When Leo returned to Dai Lisa, the civil strife in Ice Bear County had spread throughout the city, and as the initiator, he only learned about the specific situation at this time, and things did not surprise him, Ice Bear County was indeed in chaos at the moment.

After the death of the Grand Duke of Ice Bear, those loyal to the Grand Duke of Ice Bear and others who were hostile to the Grand Duke of Ice Bear started a fight, and both sides did their best to not spare their hands, and finally ended in the victory of the men and horses loyal to the Grand Duke of Ice Bear, after all, they had prepared in advance.

However, although they won, it was not a complete victory, and many hostile nobles fled, including the most important Earl of Snow Deer, who had the qualifications of the first heir, and the highly prestigious president of the Apothecary Society, Ados, and the two of them can be said to be the other nobles who desperately helped escape from Bouvelus.

It was precisely because of the escape of these two that the nobles loyal to the Grand Duke of Ice Bear had not had time to celebrate the victory, and even thought about what to do next, so the Earl of Snow Deer summoned the heirs of the nobles who died in the castle to form an army and crusade against them.

In addition, all the apothecaries, including Buvelus, left their territory, saying that they would not provide any medical assistance to their army and the people in the territory, and also took all the medicine with them, and there was no doubt that in the event of a war, their army would not have a single apothecary.

And a more serious point is that there is no heir in line in their hands, including Earl Snow Deer, Grand Duke Ice Bear has a total of six Grand Duke heirs to the title of Grand Duke, and among these six people, except for Earl Snow Deer, everyone else is in Dai Lisa, that is to say, no matter what their reason is, even if it is to avenge the Grand Duke, they are completely unjustifiable, and there are probably very few people who are willing to follow them.

However, they did not sit still, so they forged the illegitimate son of a Grand Duke, and then elected this so-called illegitimate son of the Grand Duke to become the heir of the Grand Duke and confront Earl Snow Deer, which could make them compete with Earl Snow Deer in a short period of time.

It's just that everyone knows that as long as Count Snow Deer does not die, then he will become a new generation of Ice Bear Grand Duke, even if Count Snow Deer dies, there will be other heirs who can take his place, and the final winner of this Ice Bear County will be Leah Venestein, the queen of Dalyat.

Leo collected a little bit of information in Dai Lisa City, and then didn't take the matter to heart, and went to the room prepared by Leah Vinistan of the Ice Sanctuary.

At this time, Sylvia and Tessa Mocha are in the room, each doing their own thing.

Although it is said to protect Leah Venistan, in fact, after returning to Dai Lisa, the security of the Ice Queen is entrusted to the people she trusts, and the witches are all staying in the Ice Sanctuary, and if something happens, they can also rush to the palace for reinforcements as soon as possible.

Leo didn't surprise them when they arrived, and after hearing about the assassination of the Ice Bear Grand Duke, they estimated that Leo would be back soon, so these days they were busy with their own affairs, and they were collecting all the information related to the Ice Bridge as Leo had instructed.

"Is that all?" Leo looked at the information on the table, and couldn't help frowning, because the information was much less than he expected, and what was more troublesome was that most of these materials were some folklore, and there were only two pieces of information that were really useful, one was the official ice bridge survey report of the Dairiat, and the other was a book written by a Dalyat adventurer, who had walked across the ice bridge once, but only fell back halfway because the path was blocked.

"That's all we can collect now, the rest is in the palace's private library, and Leah promised to send someone to help us sort it out, and it should be delivered in the next day or two. Sylvia explained, handing Leo a copy of the handwriting and saying, "Here are some of the key points that we have compiled after reading these books here for two days, and you can use them as a reference." ”

"Well, that's great!" Leo nodded, then sat down at his desk and began to flip through the materials on the desk, but instead of the adventurer's handwriting as Sylvia suggested, he flipped through the folklore tales related to the ice bridge.

Since Sylvia had marked the stories related to the ice bridge beforehand, he had less time to find the corresponding stories, and he quickly read them all.

Although these stories are not special in the eyes of Sylvia and Tessa Mocha, they are just folklore, but in the face of Leo's strong analytical skills, these folklore have been stripped of some of the story elements, and the rest of the content has a lot of useful information about the specific situation of the ice bridge.

After reading these folklore, Leo picked up two other information books and looked through them, and soon these two materials were also read, and he compared the information sorted out in the folklore with these materials, and after eliminating the parts that were too absurd, there was a lot of content left that were not mentioned in those two special materials.

Contrary to Leo's previous thoughts, the ice bridge he had in mind was just an ice surface formed by the freezing of the sea, but in fact the ice bridge should be called an ice cave.

The cold wind blowing down from the endless ice field in the north is extremely cold in both winter and summer, and the wind speed is extremely fast, and the wind force is beyond imagination, once there was a large fleet chasing fish and inadvertently sailed into the northern ice field area, only the result was directly blown by this cold wind capsized and sank, only one ship was lucky enough to turn around in time and go south with the wind, so it was saved.

When entering the cold wind belt of the northern endless ice field, in the absence of shelter, the average person will not be able to walk in this cold wind for five minutes, even the beasts that grow on the ice field all year round cannot survive under such a fierce cold wind, only a very few moss plants and those tundra creatures that live under the ice and snow can survive.

Because of the cold wind, when the waves are rolling, the water will be frozen in the air, and over time it will form a hollow ice cave, and the volume of the ice cave is very huge, and some will even sink to the bottom of the sea.

Walking inside the ice bridge is not safe, folklore and the adventurer's notes mention that there are some monsters living in the ice cave that will attack any intruder, but these monsters are not the biggest threat, the biggest threat is the uncertainty of the ice bridge.

