Dear Broom Knight.

Chapter 672 What kind of dog can you eat?

The Lord of Storms has nothing wrong with doing this. After all, people like Baal who don't have ice and snow talents but can use ice skills have basically exchanged their souls and faith with the Lord of Ice.

In other words, the Lord of Ice himself had no interest in human souls and was determined to conquer the laws of ice and snow with his own abilities, which is why he did not take advantage of these foolish traders.

In other words, the direct descendants of the Baal family all faintly carry some of the divine power of the Lord of Ice.

When the Ice Dog King was born from Miss Baal's womb, no one was surprised, precisely because of this.

It's something everyone knows perfectly well.

If it were Alex, Count Montes would absolutely not allow him to marry a girl from the Baal family.

However, marrying a local noblewoman with an ambiguous stance could make life easier for Masoud's descendants, who could later become collateral relatives.

The simplest reason is that the territory he owns after splitting off is generally not attacked by packs of wild ice dogs.

Although the Earl of Montes' love for his two sons was not exactly equal, it was sincere enough and his consideration for both was very thorough.

Otherwise, Masoud, with his petty nature, wouldn't have maintained such a good relationship with his wife's family.

Although he was very dissatisfied, he also understood that, given his status, Miss Barr was the most practical choice.

Masoud knew very well that his biological father still loved him, and that his unwillingness to accept the priority of succession was due to his own greed.

Therefore, he didn't have the guts to openly show disdain and dissatisfaction like Lowry... Although he suffered a lot because of Alex, Count Montes compensated him in other ways.

He just wanted more.

Furthermore, what truly annoyed him was the condescending attitude of his older brother and sister-in-law.

Of course, Alex had his reasons: how could a shrewd person like Alex not see through Massoud's subtle ulterior motives?

He just never expected that his younger brother would dare to use such a ruthless underhanded tactic, knowing that such a powerful opponent as Lowry existed.

However, Alex felt he was completely right, even though he would occasionally give Massoud a nudge.

Count Montes was not unaware of the discord between his two sons, but he considered it from the perspective of a normal nobleman and naturally could not have imagined that Massoud could be raised to be such a wretched child.

In addition, there were too many people stirring things up, and he didn't receive a proper education from a young age. Even Pat from Mrs. Yages' side caused a lot of trouble... However, Massoud's fate was probably beyond saving after he lost his mother and the two brothers wholeheartedly trusted their maternal grandparents.

However, whatever path Masoud takes, it doesn't really matter to Lowry, and they can't affect the overall situation.

Even if that child were to be born, it would only make the already tarnished reputation of the Montes family even worse.

After all, the Church of Ice always makes the most of its resources and doesn't hide like the Lord of the Tower did with Kayle.

Anyway, those who truly cared about their reputation have long since turned to ashes.

But in the eyes of the evil god, especially in the eyes of the Ice Dog King who might have harbored ulterior motives, Masoud and his wife were truly a match made in heaven: they were even there specifically to help him achieve his goals.

Although the dragon-blooded rhinoceros is not considered a special species among dragon-blooded animals, it does indeed possess some of the bloodline of a white dragon.

Although the child never even had the chance to appear in the world, the Ice Dog King did indeed stay in that body that combined dragon blood and the power of ice for several months.

He himself may not have much insight, but to have reached this point today, he must have already had problems back then.

Since the power that created him included the goddess of rain, he could naturally contact her silently if he wanted to.

But the goddess of rain is smart enough.

The Lord of Ice is truly... bold.

However, he didn't really make good use of Ice Dog King, always treating Big Dog as a pure henchman.

However, after using it for a long time, one will lose some of their vigilance.

Lowry couldn't help but sigh. He had once suspected that the Montes family's rhinoceros was just like the animals in his territory, a result of bloodline contamination from years of living with the white dragon.

However, the reason why the Ice Dog King took a liking to him was probably another reason he hadn't thought of and didn't want to think about... Luscania had given him such a strong filter that he almost forgot just how beastly these true dragons really were.

Lowry reached out and touched her resilient hair... Actually, once she was certain that she really was a humanoid dragon, there was no doubt about it anymore.

After all, dragons have arrogance written in their bones.

What can awaken the dragon bloodline of the other side is definitely not the dragon beast bloodline in the eyes of the dragon.

He was just pretending to be stupid and didn't want to admit it.

Anyway, he's so young, it's normal that he can't think of things or understand them thoroughly.

But this time, Ice Dog King left him with no room to struggle.

Lowry could only try to divert the attention of the people in front of him... Given his current status, those who would openly take advantage of him were basically all here.

