunity to understand the advantages and disadvantages of the real Northern Lights.
Players place their respective chess pieces on the chessboard. The center of the bottom line is the "magic core". If you defeat the opponent's magic core, you will win. Other chess pieces are divided into shield, auxiliary, attack, and free chess. All chess pieces have a layer of basic attribute enchantment at the beginning.
Different chess pieces have different activity ranges and walking distances. Each round, players can enchant up to one chess piece.
In the first round, Helot went first with the white chess piece. He first enchanted his magic core with the fire element. It is the etiquette of magic chess not to attack in the first round. At the same time, magic core enchantment can form a weak advantage of the same attribute in the area controlled by oneself.
The flames rose from the Demon Core Chess and spread forward until it covered half of the chessboard.
Princess Emmalu Bailey also enchanted her own magic core. The power of ice and fire collided at the boundary, and the fierce energy collision made a "crackling" sound.
Helot then launched a fierce offensive against Princess Emmalu Bailey's control area in an attacking posture, fully displaying the aggressive characteristics of fire-attribute magic.
Emma Lubeli defended steadily, setting traps to compete with her chess skills.
When different chess pieces come together, the magic contained in them explodes. One after another, the chess pieces are shattered in such a confrontation...
The onlookers are all silent, watching the chessboard immersedly. Spell attack and defense.
It’s just that they saw that it was a contest of magic skills between the two sides, and Helot and Emma Lubeli had a tacit understanding cultivated by the two, using the movement of the chess pieces and spells combined with secret codes to carry out a silent battle. comminicate.
"How is your body now?"
"The injury has been suppressed, but the energy cannot be released excessively."
"I am researching bloodlines and have made a very important discovery. Maybe I can find The way to truly restore you. But this research requires your blood, a lot of blood..."
"I'll give it to you!"
"One more thing, the Scovo family. There are signs of rebellion. I don’t have any solid evidence yet, but I’m collecting it.”
"How is this possible? The Scovo family has always been loyal to the Erwin family."
"Maybe I'm overthinking it. Those things may have been done secretly under the instruction of your father. In short, you don't want to Trust the Scovo family too much and wait for the results of my investigation."
"I listen to you. I don't want to marry Panier. You must take me away."
" I will take you away. The 13th Investigation Team cannot operate without Commander Melis."
"Thank you, team leader... I will let you win this round."
"There is no need to give in, I can win with my strength."
"Really? I can give my best!"
"Okay! It just so happens that I also have reservations!"< br>
After repeated pulling and testing at the beginning, both sides of the chess game "unintentionally" launched a decisive battle. The confrontation on the chessboard became fierce in an instant, and the magic confrontation was dizzying for those watching.
In the end, Helot won the game with a roundabout free chess attack that destroyed the black chess's magic core.
Also received a round of applause.
The applause then ended abruptly with the sound of Princess Emmalu Bailey slamming the table.
The princess said angrily: "I was careless in this game, otherwise your free chess piece would not have been able to break through my defense. If we play another game, I will definitely beat you."
Pa Neil immediately stopped him, and he said to Emmalu Bailey with concern: "Your Highness, your body has just recovered and you cannot consume too much magic power. Before our wedding, the Bone Crusher Mage will stay in the castle and play a game of chess. You can wait until your magic power is restored before proceeding."
Helot is also worried about Emma Lubeli's health: "Her Royal Highness's chess skills made me feel the threat of the Polar Plateau. This time I won the game. There is an element of luck. I will stay in the snow castle and play chess at any time when His Highness calls me. This is my best preparation before setting foot on the polar plateau.”
"Okay! After dinner, you and I will play another game." Emmalu Bailey made an appointment with Helot, and then said to Panier: "Playing chess is probably the best entertainment to kill time. You also need to practice. Chess skills, these can help me get through this long year..."
Pannier has never defeated Emma Lubeli on the chessboard since he was a child. He couldn't help but smile awkwardly: "I will definitely know more. Practice."
"I'm going back to my room to rest. Although the stove is burning, it's still a little cold.
See you at dinner, Bonebreaker!"
