Dominate the Treacherous Realm

　　 There was a brilliant white sword light reflected in those eyes, and the sword light seemed to be able to split everything, from far to near in an instant.

　　唰~

　　 Jenkins danced a sword flower, then closed the sword, slowly exhaling a long breath. Opposite him, the ice sculpture swordsman had been divided into two. His "corpse" slowly sank below the ice surface, leaving only his long sword in place.

The ice surface is still vibrating, the fountain rises in the center of the square, and then it really starts to spray water. There are unevenly distributed ice sculpture benches on the edge of the square. The square is scattered with lamp posts, and there are no people under the lamp posts. The cart of the peddler who was watching stopped quietly there.

　　 Ice sculptures of various colors rose up in turn, making the originally empty square suddenly crowded. An ice flag appeared on the flagpole. Although it could not be fluttered in the night wind, the moment it was frozen, Jenkins could still see the symbols on the flag.

　　 That is a snowflake symbol. According to Jenkins, no family or power uses such a symbol to represent itself.

　　 "What do you mean?"

　　 he wondered in his heart, bending over to pick up the gifted sword. But as soon as the hand touched the sword, the sword turned into a blue light and shrank into a spot of light.

　　 That light spot is actually a chess piece, the sword-holder's chess piece, the carving technique is no different from the ice chess piece held by Jenkins.

"Ok......"

　　 He was stunned for a while before he took the swordsman's chess pieces into his body, and then crossed the "lively" square and climbed the stairs in front of the gate.

　　 After both feet stepped on the ice steps, the sound of footsteps appeared from the gate of the palace. The footsteps were steady and strong, and when Jenkinsden reached the door all the steps, he happened to see the knight's ice sculpture standing there.

　　 "Welcome, guest, I am the gatekeeper here. If you want to enter the palace, you need to prove your qualifications to me."

　　 Bing Sculpture said, using a woman's voice, although there is almost no ups and downs, I can unexpectedly feel the unique emotional color of intelligent creatures.

　　 "How can I prove it? Do I have to fight you too?"

　　 Jenkins asked, ready to draw his sword again.

　　 "No, noble spirit does not need to be proved by brutal force. Please answer my question, guest, how do you understand chivalry?"

　　 The ice-sculpted steed under the knight's crotch rattled his nose impatiently, and took two steps in front of the gate with his horseshoes.

　　"Be kind to the weak;

　　 bravely fight against rape;

　　 Fight against all errors;

　　 Fight for the defenseless;

　　 Help anyone who asks me for help;

　　 will not harm any woman;

　　Help my brother knight;

　　 treat my friend sincerely;

　　 will remain with the loved one till death. "

　　 Jenkins said quickly, because he was already cold, and he wanted to enter the room quickly. This question was not difficult for him, and similar things were said when he first met Miss Windsor in Bel Dylan.

　　 Anyway, he is not a knight, and there is no psychological burden for him to say such beautiful words.

　　 "I recognize your spirit and welcome you, guest."

　　 The knight nodded to Jenkins, and then flew into the air in blue light spots with her steed. The spots of light drifted towards the outside of the castle, and the spots of light were attached to the walls, pillars, windows and steps, leaving a continuous pattern and complicated decorations.

　　 The last light spot stopped in front of Jenkins, Jenkins stretched out his hand to hold it, and then found that it was a knight's chess piece.

　　 In silence, he took the chess piece back into his own spirit, and lifted his leg into the palace. Although the indoor temperature is still very low, at least there is no bitter wind.

　　 The gate faces two stairs spiraling inwards, which leads to the second floor. In front of the stairs, there are corridors leading to the sides on the left and right sides of the hall, and in the center of the empty hall, an ice sculpture holding a crystal ball is waiting for Jenkins.

　　 "This time it's the wizard's turn...Are there still spearmen, killers, and berserkers waiting for me?"

　　 Jenkins couldn't help but said, and walked towards the center of the hall.

　　 "No, I don't quite understand what you are talking about."

