Snow Castle.

"Boom!"

A fireball the size of a bowl fell on the wall made of large black mountain rocks, blasting the dozen or so defenders in front of the city to pieces, and the charred corpses were scattered in all directions by the explosion of air.

A piercing sound sounded in the air, and more than a dozen stainless steel crossbow arrows more than five feet long shot towards Qin Feng's location, but they were still dozens of meters away, and they were blocked by the invisible force, and finally melted into iron juice and fell to the ground, and a large white mist rose from the frozen ground.

Stone eggs the size of a human head were thrown into the sky by trebuchets, drawing a long parabola and smashing down on the city wall, and then bursting open, and the high-speed stone chips still carried terrible lethality, stirring up patches of blood and screams.

The firepower of the besieging army was extremely impressive, and the defenders of Xueyan Fort originally planned to go out of the city to meet the battle, but after Qin Feng's several fire clouds fell into the sky and turned hundreds of soldiers into ashes, the rest of the people did not dare to come out again, closed the city gates, and relied on the still solid city walls to defend them.

In the middle army area, Qin Feng rode on a unicorn and quietly watched as An Long, a strong man in the holy domain beside him, commanded the army to attack the city. The main purpose of this battle is to train troops, and only an army that has really been on the battlefield and has experienced the cruel test of blood and fire is a qualified army.

Therefore, after three months of high-intensity training, Qin Feng began to attack the surrounding area, grabbing territory and sharpening the army under his command at the same time.

Otherwise, although this city was built decently, as long as he personally took action, he would not be able to take it easily with much effort.

Due to the large superiority of the besieging army's troops in terms of numbers and equipment, after more than an hour, the defenders on the city wall suffered more and more casualties, and were gradually suppressed to the point that they could not raise their heads.

According to this trend, it will take at most another half an hour to work and the city gates may fall.

Two still powerful auras rose from the city, and in the next second, Qin Feng saw two figures emitting a blazing fighting aura flying out.

"Is it finally out?"

Qin Feng smiled leisurely, according to the intelligence, these two Sacred Domain powerhouses were the strongest forces in Xueyan Castle, and one of them was the city lord himself.

"Who are you? Why do you want to rob us of our inheritance? ”

City Lord Jerek stared at Qin Feng and asked in a deep voice. He had recognized the other party's identity as a legendary mage, and he knew in his heart that it was impossible for his two brothers to resist each other.

Even without Qin Feng's existence, the five thousand heavily armed and well-trained troops outside the city were still not something that the city could withstand, not to mention that the commander of the army was also a holy domain, and there was another great mage to help.

Jerrick really couldn't understand why there were legendary powerhouses in such a bitter cold place far away from the bustling area in the center of the continent? With their noble status, the world is so big that there are so many good places to choose from.

"I've got my eye on this place,"

Qin Feng glanced at him and said lightly: "So, surrender or die!" Decide for yourself! ”

"You ......"

Jerrick's tone was suffocated, and the other party's attitude was simple and straightforward, which meant that there was no longer room for negotiation. The absolute strength is there, if he has such an advantage, I am afraid that he will not have the patience to bargain with the weaker side.

An Long said: "My Royal Highness is at the time of employing people, as long as you surrender, you can not blame the past, and your status and property can be preserved, but you have to go to other places to serve." How to decide, you can do it yourself. ”

Jerry groaned slightly, and the desire to survive finally prevailed, and finally said, "We are willing to surrender." ”

An Long smiled, he followed Qin Feng out this time, and took four cities before and after, all of which killed the original ruling class in the city, and this was the first one who was willing to surrender.

In fact, he understood in his heart what Qin Feng meant, the retention of too much of the old ruling power is undoubtedly detrimental to the future development of the new regime, of course, it is not good if there is no one who is willing to surrender, and now this is the most suitable.

Xueyan Fort is also one of the few forces in the Black Frost Rock Mountain Range, and the area that can control and influence is almost equivalent to a half-viscount, after taking this place, it will be connected with the original territory, and if Qin Feng now has a relatively large marquisdom.

Then the army entered the city, and with the cooperation of Jerek, successfully took over all the defenses of the city.

In the City Lord's Mansion, Qin Feng summoned the pair of Sacred Domain brothers.

"You can serve as mid- and high-level commanders in my army, and you should be treated in accordance with your status. However, you have to accept a magical servitude contract for a period of three years, after which you can decide to stay. ”

As he spoke, he took out two magic scrolls and placed them in front of them.

Jerek and his younger brother Moya glanced at each other and nodded helplessly, since they had already succumbed once, it would be difficult to continue to be tough.

After the contract was completed, Qin Feng began to inquire about the situation in the city, internal political security, taxation and military affairs, and the surrounding situation were not left behind, although these things were detailed and cumbersome, but he was not impatient, and talked carefully with the other party for more than three hours before it ended.

He has done this kind of homework many times, and he will have to continue to do it in the future, which is a necessary quality for politicians.

When the two of them retreated and left, a mage next to him, who was wrapped in a thick black robe and deliberately restrained his breath, stepped forward and lifted the hood on his head, revealing a beautiful face that had captivated the country and the city.

"Alright, my lord, now let's take a look at your new territory."

Aaron said with a smile, took out the magic sand table from the dimensional space bracelet, activated it, and adjusted it for a while, and the high-definition image map near the Black Frost Rock Mountain Range appeared.

Among them, the areas under the control of Qin Feng's forces have all turned a faint blue, regardless of the size of the population, only the land area, which is equivalent to two marquisates in the prosperous area of the empire.

The mountains, rivers, cities, villages and towns on the map are clearly visible, and you can zoom in and out of specific areas at will. Even a tree or a stone outside a village is clearly marked.

"Speaking of which, I still don't understand, surveying and mapping and making magic maps is a very costly and laborious thing, especially this kind of barren mountains and mountains that are not set foot by big forces, but you actually have a full set of magic image maps around the Black Frost Rock Mountain Range here, and they are all the highest level, how did you do it?"

The beautiful tutor asked puzzled. The Star World does not have the satellite telesensing and control technology of the Overworld, although the magic of legendary mages and some high-end alchemy instruments can do the same thing, but the scope is much smaller, and the cost is still high.

Such a poor and remote land is not a strategic place, and some special rare strategic resources have not been found, even those big forces are unwilling to spend resources to carry out surveying and mapping here.

Therefore, Aaron felt unbelievable, with her understanding, such a large-scale magic map mapping and production must have the participation of a large number of legendary mages, with the help of high-end alchemy instruments It took several years to complete, and the cost was not tens of thousands of magic crystals.

This is not difficult to understand, in the main world, the cost of high-precision satellite remote sensing tracking and control is also not cheap, especially the technical threshold is extremely high, except for a few big hooligans, the vast majority of countries are not qualified to play.

Qin Feng explained with a smile: "The map information, of course, was obtained from the Magic Guild, and I can't change it myself. ”

He did ask the Magic Guild to do this, but only to get an extremely simple and rough map, which was mapped and made more than 700 years ago, which obviously did not meet the demand. Fortunately, with the help of intelligent unmanned exploration ships, within a few days, a magic image map accurate to the millimeter level was born from the hands of experts in the half-plane.

"Only by believing in you can you have ghosts."

Aaron gave him a seductive look, and she realized that she was getting more and more unable to see through this guy.