Helot Station. Get up and salute: "See you at dinner, Your Royal Highness!"
Princess Emmalu Bailey left, and the other staff also walked out of the restaurant knowingly. The servant brought two cups of tea to Panier and Helot and then left.
Now Paniel has determined that the minimum strength of the mage in front of him is extraordinary level three.
Because the magic pressure last night has proved that he has a very deep reserve of magic energy. Just being able to win against a genius like Princess Emmalu Bailey in a game of magic chess is enough even if there is some luck involved. It shows the solid magic skills and superb magic application skills.
When an extraordinary second-level or even third-level mage is placed in an army, his role is not just a spell turret. Its value to the overall improvement of the army's strength is much higher than the value of a single mage.
Although the Scovo family also has the blood of the Northern Lights, it is a weakened version, and its control over ice and snow is far inferior to that of the Erwin family.
Innate disadvantages need to be compensated for by acquired factors.
"Bonebreaker Mage, I know that you aim to be loyal to the Ice and Snow Family, but I still hope that you will give the Skowo Family a chance, which means giving me a chance." Panier said sincerely: "With me, you don't need to hunt cold monsters to prove your strength. I can directly give you honor and wealth."
Panil is eager for talents.
Hilot was unmoved: "Master Panier, thank you for your appreciation of me. But going deep into the polar regions to hunt the cold demon is a test I gave myself. I want to find the warmest warmth in the coldest place. The fire cannot be achieved in one polar adventure. I am ready to spend twenty or thirty years training myself.
The support that the Erwin family can give me cannot be given by the Scovo family. ”
Panil understood...
The Erwin family is aloof, they hold the coldest power and fight against the cold demon at all times.
The Scovo family is sheltered in Snow City by the Erwin family, and has no strength or value in the eyes of the other party.
It's like the contrast between ice and snow.
"Bone Crusher Mage, I will make you change your view of the Skovo family." Panier's words seemed to have something to say.
Herot chuckled and said: "I hope you are right. When will the wedding between you and Her Royal Highness the Princess be held? I don't want to take too long."
"Soon, the wedding will be held in three days! ”
Three days?
So fast!
Time is a little tight... "I will wait for three days." Helot stood up: "After lunch, I will go back to my residence to meditate. Thank you for your hospitality."
Panil said: "The barracks are too simple. I have arranged a room for you in the main castle."
Helot refused and said: "No matter how simple the barracks are, It's better than camping on the ice sheet. Living too comfortably will weaken my willpower. If you really want to take care of me, Master Panier, please don't let the man in the white cloak follow me. I have done it several times. I want to kill him!”
The snow monster that was sent had been discovered a long time ago. Panier smiled awkwardly: “I’m just worried about your safety. You are so powerful, Bonebreaker. There is no need for an escort. I will let him leave immediately and promise not to send anyone else."
"Very good! If I find someone following me next time, I can just kill him?"
< br>
Panil smiled awkwardly again: "Of course!"
"Goodbye, Master Panil."
"Goodbye, Bone Crusher Mage."
Hailuo Te left the main castle and returned to his simple barracks. The slave York Red was squatting in the snow outside the door.
Three days later, the wedding took place.
But some kind of intuition in Helot reminded him that this wedding was definitely not as simple as imagined.
Ensure Melis' safety first, and then consider other things...
Talk to her in detail during dinner and chess.
Helot sat on the straw bed and meditated.
I don’t know how much time passed, but there was a slight sound on the door, and a bat got in through the crack of the door.
Then it becomes Bressini.
“Master, I found the Tribulus Wild Boar Village. I also found that they not only guarded a glacial lake, but also guarded a cave leading to the earth’s fire magma.”
Helot opened his eyes. Open your eyes: "Are you sure it leads to the Earth Fire Magma?"
"Sure! I followed a group of Northern Xinjiang people into the cave and saw the Earth Fire Magma. There were many slaves caught in the Tribulus Wild Boar Village. They mined ore with a group of chained armored bears.”
Breshni gained a lot from this investigation!
