Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 408: Ice Dog and Wind Wolf
The identity of the Ice Queen is the only person who can make Lori, a notoriously vindictive, ruthless and impulsive wizard, give in a little.

It was surprising that she could hang around outside Qingfeng Valley for so long and was completely ignored by Lord Qingfeng, who even chose to strengthen Valera's strength.

According to the great wizard's bad temper, he should have knocked down that group of people first, and then rushed directly to the capital of the North to settle accounts with the White Dragon King.

Whether he was caught in a weak spot by Queen Rosalind, or he was really willing to make concessions for the benefit of the White Dragon King or even the Northern Kingdom, he would most likely choose to be gentle this time.

In other words, kill all these ice people, but don't go after the Ice King and Queen.

Therefore, as long as they escape quickly, the Icemen may be able to escape, not to mention the evil adventurers who were just hired... Even if they took the initiative, they are definitely not the first responsible persons on the surface.

Lord Qingfeng is the type who has strict requirements for order, so there is a high probability that he will not be chased thousands of miles away.

As for the bounty order issued... after passing the territory of Dark Night and reaching the territory of wealth, who would care about Lord Qingfeng who does not give face to the gods?
For these desperate criminals, a one in ten chance is enough for them to take the risk, not to mention there is such a great chance of escaping.

Of course, the biggest crisis for them is actually a head-on confrontation with Valeira.

But if there are ice people standing in front, then it will naturally be a little more certain.

Therefore, the biggest problem now is... The bearded man lowered his voice slightly: "Qingfeng Territory must know about your arrival and our spying.

Who knows, they might even be planning to catch us all in one fell swoop!

Do you have any... plans?"

"The only thing we can do is to stop Bolanios." Rogers answered solemnly, "But how to trap Lord Qingfeng is something you have to think about."

His expression was extremely serious and his tone was unquestionable, making it clear that this was the only outcome they would accept.

The bearded man thought for a while, exchanged glances with the others, and felt that this result was acceptable.

No matter what, Bolanos is the most capable person in this territory.

However, there is still a problem that needs to be solved: "What about the Gale Wolves? There is no way that the pack of wolves will not take action. Lord Qingfeng almost shares the territory with them.

If we do this, we are provoking the wolves within their vigilance range. Even if we are targeting other people, they will go crazy."

This is the thing about Lord Qingfeng that outsiders find most difficult to understand.

He didn't care at all about the pack of wolves that were idly patrolling around Qingfeng Territory, and they neither greeted him nor cooperated with the knights.

Then, the group of Wind Wolves were spoiled.

Whenever a rabbit passes by on the road, a giant wolf will appear from nowhere and rush out to check it... Yes, it doesn't want to catch it and eat it, but to check whether there is anything wrong with it and why it dares to walk on the road.

If someone from the Great Cliff suddenly appeared outside Qingfeng Valley, they would follow and observe for a while.

Those patrolling knights wouldn't mind so much!

But the Wind Wolf will.

They felt that according to their patrol route, it shouldn't be possible for someone who was not within their observation range to suddenly run so far.

If anyone can't explain themselves clearly, the Wind Wolf will just roll them up and throw them to the police station.

Taylor, the youngest child of the Toller family, who was in charge of the security of the territory, didn't care at all that the Wind Wolf did his job and interfered with his power. He sent these people to the interrogation table so neatly.

Those who have problems and can be easily captured by the Wind Wolf naturally do not have the ability to withstand the interrogation process carefully designed by the Grand Wizard.

Even those adventurers who are very confident in their abilities will definitely choose to tell the truth when faced with such a situation.

Indeed, sufficient willpower can withstand those potion arrays that make people relax and tell the truth... but it cannot withstand the real array that can simply judge right and wrong!

As long as the interrogator is careful and leaves no loopholes, basically no one can survive.

Instead, I suffered so much in vain.

We all understand that there are indeed adventurers like Tiger Blade who abide by the rules, but Tiger Blade is only regarded as a big adventuring group because of its overall strength.

How could a real adventure group with thousands of people be as honest as Tiger Blade?

People who come for money will only do more for money and will never suddenly have a guilty conscience.

So, it sounds like everyone followed the rules because they were afraid of Lori Montez, but in reality, no one would be so submissive from the beginning!
All of this was learned through lessons.

But Lord Qingfeng is a really cold-hearted person. He doesn't care whose subordinates the people he captured belong to, and he won't use this matter to negotiate terms with those big adventure groups... He will just judge according to the laws of the territory and the northern nobles.