So he quickly asked a series of questions: "Is it only this Qingxuan Ice body that can seal you, or can it be used to harm you in the same way in the future?"

Ice Dog King, are you at your feet now?
"Is it the real body or an avatar... is there any possibility of escape?" "Slow down!" the Lord of Ice said impatiently, "I'm using an ice brain right now, I can't keep up!"

Whether it was his original form or his avatar, he was completely gone.

I drew out his divine fire.

"Just divine fire?" Lori blinked. "You..."

For a moment, he didn't know how to talk to this guy whose brain was probably not even thawed.

"How do you know these outsiders won't leave him a chance to survive?" The arrogant voice of the Goddess of Night rang out. "They certainly know more about the divine duties."

“You are the ones who don’t understand!” the Lord of Ice replied proudly. “The divine office I assigned to him came from the bloodline of the dragons.”

What connects the laws and the soul is the power of the dragon.

The dragon's ascension to godhood was merely a way to ensure its own survival and prevent it from falling into oblivion. Although this would connect it to a certain world, it wouldn't mean it would be unable to leave.

The only reason why the Dragon God's divine power remains unaffected no matter where he flies in the multiverse is the power of the dragon.

Only the Nine-Headed Dragon God Aio can dispel the influence of this power.

Even the gods of races don't have this ability.

After all, the Dragon God, well... anyway, no matter how many benefits they offered the Ice Dog King, it wouldn't matter; once they're gone, they're gone!

Lori knew what he was trying to say; for ordinary dragons, the Dragon God was the greatest threat.

If they could really do that, would the other dragons even survive?
That would require offering sacrifices every day!

However, the Lord of Ice probably doesn't know which side he's on, and is still unwilling to say anything too realistic.

Of course, Lowry was unwilling as well.

After all, sooner or later everyone will know that he is also a dragon.

Perhaps everyone already knows, after all, the White Dragon King has a lot of underhanded tricks up his sleeve.

In conclusion, although the Lord of Ice was outmaneuvered by the Ice Hounds he himself created, the long-term consequences were ultimately resolved.

He lowered his head and thought for a moment, still somewhat incredulous: "You... could it be that when you created the Ice Dog King, you used the part of the divinity related to rain?"

"So, you're really annoying!" The Lord of Ice was genuinely displeased. "How do you know everything just by saying a little bit?"

"Does he even need to say that?" the Lord of Storms asked, feeling utterly bewildered. "This is a follower of a god you created with your own divine power, who at most has a little more autonomy than your own avatar."

How could something go wrong like this? It's clearly your own fault!
"Once you know your little secrets, you'll naturally understand what stupid thing you did!"

"What can I do!" the Lord of Ice said irritably. "If she hadn't wanted to completely control everything about me, and hadn't parted off a small portion of herself to the Ice Dog King, I would be finished!"

My flesh and blood originate from her body; this is a fact that even the gods cannot change!

Even gods must repay the debt of giving birth to children.

Gods born from flesh and blood are completely different from gods born from the shock of divine power like Toril.

Therefore, actions like those of the Rain Goddess, though vicious and shameless, are evils that the laws can tolerate.

This is because the Lord of Ice was born as a demigod and was connected to the laws of ice and snow from birth, which is why the rain's actions were judged as evil.

If the Lord of Ice were just an ordinary human, he would have no choice but to obediently give his physical body to his mother.

If you're lucky, you might encounter someone who's reasonable, and at least you could enter their divine kingdom and live forever.

If you're unlucky, you can only silently wait in the River Styx for your final moment to arrive.

"No wonder, the Ice Dog King is not only stupid, but also despicable!"

Such an imposing comment could only come from the mouth of the Goddess of the Night: "Since you're useless to this thing anyway, why don't I cook it and feed it to the dogs?"

"What are you talking about? What kind of dog can..."

"The Goddess of Night was just joking with you, don't take it so seriously." The Lord of Earth immediately interrupted the Lord of Ice's foolish remarks.

"The Gale Wolves of the Lori family should be able to digest them." The Goddess of the Night, who had only casually insulted the Lord of Ice and the Goddess of Rain, suddenly had an idea.

“Thanks for the invitation. My Gale Wolf and I both belong to the Storm faction.” Lori immediately perked up and quickly replied, “The laws of ice are not suited to our nature.”

The Lord of Storms paced around the room... and finally chose to remain silent.

Travis spoke up, and he was able to say something to express his refusal.

But Lowry... Lowry is willing to continue using the identity of a Storm Follower, which is a sign of his trust in him!
He was unwilling to hurt his friend's passionate heart.
