Chapter 122 The Ice Empress and the Wandering Mage
Nestled within a deep blue square icicle, the Blackstone Fortress is like its cold fortress walls, ruling all the villages and tribes of Freljord in the Northland with chains and ruthlessness.
Here, all living creatures must unconditionally submit to the Ice Empress, the Frost Guard is the Ice Empress's most powerful scepter, and the Ice Empress is the Ice Empress's highest reward for obeying her clan.
Zhen Bing means strength, and strength means survival.
No one knows how the Ice was made by the Ice Empress, but the Freljords who surrendered to the Ice Empress knew that only the Ice Descendants who obtained the Ice Warrior could fight their way out of this lifeless Jedi.
Within a radius of 100 miles, even the ferocious bear people who believed in the ancient gods would stay away from this frozen fortress, as if there was really some terrible existence in the fortress, which also made the tribes living around the Frostguard Fortress worship the Ice Empress even more.
In their opinion, only the Ice Empress can bring strong hope to Freljord, so they willingly submit to the Ice Queen's rule, and are willing to send the Ice Maiden of their tribe to the Frostguard Fortress to serve the Ice Empress and learn frost magic from the Ice Queen.
Even when the passionate and lovely daughters return, they will become cold and ruthless ice sorceresses.
Correspondingly, the Ice Empress will also send her Ice Descendant Sorceress to various parts of her realm to maintain the Ice Queen's majesty and rule, and by the way, it is only natural to expel some trolls or bearmen.
As for the powerful tribes that are unwilling to submit to the Ice Queen's rule, such as the Winterclaw tribe in the south or the Avarosa tribe, they will naturally not receive any support from the Ice Queen, and of course, they do not need to send the girl with the blood of the Ice Descendant to the Frostguard Fortress, and they will be able to support themselves, and self-reliance is their only option.
In the Freljord Icefield, where power reigns supreme, the Ice Empress is the most powerful ruler of all.
Although he also understood all the information collected from Freljord's mouth, it was not until he was escorted to the Frostguard Fortress by the tough Frost Guard that Ruiz experienced first-hand what it means to be domineering.
Fortunately, Ruiz himself was not a bad temper, and the leather armor-clad Frost Guard had no intention of taking the scroll leather bag, and the obedient wandering mage allowed the two of them to escort him into the majestic gate of the Frost Guard Fortress and through the fortress corridor.
Eventually, under the escort of the guards, Ryze arrived at the Ice Empress's residence, the Eternal Ice Palace.
The dark blue ice crystal hall exuded a chilling aura, and even Ruiz himself felt a chill in this place that was enough to freeze the air, but fortunately, he was temporarily sure that there was nothing he was looking for here, so he didn't have to think about starting a war with the Ice Queen.
Then, he saw the Ice Empress sitting on the Ice Throne, wearing a dark blue ornate robe and an ice blue crystal mask.
On either side behind the Ice Empress were two Ice Descendant Warlocks wearing magical cloaks and holding Ice Staffs.
"Stand down."
The Ice Empress's voice was majestic and ruthless, and without looking at the bumpy body with her voice alone, Ruiz couldn't even find a trace of the 'human' in front of her that belonged to a human woman.
This voice seems to be a piece of blue ice that will not melt for thousands of years, this woman who does not know how long she has lived, is also beautiful and deadly.
"Yes."
The two frost guards who let go of Ryze's arms knelt down on one knee and saluted, then got up and bowed, and slowly moved backwards towards the empress, until they reached the gate of the ice palace, and the two guards straightened up completely, turned and left through the side door.
The Ice Descendant Warlock guarding the gate of the Ice Palace raised her staff, and the five-meter-high Ice Gate slowly closed, which made Ruiz look back with a wry smile on her face. After the frost guard went out, the Ice Empress waved her hand and motioned for the Ice Maidens who were guarding the Ice Palace to also leave through the side door.
Except for the Empress, only high-ranking dignitaries have the right to walk through the main gate, and Ruiz, who has just understood this, observes everything in front of her, and seems to understand why the Ice Empress values herself very much, but allows the two frost guards to 'invite' her over in an offensive way.
This may be some kind of warning......
Soon, only the mage with a complicated expression and the empress on the throne were left in the main hall of the Ice Palace.
There was silence for a few seconds, and the Ice Empress's voice was ethereal and cold.
"The civilization of Hailia has disappeared in the long river of history, and Fuguang Island has been reduced to the island of shadows at this time, and has become the cradle of ghasts.
It was you who spread the news of the world's runes throughout the world, and the world was traumatized by it, with countless people wailing and dying, and shadows laughing wildly in the shadows......
I call you sinners of the world, and I think you are not qualified to deny it.
Mage Tyruth's apprentice, Mage Ryze, I've heard about you and know what you've been looking for, and I can tell you that I don't have what you're looking for, and the Great Iceborn doesn't need glittering stones to help us overcome the harsh environment of Freljord, and the Ice of the Northland is more than enough to handle anything.
I can allow you to walk in this land, but I will never allow you to cause any large-scale riots, wanton killing lives, this is my promise to you, and it is also the bottom line that you must remember, beyond the bottom line, you will become the enemy of Freljord, and this cold land will never die with you. ”
Knowing that the Rune War was inseparable from the secret society he was involved in, Ruiz said with a wry smile.
"I am not a murderer, and it is not my intention to kill, please rest assured.
For that thing......
Although it is contrary to our original intention, it turned out that it was because of our negligence that we leaked the news, which caused so much trauma to the world, and I and several other mages are deeply sorry for this, it is not a pity to die, but mistakes always need to be borne by the living, this is the only thought I have in life......"
Ruiz bowed slightly and said the last word.
"Excuse me, Ice Queen."
"Master Ruiz, don't send it."
Straightening up, the mage turned away without hesitation.
The Empress raised her hand, and the Ice Gate opened again, and Ryze's body paused, but she still walked towards the side door and left straight through the side door.
The empty ice gate closed again, sighed, the Ice Empress stood up, staring at the empty cold ice palace, the Empress took off the crystal mask on her face, revealing a beautiful and delicate face like ice,
The only flaw is that the woman's eyes are covered by dark blue silk blinders, so that people can't see what kind of stunning eyes are under the silk blindfolds.
The woman sighed lowly, and her voice was no longer as low and majestic as before, and became ethereal and pure, like the purest girl.
Will the world usher in his own end? Who knows what I am carrying? ”
Looking down at her feet, the Empress silently put on her mask again, as if on the edge of an abyss.
"Weakness will only make persistence worthless......"