　　 Bing Sculpture replied, this is the image of an old man:

　　 "First of all, I am not a wizard, I am an astrologer; second, have you never played a prank board? This is the most fun board game that has been popular from the 7th era (note) to the era when I was alive."

　　 "Sorry, it's the 18th era. I have never heard of a prank board...Excuse me, does that have anything to do with Mr. Prank?"

　　 Jenkins asked hesitantly.

　　 His question seems to make the old man who calls himself an astrologer very happy. He probably really likes this kind of board game.

"Yes, the prank board was the invention of the great master before he achieved himself, and it is also the invention that dominates a few without the function of prank... Although I have heard that some people are activated after losing. There are rumors that the chess pieces penetrated into the nostrils. There are 29 kinds of chess pieces in this chess game, but the main chess is only five types: swordsman, archer, knight, astrologer, and priest. Since you have an archer, I thought you already knew it. at this point."

　　PS: Mr. Mischievous achieved [Master] at the end of the Sixth Age. This is mentioned in the information article.

I didn’t plan to add a change. The second time in the morning was set at the wrong time. In fact, I finished the exam in the afternoon... Since it has been sent out, I’ll add a change. I’m asking for a ticket. Reward the blade.

Chapter 1235 Chapter 1214 The Pastor on the Roof

"Five types of chess pieces? Well...I have a lot to say now, but you must not understand it. This is really lonely...Forget it, I won't ask why there are no thieves. So, is this palace also the handwriting of Mr. Prank? And, may I ask, how do I get to the second floor, I don't think you will let me go straight up."

　　 Jenkins sighed and asked, because of the momentary sorrow, he even forgot to tremble.

"No, this has nothing to do with that great man, it's just that the master who made this palace likes this game as much as I do. As for going up...Yes, I am a fortuneteller, so respected guests, we It’s better to see if destiny is willing to let you move on."

　　 As the astrologer spoke, the crystal ball in his hand exudes a purple light representing destiny. At this time, a circle suddenly appeared under Jenkins' feet, and then the pentagram pattern representing the essence of his own soul appeared; then the colorful and complicated circles were superimposed on the outside of this circle, and some noise appeared in his ears. The sound is like cheering audiences in the theater.

　　 A clear sound of glass cracking appeared in his ears, and Jenkins realized that it was not glass at all but ice cubes. A series of cracks appeared on the surface of the crystal ball, and then the crystal ball split into eight petals... Jenkins' dynamic vision could only catch the eight petals and fell to the floor.

　　 "It turns out that you are also a fortune-teller, and you seem to be from my school."

　　 The astrologer looked at his crystal ball regretfully, and then said sadly.

　　 "Sorry, what did you say?"

　　 Jenkins is a little unsure whether he heard the word "school" just now.

　　 "Very well, it turns out that my inheritance has not disappeared until the 18th century. It seems that the great [Lord of Winter] has arranged everything. Young man, welcome your arrival, and destiny will guide your way forward."

　　 He said to himself, ignoring Jenkins, the body of the ice sculpture exploded into white ice powder. The ice powder floated to every place in the castle, wherever it passed, furniture, decorative armor, wall tapestries, oil paintings, etc. appeared one by one.

　　Of course, these are also made of ice.

　　 "School?"

　　 Jenkins still remembers that he had joined the school of prophets where Miss Broniance and Miss Audrey belonged. He also heard that this school has been passed down from a very old age, but he did not expect to meet the ancestors of the school.

　　 "But how did he know that I belong to the school? My purple destiny ability is not a school inheritance ability... and is he not an astrologer? He is not a fortune-teller."

　　 Thinking of this question, it was as if a light flashed in Jenkins' mind, and the pleasure of easily stabbing a layer of paper with his finger appeared in his heart:

"Could it be that in the time he lived, astrologers and fortune-tellers were the same kind of people! In the time he lived, the priesthood of [astronomy] and the priesthood of [divination] were not separated at all! In the era of his life, it is likely that those two Righteous God, there is no..."

