Chapter 439: Intermission
After many years of absence, Lu Bin returned to the north again, and slowly landed on the snake ridge of the Storm Mountain Peak, his thin figure was all bleak, he looked down at the Fryton Territory he had built with his own hands, and the prosperity of Riverrun City was as good as ever.

Thor Tyrese was the first to discover the return of his acquaintance, and directly tore through the barriers of space and appeared beside Lu Bin, like an unfathomable abyss, which made the lord of the northern realm feel extremely unfamiliar. He was keenly aware of the breath of blood and fire, and after looking directly into Lu Bin's eyes, it was even more intense, and it couldn't be dissolved at all.
"In just ten years, what have you experienced in a strange world? You have transformed into an existence side by side with me, and I don't feel the signs of your godhood at all!"
Lu Bin withdrew his aggressive gaze, restrained his breath, and disguised himself as a safe and harmless ordinary person. It's a pity that the ability to send and receive freely has made Thor's Tyrese more and more careless.
Fortunately, neither of them showed hostility, and with the affection accumulated in the past, they could still maintain the normal state of peaceful coexistence, just like two hedgehogs with spikes, approaching while maintaining a certain distance.
Lu Bin felt the ubiquitous elemental tides, but due to his own inhalation not long ago, the concentration seemed to have decreased, especially in the vast desert area of the northern realm, where the caster had to learn to adapt to the new environment close to the Death Demon Zone.
"The elemental tide is coming, and the mages are rising as a whole, but I don't feel any signs of a new mage leader being born. In this way, the aristocracy still holds the greatest power. I'm so disappointed that a lifeless pool of stagnant water, with the most powerful and violent mages, can't shake the order of the North?"
As the apex of the North, Thor Tyrese instinctively maintains the ruling order for the sake of profit, and naturally justifies the upper nobles: "The additional vitality brought about by the abolition of slaves in Riverrun, the expansion of the consumer market, and the increase in trade volume have all been imitated by the various territories in the North. The aristocracy is not a dead brain, and they quickly learn to be flexible in the face of the greater good. ”
Lu Bin smiled slightly: "Abolition of slavery? This is just a small step in social change, and the resulting innovation in the productive forces will certainly bring about both good and bad effects." I'd like to hear the bad news first, okay?"
Thor's Tyrese sent this time was just an incarnation, a "mage warrior" who was good at cross-border combat and mastered the elemental realm, and he was stunned for a moment for the request of Lu Bin, who seemed to be a friend and foe, and then the true body of the body hidden in the outer realm came with relevant knowledge.
"Most of the freed slaves did not adapt to their new life very quickly, and without the whip of the overseers and slave owners, the laziness of their nature began to flar up. Many people, after gaining freedom, lose their self-control and squander their meager wealth and become destitute bankrupts. They are at the bottom of society, and their quality of life is even worse than that of slavery in the past. At least, as the property of slave owners, they can still live like dogs, with kennels, dog food, and after becoming free people, they are not even as good as dogs. ”
Lu Bin had been mentally prepared for this for a long time, and nodded lightly: "As society changes, people's hearts must also change." To be physically free, they have to smash the shackles of mental slavery. These are the throes of the abolition of slavery, and I can understand it. ”
Thor Tyrese still had a lot to say, but he noticed in time that his friends around him had faded away from the inhuman horror and gradually gained a bit of human flavor, so he wisely shut up.
"Riverrun City was built with my own hands, and this is my home, the harbor of my soul. I'll stay in town for a few days and continue my new journey. ”
Thor Tyrese smiled with satisfaction, after all, he had just picked up a friendship and received a promise from a partner who was not below him.
"By the way, I want to ask you something that would otherwise be difficult to talk about. In that mysterious world, you once summoned my doppelganger, and promised to summon it again in the future. It's a pity that after a long time, you didn't make a call, and the four-axis coordinates of space-time that you once got lost the function of positioning. I wonder, what's going on?"
Lu Bin couldn't help but take a deep breath, "I'm very sorry! I was forced to take the initiative to participate in a divine power order change war that affected the entire plane, and your strength was relatively unqualified, so I didn't drag you into the water." Just remember that at the critical moment, I personally buried the opposing camp and became the final winner. ”
Thor Tyrese didn't continue to ask, because he knew enough information now that he had to deduce everything in the light of his own experience.
"Welcome home, old friend!"
Lu Bin lowered his arms and gently bowed his head to the avatar of the Northern Lord: "Thank you! ”
Unexpectedly, Thor Tyrese directly hugged him fiercely: "Since we are friends, we don't need to be so polite, it's too outward!"
There was no defense, no counterattack, which meant that Lu Bin trusted the Northern Lord. At least in this world, in the vast north, only Thorgod Tyrese can talk and laugh with Lu Bin. Others, even the Mage Lord Felix, the master who had entered the realm of legends, were not qualified.
Seeing the incarnation of Thor's Tyres leaving, Lu Bin turned around and took a step, and instantly appeared in the Eagle Castle in Riverrun, where the housekeeper Nock found that the runaway master had returned from a long trip, and screamed excitedly, throwing out a hundred arcane fireworks in a row, before venting his joy and crying.