In general, ice bridges that have formed caverns are very strong and almost impossible to be damaged by external forces, but the weight of the ice bridges will become heavier and heavier due to the accumulation of solid ice attached to the outer layer.

As a result, there will be problems such as settlement, cracks, etc., and once you walk on the ice cave, the results will be fatal.

Moreover, because of the continuous accumulation of years and months, the terrain in the ice cave is like a maze, and the roads are all forks, and if the terrain is not clear, as long as you encounter forks, then you may go the wrong way.

The adventurer who explored the ice bridge was because he took the wrong fork in the road, and as a result, he got lost in the ice bridge, and was trapped for more than ten days, and finally luckily found the right way to escape back, which made him completely give up the idea of continuing to explore the ice bridge, and in the books he published later, he unabashedly expressed that he had developed a fear of the ice bridge.

If the ice bridge was really so dangerous that even professional adventurers couldn't pass through it, then the former ice inhabitants such as the Reynolds here would not have migrated here from the northern ice fields of the Vilun Continent to escape the war.

According to several folklore, the Reynolds seem to have mastered an ability to find the right path in the ice caves, which allowed them to pass through the ice bridge smoothly, and before the Southern Kingdom began to transport prisoners to the northern ice fields, these Reynolds would pass through the ice bridge to the other side every year, robbing the ice tribes there, not only robbing supplies, but also people, which is also clearly recorded in the history of the French Empire in the Vilen continent.

Leo told Sylvia about the Reynolds and asked if there was a way to find information about the Reynolds, but Sylvia couldn't do anything about it, because the last pure-blooded Reynolds had died of illness more than forty years ago, and the Reynolds were completely extinct in the sense of civilization, and the current Reynolds were at best ordinary people with some Reynolds blood, who dressed up as Reynolds and lived in tents just to defraud the kingdom of money and attract tourists.

Tessa Mocha remembered something at this time and suggested: "I remember that there is a Reynolds museum in the city, which has a lot of Reynolds daily necessities and documents left behind, you can go there to see it." ”

Leo nodded, followed the other man's advice, and asked Sylvia if she would go with him.

In this regard, Sylvia also readily agreed to Leo's invitation, and then Leo took off the armor on his body, controlled the aura of sinful karma, and changed into an ordinary traditional Dai Riat costume, while Sylvia also changed into a casual dress.

Just as the two were about to leave the room and head to the city, a court servant walked briskly towards them and told the three in the room that the queen wanted to see them.

Hearing the message from the palace attendants, the three of them looked at each other, and then under the guidance of the attendants, they came to the living room in the palace.

At this time, Leah Venistan was already waiting there, and there were not only witches around her, but also several transcendents and clans who emitted strong energy fluctuations on their bodies, and in one of them, Leo even felt the energy fluctuations of the mother of the nests.

At this moment, there were three boxes on the table, and although the boxes did not indicate what was inside, Leo and the others could still guess what was inside, but what made them wonder why Leah Venistan would take things out in advance.

"I'm very satisfied with what you've done, and these are the rewards we've negotiated before. "Leah Winistan Towards it

Sylvia stepped forward and took the three boxes, opened them and looked at them, except for Leo's two copies of the Tower Wizard's Pharmaceutical Notes, the other two items were placed in a metal box of different sizes.

Leah Venistan explained, "The Faceless Sacred Book and the Mother Tree Seeds are special and need to be contained in this container, and when you take them out, it's best to take them out where no one is around. ”

Sylvia didn't say anything, she knew very well what kind of power her family's holy book contained, it was no exaggeration to say that although it couldn't be compared with the knowledge of the madman thirteen ancient gods, it was not much worse, even her Belmont needed to go through some rituals before she could use this holy book.

Tessa Mocha, on the other hand, had a look of displeasure on her face and said, "You didn't tell me about the seed sprouting before. ”

"You didn't ask me either!" Leah Winistan shrugged her shoulders and said, "And you should know very well how much a mother tree seed that has not sprouted is worth, and do you think what you are doing is worth a mother tree seed?"

Tessa Mocha didn't say anything more in the face of Leah Vinistan's rhetorical question, in fact, she knew from the beginning that there must be a problem with the mother tree seeds provided by Leah Vinistan, but she still had a trace of unrealistic expectations these days, and now it only confirmed her suspicions.

Although the germinated mother tree seeds are not of much value to most people, for her, even if the mother tree seeds germinate, they can still have a great effect on her.

So she didn't continue to pursue the matter, but took the things back into her waist bag.

Leah Vinistein asked, "When are you leaving?" I can arrange for someone to take you to Taniko, which is the closest to the ice bridge. ”

"Don't we need to protect you until you're fully recovered?" Sylvia asked in confusion.

Leah Venistan explained simply, "No, I've found enough men, you three are just in case!"

Sylvia didn't ask, thinking that Leah Venistan didn't need to lie to her about it, but Leo on the side sensed that something was wrong, because what he felt from Leah Venistan was not the possessiveness he felt before, but a kind of vigilance, and the other party seemed to be wary of her.

This puzzled Leo, who wondered why Leah Vinistein's attitude had changed suddenly, but he didn't pay much attention to it, as Leah Vinistan's decision was exactly what he wanted.

So, he thought for a moment and said, "We will leave in the next two days, but before leaving, I hope to be able to consult some information about the ice bridge in your private library, Your Majesty." ”

Hearing this, Leah Venistan thought about it for a moment and nodded, "Yes." ”