　　 He didn't dare to continue thinking about it, worried that his nosebleed would float out again.

　　 was originally a mirror-like ice layer under his feet, but now the ice layer is covered with patterns like a carpet with the ice powder just now. After taking two steps forward, picking up the astrologer’s chess piece, he remembered a special vocabulary that the astrologer had just said:

　　【Lord of Winter】

　　 "This should be another master. Is it because of this one tonight?"

　　 The palace has more than one floor, which Jenkins knows very well when looking at it from the outside. He climbed up the stairs and encountered no obstacles on the second floor, so he continued to the third floor.

　　 stayed in front of the stairs on the third floor for a while, looked at the dark horizon in the distance through the floor-to-ceiling windows facing the stairs for a while, and then came to the fourth floor.

　　The area of ​​the high-rise is smaller than that of the low-rise. There is only a straight corridor on the fourth floor. After a glance, I made sure that there was nothing, and then continued to climb to the fifth floor.

　　 The fifth floor is a huge terrace. Behind the stairs is a tower. You need to go around from the first floor to the other side of the building to get up. In other words, the fifth floor is the end of the main staircase.

　　 The terrace is covered with a layer of snow, and the ice sculpture stands on the edge of the terrace facing away from Jenkins, looking into the distance of the mountains.

　　 "Welcome, the **** of lies, the sacrifice of the sacred tree, the lucky guy beloved by the gods, welcome here, I have been waiting for you for a long time."

　　 Before Jenkins could speak, the ice sculpture turned around. It was the image of an old man in a robe with his beard almost below his chest.

　　 "Sacrifice to the holy tree?"

　　 Jenkins questioned, he had a lot of questions tonight.

"Since a long time ago, my lord gave me the responsibility of guarding this palace. This palace does not usually appear in the material world. I am waiting in my lord's world. Once the right time is reached, ice and snow will cover the material world again. The land of the Northland, I will come here, waiting for someone who can endure the extreme cold, who can have both wisdom and force, who can save the world... After all, this was once the land of my lord. I have always While waiting, many, many years ago, a mortal was lucky enough to come to the entrance of the ice ladder and use a strategy to defeat the archer who was responsible for guarding the bridge..."

　　 Needless to say, I also know that he is talking about the ancestors of the Stuart family. As for other clues, Jenkins has now confirmed that [Lord of Winter] should also be a certain ruler.

Jenkins appreciates his spirit of telling what he knows after meeting, and hopes that he can say more. It is best to tell all the things he doesn't know. Tonight is not here in vain. Frozen.

　　 "So what are you waiting here for? Now I have come."

"Many years ago, I had a doubt in my heart, so I asked my lord: The extreme cold can freeze the human heart, but the warmth of the human heart can melt all the extreme cold, then the human heart or the extreme cold, which one has the stronger power? .

　　 My lord did not answer me directly, but asked me to stay here and wait for someone who can answer this question. "

　　 His brilliant eyes looked at Jenkins, and Jenkins stretched out his hand to himself:

　　 "So you want me to give you the answer to drag me to this place so late?"

　　 He is really cold. Any ordinary person who has encountered him tonight would have been frozen to death long ago.

　　 "No, I invite you to come here for something else... You are the **** of lies, why would I ask you for answers?"

　　 The old man asked suspiciously. The corners of Jenkins's mouth twitched, feeling that the answer was impeccable, and he couldn't refute it at all.

Chapter 1236 Chapter 1215: Help from the Great

　　 "But now I have passed the previous test and got these."

　　 His hand moved forward, and four ice-blue chess pieces representing swordsmen, archers, knights, and astrologers floated in front of him. He doesn't have abilities such as thought power, and this is not achieved by strong mental power and control of gifts, it is purely the simple application of [Freezing Ice] ability to make them float.

