Chapter 424: Out of Nowhere
"Ah Ling, it's November soon, time flies so fast. β
Looking at the clear blue sky, Nian Yubai didn't know what he thought, and his face was no longer the cynical and lazy appearance on weekdays, but a little inexplicable emotion.
"yes, it's been almost a year since I came to the Ice Field. Yu Ling was reminded by him like this, and suddenly remembered this time a year ago, which was the day when they first came to the ice field.
In the blink of an eye, after staying in this icy and snowy place for nearly a year, the people and things of the academy seemed to be so far away as if they were across a world, who would have thought that they would experience so many thrilling and bizarre things in the ice field?
Struggling from the abyss to the snow realm, the experience of the Eight Classics has not been carried out much, and all the encounters are the kind of strong enemies that are almost impossible to resist.
"Sometimes I'm quite conflicted, I want the snow god to show up sooner and finish it sooner, and sometimes I'd rather delay a little longer. Nian Yubai sighed and said.
Yu Ling said calmly: "Because you don't have confidence that we can survive from her." β
"It's as if you have faith. Nian Yubai rolled his eyes and said.
Yu Ling just looked up at the white clouds flowing leisurely in the blue sky, quietly distracted, and there was still no superfluous expression on his face.
Nian Yubai glanced at him, and suddenly said: "I used to think that you were the kind of person who would never give up and despair easily, but now it seems that you are still a little wrong, you should be that kind of ...... People who refuse to give up even when they are desperate. β
"Sounds silly. Yuling was noncommittal.
Nian Yubai pulled a stone bench from the side, sat down and crossed Erlang's legs and said, "I didn't say that, if you're stupid, then we don't have to mess around." I just wanted to say...... Don't put so much pressure on yourself, we have already done what we can and should do, and all that remains is to do our best to obey the destiny of God, which is not something we are willing to change. β
Yuling shook his head and said, "I'm not as open-minded as you. β
"Ha, I thought you were going to call me a lack of eyes. There are too many things you think about, and there are too many responsibilities on yourself, and of course you can't be open-minded. To put it mildly, who do you think you are, why do you have a noble sentiment of worrying about the country and the people for the world? Even if everyone is done playing, it can't be blamed on you. β
"Do you really think of me so noblely?" Yu Ling tugged at the corners of her lips inexplicably.
"Well, I know you don't want to see us die. But when I was very young, I understood a truth, there is always more to lose than to gain, I once tried to protect all the people and things I cared about, but in the end I was too greedy, almost nothing, and then I could only make my heart a little smaller, and care about fewer people, so that life is much easier. You can say I'm selfish, but selfish people are often more comfortable and happy than selfless people, so you also want to open a little bit, it's a big deal that everyone dies together, no one will blame you for not protecting everyone, on the contrary, I think our responsibility should be a little heavier. β
Yu Ling turned his head to look at Nian Yubai, he still looked like he was smiling, as if he had always been carefree and heartless, but Yu Ling knew that what he had experienced was definitely much more bumpy than those teenagers of the same age.
Yu Ling's mind suddenly calmed down a lot, maybe it was Nian Yubai's comfort that had an effect, maybe he had figured out something himself, anyway, this war of the six clans had developed so far, and it was indeed impossible for anyone to predict the final result.
"The snow has melted. Yu Ling glanced down at the ground and said suddenly.
At some point, the temperature in the snow world has risen to freezing, and there has been no snow for a month, which is definitely an abnormal anomaly.
"It seems that whether we want it or not, the snow god is about to wake up. Nian Yu Bai spread his hands.
"I don't know if the alliance of the two clans will have time to break through the Snow Crystal King City before this. Yu Ling frowned slightly.
Half a month ago, after a gap appeared in the area of Changya Mountain and Broken Ridge, the Li Yan and Yan clans took advantage of the situation to attack the hinterland of the Snow Crystal Clan, but the deep valley with the altar was still firmly guarded by tens of thousands of Snow Crystal soldiers relying on the terrain, and Carmonado decisively gave up this place after losing tens of thousands of manpower, and decided to take the Snow Crystal King City first.
"I always feel a little uneasy in my heart, you help me sort out my thoughts. Yuling also sat on the stone bench and said with his chin in his hand.