Lu Bin returned to the spotless residence again, and kept the appearance of leaving untouched, without increasing or decreasing, knowing that the house guard elf had not failed him.
"Thank you, Nock! I feel better to see you're still around. ”
The housekeeper flew to Lu Bin's shoulders and held his ears with both hands: "It's not just me, but Nina Wild, the mother of Aurelia. ”
"Nina Wild, has I taken back all that I have given her, and still retains her loyalty? Even if you are a mere mortal, you can make up the last ticket. Nock, summon her to come. ”
The housekeeper immediately snapped his fingers, and out of nowhere, he conjured a sounding stone, the size of a palm, shaped like a bull's horn, with countless holes like a beehive at both ends. Nock said a few words to the thicker end of it, and a piercing scream came from the other end, and even from a distance, Lu Bin could hear a strange and familiar voice.
"After the elemental tide was raised, the rise of the mage was really expected, and even the magic items used for sound transmission were developed, which really made me happy. ”
The housekeeper nodded desperately, obviously benefiting from it, but he did not expect that the news that Nina Wild had come to Eagle Castle would make such a big fuss.
Most of the high-ranking officials of Riverrun City came to Eagle Castle, except for those who really couldn't leave, or envoys who were outside, they all came to meet the city lord who had returned home.
Lu Bin just glanced at it, and saw that there were a dwarf master master from Ironforge Castle, a dwarf illusionist from the dungeons of the Dark Regions, an elven master who was respected for his mastery of the power of spells, and an elite guard reserved by himself, Orelia the Windranger who was guarding him, holding a half-elf child in simple clothes.
The close connection from the blood kinship made Lu Bin aware of his flesh and blood for the first time, unlike the three giants of the fourth generation of the divine court in another world, the half-elf little boy was an extension of the bloodline, rather than conforming to the requirements of the origin of the world, under the premise of temptation or coercion, and the gods born with the goddesses.
"Lord of the Castle...... Excellency...... Your Highness"
The high-level officials of Rushing City screamed indiscriminately, and Lu Bin stretched out his hand to stop them unhurriedly, so he could only open the door and invite his old friends in.
Due to the large number of people, the main building of Eagle Fort was relatively narrow, Lu Bin's eyes suddenly lit up, he reached out to grab something, and then slowly pulled it out: "I said, the room is too narrow to withstand too many guests." ”
Entering the upper floors of Rushing City where the city lord lived, he was shocked to find that the living room with an area equivalent to an ordinary apartment building had turned into a deep and quiet hall in the blink of an eye, and the visible parts had expanded nearly fifty times, and more parts had to be at least doubled.
"Great Prophecy...... Presence ...... Space folding"
The guests here and now, seeing a miraculous scene with their own eyes, fell into great confusion, but they all understood that the city lord, who had traveled for ten years, would become even more unfathomable when he returned, and they couldn't help but hold their breath.
The house guard elf Nock reacted the fastest, he trusted Lu Bin's actions 100%, stretched out his hand and snapped his fingers, all kinds of cushioned backrest seats immediately appeared, and a long table covered with white cloth quietly appeared. Snap your fingers again, and a variety of delicacies appear on the table.
Lu Bin nodded lightly with satisfaction, he found that the housekeeper elf Nok had been infiltrating the elemental tide for many years, and he had slowly upgraded on his own. He has become smarter, his mana is stronger, and he can do more things than he expected.
"Aurelia......!
Lu Bin stretched out his hand to greet him, the windwalker back then, with tears in his eyes, but he forcibly held back, and with a half-elf child in one hand, he came to the side of the master of Rushing City.
The housekeeper elf Nock immediately conjured up a gorgeous backrest seat for the housemaster to sit down, Lu Bin looked at Aurelia who had not lost her appearance: "Over the years, you have worked hard." ”
Aurelia didn't reply, just kept wiping her tears, and the half-elf child next to her glared at Lu Bin angrily, as if she was angry that he had made her cry mother.
Lu Bin looked at the little guy angrily and funny, without any expression, just turned his head to look around, and said, "Everyone, please take a seat." You're welcome, in my home though, casual. ”
No one dared not listen to his words, after all, everyone present had seen the city lord's extraordinary means of expanding the space at will, even if he stepped into the legendary master of the world, he might not be able to do it so easily.
In other words, the city lord of Riverrun, the lord of the Fryton Lord, there is only one reasonable explanation for the realm at this time.
The Archon Oryk Tyrese, who had entered the prime of life, leaned forward cautiously: "Father came not long ago, and left in a hurry. ”
Lu Bin immediately understood the true meaning hidden in this friend's words: "I have met His Highness Tyrese once, and his body is still very strong. ”
The high-level executives of Rushing City present suddenly breathed a sigh of relief with relief, and the turbulent undercurrent disappeared in an instant, making Lu Bin couldn't help but want to laugh.
"Nina, come here!"