"No problem, since you have them, they are naturally yours. The **** of lies, my lord feels that his contract with the spirit of nature is touched, and a bold mortal called his sight not long ago, worrying about the material The elemental balance of the world was broken, so I was sent to help the mortals, and by the way, continue to wait for the one who can answer my questions-don’t look at me that way, I really don’t need your answer."

　　 Seeing Jenkins nodding to express understanding, he went on to say:

"When this palace and I appeared, we happened to observe a nearby snowman who was sealed by mortals escaped. I wanted to solve it, but I saw you. Then all the questions were solved. I was still wondering why. My lord gave me those things that I obviously can’t use... So, the idea of ​​the great is really beyond my ability to speculate... So, since you are here, then the element The imbalance and the abnormal changes of the ice and snow races in the extreme north naturally do not require me to intervene.

　　 My lord gave me props to handle this matter. You can take it away before you leave. Compared to me who specializes in ice and snow, you should be more suitable to solve this accident. Moreover, I know that you still have questions about this accident, so I invite you to come here. Do you have anything else to ask? "

　　 Hearing this, Jenkins nodded clearly, and he also had a new understanding of the relationship between the volume of [Frost Victory Pact] and the master. However, it is the first time that he has encountered such a kind and responsible master. Those who have been indirectly contacted in the past six months seem to have a bit of personality...

　　 There is obviously no rain or snow, but a thunder flashes in the sky. Jenkins watched his nose and his heart, and he didn't dare to think about anything. After a while, he asked again:

　　 "Do you really need me to answer your question?"

　　 "I don't really need it."

　　 The old man’s ice sculpture shook his head slowly and firmly rejected Jenkins’s kindness.

　　 "Well, I do have some questions to know... The material world still has a tradition of celebrating the Ice and Snow Festival. Does this festival have something to do with the great [Lord of Winter]?"

　　 "Yes, that is my lord has not yet achieved the position of dominance, to serve as..."

　　 He paused and changed his words immediately:

　　 "That is when the name of our lord is still in the material world. The festival set up by ordinary people to thank him for his blessing is indeed related to our lord."

　　 "What did he want to say?"

　　 Jenkins thought about it in doubt, thought about it and guessed it:

　　 "It can't be a festival when you have not yet achieved the position of ruler and assume the position of the righteous god," right...Huh? It seems that there is a possibility!"

　　 He subconsciously raised his hand and touched the lower part of his nose. He only felt that the nose was frozen and unconscious, but he did not feel the nosebleeds, so he felt that his sanity was still able to hold it:

"If this is the case, is it true that the masters are all promoted by the righteous gods? No, although the history of the church is not very coherent, there are not so many righteous gods in the ancient times, but at least I know that there has never been Which righteous God disappeared suddenly. The disappearance of the righteous God represents the disappearance of the Church of the Righteous God. This is an absolute event. No matter how serious the historical loss is, there will never be any record."

　　 There are some complicated questions in his heart waiting to be answered, but the cold temperature seems to have frozen his brain, Jenkins is temporarily unable to make further inferences, so he wants to solve the immediate matter first.

　　 "So in this accident, I mean the abnormal weather and the riots of the Northern Yeti Legion. Is it just an accident caused by mortals?"

"Not all, now is the end of the epoch. Chaos and war are destined. The cause has been buried a long time ago, and the imbalance of the elements has not only begun to appear because the contract of the nobles was touched. Lies. God, you should have a deeper understanding of fate than I do. All of this is destined."

　　 Pastor answered the question in a chanting tone, of course, the speech rate was still very slow.

"okay then."

　　 Jenkins said so, feeling that his internal organs are frozen at the moment. But at the same time he felt awake that he had never had before, and his body was not stiffened by the extreme cold, but rather more energetic.

"The last question, how do I solve all this? Although I am a **** who resides in the material world, you should be able to see that I am not in a complete state of **** at the moment, even if I have a weapon given by [Lord of Winter], It is not necessarily able to smooth the impact of element imbalance."

　　 "This is very simple, my lord has already expected all this, please accept this."
