Above the mage!

Chapter 444 Return to the Broom

Thirteen months ago, nine months ago, five months ago.
Sunaifa followed Master Yang's instructions and subconsciously went over his thoughts in his mind.

Then, the next moment, she discovered the specialness of these three time nodes.

Holy tree!

Thirteen months ago, Gode planted the sacred tree Yugathira.

Nine months ago, Yugatshira was promoted to the first level and gained the ability of "astral teleportation".

Five months ago, Yugatshira was promoted to the second level and awakened the "Enlightenment" ability.

It matches perfectly.

Once or twice may be just a coincidence, but if it happens three times, then there is no need to doubt anything.

More importantly, after confirming that it was Yggdrasil, what Master Yang said about "having the powerful force to change the North" was completely consistent.

She knew Yugathira's ability very well. It was an ability that was enough to change the world, and the so-called changing of the North was naturally no problem.

As she thought this, she glanced at Yarna from a distance.

Sunaifa is a smart person.

She knew very well that the discoveries that Yarna kept talking about were just lies that Yarna made up out of desperation in order to stir up conflicts between her and Master Yang.

Even if she had ten times the courage, Yarna would not dare to send anyone to approach Phoenix again.

But coincidentally, Yarna actually got it right by accident.

What Master Yang is looking for is indeed in the Zhenbing tribe.

The question now is, can she take Master Yang to see Yugatshira?
The answer is definitely no.

Although from beginning to end, Master Yang's attitude was relatively friendly and he did not seem like an evil and unreasonable person.

But Yugathira is too important, and Sunaifah will never gamble on the humanity of a stranger on such an important matter.

Various thoughts flashed through her mind, and she quickly sorted out the relationships between them, but there was no strange expression on Sunaifah's face.

Not showing emotions on one's face should be one of the basic qualities for a war mother, not to mention that Sunaifah herself is a person with a calm or extremely calm temperament.

"What you are looking for is not among our people. What Yarna said is all lies." She said calmly.

"If you don't believe me, then ask her to bring out the person in my tribe who found this thing and confront me."

Master Yang was slightly stunned.

"As she said, our tribe is powerful. How dare her people investigate our tribe?"

"Yarna, you said that the thing I'm looking for is found in the Zhenbing tribe. Who found it?" Master Yang had already noticed something was wrong. He turned his head with a little displeasure and looked at Yarna and asked.

This question stumped Yarna on the spot.

This was a spur-of-the-moment idea she came up with in a hurry. How could she immediately find someone to cooperate with her?

"This..." Yarna stammered.

Seeing her performance like this, how could Master Yang not know the truth of the matter?

Fortunately, he has good self-control, and he does have a connection with the Iceborn bloodline and the ancestors of the Hammer of Winter, so he can still control the anger in his heart.

"Sorry, I was presumptuous." He apologized to Sunaifa first.

"You said that your clan has some connection with me. What do you mean by that?" Sunaifa automatically skipped the topic and asked "tentatively".

Master Yang pondered for a moment, and seemed a little hesitant, but finally he spoke and revealed some secrets, "The master craftsman that my tribe follows and the guardian of your Iceborn tribe are the earliest beings born in this land of the North. The two of them have some intersections and can be considered friends."

"The guardian of my tribe?" Sunaifa's eyes flickered.

The Iceborn still have guardians? !

If so, who is it, where is it, and is it still alive?

If the guardian is still alive, why has the Iceborn bloodline been declining over the years, but this guardian has never appeared?

Or is the decline of the Iceborn bloodline related to this guardian?
At this moment, all kinds of questions flashed through Sunaifa's mind.

The existence of guardians is not recorded in the classics of the Zhenbing tribe.

Apparently, either it was too secret to be recorded, or this piece of history was lost over time.

"That's all I can say to you, as an apology for the offense I caused you earlier." Master Yang bowed to Sunaifa and his meaning was very clear. That was all he had to say, and he asked Sunaifa not to ask any more questions.

After this incident, Sunaifa no longer insisted. He glanced at Yarna coldly and chose to leave.

She didn't say anything harsh, but that one look was enough to make Yarna shiver all over.

As soon as he left the range of the Hammer of Winter, Sunaifah immediately increased his flying speed.

This time she came to question someone, but because of the sudden appearance of Master Yang, her questioning was aborted.