However, the most irreversible rule in the so-called Northern Noble Law is: to disregard the dignity of the nobility and to despise their existence.

Even if the adventure group is backed by great nobles or even the royal family, if Lord Qingfeng has enough reason to determine that someone has violated this rule, then no one can save him. However, generally speaking, nobles rarely use this rule to trick people. After all, everyone understands that the balance between high-level professionals and nobles has always been high and low.

Lord Qingfeng is a person with a very strange personality.

It's really weird.

No one knows what criteria he used to judge whether this person made him angry or furious.

At the beginning, some adventure groups thought that he was doing it for the benefit of the civilians, so after a few incidents, they stopped sending out those villains who burned, killed and looted in private.

But it still doesn't work.

Some adventure groups even deliberately sent out killers that they were unable to clean up... These people usually assassinated many people in the justice camp, but Lord Qingfeng just threw him into the mine.

The mines in Qingfengling are different from those in other places.

Not only is there a single track that allows them to use small mining carts to transport goods without having to worry about the danger of falling while carrying heavy objects, but there are also many means to assist in mining.

The quality of the tools was also very good. The toughness and strength of the mining pick were almost as good as those of some mid-level adventurers' weapons.

And the food is also very good.

The wilderness of Qingfeng Territory was not really desolate at all. The lord had pigs, cattle and sheep roaming around almost everywhere.

You can even slaughter a pig a day in the mine!

Even though it might not be a big deal if shared among hundreds of people, it is pork!

Ordinary adventurers wouldn't dare say that they can eat pork every day.

Besides, there is plenty of rabbit meat.

On the contrary, those who have been absent from work are not very willing to eat it, as they think it makes them hungry too quickly.

Of course, no matter what, mining is hard work and fatigue is inevitable.

It's also very hard for ordinary people.

But for those who were born as killers and were abandoned, it is simply a paradise in their dreams!
What's that amount of labor?
If those big adventure groups had not reacted quickly enough, they would have sent Lord Qingfeng a large number of hard-working laborers who were willing to stay in the mines and work until they died.

Then, even though he had done nothing wrong and was just very good at communication, the lord sentenced him to death without hesitation for disrespecting the laws of the nobility.

Although everyone has known for a long time that Lori Montez's brain is different from that of normal people, everyone is still confused as to how different it is.

I can't figure it out and can't figure out how to play it. What else can I do except secretly curse the crazy wizard!
Do those great adventure groups really think Hamilton is having a great time?

Although they are not afraid of the chaos caused by Leon's trouble-making physique, who would want to clean every day if there is nothing to do!
But if they want to keep the Maple Leaf Badge score within the passing range and prevent their subordinates from going crazy trying to increase their scores because of the environment in Qingfeng Territory and Montes Territory, they can only do that.

This kind of pain can only be best understood by those who are also adventurers.

People like them, who once thought that the things in Qingfengling were just so-so, and that it didn't matter how good their lives were or how delicious the food was, haven't their mindsets become unbalanced because they could only watch but not enjoy the days in recent years?
Although there were other reasons in secret, the reality that Qingfeng Territory would never open its doors to them was indeed the reason why they were willing to accept these reasons.

As a human being, it is impossible to blame oneself for not having eyes at the time. One can only blame the lord for being too stubborn and harsh.

"Barry will take care of it." Rogers was silent for a long time before answering the bearded man's question softly, "Just pretend that this matter doesn't exist."

The bearded man's eyes couldn't help but move.

The Ice Frost believers were all dissatisfied and angry, and it was obvious that they were not smart enough. Of course, they knew Barry's background.

But he really didn't expect that Barry was actually an ice dog...wait...

The high-level ice dog that can be used at this time and place must be on the iceberg behind!

Isn't that the base where these adventurers have been fighting every year in recent years?

What’s going on…Last month, Bolanos rescued someone from an ice hole that was so deep that it might have led directly underground!
Those ice dogs still followed their usual style and retreated immediately when they saw him. They did not chase him directly to the foot of the mountain like they did to other people.

Although Bolanios' destructive power and lethality are indeed too great, according to the adventurers' observations, there is more than one level 16 ice dog in that ice hole.

They are all direct descendants of the Ice Dog King, so they won't necessarily be completely defeated by Bolanios.

But there has never been a direct confrontation between the two sides.

Ice dogs, especially the Ice Dog King, are not the kind of creatures that would flee without a fight in the face of a strong enemy.