"Well, you say. β
"The purpose of the Snow Crystal Four Clan should be to find a way to support it for a period of time until the Snow God awakens and descends on the Snow Realm, so they don't need to gain an overwhelming advantage on the battlefield, as long as they hold on. β
"That's right. This is evidenced by the fact that they were losing ground but still in good order, and that there were no mutinies or ruptures. β
"And the Snow God is really coming, and we can't stop it, so our goal is to weaken her foundation as much as possible before then, such as destroying the Snow Crystal King City, and throwing those few Snow God statues into the space mezzanine as we did before the end of winter. β
"So in order to prevent this, the Snow Crystal Four Clans will do their best to defend the Three Clans Royal City, especially the Snow Crystal King City and the deep valley of Changya Mountain. β
"Then the problem is, the snow god will only choose one place to come in the end, and we don't have the ability to capture all four places at once, where do you think the biggest possibility is?"
Nian Yubai blurted out: "Snow Crystal King City, or the deep valley of Changya Mountain." Both of these places may have had altars, which were obscuring each other. Maybe you can't even ...... It is also possible in the Spirit Immortal King City, but this is unlikely, because the Ice Jade Crystal of the Snow Crystal Clan does not seem to be enough to build three large altars. β
That time he went to the underground treasure house of the Snow Crystal Clan, Nian Yubai was still very greedy for the mountain-like blue crystal jade at that time, but after hearing that it was an item that only the Snow Crystal Clan could use, he could only give it up in a huff.
"Maybe the place you missed is the real answer. β
Nian Yubai's eyes widened and said, "You said Black Armor King City, this is impossible!"
"The most unlikely place is often the most likely place, because no one wants to go there. And have you ever thought about a question, why is half of the million-strong army of the Black Armor Clan near the royal city, but not sent to the battlefield? If you really want to compare, in fact, the black armor royal city is the most difficult place to attack among the three cities. β
Nian Yubai was speechless, and said in a serious voice: "Ah Ling, although what you said is very reasonable, but if you guess wrong, we will ......"
"Newspaperβ"
A Soul Clansman hurriedly floated over, and Nian Yu Bai Deng stopped talking and turned to look at him.
I saw that this Soul Clan's soldier said excitedly: "Report to the king, the Snow Crystal King City has been breached by us! Now the Snow Crystal Clan people are hurriedly evacuating to the west and north. β
Then he found that there was no joy or excitement on Yu Ling's face, and he couldn't help but say in confusion: "Your Majesty, why don't you think it......?"
Yu Ling just stood up and said lightly: "It seems that the most likely place we thought was just a pretense, if I guessed correctly, the Snow Crystal Clan strategically abandoned the royal city, their casualties should not be large, right?"
The soldiers of the Soul Clan said ashamedly: "The king is wise, our side has killed more than 50,000 people in the battle and killed 130,000 enemies, of which 100,000 are from the Black Armor Clan...... In addition, more than 100 aircraft were damaged during low-altitude bombing, and the wear and tear of various military equipment was also nearly a quarter ......."
Nian Yubai said distressedly: "It's not Snow Crystal King City...... Is it really?"
"How is it over there in the deep valley of Changya Mountain?" Yu Ling continued to ask.
"The Snow Crystal Clan should have stocked up on military supplies and daily necessities in advance, and they are not overstretched until now. Moreover, the terrain there is really easy to defend and difficult to attack, and it is almost impossible to bomb by aircraft, and it is difficult to break through unless another 100,000 men are mobilized to go over. β
Nian Yubai sighed and said, "Ah Ling, you can't deny that Changya Mountain is also possible. β
"That's right, then withdraw 100,000 men from the front line and attack the deep valley of Changya Mountain. Yuling said lightly.
The soldiers of the Soul Clan were shocked: "Your Majesty, the battle on the front line ......"
"There is no point anymore, the goal of this war from the beginning is not simply to win or lose, even if we kill only one person from the Snow Crystal Clan, maybe we will lose. β
Yu Ling looked at the confused expression of this Soul Clansman, and didn't explain too much, just straightened his robe and walked straight out of the door.