But this trip was not in vain.

Knowing the existence of the Guardian is one thing, it is at most an anecdote, and if you pay a little attention to it, it will not have any impact on the current situation.

The point is, we know that there is a powerful tribe looking for Yugathira, but we don't know what their intentions are.

This is huge news.

Apart from anything else, at least after knowing this news, we can take appropriate measures to strengthen the confidentiality of information within the clan and resolutely prevent the news of Yugath Sheila's existence from leaking out. At the same time, it is also to further strengthen the "security" work of Flora Forest.

Otherwise, it would be terrible if someone took advantage of you without you knowing anything about it.

When he thought of this, Sunaifa felt a little worried again.

Because from the brief interaction with Master Yang just now, she could conclude that Master Yang's tribe was not in the western part of the North, and was extremely powerful.

His strength is almost enough to make him the best in the western part of the Northern Territory, but he is not prominent in his own tribe.

It is hard to imagine what a powerful tribe that was.

What’s even more terrifying is the master craftsman mentioned by Master Yang.

"The first existence born in this land of the North"

You should know that in ancient times, the Iceborn have already lived on the permafrost in the north.

Since it can be called the earliest existence, it must be earlier than the Iceborn.

It was earlier than the ancient times, and who knows how many tens of thousands of years have passed by now. But according to Master Yang, this master craftsman is still alive.

If he wasn't lying, one could imagine how terrifying this master craftsman would be. "My king, what do you think?" As soon as he returned to Phoenix, Sunaifah told God everything he had seen and heard during his trip.

Gao De pondered for a moment, silently digesting this shocking news in his heart.

"If they are only slightly stronger than us, we will naturally be fully prepared and pay attention to any disturbances."

Then, he spread his hands and said very naturally or in a casual manner, "But this is a being who has lived from an earlier time point in ancient times to the present day. With such a long lifespan, his strength is far beyond what we can handle."

"In this situation, we should keep a calm mind, because if he really comes to Zhenbing in person, no matter what we do, it will be useless."

What he said made so much sense that Sunaifa was convinced in an instant, and his tense heart relaxed: "But we still need to strengthen the security and confidentiality of Flora Forest, at least to prevent other people from snooping."

"The safest way is to expand the scale of Flora Forest as quickly as possible." Goder nodded in agreement.

A tree cannot be hidden in the desert, but in the forest it is very difficult to find.

"Ever since Minister Flora discovered the everfrost oak, the number of mages in the tribe who master the art of nature is growing rapidly. At this rate of progress, Flora Forest will become a real forest in just one year." Sunaifah nodded.

The discovery of the permafrost oak is the most important thing to Phoenix.

Because the "Art of Nature" is a secret technique that can truly and effectively promote the development of the North.

This is the cornerstone.

"I was originally thinking of using this incident to directly annex the Hammer of Winter, but it seems I have to think about it more carefully." Gao De sighed.

In his expectation, since he already had a reason, he could use this as an excuse to subdue the Hammer of Winter by force, but the appearance of Master Yang forced the matter to be put on hold.

I don't even know how long it will be shelved.

Master Sheep came to find Yggdrasil and sought the help of the Hammer of Winter.

He would most likely not leave the Hammer of Winter before finding this thing.

As long as Master Sheep is in charge of the Hammer of Winter, there is no way to conquer the enemy by force.

"Fortunately, everything is normal with the Frostwolf Clan and proceeding as planned."

"Yes," Sunaifa knew everything about the tribe, and said immediately, "In the past year, the birth rate of young wolves in the Frostwolf Clan has increased by about 50% compared to the same period last year."

Birth rate and same period are concepts popularized by Gaode.

According to him, in a mature governance system, all written reports must contain large amounts of accurate data, and many data concepts are introduced, such as same period, year-on-year, quarter-on-quarter, etc.

It was indeed a little bit difficult to get used to at first, but Sunaifa quickly mastered the usage of these data and used them skillfully.

The reason why the word "approximately" appears is because the Frostwolf Clan is an "enemy" after all, and the information available cannot be accurate.

"This is just the beginning. The birth rate of young wolves in the Frostwolf clan will increase this year, and it will increase significantly. Last year they were still in a wait-and-see state and were relatively conservative about purchasing Northwest Barley No. 1.