It's just that Tribulus Wild Boar Village captures northern Xinjiang people as slaves, but what are they doing enslaving armored bears? Putting chains on the armored bears means that these armored bears have not been surrendered. The robbers in Tribulus Boar Village did not defeat the armored bears one on one.
Neither the Armored Bear Clan nor the Snow Duke will allow this to happen.
What does Tribulus Wild Boar Village want to do?
What do they do mining ores?
“Braceny!”
"Master, what do you want me to do?"
"Continue to investigate the Tribulus Wild Boar Village and the underground fire magma to see where the ore is being transported and what these bandits are doing."
"Yes, Master."
Breshni turned into a bat and slipped out of the gap in the door.
Helot opened the door and it was already dark outside.
Being close to the pole, night comes early!
Remembering the agreement with Melis, Herot kicked York Red and walked towards the main castle on the snow.
Waiting for York Red to catch up, Herot asked: "Have many villages been attacked by bandits in recent years?"
"Many!" York Red replied angrily: "In our case Before our village was attacked, many villages near us were attacked.”
“Are there no villages to defend?”
York Hong said helplessly: "Some villages have fought off bandits, but more bandits will come soon."
Helot gave York Hong a sum of money: "Go out and find Bei outside the city." Xinjiang Ice House asked about the whereabouts of the robbers. Which direction, location, and how many robbers there were? "
"Yes, Master"
York Red took the coin and asked for it. Go outside.
Helot came to the restaurant of the main castle as if taking a stroll, and was told... Master Panier had an urgent matter to deal with at the moment, and he regretted that he could not share the dinner with the bone-crushing mage.
"Since Master Panil is not here, I won't disturb you."
As soon as Hailot was about to leave, Emmalu Bailey walked in: "Panil is not here, but I am. Make an appointment Let’s play mage chess in the evening. If you leave, who will I play with?
Sit down and eat!”
“Follow the instructions of Her Majesty the Princess.”
Hai Luo. Te had no choice but to stay.
Emmalu Bailey sat opposite Helot, clapped her hands, and the servants quickly brought the prepared dinner to the table.
Very simple, toast, bacon slices, fried fish, sausages and eggs.
Emma Lubeli said: "Panil and I are different. We don't like luxurious life. In fact, Panil also liked this kind of simple food before, but later he became more and more fond of it. Gorgeous and extravagant.”
Helot recalled that when he first met Melis, his life was like an ascetic. Even if I buy some decorations for the house, they are very simple and don't look like a duke's daughter or an imperial princess at all.
Looking here again, every restaurant is decorated magnificently.
There were only three people at lunch, and the chef prepared dishes that spread all over the table.
Helot understood the hint that Melis gave him. The dignity of the nobles was made of money. In a place like Northern Xinjiang, even the children of dukes have to dig potatoes in the fields during the warm season. Why do you, the son of a marquis, live so well?
There is definitely a problem with the Skowov family, but where is the root of the problem?
While Helot was having dinner with Princess Emmalu Bailey and playing magic chess, Palma was standing respectfully on the edge of a magma pool.
The red light of the magma illuminated his front, and a huge shadow was reflected on the wall of the cave.
In the hot magma, there is a person sitting in the middle as if he is soaking in a hot spring. His skin is copper-colored, he has no hair or eyebrows, and his eyes are flame red.
“Ah…” the man inside the magma exclaimed comfortably: “If it weren’t for the Bloody Rebellion and the Ice and Snow Duke betrayed his brothers, the Earth Fire Magma would have been the resort of our Chi Yan family.
The activity of the fire element here is probably comparable to that of volcanic eruptions, but volcanic eruptions are not so constant.
When the Ice and Snow family is wiped out, I will take the new Chiyan family with me. Moving to Earth Fire Magma, the entire northern Xinjiang will be ruled by the Chiyan family."
Panil said: "We have prepared everything and hope that the torturers will abide by your wishes to me. Promise, give me the true Northern Lights bloodline, and the Scovo family will become the new Ice and Snow family.”
"Of course, since the torturer can reappear the Chiyan family, he can create a new ice and snow family. Isn't Princess Emmalu Bailey's bloodline our gift to you?"
