Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 282 Vargas's Horse
Lowry clicked his tongue slightly in his heart.

What he admired most about Chesca was his ability to suppress his boiling heart with calm thinking at any time.

What she is most curious about right now must be the situation of the Ice King Alex.

Just because she didn't react to Alex's little action at the beginning didn't mean that she and her four siblings had no malice or resentment towards the king.

The appearance of the Lord of Ice was definitely a huge blow to the ambitious King of Icefield.

It is even possible that it was because he brought the people of Earth and Dark Night to the ice field that the Ice King, who had originally planned to wait and see, gave up his hope and directly chose the only law he was sure of.

Although doing so would indeed greatly limit his future, at least he would not fail at the last hurdle.

If even the people in the Northern Kingdom have this idea, Lori believes that the nobles in the Ice Kingdom will definitely think so as well.

Even if it wasn't true, they would still pin the blame on Alex!
Not to mention there is a certain possibility.

There must be a lot of fun in the recent Ice Kingdom.

But such a Chesca, after confirming that the model of the planet was roughly successful, clicked on Vargas on the grassland.

Obviously, it was to confirm the whereabouts of the intelligence dealer related to Scroll Mountain and Handel at the moment.

Yes, that capable intelligence dealer actually took Handel across the terrible glacier and into Vargas before the snow closed the mountain.

Lori was shocked when he received this message.

I can only say that people who can do such a dangerous job in this complex world are quite extraordinary.

Moreover, Handel had become a serious scholar even when he entered Vargas.

Although Lori was not very interested in this man and the shadows behind him, he had to admit that there was a reason why Scroll Mountain chose this guy among the six or seven somewhat arrogant quasi-scholars in his territory.

He even felt a little relieved because of this...Lori has always felt that people who can become scholars generally have good intelligence and emotional intelligence.

Even if you are a little arrogant and have a high opinion of yourself, you should not be unable to see clearly the environment you are in and the reality you are facing.

But Handel still chose a road that looked difficult to walk on... Scroll Mountain was far away in the horizon, but the powerful Lowry was right in front of him!

However, if the other party can guarantee that he can break through and become a scholar, it is indeed worth a try for those who have been stuck for a long time and have to watch people who are not as good as themselves rush ahead.

Although it was still betrayal, Lori would rather accept this reason now.

After all, he always felt that he had tight control over the territory and understood the bottom line of these "workers", so when Handel suddenly appeared, Lowry was actually quite depressed.

Of course, when Handel's sudden betrayal occurred, Lowry had already discovered that something was wrong with him.

If it were him two years ago, he would never have thought that the monitoring array was sophisticated enough and there were enough surveillance eyes, so it would be foolproof.

However, it seemed that as he awakened the dragon's inherited memory, he became more and more confident.

To put it bluntly, it is arrogance in my bones.

The reason why Lowry did not suffer too much loss even after being awakened by that accident was mainly because he really had no desire.

But this is not because he has a clear mind, but because there is nothing in this world that can tempt a otaku like him to get restless.

If what appeared before him was a computer that could connect to the world of the past...Lori felt that he would definitely go crazy, forget everything, and rush directly into the trap.

Fortunately, he was aware of his own inner instability before anyone could create such an illusion for him.

Lowry actually felt it was pretty weird during those days.

He was clearly full of awe for the powerful people in this world, and was wholeheartedly hiding in his own territory to escape reality. How could he suddenly become so arrogant that he thought "everything is under control"?
Although the reputation of otaku has been ruined by some imposters who actually have jobs and wives but just love to play games, the real otaku is actually an autistic person who acts recklessly in the virtual world and shrinks into a ball in reality.

Lowry never thought about conquering everyone, he just wanted to make his own little nest perfect.

Lowry didn't want to blame his dragon bloodline for his subtle change in mentality.

He knew very well that blood was never the reason for a person to lose his rationality.

Or maybe it's because things have been too smooth in recent years that he has paralyzed himself.

Therefore, Lowry chose to let Cheska, who was always calm, review the information.

Even though he has been reminding himself not to make the same mistake again during this period, if it were him, he would definitely go to see the Ice Country first.

After all, he had seen all that information!