But after we started the counter-acquisition of the wolf milk, wolf hair and even wolf blood produced by the Frostwolf Clan as you said, they first relaxed their vigilance, and secondly, the huge economic benefits were in front of them, and they were directly overwhelmed and completely let the snow wolves breed. "

"In two years at most, the Frostwolf Clan will become absolutely dependent on our Northwest Barley No. 1.

As long as we stop supplying them with Northwest Barley No. 1, they will either choose to surrender or kill most of the snow wolves in the tribe to relieve the food pressure." Speaking of this, Sunaifa was still amazed.

She was an excellent ruler with a natural talent for ruling, but this was the first time she had heard of this kind of tactic.

This also opened up Sunaifa's thinking to a certain extent.

People like her are very good at learning from others' experiences and just need a little inspiration.

"If it's the former, then there's no need to say anything. If it's the latter, then that will be when they are the weakest. Even if military reunification is used, the damage will be minimized." Gao De said with a smile.

As for the Frostwolf Clan, the dust has basically settled. What he is worried about now is the Hammer of Winter.

"Plans really can't keep up with changes." He sighed.

"My king, you seem to attach great importance to the Hammer of Winter?" Sunaifah couldn't help asking.

The Hammer of Winter and the Frostwolf Clan are both large Iceborn tribes. Their strength, resources, and even population are not much different. In fact, in Sunafa's opinion, the Frostwolf Clan is more valuable.

Their skills in taming snow wolves are absolutely priceless.

Combined with the abundant food resources in Phoenix and the jewel berry trees being cultivated in Flora Forest (one jewel berry can satisfy a snow wolf's food needs for one day).

As long as they conquer the Frostwolf Clan and learn how to tame snow wolves, they will be able to quickly increase the number of snow wolves several times, bringing visible strength growth to the tribe.

In comparison, the forging technology of the Hammer of Winter does not seem to be that useful, and it is not direct enough to improve Phoenix.

"Their forging skills are important, their mastery of minerals is important, and the power of fire is also important."

Gao De naturally knew what Sunaifa was confused about, and explained it in the most understandable way: "A Hammer of Winter is related to the next two departments of Phoenix."

Sunaifa raised his eyebrows when he heard this.

Currently, Phoenix has only five departments: the Ministry of Agriculture, the Ministry of Education, the Public Security Bureau, the Office, and the Ministry of Construction.

The birth of each department either brings visible changes to Phoenix or solves Phoenix’s most difficult problems at the moment.

And the Hammer of Winter actually involves two new departments?
"The Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Finance." Gao De did not keep Sunaifa in suspense. Since he had started talking, he started talking.

Phoenix had always been "publicly owned" before, with everyone sharing the fruits of their labor and eating from a big pot, and food was distributed by the rulers.

Under the conditions of limited food and scarce supplies, this system is reasonable. The unified distribution of limited food can ensure the survival of the tribe to the greatest extent.

But now that the food problem has been solved, this system will hinder Phoenix's development.

If we want to liberate productivity, private ownership is imminent.

The foundation of private property is money.

Without money, there would be no private property.

"We need to master the fire power of the Hammer of Winter and the gold mines to be able to mint enough currency to promote private ownership."

"As for industry, it is difficult to explain it in a short time. It is hard to understand before seeing the real thing. In a word, industry is the dominant force in the national economy and has an irreplaceable core position in the development of a force or even a country," said Gao De.

"Of course, the Hammer of Winter is not that important." Seeing that Sunaifah seemed to be thinking about something, Gao De was afraid that she might think wrongly, so he added: "Their things can only be regarded as the starting point for the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Finance. It would be best to have them, which can save some effort. If we don't have them, we can start on our own."

"I understand." Sunaifa nodded.

"There is one more thing. Things here have almost come to an end. I have been back to the North for some time. I have been away for too long. I am afraid that I will be exposed if I don't show up in the Plantagenet Dynasty for too long. I will probably go back tomorrow or the day after tomorrow." Gao De said to Sunaifa again.

"It will take another month for the next star teleportation to be completed. Thank you for your hard work while I'm away." As a hands-off boss, he still felt a little guilty.

Sunaifa did not complain at all, and even reminded him: "You can rest assured that I am here in the North. On the contrary, you are alone in the Plantagenet Dynasty, so you must be careful."