Chesca's eyes moved back and forth across Vargas' territory.

If you only look at the land area, Vargas is actually quite vast.

But in fact, because the people of the grassland mainly make a living by herding, there are not many proper big cities, but rather small towns that are like stars. Near each small town is a pasture that is enough for the residents to survive.

Every young man in a small town had to serve the king for more than three years when he came of age before he could be eligible for allocation of new town pastures.

Well, in Vargas, people without talent are not eligible to be allocated ranches and can only work for ranchers.

Those with a better life would work on the ranch of their father or siblings.

Although it was still very hard, at least their lives were still acceptable. They had enough food and drink, and they could marry and have children with people who were equally untalented... They were still quite popular among ordinary people.

After all, since they have a rancher in their family, it proves that their children are talented.

Once an ordinary couple gives birth to a gifted child, they can live out their days on their child's ranch.

Of course, if no gifted person appears for several generations, they will naturally disappear completely because they lose the right to obtain a mate.

Therefore, what the grassland people care about most is always talent, not blood relationship.

They can treat their untalented children as consumables, but they will praise their talented children to the sky.

It is said that a long, long time ago, when the Nanyuan Okinson Kingdom established by the Son of the Earth had not yet appeared, people who made a living by herding could only work hard on the grassland and live by water and grass.

After all, cattle, sheep and horses are all creatures that are very harmful to the turf. Once their numbers become too large, naturally grown grass alone will not be able to sustain them.

Therefore, the herders could only wander from one pasture to another, and even fight for a piece of land with lush grass and water.

The reason why the original grassland country lived so comfortably was because no one envied their land where only grass could grow.

In this world where most land is fertile and even deserts are rare, there is really no one to fight over grasslands, and no one cares about them.

After all, there are not even any decent minerals, so they can only rely on selling meat in exchange for other daily necessities.

The knights on the grassland are best at using the whip, followed by the bow and arrow... You can imagine how scarce their resources are.

But King Okinson, who was favored by the God of Earth, appeared... He brought special grass cultivated specifically for the grassland, and a potion that could make grass and plants grow rapidly.

They even cultivated the best magic load-bearing horses... Not only could they carry thousands of pounds of weight, but their lifespan was also extended to 150 years.

This is the trump card.

The knights were strangled from then on, and the biggest expense in life was given to Nanyuan Okinson.

However, the Church of the Earth behind Nanyuan Okinson is notoriously good at infighting.

Soon, grassland countries emerged and developed their own unique horses.

Although it is not as good as Nanyuan Oakinson, the price is much different!

Vargas’ specialty is a kind of tall horse that can live for eighty years and carry 600 kilograms of weight.

Most importantly, this kind of horse can run normally in weather as low as minus fifty degrees Celsius, can gallop freely on the snow, and will not even slip on ice.

It is very suitable for the northern region with cold weather for more than five months a year.

Lowry's Living Feather Knights used this kind of horses... and they were long-haired white horses!

When running in the snow, these white horses with eyes like rubies are really beautiful.

Even the knights wearing gray and white rabbit fur cloaks on their horses looked particularly handsome against the background of these white horses.

Therefore, although Lowry also purchased some red and black Nanyuan horses from Okinson, he still equipped his own knights with Vargas horses.

Although their lord's little thoughts were obvious, none of the knights of the Living Feather Knights envied the Nanyuan horses in the stable.

It's not that the thing can't operate in the freezing cold and snowy North, it just needs to be equipped with special magic equipment.

It was already amazing that their lord could provide his own knightly order with Vargas horses and standard knight equipment. Who else could ask him to provide such luxurious things?
The equipment itself is about the same as a Vargas horse, but the biggest consumption is actually energy crystals... one piece per year.

Eight energy crystals equal one Vargas.

Who can afford to burn it?
Even Chesca, who has the highest salary, feels a little scared when he thinks of this price!
The Nanyuan horses in the north are basically used by nobles to show off.

Therefore, even though every Living Feather Knight went to the stable to admire the Nanyuan horses, no one ever wanted to replace his partner.

After all, no matter how beautiful and oppressive those horses are, they can't withstand the fact that everyone can only think of mountains of gold coins when they see them.
